I'm a Transact-SQL newbie, and I would like to create a procedure that creates a table with a parameterized name. I wrote the following, which I thought should do the job:
CREATE PROCEDURE procedure_AddFund
@FundName varchar(10)
AS
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE @FundName (Date smalldatetime, Price money)
END
GO
But I am getting the following error in Management Studio:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure procedure_AddFund, Line 5
Incorrect syntax near '@FundName'.
Presumably, I need to convert the @FundName to some appropriate string type. My question is what is the string type, and how do I do the conversion.
joy mundy alluded in her webcast that it is possible to dynamically specify a table name in a parameterized ole db source query. is this true? if so, how can it be done?
so that everything is then driven from a single selected Quarter value, the table report no longer gets populated, as it has hardcoded field values such as
I am trying to create a stored procedure that will take a text value passed from an application and update a table using the corresponding integer value using a CASE statement. I get the error: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'SET' when I execute the creation of the SP. What am I missing here? This looks to me like it should work. Here is my code.
CREATE PROCEDURE OfficeMove
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@UserName nvarchar(10),
@NewLocation nchar(5),
@NewCity nvarchar(250)

DELETE FROM [SQLSZD].[SZDDB].dbo.Employee_Office_Assignments
WHERE User_Name = @UserName
INSERT INTO [SQLSZD].[SZDDB].dbo.Employee_Office_Assignments
HelloWhen I use a PreparedStatement (in jdbc) with the following query:SELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = ?ORDER BY group_nameIt takes a significantly longer time to run (the time it takes forexecuteQuery() to return ) than if I useSELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = 'M'ORDER BY group_nameAfter tracing the problem down, it appears that this is not preciselya java issue, but rather has to do with the underlying cost of runningparameterized queries.When I open up MS Enterprise Manager and type the same query in - italso takes far longer for the parameterized query to run when I usethe version of the query with bind (?) parameters.This only happens when the table in question is large - I am seeingthis behaviour for a table with > 1,000,000 records. It doesn't makesense to me why a parameterized query would run SLOWER than acompletely ad-hoc query when it is supposed to be more efficient.Furthermore, if one were to say that the reason for this behaviour isthat the query is first getting compliled and then the parameters aregetting sent over - thus resulting in a longer percieved executiontime - I would respond that if this were the case then A) it shouldn'tbe any different if it were run against a large or small table B) thisperformance hit should only be experienced the first time that thequery is run C) the performance hit should only be 2x the time for thenon-parameterized query takes to run - the difference in response timeis more like 4-10 times the time it takes for the non parameterizedversion to run!!!Is this a sql-server specific problem or something that would pertainto other databases as well? I there something about the coorect use ofbind parameters that I overall don't understand?If I can provide some hints in Java then this would be great..otherwise, do I need to turn/off certain settings on the databaseitself?If nothing else works, I will have to either find or write a wrapperaround the Statement object that acts like a prepared statement but inreality sends regular Statement objects to the JDBC driver. I wouldthen put some inteligence in the database layer for deciding whetherto use this special -hack- object or a regular prepared statementdepending on the expected overhead. (Obviously this logic would onlybe written in once place.. etc.. IoC.. ) HOWEVER, I would desperatelywant to avoid doing this.Please help :)
Banti writes "IF i create temporary table by using #table and ##table then what is the difference. i found no difference. pls reply. first: create table ##temp ( name varchar(25), roll int ) insert into ##temp values('banti',1) select * from ##temp second: create table #temp ( name varchar(25), roll int ) insert into #temp values('banti',1) select * from #temp
both works fine , then what is the difference waiting for ur reply Banti"
Using SQL against a DB2 table the 'with' key word is used todynamically create a temporary table with an SQL statement that isretained for the duration of that SQL statement.What is the equivalent to the SQL 'with' using TSQL? If there is notone, what is the TSQL solution to creating a temporary table that isassociated with an SQL statement? Examples would be appreciated.Thank you!!
I am trying to create a table that holds info about a user; with the usual columns for firstName, lastName, etc.... no problem creating the table or it's columns, but how can I "restrict" the values of my State column in the 'users' table so that it only accepts values from the 'states' table?
Is it possible to creates fields of the table dynamically?. I have this situation in my project. This is just a small sample. I have row of length 140. I don't wan't to declare all this fields manually using the create table command.
The description of table is as, in this table all the field are of type varchar only, there are like 140 columns.
Table: Dummy ================================================== == field1 field2 field3.......... Empid Empname empaage1 sam 23........... 2 rai 22............ . . . n raj 45............. ================================================== == Now I want to create another table as "EMP" , with proper data type fields too..
Table: EMP ================================================== == Empid Empname empaage............ 1 sam 23............... 2 rai 22................ . . . n raj 45................. ================================================== ==
I want to do this dynamically..... Some how I need to extract those field from table[dummy]; the first row acts as a column header for the table[Emp] and the subsequent row acts as a record for the table[Emp]
A small rough snippet of the code will be appreciated....
I am using a Stored procedure in which I am creating a table and dropping that table at the end of execution. This SP is calling every 10 second (but no concurrent access) from my application. Is there any issue using the drop table command in the SP? will it create any memory fragmentation issue in SQL server?
I am attempting to create a stored procedure that will launch at report runtime to summarize data in a table into a table that will reflect period data using an array type field. I know how to execute one line but I am not sure how to run the script so that it not only summarizes the data below but also creates and drops the table.
I have a situation with a table that was created for a transactional
system with a 3 columns key. The table is similar to the following:
countrystatecitydescription 11221City A from country 1 and state 12 11321City A from country 1 and state 13 21422City B from country 2 and state 14 21522City B from country 2 and state 15
Now I'm trying to create a dts package that would allow me to build a
city dimension table with unique codes (keys) for each city. What kind of
transformation should I use to translate the old codes (based on the
country-state-city key) into the new ones and preserving the data
I'm trying to create programmatically a table in my db on sql server 2005.1. I created a string "CREATE TABLE ....." and then tried to execute it using my ADO. That didn't work, so I copied the string into a query in sql server and got the message "CREATE TABLE sql is not supported". Why's that? 2. I created a stored procedure in my db that will get the "CREATE TABLE...." string and execute it. I thought it would look something like this: parameter @createString varchar(MAX) BEGIN BEGIN EXEC @createString or @createString END END Both these options didn't work.How can I make it work properly?Thanks.
I need a module to help me create a SQLServer database table. Is there a module that allows users to specify parameters in the creation of a SQLserver table?
Does anyone know if it is possible to create a tmp table in RAM without pinning it and how to do it? I already knew that SQL has a stored procedure allows pinning a table in RAM. Thank you for any input.
How do you create a new table from a SELECT statement of another tableusing MS SQL Server. This is part of a distributed database topic foruniversity. Unfortunately I can only seem to get the new table createdin Oracle and not MS.
I need to create tables from a C# code. I made a stored procedure hoping that I will pass a table name as a parameter: @tabName. The procedure executed in SqlServer All Right but when I called it from C# code it created not the table I put in as a parameter but table "tabName." Otherwise everything else was perfect: coumns, etc.
Here is my stored procedure.
set ANSI_NULLS ON set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CreateTableTick] @tabName varchar(24) = 0 AS BEGIN SET NOCOUNT ON; CREATE TABLE tabName ( bid float NULL, ask float NULL, last float NULL, volume float NULL, dateTimed datetime NULL ) END
My program is to create temporary table. To avoid creating the same name table, I have to create it dynamically with this code. Random rand = new Random(); string num = "Temp"+rand.Next(100).ToString(); sql = "CREATE TABLE '"+num+"' ( , , , )"; When it is exeucuted, the error message tell it has error near Temp23(num). Is it possible to create table with this way?
Hi All,I will like to create a table from two tables this (explained below) way using a stored procedure. Basically i want the stored procedure to return me the third table but i dont know how to do it.Table ATopicID Topic ----------------------------- 1 Sometopic 12 Some topic 23 Some topic 34 Some topic 4 Table BRateID Rate TopicID---------------------------------------1 5 12 5 13 5 24 4 25 4 36 3 5 Table CTopicID Topic Rate--------------------------------------------1 Some topic1 52 Some topic 2 5 3 Some topic 3 5Basically i have a table that stores topics associated with a particular subject. Those topics are stored in table A above. My users can just read the messages associated with the topic and rate that message. The rating is then stored in table B.Now i will like my users to search for topics with a particular word or sentence in table A and the topics that are returned have a rating they specify. My procedure takes the word or sentence to search in table A and and the rating which will be used in table B. I will like to construct another table that has this newly searched results and return it using a stored procedure or anything simple. I dont know how to do this because i have very little knowledge in stored procedures or sql..... Any help(Code) will be greatly appreciated...
Hello there, I'm going to, by my site, to create the aspnet membership thing.. (you know you can run aspnet_regsql.exe and then its create a lot of tables)But I'm stuck with a table with two primary keys? How the **** is that possible?I got this code to create table:'aspnet_UsersInRolesnonqueryCommand.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE aspnet_UsersInRoles (UserId uniqueidentifier NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, RoleId uniqueidentifier NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)"Console.WriteLine(nonqueryCommand.CommandText)Session("Tables") = Session("Tables") + "Number of Rows Affected with table aspnet_UsersInRoles is: " + nonqueryCommand.ExecuteNonQuery().ToString + "<br />" But you ain't allowed to have two primary keys,How do you then create this table?:
Hope for help, and as you probably already has notice is I'm absolutely not expert to this :D Ps. Tehre shouldn't already be a code for this in vb?
Hi SQ Gurus, Please help me with this issue that I am facing. I want to create a table programatically but want to pass its name as a variable. I would like to do something as follows: CREATE PROCEDURE BS_Create (@Name nvarchar(25)) AS CREATE TABLE [dbo].[@Name]( [ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL , [Prod_Name] [nvarchar] (75) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] GO The table name is passed in as a parameter. No matter what I pass as a parameter, the table name is '@Name', which is not what I want. Instead, if the variable contains the value 'Product', I would like to see a table with the name 'Product' to be created.

I'm not an expert in SQL Server. Can anybodt help me? What I have to do?. What is a page?. How can I extend my database?
