I have a query where the report name and report id are both displayed This only applies when the reports are pre-checked. The values are populated in a datagrid. If the report is unchecked, only the name is displayed. I tried using the UPDATE keyword but I kept running into syntax error. I know that the small change to the query is simple, but I am having a tricky time attempting to display the reportid when the report is unchecked or basically reportvisible being 0. How do I work around this to show the reportid regardless of if it is checked or not?
valsql1 = "SELECT c.ReportID, c.COMPANYID, rl.REPORTNAME
FROM CompanyReportListTable c
right join ReportList rl on c.reportid = rl.ReportID
and reportvisible = 1
and CompanyID =" & DropDownList1.SelectedValue & "
where rl.ReportID in (
Select ReportID
from ReportList
where ReportVisible = 1
)
order by ReportName"
You're right joining exclusively on reportvisible = 1, and then you're specifically selecting only reportIDs with reportvisible = 1. You are twice-over filtering out rows with reportvisible = 0, so of course you aren't going to get reportids for those rows. You should add rl.reportvisible to the SELECT clause and remove reportvisible = 1 from the join and where clauses.
It is only a one word/two letter change. At the first SELECT statement, instead of c.ReportID, it should be rl.REPORTID. Refer back to the right join; y using a right join, it returns the selected rows from reportlist, matches it with crl table. Now we made it so reportID appears regardless if it matches or not. Kind of like report name/title

I am working on a query for a datatable and I can't seem to get it to display how I want, I don't know if this is even possible in SQL What I am looking to do is get a query to respond with ideally an extra column of Boolean type.
Currently I can run two queries and they both work perfectly but I can't work out how to join them together bellow is the code from my first query what this does is return beers a user has tried this works fine and as expected and returns as expected.
SELECT *
FROM keg.beer
JOIN keg.userbeer
ON beer.id = userbeer.beer_id
WHERE userbeer.username_id = 1;
The second query is even simpler and is just a select getting the list of beers.
SELECT * FROM keg.beer
What I want to do is run a query and have it return a list of beers with a Boolean value if the user has tried it or not.
You're not going to run into too many scenarios for "Desired Results" that can't be produced with plain 'ol SQL. In this case you'll use a CASE statement to determine if the person has tried a beer. You'll also want a LEFT OUTER JOIN so you don't drop records coming from your beer table when your filtered userid doesn't have a userbeer record for that beer:
SELECT
beer.name,
beer.id,
beer.country,
CASE WHEN userbeer.username_id IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END AS user_tried_beer_boolean
FROM keg.beer
LEFT OUTER JOIN keg.userbeer
ON beer.id = userbeer.beer_id
AND userbeer.username_id = 1;
As #SeanLange mentioned in the comments here, the restriction of the WHERE statement for the userid would cause records to be dropped that you want in your result set, so we move the restriction of username_id = 1 to the ON portion of the LEFT OUTER JOIN so that the userbeer table results are restricted to just that user before it's joined to the beer table.
Now I need a drink.
SELECT b.id,
b.name,
CASE WHEN u.username_id IS NOT NULL THEN TRUE ELSE FALSE END AS userdrankbeer
FROM keg.beer b
LEFT JOIN ( SELECT * FROM keg.userbeer WHERE username_id = 1 ) u
ON beer.id = userbeer.beer_id
;
I have a table named Persons such as :
ID Name
1 John
2 Jerry
3 Jack
I have set up a form named Form1 with a Combo Box named Combo1 .
Combo1 has 3 values-
1
2
3
All
Then I set up the following query:
Select * From Persons WHERE Persons.ID = (Forms![Form1]![Combo1]);
The query works fine when 1,2 or 3 are selected in the Combo Box but I can't figure out how to make it work to select all the records when the user selects 'All'.
I don't see why VBA is required. Seems to me you can get what you need with only a query ...
Select *
From Persons
WHERE
Persons.ID = Forms![Form1]![Combo1]
OR Forms![Form1]![Combo1] = 'All';
When All is selected in the combo box, the condition Forms![Form1]![Combo1] = 'All' will be True for all rows in the table. So none are excluded from the query's result set.
When anything other than All is selected in the combo box, the query will return only rows whose ID value matches the combo box value.
Not sure what your Combo1 looks like now?
Are you asking to show all entries with ID > 1 or all entries > than the ID selected in Combo1 - and do you still have the ALL option in Combo 1?
If you're just asking your last question:
How can I make it work so that the user can view All Names for ID's
greater than 1?
Then you can probably use
Select * From Persons WHERE Persons.ID > 1
AND (Persons.Name = Forms![Form1]![Combo2] OR Forms![Form1]![Combo2] = 'All');
But right now I think you have everyone confused with what you want. Hope I guessed right and put you on the correct path
I'm trying to write a MYSQL Query that updates a cell in table1 with information gathered from 2 other tables;
The gathering of data from the other 2 tables goes without much issues (it is slow, but that's because one of the 2 tables has 4601537 records in it.. (because all the rows for one report are split in a separate record, meaning that 1 report has more than 200 records)).
The Query that I use to Join the two tables together is:
# First Table, containing Report_ID's: RE
# Table that has to be updated: REGI
# Join Table: JT
SELECT JT.report_id as ReportID, REGI.Serienummer as SerialNo FROM Blancco_Registration.TrialTable as REGI
JOIN (SELECT RE.Value_string, RE.report_id
FROM Blancco_new.mc_report_Entry as RE
WHERE RE.path_id=92) AS JT ON JT.Value_string = REGI.Serienummer
WHERE REGI.HardwareType="PC" AND REGI.BlanccoReport=0 LIMIT 100
This returns 100 records (I limit it because the database is in use during work hours and I don't want to steal all resources).
However, I want to use these results in a Query that updates the REGI table (which it uses to select the 100 records in the first place).
However, I get the error that I cannot select from the table itself while updateing it (logically). So I tried selecting the select statement above into a temp table and than Update it; however, then I get the issue that I get to much results (logically! I only need 1 result and get 100) however, I'm getting stuck in my own thougts.. I ultimately need to fill the ReportID into each record of REGI.
I know it should be possible, but I'm no expert in MySQL.. is there anybody that can point me into the right direction?
Ps. fixing the table containing 400k records is not an option, it's a program from an external developer and I can only read that database.
The errors I'm talking about are as follows:
Error Code: 1093. You can't specify target table 'TrialTable' for update in FROM clause
When I use:
UPDATE TrialTable SET TrialTable.BlanccoReport =
(SELECT JT.report_id as ReportID, REGI.Serienummer as SerialNo FROM Blancco_Registration.TrialTable as REGI
JOIN (SELECT RE.Value_string, RE.report_id
FROM Blancco_new.mc_report_Entry as RE
WHERE RE.path_id=92) AS JT ON JT.Value_string = REGI.Serienummer
WHERE REGI.HardwareType="PC" AND REGI.BlanccoReport=0 LIMIT 100)
WHERE TrialTable.HardwareType="PC" AND TrialTable.BlanccoReport=0)
Then I tried:
UPDATE TrialTable SET TrialTable.BlanccoReport = (SELECT ReportID FROM (<<and the rest of the SQL>>> ) as x WHERE X.SerialNo = TrialTable.Serienummer)
but that gave me the following error:
Error Code: 1242. Subquery returns more than 1 row
Haveing the Query above with a LIMIT 1, gives everything the same result
Firstly, your query seems to be functionally identical to the following:
SELECT RE.report_id ReportID
, REGI.Serienummer SerialNo
FROM Blancco_Registration.TrialTable REGI
JOIN Blancco_new.mc_report_Entry RE
ON RE.Value_string = REGI.Serinummer
WHERE REGI.HardwareType = "PC"
AND REGI.BlanccoReport=0
AND RE.path_id=92
LIMIT 100
So, why not use that?
EDIT:
I still don't get it. I can't see what part of the problem the following fails to solve...
UPDATE TrialTable REGI
JOIN Blancco_new.mc_report_Entry RE
ON RE.Value_string = REGI.Serinummer
SET TrialTable.BlanccoReport = RE.report_id
WHERE REGI.HardwareType = "PC"
AND REGI.BlanccoReport=0
AND RE.path_id=92;
(This is not an answer, but maybe a pointer towards a few points that need further attention)
Your JT sub query looks suspicious to me:
(SELECT RE.Value_string, RE.report_id
FROM Blancco_new.mc_report_Entry as RE
WHERE RE.path_id=92
GROUP BY RE.report_id)
You use group by but don't actually use any aggregate functions. The column RE.Value_string should strictly be something like MAX(RE.Value_string) instead.
I have a search page that has multiple fields that are used to create a refined search. Every field is optional. I'm trying to start crafting my sql query so that it will work given the proper variables but I'm having trouble.
Here is the SQL query I currently have:
SELECT
indicator.indid,
indicator.indicator,
indtype.indtype,
provider.provider,
report.report,
actor.actor
FROM
actor,
indicator,
indtype,
report,
provider
WHERE
indicator.indtypeid = indtype.indtypeid
AND indicator.actorid = actor.actorid
AND indicator.reportid = report.reportid
AND report.providerid = provider.providerid
AND indicator.indicator LIKE '%$indicator%'
AND indicator.indtypeid = $indtypeid;
Whenever I provide an indicator and an indtypeid, the search works just fine. However, when I leave the indtypeid field blank, and have the variable set to * (as its default value), the query returns no results. I've tried playing with the query manually and it doesn't seem to like the * or a % sign. Basically, if only an indicator is specified and no indtypeid is specified, I want to return all indicators for all indtypeids.
I'm sure I'm missing something minor, but I would appreciate any assistance that could be provided. I may be going about this all wrong in the first place.
Try this instead:
SELECT i.indid, i.indicator, it.indtype,
p.provider, r.report, a.actor
FROM actor a
INNER JOIN indicator i ON a.actorid = i.actorid
INNER JOIN indtype it ON i.indtypeid = it.indtypeid
INNER JOIN report r ON i.reportid = r.reportid
INNER JOIN provider p ON r.providerid = p.providerid
WHERE 1 = 1
AND ($indicator IS NULL OR i.indicator LIKE '%$indicator%')
AND ($indtypeid IS NULL OR i.indtypeid = $indtypeid);
So if you pass a $indicator = NULL, then the first condition AND ($indicator IS NULL OR i.indicator LIKE '%$indicator%') will be ignored since it will resolve to True, and the same thing for the second condition.
I've removed other Where condition and replace them with JOINs, and for WHERE 1 = 1 to make the query work fine in case you pass the two variables $indicator and $indtypeid with NULL values for each, in this case it will return all results since 1 = 1 always true.
I've got 3 dataset objects that are nested with each other using entity set objects. I am selecting the data like this
var newList = from s in MainTable
from a in s.SubTable1 where a.ColumnX = "value"
from b in a.Detail where b.Name = "searchValue"
select new {
ID = s.ID,
Company = a.CompanyName,
Name = b.Name,
Date = s.DueDate
Colour = b.Colour,
Town = a.Town
};
and this works fine, but the trouble is there are many records in the Detail object-list/table for each Name value so I get a load of duplicate rows and thus I only want to display one record per b.Name. I have tried putting
group s by b.Name into g
before the select, but then this seems to stop the select enabling me to select the columns I want (there are more, in practice). How do I use the group command in this circumstance while still keeping the output rows in a "flat" format?
Appending comment as answer to close question:-
Of course that if you group your results, you cant get select a column of a child, thats because there may be more than one childs and you have to specify an aggregate column for example the sum,max etx –
