Can you only use one Select command w/SqlDataSource - asp.net

This is a pretty simple question that I haven't been able to find an answer for. Is it possible to have two separate SELECT commands (from the same table) in the same SqlDataSource command to populate two different cells in a given GridView?
I haven't been able to find current information so far.
::EDIT::
The challenge is that I'm attempting to manupulate one cell with a COUNT command and the second cell with a numerical grand total from the same information.

You can Combine results from two separate SELECT Statements by doing something like this..
SELECT X.A , Y.B
FROM (SELECT Column1 AS A FROM TableName) X, (SELECT Column2 AS B FROM TableName) Y

How can I save row numbers to a table in SQLite?

I have added row numbers to a table (merged) thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Pclass) RowNum, *
FROM merged;
Which returns:
1|1|0|58|0|0|146.5208|0|20|0|1|1|0.53043592
2|1|0|31|1|0|113.275|0|23|0|1|1|0.671198682
3|1|0|38|0|0|227.525|0|29|0|1|1|0.888825796
4|1|0|36|0|2|71|0|23|1|0|1|0.49853335
However, when I then check merged, the row numbers are no longer present (note that this produces unordered results, but nevertheless shows the point I am making):
SELECT * FROM merged;
2|0|24|0|0|13|0|38|1|0|0|0.505845678
3|1|61|0|0|6.2375|0|25|1|0|0|0.128146005
2|0|17|0|0|12|0|21|0|1|1|0.465261004
2|1|18|0|0|11.5|0|26|1|0|0|0.458356337
I suspect that the way to achieve this is to update merged by adding a new column and then adding the row numbers to said column, but I don't know how to go about it.
As such, my question is this: how can I save row numbers to merged?
SELECT statement won't change the merged table. Updating the existing table will be a bit complicated, and I guess there is no trivial way to do that. So the easier way is to create a new table, drop the previous one and renaming the new one to be the old one.
This code should work:
CREATE TABLE new_merged
AS (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Pclass) RowNum, * FROM merged);
DROP TABLE merged;
ALTER TABLE new_merged RENAME TO merged;

R Merge 2 tables/dataframes by partial match

I have two tables/dataframes.
The first Table (ID) one looks like this:
The second table (Names) looks like this:
I want to match the "IDTag" variable to the first few letters of the "Name" variable. In other programming languages I would do a foreach and run through each of the IDTags for each of the rows of the second table (matching the IDTag to the first n characters of the "Name" variable where n is the number of characters of the IDTag in question.
In R it seems like there should be a method for doing this and I have looked at pmatch and a few others but those either don't appear to make the match at all or when I try to use them come up with several NAs in places where I wouldn't have expected them (Sample code using the table data above:
NameMatches <- Names[pmatch(
ID$IDTag,
Names$Name,
duplicates.ok = TRUE
),]
I have the feeling I am going about this with the wrong theory or concept so I am looking to see if someone can guide on the simplest/clearest way to do this accurately.
Editing original question to reply to comments...
The expected output would look something like this (i.e. - all of the columns of the Names table with the addition of the Group column from the ID table. Multiple matches are expected - one to many relationship between ID and Names tables):
Thanks,
If you are open to using the sqldf package, then one option would be to just write a join using the logic you gave us:
library(sqldf)
sql <- "SELECT * FROM ID t1 INNER JOIN Names t2
ON t2.Name LIKE t1.IDTag || '%'"
output <- sqldf(sql)
Note: If you want to keep all rows from the ID data frame, regardless of whether or not they match to anything in Names, then use a left join instead.

Inserting and combining data between 2 table

We have a table students with ID,NAME,SURNAME. We want have another table (created) students_2 with ID1,NAME1,SURNAME1.
Starting from table students, i want to fill data in the second table in the following way : I want to have in the second table combinations of names ( example : NAME,SURNAME1; NAME1,SURNAME1). Moreover, i want to generate combination of names.
How can I do that ? I tried something like :
INSERT INTO students_2 (ID1,NAME1,SURNAME1) SELECT ID,NAME,NAME from students;
But it's not correct cause I don't generate combinations, just inserting . A solution is appreciated, but mainly i need ideas.
You could write something like
INSERT INTO students2(NAME, VALUE) FROM
SELECT s1.name, s2.value from students1 s1 cross join students1 s2
This will do Cartesian product , and will get a NxN rows with combinations

sqlite3: Intersect two tables where one value BETWEEN two others

I have two tables, one has single entries like this:
'rs47' 1027
The other has ranges:
'gene1' 1000 1500
These tables are huge, so I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to get all entries from table 1 where the entries are within any range in table 2.
I don't think that INTERSECT can be used like this. I know how to use SELECT to do this for a single entry:
SELECT name FROM 'table2' INDEXED BY 'start_end' WHERE 1027 BETWEEN start AND end
But I am not sure how to do that for every record in a table. Any ideas?
To check whether corresponding rows exist in the other table, you can use a correlated subquery:
SELECT *
FROM Table1
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM Table2
WHERE Table1.Value BETWEEN Table2.StartValue AND Table2.EndValue);

sqlite subqueries with group_concat as columns in select statements

I have two tables, one contains a list of items which is called watch_list with some important attributes and the other is just a list of prices which is called price_history. What I would like to do is group together 10 of the lowest prices into a single column with a group_concat operation and then create a row with item attributes from watch_list along with the 10 lowest prices for each item in watch_list. First I tried joins but then I realized that the operations where happening in the wrong order so there was no way I could get the desired result with a join operation. Then I tried the obvious thing and just queried the price_history for every row in the watch_list and just glued everything together in the host environment which worked but seemed very inefficient. Now I have the following query which looks like it should work but it's not giving me the results that I want. I would like to know what is wrong with the following statement:
select w.asin,w.title,
(select group_concat(lowest_used_price) from price_history as p
where p.asin=w.asin limit 10)
as lowest_used
from watch_list as w
Basically I want the limit operation to happen before group_concat does anything but I can't think of a sql statement that will do that.
Figured it out, as somebody once said "All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection." and in this case an extra select subquery did the trick:
select w.asin,w.title,
(select group_concat(lowest_used_price)
from (select lowest_used_price from price_history as p
where p.asin=w.asin limit 10)) as lowest_used
from watch_list as w
