it doesn't appear possible to merge cells by col in RS 2005 ? am i missing some more advanced feature or is it a great big over sight on MS's part?
i basicly want a 3 column table, with the rows in the first column merged and the text turned on it's side showing bottom to top.
pretty ordinary kind of thing to do i would have thought
Say I have a table with the columns (and example data):
CustomerNo, ContactNo, ActivityNo
null, null, 1
100, null, 1
null, 666, 1
null, null, 2
200, null, 2
null, 777, 2
From this I would like to get the result:
CustomerNo, ContactNo, ActivityNo
100, 666, 1
200, 777, 2
How do I solve this. Im getting grey hair here...
Hi All,
I have a query that I'm working on, but instead of giving the query, I wanted to ask a basic syntax question. If more info is needed, let me know. If you have 2 rows that have a common relationship, but differing information in some fields, can you merge them all onto one row? I've done this with Sum(case) expressions, but I don't want to 'add' anything. In the following example, the ActivityID refers to a break. ActivityID can be:
0=Pick up
1=Drop Off
2=Lunch
3=Break
So if I wanted to see 2 breaks on 1 row in the following example, would this be possible:
Veh ActID ArrTime DepTime
1 3 7:00 8:00
1 3 10:00 11:00
Veh ActID ArrTime DepTime ArrTime DepTime
1 3 7:00 8:00 10:00 11:00
Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm using a shipping program called endicia professional that allows for database manipulation to make my processing easier. I've managed to fix the database here and there but have had an issue combining orders from a single customer when theybuy more than one item. Ideally I would like to have it combine rows when a customer purchases items going to the same address. To avoid having an issue where the address line is the same ie two people live in the same appt complex and it combines these I thought we could use qualifiers as the purchase will have name, order Id that should be unique enough
Order-id name address sku
1234 John 46 easy ln. A27
1234 John 46 easy ln. B32
Results:
Order-id name address sku
1234 John 46 easy ln. A27,b32
Hi Im having trouble with this it seems simple enough but its not!
I have a source Table called Access_table example
Name Role1 Role2 Role3 Role4 Role5
a 1 0 0 0 0
a 0 0 1 0 0
b 1 0 0 0 0
c 0 1 0 0 0
d 0 0 0 0 1
e 0 0 1 0 0
e 0 1 0 0 0
f 1 0 0 0 0
g 0 0 1 0 0
I need to create a view that basically finds all the names with double Roles and merge the results into 1 row example.
Name Role1 Role2 Role3 Role4 Role5
a 1 0 1 0 0
e 0 1 1 0 0
I cannot change the information in the source table and the results need to be in a view as the roles will change. Every time I try and do this I duplicate the row again. Can anybody suggest a solution.
Thanks in advance.

I want the two duplicate rows to be merged into one. How to achieve it.
SQL 2012
I have a source table in the staging database stg.fact and it needs to be merged into the warehouse table whs.Fact.
stg.fact is not a delta feed it is basically an intra-day refresh.
Both tables have a last updated date so its easy to see which have changed.
It will be new (insert) or changed (update) data that I am interested in, there are no deletions.
As this could be in the millions of rows that are inserts or updates then this needs to be efficient.
I expect whs.Fact to go to >150 million rows.
When I have done this before I started with T-SQL Merge statement and that was not performant once I got to this size.
My original option was to do this is SSIS with a lookup task that marks the inserts and updates and deal with them seperately. However I set up the lookup tranformation the reference data set will have a package variable in the SQL commnd. This does not seem possible with the lookup in 2012! Currently looking at Merge Join transformation and any clever basic T-SQL that could work as this will need to be fast, and thats where I think that T-SQL may be the better route.
Both tables will have >100,000,000 rows
Both tables have the last updated date
The Tables are in different databases but on the same SQL Instance
Each table holds 5 integer columns, one Varchar, one datatime
Last time I used Merge it was a wider table with lots of columns so don't know if this would be an option.

I have two sql server databases...one holds nothing but personalisation information. The other holds various other types of data. I would like to merge these two DBs into one (including all stored procedures,etc.), but being a relative noob to SQL Server, I can't seem to figure out exactly how to accomplish this. Neither database holds anything that the other holds; data-wise, stored procedure-wise or any other wise. ;-)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Hi, I want to make fusion replication.
We've got an incident database on our server and we want our
consultants could add, modify, delete incidents on our customers sites
with their laptop.
When they come back we can also synchronise our incidents database
with their modifications.
I defined the database on our server ( sql7 sp3) as distibutor and
publisher, the other computers coulb be only suscribers.
It would be very easy except for a case :
when a line is modified on our server database and the same line in
the same table is modified on the suscriber computer, the changes on
publisher (distiributor) seems to have priority on the suscribers.
But we would like to control this : we want the suscribers, when they
come back, if this case appears, could choose good merging or not if
it's possible, and if it is not, we would like at less they could have
a message saying they will lost that they change (incident by incident
if it's possible)
So what is possible to resolve it by the best way ?
Thanks to your answers
Best regards
Axel
Help!!, Does anyone know of a way that I can merge three seperate fields into one field in my sql statement.
EG.
SELECT catnumber, catnumber2,catnumber3
FROM Categories
WHERE Customer = 'xxxx' and itemnumber = 1 or 2 or 4
I want the catnumber, catnumber2, catnumber3 all in one field so I can sort by it.
If anybody could help me it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I need to figure out what is the easiest way to do this is. I have two tables that have the following columns:
Code:
TABLE 1
AcctNbr, GiftRef, Gdate, PayCode, Amt
Table 2
GiftRef, Amt, MotvCode, FundId
I need to merge the two tables with GiftRef being the common table between them. I have exported the tables from MSSQL to Access and am wondering what the easiest way to do this is. Is there an SQL Query that can merge the two tables on export by GiftRef? Is it easier to do this in Access now that I've exported the two Tables? Any help on this would be awesome. Thanks.
Hi Gurus.
My client drops for me many files like this on a shared drive M: daily
1_Test.csv
2_Test.csv
3_Test.csv
I would like you to advice on how to write a SQL code (that can include DTS if possible) that will take this files, merge them into one (since they have same columns) and send them to another client as one file. But it must only take the files of the same date and must not resend files i have send already. I need this to be an automated process since the files are dumped into M:drive midnite and I need this code so that I can schedule it as a job and run around 4h00am.
I'm pretty new to SQL altogether. I kinda gave myself a crash-course when the software I was using, Papertrack, was having problems. It all started when I tried to move the database. Now there are two separate databases that I can see on SQL Enterprise manager. I picked up the book and figured some things out, but still don't know how to merge the databases. I called the support for the software and got to know them on a middle-name basis. Is there a way I can merge the two databases so that the software can pull queries from both and access the files?
To anyone that likes a challenge,
Thanks

Hello there. I am Completely new to SQL and this forum, and this problem that I have may appear to be very basic to you guys but still... I was wondering if I could get some help with a database I am trying to make in MS Access.
I have used the Access TransferText function to import data from a text file into a table with an ID attached to each line, eg.
ID Text
1 Hello world
2 This is an example
3 Of my database
I want to merge the data, or copy it into a field in a new table to get:
ID Text
1 Hello World
This is an example
Of my database
2 [more imported text from a different table]
and i have been advised that SQL is the best way to do this. Is it possible to have line breaks in a field within microsoft access, or would it have to be structured as
ID Text
1 Hello World This is an Example Of My Database
2 ...
And how would i make the SQL to do this?
Thanks,
Thom

Hello,
I have a question. I want to perform the following task:
1) UPDATE wdoctyp SET ldoclock=0 WHERE docType='LEAVE'
2) SELECT idoclastsn FROM wdoctyp WHERE docType='LEAVE'
3) UPDATE wdoctyp SET ldoclock=1, idoclastsn=idoclastsn+1 WHERE
docType='LEAVE'
can I perform it in one SQL statement? Actually the reason I want to do this is because I want to prevent ldoclock from locking forever due to computer failure.
Can somebody give me a hand?
