EXEC In SQL Functions
Sep 1, 2006
Hi,
I need to pass a table name and id to a function and return a row count
I need to use EXEC or SP_EXECUTESQL to run dynamic SQL
It wont work in functions. Following is my function
alter FUNCTION [dbo].[GetRowCount] (@TblName NVARCHAR(25) , @Itemid INT)
RETURNS INT
AS BEGIN
DECLARE @RowCnt INT
set @RowCnt = 0
DECLARE @Sqlstring nvarchar(2000)
set @Sqlstring = 'SELECT @RowCnt = COUNT(*) FROM ['+ @TblName +'] WHERE Itemid = '+ convert(varchar(10),@Itemid)
EXEC @Sqlstring
RETURN @RowCnt
END
while executing this I get the following error ....
"Only functions and extended stored procedures can be executed from within a function." and "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'EXEC' "
does anyone have any ideas of this ?
Thanks.

I have an exec() statement in a stored procedure:
Code:
exec('insert into foo
select a, b, c, dbo.bar(d, e)
from baz')
dbo.bar() is a function defined elsewhere. It works OK
by itself.
Getting this error when running the stored procedure:
Code:
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'bar'. No entry found with that name.
How do I force SQL Server to recognize the function's name?
Thanks.

I'm using MS SQL Server 2005.
I want to simulate a table, using a Multi-statement Table-Value User-Defined Function, but I need the function build the SQL statement from scratch each time so I can dynamically define values like the table it references. The only way I know how to run the query after it has been defined in this manner is to run an EXEC command. However I'm getting an error basically saying that the EXEC command is off limits in a User Defined Function.
The Exsact Error is:
>[Error] Script lines: 1-108 ------------------------
Invalid use of side-effecting or time-dependent operator in 'EXECUTE STRING' within a function.
Is there some way to get around this limitation of User Defined Functions. Or perhaps a way to simulate the functionality of Multi-statement Table-Value User-Defined Functions in a Store Procedure, specifically the ability to run where statements, or transform the data on the fly without re-writing the Stored Procedure every time.
The code I’m trying to run is below.
(Note: The code works as a stored procedure, so I'm sure that the core of the statment is correct)
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[TrendLine]
(
@Summary as smallint,
@Start as datetime,
@End as datetime,
@Table as varchar(100),

here's an example of what I am trying to do.
--Exec Database.Employees
--Use Database
--Go
--Create PROCEDURE AEM.TempTable
--AS
--BEGIN
--Select * into #emptemp From Database.Employees
--End
--Select * From #emptemp
Is something like this possible? I can get the EXEC to run the "Select * into #emptemp From Database.Employees" statement, but when I try to use the temp table it doesnt see it.

I was playing around with the new SQL 2005 CLR functionality andremembered this discussion that I had with Erland Sommarskog concerningperformance of scalar UDFs some time ago (See "Calling sp_oa* infunction" in this newsgroup). In that discussion, Erland made thefollowing comment about UDFs in SQL 2005:[color=blue][color=green]>>The good news is that in SQL 2005, Microsoft has addressed several of[/color][/color]these issues, and the cost of a UDF is not as severe there. In fact fora complex expression, a UDF in written a CLR language may be fasterthanthe corresponding expression using built-in T-SQL functions.<<I thought the I would put this to the test using some of the same SQLas before, but adding a simple scalar CLR UDF into the mix. The testinvolved querying a simple table with about 300,000 rows. Thescenarios are as follows:(A) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column(B) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column and as a criterionin the WHERE clause(C) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column(D) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion in theWHERE clause(E) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column(F) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion inthe WHERE clauseA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(295310 row(s) affected)A: 1563(150003 row(s) affected)B: 906(295310 row(s) affected)C: 2703(150003 row(s) affected)D: 2533(295310 row(s) affected)E: 2060(150003 row(s) affected)F: 2190The scalar CLR UDF function was significantly faster than the classicscalar UDF, even for this very simple function. Perhaps a more complexfunction would have shown even a greater difference. Based on this, Imust conclude that Erland was right. Of course, it's still faster tostick with basic built-in functions like CASE.In another test, I decided to run some queries to compare built-inaggregates vs. a couple of simple CLR aggregates as follows:(G) Calculate averages by group using the built-in AVG aggregate(H) Calculate averages by group using a CLR aggregate that similatesthe built-in AVG aggregate(I) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group (average excluding highestand lowest values) using built-in aggregates(J) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group using a CLR aggregatespecially designed for this purposeA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(59 row(s) affected)G: 313(59 row(s) affected)H: 890(59 row(s) affected)I: 216(59 row(s) affected)J: 846It seems that the CLR aggregates came with a significant performancepenalty over the built-in aggregates. Perhaps they would pay off if Iwere attempting a very complex type of aggregation. However, at thispoint I'm going to shy away from using these unless I can't find a wayto do the calculation with standard SQL.In a way, I'm happy that basic SQL still seems to be the fastest way toget things done.

When using a SP for getting a recordset is there any issues with using exec like in: rs.open "exec spWhatever"...
Should I use rs.open "spWhatever" or does it really matter performance wise on the SQL server?

declare @SumValue Varchar(255);
Set @TableName = 'TrDs01' -- Testing Only--DELETE!!
------------------------Set Statements using @TableName Var------------------------------------------
Set @DSNo = 'select distinct DataSupplierNo from ' + @TableName

Insert into TransactionMaster([FileName],DataSupplierNo,ImportFileRecordID,FileLoadDate,
UnitsSum,ValueSum,RecordCount)
Select(@Filename),(exec(DSNo)), ................
Just the Bold and underlined bit "exec(DSNo)"..... is this doable in some way? can i use exec to retrieve the value to insert to data supplier. As far as i know i have to do it like this because im using a variable as the table name...

I need help understanding the syntax of the "exec sql" statement.
i am looking at code that build an sql string such as
sql="exec SOMETHING Session("id")"
or something like that.
then, there is
conn.execute(sql)
My question is the "SOMETHING" in the sql statement...is what? I know it is user defined (object or variable or such), but what exactly is it? i look through the rest of the code and don;'t see SOMETHING defined elsewhere.
i am not sure if i am asking the question right. i don't understand what the SOMETHING is doing, or why it is there.
in particular, the code i am examining is
sql="exec SurveyDelete "&"'" & Session("StudentID") & " ' "
conn.execute(sql)
i understand the this statement will delete a record, but how does it handle "SurveyDelete", how does it know what the is when it is not defined anywhere else in the code?

Hi,
I have a written a SP to do indexdefrag to all user table indexes in a databases...I had to use dynamic sql so I can reuse this code for any DB...
declare @strsql varchar(500)
set @strsql = ' dbcc indexdefrag('+'''DBName'''+',554556545,3)'
exec (@strsql)
When I execute the above script, I immeaditely see the results in the query analyser like below:
Pages Scanned Pages Moved Pages Removed
------------- ----------- -------------
3 0 0
Looks like the indexdefrag did not happen since the logical fragmentation is still a high number like 30%.....
Just wondering whats goin on..
Thanks.

is it possible to have a sproc with a input parm of a column name and have this column name be inserted into an exec statement that runs and provides the output as a OUTPUT parm instead of a result set?
i can get the sproc to take the column name as a parm, run the exec, but cannot figure out how to assign the "dynamic sql" output to a OUTPUT variable instead of returning the result set.

Running this dynamic sql construct gives me an error because somehow it does not accept my variable @table or it is recognised differently. If run directly no problem but apparently the single quotes are a problem.
Print @Table (db and table name: opms..transactions)
Select @sql = 'Select * From Payments where not exists (Select * from Hist Where TableName = ' + @Table + ' and sYear = '+ @Year + ' and sMonth = ' + @Month + ')'
Print @sql
EXEC (@sql)

I have a stored proc that assigns a value to a field based on user input from an Access front end.
The last part of the stored proc sends an email if certain conditions are met.
It appears that users do not have permission to execute xp_sendmail. I guess this is because it is executed on the master database. Is there a way I can give them permission to this stored proc?
The users are getting this message:

OK, I'm fairly new to SQL Server, but I know SQL and databases pretty well. I'm just starting to use the dynamic SQL feature of SQL Server (with EXEC), and am wondering how to return a scalar value from a dynamic SQL expression. I realize I can't use EXEC in a user-defined function, but I want to create a stored procedure with one OUTPUT variable so I can simulate a function. The following code does not work, because EXEC does not return a value:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ExecFunction ( @ScalarSELECTString varchar(250), @@ReturnVal sql_variant )
set @@ReturnVal = ( exec @ScalarSELECTString )
go
So, I was wondering if someone might be able to suggest a way to re-write the above code to achieve the same effect. Thanks in advance.

An INSERT EXEC statement cannot be nested.
I have seen the following link which discuss this issue,

I am presently encountering the following exception.
SSIS package "DW.CUST_CNCL_ORD.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC00291E2 at BP Parter Exec SQL, Execute SQL Task: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_Rowset".
Task failed: BP Parter Exec SQL
Warning: 0x80019002 at DW CUST_CNCL_ORD: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (1) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "DW.CUST_CNCL_ORD.dtsx" finished: Failure.
Try as I do to find information regarding this exception, I am not able to. Can anyone share their wisdom on this topic?
Question two:
Is there a book that you may recommend that will contribute to my learning this new platform and evironment? I presently have the SQL Server 2005 integration services book.
Thank you in advance for any information you may provide.
God Bless.
Thanks,
Carlos.

declare @rej_nm as varchar(50)
exec('select count(*), ' + "'@rej_nm'" + 'from ' + @rej_nm)
trying to return the rowcount AND the name of the object. return set should look like this:
12, tbl_name
i've tried single quotes around @rej_nm, nested single quotes, single/double nested, etc..
instead, i get an error stating that @rej_nm is not a valid column of tbl_name. bottomline...
how do i return a variable 'value' within a select statement...
thanks!
