How To Page SQL Query Result Returned From FOR XML Statement?

Apr 25, 2006

Gurus.
I do not know if it is possible, but here is what I want to do.
I want to allow user to page the SQL result, so he could decides to
return from row 10 to row 20, or row 100 to 200, without returns the
whole resultset. Every time he sends another request, I do not mind to
hit the database again, (I do not want to cache the result in the
middle tier server, scalability issue), and I know that I could achieve
this with CURSOR, but unfortunately the FOR XML is not allowed in a
CURSOR statement .
(I know that I could achieve what I want to do by writing custom code
in the middle tier, but I just want to see if there is a way to do this
on the database side.)

Any comments & suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

(I am using SQL2005)

One Page Report - One Result Row In SQL = One Full Page Of Data

Feb 27, 2008

Hi - I am pretty new to Reporting Services. I need to create a report where a single result row from the Select Statement populates an entire page of data. The regular grid or Matrix reports don't fit this need. Is there a simple way to do this?

Thanks - Dave

Data Returned From .WriteXML Is Different Than What Is Returned In Query Analyzer.

Jun 20, 2006

I have a strange problem. I have some code that executes a sql query. If I run the query in SQL server query analyzer, I get a set of data returned for me as expected. This is the query listed on lines 3 and 4. I just manually type it into query analyzer.
Yet when I run the same query in my code, the result set is slightly different because it is missing some data. I am confused as to what is going on here. Basically to examine the sql result set returned, I write it out to an XML file. (See line 16).
Why the data returned is different, I have no idea. Also writing it out to an XML file is the only way I can look at the data. Otherwise looking at it in the debugger is impossible, with the hundreds of tree nodes returned.
If someone is able to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it.
1. public DataSet GetMarketList(string region, string marketRegion)2. {3.   string sql = @"SELECT a.RealEstMarket FROM MarketMap a, RegionMap b " + 4."WHERE  a.RegionCode = b.RegionCode"; 5.   DataSet dsMarketList = new DataSet();6.   SqlConnection sqlConn = new SqlConnection(intranetConnStr);   7.   SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql,sqlConn);8.  sqlConn.Open();9.   SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd); 10.   try11.   {12.   adapter.Fill(dsMarketList);
 13.  String bling = adapter.SelectCommand.CommandText;//BRG 14.   dsMarketList.DataSetName="RegionMarket"; 15.  dsMarketList.Tables[0].TableName = "MarketList"; 16.    dsMarketList.WriteXml(Server.MapPath ("myXMLFile.xml" )); // The data written to  17. myXMLFile.xml is not the same data that is returned when I run the query on line 3&4 18.           // from the SQL query 19.  } 20.  catch(Exception e) 21. {  22. // Handle the exception (Code not shown)

Transact SQL :: Only 1st Result Being Returned?

Jun 10, 2015

We have multiple employees assigned to the same assignment sometimes, and my query is skewed as that if there are 2 people assigned to the ssame assigment I can only see the amt of time worked for the 1st person.  What should I do to remedy this?

Ouput I am receiving is

BadgeNum - Assignment -- FullName --TimeworkToday
A2323   ---- Accident Reconstruction ---- Football Helmet ---- .50
AB12 ---- Accident Reconstruction ---- Brown Shoe ---- Null
AB66 ----- Accident Reconstruction ---- Black Shoe ---- Null
ABB28 ---- Accident Reconstruction ---- White Shoe ---- Null

--And now here it's a new assignment so timeworktoday is populating

MC22 ---- Crime Prevention ---- Laptop Coputer ---- 1.13

Desired output is all employees have a value populate for timeworktoday

Declare
@count int,
@Assignment varchar(100),
@fullname varchar(100),
@timeworkedtoday decimal(18,2),
@badgeNum varchar(50)
Create Table #possibleemployees(ID INT IDENTITY NOT NULL, badgeNum varchar(50), workingtoday int)

Can The Result From An EXEC(@sqlcommand) Be Returned To A Variable

Apr 11, 1999

Is it possible to get the result from an EXEC(@sqlcommand) statement into a variable?

As part of a SQL loop, it is necessary for me to run an EXEC() command to process an SQL statement. I have succesfully implemented this, but have been unable to get the results from the EXEC() statement into a variable to allow this data to be inserted into a table. Is this possible?

For Example (I know this doesn't work, but it is effectively what I am trying to achieve):

select @result = EXEC(@sqlcommand)

I could then use the @result variable in an insert statement to update a table with the results from the EXEC command.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...

Regards,
Wayne

Limiting Rows Returned By Result Sets

May 20, 2008

In MySQL we use "SELECT (....) LIMIT 0, 10" to only return the first 0 to 10 records. Alternatively we could do "LIMIT 10, 20" to return the 10th to 20th records.

What's the equivilent of this in SQL Server?

Concurrency Issue In Result Returned From Stored P

All the stored procedures have been tested and appear to be fine. it's as if under load the returned data from the stored procedures is getting 'mixed' with another concurrent session.

Naming The Result Sets Returned By Stored Procedure

Jul 6, 2004

Greetings

I have a SQL Server stored procedure that performs several queries and therefore returns several "result sets" at any one time.

Wiring it up via ADO.NET I populate a DataSet with a number of items in the Tables collection - which is great - and I can give each item a name for identification purposes once the DataSet is populated.

But I'd like to know if there is some way I can set the names of each result set *within the text of the stored procedure*, i.e. before the DataSet gets populated.

Any help greatly appreciated.

How To Suppress Result Sets Returned From A Stored Procedure?

Aug 28, 2006

I have a novice question. How does one suppress result sets returned from a stored procedure?

I have created a procedure which makes use of multiple stored procedures . The purpose of this procedure (lets call it procA), is to count the rows returned from other procedures. The €œOther€? procedures will return rows having an unknown number of columns. I would like to limit any changes which may be needed to be made to the €œOther€? procs.

Once procA has collected all of the information (@@rowcount) from the inner procedures, then it will return a result set having several columns €“ mainly the subProcedure name and number of rows returned.

The purpose of procA is to query several subsystems and identify which ones need attention.

Cursor While Loop
exec @ProcName @ObjectName,@userID,@syncDate
set @recs = @@rowcount;


My c# program calls the sp as follows:

cmd = DataUtility.GetSQLCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandText = "FetchAdminData";
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@userID", userAlias);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@adminDate",userDate);
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();

I do not wish to iterate over each resultSet when I am only interested in the last one. Any suggestions?

Extending The Number Of Rows Returned Per Page In RS

Jun 7, 2007

Is there a way to extend the number of rows that will be returned so that Reporting services doesn't display such a large number of pages for the users to page through? It would be easier for them to "wheel mouse" through a long page on the screen.



Anyone out there have any thoughts on how this might be accomplished?



Thanks!

Receiving There Is An Invalid Number Of Result Bindings Returned For The ResultSetType: ResultSetType_Rowset

Sep 20, 2007



I am trying to set up an Execute SQL Task that will feed into a foreach loop for processing of data. I am using an ADO.NET Connection with Direct input with full result set. I have tried using "select * from <table>" and also "select <column1>, <column2> from <table>". I have user variables set in the package and have the table cfolumn names listed in result name and the appropriate package variable in variable name on the Result Set tab. There is a total of 53 columns per row and the number of rows that should be returned can be anywhere from none to several hundred. Upon trying to run the package, I am receiving

Anyone have any ideas here? Thanks in advance!

End Result Is Main Query Results Ordered By Nested Result

May 1, 2008

As the topic suggests I need the end results to show a list of shows and their dates ordered by date DESC.
Tables I have are structured as follows:

SHOWS
showID
showTitle

SHOWACCESS
showID
remoteID

VIDEOS
videoDate
showID

SQL is as follows:

SELECT shows.showID AS showID, shows.showTitle AS showTitle,
(SELECT MAX(videos.videoFilmDate) AS vidDate FROM videos WHERE videos.showID = shows.showID)
FROM shows, showAccess
WHERE shows.showID = showAccess.showID
AND showAccess.remoteID=21
ORDER BY vidDate DESC;

I had it ordering by showTitle and it worked fine, but I need it to order by vidDate.
Can anyone shed some light on where I am going wrong?

thanks

Get A Returned Print Statement Into Something That Can Be Evaluated...

Jan 11, 2008



We have some SQL CLR code that was written to go get information from a web service...all works great and the CLR code does what it is supposed to. The problem is, it returns its success or failure status as a string text value (equivalent of a print statement I imagine) instead of as a result set or output parameter that i can check. In the proc I wrote to call the CLR stored proc I do some cleanup that i would like to rollback if the call to the web service that the CLR proc makes fails. Problem is, how can i get there. I have tried every way that I know and I can't seem to get that text into an object (temp table, variable whatever) that i can evaluate. Anyone have any suggestions?

CASTing A Datatype Returned By CASE Statement

Apr 28, 2004

I realize that the CASE statement doesn't like different datatypes as return values but if I want to format the "0" in the second WHEN condition below to "000", how do I do that? I have a "Region" that is "000" and would like it to show up that way at the very top of my report. I have the GROUP BY and ORDER BY to work fine, it just shows up as "0" and I can't change it. I realize it is being read as an int but am having trouble with the CAST and where to place it. Thanks again, you guys are great.

Determining If A SqlCeDataReader Has Returned Data From A SELECT Statement

Sep 26, 2006

Hi all,

is there no a way to determine if a SqlCeDataReader has managed to return data (rows) from an executed SQL SELECT statement? I ask this because I have the following problem where I first need to determine if data (rows) are returned, if so, cycle through them and get the data out. But if I do the test to determine if data is returned (like I have in my code below) then the Reader.Read() is classed as reading a row, so when I do my 'while (Reader.Read())' this will then only work with data in the 2nd row.
if (Reader.Read()){ while (Reader.Read()) { //Get data from rows }}

I recall having this issue before as there doesn't seem to be a standard way of testing for data returned from a SELECT statement. I hope you can shed some light on this for me.

Thanks

Excluding Part Of Select Statement If No Data Is Returned In Results

Aug 22, 2006

I have a query that returns results based on information in several tables.  The problem I am having is that is there are no records in the one table it doesn't return any information at all.  This table may not have any information initially for the employees so I need to show results whether or not there is anything in this one table.
Here is my select statement:
  SELECT employee.emp_id, DATEDIFF(mm, employee.emp_begin_accrual, GETDATE()) * employee.emp_accrual_rate -
(SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft, employee.emp_lname + ', ' + employee.emp_fname + ' ' + employee.emp_minitial + '.' AS emp_name,
department.department_name, location.location_name
FROM employee INNER JOIN
request AS request_1 ON employee.emp_id = request_1.emp_id INNER JOIN
department ON employee.emp_department = department.department_id INNER JOIN
location ON department.department_location = location.location_id
GROUP BY employee.emp_id, employee.emp_begin_accrual, employee.emp_accrual_rate, employee.emp_fname, employee.emp_minitial,
employee.emp_lname, department.department_name, location.location_name
ORDER BY location.location_name, department.department_name, employee.emp_lname
 
The section below is the part that may or may not contain information:
  SELECT (SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft

 
So I need it to return results whether this sub query has results or not.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Using Result Of SQL Statement

Apr 21, 2008

Hi,

What I would like to do is run a select statement, and then have the result of the select be used/run thru the same select again untill it hits a certain where clause.

This is for a where used search in our BOM (Bill of Material) table.

So for example

BOM 1

level 1 Item# 123 type Finished Good
level 2 Item# 45 type subassembly
level 3 Item# 56 type purchased item


BOM 2

level 1 Item# 678 type Finished Good
level 2 Item# 78 type subassembly
level 3 Item#56 type purchased item


So my input into the select statement would be Item# 56, it will then first find Item# 45 and Item# 78, but those I am not interested in. I want the select to then take Item#45 and Item#78 and run it thru the same select so that it will find Item#123 and Item#678.

The select will know to stop there since these are flagged as "Finished Good" in our system, so they will not be in any other BOM. This is what I would imagine being specified in the "where clause".

I can write the first part, where the select will find Item #45 and Item#78, but don't know how to get past that point.

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,
Michiel

How Can I Get The Result Of A SQL PRINT Statement

Nov 5, 2003

I am using MSDE and WebMatrix. My stored procedure is creating a Dynamic SQL query and is is about 200 lines long.

I am not getting the expected results, but also not generating any errors. I inserted a Print statement to print the resultant SQL query, but I don't know how to see or display that print result.

I do NOT have SQL2000, only MSDE. I am using WebMatrix and VB.net to create my application. Is there some class in asp.net that will help me, or some free utility. One of the problems is that the dynamic SQL is using over 20 parameters to create the query; the end result of the user picking fields on the webform.

every times I execute it I get different result.

1st result : 17036986
2nd result : 17037903
3rd result : 17038309

Any idea??? There is no any inserting on TABLEA, so it should not has changes. Is that because of statistic is still updating?? I don't have much knowledge on this so I cannot sure the cause of the problem. Please advise.

Execute Same Statement For Each Value In Result Set

Jul 23, 2005

Hi everyone,My brain refuses to remember the (undocumented?) stored procedure I'mthinking of. It takes at least two parameters: a sql statement toexecute, and a table name (or something of that nature).Then, for each value in the table, it executes the sql statement andpasses the value as a parameter.Can anybody refresh my memory? The functionality may be slighlydifferent than described, but the principle is the same. Thanks verymuch...-Joe

Null Result Returned Even Though IS NOT NULL Specified.

Apr 25, 2007

Hi guys,

I've got a query on a particular table returning an odd result:

SELECT DISTINCT WorkStation
FROM Invoice
WHERE WorkStation Is Not Null
ORDER BY WorkStation

This query returns the rows I'd expect plus a null row. This doesn't happen in databases at other sites, or in other tables at this site. The following query behaves as I'd expect returning only non-null AccountNumbers.

SELECT DISTINCT AccountNumber
FROM Suppliers
WHERE AccountNumber Is Not Null
ORDER BY AccountNumber

I can't reproduce these results on another site on a table of the same structure, or on another table at this site.

Any suggestions as to what might be going on?

Pertinent info:
