Modify Table Structure Via Stored Procedure(?)
Jun 9, 2008
Our ERP vendor is helping us migrate from one version of their product to another. In the new version, they have added some columns and changed a few data types in several existing tables.
They sent us a list of the modifications that were necessary, which we did (painstakingly) by hand. But, for other reasons the update failed and we have to start anew.
This got me thinking: is there any way to do this kind of update via a script/stored procedure? I don't have their exact changes handy, but it was stuff like the table "inmast" needs a column of varchar(50) called "lotc" added to it, and the "intime" table needs the datatype of columns "Mon" "Tue" "Wed" changed from text to varchar(50), stuff like that.
Is it possible to do stuff like that in a SP?

Now Sql Function can not modify data as Sql Procedure like other database, it's very troublesome at most case!
in most case, Sql Function is used to improve code structure then it can be maintanced easy! BUT only because it can not modify data, there are 2 troublesome way:
1. Make all callers in the path from Sql Functions to Sql Procedure. and the coder will cry, the code will become very
confusional , and very difficult to maintance.
2. Divide the Sql Function into a thin CLR wrapper to call a Sql Procedure, can only use another connection, BUT can not be in the same transaction context And the code is ugly and slow.
You should not give limitation to Sql Function, should just limit the using context of Sql Function!
The sql code is more difficult to read and maintance than norm code(C#), then the improving code structure and readability should be one of your most important task, that's why microsoft!

To get the results of a stored proc into a table you always had to know the structure of the output and create the table upfront.
CREATE TABLE #Tmp (
Key INT NOT NULL,
Data Varchar );
INSERT INTO #Tmp
EXEC dbo.MyProc
Has SQL 2012 (or SQL 2014) got any features / new tricks to let me discover the table structure of a stored procedure output, - i.e treat it as a table
EXEC dbo.MyProc
INTO #NewTmp
or
SELECT *
INTO #NewTmp
FROM ( EXEC dbo.MyProc )

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

Hi,
Below is the SP that I want to modify it such that it does another thing apart from what its doing now. I want to to delete all the records corresponding to the BpDate value before this insert happens. by meaning deleting all the records, I meant to say delete all records where BpDate = @BpDate and SiteCode = @SiteCode.
CREATE PROC CabsSchedule_Save
@JulianDate smallint,
@SiteCode smallint,
@BpDate smallint,
@CalendarDay smallint,
@BillPeriod smallint,
@WorkDay smallint,
@CalDayBillRcvd varchar(30),
@Remarks varchar(50)
AS
INSERT INTO
CabsSchedule(JulianDate, SiteCode, BpDate, CalendarDay, BillPeriod, WorkDay, CalDayBillRcvd, Remarks)
VALUES
(@JulianDate, @SiteCode, @BpDate, @CalendarDay, @BillPeriod, @WorkDay, @CalDayBillRcvd, @Remarks)
GO
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

I have a stored procedure I created in SQL Server 2000 enterprise manager which I would like to modify in SQL Server 2005 Express Management Studio. When I right click on the stored proc and select "Modify", the code opens - however any attempt to save creates a local .SQL file. How can I save these changes to the stored procedure on the server?

Hi,
I'm from Argentina. I'm not an expert at all in SQL, I know very little about it. I've read in MSDN Library that in order to edit a stored procedure I must right-click the procedure to modify, and then click Design.
I'm using SQL Server Management Studio (not Express) and I don't see any "design" option. I do see a "modify" option. I clicked there and modified just a number I wanted to. Once modified I clicked on the X button to shut the file hoping the system would ask me if I wanted to save the changes made. When I clicked "yes" the file saved into "my documents > sql management studio > proyects".
I checked the original Store Procedure file inside "Programmability > Stored Procedures" and obviously it wasn't altered. I have now a file called "SQLQuery31" in "my documents > sql management studio > proyects" that seems to have the modification made.
Why do I have it there (inside My Documents) instead of modifying the original one? What must I do to get that stored procedure modified?
Thanks from Argentina !!

Hi everyone,
I'm currently struggeling in creating some SQL script to create stored procedures. I found the following example on MSDN:
Code SnippetUSE pubs
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysobjects
WHERE name = 'au_info2' AND type = 'P')
DROP PROCEDURE au_info2
GO
USE pubs
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE au_info2
@lastname varchar(30) = 'D%',
@firstname varchar(18) = '%'
AS
SELECT au_lname, au_fname, title, pub_name
FROM authors a INNER JOIN titleauthor ta
ON a.au_id = ta.au_id INNER JOIN titles t
ON t.title_id = ta.title_id INNER JOIN publishers p
ON t.pub_id = p.pub_id
WHERE au_fname LIKE @firstname
AND au_lname LIKE @lastname
GO
The thing is, I want to change and use it like this:
Code SnippetUSE pubsIF NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysobjects
CREATE PROCEDURE ...USE pubsGOALTER PROCEDURE au_info2 ...
But that does not seem to work.. I get the following error:
Code SnippetIncorrect syntax near the keyword 'PROCEDURE'
Any idea's? Any help is appreciated!
Kind regards,
Frederik

I’m trying to create a modified catalog tree out from two tables in sql
The catalog is created from two tables.
Table 1 has the lowest level and is showing the connection with the item and the lowest ItemGroup. It also shows the connection with the MainCatalog
MainCatalogId, ItemGroupId, ItemId
Example data:
(sorry for the tabs that won't work)
MainCatalogIdItemGroupIdItemId
715063823
715073824
715093825
715093826
The catalog structure is in table 2. Here are the connections between the different
ItemGroupId, ParentId
Example data:
ItemGroupIdParentId
15061365
15071365
15091364
13641066
13651066
1066NULL
To be able to use create the tree structure and not getting the result set to big, I need it to look something like this:
ItemGroupIdItemIdLevel 2 level 3Level4
1506 3823136510667
1507 3824136510667
1509 3825136410667
1509 3826136410667
I have tried many ways, but I’m not getting the result I want.
Hope this was understandable, and that someone has an idea if this is manageable
Thanks :)

Hello to all!
I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...
Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanx,
Ziga

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
declare @tTable(col1 int)
insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.

Here is the scenario,
I have 2 stored procedures, SP1 and SP2
SP1 has the following code:
declare @tmp as varchar(300)
set @tmp = 'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET ( ''SQLOLEDB'', ''SERVER=.;Trusted_Connection=yes'',
''SET FMTONLY OFF EXEC ' + db_name() + '..StoredProcedure'' )'
EXEC (@tmp)
SP2 has the following code:
SELECT *
FROM SP1 (which won't work because SP1 is a stored procedure. A view, a table valued function, or a temporary table must be used for this)
Views - can't use a view because they don't allow dynamic sql and the db_name() in the OPENROWSET function must be used.
Temp Tables - can't use these because it would cause a large hit on system performance due to the frequency SP2 and others like it will be used.
Functions - My last resort is to use a table valued function as shown:
FUNCTION MyFunction
( )
RETURNS @retTable
(
@Field1 int,
@Field2 varchar(50)
)
AS
BEGIN
-- the problem here is that I need to call SP1 and assign it's resulting data into the
-- @retTable variable
-- this statement is incorrect, but it's meaning is my goal
INSERT @retTableSELECT *FROM SP1
RETURN

I am working with the following two tables:
Category(NewID,OldID)
Link(CategoryID,BusinessID)
All fields are of Integer Type.
I need to write a stored procedure in sql 2000 which works as follows:
Select all the NewID and OldID from the Category Table
(SELECT NewID,OldID FROM Category)
Then for each rows fetched from last query, execute a update query in the Link table.
For Example,
Let @NID be the NewID for each rows and @OID be the OldID for each rows.
Then the query for each row should be..
UPDATE Link SET CategoryID=@CID WHERE CategoryID=@OID

Hi
SQL 2005 sp1 - merge replication - HTTPS.
We have 2 publications for the database - one which has subscription.SyncType = SubscriptionSyncType.Automatic
and another with SyncType = SubscriptionSyncType.None.
The first publication is there so we can add new stored procs etc, the second contains the initial schema and the data.
When we try to modify a proc which is in the publication with SyncType = Automatic, the query never returns.
This is most urgent - thanks for your help.
