Need Info About Dynamic Reporting (Read Problem Statement, Inside)
Jun 21, 2007
Hi All!
I have a specific requirement.
I have to generate a report on the fly.
The display fields, parameters and sort conditions would be user specified at run time in a ASP.NET web form. There will be a superset of the display, filter and sort fields out of which the user cans select one or more.
From the web form, i am taking these three parts as three strings and sending them as parameters to a Stored Procedure. The Stored Procedure will read each string, and identify what are the individual fields and generates the result accordingly.
So here my requirement is that Reporting Services must read the Stored Procedure, create a dataset and even create the User Interface all at run-time as we do not know what fields are displayed at design time. The Headers for each field come from the Stored Procedure. I have to show the report based on what are the fields in the Stored procedure at that instance of time.
I just want to know how to search text/record inside the Html files. I had one column in my database named €˜Path€™ I saved the html file names in this column and the physical files in a folder. Full Text search is enabled on this column. Whenever I try to search it returns nothing.
Just need one small example to know how it works, what functions used to search inside the files and how.
BEGIN TRAN INSERT Z_Test SELECT STATE_CODE FROM View_STATE_CODE COMMIT
View_STATE_CODE points to remote SQL server named PROD. There is error when I run this query:
Server: Msg 8501, Level 16, State 1, Line 12 MSDTC on server 'PROD' is unavailable. Server: Msg 7391, Level 16, State 1, Line 12 The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction. OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d01c].
It looks like remote server is not available inside the local transaction. How to handle that?
Hello friends, I want to use select statement in a CASE inside procedure. can I do it? of yes then how can i do it ?
following part of the procedure clears my requirement.
SELECT E.EmployeeID, CASE E.EmployeeType WHEN 1 THEN select * from Tbl1 WHEN 2 THEN select * from Tbl2 WHEN 3 THEN select * from Tbl3 END FROM EMPLOYEE E
can any one help me in this? please give me a sample query.
When I run the query below on my DB, it gives the following error: Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Procedure partstlist ...Error converting data type varchar to float. Only after I replace the " + @d + " section with a float numnber such as 39020.5 does it work fineIt's reported that my temporary table named #tbl doesn't exist within the scope of the environment that the EXEC(UTE) command operates.Someone said that I couldn't combine dynamic SQL and temporary tables or table variables...and that I would have to use a global temp table "##tbl" or a permanent table. So here I have appearantly a "DYNAMiC SQL & TEMPORARY TABLE" problem. That's sure. But I don't have much knowledge and experience with SQL tables and have difficulty forming a global temp table "##tbl" or a permanent table.and I have to employ the datetime variable dynamically @d inside the Dynamic SQL string. So what kind of a code should I use here to properly combine Dynamic SQL string with my dynamic datetime variable? I'd be grateful if you could post your code suggestions so that I can try them on my DB .. alter PROCEDURE partslist@no INT,@dt DATETiMEASDECLARE @s VARCHAR(5000)DECLARE @d floatSET @d = CONVERT (float, @dt2)create TABLE #tbl(pageindex int IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY , prt_name varchar(50), prt_country varchar(50) , prt_date smalldatetime, partID int , prt_cat varchar(50),prt_product_type nvarchar(10), producer_company nvarchar(50), producer_city nvarchar(50), prt_released DATETIME, dvalue float, datevalue varchar(26) )BEGiNSET ANSI_WARNINGS OFFSET ROWCOUNT @noSELECT @s = 'INSERT INTO #tbl SELECT prt_name, Countries.Val AS ''prt_country'' , prt_date, partID , partsCategories.Val AS ''prt_cat'' , partsProductTypes.Val AS ''prt_product_type'' , producers.producer_company AS ''producer_company'' , producers.producer_city AS ''producer_city'' , prt_released , CONVERT (float, prt_released) , CONVERT (varchar(26) , prt_released, 109) FROM producer_parts JOIN partsProductTypes ON (producer_parts.prt_product_type = partsProductTypes.ID) JOIN partsCategories ON (producer_parts.prt_cat = partsCategories.ID)JOIN Countries ON (producer_parts.prt_country = Countries.ID) JOIN producers ON (producer_parts.producerID = producers.producerID) WHERE prt_visible = 1 AND CONVERT (float, prt_released) > ' + @d + ' AND CONVERT (float, prt_released) < 39025.5ORDER BY prt_released DESC SELECT * FROM #tbl'EXEC (@s)SET ROWCOUNT 0ENDGO partslist 10 , '10.10.2006 10:10:10' -- This is just to test the SP. This code may not be syntatically correct, it's a re-edited version of my code which works fine in my DB.
Is it possible to write dynamic sql on scalar function and assign the value to return value? I like some thing like below but it is not working... Thanks ______________________________________________________________________ set @sql = 'select @CallLegKey= min(calllegkey) as CallLegKey from rt_'+@platform+'_CallLegs where datediff(day,convert(datetime, CallEndTime) ,'''+cast(@today as varchar(20))+''') = '+cast(@cutoff as varchar(5)) exec @sql
Hello,I need to have a stored procedure, which performs sorting. Something likethis:CREATE PROCEDURE procname@sortby varchar(30)ASBEGINSELECT some, columnsFROM some_tableORDER BY @sortbyEND(of course, i know this won't work, but it gives the idea of what i mean)Is there a possibility to write a procedure which behaves like that? It isimportant for me not to have multiple procedures just for different sortingcriteria...Thanks,Mike
it seems like i am able to create it. But when i try to access that temporary table, i get an error "Invalid object". this is happening only when i try to create local temporary table. Global temporary table works fine inside the dynamic SQL.
Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.
Im trying to select rows on the following criteria
My app has a user that can have x jobs, each job has related entries which are marked has unread or read. I need to return any jobs that contain any unread entries also I need to return other jobs that have no entries marked as read.
Comment ReadThe Job 157 Comment ReadThird 159 Comment ReadMy Job 164 On Site Visit ReadMy newest job for log test 167
but as you can see jobid 164 appears in both groups and I need it to be one or the other
I tried using the if exists statement and was only able to return one group either unread or read, not both. I've tried everything but I'm new and I figure that theres got to be a more elegant way. Heres my sql:
CREATE PROCEDURE spGetJobsByUnreadAndReadByUserID @UserID INT AS
BEGIN IF EXISTS(SELECT DISTINCT Master_Jobs.JobID, Profiles.ProfileDescriptor, Backup_UserNotes.BackUp_Read, Master_Jobs.Job_Title, Master_Jobs.Contact, Master_Jobs.Due_Date, Master_Jobs.Due_Time, Master_Jobs.Next_Action, Master_Jobs.By_Who
FROM Master_Jobs INNER JOIN Note ON Master_Jobs.JobID = Note.FK_JobID INNER JOIN Backup_UserNotes ON Note.NoteID = Backup_UserNotes.BackUp_NoteID INNER JOIN User_Notes ON Note.NoteID = User_Notes.FK_UN_NoteID INNER JOIN Job_Assignments ON Master_Jobs.JobID = Job_Assignments.FK_Master_JobID INNER JOIN Profiles ON Master_Jobs.FK_ProfileID = Profiles.ProfileID INNER JOIN Users ON Backup_UserNotes.BackUp_UserID = Users.UserID AND User_Notes.FK_UN_UserID = Users.UserID AND Job_Assignments.UserID = Users.UserID
WHERE Users.UserID = @UserID AND-- Note.FK_UserID = User_Notes.FK_UN_UserID AND BackUp_Read = 'UnRead')
I have an if statement for one of my columns in my query. I want to write the if statement as a part of my select statement. How would I do that. Do to a couple of rules I am not allowed to write a stored procedure for this.
I could use the "decode function" but
I have something like this: if column1 = '1' or column2 = '2' then select "Yes" etc..
I tried doing select decode (column1 or column2, , , ) but it doesn't work. Any ideas?

SET @Value=Select Value from Table WHERE xyz='some no.' as this value is being calculated by some other fucntion and now this funcation has to use this at runtime.
Hi All, Can we use the while loop inside a select statement? Meaning, something like this:
Code Block SELECT DATE, WHILE (SELECT TOP 1 DATEPART(HH,DATE) FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE) <= 23 (SELECT DATEADD(HH,6,SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE.DATE) ) FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE
What I want to do here is I have a table which has all the dates but with time only representing 00 hrs. I want to display this column and along side, I want to have another column, which displays the date split at 6 hours. So, one left column, there will 4 columns on the right.
Am looking for inputs on tools for MSSQL. Some of my requirements are
1) Database Audits or to audit database settings and Logins 2) Performance Monitoring 3) Query Tuning 4) Data Compare 5) Load Testing - to see how an sql instance/server reacts to higher load/volume.
I am looking for reviews/web-links from any first-hand experience wherever possible.
If I start a transaction using the following approach ... using (SqlTransaction trans = destConn.BeginTransaction()) { ...do some transfers using SqlBulkCopy }...will an automatic rollback occur in case of unhandled errors inside the scope of the using statement?
Can someone please take a quick look at this and tell me what I'm doing wrong I'm sure it's something simple. I'm a little new to stored procedures but I've been using SQL and T-SQL for quite some time, I've just always used inline queries with my ASP. This procedure needs to be run monthly by me or another person I grant access to and will update sales information that our sales staff will be paid commission on. I need to supply the start date and and end date for the query and it will pull this information from our business system which is hosted remotely by a third party and pull it into our local SQL server where we can run commission reports against it. (I hope this is enough information you can understand where I'm trying to go with this). I know my problem right now lies in how I'm trying to call the variable inside of my T-SQL. Any help is appreciated. This is an old Unix system and it stores the date as YYYYMMDD as numeric values incase someone wonders why I have dimed my dates as numeric instead of as datetime =) I'm using a relativity client to create an ODBC connection to the UNIX server and then using a linked server to map a connection in SQL this is the reason for the OpenQuery(<CompanyName> SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO -- ============================================= -- Author: XXXXXXXXXXXXX -- Create date: 10/4/2007 -- Description: This proc is designed to pull all CSA -- part sales from XXXXXX business system and upload them -- into the local XXXXXXXX Database for commission reporting -- =============================================CREATE proc usp_CSAPartsSalesUpdate@date1 int, @date2 int As INSERT INTO CSAPartsSales ( CSA, CustomerNumber, CustomerName, Location, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceDate, InvoiceAmount ) SELECT SalesRoute, HInvCust, CustOrCompName, HInvLoc, HInvNo, HInvDate, HInvAmt From OpenQuery(<CompanyName>, 'Select CPBASC_All.SalesRoute, PMINVHST.HInvCust, CPBASC_All.CustOrCompName, PMINVHST.HInvLoc, PMINVHST.HInvNo, PMINVHST.HInvDate, PMINVHST.HInvAmtFROM PMINVHST INNER JOIN CPBASC_All ON PMINVHST.HInvCust = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo WHERE (((PMINVHST.HInvAmt)<>0) AND ((PMINVHST.HInvDate)>=''' + @date1 + ''' And (PMINVHST.HInvDate)<=''' + @date2 + ''') AND ((Trim([CPBASC_All].[SalesRoute]))<>'''' And (Trim([CPBASC_All].[SalesRoute]))<>''000''))')
In this example date1 will be equal to 20070901 and date2 will be equal to 20070930 so I can pull all CSA sales for the month of September. This is the error message I get when I try to create the proc: Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure usp_CSAPartsSalesUpdate, Line 17 Incorrect syntax near '+'. ~~~ Thanks All~~~
Hi, can you add a counter inside a select statement to get a unique id line of the rows? In my forum i have a page that displays a users past posts in the forum, these are first sorted according to their topicID and then they are sorted after creation date. What i want is in the select statement is to create a counter to get a new numeric order. This is the normal way: SELECT id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID) ... some more where/order by statements This is what i want: DECLARE @tempCounter bigintSET @tempCounter = 0SELECT @tempCounter, id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID)... some more where/order by statements and at the end.. (SELECT @tempCounter = @tempCounter + 1) Anyone know if this can be done?
I have a need to execute a cursor inside a select statment, but I'm having problems figuring this out. The reason this need to be inside a select statement is that I am inserting the cursor logic into a query expression in PeopleSoft Query.
So! Here's the statement that works:
====================== DECLARE @fixeddate datetime DECLARE @CVG_ELECT char(1) DECLARE @Effdt datetime DECLARE EFFDTS CURSOR FOR SELECT Z.EFFDT, COVERAGE_ELECT FROM PS_LIFE_ADD_BEN Z WHERE Z.EMPLID = '1000' AND Z.EFFDT <= GETDATE() AND Z.PLAN_TYPE = '20' ORDER BY Z.EFFDT DESC OPEN EFFDTS FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN if @CVG_ELECT <> 'E' break ELSE SET @fixeddate = @Effdt FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT END
CLOSE EFFDTS DEALLOCATE EFFDTS PRINT @fixeddate
====================== If I execute this in SQL Query Analyzer it gives me the data I am looking for. However, if I try to paste this into a select statement, it goes boom (actually, it says "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'.", but you get the idea).
Is it possible to encapsulate this inside a select statement?
hi all, i'm wondering if i can use one stored procedure in too cases, this is the senario: i have stored procedure for admin and another one for user, they have the same select everything is the same except that in admin SP i have where @admin = admin and for user i have where @user = user if there a way to use if and else to make this happen this is what i did so far:
CREATE PROCEDURE [test] @admin INT, @user INT, @indexType INT as if @indexType = 1
begin
SELECT * FROM table WHERE something IN (SELECT * FROM anothertable where admin = @admin) end else begin SELECT * FROM table WHERE user = @user end GO
We have 2005 Reporting Services fully functional - Dev, QA and prod (farm). I have at least 5 distinct business group trees in my structure, who have inherited or modified security based upon NT Users and AD groups. Now, we want to replace a major group (<domain_name>Domain Users) with a controlled group.
I cannot find anyway to report or map the folders that a specific NT User and AD group has rights. Cannot it be done?
I've looked up Books Online on Dynamic Cursor/ Dynamic SQL Statement.
Using the examples given in Books Online returns compilation errors. See below.
Does anyone know how to use Dynamic Cursor/ Dynamic SQL Statement?

Is there a way to start the report wizard from within an existing report design, I have only been able to use the report wizard when i create a new report, I would like to start the wizard with an existing report?
I need to run a sequel statement in a stored procedure and get if it found any records because the next statements depend on if records were found or not. How do I do this?
