T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Dynamic Join On EXECUTE Table Column

Jun 23, 2015

Not sure if this is ever going to be possible, but I'm trying to do a dynamic join on EXECUTE, but the execution string has to come from a table column.... i.e

select * from (select table1.theSql,table1.userid from table1 ) as a

inner join (execute a.thesql) as b

on a.userId=b.userid

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Dynamic Column Names For Insert Statement?

Apr 9, 2015

I would like to provide the names of columns in an insert statement from a schema table, so that when running through a number of Bus Rule checks I can reference the schema table and only maintain the columns in the schema table rather than maintain named columns in multiple insert statements. So my query for one check looks like below. I'm using dynamic sql to execute the insert statement. My question is, is there a better way or different way to do this without using dynamic sql? Ie, Is there a way that I can use the columns parameter like this instead?

Insert
('+@columns+',KickoutID) Values('+@columns+',1);

Dynamic code:

Declare @columns as nvarchar(max);
Declare @InvSQL as nvarchar(max);
SELECT @columns =
STUFF ((
SELECT ', [' + name + ']'
FROM syscolumns WHERE id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.table_pvt')

[Code] ....

Dynamic Join Based On Column Value??

May 4, 2007

Hi,

I have three tables.

The "Master table has a recordid, a masterID, a "IsSubField" and other stuff.



I need to do a join to a second table based on the MasterID...



However for each record, if the "IsSubField" has a True value then it has to use table A to JOIN to, where as if it's False, then it uses table B.



Make sense?



Anyone got any pointers?



Thanks in advance

James

Dynamic Column Sorting After Merge Join

Feb 25, 2008



Hello,
I have data coming in from two sources, one being SQL and the other being Oracle. The end result needs to be a CSV file with the columns in a specific order. I have a Data Flow task setup that takes both sources and does a Merge Join on them. I can add a Sort Transformation and manually set the sorting of all 156 columns that end up going to a CSV file destination. However, I have a table setup that holds the names of the 156 columns and the order that the CSV file expects them to be in. I would much rather do this step dynamically as the column names and order may change in the future. Anyone who has used the Sort Transformation for a large number of columns knows how tedious it can be and how adding a column in the middle will cause you to change the sort # for each of the columns that come after it.

So I added a Script Component between the Merge Join and the Flat File Destination hoping that I could alter the order of the columns there. However I added the following code and found that the SortKeyPosition is ReadOnly.


Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)


Dim column As IDTSInputColumn90

For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection



column.SortKeyPosition = 1

Next

End Sub

I was hoping to add some code to get the sort index from my table for each of the columns and set it to the SortKeyPosition. Has anyone out there done this before or seen an example that might point me in the right direction? I've searched for 2 days without coming up with much.

Thanks!

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Retrieve Columns Name As Single Row From Table In Dynamic Way

Dec 27, 2014

I need to retrieve columns names(instead of select * from) as single row from table in dynamic way.

i m using following query.

its working fine while using from selected database. but its not working when i m running from different database.

DECLARE @columnnames varchar(max)
select @columnnames = COALESCE(@columnnames,'')+column_name+',' from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS(nolock)
where table_name='table_20141224'
select @columnnames

I need to pass database name dynamically like using by variable.

Is this possible to use variable after from clause. or any other methods?

eg:

DECLARE @columnnames varchar(max)
DECLARE @variable='db_month11_2014'
select @columnnames = COALESCE(@columnnames,'')+column_name+',' from @VARIABLE.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS(nolock)
where table_name='table_20141224'

Execute Dynamic SQL Stored Proc Without Specifying Table Level Permissions

Sep 17, 2007

I am writing a SQL 2000 stored procedure which uses an €˜EXEC @sqlString€™ statement. The @sqlString is generated at runtime. I want to give as few permissions as possible and currently allow users to access the database tables using only the stored procedures provided. However, with €˜Exec€™ I discover that I need to grant permissions on the actual tables to the users or groups. I would like to avoid this. I would also prefer not having to maintain a separate user with table level permissions and hardcoding the stored procedure with these details.
Is there anyway for me to dynamically generate the required SQL statement within my stored procedure and let SQL know that this stored procedure is allowed to select whatever tables it wants to without having to define permissions on the tables?

Integration Services :: Pass Single Column Of Values From Successful Merge Join To EXECUTE Statement

May 7, 2015

How do I pass a single column of values from a successful merge join to an EXECUTE SQL statement so it can be used with an "IN" criteria of the WHERE clause?  Here's an example of my update statement with two random key values:

UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK IN ("XYZ123", "DEF890")

Is this even possible in SSIS, or am I better off using a loop and running the update EXECUTE SQL Statement for each individual key value, as in the following example?

UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "XYZ123"
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "DEF890"

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Introduce New Select / Join From Another Table Without Duplicating Original Data

Feb 19, 2015

I built a query that brings in 'Discounts' (bolded) to the Order detail by using the bolded syntax below. I started off by running the query without the bolded lines and got exactly what I was looking for but without the ‘Discount’ column. When I tried to add the ‘Discount’ into the query, it duplicated several order lines. Although total ‘Discount’ column ties out to the total amount expected in that column, ‘Total Charges’ are now several times higher than before.

For example, I get 75 records when I run without the bolded syntax and I get several hundred results back when adding back in the bolded syntax when i should still be getting 75 records, just with an additional column ‘PTL Discount’ subtotaled.My question is, how to I introduce a new select or join from another table without duplicating the original data?

select
first_stop.actual_departure ‘Start'
, last_stop.actual_departure 'End'
, last_stop.city_name 'End city'
, last_stop.state 'End state'
, last_stop.zip_code 'End zip'

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Comparing Column Values In Same Table

Jun 16, 2014

How to resolve the below task

create table #temp ( idx int identity(1,1), col1 int, col2 int )

Here i want a flag success or fail on basis of below conditions.

I need to take all the col1 values and then i need to compare to each other.

if any difference found, i need to check difference more than 30, then it should raise the flag as "Failure".

if all the col1 values are ok , then we need to check Col2 values same as above.

--case 1

insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16582,18522

--select * from #temp

--truncate table #temp

Because of difference in col1 values . the value of flag should be fail.

--case 2

insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,17522

Here also the col1 is ok but col2 values have difference so it should be Fail.

Otherwise it should be success.

PIVOT TABLE Dynamic Column Header?

Nov 14, 2007

I am trying to work on a database with 3 tables. To make it easier I have created a couple of temp tables to work out the syntax.

CREATE TABLE #owner
(
[NameId] tinyint IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] varchar(50) NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #owner VALUES ('ME');
INSERT INTO #owner VALUES ('Other');

CREATE TABLE #propertyType
(
[TypeId] tinyint IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] varchar(50) NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #propertyType VALUES ('Home');
INSERT INTO #propertyType VALUES ('Car');

CREATE TABLE #property
(
[NameId] tinyint NOT NULL,
[TypeId] tinyint NOT NULL,
[Value] varchar(50) NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #property VALUES (1,1, 'Blue');
INSERT INTO #property VALUES (1,2, 'Black');
INSERT INTO #property VALUES (2,1, 'Red');
INSERT INTO #property VALUES (2,2, 'Black');

DROP TABLE #owner;
DROP TABLE #propertyType;
DROP TABLE #property

| NameId | Name |
| 1 | ME|
| 2 | other |

| TypeId | Name |
| 1 | Home |
| 2 | Car |

| NameId | TypeId | Value |
| 1 | 1 | Blue |
| 1 | 2 | Black |
| 2 | 1 | Red |
| 2 | 2 | Black |

Where property value is some arbitrary detail. The real propertyType has 50 or 60 rows and not every property has all of the values. I am trying to create a pivot table that would look like so that I can present the data in an easier to understand format:

[Owner | Home | Car ]
[ME | Blue | Black ]
[Other| Red | Black ]

The propertyTypes are added often, and I don't really have the ability to change them. There is a unique constrant on property on nameid and typeid so there will never be two of the same property with the same owner. Any help would be very helpful.

Transact SQL :: How To Insert Dynamic Column Values Of A Table To Variables

I am trying to insert different number of columns into variables.  This is what it does If I use a static columns.

declare @AccountType nvarchar(10)
declare @Total numerical(15,2)
declare @1 numerical (15,2)
declare @2 numerical (15,2)
declare @3 numerical (15,2)

#MonthtoDate  temp table is created using a dynamic pivot query. 

Data looks like this :

Account Type  1 2
3 Total
Type 1 3
0 4 7
Type 2 5
7 1 13

Select @AccountType = AcctType , @Total = MonthToDate, @1 = [1], @2 = [2], @3 = [3]  from #MonthtoDate 

However the issue is with [1],[2],[3] columns. Those are the number of days of the month. If today is the 3rd day of the month, we only need to show 3 days. So the final table has column [1],[2],[3] and @AccountType and @Total .

We want to run this query everyday to get the moth to date values.If we run this tomorrow, it will have 4 date columns [1], [2],[3],[4] and @AccountType and @Total .

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Vary Column Names In Cross Apply Based On Different Columns In Each Table

I am using CROSS APPLY instead of UNPIVOT to unpivot > one column. I am wondering if I can dynamically replace column names based on different tables? The example code that I have working is based on the "Allergy" table. I have thirty more specialty tables to go. I'll show the working code first, then an example of another table's columns to show differences:

select [uplift specialty], [member po],[practice unit name], [final nomination status]
,[final uplift status], [final rank], [final uplift percentage]
,practiceID=row_number() over (partition by [practice unit name] order by Metricname)
,metricname,Metricvalue, metricpercentilerank

[code]....

Rheumatology Table:The columns that vary start with "GDR" and [GDR Percentile Rank] so I'm just showing those:

GDR (nvarchar(255), null)
GDR Percentile Rank (nvarchar(255), null)
GDR PGS (nvarchar(255), null)
GDR Rank Number (nvarchar(255), null)
PMPM (nvarchar(255), null)

[Code] ....

These are imported from an Excel Workbook so that's why all the columns with spaces for now.

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.

Ambiguous Column Names In Multi-Table Join

Jun 21, 2006

Hi all,A (possibly dumb) question, but I've had no luck finding a definitiveanswer to it. Suppose I have two tables, Employees and Employers, whichboth have a column named "Id":Employees-Id-FirstName-LastName-SSNetc.Employers-Id-Name-Addressetc.and now I perform the following join:SELECT Employees.*, Employers.*FROM Employees LEFT JOIN Employers ON (Employees.Id=Employers.Id)The result-set will contain two "Id" columns, so SQL Server willdisambiguate them; one column will still be called "Id", while theother will be called "Id1." My question is, how are you supposed toknow which "Id" column belongs to which table? My intuition tells me,and limited testing seems to indicate, that it depends on the order inwhich the table names show up in the query, so that in the aboveexample, "Id" would refer to Employees.Id, while "Id1" would refer toEmployers.Id. Is this order guaranteed?Also, why does SQL Server use such a IMO brain-damaged technique tohandle column name conflicts? In MS Access, it's much morestraightforward; after executing the above query, you can use"Employees.Id" and "Employers.Id" (and more generally,"TableNameOrTableAlias.ColumnName") to refer to the specific "Id"column you want, instead of "Id" and "Id1" -- the"just-tack-on-a-number" strategy is slightly annoying when dealing withcomplex queries.--Mike S

Importing Excel Sheet Which Have Dynamic Column Name And Dynamic Number Of Columns

Aug 25, 2007

Hi Craig/Kamal,

I got your email address from your web cast. I really enjoyed the web cast and found it to be
very informative.

Our company is planning to use SSIS (VS 2005 / SQL Server 2005). I have a quick question
regarding the product. I have looked for the information on the web, but was not able to find
relevant information.

We are getting Source data from two of our client in the form of Excel Sheet. These Excel sheets
Are generated using reporting services. On examining the excel sheet, I found out that the name
Of the columns contain data itself, so the names are not static such as Jan 2007 Sales, Feb 2007 Sales etc etc.
And even the number of columns are not static. It depends upon the range of date selected by the user.

I wanted to know, if there is a way to import Excel sheet using Integration Services by defining the position
Of column, instead of column name and I am not sure if there is a way for me to import excel with dynamic
Number of columns.

Your help in this respect is highly appreciated!

Thanks,


Hi Anthony, I am glad the Web cast was helpful.

Kamal and I have both moved on to other teams in MSFT and I am a little rusty in that area, though in general dynamic numbers of columns in any format is always tricky. I am just assuming its not feasible for you to try and get the source for SSIS a little closer to home, e.g. rather than using Excel output from Reporting Services, use the same/some form of the query/data source that RS is using.

I suggest you post a question on the SSIS forum on MSDN and you should get some good answers.
