Coalesce or Concatenate multiple rows into a string variable - sql-server-2016

I'm looking for a way in SQL Server 2016 to coalesce or concatenate rows into a comma or semi colon separated string while also counting the number of like phrases where date is greater than selected date.
Example Table shown below.
PPDate Column 1
2017/09/30 NULL
2017/10/14 1 Outside Hire; 2 Internal Reassignment
2017/10/28 NULL
2017/11/11 1 Part-Time
2017/11/25 1 Participant Returns; 1 Outside Hire
2017/12/09 NULL
2017/12/23 NULL
2018/01/06 2 Reassignment-External; 1 Temp Reassignment
2018/01/20 NULL
2018/02/03 1 Part-Time
2018/02/17 1 Outside Hire
How do I coalesce or concatenate column 1 where PPDate is greater than 2017/10/14 for example and also count occurrences of the semi colon delimited phrases?
Resulting string should be:
2 Part-Time; 1 Participant Returns; 2 Outside Hire; 2 Reassignment-External; 1 Temp Reassignment

SQL SUM counting every instance and not if data is present

I have a piece of a SQL statement below:
SELECT WOCUSTFIELD.WORKORDERID, WORKORDER.ACTUALFINISHDATE,
CASE WHEN wocustfield.custfieldname LIKE '%bags%'
THEN (REPLACE( wocustfield.custfieldname, 'bags:', ''))
ELSE REPLACE( wocustfield.custfieldname, 'boxes:', '')
END AS Facility,
For each of the custfieldname that has a number > than 0 put in for Bags or Boxes I would like to count it as a Facility (visit to teh site).
Currently, it is counting every custfieldname regardless if it has a number ( 0 or >) in the field as a visit and is totaling all custfieldnames for each day.
for example, if the data look like the following for Jan 1st 2023:
Bags Boxes
Dogstation 1 3 4
Dogstation 2 0 0
Dogstation 3 5 1
Dogstation 4 2 0
Dogstation 5 0 0
I would like to have 3 Facility (visits) stations and not 5. I hope this makes sense. thanks for any help given
The COUNT aggregation counts 1 for every non-null. Zero (0) is not null, so it will count as 1. You want to do something like this:
SUM(CASE WHEN bags >0 then 1 else 0 end) as stores_with_bags
Just add in a WHERE clause. I'm not exactly sure how your table is formatted, but ex:
WHERE Bags>0 OR Boxes>0

Aggregating / Concatenation of very long Varchar2 strings and find key words in the text || Oracle

I have been given a task to develop a script/ function/ query to aggregate groups of rows in a table and then search for specific keywords in it. The column to be aggregated is a varchar2 column with size 3200 and some of the aggregated rows have lengths way beyond 5000.
(I understand that the size of varchar2 is 4000)
When I try to aggregate the data into a single column, it gives a "result of string concatenation is too long" error (ORA-01489)
I have tried inbuilt aggregators like LISTAGG, XMLAGG, and also some custom functions but I have been asked to prefer a SQL query over a function or procedure.
Once I can get the data to be aggregated, I have to then search through the rows for matching keywords.
(can't just search the rows without aggregating as some of the words are split across the rows, eg row1 ends with "KEYW" and row2 starts with "ORD" if I need to look for "KEYWORD" in the table
my table kind of looks like this (can't post the real table data, sorry),
id_1 | id_2 | name | row_num | description
1 5 A 0 this has so
1 5 A 1 me keyword
1 5 B 0 this is
1 3 E 0 new some
2 12 A 0 diff str
here the unique rows are identified using the first 3 columns and the 4th column lists the order in which these "description" strings need to be concatenated.
I would like to get the output as:
id_1 | id_2 | name | description (concated)
1 5 A this is **some** keyword
1 3 E new **some**
when looking for the keyword "some"
Please help as I am fairly new to DBs and any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards

MS Access SQL - Find numbers with decimals no end to Zero (,00)

I am having a table and i would like to find all numbers where it doesn't end to ,00 but with decimal number like ,01 or ,23 or etc...
My Table Data Desire Output
id s id s c
1 32,00 1 32,00 NULL
2 13,13 2 13,13 13,13
3 55,05 3 55,05 55,05
4 76,00 4 76,00 NULL
I would like to create a sql query to create column c like
iif(s IS ZERO AFTER DECIMAL, NULL, s)
Is it possible in MS ACCESS SQL?
For positive numbers, you can use floor or int():
iif(s <> int(s), . . .

Return 0 in Sheets Query if there is no data

I need some advice in google query language.
I want to count rows depending on date and a condition. But if the condition is not met, it should return 0.
What I'm trying to achieve:
Date Starts
05.09.2018 0
06.09.2018 3
07.09.2018 0
What I get:
Date Starts
06.09.2018 3
The query looks like =Query(Test!$A2:P; "select P, count(B) where (B contains 'starts') group by P label count(B) 'Starts'")
P contains ascending datevalues and B an event (like start in this case).
How can I force output a 0 for the dates with no entry containing "start"?
The main point is to get all needed data in one table in ascending order. But this is only working, if every day has an entry. If there is no entry for a day, the results for "start" do not match the datevalue in column A. 3 in column D would be in the first row of the table then.
I need it like this:
A B C D
Date Logins Sessions Starts
05.09.2018 1 2 0
06.09.2018 3 4 3
07.09.2018 4 5 0
Maybe this is easy to fix, but I don't see it.
Thanks in advance!
You can do some pre-processing before the query. Ex: check if column B contains 'start' with regexmatch and use a double unary (--) to force the boolean values into 1's and 0's. The use query to sum.
=Query(Arrayformula({--regexmatch(Test!$B2:B; "start")\ Test!$A2:P}); "select Col17, sum(Col1) where Col17 is not null group by Col17 label sum(Col1) 'Starts'")
Change ranges to suit.

SQL Select where id is in `column`

I have a column that has multiple numbers separated by a comma. Example for a row:
`numbers`:
1,2,6,66,4,9
I want to make a query that will select the row only if the number 6 (for example) is in the column numbers.
I cant use LIKE because if there is 66 it'll work too.
You can use like. Concatenate the field separators at the beginning and end of the list and then use like. Here is the SQL Server sytnax:
where ','+numbers+',' like '%,'+'6'+',%'
SQL Server uses + for string concatenation. Other databases use || or the concat() function.
You should change your database to rather have a new table that joins numbers with the row of your current table. So if your row looks like this:
id numbers
1 1,2,6,66,4,9
You would have a new table that joins those values like so
row_id number
1 1
1 2
1 6
1 66
1 4
1 9
Then you can search for the number 6 in the number column and get the row_id
