This is ugly but it looks like it gives you what you want.:

select a.empid, a.start_date_time, a.end_date_time

from

 table_a a

inner join (

select orig.*, datediff(dd, orig.end_date_time, x.min_start_date) as day_diff, dateadd(dd, datediff(dd, orig.end_date_time, x.min_start_date), orig.end_date_time...

quick question, you said the following:

The first row END DATE TIME = 01/04/2006

The second row START DATE TIME = 01/07/2006

In SSIS there is a Transfer SQL Server Objects task that will allow you to copy over database objects. In there, you see the option for Copy All Views or...

without knowing your data, this query may get you what you want:

SELECT ItemId, year, AvgCost

 FROM         dbo.tblItemAvgCost

 WHERE     (AvgCost <> 0)

 and year = (select max(year) from dbo.tblItemAvgCost where avgcost<>0)

sure, reset your sql string to each of the new queries that you want to execute and then update your temp table with the execution for each piece OR create...

what sql is reading is the literal value of @column_name and checking to see if that is null or '' and i take it that is not what you want....

your issue in the script is that the blank quantity var will only either be 1 or 0 and that is based upon the @column_name being null or <> '', which...
