I believe it's quite simple and for multi column pivot it's the best solution. I know SQL Server MVP who prefers this case based syntax and never uses PIVOT syntax. PluralSight Learning Library

Use case based pivot instead of the regular Pivot. Check this blog post that explains it http://blogs.lessthandot.com/index.php/DataMgmt/DataDesign/understanding-sql-server-2000-pivot PluralSight Learning Library

Or check your MSDN thread where you got the same solution. PluralSight Learning Library

I think your code is OK, but you can also do: UPDATE LOAD SET ERR_F = 'W' OUTPUT INSERTED.*, 'G1', GETDATE(), COALESCE((SELECT top (1) EXC_X FROM ExceptionCode WHERE EXC_C = 'G1') + ' : ','') + ACCT, 1 INTO EXCEPTION WHERE CRIS_Code in ( SELECT...

;with cte as (select *, row_number() over (partition by item order by [Date] DESC) as rn from PricesInfo) select * from cte where Rn = 1 PluralSight Learning Library

You don't need to join back to CTE, you can UPDATE cte directly, e.g. UPDATE MaxCounter SET NewILandId = ILandId WHERE RowID = 1 PluralSight Learning Library

Exactly! The same suggestion has also been made in your MSDN forum's thread. PluralSight Learning Library

You will need to use a cursor to 'loop' through each row in a table. Take a look at this link with the similar concept http://www.sqlusa.com/bestpractices2005/importimage/ See also this link as how to use cursors the best way (the above sample does not use the proper keywords): The Truth about...

...(partition by i.ItemNumber, s.ItemDescription order by i.TransDate DESC) as Row , i.TransDate , i.Balance , i.StdCost , i.StdCost * i.Balance as TotalAmount From #Inventory i Inner Join #SelectedItems s On i.ItemNumber = s.ItemNumber Where '(' + RTrim(i.ItemNumber) +...

You will have to execute it dynamically by building the whole string and then executing it execute(@SQL). You need to double every single quote. PluralSight Learning Library

Your WHERE clause makes no sense. Do you only want to update one row with the Max date? If so, try: ;with cte as (select top (1) FileLoadDate, FileLoadStatus, CASE WHEN exists ( SELECT 1 FROM TestSubmission t WHERE t.Region <> @region OR t.SUB_TYPE <> @subType OR t.VENDOR_ID <> @vendorID...

Yes, most likely this is what the OP wanted. PluralSight Learning Library

May be: update SubmissionManagement SET FileLoadStatus = case when exists (SELECT 1 FROM TestSubmission t WHERE t.Region <> @region OR t.SUB_TYPE <> @subType OR t.VENDOR_ID <> @vendorID OR t.DELIVERY_TYPE <> @deliveryType OR t.DELIVERY_TYPE <> @deliveryMethod ) then 4 else 1 end...

SSMS is not really a GUI for editing tables. Perhaps you can simply write an UPDATE command PluralSight Learning Library

Yes, it does support it assuming that all necessary conditions are qualified. However, the behavior of the SELECT information from the view depends on the edition of SQL Server. There is an interesting quiz by Pinal Dave that explains the problem...

;with cte as (select *, row_number() over (partition by myWords order by ID) as Rn) delete from cte where Rn > 1 PluralSight Learning Library

May be you can create a bat file? Also, why do you need to do this from SQL Server? PluralSight Learning Library

I'll check without the spaces, but we already defined the format for our spreadsheet. I'll play with just one sheet and with the names without spaces just for the test. PluralSight Learning Library
