Hi all,
ive tried to run a query in a view and am getting this error message:
'last' is not a recognised function name
i was sure that last was used in sql, how can i get the same result if it wont accept 'last'?
greg
I've just reinstalled SQL 7, and it will no longer recognise a .mdf file created last week.
Any ideas ?
Hi All,
I have a tricky one for you...
1. I create a custom log provider on machine A.
2. I deploy the signed assembly to the../../DTS/90/LogProviders directory & the GAC on both machine A & machine B.
3. I create a new package on machine A & go to enable logging for this new custom provider: I find it in the drop-down list of providers, and I can add it successfully.
4. I create a new package on machine B & go to enable logging for this new custom provider: I find it in the drop-down list of providers, but I can't add it. I get the following error:
'...failed to create log provider...the log provider type "_" specified for log provider "_" is not recognized as a valid log provider type. This occurs when an attempt is made to create a log provider for an unknown log provider type. Verify the spelling in the log provider type name (package)."
Any ideas anyone??
Tamim.
here is my code snippet
Session("matricN") = Trim(TextBox1.Text)
Dim txtValue As String
txtValue = Session("matricN")
da = New SqlDataAdapter("select MatricNumber,Name, Roles from Register where MatricNumber = " & txtValue, addRoleConn1)
MatricNumber is in varchar(50) datatype,, the errror says there is a syntax near "="
I am databinding a dataset formed from a stored procedure,(all done on page_load).
However, the reference to the column name is not recognised with the following error being returned.
Column with name "CalcVal" was not found.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: Column with name "CalcVal" was not found.Source Error:
Line 152: chartCommand.Fill(chartDs);
Line 153: Chart1.DataSource = chartDs;
Line 154: Chart1.DataBind();
Line 155:
Line 156: }
This worked before deployment and the other controls which are bound to data using stored procedures seem to work. However, these other data sources are all sqlDatasoure controls.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
I have found issues relating the to user ID and password which seems to depend on whether the web server and data server are the same machine or whether they are remote from each other.
cheers-jim.
Hi
Sincere Apologies for the cross posting. Did not realize that there is a specific DB Mirroring group and so posted initially in the High Availability group. Here is the original post
Hi
I am trying to test DB Mirroring connectivity and running into a road block. using SQLOLDB in my connection string the failover partner keyword seems to be not recognised when the failover occurs and the connectivity fails. The same however works with the SQL Native client driver.
Can any expert please let me know what I am doing wrong and what is the right connection string for the OLEDB one?. I also tried using different flavors of FailoverPartner (like Failover Partner, FailoverPartner etc) to make it work with OLEDB but still could not connect with SQLOLEDB provider.
SQLNCLI works with no issues at all.
Connection string code samples included.
--Code that does not work
Code Snippetconnstring = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;network=dbmssocn;Data Source=Server1SQLInst1;FailoverPartner=Server2SQLInst2;Initial catalog=mydb;INTEGRATED SECURITY=SSPI;"
Code Snippetconnstring = "Provider=SQLNCLI;network=dbmssocn;Data Source=Server1SQLInst1;FailoverPartner=Server2SQLInst2;Initial catalog=mydb;INTEGRATED SECURITY=SSPI;"
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Is Rand function cannot be used in the User Defined function?
Thanks.
I need to be able to pass the output of a function to another function as input, where all functions involved are user-defined in-line table-valued functions. I already posted this on Stack Exchange, so here is a link to the relevant code: [URL] ...
I am fairly certain OUTER APPLY is the core answer here; there's *clearly* some way in which does *not* do what I need, or I would not get the null output you see in the link, but it seems clear that there should be a way to fool it into working.
Hi,
I wonder if there a function that i can use in the expression builder that return a value (e.g o) if the input value is null ( Like ifnull(colum1,0) )
i hope to have the answer because i need it so much.

Ok, I'm pretty knowledgable about T-SQL, but I've hit something that seems should work, but just doesn't...
I'm writing a stored procedure that needs to use the primary key fields of a table that is being passed to me so that I can generate what will most likely be a dynamically generated SQL statement and then execute it.
So the first thing I do, is I need to grab the primary key fields of the table. I'd rather not go down to the base system tables since we may (hopefully) upgrade this one SQL 2000 machine to 2005 fairly soon, so I poke around, and find sp_pkeys in the master table. Great. I pass in the table name, and sure enough, it comes back with a record set, 1 row per column. That's exactly what I need.
Umm... This is the part where I'm at a loss. The stored procedure outputs the resultset as a resultset (Not as an output param). Now I want to use that list in my stored procedure, thinking that if the base tables change, Microsoft will change the stored procedure accordingly, so even after a version upgrade my stuff SHOULD still work. But... How do I use the resultset from the stored procedure? You can't reference it like a table-valued function, nor can you 'capture' the resultset for use using the syntax like:
DECLARE @table table@table=EXEC sp_pkeys MyTable
That of course just returns you the RETURN_VALUE instead of the resultset it output. Ugh. Ok, so I finally decide to just bite the bullet, and I grab the code from sp_pkeys and make my own little function called fn_pkeys. Since I might also want to be able to 'force' the primary keys (Maybe the table doesn't really have one, but logically it does), I decide it'll pass back a comma-delimited varchar of columns that make up the primary key. Ok, I test it and it works great.
Now, I'm happily going along and building my routine, and realize, hey, I don't really want that in a comma-delimited varchar, I want to use it in one of my queries, and I have this nice little table-valued function I call split, that takes a comma-delimited varchar, and returns a table... So I preceed to try it out...
SELECT *FROM Split(fn_pkeys('MyTable'),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error. Ugh. Eventually, I even try:
SELECT *FROM Split(substring('abc,def',2,6),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error.
Hmm...What am I doing wrong here, or can't you use a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
SELECT *FROM Split('bc,def',DEFAULT) works just fine.
So my questions are:
Is there any way to programmatically capture a resultset that is being output from a stored procedure for use in the stored procedure that called it?
Is there any way to pass a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
Oh, this works as well as a work around, but I'm more interested in if there is a way without having to workaround:
DECLARE @tmp varchar(8000)
SET @tmp=(SELECT dbo.fn_pkeys('MyTable'))
SELECT *
FROM Split(@tmp,DEFAULT)
Hi All
Yesterday Peso was gracious enough to help me with creating function/views/sp's
I took those examples and extended what had from excel into function in SQL
however I see myself repeating certain parts of the query and i'm wondering if there is a way to call a function (in part or in whole) from another function?
Here are excerpts two functions I have:
We'll call this function UserUsage()
------------------------------------
RETURN(
SELECT ut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(Sum(hu.session_time)/ 60000) AS [Time Spent(MIN)],
Max(hu.time_stamp) AS [Last Log Date],
pct.Title, cat.topic_name
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable ut,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.history_usage hu,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.pc_CourseTitles pct,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.cam_topics cat
WHERE ut.student_id = hu.student_id
AND hu.course_id = pct.CourseID
AND hu.topic_id = cat.topic_id
AND ((ut.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (pct.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (ut.GroupID=3400)
AND (hu.time_stamp>= @StartDate
And hu.time_stamp< @EndDate)
AND (hu.session_time<21600000))
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName, pct.Title, cat.topic_name
)
and will call this function UserSummary():
-----------------------------------------
RETURN (
SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable AS ut
INNER JOIN ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.History_Usage AS hu
ON hu.Student_ID = ut.Student_ID
WHERE ut.ClientID = @ClientID
AND ut.GroupID = 3400
AND hu.Time_Stamp >= @StartDate
AND hu.Time_Stamp < @EndDate
AND hu.Session_Time < 21600000
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName
)
As you can see the first part of the both query are simlar. In particular the:
SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]
and also the variables @StartDate and @EndDate.
In C# it would create a method and just call that method as well as the variables. However i'm not sure how to do that with sql functions. Could someone shed some light please?
Thank you!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a table:tblRateUserUserIDJudge intUserIDJudged intscore int
this table contains the userid of the person giving a score (judge) and the person receiving the score (judged) and the score itself.

I'm creating DTS packages to load data from text files. I'm finding that a lot of the data needs to be transformed in the same way (e.g trailing "." removed). Rather than writing individual activex scripts to do this, is it possible to write my own DTS function which I call from my DTS packages?

Hi,
I am upgrading an AccessXP database to SQL 2000 and have an issue with week numbers.
There is currently a piece of VBA that calculates the week number for time recording purposes using the DatePart function as
DefaultVal_WeekNo = DatePart("ww", TaxDate, vbMonday, vbFirstFourDays)
I have tried to get this replicated in SQL by using
declare @TaxDate as datetime
declare @TheWeek float
set @TaxDate = @TheDate -90 -7
set @TheWeek = cast(datepart("ww",@TheDate) as numeric (30))
-
cast(datediff("wk", @TaxDate, @TheDate) as numeric (30))
but this is not reurning the correct values, i belive this is because the VB function has the vbMonday argument.
Can anyone tell me how i can get wround this please?
TIA
Is there a SQL MTD function ! Let's I want to delete MTD rows. Need something
like:
delete from abc where date_entered = mtd
Suggestions are appreciated.
We have len() function in some of our stored procedures. Why one of our SQL servers (6.5) will not recognize this function while others do? While we transfer the stored procedures, the stored procedure can not be transfered to the database of that server.
Your immediate help will be appreciated.

Hi,
I am having some difficulty with the Max function. I would expect it to return one row when you use it in a select statement (as long as there is truly one unique row)
Executing the query below give me the following result
select * from lead_with
where id= 80430
ORDER BY 1 DESC
id firm covacc avgFinal
----------- ----------- ----------- ----------------------------------------
80430 122 0 8.000000
80430 122 29353 9.000000
80430 505 NULL 8.500000
80430 2045 NULL 7.500000
80430 122 18815 9.000000
80430 223 NULL 8.500000
80430 625 NULL 8.000000
Executing the next query give me the following results
select MAX(avgFinal), IBFirm
from lead_with
where [ID] = 80430
group by avgFinal,IBFirm
order by avgFinal desc
IBFirm
---------------------------------------- -----------
9.000000 122
8.500000 223
8.500000 505
8.000000 122
8.000000 625
7.500000 2045
Not only does it return more than one row, it actually misses a row from
above
80430 122 18815 9.000000
I guess I am missing something. What I am trying to do is get the row with
the maximum value in the avgFinal column.
Any help is appreciated.
