Perhaps this would help
(Status=true AND Response=false and @State=1) or (Status=false AND UserId>@Number and @State=2)

hi all
i need to have a query that will retrieve two rows from one table
for example :
one table has two foreign key from one table
ROWs of Tbl1
------
1) ID
2) UserId1
3) UserId2
what should i do?
select
[User].[FirstName],
[User].[LastName],
[User].[FirstName],
[User].[LastName]
From
Tbl1 Join User on [UserId1]=[User].[Id] or [UserId2]=[User].[Id];
please help me immediately

Join your User table 2 times 1 for UserID1 other for UserId2
Join User as b on [UserId1]=[b].[Id]
Join User as c on [UserId1]=[c].[Id]

hello all
i am working on one of my assignment about sql win app. with stored procedure.and there is two different tables with ralation to PlotID so it's working fine. now only problem is this application must have functionality to add multiple customer names with related land plot.
At the moment i can add one name and one land plot
i mean if i add some details about land plot and name of customer then it works fine but now i need to create functionality to add multiple customer name with same land plot bueause one land plot may have multiple owners.
this is my insert sp
so one of my friend said you can use multiple parameters to add multiple names but what if i need to add 3 or 4 names
so this is what i have done according to my friend and this is also working fine.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.InsertNew
(
@FirstName nvarchar(25),
@LastName nvarchar(25),
@FirstName2 nvarchar(25),
@LastName2 nvarchar(25),
@Village nvarchar(25),
@District nvarchar(25)
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @PlotID int
INSERT INTO PlotDetails (Village,District)
VALUES (@Village, @District)
SELECT @PlotID=SCOPE_IDENTITY()
INSERT INTO CustomerDetails ([FirstName], [LastName],[PlotID])
(SELECT @FirstName, @LastName, @PlotID)
UNION ALL
(SELECT @FirstName2, @LastName2, @PlotID)
RETURN
and this is vb for insert record
Private Sub InsertNew()
Try
Comm = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("InsertNew", LetsGo.AndGetConnection)
Comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Comm.CommandText = "InsertNew"
Comm.Parameters.Add("@Village", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString
Comm.Parameters.Add("@District", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox2.SelectedItem.ToString
Comm.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = TextBox1.Text
Comm.Parameters.Add("@LastName", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = TextBox2.Text
Comm.Parameters.Add("@FirstName2", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = FirstName2.Text
Comm.Parameters.Add("@LastName2", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = LastName2.Text
Comm.ExecuteNonQuery()
Conn.Close()
MsgBox("Item Saved")
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
so is there any other way to do this i mean loop in sql?
waiting for your kind help
thanks

Try this
Break your InsertNew into two SPs. One for PlotDetails with @Village and @District parameter and save into PlotDetails table. Create a second SP to save CustomerDetails as
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.InsertNewCustomerDetails
(
@FirstName nvarchar(25),
@LastName nvarchar(25),
@PlotID int
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
IF @PlotID IS NULL BEGIN
SELECT @PlotID=SCOPE_IDENTITY()
END
INSERT INTO CustomerDetails ([FirstName], [LastName],[PlotID])
(SELECT @FirstName, @LastName, @PlotID)
SELECT @PlotID AS PLOTID
Now in your vb code send Null as plotid for the first time and use the same plotid generated in first time next.

hello
thanks for your rep.
ok but is this going to loop in sql quary?
for adding multiple names this is what i have done
Private Sub GetNewName()
AddName.Add(TextBox1.Text)
AddName.ToArray()
End Sub
so with this i can add one name or 100 names and i have debug this code and it's looks fine but only thing is how can i insert all this name from array to database
so in that case i have to loop while i am inserting
so this is i have done for insert
Comm = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("InsertNew", LetsGo.AndGetConnection)
Comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Comm.CommandText = "InsertNew"
Comm.Parameters.Add("@Village", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString
Comm.Parameters.Add("@District", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox2.SelectedItem.ToString
For I As Integer = 0 To AddName.Count
Comm.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = AddName(I)
Next
Comm.ExecuteNonQuery()
Conn.Close()
MsgBox("Item Saved")
and it looping through all the name i have entered but at last it shows error
error "Index was out of range. must be non-negative and less then the size of the collection parameter name index"
waiting for your kind help

Not this way.
First Execute
Comm = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("InsertNewPlot", LetsGo.AndGetConnection)
Comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Comm.Parameters.Add("@Village", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString
Comm.Parameters.Add("@District", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = ComboBox2.SelectedItem.ToString
to Insert Plot where InsertNewPlot is the first SP to insert plot
then something like this
Dim iPlotID as integer
For I As Integer = 0 To AddName.Count
Comm = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("InsertNewCustomerDetails", LetsGo.AndGetConnection)
Comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Comm.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = AddName(I)
Comm.Parameters.Add("@PlotId", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = iPlotID
Dim da As SqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(Comm)
da.Fill(ds)
iPlotID = ds.Tables(0).Rows(0)("PLOTID")
Next

I am just sitting here running some manual queries against some DB tables and thought that it would be GREAT if we could get a token that somehow meant the reverse of what * means in a select query.
SELECT * FROM [TableName]
Gets us ALL the columns, so if we want to grab a majority, but just skim off a few we need to enter in all of them leaving off the few we don't want.
Why not allow us to do something like this?
SELECT * EXCLUDE FieldName1, ... FROM [TableName]
This seems much cleaner to me. Oh yeah, and it is less typing.
I know, I should be using a tool that allows me to do my queries in a GUI and then it would just be drag and drop to get the columns I want, but we don't always have that luxury. It seems to me that the intent would be much more explicit to the DB engine and thus provide better optimization also.

You know, you ain't getting that 
Generally speaking it is better to list all your columns instead of using SELECT *. It does not have to do unneccessery lookup and your contract is fixed. You know what you will be getting. So, one disadvantage of
SELECT * EXCLUDE col1, col2 FROM tableName
is that, it will be forced to do a lookup then remove, Again, much efficient to list all the columns.

Why not write a query that returns all fieldnames ex the ones you specify, and copy/paste the result into your script? 
(Second hint, you could automate that task if it's important enough to spend time on)

Use Red-Gate sql prompt, type
ssf [tab] expands to
Select *
From
type the table name, press up arrow and then [tab], all column name are placed in a list, remove the offending column.
With the amount of time I spent in SSMS my fingers have this in memory.

I have a problem getting the right data from the database.
I have two tables named "Category" and "Items". Under one category, there can be multiple items.
table for category looks like:
catagory_ID | catagory_Name | catagory_Description
and the table for item looks like:
item_ID | cat_ID | item_Name | item_Description
Here category_ID and item_ID are unique keys and cat_ID is the foreign key which is the category_ID.
now i want the query which gives the list of data under typical category in the list format.
e.g if Book is the category Name and book_name1,book_name2,book_name3 are the items under category, it should look like
Book
book_name1
book_name2
book_name3
how to do that? Well i can get something like this:
Book book_name1
Book book_name2
Book book_name3
but I want the category just once in the output..what should be the query for that ??

You will need to use a report builder of some sort. Crystal reports comes to mind, but there are others.

This type of FORMATTING of the data is not done in the database it needs to be done in the presentation layer, as dj suggested.

Hi All,
I currently have a problem with two tables in SQL Server 2005. The tables have grown very large and sometimes lock up when small amounts of data are requested from them. The current record count is 9731495(PrintMedia) on the one table and 4126084(PrintArticles) on the other one. Table names: PrintArticles and PrintMedia. Whats worse is that these two tables are joined on each other in sql queries. This is because the database is non-relational. So joins are used to substitute for foreign keys. The performance needs to be improved. The SQL server version is 2005 standard edition - So partitioning is not possible 
Here is a breakdown of the Tables with their fields, types and Max sizes:
PrintArticles:
Analysis int NULL
width float NULL
height float NULL
ArtSize float NULL
ID (PK) int NULL
Cutting text 2147483647 -This field contains on average 3000 characters
CutID int NULL
NewbaseNo varchar 20
AnalysisApplic int NULL
AnalysisUser nvarchar 50
Translations ntext 1073741823
AnalysisApplicDate datetime NULL
AnalysisApplicTime nvarchar 5
PerTranslation text 2147483647
PerTranslated int NULL
This table also has 3 indexes: 1 clustered on the PK and 2 non clustered
PrintMedia
PrintID (PK) int NULL
CuttID int NULL
Graphic int NULL
FpageSection int NULL
Caption varchar 1000
PDFPath varchar 300
Branch varchar 30
UploadTime varchar 10
AnalysisTag varchar 500
UserID varchar 30
Modifier varchar 30
DateModified varchar 10
PubID int NULL
NewBaseArticleNo varchar 20
Edition varchar 800
IS_HardCopy int NULL
Seen_by varchar 300
DTPDate varchar 10
ColourPDF int NULL
SpokesPerson varchar 200
Mention varchar 200
NLPU int NULL
Server varchar 10
Repl text 2147483647
GroupID int NULL
ArticleID int NULL
PubDate 5 varchar 10
CreatedDate varchar 10
Publication varchar 200
SubPublication varchar 200
Headline varchar 800
SubHeadline varchar 800
Journalist varchar 500
SubJournalist varchar 500
Page varchar 20
Client varchar 50
Category varchar 200
CategoryValue varchar 200
CategoryDisplayName varchar 200
OrderID varchar 5
TagID varchar 5
Language varchar 20
Section varchar 200
CCM real NULL
SizeX real NULL
SizeY real NULL
RandValue real NULL
FrontPageCover int NULL
This table has 12 non clustered indexes
I have to restart the sql server service at least once a day to remove locks. If that fails I have to reorganize the indexes or rebuild them to get the tables working again.
The previous developers wrote applications that use adhoc queries. The normal CRUD and the tables worked fine. But scalability was not considered it seems. Will it help if I modify all the select statements in these apps to not have locks eg "select [columns] from [tablename] with (nolock) where..."?. I just need these tables to perform faster and not lock up.
Plz advise.
