I am trying to run this sql query.
SELECT * FROM AverageFeedInfo WHERE No = (
SELECT No FROM UserResponse2 where Not Complain = '' )
When I run SELECT No FROM UserResponse2 where Not Complain = '' individually I have result 2 and 6, but if I run this
SELECT * FROM AverageFeedInfo WHERE No = (
SELECT No FROM UserResponse2 where Not Complain = '' )
I have only the result for 2 not for 6. Is it possible to get the answer for both 2 and 6. To be more clear is it possible to run the sql query like
SELECT * FROM AverageFeedInfo WHERE No = 2 or No = 6
Generally, when checking set membership in a SQL-based context use of an IN operator is more appropriate than =.

I'm trying to search only the dirname from full path using this queries.
SELECT
`file_name` FROM `tbl_files` where SUBSTR(`file_path`,
LOCATE('/',`file_path`)+1,
(CHAR_LENGTH(`file_path`) - LOCATE('/',REVERSE(`file_path`)) - LOCATE('/',`file_path`))) =
(Select `source_path` from `tbl_transcode_folder` where `trancode_folder_id` = 1 )
But it return me nothing. When i replace (Select source_path from tbl_transcode_folder where trancode_folder_id = 1 ) into it's result mnt/hd/1 like the queries below , It's response want i to but i dont want to do in that way.
SELECT
`file_name` FROM `tbl_files` where SUBSTR(`file_path`,
LOCATE('/',`file_path`)+1,
(CHAR_LENGTH(`file_path`) - LOCATE('/',REVERSE(`file_path`)) - LOCATE('/',`file_path`))) = `mnt/hd/1`
Right now your sub-query returns a random row from the table you need to define a relation between the tbl_transcode_folder table, you need to define a relation between the outer query and the sub-query to make them correlated
SELECT `file_name`
FROM `tbl_files`
where SUBSTR(`file_path`, LOCATE('/',`file_path`)+1
,(CHAR_LENGTH(`file_path`) - LOCATE('/',REVERSE(`file_path`))
- LOCATE('/',`file_path`)))
=(Select `source_path`
from `tbl_transcode_folder`
where `trancode_folder_id` = 1
AND `tbl_files`.`CommonColumn` = `tbl_transcode_folder`.`CommonColumn`)
I need to re-write the following Oracle 10g query to work in SQL Server 2008
It's an update query, where some field are retrieved from a SELECT and some are given (from code).
UPDATE "BMAN_SQL"."CELLS_GLIST"
SET ("GLIST_ID", "GLIST_VALUE_ID") = (
SELECT "GLIST_ID", "GLIST_VAL_ID"
FROM "BMAN_SQL"."GLISTS_VAL_UOR"
WHERE ("UOR_ID"=3)
AND ("GLIST_CODE"='X')
),
"SESSION_ID" = 1553245736,
"USER_ID" = 13
WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM ... )
Note that I need to use the UPDATE SET ... WHERE EXIST ... structure for compatibility with Oracle (query are automatically built by a QueryBuilder class for each specific DBMS).
I also cannot write:
UPDATE "BMAN_SQL"."CELLS_GLIST"
SET ("GLIST_ID", "GLIST_VALUE_ID", "SESSION_ID", "USER_ID") = (
SELECT "GLIST_ID", "GLIST_VAL_ID", 1553245736, 13
FROM "BMAN_SQL"."GLISTS_VAL_UOR"
WHERE ("UOR_ID"=3)
AND ("GLIST_CODE"='X')
)
WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM ... )
because (as per this old thread Oracle "Cannot update to NULL") it returns an error if the SELECT does not fetch any record.
Thanks in advance!
You need to join update query in this case. Please see syntax below. <Your condition here> Replace this section with your join condition here.
UPDATE m
SET
GLIST_ID = r.GLIST_ID
,GLIST_VALUE_ID = r.GLIST_VAL_ID
, SESSION_ID= 1553245736
, USER_ID = 13
from BMAN_SQL.CELLS_GLIST m
inner join BMAN_SQL.GLISTS_VAL_UOR r on <Your condition here>
WHERE
r.UOR_ID=3 AND (r.GLIST_CODE='X') AND
EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM ... )
EDIT
UPDATE BMAN_SQL.CELLS_GLIST
SET
GLIST_ID = (SELECT TOP 1 GLIST_ID FROM BMAN_SQL.GLISTS_VAL_UOR WHERE (UOR_ID=3) AND (GLIST_CODE='X'))
,GLIST_VALUE_ID = (SELECT TOP 1 GLIST_VAL_ID FROM BMAN_SQL.GLISTS_VAL_UOR WHERE (UOR_ID=3) AND (GLIST_CODE='X'))
,SESSION_ID = 1553245736
,USER_ID = 13
WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM ... )
I am trying to migrate Foxpro DB to SQL Server.. I have a CASE statement in Foxpro which works like this..
CASE *variable* = 1
SELECT * FROM TABLEA INTO CURSOR A
CASE *variable* = 2
SELECT * FROM TABLEB INTO CURSOR B
CASE *variable* = 3
SELECT * FROM TABLEC INTO CURSOR C
CASE *variable* = N
SELECT * FROM TABLEN INTO CURSOR N
Is there a way to convert this CASE statement to SQL without using IF? I am assuming that in SQL Server CASE can be written only within a SELECT.
Thank you..
Is this what you are asking:
SELECT * FROM IIF(var = 1, 'table1', IIF(var = 2, 'table2', 'table3')) INTO CURSOR IIF(var = 1, 'cur1', IIF(var = 2, 'cur2', 'cur3'))
I have a contact table I wish to query when a certain condition exists. I tried the query below but am getting a syntax error.
SELECT *
FROM contact_details
WHERE contactDeleted` =0
AND IF ( contactVisibility = "private"
, SELECT * FROM contact_details
WHERE contactUserId = 1
, IF( contactVisibility = "group"
, SELECT * FROM contact_details
WHERE contactGroup = 3
)
)
If I'm understanding your question correctly (which is difficult with the lack of info you've provided. Sample datasets and expected outcomes are typically helpful), then I don't believe you need IFs at all for what you want. The following will return contacts that are not deleted and who either have (visibility = "private" and userId = 1) OR (visibility = "group" and group = 3)
SELECT *
FROM contact_details
WHERE contactDeleted = 0
AND (
(contactVisibility = "public")
OR
(contactVisibility = "private" AND contactUserId = 1)
OR
(contactVisibility = "group" AND contactGroup = 3)
)
I am assuming you want to use the IF() function and not the statement which is for stored functions..
Refer to this link for more information on that.
Notice that you have put 2 select statements in there, where the custom return values are supposed to be. So you are returning a SELECT *... now notice that in your upper level sql statement you have an AND.. so you basically writing AND SELECT *.. which will give you the syntax error.
Try using .. AND x IN (SELECT *) .. to find if x is in the returned values.
Let me also list this link to make use of an existing and well written answer which may also applicable to your question.
Presently troubleshooting a problem where running this SQL query:
UPDATE tblBenchmarkData
SET OriginalValue = DataValue, OriginalUnitID = DataUnitID,
DataValue = CAST(DataValue AS float) * 1.335
WHERE
FieldDataSetID = '6956beeb-a1e7-47f2-96db-0044746ad6d5'
AND ZEGCodeID IN
(SELECT ZEGCodeID FROM tblZEGCode
WHERE(ZEGCode = 'C004') OR
(LEFT(ZEGParentCode, 4) = 'C004'))
Results in the following error:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Error converting data type nvarchar to float.
The really odd thing is, if I change the UPDATE to SELECT to inspect the values that are retrieved are numerical values:
SELECT DataValue
FROM tblBenchmarkData
WHERE FieldDataSetID = '6956beeb-a1e7-47f2-96db-0044746ad6d5'
AND ZEGCodeID IN
(SELECT ZEGCodeID
FROM tblZEGCode WHERE(ZEGCode = 'C004') OR
(LEFT(ZEGParentCode, 4) = 'C004'))
Here are the results:
DataValue
2285260
1205310
Would like to use TRY_PARSE or something like that; however, we are running on SQL Server 2008 rather than SQL Server 2012. Does anyone have any suggestions? TIA.
It would be helpful to see the schema definition of tblBenchmarkData, but you could try using ISNUMERIC in your query. Something like:
SET DataValue = CASE WHEN ISNUMERIC(DataValue)=1 THEN CAST(DataValue AS float) * 1.335
ELSE 0 END
Order of execution not always matches one's expectations.
If you set a where clause, it generally does not mean the calculations in the select list will only be applied to the rows that match that where. SQL Server may easily decide to do a bulk calculation and then filter out unwanted rows.
That said, you can easily write try_parse yourself:
create function dbo.try_parse(#v nvarchar(30))
returns float
with schemabinding, returns null on null input
as
begin
if isnumeric(#v) = 1
return cast(#v as float);
return null;
end;
So starting with your update query that's giving an error (please forgive me for rewriting it for my own clarity):
UPDATE B
SET
OriginalValue = DataValue,
OriginalUnitID = DataUnitID,
DataValue = CAST(DataValue AS float) * 1.335
FROM
dbo.tblBenchmarkData B
INNER JOIN dbo.tblZEGCode Z
ON B.ZEGCodeID = Z.ZEGCodeID
WHERE
B.FieldDataSetID = '6956beeb-a1e7-47f2-96db-0044746ad6d5'
AND (
Z.ZEGCode = 'C004' OR
Z.ZEGParentCode LIKE 'C004%'
)
I think you'll find that a SELECT statement with exactly the same expressions will give the same error:
SELECT
OriginalValue,
DataValue NewOriginalValue,
OriginalUnitID,
DataUnitID OriginalUnitID,
DataValue,
CAST(DataValue AS float) * 1.335 NewDataValue
FROM
dbo.tblBenchmarkData B
INNER JOIN dbo.tblZEGCode Z
ON B.ZEGCodeID = Z.ZEGCodeID
WHERE
B.FieldDataSetID = '6956beeb-a1e7-47f2-96db-0044746ad6d5'
AND (
Z.ZEGCode = 'C004' OR
Z.ZEGParentCode LIKE 'C004%'
)
This should show you the rows that can't convert:
SELECT
B.*
FROM
dbo.tblBenchmarkData B
INNER JOIN dbo.tblZEGCode Z
ON B.ZEGCodeID = Z.ZEGCodeID
WHERE
B.FieldDataSetID = '6956beeb-a1e7-47f2-96db-0044746ad6d5'
AND (
Z.ZEGCode = 'C004' OR
Z.ZEGParentCode LIKE 'C004%'
)
AND IsNumeric(DataValue) = 0
-- AND IsNumeric(DataValue + 'E0') = 0 -- try this if the prior doesn't work
The trick in the last commented line is to tack on things to the string to force only valid numbers to be numeric. For example, if you wanted only integers, IsNumeric(DataValue + '.0E0') = 0 would show you those that aren't.
