    Add an extra join condition so you only get a single occurrence:

    FROM Consumer

    WHERE ConsumerType = 'S') s ON p.ConsumerAccountID = s.ConsumerAccountID

    GilaMonster (8/24/2016)


    Filestream isn't a datatype. It's an attribute of a varbinary data type column. Bigint is definitely not considered as large object, it's a grand total of 16-bytes in size.

  • RE: @@ROWCOUNT when cascade delete?

    Afaik, there is no way to get that number back from SQL. In theory, SQL could have had to cascade thru a dozen tables (or more).

  • RE: Sql script to check that each patient has both a diastolic and a systolic blood pressure for each given service date

    DOH, sorry, typo on my part. Should be:

    values('DP'),('SP')

    [rather than values('DP','SP')]

    Edit: added bold to the parens I added to highlight them better.

  • RE: WHERE clause problem comparing 2 float values

    Floating point values are only approximate values rather than exact values. If you need to make an equals comparison, you need to use decimal values.

  • RE: sp_executesql and howto return rowcount

    Your variable in the code is named @Rcount. You need to use that name in the @params clause:

    EXEC sys.sp_executesql @stmt = @SQLstmt

    , @params = N'@Rcount INT OUTPUT'
