Hello all,
Little layout question. Assume my dataset returns the following data:
A
B
C
D
E
How can I present this data in a table (or list, or matrix) splitted into two columns:
A B
C D
E
Any idea will be very appreciated! Thanks a lot!

hai all,
This is my first question to this forum.
here is my situtation:
I am into report testing I need to test a report for which i have write a query,iam using qery analyser for runing query
Database : sql server
tabel name :job_allocations
column naME :technicain code
Based on techincain code in joballocation tablei need to get technician cost from other table for the particular technician.
Based on the technician code user chooses column will be updated
if single data will be TC01
if more than one then data will be TC01:TC02:TC03
user can choose any number of techincian for a job
MY problem is :How to split tha when there is multiple technician and calculate cost for the job
Ineed it in single excecution query
Table structure

I found string from net how to split column data to row
SELECT A.JbIDFull, A.ProdID, A.OrderQty, A.OtherDetails, A.OrderDate, c.Item FROM
(SELECT JbIDFull, DeptID, ProdID, OrderQty, OtherDetails, OrderDate, LamORSteachType, JBID, RMIDs, RMQty
FROM tblJobCardforProduction WHERE JBID = '2' AND DeptID = '3') A
CROSS APPLY dbo.SplitStringNEW(a.RMIDs,';') b
CROSS APPLY dbo.SplitStringNEW(a.RMQty,'/') c
When I apply one cross apply it's working fine but when i apply for one more column is replacing three time one row, this data i want to split RMIDs and RMQty with same JbIDFull
JbIDFull DeptID ProdID OrderQty RMIDs RMQty
PD-May15-00001 3 2044 10000 PROD-00052 0
PD-May15-00002 3 921 1000 PROD-00052;PROD-00383;PROD-00384 500;600;700
Let me see if I can explain my situation clearly.I have a table with the columns:answer_id, question_id, member_id, answer- answer_id is the primary key for the table.- question_id relates to another table with questions for a user. Thetable holds the question and the possible choices in a varchar fieldseparated by a delimiter.- member_id is self-explanatory- answer is a varchar field of all the choices the user selected,separated by a delimiter.Here is my problem.I am trying to search all members that have answered, say, question_id= 2 where they selected 'brown' as one of their choices.i can do this if they selected ONLY that item, but not multiple items.The problem is this portionanswer in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist.....I need this to be something like....function_to_return_all_separated_answers(answer) in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlistThe current way, it is only returning members that have an answer'Brown', not 'Brown, Blue' in their answer field. Make any sense? So,what I need to do is separate the list of answers and say :select member_id from profile_answers whereANY ANSWER in function_to_split(answer) MATCHES ANY OF THESE (selectvalu from dbo.iter_intlist...It seems I might have to join or something, I am just a little lostright now.Here is my proc.ALTER procedure search_detailed_get_ids@question_id as integer,@answers as varchar(8000),@member_ids ntextasdeclare @v as varchar(8000)--get the delimited string of all possible answersset @v = (select bind_data from profiles_questions where question_id =@question_id)--prepare it for the function only accepting 1 charset @v = replace(@v, '||', '|')--gimme all members that matchselect member_id from profiles_answers where question_id = @question_idand answer in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@v, '|') where listpos in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@answers, ',')))and member_id in (select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@member_ids, ','))returngo

This is probably a very basic question for most people in this group.
How do i split the data in a column in to 2 columns? This can be done in access with an update query but in MS SQL server I am not sure.
Here is an example of what i want to acheive

Hi,
I have a scenario, where I have a string column from database with value as "FTW*Christopher,Lawson|FTW*Bradley,James". In my report, I need to split this column at each " | " symbol and place each substring one below the other in one row of a report as shown below .
"FTW*Christopher,Lawson
FTW*Bradley,James"
Please let me know how can I acheive this?
How to split a column data into multiple rows, below is the requirement...
Create table #t3 (id int, country (varchar(max))
INSERT #t3 SELECT 1,' AU-Australia
MM-Myanmar
NZ-New Zealand
PG-Papua New Guinea
PH-Philippines'
Output should be like below
1 ,AU-Australia
1,MM-Myanmar
1,NZ-New Zealand
1,PG-Paua New Guinea
1,PH-Phlippines
Note: we are getting source data from sqlserver tables.
I googled and found below way but did't get the output as required
SELECT A.id, a.country,
Split.a.value('.', 'VARCHAR(500)') AS String
FROM (SELECT id, country ,
CAST ('<M>' + REPLACE(country, ' ', '</M><M>') + '</M>' AS XML) AS String
FROM #t3) AS A CROSS APPLY String.nodes ('/M') AS Split(a);
I have a table with a string value, where all values are seperated by a space/blank. I now want to use SQL to split all the values and insert them into a different table, which then later will result in deleting the old table, as soon as I got all values out from it.
Old Table:
Code:
ID, StringValue
New Table:
Code:
ID, Value1, Value2
Do note: Value1 is INT, Value2 is of nvarchar, hence Value2 can contain spaces... I just need to split on the FIRST space, then convert index[0] to int, and store index[1] as it is.
I can split on all spaces and just Select them all and add them like so: SELECT t.val1 + ' ' + t.val2... If I cant find the first space that is... I mean, first 2-10 characters in the string can be integer, but does not have to be.Shall probably do it in code instead of SQL?Now I want to run a query that selects the StringValue from OldTable, splits the string by ' ' (a blank) and then inserts them into New Table.
Code:
SELECT CASE CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1)
WHEN 0 THEN OldTable.stringvalue
ELSE SUBSTRING(OldTable.stringvalue, 1, CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) - 1)
END
AS FirstWord
FROM OldTable
Found an example using strange things like CHARINDEX..But issue still remains, because the first word is of integer, or it does not have to be...If it isn't, there is not "first value", and the whole string shall be passed into "value2".How to detect if the very first character is of integer type?
Code:
@declare firstDigit int
IF ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) = 1
set @firstDigit = CAST(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int)
ELSE
set @firstDigit = -1
[code]....
I have a table that has the following structure:
EntryID int,
Categories varchar(200)
values look like:
541,'A,B,C'
345,'B,C'
234,'A,C'
657,'D,E'
435,'D'
what I want to do is extract the Categories column to a normalized separate table:
541,'A'
541,'B'
541,'C'
345,'B' ....
I found the split using the tally table useful to split one-by-one, but how can it be applied when you are referring to a table?
Hi ,
I have two tables within a SQL database. The 1st table has an identified column and column which lists one of more email identifers for a second table,
e.g.
ID Email
-- ----------
1 AS1 AS11
2 AS2 AS3 AS4 AS5
3 AS6 AS7
The second table has a column which has an email identifier and another column which lists one email address for that particular identifier, e.g.
ID EmailAddress
--- ------------------
AS1 abcstu@emc.com
AS2 abcstu2@emc.com
AS3 abcstu3@emc.com
AS4 abcstu4@em.com
AS5 abcstu5@emc.com
AS6 abcstu6@emc.com
AS7 abcstu7@emc.com
AS11 abcstu8@emc.com
I need to create a stored procedure or function that:
1. Selects an Email from the first table, based on a valid ID,
2. Splits the Email field of the first table (using the space separator) so that there is an array of Emails and then,
3. Selects the relevant EmailAddress value from the second table, based on a valid Email stored in the array
Is there any way that this can be done directly within SQL Server using a stored procedure/function without having to use cursors?
Many Thanks,

Import.csv file looks like,
TABLE_NAME DESC CODE
tab1 table1 A
tab1 table1 B
tab1 table1 C
tab2 table2 D
tab2 table2 E
tab2 table2 G...
First column values are table names which are already exists in target database. Next two columns[Desc],[Code] data gets populate from CSV file to table.
In this scenario, how to load tab1 data into the same table in destination and so on.
Which way will be more standard to accomplish this task? If its a script task using C#, looking for clear script to identify a value changes in the first column.
What's the best way to convert a large set of records from a simple schema where all fields are in one table to a schema where fields are split across two tables? The two table setup is necessary for reasons not worth getting into here.
Doing this via cursor is pretty straightforward, but is there a comparable set-based solution?
Here are sample create table commands. Obviously, the example below is simplified for discussion purposes.
-- One record from here will produce a record in TargetParentRecords and a record in TargetChildRecords for a total of two records.
CREATE TABLE OriginalSingleTableRecords (
ID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
ColumnA VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
ColumnB VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_OriginalSingleTableRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ID)
)
CREATE TABLE TargetParentRecords (
ParentID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
ColumnA VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_TargetParentRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ParentID)
)
-- Each row in this table must link to a TargetParentRecords row
CREATE TABLE TargetChildRecords (
ID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
ParentID INT NOT NULL, -- References TargetParentRecords.ParentID
ColumnB VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_TargetChildRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ID)
)
Hi,
I have Data split into 3 text files with 3 fields repeated in each to link then (key). I want to import this data into one table.
I used DTS to create 3 tables with the data. Now i want to combine the 3 tables into only one (that i already created). How can i do this? Note: the field names in the source tables are different from the destination table.
Thanks
Guy
I have a source table which I'm splitting 3 ways based on a column value, but the target is the same OLE DB destination table. One conditional path is to a Multi-Cast two way split to same OLE DB gestination table. The default split is to a flat file for logging unknown record types. For a test I have data for only the 3 column values I want, but I'm having trouble with the process completing. If I pre-filter the data going into the source table by one or two values I can get the process to complete even if one split is to the multicast. If I include all three data types in the source table, I get different results depending on the order in which the conditions are specified - sometimes only two split paths are executed; other times all three are executed, but in some cases only one path of the multicast split is executed. In any case, when the three source data types are used in the test, the process never competes - the pathes are in a yellow condition and never complete.
Am I creating some kind of deadlock situation by having the source data directed to the same target table via 4 splits? Any help you can provide is appreciated. Thanks.
So I have been trying to get mySQL query to work for a large database that I have. I have (lets say) two tables Table_One and Table_Two. Table_One has three columns: Type, Animal and TestID and Table_Two has 2 columns Test_Name and Test_ID. Example with values is below:
**TABLE_ONE**
Type Animal TestID
-----------------------------------------
Mammal Goat 1
Fish Cod 1
Bird Chicken 1
Reptile Snake 1
Bird Crow 2
Mammal Cow 2
Bird Ostrich 3
**Table_Two**
Test_name TestID
-------------------------
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_2 2
Test_2 2
Test_3 3
In Table_One all types come under one column and the values of all Types (Mammal, Fish, Bird, Reptile) come under another column (Animals). Table_One and Two can be linked by Test_ID
I am trying to create a table such as shown below:
Test_Name Bird Reptile Mammal Fish
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Test_1 Chicken Snake Goat Cod
Test_2 Crow Cow
Test_3 Ostrich
This should be my final table. The approach I am currently using is to make multiple instances of Table_One and using joins to form this final table. So the column Bird, Reptile, Mammal and Fish all come from a different copy of Table_one.
For e.g
Select
Test_Name AS 'Test_Name',
Table_Bird.Animal AS 'Birds',
Table_Mammal.Animal AS 'Mammal',
Table_Reptile.Animal AS 'Reptile,
Table_Fish.Animal AS 'Fish'
From Table_One
[Code] .....
The problem with this query is it only works when all entries for Birds, Mammals, Reptiles and Fish have some value. If one field is empty as for Test_Two or Test_Three, it doesn't return that record. I used Or instead of And in the WHERE clause but that didn't work as well.
Hi all, I am not over familiar with SQL, I am a VB programmer, simply I need to achieve the following within Enterprise Manager.
I have 2 tables, different designs, different number of rows, I simply need to check whether the contents of a column in the first table is in a column in the second table, just simply a table/column to table/column data check for the same data content.
Easy Peasy for you guys, any help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,
We've got a source file which owns three different values: 'A','B','M'.
Where 'A' stands for "New Rows" and 'B' for "Delete rows" and 'M' for 'Update rows'
Using Conditional Split task we can redirect each subset into a OLEDB Destination but we are wondering how can we do the same using only one OLEDB? We've got only one table.
Thanks for your input and time,
If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
I like to push 1 column into 2 different columns just to show it on the screen. So no import in another table ore something like that.

So i can bound a table directly to that column!Is this possible with SQL, and how can i build it.Thanks.

I have a requirement of table partitioning. we have 10 years of data on a table which is 30 billion up rows on 2005 server we are upgrading it to 2014. we have to keep 7 years of data. there is no keys on table or date column. since its a huge amount of data and many users its slow down the process speed. we are thinking to do partition on 7 years for Quarterly based. but as i said there is no date column on table we have to use reference table to get date. is there a way i can do the partitioning with out adding date column on table? also does partition will make query faster?
I have think three ways to do it.
1. leave as it is.
2. 7 years partition on one server
3. 3 years partition on server1 and 4 years partition on server2 (for 4 years is snapshot better?)
I am studying indexes and keys. I have a table that has a fixed width of data to be loaded in the first column which is parsed in a view based on data types within the fixed width specifications.
Example column A:
(name phone house cost of house,zipcodecountystatecountry)
-a view will later split this large varchar string based
column b: is the source filename of the data load (varchar 256)
....
a. would there be a benefit of adding a clustered or nonclustered index (if so which/point in direction on why)
b. is there benefit of making one of these two columns a primary key (millions of records) or for adding a 3rd new column as a pk?
c. view: this parses the data in column a so it ends up looking more like "name phone house cost of house zipcode county state country" each having their own column.
-any pros/cons of adding indexes (if so which) to the view instead of the tables or both for once the data is parsed?
I am trying to create a table that holds info about a user; with the usual columns for firstName, lastName, etc.... no problem creating the table or it's columns, but how can I "restrict" the values of my State column in the 'users' table so that it only accepts values from the 'states' table?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a column that returns client numbers.
The client numbers are 4-6 characters in length. A period (.) is added to the end of the client number, and then one last digit (1-4) is affixed at the end to denote a categorization.
In SQL, I need to figure out how to divide these results into two columns, one for the client number and one for the categorization number.
EG: client #4334.1 would become 4334 for client # and 1 for categorization number
or
Client #424561.3 would become 424561 for Client # and 3 for categorization number.
I have to strip out the period in the process and leave myself with just the numeric characters divided into two columns.
Ive been researching my brains out on string queries and substring queries and I can't figure out how to parse out the period and/or to have SQL understand that I need everything BEFORE the period for one column and everything AFTER the period for the second.
Is it possible to do this? I really need help on this one.
Thank you :)
