Executing Cursors With ASP
Jan 19, 2006
Hi,
I have written a Stored Procedure which opens a Cursor , carries out some functionality and the I De-Allocate and Close it.When I execute the Stored Procedure from Query Analyzer it works fine.However, When I execute it through ASP it does not.
Conn.Execute "Execute Proc_Name"
The Connection Object (Conn) works fine for other pages as it is in an include file.
If I remove the Cursor from the Stored_Proc the other Statements get executed , however the Execution stops when Cursor Code is there.(Though works fine with Query Anaylzer)
No error is thrown, I have checked with Query Profiler and it shows that though Stored Procedure is called but the statements in it are not executed.
There are no Parameters to it, as all it is doing is comparing values of two tables and inserting it into 1st table and deleting from the second.
Pl. Help, As Stored_Proc works fine when executed through
Query analyzer but not thru ASP.
Thanx

Hi,
I have a web application using Stored Procedure (SP). I see that there's a SP taking long time to execute. I try to capture it by Profiler Tool, and find out that with the same SP on the same db with the same parameter. The duration of executing by my web app is far bigger than the duration of executing on SQl server management studio - query window
Please see the image through this url http://kyxao.net/127/ExecutionProblem.png
Any ideas for this issue?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I'm writting a stored procedure to insert new rows into a table, but I need to loop through an exsiting table and create a new record for every row in the old table. So I think what I'm needing to use is a cursor, but I've never worked with cursors before, and I just want to check that I have the right idea on what they are used for and if what I have so far looks ok.
This what I have so far, the StoreFees table only has 5 rows:
DECLARE @StoreFee as smallmoney
DECLARE @StoreLineID as int
DECLARE MyStoreFees CURSOR
FORWARD_ONLY
FOR
SELECT LineId, StoreFee FROM StoreFees ORDER BY StoreFee
OPEN MyStoreFees
FETCH NEXT FROM MyStoreFees
INTO @StoreLineId, @StoreFee
--Do my Inserts into other tables
INSERT INTO OtherTable (...,...,.., @StoreFee)
...
...
-- Done working with that row
CLOSE MyStoreFees

I am trying to pull the data via fetching rows into a variable.
Begin
Fetch Next Into @temp...
Select @MainVariable = @MainVariable + @temp < @temp doesn't refresh with next fetch)
Print @temp < this works fine and returns the value for each fetch
End
I can print @temp and the data returns fine, but when I try to cancantenate with the above select, it doesn't refresh @temp wit the column in the table.
Any ideas?

I have two procedures. One works well, and the other has a small glitch I cannot figure out. I have placed >>>> at the place where the problem is occuring.
The first procedure, which is working great, is applying a stored procedure to many servers (remote procedure call), but is also polling the local server via a linked server connection. This way, all servers are polled equally.
The second procedure is actually using a SELECT statment to query a system table. This procedure works well on all servers except the local one. I get this error message:
Server: Msg 3910, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Transaction context in use by another session.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Unspecified error]
There seems to be a connection issue. Can someone help me work around this?
Thank you,
Neal

I have stored procedure in that I am using a cursor to fetch the row by row.
cursor is fetching 75000 records so that the procedure is taking long time.
Is there any way to replace the cursor to fetch the records row by row.

Please help resolve a problem (and debate!).
We have an app using VB with Access as the front end to SQL. SQL statments were built and sent
directly to the server obtaining set-oriented results. Response was fair.
We have a new app developed by an "expert" using VB & Interdev that was to be ported for use on
the internet. The app was designed using the same logic to build the SQL statements, but it is also
using cursors to retrieve all data. RESPONSE IS TERRIBLE!
The designer says that to access SQL over the Web, cursor use is a MUST!
True? Not True?
If true, and I am stuck with an app using cursors, any basic suggestions on where to look to improve
response time?
Thanks for any input.

Hi,
I am using SQL Server 6.5 and I have a VB routine that updates a field in a tble so it can be used in a primary key. This is run after input of data using bcp. I have noticed on several posts re: using cursors to move through a recordset and was wondering if I could use this functionality to replace my VB routine. I checked the archives and found several messages but I am not sure where to start. My VB routine is:
I first would query the data to return all rows where the value of R08SegmentValue= Null. Then I move through the resultset changing the value of the field R08Segments.
***********************Start of VB Code****************
'Set initial value for sTReportHeaderIdx
With rs1
sTReportHeaderIdx = !ReportIdx & !HeaderIdx
sPReportHeaderIdx = sTReportHeaderIdx
End With
bCount = 1
'loop through rs and when streportheaderidx changes reset bCount to 1
'otherwise increment bcount by 1 and write to field R08SegmentValue
Do While rs1.EOF = False And blnContinue = True
DoEvents
Do While sPReportHeaderIdx = sTReportHeaderIdx
With rs1
.Edit
!R08SegmentValue = bCount
.Update
bCount = bCount + 1
sPReportHeaderIdx = sTReportHeaderIdx
.MoveNext
If Not rs1.EOF Then sTReportHeaderIdx = !ReportIdx & !HeaderIdx
End With
Loop
sPReportHeaderIdx = sTReportHeaderIdx
bCount = 1
Loop
In the end my data should look like
ReportIdx HeaderIdx R08SegmentValue
1 1 1
1 1 2
2 1 1
2 1 2
2 1 3
3 1 1
3 1 2
3 1 3
1 2 1
1 2 2
1 2 3
etc..
Can this be done via an sp? How would I go about writing something like this?
Thanks in advance...any assistance you could provide would be appreciated!

I hope someone can help me with this, as BOL didn't get me the answer I am looking for.
I want to write an update step that will transform the following:
1 abc
1 def
2 lmn
3 rst
4 tuv
4 xyz
4 jkl
5 pqr
into this:
1 abc,def
2 lmn
3 rst
4 tuv,xyz,jkl
5 pqr
In other words, I want to concatenate multiple instances into 1 record per row, but I am not familiar with working with cursors or loops.
Thanks in advance!

According go textbooks and T-SQL developers experience - using cursors is not recommended, more over they say: avoid cursors where it's possible.
Could someone please recommend any other way to go through the recordset(resultset) forward and backward to perform some search or calculations, if there are a specific requirement for not using front-end tools such as VB or MS Access(please don't ask why), other words - all the work must be performed in T-SQL stored procedure.
Thanks

I have a stored proc that merges records from an undeduped table to a deduped table. It is running really slowly. Merging 70 million records against a deduped 70 million is taking 115 hours and counting on decent hardware. Very slow.
I suspect there is significant room for optimization here. Some of my ideas:
- Write/update back to the cursor rather than executing separate UPDATE statements.
- Try a dynamic cursor instead of a READ ONLY cursor.
- Dump new elements to a separate table or a file and then do a single large INSERT.
Anyone else think any of these ideas will work? Can anyone think of something better?
BTW, I've tried to replaced the procedural cursor code with set based UPDATES/INSERTS but the short version of the story is that that route just didn't pan out. I know that is very common optimization advice.
I've made minor simplifications to the code:
- Took out code to handle last line
- Took out progress logging code
- Removed some DECLARE statements. These are needed to run but it should be obvious what they were supposed to be.

These guys I work with have some sql scripts they run over night and they bog down the server and the machine will be gummed up in the morning etc..
Well, I finally looked at this processing and the culprit is cursors. And cursors within cursors. I would like to just get some opinions about what would be more processor efficient so I can send my boss a link to this thread.
Using a cursors to pull records and update them.
vs
Create script using a scripting language that pulls the records through ADO, loops through them and performs updates as necessary using update statements and the like.
Be nice. I have to work with these guys.

Hey guys
I have heard cursors are not the way to go. But I am wondering if/how to get out of a situation that I am using a cursor in...in order to make my stored proc run more effieciently.
I am quite novice in my abilities and I am completely stumped on how to get around using them.
As far as INSERTs go, I think I can work around that, but how would I write UPDATE statements for all lines of a table to say pull a key from another table to reference them together?
I usually make my SELECT statement in the cursor, then update against the criteria from the SELECT statement. Now this is quite a slow process when I am updating 100K records.
Any help or pointers or a link to a good tutorial would be woderful.
Thanks

I have a requirement to check a value which MUST be unique forever even if it is removed and readded.I have created a seperate table to maintain this value.
Without using a cursor how would I be able to append a duplicate base value (i.e. smith.j@here.now) with the next sequential value (i.e. smith.j02@here.now)
Any takers?
Oh ya, These values are not manually entered but populated through a DTS script. The existing values are repopulated from historic tables and new entries are added automatically. Initially the values would be populated without a number but a number needs to be generated on duplicates.
