So I declared this table data type , cool.. It works
CREATE TYPE BP_Data_XXX
as table
(
XXX_VALUE_NUMERIC numeric(19,2),
bp_type VARCHAR(4),
Dt datetime,
ID int IDENTITY(1,1),
MBP numeric(19,2),
CONCEPT_ID VARCHAR(10)
)
Now my question is later how do we check whether this type exists. The following does not work.
if( object_id('BP_Data_XXX') IS NOT NULL )
print 'IT is there '
I have standard SQL query for clients, but sometimes a client does not have a specific table.
How do I deal with that? (creating the table is not an option)
SELECT
A.Col1
,A.Col2
,B.Col3
--> Col 50
FROM
TableA A Join
TableB B ON A.ColA = B.ColA
Suppose in some cases TabelB does not exist. How do I make sure the rest of the query runs okay and does not result in an error?
Say you have a fact table with a few columns that all reference the same key column in a dimension table, you want to write a view to return the information for those keys?
USE MyTestDB;
GO
SET NOCOUNT ON;
IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.FactTemp' ,'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE dbo.FactTemp;
[Code] ....
I'm using very small data at the moment, and the query plan and statistics don't really say which way.
This is my table type definition ( below ) and as you see I declared a table whose name is in @t
/*
CREATE TYPE BP_Data_ACRC_427
as table
(
AIMS_VALUE_NUMERIC numeric(19,2),
bp_type VARCHAR(4),
Dt datetime,
ID int IDENTITY(1,1),
MBP numeric(19,2),
MPOG_PHYSIOLOGIC_CONCEPT_ID VARCHAR(10)
)
*/
Declare @t as BP_Data_ACRC_427
Question: can we add an index that combines AIMS_VALUE_NUMERIC and Dt
I have a table where I need to delete rows if the member does not exists in the member table. Will the following syntax work ?

T.Gender is NULL
I have a table (we will cal DateTable) with several (20) columns, each being a date type. Another table's (Project) PK is referenced in the DateTable.
I am trying to write a query that will pull all dates for a specific project from the DateTable if they meet certain criteria(i.e. if the date is <= 7 days from now.
I started with a normal select statement selecting each column with a join to the project and then a where clause using
(DateTable.ColumnName BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE()) OR (DateTable.ColumnName BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE())) ...
The rest of the columns(all with OR between them).
The problem with this is that because I am using OR once one of the dates meets the criteria it selects all the dates that are associated with the project. I ONLY want the dates that meet the criteria and don't care about the rest.
Obviously because I have all the columns in the select statement... So I need something like
Select ALL Columns
from DateTable d
Join Project p
where p.ProjectID = d.ProjectID AND only dates BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE()))
Hi,
This is on Sybase but I'm guessing that the same situation would happen on SQL Server. (Please confirm if you know).
I'm looking at these new databases and I'm seeing code similar to this all over the place:
if not exists (select 1 from dbo.t1 where f1 = @p1)
begin
select @errno = @errno | 1
end
There's a unique clustered in dex on t1.f1.
The execution plan shows this for this statement:
FROM TABLE
dbo.t1
EXISTS TABLE : nested iteration.
Table Scan.
Forward scan.
Positioning at start of table.
It's not using my index!!!!!
It seems to be the case with EXISTS statements. Can anybody confirm?
I also hinted to use the index but it still didn't use it.
If the existence check really doesn't use the index, what's a good code alternative to this check?
I did this and it's working great but I wonder if there's a better alternative. I don't really like doing the SET ROWCOUNT 1 and then SET ROWCOUNT 0 thing. SELECT TOP 1 won't work on Sybase, :-(.
SET ROWCOUNT 1
SELECT @cnt = (SELECT 1 FROM dbo.t1 (index ix01)
WHERE f1 = @p1
)
SET ROWCOUNT 0
Appreciate your help.
Using OnSelected on the SqlDataSource----here is my currect code:private void On_Load(Object sender, SqlDataSourceCommandEventArgs e){if (e.Command.Parameters["@DueDate"].Value = "NULL"){e.Command.Parameters["@DueDate"].Value = "0000-00-00 00:00:00.000";}}
I am trying to change the value from NULL(in a datetime field) to "0000-00-00 00:00:00.000" for use on the page.Any ideas, suggestions, or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Now, suppose a employee applies leave on 26/01/2015 to 26/01/2015 then it should not insert into table and return a value "Not updated"
How to handle the scenario if a employee applies leave between the range 23/01/2015 to 27/01/2015, since 26/01/2015 is a holiday in between. how the data can still be inserted excluding 26/01/2015
Can we exclude a non-working day or a sunday.
Leavedetails table to insert leaves applied by employee is as follows
LeaveDetailID int
LeaveTypeId int
FromDate datetime
EndDate datetime
Remarks nvarchar
So, I've got this query running and it works great providing there is a record in both DataBases. Now, I need to get all of those that have a record in DBServer1 but not in TranscendDB. I assume i'd use an If not exists, but can't figure out the syntax when using the Linked Object...

I like to define my procedure parameter type to match a referenced table colum type,
similar to PL/SQL "table.column%type" notation.
That way, when the table column is changes, I would not have to change my stored proc.
Any suggestion?
i have database which has 25 tables. all tables have productid column. i need to find total records for product id = 20003 from all the tables in database.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat I want to do is return a row of data when my query doesn't return a record. I have two tables:
CREATE TABLE dbo.abc(
SeqNo smallint NULL,
Payment decimal(10, 2) NULL
) ON PRIMARY
[Code] ....
So when I run the following query:
SELECT 'abc' + '-' + CAST(SeqNo AS VARCHAR) + '-' + CAST(Payment AS VARCHAR) FROM abc WHERE SeqNo = 1
UNION
SELECT 'def' + '-' + CAST(SeqNo AS VARCHAR) + '-' + CAST(Payment AS VARCHAR) FROM def WHERE SeqNo = 1
abc-1-200.00
abc-1-500.00
As you can see since 1 doesn't exists in table 'def' nothing is returned as expected. However, if a row isn't returned I want to be able to enter my own row such as
abc-1-200.00
abc-1-500.00
def-0-0.00

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to find out if a Transaction ID exists in Table A that does not exist in Table B. If that is the case, then I need to insert into Table B all of the Transaction IDs and Descriptions that are not already in. Seems to me this would involve If Not Exists and then an insert into Table B. This would work easily if there were only one row. What is the best way to handle it if there are a bunch of rows? Should there be some type of looping?

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to programmatically determine if a temp table exists? In 6.5, I would use
IF EXISTS(SELECT * from tempdb..sysobjects where id = object_id('tempdb..#MyTable') and type = 'U')
But now that it is strongly discouraged to code against system tables, how could I re-write this statement?
The proper way to check the existence of a table would be:
IF OBJECTPROPERTY(object_id('tablename'), 'IsTable') = 1
However, to get this to run for a temp table, I think you'd have to change the database context to tempdb and then back to your database. That doesn't seem efficient.
I could use
IF object_id('tempdb..#MyTable') IS NOT NULL
But that's not guarenteeing that it's a table, right?
Any ideas?
How do I find out if a temporary table named '##test' exists? I have a stored

Hi,
This my first time using the link server to read the files directly from within SQL2005, so issues the following link:-
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'MYVFPSERVER', -- Your linked server name here
@srvproduct=N'Visual FoxPro 9', -- can be anything
@provider=N'VFPOLEDB',
@datasrc=N'"C:PROGRAM FILESMICROSOFT VISUAL FOXPRO 9Samplesdata estdata.dbc"'
After that i can open query and do the import issues, but how can check if the table exists before issues the query.
Best regards

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat’s the easiest way to check if a single value exists in a table column? I’m building a simple login page, and I want to get the username and check if it exists in my Users table. Here’s my SQL: SELECT UserID FROM UsersWHERE UserID = "admin" Could someone give me code to check for “admin” in my UserID column?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI've got two tables, one containing a list of company names(approx 10,000 records), the other containing a list of company employees (approx 30,000 records) joined by the CompanyID column.
I have a third table (approx 700 records) containing new employees to be added to the employee table. Each record in this table has the employees details plus the name of their company.
I want to write a query that will check each row in the third table to see if
a) the employee exists in the Employees table
b) the company exists in the Companies table and
c) the employee is listed under the correct company
The query should also handle any combination of the above. So if the company doesn't exist but the employee does, create the company on the companies table and update the appropriate record on the employees table with the new CompanyID etc. etc.
Oh, forgot to mention. The company names in the third table won't be exactly the same as the ones in the Company table so will need to use CharIndex.
Anybody got any ideas?
