Is there a better way to do this import
I'm in the process of rebuilding one of our sites and part of that means
rationalising data and correcting mistakes that were made in the original
build. I've got a chunk of data that needs to be extracted and transformed,
then inserted into a new table in a new database. I'm currently using CF to
do the heavy lifting and so my first question is whether CF is best for
this or if I should try to do this with SQL queries. If the answer is 2 can
anyone point me in the right direction as to how I would go about doing
this in native SQL? Or is there a more efficient way to do this in CF?
Here's what the code currently looks like. Bear in mind that the citem
table contains over 90k rows so we're talking about a lot of data here.
!--- gets the old data the modX fields need merging into a new dbase
schema ---
cfquery datasource=#oldDSN# name=gtd
select id, mod, mod2, mod3, mod4
from citem
where active = 1
/cfquery
!--- Start looping through items ---
cfoutput query=gtd
!--- Get the new item ID from the new database ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN# name=getNewItemID
select id from items where oldid = '#gtd.id#'
/cfquery
!-- Merge the mod fields into a list ---
cfset topicList = ''
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod2#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod3#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod4#')
!--- Loop through the list ---
cfloop list=#topicList# index=t
!--- Assuming there's a value in the field do the insert into the new
database ---
cfif trim(t) NEQ '' and trim(t) NEQ '0'
!-- Get the value for the new topicid field ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN# name=getNewTopicID
select id from topics where oldid = '#t#'
/cfquery
!--- Insert the data into the new topiclinks table that will link topic
IDs and item IDs ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN#
insert into topiclinks
(topicid,itemid)
values
('#getNewTopicID.id#','#getNewItemID.id#')
/cfquery
!--- Increment a counter so I know how many rows were created ---
cfset numTopics = numTopics + 1
/cfif
/cfloop
/cfoutput

Re: Is there a better way to do this import
Thanks for the tip Cameron, I will definitely research SELECT INTO as suggested, all I was hoping for was a pointer like that. I have a lot of tables to transfer but not all require any massaging of the data so I might be able to use CF for some and SQL for the others.

No problem.

Re: Is there a way to do an arbitrary sort order on a specific cell?
Checking my syntax, but doesn't seem to work for a query of queries.. QoQ's are very limited. They do not support CASE statements, AFAIK. If you are using a database query as the source of this information, add a CASE statement to your base database query to generate a column called SortNumber. Then use that column for ordering. Alternatively, you could add a SortNumber column to your base table. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:333715 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Alternatively, you could add a SortNumber column to your base table. I wish it were that easy. The information is coming from a number of different sources - RSS feeds, a database or two - and being consolidated down into a single source In theory, I could add a new database table to the site in question, and populate it every X number of hours on a schedule, but that's not exactly how this is set up to function.

Well .. either way, you will have to change to something if the CASE values are not static. Be it a table, or a SQL query. However, if your base query is _not_ a database query, then you do not have many options, AFAIK. You are limited by the capabilities of QoQ's. It is either, add a sortNumber column and populate it row-by-row, or use a hack to simulate an OUTER join in QoQ's (tres ugly). ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:333717 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Is there a way to do this?
Hi, all... I'm using a dynamically populated select (multiple) allowing users to select one or more cities for which they'd like to view properties. When the form which contains the form is submitted, it submits back to the same page it's on. What I'd like to have happen in the select is for the first selection to appear at the top of the select choices. e.g. First Population of Select: - any city - Athens - Atlanta - Albany - Augusta - etc. User chooses Albany. Select reappears: - Albany - Augusta - etc. Any way to control this with CF or otherwise?

Re: Is there a way to do this?
something like:
select name=city
option value=#cityID#cfif form.city is cityID
selected=selected/cfif#city#/option
/select
you'll probably have to throw a cfparam name=form.city default=
/ out there for the initial form display.
getting the 2nd select to display the appropriate cities will be a
bit more work, and the answer will depend on how you're currently
doing it. If it's javascript, you'll need to invoke the javascript
function manually. something like:
cfif structKeyExists(form, 'city')
cfoutputscript
type=text/javascriptpopulateAreas('#form.city#');/script/cfoutput
/cfif
But the short answer is... yes. there is a way to do this :)

This can be done using JavaScript. You can Google for form manipulation code or check out something like jQuery which would make resorting or modifying the select box quite simple and wouldn't require a request to the server.

RE: Is there a way to do this?
Well... the cities that populate the multiple select are returned by a query that provides each distinct city name. So the cities are not in the db, and all I have to work with is the name of the city, itself. I could pull the selected cities out of the order and place them on top of the list, but I'd rather not do that, because it might confuse the user. I want the cities to stay in the same order as the query delivers them, but with the first selected city on the top. It would be nice if there were some attribute of the select option, like option value=#city# selected top#city#/option so I could have that option with top as an attribute scroll (not animate) to that point in the list as the first selection. I may have to use some jQuery and assign an id to each option dynamically, then have jQuery find the first selected option and somehow make the list scroll to that point. Thoughts?

RE: Is there a way to do this?
Whoa, that's a dandy little query! I see you've got from table... the cities are pulled from a properties table via select distinct city from properties I guess I could use a QoQ in place of the table as the datasource. However, you mentioned that your query would tack the prior cities onto the end and I would prefer to keep the selected cities in the order they are naturally and reduce the chance of confusing the user. It may be that the only way I can do this without jQuery would be to run a query that returns the names of the cities selected and then place them on top. Then run another query to get all the cities in order. (Which seems to be what your single query does, too, Greg). Usually, I put the selected item in a single select on top and then list the rest, including the selected item again after that.

I currently have three buttons on a page. Here is the code for one of the
buttons:
a href=javascript:;
onClick=MM_openBrWindow('dsp_updating_session_status_popup.cfm?jobid=#jobid#action=start','BookingStatusPopup','toolbar=yes,location=yes,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=650,height=450')img
src=images/icon_finish.gif border=0 alt=Click here when booking is
finished to finalise job/a
Basically I'm opening a popup window asking a user if they want to complete a
booking in a rstaurant table booking system. Ideally I would just like to be
able to display a message which says finalise a booking click yes/no etc and
then if yes was selected the booking status in the database would be set etc.
If no was selected then nothing happens.
I'm assuming that this would be possible and its probably simple I just cant
think.
Thanks in advance.

Re: What's the easiest way to do this?
Yes, this is a task well suited to AJAX. Perhaps look at AjaxCFC (the JQuery version) or mxAjax so that you get an integrated CF solution out of the box.

Re: What's the easiest way to do this?
Instead of using the mxselect use mxdata - this will let you pass in
each dropdown value as an argument to your CFC and get a return you
can use to build the last dropdown. Check my blog or the mxdata
example for some more details on mxdata. If you have more problems
with it let me know and I'll blog a solution.

Re: What's the easiest way to do this?
Thanks a ton james! Let me ask you something. I've spent quite a bit of time integrating qForms into this page to get the organization dropdowns talkin' to one another. http://208.106.220.252/soundings/T8Report.cfm It all works perfectly. Choose test eval 1 in the eval dropdown. Then Business Technologies Information technologies ITN. At that point you can click refresh and I'm just submitting that form to populate the course dropdown. So depending on what you select in those three dropdowns, the form submits and it runs a query of courses with those criterias. THAT's the part I'd like to sub out with Ajax. So to get to my question, do you think I can integrate CFAjax for this? And it won't affect my qForms? I'm hopin' it will, since the target course dropdown really isn't involved in the qForm calls.

Re: What's the easiest way to do this?
Ok James, I'm gettin close! I have it runnin the query when the page loads,
which is of course not what I want. But this tells me things are workin.
I've modified the example on your blog. Now, I'm REAL slow when it comes to JS,
so bear with me here.
Here's my JS call:
script language=javascript
var url = cfoutput#ajaxUrl#/cfoutput;
cfoutput
function init() {
new mxAjax.Data({
executeOnLoad:true,
paramArgs: new
mxAjax.Param(url,{param:eval=#FORM.eval#,T7=#FORM.Tier7#,T6=#FORM.Tier6#,
cffunction:getCourses}),
postFunction: handleData
});
function handleData(response) {
var myHTMLOutput = JSON.parse(response);
document.getElementById(myTargetSpan).innerHTML =
myHTMLOutput;
}
}
addOnLoadEvent(function() {init();});
/cfoutput
/script
I left executeonload to true because This script is wrapped with a cfif
anyway. It won't fire when the page loads, so I'm good to go there.
Here's the function I stuck in example.cfc:
cffunction name=getCourses output=true
cfargument name=eval
cfargument name=T7
cfargument name=T6
cfset var courseArray = ArrayNew(1)
cfset var getCourses =
cfquery datasource=#APPLICATION.dsn# name=getCourses
SELECT
SectionID,
Section,
evalid,
Title,
StudentID,
Course
FROM tblstudentcourses
!--- Get courses for the evaluation selected ---
WHERE evalid =
cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer value=#ARGUMENTS.eval#
!--- Filter courses according to any organizational filters submitted ---
cfif Len(ARGUMENTS.T7) AND ARGUMENTS.T7 NEQ All
AND orgtier7code =
cfqueryparam value=#ARGUMENTS.T7#
/cfif
cfif Len(ARGUMENTS.T6) AND ARGUMENTS.T6 NEQ All
AND orgtier6code =
cfqueryparam value=#ARGUMENTS.T6#
/cfif
/cfquery
cfsavecontent variable=showCourseMenu
select name=course
option value=AllAll/option
cfoutput query=getCourses
option value=#sectionid##section# - #title#/option
/cfoutput
/select
/cfsavecontent
cfreturn showCourseMenu
/cffunction
Up to this point, things are workin nicely. That menu pops right up when an
eval is chosen in the top dropdown - This is the coolest thing I've ever done!
Here's my trouble. How do I get it to fire off when any of those organization
filters are changed?
I already have an onChange in them for the qForms. Here's an example of Tier 7
(stripping out the conditional stuff for easier reading:
select name=Tier7
onChange=objForm.Tier6.populate(stcTiers[objForm.Tier7.getValue()], null,
null, stcBlank);
option value=AllAll/option
cfoutput query=get7OrgTiers group=orgtier7id
cfoutput group=orgtier7id
option value=#orgtier7code##orgtier7title#/option
/cfoutput
/select
How do you fire this thing off? Can it be appended to the onChange?
Thanks a ton james!

Then display it in a another dropdown filter. I know this has AJAX written all over it, but could somebody point me in the right direction?

Is there a better way to do this
First I would like to thank those of you who replied to my session time out issue without being condescending. I still am amazed that I actually posted that question and I feel totally stupid. LOL Now for my new issue. I have an edit form that I generate dynamically. There are a total of 10 rows and three columns in this form. What I am doing is, if there is a record in the table, I pre-fill however many rows that there are records in the database, and the rest of the rows are blank. I tried using if statements checking for data in each row, and if there is data show the pre-filled rows and then spit out the remainder of the rows with blank fields but everything I tried only produced the rows that had data and nothing else. Here is what I have. !--- Set the start of the second loop by finding out how many records there are, then add one to the number --- cfset newStartCount = (#listCommitteeMembersRet.RecordCount# + 1) !--- Loop through the records --- cfloop from=1 to=#listCommitteeMembersRet.recordCount# index=i tr cfoutput query=listCommitteeMembersRet maxrows=1 startrow=#i# input type=hidden name=EC_ID value=#listCommitteeMembersRet.EC_ID# / td width=200input type=text name=Name_#i# value=#Name# //td td width=125input type=text name=Phone_#i# value=#Phone# //td tdinput type=text name=Email_#i# value=#Email# //td /cfoutput /tr /cfloop !--- Start the next loop showing blank records but keeping the index incremental. --- cfloop from=#newStartCount# to=10 index=i tr cfoutput td width=200input type=text name=Name_#i# //td td width=125input type=text name=Phone_#i# //td tdinput type=text name=Email_#i# //td /cfoutput /tr /cfloop Surely there has to be a more elegant way of doing this? One thing that I noticed though. in the first loop, if I put to=10, then I get the X number of rows pre-filled, then I get the remainder of the rows output but no data like so: tr /tr tr /tr And so on until all 10 rows are complete. So I know that it is actually looping through the rows all 10 times, so there has to be a way to get the blank records to fill in these rows.

RE: Anyone know of a more elegant way to do this?
A regular expression would work out much better for this. Look for a single character at the end, if found, reReplace() to a new variable using a backreference to duplicate whatever letter is there already. I'd write the code for you but I'm too busy at the moment.

RE: Anyone know of a more elegant way to do this?
This doesnt take into account that you may reach ZZ will you actually have that many on one project? It seems like it would throw your whole numbering out of whack if so anyway. I definitely agree with Claude (Im sure you do too) but if you can manage to start with a new schema it would save a lot of future headache... like actually having 01000AA - 01000ZZ and needing another since the number seems to be more of a main project indicator and the letters revisions or changes/updates... anyway... This will increment the letters AA - AZ and roll AZ to BA.

RE: Anyone know of a more elegant way to do this?
Sorry, first one didnt come through I guess... here it is again This doesnt take into account that you may reach ZZ will you actually have that many on one project? It seems like it would throw your whole numbering out of whack if so anyway. I definitely agree with Claude (Im sure you do too) but if you can manage to start with a new schema it would save a lot of future headache... like actually having 01000AA - 01000ZZ and needing another since the number seems to be more of a main project indicator and the letters revisions or changes/updates... anyway... This will increment the letters AA - AZ and roll AZ to BA. It's by no means perfect either but it's not 1000 lines of code :) cfquery name=jobnum datasource=mydsn maxrows=1 select * from q order by jobid desc /cfquery cfset alpha = A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z cfset LastJobNumber = jobnum.jobnumber cfset FirstLetter = ucase(left(right(LastJobNumber, 2), 1)) cfset LastLetter = ucase(right(ucase(LastJobNumber), 1)) cfset NumberPrefix = rereplace(LastJobNumber, [^0-9], , ALL) cfif LastLetter is Z cfset NewLastLetter = A cfset IncrementFirst = true cfelse cfset LastLetterPosition = ListFind(alpha, LastLetter) cfset NewFirstLetter = FirstLetter cfset NewLastLetter = ListGetAt(alpha, LastLetterPosition+1) cfset IncrementFirst = false /cfif cfif IncrementFirst cfset FirstLetterPosition = ListFind(alpha, FirstLetter) cfset NewFirstLetter = ListGetAt(alpha, FirstLetterPosition+1) /cfif cfoutput#NumberPrefix##NewFirstLetter##newLastLetter#/cfoutput -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

RE: Anyone know of a more elegant way to do this?
Ok, so I'm bored today...
This one DOES take into account the ZZ scenario and increment the number
portion as well...
cfoutput#incProjNum(001000ZZ)#/cfoutput
Will spit out 001001AA
I dont know what Outlook or HoF is going to do to the formatting of this
but just paste it into a template and it should come out fine.
cfscript

{
alpha = A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z;

LastLetter = ucase(right(ucase(LastJobNumber), 1));
NumberPrefix = rereplace(LastJobNumber, [^0-9], , ALL);

RE: cfprocparam - easier way to do this?
I am wondering if there is a more efficient way to do this. I want to be able to blindly pass in my vars to a stored procedure, and let SQL determine if a NULL is required or not.

RE: Is there a good way to do this?
I haven't tried it, so take this with a grain or three of salt, but 2 things stand out: 1) Start x at 1, not 0, and 2) You probably have to use the Evaluate() function around the i[x] bit as in: replace(Evaluate(getreg.#i#[#x#]),', '',all) Again, untested. This should work, but is probably not the best way to handle it. The # around x in this string aren't necessary, in other words evaluate(getreg.#i#[x]) would also work... x however is a duplication of the getreg.currentrow variable, so all the stuff to manipulate x can go away... and you can use array notation for both dimension of the query which makes the evaluate() unnecessary overhead, so getreg[i][currentrow] also works. hth s. isaac dealey972-490-6624 new epoch http://www.turnkey.to lead architect, tapestry cms http://products.turnkey.to tapestry api is opensource http://www.turnkey.to/tapi certified advanced coldfusion 5 developer http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?ID=21816 ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

RE: Is there a good way to do this?
One word - CFSCRIPT Why? Speed and WhiteSpace I know CFMX levels the speed between CF tags and CFSCRIPT but it's easier to read and easier if the code is running on CF5 and CFMX As for WhiteSpace, I know that CFSETTING can get rid of that, but most people tend to not use it... Ahh... Whitespace I'd agree with... I was under the impression that differences in speed between cfscript and tags had been debunked in CF5. Personally I don't find cfscript any easier to read. s. isaac dealey972-490-6624 new epoch http://www.turnkey.to lead architect, tapestry cms http://products.turnkey.to tapestry api is opensource http://www.turnkey.to/tapi certified advanced coldfusion 5 developer http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?ID=21816 ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.

Is there a Better Way to do this?
Ok here is what i am doing and I am just trying to find out if 1. there is a better way and 2. if it can be done on the SQL side (as a stored proc) instaed of the CF side. Just not all that familiar with looping outside of CF. ANyway I have one table that is a dictionary with about 1500 words. THen I have another table that has dreams people have entered. THe idea is to take the list of words and see if any of them show up in the dream and then display those words to the user. What I built works and it's actually pretty speedy, but the dictionary is very small right now and it may be closer to 1 by the time we are done which is a MUCH larger list of words to loop through. So right now I am doing a query to get the words CFQUERY name=wordS SELECT word from dictionary /CFQUERY THen we grab a dream CFQUERY name=dream SELECT dream from dreams where dream_id = 3 /CFQUERY Then I Loop through like so: CFLOOP list=#valuelist(words.word)# delimiters=, index=theword Then I check to see if the dream contains the word. CFIF dream.dream contains #theword# OR dream.dream contains #theword#s Then I grab the definition if it found that word. CFQUERY name=getdef SELECT definition from dictionary where word = '#theword#' /CFQUERY Then I display it #theword#BR#getdef.definition#P /CFIF /CFLOOP This words fine and with a dream thats a few thousand words it completes in a few seconds. I just wonder if there is a faster or better way to do this so down the road we don't run into problems as the word list grows.

RE: Is there a Better Way to do this?
I'm not a SQL wizard and am doing this off the top of my head, but I'd try
something along the lines of
select word from dictionary where
(select dream from dreams where dream_id = #dreamid#)
like ('%' + word + '%')
But, again, that's off the top of my head.

RE: Is there a Better Way to do this?
I did this for an FAQ not long ago... something like this worked for me
select dictionary.word
from dictionary
inner join dreams on
dreams.dream like '%' + dictionary.word + '%'
order by dictionary.word
In the case of my faq the user was entering another question and the text of
the question was compared against the dictionary and then again compared to
other questions, so if you've got someone entering a new dream, you could
put this in a stored procedure like
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_DreamNewLookup
@txt_dream nvarchar(8000)
AS
select dictionary.word, dreams.dream from dictionary
inner join dreams on dreams.dream like '%' + dictionary.word + '%'
where @txt_dream like '%' + dictionary.word + '%'
order by dictionary.word

If you pound the word like that, won't you get whatever is stored in a cf
variable named 'word' instead of the contents of the word column from the
outer select? Or am I missing something?

What you mean is :

: : better way and 2. if it can be done on the SQL side
(as
: a stored proc)
: : instaed of the CF side. Just not all that familiar
with
: looping
: : outside of
: : CF.
: :
: : ANyway I have one table that is a dictionary with
about
: 1500
: : words. THen I
: : have another table that has dreams people have
entered.
: THe idea
: : is to take
: : the list of words and see if any of them show up in
the
: dream and then
: : display those words to the user. What I built works
and
: it's
: : actually pretty
: : speedy, but the dictionary is very small right now
and
: it may be
: : closer to
: : 1 by the time we are done which is a MUCH larger
: list of
: : words to loop
: : through.
: :
: : So right now I am doing a query to get the words
: : CFQUERY name=wordS
: : SELECT word
: : from dictionary
: : /CFQUERY
: :
: : THen we grab a dream
: : CFQUERY name=dream
: : SELECT dream
: : from dreams
: : where dream_id = 3
: : /CFQUERY
: :
: : Then I Loop through like so:
: : CFLOOP list=#valuelist(words.word)#
delimiters=,
: index=theword
: : Then I check to see if the dream contains the word.
: : CFIF dream.dream contains #theword# OR
dream.dream
: contains
: : #theword#s
: : Then I grab the definition if it found that word.
: : CFQUERY name=getdef
: : SELECT definition from dictionary
: : where word = '#theword#'
: : /CFQUERY
: : Then I display it
#theword#BR#getdef.definition#P
: : /CFIF
: : /CFLOOP
: :
: : This words fine and with a dream thats a few
thousand
: words it
: : completes in
: : a few seconds. I just wonder if there is a faster
or
: better way
: : to do this
: : so down the road we don't run into problems as the
word
: list grows.
: : THoughts?

Re: Is there a Better Way to do this?
I'm not a SQL wizard and am doing this off the top of my
head, but I'd try
something along the lines of
select word from dictionary where
(select dream from dreams where dream_id = #dreamid#)
like ('%' + word + '%')
But, again, that's off the top of my head.
What you mean is :
SELECT dictionary.word, dictionary.definition
FROM dictionary LEFT JOIN dream
ON dreams.dream LIKE '%' + dictionary.word + '%'
Which is what Isaac's got in his stored proc... ;o)
Accept that if you left join dream, you'll get every word from the
dictionary -- I was under the impression ( possibly mistaken ) he was
looking for only words appearing in the dream text ...

Re: Is there a Better Way to do this?
No you were correct I only want to pull the dictionary words that were found
in the dream. The code you gave me worked great the only issue i see now for
example let's say the word is FEEL then it pulls EEL out of the dictionary.
IS there a way to avoid that?

RE: Is there a Better Way to do this?
Quick guess, change
like ('%' + word + '%')
to
like (word)
