SQL 2012 :: Query Returns 13864 On A Varchar Columns

Mar 24, 2015

We have a customer that is running SQL2012 and we are seeing a weird result on a query when we run it on their db. It is based off of a table that has about 30 columns but in this case we only care about 2 of them.

[Number] [varchar](15) NOT NULL
[Person_ID] [varchar](12) NULL

Here is the query we are doing:
Select Number,Person_ID From TableName where LP='ABC123'

The result I get back is the following:
Number:1
Person_ID:13864

The Person_ID should be a result of another table that created that Person_ID but it doesn't exist in that table. So we do not know where that 13864 is coming from. When we open that record through our application it shows Nothing for the Person_ID in that field.

When we do this query on our copy we get back
Number:1
Person_ID:

Which is exactly what we should see as the result.

Could there be a sql server setting that is set on their server that could possibly be given us back 13864 for a NULL value?

SQL Server 2012 :: Explicit Casting Varchar And Nvarchar Columns?

Feb 26, 2014

I know that if I have an nvarchar column I can use an equality like = N'supersqlstring' so it doesn't implicit cast as a varchar, like if I were to do ='supersqlstring'. And then I'll be a big SQL hero and all my stored procedures will run before a millisecond can whisper.

But if I'm comparing an nvarchar column to a varchar column, is it better to cast the varchar 'up' to an nvarchar or cast the nvarchar 'down' to a varchar?

For instance:

cast(a.varchar as nvarchar(100)) = an.nvarchar

or

cast(an.nvarchar as varchar(100)) = a.varchar

Leaving aside non-matching, like (at least I don't think) that SQL considers the varchar n to be equal to the nvarchar ń, what's the best way to handle this?

Pretend for a moment that each column contains a mixed letter and number ID with no accented or wiggly-squiggly Unicode characters; it's just designs clashing.

Is there a performance hitch doing it one way or another? Should I use COLLATE? Should one of the columns be altered?

SQL Server 2012 :: Query With Multiple Columns - How To Get Next Value One After Another

Aug 5, 2015

I want to know if it is possible to do the following;

I have patients that may have been transferred to different locations(see below)

location_name enter_time
4D04 2/9/15 2:35
4D14 2/9/15 8:44
RECOVERY 3 2/9/15 9:08
4D13 2/9/15 17:36
4D14 2/10/15 2:02

i know i can do a min max to get my first and last values. I want to label the columns something like

1st location, 2nd location, 3rd location, 4th location, discharge location.

there could be 1 location or 20.

is there a way to do this?

i can do a temporary table and then an update query to add the values to those columns.

just not sure how to get the next value and then the next etc.

How To Build A Procedure That Returns Different Numbers Of Columns As A Result Based On A Parameter

Nov 23, 2006

/*Subject: How to build a procedure that returns differentnumbers of columns as a result based on a parameter.You can copy/paste this whole post in SQL Query Analyzeror Management Studio and run it once you've made surethere is no harmful code.Currently we have several stored procedures which finalresult is a select with several joins that returns manycolumns (150 in one case, maybe around 50 the average).We have analyzed our application and found out that mostof the time not all the columns are used.

SQL 2012 :: CLR Returns Dates In Different Formats On Different Servers

Oct 2, 2014

I've just restored a DB from one server to another. Part of the DB is an assembly used in a Function that unencrypts some data held in a Varbinary(Max) column.

When I execute it on the original server it works fine across all rows of the table, when I execute it against the new server it fails because it's seeing dates in MM/DD/YYYY format, it works if the day of the month is less than 13, but obviously the date would be wrong!

Setting the DATEFORMAT to MDY prior to executing the function has no effect either.

It's the same DLL in the same location, the SQL Server settings as returned by DBCC USEROPTIONS() are identical.

The SQL Server editions and Window OS are the same

SQL 2012 :: CheckSum Agg Function Returns 0 For Even Number Of Repeated Values?

Aug 14, 2014

From what I've seen, the CheckSum_Agg function appears to returns 0 for even number of repeated values. If so, then what is the practical use of this function for implementing an aggregate checksum across a set of values?

For example, the following work as expected; it returns a non-zero checksum across (1) value or across (2) unequal values.

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-7077
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
1035

However, the function appears to returns 0 for an even number of repeated values.

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0

It's not specific to -7077, for example:

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0

What's curious is that (3) repeated equal values will return a checksum > 0.

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-997777

But a set of (4) repeated equal values will return 0 again.

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0

Finally, a set of (2) uneuqal values repeated twice will return 0 again.

declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (8112), (-997777), (8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0

Transform One Varchar Column Into Many Bit Columns

May 19, 2007

Hi all,
I'm new at this SSIS but have been able to successfully create some simple packages. My situation is that at work we use a column to describe a status of applications. However, this makes for hellacious query because some of those statuses inherintly were one or more statuses previously. Example
Admit = Admit
Accept = Admit then Accept
Withdraw Accept = Admit, Accept, then Withdraw
Decline = Admit then Decline
As you can see inherintly those were all admits at one point. So what I'd like to do is instead of having long queries for example to get all my "Admits", I'd rather query another table that has the following columns as bits:
Admit
Accept
Withdraw
That way I can query the admit column and get all my admits. How can I use SSIS to transform my "Decision" column into those bit columns?
Thanks for any help or suggestions you have.

SQL Server 2012 :: List Catalog Reports With No Execution History Returns 0 Rows

Feb 13, 2015

comparing UNIQUEIDENTIFIER columns..This query returns several rows where the [ReportId] and [LastRunDate] columns are both NULL:

SELECT [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID]
, MAX([TimeStart]) [LastRunDate]
FROM [dbo].[Catalog] [c]
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] [xl] on [c].[ItemID] = [xl].[ReportID]
WHERE [c].[Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source!
group by [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID]
order by 4

However, trying to just list catalog reports with no execution history returns 0 rows, but I'm expecting it to return a row for every NULL [ReportId] from the above query:

SELECT *
FROM [dbo].[Catalog]
WHERE [Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source!
AND [ItemID] NOT IN (SELECT [ReportID] FROM [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage])

I even tried casting [ItemId] and [ReportId] columns in the 2nd query to VARCHAR(255), and still got no rows, but the following queries return 0 rows and 1 row (respectively).

select * from [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] where [ReportID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1'
select * from [dbo].[Catalog] where [ItemID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1'

Concatenating Varchar Columns, Padding Added?

Oct 19, 1999

I have a table on two different servers, the only difference that I can see is that on server A columns first (varchar 32) and last (varchar 32) have ANSI_PADDING set ON and on server B those columns are OFF. No idea why this is true: I didn't specify that the table be set up this way and they both followed similar creation/upgrade paths.
I execute "select last+first from <table>" on server A and the result looks like:
<last1> <first1>
<last2> <first2>
...
On server B I get
<last1><first1>
<last2><first2>
Now the docs say ANSI_PADDING has nothing to do with this behavior; in fact if I copy the data on server B to 2 new columns with ANSI_PADDING ON I get the same results. But that's the *only* thing that was different in syscolumns. What is causing the different output behaviors on these two servers? Thanks.

How To Reclaim Space In Columns Changed From Nvarchar To Varchar

Jul 23, 2005

Hi,This is probably an easy question for someone so any help would beappreciated.I have changed the columns in a table that where nvarchar to the samesize of type varchar so halve the space needed for them.I have done this a) becuase this is never going to be an internationalapplication, b) we are running out of space and c) there are 100million rows.I have done this with the alter table statement which seems to work butthe space used in the database hasn't altered.I'm presuming that the way the records are structured within the tablethere is just now more space free inbetween each page???Is there a way or re-shrinking just an individual table and free upsome of the space in there or am i missing the point somewhere?Thanks in advance,Ian

DecryptByPassPhrase Not Decrypting Varchar Columns After Copying A Database

Jan 18, 2007

I have an encrypted column of data that is encrypted by a passphrase. The passphrase was encrypted by a symetric key in a key pair. The passphrase also is stored in a table. I can get the passphrase as needed to encrypt/decrypt the columns. I copied the production database to a new database for development. Subsequently I had to create a new symmetric/asymmetic key pair and recreated my passphrase with the new key pair. Now the passphrase will decrypt a text column but it will not decrypt two other columns which are of type varchar in the database. Here is an example:

DECLARE @pss varchar(30)
EXEC [dbo].[uspPassPhraseGet] @pss OUTPUT

SELECT DISTINCT contactid, uissueid, createdby, created_dt
,CONVERT(varchar(max),DecryptByPassPhrase(@pss, CONVERT(varchar(max),dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.title), 1, CONVERT(varbinary, 23))) as title
,CONVERT(varchar(max),DecryptByPassPhrase(@pss, CONVERT(varchar(max),dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.description), 1, CONVERT(varbinary, 23))) as description
,CONVERT(varchar(max),DecryptByPassPhrase(@pss, CONVERT(varchar(max),dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.shortdesc), 1, CONVERT(varbinary, 23))) as shortdesc,
closed_dt, confidential, statusid, due_dt, deleted_dt,deletedbyid, highrisk, dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.designator, dbo.tbl_ref_sys_status.description AS statusdesc

dbo.tbl_ref_sys_status ON statusid = dbo.tbl_ref_sys_status.ustatusid INNER JOIN
dbo.tbl_gbl_lkp_security ON uissueid = dbo.tbl_gbl_lkp_security.msgid AND
dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.designator = dbo.tbl_gbl_lkp_security.designator

Like I said I can execute the uspPassPhraseGet stored procedure and I get my passphrase. It will correctly decrypt the dbo.tbl_msg_app_legislativeinquiry.description field which is great but the other two fields will not decrypt. When i copied the database over the encrypted fields do not display the same on the new database. The old database shows a box character followed by a bunch of junk (as expected). The new copied table on the new database shows only a single box (not the same as the original). Is there a known bug with copying a table with varchar fields that are encrypted to a new database? I tried to run a test and got the same result. I also tried to convert the varchar columns to text to see if that solved the problem and it didn't. The description field however is a text type column and it reads exactly as the original. The problem I think is that the Copy Database didn't actually copy my data correctly. How can I get the original encrypted data from the production into my development. I also tried just dropping the table and reimporting the table but that didnt take either. Scratching my head on this one.

Query Returns No Row

Feb 23, 1999

When I was using a simple query using select statement with where clauses, I can get the results. When
I use AND to specify more conditions. It returns no row even though I get the result when query seperately.
What should be the possible cause of this. I am using SQL Server 6.5. Thank you

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Compare Data (join) Based On Two Varchar Columns

Mar 15, 2014

-- My first Data

create table #myfirst (id int, city varchar(20))
insert into #myfirst values (500,'Newyork')
insert into #myfirst values (100,'Ediosn')
insert into #myfirst values (200,'Atlanta')
insert into #myfirst values (300,'Greenwoods')
insert into #myfirst values (400,'Hitchcok')
insert into #myfirst values (700,'Walmart')
insert into #myfirst values (800,'Madida')

-- My Second Data

create table #mySecond (id int, city varchar(20),Sector varchar(2))
insert into #mySecond values (1500,'Newyork','MK')
insert into #mySecond values (5500,'Ediosn','HH')
insert into #mySecond values (5060,'The Atlanta','JK')
insert into #mySecond values (7500,'The Greenwoods','DF')
insert into #mySecond values (9500,'Metro','KK')
insert into #mySecond values (3300,'Kilapr','MK')
insert into #mySecond values (9500,'Metro','NH')

--Third Second Data

create table #myThird (id int, city varchar(20),Sector varchar(2))
insert into #myThird values (33,'Walmart','PP')
insert into #myThird values (20,'Ediosn','DD')
select f.*,s.Sector from #myfirst f join #mySecond s on f.city = s.city
/*
idcitySector
500NewyorkMK
100EdiosnHH
*/

i have doubt on two things

1) How Can i compare the City names, by eliminating 'The ' at the beginning (if there is any in second tale city) between first and second

2) after comparing first and second if there is no match found in second them want to compare with third table values for those not found

--i tried below to solve first doubt, it is working but want to know any other wasys to do it

select f.*,s.Sector from #myfirst f join #mySecond s on replace (f.city, 'THE ','')= replace (s.city, 'THE ','')

--Expected results wull be

create table #ExpectResults (id int, city varchar(20),Sector varchar(2))
insert into #ExpectResults values (200,'Atlanta','JK')
insert into #ExpectResults values (100,'Ediosn','HH')
insert into #ExpectResults values (300,'Greenwoods','DF')
insert into #ExpectResults values (500,'Newyork','MK')
insert into #ExpectResults values (700, 'Walmart','PP')
insert into #ExpectResults values (800, 'Madidar','')

Write A CREATE VIEW Statement That Defines A View Named Invoice Basic That Returns Three Columns

Jul 24, 2012

Write a CREATE VIEW statement that defines a view named Invoice Basic that returns three columns: VendorName, InvoiceNumber, and InvoiceTotal. Then, write a SELECT statement that returns all of the columns in the view, sorted by VendorName, where the first letter of the vendor name is N, O, or P.

This is what I have so far,

CREATE VIEW InvoiceBasic AS
SELECT VendorName, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceTotal
From Vendors JOIN Invoices
ON Vendors.VendorID = Invoices.VendorID
