Hi,
How do I ensure that DISTINCT values of r.GPositionID are returned from the below??
Code Snippet
SELECT CommentImage AS ViewComment,r.GPositionID,GCustodian,GCustodianAccount,GAssetType
FROM @GResults r
LEFT OUTER JOIN
ReconComments cm
ON cm.GPositionID = r.GPositionID
WHERE r.GPositionID NOT IN (SELECT g.GPositionID FROM ReconGCrossReference g)
ORDER BY GCustodian, GCustodianAccount, GAssetType;
Thanks.
Hello all,
I am using INNER JOIN to connect 2 tables together but I wish it to return distinct columns instead of repeating itself !
eg.
Current output would be:
UserID Name UserID OrderID
1 John 1 5
2 Bob 2 6
I want it to be:
UserID Name OrderID
1 John 5
2 Bob 6
I need to use SELECT * as there are many many columns and wish to save time :)
Cheers,
James
I am trying to create a query that will find all the records that have the same value multiple times in the a column called phonenumber.
How do i return disticnt records having count greater than 1
Hi
I am trying to write a query that will return a full record with a particular distinct field (the rest of the record being the first such record that includes the distinct field).
For example, for the following:
Fruit Like? Colour
Apple Y Green
Orange N Orange
Banana Y Yellow
Grape Y Green
Grapefruit N Yellow
I would want to return (assuming Colour was the distinct field):
Fruit Like? Colour
Apple Y Green
Orange N Orange
Banana Y Yellow
How do I do this? I've tried using a join (of all different kinds) with a subquery that uses SELECT DISTINCT but this doesn't seem to work. I've tried GROUP BY but none of the aggregate functions seem to just take the first found field.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
I need to somehow filter the results of my stored procedure to return the distinct "OrderNum" values. I'm using SQL database and I'm look for a way to alter the results from the stored procedure. My stored procedure rptOpenOrderLines currently returns all invoices (items under a OrderNum). I want to somehow filter those results to return one and only one of those "OrderNum" variables from the invoices. The tricky part is that I need to somehow find a way to do this without going into my database and directly altering the SQL stored procedure. I would be happy for any recommendations/ideas. Thanks!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was curious...Is there a way to select distinct on a combination of some fields andthe for each record returned also get the other fields of anarbitrarily chosen record matching the fields in the distinct record.For example, if I have a select distinct on say three fields:SELECT DISTINCT Code1, Code2, Code3but the table also has other fields, maybe Foo1 and Foo2, and I wantFoo1 and Foo2 to also be displayed. Since there may be multiplerecords that match a particular Code1, Code2, Code3, then I just wantone of those to be arbitrarily chosen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table in my MS SQL 2000 database called News which has a field caled NewsDate. This is a standard Date field which stores the info in this format: 3/1/2001.
I want to create a query that returns one row for each year that there is a story.
For example, if I had this data...
3/1/2001, 6/27/2003. 9/17/2003, 1/1/2006, 4/5/2006
the query would return this result:
2001
2003
2006
This is the query I've started with:
SELECT DISTINCT NewsDate FROM News ORDER BY NewsDate DESC
What modifier can I apply to the NewsDate field to extract JUST the year from the table? If this were ASP I would try something like Year(Date), but, of course, I can't do that here.
Is this even possible? I've been looking up date functions, but haven't found anything that will work in a select statement. ANY and ALL advice will be greatly appreciated.
Here's an example of what I am trying to do...
Table1: id, name, title,...
Table2: id, regionID, region,...
t1 has a 1 to many relationship to t2
(no keys on t2)
SELECT DISTINCT t1.name, t1.title
FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN
table2 t2 ON t1.id = t2.id
That works fine... Now, I want to include a third table...
Table3: regionID , RegionName, location,...
SELECT DISTINCT t1.name, t1.title, t3.RegionName
FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN
table2 t2 ON t1.id = t2.id INNER JOIN
table3 t3 ON t2.regionID = t3.regionID
A sample result would be....
Bill, Owner, England
Jim, Owner, France
Jim, Owner, Spain
However, I would like to only list the individuals (ie. Jim, Owner) one time! Only the first 2 fields (name, title) need to be distinct. How do I reference the third table without including it in the DISTINCT keyword?
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew
hello I am trying to get a distinct on one column and 2 tables but it doesnt work
Table1
ID_Table1
Name1
Number1
Table2
ID_Table2
ID_Table1

I want to get : ID_Table1, DISTINCT(Name1), Name2
WHERE Name1 LIKE 'A%'
how can I do it ?
thank you
// C - Categories, P - Parameters, CP_Link - linkage table between C and P
// Basically, it is a list of features belonging to a particular category.
DROP TABLE [C];
CREATE TABLE [C] (
ID_CAutoinc,
Name varchar(32),
PRIMARY KEY( ID_C )
[code]....
OK, this works fine, but I want to get a list of parameters (from P table) which holds only those items that linked to all categories requested. In other words, I want only 'leg' and 'hand', but not the 'beard', because 'girls' not linked to 'beard'.Only common features for all of categories listed "IN (,,,)" wanted.

Attached is my select query, but it is returning the database values twice.
Can anyone tell me how I tell it to stop! A sub query I guess....
SELECT DISTINCT
dbo.Lead_Entry.Lead_ID, dbo.Lead_Entry.Lead_Source, dbo.Lead_Entry.Lead_Approved, dbo.Lead_Entry.Solution, dbo.Lead_Entry.Lead_Date,
dbo.Customer_Company.Company_Name, dbo.Customer_Contacts.Contact_Name
FROM dbo.Customer_Contacts INNER JOIN
dbo.Customer_Company ON dbo.Customer_Contacts.Company_ID = dbo.Customer_Company.Company_ID CROSS JOIN
dbo.Lead_Entry
I have 3 tables:
News:
bigint NewId
nvarchar NewTitle
datetime NewDate
nvarchar NewBrief

Category:
int CatId
nvarchar CatName
--------------------------
NewsRelCategory:
bigint Id
int CategoryIdFk
bigint NewsIdFk
--------------------------
I want to select NewId, NewDate and Distinct NewTitle
I tried this but NewTitle doesn't distinct:
SELECT
FROM dbo.Category INNER JOIN
NewsRelCategory ON dbo.Category.CatId = NewsRelCategory.NrcCategoryIdFk INNER JOIN
dbo.News ON NewsRelCategory.NrcNewsIdFk = dbo.News.NewId
I am attempting to run the following select statement joining multiple tables but in the end result I would like only Distinct/Unique values to be returned in the invlod.lodnum column.

and (aremst.wh_id = locmst.wh_id)

best way to go about this. My query works great and displays the information I require.
EG all demographic for ED, IP & OP. However if a patient has a record in each of the tables then I get the same info multiple times.
What I'm trying to do is a Select Distint against the entire query (below).
eg Select Distinct * from all below.
DECLARE @StartDate datetime = '01 oct 2015';
DECLARE @EndDate datetime = '30 OCT 2015';

Hello everybody,
have following problem:
I need info from 2 Tables. from the Table 2 I just need 1 column. When i ask for this column the output I get is data repeating themselve many times.
Distinct, should give me unique data, but is doesnt....
the code:
SELECT DISTINCT FSenddate, FSupplyIDName, FSupplyerNumber,FBillNo,FSourceBillNo,FItemName,FItemModel,
FAuxQty,FAuxTaxPrice,FHeadSelfP0237
FROM vwICBill_26
WHERE FSenddate BETWEEN DATEADD(dd,-14,GETDATE()) AND GETDATE()
This code just works in Table1 (vwICBill_26)
but with table 2 (vwICBill_1)
SELECT DISTINCT vwICBill_26.FSenddate,vwICBill_26.FSupplyIDName,
vwICBill_26.FSupplyerNumber,vwICBill_26.FBillNo,
vwICBill_26.FSourceBillNo,vwICBill_26.FItemName,
vwICBill_26.FItemModel,vwICBill_26.FAuxQty,
vwICBill_26.FAuxTaxPrice,vwICBill_26.FHeadSelfP0237,
vwICBill_1.FDate,vwICBill_1.FContractBillNo
FROM vwICBill_26,vwICBill_1
WHERE vwICBill_26.FSenddate BETWEEN DATEADD(dd,-14,GETDATE()) AND GETDATE()
AND vwICBill_1.FContractBillNo=vwICBill_26.FSourceBillNo
The last sentence is the problem
I want that it shows me the data that is not equal.
As soon as I implement the not equal it shows me the massive repeating data.
I mean even without the last sentence I get this data output.
All together, I want a clear database output without data repeating.
Any ideas how it may work without DISTINCT?
I think this problem is a typical amateure problem, but I would apreciate help!
I need to get all distinct values from 10 different tables that exist in the field [favoritesport] And each table holds close to 50K records so I am looking at 500,000 records to get distinct values for. Would the fastest, less intrusive way of achieving this be to just create a UNION ALL so run
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table1
Union
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table2
Union
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table3
etc etc etc
12.) Now you have two different tables - each with two columns.Table #1Single Column2 rows with a value equal to 1 and 2Table #2Single column2 rows with a value equal to 2 and 4Construct a statement returning in a single column all the valuescontained, but not the common values.This is another question that I got in an interview, I missedit.......Thanks,Tim

I am pulling three columns with the same names from 8 different tables. What I need to display the date, machine & test name and count how many times a test was run on a machine for that date. I have a feeling this can be handled by SSAS but haven't built an analysis cube yet because I am unfamiliar with how they work. I was wondering if this is possible in a simple query. I tried to set something up in a #Temp table. Problem is the query takes forever to run because I am dealing with 1.7 Million rows. Doing an insert into #temp select columnA, columnB, columnC from 8 different tables takes a bit.
Dear experts,
I've just got the assignment to write a stored procedure or function. It was requested to return 3 tables from that sp or function.
eg.
table1
fd1
fd2
table2
fd2_1
fd2_1
table3
fd3_1
fd3_2
It is posible for sp or function to return many tables at once? if so, which of them is better (sp and function).
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello All
Please can anyone advice me how I can fetch list of all tables which have no records in it in sql server
Thanks
I want to return a list of user tables from a database where the rowcount is 0. This will be a 3 step process: (1) truncate all 'New%' tables, (2) load data via ODBC/DTS into 'New%' tables, (3) list all 'New%' tables with zero rows (i.e. those that didn't get loaded, as all tables in the ODBC data source contain data).
I've tried:
select left(s2.name,32) as TableName, max(s1.rows) as Records
from sysindexes s1
inner join sysobjects s2 on s1.id=s2.id
where type = 'U' and s2.name like 'New%'
group by s2.name
HAVING max(rows) = 0
ORDER BY TableName
but of course there are multiple rows in sysindexes and the routine does not reliably return the correct list; for example the data in sysobjects & sysindexes, without the max and group by, might look like:
TableNameRows
NewARTxn0
NewARTxn1214800
NewARTxn1214800
NewARTxn1214800
NewARTxn1214800

Hi all,
From the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES view I want to return the TABLE_NAME of tables that have columns say, named Email and EmailStatusId. Is it possible to do this with a single select statement or would I have to use two selects for this?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have the following script segment which is failing:
CREATE TABLE #LatLong (Latitude DECIMAL, Longitude DECIMAL, PRIMARY KEY (Latitude, Longitude))
INSERT INTO #LatLong SELECT DISTINCT Latitude, Longitude FROM RGCcache
When I run it I get the following error: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#LatLong__________7CE3D9D4'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#LatLong'."
Im not sure how this is failing as when I try creating another table with 2 decimal columns and repeated values, select distinct only returns distinct pairs of values.
The failure may be related to the fact that RGCcache has about 10 million rows, but I can't see why.
Any ideas?

[MostPopularName] is [PersonNames.PopularVotes DESC].[NameSearch] combines all records from [PersonNames.PersonName] and [AltNames.AltNames].

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
