I have multiple locations that I want to create views for eachindividual location.I am using a cursor to create the views for each location. So, thecursor grabs site #1 then <should> create view_site_#1, then grab site#2 and <should> create view_site_#2.For some reason it doesn't like the view name with the @site in it.Any ideas of how to get this done?Here's the cursor...declare @site varchar(5)declare c_site cursor forselect station from VHAISLCAUDIA.VISN_SITEorder by stationopen c_sitefetch from c_siteinto @sitewhile (@@fetch_status = 0)beginCREATE VIEW Site_All_Data_+ @siteASSELECT *FROM dbo.[600_All_Suggested_Data]WHERE (Site = @site)Print 'View for ' + @site + ' Created'fetch next from c_site into @siteendclose c_sitedeallocate c_sitereturnend
I have a partitioned view defined by a UNTION ALL of member tables. I can update the member tables through the view without any problem. However, when I declare a cursor on this partitioned view and try to update the view using WHERE CURRENT OF, I get an error saying 'The target object type is not updatable through a cursor'. Does anyone know if it's the case that updating a partitioned view through cursor is not supported in SQL Server 2000?
Could someone help me by answering the questions below?What's a cursor?What's difference between Query and View?Is a RecordSet just part of a table? Can it be part of a query of view?If the content in a table changed, is it necessary for a old recordset torenew itself by do "Requery()"?Thanks for your help!
I created an updateable partioned view of a very large table. Now I get an error when I attempt to declare a CURSOR that SELECTs from the view, and a FOR UPDATE argument is in the declaration.
There error generated is:
Server: Msg 16957, Level 16, State 4, Line 3
FOR UPDATE cannot be specified on a READ ONLY cursor
Here is the cursor declaration:
declare some_cursor CURSOR
for
select *
from part_view
FOR UPDATE
Any ideas, guys? Thanks in advance for knocking your head against this one.
PS: Since I tested the updateability of the view there are no issues with primary keys, uniqueness, or indexes missing. Also, unfortunately, the dreaded cursor is requried, so set based alternatives are not an option - it's from within Peoplesoft.
STATIC Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications
It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a questions regarding that
Static Cursor declare ll cursor global static for select name, salary from ag open ll fetch from ll
while @@FETCH_STATUS=0 fetch from ll update ag set salary=200 where 1=1
close ll deallocate ll
In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.
Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin

I having a difficult time here trying to figure out what to do here.I need a way to scroll through a recordset and display the resultswith both forward and backward movement on a web page(PHP usingADO/COM)..I know that if I use a client side cursor all the records get shovedto the client everytime that stored procedure is executed..if thisdatabase grows big wont that be an issue?..I know that I can set up a server side cursor that will only send therecord I need to the front end but..Ive been reading around and a lot of people have been saying never touse a server side cursor because of peformance issues.So i guess im weighing network performance needs with the client sidecursor vs server performance with the server side cursor..I am reallyconfused..which one should I use?-Jim
I am looking to create a constraint on a table that allows multiplenulls but all non-nulls must be unique.I found the following scripthttp://www.windowsitpro.com/Files/0.../Listing_01.txtthat works fine, but the following lineCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idx1 ON v_multinulls(a)appears to use indexed views. I have run this on a version of SQLStandard edition and this line works fine. I was of the understandingthat you could only create indexed views on SQL Enterprise Edition?
Write a CREATE VIEW statement that defines a view named Invoice Basic that returns three columns: VendorName, InvoiceNumber, and InvoiceTotal. Then, write a SELECT statement that returns all of the columns in the view, sorted by VendorName, where the first letter of the vendor name is N, O, or P.
This is what I have so far,
CREATE VIEW InvoiceBasic AS SELECT VendorName, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceTotal From Vendors JOIN Invoices ON Vendors.VendorID = Invoices.VendorID
I created a query, which makes use of a temp table, and I need the results to be displayed in a View. Unfortunately, Views do not support temp tables, as far as I know, so I put my code in a stored procedure, with the hope I could call it from a View....
I compared view query plan with query plan if I run the same statementfrom view definition and get different results. View plan is moreexpensive and runs longer. View contains 4 inner joins, statisticsupdated for all tables. Any ideas?
I had given one of our developers create view permissions, but he wants to also modify views that are not owned by him, they are owned by dbo.
I ran a profiler trace and determined that when he tries to modify a view using query designer in SQLem or right clicks in SQLem on the view and goes to properties, it is performing a ALTER VIEW. It does the same for dbo in a trace (an ALTER View). He gets a call failed and a permission error that he doesn't have create view permissions, object is owned by dbo, using both methods.
If it is doing an alter view how can I set permissions for that and why does it give a create view error when its really doing an alter view? Very confusing.

I was looking through our vendors views, searching for something Ineeded for our Datawarehouse and I came across something I do notunderstand: I found a view that lists data when I use it in t-sql,however when I try to use the statement when I modified the view (viaMS SQL Server Management Studio) I can not execute the statement.

I hope this is the appropriate forum for this question, if not then I apologize. I've got a SQL Server 2000 stored procedure that returns data to be used in a crystal report in Visual Studio 2005. Most of the stored procedure works well, but there is a point where I need to calculate an average number of days been a group of date pairs. I'm not familiar with cursors, but I think that I will need to use one to achieve the result I am looking for so I came up with the code below which is a snippet from my stored procedure. In this part of the code, the sp looks at the temporary table #lmreport (which holds all of the data that is returned at the end to crystal) and for every row in the table where the terrid is 'T' (the territory is domestic), it selects all of those territories from the territory table and loops through them to determine the date averages (by calling a nested stored procedure, also included below) for each territory and then updates #lmreport with that data. When I try to run the stored procedure, I get "The column prefix '#lmreport' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query." on the line indicated. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong or if this will even work the way I need it to? Thank you in advance.

Hello: I am trying to define a cursor as follows: DECLARE EmployeeList CURSOR FOR dbo.GetRecord(@EmployeeID,@CurrentDate)Can't I use a UDF in the CURSOR FOR ?Help please.thank you.
Hello, I'm trying to construct a cursor that will sequentually increment a number and then update a column with the incremented number. My propblem is that all the rows in the table are being updated with the base number +1. So all rows are updated with 278301. BUT, what I really want is for only the items with adrscode of 'bill to' to be given an incremented number. For example, if there are only five rows of 100 with an adrscode = 'bill to' then only five rows will be updated and the value of the custnmbr should be, 278301, 278302, 278303 ..... I could really use some help with this cursor: Declare @CustomerName as char (60), @seqno as int, @BaseSeqno as intset @Baseseqno = 278300 declare c cursor for select custnmbr from NXOFcustomers Where adrscode = 'BILL TO' order by custnmbropen cfetch next from c into @CustomerNamewhile @@fetch_status=0begin set @seqno = @BaseSeqno + 1 update NXOFcustomers set custnmbr = @seqnoWhere custnmbr = @CustomerName fetch next from c into @CustomerNameend close cdeallocate c

I need to have atleast three records. But if random value starts the cursor at the end, the cursor would not wrap to the beginning.
Is there a way to wrap the cursor to begining if its status is not zero.
I am sure I am not the first one ask this. I have got two tables, what I would like to do now is to update the second table using the values in the first table where T1.id = T2.id, normally I have to use cursor to loop through table two to achieve this. But is it possible to do this without using cursor?
Table 1 has numerous resume's for each person. Each resume has a unique id. ie: Table 1 res_id fname lname userid pwd address city state etc... 100 John Doe jd ok xxxx xxxx xx xxxx 104 Sally May sm sm ccccc cc c cc ccc 643 John Doe jd ok ssss null null 1003 John Doe jd ok 123 elm Nome AK ... 5000 Tom Cat tc tc null null null
I need to insert into Table 2 only the demographic information for each person appearing in Table 1. The catch is that Table 2 doesn't have the same unique id that appears in Table 1. userid and pwd are unique to Table 2 but are numerous in Table 1.
Table 2 new_ident userid pwd address city state etc.. 10 jd ok 123 elm Nome AK .... 11 Sally May sm sm ccccc cc c cc ccc 12 Tom Cat tc tc null null null
Basically I need to choose the most current "max(res_id)" occurance for John Doe above to get only one row out of his three rows. Then I need to get all the other unique rows from table 1.
I hope that is clear. I was considering a cursor. Any ideas??
Is using cursor the only way to do update in this case. I'm updating TableA.ID with TableB.New_id where TableA.ID = TableB.ID. TableA has 2.5 million records and TableB has 500,000 records. Doing it this way bring the system down to it's knees, and is taking forever. Any suggestion are welcome.

I am writing an application for a training facility. I have three tables in particular that I'm concerned with.
Here they are with the relevent keys 1. Registrations - contains a customerid and a classid 2. Sessions - contains a classid (multiple sessions can exist for a class) 3. Attendence - contains a session and a customerid.
Whenever I insert a session record for a class, I want to automatically create a corresponding record in the attendence table for every student in the class . My only thought is to create an insert trigger on the session table than creates creates a cursor containing the customerid for every student registered in the class. Then I can walk through the cursor and insert an Attendence record for each student.
I really don't want to use a cursor if I can help it, but I can't think of a way to write an single INSERT statement to put into my trigger. Is there a way to do this without using a cursor?
