We've just installed SQL Server 2000 on one of our servers and have
noticed a strange behavior. When clicking the column headings in the
job display in Enterprise Manager, the list is sorted (first click
ascending, then descending) on the column clicked except for "Next Run
Date." When we click on "Next Run Date," the list is reordered, but
randomly. Each time we click it we get a different order but never
ascending or descending. This is true whether we're at the server or
on a remote machine. We never saw this behavior with SQL Server 7.0.
Hi, I hope I can explain what I am trying to achieve (in MS SQL Server): The results set that shows Names and Dates (plus others, but not relevant here), that needs to be sorted by Date and then by name. I have tried: ORDER BY date, surname, forename (gives dates in right order but not names) and ORDER BY surname, forename, date (gives names in right order but not dates)
When the autogenerate property of datagrid is set to true, how to perform sorting on date fields.
Example:
SELECT DC_NO AS [Document No],CONVERT(CHAR(10),DC_DT,103) AS [Document Date], [Name] FROM XYZ
Here we convert the date field to the format "dd/mm/yyyy" so when sorting is done it is done in the format "dd/mm/yyyy". But instead sorting should be done in "yyyy/mm/dd" format.
i am pulling data from a read only database and the dates are i think in varchar format (they sort by 01-01-2012, 01-02-2011...etc)the dates are also in US format.how can i convert these to a EUROPE date format and also datetime so that i can use the > and just show logged events greater than a specific date
Code:
SELECT logId, logdate, logdesc FROM dbo.log WHERE (logdate >'07/07/2012')
the code about will not work as the logdate is in varchar.
I have a problem with an Order By sort on a SubmissionDate column in my SQLSERVER DB.
I am inputing a timestamp in this format into the column above: 1/18/2005 11:03:19 AM
Problem is, once I sort this column in DESC order to return the results to a datalist dates with a time like this:
1/18/2005 1:03:19 AM
get placed out of place (lower on the return in DESC/higher on the return in ASC). I am assuming this is happening because it reads 1 as coming before 11 instead of after like it is with time. If this was in 24 hour format this wouldn't be a problem I guess because 1PM would be 13, so that is after 11.
Anyone know what I can do to get this sorted correctly?
I want SQL to look at a date field and sort the data by todays date and greater. Even though there may be some data older than today. I've tried something like this but not working
I've got a table where the date and time fields are all out of sequence and I need them in sequence when I am extracting data from the table, but I'm having trouble writing the SQL.
I've got this line which sorts the date and time for the table:
SELECT * from tblcodegreydiv order by date desc, time desc
Now I'm trying to retrieve the closest record prior to a date,time selected by a user...
SELECT * from tblCodeGreyDiv WHERE recid=(SELECT MAX(recid) from tblCodeGreyDiv WHERE date + '' + time <= '2007-09-19 05:24')
I need to somehow sort the table before I run the above sql statement. How would I go about doing this?
I have the column of type string in the database Following is the data in that column 1 2 11 12 21 abc If i sort the table with the help of this column then the output come in the following manner 1 11 12 2 21 abc
can i improve the order actually i want the output like 1 2 11 12 21 abc
Created a custom SSRS report. applied an interactive sort for a date field. I have the the formatting set to "MM/DD/YYYY" and it sorts everything correctly except for the year.
Example:
As you can see, the dates with 2014 aren't sorted correctly. I want it to sort the dates like:
11/06/2014 12/10/2014 01/07/2015 etc, etc.
Is there a way to get this to take into account the year? but also the month and day?
Hi, I have a table whose Identifying column is not an integer but rather a manually entered id. (i.e. 106F, 106-09, G11 etc.) When sorted ascending, a G11 will come before a G2 in the list, 106-11 before 106-2, etc.I would like to insert a new column in the database or use some kind of function when sorting the database to ensure that the list in returned in the proper order. Any ideas?Much appreciated...
I have a matrix with the rows consisting of customers and the columns consisting of different revenue streams. The revenue streams are totalled using the matrix subtotal feature. I would like to sort, either interactively or statically (if that is the only option) by the subtotal column. I've read through everything I can find online and even the solutions that appear to be appropriate do not work. Can anyone give me a suggestion?
can anyone please help on a sql statement that would sort out three kinds of data. let's say i have a column that contains a status flag. there are only 2 possible values, add and delete. now, i want to sort out three kinds of data: add_only, delete_only, and update. Update is the data that contains duplicate records in the table. Which means, there are two rows having same "student_number" but two different status flags. This happens when there's an update or change in data, such as new address or new phone number. The old row/data is sent with status flag of delete, while the updated data is sent with status flag of add. Example below. An output table with a new column of tag is created.
reports table
STUDENT_NO NAME ADDRESS PHONE STATUS FLAG
1 McKenzie Ohio 9111111 add
2 Hario New Jersey 1234567 add
3 Oda Japan 9876543 delete
4 Davis Chicago 1112222 add
5 Rodriguez Detroit 4445555 add
1 McKenzie Ohio 7778888 delete
4 Davis Detroit 1112222 delete
create, remove, update table
STUDENT_NO NAME ADDRESS PHONE STATUS FLAG TAG
2 Hario New Jersey 1234567 add create
5 Rodriguez Detroit 4445555 add create
3 Oda Japan 9876543 delete remove
1 McKenzie Ohio 9111111 add update
4 Davis Chicago 1112222 add update
Anyone knows what SQL statements to use to have this output? Thanks.
ID - Time 1 2000-2001 2 2002- 3 2001-2003 4 1999 5 2005-2006
I want this as a result:
1999 2000-2001 2001-2003 2005-2006 2002-
Because the "-" means "continues", it the thing is still activated, so if it makes it easier, i could put the today's year afterwards during the query, if it ends with a - ...
Now, simply doing a SELECT * FROM [table] ORDER BY TIME;
Sorts it "perfectly", apart from the "2002-" is just placed before 2005 and after 2001.
So, of course, it fails on all entries with a leading "-" ...
Right when I clicked "submit", of course, I can simply replace all entries with a time ending with "-", with the todays Year, so at least they will get at the end of the query...
Well, have to do a union, first sorting all without the "-", then sorting all with the "-", and that should be it...
Hello, I have data coming in from two sources, one being SQL and the other being Oracle. The end result needs to be a CSV file with the columns in a specific order. I have a Data Flow task setup that takes both sources and does a Merge Join on them. I can add a Sort Transformation and manually set the sorting of all 156 columns that end up going to a CSV file destination. However, I have a table setup that holds the names of the 156 columns and the order that the CSV file expects them to be in. I would much rather do this step dynamically as the column names and order may change in the future. Anyone who has used the Sort Transformation for a large number of columns knows how tedious it can be and how adding a column in the middle will cause you to change the sort # for each of the columns that come after it.
So I added a Script Component between the Merge Join and the Flat File Destination hoping that I could alter the order of the columns there. However I added the following code and found that the SortKeyPosition is ReadOnly.
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim column As IDTSInputColumn90
For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection
column.SortKeyPosition = 1
Next
End Sub
I was hoping to add some code to get the sort index from my table for each of the columns and set it to the SortKeyPosition. Has anyone out there done this before or seen an example that might point me in the right direction? I've searched for 2 days without coming up with much.
I have a matrix report...the column results are as follows
Con Std , Con Access, SF Std, SF Acc, Broadband, Pay TV
how would i make the columns appear in the above order when displaying as it is default alphetically sorted...I have tried putting numbers at the front which work till I get to the number 10 which alphetically sorted is next to 1 not 9? is there a better way off sorting matrix column which have no specific criteria to sort from?
I am creating a Matrix report using SSRS/Visual Studio 2008 as below:
Jan Feb March April May June July Aug Sept Oct
A & B are customers. The values represent sales for each month.I have got most parts in place except the Month are displayed in random order (1,10,2,3,4,5,6 and so on).I have tried the option to create a calculated column with month numbers and change group properties but that did not work.how to get it to sort display as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.
I am having problem with the unpivot function of sql 2012, i unpivot my column then i get the result that i wanted but the error that i was encountering was the unpivot is automatically sort the column in alphabetically order which is not I desire,
Here is my code
@syear nvarchar(50) AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON;
I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.
So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.
SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int. When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end. The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order. The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

I have a matrix report with 2 column SaleAmount and ProfitAmounts by Month like
Sale Profit Dealer 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 A 100 200 300 20 25 15 B 200 250 50 30 45 19
how can i do following 3 things
1)Add Total column for Sale and Average column for Profit 2)Sort report by lastMonth of Sale (here 7/1/2007) High to low 3)if last month of sale(here 7/1/2007) is less than second last month here (6/1/2007) whole row should be red
I have an SSIS package that moves data from SQL Server to an legacy Access database. In SQL Server, there is a date/time column that I need to split into a separate date column and time column in the access database. Initially I just created a derrived column for the time and set the expression equal to the source date/time column from SQL Server. Unfortunately, that just makes the date column and time column the same having the full date/time.
What expression can I use during a derrived column transformation to assign just the date to a derrived column and just the time to another derrived column?
I want to compare two columns in the same table called start date and end date for one clientId.if clientId is having continuous refenceid and sartdate and enddate of reference that I don't need any caseopendate but if clientID has new reference id and it's start date is not continuous to its previous reference id then I need to set that start date as caseopendate.
