Returning Random Records And NOT Similar (random Questions)
Jul 20, 2005Hi,I need to extract randomly 5 records from the table "Questions". Now I useSELECT TOP 5 FROM Questions ORDERBY NEWID()And it works. The problem is that I need an additional thing: if SQLextracts record with ID=4, then it should not extract record with ID=9,because they are similar. I mean, I'd like something to tell SQL that if itextracts some questions, then it SHOULD NOT extract other ones.How can I do it?Thanks!Luke

Selecting Random Data From Sql Server
Jan 21, 2008I have three tables that are joined together to retrieve a piece of data.Table One has the columns pid1(PK), idTable Two has the columns pid1, qid1, idTable three has columns qid1, question, answerHere is my sql statement:SELECT Table1.pid1, Table2.qid1, Table3.Question FROM Table1 JOIN Table2 ON Table1.pid1=Table2.pid1 JOIN Table3 ON Table2.qid1=Table3.qid1 WHERE Table1.pid=...(N)I put an elipsis because I'm stuck on how to proceed from here. See I need to randomly select a value from column pid1 in table1 then use this value to replace N in the sql statement, then have the statement run and randomly return exactly one piece of data instead.Is this possible? How can you randomly get one piece of data from joining three table without a WHERE CLAUSE.

Apr 24, 2001Hello.
I need to select a random record from TABLE. It might look easy with using RAND() function, but the tricky part is that ID's which are the PRIMARY KEY, were assigned as a random number.
So right now ID's in that TABLE look some thing like that: -18745, 45809, 129, -5890023, 487910943, -209, etc...
If any one have any ideas please respond.
Thanks in advance.

Pick Random Records
Jun 25, 2002I need a way to select records at random from a SQL Server 2000 table. If the record I've selected at random meets a few simple conditions (column X <> 'A' and column Y == 'Z') then return this record and get the next. Ideally I'd be able to do this in a stored proc where I'd call it with:
parameter 1: table name
parameter 2: number of random records to get
parameter 3: value for condition 1
parameter 4: value for condition 2
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Cant Work Out This SQL To Return 4 Random Records
Feb 10, 2007I've got a product table in SQL 2000 that contains say these rows:
ProductID intProductName varcharIsSpecial bit
I want to always return 4 random specials from a query and can do this fine by using:
SELECT TOP 4 ProductID,ProductNameFROM Products WHERE IsSpecial = 1ORDER BY NEWID()
This works ok if there are 4 products marked as specials but the problem is i always need 4 records returned but if only 2 products are marked as special then only 2 records are returned.
What i really need is something in there that says if <4 records are returned then just add random non-special products to make the total products returned up to 4. So it should always be 4 records but preference is given to specials if you see what i mean?
Is this possible?
Thanks

View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL Server 2012 :: Return Random Records In A Table-valued Function?
Dec 19, 2013My overarching goal is to generate sets of random Symptom records for each Enrollee in a drug study, so that for each cycle (period of time), the code will insert a random number of random records for each enrollee.
I'm trying to return a number of random records from a table, but inside a table-valued function... (which could be my problem).
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.ufn_GetTopSymptoms (
@enrollID INT
, @CTCVersion VARCHAR(20)
, @NumRecords INT
)
RETURNS TABLE
[Code] ....
But that ORDER BY NEWID() clause is illegal apparently, because here's the error it throws:
Msg 443, Level 16, State 1, Procedure ufn_GetTopSymptoms, Line 13
Invalid use of a side-effecting operator 'newid' within a function.
I was hoping I could return a set of enrollmentIDs and then use CROSS APPLY to generate a random set of records for each enrollmentID... is this not possible with APPLY? I was trying to avoid using a cursor...
The idea is basically to create all the Symptom records for all the patients in treatment cycle at once by using Enrollee OUTER APPLY dbo.ufn_GetTopSymtoms(dbo.Enrollment.EnrolleeID)
but that's clearly not working. Is there a way to do this without resorting to a cursor?

Aug 11, 2015Table1 contains fields Groupid, UserName,Category, Dimension
Table2 contains fields Group, Name,Category, Dimension (Group and Name are not in Table1)
So basically I need to read the records in Table1 using Groupid and each time there is a Groupid then select records from Table2 where Table2.Category in (Select Catergory from Table1)
and Table2.Dimension in (Select Dimension from Table1)
In Table1 There might be 10 Groupid records all of which are different.

Thanks in advance.
Selecting Like Records
Aug 31, 2006This might be a simple question. I have a LIKE statement that is working fine, however I am not sure if something else is possible.
I can pull all records on a query for a person's name with a parameter value of "MARTIN". It will also pull records for "LYNN MARTIN". However, what if I would like to have that search also pull "LYNN M MARTIN"? Currently "LYNN MARTIN" is not finding "LYNN M MARTIN".
When the end user wants to search on LYNN MARTIN and that is what they input, I want SQL to find all records that match LYNN MARTIN and also find records that HAVE LYNN % MARTIN.
I hope this make sense? I guess I need to build my select statement using a WHERE LIKE statement, but I am not sure of the syntax.
Selecting Distinct Records
Sep 1, 2007Hi,
I'm just wondering if someone can help me with some SQL syntax stuff.I want to take this sql statement:
"SELECT TOP 50 tblProfile.chName, tblProfile.intCount FROM tblProfile, tblLinks WHERE (tblLinks.MemberID = tblProfile.MemberID) ORDER BY tblLinks.dtDateAdded DESC;"
and select only unique "chName's" records
