guidelines...guidelines...hmmm. let me think.
How about only allowing the same number of occupants as the number of sleeping places in the room. Stops those pesky kids allowing their friends to kip on the floor.
Or, how about prompting the user to offer the breakfast package when someone books a room.
No, wait - those aremore suggestions for functionality than guidelines.
Wait, ive got it. Don't use VB, its a horrible blemish on the arse of programming languages. No, still not guidelines, more personal opinion.
What sort of guidelines do you want?

I think it's more of a hate-hate relationship.

It was a bad joke. There is of course very little difference between the two.

Maybe the ones on top of the forum would be good to begin with.

Hello,
i am at the beginning of learning SQL, and i cannot find the solution to my problem:
I have got two tables, WORKCENTER and CALENDAR. WORKCENTER contains columns ID and NR_OF_DAYS, CALENDAR Contains columns DAY and IS_WORKING_DAY.
DAY contains the numeric value of a day (for example 14824 for today, 2010-08-03), and IS_WORKING_DAY is CHAR Type and indicates with 'y/n' if it is a working day or not.
I want for each Work Center to get the day from today + NR_OF_DAYS from table CALENDAR, excluding weekends and holidays.
The result should be like this:
ID MAX_CALENDAR_DAY
1 14833
2 14840
...
Explanation:
Work Center 1 has NR_OF_DAYS = 7, today is 14824, + 7 = 14831, but there is a weekend in between, so + 2 = 14833.
Work Center 2 has NR_OF_DAYS = 12, today is 14824, + 12 = 14836, but there are two weekends in between, so + 4 = 14840.
This is my sql query (Oracle):
SELECT WORKCENTER.ID AS WORKCENTER_ID, MAX_CALENDAR_DAY
FROM WORKCENTER,
(SELECT MAX(DAY) AS MAX_CALENDAR_DAY
FROM (SELECT DAY
FROM CALENDAR
WHERE DAY > TRUNC(TO_NUMBER(SYSDATE - TO_DATE('01.01.1970', 'DD.MM.YYYY')))
WHERE CALENDAR.IS_WORKING_DAY= 'y'
ORDER BY CALENDAR.DAY
)
WHERE ROWNUM <= WORKCENTER.NR_OF_DAYS
)
WHERE WORKCENTER.ID IN ( 1, 2, 6, 7, 9)
Oracle SQL Developer shows an error, WORKCENTER.NR_OF_DAYS is unknown. This is obvious, if inner queries are handled first (is this correct?).
Could you tell me how i have to build this query?
I hope you see what i am trying to do...
Greetings

In your first sub-select, you have MAX(DAY) as MAX_CALENDAR_DAY and you get that data from a further sub-select. Fine and good.
However, on your where clause, you reference, WORKCENTER.NR_OF_DAYS.
The WORKCENTER table was never referenced.

Start with a query telling you CALENDAR.DAY for every NR_OF_DAYS and limit that to the maximum number found in the WORKCENTER table, maybe
SELECT ROWNUM as NR_OF_DAYS, DAY AS MAX_CALENDAR_DAY
FROM (SELECT DAY
FROM CALENDAR
WHERE DAY > TRUNC(TO_NUMBER(SYSDATE - TO_DATE('01.01.1970', 'DD.MM.YYYY')))
AND CALENDAR.IS_WORKING_DAY= 'y'
ORDER BY CALENDAR.DAY
)
WHERE ROWNUM <= (SELECT MAX(NR_OF_DAYS) FROM WORKCENTER WHERE WORKCENTER.ID IN ( 1, 2, 6, 7, 9))
and then INNER JOIN that to the WORKCENTER table ON NR_OF_DAYS.
|
|
|
|
|
This is my query now:
SELECT ID,
DAY
FROM (SELECT ROWNUM as CAL_ROWNUM,
DAY AS MAX_CALENDAR_DAY
FROM (SELECT DAY
FROM CALENDAR
WHERE DAY > TRUNC(TO_NUMBER(SYSDATE - TO_DATE('01.01.1970', 'DD.MM.YYYY')))
AND CALENDAR.IS_WORKING_DAY= 'y'
ORDER BY CALENDAR.DAY)
WHERE ROWNUM <= (SELECT MAX(NR_OF_DAYS)
FROM WORKCENTER
WHERE ID IN (1, 2, 6, 7, 9))
)
INNER JOIN WORKCENTER
ON NR_OF_DAYS = CAL_ROWNUM
WHERE ID IN (1, 2, 6, 7, 9)
And it works, yeah! Thanks guys.
Greetings

Hi all,
I'm running SQL CE on Wince 5.0, and am finding that about every 40 seconds or so that the whole system freezes then carries on. This happens at precisely the time when the timestamp on the .SDF file changes, so I am assuming that it is freezing when SQL is updating the database file. Is there any way to prevent this or specify when it happens as it's interfering with other operations on the board?
TIA!
Edit - Fixed: on-board Flash is far, far too slow.

I have a table with 5000 rows
I want to get the first 1000 rows in a single select query
and the next 1001 to 5000 rows in another select query.
A help from somebody will be deeply appreciated.

Which database server and version?
|

The first one is easy enough.
SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM MYTABLE
The other one could probably be done like this assuming you have a Primary Key MYTABLEID (or some other unique key):
SELECT *
FROM MYTABLE
WHERE MYTABLEID IN (SELECT TOP 5000 MYTABLEID FROM MYTABLE)
AND MYTABLEID NOT IN (SELECT TOP 1000 MYTABLEID FROM MYTABLE)

Thank you for the valuable information. Yes it worked

Although this is how it used to be done pre 2005, in SQL Server 2005 there was the ROW_NUMBER function which enabled much more efficient paging queries to be written.
|
|
|
|
|
Quite similar to Oracle then, which still lacks the TOP function.

I Have two Tables like Code and Details...
In Code(SrNo,Name) Table Records Like A,B,C etc
In Details(SrNo,CodeName)Table looks like
SrNo A B C
1 0 1 0
2 0 0 0
3 1 0 0
4 0 0 0
5 0 0 1
6 1 1 1
7 0 0 0
If I add another Name in Code Table Like 'D'. Select query for Details table also contain column 'D'.
So Select query like this
DECLARE @Code NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @Code = (SELECT ('CONVERT(VARCHAR,'+Name+ ')'''+Name+''',') FROM Code ORDER BY SrNo FOR XML PATH(''))
SET @Code = SUBSTRING(@Code,0,LEN(@Code))
DECLARE @SQL VARCHAR(MAX)
SET @SQL = 'SELECT '+@Code+' FROM Details'
EXEC (@SQL)
Output:I need to check any '1' in columns and srno in order by without mentioning column names. It has to be like below. How can I do in SqlServer2005
SrNo A B C
6 1 1 1
1 0 1 0
3 1 0 0
5 0 0 1
2 0 0 0
4 0 0 0
7 0 0 0

You can refer to columns by ordinal as select foo from bar order by 1, 2.
