A Stored Procedure With More To Choose From
Dec 18, 2007
Hello all I am trying to create a stored procedure that will either give the user a chance to use the wild cards or the IR_Number, or subjLastName (from the RevisedSubjects_Table) or a begin Date and an End Date.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[AdvSrchWildCardsIR]
(@Enter_IR_Number nvarchar(100))
AS
SET @Enter_IR_Number = REPLACE(@Enter_IR_Number, '*', '%')
SELECT dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.SubjFirstName, dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.SubjLastName, dbo.Revised_MainTable.[Violation Type],
dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.[IR Number], dbo.Revised_MainTable.[I/RDocument], dbo.Revised_MainTable.Date, dbo.Revised_MainTable.Action
FROM dbo.Revised_MainTable INNER JOIN
dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table ON dbo.Revised_MainTable.[IR Number] = dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.[IR Number]
IF patindex( '*', @Enter_IR_Number) > 0
BEGIN
SET @Enter_IR_Number = replace( @Enter_IR_Number, '*', '%' )
SELECT dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.SubjFirstName, dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.SubjLastName, dbo.Revised_MainTable.[Violation Type],
dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.[IR Number], dbo.Revised_MainTable.[I/RDocument], dbo.Revised_MainTable.Date, dbo.Revised_MainTable.Action
FROM dbo.Revised_MainTable INNER JOIN
dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table ON dbo.Revised_MainTable.[IR Number] = dbo.RevisedSubjects_Table.[IR Number]
END

Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie
exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created'
returns an int value as 1
(performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created')
but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie:
exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1'
which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc):
SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example).
My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert).
Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

Hi all,
I have 2 sets of sql code in my SQL Server Management Stidio Express (SSMSE):
(1) /////--spTopSixAnalytes.sql--///
USE ssmsExpressDB
GO
CREATE Procedure [dbo].[spTopSixAnalytes]
AS
SET ROWCOUNT 6
SELECT Labtests.Result AS TopSixAnalytes, LabTests.Unit, LabTests.AnalyteName
FROM LabTests
ORDER BY LabTests.Result DESC
GO
(2) /////--spTopSixAnalytesEXEC.sql--//////////////
USE ssmsExpressDB
GO
EXEC spTopSixAnalytes
GO
I executed them and got the following results in SSMSE:
TopSixAnalytes Unit AnalyteName
1 222.10 ug/Kg Acetone
2 220.30 ug/Kg Acetone
3 211.90 ug/Kg Acetone
4 140.30 ug/L Acetone
5 120.70 ug/L Acetone
6 90.70 ug/L Acetone
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Now, I try to use this Stored Procedure in my ADO.NET-VB 2005 Express programming:
//////////////////--spTopSixAnalytes.vb--///////////
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim sqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source = .SQLEXPRESS; Integrated Security = SSPI; Initial Catalog = ssmsExpressDB;")
Dim sqlDataAdapter As SqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdaptor("[spTopSixAnalytes]", sqlConnection)
sqlDataAdapter.SelectCommand.Command.Type = CommandType.StoredProcedure
'Pass the name of the DataSet through the overloaded contructor
'of the DataSet class.
Dim dataSet As DataSet ("ssmsExpressDB")
sqlConnection.Open()
sqlDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet)
sqlConnection.Close()
End Sub
End Class
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I executed the above code and I got the following 4 errors:
Error #1: Type 'SqlConnection' is not defined (in Form1.vb)
Error #2: Type 'SqlDataAdapter' is not defined (in Form1.vb)
Error #3: Array bounds cannot appear in type specifiers (in Form1.vb)
Error #4: 'DataSet' is not a type and cannot be used as an expression (in Form1)
Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
More Information for you to know:
I have the "ssmsExpressDB" database in the Database Expolorer of VB 2005 Express. But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly.
I try to learn "Working with SELECT Statement in a Stored Procedure" for printing the 6 rows that are selected - they are not parameterized.

I have some code that I need to run every quarter. I have many that are similar to this one so I wanted to input two parameters rather than searching and replacing the values. I have another stored procedure that's executed from this one that I will also parameter-ize. The problem I'm having is in embedding a parameter in the name of the called procedure (exec statement at the end of the code). I tried it as I'm showing and it errored. I tried googling but I couldn't find anything related to this. Maybe I just don't have the right keywords. what is the syntax?
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[runDMQ3_2014LDLComplete]
@QQ_YYYY char(7),
@YYYYQQ char(8)
AS
begin
SET NOCOUNT ON;
select [provider group],provider, NPI, [01-Total Patients with DM], [02-Total DM Patients with LDL],

I have a stored procedure that calls a msdb stored procedure internally. I granted the login execute rights on the outer sproc but it still vomits when it tries to execute the inner. Says I don't have the privileges, which makes sense.
How can I grant permissions to a login to execute msdb.dbo.sp_update_schedule()? Or is there a way I can impersonate the sysadmin user for the call by using Execute As sysadmin some how?
Thanks in advance

Has anyone encountered cases in which a proc executed by DTS has the following behavior:
1) underperforms the same proc when executed in DTS as opposed to SQL Server Managemet Studio
2) underperforms an ad-hoc version of the same query (UPDATE) executed in SQL Server Managemet Studio
What could explain this?
Obviously,
All three scenarios are executed against the same database and hit the exact same tables and indices.
Query plans show that one step, a Clustered Index Seek, consumes most of the resources (57%) and for that the estimated rows = 1 and actual rows is 10 of 1000's time higher. (~ 23000).
The DTS execution effectively never finishes even after many hours (10+)
The Stored procedure execution will finish in 6 minutes (executed after the update ad-hoc query)
The Update ad-hoc query will finish in 2 minutes

Hi all,
I am trying to debug stored procedure using visual studio. I right click on connection and checked 'Allow SQL/CLR debugging' .. the store procedure is not local and is on sql server.
Whenever I tried to right click stored procedure and select step into store procedure> i get following error
"User 'Unknown user' could not execute stored procedure 'master.dbo.sp_enable_sql_debug' on SQL server XXXXX. Click Help for more information"
I am not sure what needs to be done on sql server side
We tried to search for sp_enable_sql_debug but I could not find this stored procedure under master.
Some web page I came accross says that "I must have an administratorial rights to debug" but I am not sure what does that mean?
Please advise..
Thank You

I have a stored procedure 'ChangeUser' in which there is a call to another stored procedure 'LogChange'. The transaction is started in 'ChangeUser'. and the last statement in the transaction is 'EXEC LogChange @p1, @p2'. My questions is if it would be correct to check in 'LogChange' the following about this transaction: 'IF @@trancount >0 BEGIN Rollback tran' END Else BEGIN Commit END.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

I would like to call sp_FetchAnalysts from within sp_FetchOpenItems and insert the resultset from sp_FetchAnalysts into a local temporary table. Is this possible?

Hi there
i have a stored procedure like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE SP_Main
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
BEGIN TRANSACTION
exec SP_Sub_One output
exec SP_Sub_Two output
IF @@ERROR = 0
BEGIN
-- Success. Commit the transaction.
Commit Tran
END
ELSE
Rollback Tran
return
GO
now the problem is, when i execute the stored procedure's inside the main stored procedure, and these sub sp's has an error on it, the main stored procedure doesnt rollback the transation.
now i can put the "begin transation" in the two sub stored procedure's. The problem is
what if the first "SP_Sub_One" executed successfully, and there was error in "SP_Sub_Two"
now the "SP_Sub_One" has been executed and i cant rollback it... the error occured in the
"SP_Sub_Two" stored procedure ... so it wont run ... so there will be error in the data
how can i make a mian "BEGIN TRANSACTION" , that even it include the execution of stored procedure in it.
Thanks in advance

Hello people,
When I am trying to call a function I made from a stored procedure of my creation as well I am getting:
Running [dbo].[DeleteSetByTime].
Cannot find either column "dbo" or the user-defined function or aggregate "dbo.TTLValue", or the name is ambiguous.
No rows affected.
(0 row(s) returned)
@RETURN_VALUE =
Finished running [dbo].[DeleteSetByTime].
This is my function:
ALTER FUNCTION dbo.TTLValue
(
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN SELECT Settings.TTL FROM Settings WHERE Enabled='true'
This is my stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.DeleteSetByTime
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @TTL int
SET @TTL = dbo.TTLValue()
DELETE FROM SetValues WHERE CreatedTime > dateadd(minute, @TTL, CreatedTime)
END
CreatedTime is a datetime column and TTL is an integer column.
I tried calling it by dbo.TTLValue(), dbo.MyDatabase.TTLValue(), [dbo].[MyDatabase].[TTLValue]() and TTLValue(). The last returned an error when saving it "'TTLValue' is not a recognized built-in function name". Can anybody tell me how to call this function from my stored procedure? Also, if anybody knows of a good book or site with tutorials on how to become a pro in T-SQL I will appreciate it.
Your help is much appreciated.

Hello,
I am hoping there is a solution within SQL that work for this instead of making round trips from the front end. I have a stored procedure that is called from the front-end(USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency) that accepts two parameters and returns one column of data possibly several rows. I have a second stored procedure(USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool) that accepts the previous stored procedures return values. What I would like to do is call the first stored procedure from the front end and return the results from the second stored procedure. Since it's likely I will have more than row of data, can I loop the second passing each value returned from the first?
The Stored Procs are:
CREATE PROCEDURE USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency
@CID int,
@CY char(3)
AS
SELECT Distinct S.BalancePoolName
FROM SiteRef S
INNER JOIN Account A ON A.PoolId=S.ID
Inner JOIN AccountBalance AB ON A.Id = AB.AccountId
Inner JOIN AccountPool AP On AP.Id=A.PoolId
Where A.CompanyId=@CID And AB.Currency=@CY
CREATE PROCEDURE USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool
@PoolName varchar(50)
AS
Declare @DT datetime
Select @DT=
(Select MAX(AccountBalance.DateX) From Company Company
INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId
INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID
Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId
WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName)
SELECT SiteRef.BalancePoolName, AccountBalance.DateX, AccountBalance.Balance
FROM Company Company
INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId
INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID
Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId
WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName And AccountBalance.DateX = @DT
Order By AccountBalance.DateX DESC
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Dave

Is it possible to execute a stored procedure in one database, which thenitself executes a stored procedure from another database? We have decide tosplit our data into a tree structure (DB1) and data blobs (DB2) (we areusing MSDE and we have a 2gb limit with each DB so we've done it this wayfor that reason). I would like to, say, execute a stored procedure in DB1,passing in the data blob and other details, DB1 will create a tree node inDB1 and then add the blob record to DB2. DB1 will wrap in a transaction ofcourse, as will DB2 when it adds the blob. Is this possible?

I have a production server log shipping to a secondary server every 30 minutes (both SQL 2000), which the second server is used for both a warm standby server and for reporting from users. Issue: the log shipping locks the DB so reporting can't be done until the load is finished, the load to the second set of databases has taken up to 15 minutes to finish allowing the users only 15 minutes to run reports, this is not acceptable. The server also needs to be used for DR.
I am looking for another solution, I can't use Transactional Log shipping as not all of the tables in the databases have a primary key identified. So, I am looking for a real-time or near real-time reporting server that is more available to running reports and a warm standby server for Disaster recovery. I am trying to figure out what SQL Server 2000 has to provide (or even 2005 or 2008?) or I am also looking at some third party software, but not sure what is the best for a reasonable price.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks....JB

Hi All,
I have a dilemn:
On one side, I have a column C1 which could be a primary key because it is never null, the value is unique and identify the record. The problem is its a char type and its lenght can be close to 30.
Then, I've planned to add another column C2 of int type as PK. But then I need to add a unique constraint index on C1. Does it improve performance anyway?
Thanks

(Hard to put a good subject on this one...)
I have a database containing a lot of users and these users can have four different kind of telephone numbers connected to them: "Direct phone", "Switchboard", "Cell phone", "Home phone". The phone numbers are stored in a separate table. Some users have 0 phone numbers, some have 1, some have 3 etc.
Now I have to transfer the data to another database with a strict table structure and here the table that contains the user also should contain the users phone number and an alternative phone number, if the user currently has more than one phone number connected.
This means that if for instance we have three or more phone numbers connected to one user, we can maximum transfer two of them. This is not a big issue though...
We have ranked the importance of the phone numbers in the order as I presented them above.
What I do in my T-SQL query is to do a ISNULL() and see if the user has "Direct phone" connected, if not I check for the next type and so on.
Now to my problem! Can anyone give me a suggestion of how to write the code for the extraction of the Alternative phone? What I need to do is to check if there is a "Direct phone" connected to the user, if so I should NOT chose that but the next phone number that I find.

I'm currently developing an ASP.NET website which is using SQL Server 2005 and I couldn't decide between two table designs and I hope you can give me your opinions
The website is for a school and it'll be used to create tests from questions. The teacher will:
1. Select grade (could be multiple selection)
2. Select class
3. Select subject
The thing is that same question could be used for multiple grades.
Example query: "Get me questions of trigonometry of math from grades 7,8,9"
(Names used instead of ID's to make it more clear)
The first design:
[BigRelationsTable]
ID - QuestionID - GradeID - ClassID - SubjectID
1 - Question123 - Grade7 - Math - Trig
2 - Question123 - Grade8 - Math - Trig
3 - Question123 - Grade9 - Math - Trig
This is a simple design but all of the columns will need indexes because all of them will be used for searching and that makes me think about table performance.
Second design:
[GradeClassRelations]
ID - Grade - Class
1 - 7 - Math
2 - 8 - Math
3 - 9 - Math
[ClassSubjectRelations]
ID - GradeClassRelationsID - SubjectID
1 - GradeClassRelations1 - Trig
2 - GradeClassRelations2 - Trig
3 - GradeClassRelations3 - Trig
[SubjectQuestionRelations]
ID - ClassSubjectRelationsID - QuestionID
1 - ClassSubjectRelations1 - 1
2 - ClassSubjectRelations2 - 1
3 - ClassSubjectRelations3 - 1
This one is more normalised but this time the need of doing multiple joins makes me wonder.
What do you think? Which one should I use? Or if you have any other suggestions I'm all ears

Greetings SSIS friends
I want to implement the following query using SSIS Data flow Source component :
SELECT * FROM someTable WHERE someColumn = 'H'
How do I restrict the data coming from my data source? By that I mean how do I apply the WHERE clause in SSIS?! Should I use a conditional Split component?! but that would mean retrieving all records first then adding the split component (not the most efficient method surely).
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi there,
I have created an SSIS package which pushes data from SQL Server (2005) to Oracle (Version 9.2.0.7.0), but having some issues with setting up the connection objects to Oracle.
I have attempted the connection with both the OLE DB Destination connection in SSIS and also with an ODBC connection, but both come up with the same error "ORA-12154: TNS could not resolve service name".
I am using a 32-bit version of SQL Server 2005 and the Oracle DB is 64-bit. Any ideas?

Hi there,
There's a field with Varchar(5) type which contains both alpha and alpha-numeric data. When sorting based on this field 1001 comes before 101. Is there anyway I can sort it appropriately; is there any collation or something which could be used.
Result of the sort:
1001
101
102

Can someone help me with this issue? I am trying to update a record using a sp. The db table has an identity column. I seem to have set up everything correctly for Gridview and SqlDataSource but have no clue where my additional, phanton arguments are being generated. If I specify a custom statement rather than the stored procedure in the Data Source configuration wizard I have no problem. But if I use a stored procedure I keep getting the error "Procedure or function <sp name> has too many arguments specified." But thing is, I didn't specify too many parameters, I specified exactly the number of parameters there are. I read through some posts and saw that the gridview datakey fields are automatically passed as parameters, but when I eliminate the ID parameter from the sp, from the SqlDataSource parameters list, or from both (ID is the datakey field for the gridview) and pray that .net somehow knows which record to update -- I still get the error. I'd like a simple solution, please, as I'm really new to this. What is wrong with this picture? Thank you very much for any light you can shed on this.

On SQL 2012 (64bit) I have a CLR stored procedure that calls another, T-SQL stored procedure.
The CLR procedure passes a sizeable amount of data via a user defined table type resp.table values parameter. It passes about 12,000 rows with 3 columns each.
For some reason the call of the procedure is verz very slow. I mean just the call, not the procedure.
I changed the procdure to do nothing (return 1 in first line).
So with all parameters set from
command.ExecuteNonQuery()to
create proc usp_Proc1
@myTable myTable read only
begin
return 1
end
it takes 8 seconds.I measured all other steps (creating the data table in CLR, creating the SQL Param, adding it to the command, executing the stored procedure) and all of them work fine and very fast.
When I trace the procedure call in SQL Profiler I get a line like this for each line of the data table (12,000)
SP:StmtCompleted -- Encrypted Text.
As I said, not the procedure or the creation of the data table takes so long, really only the passing of the data table to the procedure.

How can I create a Cursor into a Stored Procedure, with another Stored Procedure as data source?
Something like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE TestHardDisk
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE CURSOR HardDisk_Cursor
FOR Exec xp_FixedDrives
-- The cursor needs a SELECT Statement and no accepts an Stored Procedure as Data Source
OPEN CURSOR HardDisk_Cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM HardDisk_Cursor
INTO @Drive, @Space
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
...
END
END
