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
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! regrads 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
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, (SELECT N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact.BAH_EMP_NID FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'PC' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS PCEMPNID, (SELECT NMT_Practice_Code FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'PC' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS NMT_Practice_Code, (SELECT NMT_Practice_Name FROM N_Vw_Client_BAH_Contact WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'PC' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS NMT_Practice_Name, #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 WHERE Relationship_Type_Code = 'CSO' AND N_Vw_client_BAH_Contact.Client_ID = N_Client.Client_ID) AS CSOEMPNID, ISNULL(dbo.N_CLIENT.ARCHIVE_FLAG, 'N') AS Archive_Flag, dbo.N_COMPANY.TARGET_COMPANY_FLAG, dbo.N_COMPANY.INDUSTRY_ID, N_Client.Address1, N_Client.Address2, N_Client.Address3, N_Client.Address4, N_Client.Address5, N_Client.City, N_Client.State, N_Client.Postal_Code, N_Client.Country, N_Client.Region, N_Client.Office_Code, N_Client.Broderick_Target_Flag FROMdbo.N_CLIENT 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!!
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.
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, I tried this but it didnt work;
Code:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[stream_UserFind]
(
@userName varchar(100),
@subCategoryID INT,
@regionID INT
) AS
declare @StaticStr nvarchar(5000) set @StaticStr = 'SELECT DISTINCT SubCategories.subCategoryID, SubCategories.subCategoryName, Users.userName ,UserSubCategories.userID FROM Users INNER JOIN UserSubCategories ON Users.userID= UserSubCategories.userIDINNER JOIN SubCategories ON UserSubCategories.subCategoryID = SubCategories.subCategoryID WHERE UserName like @UserName'
if(@subCategoryID <> 0) set @StaticStr = @StaticStr + ' and SubCategories.subCategoryID = @subCategoryID ' if(@regionID <> 0) set @StaticStr = @StaticStr + ' and SubCategories.RegionId = @regionID '
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?
I need to write a storedproc that receives the name of a table (as a string) and inside the stored proc uses select count(*) from <tablename>. The problem is the passed in tablename is a string so it can't be used in the select statement. Any ideas how I can do what I want?
Hello, I have a number of multi-select parameters which I would like to send to a stored procedure within the dataset for use in the stored procedure's IN() statement which in turn is used to filter on or out particular rowsets.
I considered using a hidden string parameter set = " ' " + join(parameter.value, ',') + " ' " so that the hidden parameter would then contain a comma delimiated string of the values selected, which would then be sent on to the stored proc and used in the WHERE clause of one of the queries internal to the stored proc. But before I start dedicating time to do this I wanted to inquire if anyone here with far more expertise could think of a faster or less system heavy method of creating a single string of comma delimited parameter selections?
I have two tables, Employee and EmployeeEval, and need to try and Select the LastName, FirstName, EmployeeID, and DeptID from the Employee Table where there is no record of that employee in the EmployeeEval Table. I tried this and it won't work, I should get back like 80 employees when the query is written correctly: select e.deptid, (e.lastname + ', ' + e.firstname) as EmpName, e.employeeid from employee e INNER JOIN employeeeval ev ONe.employeeid <> ev.employeeid where periodid = 176 and e.companyid = '21' and e.FacilityID = '01'
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
So, i am building a string using datepart and then adding the time at the end. The 120 after the final comma is to define the style (as i am sure you will all know anyway).
When i run this i get the following error:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 35 Syntax error converting the varchar value ' 16:30:00' to a column of data type int.
If i take out the colons it runs but brings back the wrong date, the whole date seems to be dependant on the time part at the end.
I am sure this is a really simple problem and i am sorry if i am wasting you time but its late and i just cant see it. Any help would be fantastic.
Hi,In the past I build up the query string within VB.NET page and easy to add the filtering statements in the SQL statement since it is just a string. For example, if user selected an option then include it in the filter, otherwise, just return all rows from table:Codes in ASPX.VB: Dim SQL as String="SELECT * From Table1" IF UserOption <> Null then SQL = SQL & " WHERE Column1=" UserOption" End ifNow, since I have a complicated page which need to use Stored Procedure to manapulate a temporary table before the final result. But I found when I want to add some user options similar to above, I found I don't know how to do it in Stored Procedure. In the Stored Procedure Property screen, I can't insert a IF..THEN statement within a SELECT statement. Seems I can only check the user option first and then determine the SELECT statement to use. That is: IF UserOption THEN SELECT statement 1 ELSE SELECT statement 2.But it is impossible for me to do this way since I'm not only one user option on the page. User usually can have several filters/selections on his screen. So if check which user option(s) are selected and write a static SELECT statement for it, I will have to program a complicated store procedure to cater all combinations for all user options (where some options may be null).Hope you can understanding what my mean and give me advices.Regards,Raymond
In some of our business object reports we have to create variables to decode values to what we want. I am trying to replicate this in SQL Server and remember doing this in SQL server 2000 years ago back can't remember the exact way to do it. I remember running a query and calling stored proc within query which would return the value I wanted but not sure if I can still do this in SQL server 2008 and by that I mean doing it within query or have to do it another way.
Basically what I want is to have a procedure with all the variables replicated within that procedure so that when I run a query I can just call the appropriate bit of code by passing a specific name like
select job.dept, dbo.decodevariable('ShowJobDesc' job.jobtitle), job.salary from job
so 'ShowJobDesc' and the job.jobtitle would be used to decode each job title to return job description.Just a bit unsure and can't remember if I am doing this the right way, is this possible?
Is it possible to pass 5 variables to a proc and have IT do the thinking and query structuring? An example of what I'm try to do is have one proc for getting vehicles by make, model, and years example of what I'd like to accomplish:veh_list_vehicleInfo_byDetails @TypeID int, @MakeID int, @ModelID int, @begYear int, @endYear int AS BEGIN
declare @SQL as nvarchar(500) set @SQL = 'SELECT a.ID, b.Model, c.Make, d.Name, a.Year, a.Mileage, a.Price, a.Sale, a.Certified_Pre_Owned FROM veh_vehicles a INNER JOIN veh_model b ON a.ModelID = b.ID INNER JOIN veh_make c ON a.MakeID = c.ID INNER JOIN veh_location d ON a.LocationID = d.ID'
decalre @ATTRIBUTES as nvarchar(500) if @TypeID is not null AND @TypeID > 0 begin set @ATTRIBUTES = @ATTRIBUTES + ' a.TypeID = ' + @TypeID end if @MakeID is not null AND @MakeID > 0 begin set @ATTRIBUTES = @ATTRIBUTES + ' a.MakeID = ' + @MakeID end
....etc etc.......
if Len(@ATTRIBUTES) > 0 begin EXEC(@SQL + ' WHERE ' + @ATTRIBUTES) End Else BEGIN EXEC(@SQL) END
END But I keep getting some errors regarding converting 'a.TypeID = ' to int ????? Please help!! I figured this would be easier than writing stored procs for EACH situation
Yesterday i face a strange SQL Server 2000 behaviour :-(
I had a query that was wrapped inside a stored procedure, as usual. Suddenly, the stored procedure execution time raised from 9 secs to 80.
So to understand where the problem was i cut and pasted the sp body's into a new query analyzer window an then executed it again. Speed back to 9 secs. Tried stored procedure again, and speed again set to 80 secs.
Tried to recompile sp. Nothing. Tried to restart SQL Server. Nothing. Tried to DROP & RE-CREATE sp. Done! Speed again at 9 secs.
My collegue asked me "why?", but i had no words. :confused: Do you have any explanation?
1/ I create stored procedure in Query Analyser using: ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.unshippedtotal @name char, @ytd int output AS select * from vwaccount select @ytd=sum(AccAccnnmb) from vwaccount return GO
But When I try to expand the list of stored procedures under the DB and the server name, I can t see my Stored Proc called "unshippedtotal"
Any ideas
2/ Another question pls: Can we use Query Analyser to do the same tasks we do with Entreprise Manager like creating and modifying tables, Creating Stored Procedures, Modifying Views... (I m more familiar with Entreprise Manager but somebody told me it s better to use Query Analyser)
I am trying to create a page that adds users to a MS SQL database. In doing so, I have run into a couple errors that I can't seem to get past. I am hoping that I could get some assistance with them.
Error from SQL Debug: --- Server: Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Procedure AdminAddUser, Line 65 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Syntax error converting character string to smalldatetime data type. ---

Below is what I currently have for my stored procedure and the pertinent code from the page itself.
I am brand spankin new to stored procedures and don't even know if what I want to do is possible. From everything I've read it seems like it will be. I have a table, punchcards. In this table are all the punch in/out times for a week. I want to create a stored proc to calculate how many hours a punchcard entry is.
Thats the dream.
The reality is that I can't even get a tinyint from a table to load to a variable and be printed out. I am using sql server 8.
Here is what I have as of this moment for my sp.
ALTER PROCEDURE usp_CalculatePunchcard AS DECLARE @dtPP DateTime SET @dtPP = (SELECT thursday_in1 FROM punchcards WHERE (punchcard_id = 1)) /* Also tried.... SELECT @dtPP=thursday_in1 FROM punchcards WHERE (punchcard_id = 1) */
PRINT @dtPP
RETURN /* for some reason i can't use GO ... even though every document i've read on stored procedures has used GO and none use RETURN */
The only output this is producing is ' Running dbo."usp_CalculatePunchcard". '
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am about to kick someone/something.
I have 3 paramaters@value1, @value2,@value3 being passed into a stored proc and each of these parameters can be blank. If one of them is blank and the rest of them have some valid values, then I should just exclude the column check for the value that is blank.
For e.g if all my parameters being passed are non- empty then I would do this select * from tblName where column1 like @value1 and column2 like @value2 and column3 like @value3
else if I have one of the parameter being passed as empty, I should ignore that parameter like if@value1 is empty then my sql should be
select * from tblName where column2 like @value2 and column3 like @value3
I don't want to do a dyanmic sql because of rights and security issue. I want it through a stored procedure only.
Also, all the three columns can have null values in the table. Please let me know what is the best possible way to do this. Thanks in advance !.
Hi, In SQL 2000, to debug a stored proc I would launch QA, right click and hit debug. How do I accomplish this with SQL 2005. I can't see that it came with QA. Thank you, Steve
I need to call the stored procedure below. Basically what I need to know is if the query returns a record? Note I would be happy if I could just return the number Zero if no records are returned. Can someone please help me out here?Here is my query so far in SQL Server. I just don't know how to return a value based upon the result of the records returned from the query. GOCREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetNameStatus]( @CountryId decimal, @NameId decimal, @DescriptionId decimal)AS SELECT Name.Active FROM Name INNER JOIN NameDescription ON Name.NameId = NameDescription.NameId WHERE Name.CountryId=@CountryId AND Name.NameId=@NameId AND NameDescription.DescriptionId=@DescriptionId AND Name.Active='Y'
I apologize for the long post but I am trying to give as much information as I can about the steps I've taken to troubleshoot this.
We have a stored procedure that builds a sql statement and executes it using the Execute command. When I execute the stored procedure through query analyzer it takes close to 5 seconds to execute. When I print out the exact same statement and execute it directly in query analyzer as "raw sql", it takes 0.5 seconds - meaning it takes 10 times longer for the code to execute in the stored proc. I altered the stored proc to execute the printed sql instead of building but it still takes the full 5 seconds and there were no changes in the execution plan. This makes me confident that the issue is not caused by the dynamic sql. I've used with recompile to make sure that the stored procedure caches the most recent execution plan. When I compare the execution plans, the stored proc uses a nested loop whereas the raw sql statement uses a hash join. Seeing that, I added the hash hint to the stored proc and doing so brought down the execution time down from 5 secs to 2 secs but still the raw sql statement uses a clustered index whereas the stored proc uses a non-clustered index and that makes the statement 4 times slower. This proves how efficient clustered indexes are over non-clustered ones, but it doesn't help me since, as far as I know, I can't force SQL Server to use the clustered index.
Does anyone know why sql server is generating such an inefficient execution plan for the stored proc compared to the execution plan that it generates when executing the raw sql statement? The only thing I can think of is that some stats are not updated and that somehow throws off the stored proc. But then again, shouldn't it affect the raw sql statement?

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
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
