I have created a table and need to update the entries by comparing the data from the view that I have created in SQL server
This action need to performed by a button click in MS Access forms
I have written the following query in MS Access - Query. Exported the view totaltemp1 from sql server.
update P_Payroll as p
inner join totaltemp1 as tp on p.emp_id = tp.emp_id
inner join P_Student_Supervisor as ss on tp.emp_id = ss.emp_id
set Number_of_Hours = tp.temp_drop_hours,
Total_Payment = tp.temp_drop_hours*ss.emp_hourlywage
where p.emp_id = tp.emp_id and ss.emp_id = p.emp_id;
Previously I got this working correctly in SQL server in stand alone mode. Code for that as follows.
update P_Payroll set Number_of_Hours = tp.temp_drop_hours, Total_Payment = tp.temp_drop_hours*ss.emp_hourlywage
from totaltemp1 as tp, P_Payroll as p, P_Student_Supervisor as ss
where p.emp_id = tp.emp_id and ss.emp_id = p.emp_id;
I have checked the data structure too. I am just getting an error
"Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'p.emp_id = tp.emp_id inner join P_Student_Supervisor as ss on tp.emp_id = ss.emp_i"
Thanks for your time
Pk.
Two things you can check... first, remove the WHERE clause - you're already specifying those conditions in the JOIN statements.
Then, put brackets around your joins...
UPDATE (P_Payroll AS p
INNER JOIN totaltemp1 AS tp on p.emp_id = tp.emp_id)
INNER JOIN P_Student_Supervisor AS ss on tp.emp_id = ss.emp_id
SET p.Number_of_Hours = tp.temp_drop_hours,
p.Total_Payment = tp.temp_drop_hours * ss.emp_hourlywage
Access like brackets...

I'm trying to update records through a single inner join with multiple criteria. My best effort so far is this:
UPDATE FormData d
INNER JOIN ProductGrowthDays g
ON d.ProductCode = g.ProductCode AND
ON d.ProductionLineCode = g.ProductionLineCode AND
ON g.MonthIndex = MONTH(d.SowingDate)
SET d.EstimatedDays = g.GrowingDays
WHERE
d.EventTypeId = 1
Access gives the error 'Syntax error (missing operator)' and highlights the 'r' in 'd.ProductCode'. The join is guaranteed to give a single row.
Could anyone give me pointers on how to fix this?
D'oh. The answer was as follows:
UPDATE FormData d
INNER JOIN ProductGrowthDays g
ON (d.ProductCode = g.ProductCode
AND d.ProductionLineCode = g.ProductionLineCode
AND g.MonthIndex = MONTH(d.SowingDate))
SET d.EstimatedDays = g.GrowingDays
WHERE
d.EventTypeId = 1
I was sure I tried that at one point, but obviously not. Well, leaving this here if someone else should need it.
Having a problem with the plugin DMSF in redmine I have found a link with a SQL query that could fix the issue, however I am using PostgreSQL and that query returns a syntax error directly on f.project_id.
The MySQL query is:
update dmsf_files f
set f.project_id = (select d.project_id from dmsf_folders d where d.id = f.dmsf_folder_id and d.system = 1)
where (select dmsf_folders.system from dmsf_folders where dmsf_folders.id = f.dmsf_folder_id) = 1;
What should be the PostgreSQL equivalent ?
I have found some online Database syntax translator but unfortunately with no success at all.
Remove the alias from the left side of the SET clause:
update dmsf_files f
set project_id = (select d.project_id from dmsf_folders d
where d.id = f.dmsf_folder_id and d.system = 1)
where (select dmsf_folders.system from dmsf_folders
where dmsf_folders.id = f.dmsf_folder_id) = 1;
I had a query which was working just fine:
#schedule = Schedule.find(params[:id])
#schedule_tasks = ScheduleTask.select("s.*, t.*, t.*, d.*, st.*").from("schedule_tasks st").
joins("left join schedules s ON s.id = st.schedule_id").
joins("left join tasks t ON t.id = st.task_id").
joins("right join days d ON d.id = st.day_id").
order("d.number, t.name").
group_by{|d| d.number}
I had to refine my search to only schedule_tasks with a specific schedule_id, so I edited the second line to:
joins("left join schedules s ON s.id = st.schedule_id AND s.id = ?", #schedule.id).
This has cause the following error:
unknown class: Fixnum
The error goes away if I take out the group_by - but I need that, and I have tried hard coding in the number instead of #schedule.id and that does not work either, a google search does not reveal a lot of details on this error.
For anyone coming here from Google, I used plain string interpolation to fix this issue. This method is vulnerable to SQL Injection, so make sure you type check your variables before using them.
In this case I would do
#schedule_id = #schedule.id
.
.
.
joins("left join schedules s ON s.id = st.schedule_id AND s.id = #{#schedule_id}")
Rather than following learning_to_swim's answer, which as noted is at risk of SQL injection, couldn't you cast your #schedule_id to a string?
#tasks = ScheduleTask.joins("left join [...] s.id = ?", #schedule.id.to_s)
I have had a read through a few of the other issues around joining on SQL Updates but haven't been able to finalise a query.
System is all in MySQL (INNODB table structure)
We are wanting to update an amount in one table that will increase an amount based on 2 variables from another table. There are a few constraints that need to be checked in the update to make sure the variables from the second table match the keys in the table to be updated
UPDATE as1
SET as1.amount = as1.amount + (b1.workers * b1.level)
FROM account_stock AS as1
INNER JOIN building AS b1 ON as1.accountID = b1.accountID
INNER JOIN building_seed AS bs1 ON bs1.buildingID = b1.buildingID
WHERE bs1.stockID = as1.stockID
AND b1.accountID = as1.accountID
AND b1.locID = as1.locID
AND b1.status = active
AND b1.gTime > 0
It's getting an error and I can't pick it. Sorry if it is a simple question, all my SQL is self taught so some of the habits I have aren't very good!
MySQL syntax for UPDATE is different. There is no FROM:
UPDATE
account_stock AS as1
INNER JOIN building AS b1 ON as1.accountID = b1.accountID
INNER JOIN building_seed AS bs1 ON bs1.buildingID = b1.buildingID
SET as1.amount = as1.amount + (b1.workers * b1.level)
WHERE bs1.stockID = as1.stockID
AND b1.locID = as1.locID
AND b1.status = active
AND b1.gTime > 0 ;
--- removed duplicate :
--- AND b1.accountID = as1.accountID
Also: is active a column or you meant to write?: AND b1.status = 'active'
Mysql Version Works
UPDATE results SET rCARRIER = (
SELECT cellCarrierName
FROM tblImportedTempTable, user, cellCarrier
WHERE
userEmployeeNumber = tblImportedTempTable.EMPLOYEENUMBER
AND userId = results.rUserId
AND results.rPHONENUMBER = tblImportedTempTable.PHONENUMBER
AND CARRIER = cellCarrierId )
I have written this sql that works fine in MySql(above) and fails in access 2003(below) any suggestions? Is one or both of the 2 nonstandard sql? Does Access hav an admin problem?
Sorry the field and table names are diferent this is the ACCESS version.
Access version
UPDATE tblWorkerPhoneNumber SET tblWorkerPhoneNumber.PhoneCarrier = (
SELECT PhoneCarrierType.CarrierName
FROM tblImportedPhoneCarrier, tblWorkerMaster, PhoneCarrierType
WHERE
tblWorkerMaster.EmployeeNumber = tblImportedPhoneCarrier.Emp
AND tblWorkerMaster.WorkerID = tblWorkerPhoneNumber.WorkerID
AND tblWorkerPhoneNumber.PhoneNumber = tblImportedPhoneCarrier.Cell
AND tblImportedPhoneCarrier.CarrierCode = PhoneCarrierType.CarrierID )
Error Message
Operation must use and updateable query
Thanks
In MS Access, something like this:
UPDATE tblWorkerPhoneNumber
INNER JOIN tblWorkerMaster ON tblWorkerMaster.WorkerID = tblWorkerPhoneNumber.WorkerID
INNER JOIN tblImportedPhoneCarrier ON tblWorkerPhoneNumber.PhoneNumber = tblImportedPhoneCarrier.Cell
INNER JOIN PhoneCarrierType ON tblImportedPhoneCarrier.CarrierCode = PhoneCarrierType.CarrierID
SET tblWorkerPhoneNumber.PhoneCarrier = PhoneCarrierType.CarrierName
WHERE tblWorkerMaster.EmployeeNumber = tblImportedPhoneCarrier.Emp
(Might need to change the join conditions; I'm not familiar with your schema)
