Query Returning Duplicate Field Names
Jul 20, 2005
I have a .NET program that can connect to either an Access 97 database or an
SQL Server 7 database. In the database I have two tables which have a field
called ID. When I run a query like "SELECT A.*, B.* FROM A, B", the query
returns those fields as "A.ID" and "B.ID" when connected to Access 97, but
as "ID" and "ID" in SQL Server 7. Is there anyway to get SQL Server to
prepend the table name to the field name in a case like this and not return
duplicate field names like that without having to specify aliases for the
fields?

I am importing a file creating by an application which exports the file into .dbf format. Very unfortunately, this .dbf file can have fields with IDENTICAL column_names. Utilizing ActiveX, I create an ado connection to the .dbf file using a visual foxpro drver. However, and not unexpectantly, I can not do the 'select *' from the file if there are duplicate names.
Can anyone make recommendations here that might help?
Oh, this is SQL200 in case that impacts what you might advise!!!!

I'm trying to write a query that will return rows within a specified range and print to a Crystal Report. When I run the query, it produces 2 row of everything. I would use the SELECT DISTINCT clause, but Crystal Reports will not let me edit the Select statement. But I can edit the FROM, WHERE and ORDER BY clauses. I think the problem is in my INNER JOINS but I'm having a problem figuring it out. Can someone please guide me in the right direction.
SELECT
DrawingVouchers."PlayerID",
DrawingVoucherNumbers."PromoID", DrawingVoucherNumbers."VoucherNumber", DrawingVoucherNumbers."IssueDate", DrawingVoucherNumbers."UserID",
CDS_PLAYER."LastName", CDS_PLAYER."FirstName",
CDS_ACCOUNT."Address1A", CDS_ACCOUNT."City1", CDS_ACCOUNT."State1", CDS_ACCOUNT."Zip1"
FROM
{ oj (("WinOasis"."dbo"."DrawingVouchers" DrawingVouchers INNER JOIN "WinOasis"."dbo"."DrawingVoucherNumbers" DrawingVoucherNumbers ON
DrawingVouchers."PlayerID" = DrawingVoucherNumbers."PlayerID")
INNER JOIN "WinOasis"."dbo"."CDS_PLAYER" CDS_PLAYER ON
DrawingVoucherNumbers."PlayerID" = CDS_PLAYER."Player_ID")
INNER JOIN "WinOasis"."dbo"."CDS_ACCOUNT" CDS_ACCOUNT ON
CDS_PLAYER."Player_ID" = CDS_ACCOUNT."Primary_ID"}
WHERE
DrawingVoucherNumbers."VoucherNumber" >= 37806 AND
DrawingVoucherNumbers."VoucherNumber" <= 37813

We have a query that uses the Full-text index on a view that's returning duplicate rows. We thought maybe it was the way we were joining, but we were able to simplify the query as much as possible and it still happens. Here's the query:
Code Snippet
SELECT *
FROM FREETEXTTABLE(vwSubtable, TitleSearch, 'Across five Aprils') AS KEY_TBL
ORDER BY RANK DESC
vwSubtable is an indexed view that contains some of the columns in our original table, and is also filtering out some rows from the main table in a where clause. There are no joins in the view.
This seems like it's about as simple a query as we could get. It will return some rows twice (ie. the same primary key row is returned back as two separate rows in the resultset). This is a problem since we're filling a datagrid, which is throwing a ConcurrencyException because the primary key is already in there.
I made sure we have SP2 installed on my SQL Server. Any ideas on what might be happening?

Hello, I have a C# application that adds records to a SQL Server database using a query something like this one:
INSERT INTO table_name
(first_name, last_name, date_added) ('john', 'smith', '1/1/2005 12:00:00pm') ;
SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() AS [Scope_Identity]
This works fine unless there's already a John Smith in the database. When that happens, Scope_Identity is null even though the date_added is different. About half the time the record is added even though Scope_Identity is null. I've added code to notify me when this happens, but it's a pain in the neck to re-run my import utility for individual records.
(The table I'm adding to does have a autonumbered key field)
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
How canI get all field names in a table using sql query? Now I am not interested in the data in this table, what I am interested in is just the schema, i.e. all field names. Thanks.

Hello All,
I have been trying to get this code work, but I could not. Every thing seems going well. However, The result of running the sql query is strange. It shows the field names twice.
Eg:) if you have a table called "newtable" that has two fields[Custnumber, Custname], you will get somthing like this [Custnumber, Custname Custnumber, Custname]. I have tried many times, but I couldn't fix it.
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) handles Mybase.Load
if not page.Ispostback then
try
Sqlconnection = New Sqlconnection (connectionString)
querystring = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNs
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Newtable'"
SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(queryString, Sqlconnection)
SqlConnection.Open
dataReader = SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
while dataReader.Read()
Tablefields_txt.text += dataReader.Getstring(0) & ", "
End while
catch ex as Exception
msgbox("An error has occured: " + ex.Message,0, "Error Message")
finally
SqlConnection.Close()
End try
End if
Any help , please

Hello,
Not sure how to do this. I think I need to use a Group By query. I have a "Products" table with the following fields:
Program#
Number
UPC
Item
Item#
Size
Dept
Everything is specific to the Program#. In other words, for every instance of a Program# there can be more than one Product, which is specified by the "Number" field. So: SELECT * FROM Product WHERE [Program#] = '12345' should return this:
12345 | 1 | 000012345678 | Cookies | 98765 | 12ct | Retail |
12345 | 2 | 000012345678 | Cake | 98765 | 12ct | Retail |
12345 | 3 | 000012345678 | Ice Cream | 98765 | 12ct | Retail |
However, some recordsets are returning like this:
12345 | 1 | 000012345678 | Cookies | 98765 | 12ct | Retail
12345 | 1 | 000012345678 | Cake | 98765 | 12ct | Retail
12345 | 2 | 000012345678 | Ice Cream | 98765 | 12ct | Retail
In which case I have to fix them (the "Number" field) with an update query sp they are numbered sequentially. Luckily, this doesn't happen very often.
Can someone help me with a query that will return only those records with duplicate values in the "Number" field? I am not sure how to construct this query which I will use as a stored procedure.
TIA,

Hello Everyone:
I am using the Import/Export wizard to import data from an ODBC data source. This can only be done from a query to specify the data to transfer.
When I try to create the tables, for the query, I am getting the following error:
Msg 2714, Level 16, State 4, Line 12
There is already an object named 'UserID' in the database.
Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 12
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
I have duplicated this error with the following script:
USE [testing]
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users1]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users2]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users3]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
I have searched the "2714 duplicate error msg," but have found references to duplicate table names, rather than multiple field names or column name duplicate errors, within a database.
I think that the schema is only allowing a single UserID primary key.
How do I fix this?
TIA

I'm trying to do an update query that looks like this:

SET PAEMPLOYEE.LOCAT_CODE = EMPLOYEE.PROCESS_LEVEL
FROM
PAEMPLOYEE A
JOIN EMPLOYEE B ON A.EMPLOYEE = B.EMPLOYEE
It's erroring out on the Employee prefix B.EMPLOYEE saying:
..."does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query"
Is it wrong or will it cause problems to have a field name the same as the table name?

WHen researching an index name problem, I found duplicate index names in sysindexes, referencing the same table. I notice that one of the indexes has a status = 2097154 and a indid of 2 while the other has a status of 0 and a indid of 0. I believe these are duplicates. Anybody have an idea if these really are and what the status and indid fields mean?

So in my case I want to show all the column but I want to eliminate multiple email addresses. I tried Distinct but its not workin because here every column is not distinct. So what should I use?
In my case I only want to show empID 1, 3, 4. I want to show all the columns

Is there anyway to determine what the resulting Field Names are going to be from a SQL Statement?
For example:
SELECT TABLE1.FIELD1, TABLE1.FIELD2, TABLE1.FIELD3, TABLE2.FIELD1 AS ANOTHERNAME
FROM TABLE1 INNER JOIN TABLE2 ON TABLE1.PK = TABLE2.FK
resulting field names:
FIELD1
FIELD2
FIELD3
ANOTHERNAME
Seems easy enough splitting all values before "FROM" by comma and doing some manipulation to remove table names and anything before the word "AS". However, it gets more difficult when you have complex CASE statements embedded in you query that may also contain commas.
Just a shot in the dark because I don't know if anyone has already done something like this before.
Thank you in advance,
Jeff

Hi all,
I have a simple query like this:
SELECT crop, ItemNo, LotNo, Site, Process, IntID, ObsDetail, ObsValue,
(CASE WHEN (rtrim(crop) = '010' OR
rtrim(crop) = '010W' OR
rtrim(crop) = '019' OR
rtrim(crop) = '019W' OR
rtrim(crop) = '018') THEN 'CORN' WHEN (rtrim(crop) = '0150' OR
rtrim(crop) = '0159' OR
rtrim(crop) = '0150W' OR
rtrim(crop) = '159W' OR
rtrim(crop) = '158') THEN 'RICE' ELSE '' END) AS Product, TestStartDate, TestEndDate, ObsString
FROM V_LAB
WHERE (LotNo >= @lotStart) AND (LotNo <= @lotEnd)
If I run this query and filled the lotStart and lotEnd parameter with: G0424MK
Then, below's the data returned. (I run the query in management studio)
010W

G0424MK

4982
PRCT MOIST

30A97-CLN-UNT-BULK
G0424MK

I'd only going to retrive 3 data that i'd like to show on the report:
1. Moisture Content, with formula:
=IIf(RTRIM(Fields!ObsDetail.Value) = "PRCT MOIST", Fields!ObsValue.Value, cdec(0.00))
the ObsValue value after i run on the report preview with LotStart and LotEnd G0424MK is: 10.35 (this is correct)
<!--[if !supportLists]-->2. Physical Damage, with formula:
=Iif(rtrim(Fields!ObsDetail.Value) = "PRCT GOOD", Fields!ObsValue.Value, cdec(0.00))
the ObsValue value after i run on the report preview with LotStart and LotEnd G0424MK sebesar: 97.50 (this is correct)
<!--[if !supportLists]-->3. Warm Test, with formula:
=Iif(rtrim(Fields!ObsDetail.Value) = "PRCENTMEAN", Fields!ObsValue.Value, cdec(0.00))
the ObsValue value after i run on the report preview with LotStart and LotEnd G0424MK sebesar: 0.00 (this is wrong) because it should be shown 97.75
anybody knows which part i made my mistake?
Thanks!

Hi,
is there any "robust" way to find out the name of a field in the pipeline by it's Lineage ID programatically? There is a sample code out there (on one of the blogs) but it seams not to be reliable...
The usecase is easy... What is the field name in an error output of that column that causes the error? We don't want to have hardcoded LineageIDs in the error handling so I think it's the best idea to go with field names... However we only get that LineageID...
Thanks,

While creating a view in SQl Server 2005 Management Studio Or Interation Services on a SQL Server 2000 database using "*" something very strange happens. Has anyone every seen this happen before?
The new view is created something like the following:
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[new_view]
AS
SELECT *
FROM Table1
GO
However, when right-clicking on the new view, and choosing "Design", the SELECT scrambles the field names with aliases of the other field names. When the view is run, the result set is incorrect. It may look something like the following:
SELECT
Field1,
Field2 AS Field3,
Field3 AS Field4,
Field4 AS Field5,
.
.
.
From Table1
