SQL statement for a report...

[The Eeediot]

Hello, SQL gurus!

This message use HTML tables (in case you see a bunch of gobbledy-gook).

I need to modify an SQL statement:

SELECT DISTINCT Trim(InvtID)+', '+Trim(Descr) AS Item, month, Sum(QtyShip) AS Qty
FROM Sales_View
GROUP BY Trim(InvtID)+', '+Trim(Descr), month, CustID
HAVING (CustID)= @CustID )
ORDER BY Trim(InvtID)+', '+Trim(Descr), month;

Whose output is something like the following:

Item
month
Qty

FebQty = SUM(CASE month WHEN 2 THEN QtyShip ELSE 0 END),
....
DecQty = SUM(CASE month WHEN 12 THEN QtyShip ELSE 0 END),

I'm not really sure why have the condition on CustID in a HAVING clause.
Why isn't in the WHERE clause?

Thanks for the tip!

The HAVING claused is used in conjuction with GROUP BY. It is used to
organize column data with aggregate functions...so says the manual!

I used MS Access to create the SQL statement.

Okay, I feel stupid.

I found a way to get a similar result by using (you guessed it) a Crosstab Query! And this was right in MS Access, too.

The resulting SQL statement being...

TRANSFORM Sum(Sales_View.QtyShip) AS [The Value]
SELECT Trim([InvtID])+', '+Trim([Descr]) AS Item
FROM Sales_View
WHERE (((Sales_View.CustID)='100070') AND ((Sales_View.Year)=2003))
GROUP BY Trim([InvtID])+', '+Trim([Descr])
PIVOT Sales_View.month;

Careful. This may be a performance nightmare. Sounds like you are using MS Access with linked tables. On small databases this may be acceptable but as the data grows, the functions that access performs on the backend usually become detrimental to performance. A cross tab in access is probably going to do one of two things. Either submit a cross join on the backend or pull multiple result sets down and do the joining on the front end. Both are very inefficient.

As you can tell I'm not a big fan of using MS Access against SQL Server unless you use SQL pass through and write custom SQL.
