Hi,
Could some one help me how to do
insert into test2(id,name) values ((select max(id) from test1),'user1')
in MS SQL Server
its throwing "Subqueries are not allowed in this context. Only sc
alar expressions are allowed" Exception. Help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Why aren't we getting proper MAX(DOJ) value in Weird_Maxgroup Column in the below query ? Similar thing happens with MIN() function as well.
Is there something that I am missing here ?
;WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT 1 AS ID, 10000 AS SALARY,GETDATE() AS DOJ
UNION ALL
SELECT 1, 13000,GETDATE() - 10
UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 190000,GETDATE() + 10
[Code] ....
While running the below query, getting the error: Am I missing any of the columns to include in the SELECT column_list?
Msg 8120, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Column 'sys.master_files.database_id' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.

I'm trying to write a query to select various columns from 3 tables. In the where clause I use a set of conditions, but most important condition is that I only want to see all results from the different columns where the ph.ProdHeaderDossierCode contains at least 25 lines of processed hours. I tried this with group by and having, but I constant get error messages on all other columns that I want to see: "is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause". How can I make this so I can see all information I need?
Here is my code so far:
selectph.CalculatedTotalTime,
ph.ProdHeaderDossierCode,
ph.MachGrpCode,
ph.EmpId,
pd.PartCode
fromdbo.T_ProcessedHour ph,
[Code] ....
I have a table like this below:
<PRE>
Page Book Release MaxPages
1234ABC A1
1234ABC B2
9999ABC D1
9999ABC E2
7777ABC A1
7777ABC C2
</PRE>
I want to select every page of the book, but only the highest release of that page.
Something Like:
Select Book, Page, Max(Release), MaxPages
From Table
But I can't quiet figure it out.
Thanks for any help.
Can you provide me a way to avoid using the aggregate function Max in the following select statement?
SELECT a.clmssn,
a.cossn,
Max(b.clm_seq_num) as clm_seq_num,
Max(c.chrs_seq_num) as chrs_seq_num,
Max(b.clm_dcn_dt) as clm_dcn_dt
FROM Claim a
LEFT OUTER JOIN clmdcn b
ON a.clmssn = b.clmssn
AND a.cossn = b.cossn
AND a.clm_seq_num = b.clm_seq_num
INNER JOIN clmchrs c
ON a.clmssn = c.clmssn
AND a.cossn = c.cossn
AND a.clm_seq_num = c.clm_seq_num
Group By a.clmssn, a.cossn
Order By a.clmssn, a.cossn
I want to join another table, Juris, to get the Crnt_Office column but the aggregate function Max forces me to include Crnt_Office it in the group by clause. This results in returning all rows containing unique office codes. I only want the office code from the row with the highest Clm_Seq_Num and Juris_Seq_Num.
Juris
Clmssn = key
Cossn = key
Clm_seq_num = key
Juris_seq_num = key
Crnt_Office
The following returns incorrect results:
SELECT a.clmssn,
a.cossn,
Max(a.clm_seq_num) as clm_seq_num,
Max(c.chrs_seq_num) as chrs_seq_num,
Max(d.juris_seq_num) as juris_seq_num,
Max(b.clm_dcn_dt) as clm_dcn_dt,
d.crnt_office
FROM mt16ic_Claim a
LEFT OUTER JOIN mt16ic_clmdcn b
ON a.clmssn = b.clmssn
AND a.cossn = b.cossn
AND a.clm_seq_num = b.clm_seq_num
LEFT OUTER JOIN mt16ic_juris d
ON a.clmssn = d.clmssn
AND a.cossn = d.cossn
AND a.clm_seq_num = d.clm_seq_num
INNER JOIN mt16ic_clmchrs c
ON a.clmssn = c.clmssn
AND a.cossn = c.cossn
AND a.clm_seq_num = c.clm_seq_num
Group By a.clmssn, a.cossn, d.crnt_office
Order By a.clmssn, a.cossn
If more information is needed, I have data examples but could not include them due to character size limit. Thank you for your help.
Ok, for a bunch of cleanup that i am doing with one of my Portal Modules, i need to do some pretty wikid conversions from multi-view/stored procedure calls and put them in less spid calls.
currently, we have a web graph that is hitting the sql server some 60+ times with data queries, and lets just say, thats not good. so far i have every bit of data that i need in a pretty complex sql call, now there is only one thing left to do.
Problem:
i need to call an aggregate count on the results of another aggregate function (sum) with a group by.
*ex: select count(select sum(Sales) from ActSales Group by SalesDate) from ActSales
This is seriously hurting me, because from everything i have tried, i keep getting an error at the second select in that statement. is there anotherway without using views or stored procedures to do this? i want to imbed this into my mega sql statement so i am only hitting the server up with one spid.
thanks,

I know it has something todo with the select on the table SRTAS, but what's the best way to solve this problem without the chance of getting a wrong result.
The SELECT on SRTAS is to get the "description" of STATI.Z4414 who's stored in the table SRTAS.
I only want to group on the fields that will be inserted in WERKS.Z8602, WERKS.Z8603, WERKS.Z8604, WERKS.Z8605, WERKS.Z8606. So adding STATI.Z4400 to the GROUP BY would give me wrong results?
This query is dynamicly generated from within my program from what the user selected.
Also, if there are better ways to write the query, I would be happy to get some hints and tips, but if possible without stored procedures.
Thanks in advance!
I tend to learn from example and am used to powershell. If for instance in powershell I wanted to get-something and store it in a variable I could, then use it again in the same code. In this example of a table order items where there are order_num, quantity and item_prices how could I declare ordertotal as a variable then instead of repeating it again at "having sum", instead use the variable in its place?
Any example of such a use of a variable that still lets me select the order_num, ordertotal and group them etc? I hope to simply replace in the "having section" the agg function with "ordertotal" which bombs out.
select order_num, sum(quantity*item_price) as ordertotal
from orderitems
group by order_num
having sum(quantity*item_price) >=50
order by ordertotal;
I have a specific variation on the standard 'Column Invalid' question: I have this query that works fine:
SELECT vd.Question ,
csq.Q# ,
csq.Q_Sort ,
csq.Q_SubSort ,
AVG(CAST(vd.Response AS FLOAT)) AS AvgC ,
vd.RType
[Code] ....
When I add this second average column like this:
SELECT vd.Question ,
csq.Q# ,
csq.Q_Sort ,
csq.Q_SubSort ,
AVG(CAST(vd.Response AS FLOAT)) AS AvgC ,
[Code] ....
I get the error: Column 'dbo.vwData.Response' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
Clearly things are in the right place before the change, so I can only assume that the OVER clause is my problem. Is this just not possible?
Can any1 tell me why i am getting an error

Hi,
I have a question about Insert into .....
Select clause in a SP. I need to insert some rows into a temperary table in a specific order. For example,
insert into #TempTable
{
.......
........
}
Select * from products order by @SortBy @SortDirection.
//
First of all, the order by clause does not take
variables. I have tried to use
declare @query varchar (1000)
set @query = 'Select * from products order by " + @SortBy + ' ' + @SortDirection
exec (@query)
//
However, I get an error message because I should supply a Select statement.
How can I solve this problem??
Thanks for your help!

Hi Guys,
I am having trouble with a particular query that is beyond my scope of understanding.
Basically I need to pull sales records based on the following criteria:
I have CustomerID, InvoiceNumber, ContractEndDate, MobileNumber, etc..
Customers recontract their mobile phone plans through us, and we have a new sales record for each time they recontract.
For example, CustomerNumber 123 has recontracted 3 times..
once on 2006-01-01, then on 2007-02-12, and finally on 2008-02-15..
So they have a 12 month contract each time.. then come in to recontract it.
So.. a customer has a single Customer Detail record, but may have many sales records attached. And a customer may have several sales for the SAME mobile phone number.
Currently to pull ALL sales records for all customers, my query is this:
Code:
SELECT xxx.CustomerID AS xxx_CustomerID,
xxx.Invoice AS xxx_Invoice,
yyy.PhoneType AS yyy_PhoneType,
yyy.PlanType AS yyy_PlanType,
yyy.ContractEnds AS yyy_ContractEnds,
yyy.MOB AS yyy_MobileNumber
FROM dbo.SaleControl xxx INNER JOIN dbo.SaleDetails yyy ON xxx.Invoice = yyy.Invoice
WHERE yyy.ContractEnds IS NOT NULL
AND xxx.CustomerID IS NOT NULL
We want to get a list of customers that we can call to recontract, based on the ContractEnd field.
However, we want UNIQUE mobile phone numbers, with the LATEST ContrtactEnd date.
So, Customer 123 has 6 sales, for 2 unique Mobile numbers, the sql may be like:
Code:
SELECT MAX(yyy.ContractEnds) AS LatestCED, yyy.MOB
FROM dbo.SaleControl xxx INNER JOIN dbo.SaleDetails yyy ON xxx.Invoice = yyy.Invoice
WHERE xxx.CustomerID='123'
GROUP BY yyy.MOB
Now, this works fine, and of course if i remove the WHERE clause, it collects all unique mobiles, with latest ContractEnd date for each, for all customers. (Customer 123 displays 2 mobile numbers, each with the LATEST ContractEnd date)
BUT i need this information ALONG WITH the other fields (xxx.CustomerID, xxx.Invoice, yyy.PhoneType, yyy.PlanType) and i have tried a few ways of doing it, but can't get my head around it..
Keep getting errors about Aggregate functions and Group By clause, and i understand why i am getting them, just cant think of any alternative query.
Can anyone please help me!
Thanks guys,
Mick
Does anyone know how to make a query and use an aggregate function? This is my current code...any help would be great.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a way to insert a count of a set of records into a table and then read that table and produce an XML file from that dataset. The problem that I'm coming across is that when you do this type of query you have to specify one of the values from the table and then get a count for the number of records of that particular range of values.
The table that I am trying to get the data from will look something like this:
ItemID ModuleID Description ......1 2869 blah blah blah2 2869 blah blah blah3 2869 blah blah blah4 2690 bit bit bit5 2690 bit bit bit6 2690 bit bit bit
So I count the 2869's and 2690's and place the ModuleID and the count of the ItemID's in another table.
Then I need to extract the data from the table and put it into an XML file that is readable by the ReadXML method in ASP.NET.
So far I've got the SPROC to do only one record at a time but I would like one that does the whole table rather than one at a time using a parameter.
I am trying to write an update statement based on an aggregate and it will not let me. Please find below the SQL.
update abtimesummary
set hours = sum(a.hours)
from abtimestore a
join abtimesummary b
on (cast(a.weekno as varchar(10)))+'-'+(cast(a.empno as varchar(10))) = b.summaryid
and this is the error message:
Server: Msg 157, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
An aggregate may not appear in the set list of an UPDATE statement.
Can someone tell me how to get round this please?
Many thanks
hi there,
I have a query that works on sybase and want to make it also works on SQL Server.
The problem is that in this query I 'm using a subquery in an aggregate function.
It seems that SQL Server unlike Sybase doesn't support the use of subquery in aggregate function.
How can I overcome this problem.

If you use Coalesce with Count will it return all values even when null? Reason I pose this question to you is that I am running the below query and am getting escalated results than what should be returned. 1st stop on the debug train is how does Coalesce handle it....for example Boston should return only 143 but the query retunrs 194 for Boston?

Hi guys,
Does anybody know a convenient way to return the product of a column, similar to something like the 'sum' function?
If I have a table of form id-date-value, I'd like to do something like:
select id, date, product(val)
If not, does anyone know of a way one could structure this as a subquery?
If all else fails, I suppose I'll have to resort to a loop or cursor, but I'd rather not.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I am trying to use the following syntax and it is saying I can't use an aggregate function in a subquery. I can't use a GROUP BY in this case because if another field in the project table (such as status) is different, that project will show up twice.So in this case I am using this syntax to show the most recent quote within the project.
SELECT PROJECT.*, QUOTE.QuoteDate, QUOTE.QuoteCode
FROM PROJECT LEFT JOIN QUOTE ON PROJECT.ProjectID = QUOTE.ProjectID
WHERE QUOTE.QuoteDate=(SELECT Max(Q.QuoteDate) FROM QUOTE Q WHERE Q.ProjectID = PROJECT.ProjectID);
My goal here is to show the most recent quote within each project (there can be multiple revisions of a quote within each project). I want to show other fields such as the status of the quote, but if the status is different between quotes, the GROUP BY on that field will cause it to be listed more than once. All I want to show is the most recent quote for each project.
I have a query that I need to group by by using the aggregate function using MSSQL...
