XML With Dynamic Attributes Based On Column Values
Apr 10, 2007
I have been banging my head against the wall for TWO days. I have
gone back and forth with a very patient guy on thescripts.com. You
can see the ridiculous thread here
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/threadnav628777-1-10.html
If you have time, at least peruse that so we don't go in circles.
Anyway, if you guys can help me solve this, I will be forever
grateful!!
Here is the "basic" problem:
Here is an example for TWO different entities in the database.
EntityID XmlFieldName Value
1 City Austin
1 State TX
1 Country US
2 CityName Los Angeles
2 StateCode CA
2 CountryCode US
2 Zip 111111
Here is how the two different results should be
where EntityID = 1
<Address City="Austin" State="TX" Country="US"/>
where EntityID = 2
<Address CityName="Los Angeles" StateCode="TX" CountryCode="US"
Zip="111111"/>
Notice how the attribute names (City or CityName, State or StateCode,
etc) are based off the XmlFieldName and I don't know in advance what
the possible values will be? I also don't know how many attributes
there will be, but they can be different per entity, depending on how
they have set up an address in our application.
Another thing to note, is that I kind of have this working in an sproc
using PIVOT and generating a table with the values that have the
correct dynamic column names (you can see this on my other thread I
posted above) but I REALLY need this to not use dynamic SQL (so can
use it in a function) if possible and be able to be used in a select
statement, whether it be a temp table as I would like to get a result
set back that I can do a FOR XML RAW on. If this is confusing, it is
because I am delerious. OR is there a way to return a table from an
SPROC that has dynamic columns built?
Please help!! Thanks so much!!!

I'd like to create a table that will store different order items. Several order items make up one single order. Order items can have 0 or more children (max depth will never be deeper than one). Order items can have up to 150 attributes/values. The way I think this should be done is using XML column instead of the EAV type of model. My table structure currently looks like this:
* child_order_item_id (PK)
* parent_order_item_id (FK to child_order_item_id)
* order_id (FK to Order table)
* product_id (FK to Product table)
* price
* attribute_XML
How my attribute_XML should look like or how to validate the xml.

We have SharePoint list which has, say, two columns. Column A and Column B.
Column A can have three values - red, blue & green.
Column B can have four values - pen, marker, pencil & highlighter.
A typical view of list can be:
Column A - Column B
red - pen
red - pencil
red - highlighter
blue - marker
blue - pencil
green - pen
green - highlighter
red - pen
blue - pencil
blue - highlighter
blue - pencil
We are looking to create a report from SharePoint List using SSRS which has following view:
red blue green
pen 2 0 1
marker 0 1 0
pencil 1 3 0
highlighter 1 1 1
We tried Sum but not able to display in single row.

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

Greetings,
I need to avg column data based on grid textboxes. I cannot use AVG because the column values come from a comma delimited string. I have tried using !Parameters to store a count and total for each column but they are always read only. What is the best approach.
The columns come from a field which is in the format of (99,75,60,100,-1,20,-1,80,75) for each record
-1 means the values are not counted in the average. I have a function for each textbox that parses the value from the list based on the column index. There can be 1 to many columns.
Everytime I to set the value of a field or parameter at runtime I get a read-only error.
Maybee the only way is to use calculated fields.
Any ideas.

I have a few tables that have an disabled attribute using a BIT datatype. A lot of my queries on the front end look like:
SELECT *
FROM TableA
WHERE disabled <> 1
There's usually some other constraints on the query (get TOP 10 and greater than a certain date for example). Right now my tables are very small (only a couple thousand rows). I don't anticipate these tables having more than 100,000 rows.
Right now let's say there's only a CLUSTERED INDEX on the date field, and regular INDEXES on the identity field and perhaps some other UNIQUE name in the table.
Unless I am doing ranged queries on the CLUSTERED INDEXED field, I'm going to be performing table scans almost every time, right?
This sort of goes along with another question:
Say you run the following (SQL Server):
CREATE TABLE TestA (
[id] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) PRIMARY KEY,
disabled BIT DEFAULT 0
)
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('1')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('1')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('1')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('1')
GO
INSERT INTO TestA (disabled) VALUES ('0')
Since [id] is a PK there will be a CLUSTERED INDEX placed on it. My question is; what does the optimizer do when you perform the following query?
SELECT TOP 3 *
FROM TestA
WHERE disabled <> '1'
My assumption is that since there's a CLUSTERED INDEX it will simply iterate through every tuple and check to see if disabled is not '1'. If my assumption is correct then these kind of boolean fields aren't a big deal if TOP queries are performed on a CLUSTERED INDEX.
So I guess what I am getting at is: Are bit attributes a sign of bad design? As tables get larger will performance degrade significantly? Would a better design be to have a seperate table of disabled items (which may result in large NOT IN subqueries)?
Any information on his would be greatly appreciated.

hi
i have a problem
i am writing a stored procedure which contains "EXECUTE" statment which excutes the query and retrieves the attributes what i want.
by using that procedure it is working fine and i am able to get the result
but i am not able to build the report why because this dataset not listing the attributes.
my procedure is like this :
--------------------------------------------
USE [HOST_BPM_COVLTCP]

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

Hello all. I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to construct a SQL statement that will be run on a Dataset that I have. The trick is that there are many conditions that can apply. I'll describe my situation:
I have about 1700 records in a datatable titled "AISC_Shapes_Table" with 49 columns. What I would like to do is allow the user of my VB application to 'create' a custom query (i.e. advanced search). For now, I'll just discuss two columns; The Section Label titled "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" and the Weight column "W". The data appears in the following manner:
(AISC_Shapes_Table)
AISC_MANUAL_LABEL W
W44x300 300
W42x200 200
(and so on)
WT22x150 150
WT21x100 100
(and so on)
MT12.5x12.4 12.4
MT12x10 10
(etc.)
I have a listbox which users can select MULTIPLE "Manual Labels" or shapes. They then select a property (W for weight, in this case) and a limitation (greater than a value, less than a value, or between two values). From all this, I create a custom Query string or filter to apply to my BindingSource.Filter method. However I have to use the % wildcard to deal with exceptions. If the user only wants W shapes, I use "...LIKE 'W%'" and "...NOT LIKE 'WT%" to be sure to select ONLY W shapes and no WT's. The problems arises, however, when the user wants multiple shapes in general. If I want to select all the "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" values with W <= 40, I can't do it. An example of a statement I tried to use to select WT% Labels and MT% labels with weight (W)<=100 is:
Code SnippetSELECT AISC_MANUAL_LABEL, W
FROM AISC_Shape_Table
WHERE (W <= 100) AND ((AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'MT%') AND (AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'WT%'))
It returns a NULL value to me, which i know is NOT because no such values exist. So, I further investigated and tried to use a subquery seeing if IN, ANY, or ALL would work, but to no avail. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? I know that if I can get an example of ONE of them to work, then I'll easily be able to apply it to all of my cases. Otherwise, am I just going about this the hard way or is it even possible? Please, ANY suggestions will help. Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Steve G.

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 .

As bcp does not allow for the column names to be included; I have developed a method for providing the columns. The end result is that two Tables are required for each output; a "ColumnNames" table and the Table that contains the actual data; however the bcp command is sorting the data; why this is happening?
According to Microsoft, by default bcp will not apply any sorting unless specified.
Here is the command I am using to perform the bcp output: -
SET
@bcpCommand =(select
'bcp "SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.MIS001_BCPColumnNames UNION SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.voltemp" queryout '
+ @FilePath+'
-c -t -T')
EXEC
master..xp_cmdshell
@bcpCommand
This is the bcp topic I referred to [URL] ....

Data Scenario – Sitemaster entity has two attributes (Region and Country).
Region and Country are both domain-based attributes on separate entities [Region and . The Country entity has a domain based attribute on REGION.
Data relationship looks like this… REGION > COUNTRY
Customer Requirement
Customer would like the MDS UI to filter the Country drop-down options based on the Region selection.
To my knowledge – the only filtering that can be done is based on user security using Hierarchy Membership Permissions.

I have a table #vert where I have value column. This data needs to be updated into two channel columns in #hori table based on channel number in #vert table.
CREATE TABLE #Vert (FILTER VARCHAR(3), CHANNEL TINYINT, VALUE TINYINT)
INSERT #Vert Values('ABC', 1, 22),('ABC', 2, 32),('BBC', 1, 12),('BBC', 2, 23),('CAB', 1, 33),('CAB', 2, 44) -- COMBINATION OF FILTER AND CHANNEL IS UNIQUE
CREATE TABLE #Hori (FILTER VARCHAR(3), CHANNEL1 TINYINT, CHANNEL2 TINYINT)
INSERT #Hori Values ('ABC', NULL, NULL),('BBC', NULL, NULL),('CAB', NULL, NULL) -- FILTER IS UNIQUE IN #HORI TABLE
One way to achieve this is to write two update statements. After update, the output you see is my desired output
UPDATE H
SET CHANNEL1= VALUE
FROM #Hori H JOIN #Vert V ON V.FILTER=H.FILTER
WHERE V.CHANNEL=1 -- updates only channel1
UPDATE H
SET CHANNEL2= VALUE
FROM #Hori H JOIN #Vert V ON V.FILTER=H.FILTER
WHERE V.CHANNEL=2 -- updates only channel2
SELECT * FROM #Hori -- this is desired output
my channels number grows in #vert table like 1,2,3,4...and so Channel3, Channel4....so on in #hori table. So I cannot keep writing too many update statements. One other way is to pivot #vert table and do single update into #hori table.

A common partitioning scenario is when the partition column has the same value for every record in the partition, as opposed to a range of values. Am I the only person who wonders why there isn't an option to automatically partition a table based on the unique values of the partition column? Instead of defining a partition function with constants, you ought to be able to just give it the column and be done. This would be particularly valuable for tables partitioned on a weekly or monthly date; when new data is added it could simply create a new partition if one doesn't already exist.

I am working in SQL Server Master Data Services Version 11.0.5058.0 (SP 2).
I have been asked to group all the financial attributes together. When I move one of the attributes up using the arrows, it works good jumping over one attribute at a time. Then I reach a section of attributes where it leap frogs over 24 attributes.
It appears these 24 attributes are in a subgroup but there are no attribute groups and I removed the subscription view from the entity. If I move one of the 24 attributes in the group, it moves it outside of the 24 attributes.
This is under leaf member attributes. There are no collection or consolidated groups.

I'm using a DW from Northwind database to build a cube to do some analitical taks. I already create the cube and now I am "cleaning" the dimensions. I'm having some difficults to understand the logical off this part. The reason is that When I create the Data Source View, I only import the Foreign Keys that connect the Dimensions to Fact_Table. I have to drag the attributes of Dimension from Data Source View to the tab attributes?
Imagine this:
I have the following dimension:
Dim_Customer:
Customer_ID
Name_Customer
Job_Function
Date_of_Birth
Contact
Address
City
Country
When I create the cube only Customer_ID appears in attributes tab, it's normal?
One more question:
I don't want to create a hierarchy like:
Customer ID -> Name_Customer
Customer ID -> Date_of_Birth
Customer ID -> Address
Customer ID -> City
Customer ID -> Country
My idea is to create the following hierarchy:
Name_Customer -> Date_of_Birth -> Address -> City -> Country
But the first hierarchy that I show is always appears to me. Do you know what is happens?

I'm building a custom transform component. I want to mark some input columns as keys for deduplicating. In a similar way to the provided Sort component, I want to check those columns and allow pass-throughs (or not) for the others - so next to each input column name I need two checkboxes (1:use for dedupe; 2:include in output if 1 not checked). If a column is checked for use in the dedupe, I want some other attributes to be shown indicating how it will be used. How do I display the checkboxes to let users select which columns to include for deduplication, and then how do I add further attributes underneath (copying the Sort component's look) for selection?
Thanks in advance for guidance and pointers on this.

I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.
What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column.
I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.

Hello all-
I have a specification table that has some attributes defined.
SpecId - Id of the specification
Attribute - Attribute of the spec. (Like Color, HP etc)
Value - Is the value of the attribute
Then I have a car table that actually has information about the cars. Intention is to take each specification and match the cars that match the specification. If the car has more attributes than the spec, we ignore the extra attributes for the match. But if the car has less attributes, we don't even consider the car as a match (even if the attributes present, match). To summarize, the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes.
The code I have below is bad because I am joining the same tables twice. In addition, it fails in the condition "the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes"
Any help is greatly appreciated.
DECLARE @Specification TABLE

Excuse me for not using the easiest way to convey my question below. I guess in short I have 10 numbers and like to find how many of those numbers exist in each row. short example:
Table Name: test1
Columns: m1 (int), m2 (int), m3 (int) >>> etc
Array/Row1: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
------
Table Name: test2
Columns: n1 (int), n2 (int), n3 (int), n4 (int), n5 (int)
Row 1: 3, 8, 18, 77, 12

I am working with a data set containing several years' of monetary values. I have entries for past dates and the associated values, and I also have entries for future dates. I need to populate the values of the future date records with the values from the same date the previous year. Is there any way this can be done in Power Pivot?

I have a script that I use after some amount of data massaging (not shown). I would like to be able to change the
1) denominator value (the value 8 in line 32 of my code) based on how many columns are selected by the where clause:
where left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = 1where capNumber is a value like [1_1], [1_4], [1_6]...[1_9] capNumber can be any values from [1_1]...[14_10] depending upon the specialty value (example: Allergy) and the final number after the equal sign is a number from 1 to 14)
2) I'd like to dynamically determine the series depending upon which values correspond to the specialty and run for each where: left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = n. n is a number between 1 and 14.
3) finally I'd like to dynamically determine the columns in line 31 (4th line from the bottom)
If I do it by hand it's 23 * 14 separate runs to get separate results for each CapNumber series within specialty. The capNumber series is like [1_1], [1_2], [1_3],[1_4], [1_5], [1_6], [1_7], [1_8],[1_9]
...
[8_4],[8_7]
...
[14_1], [14_2],...[14_10]
etc.
Again, the series are usually discontinuous and specific to each specialty.
Here's the portion of the script (it's at the end) that I'm talking about:
--change values in square brackets below for each specialty as needed and change the denom number in the very last query.
if object_id('tempdb..#tempAllergy') is not null
drop table #tempAllergy
select *
into #tempAllergy
from
dbo.#temp2 T
[Code] ....
If I were to do it manually I'd uncomment each series line in turn and comment the one I just ran.

Hi!
I am designing a dimension table which will include a short name column based on the (full) name column. For example say Product dimension where I will have ProductName and ProductShortName. ProductShortName will be the first 6 characters of ProductName. I could populate ProductShortName using:
Substring in the select when I select from the original system, e.g. SUBSTR(PRODUCT_NAME, 1, 6) AS ProductShortName
Create a derived column in the SSIS flow which does the same thing
Create the ProductShortName column as a computed column which uses substring on ProductName
Create a trigger that populates ProductShortName based on ProductName when a row is inserted or updated
Create a named calculation in the table in the Analysis Services project's data source view
Create a named query in the Analysis Services project's data source view
I usually use 1, and 5 or 6 would only be used if I only will create reports against the cubes. 3 seems easiest to maintain, so I am thinking about using that one, but maybe it is slow for the data flow as I imagine it must be something like using 4, or when is the column "created" at runtime, i.e. when the table is queried?
Which approach(es) do or would you use? Pros and cons?
Thanks!

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.

I have a excel file which has a column called "Code" and their values are A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H. I want to create a new column called "status" based on the values of "Code".
Code:
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
If A,C,E,G then "status" = "Active" else if B,D,F,H then "Status" = "Inactive". I like to do it using "Derived Column".

Let's say I have a table with 3 fields: an ID field (primary key, set as an id field, etc.), a Name field (nvarchar50), and an Age field (int). I have a form that has three elements:
DropDownList1: This drop down list contains 3 choices- "=", ">", and "<".
Age: This text box is where someone would enter a number.
Button1: This is the form's submit button.
I want someone to be able to search the database for entries where the Age is either equal to ("="), greater than (">"), or less than ("<") whatever number they enter into TextBox1.
The code-behind is shown below. The part I'm confused about is that if I load this page, the query works the -first- time. Then, if I try to change the parameters in the form and submit it, I get the following error:
"The variable name '@Age' has already been declared. Variable names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure."
Any help would be appreciated.
Here is what I'm using in my code behind:
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder(); sb.Append("SELECT * FROM People WHERE Age "); switch (DropDownList1.SelectedValue) { case "=": sb.Append("= "); break; case ">": sb.Append("> "); break; case "<": sb.Append("< "); break; } sb.Append("@Age"); SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = sb.ToString(); SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add("Age", TypeCode.Int32, Age.Text); }
