How I can copy ID from table A to table B - sql

This is SQL code:
Declare #A_ID AS A_ID
insert into TBL_FO VALUES(NEWID(), #A_ID, '30000.00','1','1')
(select * from TBL_DETAIL where A_ID = '59366409-2EB6-49BC-A88F-801692B735D6')
I want to follow or copy the A_ID from TBL_DETAIL as '59366409-2EB6-49BC-A88F-801692B735D6' to TBL_FO for #A_ID.. How I can declare the A_ID for copy the same ID

Try this:
Declare #A_ID as varchar(100) -- adjust the length as needed
select #A_ID = A_ID from TBL_DETAIL where A_ID = '59366409-2EB6-49BC-A88F-801692B735D6'
Declare #FO_ID as int -- To insert this into One or more tables
SET #FO_ID = NEWID() -- Initialize it one time.
insert into TBL_FO VALUES(#FO_ID, #A_ID, '30000.00','1','1') -- First use of #FO_ID
insert into TBL_SOMEOTHERTBL VALUES( #FO_ID, .... ) -- Second use of #FO_ID
etc ...

Specify the columns you want to set and then follow with the subquery having the values you need in addition to the A_ID(in the order of your column names) :
insert
into
TBL_FO (FirstColumnName,
SecondColumnName,
ThirdColumnName,
FourthColumnName,
FifthColumnName)
(select
NEWID(),
A_ID,
'30000.00',
'1',
'1'
from
TBL_DETAIL
where
A_ID = '59366409-2EB6-49BC-A88F-801692B735D6')
Note: there is also the option to not specify the column names if the table columns are in the same order as you insert them

SQL: UPDATE many-to-many's intermediate table

I have table A and table B. Relation between them done using intermediate table AB, which stores ID's from both.
Table A
ID integer
Value varchar(MAX)
Table B
ID integer
Value varchar(MAX)
Table AB
AID integer
BID integer
I can select needed data with JOIN's, but how to write data into AB?
I mean if I'll get AID and list of integer's (done as custom type Array_Integer table(ID integer)) , which is BID, how to update relations in AB with a received list of BID's?
I can do a lot of dirty and manually work, but I'm looking for a more true way.
UPD: check schema on pastebin — http://pastebin.com/BeKm2h3F
If I understand you correct, this query should be what you need.
INSERT INTO AB
SELECT * FROM
(
-- Here you write your AID value instead of 1
SELECT 1 AS AID
) AS a1
CROSS JOIN
(
-- Query that returns list if id's from table B
SELECT ID AS BID FROM B WHERE ID < 5
)
You can update the TableAB as follows :
declare #Aid int
declare #Bid int
insert into TableA(value)
select 'abcd'
set #Aid = ident_currect('TableA')
insert into TableB(value)
select 'xyz'
set #Bid = ident_currect('TableB')
insert into TableAB -- This will update your junction table
select #Aid,#Bid
I am assuming that your tableA and TableB have identity columns. You can also use scope_identity() instead of ident_currect()

Left join with nearest value without duplicates

I want to achieve in MS SQL something like below, using 2 tables and through join instead of iteration.
From table A, I want each row to identify from table B which in the list is their nearest value, and when value has been selected, that value cannot re-used. Please help if you've done something like this before. Thank you in advance! #SOreadyToAsk
Below is a set-based solution using CTEs and windowing functions.
The ranked_matches CTE assigns a closest match rank for each row in TableA along with a closest match rank for each row in TableB, using the index value as a tie breaker.
The best_matches CTE returns rows from ranked_matches that have the best rank (rank value 1) for both rankings.
Finally, the outer query uses a LEFT JOIN from TableA to the to the best_matches CTE to include the TableA rows that were not assigned a best match due to the closes match being already assigned.
Note that this does not return a match for the index 3 TableA row indicated in your sample results. The closes match for this row is TableB index 3, a difference of 83. However, that TableB row is a closer match to the TableA index 2 row, a difference of 14 so it was already assigned. Please clarify you question if this isn't what you want. I think this technique can be tweaked accordingly.
CREATE TABLE dbo.TableA(
[index] int NOT NULL
CONSTRAINT PK_TableA PRIMARY KEY
, value int
);
CREATE TABLE dbo.TableB(
[index] int NOT NULL
CONSTRAINT PK_TableB PRIMARY KEY
, value int
);
INSERT INTO dbo.TableA
( [index], value )
VALUES ( 1, 123 ),
( 2, 245 ),
( 3, 342 ),
( 4, 456 ),
( 5, 608 );
INSERT INTO dbo.TableB
( [index], value )
VALUES ( 1, 152 ),
( 2, 159 ),
( 3, 259 );
WITH
ranked_matches AS (
SELECT
a.[index] AS a_index
, a.value AS a_value
, b.[index] b_index
, b.value AS b_value
, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY a.[index] ORDER BY ABS(a.Value - b.value), b.[index]) AS a_match_rank
, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY b.[index] ORDER BY ABS(a.Value - b.value), a.[index]) AS b_match_rank
FROM dbo.TableA AS a
CROSS JOIN dbo.TableB AS b
)
, best_matches AS (
SELECT
a_index
, a_value
, b_index
, b_value
FROM ranked_matches
WHERE
a_match_rank = 1
AND b_match_rank= 1
)
SELECT
TableA.[index] AS a_index
, TableA.value AS a_value
, best_matches.b_index
, best_matches.b_value
FROM dbo.TableA
LEFT JOIN best_matches ON
best_matches.a_index = TableA.[index]
ORDER BY
TableA.[index];
EDIT:
Although this method uses CTEs, recursion is not used and is therefore not limited to 32K recursions. There may be room for improvement here from a performance perspective, though.
I don't think it is possible without a cursor.
Even if it is possible to do it without a cursor, it would definitely require self-joins, maybe more than once. As a result performance is likely to be poor, likely worse than straight-forward cursor. And it is likely that it would be hard to understand the logic and later maintain this code. Sometimes cursors are useful.
The main difficulty is this part of the question:
when value has been selected, that value cannot re-used.
There was a similar question just few days ago.
The logic is straight-forward. Cursor loops through all rows of table A and with each iteration adds one row to the temporary destination table. To determine the value to add I use EXCEPT operator that takes all values from the table B and removes from them all values that have been used before. My solution assumes that there are no duplicates in value in table B. EXCEPT operator removes duplicates. If values in table B are not unique, then temporary table would hold unique indexB instead of valueB, but main logic remains the same.
Here is SQL Fiddle.
Sample data
DECLARE #TA TABLE (idx int, value int);
INSERT INTO #TA (idx, value) VALUES
(1, 123),
(2, 245),
(3, 342),
(4, 456),
(5, 608);
DECLARE #TB TABLE (idx int, value int);
INSERT INTO #TB (idx, value) VALUES
(1, 152),
(2, 159),
(3, 259);
Main query inserts result into temporary table #TDst. It is possible to write that INSERT without using explicit variable #CurrValueB, but it looks a bit cleaner with variable.
DECLARE #TDst TABLE (idx int, valueA int, valueB int);
DECLARE #CurrIdx int;
DECLARE #CurrValueA int;
DECLARE #CurrValueB int;
DECLARE #iFS int;
DECLARE #VarCursor CURSOR;
SET #VarCursor = CURSOR FAST_FORWARD
FOR
SELECT idx, value
FROM #TA
ORDER BY idx;
OPEN #VarCursor;
FETCH NEXT FROM #VarCursor INTO #CurrIdx, #CurrValueA;
SET #iFS = ##FETCH_STATUS;
WHILE #iFS = 0
BEGIN
SET #CurrValueB =
(
SELECT TOP(1) Diff.valueB
FROM
(
SELECT B.value AS valueB
FROM #TB AS B
EXCEPT -- remove values that have been selected before
SELECT Dst.valueB
FROM #TDst AS Dst
) AS Diff
ORDER BY ABS(Diff.valueB - #CurrValueA)
);
INSERT INTO #TDst (idx, valueA, valueB)
VALUES (#CurrIdx, #CurrValueA, #CurrValueB);
FETCH NEXT FROM #VarCursor INTO #CurrIdx, #CurrValueA;
SET #iFS = ##FETCH_STATUS;
END;
CLOSE #VarCursor;
DEALLOCATE #VarCursor;
SELECT * FROM #TDst ORDER BY idx;
Result
idx valueA valueB
1 123 152
2 245 259
3 342 159
4 456 NULL
5 608 NULL
It would help to have the following indexes:
TableA - (idx) include (value), because we SELECT idx, value ORDER BY idx;
TableB - (value) unique, Temp destination table - (valueB) unique filtered NOT NULL, to help EXCEPT. So, it may be better to have a temporary #table for result (or permanent table) instead of table variable, because table variables can't have indexes.
Another possible method would be to delete a row from table B (from original or from a copy) as its value is inserted into result. In this method we can avoid performing EXCEPT again and again and it could be faster overall, especially if it is OK to leave table B empty in the end. Still, I don't see how to avoid cursor and processing individual rows in sequence.

I highly believe THIS IS NOT A GOOD PRACTICE because I am bypassing the policy SQL made for itself that functions with side-effects (INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE) is a NO, but due to the fact that I want solve this without resulting to iteration options, I came up with this and gave me better view of things now.
create table tablea
(
num INT,
val MONEY
)
create table tableb
(
num INT,
val MONEY
)
I created a hard-table temp which I shall drop from time-to-time.
if((select 1 from sys.tables where name = 'temp_tableb') is not null) begin drop table temp_tableb end
select * into temp_tableb from tableb
I created a function that executes xp_cmdshell (this is where the side-effect bypassing happens)
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[GetNearestMatch]
(
#ParamValue MONEY
)
RETURNS MONEY
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE #ReturnNum MONEY
, #ID INT
SELECT TOP 1
#ID = num
, #ReturnNum = val
FROM temp_tableb ORDER BY ABS(val - #ParamValue)
DECLARE #SQL varchar(500)
SELECT #SQL = 'osql -S' + ##servername + ' -E -q "delete from test..temp_tableb where num = ' + CONVERT(NVARCHAR(150),#ID) + ' "'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell #SQL
RETURN #ReturnNum
END
and my usage in my query simply looks like this.
-- initialize temp
if((select 1 from sys.tables where name = 'temp_tableb') is not null) begin drop table temp_tableb end
select * into temp_tableb from tableb
-- query nearest match
select
*
, dbo.GetNearestMatch(a.val) AS [NearestValue]
from tablea a
and gave me this..

SQL:Updating a value (coming from destination table) in the source table after copying the data from source to destination table

The tables I have are;
TableA {TableA_OID, TableB_OID, SomeFields} //Source Table
TableB{TableB_OID, SomeFields} //Destination Table
I have to copy some data from source table to destination table, and on success i want to take the primary key identity field(TableB_OID) of destination table back to update (TableB_OID) field in the source table.
I think the following will work, but I'd play with it with some reasonable size data sets first, to be sure:
DECLARE #TA TABLE (ID INT IDENTITY(1,1), AID INT)
INSERT #TA(AID) SELECT TableA_OID FROM TABLEA -- ORDER BY data desc
DECLARE #TB TABLE (ID INT IDENTITY(1,1), BID INT)
INSERT TableB( data )
OUTPUT Inserted.TableB_OID INTO #TB(BID)
SELECT data
FROM #TA TA JOIN TableA ON TA.AID=TableA.TableA_OID ORDER BY TA.ID
SELECT * FROM #TA
SELECT * FROM #TB
UPDATE TableA
SET TableB_OID=TB.BID
FROM #TB TB
JOIN #TA TA ON TB.ID=TA.ID
JOIN TableA ON TA.AID=TableA.TableA_OID
SELECT * FROM TableA
SELECT * FROM TableB
First of all we're going to impose an order on the data we pull from table A, and use an identity column in a temporary table to record that order, linked to the original table A records. We'll then insert data into table B using that order, and record the resulting output into another temporary table. Again, we'll use an identity to record the sequence. We'll then use the identity values from the two temporary tables to link the tableA and tableB rows
I think you want to select the scope_identity()?
This will do a single row:
INSERT INTO TableB (
something
)
VALUES (
'Some Value'
)
DECLARE #Id int
SET #Id = scope_identity()
UPDATE TableA SET tableB_OID = #Id WHERE TableA_OID = TableAId
If you need to copy more than one row at once, something like the following will work:
DECLARE #data TABLE(ID int, data varchar(50))
INSERT TableB( data )
OUTPUT Inserted.TableB_OID, INSERTed.data INTO #data
SELECT data FROM TableA
UPDATE TableA
SET TableB_OID=D.ID
FROM #data D JOIN TableA ON D.DATA=TableA.data
It does make an assumption though, that there is a unique key in your "SomeField" (column "data") in my example, otherwise you can't relate the identity data back into tableA. If there is, then fine, otherwise, as Steph said, you'll need to add a TableA_OID field into TableB to be able to do the join to write back the data

Delete multiple duplicate rows in table

I have multiple groups of duplicates in one table (3 records for one, 2 for another, etc) - multiple rows where more than 1 exists.
Below is what I came up with to delete them, but I have to run the script for however many duplicates there are:
set rowcount 1
delete from Table
where code in (
select code from Table
group by code
having (count(code) > 1)
)
set rowcount 0
This works well to a degree. I need to run this for every group of duplicates, and then it only deletes 1 (which is all I need right now).
If you have a key column on the table, then you can use this to uniquely identify the "distinct" rows in your table.
Just use a sub query to identify a list of ID's for unique rows and then delete everything outside of this set. Something along the lines of.....
create table #TempTable
(
ID int identity(1,1) not null primary key,
SomeData varchar(100) not null
)
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData1')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData1')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData3')
insert into #TempTable(SomeData) values('someData4')
select * from #TempTable
--Records to be deleted
SELECT ID
FROM #TempTable
WHERE ID NOT IN
(
select MAX(ID)
from #TempTable
group by SomeData
)
--Delete them
DELETE
FROM #TempTable
WHERE ID NOT IN
(
select MAX(ID)
from #TempTable
group by SomeData
)
--Final Result Set
select * from #TempTable
drop table #TempTable;
Alternatively you could use a CTE for example:
WITH UniqueRecords AS
(
select MAX(ID) AS ID
from #TempTable
group by SomeData
)
DELETE A
FROM #TempTable A
LEFT outer join UniqueRecords B on
A.ID = B.ID
WHERE B.ID IS NULL
It is frequently more efficient to copy unique rows into temporary table,
drop source table, rename back temporary table.
I reused the definition and data of #TempTable, called here as SrcTable instead, since it is impossible to rename temporary table into a regular one)
create table SrcTable
(
ID int identity(1,1) not null primary key,
SomeData varchar(100) not null
)
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData1')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData1')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData2')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData3')
insert into SrcTable(SomeData) values('someData4')
by John Sansom in previous answer
-- cloning "unique" part
SELECT * INTO TempTable
FROM SrcTable --original table
WHERE id IN
(SELECT MAX(id) AS ID
FROM SrcTable
GROUP BY SomeData);
GO;
DROP TABLE SrcTable
GO;
sys.sp_rename 'TempTable', 'SrcTable'
You can alternatively use ROW_NUMBER() function to filter out duplicates
;WITH [CTE_DUPLICATES] AS
(
SELECT RN = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY SomeData ORDER BY SomeData)
FROM #TempTable
)
DELETE FROM [CTE_DUPLICATES] WHERE RN > 1
SET ROWCOUNT 1
DELETE Table
FROM Table a
WHERE (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Table b WHERE b.Code = a.Code ) > 1
WHILE ##rowcount > 0
DELETE Table
FROM Table a
WHERE (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Table b WHERE b.Code = a.Code ) > 1
SET ROWCOUNT 0
this will delete all duplicate rows, But you can add attributes if you want to compare according to them .

Delete duplicated rows and Update references

How do I Delete duplicated rows in one Table and update References in another table to the remaining row? The duplication only occurs in the name. The Id Columns are Identity columns.
Example:
Assume we have two tables Doubles and Data.
Doubles table (
Id int,
Name varchar(50)
)
Data Table (
Id int,
DoublesId int
)
Now I Have Two entries in the Doubls table:
Id Name
1 Foo
2 Foo
And two entries in the Data Table:
ID DoublesId
1 1
2 2
At the end there should be only one entry in the Doubles Table:
Id Name
1 Foo
And two entries in the Data Table:
Id DoublesId
1 1
2 1
In the doubles Table there can be any number of duplicated rows per name (up to 30) and also regular 'single' rows.
I've not run this, but hopefully it should be correct, and close enough to the final soln to get you there. Let me know any mistakes if you like and I'll update the answer.
--updates the data table to the min ids for each name

on min_ids.name = Doubles.name
--deletes redundant ids from the Doubles table
delete
from Doubles
where id not in
(
select
min(id) as final_id
from Doubles
group by name
)
Note: I have taken the liberty to rename your Id's to DoubleID and DataID respectively. I find that eassier to work with.
DECLARE #Doubles TABLE (DoubleID INT, Name VARCHAR(50))
DECLARE #Data TABLE (DataID INT, DoubleID INT)
INSERT INTO #Doubles VALUES (1, 'Foo')
INSERT INTO #Doubles VALUES (2, 'Foo')

INSERT INTO #Doubles VALUES (4, 'Bar')
INSERT INTO #Data VALUES (1, 1)
INSERT INTO #Data VALUES (1, 2)
INSERT INTO #Data VALUES (1, 3)
INSERT INTO #Data VALUES (1, 4)
SELECT * FROM #Doubles
SELECT * FROM #Data
UPDATE #Data
SET DoubleID = MinDoubleID
FROM #Data dt
INNER JOIN #Doubles db ON db.DoubleID = dt.DoubleID
INNER JOIN (
SELECT db.Name, MinDoubleID = MIN(db.DoubleID)
FROM #Doubles db
GROUP BY db.Name

/* Kudos to quassnoi */
;WITH q AS (

If you are using MYSQL following worked for me. I did it for 2 steps
Step 1 -> Update all Data rows to one Double table reference (with lowest id)
Step 2 -> Delete all duplicates with keeping lowest id
Step 1 ->
update Data
join
Doubles
on Data.DoublesId = Doubles.id
join
(
select name, min(id) as final_id
from Doubles
group by name
) min_ids
on min_ids.name = Doubles.name
set DoublesId = min_ids.final_id;
Step 2 ->
DELETE c1 FROM Doubles c1
INNER JOIN Doubles c2
WHERE
c1.id > c2.id AND
c1.name = c2.name;
