So I'm having trouble understanding on how to change the date on an update in postgres. What I have currently, that is giving a syntax error is
UPDATE works_locations SET (wrl_startdate = '2014-09-07', wrl_enddate = '2015-02-06')
with a few statements determining which field I should specifically change. However, postgres is giving me an error. How do I successfully change the date in postgres, even if the start date is around two years prior to this entry?
I don't have Postgres installed so I can't test this but try removing the parenthesis on your SET clause so that it looks like this:
UPDATE works_locations SET wrl_startdate = '2014-09-07', wrl_enddate = '2015-02-06'

This is my table:
I want to change the TargetCondition column to 'TRUE' when the ICD9CODE column contains a particular range (like between 250 and 250.93).
Please help me do it. Thanks
This is the code here:
update demo.fea_02 set TargetCondition = TRUE where ICD9Code like between '%250%' and '%250.93%'
got the error:
Syntax error: Unexpected keyword BETWEEN at [6:17]
This answers the original version of the question.
You would use update:
update mytable
set targetcondition = 'TRUE'
where icd9code like '%value%';
I have the following update query in MS Access 2013
UPDATE WXObs SET WXObs.SnowFlag = 1
WHERE (((WXObs.StationID) ="451409") And(
(WxObs.ObsDate) Between #1/3/2003# AND #3/29/2003# OR
(WxObs.ObsDate) Between #11/16/2003# AND #5/7/2004# OR
(WxObs.ObsDate) Between #10/30/2004# AND #4/30/2005#));
This works until the end date in the range is not found. For instance, if 5/7/2004 is not in the data set, then the update continues to the next end date, in this case 4/30/2005.
I would prefer it ended on the last date in the range. For instance, if the data ended on 4/21/2004, that would be last field updated between 11/16/ and 5/7/2004. The query would then continue to update again beginning on 10/30/2004.
I have tried < and <=
Thanks
You're missing some parentheses that are affecting the evaluation order, causing the behavior that you're reporting.
What you want is for each of the BETWEEN portions to be evaluated completely before the OR option is evaluated, and you need to make sure that evaluation is done by surrounding the BETWEEN expressions in parentheses to guarantee the evaluation order.
This should correct it (untested, as you've not provided the test data necessary to create a test case).
UPDATE WXObs SET WXObs.SnowFlag = 1
WHERE
(WXObs.StationID ="451409")
And
(
(WxObs.ObsDate Between #1/3/2003# AND #3/29/2003#) OR
(WxObs.ObsDate Between #11/16/2003# AND #5/7/2004#) OR
(WxObs.ObsDate Between #10/30/2004# AND #4/30/2005#)
);
I've just started using microsoft access so I don't really know how to solve this. I would like to use an update query to add a value from a form to a value on a table.
I originally used the SUM expression which gave me an error saying it was an aggregate function.
I also tried to add the two values together (e.g [field1] + [field2]) which as a result gave me a value with both numbers together instead of adding them together.
The following is the SQL I'm using:
UPDATE Votes
SET Votes.NumVotes = [Votes]![NumVotes]+[Forms]![frmVote]![txtnumvotes]
WHERE (((Votes.ActID) = [Forms]![frmVote]![combacts])
AND ((Votes.RoundNum) = [Forms]![frmVote]![combrndnum]))
I want to add a value [txtnumvotes] a form to a field [NumVotes] from the table [Votes].
Could someone please help me?
You can specify the expected data type with parameters:
PARAMETERS
[Forms]![frmVote]![txtnumvotes] Short,
[Forms]![frmVote]![combacts] Long,
[Forms]![frmVote]![combrndnum] Long;
UPDATE
Votes
SET
Votes.NumVotes = [Votes]![NumVotes]+[Forms]![frmVote]![txtnumvotes]
WHERE
(((Votes.ActID) = [Forms]![frmVote]![combacts])
AND
((Votes.RoundNum) = [Forms]![frmVote]![combrndnum]))
Without the specification, Access has to guess, and that sometimes fails.
I want to rename several values on my table.
I just want to rename multi rows in a column of a table in my database :
SJ.10.06.000001
SJ.10.06.000002
SJ.10.06.000003
SA.10.06.000001
SB.10.06.000002
etc into this value :
SJ.09.06.000001
SJ.09.06.000002
SJ.09.06.000003
SA.09.06.000001
SB.09.06.000002
My SQL :
Update dbo.Deposito
set nomor sj.09...
where no rekening sj.10...
and I've got this :
Update dbo.Deposito
set nomor sj.09...
where no rekening sj.10...
Error
[Err] 42000 - [SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'sj'.
try this....
UPDATE dbo.Deposito
SET nomor = REPLACE(nomor, '.10.', '.09.')
WHERE SUBSTRING(nomor, 4, 2) = '10'
I think you can do this with substring too, but I could not remember the correct syntax, so I think you should try this.
It updates the values based on the 3rd and 4th characters in your table, so it exchanges 10 to 9, if that's what you are after.
There are a lot of ways to achieve this, it's just one of them.
update
I have tested this locally and it works.
UPDATE
dbo.Deposito
SET
nomor = REPLACE(nomor,'.10.','.09.')
WHERE
substring(nomor,4,2) = '10'
First of all, I know there are already questions and answers about it, this thread being the one that is closest to what I need:
SQL Update to the SUM of its joined values
However, I get a syntax error (operator missing) that seems to occur close to the FROM clause. However I can't see it. Does it not like the FROM itself ? I am not used to using FROM in an update statement but it seems like it's valid from the QA I just linked :|
Any idea why there would be a syntax error there ?
I am using Access 2007 SP3.
Edit:
Wow, I forgot to post the query...
UPDATE r
SET
r.tempsmoy_requete_min = tmm.moy_mob_requete
FROM
rapports AS r INNER JOIN
(SELECT
id_fichier,
Round(Sum(temps_requete_min)/3,0) As moy_mob_requete,
Round(Sum(temps_analyse_min)/3,0) As moy_mob_analyse,
Round(Sum(temps_maj_min)/3,0) As moy_mob_maj,
Round(Sum(temps_rap_min)/3,0) As moy_mob_rap,
Round(Sum(temps_ddc_min)/3,0) As moy_mob_ddc
FROM maintenances
WHERE
periode In (10,9,8) And
annee=2011
GROUP BY id_fichier) AS tmm ON rapports.id_rapport = tmm.id_fichier
WHERE
1=0
The WHERE 1=0 part is because I want to test further the subquery before running it.
Edit: This is some simpler query I am trying. I get a different error this time. It now tells me that tempsmoy_requete_min (and probably all other left operands) are not part of an aggregate function... which is the point of my query. Any idea ?
UPDATE
rapports INNER JOIN maintenances ON rapports.id_rapport = maintenances.id_fichier
SET
rapports.tempsmoy_requete_min = Round(Sum(temps_requete_min)/3,0),
rapports.tempsmoy_analyse_min = Round(Sum(temps_analyse_min)/3,0),
rapports.tempsmoy_maj_min = Round(Sum(temps_maj_min)/3,0),
rapports.tempsmoy_rap_min = Round(Sum(temps_rap_min)/3,0),
rapports.tempsmoy_ddc_min = Round(Sum(temps_ddc_min)/3,0)
WHERE
maintenances.periode In (10,9,8) And
maintenances.annee=2011 AND
1=0
I tried adapting your first query sample, and was able to make your error go away. However then I encountered a different error ('Operation must use an updateable query').
It may be possible to overcome that error, too. However, I found it easier to use a domain function instead of a join to retrieve the replacement value.
UPDATE rapports
SET tempsmoy_requete_min = Round(DSum("temps_requete_min",
"maintenances",
"periode In (10,9,8) AND annee=2011 "
& "AND id_fichier='" & id_rapport
& "'")/3, 0);
If this suggestion works for tempsmoy_requete_min with your data, you will have to extend it to the other fields you want to replace. That won't be pretty. You could make it less ugly with a saved query which you then use as the "Domain" parameter for DSum() ... that could allow you to use a simpler "Criteria" parameter.
UPDATE r
should be
UPDATE rapports
You can't reliably use an alias in the update target.
