I am creating a report in SSRS. Queries are working fine. I am getting the results if I hard coded the input values.
Now I have added three parameters:
YearMonths
SUGName
collection
YearMonths - Data is coming from the SQL query directly. No issues in that.
SUGName -
select cia.AssignmentID,CIA.Collectionid, concat(grp.Title,' -- ', CIA.CollectionName) as deploymentName from
v_CIAssignment cia
inner join v_CIAssignmentToGroup atg on cia.AssignmentType=5 and atg.AssignmentID=cia.AssignmentID
inner join v_AuthListInfo grp on cia.AssignmentType=5 and grp.CI_ID=atg.AssignedUpdateGroup
where concat(datepart(yyyy, grp.DateCreated), '-', RIGHT('0' + RTRIM(MONTH(grp.DateCreated)), 2)) = #YearMonths
Order By grp.Title desc
This is also working.
collection -
select cia.AssignmentID,CIA.Collectionid, concat(grp.Title,' -- ', CIA.CollectionName) as deploymentName from
v_CIAssignment cia
inner join v_CIAssignmentToGroup atg on cia.AssignmentType=5 and atg.AssignmentID=cia.AssignmentID
inner join v_AuthListInfo grp on cia.AssignmentType=5 and grp.CI_ID=atg.AssignedUpdateGroup
where cia.AssignmentID = #SUGName
Order By grp.Title desc
It is not working and is giving an error. The query is working fine. I checked that by putting in SUGName manually.
Below is the error I am getting.
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException:
The Value expression for the query parameter ‘#SUGName’ refers to a non-existing report parameter ‘SUGname’. Letters in the names of parameters must use the correct case.
The parameters references in SSRS are case sensitive. When you are referring to the parameter in your query, make sure SUGName is in the same case in your main query.

I have the following SQL statement which returns the desired result in SQL Server 2012:
SELECT
S.ONOMA
, S.DIEY
, S.POLH
, S.TK
, S.IDIOT
, S.KODIKOS
, S.AFM
FROM
SYNERG AS S
INNER JOIN
(SELECT
G.AFM, MIN(KODIKOS) AS KODIKOS
FROM SYNERG AS G
WHERE LEN(ISNULL(AFM, '')) != 0
GROUP BY AFM) AS I ON S.KODIKOS = I.KODIKOS
ORDER BY
S.AFM
but when I run the same SQL statement in MS Access 2007 I get an error:
Circular reference caused by 'KODIKOS' in query definition's SELECT list.
Any help would be appreciated.
As explained in the link by HansUp:
The alias of a calculated field cannot be identical to any of the field names used to calculate the field.
This can be rather annoying (esp. if it is a field that is returned by the query), but there is no way around it.
So you need to change the alias, e.g.:
SELECT
S.ONOMA
, S.DIEY
, S.POLH
, S.TK
, S.IDIOT
, S.KODIKOS
, S.AFM
FROM
SYNERG AS S
INNER JOIN
(SELECT
G.AFM, MIN(KODIKOS) AS MinKODIKOS
FROM SYNERG AS G
WHERE LEN(Nz(AFM, '')) <> 0
GROUP BY AFM) AS I ON S.KODIKOS = I.MinKODIKOS
ORDER BY
S.AFM
Note also that an IsNull() function exists in Access, but has a different meaning (it takes one argument and returns a Boolean). The corresponding function is Nz()
And (thanks #HansUp), the unequal operator is <>, not !=. I always use <> in SQL Server too, no need to make things more complicated than necessary. :)
I am running a SQL query in stored procedure which is like following
SELECT
t1.id,t2.Name
FROM
table1 t1 , table2 t2 ,table2 t3,table4 t4
WHERE
t1.id=t3.t4.id
this query gets executed on SQL server 2008 when its compatible with SQL server 2000 but if we turn OFF the compatibility with SQL server 2000 then this Query gives syntax error which is expected.
Can some one help me to understand why this is happeneing ? thanks in advance
Original query:
SELECT
ConfigID , LocationDesc + '-' + LOBTeamDesc LocLOBTeamSource
FROM Config CONFIG , Location_LOBTeam LOCLOB , Location LOC , LOBTeam LOB, System SRC
WHERE CONFIG.LocationLOBTeamID = LOC.LOB.LocationLOBTeamID
AND CONFIG.SourceSystemID = SRC.SystemID
AND LOCLOB.LocationID = LOC.LocationID
AND LOCLOB.LOBTeamID = LOB.LOBTeamID
AND (GETDATE() BETWEEN CONFIG.effectiveDate AND CONFIG.EndDate
OR CONFIG.EndDate IS NULL)
ORDER BY
LOC.LocationCode
I think that original query, with current standard join syntax applied would be this:
SELECT
ConfigID
, LocationDesc + '-' + LOBTeamDesc LocLOBTeamSource
FROM Config CONFIG
INNER JOIN Location_LOBTeam LOCLOB
ON CONFIG.LocationLOBTeamID = LOCLOB.LocationLOBTeamID
INNER JOIN Location LOC
ON LOCLOB.LocationID = LOC.LocationID
INNER JOIN LOBTeam LOB
ON LOCLOB.LOBTeamID = LOB.LOBTeamID
INNER JOIN [System] SRC
ON CONFIG.SourceSystemID = SRC.SystemID
WHERE (GETDATE() BETWEEN CONFIG.effectiveDate AND CONFIG.EndDate
OR CONFIG.EndDate IS NULL)
ORDER BY
LOC.LocationCode
Perhaps this will help.
+EDIT
"System" as a table name, could that be a problem? Suggest you try it as [System]
+EDIT2
The original is given with this: LOC.LOB.LocationLOBTeamID but that appears to be an error as there is an alias LOCLOB
I think below post from msdn answers this issue Compatibility Levels and Stored Procedures
in the above post the point number 3 under section "Differences Between Compatibility Level 80 and Level 90" states "WHEN binding the column references in the ORDER BY list to the columns defined in the SELECT list, column ambiguities are ignored and column prefixes are sometimes ignored. This can cause the result set to return in an unexpected order."
on my database I am using compatibility level 80 i.e 2000 thats why it runs smoothly with the given syntax but when I remove this compatibility and make it to 100 i.e. 2008/R2 script gives syntax error which is expected
Given a table of "events" where each event may be associated with zero or more "speakers" and zero or more "terms", those records associated with the events through join tables, I need to produce a table of all events with a column in each row which represents the list of "speaker_names" and "term_names" associated with each event.
However, when I run my query, I have duplication in the speaker_names and term_names values, since the join tables produce a row per association for each of the speakers and terms of the events:
1|Soccer|Bobby|Ball
2|Baseball|Bobby - Bobby - Bobby|Ball - Bat - Helmets
3|Football|Bobby - Jane - Bobby - Jane|Ball - Ball - Helmets - Helmets
The group_concat aggregate function has the ability to use 'distinct', which removes the duplication, though sadly it does not support that alongside the custom separator, which I really need. I am left with these results:
1|Soccer|Bobby|Ball
2|Baseball|Bobby|Ball,Bat,Helmets
3|Football|Bobby,Jane|Ball,Helmets
My question is this: Is there a way I can form the query or change the data structures in order to get my desired results?
Keep in mind this is a sqlite3 query I need, and I cannot add custom C aggregate functions, as this is for an Android deployment.
I have created a gist which makes it easy for you to test a possible solution: https://gist.github.com/4072840
Look up the speaker/term names independently from each other:
SELECT _id,
name,
(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(name, ';')
FROM events_speakers
JOIN speakers
ON events_speakers.speaker_id = speakers._id
WHERE events_speakers.event_id = events._id
) AS speaker_names,
(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(name, ';')
FROM events_terms
JOIN terms
ON events_terms.term_id = terms._id
WHERE events_terms.event_id = events._id
) AS term_names
FROM events
I ran accross this problem as well, but came up with a method that I found a bit easier to comprehend. Since SQLite reports SQLite3::SQLException: DISTINCT aggregates must have exactly one argument, the problem seems not so much related to the GROUP_CONCAT method, but with using DISTINCT within GROUP_CONCAT...
When you encapsulate the DISTINCT 'subquery' within a REPLACE method that actually does nothing you can have the relative simplicity of nawfal's suggestion without the drawback of only being able to concat comma-less strings properly.
SELECT events._id, events.name,
(group_concat(replace(distinct speakers.name),'',''), ' - ') AS speaker_names,
(group_concat(replace(distinct speakers.name),'',''), ' - ') AS term_names
FROM events
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT et.event_id, ts.name
FROM terms ts
JOIN events_terms et ON ts._id = et.term_id
) terms ON events._id = terms.event_id
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT sp._id, es.event_id, sp.name
FROM speakers sp
JOIN events_speakers es ON sp._id = es.speaker_id
) speakers ON events._id = speakers.event_id
GROUP BY events._id;
But actually I would consider this a SQLite bug / inconsistency, or am I missing something?
That's strange that SQLite doesnt support that!.
At the risk of being down voted, only if it helps:
You can avail Replace(X, Y, Z). But you have to be sure you wont have valid , values in your columns..
SELECT events._id, events.name,
REPLACE(group_concat(distinct speakers.name), ',', ' - ') AS speaker_names,
REPLACE(group_concat(distinct terms.name), ',', ' - ') AS term_names
FROM events
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT et.event_id, ts.name
FROM terms ts
JOIN events_terms et ON ts._id = et.term_id
) terms ON events._id = terms.event_id
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT sp._id, es.event_id, sp.name
FROM speakers sp
JOIN events_speakers es ON sp._id = es.speaker_id
) speakers ON events._id = speakers.event_id
GROUP BY events._id;
The problem arises only with the group_concat(X,Y) expression, not with the group_concat(X) expression.
group_concat(distinct X) works well.
So, if the ',' is good for you, there is no problem, but if you want a ';' instead of ',' (and you are sure no ',' is in your original text) you can do:
replace(group_concat(distinct X), ',', ';')
Just to put a proper workaround (murb's answer is strangely parenthesized).
problem:
group_concat(distinct column_name, 'custom_separator') takes custom_separator as a part of distinct.
solution:
We need some no-op to let SQLite know that distinct finished (to wrap distinct and it's arguments).
No-op can be replace with empty string as a second parameter (documentation to replace).
group_concat(replace(distinct column_name, '', ''), 'custom_separator')
edit:
just found that it does not work :-( - can be called but distinct is not working anymore
There is a special case that does not work in sqlite : group_concat(DISTINCT X, Y)
Whereas in SQL you can use group_concat(DISTINCT X SEPARATOR Y) in sqlite you can't
This example : Select group_concat(DISTINCT column1, '|') from example_table group by column2;
gives the result : DISTINCT aggregates must have exactly one argument At line 1:
The solution :
select rtrim(replace(group_concat(DISTINCT column1||'#!'), '#!,', '|'),'#!') from example_table
I have the following sql syntax that I used in my database query (SQL Server)
SELECT Nieuwsbrief.ID
, Nieuwsbrief.Titel
, Nieuwsbrief.Brief
, Nieuwsbrief.NieuwsbriefTypeCode
, (SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1
FROM NieuwsbriefCommentaar
WHERE (Nieuwsbrief.ID = NieuwsbriefCommentaar.NieuwsbriefID
AND NieuwsbriefCommentaar.Goedgekeurd = 1)) AS AantalCommentaren
FROM Nieuwsbrief
I'm changing now to sql-server-ce (compact edition) which won't allow me to have subqueries like this. Proposed solution : inner join. But as I only need a count of the subtable 'NieuwsbriefCommentaar', I have to use a 'group by' clause on my base table attributes to avoid doubles in the result set.
However the 'Nieuwbrief.Brief' attribute is of datatype 'text'. Group by clauses are not allowed on 'text' datatype in sql-server-ce. 'Text' datatype is deprecated, but sql-server-ce doesn't support 'nvarchar(max)' yet...
Any idea how to solve this? Thx for your help.
I think that the solution could be easier. I don't know exactly how is your metadata but I think that this code could fit your requirements by simply using LEFT JOIN.
SELECT Nieuwsbrief.ID
, Nieuwsbrief.Titel
, Nieuwsbrief.Brief
, Nieuwsbrief.NieuwsbriefTypeCode
, COUNT(NieuwsbriefCommentaar.NieuwsbriefID) AS AantalCommentaren
FROM Nieuwsbrief
LEFT JOIN NieuwsbriefCommentaar ON (Nieuwsbrief.ID = NieuwsbriefCommentaar.NieuwsbriefID)
WHERE NieuwsbriefCommentaar.Goedgekeurd = 1
Edited: 2ndOption
SELECT N.ID, N.Titel, N.Brief, N.NieuwsbriefTypeCode, G.AantalCommentaren FROM Nieuwsbrief as N LEFT JOIN (SELECT NieuwsbriefID, COUNT(*) AS AantalCommentaren FROM NieuwsbriefCommentaar GROUP BY NieuwsbriefID) AS G ON (N.ID = G.NieuwsbriefID)
Please, let me know if this code works in order to find out another workaround..
regards,
i'm having an issue comparing a date in an access database. basically i'm parsing out a date from a text field, then trying to compare that date to another to only pull newer/older records.
so far i have everything working, but when i try to add the expression to the where clause, it's acting like it's not a date value.
here's the full SQL:
SELECT
Switch(Isdate(TRIM(LEFT(bc_testingtickets.notes, Instr(bc_testingtickets.notes, ' ')))) = false, 'NOT ASSIGNED!!!') AS [Assigned Status],
TRIM(LEFT(bc_testingtickets.notes, Instr(bc_testingtickets.notes, ' '))) AS [Last Updated Date],
bc_testingtickets.notes AS [Work Diary],
bc_testingtickets.ticket_id,
clients.client_code,
bc_profilemain.SYSTEM,
list_picklists.TEXT,
list_picklists_1.TEXT,
list_picklists_2.TEXT,
list_picklists_3.TEXT,
bc_testingtickets.createdate,
bc_testingtickets.completedate,
Datevalue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' ')))) AS datetest
FROM list_picklists AS list_picklists_3
RIGHT JOIN (list_picklists AS list_picklists_2
RIGHT JOIN (list_picklists AS list_picklists_1
RIGHT JOIN (bc_profilemain
RIGHT JOIN (((bc_testingtickets
LEFT JOIN clients
ON
bc_testingtickets.broker = clients.client_id)
LEFT JOIN list_picklists
ON
bc_testingtickets.status = list_picklists.id)
LEFT JOIN bc_profile2ticketmapping
ON bc_testingtickets.ticket_id =
bc_profile2ticketmapping.ticket_id)
ON bc_profilemain.id =
bc_profile2ticketmapping.profile_id)
ON list_picklists_1.id = bc_testingtickets.purpose)
ON list_picklists_2.id = bc_profilemain.destination)
ON list_picklists_3.id = bc_profilemain.security_type
WHERE ( ( ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Passed'
AND ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Failed'
AND ( list_picklists.TEXT ) <> 'Rejected' )
AND ( ( bc_testingtickets.ticket_id ) <> 4386 ) )
GROUP BY bc_testingtickets.notes,
bc_testingtickets.ticket_id,
clients.client_code,
bc_profilemain.SYSTEM,
list_picklists.TEXT,
list_picklists_1.TEXT,
list_picklists_2.TEXT,
list_picklists_3.TEXT,
bc_testingtickets.createdate,
bc_testingtickets.completedate,
DateValue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' '))))
ORDER BY Datevalue(TRIM(LEFT([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], Instr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes], ' '))));
the value i'm trying to compare against a various date is this:
DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' '))))
if i add a section to the where clause like below, i get the Data Type Mismatch error:
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
i've even tried using the DateValue function around the manual date i'm testing with but i still get the mismatch error:
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > DateValue("4/1/2012")
any tips on how i can compare a date in this method? i can't change any fields in the database, ect, that's why i'm parsing the date in SQL and trying to manipulate it so i can run reports against it.
i've tried googling but nothing specifically talks about parsing a date from text and converting it to a date object. i think it may be a bug or the way the date is being returned from the left/trim functions. you can see i've added a column to the end of the SELECT statement called DateTest and it's obvious access is treating it like a date (when the query is run, it asks to sort by oldest to newest/newest to oldest instead of A-Z or Z-A), unlike the second column in the select.
thanks in advance for any tips/clues on how i can query based on the date.
edit:
i just tried the following statements in my where clause and still getting a mismatch:
CDate(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
CDate(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) >
CDate("4/1/2012") CDate(DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' '))))) > #4/1/2012#
i tried with all the various combinations i could think of regarding putting CDate inside of DateValue, outside, ect. the CDate function does look like what i should be using though. not sure why it's still throwing the error.
here's a link to a screenshot showing the results of the query http://ramonecung.com/access.jpg. there's two screenshots in one image.
You reported you get Data Type Mismatch error with this WHERE clause.
WHERE DateValue(Trim(Left([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],
InStr([bc_TestingTickets].[notes],' ')))) > #4/1/2012#
That makes me wonder whether [bc_TestingTickets].[notes] can ever be Null, either because the table design allows Null for that field, or Nulls are prohibited by the design but are present in the query's set of candidate rows as the result of a LEFT or RIGHT JOIN.
If Nulls are present, your situation may be similar to this simple query which also triggers the data type mismatch error:
SELECT DateValue(Trim(Left(Null,InStr(Null,' '))));
If that proves to be the cause of your problem, you will have to design around it somehow. I can't offer a suggestion about how you should do that. Trying to analyze your query scared me away. :-(
It seems like you are having a problem with the type conversion. In this case, I believe that you are looking for the CDate function.
A problem might be the order of the date parts. A test in the Immediate window shows this
?cdate(#4/1/2012#)
01.04.2012
?cdate(#2012/1/4#)
04.01.2012
Write the dates backwards in the format yyyy/MM/dd and thus avoiding inadverted swapping of days and months!
DateValue("2012/1/4")
and
CDate(#2012/1/4#)
