Exec SP Many Times, From Select?
Aug 5, 2004
Hi All...
if i had the following sp...
*******************************************************
create procedure my_insert (param1 int, param2 int, paramx int)
as
...
complicated insert routine
...
return
*******************************************************
and then i wanted to exec this sp in another procedure i would have
exec my_insert( 1_value, 2_value, 3_value )
My question is how could i exec this will the result set of a select.... something like this
exec my_insert (select 1_value, 2_value, 3_value from another_table).
I know i could have this in an insert result type statement ie...
insert into dest_table (select 1_value, 2_value, 3_value from another_table)
but my insert routine is quite complicated and carries out some other functions so I would like to call (exec) a sp rather than repeating the complication in the select statement
Many Thanks

I have a problem that is starting out in Reporting Services but I believe also involves basic SQL issues.
In SSRS, I have a report created that will execute in 30 seconds when the default parameters are entered. If I change the parameters, the report will take 9 minutes to execute. If I reverse the values of the parameters, I'll get the same results. The default will run in 30 seconds and the entered values will run in 9 minutes.
So to recap the scenarios. First test:
Default set to US - run time 25 seconds
Change country to UK - runs in 9 minutes
Then change the programming of the defaults and:
Default set to UK - run time 25 seconds
Change default to US - runs in 9 minutes
Upon doing some further investigation, I've discovered that the SQL is being executed with two different execution plans. WIth the default paramters (regardless of what they are) execution Plan A is used. When the parameters are changed, execution Plan B is used. I do no know enough about execution plans to read through them and understand the differences, however, the plans are not really the issue. The issue is why does SQL Server create two different execution plans?
In Plan A, default set to US, the execution plan does not see the passed parameters. The values are directly entered into the SQL. In this example, the query will run in about 30 seconds.
WHERE (REGION IN (N'US',N'Canada')) AND (SUB_REGION IN (N'Canada',N'US')) AND (COUNTRY IN (N'Canada',N'United States of America'))
In Plan B, changed to UK, the parameters are passed and are seen in the SQL. In this example, the query will take about 9 minutes to run.
WHERE (REGION IN (@Region_Selected)) AND (SUB_REGION IN (@Sub_Region_Selected)) AND (COUNTRY IN (N'Great Britain',N'Ireland'))
For some reason, the parameter @Country_Selected isn't passed but the values are entered. In this example, Great Britain and Ireland.
Why does SSRS substitute the parameters for the values in Plan A but not in Plan B?
Why does the SQL engine care and create two different execution plans?

Hi,
If i have an SP called mySP that accepts one parameter @param
If I have a table of paramaters with only one column like this:
Param1
Param2
..
ParamN
How do I do if I want to execute the SP on all the table fields:
some thing like this:
Exec my SP 'Param1'
Exec mySP 'Param2'
...
Exec mySP 'ParamN'
I want that automatically since the parameters are going to be in a table called myTblParams
Notice that I don t want to pass all the parameters to the SP just once but only one value each time I execute the SP since mySP ccepts only one parameter.
Thanks a lot for guidelines

These select and sp is OK for 1 or 2 week without any problem,but it didn't work one day.
Can some one explain why?

The developers of frond end ask to select only one row from one table, but many times, such as 10. That means the output has 10 rows and same.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Code:
exec('select RIGHT(00000 + CAST(dh.zipcode AS varchar(5)), 5) as zip, '+@fieldname +' as distance into #distance from sumplicity.dbo.t_distancetohospital dh')
This runs normally and returns the number of rows created. Yet when I do a 'select * from #distance' query, I get a message that #distance doesn't exist.
Where is it storing all of this and how do I access it?

I'd *like* to execute a sProc within another sProc, because this other one (let's call it dataProc) will provide me with results I need that are calculated based off execing other procs within that proc itself.
I'd like to use this data in a new sProc (we'll call it newProc), but I don't need NEARly all of the columns. The dataProc returns 1 row with 42 columns. I need about 4-5 of those for my newProc.
The dataProc does not have any output variables, and I do not want to change the signature, because several pages/apps use this existing dataProc.
My question:
Is there a way to INSERT INTO table EXEC dataProc
*Without* making a temp table that takes in every single column the dataProc puts out?
Any help is much appreciated.. thanks!

some one can tell if i can make a "where" clause inside the BCP , when i say : select * FROM tbl where flag=N , usually the where flag='N' works with the ' ' , but it gives no error when save the store procedure without it ' ' saves nicely the SP,
but
like this it saves well "SELECT * FROM tbl where flag=N" and
when i execute it, give a sql statement error "Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Invalid column name N."
i dont now , any help
PS: perhaps at the end of the BCP ---> -c -T , must have some more or less

Hello, I recently view a webcast of sql injection, and at this moment I created a user, and give dbo to this user, and this same user, is the one I have in the connection string of my web application, I want to create a user to prevent sql injection attacks, I mean that user wont be able to drop or create objects, only select views, tables, exec insert,update, deletes and exec stored procedures.
Is any easy way to do this?

I'm trying to execute a stored procedure within the case clause of select statement.
The stored procedure returns a table, and is pretty big and complex, and I don't particularly want to copy the whole thing over to work here. I'm looking for something more elegant.
@val1 and @val2 are passed in
CREATE TABLE #TEMP(
tempid INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
myint INT NOT NULL,
mybool BIT NOT NULL
)
INSERT INTO #TEMP (myint, mybool)
SELECT my_int_from_tbl,
CASE WHEN @val1 IN (SELECT val1 FROM (EXEC dbo.my_stored_procedure my_int_from_tbl, my_param)) THEN 1 ELSE 0
FROM dbo.tbl
WHERE tbl.val2 = @val2
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM #TEMP WHERE mybool = 1
If I have to, I can do a while loop and populate another temp table for every "my_int_from_tbl," but I don't really know the syntax for that.
Any suggestions?

I have set up an sql server which has a column called times. This column is to hold race times however when i enter times such as 22:20:89 with the 89 being milliseconds i am not bale to input this it will only allow me to put times in where milliseconds are below 60. This is a problem especially for the shorter races where half a second is a big difference.
Thanks Mike

SQL Statement.
Adding times together.
I am trying to add a list of times together retrieved from my database.
They are from seperate records in the same table.
They are in a date format e.g. 01-Jan-2006 03:45:00, what I want to do is ignore the 01-Jan-2006 part as well as the :00 AM part and focus on the hours and minutes. I wish to add these up e.g. 03:45 + 04:45 = 08:30. Is there an easy way of doing this?
Below is the SQL statement of getting times from my database if its any help.
SQL StatementSELECT LENGTH_OF_VISIT FROM NOV.MAIN;
Returned Results
30-Apr-2007 02:00:00 AM
30-Apr-2007 01:00:00 AM

Hello everyone,
I have an odd issue and I can't seem to figure it out. I am using SQL Server 2005 and I am using Transactions in combination with Try/Catch blocks. My query (executing the stored procedure) never seems to finish the query in query analyzer. I have removed all statements that exectute or select, etc upon the database except for a simple Select 'test' as test so I would have something in my Begin/End blocks. Below is my stored proc:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ar_mainCheckRecon]
@tripID int,
@payment money,
@adjustment money,
@serviceType tinyint,
@checkTpId int,
@checkTlId int,
@checkNbr varchar(20)
AS
BEGINSET NOCOUNT ON;
BEGIN TRY
BEGIN TRAN select 'test' as test
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
RAISERROR('Error commiting transaction', 16,1)
ROLLBACK TRAN
SELECT '0' as success
END CATCH
COMMIT TRANSELECT '0' as errorCode
END
I call upon the sproc by running this line in query analyzer:
exec ar_mainCheckRecon 433636, 0, 500, 0, 500, 0, 23
Is there something I am overlooking as to why the query keeps running and never stops? My current execution time is at 3 mins accoring to query analyzer!
Thanks,John

When using a SQL Server DateTime column to store just times, e.g. '6:00 PM' I've noticed some weird inconsistency.
If I insert a time in a SQL statement, such as... INSERT INTO myTable (StartTime) VALUES ('6:00 PM')
It winds up going in as '1/1/1900 6:00 PM'. This is okay. This is in fact what I want (unless of course the base day for sql server is in fact 12/30/1899, which is my next question).
If, on the other hand, I insert a time value by hand, using SQL Server Management Studio, then after I insert '6:00 PM' it winds up as '<Today's Date> 6:00 PM', i.e. '1/20/2008 6:00 PM'.
Also, if I insert it using a SQL Parameter, such as...
da.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("@StartTime", SqlDbType.DateTime, 8, "StartTime")
...Then, if StartTime is 6:00 PM again, it also winds up going in as '<Today's Date> 6:00 PM'.
Is there a way to control this behavior (other than to programmatically append a base date to the time I'm inserting)?
Finally, what is the base day for SQL Server 2005? Is it 1/1/1900 or 12/30/1899? I think I've seen both.
Thanks!

Anyone know of an easy way to work with datetime columns ignoring the time part.
I want to "group by" the date so it is vital that the time part goes.
But I still want to work with the resulting date as a date (i.e. use date functions) so I would prefer to keep the datetime data type.

Hi
I'm new in SQL. I have a big problem
Database: MSSQL 2000
I have two tables: (results) one with numeric results and one with names (importance_scale)
SELECT * FROM results
name i1 i2 i3 i4 i5
---- ---- ---- ---- ----
john 2 1 2 2 2
anna 0 2 2 2 2
phil 2 2 2 2 2
dave 1 0 2 2 2
SELECT * FROM importance_scale
imp_value imp_name
--------- ------------
2 very important
1 important
0 not important
i1,i2 etc. value it is a imp_value from table 'importance_scale'
I would like to make report which will show all results in this format (in example only first record):
name i1 i2 i3 i4 i5 etc.
----- --- --- --- --- ---
john very important important very important very important very important etc.
I was thinking about using CASE I don't want use cursor. What is the best way?

I want to enter times for running event performances (like 10:26.35 for a person's 2-mile time, for instance). I am using sql server 2000. This is an ongoing concern for me since I do a lot of work with running events. Can someone give me some direction as to how I can best deal with this?
The datetime data types do a lot of converting to 'time-of-day' and that is not what I want. For instance, if I enter a 2-mile time of 10:26.35 (a pretty typical 2-mile time) my db converts it to 10:26:35 AM.
If I use varchar data type there is a ton of code to write when I want to sort the data.
Thanks!
