DataReader Returns Different Results When There Are Null Fields

Mar 10, 2004

If I query sql server I get 10 results. But when I use if (myReader.Read()) I get only 7 results. I found that there was a Null field in the DB. I changed it and it worked.


The problem is I don't want to touch the database and set all null fields. There must be a way to get all results including the Null using sqlDataReader so that if (myReader.Read()) is used it does the right comparison.








// This code is called 10 times with a select * from where item="xxx"


P21Conn.Open();





SqlDataReader myReader = cmd.ExecuteReader();





if (myReader.Read()) {





thanks

Management Studio Grid Results, How Do I Get NULL Fields Auto-colored?

Jan 23, 2008

Perhaps I was seeing things earlier, and it's really a minor thing, but when I display query results in Management Studio, isn't there a setting that turns the background of cells containing NULL to a pale yellow color? I could've sworn it used to do this, and I've searched high and low for a preference setting, but no joy.

Does this setting exist?

Thanks,

Dave

SQL Server 2008 :: Elegant Way For Returning All Results When Subquery Returns No Results?

Mar 25, 2015

I have four tables: Customer (CustomerId INT, CountyId INT), County (CountyId INT), Search(SearchId INT), and SearchCriteria (SearchCriteriaId INT, SearchId INT, CountyId INT, [others not related to this]).

I want to search Customer based off of the Search record, which could have multiple SearchCriteria records. However, if there aren't any SearchCriteria records with CountyId populated for a given Search, I want it to assume to get all Customer records, regardless of CountyId.

Right now, I'm doing it this way.

DECLARE @SearchId INT = 100
SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE
CountyId IN
(
SELECT CASE WHEN EXISTS(SELECT CountyId FROM SearchCriteria WHERE SearchId = @SearchId)
THEN SearchCriteria.CountyId

[Code] .....

This works; it just seems cludgy. Is there a more elegant way to do this?

WITH RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT Not Working?

May 3, 2006

Hello.

I've built a sample CLR function with the following declaration....

CREATE FUNCTION GetManager(@DeptCode nvarchar(3))
RETURNS nvarchar(1000)
WITH RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT
AS
EXTERNAL NAME Assembly1.[ClassLibrary1.MyVBClass].MyManager

And it works as expected, except when I use NULL:

DECLARE @MyManager nvarchar(1000)
EXEC @MyManager = dbo.GetManager NULL
PRINT @MyManager

It returns the value "Unknown" as it would have for any unknown DeptCode, as-programmed.

I'm of the theory it should have returned NULL without actually firing the function? Or is this only for non-CLR items... or stored procedures, not functions?

Returns A NULL Value

Oct 9, 2014

I havethe following query which returns one row of data, however, the MedicalcodeID is NULL.

SELECT db1.dbo.Referral.ReferralGuidDigest, dbo.patient.PatientID, dbo.Consultation.ConsultationID, dbo.Staff.StaffID,
db1.dbo.Referral.EffectiveDateTime AS EventDate, db1.dbo.Referral.Status AS ReferralStatus, db1.dbo.Referral.Mode AS ReferralMode,
db1.dbo.Referral.ServiceType, db1.dbo.Referral.Urgency, db1.dbo.Referral.Direction, db1.dbo.Referral.Transport,
db1.dbo.Referral.EndedDate, db1.dbo.Referral.ReceivedDate, dbo.lkupMedical.MedicalCodeID, db1.dbo.Referral.Term,

[code]...

It is clear from teh above - that the expected MedicalCodeID = 33959 and NOT NULL. I dont understand why SQL added the COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS to the query - am working on a database developed by another person. Could it be the ACode and ReadCode in dbo.lkupMedical is not set up with SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS. How to implement to LkupMedical table....

I changed HIGHLIGHTED JOIN to Inner/Right but it never yielded any results, no record found..

AcquireConnection Returns Null

May 15, 2006

Hi,

we are facing some issue to get the underlying OledbConnection from the runtime ConnectionManager.

below is the code sample that we are using

IDtsConnectionService conService = (IDtsConnectionService)this.serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IDtsConnectionService));

if (conService == null)

return;

ArrayList conCollection = conService.GetConnectionsOfType("OLEDB");

for (int count = 0; count < conCollection.Count; count++)

{

string conName = ((ConnectionManager)conCollection[count]).Name;

if (conName == conMgrname)

{

conMgr = DtsConvert.ToConnectionManager90((ConnectionManager)conCollection[count]);

ConnectionManager cm = DtsConvert.ToConnectionManager(conMgr);

Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.ConnectionManagerAdoNet cmado = cm.InnerObject as Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.ConnectionManagerAdoNet;

OleDbConnection conn= cmado.AcquireConnection(null) as OleDbConnection;

}

}

In the sample above the conn is null.



To this query Darren replied to use the connection of type ADO.NET:System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 to create the connection.

Your call to GetConnectionsOfType("OLEDB"); will return native OLE-DB connections, not ADO.NET connections, using the OleDbConnection.

The connection type for the ADo>NET OLE-DB connection is -

ADO.NET:System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089


but if user creates an New OLEDB Connection from the Connection Manager panel of the BIDS and selects the same from the custom UI how to get the underlying OLEDBConnection? the CreationName in this case is "OLEDB" and not ADO.NET:System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089.

Decrypting Returns A NULL Value

Apr 26, 2007













I find it weird when decrypting a column from a baked up database and restoring it to another database. Here's the scenario:

Server1 has Database1.
Database1 has Table1 with two columns encyrpted -- Card Number and SS Number
Encryption and decryption in this Database1 is perfectly fine. Records are encrypted and can be decrypted too.
Now, I tried to backup this Database1 and restore it to another server with SQL 2005 instance called Server2. Of course the columns Card and SS Numbers were encrypted. I tried decrypting the columns using the same command to decrypt in Database1, however, it returns a NULL value


Here's exactly what I did to create the encyprtion and decryption keys on the restored database:
-- Create the master key encryption
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'myMasterPassword'

-- Create a symetric key
CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY myKey WITH ALGORITHM = DES
ENCRYPTION BY Password='myPassword';
Go

-- Create Card Certificate
CREATE CERTIFICATE myCert WITH SUBJECT = 'My Certificate on this Server';
GO

-- Change symmetric key
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY myKey DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'myPassword';

-- I then verified if the key is opened
SELECT * FROM sys.openkeys




If I create a new database, say Database2 from that Server2, create table, master key, certificate, and symmetric key. Encrpytion and decryption on Database2 will work!




Any suggestions gurus? I tried all searches and help for almost 2 weeks regarding this issue but nobody could resolve this.

Thanks in advance!

@@servername Returns NULL Value

Mar 9, 2006

I have a SQL 2005 clustered server which is returning a Null value for @@servername. I find the server entry in sysservers. I have replication configured on this so i am not able to do a Sp_dropserver & sp_addserver as this acts as a publisher. The configured merge repication stopped working because of this issue and I am not able to delete replication as the the delete option uses @@servername which returns a null value. So I am struck in a loop.

Any advice is appreciated.



thanks

Concatenated Column Returns Null

Mar 7, 2008

Hi folks,I have an issue with a column I created in my query called Instance.SELECT Object_Id, Event_type, Audience, Subject, Provider, Academic_Year, Start_date, End_date, CONVERT(varchar, Academic_Year) + ' (' + CONVERT(varchar, Start_date, 103) + ') : ' + Event_type AS InstanceFROM EventsORDER BY Event_type Above is my query. The problem is because the start date column can be null, it also returns the Instance column as null for that row.I thought it would have just missed out the date and display the rest, but it doesn't.Is there any way I could get the Instance column to display a value, when the start date is null?ThanksEdit: Managed to sort it using ISNULL()

Scheduledefinition.Item Returns Always Null

Jan 4, 2007

Hi All,

I have a built an application to manage the report-subscription on my ReportServer.
I'm having some troubles with retrieving the subscription properties.


My problem:
I can retrieve all my propertie except the schedule definition, when I deserialize it, the Sceduledefenition.Item always returns null.

I use the next code to deserialize it:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
private XmlAttributeOverrides GetSchedule()
{
XmlAttributeOverrides xmlAttrOverride = new XmlAttributeOverrides();
XmlAttributes XmlAttr = new XmlAttributes();
XmlAttr.Xmlns = false;
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(ScheduleDefinition), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(MinuteRecurrence), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(DailyRecurrence), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(WeeklyRecurrence), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(MonthlyRecurrence), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(MonthlyDOWRecurrence), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(DaysOfWeekSelector), XmlAttr);
xmlAttrOverride.Add(typeof(MonthsOfYearSelector), XmlAttr);
return xmlAttrOverride;
}

private ScheduleDefinition DeserializeScheduleDefenition(string MatchData)
{
XmlAttributeOverrides xmlAttrOverride = GetSchedule();
XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(ScheduleDefinition),xmlAttrOverride);
Stream stream = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetBytes(MatchData));
stream.Position = 0;
return (ScheduleDefinition)ser.Deserialize(stream);
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I'have tried almost everything, but could not find the solution.

Please, this is very important for me, so every tip or shared thought could be very helpfull.



Thnx in advance

Computed Column Returns Null

Nov 16, 2007

How do you prevent SQL from returning a null value for a computed column?

The following formula returns blank if any of the values are blank ... pftitle allows nulls, the other two are required on Insert.

(((([pflastname]+', ')+[pffirstname])+' - ')+[pftitle])

Where can I find the documentation of computed field operators and expressions?

ISNULL With Logical AND Returns Null

Oct 22, 2006

Im having some unexpected results from combining ISNULL with logical and '&&' and conditions '?:' in derived columns.

This works and returns A or B.
(ISNULL(Col1) && Col2 == "X") ? "A" : "B"

This fails returning Null when Col1 is null
(Col2 == "X" && ISNULL(Col1)) ? "A" : "B"

This fails returning null when Col1 is null
(ISNULL(Col1) && Col2 == "X") ? "A" : (ISNULL(Col1) && Col2 == "Y") ? "B" : "C"

I've applied service pack one and still have the issue. I've also tried using ISNULL in a condion like (ISNULL(Col1) ? TRUE : FALSE)

Anyone else seen this behavior?

SqlDataSource Returns Fewer Results Than Original Sql Query

Aug 3, 2007

I have a query that I created in SqlServer and then merely copied the code to a sqldatasource. They are both connected to the same db, however the sqldatasource query only returns 6 records and when run in SqlServer, it returns 52 rows which is the correct number.
 Any ideas on what might be causing this? There are no filters on the sqldatasource. It only has that one query. Do they differ in the way they execute sql code?
 Thanks for any help!

Why Search On Empty String Returns Results With A Space?

Aug 1, 2007

In sql server 2000 - our QA pointed out that his testing for empty strings returned 200 + rows but that when he clicked in the field there were obviously a space there. This issue came up because of the script I created to replace and earlier one that queried on empty strings instead of datalength and the earlier script always reported that it had updated x number of rows regardless of how many times it was run on the same database.

QA query based on the earlier script:
Select * from StringTable
WHERE (LongString = '' OR LongString IS NULL)

My script:
The fields are nvarchars in the newer database but older version of the database had varchars. I had created a script to replace empty strings as follows:

-- if LongString column is varchar - run varchar update else nvarchar update
If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'LongString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin

-- update varchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 1) OR LongString IS NULL)

END
Else Begin

-- update nvarchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 2) OR LongString IS NULL)

END

If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'ShortString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin

UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 1) OR ShortString IS NULL)

END
Else Begin

-- update nvarchar ShortString
UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 2) OR ShortString IS NULL)

END

My method for checking for datalength appears to work correctly why doesn't the QA script? I thought it might have to do with the nvarchar used in the table but I changed the column to a varchar and still has the same issue.

Thanks

Parameterized Query Returns One Row With Null Values.

Jul 28, 2006

I am hoping someone could help me understand why this is happening and perhaps a solution.
I am using ASP.NET 2.0 with a SQL 2005 database.
In code behind, I am performing a query using a parameter as below:
sql = "SELECT field_name FROM myTable WHERE (field_name = @P1)"
objCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@P1", TextBox1.Text))
The parameter is obtained from TextBox1 which has valid input. However, the value is not in the table. The query should not return ANY results. However, I am getting one single row back with null values for each field requested in the query.
The SQL user account for this query has select, insert, and update permissions on the table. The query is simple, no joins, and the table has no null values in any fields. If I perform the exact same query using an account with select only permission on the table, I get what I was expecting, no records. Then if I go back to the previous user account with more permissioins, and I change the query to pass the paramter this way:
sql = String.Format("SELECT field_name FROM myTable WHERE (field_name = {0})", TextBox1.Text)
I also get NO records retuned using the same criteria.
What is going on here? I would prefer to use the parameterized query method with the account having elevated permissions. Is there some command object setting that can prevent the null row from returning?
Thanks!

ExecuteScalar Returns 0 (null) But INSERT Is Successful.

Sep 25, 2007



I have code that has worked just fine for some time, and now all of the sudden I am having an issue. I have a simple INSERT statement built and then make the following call:


RecordID = cmd.ExecuteScalar


I have never had a problem with this before. The RecordID of the newly inserted record is returned into the RecordID Integer varibale. All of the sudden, the varibale has a value of 0 (null I assume is being returned), but yet the INSERT worked just fine. I can check the table in SQL and it is populated with no issues.

No exception is thrown of any type or anything. Does anybody know what may be happening?

EncryptByKey DecryptByKey Occasionally Returns Null

Jan 21, 2008

The DecryptByKey function occasionally returns null even though the EncryptByKey function retuned a non-null value. The problem only occurs for a subset of rows returned by a single select and every time the script is executed, a different set of rows is affected by the problem. Occasionally all fields get encrypted/decrypted successfully, but this is rare.

It seems that the EncryptByKey function occasionally returns a value that can not be decrypted at a later point in time.

I am running on Windows XP Professional SP 2 with SQL Server 9.0.3042.

I have included a sample of the code below.

Thank you,

How To Test If A Column Returns Null Or Not Using The Reader Object?

Apr 11, 2008

Is there a way to check for System.BDNull when I use the column name instead of column index? The column Photographer (in the excample below) sometimes contains the value null, and then it throws an error. Or do I have to go back to counting columns (column index of the returned data) again?                try {                    connection.Open();                    using (SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader()) {                        if (reader.Read()) {                            albumItem = new Album((int)reader["Id"]);                            if (reader["Photographer"] != null)                                albumItem.Photographer = (string)reader["Photographer"];                            albumItem.Public = (bool)reader["IsPublic"];                        }                    }                } Regards, Sigurd

DataRead Of Stored Procedure Returns Column Name Instead Of Null

Jan 6, 2006

I have a stored procedure like "select * from ThisTable"
I'm doing a dataread like:
Dim val as String = dateRead("column_from_ThisTable")
If the value in the column is not null everything works great, but if the value is null, instead of getting a value of "" which I expect, I get the column name??? In this case "column_from_ThisTable"
How do I make sure I get "" returned when the value in the column is db.null?

Select Statement Returns Null In Stored Proc

Feb 22, 2006

If I run this statement in Query Analyzer, it properly returns 1for my testing table. But if I put the statement into a storedprocedure, the stored procedure returns NULL. What am I doingwrong? I suspect it may be related to how I defined the parametersfor the stored procedure. Perhaps my definition of TableName andColumnName don't match what COLUMNPROPERTY and OBJECT_ID expect toreceive, but I don't know where to look for the function declarationsfor those. Any pointers would be appreciated.Select statement:SELECT COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID('Table1'), 'TestID', 'IsIdentity') ASIsIdentityTable definition:CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table1] ([TestID] [numeric](18, 0) IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[Description] [varchar] (50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]Stored Procedure definition:CREATE PROCEDURE spTest(@TableName varchar,@ColumnName varchar)AS SELECT COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(@TableName), @ColumnName,'IsIdentity') AS IsIdentity

Xml Value Method Randomly Returns Null When Assigning To A Variable

Apr 20, 2007

I'm using SSEE 9.0.3042 and started loosing sleep over trying to figure out why the following piece of SQL



DECLARE @x xml

DECLARE @a nvarchar(400);

DECLARE @b nvarchar(400);

DECLARE @c nvarchar(400);

SET @x=N'<SuchKriterienDataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/SuchKriterienDataSet.xsd">

<SuchKriterien><Index>0</Index><Name>a</Name><Wert>Test1</Wert><Bedingung>0</Bedingung></SuchKriterien>

<SuchKriterien><Index>1</Index><Name>b</Name><Wert>Test2</Wert><Bedingung>0</Bedingung></SuchKriterien>

<SuchKriterien><Index>2</Index><Name>c</Name><Wert>Test3</Wert><Bedingung>0</Bedingung></SuchKriterien>

</SuchKriterienDataSet>';

WITH XMLNAMESPACES ('http://tempuri.org/SuchKriterienDataSet.xsd' AS ds)

SELECT

@a=@x.value('(/dsuchKriterienDataSet/dsuchKriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "a"])[1]','nvarchar(400)'),

@b=@x.value('(/dsuchkriterienDataSet/dsuchkriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "b"])[1]','nvarchar(400)'),

@c=@x.value('(/dsuchKriterienDataSet/dsuchKriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "c"])[1]','nvarchar(400)');

WITH XMLNAMESPACES ('http://tempuri.org/SuchKriterienDataSet.xsd' AS ds)

SELECT

@x.value('(/dsuchKriterienDataSet/dsuchKriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "a"])[1]','nvarchar(400)'),

@x.value('(/dsuchKriterienDataSet/dsuchKriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "b"])[1]','nvarchar(400)'),

@x.value('(/dsuchKriterienDataSet/dsuchKriterien/ds:Wert[../ds:Name = "c"])[1]','nvarchar(400)')

UNION ALL

SELECT @a,@b,@c



returns



Test1 Test2 Test3

Test1 NULL Test3



instead of



Test1 Test2 Test3

Test1 Test2 Test3



This is the shortest repro I could assemble. Once you increase the number of variables, a random pattern of dropped values emerges.



I could repro on fully patched Windows XP German w/ SSEE ENU and Windows Server 2003 64-bit w/ SSEE GER.



Any workaround highly appreciated.

Thx,

Henry

IS NULL Returns Empty Records (using TEXT Type)

Mar 3, 2008

Hi all I am having some issues in selecting items from my database where the record is NOT NULL. I have the code below however although some fields do contain soem data in it, others are blank which I believe are empty spaces. How do I do a SELECT command which ignores empty spaces and NULLS?

Integration Services :: Dealing With Carriage Returns Within Flat File Source Fields

Apr 2, 2015

I'm trying to import a flat file source into a SQL Server table.

The flat file is pipe-delimited and text qualified with " (double-quotes).

The import job is failing because there is a "comments" field in the flat file and there are carriage returns within some records in the "comments" field. When SSIS encounters a record with a carriage return within that field, it sees the carriage return and assumes the end of the record, even though the field is text qualified with " ".

The actual error message I see is: "

Error 0xc0202055: Data Flow Task 1: The column delimiter for column "comments" was not found.
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

Sample Record:
"418186"|"94"|"Staff Only-Minimum charge out of 3 hours
Plus travel & accommodation costs (if required) – at cost.

All trauma response services & associated fees/costs are required to be formally authorised by the Company prior to delivery."|""|"690"|""

I can't think of a way to get SSIS to ignore the carriage returns within the Comments field in the source flat file!

ADO.NET Returns Different Colum Value When Compared To View Results In SQL 2005 Management Studio

Feb 7, 2007

I have a complex view in my sql 2005 database.
The view returns a column that could be null (as the result of a left outer join).
The coulmn that is returned is an integer.
Everything works fine if I run the view from SQL 2005 Management Studio.
My column value is always null if I use ADO.NET's SqlAdapter to return a DataTable.
Has anybody seen this behaviour before?
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Paul.

Transact SQL :: UPDATE Statement - Returns Correct Results When Running Separately

May 1, 2015

SQL Ver: 2008 (not r2)
Problem:  The following code returns correct results when moving variable declarations and update statement outside a stored procedure, but fails to return a value other than zero for the "COMPANY TOTAL" records.  The "DEPT TOTAL" result works fine both in and outside the sp.This may have to do with handling NULL values since I was getting warning message earlier involving a value being eliminated by an aggregate function involving a NULL.  I only got this message when running inside the sp, not when running standalone.  I wrapped the values inside the SUM functions with an ISNULL, and now return a zero rather than NULL for the "COMPANY TOTAL" records when running inside SP.All variable values are correct when running.

SQL CODE:
DECLARE 
     @WIPMonthCurrent date = (SELECT TOP 1 WIPMonth FROM budxcWIPMonths WHERE ActiveWIPPeriod = 'Y')
  select @WIPMonthCurrent as WIPMonthCurrent
  
[code]....

How Do I Exclude Carriage Returns As Part Of A IS NULL Exclusion Clause...

Jan 6, 2005

Hi

I have stupid users... who doesn't?! They have entered carriage returns as a whole value in some fields, that is, the field contains nothing more than a carriage return.

I really need to treat these cases as nulls and have successfully removed whole fields of nothing but spaces by using the LTRIM(RTRIM()) construct. Unfortunately, this doesn't deal with carraige returns. Even CASTing and CONVERTing to varchar and then using LTRIM(RTRIM()) doesn't work.

Does anyone know how I can elegantly get around this problem other than my best guess below:

Best guess pseudo code:
IF count of field is greater than 1 THEN probably a full sentence so ignore ELSE SUBSTRING first character and if CHAR(10, etc) then treat as NULL.

Here's some code that reconstructs the problem:
select datalength(char(13)) CarriageReturnVisible
, datalength(ltrim(rtrim(cast(char(13) as varchar)))) [This Don't Work]


Cheers - Andy

Results Produce A Single Record Based Off Of Parameters. Want To Change It So It Returns Multiple Records.

Dec 20, 2007

I have a query that will return one record as its results if you provide two variables: @login and @record_date. This works great if you only want one result. However, now what I want to do is not provide those variables and get the result set back for each login and record_date combination. The hitch is that there are several other variables that are built off of the two that are supplied. Here is the query:

DECLARE @login char(20), /*This sets the rep for the query.*/
@record_date datetime, /*This is the date that we want to run this for.*/
@RWPY decimal(18,2), /*This is the required wins per year.*/
@OCPW decimal(18,2), /*This is the opportunities closed per week.*/
@OACW decimal(18,2), /*This is opportunities advanced to close per week.*/
@TOC decimal(18,2), /*This is the total number of opportunities in close.*/
@OANW decimal(18,2), /*This is opportunities advanced to negotiate per week.*/
@TON decimal(18,2), /*This is the total number of opportunities in negotiate.*/
@OADW decimal(18,2), /*This is the opportunities advanced to demonstrate per week*/
@TOD decimal(18,2), /*This is the total number of opportunities in demonstrate.*/
@OAIW decimal(18,2), /*This is the opportunities advanced to interview per week.*/
@TOI decimal(18,2), /*This is the total number of opportunities in interview.*/
@OCW decimal(18,2), /*This is the opportunities created per week.*/
@TOA decimal(18,2) /*This is the total number of opportunities in approach.*/

SET @login = 'GREP'
SET @record_date = '12/18/2007'
SET @RWPY = (SELECT ((SELECT annual_quota FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)/(SELECT target_deal FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)))
SET @OCPW = (SELECT @RWPY/weeks FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @OACW = (SELECT @OCPW/cls_perc_adv FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @TOC = (SELECT @OACW*(cls_time/7) FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @OANW = (SELECT @OACW/neg_perc_adv FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @TON = (SELECT @OANW*(neg_time/7) FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @OADW = (SELECT @OANW/dem_perc_adv FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @TOD = (SELECT @OADW*(dem_time/7) FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @OAIW = (SELECT @OADW/int_perc_adv FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @TOI = (SELECT @OAIW*(int_time/7) FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @OCW = (SELECT @OAIW/app_perc_adv FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)
SET @TOA = (SELECT @OCW*(app_time/7) FROM #pipelinehist WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date)

SELECT loginname,
CAST(@TOA AS decimal(18,1)) AS [Opps in Approach],
app_time AS [Approach Average Time],
app_perc_adv AS [Approach Perc Adv],
CAST(@TOI AS decimal(18,1)) AS [Opps in Interview],
int_time AS [Interview Average Time],
int_perc_adv AS [Interview Perc Adv],
CAST(@TOD AS decimal(18,1)) AS [Opps in Demonstrate],
dem_time AS [Demonstrate Average Time],
dem_perc_adv AS [Demonstrate Perc Adv],
CAST(@TON AS decimal(18,1)) AS [Opps in Negotiate],
neg_time AS [Negotiate Average Time],
neg_perc_adv AS [Negotiate Perc Adv],
CAST(@TOC AS decimal(18,1)) AS [Opps In Close],
cls_time AS [Close Average Time],
cls_perc_adv AS [Close Perc Adv]
FROM #pipelinehist
WHERE loginname = @login AND record_date = @record_date

Here is some sample data to use with this. With this sample data what I want to get back is a total of 30 records in the result set each with its data specific to the login and record_date of that returned record.

CREATE TABLE #pipelinehist (
glusftboid int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
record_date datetime NOT NULL,
loginname char(20) NOT NULL,
app_new float NOT NULL,
app_time float NOT NULL,
app_perc_adv float NOT NULL,
int_time float NOT NULL,
int_perc_adv float NOT NULL,
dem_time float NOT NULL,
dem_perc_adv float NOT NULL,
neg_time float NOT NULL,
neg_perc_adv float NOT NULL,
cls_time float NOT NULL,
cls_perc_adv float NOT NULL,
target_deal money NOT NULL,
annual_quota money NOT NULL,
weeks int NOT NULL
