I need to develop some crystal reports on some .NET ado datasets.
This is easy to do if I actually had data to work with. It is much
easer creating reports with you have data.
Therefore, I would like to run the stored procedure that the .NET ado
dataset is built on and generate an XML file. I could run the project
and try to figure out where the developers are making the call to the
stored procedure and insert a line to writetoxmlfile. I would rather
not have to mess with their code.
Is there a way working with SQL Server (either query analyzer or
enterprise manager, dts, or whatever) that I can generate an xml file.
I see that I can run a stored procedure and get an xml style return in
query analyzer, but I don't know how to save that as an actual file.
I need creating a store procedure which generates custom IDs for each asset. I am programming for Fixed Assets in VB6 with SQL Server 2005. For example, when a new Asset is added ,I need to auto generate the ID based on existing IDs. New ID should not exist in tblAssets table.
Table Name : tblAssets Fields : AssetID > Int,Primary Key,this is internal ID (identity seed) AssetExtID >nvarchar(50),this is external ID, need to generate/user entered.
Below is the example of data in tblAssets :
AssetID AssetExtID ProjectID ItemName Qty UOM UnitCost ..... 1 PROSP-00001 PROSPERITY SPLIT-AC 2 NOS $200 2 PROSP-00002 PROSPERITY LAPTOP 1 NOS $500 3 UNIII-00001 UNION III LAPTOP 5 NOS $400 4 UNIII-00002 UNION III RECEIVER 2 NOS $312
The AssetExtID depends on the ProjectID which is in tblProjects.
I will take care of the first 5 characters to generate. But the number part I need to generate by checking existing data. The AssetExtID should not be duplicate. Its unique for each asset.
We need to create a pdf file from SQL server preferably from a stored procedure. Application will call the stored procedure and it should generate pdf. From my research it appears it can be done using various external tools with licensing/costs. But is it possible to do this within sql server database without additional costs? I read that this can be done by SSRS in SQL server but not sure if it is a good solution and if it is additional licensing..
There is SCPTXFR.EXE script that has an option to create a script for all DB objects in one file or create separate files for each DB object - one for tables, one for SP-s, one for triggers, etc.
Is there a way to generate:
1. Separate script for each stored procedure (not from Enterprise Manager but automatically from command line or otherwise);
2. Script all DB objects excluding stored procedures in one file.
What is the easiest way to accomplish this task with SSIS?
Basically I have a stored procedure that unions multiple queries between databases. I need to be able to export this to a text file on a daily basis and add a total records: row to the end of the text file.
SET @RowCnt = 1 SET @date = CONVERT(CHAR(10),GETDATE(),110) SET @ArchPath = '\D$EDATAWorkFoldersSendSendData' SELECT @TotalRows = count(*) FROM table1 --select @ArchPath
WHILE (@RowCnt <= @TotalRows) BEGIN SELECT @AccountNumber = AccountNumber, @output_filename FROM table1 WHERE Identity_Number = @RowCnt --PRINT @AccountNumber --test SELECT @sql = N'bcp "SELECT h.HeaderText, d.RECORD FROM table2 d INNER JOIN table3 h ON d.HeaderID = h.HeaderID WHERE d.ccountNumber = ''' + @AccountNumber+'''" queryout "'+@ArchPath+ @output_filename + '.txt" -T -c' --PRINT @sql EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @sql SELECT @RowCnt = @RowCnt + 1 END
I have defined an email as a .html file on my server: /Emails/email.htmlThis file defines what the email will look like and in the text I have placed tags that need to be replaced with values.A tag that requires replacement looks like: <#SENDERNAME> or <#RECEIVERNAME>I want to replace these tags with the names of the sender and the receiver respectively.AFTER this is done the email needs to be sent to the receiver's address, let's say: receiver@yes.comI want to create a stored procedure that takes as input the sender and receivername AND receiveraddress.It then uses the file I have defined on my server, replaces the tags and sends the email.How can I do this?!
Is there a way I can use one SQL server 2005 (full edition not express) Stored procedure that can execute a .SQL file as if it were in the SQL management studio Query window? I have the situation where I have some .SQL file which were created with the 'Create to File' option in SQL Management studio. I then want to send them to a user who can execute them to create a SP on his SQL server without having to run the SQL management tools. Regards Clive
Hi.. I have a website in which the user uploads a text file to the webserver. and then i am calling a stored procedure which loads the data into the staging database using bulk copy. since my sql database and the web server are in different machines but on the same domain.. i am accessing the .txt file from the stored procedure by giving http://Ipaddress/ApplicationName/Directory/plan.txt and the format file using the same address i.e http://Ipaddress/ApplicationName/Directory/plan.fmt
But when i press ctrl + click on the text file it take me to that location but when i do the same for the format file it says the page cannot be found.. Since it cannot access the .fmt file my import doesnt work. Any help will be appreicated.. Thank you, Karen

Anyone have the code used in DTS to make a connection to Excel? Or perhaps a better idea? I need to pass different file names to a stored procedure which would upload the spreadsheet data into SQL7 on demand.
I've been administering SQL Server for quite a while, but have managed until now to stay out of the development side. I find myself finally writing some complex SProcs. What I want to do is to create a "switch", i.e., a parameter that will output a few lines of text characterizing the SProc, with such information as required & optional parameters, potential "gotchas", and a handful of examples of usage. I want this to be able to work like this:
EXEC spMySProc '?' or EXEC spMySproc 'help'
This has to work even if there are multiple required parameters.
Reading through the forums, I found some great imformation for importing/exporting an excel spreadsheet via a stored procedure, however, the amount of data I have won't fit in excel. Can someone help me export a CSV file via a stored procedure? I don't know if XML is the answer or if there is another way. I am able to use Bulk for an insert of a csv via stored procudure, although it doesn't allow me to use a variable for the file name and pass it in. We are currently using SQL Server 2000.
I have a bulk insert script. I have a stored procedure. I saved the stored procedure as a .sql file in another folder too. I have another program that can "run external program" and the only files it will run is a .bat or .exe. I want my other program to be able to trigger the stored procedure to run. I think this means I need a .bat file.
Here is my stored procedure:
USE [EricaTraining] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[LoadDailyAdjReport] Script Date: 03/29/2013 10:56:42 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
Hello everybody,I have a file with several asp functions where some depend on others.Some of the functions I will need to transform a string value.How can I include these functions in a stored procedure? (in SqlServer 2000)Do I have to add all the functions as userdefined functions?Or is possible to reference the external file like include files inasp?Thank you for your help!Regards,Michael
