Calling Functions On Another Database
Apr 11, 2004
Hey guys, I recently found out u can actaully JOIN tables that are on different dbs as long as they are on the same SQL Server by specifying [DATABASE].[DATABASEOWNER].[TABLE]. I now have a question tho. Can you access functions the same way? i have tried using the same syntax, but I get an error saying 'Invalid object name'
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Dear Everybody,
Hi again!
Supposing I have an SQL Server Function named Fxn1 which returns a VARCHAR(6) value. I want to use this returned value in another function named Fxn2 but Fxn2 accepts a parameter of type INT. Fxn2 itself returns an INT value. This has to be achieved in a single line.
The following line of code will not work in SQL Server. How should I achieve this?
declare @Res INT
EXEC @Res = Fxn2 (CONVERT( INT, Fxn1 ))
Thanx in advance!

I have a rather complex function (part of a production planning engine) that is written in VBA, and is part of my front end app. I'd like to be able to somehow call this function from either a sproc or DTS package in SQL. Is this possible, or am I going to have to convert the function to a SQL sproc (ugh)?

I have an exec() statement in a stored procedure:
Code:
exec('insert into foo
select a, b, c, dbo.bar(d, e)
from baz')
dbo.bar() is a function defined elsewhere. It works OK
by itself.
Getting this error when running the stored procedure:
Code:
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'bar'. No entry found with that name.
How do I force SQL Server to recognize the function's name?
Thanks.

Hi, I am writing a stored proc that will so a very simple search for users in the database. In my database I am storing a birthday as a datetime column called 'bday'. Users can search for people between a certain age range; say 23 - 30.
Here is my search query:
alter procedure sp_wm_quickSearch
@lookingFor int,
@mySex int,
@country varchar(500),
@ageTo int,
@ageFrom int,
@state varchar(10),
@userid int
as
select * from
wm_user a
inner join
wm_user_details b
on
a.userid=b.userid
where
a.lookingfor = 0 and
a.sex = 1 and
a.country = 'United States of America' and
a.state = 'Washington'
I found a simple function that looks like it can do what i need it to do:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnYearsApart
(
@FromDate DATETIME,
@ToDate DATETIME
)
RETURNS INT
AS
BEGIN
RETURN CASE
WHEN @FromDate > @ToDate THEN NULL
WHEN DATEPART(day, @FromDate) > DATEPART(day, @ToDate) THEN DATEDIFF(month, @FromDate, @ToDate) - 1
ELSE DATEDIFF(month, @FromDate, @ToDate)
END / 12
END
MY QUESTIONS IS THIS:
How do I call this function in my query and pass it the age, and use the age as a search param. I imagine it woudl look something like this:
select * from
wm_user a
inner join
wm_user_details b
on
a.userid=b.userid
where
a.lookingfor = 0 and
a.sex = 1 and
a.country = 'United States of America' and
a.state = 'Washington' and
fnYearsApart(a.bday, Some DateTime.Now function) < 24 and > 30
but this line doesn't work: (obviously i need to replace datetime.now
fnYearsApart(a.bday, Some DateTime.Now function) < 24 and > 30
Thanks!

Hi ,
I have a question about calling functions in SQl Server 2005.
Let's say that I have created as a dbo a function called Calculations.
If I want to call it from T-SQL I will write Select dbo.Calculations (arguments if any) etc.
My question is If I can skip the "dbo" part. Call the function without using the dbo .
Can I do that ?
Should I create the function as supervisor ? Does Sql Server has a property or something which will allow me to call the function without using the "dbo." ?
Thank you

I have a number of databases that require a set of common functions. I'd like to place all those functions in a central DB. I'm having trouble calling them using the syntax FunctionDB.GetParamLength() for example, which works within the FunctionDB database.
Any ideas/suggestions? I really don't want to maintain seperate copies of the functions across 5+ databases.

Hi,I alredy tried to search this problem in last posts, but I couldn'tfind the answer.I try to access via Extended SP the method in a dll.I registered the dll as a ExSP, with a name of method. But aftercalling it in T-SQL, I became such a error message:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot find thefunction SendGeneralNotify_FromA in the library [LibraryName.dll].Reason: 127(error not found).In this dll I have only one class an it has events, properities andmethods.I will to call one of these methods.aha ... very importand. Please don't say that this dll should bewritten in c++ because it is made like that (no VB).Maybe somebody of you have an example how I should call it, to becamean access on this dll?Sorry for my not well english.With best regards, looking forward for reply-----------------------------MatikJoin Bytes!

Hi
We have a user-defined function that can be called directly via SQL (in SQL Server Management Studio) without error. We would like to use this function to populate a column, whist data is being processed within Integration Services. Using an OLE DB Command transformation to achieve this would seem the most appropriate.
The following was inserted for the SQLCommand property:
EXEC ? = dbo.GetOrderlineStatus(@dt_required = ?, @dt_invoice = ?, @dt_despatch = ?, @ch_status = ?, @si_suffix = ?, @re_quantity = ?, @vc_invoice_id = ?, @vc_order_id = ?)
However, when the Refresh button is pressed we are presented with the error below:
Error at Load Orderline [OLE DB Command [15171]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8004E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x8004E14 Description: "Invalid parameter number".
If we use SET instead of EXEC (e.g. SET ? = dbo.GetOrderlineStatus(@dt_required = ?, @dt_invoice = ?, @dt_despatch = ?, @ch_status = ?, @si_suffix = ?, @re_quantity = ?, @vc_invoice_id = ?, @vc_order_id = ?)) the following error is produced:
Error at Load Orderline [OLE DB Command [15171]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error".
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Neil

I am writing a Sql Function in CLR. That function receives some data for processing. For processing the data, the function requires some additonal data to be fetched from the same database.
So, how does a CLR function execute SELECT or other Sql statements (or does it need to open up a SqlConnection for the purpose)???

how do i split the output to 12months and get from the database and sort according to the months
output example:
fuel for each car acording to month:
car jan feb .... nov dec total
nissan 1000 1250 ... 1300 1100 17120
honda 2300 2430 ... 2340 2200 25410
while inside the database, the fuel is based on every receipt:
receipt(car, total, date)
(nissan, 100, 01/01/05)
(nissan, 110, 09/01/05)
(nissan, 70, 13/01/05)

I was playing around with the new SQL 2005 CLR functionality andremembered this discussion that I had with Erland Sommarskog concerningperformance of scalar UDFs some time ago (See "Calling sp_oa* infunction" in this newsgroup). In that discussion, Erland made thefollowing comment about UDFs in SQL 2005:[color=blue][color=green]>>The good news is that in SQL 2005, Microsoft has addressed several of[/color][/color]these issues, and the cost of a UDF is not as severe there. In fact fora complex expression, a UDF in written a CLR language may be fasterthanthe corresponding expression using built-in T-SQL functions.<<I thought the I would put this to the test using some of the same SQLas before, but adding a simple scalar CLR UDF into the mix. The testinvolved querying a simple table with about 300,000 rows. Thescenarios are as follows:(A) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column(B) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column and as a criterionin the WHERE clause(C) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column(D) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion in theWHERE clause(E) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column(F) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion inthe WHERE clauseA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(295310 row(s) affected)A: 1563(150003 row(s) affected)B: 906(295310 row(s) affected)C: 2703(150003 row(s) affected)D: 2533(295310 row(s) affected)E: 2060(150003 row(s) affected)F: 2190The scalar CLR UDF function was significantly faster than the classicscalar UDF, even for this very simple function. Perhaps a more complexfunction would have shown even a greater difference. Based on this, Imust conclude that Erland was right. Of course, it's still faster tostick with basic built-in functions like CASE.In another test, I decided to run some queries to compare built-inaggregates vs. a couple of simple CLR aggregates as follows:(G) Calculate averages by group using the built-in AVG aggregate(H) Calculate averages by group using a CLR aggregate that similatesthe built-in AVG aggregate(I) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group (average excluding highestand lowest values) using built-in aggregates(J) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group using a CLR aggregatespecially designed for this purposeA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(59 row(s) affected)G: 313(59 row(s) affected)H: 890(59 row(s) affected)I: 216(59 row(s) affected)J: 846It seems that the CLR aggregates came with a significant performancepenalty over the built-in aggregates. Perhaps they would pay off if Iwere attempting a very complex type of aggregation. However, at thispoint I'm going to shy away from using these unless I can't find a wayto do the calculation with standard SQL.In a way, I'm happy that basic SQL still seems to be the fastest way toget things done.

hello Im having a difficult time translating this query from Access to SQL because it uses the First/Last functions.
I have a 'Projects' Table and a 'Project_Comments' table, each has a 'Project_ID' field which links the 2 together. What I need to do is retrieve a Project List from the Projects Table and also the first Comment of each project based on the Commend_date field in the Project_Comments table. This is the MS ACCESS query:
SELECT Projects.Project_Number, Projects.Project_Name, First(Project Comments.Comment_Date), First(Project_Comments.Notes)
FROM Projects Left Join Projec_Comments ON
Projects.Project_Number = Project_Comments.Project_Number
GROUP BY Projects.Project_Number, Projects.Project_Name
Now I can use Min() for the Date instead of First, however I dont know what to do with the Notes field. Any help on how to get this over to sql would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I have created a function that returns a comma seperated list of product id's from a table. I need to call this function from a stored procedure to help filter my product results, something like the following:
SET @SQL = 'SELECT dbo.Products.ProductID FROM dbo.Products WHERE dbo.Products.ProductID IN (' + dbo.GetModels('dbo.Products.ProductID', '') + '))'
The problem I am having when executing the above is:
"Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'dbo.Products.ProductID' to data type int."
Can anyone shed some light on how I can call the function, feeding through the product ID from the row of the select statement I am trying to execute (if this makes sense).
Any help would be great.

Hello,
I've created a function that performs modulo. I understand that SQL server 2000 / 2005 uses % for modulo, but we have an application that was written for Oracle. Oracle has a mod(dividend, divisor) function.
As to not rewite the queries, I would like to implement the function below:
the function executes properly but I must prefix it with the dbo schema.
Net: I can execute --- select dbo.mod(9,2) and it returns a 1 just like it should.
but I can not execute --- select mod(9,2) I receive the error "'mod' is not a recognized function name." on SQL 2000 and 2005.
If I can execute select mod(9,2) then I won't need to re-write any queries.
Also, on SQL 2005, I have tried to adjust the default shema, and the execute as clause, but neither helped my cause.
I'm going to try building the function in the CLR, but I think I will be faced with the same problem.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Tom
create function mod
(
@dividend int,
@divisor int
)
RETURNS int
as
begin
declare @mod int
select @mod = @dividend % @divisor

Hi,
I have to calculate data in function with "EXEC". During runtime I get the Error:
"Only functions and extended stored procedures can be executed from within a function."
I would use a Stored Procedure, but the function is to be called from a view. I don't understand, why that should not be possible. Is there any way to shut that message down or to work around?
btw: Storing all the data in a table, would mean a lot of work, I rather not like to do. ;-)
Thx for any help

After some application activity, I attempt a merge replication again and it fails with a "DLL could not be loaded" yadda, yadda message. These seem to be the loaded DLL's at this point.

I'm at a loss as to why SQL CE cannot load unless I am out of my 32MB of process space for some reason.
(App on an Intermec 751 with WM5 and 128MB RAM)
TIA for any help

I usually access stored procedures using SQL data source. But now I need a string returned from the database. If I write a function in SQL how do I access it from an aspx.vb file?

I hope this is a right form for ADO .net type of question.
My question is, can you call SQL function the way you call stored procedure from ADO .net. I coded it this way and does not seems to be getting result set back. The DataReader is seems to be coming back with nothing. Can someone post an example. I know you can write "SELECT udf_function()" but I really mean the way the stored procedure is called. Thanks.
