Ranged Datetime Predicates && Cardinality Estimates

Mar 27, 2006

Hello all. I'm running SQL Server 2000 and I'm trying to get a veryfew, recent rows of data from a table based on an indexed datetimecolumn. Here's my predicate:where order_date > dateadd(hour, -1, getdate())i.e. everything more recent than one hour ago. This corresponds to the3 or 4 rows in which I'm interested. I have order_date indexed and Ihave current statistics. When I check the explain plan for this queryI see expected rows returned: 114,000. When I go on to join to severalother tables I end up with unnecessary hash joins -- due to theinaccurate cardinality estimates on this table.However, if I use the following predicate (which corresponds to datawithin the last 3 days):where order_date > '2006-03-24'then I see an estimated rows returned: 6 -- which is pretty accurate.[color=blue]>From there the rest of the query's explain plan falls together nicely.[/color]So my question is: how do I get the optimizer to realize that one hourago is pretty recent?Many thanks,Scott

Selecting The Most Recently Edited Item AND Selecting A Certain Type If Another Doesn't Exist

Sep 20, 2007

I've got a big problem that I'm trying to figure out:
I have an address table out-of-which I am trying to select mailing addresses for companies UNLESS a mailing address doesn't exist; then I want to select the physical addresses for that company. If I get multiple mailing or physical addresses returned I only want the most recently edited out of those.

I don't need this for an individual ID select, I need it applied to every record from the table.

My address table has some columns that look like:
[AddressID] [int]
[LocationID] [int]

[Type] [nvarchar](10)
[Address] [varchar](50)
[City] [varchar](50)
[State] [char](2)
[Zip] [varchar](5)
[AddDate] [datetime]
[EditDate] [datetime]

AddressID is a primary-key non-null column to the address table and the LocationID is a foreign key value from a seperate Companies table.
So there will be multiple addresses to one LocationID, but each address will have it's own AddressID.

How can I do this efficiently with perfomance in mind???

Thank you in advance for any and all replies...

Selecting A View And Selecting FROM A View Is Wildly Different

Feb 21, 2006

A colleague of mine has a view that returns approx 100000 rows in about 60 seconds.

He wants to use the data returned from that view in an OLE DB Source component.

When he selects the view from the drop-down list of available tables then SSIS seems to hang without any data being returned (he waited for about 15 mins).



He then changed the OLE DB Source component to use a SQL statement and the SQL statement was: SELECT * FROM <viewname>

In this instance all the data was returned in approx 60 seconds (as expected).





This makes no sense. One would think that selecting a view from the drop-down and doing a SELECT *... from that view would be exactly the same. Evidently that isn't the case.

Can anyone explain why?

Thanks

Selecting Distinct

Jul 18, 2007

 Hi, This is quite an obvious problem, but for some reason I can't think through the solution. I have two columns, a datetime (datecreated) and an id (FK)  othertableid (id)what I would like to be able to do is select a list of id and datecreated, but only chose the latest row for each id.So I guess it's a bit like a distinct on the id column, but ensuring the date returned is the top date. Please help

Do While Skip In Selecting...

Oct 21, 2004

Hello:

I have one table and it contains a column named ID Number, and a column named Date. I have a Do While statement that runs a SQL select statement a few times based on the number of records with the same ID Number. During the Do While statement the information is copied into another table and deleted from the old table. After I look at the results, I see that at the second Do While loop, the data was not selected and the Select statement did not run... so the old variable value from varValue is used again... Any reasons on why?

Here is a code snippet of what is going on:
Do While varCount < varRecordCount
conSqlConnect.Open()
cmdSelect = New SqlCommand ("Select * From temp_records_1 where [id number]=@idnumber and date<@date", conSqlConnect)
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@accountnumber", "10000" )
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@date", dtnow )
dtrdatareader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader()
While dtrdatareader.Read()
If IsDbNull(dtrdatareader("value")) = false Then
varValue = dtrdatareader("value")
End If
End While
dtrdatareader.Close()
conSqlConnect.Close()

'#####The information above is copied to another table here
'#####The record where the information was received is deleted.

varCount = varCount + 1
LoopAny ideas?

Selecting * WHILE Converting

Jun 2, 2005

I have a tbale with maybe 30 columns and I'm selecting all where a
record number matches a parameter I've passed.  That works fine,
however is there any way to do some conversions to fields when
selecting without having to list out each column?  For instance
this is what it looks like now:

SELECT *
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

But I want to convert say one column, is there a way to keep similar syntax instead of listing out each column?

SELECT *, CONVERT(varchar(15), [Losses]) as [Losses]
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

And the column I'm converting is of type 'money'.  I'm converting
it to get rid of the extra zeroes at the end.  If you know a
better way to do it I'd be interested in knowing.

Selecting Fields On The Fly

Sep 20, 2005

Hi

I have a content management system that I am building. My CMS has a
pages table which contains 60 fields, some are varchars, some are ntext
some are dates etc. They have field names which match their purpose
like varchar1, ntext3 etc. These fields are used up depending on which
template is applied to the page.

The templatefields table holds holds the information about each field
in a template. It's control type (rich text control, date control etc)
and the field in the pages table that the data will be stored in
(varchar1,ntext3 etc)

What I want to be able to do is loop through the templatefeilds table
for a particular template and then using the field name for the pages
table, go to the pages table and get the value to populate the control.

So to clarify, I would like to produce a stored procedure which outputs
the page field name (varchar1) from the templatefields table and
varchar1's value in the pages table. Maybe in a temporary table.

Is this possible?

Any guidance would be appreciated..

Thanks in advance

Selecting Indexes

May 8, 2001

We are developing an Access application that will be used to run adhoc reports against a SQL Server table. Selection criteria is entered on a form, a passthru query is built on the fly, and the results are formatted for output via an Access report.

There are 16 different fields on the query form. Two are date fields (from / to), the rest are text. The user is required to supply a date range for the report. They may specify any combination of the remaining query fields.

Examples:
From/To dates, part number, work order number
From/To dates, location, operation, sales order number, operator

What is the best scheme to use for the indexes? One index for each potential query field? Or, a single index that includes ALL query fields? Or, some other combination?

I should also mention that there will be no realtime updates to the table. On a weekly basis, we will import updates from a mainframe extract (dropping the indexes prior to the import, rebuilding them afterwards).

Selecting 2 F/k's From Same Table?

Sep 13, 2005

This is, I'm hoping, a simple thing that I just don't know how to do. But I've searched my books and read a lot of threads but so far, no luck in what I'm trying to do. Here's the basic layout of 2 tables from my d/b (MSDE):

tblCity
cityID (p/k)
stateID (f/k to tblState.stateID)
cityName (varchar 35)

tblStudent
studID (p/k)
cityID (f/k to tblCity.cityID)
hometownID (f/k to tblCity.cityID)
studFName (varchar 25)
studLName (varchar 35)
...

I *hope* that what I tried to do there is allowed. Basically what I'm trying to do is to tie the student to both his current City (by foreign key cityID) and his hometown city (also by foreign key cityID).

So, if New York is (127, 33, 'New York') and Birmingham is (1050, 1, 'Birmingham') (in tblCity), then in the student table (tblStudent), John Smith would be
Quote: 12150, 127, 1050, 'John', 'Smith', ...
How would I format my SQL statement to get both cityNames? I thought this would work


Code:

SELECT s.studID, c.cityID, c.hometownID,
s.studLName + ', ' + s.studFName AS studNameName,
c.cityName, c.cityName AS swapconNum
FROM tblStudent AS s INNER JOIN tblCity AS c
ON (s.cityID = c.cityID)
WHERE s.studID = 12150


Can I do this? If so, what am I doing wrong? Sorry, I'm kinda sorta new to SQL.

Selecting From A List

Aug 19, 2005

Hello,
I think I have a pretty simple question,
I have a list of record IDs that I need to search on. I'm trying to create a query like this:

Select record_ID
FROM table
WHERE record_id <> (1,3,4,6,8,9,11)

In a table with 12 records, I'd like it to return 2,5,6,10,12

Background:
I have a list of .jpgs that correspond to record_ids. I want to take the list of .jpg names and compare that to the record_ids so I may delete any .jpgs that do to not have a corresponding record.

Any help would be appreicated.

Selecting One Of 3 Columns...

Dec 29, 2004

Hi,

I have a table that has 3 different types of dates (date1, date2, date3), and they represent the edit times of the 3 different sections on the website.
How do I select only one of those three that's the most recent? (It would represent the most recent edit on the website overall).
It would be an easy task if it was only one column - I would simply select the MAX, but I have to be selective between 3 different columns and pick the one I "like".

Thanks,

Selecting Nth Row Only (offset)

Jul 29, 2014

I have a query which can return multiple rows. I want to select only the nth row. In other db languages, this is achieved using the OFFSET command, but in SQL Server this command does not exist. I saw that you can hack it using ROWCOUNT and an ORDER BY clause, but I don't have anything to order by. Is there some other way to do this? My query is

Code:
SELECT S.SystemName FROM Projects AS P INNER JOIN ProjectSystems AS PS ON PS.ProjectId = P.ProjectId LEFT JOIN Systems AS S ON S.SystemId = PS.SystemID WHERE P.ProjectId = @ProjectID

This will select an example result of:

Code:
System Name
System 1

Selecting Based On The Value Of A SUM

Apr 21, 2008

Okay, let's see if I can explain this one. I am summing multiple lines of data from a labor detail table, by status. Using this query

SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor, SUM(LD.WrittenOff) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname
ORDER BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1

I get these results...

Okay, so now, of coarse, I want to change everything. I only want to return rows if there is a value > 0 in either Held Labor or TBWrittenOffLabor. Otherwise, no row return.

Here's what I tried, but it didn't work out because it still returns rows, it just zero's out the values for written off labor.

SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor,
SUM(CASE WHEN LD.HELD > '0' THEN LD.WrittenOff ELSE '0' END) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname

from systatchange where EffectiveDate < '8/1/2013' and adenrollID=47964
Group by grouping sets ((SyStatChangeID, systatchange.AdEnrollID))
