‘default To Local Cursor’ Causes Errors In String-built Declares

Sep 20, 2000

Hi,

I would like to use the dboption ‘default to local cursor’ to true.

But when I set it to true for my database, cursors that are built in a ‘string’ and then executed return an error :

Select @SQL = 'Declare SICCursor cursor For Select SIC1 From ' + @StateTable + ' Where BusinessName = ' + '''' + @BusinessName + '''' + ' Order By PubDate desc'

Exec(@SQL)

Open SICCursor

Openning the cursor returns the error message

“A cursor with the name 'SICCursor' does not exist.”

What am I doing wrong (cursors declared ‘normally’ do not have a problem)?

Thanks,
Judith

Dynamic Query, Local Cursor Variable And Global Cursors

Oct 3, 2006

Hi all.



I am stuck in a bit of a conundrum for quite a while now, and I hope someone here will help me figure this one out.



So, first things first: let me explain what I need to do. I am
designing a web application that will allow users to consult info
available in a SQL2000 database. The user will enter the search
criterea, and hopefully the web page will show matching results.



The problem is the results shown aren't available per se in the DB, I
need to process the data a bit. I decided to do so on the SQL Server
side, though the use of cursors. So, when a user defines his search
criteria, I run a stored procedure that begins by building a dynamic
sql query and creating a cursor for it. I used a global cursor in order
to do so. It looked something like this:



SET @sqlQuery = ... (build the dinamic sql query)

SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE myCursor CURSOR GLOBAL FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery

EXEC @cursorQuery

OPEN myCursor

FETCH NEXT FROM myCursor INTO ...

CLOSE myCursor

DEALLOCATE myCursor



This works fine, if there's only one instance of the
stored procedure running at a time. Should another user connect to the
site and run a search while someone's at it, it'll fail due to the
atempt to create a cursor with the same name.



My first thought was to make the cursor name unique, which led me to:

...

SET @cursorName = 'myCursor' + @uniqueUserID

SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE '+ @cursorName + 'CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery

EXEC @cursorQuery

...



The problem with this is that I can't do a FETCH NEXT FROM @cursorName since
@cursorName is a char variable holding the cursor name, and not a
cursor variable. So to enforce this unique name method the only option
I have is to keep creating dynamic sql queries and exucting them. And
this makes the sp a bitch to develop and maintain, and I'm guessing it
doesn't make it very performant.



So I moved on to my second idea: local cursor variables. The problem with
this is that if I create a local cursor variable by executing a dynamic
query, I can't extract it from the EXEC (or sp_executesql) context, as
it offers no output variable.


I guess my concrete questions are:


Is it possible to execute a dynamic sql query and extract a (cursor) variable from it?Is it possible to populate a local cursor variable with a global cursor, by providing the global cursor's name?Can I create a local cursor variable for a dynamic sql query? How?



Anybody sees another way arround this?Thanks in advance,

Carlos

Transact SQL :: STATIC Defines A Cursor That Makes Temporary Copy Of Data To Be Used By Cursor

Aug 12, 2015

In MSDN file I read about static cursor

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.

Dynamic Cursor Versus Forward Only Cursor Gives Poor Performance

Jul 20, 2005

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

Local SQL Server Instances Not Showing Up On Local Servers Tab Of Management Studio Logon Screen

Oct 2, 2007

We have a 64-bit VM server running SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server on this particular VM server has 6 local instances installed. On the Management Studio logon screen I can type the full name of the local instance and connect to it, however if I press the drop down in the Server name field, choose Browse and select the Local Servers tab there is nothing listed under Database Engines.

Any idea why the 6 local instances don't show up under Database Engines? This is preventing me from installing a vendor application because their installer looks for local SQL Server instances on this server, but if SQL Server won't even show the local instances then the installer doesn't see them either.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Craig

Need Help - Local Synchronization Between SQL Mobile And Local SQL Database

Dec 21, 2005

Hi Everyone

I am at the stage of architecting my solution

My goal is to develop the system on a windows application and pda

There is a central server which will create a publication called inventory

The laptops which host the windows application will be subscribers to the central server using merge replication

The client now wants the PDA using SQL Mobile to synchronize with the local subscirber database on the laptop using active sync. They dont want to do it via WIFI to the IIS Server at the central server

I have been reading for days and I am still unsure whether this is possible to do.

I know Appforge provide a conduit for palm to access synchronization but not local sql databases

I would appreciate your help immensley

Client Side Cursor Vs Sever Side Cursor?

Jul 20, 2005

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

Need Help With A Cursor

Jul 25, 2006

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.

Need Cursor Help

Apr 4, 2006

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

/* Close and deallocate cursor */
Close c_cursor
Deallocate c_cursor

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.

Cursor Help!

Apr 22, 1999

This is what I am trying to do:

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??

Can I Do This Without A Cursor?

Jul 8, 2002

Here's what I' trying to do...

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?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
David

OPEN cCan

FETCH cCan INTO @event

WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0

UPDATE DenInt
SET BreakType = 'SOMETHING'
WHERE DIGridID = DIGridID

END

CLOSE cCan

DEALLOCATE cCan


however, when i run the code above it returns

Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Line 4: Incorrect syntax near 'num1'.
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 22

It Is Possible With Cursor?

I need to fill a cursor with 3 columns.
A want to use a Select sprocs (for re-use de code), but this sproc return 15 columns and the 3 a need was not the 3 frist. :confused:

Do I need to map the 15 columns with 15 variables locally? Or they have a way easier?


Thanks

Can I Use SQL Instead Of Cursor?

Oct 6, 2004

Hi,

I'm currently converting a VB function to SQL-Server. The function uses a cursor to find the "terms of delivery" (TOD) with the highest priority.

I have a table with articlenumber, tod (and lots of other columns that doesn't matter now)

ABC123 , AFG
ABC123 , AFG
ABC123 , BGH
ABC123 , BGH
ABC123 , CDD

"CDD" has the highest priority and therefore ALL with the same articlenumber should use that tod.

The existing function uses a cursor and loops through a recordset and updates every row with the same articlenumber as the current row with the tod with the highest priority (of the ones read) with the same articlenumber.

One update per row takes "forever" to run...

I figured it would be possible to select the tod with the highest priority for one articlenumber into a temp table and then do ONE update to set the tod on all rows...
