This may be better asked in the C# forum. The biggest hurdle to database access is the security. Once you have solved that them it becomes more of a C# problem of object typing.

i need to create a login interface and link ITS Typing Test System to a database to capture following:
1. Name (new field, to be created in login interface)
2. (document.JobOp.typed.value.replace(/ /g, " ").split(" ").length)
3. totalTime
4. wpmType
5. aftReport

Dear all,
I have this sort of weird question in terms of sql data and query.
Consider the dataset below. I have this results in to a table variable (SQL 2008)
EmailAddress ID
abc@test.com 1000
def@test.com 1001
ppp@test.com 1002
iii@test.com 1002
ttt@test.com 1000
Now, what I want out of this table variable is the below result
EmailAddress ID
abc@test.com 1000
def@test.com 1001
ppp@test.com 1002
What I want is to have first available unique ID and their email address. Can anyone please write a query or direct me.
Thanks.

There are a number of solutions to this one.
Use a sub query select the top 1 from table order by ID
Or you can use the Row_Number() and partition grouped and ordered by the ID and an outer query that selected row 1 for each ID.
There is also a CTE solution I have seen posted but don't know the details.

You can do this by using Row_Number functionality with 'Partition By' on ID Column.
Then put in Where Claue with condition as RowNum =1.

Are you sure you've got that query right?

Is there are reason that you want me to doubt the post?

Look at the field in the min as a hint.

I did. He wants the ID's unique, and the first mailadress for that ID.
Did I miss something?

Hi, everybody
I need to conduct a large amount of data analysis on database. Could anyone recommend an interactive application for data analysis?
The requirements are:
1. Able to cope with the unexpected requirement rapidly.
2. Able to perform further computations on results interactively (base on the mass data).
3. Easy to confront even a large amount of complex computations
What would you great expert recommend?
Thanks in advance.

Microsoft Excel and Sql Server. Those are the most-used all-purpose tools to do what you want. You can adapt using VBScript if Excel if those requirements change.
Most data-mining applications are written to mine for specific stuff.

Thank you for reply.
SQl lacks stepwise computation ablility, so It is not a ideal solution. What I mean about stepwise is:
1. In excel, I can write number "10" in A1 cell, then formula "=A1*5" in A2 cell. then formula "=A2+2" in A3 cell. A1->A2->A3, It's stepwise.
2. When I change 10 to 9 in A1, then result in A2 and A3 will changed automatic.
3. an example: a. to select out the 10 categories of best sellers b. as a further computation on the basis of result from a., to select out the top 20 products from each category, c. as a further comparison with that of the last year based on the result from a.
let's call SQL_A,SQL_B,SQL_C as SQL statements for a,b,c. when I changed SQL_A (for example change 10 categories to 9 categories ), I must change SQL_B and SQL_C. why? because SQL_B and SQL_C is based on SQL_A. that is, SQL_B may like:
with SQL_A as A
selet.......
Excel has another problem, It is too simple to process mass data analysis. for example, to compute the product whose annual sales values are all among the top 100.
data structure( sales table's fields): productID, time, value .
the sql solution is:
WITH sales1 AS (
SELECT productID, YEAR(time) AS year, SUM(value) AS value1
FROM sales
GROUP BY productID, YEAR(time)
)
SELECT productID
FROM (
SELECT productID
FROM (
SELECT productID,RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY year ORDER BY value1 DESC) rankorder
FROM sales1 ) T1
WHERE rankorder<=100) T2
GROUP BY productID
HAVING COUNT(*)=(SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT year ) FROM sales1)
above code is hard to write in Excel.
So what I want is some like SQL + Excel, do you have some idea?

It is. I'd suggest writing it in Sql, as a stored procedure.

It's one of the most advanced spreadsheets that I know. Alternatively, you could check out DMTL[^].

you are so funny 
I mean SQL+Excel in one tools, not one of them or both of them.
I will check DMTL, It seems like what I want. but I'm not sure does DMTL have stepwise ablility like excel? It seems just a code library. I should take a deeper research.
BTW, does DMTL support computing data with multiple dataset, just as join statement in SQL. Under my impression, other data mining tools can only work on one dataset.
thank you in advance!

I was not joking.

You can use Sql Server to prepare the dataset (and yes, it can operate on the previous record), and Excel to visualize that data.
bestbird7788 wrote: I'm not sure does DMTL
Neither do I. Never needed anything beyond the two tools I already named.

hi,thank you for your suggestion.
this line:

------------------------------------
look at this scene:
1. I use sql to get some data, filled them in Excel, called it dataset1.
2. In Excel, I made some computation, then I got dataset2.
3. I need join the dataset2 with a table in database to generate dataset3.
how to do? creat a new table in database, fill dataset2 to database? and run join statment? then fill dataset3 to Excel? No, It's a big trouble.
so I need a tools like SQL+Excel.

Create a linked server to both Excell files, and do a SELECT with a UNION into your Sql Server.

That you adjust your mind set.
You seem to think that you have something that is easy yet solves anything. Which isn't possible.
The reason programming languages exist is because complex(=many steps) problems can only be solved using complex implementations.
So what you can do is one of the following
1. Find an existing application (like excel) and limit your problems to ones that work in that.
2. Use a programming language and solve anything.
3. Use a mix of 1 and 2 based on the needs of the problem.
Obviously there are disadvantages to all but that does cover the possibilities.

Thank you for your advice.
I know you are right, there is no easy way to solve my problem.
I think SQL is more easy than programming languages like VB and C++ on common mass data computation, so I imagined if there is a tool that is more easy than SQL on multiple steps computation of mass data. So I posted this post and wanted someone who knows more than me.
DMTL maybe a good choice, I will make a research on it.

If money is no issue, you can always get Qlikview[^].
|
|
|
|
|
thank you
I will check it.
And I have 3 quesiton about Qlikview ,and I will appreciate if you give me some tips.
1.can Qlikview solve the problem above:to compute the product whose annual sales values are all among the top 100.
MSSQL data structure( sales table's fields): productID, time, value
SQL solution is as below:
---------------------------------------------------------
WITH sales1 AS (
SELECT productID, YEAR(time) AS year, SUM(value) AS value1
FROM sales
GROUP BY productID, YEAR(time)
)
SELECT productID
FROM (
SELECT productID
FROM (
SELECT productID,RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY year ORDER BY value1 DESC) rankorder
FROM sales1 ) T1
WHERE rankorder<=100) T2
GROUP BY productID
HAVING COUNT(*)=(SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT year ) FROM sales1)
2.does Qlikview have stepwise ability. What I mean is like: step1. filter data. step2. group data on step1 . step3. filter data again on step2. the most important is: step4. sorting data on the result of step1 as a sub step. It's like what Excel does.
3.dees Qlikview support multiple datasets computation without SQL. what I mean is like: join statements in SQL .
thank you for your reply.

Hi this is Chandra. i have one issue with Sql Stored procedure.
Please find the query below.
declare @Measure varchar(50)
declare @Time varchar(50)
declare @Manufacturer varchar(50)
declare @CategoryID int
SET @Measure ='Value'
SET @Time ='4 Weeks&'
SET @Manufacturer ='Jti Gallaher Ltd'
SET @CategoryID = 377;
Declare @SELECTtQuery1 varchar(1000)
Declare @FromQuery1 varchar(1000)
Declare @GROUPBYQuery1 varchar(1000)
Declare @SQLQuery AS NVarchar(4000)
Declare @ParamDefinition AS NVarchar(2000)
SET @FromQuery1 = 'FROM [dbo].[iView_Data_TCG_Aggregated_Product]
WHERE PeriodName = '''+@Time+'''
AND Manufacturer = '''+@Manufacturer+''' AND CategoryId = '''+ @CategoryID+
print @FromQuery1
When i execute this query i am getting the conversion error. PLease find the error below.
----------------------
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value ' FROM [dbo].[iView_Data_TCG_Aggregated_Product]
WHERE PeriodName = '4 Weeks'
AND Manufacturer = 'Test1' AND CategoryId = '' to data type int.
----------------------------------------------
I am not getting categoryid value when i execute. It is giving error.
Please suggest me wht to do.
Thanks

A few things:
- Since you're concatenating things together, @CategoryID will have to be converted to a string. Otherwise, SQL Server is trying to perform addition and convert the first variables to an int.
Try changing the SET to this:
SET @FromQuery1 = 'FROM [dbo].[iView_Data_TCG_Aggregated_Product]
WHERE PeriodName = '''+@Time+'''
AND Manufacturer = '''+@Manufacturer+''' AND CategoryId = '''+ cast(@CategoryID as varchar(10))
- There was a dangling plus sign I removed from what you posted just to get it to execute
- If this is going to be a valid query, your'e missing the SELECT clause with the columns to select.
