Those dates are billing dates...I need to find data between those dates to make sure they fall in that billing period...

Thanks!

It is an ugly query...I know

What I need to do is, for every year in the temp table, I need to add a filter to the query. For example, if...

It's just a simple search, like one or 2 search terms...for example "race car", or "gasoline", "volcano", "space shuttle", etc....nothing fancy like using ANDs, ORs, etc...

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this would work...does this use ASC or DESC?

Thanks!

Oh ok, I see, that makes sense

Thanks for all the help!

Oh ok, so I should just replace the cursors with statements like Imu92 suggested above? How would that work when I need to insert a new variable value into...

Here is one block of code containing multiple cursors.

/*Variable declarations*/

DECLARE @newpatientID uniqueidentifier

DECLARE @newfileID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @newLinkID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @fileID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @linkID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @tempprocedureID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER

DECLARE @parentfileID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @childfileID NVARCHAR(50)

DECLARE @orderID INT

DECLARE...

I think I misunderstood how cursors work...

I figured if I used a SELECT statement and ORDER BY clause with the cursor to populate tmpTable, that the table would appear in...

Using an order by clause on the newly populated table will not work because there is nothing unique about the data. That's why I was hoping the cursor...

Yeah, I did that...and the order was not the same.

I was under the impression that it would be...

Thanks!

But it didn't order the data according to my ORDER BY clause...that's why I'm confused.

When I run the cursor, and then check the table, it is not in...

Here is my table

/****** Object: Table [dbo].[XMLmodelMap] Script Date: 12/15/2009 10:55:21 ******/

SET ANSI_NULLS ON

GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

GO

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[XMLmodelMap](

[sessionID] [nvarchar](128) NOT NULL,

[oldModelID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,

[newModelID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT...

Well if I do this query:

it is in the order I need....

Oh Im sorry, for oldIp I actually meant something like this:

UPDATE myTable

SET linkURL = REPLACE(linkURL, '192.49.42.39', '192.49.21.44')

Hi guys, thanks for the suggestions!

Would something as simple as this work?

UPDATE myTable

SET linkURL = REPLACE(linkURL, 'oldIP', 'newIP')

Thanks!
