Hi,
In a stored procedure I'm processing, via a cursor, a table of, potentially, 100,000 rows on a daily basis. The only column in each row is a 12-byte transaction control number. I know that using cursors can cause performance issues. Is there an alternative to using a cursor that has less of a performance impact ?
Thanks,
Jeff
Hi All,
Beside cursor, what else can i use to speed up my processing? Now i have about 2mils rows need to update using one daily reference table(30k rows).
Thanks,
Jack
I have a Stored Procedure. In that SP, I am calling 10 table-valued user defined function to calculate different pricing charges (lets say delivery charge, fuel surcharge, etc). In that SP, there is one Temporary table to store the data required for calculating charges and some columns will hold the calculated data in the same temp table.
1. First step is loading the columns in Temporary table in the SP which are required for calculating charges (will be having 1000 records for example)
2. Second step is to calculate charges ( delivery charge, fuel surcharge, etc). for each rows(1000 rows) from the temporary table using table-valued user defined functions one by one*Call function to calculate DeliveryCharge in the SP and calculate DeliveryCharge for all 1000rows. For this step i am using cursor to loop through 1000records and find DeliveryCharge for each row and update it in the DeliveryCharge column in the same temporary table. I am using 10 cursors for 10 different price calculations in the SP
3. Finally, the SP will return that 1000 records with calculated prices. The question is how to avoid Cursor for these operations. How to pass all 1000 records to a function and get table valued results from that function and update those results in the Temporary table without using cursors?
Hi all
I wanted to workout with while loop as an alternative of cursor. I am working in SQL Server 2005.
I have a table TEST with following values
tid tname
1 John
2 Sam
3 Peter
I wanted to insert these records into same table or another table using following while loop. But I ended of inserting only last record in the loop, not each one above.
--DELETE FROM test1
DECLARE @id int,
@lc int,@rc int
--SET ROWCOUNT 0
SELECT tid,tname INTO #Temp FROM Test
SET @rc=@@ROWCOUNT
--SET ROWCOUNT 1
--SELECT @id=tid FROM #TEMP
SET @lc=1
WHILE @lc<=@rc
BEGIN
SELECT @id=tid FROM #TEMP
INSERT INTO TEST
SELECT @id,'ppp'
FROM (SELECT tid FROM #TEMP WHERE tid=@id) T
--SELECT * FROM #Temp
SET @lc=@lc+1
END
Any help how to insert each record using while loop will be much appreciated.
Thanks all

In MSDN file I read about static cursor
STATIC
Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in
tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications
It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a questions regarding that
Static Cursor
declare ll cursor global static
for select name, salary from ag
open ll
fetch from ll
while @@FETCH_STATUS=0
fetch from ll
update ag set salary=200 where 1=1
close ll
deallocate ll
In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.
Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I'm trying to come up with a replacement for @@IDENTITY, because I have SQL code I want to make more portable.
Original:ID = MyDataLayer.Execute("INSERT INTO X(a,b,c) VALUES(A,B,C); SELECT @@IDENTITY")
Proposed solution:
lock(MyDataLayer)
ID = MyDataLayer.Execute("SELECT MAX(id)+1 FROM X")
if(ID==null) ID=1
MyDataLayer.Execute("INSERT INTO X(id,a,b,c) VALUES(ID,A,B,C)")
unlock(MyDataLayer)
(This is of course pseudocode, for SQL Server I'd need SET IDENTITY_INSERT.)
Do you think the preceding solution is equivalent to the original?
Do you know something better?
Equivalent should mean here, not necessarily generating the same ID's,
but maintaining functionality and consistence all over the database.
is there a way to get around not using USE in a PROCEDURE?
I need to because I have a main site that inserts information into other DB's that i use for various subdomains. But without being able to use USE i cant select which database is needed.
thx in advance
Hi!
I wrote a query in MS-ACCESS using IIF. Is there any way to convert it to SQL Server Query to do the same job as it do in MS-ACCEESS
e.g. Here is manipulation with one column that I did in MS-ACCESS

My company develops software that is distributed to thousands of customers. We chose MSDE as the database engine. Over the past 4 months, we have spent countless hours with customers, Microsoft, Installshield and web searches trying to resolve issues with installing MSDE. The issues seem to vary by customer and most take a great deal of support time. We understood MSDE to be a product that requires little support but in hindsight, it appears that it requires a great deal of knowledge just to get installed. We make small steps but no leaps forward.
It has come time to evaluate other products. If there is a magic bullet, I would love to hear about it. In its absence, does anyone have success to share with other products?

Hi,
Just curious, is there any alternative to SQLXMLBULKLOAD for shredding and loading very large (800 megs) XML files ? Due to the nature of the XML data sent to me (which I have no control over)I am having great difficulty loading data into tables. More specifically, I can load parent data but not the child data beneath it despite using sql:relationships.
Thanks,
Jeff
I have a situation where my SQL works everywhere else but my COBOL compiler complains wherever I use PARTITION BY. I can't find a workaround for that problem so I would like to remove all the PARTITION BYs. I'm not confident that I can do this accurately and would like some help getting started.
Here is my simplest example:
SELECT FESOR.REGION, FESOR.TYPE,
COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY FESOR.REGION, FESOR.TYPE)
FROM FESOR, FR
where FESOR.phase = 'Ref'
and FESOR.assign is null
and FESOR.comp_date is null
and FESOR.region = FR.REGION
and FESOR.type = FR.TYPE
and FR.REP_ROW='A'
GROUP BY FESOR.REGION, FESOR.TYPE
What I'm looking for is a modified version of the SQL above which returns the same result set without using PARTITION BY.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Basically, is there an alternative to indexing that maintains the fast searching capability (or possibly faster)?
We maintain over 500 databases on a single SQL server and currently (the way I am told) the server is limited to indexing 256 databases, so we have to basically create a new database with ALL the searchable data and use it for searches. While this works, it seems like there should be an alternate method. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your time!"

What would be a better / more elegant solution to something like

that uses less OR's in an IF statement?
Hi all
I work as a production dba and our development team are trying to push a project which involves using triggers. The aim is to transfer information between to databases (on two differents servers) because currently users have to type in the same info into the two different systems.
The triggers will be defined on a couple of tables, checking for inserts, updates, deletes, and then insert this into staging tables within teh same database. However the trigger does more complex processing than just inserting the same records from the production table into the staging table. Because the schema between the source database and destination database is different, the trigger needs to do some manipulation before it updates the staging tables. It basically does massive selects from a number of different tables to get the desired column list & then puts that into the staging tables.
We have basically asked them to reimplement this solution using other methods (such as timestamping the necessary tables and then putting the trigger login into a stored proc and scheduling it to run through a job).
However, we've found out the triggers make use of the 'deleted' and 'inserted' special trigger tables to compare new data to old data - i.e. not all inserts/updates/deletes need to be pushed to the staging tables - it depends on certain criteria based on this comparison of old and new data.....that throws a spanner in the works. What alternatives could provide this functionality, without just making the whole process a a headache to maintain - which is why we recommended not using triggers in the first place!!
Sorry for the long post - needed to explain the issue properly. Hopefully some of you will be able to provide some feedback - teh sooner the better as I have a meeting with the developers later today and would like to offer some alternatives.
Thanks!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a procedure that take several paramters and depending of whatvalues is submitted or not, the procedures shall return differentnumber of rows. But to simplyfy this my example use just oneparameter, for example Idnr.If this id is submitted then I will return only the posts with thisidnr, but if this is not submitted, I will return all posts in table.As I can see I have two options1. IF @lcIdNr IS NOT NULLSELECT *FROM tableWHERE idnr = @lcIdNrELSESELECT *FROM table2. Use dynamic SQL.The first example can work with just one parameter but with a coupleof different input paramters this could be difficult, anyway this isnot a good solution. The second example works fine but as I understanddynamic sql is not good from the optimizing point of view. So, I don'twant to use either of theese options, so I wonder If there i a way towork around this with for example a case clause?RegardsJenny

I have a SSIS package that imports an Excel file using Visual Basic 2005 into my SQL 2005 database. All the fields are the same in the DB and xls. The package runs with no problem but I need one of the fields to be autoincrement. I tried to set up the properties of one of my fields "ID" to be an Identity. This didn't seem to work at all. There are about 1300 records in the DB so far with the last "ID" number being 10001415. Before now, the numbers were inputed manually. I want the "ID" to be assigned when the SSIS package imports the xls file.
Any help is very appreciated.

Hi
I found it a bit annoying to type Go after some very simple query and I wonder is there a short cut to execute the query i type right after I press enter?
1> select * from Table
2> go <enter>
instead, how to you execute line 1 without entering go?
Thank you
There is another alternative ... if you are using MSCRM 3.0
follow this steps
1. Navigate to your report manager --> //<<Server Name>>/reports
2. Navigate to your datasource --> HOME > <<Datasource>>
3. At the top tab select Properties
4. Make sure that there is a user role call "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" thus apply the appropiate roles for it
Vula....!!!!!
Hi,I'm trying to create a stored procedure that checks to see whether the parameters are NULL. If they are NOT NULL, then the parameter should be used in the WHERE clause of the SELECT statement otherwise all records should be returned.sample code: SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetProjectInfo]
(@ProjectTitle varchar(300), @ProjectManagerID int, @DeptCode varchar(20), @ProjID varchar(50),
@DateRequested datetime, @DueDate datetime, @ProjectStatusID int)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
IF @ProjectTitle IS NOT NULL AND @ProjectManagerID IS NULL AND @DeptCode IS NULL AND @ProjID IS NULL AND @DateRequested IS NULL AND @DueDate IS NULL AND @ProjectStatusID IS NULL
SELECT ProjID, ProjectTitle, ProjectDetails, ProjectManagerID, RequestedBy, DateRequested, DueDate, ProjectStatusID
FROM dbo.tbl_Project
WHERE ProjectTitle = @ProjectTitle;
ELSE IF @ProjectTitle IS NOT NULL AND @ProjectManagerID IS NOT NULL AND @DeptCode IS NULL AND @ProjID IS NULL AND @DateRequested IS NULL AND @DueDate IS NULL AND @ProjectStatusID IS NULL
SELECT ProjID, ProjectTitle, ProjectDetails, ProjectManagerID, RequestedBy, DateRequested, DueDate, ProjectStatusID
FROM dbo.tbl_Project
WHERE ProjectTitle = @ProjectTitle AND ProjectManagerID = @ProjectManagerID;
ELSE
SELECT ProjID, ProjectTitle, ProjectDetails, ProjectManagerID, RequestedBy, DateRequested, DueDate, ProjectStatusID
FROM dbo.tbl_Project; I could do this using IF-ELSE but that would require a ridiculous amount of conditional statements (basically 1 for each combination of NULLs and NOT NULLs). Is there a way to do this without all the IF-ELSEs? Thanks.
Hi all, I have a sql problem i'd like to put to the masses because its driving me crazy! Before I start, this is a database i inherited so I cant change the schema.
I have a table which holds field information for a form, namely the table name, column name and some other irrelevant stuff (X/Y coordinates for printing onto a document). Here is some sample data to explain better:
TableName FieldName Xpos Ypos
---------- --------- ----- -----
FruitTable FruitName 10 20
VegTable VegName 10 40
FruitTable FruitColour 20 10
(Thats not the real data of course)
What I need is a calculated field which returns the value of each field from each table – probably by constructing a dynamic sql statement(?) It would look something like this:
Select @FieldName From @TableName Where bla bla bla – don’t worry about the where clause. The completed dataset will hopefully then look like this:
TableName FieldName Xpos Ypos FieldValue (calculated field)
---------- --------- ----- ----- ---------
FruitTable FruitName 10 20 Oranges (result of: Select FruitName From FruitTable Where....)
VegTable VegName 10 40 Parsnips (result of: Select VegName From VegTable Where....)
FruitTable FruitColour 20 10 Green (result of: Select FruitColour From FruitTable Where....)
I have tried creating a scalar-valued function which takes TableName and FieldName as parameters and creates a dynamic sql string, but i cannot seem to execute the sql once I have built it. Here is a general idea of how I was trying to use the function:
Main query:Select
TableName, FieldName, Xpos, Ypos,
dbo.GetFieldValue(TableName, FieldName) As FieldValue
From
tblFieldAndPosition---------------Function: CREATE FUNCTION GetFieldValue (@TableName nvarchar(255),@FieldName nvarchar(255))
RETURNS nvarchar(255)
AS
BEGIN
Declare @SQL nvarchar(max)
Set @SQL = 'Select ' + @FieldName + ' From ' + @TableName
sp_executesql @SQL??
return ???
END ------------------------- The alternative to getting this data all out at once is contructing the sql statement in code and going back to the database once for every row - which i really dont want to do. If anyone has had a situation like this before, or can point me in the right direction I will be very very grateful. Hope thats clear. Thanks in advance
Good Day, please help me, i have a data driven site that displays computed data to a Complete Gridview, this is my problem, when i run my site, it all displays the informations and the gridview a i intended to. generally my site works fine BUT!!!!! my site have different levels of display, like thisSite 1:it has 3 dropdown menus, dropdown 2 is dependent to dropdown 1 and dropdown 3 is dependent to dropdown 2 and the complete gridview is dependent to dropdown 3, it is a postback process of dependencies, i hope you get what i mean, Site 2:this is the same as the site 1 but this time, is has 2 dropdown menus only, and the complete gridview has a gridview in side of it thru details template. Site 3: almost the same as Site 1 and 2 but this time there will be no dropdown menus, only the complete gridview, but the gridview has 3 levels, the same level sa the level of dropdown menus in site 1, where the main gridview has a gidview below it and a gridview again below it and soon, The Problem:the site works fine but it runs super SLOW!!! specially in the Site 3, where it has to display and compute different gridviews from the complete gridview at the same time, sometimes it cause the TIME OUT EXPIRE.that can i do to speed the process other than upgrading my server? is there an alternative?please helpfor more info this is the SQL codes that i used in each level in the complete gridviewThe highest level in the gridview of the initial display of the complete gridview: select rbu,count(distinct dslamname) as NumberOfDslam,

Hi all,
I am having two databases(MS-Sql) on two different servers.Let say they are Server1 and Server2.I am having some stored procedures(sps) which are executing on Server1.Results given by these sps are 6 different tables(Theses tables are temporary tables e.g #Table1 and they are created in one of the sps on Server1). And I want to use these 6 tables on Server2.
But constraint here is, i can create link server for Server1 from Server2 but not from Server1 to Server2.So i can not access Server2 directly from Server1.
Even if i am using custom tables here instead of temp tables(#) it will take me to solution but that is again a constraint i can not do this.
Is there any alternative solution for Link server in this case?
I dont want to go for OPENROWSET and OPENDATASOURCE b'coz of performance issue.
Thank you in advance!!

Hello,
What do you do if you need to select item 20 to 40 from a table? Do you just do 1 to 40 and let PHP ignore the first 20, or do you have another equivalent of the MySQL LIMIT Clause for MSSQL?
