Building Dynamic Sql In Stored Proc Issue

Oct 14, 2004

Hi all,

I'm gonna need some help with this one.

I have this stored procedure written up that basically builds a dataset by querying a bunch of tables using outer joins. Our problem now is that it seems it takes a while for the dataset to pull back across the network. We would hence like to filter that dataset by adding on to the query in the procedure dynamically. Heres the query from the proc below:

SELECTN_Client.Prefix,
IsNull(dbo.N_CLIENT.SURNAME, '') + ', ' + IsNull(dbo.N_CLIENT.FIRST_NAME, '') AS Client_FullName,
dbo.N_CLIENT.TITLE,
dbo.N_COMPANY.COMPANY_NAME,
dbo.N_BUSINESS_UNIT.BUSINESS_UNIT_NAME,
dbo.N_DIVISION.DIVISION_NAME,
dbo.N_REF_INDUSTRY.INDUSTRY_NAME,
dbo.N_CLIENT.DIRECT_PHONE,
dbo.N_CLIENT.EMAIL,
dbo.N_CLIENT.TIER_ID,
(SELECT COUNT(Client_ID)
FROM N_Alumni
WHERE N_Alumni.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS Alumni,
(SELECT COUNT(Client_ID)
FROM N_XREF_Client_Activity
WHERE N_XREF_Client_Activity.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID AND Activity_ID = 1) AS SandB,
(SELECT BAH_EMP_NID
FROM N_XREF_Client_Activity
WHERE N_XREF_Client_Activity.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID AND Activity_ID = 1) AS SandBMailer,
(SELECT N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.BAH_EMP_NID
FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact
WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'MM' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS MMEMPNID,
dbo.N_CLIENT.SURNAME AS Client_Surname,
dbo.N_CLIENT.FIRST_NAME,
dbo.N_CLIENT.FIRST_NAME AS Client_FirstName,
dbo.N_CLIENT.COMPANY_ID,
dbo.N_CLIENT.DIVISION_ID,
dbo.N_CLIENT.BUSINESS_UNIT_ID,
dbo.N_COMPANY.GROUP_ID,
dbo.N_CLIENT.COUNTRY,
dbo.N_GROUP.GROUP_NAME,
dbo.N_CLIENT.CLIENT_ID,
(SELECT IsNull(N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.First_Name, '') + ' ' + IsNull(N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.Surname, '')
FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact
WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'PC' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS PCFullName,

#returnTable.AddlFullName,
#returnTable.AddlEMPNID,
#returnTable.FunctionID as Function_ID,
#returnTable.FunctionName as Function_Name,
(SELECT IsNull(N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.First_Name, '') + ' ' + IsNull(N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.Surname, '')
FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact
WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'CSO' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS CSOFullName,
(SELECT N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.BAH_EMP_NID
FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact

dbo.N_COMPANY.TARGET_COMPANY_FLAG,
dbo.N_COMPANY.INDUSTRY_ID,

INNER JOIN
dbo.N_COMPANY ON dbo.N_CLIENT.COMPANY_ID = dbo.N_COMPANY.COMPANY_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.N_GROUP ON dbo.N_COMPANY.GROUP_ID = dbo.N_GROUP.GROUP_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.N_REF_INDUSTRY ON dbo.N_COMPANY.INDUSTRY_ID = dbo.N_REF_INDUSTRY.INDUSTRY_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.N_DIVISION ON dbo.N_DIVISION.DIVISION_ID = dbo.N_CLIENT.DIVISION_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN
#returnTable ON #returnTable.CLIENT_ID = dbo.N_CLIENT.CLIENT_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.N_BUSINESS_UNIT ON dbo.N_CLIENT.BUSINESS_UNIT_ID = dbo.N_BUSINESS_UNIT.BUSINESS_UNIT_ID
ORDER BY N_Client.client_id
Where upper(title) like '%parameter_value%'
and company_id = 'parameter_value'
and Nmt_practice_code = 'parameter_value' ...............and so on

What we would like to do is to add 15 (where some may be null) input parameters to the definition of the query and then somehow (where the parameter is not null), dynamically add that parameter to the WHERE clause of the query illustrated in italics above. The bold print are examples of 3 of the 15 parameters to be passed into the query by the proc, so basically
title, company_id,Nmt_practice_code would be the 3 parameters being passed into this proc.

So in other words if 9 parameters out of the 15 are passed into the proc, we would like those 9 parameters to be added/built dynamically onto the SQL Query as 9 predicates. I hope I have been clear. Does anyone have any experience with this??? Help!!

Thanks

Building A Sql Statement In A Stored Proc

May 12, 2008

Hi All,
What i'm trying to do is build a dynamic query where the like clause is the variable bit of the query. What I've done is to create 4 varchar variables of length1000, and a variable to hold the result of the concatenated variables, which is defined as length of 4000. I've checked the length of the resultant query and its comes in at arount the 450 charcter lenght, but when I run the stored proc it truncates the @varfull around the point of the first % sign.
I've tried various ways to create this query and it always truncated around the point of the % sign.
Am I doing this right? can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do this with a sql statement, it works fine for text strings!
Here's part of the code, I create the content of @var3 in a loop based on a string of words passed into the stored proc.
Thanks for any help on this!

davej
@var1 = 'SELECT COUNT(d.item_id) AS Expr1, d.item_id FROM tp_index_details AS d INNER JOIN tp_index ON d.idx_id = tp_index.idx_id '@var2 = 'WHERE (d.idx_id IN (SELECT idx_id FROM tp_index AS i WHERE (item_Text LIKE'
@var3 = ''%london%' OR item_Text LIKE '%solicitor%''
@var4 = ' ) AND (subscription_id = 1000))) GROUP BY d.item_id ORDER BY d.item_id DESC'
@varfull = @var1+@var2+@var3+@var4

Building A Query In A Stored Proc With String

Feb 27, 2008

This should be an easy enough answer to find if I just knew what to search on!

I am building a query within my stored procedure based on what parameters are passed in. For example, suppose I have a table with first name and last name. I can call the sp with either first name or last name or both, so I build a query accordingly that says:
select * from tblNames where FirstName = 'Hannah'
or
select * from tblNames where LastName = 'Montana'
or
select * from tblNames where FirstName = 'Hannah' and LastName='Montana'

My problem is putting the single quotes around the variable value.
SELECT @whereClause = @whereClause + ' AND tblNames.LastName=' @LastName-with-singlequotes-around-it

Thanks

Building A Dynamic Stored Procedure

Mar 30, 2005

Hi

I am in the very final stages of
building a dating app for a client, I am totally stuck with the
advanced search page. been googling for days with limited success

For the most basic of purposes I have added a few form fields to my search.aspx page;
county (Dropdown list)
min age (Dropdown list)
max age (dropdown list)
Smoker (check box)
keyword (textbox)

My codebehind passes the vars to a stored procedure
@county = me.county.selectedvalue
etc
My problem is the stored procedure I sort of have the following but I can't get it to run
<code>
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.TEST_ADVANCED_SEARCH
(@countyID int ,
@MaxAge
varchar(100),
@MinAge
varchar(100),

@smoker tinyint),
@keyword
varchar(250))

AS

DECLARE @SQL Varchar
(4000)

SELECT  @SQL =   'dbo.user_accounts.profileComplete,
dbo.user_accounts.countyID, dbo.user_profiles.smoker,
dbo.user_profiles.Age
FROM         dbo.user_accounts INNER
JOIN
                     
dbo.user_profiles ON dbo.user_accounts.userID =
dbo.user_profiles.userID
WHERE     (dbo.user_accounts.profileComplete =
1)'

IF @countyID > 0
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' AND
(dbo.user_accounts.countyID = @countyID)'

IF @MaxAge IS NOT
NULL
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' AND (dbo.user_profiles.Age <= @MaxAge)
'

IF @MinAge IS NOT
NULL
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' AND (dbo.user_profiles.Age >= @MinAge)
'


IF @smoker > 0
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' AND
(dbo.user_profiles.smoker = 1)'

IF @keyword IS NOT
NULL
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' AND (dbo.user_profiles.Description LIKE @MinAge)
'


EXEC(@SQL)
</code>
If I can get this to work I can add the remaining fields that I need

Am I Missing something glaringly obvious?
Any help or advice gratefully received

Thanks

Building Dynamic SQL In Stored Procs

Oct 24, 2000

We are migrating from a file-server Access Database to a SQL server backend and Access front end system. I'm using ADO to access the data off the server but am implementing most of the business logic in stored procedures. All logic was coded in VBA earlier but i'm having to move that to T-SQL for performance issues. In many cases I have dynamically constructed SQL statements in code but I'm having some trouble in T-SQL. How can I do this in T-SQL?


' This is some VB code that shows how the query differs based on a parameter.
If Me![Sorting] = 1 Then
Me![ControlNumber].RowSource = "SELECT [DVD_Projects_Table].[DVD_Number], [Title] & "" : "" & [ID_Number] AS Display,__
[DVD_Projects_Table].Date FROM [DVD_Projects_Table] __
WHERE ((([DVD_Projects_Table].System) = IIf([Forms]![DVD_Projects_Form]![SystemFilter] = 1, ""525"", ""625""))) And __
(([DVD_Projects_Table].Active) = IIf([Forms]![DVD_Projects_Form].[ActiveOnly] = True, Yes, __
[DVD_Projects_Table].[Active]))) ORDER BY [DVD_Projects_Table].Title;"
Else
Me![ControlNumber].RowSource = "SELECT [DVD_Projects_Table].[DVD_Number], [ID_Number] & "" : "" & [Title] AS Display,__
[DVD_Projects_Table].Date FROM [DVD_Projects_Table]__
WHERE ((([DVD_Projects_Table].System) = IIf([Forms]![DVD_Projects_Form]![SystemFilter] = 1, ""525"", ""625""))) And __
(([DVD_Projects_Table].Active) = IIf([Forms]![DVD_Projects_Form].[ActiveOnly] = True, Yes, __
[DVD_Projects_Table].[Active]))) ORDER BY Int(Right([ID_Number],Len([ID_Number])-4));"
End If

This is the ideal sp that would do what I want but it is obviously incorrect. How can I get this logic implemented. I need to construct an SQL query based on the input parameters in a stored procedure.

CREATE PROCEDURE [procDVDProjectsList]
@SortBy as bit,
@ActiveOnly as bit,
@SysFilter as integer
AS
SELECT
CASE @SortBy
/* Display Title first */
WHEN 0 THEN [DVD_Number], [Title] + " : " + [ID_Number] AS Display, [DVD_Projects_Table].[Date]
/* Display Number first */
WHEN 1 THEN [DVD_Number], [ID_Number] + " : " + [Title] AS Display, [DVD_Projects_Table].[Date]
END
FROM
[DVD_Projects_Table]
WHERE
CASE @SysFilter
/* List all */
WHEN 0 THEN
/* List only NTSC */
WHEN 1 THEN [DVD_Projects_Table].[System] = "525"
/* List only PAL */
WHEN 2 THEN [DVD_Projects_Table].[System] = "625"
END
AND
CASE @ActiveOnly
/* List All */
WHEN 0 THEN
/* List only active */
WHEN 1 THEN [DVD_Projects_Table].Active = True
END
ORDER BY
CASE @Sortby
/* Sort Alpha */
WHEN 0 THEN [DVD_Projects_Table].Title
/* Sort Numeric */
WHEN 1 THEN Right([ID_Number],Len([ID_Number])-4)
END


Thanks for your help,

Building A Dynamic Sql Statement Into Stored Procedure

Apr 19, 2008

Hi i have a page whereby the user can make a search based on three things, they are a textbox(userName), dropdownlist(subcategoryID), and region (regionID). The user does not have to select all three, he or she can enter a name into the textbox alone and make the search or enter a name into the textbox and select a dropdownlist value, my question is how can i build this procedure, this is what another user suggested but i am having trouble;
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[stream_UserFind]

@userName varchar(100),
@subCategoryID INT,
@regionID INT

Mixing Dynamic SQL With Non-Dynamic In Stored Proc

Mar 24, 2007

I have a Stored Procedure for processing a Bill of Material.

One column on the Assembly Table is a Function Name that contains some busniess rules.

OK, now I'm doing a Proof of Concept and I'm stumped.

Huuuuh!

I will ultimately have about 100 of these things. My plan was using Dynamic SQL to go execute the function.

Note: The function just returns a bit.

So; here's what I had in mind ...

if isnull(@FnNameYN,'') <> ''
exec spinb_CheckYN @FnNameYN, @InvLineID, @FnBit = @FnBit output




CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spinb_CheckYN
@FnNameYN varchar(50),
@InvLineID int,
@FnBit bit output
AS

declare @SQL varchar(8000)

set @SQL = '
if dbo.' + @FnNameYN + ' (' + convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) + ')) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0'

exec (@SQL)
GO



Obviously; @FnBit is not defined in @SQL so that execution will not work.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.


So; is there a way to get a value out of a Dynamic SQL piece of code and get that value INTO my OUTPUT variable?


My many thanks to anyone who can solve this riddle for me.
Thank You!


Sigh: For now, it looks like I'll have a huge string of "IF" statements for each business rule function, as follows:
Hopefully a better solution comes to light.

------ Vertical Build1 - Std Vanes -----------
if @FnNameYN = 'fnb_YN_B1_14'
BEGIN
if dbo.fnb_YN_B1_14 (convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) ) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0
END

------ Vertical Build1 - Scissor Vanes -----------
if @FnNameYN = 'fnb_YN_B1_15'
BEGIN
if dbo.fnb_YN_B1_15 (convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) ) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0
END
.
.
.
etc.

Nov 22, 2004

Please help, I am trying to write a dynamic search stored procedure using three fields.
I use the same logic on the front end using VB to SQL server which works fine, but never tried a stored procedure with the logic.
Can you please help me, construct a stored procedure.
User can choose any of the three(progno, projno, contractno) fields as a where condition.

I ma using asp.net as front end with sql server backend.


CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.USP_Searchrecords

@psql = "SELECT * FROM Mytable"

IF @ProgNO <> '' then
strsql = WHERE ProgNO = @ProgNO
end if

If @ProjNO <> '' then
if strsql <> '' then
strsql = strsql & " and ProjNO =@ProjNO
ELSE
strsql = wHERE ProjNO =@ProjNO
END IF
END IF

If @ContractNO <> '' then
if strsql <> '' then
strsql = strsql & " and ContractNO =@ContractNO
ELSE
strsql = wHERE ContractNO =@ContractNO
END IF
END IF

@myselect = @psql + @strsql

Dynamic Security Stored Proc

May 7, 2008

Hi,

I'm looking for some sample code rather than having to re-invent the wheel.

I need to write an analysis services stored proc that will invoke a SQL stored prod in my DW dataabse to retrieve a list of client_id's. I then need to construct and return a set object. This AS stored proc will be referenced from a role.

I've read few things about using the Set object rather than StrToSet function but then the only way I see to create a Member orSet object from a literal is to build an Expresion object and call the CalculateMdxObject(null).ToSet() function. Is this not equivalent to MDX.StrToSet()?

Also, ideally I'd like to connect to my SQL db by accessing the connection string from the Data Source objects in my AS DB. So far I have not found a way to do this.

Some guidance and sample code would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Execute Dynamic SQL Stored Proc Without Specifying Table Level Permissions

Sep 17, 2007

I am writing a SQL 2000 stored procedure which uses an €˜EXEC @sqlString€™ statement. The @sqlString is generated at runtime. I want to give as few permissions as possible and currently allow users to access the database tables using only the stored procedures provided. However, with €˜Exec€™ I discover that I need to grant permissions on the actual tables to the users or groups. I would like to avoid this. I would also prefer not having to maintain a separate user with table level permissions and hardcoding the stored procedure with these details.
Is there anyway for me to dynamically generate the required SQL statement within my stored procedure and let SQL know that this stored procedure is allowed to select whatever tables it wants to without having to define permissions on the tables?

Building Dynamic SQL Query Strings

Jan 17, 2008

Let me start by asking that no one try to convince me to use Stored Procs.  The examples below are a lot more simplistic then my real world code and it just gets too complicated to try to manage the quantity of SPs that I would need.
I have an application that displays a lot of data and I've created a system for users to filter the data using checkboxlist controls, dropdown controls, etc.  From this, I have a "core" query that selects the fields that display in my GridView.  It has a base Select clause, From clause and Where clause.  From this I then add more to the Where clause to apply these filter values.
Here's an example "core" query:
SELECT Profile.FirstName, Profile.LastName, Project.ProjectNameFROM Profile, ProjectWHERE Profile.ProjectCode = Project.ProjectCode
From this if a user want's to only display profiles from NC, they could select that from the CBL and the query would be modified to:
SELECT Profile.FirstName, Profile.LastName, Project.ProjectNameFROM Profile, ProjectWHERE Profile.ProjectCode = Project.ProjectCodeAND Profile.State IN ('NC')
My code would add the last line above since the user specified that they only wanted NC profiles.
This is very simple and I have this already going on with my application.  Here's the problem.  In order to accommodate all of the various filters, I have to inner join and left join a bunch of various tables.  Many times I include tables that have no data to display or filter on and therefore impacts performance.  Here's an example:
SELECT Profile.FirstName, Profile.LastName, Project.ProjectNameFROM Profile, Project, AgentWHERE Profile.ProjectCode = Project.ProjectCodeAND Profile.AgentID = Agent.AgentID
From the query above, I have included the Agent table that holds the agent's contact information.  One of my filters allows the user to type in an agents name to find all profiles assigned to it.  Here's what that would look like:
SELECT Profile.FirstName, Profile.LastName, Project.ProjectNameFROM Profile, Project, AgentWHERE Profile.ProjectCode = Project.ProjectCodeAND Profile.AgentID = Agent.AgentIDAND Agent.Name = 'Smith, John'
You can see now that it was necessary to have the Agent table already joined into the query so that when I used the agent name filter, it wouldn't crash out on me.
The obvious thing would be to only include the Agent table when searching for an agent name.  This is ultimately what I'm looking to do, but I need a solid method to go about doing this.  Keep in mind that I currently have 16 tables in my "core" query and many of those are not needed unless the filters call for it.
If anyone has any ideas on how to simplify this process I'm selcome to suggestions.  We're using SQL 2000, but are looking to upgrade to SQL 2005, if that makes any difference.  I know that the way I do table joins is compliant with SQL 2005 and I'm certainly open to suggestions that will make it forward compatible.
This app is using .NET 2.0 and written in VB.NET.  Thanks for any help!

SQL Server 2012 :: In Trigger - Building Dynamic Table With Inserted Data

Nov 4, 2015

Within a trigger, I'm trying to create a unique table name (using the NEWID()) which I can store the data that is found in the inserted and deleted tables.

Declare @NewID varchar(50) = Replace(convert(Varchar(50),NEWID()),'-','')
Declare @SQLStr varchar(8000)

Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)

I get the following error: Invalid object name 'inserted'

I know I can do:

Select * into #inserted from inserted
Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from #inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)

But I don't want to use TempDB as these tables can become big and I also feel that it is redundant. Is there a way to avoid the creation of #inserted?

Can You Trace Into A Stored Proc? Also Does RAISERROR Terminate The Stored Proc Execution.

Feb 13, 2008

I am working with a large application and am trying to track down a bug. I believe an error that occurs in the stored procedure isbubbling back up to the application and is causing the application not to run. Don't ask why, but we do not have some of the sourcecode that was used to build the application, so I am not able to trace into the code.
So basically I want to examine the stored procedure. If I run the stored procedure through Query Analyzer, I get the following error message:
Msg 2758, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GetPortalSettings, Line 74RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 60002 in sysmessages.
(1 row(s) affected)
(1 row(s) affected)
I don't know if the error message is sufficient enough to cause the application from not running? Does anyone know? If the RAISERROR occursmdiway through the stored procedure, does the stored procedure terminate execution?
Also, Is there a way to trace into a stored procedure through Query Analyzer?
-------------------------------------------As a side note, below is a small portion of my stored proc where the error is being raised:
SELECT  @PortalPermissionValue = isnull(max(PermissionValue),0)FROM Permission, PermissionType, #GroupsWHERE Permission.ResourceId = @PortalIdAND  Permission.PartyId = #Groups.PartyIdAND Permission.PermissionTypeId = PermissionType.PermissionTypeId
IF @PortalPermissionValue = 0BEGIN RAISERROR (60002, 16, 1) return -3END

Stored Proc - Calling A Remote Stored Proc

Aug 24, 2006

I am having trouble executing a stored procedure on a remote server. On my
local server, I have a linked server setup as follows:
Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563

This works fine on my local server:

Select * From [Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563].DatabaseName.dbo.TableName

This does not work (Attempting to execute a remote stored proc named 'Data_Add':

Exec [Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563].DatabaseName.Data_Add 1,'Hello Moto'

When I attempt to run the above, I get the following error:
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563'.
No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.

Could anyone shed some light on what I need to do to get this to work?

Thanks - Amos.

Stored Proc Question : Why If Exisits...Drop...Create Proc?

Jun 15, 2006

Hi All,Quick question, I have always heard it best practice to check for exist, ifso, drop, then create the proc. I just wanted to know why that's a bestpractice. I am trying to put that theory in place at my work, but they areasking for a good reason to do this before actually implementing. All Icould think of was that so when you're creating a proc you won't get anerror if the procedure already exists, but doesn't it also have to do withCompilation and perhaps Execution. Does anyone have a good argument fordoing stored procs this way? All feedback is appreciated.TIA,~CK

ASP Cannot Run Stored Proc Until The Web User Has Run The Proc In Query Analyzer

Feb 23, 2007

I have an ASP that has been working fine for several months, but itsuddenly broke. I wonder if windows update has installed some securitypatch that is causing it.The problem is that I am calling a stored procedure via an ASP(classic, not .NET) , but nothing happens. The procedure doesn't work,and I don't get any error messages.I've tried dropping and re-creating the user and permissions, to noavail. If it was a permissions problem, there would be an errormessage. I trace the calls in Profiler, and it has no complaints. Thedatabase is getting the stored proc call.I finally got it to work again, but this is not a viable solution forour production environment:1. response.write the SQL call to the stored procedure from the ASPand copy the text to the clipboard.2. log in to QueryAnalyzer using the same user as used by the ASP.3. paste and run the SQL call to the stored proc in query analyzer.After I have done this, it not only works in Query Analyzer, but thenthe ASP works too. It continues to work, even after I reboot themachine. This is truly bizzare and has us stumped. My hunch is thatwindows update installed something that has created this issue, but Ihave not been able to track it down.

Building A UNION From Two Stored Procedures

Oct 8, 1999

I'm fairly new to MSSQL 7.0, and am having a problem. I would like to create a Stored Procedure that builds a Union of the result sets from two Stored Procedures. In reality, it is two calls to a single stored procedure, with different parameters.

I can't find any documented method to actually perform any operations on the result set of a stored procedure. Is there any way to get a SELECT statement to return the results of a Stored Procedure call?

Thanks in advance!

Building Where Clause Dynamically In Stored Procedure

Feb 8, 2008



Hello All,

I have created SP in SQL 2K5 and make the where clause as parameter in the Sp. i am passing the where clause from my UI(ie ASP.NET), when i pass the where clause to SP i am not able to fetch the results as per the given criteria.

WhereClause from UI: whereClause="where DefectImpact='High'"

SQL Query in SP: SELECT @sql='select * from tablename'

Exec(@sql + @whereClause )


Here i am not able to get the results based on the search criteria. Instead i am getting all the results.

Please help me in this regard.

Thanks,
Subba Rao.

Dynamic Name Of Result Column In S-proc?

Oct 12, 2004

How can I make this stored procedure concept work:

-----------------------------------------------
Create Procedure MyProc @MyValue varchar(5)
As
Declare @ColumnName as varchar(11)
Set @ColumnName = 'Price_' + @MyValue
Select Sum(Price) As @ColumnName --????
From MyTable where Item = @MyValue
Return
-----------------------------------------------

Using @MyValue = 23 should make the Sum(Price) column name 'Price_23'. It's not working. What am I doing wrong?

How To Compare Dynamic Variable In Proc

Sep 28, 2007

I have a table with 52 columns named 'Week1', 'Week2' etc. with values 1, 0 etc. I want to check values in each column. I have following lines in my procedure.

Declare @l_str varchar(50),
@l_count int

Select @l_count = 1
Select @l_str = 'Week' + Convert(varchar, @l_count)
Now how do I compare the value stored in the @l_str which should be wither 0 or 1 and not 'Week1'?

Is there any better method to compare read these 52 table variables?

Thanks in advance

Syntax Error When Building Up A Where Clause In Stored Procedure

Aug 9, 2006

Can anyone tell me why the line highlighted in blue produces the following error when I try to run this stored proc? I know the parameters are set properly as I can see them when debugging the SP.
I'm using this type of approach as my application is using the objectdatasource with paging. I have a similar SP that doesn't have the CategoryId and PersonTypeId parameters and that works fine so it is the addition of these new params that has messed up the building of the WHERE clause
The Error is: "Syntax error converting the varchar value '  WHERE CategoryId = ' to a column of data type int."
Thanks
Neil

Analysis :: Building A Cube Based On Stored Procedure

Jul 29, 2015

I am new to SSAS. I have requirement to build a cube based on SQL Stored procedure. This Stored Procedure contains lot of temp tables, which are aggregated as measure columns.

Initially I have done creating views on each temp table, finally I created a view which calls like 15 views. when I try to execute the view, it is taking long time to execute the view.

I tried building cube on this view, when I try to deploy, even it is taking long time to deply..I have waited for 2 hours, still the deployement process going..

What I wonder is, is there any other way I can build cube based on SQL stored Procedure.

Building Query Strings Within Stored Procs - Good Or Evil?

Feb 4, 2008

I ran across this technique being used in an application the other day. It seems not a good idea to me. What do you think?

1. The proc builds a basic query, nothing real fancy, into a string variable called @SQL defined as varchar 2000. Depending on the result desired, the group by clause can be one of three different sort orders.

2. The string is executed via EXEC @SQL.

It seems to me that the whole process can eliminate the EXEC and just use some other construct. All the parameters are passed in via the initial call to the stored proc. It also seems that every time this is executed it will result in a new query compile and cache useage, no matter what. Wasteful? Should I take the developers aside and knock heads? I think the app was coded by some folks who were rookies then but may be willing to crack open their code. Or, am I the one that is a rookie?

Thanks for your inputs.

I have seen this done by viewing code done by a SQL expert and would like to learn this myself. Does anyone have any examples that might help.

I guess I should state my question to the forum !

Is there a way to call a stored proc from within another stored proc?

Thanks In Advance.

Calling Stored Proc B From Stored Proc A

Jan 20, 2004

Hi all

I have about 5 stored procedures that, among other things, execute exactly the same SELECT statement

Instead of copying the SELECT statement 5 times, I'd like each stored proc to call a single stored proc that executes the SELECT statement and returns the resultset to the calling stored proc

The SELECT statement in question retrieves a single row from a table containing 10 columns.

Is there a way for a stored proc to call another stored proc and gain access to the resultset of the called stored proc?

I know about stored proc return values and about output parameters, but I think I am looking for something different.

Thanks

Calling T SQL Stored Proc From CLR Stored Proc

Aug 30, 2007

I would like to know if the following is possible/permissible:

myCLRstoredproc (or some C# stored proc)
{
//call some T SQL stored procedure spSQL and get the result set here to work with

INSERT INTO #tmpCLR EXECUTE spSQL
}

spSQL
(

INSERT INTO #tmpABC EXECUTE spSQL2
)


spSQL2
(
// some other t-sql stored proc
)


Can we do that? I know that doing this in SQL server would throw (nested EXECUTE not allowed). I dont want to go re-writing the spSQL in C# again, I just want to get whatever spSQL returns and then work with the result set to do row-level computations, thereby avoiding to use cursors in spSQL.

Proc With Dynamic Query Hang When Insert Trigger Fires....

Feb 16, 2005

Need to parsing serverName and databaseName to run a dynamic query to get serverName and databaseName and employee_ID via a accountID parameter.
-----------------------------
declare @stringSQL varchar(200)
select @stringSQL=
'insert into temp1 select '+@AccountID+' accountID, employee_ID from ' + @serverName +'.dbo.'+@databaseName+'.tblEmployee where inactive=0'
print @stringSQL_GetUserName
exec (@stringSQL_GetUserName)
select * from temp1
------------------------------
above dynamic query works fine.
Howevery, this should be run only under insertion event. When I put it in a proc to run within the insertion trigger or put the whole sql statement within the trigger:

1. when ran at a MSDE server
MSDTC on server is unavailable.

2. when ran at a SQL2000 developer testing server with the distributed transaction coordinator on, the insertion a record in the isql/w hang there. Could not even to kill this query, and have to stop and restart the SQL server.

Then I just want to return the dynamic query result without 'insert into temp1 ', the result is still hang...
Is there a way to let the insert trigger to run a dyanamic query which linked to around 10 servers?

thanks
David
