This may not be possible, but still i would like to know if any of you have suggestions:
Is it possible to implement the functionality of a cube in a stored proc.
I have a table called:
Scores
Columns:
StudentID,YearID,ClassID,TestID,SubjectID,Score
Primary Key:
StudentID,YearID,ClassID,TestID,SubjectID
My requirements are:
i). For a given StudentID,YearID,ClassID,TestID,SubjectID i need to get top 5 scorers, top 10, top 15... and so on.
ii). For a given StudentID,YearID,ClassID,TestID i need to get top 5 scorers, top 10, top 15... and so on. In this case i need to get all SubjectIDs for each (StudentID,YearID,ClassID,TestID ) and sum all of them up and then get the top 5 or 10... etc...
iii). Also imagine we need to get the similar info just given the StudentID,YearID,ClassID or
StudentID,YearID
If we write Stored procedure we think will affect the performance severly, this is why we are thinking we need a cube... but i don't think we can get anylysis services with our budget... if you have any suggestions how to achieve/simplify the scenarios please let us know... It will be really appreciated.
I am working with a large application and am trying to track down a bug. I believe an error that occurs in the stored procedure isbubbling back up to the application and is causing the application not to run. Don't ask why, but we do not have some of the sourcecode that was used to build the application, so I am not able to trace into the code. So basically I want to examine the stored procedure. If I run the stored procedure through Query Analyzer, I get the following error message: Msg 2758, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GetPortalSettings, Line 74RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 60002 in sysmessages. (1 row(s) affected) (1 row(s) affected) I don't know if the error message is sufficient enough to cause the application from not running? Does anyone know? If the RAISERROR occursmdiway through the stored procedure, does the stored procedure terminate execution? Also, Is there a way to trace into a stored procedure through Query Analyzer? -------------------------------------------As a side note, below is a small portion of my stored proc where the error is being raised: SELECT @PortalPermissionValue = isnull(max(PermissionValue),0)FROM Permission, PermissionType, #GroupsWHERE Permission.ResourceId = @PortalIdAND Permission.PartyId = #Groups.PartyIdAND Permission.PermissionTypeId = PermissionType.PermissionTypeId IF @PortalPermissionValue = 0BEGIN RAISERROR (60002, 16, 1) return -3END
I am having trouble executing a stored procedure on a remote server. On my local server, I have a linked server setup as follows: Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563
This works fine on my local server:
Select * From [Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563].DatabaseName.dbo.TableName
This does not work (Attempting to execute a remote stored proc named 'Data_Add':
When I attempt to run the above, I get the following error: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'Server1.abcd.myserver.comSQLServer2005,1563'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
Could anyone shed some light on what I need to do to get this to work?
Hi All,Quick question, I have always heard it best practice to check for exist, ifso, drop, then create the proc. I just wanted to know why that's a bestpractice. I am trying to put that theory in place at my work, but they areasking for a good reason to do this before actually implementing. All Icould think of was that so when you're creating a proc you won't get anerror if the procedure already exists, but doesn't it also have to do withCompilation and perhaps Execution. Does anyone have a good argument fordoing stored procs this way? All feedback is appreciated.TIA,~CK
I have an ASP that has been working fine for several months, but itsuddenly broke. I wonder if windows update has installed some securitypatch that is causing it.The problem is that I am calling a stored procedure via an ASP(classic, not .NET) , but nothing happens. The procedure doesn't work,and I don't get any error messages.I've tried dropping and re-creating the user and permissions, to noavail. If it was a permissions problem, there would be an errormessage. I trace the calls in Profiler, and it has no complaints. Thedatabase is getting the stored proc call.I finally got it to work again, but this is not a viable solution forour production environment:1. response.write the SQL call to the stored procedure from the ASPand copy the text to the clipboard.2. log in to QueryAnalyzer using the same user as used by the ASP.3. paste and run the SQL call to the stored proc in query analyzer.After I have done this, it not only works in Query Analyzer, but thenthe ASP works too. It continues to work, even after I reboot themachine. This is truly bizzare and has us stumped. My hunch is thatwindows update installed something that has created this issue, but Ihave not been able to track it down.
I have a stored procedure "uspX" that calls another stored procedure "uspY" and I need to retrieve the return value from uspY and use it within uspX. Does anyone know the syntax for this?
I have about 5 stored procedures that, among other things, execute exactly the same SELECT statement
Instead of copying the SELECT statement 5 times, I'd like each stored proc to call a single stored proc that executes the SELECT statement and returns the resultset to the calling stored proc
The SELECT statement in question retrieves a single row from a table containing 10 columns.
Is there a way for a stored proc to call another stored proc and gain access to the resultset of the called stored proc?
I know about stored proc return values and about output parameters, but I think I am looking for something different.
I would like to know if the following is possible/permissible:
myCLRstoredproc (or some C# stored proc) { //call some T SQL stored procedure spSQL and get the result set here to work with
INSERT INTO #tmpCLR EXECUTE spSQL }
spSQL (
INSERT INTO #tmpABC EXECUTE spSQL2 )
spSQL2 ( // some other t-sql stored proc )
Can we do that? I know that doing this in SQL server would throw (nested EXECUTE not allowed). I dont want to go re-writing the spSQL in C# again, I just want to get whatever spSQL returns and then work with the result set to do row-level computations, thereby avoiding to use cursors in spSQL.
I am calling a stored procedure (say X) and from that stored procedure (i mean X) i want to call another stored procedure (say Y)asynchoronoulsy. Once stored procedure X is completed then i want to return execution to main program. In background, Stored procedure Y will contiue his work. Please let me know how to do that using SQL Server 2000 and ASP.NET 2.
I know where the data files are etc, but what is the physical structure of a cube like on disk?
Logically we see the data as a star. Is the physical file akin to a star also? Or is a single file a measure group containing all the required member and measure data - thereby eliminating the need for physical join operators.
Hi Peeps I have a SP that returns xml I have writen another stored proc in which I want to do something like this:Select FieldOne, FieldTwo, ( exec sp_that_returns_xml ( @a, @b) ), FieldThree from TableName But it seems that I cant call the proc from within a select. I have also tried declare @v xml set @v = exec sp_that_returns_xml ( @a, @b) But this again doesn't work I have tried changing the statements syntax i.e. brackets and no brackets etc..., The only way Ive got it to work is to create a temp table, insert the result from the xml proc into it and then set @v as a select from the temp table - Which to be frank is god awful way to do it. Any and all help appreciated. Kal
I am just starting out using CUBEMEMBER/CUBEVALUE formulas in excel linked into a sql olap db - using this method for some custom reports where pivot tables are not suitable. The time dimension values include Months, Quarters and Years and the CUBEMEMBER formulas like
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1].&[1]") work fine - 1st quarter 1st month etc.
Is there a straightforward notation to aggregate months or do I need to use a plus sign to add a number of CUBEMEMBER formulas together.In other words - Is there an easier way of for say jan to july 2015 totals than
I am new to SSAS. I have requirement to build a cube based on SQL Stored procedure. This Stored Procedure contains lot of temp tables, which are aggregated as measure columns.
Initially I have done creating views on each temp table, finally I created a view which calls like 15 views. when I try to execute the view, it is taking long time to execute the view.
I tried building cube on this view, when I try to deploy, even it is taking long time to deply..I have waited for 2 hours, still the deployement process going..
What I wonder is, is there any other way I can build cube based on SQL stored Procedure.
When I make a call to GetSchemaDataset with a restriction of a cube name with a space in the name of the cube the call fails. Following is a sample of the code: adoRestriction = new AdomdRestriction("CATALOG_NAME", "Contoso Telecom_Contoso"); adoRestrictions.Add(adoRestriction); dataSet = conn.GetSchemaDataSet("MDSCHEMA_CUBES", adoRestrictions); I am running SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services SP2. Is there some way to qualify the cube name in the restriction or is this just a bug? Thanks.
I didn't want to maintain similar/identical tables in a legacy FoxPro system and another system with SQL Server back end. Both systems are active, but some tables are shared.
Initially I was going to use a Linked Server to the FoxPro to pull the FP data when needed. This works. But, I've come up with what I believe is a better solution. Keep in mind that these tables are largely static - occassional changes, edits.
I will do a 1 time DTS from FP into SQL Server tables.
I then create INSERT and UPDATE triggers within FoxPro.
These triggers fire a stored procedure in FoxPro that establishes a connection to the SQL Server and fire the appropriate stored procedure on SQL Server to CREATE and/or UPDATE the corresponding table there.
In the end - the tables are local to both apps.
If the UPDATES or TRIGGERS fail I write to an error log - and in that rare case - I can manually fix. I could set it up to email me from within FoxPro as well if needed.
Here's the FoxPro and SQL Server code for reference for the Record Insert:

I am trying to create a stored proc, that delivers a recordset, per the user requirements BUT,
I want to create a Geneirc search Proc that can handle a few criteria
I was wondering if it is possible to create a VB like Select case depending on Information supplied to the stored proc
i.e @Loc_Thing @Loc_OtherThing
SELECT FirstName,LastName,CIty,Job,,Company,Webpage FROM RECORDSET WHERE Select case @Loc_Thing Case "Mickey" LastName = @Loc_OtherThing Case "Walt" Company = @Loc_OtherThing
...... etc
is it possible to create a strored proc like this? I have found a Select case in SQL, but it doesn't work I would like it? Any Idea's?
Hello, So I created my first SP today which returned data to populate a datagrid. Worked to perfection. Now I'm trying to do a simple login and I'm having a hard time getting it together. I want the user to enter in a username and pass then if user exists, to return their userid and update their last login date. But I can't get it. Any help would be awesome.
Here's my SP...
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[userLogin] @username varchar(50), @pass varchar(50) AS
declare @x int declare @userid int
if exists (SELECT userid FROM users WHERE username = @username AND password = @pass) set @x = 1 else set @x = 0
if @x = 1 UPDATE users SET lastlogin = getdate() WHERE userid = (SELECT userid AS name FROM users WHERE username = @username AND password = @pass) else return '0'
if @x = 1 SET @userid = (SELECT userid FROM users WHERE username = @username AND password = @pass) return @userid GO
Any constructive criticism on my SP is welcome. Also, should I be using Print or Return if I want to send back a value to my VB code?
And my VB:
Dim user As String = txtUsername.Text Dim pass As String = txtPassword.Text Dim objDataSet As DataSet Dim objAdapter As SqlDataAdapter
Try Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
'Enter Param's here Dim myParam1 As SqlParameter = cmd.Parameters.Add("@username", SqlDbType.VarChar) Dim myParam2 As SqlParameter = cmd.Parameters.Add("@pass", SqlDbType.VarChar)
Dim str As String = cmd.Parameters("@userid").Value() cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() If str = "0" Then 'Error Login Page Response.Redirect("login_err.aspx") Else Session("userid") = str Response.Redirect("home.aspx") End If
Table2 has the same ID field and a date field which are both unique (PK, FK)
I need to write a stored procedure that will query the ID field from table1 like
Select distinct(id) from Table1
Would return:
ID
1
2
3
4
5
Now on the first of every month I want a job to run that would create a new record for EACH ID from the above query. The new record would be created in Table2 with the ID and a date (that I will determine), resulting in:
ID DATE
1 01/01/06
2 01/01/06
3 01/01/06
4 01/01/06
5 01/01/06
The following month, after running it again, the table would look like:
ID DATE
1 01/01/06
1 02/01/06
2 01/01/06
2 02/01/06
3 01/01/06
3 02/01/06
4 01/01/06
4 02/01/06
5 01/01/06
5 02/01/06
I have no idea how to “loop� through this record set for each record in Table1 and in turn insert into Table2.
I have a current stored proc that creates records based on certain criteria. One of the fields I have is a SmallDateTime field. To populate this from my stored proc, I have this code (for this one field).
SELECT @myLeaveDate = CAST(STR(MONTH(getdate()))+'/'+STR(01)+'/'+STR(YEAR(getdate())) AS DateTime)
This always creates a record for the 1st of the current month. This works fine as is. After it runs I can look at the table and it creates dates that look like the following: “2/1/2006� -Notice it doesn’t have any minutes, seconds, etc.
Now what I need is to do something similar in another field which is also SmallDateTime, BUT I want the date to be for the 10th day of the following month.
I got this working using dateadd, but it also appends the minutes, seconds, etc.
I made a strored proc and I receive my like condition in parameter. The like condition must be in '' like (... like 'a%'). I'm sure that it's just a question of apostrophe.
Hi, Anybody has Document for Stored procedure coding standard for best performance. I know that I can able get in BOL and sql-server-performance.com just wanted know if anybody had info other than this. Thanks, Ravi
One of the columns I am inserting into may or may not contain sensitive data. If the "type" parameter supplied with the proc. execute statement is of a specific value I need to utilize an encryption function (and a data type conversion) on the following column which is the actual value parameter. If the type does not meet the specific criteria the encryption/conversion for the value parameter. Any syntax assist would be greatly apprciated.
