Querying with Transact-SQL

Lab 2 – Querying Tables with SELECT

Overview
In this lab, you will use SELECT queries to retrieve, sort, and filter data from the AdventureWorksLT
database.

Before starting this lab, you should view Module 2 – Querying Tables with SELECT in the course
Querying with Transact-SQL. Then, if you have not already done so, follow the instructions in the Getting
Started document for this course to set up the lab environment.

If you find some of the challenges difficult, don’t worry – you can find suggested solutions for all of the
challenges in the Lab Solution folder for this module.

What You’ll Need


 An Azure SQL Database instance with the AdventureWorksLT sample database. Review the
Getting Started document for information about how to provision this.

Challenge 1: Retrieve Data for Transportation Reports


The logistics manager at Adventure Works has asked you to generate some reports containing details of
the company’s customers to help to reduce transportation costs.

Tip: Review the documentation for the SELECT and ORDER BY clauses in the Transact-SQL Reference.

1. Retrieve a list of cities


Initially, you need to produce a list of all of you customers' locations. Write a Transact-SQL query that
queries the Address table and retrieves all values for City and StateProvince, removing duplicates.

2. Retrieve the heaviest products


Transportation costs are increasing and you need to identify the heaviest products. Retrieve the names
of the top ten percent of products by weight.

3. Retrieve the heaviest 100 products not including the heaviest ten
The heaviest ten products are transported by a specialist carrier, therefore you need to modify the
previous query to list the heaviest 100 products not including the heaviest ten.

Challenge 2: Retrieve Product Data


The Production Manager at Adventure Works would like you to create some reports listing details of the
products that you sell.
Tip: Review the documentation for the WHERE and LIKE keywords in the Transact-SQL Reference.

1. Retrieve product details for product model 1


Initially, you need to find the names, colors, and sizes of the products with a product model ID 1.

2. Filter products by color and size


Retrieve the product number and name of the products that have a color of 'black', 'red', or 'white' and
a size of 'S' or 'M'.

3. Filter products by product number


Retrieve the product number, name, and list price of products whose product number begins 'BK-'.

4. Retrieve specific products by product number


Modify your previous query to retrieve the product number, name, and list price of products whose
product number begins 'BK-' followed by any character other than 'R’, and ends with a '-' followed by
any two numerals.

Well done! You’ve completed the lab, and you’re ready learn how to retrieve data from more than one
table in Module 3 – Querying Multiple Tables with Joins in the course Querying with Transact-SQL.
