The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SQL in MS Query with Case Statements (Oracle SQL Server)

Asked by natdacruz in SQL Query Syntax, MS SQL Server, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags:

Hi can anyone check my SQL to see if its ok.

I had trouble gettin it to work with MS Query, and I have been forced to remove my parameters (apparently you can't have variable parameters with queries that cannot displayed in the design views... e.g. Case statements)

At the moment I do get data back, however the query pulls back all data as though they were the ELSE case...  '03MED' when I have checked and there is a fairly even distribution between all cases.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

SQL:

SELECT datename(month,disch_dttm)+'-'+datename(year,disch_dttm) AS 'Month',      

'Division' = case
when 'left(main_ident,3)' in('100','104','110','120','130','143','190')  then '01SURG'  
when 'left(main_ident,3)' in('142','170','171','180','420','421','501','502')  
then '02W&C'    
when 'left(main_ident,3)' in('101')
then '04NONCONTRACT'
else '03MED'
end,  
Count(*) AS ID  

FROM LOR_IPM.dbo.PROF_CARER_EPISODES PROF_CARER_EPISODES, LOR_IPM.dbo.PROVIDER_SPELLS PROVIDER_SPELLS, LOR_IPM.dbo.SPECIALTIES SPECIALTIES  WHERE PROVIDER_SPELLS.PRVSP_REFNO = PROF_CARER_EPISODES.PRVSP_REFNO AND SPECIALTIES.SPECT_REFNO = PROF_CARER_EPISODES.SPECT_REFNO AND SPECIALTIES.SPECT_REFNO = PROVIDER_SPELLS.SPECT_REFNO AND ((PROVIDER_SPELLS.ARCHV_FLAG='n') AND (PROVIDER_SPELLS.PRVSN_END_FLAG='n') AND (PROVIDER_SPELLS.DISCH_DTTM>={ts '2008-04-01 00:00:00'} And PROVIDER_SPELLS.DISCH_DTTM<={ts '2008-08-31 00:00:00'}) AND (PROF_CARER_EPISODES.ARCHV_FLAG='n'))  

GROUP BY datename(month,disch_dttm)+'-'+datename(year,disch_dttm)

ORDER BY datename(month,disch_dttm)+'-'+datename(year,disch_dttm)

Results:

Month                      Division         ID
April-2008      03MED      4782
August-2008      03MED      4153
July-2008                      03MED      4746
June-2008      03MED      4440
May-2008                      03MED      4560
