Performance Issue: Passing Arrays To A Stored Procedure

Jan 16, 2004

Hi

I know that SQL Server itself does not support passing arrays to its procedures. But I need an alternative that will allow me to "duplicate" the same functionality.

I have the following information stored in a Class:


1. Userid varchar(16)
2. SessionId varchar(50)
3. LoginTime datetime
4. UserHostAddress varchar(15)
5. UserAgent varchar(150)
6. Browser varchar(255)
7. Crawler varchar(20)
8. SessionURL varchar(255)
9. SessionReferer varchar(255)
10. VisitNumber int
11. OriginalReferer varchar(255)
12. OriginalUR varchar(255)
13. Pages Array List (PageName varchar(255), ElapsedTime datetime)


I have two tables :

UserInfo: Where I keep the variables 1-12
PageInfo: Where I keep variable 13 (the list of pages)

I need to store this information in my SQL Server Database. So far I found three possible methods but I'm not sure which one has the better performance:

First Method: the easy one
1. Call the SaveUserInfo stored procedure
2. Loop through the pages array and call the SavePageInfo stored procedure for each page item in the array

Second Method: Passing a delimited string to the stored procedure
1. Call the SaveUserInfo stored procedure
2. Pass a delimeted string to the SavePageInfo stored procedure. The stored procedure will split the string and save the pages into the database. The string would look like this:

PageAddress1-ElapsedTime1|PageAddress2-ElapsedTime2|PageAddress3-ElapsedTime3...

Third Method: Passing and XML File to the stored procedure
The stored procedure will read the XML file and store the information into the database.

What method is the best for performance?? As you may see this is for tracking the user navigation through the website. For the first method I worry about the number of call to the database; for the Second and Third method I worry about the lenght of the string or XML file to pass to the stored procedure.


Any suggestions??

Thanks for any help

Passing Arrays To Stored Procedures

Feb 23, 2004

Dear all,

i want to know how i can pass multiple values in the form of arrays to a stored procedures.

the technique by which i pass multiple values to a stored procedure beginning along with declarations are as follows:


Dim configurationAppSettings As System.Configuration.AppSettingsReader = New System.Configuration.AppSettingsReader()
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand()
Me.OleDbConnection1 = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection()
Me.cmdInsSlabDMst = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand()
'
'cmdInsSlabHmst
'
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.CommandText = "PKGSLABHMST.INSSLABHMST"
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Connection = Me.OleDbConnection1
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iSLABDESC", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.VarChar, 50))
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iSLABUNIT", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.VarChar, 1))
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iREMARKS", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.VarChar))
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iSLABFROM", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.VarChar))
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iSLABRATE", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.VarChar))
Me.cmdInsSlabHmst.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter("iNOOFRECORDS", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.Integer))
'
'OleDbConnection1
'
Me.OleDbConnection1.ConnectionString = CType(configurationAppSettings.GetValue("ConnectionString", GetType(System.String)), String)

'Passing multiple values to the procedure with the help of ~ sign

Dim strCode As String
Dim i As Integer

If i = dgSlabDtl.Items.Count - 1 Then
'dblSlabRate = CType(dgSlabDtl.Items(i).FindControl("txtSlabRate"), TextBox).Text
'dblSlabFrom = CType(dgSlabDtl.Items(i).FindControl("txtSlabFrom"), TextBox).Text

strSlabRate = CType(dgSlabDtl.Items(i).FindControl("lblSlabRate"), Label).Text
strSlabFrom = CType(dgSlabDtl.Items(i).FindControl("lblSlabFrom"), Label).Text
End If
strSlabRateP += strSlabRate & "~"
strSlabFromP += strSlabFrom & "~"
intCntr += 1
'If dblSlabRate <> "" And dblSlabFrom <> "" Then
'InsDtl(strCode, dblSlabFrom, dblSlabRate)
'End If
Next
If strSlabRateP <> "" And strSlabFrom <> "" Then
With cmdInsSlabHmst
.Parameters("iSLABDESC").Value = UCase(txtSlabDesc.Text)
.Parameters("iSLABUNIT").Value = ddlSalbUnit.SelectedItem.Value
.Parameters("iREMARKS").Value = txtRemarks.Text
.Parameters("iSLABFROM").Value = strSlabFromP
.Parameters("iSLABRATE").Value = strSlabRateP
.Parameters("iNOOFRECORDS").Value = intCntr
End With
OleDbConnection1.Open()
cmdInsSlabHmst.ExecuteNonQuery()
OleDbConnection1.Close()
End If


to the insert procedure i am passing multiple values with the help of ~ sign and in the procedure the individual values are separated by identifying the position of ~ sign and the no. of records which have been passed. For which a complicated stored procedure has been written.

i want to pass multiple values in an array, so that my stored procedure becomes simple and runs faster. So, if someone tells me how to pass arrays to a stored procedure (with code example), it will be of real help.

regards
subhajit

Passing Arrays To Stored Procedures?

Feb 20, 2003

Someone recently tried to tell me that it is possible to pass an array to a stored procedure.

I have tried creating procedures with the 'table' datatype for the parameters but the attempts fail with a syntax error.

We currently workaround this limitation by passing the equivalent of an array to temporary tables and selecting from those tables as needed within our stored procedure but if we can circumvent this by passing an array, we'd definetly like to try that instead.

Thanks in advance for any advice you may share.

Calling A Stored Procedure Inside Another Stored Procedure (or Nested Stored Procedures)

Nov 1, 2007

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?

Calling A Stored Procedure From ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express: Working With SELECT Statements In The Stored Procedure-4 Errors?

Mar 3, 2008

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.

SQL Server 2014 :: Embed Parameter In Name Of Stored Procedure Called From Within Another Stored Procedure?

Jan 29, 2015

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],

Arrays In SQL Server

Dec 4, 2004

I am creating an application for booking events. Each event has several dates and each date has a fixed amount of available seats.

Currently in the events table I have a field for the number of available seats and a field for the string of dates that are later parsed into a listbox control.

The problem with my current setup is each date is sharing the same number of available seats so if date Event A is decemented 10 so will Event B.

I need some way to associate each date with it's own number of available seats. What is the best way to do this? An array? If so how do I store an array in the DB?

Thanks, Justin.

Can We Use Arrays For INSERT?

Apr 1, 2008

Hi,

I'm a complete newbie to SQL, and I need to know if there's an easy way to do this....I'm working with PHP, and it uses the following SQL statement:

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `databaseName_tags`.`data` (`order` ,`name` ,`rating` ,`info` ,`comment` ,`comment2`)
VALUES ('0','abc','5','helllo','great work','woohooo')");

But what I'd prefer to do, is to have two arrays like so:

$cols = array("order" ,"name" ,"rating" ,"info" ,"comment","comment2");
$data = array("0","abc","5","helllo","great work","woohooo");
$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `databaseName_tags`.`data` ($cols) VALUES ($data)");

Is it possible to do it something like what is given above? It'd make the program so much more flexible....

Are There Arrays In Sql2005 ?

Hi everyone
My stored procedure accepts 2 parameters: names, number of names like this: (name1, name2, name3,3) Problem is: the number of names changes each time i want to run it. Some time it is: Name1,1 and other time it is: name1, name2,2. So every time i run it i need to change code. I thought "arrays" might solve that problem but i never met arrays in sql2005. Does it exist ? Case answer is "no": What is it to replace arrays and solve the above problem?

System Stored Procedure Call From Within My Database Stored Procedure

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?

Ad Hoc Query Vs Stored Procedure Performance Vs DTS Execution Of Stored Procedure

Jan 23, 2008



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

Are There Such A Thing As Arrays In TSQL?

Feb 10, 2004

I'm have a stored procedure that iterates through a list of numbers and adds an item for each number (user id) some of these ids are duplicates which is fine even necessary for the first part of my query but for the last I need to ensure that no duplicates id's are passed to the stored procedure, in this case called 'spInsertForBackupNote'. My thoughts here was to do something like this:

SET @Note_Buffer = @UserID -- @Note_Buffer being some kind of array?

IF @Note_Buffer = @UserID -- If its been added to the buffer we dont execute sp
BEGIN
Do Nothing here
END

ELSE

BEGIN
EXECUTE spInsertForBackupNote @FK_UserID, @FK_NoteID
END

I know this would never work because it would always be false since I just added the same userid to the buffer that I want to add. But I think you see my problem. I know it should be an easy one but my TSQL is limited. I've posted the whole sp. Hope someone can help.

CREATE PROCEDURE spInsertAssignedNotesByList
@FK_UserIDList NVARCHAR(4000) = NULL,
@FK_NoteIDList NVARCHAR(4000) = NULL,
@By_Who INT,
@UserID INT

AS
SET NOCOUNT ON

DECLARE @Length INT
DECLARE @Note_Length INT
DECLARE @Note_Buffer INT

DECLARE @FirstUserIDWord NVARCHAR(4000)
DECLARE @FirstNoteIDWord NVARCHAR(4000)

DECLARE @FK_UserID INT
DECLARE @FK_NoteID INT

SELECT @Length = DATALENGTH(@FK_UserIDList )
SELECT @Note_Length = DATALENGTH(@FK_NoteIDList )

DECLARE @TempFK_NoteIDList NVARCHAR(4000) --= NULL
DECLARE @Temp_NoteLength INT

SET @TempFK_NoteIDList = @FK_NoteIDList
SET @Temp_NoteLength = DATALENGTH(@FK_NoteIDList )


-- IF @Length > @Note_Length -- If we have more users than notes

BEGIN

WHILE @Length > 0
BEGIN

IF @Length > 0

EXECUTE @Length = PopFirstWord @FK_UserIDList OUTPUT, @FirstUserIDWord OUTPUT
SELECT @FK_UserID = CONVERT(INT, @FirstUserIDWord)

IF @Length > 0
BEGIN

SET @FK_NoteIDList = @TempFK_NoteIDList
SET @Note_Length = @Temp_NoteLength

WHILE @Note_Length > 0
BEGIN
EXECUTE @Note_Length = PopFirstWord @FK_NoteIDList OUTPUT, @FirstNoteIDWord OUTPUT
SELECT @FK_NoteID = CONVERT(INT, @FirstNoteIDWord)

IF @Note_Length > 0
EXECUTE spInsertAssignedNoteDetail @FK_UserID, @FK_NoteID


SET @Note_Buffer = @UserID
EXECUTE spInsertForBackupNote @FK_UserID, @FK_NoteID, @By_Who, @UserID -- NEW HERE

Sample Document On Arrays?

Feb 21, 2008

I'm newer to MS SQL, but have a programming background, so I'm going to try to describe what I'm doing in that sense.

What I want to do is pull an entire column of data from one table, and insert it into a column in another table. Typically, I would do this with an array and while loop or something similar. I've figured out how to do a while loop in SQL, but the array situation has me stumped. I tried reading http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/jeffs/archive/2007/06/26/60240.aspx that article, however it referred to a procedure, and I have no background or experience with procedures.

Any sort of idea or document on a technique to do this would be most appreciated, thank you!

How To Save Arrays In SQL Database?

Feb 19, 2008

Hi,
I'm using Visual Studio and Visual Basic to save data about members in a database.
I use SQL-database as it's included.
However, I'm new to this saving in the datbase and wonder how I can at the best save data about a member without having to index each value in the arrays:
The array has 2 index and is declared
dim Results(6, 50) as string
Of course, I can do results11, results12,... results150, results21, ...results250....
But it seems rather awkward to do it this way. I'm sure that there is a better way.
Thanks, any assistance is appriciated!

Comma Seperated Field To Arrays For Each Record?

May 12, 2008

Hello,

My SQL knowledge is limited so if I get stuff wrong then correct me... but I can imagine this task will be quite testing...

I am working on a system that logs ([Audit] table) the changes to fields on some tables using a Trigger on UPDATE. I need to produce a 'quick' report that returns the date when the tables overallStatus field was set to 1.

In the [Audit] table I can find all the field changes for the record in question using this SQL...

select *
from audit
where rowid = 1309606
order by auditID asc


My problem is filtering this data. The fields I need are formatted as below, see records returned, in ASC order...

audit.AuditID = 2652583
audit.OperationTime = 2008-04-24 15:12:07.740
audit.ColumnDetail = 'estimatedProductionPriceactualProductionCost'
audit.EditDetail = '0.00000.0000'


audit.AuditID = 2658460
audit.OperationTime = 2008-04-25 10:51:47.930
audit.ColumnDetail = 'overallStatusInsertionStatus'
audit.EditDetail = '05'



audit.AuditID = 2665723
audit.OperationTime = 2008-04-25 22:06:50.200
audit.ColumnDetail = 'overallStatusdespatchDateInsertionStatus'
audit.EditDetail = '1Â 3'



audit.AuditID = 2711092
audit.OperationTime = 2008-04-30 17:22:12.593
audit.ColumnDetail = 'overallStatusInsertionStatus'
audit.EditDetail = '34'



audit.AuditID = 2713217
audit.OperationTime = 2008-04-30 20:46:34.817
audit.ColumnDetail = 'clientOrderNumber'
audit.EditDetail = 'PAT12P7640'


The funny character, , is ASCII 127.


So need to find when 1309606's overallStatus was changed to 1. Manually looking at the data, I can see overallStatus was modified in 3 of the above 5 [Audit] records. It started life as 0, then went to 1 and then to 3. I'm aware that I need to look at the previous Audits date for when it was changed to the value I'm looking for... So it was changed to 1 on 2008-04-25 10:51:47.930.


What is the best way to approach this problem? I'm hoping to use T-SQL only and not have to use an external scripting language, unless I can embed vbscript or jscript inside a T-SQL function and then use arrays, etc?

Somehow I need to convert the ASCII(127) seperated list of fieldname into an array or list, find the index of the fieldname 'overallStatus' and then lookup that value in the datafield.


Hope that makes sense and any help would be great!


Cheers,
Nick

Storing Large Arrays Of Ordered Pairs

May 13, 2008

How do you all recommend storing ordered pairs in SQL Server 2005? I plan to add one record for every data point but this will generate many records and requires an extra field to relate the points together. Are there any better ways to do this? Can the data still be searchable or does it have to be unpacked first?

Install Logs And Data On Separate Arrays

Aug 14, 2006

I'm getting ready to install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise for the first time and I have a question about the directory location of the log files and the data files. I have 3 RAID arrays on my server, 1 for the OS, 1 for SQL Logs, and 1 for SQL Data.

Here's my issue. I want to install the logs on the Log array and the SQL data on the SQL data array, however, during the installation I can't find anything that allows me to select certain directories!


Am I missing something somewhere?

Thanks

Large Arrays, UDFs And The Text Datatype

Jul 23, 2005

I have a bunch of SPs that all rely on a UDF that parses a commadelimitted list of numbers into a table. Everything was working fine,but now my application is growing and I'm starting to approach the 8000character limit of the varChar variable used to store the list.I would like to change the UDF only and avoid having to dig through allof my stored procedures. I was hoping to use the text datatype toallow for much larger lists, but I am unable to perform anymanipulations necessary to parse the list into a table. I have triedPATINDEX, but it alone is not enough without the text maniuplations andI don't think the sp_xml_preparedocument can be used in a UDF.Anyone with any thoughts on managing large arrays in t-sql?thanks,Matt Weiner
