Can someone please help me with a SQL query? My apologies if a similar question has been asked before.
Finding it difficult from other examples I have seen.
I have 2 tables and would like to create a third table.
Table - advisories
advID | productName
1 | 3.4/3.5/3.6
2 | 3.4
3 | 3.5/3.6
Table - customerA
hostname | version
A | 3.3
B | 3.5
C | 3.6
Final Table
hostname | advID
A | NULL
B | 1
B | 3
C | 1
C | 3
Does this look correct?
select advId, productNames, hostname, version
from advisories, customerA
where productNames
like '%3.6%';
Thanks for the help.
I would suggest using the LIKE in the JOIN as follows:
SELECT C.HOSTNAME,
A.advisoryId
FROM customerA C LEFT JOIN advisories A
ON CONCAT('/',A.productNames,'/') LIKE concat('%/',C.version,'/%')
order by C.HOSTNAME
See SQL Fiddle. I have changed the || to CONCAT function.

I got this one assignment which has a lot of weird stuff to do. I need to create an API for storing transaction details and do some operations. One such operation involves retrieving a sum of all transactions that are transitively linked by their parent_id to $transaction_id.
If A is the parent of B and C, and C is the parent of D and E, then
sum(A) = A + B + C + D + E
note: not just immediate child transactions.
I have this sample data in the SQL database as given below.
MariaDB [test_db]> SELECT * FROM transactions;
+------+-------+----------+---------+
| t_id | t_pid | t_amount | t_type |
+------+-------+----------+---------+
| 1 | NULL | 10000.00 | default |
| 2 | NULL | 25000.00 | cars |
| 3 | 1 | 30000.00 | bikes |
| 4 | NULL | 10000.00 | bikes |
| 5 | 3 | 15000.00 | bikes |
+------+-------+----------+---------+
5 rows in set (0.000 sec)
MariaDB [test_db]>
where t_id is a unique transaction_id and t_pid is a parent_id which is either null or an existing t_id.
so, when I say sum(t_amount) where t_id=1, I want the result to be
sum(1+3+5) -> sum(10000 + 30000 + 15000) = 55000.
I know I can achieve this in a programmatic way with some recursion which will do repeated query operations and add the sum. But, that will give me poor performance if the data is very large say, millions of records.
I want to know if there is any possibility of achieving this with a complex query. And if yes, then how to do it?
I have very little knowledge and experience with databases. I tried with what I know and I couldn't do it. I tried searching for any similar queries available here and I didn't find any.
With what I have researched, I guess I can achieve this with stored procedures and using the HAVING clause. Let me know if I am right there and help me do this.
So, any sort of help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
You need a recursive CTE:
with recursive cte as (
select t_id as ultimate_id, t_id, t_amount
from tranctions t
where t_id = 1
union all
select cte.ultimate_id, t.t_id, t.amount
from cte join
transactions tc
on tc.p_id = cte.t_id
)
select ultimate_id, sum(t_amount)
from cte
group by ultimate_id;
I'm trying to create a query in SQL Server to determine how many times a person's name shows up in a list, but also that list will be unknown, so I would have to get the actual name from the previous select index... It's hard to explain so I'll show the query first and hopefully someone can help.
SELECT
SpeakerName, Spoken,
(SELECT COUNT(SpeakerName)
FROM tbl_SpeakerCard_Log
WHERE SpeakerName = 'SpeakerName[i]' AND SpeakDate = '3-9-16') as TimesSpoken
FROM
tbl_SpeakerCard_Log
WHERE
AID = ####
ORDER BY
GeneralComment ASC
So basically, in SpeakerName[i], I'd like to somehow get the SpeakerName from the outer Select. The output should come out something like this
+-------------+--------+-------------+
| SpeakerName | Spoken | TimesSpoken |
+-------------+--------+-------------+
| Holly | 0 | 4 |
| Robert | 1 | 5 |
| Mike | 1 | 2 |
+-------------+--------+-------------+
Try this:
select x.SpeakerName, x.Spoken, COUNT(*) as TimesSpoken
from tbl_SpeakerCard_Log x
WHERE AID = ####
and x.SpeakDate = '3-9-16'
group by x.SpeakerName, x.Spoken
Don't have SSMS installed on this computer so can't test it.
I have some problems regarding a pivot query. I am new to this. So look for something in the internet so I found dozens of them. So I decided to follow this Link. Been practice but seems like I ran into some obvious error.
My code is:
select
risk, [Quick] AS Quick, [Brown] AS Brown, [Fox] AS Fox
from
(select risk, site
from tst) as ps
PIVOT
(
count(risk)
for site in ([Brown], [Brown], [Fox])
) AS pvt
But it is throwing an error:
Invalid column name 'risk'.
Basically I want to have an output like this:
|Foo | Quick | Brown | Fox |
| 1 | 10 | 3 | 2 |
| 2 | 5 | 4 | 4 |
| 3 | 4 | 1 | 5 |
| 4 | 2 | 3 | 7 |
| 5 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Something like that. Just counting how many there is in a specific number. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
The problem with your existing query is you are using the column risk in your final select list as well as inside of the aggregate function. Once you've counted the risk values for each site this is not available to display.
To get around this you can add a second version of the risk column to your subquery similar to the following. You then count this other column of risk and display one in the final select:
select risk, [ADAB] AS ADAB, [Bahrain] AS Bahrain, [Thumrait] AS Thumrait
from
(
select risk, piv_risk = risk, site
from qcqcif
) as ps
PIVOT
(
count(piv_risk)
for site in ([ADAB], [Bahrain], [Thumrait])
) AS pvt;
See SQL Fiddle with Demo
I have a question concerning MS Access queries involving these tables:
tblMIDProcessMain ={ Process_ID,Process_Title,...}
tblMIDProcessVersion = { ProcessVersion_ID, ProcessVersion_FK_Process, ProcessVersion_VersionNo, ProcessVersion_FK_Status, ...}
tblMIDProcessVersionStatus = { ProcessVersionStatus_ID,ProcessVersionStatus_Value }
The tables store different versions of a process description. The "ProcessVersion_VersionNo" field contains an integer providing the version number. Now I would like to get for each process the highest version number thus the current version. If I do the following it kind of works:
SELECT tblMIDProcessMain.Process_Titel
, Max(tblMIDProcessVersion.ProcessVersion_VersionNo) AS CurrentVersion
FROM tblMIDProcessMain
INNER JOIN tblMIDProcessVersion
ON tblMIDProcessMain.Process_ID = tblMIDProcessVersion.ProcessVersion_FK_Process
GROUP BY tblMIDProcessMain.Process_Titel;
The query returns a recordset with each existing process_title and the respective max number of the version field. But as soon as I add other fields like "ProcessVersion_FK_Status" in the Select statement the query stops working.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Edit:
To clarify things a little I added a simplified example
Parent-Table:
Process_ID | Process_Title
----------------------------------
1 | "MyProcess"
2 | "YourProcess"
Child-Table:
Version_ID | Version_FK_ProcessID | Version_No | Version_Status
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | 1 | 1 | "New"
2 | 2 | 1 | "Discarded"
3 | 2 | 2 | "Reviewed"
4 | 2 | 3 | "Released"
Intended Result:
Title | Max_Version_No | Status
--------------------------------------------------------
MyProcess | 1 | "New"
YourProcess | 3 | "Released"
Given the example tables you updated your post with, this should work:
select process_title as Title
, max_version.max_version_no
, c.version_status as status
from (parenttable p
inner join (select max(version_id) as max_version_no, version_fk_process_id from childtable group by version_fk_process_id) max_version
on p.process_id = max_version.version_fk_process_id)
inner join childtable c
on max_version.max_version_no = c.version_id and max_version.version_fk_process_id = c.version_fk_process_id
I assume you are adding the new field to the 'Group By" clause? If not, then you either must include in the 'Group By', or you must use one of the operators like "Max" or "First" etc.
please read carefully because my english is not good, and the question has not an easy answer!
I have a simple structure like this:
table nodes
------------------------
nodeId | name
1 | Mazda Miata 2.0
2 | Red Cars
3 | Mazda Cars
4 | Sport cars
table associations
------------------------
nodeId | hasNodeId
1 | 2
1 | 3
1 | 4
3 | 4
3 | 1
and I want to select any row of the first table joining (in the same row) all the associated rows, according to what is specified by the table "associations"
the problem is that joining one node with one single node gives me the fulltext relevance of a SINGLE associated node: what I want is the relevance of ALL associated NODES
thank you
edit, the join result should be as you imagine like this, using the fulltext search:
nodeId | name | joinedName | fulltextRelev
1 | Mazda Miata 2.0 | Red Cars | 4.2
1 | Mazda Miata 2.0 | Mazda Cars | 2.3
1 | Mazda Miata 2.0 | Sport Cars | 3.2
the previous one is an abstract table, what i really want is to get unique/distinct nodeId, with the sum of the fulltextRelevance of the previous table... like this:
nodeId | name | fulltextRelevSUM
1 | Mazda Miata 2.0 | 9.7
9.7 = 4.2 + 2.3 + 3.2
You just have to group by your nodeId like this:
SELECT
nodeId, name, SUM(fulltextRelevSUM) AS fulltextRelevSum
FROM
/*your already done work here*/
GROUP BY nodeId
SELECT
n.nodeID,
n.name,
n2.name as joinedName,
MATCH(n.name) AGAINST(n2.name) AS fulltextRelev
FROM NODES n
LEFT OUTER JOIN ASSOCIATIONS a
ON n.nodeID = a.nodeID
LEFT OUTER JOIN nodes n2
ON n2.NODE_ID = a.hasNodeID
WHERE n.nodeID = 1
I dont fully understand your text relevance part. can you explain it further? The above query will get you the desired first 4 rows, the query on the second part should be easy
