I'm trying to something that just works in Oracle, but does not in Sql
Server.
How can I get the percentage of two counts to be returned on each row
of the query?
select count(sid), /* all not the not null */
count(*),
(count(sid) /count(*) ) as percent_not_null,
4 as four,
(3/4) as three_over_four
from dbo.sysusers
7082040
Incredibly, it changes even 3/4 into a zero!
For efficiency, I want the percentage returned in the query.
And to not use variables and coding. Efficiency,
both of the server, and of my time.
Note: I am using dbo.sysusers as an EXAMPLE only. My real
query will be on user defined application tables.
i have the percenatge that 10%...now i want to check that whether this 10 % is in between the frompercentage and topercentage..if it is there i want to return the the scale value..how can i do this in sql.
i know comparing when it is integer using where and and operator..but i dont know how use if it has the percentages.
most my fields that I am interested in getting percentage values for have to be counted first.... I am having problems converting the counted values to percentages. I don't think I am doing it right...
I would greatly appreciate an example of a very simple matrix table with a counted value that displays percentages. I have found examples online but are part of a much more complex table and I can't seem to get thier formating to work on mine.
I've always user over with partitioning however recently I am looking at some other code and they have calculating percentages using over. I'm at a lost on why you would do this.
Example would be
CAST(TABLE1.UNIT AS DECIMAL (6,2)) / SUM(TABLE2.UNIT) OVER () AS UNIT_%
I have two values and I want to express a third derived value as apercentage of the other two values. I thought it would be a simpledivision of the first two numbers and then a multiplication by 100 togive me a percentage, but all I get is 0.Here is my select statement,SELECT dbo.Eligble.GRADETotal,dbo.nil1234_Faculties_Totals.FACTotal,dbo.nil1234_Faculties_Totals.FACTotal /dbo.Eligble.GRADETotal * 100 AS [PERCENT]FROM dbo.Eligble CROSS JOINdbo.nil1234_Faculties_TotalsCan anyone point out where I'm going wrong here?Thanks in advance
I have a query which provides the total number of each of 2 invoice flags per month, starting 1st Feb this year. I also need a percentage calculated for each of the 2 flags by month. However, it is showing the totals correctly for each of the flags by month, but the percentage is using the total of both flags for all months, and so it is wrong if I only want to look at one month. The query is as follows along with a sample output including % which are incorrect.
How can I correct this so that it shows the right % for each of the flags for each month?
Select sk.Period Period, sk.[Invoice Flag], count(*) * 100.0 / Sum(count(*)) Over () Percentage, count(*) Total1 From (Select wh.worknumber [Work Order],

Trying to create a dataset for a report. I need to bring back percentage in the result set. The fields that I am using to get the percentage have valid data but the result field is 0.00%. Is there reason I cant bring back a percentage field?
Code: SELECT JobNum, Mailed, LT_7, BT_6_10, GT_10, Format([LT_7]/[Mailed], 'p') AS PctScaned1, Format([BT_6_10]/[Mailed], 'p') AS PctScaned2, Format([GT_10]/[Mailed], 'p') AS PctScaned3,

In the above query i need to calculate 100%,30% and percentage other than 100 and 30 and show them in separate columns how to do that?
1)ROUND(SUM(BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M),2)AS [100_PERCENT] WHERE BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M=BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M
2)ROUND(SUM(BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M),2)AS [30_PERCENT] WHERE AND BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M=BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M * 0.30
3) ROUND(SUM(BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M),2)AS [OTHER_CONCESSION_PERCENT] WHERE BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M between BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M*0.001 and BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M*0.299 OR BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M between BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M*0.301 and BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M*0.999
I have two tables that look like this (below). One tells me the name of my product, the Amazon Category it is in & the amount that I want to sell it for. The other tells me the Category & the fee for that category. So far so good. Though it gets tricky in the sense that some categories have two tiers. So in Electronics, the fee for $0.00 - $100.00 is 15%. But from $100 and up it is 8%.
Since it has two columns & both of the new columns pertain to the fee of my product, I can't figure out how to use both at once. For my $599.99 example it would be ($100 * 0.15) + ($499.99 * 0.08) = $55.00. Would I pivot the data? If not, how would I group it to be considered together?
I've created a report that has cells in it that I want to be formatted as percentages. I set the format code in the cell properties to "P1" and everything appears to work fine until I export to Excel. Some cells show up with only one digit after the decimal and some show up with two digits after the decimal. I looked at the formatting in Excel (right click, Format Cells...) and it is set to "[$-1010409]#,##0.0#%". I don't have the first clue what that is "supposed" to do but what it does is this:
If I enter 100.00 in the cell it shows up as 100.0%. Expected If I enter 100.10 in the cell it shows up as 100.1%. Expected If I enter 100.15 in the cell it is displayed as 100.15%. Not expected
I have formatted the report to only show one digit after the decimal, but RS exports to Excel with some funky formatting that sometimes shows one digit and sometimes two digits after the decimal. Why wouldn't it simply format the cell as a percent? How can I get it to only show a single digit after the decimal?
This is Excel 2007 but Excel 2003 has the same behavior.
I'm having a bit of a trouble explaining what I'm trying to do here.
I have 3 "source" tables and a "connecting" table that I'm going to use
tblContacts - with contactID, ContactName etc tblGroups - with GroupID, GroupName tblSubGroups - with SubGroupID, GroupID and SubGroupName (groupID is the ID for the parent Group from tblGroups)
They are related in a table called tblContactsGroupConnection - with ContactID, GroupID and SubGroupID
One contact can be related to many subgroups. What I want is a list of all contacts, with their IDs, names and what groups they are related to:
Hi, I got a problem. I installed Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005 version. And I created a Compact database. I created an connection in SSMSE to connect the database and opened a query form. then, i run the following sql:
Select * from Table1
It returned 3 records to me. After that, I used program to insert record into this table. Then i ran this sql again, it still show me 3 records. I closed the query form, and re-created a new query form, then run the sql, it returned 4 records to me.
Why? It's very strange and difficult to operate, right? Is there anyone know how to make the SSMSE to return whole records without any close query form and re-create query form operation?
How can I know whether a query or a stored procedure is successfully executed? I mean like in delete case? here is an example
sql_delete = "DELETE FROM UserData where U_ID='" & tempID & "'" rstIDChk.Open sql_delete, cnn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
How can I make sure that the record is deleted so that I can proceed with other jobs? How can I catch it in the program like from VB? Is there any return like true or false in SQL? :(

This has got to be a simple one, but I could not find out how I have this simple proc for test purposes only...
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.RotoTest( @strSSN VARCHAR(11), @blnUseACHDate BIT = 0, @intInvestorId int = 0)ASreturn 5
Thats right it does nothing but return 5 and thats because I removed all the real code to simplify my question. When I hit this proc in SQL Query Analyzer.. exec RotoTest '123-45-6789', 0, 1 No return value is displayed in Query Analyzer. When I try something like this exec RotoTest '123-45-6789', 0, 1, intRetValue Output (in this situation I get wrong number of arguments) How can I get a return value displayed on my screen in SQL QUERY ANALYZER with out modifying the proc? I do not want to modify the proc in anyway (because I can't), I just want to display the return value
Hi I have written a query for viewing the results of an on-line survey. I have three tables involved in this query: answers, answerpossibilities and users. So I use a few joins and made this query: ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GeefAntwoordenMeerkeuze ( @question_id int ) AS SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT answerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content AS[Answerpossiblity], COUNT(answers.answers_id) AS [Times chosen] FROM answers right OUTER JOIN answerpossibilities ON answers.answerpossibility_id = answerpossibilities.answerpossibility_id left join users on answers.user_id = users.user_id WHERE ((answerpossibilities.question_id = @question_id AND nswerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content!='-- choose answer --')) GROUP BY nswerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content ORDER BY [Times chosen] desc The above query works fine. The data returned by this query is shown in a gridview. When an answerpossibilty was never chosen it shows 0 as times chosen. So that's fine. But the problem is, only answers of users who completed the survey should be shown. In the users table there's a field user_completed. So the query should check whether this field is 1 (true). ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GeefAntwoordenMeerkeuze ( @question_id int ) AS SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT answerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content AS[Answerpossiblity], COUNT(answers.answers_id) AS [Times chosen] FROM answers right OUTER JOIN answerpossibilities ON answers.answerpossibility_id = answerpossibilities.answerpossibility_id left join users on answers.user_id = users.user_id WHERE ((answerpossibilities.question_id = @question_id AND nswerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content!='-- choose answer --') and users.user_completed = 1) GROUP BY nswerpossibilities.answerpossibility_content ORDER BY [Times chosen] desc Using this query only answers of users who completed the survey are shown but answer possibilities that were never chosen are no longer shown with 0 as times chosen. The gridview simply doesn't show them anymore. Thanks for helping me!
Something went wrong by posting this message I guess, all blank lines were gone.. maybe because I used Safari on my iMac
Does sql server have a mechanism (aside from count()) that for any given SELECT query will tell you only how many rows it will return without actually returning the data?
The reason for this is that we have a generic lookup form in an application that is used on almost every screen (we have a lot of screens, so it gets a lot of different, sometimes complicted, queries passed to it to use for the lookup, and having to manually edit the query to use count over all the select clauses doesn't seem like the best way to handle this. If we could do a kind of 'trial run' against the server just to get the number of rows and use that to help set up the form, that would be ideal.
i want a query which returns all the date between 2 dates . its like an calender.....for example i selected 2-1-2006(dd-mm-yyyy) to 18-03-2006 ....it should returns like this 2-1-2006 3-1-2006 4-1-2006 . . . 16-03-2006 17-03-2006 18-03-2006

This is my problem, i have 2 tables: one table that hold data, having id as identity, say table (id, content), the other table have 2 columns: (id, number). The second table number column refer to the id in the first table. i want to build a query that get the data from the first table that correspond to a specific id in the second table, not only this i want to get the previous, the current and the next item.
For example: if table_data, table_info is first and second tables, something that can do it is :
DECLARE @i int
SELECT * FROM table_data WHERE id in (@i -1, @i +1, @i)
The problem here if @i, @i+1 or @i-1 doesn't exist the column will not be returned, i want to get a result similar to
id, content
25 null 26 null 27 #some content#
or
34 #content1# 35 #content2# 36 #content3#
so my problem is that nulls doesn't appear, i thought about using OUTER JOIN, but the problem is that outer join take tables, not (@i -1, @i +1, @i), so if only i can make somehow the outer join use these values, i think it works.
I have encountered some problems creating MDX query. There are two input parameters on report, both dropdown list and from query. The first parameter will check "State", and the second parameter "Store Name" depends on previous' result. If there's no "State" found, I manage to show a "No Data" in the "State" droplist. But with "No Data" in first parameter, the second parameter simply is not enabled. I want the second parameter shows " No Data" as well but not succeed.
Here's code
...
SELECT {[Measures].[A1], [Measures].[B1], [Measures].[C1]} ON COLUMNS ,
[Store].[Store Name].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@State) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Cube]) ... The query need to look at dataset that contains [store name] on rows, and some measures on columns. It also restricted by parameter @State.
Store Name that satisfies @State will be displayed. But if nothing from SELECT ( STRTOSET(@State) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Cube], there's nothing in result. I'd rather like show something rather than nothing. I try codes like ... MEMBER [Store].[Store].[NA] AS '"N/A"' IIF(<Parameter empty>, (SELECT ... ON COLUMNS, [Store].[Store].[NA] ON ROWS FROM ...), (SELECT ...<Original statement >) ) ... It shows "Subselect support only Column axis".
Any one has an idea? Please help me out Many thanks!
Hi, I am trying to get all the databases from MS SQL into a dropdownlist. However, I am not sure how to do that in query ... is there a way to retrieve all databases name using a query in MS SQL? Thanks.
I want the following query to return a row even when table 'X' is empty. How would I do this? SELECT TOP 1 @Var1, @Var2, @Var3 from X The parameters @Var1, @Var2 and @Var3 are passed to the stored procedure in which the above query is included. When table is empty, it reurn nothing. It only return a row when table is not empty.
Hi i am trying to use this query to pull all the publications stored in the database and all the authors contributing to that publication (1 to many relationship). I am trying to use a sub query so that i can display the results on one row of a gridview (including a consecutive list of all the authors). However i am recieving this error: Incorrect keyword near the word SET. ?
Maybe i need to add a temp column in the sub query to pull all the related authors for a single publication - but i dont know the sql for this? can anyone help?
Thanks SELECT ISNULL(Publication.month, '')+ ' ' + ISNULL(convert(nvarchar, Publication.year), '') as SingleColumn, Publication.publicationID, Publication.title FROM Publication WHERE Publication.publicationID IN (SELECT (convert(nvarchar, Authors.authorName)) FROM Authors INNER JOIN PublicationAuthors ON Authors.authorID = PublicationAuthors.authorID) AND Publication.typeID IN (SELECT PublicationType.typeName FROM PublicationType INNER JOIN PublicationType ON Publication.typeID = PublicationType.typeID
