Is it possible to call a user-defined function without prefixing it
with 'dbo.' within a SELECT clause somehow? Just curious; it's not a
big issue but just a stylistic one for me.
Thanks!

hai,
the problem is - I have created a userdefined function using SQL 2000
create function getfulldate (@date varchar(10))returns datetimeasbegindeclare @getfulldate datetime set @getfulldate = dateadd (mi,55,@date)
return @getfulldateend
and normally we call this in the SQL statements as
select *, dbo.getfulldate('2006-05-03') from emp
This works fine and what I need was, I need to invoke the user-defined function like
select *, getfulldate('2006-05-03') from emp that is, without using "dbo".
If I call in that manner, it gives error as - 'getfulldate' is not a recognized function name.
So, here what is the purpose of dbo and can I call in my desired manner as mentioned above.
anyone guide me, thanks!
I have UDF in a database on SQL2000 server. Is it possible to call this UDF from other server (SQL2005)? I did setup a linked server to SQL2000
Call to the following function returns an error:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'srv2000'.
select [srv2000].db_test.dbo.F_TEST()
I have the following procedure, that calls a Padding function to pad characters to a field.
Here is what the procedure looks like
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Pad_Left]
@Table VARCHAR(255),
@Column VARCHAR(255),
@PadChar CHAR(1),
@PadToLen INT
AS
DECLARE @Query Varchar(5000)
SET @Query = 'UPDATE ' + @Table + '
SET ' + @Column + ' = dbo.Function_PadLeft(' + @Column + ', ''' + @PadChar + ''', ' + @PadToLen + ')'
EXECUTE(@Query)
GO
When I run this I get the error
Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Pad_Left, Line 13
Syntax error converting the varchar value 'UPDATE Lincoln
SET baths = dbo.Function_PadLeft(baths, '0', ' to a column of data type int.
But when I just run this query, it works
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Pad_Left]
@Table VARCHAR(255),
@Column VARCHAR(255),
@PadChar CHAR(1),
@PadToLen INT
AS
UPDATE Lincoln
SET Baths = dbo.Function_PadLeft(Baths, '0', 4)
GO
Why would one work but not the other? I don't understand, as they are the same thing, just one calls the function dynamically?
I must be missing something very obvious
Thanks for any help!
I seem to be getting tasks that I am not familiar with these days. I am a
guy that has coded it all in the asp page or in the code behind in .NET.
This problem is outlined below and I need a help / advice on doing this. I
had the flow of the 3 parts to it expanded below. A call is made to a Stored
Procedure, The SP then calls a user defined function that runs SQL, this
returns a 1 or 0 to the SP which then returns the value back to the call on
the asp page. This is a lot I know but it is the way the lead guy wants it
done. Any help so I can keep most of the hair I have left is appreciated :-)
Short list of process flow:
1. Form.asp calls to rx_sp_HasAccessToClient in SQL SERVER
2. rx_sp_HasAccessToClient then calls ab_HasAccessToClient
3. ab_HasAccessToClient runs SQL command on db and sends return bit back to
rx_sp_HasAccessToClient
4. rx_sp_HasAccessToClient then sends this back to the call in the Form.asp
page
5. Form.asp then checks the Boolean and if 1 then show or if 0 then deny.

When i call user defined function from stored procedure, i am getting an error.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'dbo.MyFunction'.
why this error is happening?.
i am calling this way... dbo.MyFunction(param1,param2)
I have several UDFs created. Inside one of the UDFs I need to execute a dynamic SQL statement and then take that result and do something else with it, before returning the final value.
I know you can not execute a stored proce from inside a function. I also know you can not use the EXEC statement.
I did read that you could use an external stored procedure and/or managed CLR procedures inside a function.
I have created a managed procedure CLR (C#) that simply executes a passed statemetn and returns the value to the calling routine. I have this all coded and is working fine.
However, I am struggling with knowing how to call this CLR procedure from inside my function, seeing how I can not use EXEC statement.
Any advice on how to do this?
Thanks,
Bruce
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
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.

I have a UDF that takes my input and returns the next valid business day date. My valid date excludes weekends and holidays.
It works perfect except for one issue. It doesn't check to see if today's date is a holiday.
I pass a query to sql server like so " select dbo.getstartdate('01/ 10/2007',2)"
It then moves ahead two business days and returns that date.
Here is the current code. Hopefully someone can tell me how to do the holiday check on the current date.

Hi everyone,
I am tring to pass acomma delimited string to a function and this function is parsing the string so that I can see individual values so for example I am passing 1,2,3,4,5 as a parameter to my function and I am parsing this string so that I can write something like this
Select * from tableA where userID in(1,2,3,4)
It is working fine. Only problem is if the user passes word 'all' instead of 1,2,3,4 then I have to doSelect * from tableA
My function looks like this. How can I modify this function if I pass 'all' as a paramater. Any help will be appreciated.CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[ParseText2File] (@p_text varchar(4000), @p_Delimeter char(1))
RETURNS @results TABLE (id varchar(100))
AS
BEGIN
declare @i1 varchar(200)
declare @i2 varchar(200)
declare @tempResults Table (id varchar(100))
while len(@p_text) > 0 and charindex
(@p_Delimeter, @p_text) <> 0
begin
select @i1 = left(@p_text, charindex(@p_Delimeter, @p_text) - 1)
insert @tempResults select @i1
select @p_text = right(@p_text, len(@p_text) - charindex(@p_Delimeter,@p_text))

How can I create a user defined function in SQL and call it inline from a SQL statement? I need the ability to execute a statement such as:
select myFunc(x,y) from table
I need myFunc(x,y) to return a value, not a recordset and use that value in the select statement. Any and all ideas would be appreciated.
Dear friends,
I am a new user for SQL server. Coming from an oracle background, I find it very difficult to live without user defined functions. At the moment, I urgently need to have a function returning an custom-made ID string, so that it can be used in one of my stored procedures. I have heard the rumours that SQL server 7 does NOT support user defined functions, (which SQL 6.5 does). I would be really grateful if anyone can clarify this for me, and if possible, suggest a get-around approach.
Thanks in advance!

I am trying to compare the data from one table (shipments) with the data from a view. The point of the function is to match the correct territory with the account depending on the data. Basically, I this deals with accounts that are transfering from one territory to another. The transfers take effect on the first day of the month, retroactive, therefore we need to allocate the sales data to the correct territory in the shipments table. Here is my function. Can someone tell me how I can get this to work and insert a territory ID for the account that has transfered into the shipments table?
CREATE FUNCTION fnShipments ()
RETURNS @Shipments TABLE (AccountID CHAR(10), DateInvoice DateTime, DollarShipments Money, TerritoryID CHAR(10))
AS
BEGIN
INSERT @Shipments (AccountID, DateInvoice, DollarShipments, TerritoryID)
SELECT Shipments.AccountID, Shipments.DateInvoice, DollarShipments, ISNULL((SELECT TerritoryID FROM vwAccountTransfers
WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID
AND vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth =
(SELECT MIN(EffectiveMonth)
FROM vwAccountTransfers
WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID
AND DatePart(m,Shipments.DateInvoice) < vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth)),
(SELECT TerritoryID FROM vwAccountTransfers
WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID
AND vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth Is Null )
) AS Territory
FROM Shipments
ORDER BY Shipments.AccountID, Shipments.DateInvoice;
RETURN

I need a UDF that will do the following:
User: Will be sending me a datetime e.g '9 Nov 2004 15:00:00'
I want the UDF to do the following for me
Return in hours the difference between what the user has send and now (lets say now = '10 Nov 2004 11:00:00')
So the UDF will return to me 20.
But I dont want 20, I want the UDF to avoid any all hours which are not work related (any time after 16h00
until 8h00 in the morning), so I want this UDF to return 4. That means from '9 Nov 2004 15:00:00' I have calculated
1hr until 16h00 and 3hrs from 8 until 11h00 on '10 Nov 2004 11:00:00'
AGAIN IT MUST NOT CALCULATE WEEKENDS. Lets say '12 Nov 2004 15:00:00' was Friday and now = '15 Nov 2004 11:00:00', I must still
get 4 as a return from UDF
I would also like now to be my getdate(), but it seems like you can't use it in UDF
I create the following UDF just for learning purposes and I cannot seem to get it to return a value.

Hi,
Iam working on one user defined function which will take week & year as argument and returns sunday date of that particular week in that year. for example if i give (15,2007) as argument it shud give 2007-04-08 as result. Plz anybody help this on this issue.
I am accustomed to doing most of my function work in Access, but the boss would really like it if I could shedule some cubes to do the stuff that takes forever when you run it live.
To that end, I have an Access function that I call to get a field value for a query. I would like to be able to create an User Defined Function on the SQL server and call that function as a field value in a view. I have searched the forums and have not really found anything that wants to make sense to me as to how to do this.
The access function is as follows:
Public Function BuyerDeltas(IFSDate As Date, PODate As Date) As Long
If IFSDate < (Date + 14) Then
BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 3 - PODate
ElseIf IFSDate < (Date + 29) Then
BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 7 - PODate
ElseIf IFSDate > (Date + 28) Then
BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 10 - PODate
Else
MsgBox "This should not be possible!", vbOKOnly, "Fix It!!!!!!!"
End If
End Function
The view that this is called from contains the IFSDate and PODate fields and I am able to call the function from the access query, but this is completely different than what I have seen in the help files on SQL.
I would love to be able to keep plugging away at doing this myself, but the boss also is pushing me to get it done and he doesn't want me taking forever to do it.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I posted a question sometime back about any one has written a function which converts a given date to a a new timezone.
As it turns out I have actually written the function and it is functionally sound.
the issue I am not facing is the performace.
The Algorithm is pretty simple.
step 1
I have create a table called TZ1 which has the TImezoneCODE (PST,EST..), daylightsavingsstart (DATETIME on which the daylight savings start), daylightsavingsend ( end of DLS) and offset (EG -8 for PST, -5 for EST etc)
step 2
I check the timezone and pick out corresponding start and enddate for daylight savings.
Step 3
Depending on where the date lies I create a new date by adding offset to the original datetime (+1) for the new date and then return this new datetime.
As simple as this looks the response time is 16 times than that of a select statement without the function.
Do you see something that I can tune to get a better response time.
Heres my code

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is driving me crazy.I need to create a UDF that would return a TRUE/FALSE (bit) value basedon a comparison it does.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SelectedByApplication(@ApplicationID int,@TableToChecknvarchar(50),@ColumnToComparenvarchar(50),@ValueInTableint)RETURNS BIT ASBEGINDECLARE @SQLNVARCHAR(1000)DECLARE @Param NVARCHAR(500)DECLARE @Result intSET @SQL = N'SELECT @result = COUNT(*) FROM [' + @TableToCheck + '] '+'WHERE [' + @ColumnToCompare + '] = @ValueInTable ANDApplicationID = @ApplicationID'SET @Param = N'@result int out, @ValueInTable int, @ApplicationIDint'EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL, @Param, @result out, @ValueInTable,@ApplicationIDif @result > 0return 1return 0ENDAll I need the function to do is fill in a column based on whetherthere is a relation between a list of data and the item. I'm trying touse it in the following query:SELECT *, EXEC dbo.SelectedByApplication(4, 'IPM_Application_DataType','DataTypeID', DataTypeID)FROM IPM_DataType DTThe idea is to make this call and then be able to populate a list ofcheckboxes based on the information it returns. It should returnsomething similiar to:Column1 Column2 UDFColumn1 SomeValue 02 OtherValue 13 DifferentValue 04 LastValue 1After reading some of the posts and discovering you can't executedynamic SQL in a UDF I decided to split the function into a functionand stored procedure:CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SelectedByApplication(@ApplicationID int,@TableToChecknvarchar(50),@ColumnToComparenvarchar(50),@ValueInTableint)RETURNS BIT ASBEGINDeclare @Result INTEXEC DynamicCompare @ApplicationID, @TableToCheck, @ColumnToCompare,@ValueInTable, @Resultif(@Result > 0)return 1return 0ENDCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.DynamicCompare(@ApplicationID int,@TableToChecknvarchar(50),@ColumnToComparenvarchar(50),@ValueInTableint,@Resultint out)ASDECLARE @SQLNVARCHAR(1000)DECLARE @Param NVARCHAR(500)SET @SQL = N'SELECT @result = COUNT(*) FROM [' + @TableToCheck + ']' +'WHERE [' + @ColumnToCompare + '] = @ValueInTable ANDApplicationID = @ApplicationID'SET @Param = N'@result int out, @ValueInTable int, @ApplicationIDint'EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL, @Param, @result out, @ValueInTable,@ApplicationIDI get the same error message about only being able to execute functionsand extended stored procedures in a user defined function.Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can dynamically execute thisquery? The reason I say dynamic is I need this same comparison forabout 25 different tables. Thanks!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a user defined function that may be called multiple times inthe same query - here's a rough exampleselect col1, get_random_number(), col2, col3, get_random_number() fromtable1The problem I am having is that I need to have both calls to the userdefined function return the same value if it is called multiple timesfor one row. The values returned from the query would be somethig likethis -John 23456 Engineer Junior 23456Frank 33333 Engineer Senior 33333Tom 80331 Engineer Junior 80331I have thought about having two seperate udf's likeget_random_number() and use_last_random_number(), but I'm not sure howto store the value of the get_random_number() to be used byuse_last_random_number(). These udfs are used in bulk load requests,so performance is a big issue. Any suggestions would be greatlyappreciated. I know the example is kind of silly, but I think itillustrates the problem.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
How can I do dynamical exec to query in user-defined function? At the end I need to return the result.
Thank's

I have a user defined function (UDF) that takes 2 parameters. These parameters will be mapped from OLE DB source column values. I want the function result to be a new column that will be mapped to an OLE DB destination. Should this be done using a lookup task, OLE DB command task, or...? If this is possible I would appreciate a very specific example of how it's done.
BTW I tried using a lookup task with a SQL command before the UDF idea occurred to me and ran into problems using parameters in the SQL query:
Parameter Information cannot be derived from SQL statments. Set parameter information before preparing command.
I've seen the posts about going to the advanced tab and messing with the parameters there but I was hoping using a UDF would be easier, if it can be done.
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm trying to write an aggregat in c#.It's no problem for sum or multiplication aggregates.
But when I try to use an array to stor the values in it, to compare them with each other,
I get the Message:
Fehler 1 Type "AggregatClr.AggregatClr" is marked for native serialization, but field "Werte" of type "AggregatClr.AggregatClr" is of type "mscorlib.System.Array" which is a non-value type. Native serialization types can only have fields of blittable types. If you wish to have a field of any other type, consider using different kind of serialization format, such as User Defined Serialization. AggregatClr
And when I try it with User Defined instead of Native:
Fehler 1 Type "AggregatClr.AggregatClr" is marked for user-defined serialization, but does not implement the "System.Data.Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.IBinarySerialize" interface. AggregatClr
What does that means? How can I do that??
Is it possible to use an Array in a User Defined Aggregat??
Thanks
Pam
