A quick thought (not tested)
Select Distinct c.id, c2.id
FROM Client c, Client c2
Where c.doc = c2.doc
And c.id < c2.id --less than instead of not equal

Can anyone tell me that how can I store images in database. I am using SQL 2005 and I want to store image in that. I know there is a image datatype but it is not working. Please remember I want to store the image not it's path.

i use identity_insert for a column in one of my tables. when I first insert 5 rows, this column will show number from 1 to 5 (identity set as 1,1), but when I delete this 5 rows and re-insert this 5 rows, the number get incremented (6-10), how can I reset it and make it still start from 1 ??? can I run any simple query to do that?? thanks.

The intent of an identity column is that it uniquely defines a row in a table, FOREVER ! You can always create another row in that table with the exact other values, but it will never be known by an identity value previously assigned.
It may be possible to re-assign the identity sequence generator, but don't do it. Have you considered what would happen if another table was referencing your master table with this identity column ?
|
|
|
|
|
For example DBCC CHECKIDENT (Transact-SQL)
[^].
However, identity is used to generate surrogate key values so the number generated should always be irrelevant. The database does not quarantee anything but uniqueness.
The need to optimize rises from a bad design.

In case you did not get it - DO NOT CHANGE THE IDENTITY VALUES - this is a basic tennant of relational databases.

again, I tried to run the following query
INSERT INTO table1 (SID, Time) VALUES (1, SYSDATE)
but got the error message as below:
Msg 128, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
The name "SYSDATE" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted.
Can anyone tell me what the problem is? Thanks....

SYSDATE is an Oracle function. Use GETDATE().

kindly help..thanx a lot..

From memory, the dropdown list has a sort property? Or maybe use ORDER BY in your select?

You can do it from SQl with
select ColumnName from my_table
Order by ColumnName Asc
Or you can do what is suggested by the other guy here.
Hope this helps

Hi friends...
The requirement goes like this...
we already have 20 reports, like 1.rdl ,2.rdl.......20.rdl.
All reports takes a single parameter: @AssessmentId=Parameters!AssessmentId.Value
At present when client wants to view reports they have to click 20 different links for each report and then submit the assessmentid value as the parameter.
Now what they want is submit the parameter value in a single report and able to view all the reports one below another.
so how to go about this using sub reports
i am using sql server reporting services 2000. i have one shared datasource for all reports and different datasets.
thanx and regards

Pull each sub report into the designer and set the parameters passed to each?
And nice naming convention...

Hi Paddy
As per you ,i have dragged a report(2.rdl) from the solution explorer into the designer of 1.rdl.It generated the sub report in the designer.
On right clicking sub report and selecting proerties ,I set the parameter as @AssessmentId=Parameters!AssessmentId.Value. which is same in report 2.rdl
now i m getting this error :
A parameter in the subreport ‘subreport1’ has the name ‘@AssessmentId’. Parameter names must be CLS-compliant identifiers.
how to resolve this error.
The other way i m thinking is copy and paste all tables in a single report and generate the report but i consider this as inefficient because must be better ways than doing this.
plz share ur thought on this.

You if statement needs to be a case statement, much like the first line - can't have if statements inline like this. You might also want to revisit your design - this doesn't seem like the most logical structure.

how to restrict a value in a column like int 1000 to 2000 should only get inserted in the table otherwise that entry should not insert in the database.
|
|
|
|
|
A trigger might be your best bet here.

Contraints are the easiest way:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[bob1](
[cola] [int] NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[bob1] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [CK_bob1] CHECK (([cola] > 999 and [cola] < 2001))
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[bob1] CHECK CONSTRAINT [CK_bob1]
This will only allow values between 1000 and 2000, otherwise you get an error
