View 2 Repliesgive me answer and what's the difference between view and stored procedure
View 2 RepliesHi all, Thanks in advance to any contributions to my question.Im running SQLServer 2000 in a Win 2000 Server env.Background:==========The database has many views that range from simple to complex joins ontables.The selection criteria is fixed eg. 'Where TaskTypeIdent = 2204 andOutcomeId = 123 or 2322 or 1222 andCicType = 87878 ... etc etcRequirement:===========Now what I would like to do is be able to change the 'where =' valuepart ie. 2204, dynamically if and when required, and it will berequired.In other words there won't be a DBA handy to do this when it changeshence I would like to write a front end UI to allow the user to easilymanage this.There are upwards of 200 views like this.Question:========Where in the system metadata can I access (if possible) the source ofthe View such that I can update it with the new values. eg. 'WhereTaskTypeIdent = 7627 and OutcomeId = 2322 or 94847 or 989 and CicType =1111 ... etc etcMany thanksPaul*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
View 5 Replies View RelatedFellow database developers,I would like to draw on your experience with views. I have a databasethat includes many views. Sometimes, views contains other views, andthose views in turn may contain views. In fact, I have some views inmy database that are a product of nested views of up to 6 levels deep!The reason we did this was.1. Object-oriented in nature. Makes it easy to work with them.2. Changing an underlying view (adding new fields, removing etc),automatically the higher up views inherit this new information. Thismake maintenance very easy.3. These nested views are only ever used for the reporting side of ourapplication, not for the day-to-day database use by the application.We use Crystal Reports and Crystal is smart enough (can't believe Ijust said that about Crystal) to only pull back the fields that arebeing accessed by the report. In other words, Crystal will issue aSelect field1, field2, field3 from ReportingView Where .... eventhough "ReportingView" contains a long list of fields.Problems I can see.1. Parent views generally use "Select * From childview". This meansthat we have to execute a "sp_refreshview" command against all viewswhenever child views are altered.2. Parent views return a lot of information that isn't necessarilyused.3. Makes it harder to track down exactly where the information iscoming from. You have to drill right through to the child view to seethe raw table joins etc.Does anyone have any comments on this database design? I would love tohear your opinions and tales from the trenches.Best regards,Rod.

Newbie here. I've only been using SQL for about a year now and have some minor questions about sql objects that reference other objects.
We have some views which reference other views in the joins. I will call one the primary view and the one being referenced in the joins as the secondary view.
Recently we made changes to the secondary view.
After which the primary views which referenced it would not work because of this change and had to be 'refreshed' by using drop/create scripts which essentially just dropped it and recreated the exact same view. I do not recall the exact error message that was returned other than it seemed to suggest that it could no longer see the secondary view since it had been changed. Nothing in the primary view was changed in any way, just the secondary.
Some here where I work have suggested off hand that this was a recompile of the primary view because the contents of the secondary changed.
My questions are:
1. Exactly why did this happen and is there a proper name for it when it does?
2. The same problem does not seem to occur when we have stored procedures referencing views in the joins which had just been changed. Why is that?
Thanks for any help on the matter. I greatly appreciate it.
Hello,
to make a report easier I'm developing it using a view of joined views of joined views.
Is there any significant performance penalty as opposed to just having one big select?
Cheers.
Hello There,I'm trying to create a view that has calculations dependent oncalculations, where the problem resides is that each time I make acalculation I must create an intermediate view so I can reference aprevious calculation.for example lets say I have my_table that has columns a & b. now I wanta view that has a & b, c = a + b, and d = c + 1.this is grossly simplified, the calculations I actually use are fairlycomplex and copying / pasting them is out of the question.so what I have is my_view_a which makes column c, and my my_view_finalwhich makes column d (however, in my real application I have 5 of theseviews, a/b/c/d/e/)is there anyway I can consolidate all these views into one? I wasthinking of using a stored procedure with temp tables or somethingalong those lines.I just which I can use the aliases that I create for c in d in onestep.any insight would be greatly appreciated.

The following was not written by me but I need to modify it and I am definitely no expert in SQL. It returns a list of files that a user is allowed to access based on whether or not they belong to a specific user group and that group has been granted access to the file.
Here is the SQL as it is currently:
SELECT a.ID, a.Title, a.Description, a.FileName, a.DateCreated, a.DateModified, u.UserName, a.UserID, COUNT(ga.AnswerFileID) AS ShareCount
FROM
User AS u INNER JOIN
AnswerFile AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
GroupAnswerFile AS ga LEFT OUTER JOIN
GroupUser AS gu
ON ga.GroupID = gu.GroupID ON a.ID = ga.AnswerFileID ON u.ID = a.UserID
GROUP BY a.ID, a.Title, a.Description, a.FileName, a.DateCreated, a.DateModified, a.UserID, u.UserName, gu.UserID
HAVING (gu.UserID = 2)
UNION
SELECT a.ID, a.Title, a.Description, a.FileName, a.DateCreated, a.DateModified, u.UserName, a.UserID, 0 AS ShareCount
FROM AnswerFile AS a INNER JOIN User AS u ON a.UserID = u.ID
WHERE (a.UserID = 2) AND (a.ID NOT IN SELECT AnswerFileID FROM GroupAnswerFile))
I need to modify this code to add an additional check. I have added a file that allows specific users to be granted access to files. It is called AnswerFileUser and contains AnswerFileID (the file) and UserID (the user that has been given access). I need the query to return as part of the results those files where a user has been given access regardless of their group or group access. I hope this all makes sense. Thanks for your help!

I have converted Access database to sql express. Access Database had AutoNumber FIelds for which trigger was generated by Upsizing wizard.
Now when I import data from client the autonumber field value changes because trigger is fired which distroys all links
I want to modify trigger so that it generates new number only when it is not supplied in a insert command.
Please help. Code is given below. Also suggest how to save because when I use save, it asks for a new .sql file name and a new file is generated instead of modifying the same trigger
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[T_AcControlLimit_ITrig] ON [dbo].[AcControlLimit] FOR INSERT AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @randc int, @newc int /* FOR AUTONUMBER-EMULATION CODE */
/* * RANDOM AUTONUMBER EMULATION CODE FOR FIELD 'IntAcControlCode' */
SELECT @randc = (SELECT convert(int, rand() * power(2, 30)))
SELECT @newc = (SELECT IntAcControlCode FROM inserted)
UPDATE AcControlLimit SET IntAcControlCode = @randc WHERE IntAcControlCode = @newc

Using sql 2005

HiI have developed a sql procedure for updating some xml content using SQL 2005 xQuery features.For example:Declare @xmlContent = '<books><book name="asp"/>< book name = "sql"/></books>'--Now I want to add attribute "book_id" to the xml content.SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"1" } into (/books/book[@name="asp"])[1] ')SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"2" } into (/books/book[@name="sql"])[1] ')SELECT @xmlContent--OUTPUT will be<books><book name="asp" book_id="1"/><book name="sql" book_id="2"/></books>QUESTIONQ1. Do we have any extension or plugin such that this SQl 2005 xquery feature can be incorporated in SQL 2000?Q2. If the answer for Q1. is no (as I expect), then do we have any TSQL feature in SQL 2000 for modifying xml content?I found all examples in SQl 2000 related with "openxml" function which performs the select kind of operations only. Like selecting data in XML format OR converting xml data in to tabular format. But I couldn't find any xml modification TSQL in SQl 2000 which can add element/attributes or change values.one workaround could be to consider xml content as string and use string functions to modify the content.But is there any more sensible approach available in SQL 2000?

Below is the SP that I want to modify it such that it does another thing apart from what its doing now. I want to to delete all the records corresponding to the BpDate value before this insert happens. by meaning deleting all the records, I meant to say delete all records where BpDate = @BpDate and SiteCode = @SiteCode.
CREATE PROC CabsSchedule_Save
@JulianDate smallint,
@SiteCode smallint,
@BpDate smallint,
@CalendarDay smallint,
@BillPeriod smallint,

I need to UPDATE a column by removing only the first occurance of $$sp;. I use the following to get an idea of what I have:
SELECT Reporting_Title_Html FROM Lab_Test Where RTRIM(Reporting_Title_Html)='$$sp;'
Reporting_Title_Html
------------------------------
$$sp;
$$sp;
$$sp;
$$sp;
$$sp;Thyroid maintenance required;$$sp..........
Get 5 Records....One record has multiple occurances of $$sp throughout the Reporting_Title_Html column.
I thought I could do:
Update Lab_Test Set Reporting_Title_Html=' ' Where RTRIM(Reporting_Title_Html)='$$sp;'
But I can't lose the trailing data from record #5. This is just a small sampling of what I'm trying to fix.
Any Ideas???
I've thought about REPLACE but that would replace all the $$sp's and I only want to change the very first one from $$sp to ' ' --> blank

I face a task to edit definition for bunch of sp: cleaning <IF EXISTS THEN DROP> and changing CREATE for ALTER.
Do you think there is a good way to do it in batch and take original source from system.tables (even we have this as physical file in VSS)?
Surely enough <IF Exists then drop> is not uniformed, could be variations with syntax and on diff number of lines, IF Exists... vs OBJECT_ID is not null etc...
CREATE__sp_PROCEDUREA vs CREATE_spPROcedure (with diff spacing).
