Capturing Values From Executing A String
Jun 14, 1999
I currently have a need to dynamically build an sql statement that always returns a single value when executed. The sql statement is always the same except the database name reference in the statment.
What I need is to be able to capture that value for later use in the procedure. Since this is a stored procedure, I can't use the "USE" statment to switch databases and I haven't been able to figure this out using the Execute statement. I can execute the string, but I can't capture the value.
I'm simply trying to execute the same set of sql statements in a stored procedure without hardcoding database names or build an identical stored procedure in all our databases.
Any help is appreciated.

I have a bit of code that executes an INSERT statement to add a record to an existing table. This table of course has an automatically incrementing ID field, and I'd like to somehow have my INSERT statement return the value of that ID field so that I can automatically show the user the record they've added.
Is there a clean way to do this?

I have a string variable
string str1="1,2,3,4,5";
I have to use the above comma separated values into a SQL Search query whose datatype is integer. How would i do this Search query in the IN Operator of SQL Server. My query is :
declare @id varchar(50)
set @id= '3,4,6,7'
set @id=(select replace(@id,'''',''))-- in below select query Id is of Integer datatype
select *from ehsservice where id in(@id)
But this query throws following error message:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '3,4,6,7' to data type int.

I have a table that lists math Calculations with "User Friendly Names" that look like the following:
([Sales Units]*[AUR])
([Comp Sales Units]*[Comp AUR])
I need to replace all the "User Friendly Names" with "System Names" in the calculations, i.e., I need "Sales Units" to be replaced with "cSalesUnits", "AUR" replaced with "cAUR", "Comp Sales Units" with "cCompSalesUnits", and "Comp AUR" with "cCompAUR". (It isn't always as easy as removing spaces and added 'c' to the beginning of the string...)
The new formulas need to look like the following:
([cSalesUnits]*[cAUR])
([cCompSalesUnits]*[cCompAUR])
I have created a CTE of all the "Look-up" values, and have tried all kinds of joins, and other functions to achieve this, but so far nothing has quite worked.
How can I accomplish this?
Here is some SQL for set up. There are over 500 formulas that need updating with over 400 different "look up" possibilities, so hard coding something isn't really an option.
DECLARE @Synonyms TABLE
(
UserFriendlyName VARCHAR(128)
, SystemNames VARCHAR(128)
)
INSERT INTO @Synonyms
( UserFriendlyName, SystemNames )
[Code] .....

I have SQL Server 2012 SSIS. I have Excel source and OLE DB Destination.I have problem with importing CustomerSales column.CustomerSales values like 1000.00,2000.10,3000.30,NotAvailable.So I have decimal values and nvarchar mixed in on Excel column. This is requirement for solution.However SSIS reads only numeric values correctly and nvarchar values are set as Null. Why?
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Import_CustomerSales](

Hi,
I have written a stored proc to bulk insert the data from a data file.
I have a requirement that i need to insert the data into a table of which the name is not known. I mean to say that the table name will be passed as a parameter to the stored proc. And also i need to insert the date that will also be passed as the parameter to the stored proc
The follwing statement works fine if i give the table name directly in the query
Code Snippet
DECLARE @LastUpdate varchar(20)
SET @LastUpdate = 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM'
INSERT INTO Category
SELECT MSISDN, @LastUpdate FROM OPENROWSET( BULK '\remotemachinedatafile.txt',
FORMATFILE = '\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt',
FIRSTROW = 2) AS a
To satisfy my requirement ( i.e passing the table name dynamically , and the date) , i have formed the query string ( exact one as above ) and passing it to EXEC statement. But its failing as explained below
Code Snippet
@Category - Will be passed as a parameter to the stored proc
DECLARE @vsBulkSQL VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @LastUpdate varchar(20)
SET @LastUpdate = 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM'
SELECT @vsBulkSQL ='INSERT INTO '+ @Category + ' SELECT MSISDN, ''' + @LastUpdate +''' FROM OPENROWSET ' + '( BULK ' + '''' + '\remotemachinedatafile.txt'+ ''''+ ' ,' +
+ ' FORMATFILE ' + '=' + ''''+ '\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt'+ ''''+ ',' +
' FIRSTROW ' + '=' + '2' + ')' + ' AS a'
Print @vsBulkSQL - This prints the folliwing statement
INSERT INTO Category SELECT MSISDN, 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM' FROM OPENROWSET ( BULK '\remotemachineDataFile.txt' , FORMATFILE ='\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt', FIRSTROW =2) AS a
Exec @vsBulkSQL - This statement gives the following error
The name 'INSERT INTO Sports SELECT MSISDN, 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM' FROM OPENROWSET ( BULK '\remotemachineSecond.txt' , FORMATFILE ='\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt', FIRSTROW =2) AS a' is not a valid identifier.
Can any one please point out where am i doing wrong? Or do i need to do anything else to achive the same

Hello,
I am working with ASP.NET/VB and Microsoft SQL 2000 database.
I have a search form where keywords are submitted.
Consider I write the the keywords 'asp' and 'book'. The results page is called as follows: results.aspx?search=asp%20book
Then I use this script in results.aspx to put the keywords in a string:
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)
Dim keywords() As String = Request.QueryString("search").Split(CChar(""))
End Sub
My table is set for FULL TEXT SEARCH.
Consider the SQL when I look for records containing 'asp' and 'book':
SELECT *
FROM dbo.documents
WHERE CONTAINS (*, 'ASP or BOOK')
This SQL looks only for these words. What I need is to look for records that contain the Keywords included in the string keywords().
Can you tell me how to access the string values in the SQL and use it?
Thanks,
Miguel

SQL neophyte hoping this is an easy answer...
I'm trying to obtain an average for a set of string values. "Huh?" (In an investment portfolio, some securities have ratings, e.g., AAA or Aa2 or BBB, etc., and to obtain an overall rating for the portfolio you have to find a way to average the string values from each individual security.) I figured I'd assign a numerical value to each, average, and convert back to string. My first attempts have been a little futile...can anyone help?

HI!
I do a select and concatinating the answers into a one column table @tab(string).
Is it possible to format these values like this:
GENAV DELAV TOTIP RES
12 myvalues www.notech.com 1
1 starthere 192.168.0.2 1
125 or here www.hereistomanychar.s 0
max 3 max 10 max 22 max 1
the first column max 3 characters the second column max 10 char...
I want to do this to get a good view of the data i the table @tab
Here is the select:
INSERT INTO @tab
SELECT Convert( varchar, GENAV)+ ' ' + Convert( varchar, DELAV)+ ' ' + Convert( varchar, TOTIP) ' ' + Convert( varchar, RES)
from dbo.MOVE
where DATE between @starttime and @theEndTime
With this select it looks like:
12 myvalues www.notech.com 1

125 or here www.hereistomanychar.s 0
This is very complicated to read!

Hi,
I have a web application using Stored Procedure (SP). I see that there's a SP taking long time to execute. I try to capture it by Profiler Tool, and find out that with the same SP on the same db with the same parameter. The duration of executing by my web app is far bigger than the duration of executing on SQl server management studio - query window
Please see the image through this url http://kyxao.net/127/ExecutionProblem.png
Any ideas for this issue?

Others I want to write an SQL query grouped by this column, Trainee should be one group, Contractor should be another different group, Others should be another different group and then every thing else ( 766/IT ,777/HR ,890/EG, 012/AS) should be grouped together as one group.

This is a portion of my stored procedure in T-SQL
CREATE PROCEDURE GetPoll
(
@PollID INT,
@PollQuestion VARCHAR(1000) Output,
@PollOptions VARCHAR(1000) Output,
@PollPercentages DECIMAL Output
)
AS
SELECT @PollQuestion = (SELECT PollQuestion FROM Polls WHERE PollID = @PollID)
SELECT @PollOptions = (SELECT [Option] FROM PollOPtions WHERE PollID = @PollID)
*SELECT @PollPercentages = (SELECT [Option], COUNT([Option]) As Num_Votes FROM Votes WHERE PollID = 1 GROUP BY [Option])
The final part(*) of this SQL will return more than one value, so is it possible for me to return all that information in one varaible with one SELECT query?? Or would I need to use a loop and query a value at a time, and store it into a delimited string?
thx in advance...

I have a column containing values for different languages. I want to cut out the values per languate in a seperat column.
The syntax is a 2 letter country code followed by : the value is contained in double quotes. each languate is separated by a ; (except for the last one)
EX ur English, Dutch and Swedish:US:"Project/Prescription sale";NL:"Project/specificatie";SW:"Objektsförsäljning"
The result would Be
column header US
with value Project/Prescription sale
next column header NL
with value Project/specificatie etc.
Here are table examples:
IF OBJECT_ID('[#SALETYPE]','U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [#SALETYPE]
CREATE TABLE [#SALETYPE](
[SaleType_Id] [int] NOT NULL,
[name] [nvarchar](239) NOT NULL,

I have a program which feeds back information to a table within my database. The annoying thing is that only 1 of the table cells has all of the information I need so essentially I have a large string of data I need to retrieve values from.I retrieve my cell with a simple select details from alerts where ID = (alert number).The results I have are as follows:
[INFO] Dashboard Output Information:
[LastUpdated]
Time=09:59
[LastProcessed]
LastProcessed=*2911
Updated=09:59
[LastReceived]
LastReceived=#10
Updated=09:59
As you can see I have a list (its larger but this is a sample), the only thing I need are the values for each section so for last processed i want the 2911 so I can use it on my dashboard and the last received I want the 10 for that section.i have read about using substrings but am really not sure where to start and how I'd go about getting these values to then use elsewhere?

I have a customer who has recently migrated their SQL server to a newserver. In doing so, a portion of a stored procedure has stoppedworking. The code snippet is below:declare @Prefixes varchar(8000),declare @StationID int-- ...select @Prefixes = ''select @Prefixes = @Prefixes + Prefix + '|||'from Devicewhere Station_ID = @StationIDEssentially, we are trying to triple-pipe delimit all the deviceprefixes located at a specified station. This code has workedflawlessly for the last 10 months, but when the database was restoredon the new server, @Prefixes only contains the prefix for the lastdevice.Is there a server, database, or connection option that permits this towork that I am not aware of? Why would this work on the old server andnot on the new? (BTW - both servers are running SQL 2000 StandardSP4).Thanks!

Any idea why this expression would not work in SSRS?
Based on a expression on a group textbox I get 0 records that match:
=Iif(Fields!ACCRUAL_CODE.Value <> "A", CountDistinct(Fields!LOAN_NBR.Value), 0)
I've evaluated in the proc & there should be a count of 29 records.
I found a work around by using this in the stored proc & I get my record count:
ACCRUAL_CODE = CASE WHEN BASE.ACCRUAL_CODE = 'A' THEN 0 ELSE 1 END
and changed the expression in SSRS to this & it works:
=sum(Fields!ACCRUAL_CODE.Value)
Is this a known issue with strings? From searching on this site I see that string evaluations are widely used so I do not see why it wouldn't work. I've also see this when filtering the dataset on anything that is a character. Any suggestions?

Example of current display:
Customer Bill #
ABC Company 123
ABC Company 456
ABC Company 789 etc
I want this to display as below:
Cusotmer Bill #
ABC Company 123, 456, 789, etc.
Is this possible in SSRS. Please help me with the syntax.

I currently have some SQL code that is used to build a string that is a concatination of string values across multiple rows. The subqueries in the script sometimes return NULL values so I use the following statement to change the default behavior of the concatination operator which prevents my query from returning NULL:
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON
Here's the code snippet:
select DISTINCT
(SELECT CASE WHEN (t1.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=1 THEN ' ' + t1.description ELSE '' END FROM transactiontypes t1 WHERE (t1.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=1) +
(SELECT CASE WHEN (t2.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=2 THEN ' ' + t2.description ELSE '' END FROM transactiontypes t2 WHERE (t2.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=2) +
(SELECT CASE WHEN (t3.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=4 THEN ' ' + t3.description ELSE '' END FROM transactiontypes t3 WHERE (t3.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=4) +
(SELECT CASE WHEN (t4.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=8 THEN ' ' + t4.description ELSE '' END FROM transactiontypes t4 WHERE (t4.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=8) +
(SELECT CASE WHEN (t5.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=16 THEN ' ' + t5.description ELSE '' END FROM transactiontypes t5 WHERE (t5.MaskValue & HDR.TranTypeID)=16)) as 'Transaction Type'
FROM HDResponse HDR
Here's the underlying table structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TransactionTypes](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Description] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL, [MaskValue] [int] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[HDResponse](
[ResponseID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[LoggedDateTime] [datetime] NULL,
[ResponseTypeTripID] [int] NULL,
[ResponseTypeID] [int] NULL,
[ResponseTypeObjectID] [int] NULL,
[ObjectID] [int] NULL,
[IDHolderID] [int] NULL,
[TransportCode] [int] NULL,
[CardID] [int] NULL,
[IssueCode] [smallint] NULL,
[EventDateTime] [datetime] NULL,
[Response] [bit] NULL,
[TranTypeID] [int] NULL)
ON [PRIMARY]
The problem I am having is I need to be able to use the query above in a view used for reporting. Unfortunately, you cannot use SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON in a view. This causes my query to return NULL if any of the subqueries return NULL. I could create a function to do something similar and reference the function in the query but I can't help but think there must be a way to get this done in a single query.
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!!!

Hi,
I have a calendar parameter in one of my reports. The values of the calendar are of the form 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mms'. And they are string values.
Now when I generate the report I have a textbox that takes the parameter label (e.g., parameter!calendar.label). However, I would like to format (or trim) the label as just 'yyyy-mm-dd'. Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried to change the parameter value format to datetime but this just throws an invalid datatype error...

Hi,
I got a really simple question here. Say I have a table with
ID, Name
1, A1
2, A2
3, A3
....
10, A10
Now I want to combine the names into another table grouped by their ID (say 1-5, 6-10), so this new table has two names instead of 10:
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5
A6 A7 A8 A9 A10
Is there a function that allows me to 'combine' the names from a select statement?
Thanks in advance,

I have a string with values value1,value2, value3, value(n) which I would like to append to my table.
In the second column of my table I have a parameter which stays the same, so I end up with (if the parameter value is "123456")
Column 1 | Column 2
123456 | Value1
123456 | Value2
123456 | Value3
I would like to set up a single SQL statement which will process this regardless of the number of values (therefore rows) desired.
Something like:
INSERT INTO dbo_tblUserLevelApplicationRequests ( Column1, Column2) select EmployeeNumberParam as EmployeeNumber, ((stringofvalues) as valuestring)
Is it possible to do this with a single SQL statement?

print @accountIdListTemp
The above query return the values without concatenating it.
declare @pot_commaSeperatedList varchar(max)
SELECT DISTINCT acct_id
into #accountIdListTemp

print @pot_commaSeperatedList
drop table #accountIdListTemp
This query returns result as concatenated string of comma separated values.
If i want to get similar result in a single query how can i get it?

I think it was Pat Phelan who posted a little trick here where he used the STUFF function to create a string fo values from a column without using a cursor.
I am starting a brand new project and I did my table design and I am awaiting a finalized requirements document to start coding and I thought I would spend a little time writing some code to autogenerate some generic one record at a time SELECT, INSERT,UPDATE and DELETE stored procedures. With the coming holiday things are getting quiet around here.
The code that is not working is listed below. It does not work. It returns Null. I suck.
DECLARE @column_names varchar(8000)
SET @column_names = ''
SELECT @column_names = STUFF(@column_names,LEN(@column_names),0,C.COLUMN_ NAME + ', ')
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS C
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'MyTable'
SELECT @column_names

The string column value looks like as below. Each value has a size of 15 withing a string
'2.2020 30 4.0000'
The column value should match with user input as below. The result should show equal when it is compared. Currently, it results not equal since it is a string comparision. The last digit '0' needs to be ignored for decimal values.
'2.202 30 4.0'
I need to handle the decimal values in such a way, if staring value with '.' and last digit is 0 then replace with space ''. So, it should look like
'2 2 2 30 4 ' = '2 2 2 30 4 '
When this string is compared, it results in EQUAL.
I tried the below logic, which even replaces the integer value like 30 to 3 and 3000 to 3 and results in equal which is incorrect.
RTRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(RT1.rate,'''+@DOT+''','''+@S PACE+'''), '''+@ZERO+''', '''+@SPACE+''')) = '''+REPLACE(REPLACE(@Rate,'.',' '), '0', ' ')+''' '
Ex:'2.2020 300 4.00' = '2.20200 30 4.0'
After replace, string looks like
Ex:'2 2 2 3 4 ' = '2 2 2 3 4 '
It results as EQUAL which is incorrect. I need only decimal value to be replaced not integer.
I am looking for a single string replace logic.
