Is there a way to execute multiple SQL statements within SQL Server? I'm triyng to write a sql statement that will delete from three tables. I need at least two sql statements to delete from these three tables. Can this be done?
I am not even sure if this is possible but I want to be able to excute several statements (or SPs) at once from inside a SPs (or any other method).
What I am doing is a I am taking data from a single column, multiple rows and making it into one row (i.e. data1 + data2 + data3....) But I am doing this to a total of 2.1 million individual rows and the result will be about 204k rows.... what I have written is basically a nested loop and it works fine but very slow... slow as in it has been running for 24 hours now and it is about 60% done... I need this to finish in under 36 hours preferably...
If I could handle more than one set of data at once (there will be no duplicates) I could speed up the process by how ever many I feel like working with...
So is there a way to execute a statement (sp or function) and go to the next statement without waiting for the first to finish??
Hi, I have a table containing SQl statements. I need to extract the statements and execute them through stored procedure(have any better ideas?)
Table Test
Id Description
1Insert into test(Id,Name) Values (1,'Ron') 2Update Test Set Name = 'Robert' where Id = 1 3Delete from Test where Id = 1
In my stored procedure, i want to execute the above statements in the order they were inserted into the table. Can Someone shed some light on how to execute multiple sql statements in a stored procedure. Thanks
I am seeking a syntax example for executing multiple T-SQL statements in a single stored procedure. For example, I would like to insert a new client record and immediately insert an associated household record. I don't want to have to hit the database twice to accomplish this, and I prefer not to use a trigger.
I am using query analyzer to build a database, I want to do certain command in order, that is: not to execute the next statement until the previous one has been finish execution. What is the command used for this purpose
I am looking to transfer a database to another db but I just need to copy the data (not drop the tables and recreate them). Is this possible?
I was thinking of backing up the database in a set of insert statements in a file and execute this file to get the desired result. Or alternatively, to use a data flow task with multiple tables if possible.
Hi, all I'm using Sql server 2000 I want to make select statement dynamically and return table using function. in sp, I've done this but, in function I don't know how to do so. (I have to create as function since our existing API..)
Following is my tials... 1. alter Function fnTest ( @fromTime datetime, @toTime datetime) RETURNS Table AS
RETURN Exec spTest @from, @to GO
Yes, it give syntax error..
2. So, I found the following
From Sql Server Books Online, Remark section of CREATE FUNCTION page of Transact-SQL Reference , it says following..
"The following statements are allowed in the body of a multi-statement function. Statements not in this list are not allowed in the body of a function: " ..... * EXECUTE statements calling an extended stored procedures.
So, I tried.
alter Function fnTest ( @fromTime datetime, @toTime datetime) RETURNS Table AS
RETURN Exec master..xp_msver GO
It doesn't work... syntax err...
Here I have quick question.. How to execute statements calling an extended stored procedures. any examples?
Now, I'm stuck.. how can I create dynamic select statement using function?
I am getting an exception. And i don't know whether this exception is from the C# coding or SQL SERVER."Cannot roll back InsertRxs. No transaction or savepoint of that name was found.Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates a mismatching number of BEGIN and COMMIT statements. Previous count = 0, current count = 1.A transaction that was started in a MARS batch is still active at the end of the batch. The transaction is rolled back."
I'm all of a sudden getting this error on a Stored Procedure that has not been touched since it was created.

I am writing a fairly complex data automation procedure that basically uses about 5 stored procedures and some additional sql from C# to populate a database. i would like to utilize transactions in C# and sql to help me if something goes wrong. My question is, do i have to maintain the same connection in order to have one transaction for all my Commands. right now i do things like connection.Open();Command.ExecuteNonQuery(); connection.Close(); connection.Open();Command2.ExecuteNonQuery(); connection.Close(); i think i have to keep the same connection open for the duration of all my commands in order to utilize transactions, is this correct? thanks, mcm
how can take codes below and put them into one store procedure to supplie a gridview. also i will like to define the row name on the left like i did to the column on the top using the 'AS' Code1.... SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'January' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS January, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'February' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS February, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'March' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS March, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'April' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS April, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'May' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS May, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'June' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS June, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'July' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS July, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'August' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS August, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'September' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS September, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'October' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS October, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'November' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS November, SUM(CASE WHEN Month = 'December' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS December, SUM(CASE WHEN site_descr = 'SITE1' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS AllTotal FROM dbo.V_results WHERE (site_descr = 'SITE1')

Hi guys and gals, I am trying to create a select statement that will return an INT that I will later have to use in another select statement. I have the following code, however, I keep getting an error that says: 'Error116: Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.' My Code is below: //Start of sql CREATE PROCEDURE ADMIN_GetSingleUsers( @userID int) AS DECLARE @userSQL intSET @userSQL = (SELECT User_ID, TITLE.TITLE AS TITLE, Cast(Users.Active as varchar(50)) as Active, Cast(Users.Approved as varchar(50)) as Approved, Users.Unit_ID As usersUnitID, * From TITLE, Users WHERE User_ID = @userID AND TITLE.TITLE_ID = Users.Title_ID ) Select Unit_ID, Parent_ID, Unit_Name from UNITS WHERE Unit_ID = @userSQL //End of sql Can you point to what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance!
This query brings back 2 rows for each record, one for each case statement. How can I change this to bring in the contsupp.notes for both types of data? Or could it be fixed in the joins?
select contact1.accountno, contact1.key5 as "Ch#", contact2.uexpsort as "Sort", contact1.company as "Church", contact1.contact as "Editor", contact1.phone1 as "Phone", contact2.uemerg as "Emergency", contact1.Address1 as "Address", contact1.city as "City", contact1.state as "State", contact1.zip as "Zip", contact2.ubulletnqt as "Qty", contact2.ubullcolor as "BullColor", contact2.ubarcode as "Barcode", contact2.udelivery as "Delivery", contact2.uoutputdev as "OutputDev", contact2.utimedeliv as "Time", contact2.ucolor as "DelivColor", contact2.ucollated as "Collated", contact2.ustapled as "Stapled", case when contsupp.contsupref = 'Delivery Notes' then contsupp.notes end as "Deliverynotes", case when contsupp.contsupref = 'Cover Change Slip' then contsupp.notes end as "CoverChangeSlip"
from Contact1 inner join contact2 on Contact1.Accountno = Contact2.Accountno inner join contsupp on Contact1.Accountno=Contsupp.Accountno where contact1.key5 not like '' and contsupp.contsupref='Delivery Notes' or contsupp.contsupref ='Cover Change Slip' order by contact1.key5
I have written one CTE (common table expression) and trying to use same CTE with three seperate UPDATE statements which gives me error saying "Invalid Object name" (it works fine when I try to use with 1 update statement (any one from three update statements)
Isnt it possible that I can use 1 CTE with mutiple update statements?
Does anyone know how to execute more than one MDX statement in a single report? For example, If you wanted to create a session set, run some mdx with the set included, then drop the session set. In Management studio the mdx works perfectly if you separate the individual mdx statements with GO. I tried using semicolons as mdx statement terminators and this didn't work either.
Reporting Services does something between when the report begins it's execution and the time the MDX is submitted to AS. And running a trace to see exactly what is passed in doesn't work either - the only message displayed is the same error message as what is passed back to RS. (I ran a trace with all events selected).
I'm hoping someone out there has a creative solution for my scenario. I have the report code below. I want to create a parameter that allows the user to select which where statement to use in the report. Then I want to use the corresponding where description below ( ex: @WHEREDESC1 ) in my header which will describe (in laymen's terms) which parameter was chosen and what is being reported on.
Has anyone achieved this or have an idea how it may be done?
I was wondering if it's possible to have a stored procedure that has two select statements which you can combine as a single result set. For instance:select name, age, titlefrom tableaselect name, age, titlefrom tablebCould you combine these queries into a single result set?
I am almost sure I can update variables columns in one select/case type statement, but having problems working out the syntax.
I have a table with transactions - with tran types as the key.
in this example, types = A,B,C ,D.
in this first example I am updating the sum of QTY to value t_A based on tran types =A.
can I perform sub query/case to update with the same where clause but for types B,C and D?? I also have to insert for specific lot numbers each sum values.
Create table #t_reconcile( t_lot_number int not null, t_A float, t_B float, t_C float, t_D float)
insert #t_reconcile
select t.lot_number, sum(t.qty) from i , t where i._id = t.event_id i.transaction_type = 'A' group by t.lot_number order by t.lot_number
Hi,I am wondering if anyone has any examples of how to run multiple sql statements from a file using .net? I want to automatically install any stored procedures or scripts from a single file on the server when my web application runs for the first time. Thanks for your help in advance!
I'm working on a query which involves changing the case of a field from mixed case to all lower case. The field exists in multiple tables, so to do this I have multiple update statements. Is there a way to make this more efficient?
See below for example:
update InvestBroker set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestFill set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestBrokerAccount set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestFIXBroker set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestUploadBrokerFilter set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestSettleInstructions set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
How do I enclose multiple filters in a variable, for instance how would I put the following filter into a variable and also is it actually possible or do I have to do something else before performing this type of operation:
tel1 like '072%' or tel1 like '+27 72%' or tel1 like '072-%' or tel1 like '+2772%' or tel1 like '72%' and len(tel1) > 7 or tel2 like '072%' or tel2 like '+27 72%' or tel2 like '072-%' or tel2 like '+2772%' or tel2 like '72%' and len(tel2) > 7 or tel3 like '072%' or tel3 like '+27 72%' or tel3 like '072-%' or tel3 like '+2772%' or tel3 like '72%' and len(tel3) > 7 or tel4 like '072%' or tel4 like '+27 72%' or tel4 like '072-%' or tel4 like '+2772%' or tel4 like '72%' and len(tel4) > 7 or tel5 like '072%' or tel5 like '+27 72%' or tel5 like '072-%' or tel5 like '+2772%' or tel5 like '72%' and len(tel5) > 7 or tel_other like '072%' or tel_other like '+27 72%' or tel_other like '072-%' or tel_other like '+2772%' or tel_other like '72%' and len(tel_other) > 7
the problem is that it's got a couple of apostrophes which when declaring variables pulls it out of that mode, I have looked on the internet but can't seem to find anything
I know I should know the answer to this, but I just can't quite get the syntax down
Code: Select case when zipCode = '10185' Then 'Deliver' Else when zipCode = '2309' And paid = 'Yes' Then 'Deliver' Else When zipCode = '1291' And paid = 'Yes' Then 'Deliver' Else When zipCode = '88221' And paid = 'No' Then 'Hold' Else when zipCode = '34123' Then 'Deliver' End From postalDeliveryDatabase
I believe we can you multiple statements in stored procedures?
Suppose I have a stored procedure and I pass parameters to this SP. What I am aiming for is to pass some values to the stored procedure, use a select statement to retrieve some values, then have two update statements as below. Updating the same table but with opposite values, both passed as a parameter and retrived, as given below:
Hi!I got 2 stored procedure, proc1 executes proc2,proc2 does some updates and inserts on different tables ...proc1:ALTER PROCEDUREASexecute proc2SELECT * FROM tblFoo______________________my problem is, that when executing proc1, I receive the message:"THE SP executed successfully, but did not return records!"But I need the resultset from "SELECT * FROM tblFoo" that is executedat the end of proc1.I'm not sure, but I think that I solved a similira problem with "setnocount on", I put it into both SP, but it's still the same ... noresultset ...How can I display "SELECT * FROM tblFoo" within a SP, where SQLstatements are executed before?!Thank you!
I am curious as to whether I can insert more than one IIF statement into a table's visibility expression without nesting one inside the other.
I am rather loath to do so because of the risks that subsequent developers unfamiliar with both the situation and the logic could alter one IIF and not realize that if chokes off the other.
It had been my hope to apply the IIFs such that they would act independent of one another in a sort-of 'OR' statement whereby if one resulted in the table's hidden property being 'True' then it would not matter if the other's was true or false, etc.
So I'm thinking if I can have multiple statements within the CASE-THEN..or do I have to CASE out each individually? Kind of like this....
CASE WHEN [AddressType] = 'M' THEN [MailingAddress].[Address1] [MailingAddress].[Address2] [MailingAddress].[City] [MailingAddress].[State] [MailingAddress].[Zipcode] WHEN [AddressType] = 'D' THEN [DefaultAddress].[Address1] [DefaultAddress].[Address2] [DefaultAddress].[City] [DefaultAddress].[State] [DefaultAddress].[Zipcode]
Hi,We are discussing possible implementation for sql2005 database(s). This database will serve one web portal. Part of data will get into it by hand, and part will be replicated from internal system.Some of us are for creating two separate databases, since there are two separate datasources. One, automatic, will change very little over time and requires almost no maintenance. Other datasource will be manual input. Tables and procedures related to this part will change over time.Some of us are for creating single database, since it will serve one web site. More important this group is concerned about performance issues since almost every select will require join between tables that would be stored in two separate databases. Do these issues exist? Can you share some insights, comments, links about this?
