Hi,
I have 2 Tables
Table 1, Row 1
1. Id = 1
2. GraphPoints = 023, 045, 078 (text - data type)
I need to move data to Table 2.
Table 2 should have
1st row
1. Id = 1
2. GraphPoint = 023 (float data type)
2nd row
1. Id = 1
2. GraphPoint = 045 (float data type)
and so on
How do I do that?
Thanks.
As part of xml parsing, I use multicast to direct output of nodes to their corresponding relational tables and I do have a comma-delimited list for some nodes which basically needs to be converted into rows as illustrated below
ID Products
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 12, 45
2 10, 20
and I would like to have results as
ID Products
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 12
1 45
2 10
2 20
I would appreciate if someone could offer me some guidance here.
I want to allow visitors to filter a list of events to show only those belonging to categories selected from a checklist.
Here is an approach I am trying:
TABLE Events(EventID int, Categories varchar(200))
EventID Catetories
--------------------------
1 ‘6,8,9’
2 ‘2,3’
PROCEDURE ListFilteredEvents
@FilterList varchar(200) -- contains ‘3,5’
AS
SELECT EventID FROM Events
WHERE (any value in Categories) IN @FilterList
Result:
EventID
----------
2
How can I select all records where any value in the Categories column
matches a value in @FilterList. In this example, record 2 would be
selected since it belongs to category 3, which is also in @FilterList.
I’ve looked at the table of numbers approach, which works when
selecting records where a column value is in the parameter list, but I
can’t see how to make this work when the column itself also contains a
comma delimited list.
Can someone suggest an approach?
Any examples would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I have a complex query where each row in the final dataset is a
product.
However each product has a number of authors associated with it.
What I
would like to do is have a query/subroutine join the authors to the
product,
as a string:
ProductID
Title
Authors
1 The Sacred and the Profane John Rieggle, George
Alexi
2 Dancing

Brown, Peter Kay, Paul
Dwebinski
Products

ProductID
Title
Authors

AuthorID
Name
Product Authors

AuthorID
ProductID
Is this at all
possible?
Thanks

Hi,
I have the following query:
SELECT *
FROM News INNER JOIN
Newsletters ON News.ID = Newsletters.fkNewsID
My problem is that fkNewsID can contain a comma delimited list of various IDs. Is there a way to properly do the join in this case?
Hello any MS SQL experts out there! please help if you can. i'm trying to run a subquery
within a query to keep myself from having to loop over the original query on display and
then run additional queries to get the further info. here's the setup. i have two tables:
persons table
column: name (varchar)
column: vehicleids (varchar)
vehicles table
column: id (int pk)
column: vehiclename (varchar)
- The persons table is a list of peoples' names and what kind of vehicle/s they own.
- The persons.vehicleids field is a comma-delimited list of one or more integers which correspond to the vehicles.id field.
- The vehicles table contains a list of vehicles like car, bicycle, motorcycle, etc, distinguished by the vehicles.id field.
The result i want returned by the query is:
NAME - VEHICLES
Joe Somebody - car,bicycle
Sheila Johnson - van,pogostick,motorcycle
John Nobody - skateboard,car
The query i'm trying to run to get this result is:
Code Snippet
SELECT pe.name,
(
SELECT ve.vehiclename
FROM vehicles ve
WHERE CAST(ve.id AS VARCHAR) IN (pe.vehicleids)
) AS vehicles
FROM persons pe
ORDER BY pe.name
It returns the persons names in the first column, but only returns vehicle names in the
second column when there's a single id in the persons.vehicleids field. if there's more
than one integer in the field, it returns an empty string.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I do have the option of table restructuring if
its necessary, but I'm not looking for a stored procedure solution or a temp table
solution. Any takers? I would be in the kharmic debt of anyone providing a workable
avenue.
Thank you,
Tyler
Have 2 tables in SQL Server 05 DB:
First one is MyList
user_id -> unique value
list -> comma-delimited list of user_ids
notes -> random varchar data
Second one is MyProfile
user_id -> unique value
name
address
email
phone
I need a stored proc to return rows from MyProfile that match the comma-delimited contents in the "list" column of MyList, based on the user_id matched in MyList. The stored proc should receive as input a @user_id for MyList then return all this data.
The format of the comma-delimited data is as such (all values are 10-digit alphanumerics):
d25ef46bp3,s46ji25tn9,p53fy76nc9
The data returned should be all the columns of MyProfile, and the columns of MyList (which will obviously be duplicated for each row returned).
Thank you!

I am trying to pass a comma delimited llist of names to a stored procedure. I am getting a syntax error and I can't seem to figure out why. When i plug the names by hand into my select statement in query analyzer it all works fine.
Just a little background so i don't have to put all the code in... the list of name is built dynamically.
Below are all the code snippets. Thanks for your help in advance.
The is the list of names and the call to the stored procedure:
Code:
employeeList = 'name1','name2',name3','name4','name5'
SQL="sp_REVIEW @ACTION='lde', @CURRENT_USER='" & currentUser & "', " &_
"@EMPLOYEE_LIST='" & employeeList & "'"
Here is the stored procedure
Code:
SELECT ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME, ww.LAST_NAME + ', ' + ww.FIRST_NAME as employeeName,
ww1.DIVISION + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER_DESC as department
FROM WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_PEOPLE_V ww
LEFT JOIN WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_DEPARTMENTS_V ww1 ON ww.DEPARTMENT_ID = ww1.ORG_ID
WHERE ww.SEARCHABLE = 1 AND ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IS NOT NULL AND ww.PERSON_TYPE = 'Employee'
AND (ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IN (@EMPLOYEE_LIST)
OR ww.DEPARTMENT_ID IN (SELECT ud.department_id
FROM USER_DEPARTMENT ud
WHERE ud.nt_id = @CURRENT_USER))
ORDER BY ww.LAST_NAME, ww.FIRST_NAME
I have a stored procedure that I want to use to update multiple records. I'm using ASP and the request form collection is returning values in a comma delimited list.
Example:
name1 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
name2 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
name3 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
Here is how I wrote my stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Sp_Update_ABR_Record
(
@abrID int,
@ddo varchar(50),
@ay varchar(50),
@strategy varchar(10),
@budgacct varchar(10),
@budgobj varchar(10),
@origamt
varchar(50),
@incrdecr varchar(50),
@review char(10),
@abrdetlsID varchar(50)
)
AS
UPDATE DIM_ABR_REQ_HDR
SET ABR_review = @review
WHERE ABR_ID = @abrID
UPDATE DIM_ABR_REQ_DETLS
SET ABR_DETLS_DDO = @ddo, ABR_DETLS_AY = @ay,
ABR_DETLS_STRATEGY = @strategy, ABR_DETLS_BUDG_ACCT = @budgacct,
ABR_DETLS_BUDG_OBJ = @budgobj, ABR_DETLS_FUND_ORIG_AMT = convert(money, @origamt), ABR_DETLS_FUND_INCR_DECR = convert(money, @incrdecr)
WHERE
ABR_DETLS_ID = @abrdetlsID
GO
The second update is where the comma delimited list needs to be handled. The first update is only updating one field once.
Is there a way to write the procedure to handle the comma delimited list? Or, is the way I have the stored procedure okay and I just need to handle the comma delimited list within the ASP code? I'm not sure which way I can accomplish this?
Thanks for any help.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need some help with a stored procedure to insert multiple rows into a join table from a checkboxlist on a form.

I parse the selected values of the checkboxlist into a comma delimited list that is then passed with other parameters to the stored proc.

Hi
I wondered if anyone could help me. I have a table that holds an ID in the first column then a list of values split by commas in the 2nd column i.e.:
IDColumn: 1
2ndCoumn: 1stvalue, 2ndvalue, 3rdvalue, 4thvalue
I am trying to return as a dataset of this that shows the ID as column 1 then each value in the 2nd column as individual columns if I use SELECT LEFT('2ndColumn,PATINDEX(',',2ndColum)-1) I can return the first value as a column but then can't return any further values individually after the first column, I am just learning the new functionality in SSIS so not sure whether this would be my answer as apposed to T-SQL, if anyone has any advice on this it would be greatly appreciated?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, I need to search a column in my database (varchar:50) that contains a comma delimited string of numbers (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10). Currently, I am doing the following SQL query:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE clubs_belongs_to LIKE '%1%'
Where 1 is the number I'm searching for. The problem with the query above is that it returns records that contain 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, etc. in the clubs_belongs_to field. I want the query to only return those people who belong to club number 1, not 10, 11, 12, etc. Please help. Thanks in advance. I have tried using IN instead of LIKE, but that didn't seem to get the results I wanted either.
I'd like to ask how you would get the OUTPUT below from the TABLE below:

id category
1 A
2 C
3 A
4 A
5 B
6 C
7 B
OUTPUT:
category count id's
A 3 1,3,4

C 2 2,6
The code would go something like:
Select category, count(*), .... as id's
from TABLE
group by category
I just need to find that .... part.
I posted this originally in the incorrect forum I believe so I am reposting this in here which I believe is the proper place.

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out if it's good design practice to have several pieces of data in a one column. I explain by example. Let's say you build a movie site. Each movie can belong to several categories. A movie can be Action, Adventure, Fantasy and Drama all at once. Assume a database table with all the movies and another table with all the categories. Now how would I associate one movie with several categories? Would it be OK if I add a Category field in the movie table and then add several categories in that, delimited by commas? Sort of like below:
movie_title | movie_rating | category_name--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Pirates of the Carribean | PG-13 | Action,Adventure,FantasyEvil Dead | Unrated | Horrorand so on ...I can then query the database with a LIKE query if I want to select all movies of a certain category. Personally, I don't like this approach to much, but I can't think of another way to achieve this. Well, there is one other, but I like that one even less. I could create another table that links each movie to a category, but his way each movie with several categories would get a new row. Using the table above, Pirates would get three rows in that table. One with Action, one with Adventure and one with Fantasy. Get my drift? It all seems counter-intuitive. Thoughts?
Thanks :o)
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone might be able to say how I could export data captured via a view into a comma delimited csv file.
So far I have tried using BCP to access my view and export to a CSV file, but the CSV file isn't comma delimited. I tried finding examples but couldn't see what I should do to have a comma delimited file. (I'm getting a bit tired now, so I might be missing something!)
I have created a bat file containing the following code:
bcp "TestDB..GA_FSM_DCSF_Extract" out "C:GA_FSM_DCSF_Extract.csv" -fexport.fmt -e "C:error.log" -c -T -S srckvzg2j -r
Any help / pointers would be much appreciated.

Hello, i need to load some data from a long comma delimited text file, How can a i do that, using t-sql?, thanks for your help!!!!!
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi. Im new to SQL and I need to export a SQL table as a comma delimited text file which is straight forward. However two of the fields are integers and I need these to be right justified with zero's.
In Access I would use something like format(columnname, "00000000") to get it to work, but SQL Server doesn't like this.
How can I do this?
I am struggling on using bcp to import data. Here is my steps:
1. I created a Test database on my localhost
2. In the Test database, I created a Test table, the query is here for your convenience:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[network_group_name] [varchar](128) NULL,
[IP] [varchar](15) NULL,
[OS] [varchar](128) NULL,
[Code] ....
I then create the format file used in bcp:
bcp Test.dbo.Test format nul -c -t, -f C:RXieSQLTest.fmt –T
Here is the format file:
9.0
8
1 SQLCHAR 0 12 "," 1 id ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 128 "," 2 network_group_name SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 15 "," 3 IP SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
[Code] ...
The data file is called 20150902FullTest.rpt and the first couple lines (first line is the header and followed by two rows) are posted here:
network_group_name,IP,OS,App_Name,vuln_name,host_score,recordswritten
Domestic,10.216.56.88,Windows XP SP3,Adobe / Macromedia Flash Player,APSB14-17: Adobe Flash Player CVE-2014-0537 Vulnerability,4350,2015-09-01 09:55:07.720

With the format file and the data file, I use the following bcp command:
bcp Test.dbo.Test in C:RxieSQL20150902FullTest.rpt -f C:RxieSQLTest.fmt -T
I got the following error messages:

Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid character value for cast specification

I do want to mention here is the rpt file contains three BOM characters EF BB BF at the beginning of the file.
Hi,I'm sure this is a common problem.. to create a single field from awhole column, where each row would be separated by a comma.I can do this for a specified table, and column.. and I've created afunction using VBA to achieve a more dynamic (and very slow) solution..so I would like to implement it using a user defined function in sql server.The problems I'm facing are, that I can't use dynamic sql in afunction.. and I also can't use temporary tables which could build up a'standard' table from parameters given to then perform the function on.So, with these limitations, what other options do I have?Cheers,Chris

I have a table in which I want to create a delimited list of values from one field which I will be using for validation.
How can I do this without using a cursor to build the string. The SQL would be something like:

I'm looking to return on string like -

I have a table that is used to build rules. The rules point to other columns in other tables and usually contain only one value (i.e. ABC). But one of the options is to add a comma-separated list of SSNs (i.e. 123123123,012012012,112231122). I am trying to build a single query that allows me to leverage that list to get multiple rows from another table.
This obviously works:
SELECT * FROM vw_Person_Profile P (NOLOCK)
WHERE P.PrsnPIISSN_Chr IN ('123123123','012012012','112231122')
But this does not:
SELECT * FROM vw_Person_Profile P (NOLOCK)
WHERE P.PrsnPIISSN_Chr IN (
SELECT '''' + REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(4000),txtFieldValue), ',', ''',''') + ''''
FROM MassProcessing_Rules PR
WHERE PR.intRuleID = 10
)
Hi,
Good evening! I have a problem. I have a namelist coming from a distribution list of an active directory. When I converted it to csv file, the members reside in just one column and separated by a comma. I want the names to be separated in a row one by one. I tried it on excel and I used the transpose column but to no avail. My last resort is to import it on sql but the names on the column was cut and not complete. Do you have any idea how to do this. Your help is highly appreciated.
this is the sample file..
names
kelly.yap, lizzy.fox, yahoo, finance.dep, hope.miller, porly.john
the maximum names in a row is 566.

I need to import comma delimited text files into sql tables. in one of the column, there is a comma in the string itself. e.g.
Cust_ID Name Phone Address1 Address2
Date that I have:
001,juia, anderson,4694568855,,Cedar Spring
The data does not have double quote as text qualifiers. but as you see, on the Name column, there is a comma, which is not a delimiter. can anybody give any suggestions on how i can deal with that? i would appreciate it so much.

Dear SQL,
Lets say I have a field: User_Names
and it can have more than one name
example: "Yovav,John,Shon"
How can I select all the records that has "Yovav" in them ?
I try some like this:
SELECT * FROM User_Table WHERE User_Names IN ('Yovav')
but it only works if the field User_Names only has "Yovav" in it with no extras...
is there some SQL function to tell if string is found in a field ?
Any hope 4 me ?
