NO Records In Result Set When Non-alphanumerics Are Used In Search Criteria
Nov 5, 1999
I'm trying to figure out why I am not getting any result set back from a search that includes non-alphanumeric
or non-printable characters. For instance, if I have a table with a 20 character name column with names with
beginning ranges from A-Z, why doesn't the following return any rows:
select * from table where name < CHAR(126).
In the ASCII character set, 126 is a tilde (~) which is numerically above the alphanumeric ranges 1-9,a-z, and
A-Z. Shouldn't all records that sort lower in the character range be included in the result set ?
I'm assuming this has something to do with the default collation sequence being used which somehow does
not include characters outside the alphanumeric range. Any ideas ?

I am very new to sql programming. I have a database with 15 columns. At this moment I do this to get all rows containing the year 2013:
WHERE DATEPART (yyyy, DownloadDate) = 2013 .
But I also want to add a criteria so that I can have all rows where DownloadDate contains 2013 AND WHERE IsRead(BIT) contains NULL. I tried this:
WHERE DATEPART(yyyy, DownloadDate) = 2013 AND IsRead = null .
But this gave me nothing!

I have four criterias in my .aspx page. They are "First Name, Last Name, Title, Year". I have a Book and an Author table. The Author table would contain all the author's information and the Book table contains all the books information such as title, publisher, subject, and so on. So here's what I'm trying to do.
I want to write a transaction statement that will query the four criterias above if the criteria textbox is not black. So for example, when the user click the submit button, all the four criteria fields are filled except Year. That means the query would search the Author and Book tables for "First Name, Last Name, Title" but not "Year" for any potential matches. I also wanted to use "Like" instead of "=" for a wider search.
Actually I'm trying to create a store procedure that will accept those four criterias and search the tables based on those criterias.
Any help is appreciated.

dear friend,
the problem i am finding is moreover a concatenation problem
what i did is that have stored procedure which is accepting any character and i have to show all the records where this character is existing
it is like this only
********************************
name1 like '% @str %'
but then it is not treating the str as a variable and treating it as a string so if you have any solution please let me know early
please give the answer with example
waiting for reply

I am working on SQL Server in VB 2008. I have a table 'Records' having 8 columns. I have a search page where I can choose 5 different parameters to search as 'Category' , 'Name' , 'Date' etc.
I can successfully search with a single criteria selected either Category Name Or Date. But I want to create a single SQL command that can search my 'Records' table for either two or all the parameters depending on the selections made by the user.

I am trying to set up a query that will allow the user to input a string, and the search will match ANY word in that string. Currently, I have it configured so that the search will only match the exact string that the user inputs. I have google searched for the answer, but no luck yet. Any ideas?

Say I have a query like
DECLARE @ID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER, @SOMEDATE DATE
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE ID = @ID AND DATEFIELD=@SOMEDATE
I want to pass values to @ID and @SOMEDATE, such that it meets the WHERE criteria for all values in the respective fields.
What parameter value should I pass such that all values are selected? In the actual SP, I have uniqueidentifier, varchar and date parameters.

My selection criteria is as follows:
where content like '%EditLiveJava%'
or content like '% Sys__%' ESCAPE '_'
or content like '%<div class="row"/>%'
or content like '%<a href="" title=""%'
or content like '%cmsprod%'
or content like '%Error processing inline link%'
or content like '%see log for stack trace%'
I output the content field if the search is true but would like to also output which specific 'like' has been found.
Can I do this in the one pass or do I have to read the database separately for each condition?

Say I want to search for a range of account numbers but only which are active. After I set my field for A (active) this field shows in my results, I dont want it to.
In Access you can easily just uncheck that field in design view, but how do I do it in sql?

Hi,
Slightly knotty and hard-to-articulate problem here, so please bear with me.
As part of a series of transactions, I have a table which contains data which looks like this:
AdBookingID adWeeks AdID clientId valueid
----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
97336 3 95127 248 1007
98220 1 94304 458 1007
98220 1 94304 458 7610
98386 1 88123 319 7604
98388 1 91484 319 7610
98390 1 91963 319 7610
98392 1 92468 319 7601
98392 1 92468 319 7608
The key to this problem is the "valueID". The first digit of the value is significant - the "1" and the "7" in the above mean the values are parts of different groups of search criteria.
What I need to do is to select from this list into a temp table all those bookings (identified by AdBookingID) which have valueIds of both types - i.e. an row in the table where the valueId starts with a 1 and a row in the table where the valueId starts with a 7 - in the above data sample the only AdBooking which qualifies is 98220.
I worked out a method of doing this going by the number of entries each item had in the table:
select count(distinct valueId)
as valueId, adWeeks, clientId, adID, AdBookingID
into #worktable
from #tmp
group by adWeeks, clientId, adID, AdBookingID
having count(distinct valueid) > 1
Which is largely accurate. But - and here's the killer - although each adBooking can only have one valueId starting with 1, it can have multiple entries starting with 7. These bookings are rare, but they do exist and are causing anomalies in the data returned which - if you recall - must only contain booking records for which there are valueId entries with both a 1 and a 7.
Can anyone suggest a way I can get just the data I need?
Cheers,
Matt

I have regular work that requires me to extract a bunch of customer records from our database, and then remove duplicate address destinations (so we dont mail the same address more than once).
I can currently achieve this using a combination of my poor SQL skills and Excel, but it's really not working out for me, so looking for SQL wizardry necessary to do it just in SQL.
Relevant fields:
Member.AddressBarcode (This is a unique barcode (Text representation of a base-3 number) based on the customer address. So if there's more than one record in the pulled records with the same barcode, we then look at Member.MemberTypeID to determine whether to include this record in the results or discard it as a duplicate. Note that AddressBarcode may be blank if the mailing address couldn't be validated, if it is blank we don't discard it since there is no easy way to detect duplicate addresses without the barcode)
Member.MemberTypeID (This is the type of member account. We have 3 types - Single, Joint Primary, Joint Secondary, represented in this field by the numbers 1/2/3. This is also the order of preference of who to mail. So if there is a Joint Primary and Joint Secondary with the same mailing barcode, we want to discard the Joint Secondary from the results, so that the Joint Primary is the record we include in the results of who to mail.)
Member.ID (Unique numeric ID for each customer. Kind of irrelevant here, but it's a key)
So some pseudo code for what I'm trying to achieve is:
(Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 3 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
I suspect it requires some sort of join...

I'm fairly new in SQL. Been trying for months to create the right script for this particular case but still cannot give me 100% result as required.
SCENARIO :
I am required to query from 2 tables for those unique record that meets both conditions below:-
1. Status is 1 @ max (trans_id), paychnl = CC
2. Status is 2 @ max (trans_id), paychnl = A or B
FYR, 2 tables and respective columns to query are as below:-
table PTFF --> col ID, TRANS_ID,TRANSDATE,EFFDATE,TRANSCODE
table CHFF --> col STATUS,PAYCHNL
FYI, status refers to the paychnl method status:-
==> 1 means the current paychnl method
==> 2 means the previous paychnl method
paychnl method can be multiple because it will be defined as 2 for all the histories' paychnl chosen earlier, but 1 should only be unique as it is the latest paychnl chosen for each unique ID. however, it may appear more than once when it's taking those in earlier TRANSDATE, so here we would need the max trans_id as it will show the latest updated TRANSDATE.
Apart from that, I need only those most recent paychnl to be A or B and the latest paychnl is CC so, this been indicated by the same max trans_id for the same ID.
Aft trying so many times on this MAX command but failed to get any result, I only managed to come up to this part only. please refer below:-
table PTFF --> col ID, TRANS_ID,TRANSDATE,EFFDATE,TRANSCODE
table CHFF --> col STATUS,PAYCHNL
SELECT DISTINCT PTFF.TRANSCODE,PTFF.ID,PTFF.TRANS_ID,PTFF.TRANSDATE,PTFF.EFFDATE, CHFF.STATUS,CHFF.PAYCHNL
FROM DBO.PTFF PTFF
JOIN DBO.CHFF CHFF
ON CHFF.ID = PTFF.ID
WHERE
PTFF.TRANSDATE BETWEEN 130501 AND 130831
AND PTFF.TRANSCODE='T522'
AND (CHFF.STATUS=1 AND CHFF.PAYCHNL='CC' OR (CHFF.STATUS=2 AND (CHFF.PAYCHNL='A' OR CHFF.PAYCHNL='B')))
However, the script above returns :-
1. All those records with STATUS 1 regardless paychnl is A or B in most recent status 2,
2. Expected results also appear ==> 1 same ID with status 1 while paychnl=CC and status 2 while paychnl=A or B
3. Also duplicates of expected results but for different TRANSDATE and not at MAX TRANS_ID
Samples of the result:-

I have an 'update' query that looks like this:
update wce_contact
set blank = 'missing'
where website in ('www.name1.co.uk','www.name2.co.uk','www.name3.co.uk')
I know this query will set 'blank' to missing when it matches the above websites. However if i wanted to set blank to 'missing' where mail1date is not null and mail2date is not null (keep going to mail18date not null) how exactly would i go about this?
I guess it would be a case of adding another bracket somewhere but im unsure?

Hi All,Sorry if the subject line is too obscure -- I couldn't think of a wayof describing this request.I have a table that contains approximately 1 million records.I want to be able to be able to select the top x records out of thistable matching variable criteria.Pseudo table records:custid, category, segment1,1,12,1,13,1,14,1,15,1,26,1,27,1,28,1,29,2,110,2,111,2,112,2,113,2,214,2,215,2,216,2,217,2,318,2,319,2,320,2,3So, what I'm trying to do is return a recordset, for example, thatcontains the top 2 of each variation of category and segment.ie:1,1,12,1,15,1,26,1,29,2,110,2,113,2,214,2,217,2,318,2,3The only way I can think to achieve this is in a while statement,performing individual selects against each combination, feeding thewhere criteria by variables that I automatically increment.I can't help thinking there's a much more graceful way of achievingthis?If anyone can give me any insight into this I'd be incrediblyappreciative!Many thanks in advance!Much warmth,Murray

When querying a bit field, I am encountering a problem with MS SQLServer returning a larger number of records for a table than theactual number of records that exist within that table.For example, my customer table has 1 million unique records, so theresults of the following query are as such:select count(customer_nbr) from customer = 1,000,000There is bit field in the customer table that denotes whether acustomer has placed an order with us called. That flag is calledorder_flagIf I run the following query:select count(customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1The result is 3,000,000 records.There is no logical way that this is possible, as my table onlycontains 1,000,000 unique records and the number of customers with anorder should be a subset of this.If a run the above query with a distinct before customer number, I getthe results I want:select count(distinct customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1600,000 records.So while I can get to the answer I want, I have no idea why I amreturning incorrect values if I don't select distinct.Can anyone help? I checked microsoft support and message boards buthaven't seen anything.I should note that the bit field is indexed.I am not sure if that isthe problem or not.

sqlAdapter1.Fill(ds, "ds");
CollectionPager1.DataSource = ds.Tables["ds"].DefaultView;
CollectionPager1.BindToControl = DataList1;
DataList1.DataSource = CollectionPager1.DataSourcePaged;
}
My problem is when there is no result(no item in database), the DataList1 will display the text "some text will display here" instead of empty page.
In FormView I know the option <EmptyDataTemplate>. But in the DataList I don't know how to do this. I am a beginner.
Can anybody show me how....Thanks a lots

In Sql Server 2005 Express I have this table:CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Sections](
[SectionID] [int] NOT NULL,
[DocumentNo] [smallint] NULL,
[SequenceNo] [smallint] NULL,
[SectionNo] [smallint] NULL,
[DocumentTypeID] [smallint] NULL,
[SectionText] [ntext] NULL)
Each paragraph of text (SectionText) is in its own row
(SectionNo) Each primary document has a DocumentTypeID of 1 with
three subdocument types (2=Index, 3=Background, 4=Report).I run this query and return a collection of single rows from various documents grouped together by DocumentNo: SELECT *
FROM Sections
WHERE CONTAINS (SectionText, 'exercise')
ORDER BY DocumentNo
For each row that contains the search term, I would like to
return the full document (all rows as parapraphs within one row of
returned data). In other words, I want to reconstitute the full
document as it existed prior to being inserted into the database with
paragraph separation. For exampe, if the search term is in row 3
of DocumentNo=5, DocumentTypeID=2, I want to return all the rows of
that document in one block of text that retains paragraph format
(preferablly with a line break and carriage return between
paragraphs). How can this be done?

Hi,
I have to search the records after the records populated.
I mean to say, i have displayed records in report, if i enter some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular records, instead of highlighting the values, is it possible to display only those particular records.
For example, say i have 50 records in a page,i entered some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular 5 records one by one which match the criteria i have entered in the texbox, instead of that i have to display only those 5 records.
Please tell me how to implement in this report,

I have a query below which filters detail field in the #TempLogins table. The details field is a text field which contains many types of text strings, some containing urls that have parts like "ResultID=5" which is what is contained in the ResultIDSearch and ResultSetIDSearch fields. The records with entries like "ResultID=5" are the ones I'm trying to filter for.
The problem I have is that the query takes way too long to run. The TempLogin table has around 200 K records and the TempSearch table has around 80 K records.
select * from #TempLogins a where exists
(select 1 from #TempSearch t1 where
a.detail like '%' + t1.ResultIDSearch + '%'
or
a.detail like '%' + t1.ResultSetIDSearch + '%')

For example, consider the following queries:
DECLARE @SomeParam INT
SET @SomeParam = 44
SELECT *
FROM TableA A
JOIN TableB B ON A.PrimaryKeyID = B.ForeignKeyID
WHERE B.SomeParamColumn = @SomeParam
SELECT *
FROM TableA A
JOIN TableB B ON A.PrimaryKeyID = B.ForeignKeyID AND B.SomeParamColumn = @SomeParam
Both of these queries return the same result set, but the first query filters the results in the WHERE clause whereas the the second query filters the results in the JOIN criteria. Once upon a time a DBA told me that I should always use the syntax of the first query (WHERE clause). Is there any truth to this, and if so, why?
Thanks.

Hello I am trying to create a stored procedure where the users can either type in the last name, or a wild card in order to get the values they are looking for. Sometimes they are not sure how to spell the last name and they will type in the first 2 letters or an * for all to see if they can find it that way. How can I do this??
Here is what I have so far
Code Block
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[AdvSearchRevocations]
(@Enter_LastName nvarchar(25))
AS
SET @Enter_LastName = REPLACE(@Enter_Lastname, '*', '%')
SELECT LastName, FirstName, ReasonOfRevocation, TM#, [I/R #], Date
FROM dbo.Revocations_Tbl

I have to create a search textbox where if i key in the word "dog",it will search against a field called "Name" in a table.Then it will return all records where the text/data in the "Name" field contains the word "dog".For example,it will return the records where the text/data in the "Name" field has words such as "hotdog","doggie","dog barking","big dog" etc etc.
Can i use simple SQL for this or do i need to configure the full text search service on SQL server 2000 and use the FREETEXT predicate?Thank you in advance for any replies.
