Hi,
is it possible to create a cursor from a dynamic string?
Like:
DECLARE @cursor nvarchar(1000)
SET @cursor = N'SELECT product.product_id
FROM product WHERE fund_amt > 0'
DECLARE ic_uv_cursor CURSOR FOR @cursor
instead of using this
--SELECT product.product_id
--FROM product WHERE fund_amt > 0 -- AND mpc_product.status
= 'aktiv'
Havn't found anything in the net...
Thanks,
Peppi
Hello..
Can you declare a cursor with dynamic SQL?
I have a situation where the SQL for my cursor MUST be assembled in a buffer, but I cannot get the cursor declaration to accept my buffer as the SQL statement.
these attempts did not work:
DECLARE crsCursor CURSOR FOR @vchrSQL
DECLARE crsCursor CURSOR FOR (@vchrSQL)
Does anybody know if you definitely can or definitely cannot use dynamic SQL with cursors?
Hi,
I am declaring the cursor based on a query which is generated dynamically. but it is not working
Declare @tempSQL varchar(1000)
--- This query will be generated based on my other conditon and will be stored in a variable
set @tempsql = 'select * from orders'
declare cursor test for @tempsql
open test
This code is not working.
please suggest

Is there any way to create a cursor, based on a dynamically created select_statement? Something like:
DECLARE someCRS CURSOR LOCAL FAST_FORWARD FOR @strSelect
where @strSelect is previously declared as let's say varchar.
I don't want to create a stored procedure for this.
Thanks!
I keep getting the message

Hello guys,just wanted to ask a question some might percieve it as a stupid one but I don't know so I will ask anyway?
Is Declare Cursor same as Create Cursor and if not what is the major difference?
I have to specifiy the database name which is supplied from the user (@fixdb). I want to do something like the following 'code'
Declare SysCursor cursor for + 'select Name, ID from ' + @fixdb +'.dbo.sysobjects where xtype = "u"'
but I can't seem to come up with the right statement.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am using SQL 2005 and i would like to create a cursor from executing a stored procedure (dbo.SP_getDate @Variable).
Something like this:
DECLARE Cursor1 CURSOR FOR EXECUTE dbo.SP_getDate @Variable
i get an error saying "incorrect syntax near the keyword 'EXECUTE'."
cannot get rid of the error. what am i doing wrong?
(i am trying to avoid using #tempTbl to store the results of the execute first and then doing a select on the #tempTbl)
Not sure if i am doing this right all together.
any help would be greatly appreciate.
The below cursor is giving an error
DECLARE @Table_Name NVARCHAR(MAX) ,
@Field_Name NVARCHAR(MAX) ,
@Document_Type NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @SOPCursor AS CURSOR;
SET
@SOPCursor = CURSOR FOR
[Code] ....
The @Table_Name variable is declared, If I replace the delete statement (DELETE FROM @Table_Name ) with (PRINT @table_name) it works and print the table names.
Why does the delete statement give an error ?
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 1 Replies View RelatedThe stored procedure, below, results in this error when I try to compile...
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure InsertImportedReportData, Line 69
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'.
However the select statement itself runs perfectly well as a query, no errors.
The T-SQL manual says you can't use the keywords COMPUTE, COMPUTE BY, FOR BROWSE, and INTO in a cursor select statement, but nothing about plain old ORDER BYs.
What gives with this?

Hello there,
i have been asked about a thing that, i think, is not possible. But maybe i am wrong.
question:
Is it possible to have a Stored Procedure in that the declaration of the variables is dynamic?
This means, can i get the variable name and the type of it from a database to create
a dynamic stored procedure that changes itself by firing a trigger.
Thanks for all oppinions and answers.

This one has me stumped.
I created an updateable partioned view of a very large table. Now I get an error when I attempt to declare a CURSOR that SELECTs from the view, and a FOR UPDATE argument is in the declaration.
There error generated is:
Server: Msg 16957, Level 16, State 4, Line 3
FOR UPDATE cannot be specified on a READ ONLY cursor
Here is the cursor declaration:
declare some_cursor CURSOR
for
select *
from part_view
FOR UPDATE
Any ideas, guys? Thanks in advance for knocking your head against this one.
PS: Since I tested the updateability of the view there are no issues with primary keys, uniqueness, or indexes missing. Also, unfortunately, the dreaded cursor is requried, so set based alternatives are not an option - it's from within Peoplesoft.
I've looked up Books Online on Dynamic Cursor/ Dynamic SQL Statement.
Using the examples given in Books Online returns compilation errors. See below.
Does anyone know how to use Dynamic Cursor/ Dynamic SQL Statement?

I am trying to use a dynamic cursor in a stored procedure:
The code looks like this :
/************************************************** ***
set @sFormula = 'Monthlyformula'
set @sStartDate = '02/01/2004'
set @sEndDate = '02/01/2004'
exec('DECLARE APPGRIDROWS_METRICS CURSOR FOR select populateid From appgridrows where histdisplaygrid = 3 And '+ @sFormula +' Is Null and exists (SELECT 1 From PAYROLL_DATA_PERIOD as h Where h.id=1 and h.populateid=appgridrows.populateid and h.StartDate between '+ @sStartDate +' and '+ @sEndDate +')' )
/************************************************** ***
And this is what it is interpreting
select populateid From appgridrows where histdisplaygrid = 3 And Monthlyformula Is Null and exists (SELECT 1 From PAYROLL_DATA_PERIOD as h Where h.id=1 and h.populateid=appgridrows.populateid and h.StartDate between 02/01/2004 and 02/01/2004)
My problem is Is there anyway that I can put the quotes before those dates('02/01/2004') so that my cursor has some records returned
Thanks in advance

Yes, the cursor is of type GLOBAL. I am sure I miss something here ...

Hi all.
I am stuck in a bit of a conundrum for quite a while now, and I hope someone here will help me figure this one out.
So, first things first: let me explain what I need to do. I am
designing a web application that will allow users to consult info
available in a SQL2000 database. The user will enter the search
criterea, and hopefully the web page will show matching results.
The problem is the results shown aren't available per se in the DB, I
need to process the data a bit. I decided to do so on the SQL Server
side, though the use of cursors. So, when a user defines his search
criteria, I run a stored procedure that begins by building a dynamic
sql query and creating a cursor for it. I used a global cursor in order
to do so. It looked something like this:
SET @sqlQuery = ... (build the dinamic sql query)
SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE myCursor CURSOR GLOBAL FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery
EXEC @cursorQuery
OPEN myCursor
FETCH NEXT FROM myCursor INTO ...
CLOSE myCursor
DEALLOCATE myCursor
This works fine, if there's only one instance of the
stored procedure running at a time. Should another user connect to the
site and run a search while someone's at it, it'll fail due to the
atempt to create a cursor with the same name.
My first thought was to make the cursor name unique, which led me to:
...
SET @cursorName = 'myCursor' + @uniqueUserID
SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE '+ @cursorName + 'CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery
EXEC @cursorQuery
...
The problem with this is that I can't do a FETCH NEXT FROM @cursorName since
@cursorName is a char variable holding the cursor name, and not a
cursor variable. So to enforce this unique name method the only option
I have is to keep creating dynamic sql queries and exucting them. And
this makes the sp a bitch to develop and maintain, and I'm guessing it
doesn't make it very performant.
So I moved on to my second idea: local cursor variables. The problem with
this is that if I create a local cursor variable by executing a dynamic
query, I can't extract it from the EXEC (or sp_executesql) context, as
it offers no output variable.
I guess my concrete questions are:
Is it possible to execute a dynamic sql query and extract a (cursor) variable from it?Is it possible to populate a local cursor variable with a global cursor, by providing the global cursor's name?Can I create a local cursor variable for a dynamic sql query? How?
Anybody sees another way arround this?Thanks in advance,
Carlos

I need to find all uses of special characters in a database. I used the following code to do this:
USE dbName
GO
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb.dbo.#Results') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Results
GO
[code]...
This will check all tables in the database, but if you want to check specific tables you can uncomment the line in the where clause and specify tables to be checked. The query will return any text fields that have any characters other than letters, numbers or spaces.
This code works fine for me because all the tables in my database have single column primary keys. However I know how much Jeff Moden hates cursors or RBAR queries, so my question is could this have been done by any method other than using a cursor?
Each patient has multiple diagnoses. Is it possible to concatinate all of them in one without using a cursor?
I attach a small sample - just 3 patient (identified by VisitGUID) with the list on the left, the desired result on the right.

I think it was Pat Phelan who posted a little trick here where he used the STUFF function to create a string fo values from a column without using a cursor.
I am starting a brand new project and I did my table design and I am awaiting a finalized requirements document to start coding and I thought I would spend a little time writing some code to autogenerate some generic one record at a time SELECT, INSERT,UPDATE and DELETE stored procedures. With the coming holiday things are getting quiet around here.
The code that is not working is listed below. It does not work. It returns Null. I suck.
DECLARE @column_names varchar(8000)
SET @column_names = ''
SELECT @column_names = STUFF(@column_names,LEN(@column_names),0,C.COLUMN_ NAME + ', ')
