I have this query (something like a case statement which I can use and fix it)
select *
from mytable
where 1=1
and (isNull(ID, 0) = 0 OR UtilityID IN (9,40))
I also want to add another statement
select *
from mytable
where 1=1
and UtilityID NOT IN (9,40)
Everything is happening in a procedure, so want to use a variable like declare #something so if that is passed as 1, use the first statement and the if 0 is passed, use the latter one.
While I appreciate the genius in Dale's answer I find this more readable:
IF #something = 0
BEGIN
select *
from mytable
where ID IS NULL OR ID = 0 OR UtilityID IN (9,40);
END
IF #something = 1
BEGIN
select *
from mytable
where UtilityID NOT IN (9,40);
END
It's procedure code, so use IF to direct the control flow. Also expanded and simplified your where clauses
I think I understand your logic, ignoring the 1=1 (which does nothing) you want to only allow id = 0 when #something = 1. This should do it:
declare #something bit = 0;
declare #mytable table (ID int, UtilityID int);
insert into #mytable (ID, UtilityID)
select 0, 1 union all
select 1, 2 union all
select 2, 9 union all
select 3, 40;
select *
from #mytable
where (
(#something = 1 and (isnull(ID, 0) = 0 or UtilityID in (9,40)))
or (#something = 0 and (UtilityID not in (9,40)))
);
A more performant approach for a larger query could be:
select *
from #mytable
where (#something = 1 and (isnull(ID, 0) = 0 or UtilityID in (9,40)))
union all
select *
from #mytable
where (#something = 0 and (UtilityID not in (9,40)));
PS: Hopefully your ID cannot ever by null - it should have a constraint on it.
I need to populate a new column in a table known as RowType, where if the ID column contains the same ID value as the one above RowType is populated with 'D', if the value is new then RowType is populate with 'H', how would the SQL code look to be able to do this?
I.e should look something like below:
RowType (to be populated), ID (already there)
H, 1
D, 1
D, 1
H, 2
D, 2
H, 3
D, 3
D, 3
Thanks
You can use Row_Number and case
select *, RowType = case when Row_Number() over (partition by id order by id) = 1 then 'H' else 'D' End from #yourid
Your input table:
create table #yourId (id int)
insert into #yourid (id) values
(1)
,(1)
,(1)
,(2)
,(2)
,(3)
,(3)
,(3)
Use ROW_NUMER concept :
CREATE TABLE #table(Id INT)
INSERT INTO #table(Id)
SELECT 1 UNION ALL
SELECT 1 UNION ALL
SELECT 1 UNION ALL
SELECT 2 UNION ALL
SELECT 2 UNION ALL
SELECT 3 UNION ALL
SELECT 3 UNION ALL
SELECT 3
SELECT CASE WHEN RowType = 1 THEN 'H' ELSE 'D' END RowType , Id
FROM
(
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY Id ORDER BY id) RowType , Id
FROM #table
) A
Please try...
UPDATE tableName
SET RowType = CASE
WHEN ( ID = LAG( ID ) OVER ( ORDER BY ID ) ) THEN 'D'
ELSE 'H'
END

It may not be the best solution, however it can point you somewhere, and it works.
Go through the code carfuly and make sure you understand this.
create table yourTable (RowType char, id int)
insert into yourTable (RowType, id) values
('',1)
,('',1)
,('',1)
,('',2)
,('',2)
,('',3)
,('',3)
,('',3)
select
row_number() over (order by id) as rowNumber,
RowType,
id
into #tempTable
from yourTable
declare #maxRow int = (select max(rowNumber) from #tempTable)
declare #currentRow int = 1
while (#currentRow <= #maxRow)
begin
if (#currentRow = 1)
begin
update #tempTable
set RowType = 'H'
where rowNumber = #currentRow
end
else
begin
if (select id from #tempTable where rowNumber = #currentRow) = (select id from #tempTable where rowNumber = #currentRow - 1)
begin
update #tempTable
set RowType = 'D'
where rowNumber = #currentRow
end
else
begin
update #tempTable
set RowType = 'H'
where rowNumber = #currentRow
end
end
set #currentRow = #currentRow +1
end
-- update data in actual table, you can do below if only those two columns exist in table !!!
delete from yourTable
-- insert into table from updated temp table
insert into yourTable
select RowType, ID
from #tempTable
select * from yourTable
select * from #tempTable
-- drop temp table
drop table #tempTable
I need to get the output of a selected query depending on certain conditions
Means if(id=uid)
then I need the below query
select * from table1 where id=5;
else
I need the below one
select * from table1 where id=10
I know i can use if condition for this. But my query is very long one so when I use if else then it would look like
if(#id=#uid)
begin
select * from table1 where id=5;// query 1
end
else
select * from table1 where id=10;//query 2
but here I need to replace the entire query once again for a single check. I hope I can do something like this:
declare #id int=4;
declare #uid=10;
select * from table1 where
case
when #id=#uid
then
id=5
else
id=10;
end
Updation
I need one more condition too
in this case id=5 and uid=10
then if(id=uid)
then
select * from table1 where id=5
and
if(id!=uid)
then
select * from table1
something like this
You can use the case expression to return the value id should be equal to:
SELECT *
FROM table1
WHERE id = CASE WHEN #id = #uid THEN 5 ELSE 10 END;
EDIT:
The updated requirement in the question is to return all rows when #id != #uid. This can be done by comparing id to id:
SELECT *
FROM table1
WHERE id = CASE WHEN #id = #uid THEN 5 ELSE id END;
Alternatively, with this updated requirement, a simple or expression might be simpler to use:
SELECT *
FROM table1
WHERE #id = #uid OR id = 5;
SELECT * FROM table1
WHERE (id=5 AND #id=#uid) OR (id=10 AND #id<>#uid)
SELECT
*
FROM
table1
WHERE
(
#id = #uid
AND
id =5
)
OR
(
not #id = #uid
AND
id=10
)
I'm trying to solve the following problem:
I would like to make a select, when the result is empty it should be replaced with 'empty'
Else the result should be there.
That is my try:
select case (count*)
when 0 then 'empty'
ELSE
THEVALUEOFTHECOLUM
END AS RESULT
from Database.table where CarID = 12;
Thanks for every comment.
This should work, but you might have to convert the second occurrence of COUNT(*) to VARCHAR depending on the database used:
SELECT
CASE WHEN COUNT(*) = 0
THEN 'empty'
ELSE COUNT(*) -- CONVERT, TO_CHAR, ...
END AS result
FROM Database.table where CarID = 12;
SELECT
CASE
WHEN Q.countvalue = 0 THEN 'Empty'
ELSE CONVERT(NVARCHAR(10), Q.countvalue)
END AS RESULT
FROM
(
SELECT COUNT(*) AS countvalue
FROM Database.table WHERE CarID = 12
) AS Q
This feels hacky to me, but it will return the column data.
It is not one query, but it's still setwise.
declare #tmp table (id int)
declare #cnt int
insert into #tmp select col from table
select #cnt = count(*) from #tmp
if(#cnt = 0)
begin
select 'empty'
end
else
begin
select * from #tmp
end
Is it possible to code it with one query?
If there are no results -> no result found
else
Show all results, not only one
declare #tmp table (id int)
declare #cnt int
insert into #tmp select col from table
select #cnt = count(*) from #tmp
if(#cnt = 0)
begin
select 'empty'
end
else
begin
select * from #tmp
end
I tried searching around, but I couldn't find anything that would help me out.
I'm trying to do this in SQL:
declare #locationType varchar(50);
declare #locationID int;
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
CASE #locationType
WHEN 'location' THEN account_location = #locationID
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area = #locationID
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division = #locationID
I know that I shouldn't have to put '= #locationID' at the end of each one, but I can't get the syntax even close to being correct. SQL keeps complaining about my '=' on the first WHEN line...
How can I do this?
declare #locationType varchar(50);
declare #locationID int;
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
#locationID =
CASE #locationType
WHEN 'location' THEN account_location
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division
END
without a case statement...
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
(#locationType = 'location' AND account_location = #locationID)
OR
(#locationType = 'area' AND xxx_location_area = #locationID)
OR
(#locationType = 'division' AND xxx_location_division = #locationID)
Here you go.
SELECT
column1,
column2
FROM
viewWhatever
WHERE
CASE
WHEN #locationType = 'location' AND account_location = #locationID THEN 1
WHEN #locationType = 'area' AND xxx_location_area = #locationID THEN 1
WHEN #locationType = 'division' AND xxx_location_division = #locationID THEN 1
ELSE 0
END = 1
I'd say this is an indicator of a flawed table structure. Perhaps the different location types should be separated in different tables, enabling you to do much richer querying and also avoid having superfluous columns around.
If you're unable to change the structure, something like the below might work:
SELECT
*
FROM
Test
WHERE
Account_Location = (
CASE LocationType
WHEN 'location' THEN #locationID
ELSE Account_Location
END
)
AND
Account_Location_Area = (
CASE LocationType
WHEN 'area' THEN #locationID
ELSE Account_Location_Area
END
)
And so forth... We can't change the structure of the query on the fly, but we can override it by making the predicates equal themselves out.
EDIT: The above suggestions are of course much better, just ignore mine.
The problem with this is that when the SQL engine goes to evaluate the expression, it checks the FROM portion to pull the proper tables, and then the WHERE portion to provide some base criteria, so it cannot properly evaluate a dynamic condition on which column to check against.
You can use a WHERE clause when you're checking the WHERE criteria in the predicate, such as
WHERE account_location = CASE #locationType
WHEN 'business' THEN 45
WHEN 'area' THEN 52
END
so in your particular case, you're going to need put the query into a stored procedure or create three separate queries.
OR operator can be alternative of case when in where condition
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[RPT_340bClinicDrugInventorySummary]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
#ClinicId BIGINT = 0,
#selecttype int,
#selectedValue varchar (50)

LEFT JOIN clinic ON drugstock_drugname.clinicid_FK = clinic.clinicid_PK
WHERE (#ClinicId = 0 AND 1 = 1)
OR (#ClinicId != 0 AND drugstock_drugname.clinicid_FK = #ClinicId)
-- Alternative Case When You can use OR
AND ((#selecttype = 1 AND 1 = 1)
OR (#selecttype = 2 AND drugname.drugnameid_PK = #selectedValue)
OR (#selecttype = 3 AND drugndc.drugid_PK = #selectedValue)
OR (#selecttype = 4 AND drugname.cdrugclass = 'C2')
OR (#selecttype = 5 AND LEFT(drugname.cdrugclass, 1) = 'C'))
ORDER BY clinic.cclinicname, drugname.cdrugname
END

Answer To above post:
select #msgID, account_id
from viewMailAccountsHeirachy
where
CASE #smartLocationType
WHEN 'store' THEN account_location
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division
WHEN 'company' THEN xxx_location_company
END = #smartLocation
Try this:
WHERE (
#smartLocationType IS NULL
OR account_location = (
CASE
WHEN #smartLocationType IS NOT NULL
THEN #smartLocationType
ELSE account_location
END
)
)

In general you can manage case of different where conditions in this way
SELECT *
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE 1=(CASE <case column or variable>
WHEN '<value1>' THEN IIF(<where condition 1>,1,0)
WHEN '<value2>' THEN IIF(<where condition 2>,1,0)
ELSE IIF(<else condition>,1,0)
END)
Case Statement in SQL Server Example
Syntax
CASE [ expression ]
WHEN condition_1 THEN result_1
WHEN condition_2 THEN result_2
...
WHEN condition_n THEN result_n
ELSE result
END
Example
SELECT contact_id,
CASE website_id
WHEN 1 THEN 'TechOnTheNet.com'
WHEN 2 THEN 'CheckYourMath.com'
ELSE 'BigActivities.com'
END
FROM contacts;
OR
SELECT contact_id,
CASE
WHEN website_id = 1 THEN 'TechOnTheNet.com'
WHEN website_id = 2 THEN 'CheckYourMath.com'
ELSE 'BigActivities.com'
END
FROM contacts;
This worked for me.
