I'm running SQL Server 2002 and trying to create a User Defined Function. However, everytime I try to save the script I get Error 170 Incorrect Syntax near 'FUNCTION'.
This happens if I create the Function from Code or use the Enterprise Manager. I'm logged in with 'sa' privs, so I don't think it's a privilege issue. I'm well confused.
Hi, Is there anyway to create a view within a Function? The code is as below. I execute the code between "BEGIN" and "END". SQL Analyzer report error that said
'CREATE VIEW' must be the first statement in a query batch.
I could make the variable constant in SELECT statement, but I'm wondering if there is a way to make CREATE VIEW as part of code piece.
CREATE Function GetCommonFailurs() AS BEGIN IF OBJECT_ID(N'CommonFailures') IS NOT NULL DROP VIEW CommonFailures DECLARE @Run1Result as char(4), @Run2Result as char(4); SET @Run1Result='Fail'; SET @Run2Result='Fail'; CREATE VIEW CommonFailures AS SELECT Run1Failures.RunID as Run1ID, Run2Failures.RunID as Run2ID, @Run1Result as 'Run1Result', @Run2Result as 'Run2Result', Run1Failures.SmartyDOTXMLFilePath as Run1SmartyFilePath, Run2Failures.SmartyDOTXMLFilePath as Run2SmartyFilePath, Run1Failures.SDET as SDET, Run1Failures.CommandLine as CommandLine, Run1Failures.OutputFilePath as OutputFilePath FROM Run1Failures INNER JOIN Run2Failures ON Run1Failures.TestID = Run2Failures.TestID END
How do I give a Windows group complete rights (including create) to allstored procedures and user defined functions without giving them dbo accessin SQL Server 2005? If I have to I can do it from the Management Console,but I would also like to know the commands.ThanksMatthew WellsJoin Bytes!
I'm having trouble creating a recursive function in T-SQL (SQL Server 2000).
I've got a table that has an ID column and a ParentID column. Each row can have a value in the ParentID column that references the ID column of another record - I'll call such rows "child records". I'll cal the row referenced by the ParentID the "parent record". Each child record can itself have another child record.
I need a function that will take an ID column value as a parameter, and walk up the chain of parent records until I get the first record in the series and return that record's ID value. I'll call that record the "UrParent record".
I'm trygin to create a recursive function called ufunc_ST_GetUrParentCertNum. In the function, there is of course a recursive call to itself - GetUrParentCertNum. However, when I try to run the CREATE FUNCTION script, I get the error: Server: Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Procedure ufunc_ST_GetUrParentCertNum, Line 26 'ufunc_ST_GetUrParentCertNum' is not a recognized function name.
I tried the same thing with a Stored Procedure, and that worked fine. However, I really want this to work as a function.
Does anyone have advice on how I can achieve this? Thanks in advance.

In the table, there is a record which has several field. every month, the function will create a same record. that means, the first month, one record. the secord month, two reocrds, ..... for a years. will have same 12 record. so what function can do this? Thanks.
Hi, i created a cube that has 2 measures. I created the measures by selecting the columns from my fact table, but the function that applied in the measures was the sum function. I need to apply the count function in my measure. How can i do that?
Here is the function I'm trying to write. The purpose is to replace MS Access Val() function. I'm not finished with the logic, I'm just trying to get this much to work now. Here is the function:create function DBO.NumValue -- This function will get the numbers from the front of a field -- and return the value of those numbers in a numeric data type (@mNumInput as charvar(100)) RETURNSnumeric AS BEGIN declare @x as tinyint declare @x1 as tinyint SET @x = 1 WHILE IsNumeric(SubString(@mNumInput, @x, 1)) BEGIN SET @x1 = @x SET @x = @x + 1 CONTINUE END If @x1 > 0 BEGIN RETURN CAST(LEFT(@mNumInput, @x1), Numeric END END Here are the two error messages I'm getting from this function.Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure NumValue, Line 12 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'BEGIN'. Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure NumValue, Line 20 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'END'. I have no idea what these two error messages mean. TIA,
I need to create a function that is available across all databases. This function is for exchange rate conversions and will be used extensively. I'd prefer not having to call it by it's full four-part name and just make it available everywhere on the server.
Is there a way to create such a function? Where is it stored?
Hello. I'm a real newbie - using Access 2003 front end and connecting to SQL Server 2005 ODBC. I'm having trouble accessing functions through access. I've built the following function:

I understand now I can create a view of the function Simply by using the function name in my FROM statement. However I get an error that arguments provided do not match parameters required. However, I'm not getting the prompt to enter my criterion. Is my error in my function statement? I can't save the view. I also understand I could use a pass-through query. Is there some sort of guidance or tutorial on that to which you could point me? Thanks for your time.
Can anyone help me to create a URL decode user defined function in SQL Server 2005? I want to use the method [System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlDecode] in .net framework, and I try to add it as a CLR function to SQL Server but always fail. It depends on [System.Web.dll], and when I try to create assembly [System.Web] using following scripts, it will fail:
CREATE ASSEMBLY [System.Web] FROM 'C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727System.Web.dll' WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE
Error: CREATE ASSEMBLY for assembly 'System.Web' failed because assembly 'System.Web' is not authorized for PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE. The assembly is authorized when either of the following is true: the database owner (DBO) has UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission and the database has the TRUSTWORTHY database property on; or the assembly is signed with a certificate or an asymmetric key that has a corresponding login with UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission. If you have restored or attached this database, make sure the database owner is mapped to the correct login on this server. If not, use sp_changedbowner to fix the problem.
I have searched the MSDN and then add following scripts before mine:
ALTER DATABASE [DatabaseName] SET TRUSTWORTHY ON
CREATE ASYMMETRIC KEY SystemWebKey FROM EXECUTABLE FILE = 'C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727System.Web.dll' CREATE LOGIN CLRLogin FROM ASYMMETRIC KEY SystemWebKey GRANT UNSAFE ASSEMBLY TO CLRLogin
I have a table with two columns: siteID (int primary key) and siteName(varchar(50) unique constraint).I am completely new to databases and UDFs and would like to write afunction that looks for a particular siteName and returns the siteID.If the siteName is not found then it would create a record and returnthat record's siteID.I am pretty sure there is a standard way of doing it and have beenlooking for examples, but have yet to find anything on Google.If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be verygrateful - I am still looking and will reply if I find anything.Many thanksJon
I 'm working with visual studio 2005 and I have created an SQLServer Project. I'm using the CLR functionality which comes with SQLserver 2005. This means that I can write VB.nEt code and use it inside Sqlserver 2005.So far so good. I am now inside the .NET I have created a Function(must remind you that I have created an SQLserver Project) which takes two string arguments. The date value in a string format and the string format.
In Our case the function returns a string.It will return a datetime although. So we have
Dim Datetime_Val As DateTime = Nothing Dim Date_Val As Date = Nothing Dim StrTemp As String = "" Dim StrDateTemp As String = Nothing Dim StrTimeTemp As String = Nothing Dim ls_return As String = Nothing Dim lindexof As Integer Dim Counter As Integer = 0
lindexof = 0 Select Case StrFormat Case "DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MIS" For Counter = 1 To 2 lindexof = StrDate.IndexOf("-", lindexof + 1) Next lindexof += 5
The above is a simple code. As you can see I'm trying to convert the TO_DATE function ,which work with ORACLE, to make it work with SQLServer 2005. I've been trying unsuccessfully to combine the variables StrDateTemp and StrTimeTemp into a datetime value. I used the following code but nothing
Datetime_Val = CDate(StrDateTemp & " " & StrTimeTemp) Didn't work
Datetime_Val = Convert.ToDateTime(StrDateTemp & " " & StrTimeTemp) Didn't work
Datetime_Val = DateTime.Parse(StrDateTemp & " " & StrTimeTemp) Didn't work
But I am receiveing an error. I want to avoid changing all of my applications with a specific format.This sql statement without the dbo prefix I'm using in Oracle. I want to keep the format of the SQL and let VB.NET do the parsing for me. It is easier for me to put in my SQLs the dbo infront rather changing the complete SQL. I have two questions . How am I going to create a TO_DATE function which Oracle uses and write something similar in SQLserver ? And If I cannot do that how am I going to get the database 's datetime format and create with VB.NET the Datetime value from the two variables ?
My problem I believe is quite complex. I would be mostly appreciated if you could help me on this.
SET MSYear= casewhen MSDate > '2011/06/30' and MSDate < '2012/07/01' THEN '2012' when MSDate > '2012/06/30' and MSDate < '2013/07/01' THEN '2013' when MSDate > '2013/06/30' and MSDate < '2014/07/01' THEN '2014' when MSDate > '2014/06/30' and MSDate < '2015/07/01' THEN '2015' when MSDate > '2015/06/30' and MSDate < '2016/07/01' THEN '2016' when MSDate > '2016/06/30' and MSDate < '2017/07/01' THEN '2017' End
Actually our business year starts from 1st july and for this code I need function which is dynamically updates the every year for example 2014-07-01 to 2015-06-30 this is called as a 2015 year like this I need function which will dynamically update a year.
Is there a way to define a query-filter (Example: WHERE column1 > 5 AND column2 = 'value') in a function?
So I can create a query like this:
SELECT * FROM Table WHERE MyFunction()
I know it's a bit of a strange question, but I'm writing a dynamic software that will have the ability to run Stored Procedures on any database to create some data-checks. Through parametrisation, a user can define for a specific Stored Procedure that some results are no longer necessary in the result-set.
Example: ID - Name - State 1 - Jozef De Veuster - Mad 2 - Piet Husentruut - Not Happy 3 - Jeroen Meus - Angry
Is the result of a Stored Procedure "Show_me_unhappy_persons". But we already know that Jozef De Veuster is ALWAYS Mad, so a user can say: Exclude ID = 1, so it won't appear anymore in the result.
I want to handle this by doing:
SELECT * FROM PeopleStates WHERE --Some stuff-- AND CheckUserExclusions(SomeID) And CheckUserExclusions will translate to "NOT (ID = 1)"
I have to make a user defined function in c# as the class liberary and create a dll file, now i want to use this function in SQL Server 2005 as a part of CLR Integration
I have tried like this
CREATE ASSEMBLY abc FROM 'C:abc.dll'
WITH PERMISSION_SET = SAFE
but it gives me incorrect syntax error so plzzzzz anyone help me wht to do in my probbbbbbbbb???????
Hi All,I need help in creating a function in VB for my ASP.NET application where I want to add records to database on the first day of every month.I have got no idea about what I have to do for achieving this goal.Its basically for a customer based application where Interest will be paid into customers' account and I need to implement this for every customer on 1st day of every monthThe thing I am not sure about is how can I get the application to add a record for each customer on the first day of each month, i.e. how can I get the application to check that its 1st day of month and then the application adds records automatically for each customer based on my specified rules.If any of you could help me with this, I'll really appreciate it.Thank you.
Hi,I'm sure this is a common problem.. to create a single field from awhole column, where each row would be separated by a comma.I can do this for a specified table, and column.. and I've created afunction using VBA to achieve a more dynamic (and very slow) solution..so I would like to implement it using a user defined function in sql server.The problems I'm facing are, that I can't use dynamic sql in afunction.. and I also can't use temporary tables which could build up a'standard' table from parameters given to then perform the function on.So, with these limitations, what other options do I have?Cheers,Chris
I'm relatively new to Reporting Services and .Net development so bear with me if I've missed something obvious. I've set up Reporting Services to run under forms authentication successfully. I want to filter the data (both within Report Builder Models and .rdl files) to the company the user belongs to.
To avoid joining the users table to all other tables on the companyID I'm wondering if it's possible to create a custom funciton which could use the UserID to lookup the companyID and then pass this through as a parameter, and have this "GetCompanyID" function available when building Models and/or reports...???
When building a model the Information Functions available are GETUSERID and GETUSERCULTURE. Is it possible to modify how these work and/or create additional functions here???
I need to expand resursion level for resursive CTE expression within CREATE FUNCTION statement for inline table function to a value greater than default. It turns out that OPTION clause for MAXRECURSION hint perfectly works if I use it outside CREATE FUNCTION (as well as CREATE VIEW for non-parametrized queries), but it does not within CREATE FUNCTION statement - I'm getting error:

Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'option'.
Here is the function:

Please help!

P.S. I'm really sorry if it is about syntax, but I could not find it in the documentation.
