Is there anyway to extract part of a string in a stored procedure
using a parameter as the starting point?
For example, my string might read: x234y01zx567y07zx541y04z
My Parameter is an nvarchar and the value is: "x567y"
What I want to extract is the two charachters after the parameter, in
this case "07".
Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
Thanks,

hi everyone ive written a stored procedure which returns a value depending on the i/p parameterive executed it in the object browser but i cant extract it from the stored proc to the front end create procedure checking ( @username varchar(20), @password varchar(20) ,@result int out)asif @username ='admin'set @result = 1else set @result = 0 return @resultGOand this is what i wrote in the code behind SqlCommand check = new SqlCommand("checking",con);//checking is the stored procedure check.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; check.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@username", SqlDbType.VarChar)).Value = TxtUsername.Value; check.Parameters.Add (new SqlParameter("@password", SqlDbType.VarChar)).Value = TxtPassword.Value; check.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@result", SqlDbType.Int)).Value = 0;int status = ( Convert.toint32 )check.executenonquery();// the line which is prolly causing the error , can u tell me what should be written here? the status returns -1

I am stuck on how to syntactically retrieve an output value (@ProdCount) from a stored procedure. The SPROC works fine: the value of @ProdCount appears correctly in the output window.

Not sure this is the right forum as I'm not sure quite what the problem is, but I have a feeeling it's the stored procedure that I'm using to replace the SQL string I used previously.I have a search form used to find records in a (SQL Server 2005) db. The form has a number of textboxes and corresponding checkboxes. The user types in a value they want to search for (e.g. search for a surname) and then selects the corresponding checkbox to indicate this. Or they can search for both surname and firstname by typing in the values in the correct textboxes and selecting the checkboxes corressponding to surname and firstname.The code to make this work looks like this:---------------------------------------- Dim conn As SqlConnection Dim comm As SqlCommand Dim param As SqlParameter Dim param2 As SqlParameter Dim param3 As SqlParameter Dim param4 As SqlParameter Dim objDataset As DataSet Dim objAdapter As SqlDataAdapter conn=NewSqlConnection("blah, blah") comm = New SqlCommand 'set properties of comm so it uses conn & recognises which stored proc to execute comm.Connection = conn comm.CommandText = "SPSearchTest3" comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure 'create input parameter, set it's type and value param = comm.CreateParameter param.ParameterName = "@empid" param.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input param.Value = txtPatID.Text param2 = comm.CreateParameter param2.ParameterName = "@LastName" param2.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input param2.Value = txtSurname.Text comm.Parameters.Add(param) comm.Parameters.Add(param2) conn.Open() objAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(comm) objDataset = New DataSet objAdapter.Fill(objDataset) dgrdRegistration.DataSource = objDataset dgrdRegistration.DataBind() conn.Close()------------------------------------While the stored procedure is this:------------------------------ @EmpID int, @LastName nvarchar(20) ASSELECT EmployeeID, LastName, Firstname, BirthDate, Address, title, addressFROM employeesWHERE (DataLength(@EmpID) = 0 OR EmployeeID = @EmpID)AND (DataLength(@LastName) = 0 OR LastName = @LastName)------------------------------This will work if I search using EmployeeID and Surname or only by EmployeeID, but I don't get any results if I search only for Surname, even though I know the record(s) exits in the db and I've spelled it correctly. Can someone point out where I'm going wrong?(Incidentally if I have a procedure with has only one parameter 'surname' or 'employeeID', it works fine!)Thanks very much and sorry about the long-winded post.

HiI have a problem trying to compare a string value in a WHERE statement. Below is the sql statement. ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedure1(@oby char,@Area char,@Startrow INT,@Maxrow INT, @Minp INT,@Maxp INT,@Bed INT
)
ASSELECT * FROM
(
SELECT row_number() OVER (ORDER BY @oby DESC) AS rownum,Ref,Price,Area,Town,BedFROM [Houses] WHERE ([Price] >= @Minp) AND ([Price] <= @Maxp) AND ([Bed] >= @Bed) AND ([Area] = @Area)) AS AWHERE A.rownum BETWEEN (@Startrow) AND (@Startrow + @Maxrow) The problem is the Area variable if i enter it manually it works if i try and pass the variable in it doesn't work. If i change ([Area] = @Area) to ([Area] = 'The First Area') it is fine. The only problem i see is that the @Area has spaces, but i even tried passing 'The First Area' with the quotes and it still didnt work.Please help, its got to be something simple.Thanks In Advance
Up till now I've used SP's for updates and only ever needed to return error messages.
Now I have an SP that checks and validates something and has to return a string containing the result, (always a string/varchar!)
It works fine in Query Analyzer, I just need a demo of how to incorporate it into a VB app.
Hope that makes sense.

I am somewhat new to the world of programming with SQL Server and was wondering if this could be done. Well I know it can be done but was wondering how it might be done.
I have a DTS package created to import a table from and AS400 server. What I need to do is take one field and parse that field into 5 different values for 5 new fields.
Here is what I know needs to be done but not sure how to put into the procedure.
CREATE proc ChangeHIS
as
--Declare Variables
Declare @LastName varchar,
@FirstName varchar,
@MI varchar,
@ID varchar,
@Dept varchar,
@intCount int,
@UserName varchar,
@strTemp varchar
--Create Temporary Table
CREATE TABLE [EmployeeAudit].[dbo].[tmpTable] (
[UPUPRF] varchar (10),
[UPTEXT] varchar (50)
)
select [UPUPRF], [UPTEXT] from tblHIS into tmpTable
GO
And something dealing with the below code as well.
@tmpString = RTRIM(LTRIM(@tmpString))
If charindex(@tmpString, ",") > 0
--'Manuel, Michael J - 78672 - SR MIS SUPPORT SPEC'
@LastName = Left(@tmpString, charindex(@tmpString, ","))
@tmpString = RTRIM(LTRIM(Right(@tmpString, Len(@tmpString) - charindex(@tmpString, ",") + 1)))
--'Michael J - 78672 - SR MIS SUPPORT SPEC'
@FirstName = Left(@tmpString, charindex(@tmpString, " "))
@tmpString = RTRIM(LTRIM(Right(@tmpString, Len(@tmpString) - charindex(@tmpString, " ") + 1)))
If charindex(@tmpString, "-") > 1
--'J - 78672 - SR MIS SUPPORT SPEC'
@MI = Left(@tmpString, 1)
@tmpSting = RTRIM(LTRIM(Right(@tmpString, Len(@tmpString) - 2)
End
--'- 78672 - SR MIS SUPPORT SPEC'
@ID = Left(@tmpString, charindex(@tmpString, " - "))
@tmpString = RTRIM(LTRIM(Right(@tmpString, Len(@tmpString) - charindex(@tmpString, " - ") + 3)))
--'SR MIS SUPPORT SPEC'
@Dept = @tmpString
End
Hope someone can point me in the right direction

I have 2 questions.
1. I have a table with a column for region names. Region Names are in 2 formats basically - "NAME-BU*RM" OR "NAME*RM".
I want to extract just "Name" from this string.
The length of "Name" varies and I want to extract all characters included for "Name".
Can anyone advise what the query/SQL statement would look like?
2. I wrote a VB code to generate a xls file. Users are able to run it fine but if they have another file with same name already open, then it just crashes excel.
So I want to include a code that checks if file "file.xls" is open on user's machine.
If file is open, then message "file "File.xls" is already open. Generating File_1.xls"
Run the code but create the file with file name "file_1.xls"
If file doesn't exist, then run code and create file with file name "File.xls"
Please advise.

Hello, I'm trying to pass a simple string value to a stored procedure and just can't seem to make it work. I'm baffled since I know how to pass an integer to a stored procedure.

I have a stored procedure called from ASP code, and when it is executed, the stored procedure takes in a date as an attribute.
But since the stored procedure call is really just a string in the code, it is taking in the value as a string. So in my stored procedure, I want to convert a string value to a date value.
Any idea how this is done?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello! This is my scenario...
Development - Visual Studio 2005
Database - MS SQL 2005
I have written a stored procedure that has a output parameter whose type is NVARCHAR(MAX). Then I use C# to wrap this stored procedure in OLEDB way. That means the OleDbType for that parameter is VarWChar.
This works fine if the string size is less than 4000. If more than 4000, the remaining part will be chopped off. The situation gets worst if I replace VarWChar with LongVarWChar. There is no error nor warning at compiling time. But there is an exception at run time.
So... Does anyone here can help me out? Thanks in advance.
Has anyone been able to find a way to use a stored procedure with a dynamic connection string?
I have a multivalued parameters populated from a dataset with country codes: US,CA,HK etc... I tried to pass the parameter to the stored procedured but that did not work. I did some research and found out that I won't be able to do that.
Writing Queries that Map to Multivalued Report Parameters
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155917.aspx
You can define a multivalued parameter for any report parameter that you create. However, if you want to pass multiple parameter values back to a query, the following requirements must be satisfied:
The data source must be SQL Server, Oracle, or Analysis Services.
The data source cannot be a stored procedure. Reporting Services does not support passing a multivalued parameter array to a stored procedure.
The query must use an IN statement to specify the parameter.
If I am not able to pass the parameter that way, what is the best way to accomplish my goal?
Thanks,
Elie
