Dynamic Select For CURSOR
May 14, 2008
Hi all
I am trying to do dynamic Select for Cursor. The dynamic would be like this:
IF CONDITION1 IS TRUE:
SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID
FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView
WHERE CustomerTenderID = @CustomerTenderID
IF CONDITION2 IS TRUE:
SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID
FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView
WHERE CustomerTenderID = @CustomerTenderID AND
CustomerSiteID = @CustomerSiteID
etc etc
Here's the cursor
DECLARE RateList CURSOR FOR
SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID
FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView
WHERE (BASED ON CONDITION)
ORDER BY CustomerTenderID,
CustomerSiteID,
SupplierID,
ContractPeriod
OPEN RateList
FETCH NEXT FROM RateList
INTO@CustomerTenderID, @ReturnedCustomerSiteID, @ReturnedContractPeriod, @ReturnedSupplierID
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @rowNum = @rowNum + 1
-- DO SOME FUNKY STUFF
FETCH NEXT
FROM RateList
INTO@CustomerTenderID, @ReturnedCustomerSiteID, @ReturnedContractPeriod, @ReturnedSupplierID

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

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 need to pass a list of values into a cursor as such...
DECLARE
@group_SQL varchar(255)
SET @group_SQL = 'SELECT group_id FROM groups where group_id in (' + @group_id + ')'
DECLARE groupContact_import_cursor CURSOR
FOR EXEC(@group_SQL)
OPEN groupContact_import_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM groupContact_import_cursor INTO @group_id
WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0)
BEGIN
insert into groupContacts (group_id, contact_id) values (@group_id, @new_cid)
FETCH NEXT FROM groupContact_import_cursor INTO @group_id
END
CLOSE groupContact_import_cursor
DEALLOCATE groupContact_import_cursor
But MS SQL doesn't seem to like the FOR EXEC(@group_SQL). Can someone shed some light?
TIA

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

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?

Help please,Have a situation when converting from Oracle SP's to SQL SP's. The oldoracle cursor was roughly as followsCURSOR cur_rsStock ISselect*from(select StockRowId, CategoryIdfromSTOCKDISPOSABLEwhereSTOCKDEFID=numDefIdORDER BYSTOCKROWID)whereROWNUM <= numQuantity;The closest I can get in MS SQL is as follows :declare cur_rsStockCURSOR forselect top @numQuantityStockRowId, CategoryIdfromSTOCKDISPOSABLEwhereSTOCKDEFID=numDefIdORDER BYSTOCKROWIDBut, SQL doesn't allow variables next to top. I know I can assign the wholeselect statement to a string and use exec to exec the string to get arecordset but how can I point a cursor to receive its output?i.e.set @strSQl = select top ' + @numQuantity + ' StockRowId, CategoryId.......exec @strSQLbut how do I dodeclare cur_rsStockset cur_rsStock = ( exec @strSQL)Flapper

i read in the SET ROWCOUNT documentation URL.... that 'The ROWCOUNT option does not affect dynamic cursors', it does affect my dynamic cursor created in a table function which looks like this :
CREATE FUNCTION MyTableFunction()Â
RETURNS @MyTable TABLE (MYFIELD INTEGER)
AS
BEGIN
 DECLARE @xxx INTEGER
 DECLARE My_Cursor CURSOR DYNAMIC FOR
Â
[code]...
I would like the number of rows retruned by MyTableFunction limited to 2, but NOT the inside proc cursor's select !Set Rowcount 0 is forbidden in table function. I cannot use TOP in select * from MyTableFunction instead of setting ROWCOUNT to 2. I'm using SQL Server 2008 or 2012.

Hi,
In a stored procedure (SP1) I call another stored procedure (SP2), passing along parameters. In SP2 I dynamically build cursor c1. I can execute SP2 without any problems but when I start SP1 I get the following message:
Msg 16916, Level 16, State 1, Procedure SP2, Line 114
A cursor with the name 'C1' does not exist.
Yes, the cursor is of type GLOBAL. I am sure I miss something here ...
Any help is highly appreciated !
Thanks: Peter

The requirement is create a sql script(1 proc or cursor) which will create multiple procedures dynamically.
Table A
Col1Â
Col2
A
Alpha
For Example: If table A has 3 rows(distinct) so 3 procedures will be created dynamically.
Result:Â
1 PROC_A_ALPHA
2Â PROC_B_BETA
3Â PROC_C_charlie

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?

buddies,situation: a processing must take place on every row of a table, andoutput results to another table, that can't be done via an insertinto..select query (let's assume that it's not possible for now).There're 2 solutions I have in mind:1) open a cursor and cycle through each row (The table can have up to1M rows)2) create a clustered index (i.e on an identity column) then have aloop like:declare @i int, @rows int,@col1 varchar(20), @col2 varchar(20),... @coln varchar(20),@outval1 varchar(20),... -- output valuesselect @i=1, @rows = max(xid) from tblname -- xid is clustered indexedwhile (@i<=@rows)beginselect @col1 = col1, @col2 = col2,...@coln = colnfrom tblnamewhere xid = i-- do the processing on the variables-- then insert results to another tableset @i = @i+1endI'd like to know your ideas of which one would be more efficient. Anyother solutions are much appreciatedthanks,Tamy

Hi...
I have a stored procedure that rertrieves data from an sql database
and sends out a mail to each receipient who meets the criteria
I am using SQL mail.
I dynamically generate the where clause for my sql query based on criteria taken
from other stored procedures and store it in a varchar variable
called @sqlquery
When i have the following code to run my cursor
DECLARE overdue3 CURSOR
LOCAL FORWARD_ONLY
FOR SELECT DISTINCT Events.E_Name, Events.E_SDate, Events.E_City,
Events.E_ID FROM Events, IndustryEvents + @sqlquery2
OPEN overdue3
I get an error message at the '+' sign
which says, cannot use empty object or column names, use a single
space if necessary.
What should i do. i have tested the variable @sqlquery and it is
definately not blank. There is no bracket error or anything.
Please help!!!
Thanks much indeed

spouse's rel_code = 02
daughter's rel_code starts from 20 with the oldest and increments by 1.
Son's rel_code starts from 30 and increments by 1 from oldest to the youngest.
I know You can write a Sp with cursor and do this, but I would like to know if you can accomplish the same thing by a select or case or something else instead of a cursor.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to build a select statement for a CURSOR where part of the SQL statement is built using a variable.
The following fails to parse:
Declare Cursor1 Cursor
For
'select table_name from ' + @database + '.Information_Schema.Tables Where Table_Type = ''Base Table'' order by Table_Name'
Open cursor1
That doesn't work, I've also tried using an Execute() statement, no luck there either. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

declare @col varchar(50)
set @col = 'Temperature'
declare notifycurs cursor scroll for
select @col from Table
Obviously this won't work correctly (since the result will simply be 'Temperature' instead of the actual float value for temperature). I tried to use quotes for the entire statement with an EXEC
(ie. exec('select '+@col+' from Table' )
but that gave me an error.
Is there a way to pass in a variable for a column name for a curor select statement????

Hi everyone,
I have been trying to perform the following task:
Using the sys.databases & sys.sysindexes views to display all the columns with a clustered index for all tables and all databases in a given server. So the end result will have 3 columns:
Database name
Table name
Column name from that table with a clustered index
I have already created the following script which displays all the databases for a given server:
declare @DBname nvarchar(128)
declare testCursorForDB cursor
for
select name from sys.databases with (nolock)
where name not in ('master','tempdb','model','msdb')
order by name
open testCursorForDB
fetch next from testCursorForDB
into @DBname
while @@fetch_status = 0
begin
print @DBname
fetch next from testCursorForDB
into @DBname
end
close testCursorForDB
deallocate testCursorForDB
I also have created the following query which will display all the table and column names which have a clustered index for a given database:
select object_name(i.id) as TableName,
i.name as IndexName
from sys.sysindexes as i with (nolock)
where i.indid = '1'
However, what I need help/advice on is how do I combine these two together into one working script (either using nested cursors or a better way). In other words, how can I specify which database to use (ie. using the "use database_name") so that my query above will be applied to each database found within the cursor.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks!

an example for the pb
1)First i have created a dynamic cursor :
DECLARE authors_cursor CURSOR DYNAMIC
FOR Select DISTINCT LOCATION_EN AS "0Location" from am_location WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7
OPEN authors_cursor
FETCH first FROM authors_cursor
2)The result for this cursor is for expamle 'USA'.
3) If now i do an update on that location with a new value 'USA1'
update am_location set location_en = 'USA1' WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7
4)now if i fetch the cursor , i''ll get the old value (USA) not (USA1).
If i remove DISTINCT from the cursor declaration , the process works fine .

the cursor at the bottom  iterates only to print the number of rows.The problem is in the select. This takes 30 seconds to iterate through 1242 records.But if I add a TOP 1000000 or whatever number to the select, the same iteration takes less than a 1 second.I've tested each query without cursor, and  both have the same cost and performance. (Not exactly the same plan)Note that I got the same performance improvement declaring the cursor as STATIC.Why the top is affecting the cursor iteration so much?
Declare @query varchar(512)
DECLARE Itera CURSOR --LOCAL STATIC READ_ONLY FORWARD_ONLY
FOR
select --TOP 1000000
[code]....

An example for my pb
1) Created a dynamic cursor :
DECLARE cursor_teste CURSOR DYNAMIC
FOR Select DISTINCT name from table WHERE ID = 1
OPEN cursor_teste
FETCH first FROM cursor_teste
2)The result for this cursor is for example 'teste'.
3) If now i do an update on that name with a new value 'teste1'
than if i fetch the cursor , i''ll get the old value (teste) .
any idea how to make a select distinct result in a dynamic Cursor?

111.07 212 B .00
13393.05 67 N .00
In above 4 col
if col3 value is B then cursor has to fectch appropriate value from col4.
if col3 value is N then cursor has to fectch appropriate value from col1.
here col2 values are unique.
Can any one reply for this..............

ID DATE(dd/mm/yy) TYPE QTYIN COST_IN_AMT COST_OUT_AMT(MOVING AVERAGE)
1 01/01/2007 PURCHASE 10 1000
2 01/01/2007 PURCHAES 5 1100
3 01/01/2007 SALES -5 *TobeCalculated
4 02/01/2007 Purchase 20 9000
5 02/01/2007 SALES -10 *TobeCalculated
5 02/01/2007 purchase 50 8000
6 03/01/2007 Sales -10 *TobeCalculate
7 01/01/2007 Purchase 20 12000
I have a table when user add new sales or puchase will be added to this table ITEM_TXNS. The above date is part of the table for a ProductID . (The field is removed here)
In order to calculate the balance amount using moving average, I must calculated the cost_out_amt first on the fly.
When user add new sales I also need to determine the cost/unit for a product id using moving average. The problem is I can not just use sum, because i need to determine cost_out_amt for each sales first which will be calculated on the fly.
The reason i dont store the cost_out_amt (instead calculate on the fly) because User could Edit the previous sales/purchase txn or Insert new sales for a previous date. Example THe record with ID 9. By Adding this txn with ID 9, would cause all the cost_out_amt will be incorrect (Using moving Average) if i store the cost_amout_out on entrying txn and need to be recalculated.
Instead I just want to calculate on the fly and able to determine the cost avr for a specific point of time.
Should I just use Cursor and loop all the record and calculate the cost or maybe I can just use on Select Statement?
