Compare Amounts Between 2 Tables

Sep 21, 2012

I have two tables. One is Invoice_tbl, with one account per customer.

This table has 3 fields; CustomerID, InvoiceAmount, InvoiceID.

Then second table is, Payment_tbl, with 2 fields; InvoiceID and PaymentAmount. The Payment table can have multiple payments from each customer.

With Access, i would run a QUERY(call it PaymentTotal) against Payment_tbl, then do a "GroupBy" on InvoiceID and SUM on the "Amount" field.

I then would create a NEW query against Invoice_tbl and INNER JOIN on Payment Total.

How would i do this with SQL?

SQL Server Storing Large Amounts Of Data In Multiple Tables

Jul 20, 2005

Hello,Currently we have a database, and it is our desire for it to be ableto store millions of records. The data in the table can be divided upby client, and it stores nothing but about 7 integers.| table || id | clientId | int1 | int2 | int 3 | ... |Right now, our benchmarks indicate a drastic increase in performanceif we divide the data into different tables. For example,table_clientA, table_clientB, table_clientC, despite the fact thetables contain the exact same columns. This however does not seem veryclean or elegant to me, and rather illogical since a database existsas a single file on the harddrive.| table_clientA || id | clientId | int1 | int2 | int 3 | ...| table_clientB || id | clientId | int1 | int2 | int 3 | ...| table_clientC || id | clientId | int1 | int2 | int 3 | ...Is there anyway to duplicate this increase in database performancegained by splitting the table, perhaps by using a certain type ofindex?Thanks,Jeff BrubakerSoftware Developer

SQL Server 2008 :: Easy Way To Compare Contents Of Objects Between 2 Different Databases?

Jul 20, 2015

Is there an easy way to compare the contents of objects between 2 different databases? For example, say I had 2 databases, My_DB_1 and My_DB_2, each with a SEC_User table. Say I wanted to do an object-to-object comparison between databases to see if there were any differences. Here's some sample SQL:

use My_DB_1
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')

use My_DB_2
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')

Say that the result sets above both returned a SEC_GetUser sproc object ref. Is there a way to write SQL that will compare the SEC_GetUser sprocs (and other objects in the above rowsets) from both databases? For example, if My_DB_1.SEC_GetUser returns an extra column in the result set than My_DB_2.SEC_GetUser then I'd like my comparison SQL to return a single column "IsDifferent" with SEC_GetUser as a row....

SQL Server 2008 :: Inner Join Database Table With XML Data

Jan 25, 2011

I have a XML data passed on to the stored proc in the following format, and within the stored proc I am accessing the data of xml using the nodes() method

Here is an example of what i am doing

DECLARE @Participants XML
SET @Participants = '<ArrayOfEmployees xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<Employees EmpID="1" EmpName="abcd" />
<Employees EmpID="2" EmpName="efgh" />
</ArrayOfEmployees >'

SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)

the above query produces the following result

EmployeeID EmployeeName
--------------- -----------
1 abcd
2 efgh

How do I join the data coming out from the above query with another table in the database, for example Employee in this case

i.e. somewhat like this (note the following query does not perform the join correctly)

SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)
INNER JOIN
Employee EMP ON EmployeeID = EMP .EmployeeID

My desired output after the join would be

EmployeeID EmployeeName Email Home Address
--------------- ----------- --------------- -----------
1 abcd abcd@abcd.com New York
2 efgh efgh@efgh.com Austin

SQL Server 2008 :: Join Another Table But With Select Conditions?

ISNULL(t.dbSchTypeCode, 'No Ref') AS dbSchTypeCode,
ISNULL(t.dbSchTypeDesc, 'No Ref') AS dbSchTypeDesc,

[code]....

however, I only want the lastest a.dbPatApptTime and only when a.dbPFStatus = 1 and a.ClientRef = 'EPS'

So the stand alone sql could be....

Select Top(1) dbPatApptTime as LastVisitDate, dbSchTypeDesc as LastVisitDesc
from appointments
where dbPFStatus = 1 and clientref = 'EPS'
order by dbPatApptTime desc

I'm just not sure how to incorporate that into my sql or whether there is a better way,

SQL Server 2008 :: How To Return 1 Particular Column From Another Table In Join

Apr 25, 2015

I'm creating a sql stored procedure inside this proc it returns some information about the user, i.e location, logged in, last logged in, etc I need to join this on to the photos table and return the photo which has been set as the profile picture, if it hasn't been set then return the first top 1 if that makes sense?

The user has the option to upload photos so there might be no photos for a particular user, which I believe I can fix by using a left join

My photos table is constructed as follows:

CREATE TABLE [User].[User_Photos](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[UserId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[PhotoId] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[IsProfilePic] [bit] NULL,

[Code] ....

Currently as it stands the proc runs but it doesn't return a particular user because they have uploaded a photo so I need to some how tweak the above to return null if a photo isn't present which is where I'm stuck.

SQL Server 2008 :: Optimizing Join With CASE Statement

Jul 20, 2015

I have data that I want at multiple granularities, 5,15,30 and 60 minutes. To reduce repetition, I have put them all in the same table, so that there is a column for 5,15,30 and 60 minutes, with a filtered index on each of the columns that removes the nulls. This means that each day will have 288 slots, but only 24 of the slots are filled in for 60 min data, and all of them are filled for 5 minute data.

I have another column that specifies the interval granularity, and my first thought was to access my data through a join, where I can use a CASE statement, and depending on the data granularity necessary, it will look at a different column:

INNER JOIN Data d ON
AND d.settlement_key =
CASE st.interval_granularity
WHEN 5 THEN [5_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 15 THEN [15_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 60 THEN [60_min_settlement_key]
ELSE NULL END

Despite the presence of the indexes on the columns, then the process seems to be quite slow, I think probably due to the fact that any query plan isn't going to know beforehand which of the columns it is going to use for any given dataset, until it actually starts to run, so it may not be optimised.

How I could optimise this based on the given structure? Maybe there are hints to be added to the join, or maybe I can clear the query plan each time the SQL is run? My other option for dealing with the data of different granularity was to use one column and repeat the data multiple times, each at the different granularity, but this makes my data, row and table sizes much higher, as we are adding just a column for each additional granularity. Would this work any better in future versions of SQL server, maybe with column store indexes?

SQL Server 2008 :: Collation Used By SSIS MERGE JOIN Task

Aug 27, 2012

Can the collation used by SSIS be changed or influenced during install or run time? We have found that our databases, that use a mandatory "LATIN1_GENERAL_BIN", have incorrect SSIS Merge Join output. Changing our database collation in testing didn't make a difference. What matters is the data. Which Windows collation is SSIS using?

Example Data:
FIRSTNAME
FIRSTNAME
FIRSTS-A-NAME
FIRSTS_A_NAME
FIRST_NAME
FIRST_NAME
FIRSTname
FIRSTname
FIRS_NAME

put in a Sort task before the Merge Join task as setting advanced properties isn't enough (as described by Eric Johnson here --> [URL] ......

We are using 64-bit SQL Server 2008 R2 w/ SP1 in Windows Server 2008 R2 ENT w/ SP1.

UPDATE from ETL team: Explicitly ordering the source with "COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AS" seems to have the same effect as using a separate sort task. We don't feel that we can rely on our findings, however, unless we have documentation that this collation is what is behind SSIS.

SQL Server 2008 :: Select Queries With Join Sometimes Fail On Some Remote PCs

Jul 22, 2015

I have an intermittent issue where some remote PC's occasionally fail to execute select queries that have a join or return multiple result sets, however simple one table select queries continue to work okay. When it does happen the PC's needs to be rebooted to get to work again. This may only happen some PC's while others continue to work away okay.

I am using a VB6 application and ADO to connect to the database and the error message I get is a General Network Error, Server Not Found when it fails to execute the query. I have ran SQL Profiler on the server and while simple select queries continue to run away okay, a query a join does not even seem to show up in the profiler. The program has been working fine for 15 years with 1000's of users and has only now become an issue on one site for a number of users. Have tried moving the database to a different server and swapping network cards on the local PC's but can't seem to find the cause. The processor and the memory don't seem to be under load, but I am not sure if there is something else in SQL that is causing it to hang under certain conditions.

There have been network analysts experts in to run scans on the network, but I have not had the results of this back yet. Other applications do not seem to be affected so if this analysis does not show up anything.

SQL Server 2008 :: No-lock Across Linked Server With Join?

Mar 9, 2015

I have two servers (lets call them sA and sB) connected from sA -> sB via a linked server (i.e. sA pulls data across from sB).

I'm building a temp table full of stock symbols on sA, and then I need to update some values on sA using content on sB. The tables on sB are very large (about 500m rows) so I don't want to pull even close to everything across the linked server. Ordinarily I'd do this by joining to the linked server table, but the target table needs to have nolock on it due to their high use.

update t
set someValue = s.SomeValue
from #myTab t
inner join lnk_sB.xref.dbo.Symbols s with (nolock)
on t.id = s.id

From reading around I gather that nolock doesn't work across linked servers. It was noted in another SSC article that you could use nolock by using an OPENQUERY, but then I can't join to my local temp table, and I end up pulling all .5B rows across the linked server.

Is there some way I can limit the content on sB by my temp table on sA but still use nolock?
