I need to sort two queries differently and return the paged result.
Example:
select Q1.* from
(select t.data1,t.data2 from table t order by t.data1 desc) as Q1
union all
select Q2.* from
(select t.data1,t.data2 from table t order by t.data2 asc) as Q2
ORDER BY data1 asc OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY;

I have a Oracle table with the following columns
Table Structure
In a query I need to return all the records with CPER>=40 which is trivial. However, apart from CPER>=40 I need to list 5 random records for each CPID.
I have attached a sample list of records. However, in my table I have around 50,000 records.
Appreciate if you can help.
Oracle solution:
with CTE as
(
select t1.*,
row_number() over(order by DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE) as rn -- random order assigned
from MyTable t1
where CPID <40
)
select *
from CTE
where rn <=5 -- pick 5 at random
union all
select t2.*, null
from my_table t2
where CPID >= 40
SQL Server:
with CTE as
(
select t1.*,
row_number() over(order by newid()) as rn -- random order assigned
from MyTable t1
where CPID <40
)
select *
from CTE
where rn <=5 -- pick 5 at random
union all
select t2.*, null
from my_table t2
where CPID >= 40
How about something like this...
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT CID,
CVAL,
CPID,
CPER,
Row_number() OVER (partition BY CPID ORDER BY CPID ASC ) AS RN
FROM Table) tmp
WHERE CPER>=40 OR pids <= 5
However, this is not random.
Assuming that you want five additional random records, you can do:
select t.*
from (select t.*,
row_number() over (partition by cpid,
(case when cper >= 40 then 1 else 2 end)
order by dbms_random.value
) as seqnum
from t
) t
where seqnum <= 5 or cper >= 40;
The row_number() is enumerating the rows for each cpid in two groups -- based on the cper value. The outer where is taking all cper values in the range you want as well as five from the other group.
I want to write a query which will fetch me the first and last 3 records from the table
Below is the table details
select * from employee_src
Now to get the above result i am using the below query
select fname,lname,ssn,salary,dno from employee_src where rownum <=3
union all
select fname,lname,ssn,salary,dno from (select fname,lname,ssn,salary,dno from employee_src order by rownum desc) where rownum <=3
On running this query I am getting the below result
Even though I am getting the first 3 and last 3 rows but the last 3 rows are not in the order as in the original table. How to get this fixed.
Try this.
select * from (select * from employee_src order by rownum Asc) where rownum <= 3
union all
select *, from ( select * from employee_src from dual order by rownum desc
) as employee_src_last3
where rownum <= 3
Try now...
I need to have one query for to select all records of KitchenBlinkSound='Y' plus top 1 of KitchenBlinkSound='N', here is my table structure.
And my requested result will be OrderNo 225,226,227. Basically it contains all KitchenBlinkSound='Y' records plus top 1 of KitchenBlinkSound='N' record.
SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE KitchenBlinkSound='Y'
UNION ALL
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM TABLE WHERE KitchenBlinkSound='N'
ORDER BY ORDERNO
UPDATE
SELECT TOP 3 * FROM
(
SELECT * FROM #TABLE1 WHERE KitchenBlinkSound='Y'
UNION ALL
SELECT ORDERNO,KITCHENSTATUS,KitchenBlinkSound FROM
(
SELECT *,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY KitchenBlinkSound ORDER BY ORDERNO ASC) RNO
FROM #TABLE1 WHERE KitchenBlinkSound='N'
)TAB
WHERE TAB.RNO=1
)MAIN
As sub-queries doesn't allow ORDER BY, ROW_NUMBER() is added in order to make sure that you are selecting the TOP 1 ORDERNO in ascending order. If you want to take in descending order change ASC to DESC.
Select * from [your table name] where KitchenBlickSound = 'Y'
UNION
Select TOP 1 * from [your table name] where KitchenBlickSound = 'N'
How can I get the n-th row of a TSQL query results?
Let's say, I want to get the 2nd row of this SELECT:
SELECT * FROM table
ORDER BY 2 ASC
What version of SQL Server are you targeting? If 2005 or greater, you can use ROW_NUMBER to generate a row number and select using that number. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186734.aspx
WITH orderedtable AS
(
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY <your order here>) AS 'RowNumber'
FROM table
)
SELECT *
FROM orderedtable
WHERE RowNumber = 2;
You can use a trick combining TOP with ORDER BY ASC/DESC to achieve an effect similar to MySQL's LIMIT:
SELECT TOP 2 * INTO #temptable FROM table
ORDER BY 2 ASC
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM #temptable
ORDER BY 2 DESC
or without temptable, but nested statements:
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM
(
SELECT TOP 2 * FROM table
ORDER BY 2 ASC
) sub
ORDER BY 2 DESC
The first time you select all rows up to the one you want to actually have, and in the second query you select only the first of the remaining when ordering them reversely, which is exactly the one you want.

One way;
;with T(rownumber, col1, colN) as (
select
row_number() over (order by ACOLUMN) as rownumber,
col1,
colN
from
atable
)
select * from T where rownumber = 2
I'm using SQL Server 2005 and I'm trying to achieve something like this:
I want to get the first x rows and the last x rows in the same select statement.
SELECT TOP(5) BOTTOM(5)
Of course BOTTOM does not exist, so I need another solution. I believe there is an easy and elegant solution that I'm not getting. Doing the select again with GROUP BY DESC is not an option.
Using a union is the only thing I can think of to accomplish this
select * from (select top(5) * from logins order by USERNAME ASC) a
union
select * from (select top(5) * from logins order by USERNAME DESC) b

SQL SERVER – How to Retrieve TOP and BOTTOM Rows Together using T-SQL
Did you try to using rownumber?
SELECT *
FROM
(SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (Order BY columnName) as TopFive
,ROW_NUMBER() OVER (Order BY columnName Desc) as BottomFive
FROM Table
)
WHERE TopFive <=5 or BottomFive <=5
http://www.sqlservercurry.com/2009/02/select-top-n-and-bottom-n-rows-using.html
I think you've two main options:
SELECT TOP 5 ...
FROM ...
ORDER BY ... ASC
UNION
SELECT TOP 5 ...
FROM ...
ORDER BY ... DESC
Or, if you know how many items there are in the table:
SELECT ...
FROM (
SELECT ..., ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ... ASC) AS intRow
FROM ...
) AS T
WHERE intRow BETWEEN 1 AND 5 OR intRow BETWEEN #Number - 5 AND #Number
Is it an option for you to use a union?
E.g.
select top 5 ... order by {specify columns asc}
union
select top 5 ... order by {specify columns desc}
i guess you have to do it using subquery only
select * from table where id in (
(SELECT id ORDER BY columnName LIMIT 5) OR
(SELECT id ORDER BY columnName DESC LIMIT 5)
)
select * from table where id in (
(SELECT TOP(5) id ORDER BY columnName) OR
(SELECT TOP(5) id ORDER BY columnName DESC)
)
EDITED
select * from table where id in (
(SELECT TOP 5 id ORDER BY columnName) OR
(SELECT TOP 5 id ORDER BY columnName DESC)
)
No real difference between this and the union that I'm aware of, but technically it is a single query.
select t.*
from table t
where t.id in (select top 5 t2.id from table t2 order by MyColumn)
or
t.id in (select top 5 t2.id from table t2 order by MyColumn desc);
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT x, rank() over (order by x asc) as rown
FROM table
) temp
where temp.rown = 1
or temp.rown = (select count(x) from table)
Then you are out - doing the select again IS the only option, unless you want to pull in the complete result set and then throwing away everything in between.
ANY sql I cna think of is the same way - for the bottom you need to know first either how many items you have (materialize everything or use count(*)) or a reverse sort order.
Sorry if that does not suit you, but at the end.... reality does not care, and I do not see any other way to do that.
I had to do this recently for a very large stored procedure; if your query is quite large, and you want to minimize the amount of queries you could declare a #tempTable, insert into that #tempTable then query from that #tempTable,
DECLARE #tempTable TABLE ( columns.. )
INSERT INTO #tempTable
VALUES ( SELECT.. your query here ..)
SELECT TOP(5) columns FROM #tempTable ORDER BY column ASC -- returns first to last
SELECT TOP(5) columns FROM #tempTable ORDER BY column DESC -- returns last to first
