IF Statement In View Definition
Apr 7, 1999
We are trying to create a view that references lengths in both metres and feet.
What we want to do is to create a baselength column which either holds the value of the metres column or calculates the metric value of the feet column if there is no value in the metric column.
We can do all the maths for the calculations etc, it is just putting the IF statement into the view to test the values that we are struggling with.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

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'm using the following to get table/column names:
select so.name, sc.name
from sysobjects so, syscolumns sc
where so.id = sc.id
and so.type = 'U'
order by so.name, sc.colid
What is the equivalent for views?
Thanks

I want to create a view on the table "workorder" that contains a serial id "woid". Another table, "wo_comment" contains multiple comments for each "woid".
I would like to create a view view_workorder with a column "allcomments" that is basically a concatenation of all the comments within the table "comment".
Table: workorder has columns: woid, startdate (plus many others)
Table: wo_comment has columns: woid, comment, sequence
Desired View: view_workorder has columns: woid, startdate, allcomments
I tried to create a view as follows but get errors concerning the "CURSOR" statement making me wonder if I can use declarations and CURSORS within a view?
create view [workorder_view] as (
Select
w.woid,
w.startdate,
cast( DECLARE @all_comments nvarchar(4000),
@curr_comment nvarchar(256)
DECLARE wo_comment_cur CURSOR
FOR
SELECT woc.Comments
FROM WO_Comment as woc
WHERE woc.woid = w.woid
OPEN wo_comment_cur
FETCH NEXT FROM wo_comment_cur INTO
@curr_comment
WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0)
BEGIN
Set @all_comments = @all_comments + @curr_comment
FETCH NEXT FROM wo_comment_cur INTO
@curr_comment
END
CLOSE wo_comment_cur;
DEALLOCATE wo_comment_cur;
as nvarchar(80000)) as COMMENTS
from workorder AS w
Thanks for any help you can provide!

I want to create a login with some restriction like the following...
1.I will create a login and ll mapped to a particular DB with the Database Role 'db_datarerader' only,
2.We wants to display the all objects under a DB but we don't want to provide the View Definition to that particular Login.
3.If we Deny the View definition option he can't able to see the Objects which are there under the DB.
4.So My Clear Question is we want to display the Object like tables ,Sps...etc and we don't want to allow him to view the definition of those objects....

I'd like to find out whether or not people grant VIEW DEFINITION to their developers in UAT and PROD environments. My view is that a developer shouldn't be able to touch a PROD environment at all (we also include UAT as PROD), and any issue in a production environment should be investigated by a DBA and escalated to the dev if necessary.

Hi,
When I am trying to create an indexed view using group and COUNT(*), it gave me the following error:
€œMsg 10136, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot create index on view "AdventureWorks.Sales.vOrders" because it uses the aggregate COUNT. Use COUNT_BIG instead.€?
When I refered the SQL Books Online, I found the following statement: €œIf GROUP BY is present, the VIEW definition must contain COUNT_BIG(*) and must not contain HAVING€?.
Though my question is basic, I am curious to know the difference between COUNT() and COUNT_BIG(). The only difference I knew is COUNT_BIG() returns bigint. If this is the only difference, why can€™t we use COUNT() in indexed view definition and why COUNT_BIG() is allowed?
Regards,
-Aazad.

SELECT [DEFINITION]
FROM SYS.SQL_MODULES WHERE [OBJECT_ID] = OBJECT_ID(@OBJECTNAME)
I know I can use SP_HELPTEXT to get linebreaks, The reason I want to use this is I can exclude comments section from SQL_Modules, but cannot exclude the comments section from SP_HELPTEXT.

hello all,
i am trying to create a view but i keep getting the error 'View definition includes no output columns or no items in the FROM clause.'
below is the select statement that's the basis of my view. the explanation i got from the F1 help of enterprise manager was ...
View definition includes no output columns or no items in the FROM clause.
A view definition must have at least one table or table-structured object in the FROM clause, and must have at least one column in the select list. The view definition is missing one or both. Modify the view definition accordingly.
query:
select
Case_CaseId,
Logged,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Waiting)/60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Waiting,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Investigating) /60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Investigating,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Rejected) /60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Rejected,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Resolved) /60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Resolved,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Solved) /60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Solved,
CAST(DATEDIFF(minute, Logged, Closed) /60.0 AS NUMERIC(9, 2)) AS Closed
from
(
SELECT
Case_CaseId,
MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Logged' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Logged,
MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Waiting' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Waiting,
MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Investigating' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Investigating,
AS Rejected, MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Resolved' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Resolved,
MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Solved' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Solved,
MIN(CASE WHEN case_stage = 'Closed' THEN Case_CreatedDate END) AS Closed

GROUP BY Case_CaseId
) as temp

Also Please suggest me some links where i can get info about the indexes that has to be created on these types of queries where joins are involved on these many tables.
Also throw some light on how to analyse the execution plan for further enhancements.
Thanks in advance

Have many views based on legacy tables that have different table and column names. Want to create a table that shows view table / column and underlying table column, e.g.
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[Branch]
AS
SELECT
divbra_id BranchID,
cmpny_id CompanyID,
divbra_cde BranchCode,
divbra_nme BranchName
FROM MyDatabase.dbo.divbranc
GO
is an existing view. I want to pull out the following metadata:
divbranc divbra_id Branch BranchID
divbranc cmpny_id Branch CompanyID
divbranc divbra_cde Branch BranchCode
divbranc divbra_nme Branch BranchName
Is there anyway to get this from SQL metadata without actually parsing the view SELECT statement in code?

I am trying to do a schema compare and data compare via VS2012 and I am getting below error: The reverse engineering operation cannot continue because you do not have View Definition permission on the 'Target' database.
Whats interesting is I created a viewdefinition role and added the group(to which the user belongs) to the role. However I dont get the error if I make the group the dbowner. Is this a bug?

The developers in our shop have a need to explicitly grant view definition permissions to themselves on stored procedures they create in their development databases. They have dbo level permissions in these databases and although they can explicitly grant view definition permissions to other developers in the same database, they are unable to do so for themselves. When they attempt this, it appears that they are successful but when they check the stored procedure afterwards the permission is not there for themselves.
While this does not cause an issue in development, the intention is for these view definition permissions to be carried forward to the test and production databases where they only have datareader permissions.
When these stored procedures are scripted out by the dba to move to Test and Production the view definition permissions are not scripted out for the developer in question.
Is there a way that a developer with dbo rights in a database can explicitly grant themselves view definition permissions on a stored procedure they create as dbo?

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 have a complex(long) SQL statement inside of a stored procedure which feeds several variables from 2 tables. Something like
Select @var1, @var2, etc from
table1, table2 where
table1.id = table2.id
Is there any advantage to creating a view for this statement
and selecting from that, even though this resides in a stored procedure?

Wuddup,
I am trying to create a view that encapsulates some specific info from many different tables. I have about 30 tables all with exactly the same field names and field types. I want to take 3 of the fields from every table and put them together into one 'VIEW' so I can run more efficient queries. SQL however, doesn't let you 'combine' 2 columns from different tables into one column in the view. (making sense?)
I tried running a 'UNION' but you are specifically NOT allowed to run a union in a create view statement. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi all,
I am trying to create a view with approx. 3000 columns... and got the following error message:
"CREATE VIEW failed because column 'HSEPRIN' in view 'MyTestView' exceeds the maximum of 1024 columns.
Is it mean the max number of columns for each table is 1024? I thought in SQL server the table can contain as much information as possible.
Anyone can help to answer my question?
Thank you in advance.
