I am working on a personal project and am drawing a complete blank
(too much celebrating last night?) on the SQL term that is used to
eliminate multiples of like data when it is returned from the
database.
ie, instead of ....
red
blue
red
green
it would return ...
red
blue
green
Sorry for the trouble and thanks.
I have a strange problem. I have some code that executes a sql query. If I run the query in SQL server query analyzer, I get a set of data returned for me as expected. This is the query listed on lines 3 and 4. I just manually type it into query analyzer.
Yet when I run the same query in my code, the result set is slightly different because it is missing some data. I am confused as to what is going on here. Basically to examine the sql result set returned, I write it out to an XML file. (See line 16).
Why the data returned is different, I have no idea. Also writing it out to an XML file is the only way I can look at the data. Otherwise looking at it in the debugger is impossible, with the hundreds of tree nodes returned.
If someone is able to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it.
1. public DataSet GetMarketList(string region, string marketRegion)2. {3. string sql = @"SELECT a.RealEstMarket FROM MarketMap a, RegionMap b " + 4."WHERE a.RegionCode = b.RegionCode"; 5.

Hi,
My application needs to retrieve data from a table which has more than 15 lakh records. The records keep increasing in thousands every 15 days.
Is there anyway i can reduce the time to retrieve? basically i have a select statement with a few conditions and a clause for the id's of these records.
In the following procedure i write the results to a temp table called #temp1I now want to count the results of #temp1, if the count of #temp1 = 0
I want to insert 'No Records Found' into #temp.ERRORMSG else return what is in the table
any idea on how to do this?
ALTER PROC [dbo].[SPU_RPT_Savings_AnomalyDispatches] 40,'04/01/07|06/30/07'

HI all.
I have a web service that does an SQL select against a database that contains international data, however when this is displayed from the web service the text such as "Rue Emile Féron 168" is not shown correctly and the 'é' is shown as a comma. Can someone advise what changes I need to make to the coding. Also our own tables have varchar fields and I'm assuming the "é" data will be saved correctly ???
Thanks
I have a subreport within the details section of my main report. This is enclosed by a single group. When I preview the subreport alone, it diplays the subreport correctly with no data (meaning it still displays the header and footer without a detail section). When the subreport is run within the main report and no subreport data is returned the subreport does not show.
Based on other threads I understand that the default functionality is to display headers and footers when no data is returned. This appears accurate except on a subreport.
In my SSIS package, I connect to an external SQL server database. This external database supports a stored procedure that I need to execute to "retrieve data". So in my package, I set the DataAccess Mode property of my OLEDB datasource to "SQL Command" and I provide the command EXEC <proc_name> <Param>,<output_param>. (The proc has an output parameter). The preview shows all the columns and data, but somehow no columns are returned....so when I try to link this data source to a copy column task, I get an error saying the source does not have any columns...any idea why this could be happening. Thanks - Manmeet
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi All,
Is there a way to hide a column if there is no data for that column? Suppose that I have a SP (lets call it wrapper) which will call multiple SP's. But for any one run, there'll be only one SP which is called. But the columns returned by these SP's is obviously different. So, in order to accomodate the output, can I create a table, add all the possible columns to it, and set the properties of the individual columns such that they will be hidden if there is no data in them? Example, SP 1 returns - ServerName, Location, OS ; SP 2 returns ServerName and location only. Now if the wrapper SP calls only the second SP (SP 2) can I configure in such a way that the third column (OS) is not displayed at all? (In normal cases, it would appear but without any data in it)...
Hope the question is clear... Thanks a lot..

I need help in sorting data return from database. For example, I have the following data:ID field1 1 Computer 2 Cell Phone 3 iPod 4 Car I know that a select statement will look something like this: SELECT field1 FROM table ORDER BY field1. However, I want the data to be display this way in the gridview: ID field1
3 iPod
1 Computer
2 Cell Phone
4 Car Any idea of how I can make this happen. Any idea is appreciated.
I am working with extracting data from a SAP database, and I would like to perform some 'visual formatting' on the returned data. Because the SQL code that I am writing will be used in a custom Report it is not possible for me to use '3rd Party' formatting tools. Furthermore because the database is hosted on an MS SQL 2008 R2 RDBMS it is not possible to use the IIF() function.
Here is a sample of the data that I am getting back at the moment. URL...Here is how I would like the data to be returned (with the exception that the blue lines will ideally be blank cells). URL...
I have come to believe that I should be using the ROW_NUMBER() function, along with the OVER() function and possibly the 'partition by' keywords.Here is my original code -
Code:
select
td.ItemCode as 'Item Code'
, td.Dscription as 'Item Description', td.Quantity as 'Order Qty'
, titm.OnOrder as 'PO Qty'
, th.CardCode as 'BP Code', th.CardName as 'BP Name'
, th.DocNum as 'Sales Order Number'
, tsp.SlpName as 'Sales Person'
, twhs.WhsCode as 'Whs Code'
, isnull(tbloc.BINLABEL, '') as 'BIN Label', isnull(cast(tbloc.QUANTITY as nvarchar(20)), '') as 'BIN Qty'
code]...
Notice above that I only see the 'Seq' and no other data. How can I go about modifying this code so that I see all of the data columns I desire? If I further 'refine' the above, by adding case statements and the individual columns that I want to see (as opposed to using the * wildcard) I get a long list of error messages.
I need to return a single column (Name.company) but I want the data returned to be viewed in multiple columns.
First is that possible? Second if so how?
My data looks like this:
University X
University X - 1
University X - 2
University X - 3
College X
College X - 1
College X - 2
College X - 3
Cmty College X
Cmty College X - 1
Cmty College X - 2
etc.
How can I get it to return only:
University X
College X
Cmty College X
Hi,
I'm trying to use the XML Task XPath operation for the first time but having some problems. I'm using the following settings:
Source type: File connection
SaveOperationResult: True (file destination)
SecondOperandType: Direct Input
PutResultInOneNode: False
XPathOperation: Values
The XML file I'm testing has the following stucture:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<BackupDataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/BackupDataSet.xsd">
<Device>
<DeviceID>6356452a-e7a6-42e1-895a-d4ade62210d5</DeviceID>
<UserID>1533c44f-c263-db11-9db3-000e9bd9f98d</UserID>
</Device>
</BackupDataSet>
When I set the SecondOperand to /* the output is a concatenated text string of DeviceID and UserID values. I'm trying to get just the DeviceID but perhaps my understanding of XPath syntax is wrong. I've tried setting the SecondOperand to the following:
//Device/DeviceID
/BackupDataSet/Device/DeviceID
//DeviceID
All of these return no results. What am I doing wrong?

Dear Friends,
I want your help to know the best way to cache the data of a dropdownbox returned by a SQL Query.(SELECT FIELD FROM DBO.TABLE)
This data returned by database is used in more than one dropdown on multiple pages. I want to cache only the dropdown control, not the entire page. Which is the best way to do it? The data isn't refreshed often, probably once per month.
Could you tell me the best way?
THANKS
I'm running sql server ver 7.0 SP4.I have an access project (.adp) that runs a view which is nothing morethan a select statement. Access locks up solid when I try to run thisquery - with NO error messages what-so-ever.If I sign onto the server, and run the view from enterprise manager - Iget:"the data provider or other service returned an E_FAIL status" !?!?!There is NO ERROR number, or further explanation of the message!!Now - this query DID work last week - all of a sudden I get this error- I've:1) repaired / compacted this database2) rebooted the server3) spent several hours searching websites & groups for an explanationa) I don't care how useless some people think enterprise manager is -at least it gave me SOME kind of error; where access just locks up!b) There are no issues with null values, or problem date fieldsanywhere in these tables.4) tried MANY variations on the query, and am now more confused thanever.5) I've RUN THIS QUERY IN AN ACCESS MDB WITH LINKS TO THE SQL SERVER -AND IT WORKS!?!?!?!?The query I'm using follows; if I remove ONE field from the selectstatement - this query RUNS!!!It doesn't matter what field I remove! It's as if, I can only have somany fields in the select statement!?!?!?This is clearly ridiculous since the query ran fine last week with thesame number of fields, not thatthat should have anything to do with this, as sql shouldn't care howmany fields I request.I'm not actually requesting any fields in the last table - but if Iremove this table it works!? If I leave this table, and select fieldsfrom it, but remove another table - again it works!So my questions:1) What [T-] is going on here?2) Why would an mdb be able to run a query that an adp can not!?!?3) When will microsoft ever release a product that provides usefulerror messages?I really don't expect an answer to #3, because I know the answer isNEVER - microsoft doesn't want to make solving problems easy.Here's the query I'm using:SELECT codes.proj_id, answers.report_date,answers.release_date, answers.notes,answers.answer_date, answers.answer_person,answers.answer, answers.answer_status,answers.answer_person2, codes.cust_idFROM dbo.codes LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.demos ONdbo.codes.code = dbo.demos.code LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.answers ON dbo.codes.code = dbo.answers.codeany help appreciated - TIABob

Hi all,
is there no a way to determine if a SqlCeDataReader has managed to return data (rows) from an executed SQL SELECT statement? I ask this because I have the following problem where I first need to determine if data (rows) are returned, if so, cycle through them and get the data out. But if I do the test to determine if data is returned (like I have in my code below) then the Reader.Read() is classed as reading a row, so when I do my 'while (Reader.Read())' this will then only work with data in the 2nd row.
if (Reader.Read()){ while (Reader.Read()) { //Get data from rows }}
I recall having this issue before as there doesn't seem to be a standard way of testing for data returned from a SELECT statement. I hope you can shed some light on this for me.
Thanks
Any suggestions on how to hide the header and footer information if there isn't any data returned on the report?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
If I have a table with some indexes on the foriegn keys and these indexes are heavily fragmented (80%+), is it normal for queries to return incorrect results?
For example if I had a table called Customer( CustID, Name) and Orders (OrderID, CustID, Product, Date).
Lets say I have a non clustered index on CustID in Orders table, and the clustered indexes are Customer.CustID and Orders.OrderID
If the non clusterd index on Orders.CustID becomes heavily fragmented and I am querying the Orders table with TSQL "SELECT * FROM Orders where CustID = @CustID" I sometimes get missing data or incorrect results. In one case all orders for a particular year were missing, but if I queried using OderID they were returned. Rebuilding the index fixed the problem.
I know the index should be rebuilt or reorganized depending on the fragmentation but if one happened to become this fragmented should it start returning incorrect data?

I have a query that returns results based on information in several tables. The problem I am having is that is there are no records in the one table it doesn't return any information at all. This table may not have any information initially for the employees so I need to show results whether or not there is anything in this one table.
Here is my select statement:
SELECT employee.emp_id, DATEDIFF(mm, employee.emp_begin_accrual, GETDATE()) * employee.emp_accrual_rate -
(SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft, employee.emp_lname + ', ' + employee.emp_fname + ' ' + employee.emp_minitial + '.' AS emp_name,
department.department_name, location.location_name
FROM employee INNER JOIN
request AS request_1 ON employee.emp_id = request_1.emp_id INNER JOIN
department ON employee.emp_department = department.department_id INNER JOIN
location ON department.department_location = location.location_id
GROUP BY employee.emp_id, employee.emp_begin_accrual, employee.emp_accrual_rate, employee.emp_fname, employee.emp_minitial,
employee.emp_lname, department.department_name, location.location_name
ORDER BY location.location_name, department.department_name, employee.emp_lname
The section below is the part that may or may not contain information:
SELECT (SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft
So I need it to return results whether this sub query has results or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

hi all
Any day, another question. I love you guys.
I want to select a subset of data from a dataset returned by either another subquery or a union.
e.g. this is how i would do it in oracle, but i have no idea how this can be done in mssql or whether it's possible at all.
select * from
(
select col1, col2, col3 from table1
union
select col1, col2, col3 from table 2
)
where col1 = 'blah'
in essence oracle treats the data returned by the subquery as a table that it would select from.
how would i do the same in mssql?
thank you
James :)
I'm running the following SQL query from LabVIEW, a graphical programming language, using the built in capabilities it has for database connectivity:
   DECLARE @currentID int
   SET @currentID = (SELECT MIN(ExperimentID) FROM Jobs_t WHERE JobStatus = 'ToRun');
   UPDATE [dbo].[Jobs_t]
   SET [JobStatus] = 'Pending'
   WHERE ExperimentID = @currentID;
   SELECT @currentID AS result
<main.img>
This is the analogous code to main() is a C-like language. The first block, which has the "Connection Information" wire going into it, opens a .udl file and creates an ADO.NET _Connection reference, which is later used to invoke methods for the query.
<execute query.img>
This is the inside of the second block, the one with "EXE" and the pink wire going into it. The boxes with the gray border operate much like "switch" statements. The wire going into the "?" terminal on these boxes determines which case gets executed. The yellow boxes with white rectangels dropping down are invoke nodes and property nodes; they accept a reference to an object and allow you to invoke methods and read/write properties of that object. You can see the _Recordset object here as well. <fetch recordset.img>
Here's the next block to be executed, the one whose icon reads "FETCH ALL". We see that the first thing to execute on the far left grabs some properties of the recordset, and returns them in a "struct" (the pink wire that goes into the box that reads "state"). This is where the code fails. The recordset opened in the previous VI (virtual instrument) has a status of "closed", and the purple variant (seen under "Read all the data available") comes back empty.
The rest of the code is fairly irrelevant, as it's just converting the received variant into usable data, and freeing the recordset reference opened previously. My question is, why would the status from the query of the recordset be "closed"? I realize that recordsets are "closed" when the query returns no rows, but executing that query in SSMS returns good data. Also, executing the LabVIEW code does the UPDATE in the query, so I know that's not broken either.
I got this error for a calculated field that calls a public function of a custom assembly based on the report parameter values. The return type is an array of double.
=code.ovalues.dGetValues(Parameters!Report_Start.Value, Parameters!Report_End.Value, Parameters!Tag.Value, Parameters!Agg.Value)
Does SSRS 2005 supports the type double for a field? Can the data source of a field in a dataset be an array? Is there a way to pass the array to a field by reference and display the values at runtime?
I would appreciate any help since I could not find anything helpful on the internet and Microsoft document!
I have a report created using MS SQL Server 2005 reporting services and deployed to the report server. I added a subscription for the report to be scheduled to run and emailed to someone on a regular basis. But now we want the report emailed ONLY when there is data returned. If no data is returned after the report runs then don't email it.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks!

In one of my projects, i have been using the SSRS web service to render a report as pdf and then manually emailing it out.
I need to know whether the data set for the report returned any data or not (so that i can avoid emailing the report with a blank report body).
Ofcource this can be done by executing the same query (same as the query for the report) from C# code and checking the count of the resultset, before calling the SSRS Render method. But it might not be an efficient method.
Was wondering the the SSRS Web Service provides an property or method that can let me figure out whether the resultset was empty or not (after the report execution).
Thanks.
