Hi all,
Seems like a fundamental question to me but I dont have a definite
answer for it, Gurus please enlighten me.
I have a table 'Table1' whose structure changes dynamically based on
some configuration values from another table. This table is being used
by a program, It was initially used by this program which ran as a
single task (executing at only a specific interval) but now the program
has to be run mutiple times some coinciding with each othe - which
meant that table structure will change as 2 programs are running
simultaneously... and therefore I have decided to use seperate table
names that each has a structure of its now.
I use this table name 'Table1' in about 10-15 stored procedures and
UDF's
to make the long story short: Since I will not know which table I will
be using in the program I want to pass the table name as an argument to
the SP and UDF's and then access this param in the
'select's/updates/inserts' - but this doesn't work unless I use Dynamic
SQL.
Is there any other way of passing table names as parameters and then
using then in the procs?
I am designing a package to export staging tables into a flat file.The names of the tables will be: TableAStaging_YYYYMM and TableBStaging_YYYYMM. As you can see the names of the tables will be changing each month.
The flat files will have similar naming: C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM and C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM.I want to run the package as an sql job in two steps, one for each table.I need to dynamically pass the table names and file names (together with the path) to the IS package.
I am using SQL2005 and would like to know if it is possible to pass a table name as an input parameter in a stored procedure?? I am struggling to get it to work.
For example:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.StartBlock
@TableName varchar(30),
@minX float OUTPUT,
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SET @minX = (SELECT min(X) as mX
FROM @TableName);
END
GO
The above does not work and give the following error
Im just wondering... is there any way to have dynamic table names, so that, say for instance, i have 4 stored procedures, that all do the same thing, just to four different tables. is there any way to have 1 stored procedure, and pass through the table name???
Adding the four statements into one statement is not an option, as i only need to execute one at a time..., not all four at once...
Dear Techies,I making one stored procedure, which does some operation based on aninterface hash (#) table ---- name #mydata.This stored has two section of code (seperated by parameter value 0and 1)But hash table #mydata (same name) number/name of columns changes asper call 0 or 1.e.g.when call for 0, ----> Pass 2 columns as company_cd and section_cd ininterface hash (#) table ---- name #mydata.when call for 1, ----> Pass 3 columns as Section_cd, line_cd andsubline_cd in interface hash (#) table ---- name #mydata.As a result, none of the case (0 or 1) is running properly, It givesproblem.When I execute procedure for 0 by passing #mydata with two columns---> it gives problem in 1 section codeAnd When I execute procedure for 1 by passing #mydata with threecolumns ---> it gives problem in 0 section codePlease suggest !!! If anybody have faced the same problem or have anyidea about this case.(I think passing hash table with 3 column as col1,col2,col3 can servethe purpose, but this may cause rework in my case, so looking foralternate solution)Thanks in Advance,T.S.Negi
I would like to use variables to set the table name and some column names of a SQL Query in a stored procedure (the variable values will come from a webpage)... something like this:ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SelectWorkHours @DayName varchar,@DayIDName varchar AS BEGINSELECT @DayName.InTime1, @DayName.OutTime1, @DayName.InTime2, @DayName.OutTime2 FROM @DayName INNER JOINWorkHours ON @DayName.@DayIDName = @DayName.@DayIDName INNER JOINEmployees ON WorkHours.WorkHoursID = Employees.WorkHoursID END RETURN ...is this possible?? if so how? Thanks
I need to create a Stored Procedure in SQL server which passes 6 input parameters Eg:
ALTER procedure [dbo].[sp_extract_Missing_Price] @DisplayStart datetime, @yearStart datetime, @quarterStart datetime, @monthStart datetime, @index int as
Once I declare the attributes I need to create a Temp table and update the data in it. Creating temp table
Once I have created the Temp table following query I need to run
SELECT date FROM #tempTable WHERE #temp.date NOT IN (SELECT date FROM mytable WHERE mytable.date IN (list-of-input-attributes) and index = @index)
The above query might return null result or a date .
In case null return output as "DataNotMissing" In case not null return date and string as "Datamissing"
I have a temporary table with multiple records and a Stored Procedure requiring a value. In a Stored Procedure, I want to loop through records in the table and use the value from each record read as input to another Stored Procedure. How do I do this?
On SQL 2012 (64bit) I have a CLR stored procedure that calls another, T-SQL stored procedure.
The CLR procedure passes a sizeable amount of data via a user defined table type resp.table values parameter. It passes about 12,000 rows with 3 columns each.
For some reason the call of the procedure is verz very slow. I mean just the call, not the procedure.
I changed the procdure to do nothing (return 1 in first line).
So with all parameters set from
command.ExecuteNonQuery()to create proc usp_Proc1 @myTable myTable read only begin return 1 end
it takes 8 seconds.I measured all other steps (creating the data table in CLR, creating the SQL Param, adding it to the command, executing the stored procedure) and all of them work fine and very fast.
When I trace the procedure call in SQL Profiler I get a line like this for each line of the data table (12,000)
SP:StmtCompleted -- Encrypted Text.
As I said, not the procedure or the creation of the data table takes so long, really only the passing of the data table to the procedure.
Hi, i need to insert a record 1 or more times, depending of a variable in code-behind:dim amount as integeramount= value (e.g. 3) My problem is: how to pass that variable to the stored procedure?I tried with this but nothing happens: comd.Parameters.Add("@amount", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 10).Value = amount_of_details Maybe is my stored procedure wrong? Thanks T. Here is it:---------- ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.insert_table (@field1 nvarchar(10),...)ASDeclare @iLoopNumber intDeclare @amount intBEGIN TRAN SET @iLoopNumber = 1 SET @amountr While (@iLoopNumber <= @amount) BEGIN INSERT INTO table(field1,...) VALUES (....)) SET @iLoopNumber = @iLoopNumber +1 End COMMIT TRAN
Hi I have an if clause in my code to add the final parameter value to send to the database. If Page.User.IsInRole("MICMS") Then cmdCheckUser.Parameters.Add("@C_ID", 0) Else cmdCheckUser.Parameters.Add("@C_ID", Session("C_ID")) End If
If the user is in the role, the error is triggered saying that @C_ID is expected by the stored procedure. If i then change the value from 0 to 10, the stored procedure works fine.Is there any reason that the stored procedure is failing when the value 0 is used and not when any other value is used?Thanking you in advance.
hi,i am passing a xml file name to the stored procedure. the SP parses the file. but it is giving the error' INVALID AT THE TOP LEVEL OF THE DOCUMENT 'I expect this because of + and - in the xml file bafore the parent tags.how can i do the parser to eliminate these.
I have a two dimensional array in Front end (As for example Array contains 20 ECode and EmployeeName). I have a Stored Proc. where i have written a statement for inserting theses value in a table. so how i will pass this array to SP. Pls. give exmp. for Front end and SP also.
Hello,I read an article on how to use Yahoos API to GeoCode addresses. Basedon the article I created a stored procedure that is used as follows:SPGeocode '2121 15st north' ,'arlington' ,'va' ,'warehouse-test'Returns:Latitude Longitude GeoCodedCity GeoCodedState GeoCodedCountryPrecision Warning----------- ---------- ------------- ------------- ------------------------------ --------38.889538 -77.08461 ARLINGTON VA USPrecision Good No ErrorIt returns Latitude and Longitude and other information. Works great.In conjunction with Haversine formula, I can compute the distancebetween two locations if I know the Lat and Long of the two points.This can start to answer questions like "How many students do we havewithin a 10 mile radius of Location X?"(Marketing should go nuts over this :)My question is how can i use my data from a table and pass it to theSPGeocode via a select statement?The table I would use is:CREATE TABLE "dbo"."D_BI_Student"("STUDENT_ADDRESS1" VARCHAR(50) NULL,"STUDENT_ADDRESS2" VARCHAR(50) NULL,"STUDENT_CITY" VARCHAR(50) NULL,"STUDENT_STATE" VARCHAR(10) NULL,"STUDENT_ZIP" VARCHAR(10) NULL);This is so new to me, I am not even sure what to search.TIARob
Public Shared Sub My_UpdateCountsManaged( ByRef paramInOut As Integer)
'here I perform update statement using "paramInOut" passed form calling code
.......
'then I return value to the calling code
paramInOut = 555
End Sub
End Class
Calling code specifies a parameter like this:
Code Snippet
Dim param as Sqlparameter = New SqlParameter("@paramInOut", SqlDbType.Int)
param.Direction = ParameterDirection.InputOutput
param.Value = 999
cmd.Parameters.Add(param)
When I execute the code, it surely gets back "555" from SP, the problem is that SP never gets "999" from calling code despite ParamDirection is InputOutput. It always receives 0. I am afraid I don't understand something fundamental ?
Hi, I want to pass an xml file to stored procedure in SQL Server 2000 as a parameter. Can we pass the xml file path as a parameter? if not then how can it be done. I want to serialize data to XML and then pass it to a procedure to insert data.
if (conn != null) conn.Close(); return xmlDoc.InnerXml; }
I'm assuming this is because my Date is in the wrong format when .NET passes it. I've tested the stored procedure directly in SQL Server Managent Studio and it works (Format of date is '5/15/2008 9:16:23 PM').
In the snippet below, ExecuteSqlString is a stored procedure that accepts one parameter. SelectChangeDropdownRowsource is a function in my code behind page that generates the string I want to pass. I can't seem to find the correct syntax to get it to work. The way it is show below, the error comes back about incorrect syntax near ')' . Is this doable? <asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChangeInfo" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:xxx %>" DataSourceMode="DataReader" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:xxx %>" SelectCommandType=StoredProcedure SelectCommand="ExecuteSqlString"> <selectparameters> <asp:parameter name="sqlString" Type=String DefaultValue=SelectChangeDropdownRowsource()/> </selectparameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>
I am trying to inject dynamically generated text into a Sql2000 stored procedure. What am I doing wrong?A code behind routine generates the following string value based on a visitor entering 'sail boats' in TextBox1. The routine splits the entry and creates the below string.Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%sail%' AND Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%boats%' I am trying to place this string result in the WHERE statement of a Sql2000 Stored Procedure using parameter @VisitorKeywords. PROCEDURE dbo.KWsearchAS SELECT DISTINCT Companies.L_Name, Companies.L_ID, Companies.L_EnabledWHERE ( @visitorKeywords ) AND (Companies.L_Enabled = 1)ORDER BY Companies.L_Name I am wanting the resulting WHERE portion to be: WHERE ( Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%sail%' AND Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%boats%' ) AND (Companies.L_Enabled = 1) Thank you

I have stored procedure that expects 2 input parameters (@UserID uniqidentifier and @TeamID int). My datasource is SQLDataSource. So i need to pass parameters to SP..When i add parameters ans execute i got an error "....stored procedure expects @TeamId parameter, which was not supplied" But i pass them. How should i pass parameters? Maybe the reason is some mismatching of parametrs. 1 Parameter [] param = new Parameter[2]; 2 3 param[0] = new Parameter(); 4 param[0].Name = "@TeamID"; 5 param[0].Type = TypeCode.Int32; 6 param[0].Direction = ParameterDirection.Input; 7 param[0].DefaultValue = "1"; 8 9 param[1] = new Parameter(); 10 param[1].Name = "@UserID"; 11 param[1].Direction = ParameterDirection.Input; 12 param[1].DefaultValue = "edf26fd8-d7cd-4b32-a18a-fc888cac63ef"; 13 param[1].Type = TypeCode.String; 14 15 dataSource = new SqlDataSource(); 16 dataSource.ID = "Source"; 17 dataSource.ConnectionString = settings.ToString(); 18 19 dataSource.SelectCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedure; 20 dataSource.DataSourceMode = SqlDataSourceMode.DataReader; 21 dataSource.SelectCommand = "dbo.GetAprfAssessmentTeamData"; 22 23 24 dataSource.SelectParameters.Add(param[0]); 25 dataSource.SelectParameters.Add(param[1]); 26
Hi, I want to create a stored procedure which I can pass multi parameters. This is what I need, I have a gridview which is used for displaying customer info of each agent. However, the number of customers for each agent is different. I will pass customer names as parameters for my stored procedure. Here is a sample, CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[display_customer] @agentID varchar(20), @customer1 varchar(20), @customer2 varchar(20), ..... -- Here I do know how many customers for each agent AS SELECT name, city, state, zip FROM rep_customer WHERE agent = @agentID and (name = @customer1 or name = @customer2) Since I can not decide the number of customers for each agent, my question is, can I dynamically pass number of parameters to my above stored procedure? Thanks a lot!

Either method is in the “ASPX� file This is a DataSource for a “DetailsView� which has on top of “DeleteCommand� an “InsertCommand� a “SelectCommand� and an “UpdateCommand�. It is related to a GridView and the “@DonationRecID� comes from this GridView. Method 1. Using an SQL Query – this works fine <asp:SqlDataSource ID="donationDataSource" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:FUND %>" DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [Donations] WHERE [DonationRecID] = @DonationRecID"> Method 2. – using a stored procedure – this bombs because I have no clue as to how to pass “@DonationRecID� to the stored procedure "Donations_Delete". <asp:SqlDataSource ID="donationDataSource" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:FUND %>" DeleteCommand="Donations_Delete" DeleteCommandType="StoredProcedure"> How do I pass “@DonationRecID� to the "Donations_Delete" stored procedure? Does anyone have an example of how I can do this in the “ASPX.CS� file instead.
