Multiple where clause help please

Hello,
What is wrong with this query? There are no messages other than (0 row(s)
affected).
The criteria 5 and 16 does exist.
UPDATE articles
SET DEPART_REF = '19'
where ARTICLE_PARENT_ID = '5' or ARTICLE_PARENT_ID = '16'
Thanks in advance from a sql newbie
JakeNevermind, I am asking for the wrong fields in the where clause!

Multiple updates on multiple conditions?

Hi,

I'm looking for a way, if possible, to update a field to different values based on different criteria. For example, Field X should be A if condition 1 is true, it should be B if condition 2 is true, etc. I'm not sure if there's a way to use a CASE in an UPDATE statement?

Thanks

Maybe something like:

update urTable
set X = case when condition_1 = target1 then A
when condition_2 = target2 then B
else C
end
where filterColumn = someCondition

Multiple Sorting

Hello All!
My report has columns Date, Year, Model, Cost, Color
I have users that will require the abililty to sort by multiple criteria.
Is it possible to configure a primary AND secondary AND maybe a THIRD sort
in Reporting Services?
For example: Sort the above columns as: Date, Model and Cost at the same
time?
This sorting criteri will change based on the user and the info sought. So
another user may want to
sort on Cost and Year, while another person wants Color,Cost, Year etc..
Currently, as far as I know, Reporting Services limits one to one column
sort at a time in a report.
Thanks in advance !

By default, all of your objects will be populated in the order of the
data in the DataSet. You can define this with a ORDER BY clause in
your SQL.
But, you can create Sort rules by object in your Report. Go to your
Table Properties, then the Sort tab, and you can add multiple sorting
rules to your table. Each rule is applied in sequence, with an
Ascending or Descending. Note that the sorting value is actually an
Expression, which means you can make it dynamic with a little code.
For your problem, what I would do is create a Parameter called
SortRules, make it a Integer, then define Available values as:
"Date, Model, Cost", 1
"Cost, Year", 2
"Color, Cost, Year", 3
etc
Then, in your table, add three Sort rules, each Ascending
Rule 1:
= IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 1, Fields!Date.Value,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 2, Fields!Cost.Value,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 3, Fields!Color.Value,
Nothing ) ) )
Rule 2:
= IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 1, Fields!Model.Value,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 2, Fields!Year.Value,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 3, Fields!Cost.Value,
Nothing ) ) )
Rule 3:
= IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 1, Fields!Cost.Value,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 2, Nothing,
IIF( Parameters!SortRules.Value = 3, Fields!Year.Value,
Nothing ) ) )
Now, when the user views the report, they will get a Parameter Prompt
at the top to select a sort method, then after choosing one and
hitting the View Report, the table will sort based on that method.

Multiple Search Criteria using FREETEXTTABLE function

Hi,

How would one allow for possible multiple search criteria using FREETEXTTABLE. For example, my table "listings" has a full-text search catalog, and I may want to:

SELECT * FROM listings WHERE name LIKE @.name AND city LIKE @.city

I've got it working to select only by name:

SELECT listing_id, RANK, name, address, city, zip, heading, phone
FROM listings a,
FREETEXTTABLE(listings, name, 'FormsOf(INFLECTIONAL, taxes accounting') b
WHERE [KEY] = a.listing_id
ORDER BY RANK DESC, name

How would I modify this query to also search for @.city from the city column?

Thanks!
