I'm still having a problem getting a select statement to work. I have posted the script on a web site, along with the table definitions, and sample output at the bottom. The problem is when I set @total_debits, I get 0 instead of 11580.95. I think the problem is that the format of the @end_date or the @balance_date is the problem. Please take a look at it. I posted a question on Friday about this, and tried to give a "snippet" and mistyped it. So here it is. Please give me all feed back.

Hello, I run the DTS to copy data from Progress to SQL Server. How can match/convert the date variables to check. The field p-date as format 'mm-dd-year' . It has the value of 10/09/2001. The field s-date as varchar format. It has the value 2001-10-09. How can use the where condition ( Select ...... WHERE p-date = s-date.)
My goal is to select values from the same date range for a month on month view to compare values month over month. I've tried using the date trunc function but I'm not sure what the best way to attack this is. My thoughts are I need to somehow select first day of every month + interval 'x days' (but I don't know the syntax).In other words, I want to see
Select Jan 1- 23rd feb 1-23rd march 1-23rd april 1-23rd ,value from table
So my data column [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is defined as a DATE column. I am trying to SELECT from my table where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is today's date.
Is this not working because GETDATE() is like a timestamp format? How can I get this to work to return those rows where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is equal to today's date?
I hope someone can answer this, I'm not even sure where to start looking for documentation on this. The SQL query I'm referencing is included at the bottom of this post.
I have a query with 3 select statements joined together like tables. It works great, except for the fact that I need to declare a variable and make it a table within two of those 3. The example is below. You'll see that I have three select statements made into tables A, B, and C, and that table A has a variable @years, which is a table.
This works when I just run table A by itself, but when I execute the entire query, I get an error about the "declare" keyword, and then some other errors near the word "as" and the ")" character. These are some of those errors that I find pretty meaningless that just mean I've really thrown something off.
So, am I not allowed to declare a variable within these SELECT tables that I'm creating and joining?
Thanks in advance, Andy

have a table with students details in it, i want to select all the students who joined a class on a particular day and then i need another query to select all students who joined classes over the course of date range eg 03/12/2003 to 12/12/2003.
i have tried with the following query, i need help putting my queries together select * from tblstudents where classID='1' and studentstartdate between ('03/12/2004') and ('03/12/2004')
when i run this query i get this message
Server: Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
the studentstartdate field is set as datetime 8 and the date looks like this in the table 03/12/2004 03:12:15
I'm relatively new to SQL, and I'm trying to write some procedure.. but this wasn't working.. :(
I tried to make several smaller tables from one big table based on some value of one of the column. Here's my procedure:
USE WAREHOUSE DECLARE @COUNTER NUMERIC, @TBLTTL CHAR(11) SELECT @COUNTER = 1 WHILE (@COUNTER <40) BEGIN SET @TBLTTL= 'Inventory' + CAST(@COUNTER AS char(2)) SELECT * INTO @TBLTTL <== *error refers to this line* FROM MAIN WHERE invtype=@COUNTER SELECT @COUNTER = @COUNTER +1 END
The error message that I got was: Incorrect syntax near '@TBLTTL' (look at * above)
What should I do if I want to create a loop which would create (or later update) new smaller tables automatically? Any suggestions are welcomed.
I have two tables that I am pulling data from: an item table and a sales table. Almost all of the information comes from the item table (item description, location, amount on hand). The last field wanted is Year-To-Date sales. I can pull the sales field from the sales table, which gives me all sales from the creation of the db. I need to be able to run a date variable of This Year on that sales field only. I have a date field I can reference off of in the sales table.

My client will upload a file to a FTP folder regularly, but the time patten is unknown, only thing i know is he'll use today's date as the file name. for example, he uploaded a file 'wk070705_id.txt' today, but i don't know when the next file will be uploaded. so how can i write a package like, eveytime when he upload a new file (for example if he upload a file 'wk070708_id.txt'), i can import the data into my table? i am a very newbie of SSIS, it would be perfect if i can get a full script for this. thanks in advance with appreciation!

I just want to get the sum of a table's column into a variable, in a stored procedure. The best I can do is SET @TotalBalance = SELECT SUM(Balance) FROM AccountDetails Not good enough, of course.
Hi, I am trying to get the login name of a user, trim off some characters, which works fine, convert this to a string variable, which works fine and then use this variable in an sql select parameter. I've tried countless things and am not sure why my variable @NewString is not working in the Select command. If I add a default value I know is present, it works, but it can't seem to pick up the variable value of NewString. It prints out as expected in the response.write statement, but I really need it to connect to the corresponding value in the database. Any ideas are greatly appreciated-code below. Thanks, Liz

Is there anyway to use a variable to define a column in a select statement. I can put the variable in but I'm sure it will be read as a literal instead of the column.

Hi, I've searched quite a bit for help with this syntax but have given up. I need help with the where clause of a query using SQL SERVER that selects records a certain number of days before the current date. I have tried this and it's incorrect syntax: WHERE (fldDate < ({ fn NOW() - 500 }) Can someone please help me out with correct syntax for this? thanks much.
Hi all can you help me, I know that I am doing some thing wrong. What I need to do is set a variable to the current date so I can use it in a SQL query to an access database. This is what I have so far <script runat="server""> Sub Page_Load dim --all the variables for my sql connections-- dim ff1 As Date then my sql connection and queries sql="SELECT FullRate, " & ff1 &" FROM table1 WHERE hotelnumber = " & hotel This works is I set ff1 as a string and specify the string (my column headings are set as dates in my table) dim ff1 As string ff1="30/01/2006" but I need ff1 to be the current date and is I use ff1 As date it returns time and date Is there any way to set ff1 to the current date in this format "dd/mm/yyyy"
