DATA MANIPULATION LANGUAGE IN SQL SERVER


DATA MANIPULATION LANGUAGE: This sub language concentrates on the values of a specific table. It includes the following statements.

  1. INSERT Statement
  2. SELECT Statement
  3. UPDATE Statement
  4. DELETE Statement

  1. INSERT Statement: This statement is used for inserting the values into a specific table.

Syntax to INSERT Statement:

 INSERT INTO TABLENAME [(columns list)] VALUES (VALUE1, VALUE2 …)

NOTE: While inserting the values into a specific table we should know that table definition (number of columns).

In the above syntax “columns list” optional part specifies that “List of columns for which user supplying the values”.

E.g1. INSERT INTO EMP VALUES (11, ‘RAM’, 15000, 10)

E.g2. INSERT INTO EMP VALUES (22, ‘RAJ’, 5000, 20)

E.g3. INSERT INTO EMP VALUES (33, ‘ANIL’, 10000, 10)

E.g4. INSERT INTO EMP VALUES (44, ‘ABIRAM’, 150000, 20)

E.g5. INSERT INTO EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, DEPTNO)
VALUES (55, ‘DP’, 10)

E.g6. INSERT INTO EMP (EMPNO, ENAME,SAL)
VALUES (66, ‘INDU’, 12000)


In the above example 5 user was unable to supply the value for SAL column, then user have to mention the columns list for which he can supply the values.

In the above example 6 user was unable to supply the value for DEPTNO column, then user have to mention the columns list for which he can supply the values.

Note: Whenever user unable to supply the values for any column then server will arrange an unpredictable or garbage value called NULL value. Null is different from zero and empty. We cannot compare null with any other values.

In the above E.g5 and E.g6 case SAL and DEPTNO column value will be given as  NULL.

2. SELECT Statement: This statement is used for retrieving the data from a specific table. It is also known as Data Retrieval Statement.

Syntax:
SELECT {*/ columns list} FROM TABLENAME

In the above syntax the symbol ‘* ‘displays all columns and their corresponding rows and the ‘columns list’ displays specific columns and their corresponding rows.

E.g.: SELECT * FROM EMP

The above statement displays all columns and their corresponding rows from EMP table it means whole EMP table will be displayed


Ex1: DISPLAYING THE DATA IN THE EMP TABLE:

SELECT * FROM EMP

EMPNO
ENAME
SAL
DEPTNO
11
RAM
15000
10
22
RAJ
5000
20
33
ANIL
10000
10
44
ABIRAM
15000
20
55
DP
NULL
10
66
INDU
12000
NULL



E.g.: SELECT EMPNO, ENAME FROM EMP

The above statement displays only EMPNO, ENAME columns and their rows from EMP table.

E.g.: SELECT SAL, DEPTNO FROM EMP

The above statement displays only SAL, DEPTNO columns and their rows from EMP table.

OPERATORS:
                              Arithmetic Operators: +, -, *, /, %
                              Relational Operators: <, >, <=, >=, =,! =,! <,! >
                              Logical Operators: AND, OR, NOT

Truth table for AND      Truth table for OR   Truth table for NOT


C1         C2           R         C1       C2       R         C         R


T            T              T          T          T          T          T          F
T            F              F          T          F          T          F          T         
F            T              F          F          T          T                                 
F            F              F          F          F          F

*C1: Condition 1
*C2: Condition 2
*R: Result

WHERE CLAUSE: This clause used for placing  a condition on a specific column of a specific table. It is associated with SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE statements.

Syntax:
SELECT {*/Columns list} FROM TABLENAME [WHERE Condition]



E.g.: Write a Query to select employ details who are working under 10th department

SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO=10

E.g.: Write a Query to select employ details who are earning salaries between 5000 and 25000

SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE SAL>5000 AND SAL<25000

E.g.: Write a Query to select employ details whose employ number is 22

SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO=22

E.g.: Write a Query to select employ details whose department is null

SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO IS NULL

Note: In the above example we used a special operator called IS operator , which used to compare NULL values.






3. UPDATE Statement: Update statement in SQL Server is used for modifying the data, which is available in a specific table.

Syntax:
UPDATE TABLENAME SET COLUMNNAME =NEWVALUE
                                                                       [, COLUMNNAME= NEWVALUE….]

E.g.: Write a Query to modify (increase) the salaries of all the employees in EMP table

UPDATE EMP SET SAL=SAL+1000

The above statement (modifies) increases all employees salaries by 10000
This type of updating operation is called HIGH LEVEL UPDATE operation.

E.g.: Write a Query to modify (increase) the salaries of all employees who are working under 10th department.

UPDATE EMP SET SAL=SAL+500 WHERE DEPTNO=10

Write a Query to modify the salary of an employ whose employ number 11 and who is working under 20th department

UPDATE EMP SET SAL= SAL+300 WHERE EMPNO=11 AND DEPTNO=20

CASE Statement: In SQL Server CASE statement is used for evaluating multiple conditions on a specific column. It is mostly associated with UPDATE statement.

Syntax: UPDATE TABLENAME SET COLUMN NAME= CASE
             WHEN CONDITION1 THEN RESULT1
             WHEN CONDITION2 THEN RESULT2
             ------ --------------------------- ------------ ----
            ---------- ---------------------- ------------- -----
            WHEN CONDITIONN THEN RESULTN
            [ELSE RESULT]
            END











E.g.: Write Query to arrange BONUS column values according to the following specification

            SAL                            BONUS
<=5000                        1000
>5000 and <=10000               2000
            >10000                        3000

            UPDATE EMP SET BONUS=CASE
            WHEN SAL<=5000 THEN 1000
            WHEN SAL>5000 AND SAL<=10000 THEN 2000
            WHEN SAL>10000 THEN 3000 (OR) ELSE 3000
END

The above statement arranges BONUS column values according to the salaries.

4. DELETE Statement: Delete statement is used to delete the data from a specific table in ROW-BY-ROW (one by one) manner with out disturbing its structure (columns).

Syntax:
DELETE FROM TABLE_NAME [WHERE (CONDITION)]

E.g.: DELETE FROM EMP

The statement deletes all records from EMP table with out disturbing its structure (columns). This is called high level deletion

E.g.: Write a Query to delete all employees who are working under 10th department

DELETE FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO=10

E.g.: Write a Query to delete all employ who is working under 20th department and employ number 33

DELETE FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO=20 AND EMPNO=33
