TSQL - Need to query a database column which is populated by XML.
The Database has an iUserID column with an Application ID and VCKey
TxtValue is the Column name and the contained Data is similar to this
<BasePreferencesDataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/BasePreferencesDataSet.xsd">
<ViewModesTable>
<iViewID>1</iViewID>
</ViewModesTable>
<ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<iViewID>1</iViewID>
<iDataID>0</iDataID>
<strValue>False</strValue>
</ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<iViewID>1</iViewID>
<iDataID>5</iDataID>
<strValue>True</strValue>
</ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<iViewID>1</iViewID>
<iDataID>6</iDataID>
<strValue>True</strValue>
</ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<ViewMode_PreferenceData>
<iViewID>1</iViewID>
<iDataID>4</iDataID>
<strValue>False</strValue>
I want to be able to identify any iUserID in which the StrValue for iDataID's 5 and 6 are not set to True.
I have attempted to use a txtValue Like % statement but even if I copy the contents and query for it verbatim it will not yield a result leading me to believe that the XML data cannot be queried in this manner.

You can try XML-method .exist() together with an XPath with predicates:
WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'http://tempuri.org/BasePreferencesDataSet.xsd')
SELECT *
FROM YourTable
WHERE CAST(txtValue AS XML).exist('/BasePreferencesDataSet
/ViewMode_PreferenceData[iDataID=5 or iDataID=6]
/strValue[text()!="True"]')=1;
The namespace-declaration is needed to address the elements without a namespace prefix.
The <ViewMode_PreferenceData> is filtered for the fitting IDs, while the <strValue> is filtered for a content !="True". This will return any data row, where there is at least one entry, with an ID of 5 or 6 and a value not equal to "True".
So without sample data (including tags; sorry you're having trouble with that) it's tough to craft the complete query, but what you're looking for is XQuery, specifically the .exists method in T-SQL.
Something like
SELECT iUserID
FROM tblLocalUserPreferences
WHERE iApplicationID = 30
AND vcKey='MonitorPreferences'
AND (txtValue.exist('//iDataID[text()="5"]/../strValue[text()="True"]') = 0
OR txtValue.exist('//iDataID[text()="6"]/../strValue[text()="True"]')=0)
This should return all userID's where either iDataID 5 or 6 do NOT contain True. In other words, if both are true, you won't get that row back.
I created two string variables (tot and tot_value) and assigned a value (tot = MyVal) for testing. Then I created an Execute SQL Task which takes (tot) as parameter and the value returned is saved in tot_value.
In the General Tab, i set:
ResultSet to Single row. SQL Source Type to Direct input Query is listed below.
In Parameter Mapping I selected my tot variable with Input DirectionSQL_VARCHAR Data Type 1 as Parameter Name (Since i am using ODBC)Size set to default -1.
In Result SetResult Name to 1Variable Name to tot_value.
If in the query I hard code 'MyVal' i get the correct result, however when I use ? to use my variable as a parameter, I always get a 0 returned.
Note that my tot variable is set to MyVal
Any clue of what I might be missing? Thanks in advance

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 am using VS2013 with SQL server 2012, VB.net. I am developing a web application.
Let me say before I ask the question that this will probably be extremely simple for this board but I have not been able to find this through googling.
I have an SQL table that holds some data, two columns (settingName (nvarchar) and settingValue (float)). I want to do the following but using LinQ.
SELECT Settingvalue
FROM Settings
WHERE settingName = 'Name1'
I have the following so far in VB.
Dim db As New GMConnectionDataContext
Dim result = From a In db.Settings
Where a.SettingName = "Name1"
Select a.SettingValue
txtEgdon.Text = result
This doesn't work as result is a double but if I add .tostring to result then the output in the text box is the full linq query not the result I am looing for.
I just need to understand this simple query so I can build on it but I just cant get it and any help offered would be great.
This is because your result is an IQueryable and not a single value(even if you expect it to be). This is also why ToString will get you the SQL that will be run against your DB.
You need to get either the First or if you are really sure this would be a single value get Single. The OrDefaults are used in the case that no value is returned so the result will be null.
A Few options:
// You expect 1 to many results and get the first
txtEgdon.Text = result.First().ToString()
// You expect 0 to many results and get the first or null in case of zero results
txtEgdon.Text = result.FirstOrDefault().ToString()
// You expect exactly 1 result and get it (you will get an exception if no results are returned)
txtEgdon.Text = result.Single().ToString()
// You expect exactly 0 or 1 results and get null or the result
txtEgdon.Text = result.SingleOrDefault().ToString()
I would prefer the FirstOrDefault()
I am trying to fetch results from my sqlite database by providing a date range.
I have been able to fetch results by providing 3 filters
1. Name (textfield1)
2. From (date)(textfield2)
3. To (date)(textfield3)
I am inserting these field values taken from form into a table temp using following code
Statement statement6 = db.createStatement("INSERT INTO Temp(date,amount_bill,narration) select date,amount,narration from Bills where name=\'"+TextField1.getText()+"\' AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) <= substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',1,2) AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) >= substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',1,2) ");
statement6.prepare();
statement6.execute();
statement6.close();
Now if i enter the following input in my form for the above filters
1.Ricky
2.01/02/2012
3.28/02/2012
It fetches date between these date ranges perfectly.
But now i want to insert values that are below and above these 2 date ranges provided.
I have tried using this code.But it doesnt show up any result.I simply cant figure where the error is
The below code is to find entries having date lesser than 01/02/2012 and greater than 28/02/2012.
Statement statementVII = db.createStatement("INSERT INTO Temp5(date,amount_rec,narration) select date,amount,narration from Bills where name=\'"+TextField1.getText()+"\' AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) < substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',1,2) AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) > substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',1,2)");
statementVII.prepare();
statementVII.execute();
statementVII.close();
Anyone sound on this,please guide.Thanks.
you need to use an Or clause together with brackets:
WHERE name='....' AND (yourDateField<yourLowerDate OR yourDateField>yourHigherDate)
