How would i make a select statement select the row with the nearest values? e.g.: I have 3 labels, labels1 2 and 3, with values of 1.2, 2 and 5.8 In my table i have 4 columns, first is the data im after, and the next 3 relate to the three labels. I want to select one row, where the values of labels match it the closest.......
at present our site has a search function which then populates a grid with results from our catalogue database... I'm trying to implement product availability into the grid, but the stock information is stored in a completely different database in a different location. Both the main search results and the stock levels have to be referenced in the same datasource to get them both in the same grid; does anyone have any thoughts on how to do this? I'm not hugely experienced with SQL, but could I create a view containing aspects of both db's or are these limited to a single db?
1.LookupPageInfo and (LookupPageInfoId,pathmessageID,pagemessageID)

I have two dropdown list, which is 'names' and 'types' and it's being populated by a dataset. It contains an additional item "-- ALL --" to indicate that all items of a particular field are being shown. I have an SQL select statement to filter the records according to the selected item of the dropdowns. I used a select statement to bind the records to a datagrid with regards to the selected items.
SELECT * FROM table where name = ddlnameselecteditem AND type = ddltypeselecteditem
The problem now is when I select a name from the names dropdownlist and types dropdownlist has a selection of -- ALL --, there would be no return records because there's no such thing as '-- ALL --' record in column 'types' i'm querying. I need to display rows of the selected 'name' while still showing all the 'types'. How could I achieve this? I think I need to avoid the '-- ALL --' item from the dropdownlist.
I'm pretty new at ASP. I've got a sheet I'm trying to modify using an IF statement. I tried putting them in, in different ways, but it either shows up in the form or I get the options multiple times
[Code]....
i have a variable picked up elsewhere strArea, so I was trying to do something like
[Code]....
I have tried putting the if's in different places, as well as case statement but usually I end up with my drop down option list as 1 1 2 1 2 3
This code works just fine for me to select * from x,y,z. However what I want to do is retrieve the values return and assign them to variables. How do I go about this?
I'm trying to pull a list of clients that have both of two codes in the code table. Here is what I have tried and it does not return any rows. I know that there are clients that have both codes.
I have records in the datatable which I have retreived from xml file.
Dim docDataSet As New DataSet Dim docReader As New XmlDocument Dim xnl As XmlNodeList docReader.Load("UserProfile.xml") xnl = docReader.SelectNodes("/Users/user") For Each xn As XmlNode In xnl Dim xr As New XmlNodeReader(xn) docDataSet.ReadXml(xr) Next xn Dim Dm_table As DataTable = ds.tables(0)
Now what I want to do is execute a select query like below:
Select * from user where userid in (select ID from Dm_table)
Retreive the records from the User table based on the ID's in the datatable.
I thought this would be easy but cannot now find out of to do it. All I want to do is execute an sql query on a table and in addition to the table's columns I want to also select/output a field that is calculated within the query. The table has a column "Owner" and I want to compare this to the UserId to produce a bool column "mine". Effectively doing:Select *, (Owner=@UserId) as mine where.....however, this doesn't work so how can I calculate a column in the select statement?
I have to pull up a list of people by their branch number which could vary, and give a detailed report on there performance using a select queries. I have the select queries but how can i create a script to look similar to this one. Ive got the branch drop downlist already created just need to know how i can go about pulling all the users in this group and doing this select to all of them. someone told me I might need to use cursors to loop thru a select with every person in the list but im not sure how to go about that.
select fldusername from tbluser where fldio='o' and flduserbranch=@branchid
is going to give me the names of the people i need to query. but how can i run a query on each of them seperate?
Here is the deal. I need to create a Stored Procedure that has 2 SELECT statements. Now in ASP.NET, I know that a DataSet can have multiple tables and the DataAdapter can do just that. I am stuck with a scenario where I need to get a value from the first SELECT statement which will later be used in the second SELECT statement. I am creating a SP that passes one parameter (@AnswerID). Which should give me 2 resultsets. See below SELECT statements.
[Code]....
So how do I get the QuestionID from the first SELECT statement?
Basically I am creating a Questionnaire that has Question Dependacies. So from the above SQL statements I would like to display the Question Title with it's relevant answer options but depending on the previous Answer selected hence the @AnswerID parameter.
The reason why I want to use 2 SELECT statements is because I don't want to have 2 roundtrips to th server. So in my code the DataAdapter should return 2 resultsets and fill the DataSet.
If there is any another solution that can prevent 2 roundtrips to the server, I would most definitely like to know how to do it.
Unfortunately, I get the following error message:Message="The ORDER BY clause is invalid in views, inline functions, derived tables, subqueries, and common table expressions, unless TOP or FOR XML is also specified."
I am using join to get values from three tables. I want the first column to be Sl.No which autoincrements by 1.What should i write in the select for the first column.
this might be an easy one, but I just can't get it.I am creating a page which will query a table with many columns and most items are not unique. I need to be able to get a list of records that match as many of the (up to 4) search criteria as possible.Example:am user searching for the following items, I enter at least one and up to 4 of the items below in a text box:Name, age, gender, weight (user may or may not fill in all of them).If he just enters "F" for gender, then he will get a list of thousands of females with their name, age, gender and weight.However if he enters "F" for gender and "300" for weight, he will get a much smaller list of returned records.I need to be able to create a sql statement that can perform that search with that functionality.
Select ColA = ID ,ColB = Name ,ColC = invtotamt + (SELECT SUM(TableA.camount) FROM TableA WHERE TableA.csucceed = 1 AND TableA.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableA.cID) ,ColD = ((SELECT SUM(TableA.camount) FROM TableA WHERE TableA.csucceed = 1 AND TableA.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableA.cID) ,ColE = (SELECT SUM(TableB.camount) FROM TableB WHERE TableB.csucceed = 1 AND TableB.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableB.cID) FROM TABLE
it look complicated, and long statement, actually it's easy, it is like: (it's a sample, not a really one)
Select ColA = ID ,ColB = Name ,ColC = ColD + ColE ,ColD = ColE + ColC ,ColE = ColC + ColD/100 FROM TABLE
it looks much easier with ALIAS. But, it seems i cannot directly use alias in select stetement like that. if i cannot use alise, i have to copy paste lots of same column definition. how can i use the alias in select statement?? this bothers me a lots of times!
