Executing SQL Statements In Another Database
Apr 9, 2008
I have a stored procedure named usp_CreateSomeAdminObjects that resides in say a database named AdminStuff (ok, fictional but it gets the point across :) ). This proc generates a series of dynamic SQL statements (DROP TRIGGER, CREATE TRIGGER and EXECUTE sp_settriggerorder) against tables that reside in different databases. However I am unable to change the context of the database from AdminStuff to the database I am cycling. Any suggestions on how I can have execute this dynamic SQL in the context of a specific database (other than the one the proc resides in)?
I can not put the USE statement in a stored procedure. Attempts to use sp_executesql, EXECUTE and even run the script through sqlcmd using either (a) the -d option or (b) a USE <dbname>; statement as part of the -q parameter have all been unsuccessful.
Heck, even if I execute this code through SSMS it does not work as I need it to:
USE OtherDatabaseName;
EXEC DBA.dbo.usp_CreateSomeAdminObjects
I confirmed this by adding these statements to the proc:
/* Gets list of tables from the current database */
SELECT name, create_date FROM sys.objects WHERE type = 'U' ORDER BY name
SELECT DB_NAME();
These statements return a list of user tables that reside in AdminStuff and not OtherDatabaseName (the same goes for the DB_NAME() statement.
Any suggestions on how I can accomplish what I'm looking to do - have this proc execute dynamically generated DDL scripts for tables that reside in a different database. I'd rather not name this procedure sp_CreateSomeAdminObjects and compile it in the master database. If that is my only option I will but figured I'd check out other options first.

Hello,
I am trying to import a very large amount of data into an SQL database. The data is in a format of SQL statements already - it is all in one large text file consisting of a number of CREATE TABLE X and INSERT INTO X VALUES().
The problem is that the amount of values being inserted into some of the tables is so large, that I am unable to open the .SQL file using query analyzer to run it, because the line-size limit for query analyzer is 64kb, whereas actual line-size in the file is in some cases in excess of 15MB.
I would appreciate any advice on how to get all this data into a managable format. I keep thinking that there simply has to be a way to execute these over-size SQL statements.
Thank you in advance!

Hi
What is SQL Server 2005 default behavior with statement like this:
SELECT * FROM dbo.Products
Will it take any shared locks on Products table? Is it different than:
BEGIN TRAN
SELECT * FROM dbo.Products WITH NOLOCK
COMMIT
TIA

Hi,
We have unreliable circuits connecting our office to remote sql servers. At our office I need to delete/insert a bunch of records from those remote locations. Since the connection is unreliable what is the best way to check if a server is available before executing delete/insert statements. A few points to consider:
1. I want this to be done in SQL
2. I have a cursor that cycles through a tabe that contains the name of the linked servers. The cursure is used to delete/insert a bunch of records from each remote server.
3. If one server is unavailable the stored proc should continue to the next sql server (next record in the cursor.)
Thanks,
Bradley

Hi all,
In the VB 2005 Express, I can get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString of a Database "shcDB" in the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) by the following set of code:
///--CallshcSpAdoNetVB2005.vb--////
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub InsertNewFriend()
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
.......................................
etc.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
If the Database "shcDB" and the Stored Procedure "sp_inertNewRecord" are in the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express, I plan to use "Data Source=local" in the following code statements to get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString:
.........................
........................
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=local;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
........................
etc.
Is the "Data Source=local" statement right for this case? If not, what is the right code statement for my case?
Please help and advise.
Thanks,
Scott Chang

Gday guys.
I have a question on a problem I'm unable to solve. Help would be much appreciated.
I'm using SQL2005 at the moment,
Basically what I'm trying to do is Execute a string. The trick is that I want to do it on a different database than the one I'm currently working on.
I get the execution string from the Information_Schema.ROUTINES system table, so they cannot be modified to suit my needs.
Basically, I'm trying to move all UDF's and stored procedures that meet certain criteria to a different database using one script.
I know all about the USE statement, but I can't append it infront of the execution string, because it complains that CREATE or ALTER needs to be the first statement. I also can't use the USE statement before I call EXECUTE, because it complains that a USE statement may not be used within a procedure.
Does anybody know of a way I can execute those strings on a different database?

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

Hello,Could some clarify for me? I’ve been told that I should add lock statements to my database write querys (update, delete, insert). I’m not sure If it’s necessary though. The only documentation I’ve found so far is how to implement a lock statement with threading but I’m not using the threading namespace. What best practice and how would I implement this without threading or should I be using threading?Thanks in advance!

MySql has a statement like:
SHOW CREATE TABLE tablename;
that returns the precise CREATE TABLE statement for the specified tablename.
Sql Management Studio also allows scripting Create Statement for any object by right-clicking it.
But I want to do this programatically, and fetch CREATE statements for Tables, Procedures & Views.
How can I retrive CREATE statements for Database objects progrmatically in Sql Server???

Hi all,
Could someone tell me how to get the data from all tables of the database in the form of insert script? We are moving our databse from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. The scripts for the Database, Tables, Views , Procedures, Functions have been obtained and it is only the data that is remaining. Some are small tables with 5 to 6 columns but there are some with 50 odd columns. A friend of mine told me about a procedure that returns a dataset with INSERT statements by passing a table name as a parameter. Such procedure would be of great help.
Thank you

I have setup a Database Audit Specification as follows:
Audit Action Type: SELECT | Object Class: DATABASE | Object Name: SHOPDB | Principal Name: public
Now, when I perform a SELECT query with a bound parameter such as:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='queryname'
What I see through the Audit Logs is something like:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='@1'
I understand that it is by design that we cannot see these parameters throught Database Level Auditing. I would like to know whether it is possible to see these parameters by any other means using
(1) SQL Server Enterprise Edition,
(2) SQL Server Standard Edition, or
(3) by an external tool.

I use SQL Server 2005.I want to create a SP "Search". With this function a user can serach the member database on several criteria: age minimal, age maximal, name, city..BUT these criteria do not necessarily have to be defined by the user, so it might be that a user searches for all members whose age is between ageMin and ageMax leaving the name and city criteria empty.So in my SP I have to check whether these values are empty or not. If a parameter is not empty I have to add it to my selection query.. BUT, I know that SQL Server makes an execution plan, and understood that when you use if-statements the procedure needs to be recompiled every time?Is this true? If so:how does this work then?Is there another way for me to still be able to create this SP?

I need to create a brief statement in Design View for SQL 2000.
I successfully wrote "isnull(dbo.Data.Parcel,'')in the Column in Design View, which would ensure that a null value would be listed as a blank. Now I need to have dbo.data.status show as 'C&G' in any instance of data, otherwise it will be listed as blank. I tried writing "isnotnull(db0.data.status,'Homestead', '')", but it does not work.
Is there a simple statement I can write in "column" of design view that can get the results that I need?

Hello,
I have a report with 1 field that I need to sum into 2 different textboxes based on another field's value.
Specifically, Is it simply doing something like this below?
=Iif(Fields!iBB.Value=1, Sum(Fields!Billed.Value)
=Iif(Fields!iBB.Value=0, Sum(Fields!UnBilled.Value)
Which will not get past intellisense checking, -or- do I have to do something different here?
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys! I have these commands that insert into two tables, if condition 1 is met, it will insert into the first table, if the second condition is met, it will insert into the second table.
Is there a way for the insert statements to be merged so that I won't be executing two statements?
Dim update_phase_before As New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO TE_shounin_todokesho_jizen (syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou) SELECT syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou FROM TE_todokesho WHERE TE_todokesho.b_a='before'", cnn)
Dim update_phase_after As New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO TE_shounin_todokesho_jigo (syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou) SELECT syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou FROM TE_todokesho WHERE TE_todokesho.b_a='after'", cnn)
