SQL Queries:-

1. JOIN Queries (used to view records from more than one file)
(a). Join or inner join [both are same]
Select * from epf a join cpf b on a.name = b.name
Select * from epf a inner join apf b on a.name = b.name
it will show common records of both file matched on the basis of joined field(name here)

(b). Left Join [it will show all records of first file and only matching records of second file)
Select * from epf a left join cpf b on a.name = b.name

(c). Right Join [it will show all records of second file and only matching records of 1st file)
Select * from epf a right join cpf b on a.name = b.name

(d). Full join (Shows all records of both file in exact matching order)
Select * from epf a full join cpf b on a.name = b.name

(e). Exception join (shows all uncommon records of 1st file only)
Select * from cpf a exception join epf b on a.name = b.name

(f). Select * from cpf a right exception join epf b on a.name = b.name
It will show uncommon records of second file.

Note: - Exception join and left exception join are same, right exception file will show all uncommon records
of second file. In Above examples EPF and CPF are physical files.

2. Substring Query
Select substr(name,1,5) from emp
It will show only initial five characters of name field.

SELECT empname, length(rtrim(EMPNAME)) FROM LCOTTK/TEST1 – length is used to find length of field

3. Showing field record in Lower and upper case:-


Select lcase(name) from emp
SELECT statement run complete.
Select ucase(name) from emp
SELECT statement run complete.

4. Concatenated results:
SELECT name, skill1 || ' ' || skill2 || '' || skill3 FROM emp
SELECT name, trim(skill1) || ',' || trim(skill2) || ',' || trim(skill3) FROM emp

5. Creating a table like another table:


create table ROHAN like emp
Table ROHAN in QGPL created

Sensitivity: Internal & Restricted


6. How to see only distinct records and not duplicate one:
Select distinct * from afl

7. How to see maximum or minimum value record:


Select max(age) from emp
Select min(age) from emp

8. How to see only 4 or 5 or 6 rows from a file – by using this type of query we can find second or third
highest record similarly second or third or fourth lowest recod
Select * from afl fetch first 4 rows only

9. How to fetch records in between a particular window


SELECT * FROM AFL WHERE AGE between 20 and 26

10. To show all records in descending orders


SELECT * FROM afl ORDER BY name desc

11. For Selecting only few records basis of any field


Select * from afl where age in (23, 25, 26)

12. To find third maximum record in any file


Select * from afl where age in(
Select min(age) from afl where age in (Select age from afl group by
age order by age desc fetch first 3 rows only))

13. To find and delete duplicate records by single query

SELECT * FROM AFL F1 WHERE RRN(F1) > (SELECT MIN(RRN(F2)) FROM AFL
F2 WHERE F1. NAME = F2.NAME)

DELETE FROM AFL F1 WHERE RRN(F1) > (SELECT MIN(RRN(F2)) FROM AFL
F2 WHERE F1. NAME = F2.NAME)

13a. Creating alias for any field

SELECT CustomerName AS Customer, ContactName AS Contact_Person


FROM Customers;

Sensitivity: Internal & Restricted


14. Finding specific records using %like
a. Select * from csi21232/apf where name like '%Abhi%'

b. Second position of field is ‘o’


SELECT * FROM Customers where City like "_o%"

c. Starts with a and ends with o


SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE ContactName LIKE 'a%o';

d. Starting with a
SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerName LIKE 'a%';

e. Does not start with a


SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerName NOT LIKE 'a%';

f. ‘or’ at any position


SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerName LIKE '%or%'

g. ending with a
SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerName LIKE '%a';

15. View records by using RRN no


Select rrn(alias), alias.* from pf2 alias or
Select rrn(a),a.* from Library/pf2 a

here pf2 is file name, a is alias only

17. To find out sum of records with reference to a specific field:-


(a) SELECT NAME, SUM(AGE) FROM PF5 GROUP BY NAME

More precise result:-
(b) SELECT NAME, SUM(AGE) FROM PF5 GROUP BY NAME HAVING count(*)>1

18. Restricting any field on first place at the time of records fetching: -
Select name, a.* from cpf a
