I am using jupyter notebook to run some SQL queries. I have ordered my SQL table by ascending time and I want the first time (so the first entry). The SQL query I have is:
cur.execute("SELECT s_time FROM table_1 ORDER BY s_time ASC fetch FIRST 1 ROWS ONLY")
I get the result with the statement
start_time=cur.fetchall()
I need the result to be an int value but by doing this I get a list. The result is shown in the following picture: Result from the fetchall()
I only want the number so I am guessing it is necessary to take out the brackets, parenthesis and comma but I don't know how. How can I convert this?

I'm trying to query all resources that has empty records on a specific column but I'm unable to make it work. Here's the query that I'm using:
SELECT
service.description,
project.labels,
cost AS cost
FROM
`xxxxxx.xxxxx.xxxx.xxxx`
WHERE
service.description = 'BigQuery' ;
Here's the results:
As you can see, I'm getting everything with that query, but as mentioned, I'm looking to get resources with empty records only for example record 229,230 so on.
Worth to mention that schema for the column I'm trying to query is:
project.labels RECORD REPEATED
The above was mentioned because I tried using several combinations of WHERE but everything ends up in error.
To identify empty repeated record - you can use ARRAY_LENGTH in WHERE clause like in below example
WHERE ARRAY_LENGTH(project.labels) = 0
I am trying to select the maximum value of the last 6 digits in a list of strings
This is for creating an Inbox Query in Infor EAM
OBJ_CODE is the column and R5OBJECTS is the table. I have tried the following code but the number returned is 0.
SELECT MAX(RIGHT(OBJ_CODE,6)) FROM R5OBJECTS
My list looks like this
AAAA100000
AAAA100001
AAAA100002
AAAA100003
AAAA100004
AAAA100005
...
AAAA100999
...
BBBB100006
BBBB100007
BBBB100008
BBBB100009
BBBB100010
So the expected output would be 100999
It seems this table R5OBJECTS is too big, and your sql query performance didn't pass the base configuration parameter.
If using Inbox -> Set your INBXSCOR to 50 and try your query again.
If using KPI -> Set your KPISCOR to 50

Although this code works perfectly form me in SQL Server 2016, I add additional function to convert string to int to be sure:
SELECT MAX(CONVERT(INT,RIGHT(OBJ_CODE,6))) FROM R5OBJECTS
what am I doing wrong with my sql query? It always return an empty rows even if there is a value exist.
Here is my query:
SELECT *
FROM users
WHERE user_theme_id IN ( 9735, 9325, 4128 )
AND ( user_date_created BETWEEN '2013-06-04' AND '2013-06-10' );
I tried to cut my original query one by one, I got a result. Here is the first one:
SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_theme_id IN (9735, 9325, 4128 );
I got 3 rows for this result. See attached snapshot:
Now, the next query that I run is this:
SELECT *
FROM users
WHERE user_date_created BETWEEN '2013-06-04' AND '2013-06-10';
I do get 3 results on this. See attached snapshot:
By the way, this sql that uses BETWEEN should suppose return 4 rows but it only return 3. It doesn't return the data which has the created date of 2013-06-10 08:27:43
What am I doing wrong with my original query Why does it always return an empty rows?
If you are getting results by separately running different where clauses doesn't guarantee that AND 2 where clauses will return an answer.
There has to be intersection of rows to get result while AND.
You should validate your data and see if overlapping exists.
I have able to make it work by not using the SQL BETWEEN operators but instead COMPARISON OPERATORS like: >= || <=
I have read it from W3schools.com, the SQL between can produce different results in different databases.
This is the content:
Notice that the BETWEEN operator can produce different result in different databases!
In some databases, BETWEEN selects fields that are between and excluding the test values.
In other databases, BETWEEN selects fields that are between and including the test values.
And in other databases, BETWEEN selects fields between the test values, including the first test value and excluding the last test value.
Therefore: Check how your database treats the BETWEEN operator!
That is what happened in the issue that I am facing. The first field was being treated as part of the test values and the 2nd field was being excluded. Using the comparison operators give accurate result.
I am writing reports using Report Builder 3, and I need some help with an sql query to get unique values.
Using the following sample data:
I need to be able to get one single value for feeBudRec returned for each feeRef. The value of each feeBudRec is always the same for each individual feeRef (eg for every data row for feeRef LR01 will have a feeBudRec of 1177).
The reason why I need to get a single feeBudRec value for each feeRef is that I need to be able to total the feeBudRec value for each feeRef in a feePin (eg for feePin LEE, I need to total the feeBudRec values for LR01 and PS01, which should be 1177 + 1957 to get a total of 3134; but if I don't have unique values for feeBudRec, it will add the values for each row, which would bring back a total of 11756 for the 8 LEE rows).
My experience with writing SQL queries is very limited, but from searching the internet, it looks like I'll need to put in a subquery into my SQL query in order to get a single unique feeBudRec figure for each feeRef, and that a subquery that gets a minimum feeBudRec value for each feeRef should work for me.
Based on examples I've found, I think the following subquery should work:
SELECT a.feeRef, a.feeBudRec
FROM (
SELECT uvw_EarnerInfo.feeRef, Min(uvw_EarnerInfo.feeBudRec) as AvailableTime
FROM uvw_EarnerInfo
GROUP BY
uvw_EarnerInfo.feeRef
) as x INNER JOIN uvw_EarnerInfo as a ON a.feeRef = x.feeRef AND a.feeBudRec = x.AvailableTime;
The problem is that I have no idea how to insert that subquery into the query I'm using to produce the report (as follows):
SELECT
uvw_EarnerInfo.feeRef
,uvw_EarnerInfo.PersonName
,uvw_EarnerInfo.PersonSurname
,uvw_EarnerInfo.feePin
,uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeDate
,uvw_RB_TimeLedger.matRef
,uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeTypeCode
,uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeCharge
,uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeElapsed
,uvw_WoffTimeByTime.WoffMins
,uvw_WoffTimeByTime.WoffCharge
,uvw_EarnerInfo.feeBudRec
,uvw_EarnerInfo.personOccupation
FROM
uvw_RB_TimeLedger
LEFT OUTER JOIN uvw_WoffTimeByTime
ON uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeId = uvw_WoffTimeByTime.TimeId
RIGHT OUTER JOIN uvw_EarnerInfo
ON uvw_EarnerInfo.feeRef = uvw_RB_TimeLedger.feeRef
WHERE
uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeDate >= #TimeDate
AND uvw_RB_TimeLedger.TimeDate <= #TimeDate2
If that subquery will get the correct results, can anyone please help me with inserting it into my report query. Otherwise, can anyone let me know what I will need to do to get a unique feeBudRec value for each feeRef?
Depends on the exact schema, but assuming the uvw_EarnerInfo lists the Pin, Ref, and Rec without duplicates, try adding an extra column (after personOccupation) on the end of your query such as :
feeBudRecSum = (Select SUM(FeeBudRec) From uvw_EarnerInfo x
where x.feePin = uvw_EarnerInfo.feePin
Group By x.FeePin)
Note that you would not Sum these values in your report. This column should have the total you are looking for.
The key to Report Builder is to get your query correct from the offset and let the wizard then structure your report for you. It takes all the hard work out of structuring your report manually.
I haven't used Report Builder for a while now but in the query builder of the report displaying the graphical representation of your query you should be able to drag and drop columns in and out of the query set. Dragging a column upwards and out of the box (showing your columns) would have the effect of causing your report to break on this column.
If you restructure this way you will probably have to run the report generator again to regenerate the report and restructure it.
Once you are happy with the structure you can then begin to add the summary columns.
I have a totals query (one where I clicked the totals button, and it has "group by" columns) in Access 2007. Most of the columns are fine... group by columns, max columns, min columns, etc. For some of them though, I want to extract only the last non-blank (not "" or null) value of a string column.
Here's a sample of what my SQL looks like:
SELECT Min(Duplicates.AttendedODBefore) AS AttendedODBefore,
Min(Duplicates.ContactByPost) As ContactByPost,
Last(Duplicates.PlannedStart) As PlannedStart,
Min(Duplicates.AccessibilityRequirements) AS AccessibilityRequirements,
Last(Duplicates.UcasNumber) As UcasNumber
-- ^^^^
FROM DuplicateStudents As Duplicates
GROUP BY
Duplicates.ID
The expression highlighted is the one I want changing to the last non-blank field. Is there an Access-specific or plain SQL expression which will do this?
Edit: Turns out that Min() and Max() work on string values and ignores null values, taking the first and last values alphabetically. It's not perfect, because it doesn't guarantee that the value selected is the last one, but it's better than just a load of nulls which is what using Last() might give.
Access seems resistant to the idea of returning the last non-null value in a query using GROUP BY. Even if your FROM clause were modified to be something like
FROM (
SELECT allfieldsyouneed
FROM DuplicateStudents
ORDER BY PlannedStart
) AS SortedDuplicates
and the rest of your query were modified to use SortedDuplicates instead, Access doesn't seem to return the last value based on the order you specify. I tested on a table with exactly one blank row and specific orders that I could verify (both an auto-increment field and a value that I checked by using Min and Max), and Access chose to return some other value as Last.
Based on your comment it seems like your definition of "Last" is: the most recently added record, based on an auto-incrementing ID. As such, some form of the following should work (it uses a subquery to return the most recent non-null UcasNumber):
SELECT Min(Duplicates.AttendedODBefore) AS AttendedODBefore,
Min(Duplicates.ContactByPost) As ContactByPost,
Last(Duplicates.PlannedStart) As PlannedStart,
Min(Duplicates.AccessibilityRequirements) AS AccessibilityRequirements,
(SELECT TOP 1 D.UcasNumber FROM Duplicates AS D
WHERE D.UcasNumber Is Not Null
ORDER BY D.ID DESC) As UcasNumber
FROM DuplicateStudents As Duplicates
