Microsoft TSQL change text row to column - tsql

I want to change the 20 rows with one column to 1 row with 20 columns to insert it later in a second database
Name
----------
- Frank
- Dora
- ...
- Michael
to
Name1 | Name2 | ... | Name20
Frank | Dora | ... | Michael
I tried
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT TOP 20 firstname AS NAME
FROM database) AS d
PIVOT (Min(NAME)
FOR NAME IN (name1,
name2,
name3,
name4,
name5,
name6,
name7,
name8,
name9,
name10,
name11,
name12,
name13,
name14,
name15,
name16,
name18,
name19,
name20) ) AS f
But all names are NULL. DEMO

You were close... But your inner select must carry the new column name. Try it like this:
DECLARE #tbl TABLE(Name VARCHAR(100));
INSERT INTO #tbl VALUES('Frank'),('Dora'),('Michael');
SELECT p.*
FROM
(
SELECT 'Name' + CAST(ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY Name) AS VARCHAR(150)) AS ColumnName
,Name
From #tbl
) AS tbl
PIVOT
(
MIN(Name) FOR ColumnName IN(Name1,Name2,Name3)
) AS p

How to compare two identicals tables data of each column in postgres?

I want compare two table's all column values.The two table is identical tables means column number is same and primary key is same. can any one suggest query which compare such two tables in postgres.
The query should give the column name and what is the two different value of two tables.Like this
pkey | column_name | table1_value | table2_value
123 | bonus | 1 | 0
To get all different rows you can use:
select *
from table_1 t1
join table_2 t2 on t1.pkey = t2.pkey
where t1 is distinct from t2;
This will only compare rows that exist in both tables. If you also want to find those that are missing in on of them use a full outer join:
select coalesce(t1.pkey, t2.pkey) as pkey,
case
when t1.pkey is null then 'Missing in table_1'
when t2.pkey is null then 'Missing in table_2'
else 'At least one column is different'
end as status,
*
from table_1 t1
full ojoin table_2 t2 on t1.pkey = t2.pkey
where (t1 is distinct from t2)
or (t1.pkey is null)
or (t2.pkey is null);
If you install the hstore extension, you can view the differences as a key/value map:
select coalesce(t1.pkey, t2.pkey) as pkey,
case
when t1.pkey is null then 'Missing in table_1'
when t2.pkey is null then 'Missing in table_2'
else 'At least one column is different'
end as status,
hstore(t1) - hstore(t2) as values_in_table_1,
hstore(t2) - hstore(t1) as values_in_table_2
from table_1 t1
full ojoin table_2 t2 on t1.pkey = t2.pkey
where (t1 is distinct from t2)
or (t1.pkey is null)
or (t2.pkey is null);
Using this sample data:
create table table_1 (pkey integer primary key, col_1 text, col_2 int);
insert into table_1 (pkey, col_1, col_2)
values (1, 'a', 1), (2, 'b', 2), (3, 'c', 3), (5, 'e', 42);
create table table_2 (pkey integer primary key, col_1 text, col_2 int);
insert into table_2 (pkey, col_1, col_2)
values (1,'a', 1), (2, 'x', 2), (3, 'c', 33), (4, 'd', 52);
A possible result would be:
pkey | status | values_in_table_1 | values_in_table_2
-----+----------------------------------+-------------------+------------------
2 | At least one column is different | "col_1"=>"b" | "col_1"=>"x"
3 | At least one column is different | "col_2"=>"3" | "col_2"=>"33"
4 | Missing in table_1 | |
5 | Missing in table_2 | |
Example data:
create table test1(pkey serial primary key, str text, val int);
insert into test1 (str, val) values ('a', 1), ('b', 2), ('c', 3);
create table test2(pkey serial primary key, str text, val int);
insert into test2 (str, val) values ('a', 1), ('x', 2), ('c', 33);
This simple query gives a complete information on differences of two tables (including rows missing in one of them):
(select 1 t, * from test1
except
select 1 t, * from test2)
union all
(select 2 t, * from test2
except
select 2 t, * from test1)
order by pkey, t;
t | pkey | str | val
---+------+-----+-----
1 | 2 | b | 2
2 | 2 | x | 2
1 | 3 | c | 3
2 | 3 | c | 33
(4 rows)
In Postgres 9.5+ you can transpose the result to the expected format using jsonb functions:
select pkey, key as column, val[1] as value_1, val[2] as value_2
from (
select pkey, key, array_agg(value order by t) val
from (
select t, pkey, key, value
from (
(select 1 t, * from test1
except
select 1 t, * from test2)
union all
(select 2 t, * from test2
except
select 2 t, * from test1)
) s,
lateral jsonb_each_text(to_jsonb(s))
group by 1, 2, 3, 4
) s
group by 1, 2
) s
where key <> 't' and val[1] <> val[2]
order by pkey;
pkey | column | value_1 | value_2
------+--------+---------+---------
2 | str | b | x
3 | val | 3 | 33
(2 rows)
I tried all of the above answer.Thanks guys for your help.Bot after googling I found a simple query.
SELECT <common_column_list> from table1
EXCEPT
SELECT <common_column_list> from table2.
It shows all the row of table1 if any table1 column value is different from table2 column value.
Not very nice but fun and it works :o)
Just replace public.mytable1 and public.mytable2 by correct tables and
update the " where table_schema='public' and table_name='mytable1'"
select * from (
select pkey,column_name,t1.col_value table1_value,t2.col_value table2_value from (
select pkey,generate_subscripts(t,1) ordinal_position,unnest(t) col_value from (
select pkey,
(
replace(regexp_replace( -- null fields
'{'||substring(a::character varying,'^.(.*).$') ||'}' -- {} instead of ()
,'([\{,])([,\}])','\1null\2','g'),',,',',null,')
)::TEXT[] t
from public.mytable1 a
) a) t1
left join (
select pkey,generate_subscripts(t,1) ordinal_position,unnest(t) col_value from (
select pkey,
(
replace(regexp_replace( -- null fields
'{'||substring(a::character varying,'^.(.*).$') ||'}' -- {} instead of ()
,'([\{,])([,\}])','\1null\2','g'),',,',',null,')
)::TEXT[] t
from public.mytable2 a
) a) t2 using (pkey,ordinal_position)
join (select * from information_schema.columns where table_schema='public' and table_name='mytable1') c using (ordinal_position)
) final where COALESCE(table1_value,'')!=COALESCE(table2_value,'')

How to get all combinations of comma separated values in a T-SQL query

I have table with three columns: column 2 and 3 contains comma-separated values.
-col1----col2---col3--
| 1 | 1,2,3 | 4,5 |
----------------------
What is the most efficient way to get a table of three columns that contains all the combinations of values of these three columns, like this:
1 | 1 | 4
1 | 2 | 4
1 | 3 | 4
1 | 1 | 5
1 | 2 | 5
1 | 3 | 5
Using query and nodes:
DECLARE #t TABLE (col1 VARCHAR(100), col2 VARCHAR(100), col3 VARCHAR(100))
INSERT #t VALUES ('1', '1,2,3', '4,5')
;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT
col1 = CAST('<x>' + REPLACE(col1, ',','</x><x>') + '</x>' AS XML),
col2 = CAST('<x>' + REPLACE(col2, ',','</x><x>') + '</x>' AS XML),
col3 = CAST('<x>' + REPLACE(col3, ',','</x><x>') + '</x>' AS XML)
FROM #t
)
SELECT
col1.n.query('.[1]').value('.', 'int'),
col2.n.query('.[1]').value('.', 'int'),
col3.n.query('.[1]').value('.', 'int')
FROM
cte
CROSS APPLY col1.nodes('x') AS col1(n)
CROSS APPLY col2.nodes('x') AS col2(n)
CROSS APPLY col3.nodes('x') AS col3(n)

T-SQL One column in multiple columns select query

I have a simple problem that I have not been able to find a solution to and I'm hoping someone on StackOverflow can help.
I currently have an example query as shown below
SELECT ID
, ColumnName
FROM Table
If I run this query I get the following result:
==================
ID | ColumnName
------------------
1 | One_Two_Three
2 | Four_Five_Six
==================
The result I'm after is as follows:
========================
ID | Col1 | Col2 | Col3
------------------------
1 | One | Two | Three
2 | Four | Five | Six
========================
Your assistence is appreciated.
Have a look at this example
DECLARE #Table1 TABLE
([ID] int, [ColumnName] varchar(13))
INSERT INTO #Table1
([ID], [ColumnName])
VALUES
(1, 'One_Two_Three'),
(2, 'Four_Five_Six')
;WITH Vals AS (
SELECT *,
CAST('<d>' + REPLACE([ColumnName], '_', '</d><d>') + '</d>' AS XML) ColumnValue
FROM #Table1
)
SELECT v.*,
A.B.value('.', 'varchar(max)')
FROM Vals v CROSS APPLY
ColumnValue.nodes('/d') A(B)

This function ought to give you what you need.
--Drop Function Dbo.Part
Create Function Dbo.Part
(#Value Varchar(8000)
,#Part Int
,#Sep Char(1)='-'
)Returns Varchar(8000)
As Begin
Declare #Start Int
Declare #Finish Int
Set #Start=1
Set #Finish=CharIndex(#Sep,#Value,#Start)
While (#Part>1 And #Finish>0)Begin
Set #Start=#Finish+1
Set #Finish=CharIndex(#Sep,#Value,#Start)
Set #Part=#Part-1
End
If #Part>1 Set #Start=Len(#Value)+1 -- Not found
If #Finish=0 Set #Finish=Len(#Value)+1 -- Last token on line
Return SubString(#Value,#Start,#Finish-#Start)
End
Usage:
Select ID
,Dbo.Part(Name,1,Default)As Name
,Dbo.Part(Name,2,Default)As Name1
,Dbo.Part(Name,3,Default)As Name2
From Dbo.Table1
It's rather compute-intensive, so if Table1 is very long you ought to write the results to another table, which you could refresh from time to time (perhaps once a day, at night).
Better yet, you could create a trigger, which automatically updates Table2 whenever a change is made to Table1. Assuming that column ID is primary key:
Create Table Dbo.Table2(
ID Int Constraint PK_Table2 Primary Key,
Name Varchar(8000),
Name1 Varchar(8000),
Name2 Varchar(8000))
Create Trigger Trigger_Table1 on Dbo.Table1 After Insert,Update,Delete
As Begin
If (Select Count(*)From Deleted)>0
Delete From Dbo.Table2 Where ID=(Select ID From Deleted)
If (Select Count(*)From Inserted)>0
Insert Dbo.Table2(ID, Name, Name1, Name2)
Select ID
,Dbo.Part(Name,1,Default)
,Dbo.Part(Name,2,Default)
,Dbo.Part(Name,3,Default)
From Inserted
End
Now, do your data manipulation (Insert, Update, Delete) on Table1, but do your Select statements on Table2 instead.
The below solution uses a recursive CTE for splitting the strings, and PIVOT for displaying the parts in their own columns.
WITH Table1 (id, name) AS (
SELECT 1, '1-aaa-14 milan road' UNION ALL
SELECT 2, '23-abcde-lsd road' UNION ALL
SELECT 3, '2-mnbvcx-welcoome street'
),
cutpositions AS (
SELECT
id, name,
rownum = 1,
startpos = 1,
nextdash = CHARINDEX('-', name + '-')
FROM Table1
UNION ALL
SELECT
id, name,
rownum + 1,
nextdash + 1,
CHARINDEX('-', name + '-', nextdash + 1)
FROM cutpositions c
WHERE nextdash < LEN(name)
)
SELECT
id,
[1] AS name,
[2] AS name1,
[3] AS name2
/* add more columns here */
FROM (
SELECT
id, rownum,
part = SUBSTRING(name, startpos, nextdash - startpos)
FROM cutpositions
) s
PIVOT ( MAX(part) FOR rownum IN ([1], [2], [3] /* extend the list here */) ) x
Without additional modifications this query can split names consisting of up to 100 parts (that's the default maximum recursion depth, which can be changed), but can only display no more than 3 of them. You can easily extend it to however many parts you want it to display, just follow the instructions in the comments.
select T.id,
substring(T.Name, 1, D1.Pos-1) as Name,
substring(T.Name, D1.Pos+1, D2.Pos-D1.Pos-1) as Name1,
substring(T.Name, D2.Pos+1, len(T.name)) as Name2
from Table1 as T
cross apply (select charindex('-', T.Name, 1)) as D1(Pos)
cross apply (select charindex('-', T.Name, D1.Pos+1)) as D2(Pos)
Testing performance of suggested solutions
Setup:
create table Table1
(
id int identity primary key,
Name varchar(50)
)
go
insert into Table1
select '1-aaa-14 milan road' union all
select '23-abcde-lsd road' union all
select '2-mnbvcx-welcoome street'
go 10000
Result:
if you always will have 2 dashes, you can do the following by using PARSENAME
--testing table
CREATE TABLE #test(id INT, NAME VARCHAR(1000))
INSERT #test VALUES(1, '1-aaa-14 milan road')
INSERT #test VALUES(2, '23-abcde-lsd road')
INSERT #test VALUES(3, '2-mnbvcx-welcoome street')
SELECT id,PARSENAME(name,3) AS name,
PARSENAME(name,2) AS name1,
PARSENAME(name,1)AS name2
FROM (
SELECT id,REPLACE(NAME,'-','.') NAME
FROM #test)x
if you have dots in the name column you have to first replace them and then replace them back to dots in the end
example, by using a tilde to substitute the dot
INSERT #test VALUES(3, '5-mnbvcx-welcoome street.')
SELECT id,REPLACE(PARSENAME(name,3),'~','.') AS name,
REPLACE(PARSENAME(name,2),'~','.') AS name1,
REPLACE(PARSENAME(name,1),'~','.') AS name2
FROM (
SELECT id,REPLACE(REPLACE(NAME,'.','~'),'-','.') NAME
FROM #test)x

T-SQL -- convert comma-delimited column into multiple columns

From the table below, how can I convert the Values column into multiple columns, populated with individual values that are currently separated by commas? Before the conversion:
Name Values
---- ------
John val,val2,val3
Peter val5,val7,val9,val14
Lesli val8,val34,val36,val65,val71,val
Amy val3,val5,val99
The result of the conversion should look like:
Name Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Col6
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
John val val2 val3
Peter val5 val7 val9 val14
Lesli val8 val34 val36 val65 val71 val
Amy val3 val5 val99
First, what database product and version are you using? If you are using SQL Server 2005 and later, you can write a Split user-defined function like so:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Split]
(
#DelimitedList nvarchar(max)
, #Delimiter varchar(2) = ','
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
With CorrectedList As
(
Select Case When Left(#DelimitedList, DataLength(#Delimiter)) <> #Delimiter Then #Delimiter Else '' End
+ #DelimitedList
+ Case When Right(#DelimitedList, DataLength(#Delimiter)) <> #Delimiter Then #Delimiter Else '' End
As List
, DataLength(#Delimiter) As DelimiterLen
)
, Numbers As
(
Select TOP (Coalesce(Len(#DelimitedList),1)) Row_Number() Over ( Order By c1.object_id ) As Value
From sys.objects As c1
Cross Join sys.columns As c2
)
Select CharIndex(#Delimiter, CL.list, N.Value) + CL.DelimiterLen As Position
, Substring (
CL.List
, CharIndex(#Delimiter, CL.list, N.Value) + CL.DelimiterLen
, CharIndex(#Delimiter, CL.list, N.Value + 1)
- ( CharIndex(#Delimiter, CL.list, N.Value) + CL.DelimiterLen )
) As Value
From CorrectedList As CL
Cross Join Numbers As N
Where N.Value < Len(CL.List)
And Substring(CL.List, N.Value, CL.DelimiterLen) = #Delimiter
)
You can then split out the values in you want using something akin to:
Select Name, Values
From Table1 As T1
Where Exists (
Select 1
From Table2 As T2
Cross Apply dbo.Split (T1.Values, ',') As T1Values
Cross Apply dbo.Split (T2.Values, ',') As T2Values
Where T2.Values.Value = T1Values.Value
And T1.Name = T2.Name
)
Here is a solution that uses a recursive cte to generate a "table of numbers" (courtesy of Itzik Ben-Gan), which is useful for all manner of problems including string splitting, and PIVOT. SQL Server 2005 onwards. Full table create, insert and select script included.
CREATE TABLE dbo.Table1
(
Name VARCHAR(30),
[Values] VARCHAR(128)
)
GO
INSERT INTO dbo.Table1 VALUES ('John', 'val,val2,val3')
INSERT INTO dbo.Table1 VALUES ('Peter', 'val5,val7,val9,val14')
INSERT INTO dbo.Table1 VALUES ('Lesli', 'val8,val34,val36,val65,val71,val')
INSERT INTO dbo.Table1 VALUES ('Amy', 'val3,val5,val99')
GO
SELECT * FROM dbo.Table1;
GO
WITH
L0 AS(SELECT 1 AS c UNION ALL SELECT 1),
L1 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM L0 AS A, L0 AS B),
L2 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM L1 AS A, L1 AS B),
L3 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM L2 AS A, L2 AS B),
Numbers AS(SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY c) AS n FROM L3)
SELECT Name, [1] AS Column1, [2] AS Column2, [3] AS Column3, [4] AS Column4, [5] AS Column5, [6] AS Column6, [7] AS Column7
FROM
(SELECT Name,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY Name ORDER BY nums.n) AS PositionInList,
LTRIM(RTRIM(SUBSTRING(valueTable.[Values], nums.n, charindex(N',', valueTable.[Values] + N',', nums.n) - nums.n))) AS [Value]
FROM Numbers AS nums INNER JOIN dbo.Table1 AS valueTable ON nums.n <= CONVERT(int, LEN(valueTable.[Values])) AND SUBSTRING(N',' + valueTable.[Values], n, 1) = N',') AS SourceTable
PIVOT
(
MAX([VALUE]) FOR PositionInList IN ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7])
) AS Table2
GO
--DROP TABLE dbo.Table1
Which converts this output
Name Values
