Good day!
What is the syntax on calling a function from a column formula in an MS SQL table.
I created a table, one column's value will be coming from a function. And at the same time, I will pass parameters to the function. How do I do this? Is this correct?
SELECT dbo.FunctionName([Parameter1, Parameter2])
But i can't save the table, "Error validating the formula".
Pls. help
Thanks a lot.
I am trying to figure out how to set the Description of a Column in my database table by making a SQL function call. I know that I can go into Microsoft Studio Express and type in each desciption for each column. I just have about 1000 variables and each variable's description is in an Excel spreadsheet. I want to be able to build SQL code that will set each of the 1000 variables own description.
Thanks for any help.

I would like create in a table (A) a column with a formula's data.
In this formula I would like implement 2 fields from a Table (B)
So the formula can be :
[TABLE_B].[FIELD1] + [TABLE_B].[FIELD2]
Is it possible?
We can call 2 fields from a other table?
Thank you

Here is the scenario:
I have a table "tb1" with (project_id, month_end_date, monthly_proj_cost ) and table "tb2" with (project_id, key_member_type, key_member, start_dt_active, end_dt_active).
I would like to extract Key_member where key_member_type="PM" and active as of tb1(month_end_date).
Is this possible using DAX ?

I have a table called test with 4 fields namley studentname, Mark1, Mark2, total (formula column).
Created table test in the following structure,
create table test (studentname varchar(50), Mark1 numeric, Mark2 numeric, total as ([Mark1]+[Mark2]))
Now I need to drop formula nature of this column total and assign default value '0'. I like to know how to do it using T-Sql script.
Thanks for your help in advance.
This function computes the great circle distance in Kilometers using the Haversine formula distance calculation.
If you want it in miles, change the average radius of Earth to miles in the function.
create function dbo.F_GREAT_CIRCLE_DISTANCE
(
@Latitude1 float,
@Longitude1 float,
@Latitude2 float,
@Longitude2 float
)
returns float
as

*/
begin
declare @radius float
declare @lon1 float
declare @lon2 float
declare @lat1 float
declare @lat2 float
declare @a float
declare @distance float
-- Sets average radius of Earth in Kilometers
set @radius = 6371.0E
-- Convert degrees to radians
set @lon1 = radians( @Longitude1 )
set @lon2 = radians( @Longitude2 )
set @lat1 = radians( @Latitude1 )
set @lat2 = radians( @Latitude2 )
set @a = sqrt(square(sin((@lat2-@lat1)/2.0E)) +
(cos(@lat1) * cos(@lat2) * square(sin((@lon2-@lon1)/2.0E))) )
set @distance =
@radius * ( 2.0E *asin(case when 1.0E < @a then 1.0E else @a end ))
return @distance
end
Edit: corrected spelling

I want to write function to call another function which name isparameter to first function. Other parameters should be passed tocalled function.If I call it function('f1',10) it should call f1(10). If I call itfunction('f2',5) it should call f2(5).So far i tried something likeCREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[func] (@f varchar(50),@m money)RETURNS varchar(50) ASBEGINreturn(select 'dbo.'+@f+'('+convert(varchar(50),@m)+')')ENDWhen I call it select dbo.formuła('f_test',1000) it returns'select f_test(1000)', but not value of f_test(1000).What's wrong?Mariusz

I have downloaded the SQL Server Books online and found the section on Computed columns. In my small banking program I have columns named Deposit/Withdrawel and Balance. If I am reading this right I need to set the Computed Column Specification of my Balance Column in order to perform the calculation. My problem now is that I have no idea how to word the formula and other than telling me what a formula is the SQL Server Books online is no help whatsoever, so any help would be awesome.
If i've misunderstood what I am meant to do somebody please please tell me. Thanks
I am trying to do the following.
While inserting a record into a table I need one field to be created based on a stored procedure output.The stored procedure will create something like this, "XX-mm-yyyy-incremental number which resets to zero at the end of every month". All other field except the Identity field and the above mentioned storeproc generated field will be inputted manually. How can I do this?
Thanks
Hope my question is clear enough.
Is it possible to retrieve the formula associated with a computed column using t-SQL? I can use COLUMNPROPERTY( id, column, 'IsComputed') to find the computed columns, but how do I get the formula itself?
Thanks,
Mable
I'm trying to write a query that will display the formula for a computed column in SQL Server 2008R2.
I have looked here: [URL] ....
and it say (at least I think) that I can look at the Formula property of COLUMNPROPERTY like this:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME ,
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsComputed'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'Formula'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsDeterministic')
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Event' AND COLUMN_NAME = 'CurrentAttendance'
I know the column is computed and I can see the formula in SSMS. I wanted to do this in T-SQL. How to get this value?
I want to create a computed column with this formula:
ISNULL(NULLIF (tot_mnc, 0) / NULLIF (repl_value, 0), 0)
It works in a straight select query, but when I put it in the formula of the table design window, I get an error "Error validating the formula for column 'test_fci'"
I don't know if it's relevant but repl_value is itself a computed column with the formula:
(repl_value_e_g + repl_value_aux)
Is it possible to use the system functions in a computed column? If not, how would I pass those values into a udf and use it for the formula?
Thanks.
I'm trying to replicate client data from multiple databases into a single table. So database A, B and C replicate client data to a table in database Z. There is a settings table on A, B and C that holds the businessID and I use a function in a computed column to add this to the client table. At the moment I have just database A and Z as a test and what happens is the computed column gets replicated as a computed column with the formula.
Can I change this so that I can replicate the computed value (at db A,B,C) of this column?
I don't really want to add a businessID to the table if possible as I'm going to need to add a number of other tables to this replication which will each need to have the businessID, a computed column would be much easier and save updating a load of scripts.
If the above is not possible is there some other solution available so I can identify which database the records came from in the table on database Z?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,I'm sure this is a common problem.. to create a single field from awhole column, where each row would be separated by a comma.I can do this for a specified table, and column.. and I've created afunction using VBA to achieve a more dynamic (and very slow) solution..so I would like to implement it using a user defined function in sql server.The problems I'm facing are, that I can't use dynamic sql in afunction.. and I also can't use temporary tables which could build up a'standard' table from parameters given to then perform the function on.So, with these limitations, what other options do I have?Cheers,Chris

Can someone help me to understand a stored procedure I am learning about? At line 12 below, the code is calling a function named"ttg_sfGroupsByPartyId" I ran the function manually and it returns several rows/records from the query. So I am wondering? does a call to the function return a temporary table? And if so, is the temporary table named PartyId? If so, the logic seems strange to me because earlier they are using the name PartyId as a variable name that is passed in.
1 ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetPortalSettings]2 (3 @PartyId uniqueidentifier,45 AS6 SET NOCOUNT ON7 CREATE TABLE #Groups8 (PartyId uniqueidentifier)910 /* Cache list of groups user belongs in */11 INSERT INTO #Groups (PartyId)12 SELECT PartyId FROM ttg_sfGroupsByPartyId(@PartyId)
I made an SQL function in MSSQL2000. This is a function that get's a calculated heat emission. When I run the Query in MSSQL2000 the function works. It calculates every emission for every row. When I call this SQL function in VS2005, it says it does not recognize the function. Does anyone know what this may cause? thank you. For the people who are bored, I added the SQL statement. The error is at the function
SELECT TOP 15 tbProducts.prod_code, tbProductProperties.prop_height, tbProductProperties.prop_length, tbProductProperties.prop_type, tbProductProperties.prop_default_emission, tbProductProperties.prop_weight, tbProductProperties.prop_water_volume, tbProductProperties.prop_n_value, GetHeatEmission(50,70,20,[prop_default_emission],[prop_n_value]) AS customEmission FROM tbProductClassification INNER JOIN tbProducts ON tbProductClassification.clprod_fk_prod_id = tbProducts.prod_id INNER JOIN tbProductProperties ON tbProducts.prod_id = tbProductProperties.prop_fk_prod_id WHERE (tbProductClassification.clprod_fk_class_id = 3327) AND (prop_height >= '030') AND (prop_height = '060') AND (prop_length

Hi,
I want to write one function like that
dbo.function( number , 1 , 2 ) ,
but I would like to overload, and send char or number
dbo.function( number, 'abx' , ' xpto' ).
I would like to keep the same name, Can I do this? or Do I need to write to differents functions
thanks,
I have a procedure which has query
like Query 1.
Query 1
Select Clinetid
from clinet
inner join {
select centerid from GetChildCenter(@Centerid)
union
select centerid from getParentCenter(@Centerid)
} as Center c
on c.Centerid = client.Centerid
Query 2
declare @Center table ( centerid int)
insert into @Center
select centerid from getchildCenter(@Centerid) union all select centerid from getparentcenter(@Centerid)
Select Clinetid
from clinet
inner join @Center c on c.Centerid = client.Centerid
I just want to know which one is better performance wise..
because there is millions of rows for table center which is used by function getChildCenter() and GetparentCenter()
