I am trying to think of a query that will search a table for matching values across 2 fields.
For example, what would be the query to identity tbl_id 202 and tbl_id 203 as having matching values in both tbl_row and tbl_col?
Thanks

This isn't the cleanest way to do it, as it'll double-up on the number of rows returned, but it'll show you the dupes. Assuming the table name is tbl:
select t1., t2. from tbl t1, tbl t2 where t1.tbl_row = t2.tbl_row and t1.tbl_col = t2.tbl_col;
select distinct t1.tbl_id
from
tbl as t1
inner join tbl as t2
on t1.tbl_row = t2.tbl_row
and t1.tbl_col = t2.tbl_col
and t1.tbl_id <> t2.tbl_id
Select T1.tbl_id, T2.tbl_id
FROM Table T1, Table T2
WHERE T1.tbl_row = T2.tbl_row and T1.tbl_col = T2.tbl_col and T1.tbl_id <> T2.tbl_id

I'm trying to update a column of a table so that is equal to the count of something in another table. Like this:
UPDATE TABLE
SET TOTAL = (SELECT COUNT(f1)
FROM TABLE2
GROUP BY f2);
But I keep getting sub query returns more than 1 row, and I can't think of how to fix it.
UPDATE (copied from the comment)
f2 is the relation between TABLE and TABLE2 – Thomasd d
Based on your comment
f2 is the relation between TABLE and TABLE2
you probably want something like this
UPDATE TABLE T1, (SELECT f2, COUNT(F1) cnt FROM TABLE2 GROUP BY f2) T2
SET T1.TOTAL = T2.cnt
WHERE T1.f2=T2.f2
adapt T1.f2 if necessary
UPDATE t1
SET total = ( SELECT COUNT(f1)
FROM t2
WHERE t1.f2 = t2.f2 );

Add WHERE total IS NULL if you do not need to recalculate values for rows which have a value already.
Your subquery is returning multiple values and your SET statement is only expecting one. This might fix your code if that is what you are looking for.
UPDATE TABLE
SET TOTAL = (SELECT COUNT(f1)
FROM TABLE2)
I need to join two tables in SQL. There are no common fields. But the one table have a field with the value krin1001 and I need it to be joined with the row in the other table where the value is 1001.
The idea behind the joining is i have multiple customers, but in the one table there customer id is 'krin1001' 'krin1002' and so on, in this table is how much they have sold. In the other table there customer is is '1001' '1002' and so on, and in this table is there name and adress and so on. So it will always be the first 4 charakters i need to strip from the field before matching and joining. It might not always be 'krin' i need it to work with 'khjo1001' also, and it still needs to join on the '1001' value from the other table.
Is that possible?
Hope you can help me.
You need to use substring:
ON SUBSTRING(TableA.Field, 5, 4) = TableB.Field
Or Right:
ON RIGHT(TableA.Field, 4) = TableB.Field
You can also try to use CHARINDEX function for join operation. If value from table1 contains value from table2 row will be included in result set.
;WITH table1 AS(
SELECT 'krin1001' AS val
UNION ALL
SELECT 'xxx'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'xyz123'
),
table2 AS(
SELECT '1001' AS val
UNION ALL
SELECT '12345'
UNION ALL
SELECT '123'
)
SELECT * FROM table1 AS t
JOIN table2 AS T2 ON CHARINDEX(T2.val, T.val) > 0
Use it as:
SELECT
*
FROM table t1
INNER JOIN table t2 ON RIGHT(t1.col1, 4) = t2.col1;
I have 2 tables. I want to find out whether the values present in the first table is there in another table with a different field name.
Here is how it looks,
Table1
BillNo
43529179
43256787
35425676
25467778
24354758
45754748
Table2
BNo
113104808
25426577
268579679
2542135464
252525232
235263663
I have 137 records in table1 that needs to be checked against table2.
Instead of doing it one by one using the following command,
Select * from Table2 where BNo = '43529179';
This gives the result for just the mentioned value. Is there a way to check for all the values in a single query?
Thanks!
You can use a sub-select to compare against:
Select * from Table2 where BNo IN (SELECT BillNo FROM Table1);
That will "evalaute" to something like Select * from Table2 where BNo IN (113104808, 25426577, 268579679, 2542135464, 252525232, ...);
Join the tables, and check how many matching records there are:
select
count(*) as Matches
from
Table1 as t1
inner join Table2 as t2 on t2.BNo = t1.BillNo
You can also use a left join to pick out the records in table 1 that has no matching record in table 2:
select
t1.BillNo
from
Table1 as t1
left join Table2 as t2 on t2.BNo = t1.BillNo
where
t2.BNo is null
Have a table where certain rows come in couples which have a matching GUID. Just wondering how to SELECT all data from the table but ONLY if the rows exist as a couple with a matching GUID.
You can use a query like this:
SELECT *
FROM yourtable
WHERE GUID IN (SELECT GUID FROM yourtable GROUP BY GUID HAVING COUNT(*)=2)
The subquery will return all GUIDs that appears exactly twice, the outer query will return all rows associated to those GUIDs.
Please see fiddle here.
Try something like this:
SELECT t1.*
FROM
table t1
, table t2
WHERE
t1.guid = t2.guid
AND t1.id <> t2.id
;
table: your table name
id: some field that you know is different for both rows
Try
SELECT t.*
FROM Table1 t JOIN
(
SELECT guid
FROM Table1
GROUP BY guid
HAVING COUNT(*) = 2
) q ON t.guid = q.guid
Here is SQLFiddle demo
I don't know why I am confused with this query.
I have two table: Table A with 900 records and Table B with 800 records. Both table need to contain the same data but there is some mismatch.
I need to write a mysql query to insert missing 100 records from Table A to Table B.
In the end, both Table A and Table B should be identical.
I do not want to truncate all the entries first and then do a insert from another table. So please any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
It is also possible to use LEFT OUTER JOIN for that. This will avoid subquery overhead (when system might execute subquery one time for each record of outer query) like in John Woo's answer, and will avoid doing unnecessary work overwriting already existing 800 records like in user2340435's one:
INSERT INTO b
SELECT a.* FROM a
LEFT OUTER JOIN b ON b.id = a.id
WHERE b.id IS NULL;
This will first select all rows from A and B tables including all columns from both tables, but for rows which exist in A and don't exist in B all columns for B table will be NULL.
Then it filter only such latter rows (WHERE b.id IS NULL),
and at last it inserts all these rows into B table.
I think you can use IN for this. (this is a simpliplification of your query)
INSERT INTO table2 (id, name)
SELECT id, name
FROM table1
WHERE (id,name) NOT IN
(SELECT id, name
FROM table2);
SQLFiddle Demo
AS you can see on the demonstration, table2 has only 1 records but after executing the query, 2 records were inserted on table2.
If it's mysql and the tables are identical, then this should work:
REPLACE INTO table1 SELECT * FROM table2;
This will insert the missing records into Table1
INSERT INTO Table2
(Col1, Col2....)
(
SELECT Col1, Col2,... FROM Table1
EXCEPT
SELECT Col1, Col2,... FROM Table2
)
You can then run an update query to match the records that differ.
UPDATE Table2
SET
Col1= T1.Col1,
Col2= T1.Col2,
FROM
Table T1
INNER JOIN
Table2 T2
ON
T1.Col1 = T2.Col1
Code also works when a group by and having clauses are used. Tested SQL 2012 (11.0.5058) Tab1 is source with new records, Tab 2 is the destination to be updated. Tab 2 also has an Identity column. (Yes folks, real world is not as neat and clean as the lab assignments)
INSERT INTO Tab2
SELECT a.T1,a.T2,a.T3,a.T4,a.Val1,a.Val2,a.Val3,a.Val4,-9,-9,-9,-9,MIN(hits) MinHit,MAX(hits) MaxHit,SUM(count) SumCnt, count(distinct(week)) WkCnt
FROM Tab1 a
LEFT OUTER JOIN Tab2 b ON b.t1 = a.t1 and b.t2 = a.t2 and b.t3 = a.t3 and b.t4 = a.t4 and b.val1 = a.val1 and b.val2 = a.val2 and b.val3 = a.val3 and b.val4 = a.val4
WHERE b.t1 IS NULL or b.Val1 is NULL
group by a.T1,a.T2,a.T3,a.T4,a.Val1,a.Val2,a.Val3,a.Val4 having MAX(returns)<4 and COUNT(distinct(week))>2 ;
