My Access table has product name and price for each record. I want to get a count of all records with price less than a current record's price. How do I use the count function to do this? Thanks.
Access type:
SELECT Table1.ID, DCount("*","Table1","Price<" & [Price]) AS NumCheaper
FROM Table1
This will show #Error where there is a null price.
More general:
SELECT a.ID, a.ANumber,
(SELECT Count(*) FROM Table1 b
WHERE b.ANumber<a.ANumber) AS Num_Cheaper
FROM Table1 a
This will show 0 where there is a null price.
Try this
SELECT COUNT(PRODUCT_ID) WHERE PRICE < [YOUR_CURRENT_PRICE] GROUP BY PRODUCT_ID

I have table like this
enter image description here
I need to get the data only whose age > 10, along with that i need to get the total number of records present in the table. ie. in this example it is 4 records. what i need is in single query i need to get the total number of records present in table and columns which i query.
Query will be somewhat like
SELECT ID, NAME, count(TOTAL NUMBER OF RECORDS IN TABLE) as Count from MYTABLE WHERE AGE > 10
Any idea about this ?
You can use a subquery in the FROM clause:
SELECT ID, NAME, c.cnt as Count
FROM MYTABLE CROSS JOIN
(SELECT COUNT(*) as cnt FROM MYTABLE) c
WHERE AGE > 10 ;
Both databases support window functions, but they are not really helpful here, because the count is not filtered in the same way as the outer query. If you do want the filter for both, then in the most recent versions you can do:
SELECT ID, NAME, COUNT(*) OVER () as cnt
FROM MYTABLE
WHERE AGE > 10 ;
You can try below - using scalar subquery
SELECT ID, NAME, age,(select count(*) from mytable WHERE AGE > 10) as Count
from MYTABLE
WHERE AGE > 10
I have the following ORDERS table
I know query to select the customer that has ordered the greatest quantity. However, how would it work, if say, two customers have the same quantity. What query should I write to show both the customers?
You can use a subquery which checks that the quantity for a given record matches the largest quantity observed in the table:
SELECT *
FROM yourTable
WHERE qty = (SELECT MAX(qty) FROM yourTable)
This will return multiple records if there are more than one customer sharing the maximum quantity.
If you only wanted to get back a single record, even in the presence of ties, you could use this approach:
SELECT *
FROM yourTable
ORDER BY qty DESC
LIMIT 1
I think you want sum of qty per custNum.
If so you can try like:
select custNum,
sum(qty) as qty
from Orders
group by custNum
order by sum(qty) desc;
Fiddle here:
http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/47931b/10
SELECT custnum,sum(qty) as total
FROM orders
group by custnum
having sum(qty) = (SELECT MAX(qty) FROM orders);
This will return both values.
I'm trying to select rows where a certain column does not have a certain value, such as 0, but I'm unable to get this to work.
SELECT *
FROM rentals
GROUP BY date, rooms, price
HAVING show_independently < 1
If show_independently is 1, then I don't want to group them. However, this statement shows no rows even though most rows have show_independently as 0.
SELECT date, rooms, price
FROM rentals
WHERE show_independently < 1
GROUP BY date, rooms, price
If you only want to group some rows and leave others ungrouped, you can use a UNION:
SELECT *
FROM rentals
WHERE show_independently <> 1
GROUP BY date, rooms, price
UNION ALL
SELECT *
FROM rentals
WHERE show_independently = 1
This groups only those where show_independently is not 1, and includes the rest without grouping them.
A HAVING clause is used when you are using an aggregate function to filter data.
A typical query with HAVING:
SELECT yourColumn, aggregate_function(otherColumn)
FROM yourTable
WHERE yourColumn = someValue
GROUP BY yourColumn
HAVING aggregate_function(otherColumn) = someOtherValue
I think you want to be using a WHERE clause:
SELECT date, rooms, price
FROM rentals
WHERE show_independently < 1
GROUP BY date, rooms, price
I want to select data from a table in MySQL where a specific field has the minimum value, I've tried this:
SELECT * FROM pieces WHERE MIN(price)
Please any help?
this will give you result that has the minimum price on all records.
SELECT *
FROM pieces
WHERE price = ( SELECT MIN(price) FROM pieces )
SQLFiddle Demo
This is how I would do it, assuming I understand the question.
SELECT * FROM pieces ORDER BY price ASC LIMIT 1
If you are trying to select multiple rows where each of them may have the same minimum price, then #JohnWoo's answer should suffice.
Basically here we are just ordering the results by the price in ascending order (ASC) and taking the first row of the result.
This also works:
SELECT
pieces.*
FROM
pieces inner join (select min(price) as minprice from pieces) mn
on pieces.price = mn.minprice
(since this version doesn't have a where condition with a subquery, it could be used if you need to UPDATE the table, but if you just need to SELECT i would reccommend to use John Woo solution)
Use HAVING MIN(...)
Something like:
SELECT MIN(price) AS price, pricegroup
FROM articles_prices
WHERE articleID=10
GROUP BY pricegroup
HAVING MIN(price) > 0;
Efficient way (with any number of records):
SELECT id, name, MIN(price) FROM (select * from table order by price) as t group by id
In fact, depends what you want to get:
- Just the min value:
SELECT MIN(price) FROM pieces
A table (multiples rows) whith the min value: Is as John Woo said above.
But, if can be different rows with same min value, the best is ORDER them from another column, because after or later you will need to do it (starting from John Woo answere):
SELECT * FROM pieces
WHERE price = ( SELECT MIN(price) FROM pieces)
ORDER BY stock ASC
To improve #sberry's answer, if the column has a null value then simply doing ORDER BY would select a row with null value. Add a WHERE clause to get correct results:
SELECT * FROM pieces
WHERE price>0
ORDER BY price ASC
LIMIT 1;
Or if there is a chance of having negative values and/or VARCHAR, etc. do:
SELECT * FROM pieces
WHERE price IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY price ASC
LIMIT 1;
To make it simpler
SELECT *,MIN(price) FROM prod LIMIT 1
Put * so it will display the all record of the minimum value
I use similar queries (10) as following queries (modified) to find sum
SELECT sum(amount) AS amount
FROM `students`
WHERE sex='M'
&& name in ('salil', 'anil', 'gaikwad')
...and:
SELECT sum(amount) AS amount
FROM `students`
WHERE sex='M'
&& name in ('salil1', 'anil1', 'gaikwad1')
i want to make a single query of the above 10 queries. is it possible?
You can use UNION
SELECT 'subset1', sum(amount) AS amount FROM students WHERE sex='M' and name in ('salil', 'anil', 'gaikwad')
UNION
SELECT 'subset2', sum(amount) AS amount FROM students WHERE sex='M' and name in ('salil1', 'anil1', 'gaikwad1')
However, you probably query these sets of students for a reason, perhaps anil, salil and gaikwad are one group of students. If so, you should reflect this in the database structure, not in your code.
You could add a field 'SUbset' or 'Group' or whatever that is, to students table, so it looks like this:
name group_id
salil 1
anil 1
gaikwad 1
salil1 2
...
Then you can do
select group_id, sum(amount) from students group by group_id
Try something like this
SELECT sum(amount) AS amount
FROM students INNER JOIN
(SELECT 'salil%' Val UNION SELECT 'anil%' UNION SELECT 'gaikwad%') s ON students.NAME LIKE s.Val
WHERE sex='M'
This allows you to use the values in the second Table to join with LIKE.
