I am trying to do a very small numbers table to compare A1c's against. However I am running into a issue when recursion hits the number 2.27 it starts to go out of my scope that I want with the next number being 2.27999999999999. Here is the code I'm using below. I need a Decimal(2,2) or Numeric (2,2) format with a range of 01.00 to 20.00. However every time I use Numeric or Decimal as the data type I get a error "Msg 240, Level 16, State 1, Line 5.Types don't match between the anchor and the recursive part in column "Number" of recursive query "NumberSequence"."
DECLARE @Start FLOAT , @End FLOAT ---DECIMAL(2,2) Numeric (2,2)
SELECT @Start=01.00, @End=20.00
;WITH NumberSequence( Number ) AS
(
SELECT @start as Number
UNION ALL
SELECT Number + 00.01
FROM NumberSequence
WHERE Number < @end
I have a recursive CTE on an inline table valued function. I need to set the MAXRECURSION option on the CTE, but SQL Server is complaining with "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'OPTION'".
It works fine on non-inline function. I couldn't find any documentation indicating this wasn't possible.
I can use the MAXRECURSION option in call to the function
SELECT * FROM MyFunction () OPTION ( MAXRECURSION 0 )
but that means that the user needs to know the "MyFunction" uses recursive CTE, which defeats the purpose of the abstraction.

I am trying to split the annual cost into monthly numbers based on the contract Period.Since the contract period varies from company to company not sure how to implement the logic.
Im having a lot of trouble inserting a small time value into a table cell. I gave the cell column the data type 'DateTime', i found i couldnt manually insert a time only value such as '12:30 PM' into a column with 'SmallDateTime'. Something about a "SmallDateTime Overflow Error". However if i enter a similar time value into a table column with the data type 'DateTime' it will happily accept it and leave it as entered.
The real problem seems to be when i try to send a time value to that column with my ASP.NET application. Because it inserts the time value and todays date. So that if i send:
12:30 PM
It will be stored as:
15/11/2003 12:30:00 PM
I only want to store the short time, not the date especially not the date that row was created on because thats useless for the purposes of what my application is trying to achieve and just creates problems down the track when selecting rows.
I have a table with a column ID of ContentID. The ID in that column is all NULLs. I need a way to change those nulls to a number. It does not matter what type of number it is as long as they are different. Can someone point me somewhere with a piece of T-SQL that I could use to do that. There are over 24000 rows so cursor change will not be very efficient.
If I join Table1 to Table2 with a WHERE condition, isit the same if I would join Table2 to Table1 consideringthat the size of the tables are different.Let's assume Table2 is much bigger than Table1.I've never used MERGE, HASH JOINs etc, do any ofthese help in this scenario?Thank you
I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual (empno, accrued_vacation, accrued_sick_effective_date, accrued_sick, import_date)
I am having problem to apply updates into this function below. I triedusing cursor for updates, etc. but no success. Sql server keeps tellingme that I cannot execute insert or update from inside a function and itgives me an option that I could write an extended stored procedure, butI don't have a clue of how to do it. To quickly fix the problem theonly solution left in my case is to convert this recursive functioninto one recursive stored procedure. However, I am facing one problem.How to convert the select command in this piece of code below into an"execute" by passing parameters and calling the sp recursively again.### piece of code ############SELECT @subtotal = dbo.Mkt_GetChildren(uid, @subtotal,@DateStart, @DateEnd)FROM categories WHERE ParentID = @uid######### my function ###########CREATE FUNCTION Mkt_GetChildren(@uid int, @subtotal decimal ,@DateStart datetime, @DateEnd datetime)RETURNS decimalASBEGINIF EXISTS (SELECTuidFROMcategories WHEREParentID = @uid)BEGINDECLARE my_cursor CURSOR FORSELECT uid, classid5 FROM categories WHERE parentid = @uiddeclare @getclassid5 varchar(50), @getuid bigint, @calculate decimalOPEN my_cursorFETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @getuid, @getclassid5WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGINFETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @getuid, @getclassid5select @calculate = dbo.Mkt_CalculateTotal(@getclassid5, @DateStart,@DateEnd)SET @subtotal = CONVERT (decimal (19,4),(@subtotal + @calculate))ENDCLOSE my_cursorDEALLOCATE my_cursorSELECT @subtotal = dbo.Mkt_GetChildren(uid, @subtotal,@DateStart, @DateEnd)FROM categories WHERE ParentID = @uidENDRETURN @subtotalENDGORod
Hello, could someone pls help me with this table design.
I have a project table and a code table. The code table has things like priorities (High, Medium, Low).
Now, I want all projects to be able to use these 'global' codes as well as define their own. So, they could define their own priority code 'Critical', that only their project can see.
I face following problem by last few day, please help me for the same
My Mssql server 2000 with service pack 3 use for my lan bas users, normally they can work fine without any problem, but some time user not able to retrieve information from server. I had debugged this problem and found one small table with 50/60 records not retrieving for so long at clients machine. I open enterprise manage and trough that try to open table, but server in try mode only not show a single row after long time and give message client time out.
I open query analyzer and try to select * from table_name, it is also not retrieve a single row after long time and nothing got as a message.
Shutdown the server and restart , I am able to retrieve that table from EM, Query analyzer and from application also.
Hello.I am administering a SQL Server (Enterprise Edition on Windows 2003)from some month and can't understand what is going on in the latestweek (when the db grow a lot).The DB is around 250G, and has one table with 1 billion rows. It isperforming in a decent way, but can't understand why a particolar tablehas strong performance problem.I have a stored procedure that read table from table A and insert them,after processing in table B, and then move them in other table (similarto a Star Schema) for reporting.Table B is, for how the SP is written, not more than 3000 lines. TableB is very simple, has 3 rows, and no index.What is very strange is that performance of table B is really slow. IfI do a select count (*) from table_b it takes between 30s & 2minutes toreturn it has 0 lines. When the stored procedure insert 1000 lines, ittakes 20/30 seconds and it takes 20/30 seconds to delete them.To me it doesn't look like a lock problem, because it is slow also whenthe only procedure that access that table are stopped. I did an updatestatistics with fullscan on this table with no improvement.The DB is on a Storage Area Network that should perform decently. TheLUN I use is configured to use a piece of 32 disk that are used also byother application. I don't have performance data of the SAN. Themachine is an HP DL580 with 4 CPU (hiperthreading disabled), 8G of RAM,AWE and PAE and 5G reserved for SQL Server.I don't know what to do to solve this situation. Could it be a"corruption problem" that slow this table so much? is it possible thefact the db grow a lot in the last week created problem also to thissmall and simple table?Do you have any idea or hint on how to manage this situation, orpointer to documentation that can help in analizing this situation?For the ones that arrived till here, thank you for your time andpatience reading my bad english...Best Regards,MamoPSI can't rewrite the stored procedure, because it is part of a closedsource product.
I have a report with a column which contains either a string such as "N/A" or a number such as 12. A user exports the report to Excel. In Excel the numbers are formatted as text.
I already tried to set the value as CDbl which returns error for the cells containing a string.
The requirement is to export the column to Excel with the numbers formatted as numbers and the strings such as "N/A' in the same column as string.
I created am inventory table with few columns say, Servername, version, patching details, etc
I want a tracking of the table.
Let's say people are asked to modify the base table and I want a complete capture of the details modified and the session of the user ( ) who (system_user) is actually modifying the details.
I am trying to insert bulk data into main table from staging table in sql server 2012. If any error comes, this total activity is rollbacked. I don't want that to happen. I want to know the records where ever the problem persists, and the rest has to be inserted.
I have a scenario where I have to Update a table with date when there are new records in another table
For example:
I load ODS table with the data from a file in SSIS. the file has CustomerID and other columns.
Now, when there is new record for any customerID in Ods, then Update the dbo table with the most recent record for every CustomerID(i.e. update the date column in dbo for that customerID). Also Include an Identifier that relates back to the ODS table. How do I do this?
In my database/MY SERVER (SQL7/Win2K), I run a simple query with a Table/10000 rows (without cluster index): SELECT * FROM TABLE it take over 30s. Why it's slow? How can I check for reason?

Please could you tell me how big sql tables are when people refer to them as small, medium and large? Preferably in terms of disk space or rows (each row in my table will contain a standard length job advert and 20 additional columns with an average of 8 characters)
I am using tables with recursive relationships extensively. For example the table tbComponent has a primary key called Co_ID and a foreign key called Co_Co_ID which references the field Co_ID. This allows a component to have unlimited child components, and each child component can have an unlimited number of tiers of children. I have a few question for which I have seen no documentation on.
1. How can I create a view or a SP that will return a component record and all of its children and children's children records down to the last/lowest child record?
2. I need to be able to do a search in this table. Example:
Table: tbComponent Columns: Co_ID Integer Co_Co_ID Integer Co_Name Text Co_Attribute Text Co_Category Text
Note: the data for Co_Category comes from a lookup table with also has a recursive relationship to itself where a category can have an unlimited number of tiers of children categories.
A typical group of records could be something like this:
Co_ID Co_Co_ID Co_Name Co_Attribute Co_Category
1 1 Car Blue Ford 2 1 Body Steel Parts 3 2 Door Front Parts 4 3 Invoice April 1 1999 Accounting
Ok, say there is over a million records in this table. Say I want to query this table and return all of the invoices for cars between March 1 1999 and May 1 1999. Say for example that there are less records where Co_Name has a value of Car then there are records with a value of Invoice, so logically I would set some kind of criteria to limit only invoices with where Co_Name = "Car". That's easy, I can return a result set of all the records Where Co_Name = "Car" and I can hold these in a view or a temp table. Now I need to query this View or temp table and see if it has any children records records Where Co_Name = "Invoice" . The problem is that the Invoice child could be a child record directly under the "Car" record, or 10 levels of children records down. The logic for this would be:
If Co_Name = "Car" Then Select * Where Co_Co_ID = 1, then take all of those record's values in Co_ID and run another statement Where Co_Co_ID = X and so on until there are no more children to search. If any of those records have a value of Invoice in Co_Name then return them.
Please don't give any speeches on Normal Relationship Database design suggesting a typical design using something like a Car table, a parts table, and a invoice table. I used the example above to demonstrate the dynamics of doing a search on a recursive relationship. I understand relationship theory and a recursive relationship is what we need to use in our situation.
I am fairly new to SQL and I am currently trying to createa SQL table (using Microsoft SQL) that has a recursiverelationship, let me try to explain:I have a piece of Data let's call it "Item" wich may again contain onemore "Items". Now how would I design a set of SQL Tables that arecapable of storing this information?I tried the following two approaches:1.) create a Table "Item" with Column "ItemID" as primary key, somecolums for the Data an Item can store and a Column "ParentItemID". Iset a foreign key for ParentItemID wich links to the primarykey"ItemID" of the same table.2.) create separate Table "Item_ParentItem" that storesItemID-ParentItemID-pairs. Each column has a foreign key linked toprimary key of the "Item" Column "ItemID".In both approaches when I try to delete an Item I get an Exceptionsaying that the DELETE command could not be executed because itviolates a COLUMN REFERENCE constraint. The goal behind these FK_PKrelations is is that when an Item gets deleted, all childItems shouldautomatically be deleted recursively.How is this "standard-problem" usually solved in sql? Or do I inned toimplement the recursive deletion myself using storedprocedures or something ?
I have two table 'Cal_date' and 'RPT_Invoice_Shipped'.Table cal_data has column month_no, start_date and end_date. And table RPT_Invoice_Shipped has columns Day_No, Date, Div_code, Total_Invoiced, Shipped_Value, Line_Shipped, Unit_Shipped, Transaction_Date.
I am using below insert statment to insert data in RPT_Invoice_Shipped table.
insert into [Global_Report_Staging].[dbo].[RPT_Invoice_Shipped] (Day_No, Date, Div_code, Total_Invoiced, Transaction_Date) select , CONVERT(DATE,Getdate()) as Date, LTRIM(RTRIM(div_Code)), sum(tot_Net_Amt) as Total_Invoiced, (dateadd(day, -1, convert(date, getdate()))) from [Global_Report_Staging].[dbo].[STG_Shipped_Invoiced] WHERE CONVERT(DATE,Created_date )=CONVERT(DATE,Getdate()) group by div_code
while inserting in column Day_No in RPT_Invoice_Shipped table, I have to use formula (Transaction_Date-start_date+1) where Transaction_Date from STG_Shipped_Invoiced and start_date from Cal_date table. I was using datepart (mm, Transaction_Date) so it gives month_no, and this month_no we can join with month_no of Cal_date table and fetch start_date from Cal_date table, so that we can use start_date for formula (Transaction_Date-start_date+1).
But I am getting difficulty to arrange this in above query. how to achieve this?
