As you can see in the print screen above, I am wondering, if it is possible to check if there is one thing in two tables at once. Without making 2 queries. I need to look, if "fajne-to-jest" is in table1 or table2. I'm doing it in 2 queries... but question is, is it possible to check this information using one query? Mabye something else? Most efficent way? The best way?
You can use exists
in the select
:
select (exists (select 1 from table1 where url = 'fajne-to-jest')) as in_table1,
(exists (select 1 from table2 where url = 'fajne-to-jest')) as in_table2;
Try UNION ALL to fetch data to two different tables
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE url = 'fajne-to-jest'
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM table2 WHERE url = 'fajne-to-jest'
Please try the below script:
DECLARE @SearchStr nvarchar(100)
SET @SearchStr = '%test%'
DECLARE @Results TABLE( TableName nvarchar(256), ColumnName nvarchar(370), ColumnValue nvarchar(3630))
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @TableName nvarchar(256), @ColumnName nvarchar(128), @SearchStr2 nvarchar(110)
SET @TableName = ''
SET @SearchStr2 = QUOTENAME('%' + @SearchStr + '%','''')
WHILE @TableName IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
SET @ColumnName = ''
SET @TableName =
(
SELECT MIN(QUOTENAME(TABLE_SCHEMA) + '.' + QUOTENAME(TABLE_NAME))
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'
AND QUOTENAME(TABLE_SCHEMA) + '.' + QUOTENAME(TABLE_NAME) > @TableName
AND OBJECTPROPERTY(
OBJECT_ID(
QUOTENAME(TABLE_SCHEMA) + '.' + QUOTENAME(TABLE_NAME)
), 'IsMSShipped'
) = 0
)
WHILE (@TableName IS NOT NULL) AND (@ColumnName IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @ColumnName =
(
SELECT MIN(QUOTENAME(COLUMN_NAME))
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = PARSENAME(@TableName, 2)
AND TABLE_NAME = PARSENAME(@TableName, 1)
AND DATA_TYPE IN ('char', 'varchar', 'nchar', 'nvarchar')
AND QUOTENAME(COLUMN_NAME) > @ColumnName
)
IF @ColumnName IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @Results
EXEC
(
'SELECT DISTINCT ''' + @TableName + ''',''' + @ColumnName + ''', LEFT(' + @ColumnName + ', 3630)
FROM ' + @TableName + ' (NOLOCK) ' +
' WHERE ' + @ColumnName + ' LIKE ' + @SearchStr2
)
END
END
END
SELECT TableName, ColumnName, ColumnValue
FROM @Results
Put your search string in "@SearchStr". I got this from this portal itself.
