EXISTS (Transact-SQL)
Gibt eine Unterabfrage an, die testet, ob Zeilen vorhanden sind.
Syntax
EXISTS subquery
Argumente
- subquery
Eine eingeschränkte SELECT-Anweisung. Die COMPUTE-Klausel und das INTO-Schlüsselwort sind nicht zulässig. Weitere Informationen zu Unterabfragen finden Sie unter SELECT (Transact-SQL).
Ergebnistypen
Boolean
Ergebniswerte
Gibt TRUE zurück, wenn eine Unterabfrage mindestens eine Zeile enthält.
Beispiele
A. Verwenden von NULL in Unterabfragen, um weiterhin ein Resultset zurückzugeben
Das folgende Beispiel gibt ein Resultset zurück, das mithilfe von EXISTS zu TRUE ausgewertet wird, obwohl NULL in der Unterabfrage angegeben wurde.
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT DepartmentID, Name
FROM HumanResources.Department
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL)
ORDER BY Name ASC ;
B. Vergleichen von Abfragen mit EXISTS und IN
Das folgende Beispiel vergleicht zwei semantisch gleichwertige Abfragen. Die erste Abfrage verwendet EXISTS, die zweite verwendet IN.
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT a.FirstName, a.LastName
FROM Person.Contact AS a
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS b
WHERE a.ContactId = b.ContactID
AND a.LastName = 'Johnson');
GO
Die folgende Abfrage verwendet IN.
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT a.FirstName, a.LastName
FROM Person.Contact AS a
WHERE a.LastName IN
(SELECT a.LastName
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS b
WHERE a.ContactId = b.ContactID
AND a.LastName = 'Johnson');
GO
Im Folgenden wird das Resultset der beiden Abfragen aufgeführt.
FirstName LastName

C. Vergleichen von Abfragen mit EXISTS und = ANY
Das folgende Beispiel zeigt zwei Abfragen zum Ermitteln von Läden, deren Namen dem Namen eines Lieferanten entsprechen. Die erste Abfrage verwendet EXISTS, die zweite verwendet =ANY.
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT DISTINCT s.Name
FROM Sales.Store AS s
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM Purchasing.Vendor AS v
WHERE s.Name = v.Name) ;
GO
Die folgende Abfrage verwendet = ANY.
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT DISTINCT s.Name
FROM Sales.Store AS s
WHERE s.Name = ANY
(SELECT v.Name
FROM Purchasing.Vendor AS v ) ;
GO
D. Vergleichen von Abfragen mit EXISTS und IN
Das folgende Beispiel zeigt Abfragen zum Ermitteln von Mitarbeitern von Abteilungen, die mit P beginnen.
USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT c.FirstName, c.LastName, e.Title
FROM Person.Contact AS c
JOIN HumanResources.Employee AS e
ON e.ContactID = c.ContactID
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM HumanResources.Department AS d
JOIN HumanResources.EmployeeDepartmentHistory AS edh
ON d.DepartmentID = edh.DepartmentID
WHERE e.EmployeeID = edh.EmployeeID
AND d.Name LIKE 'P%');
GO
Die folgende Abfrage verwendet IN.
USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT c.FirstName, c.LastName, e.Title
FROM Person.Contact AS c JOIN HumanResources.Employee AS e
ON e.ContactID = c.ContactID
JOIN HumanResources.EmployeeDepartmentHistory AS edh
ON e.EmployeeID = edh.EmployeeID
WHERE edh.DepartmentID IN
(SELECT DepartmentID
FROM HumanResources.Department
WHERE Name LIKE 'P%');
GO
E. Verwenden von NOT EXISTS
NOT EXISTS funktioniert genau umgekehrt wie EXISTS. Die WHERE-Klausel in NOT EXISTS wird erfüllt, wenn die Unterabfrage keine Zeilen zurückgibt. Im folgenden Beispiel werden Mitarbeiter ermittelt, die nicht in den Abteilungen arbeiten, deren Namen mit P beginnen.
SELECT c.FirstName, c.LastName, e.Title
FROM Person.Contact AS c
JOIN HumanResources.Employee AS e
ON e.ContactID = c.ContactID
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM HumanResources.Department AS d
JOIN HumanResources.EmployeeDepartmentHistory AS edh
ON d.DepartmentID = edh.DepartmentID
WHERE e.EmployeeID = edh.EmployeeID
AND d.Name LIKE 'P%')
ORDER BY LastName, FirstName
GO
Dies ist das Resultset.
FirstName LastName Title
