Im generally a vb programmer and am used to referencing multiple records
returned from a query performed on an sql database and im trying to move
some functions of my software into sql stored procedures. So far ive been
able to move the functions relatively easily but im unsure about how to
output multiple values from an sql stored procedure. By this i mean for
example one of the stored procedures may take your username and return the
contents of a single field in a record of one of the tables, but i would
like to be able to return for arguement sake the contents of a single field
from two records if possible. Under VB im used to referencing the recordset
with a (1) after it to reference the corresponding record from the query. I
was wondering if there is a way to do something similar to this with stored
procedures if possible ?
SET @SQL = 'Select * FROM IdentipassNew.dbo.CBORD_Interface_Final' SET @BCPBody = 'bcp "' + @SQL + '" queryout "d:smartcardcbordudfcbordbody.txt" -T -fc:cpbody.fmt'
Problem is, there is over 85,000 records in that set and that is too big for the text file, so I was wondering if it would be possible to select like 30,000 records output those to a text file, then select the next 30,000 and create another file, then finally get the remaing records and put that in another text file. Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to accomplish this?
What I am looking to do is use a complicated stored procedure to getdata for me while in another stored procedure.Its like a view, but a view you can't pass parameters to.In essence I would like a sproc that would be like thisCreate Procedure NewSprocASSelect * from MAIN_SPROC 'a','b',.....WHERE .........Or Delcare Table @TEMP@Temp = MAIN_SPROC 'a','b',.....Any ideas how I could return rows of data from a sproc into anothersproc and then run a WHERE clause on that data?ThanksChris Auer
I need to call a stored procedure to insert data into a table in SQL Server from SSIS data flow task. I am currently trying to use OLe Db Destination, but I am not sure how to map inputs to OLE DB Destination to my stored procedure insert. Thanks
Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created' returns an int value as 1 (performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created') but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie: exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1' which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc): SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example). My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert). Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?
I have written the following stored procedure to export a csv file. I am wanting to put a If statement in here so if view UDEF_DISPATCHER_INTERFACE_ORDER_HEADER_VIEW returns nothing then the procedure does not run.
INSERT INTO UDEF_DISPATCHER_INTERFACE_ORDER_HEADER_TABLE_TEMP SELECT * FROM UDEF_DISPATCHER_INTERFACE_ORDER_HEADER_VIEW
INSERT INTO UDEF_DISPATCHER_INTERFACE_ORDER_LINE_TABLE_TEMP SELECT * FROM UDEF_DISPATCHER_INTERFACE_ORDER_LINE_VIEW
Hi,I've got some XML which exists as a text variable in a temp table in SQL Server 2000.I need to pass this XML into sp_xml_preparedocument so I can rebuild a table out of it. But I can't figure out the syntax.If I try doing this:declare @idoc intexec sp_xml_preparedocument @idoc output, (select XmlResult from #cache)I get an error, with or without the brackets round the select statement.The temp table is created using an SP, but I can't call that directly either. This:declare @idoc intexec sp_xml_preparedocument @idoc output, exec Search$GetCache @searchIDAlso throws an error.I can't put it into a local variable because they can't be of type text. I can't pass it into the SP somewhere as it's being generated on the fly.How can I get my xml into sp_xml_preparedocument?Cheers,Matt

I have an SQL query that can generate XML file. However, it does not seemed to work as a stored procedure. Basically, i want to be able to generate an XML file based on the data stored in a SQL table and be able to do this using script...Also, if there is a script (or stored procedure) that will allow me to generate the XML file with the specification of an XML schema would even be better... e.g Sample XML file required...<Person><Name>Raymond</Name><NickName>The Legend</NickName></Person><Person><Name>Peter</Name><NickName>The King</NickName></Person> sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;GORECONFIGURE;GOsp_configure 'Web Assistant Procedures', 1;GORECONFIGUREGOsp_makewebtask @outputfile = 'C:MyExportFile.xml', @query = 'SELECT * FROM MyTableName for XML AUTO, TYPE, ELEMENTS', @templatefile = 'C:Template.tpl'
I want to capture and process data inside of a stored procedure by executing another stored procedure. If proc1 calls proc2 and proc2 returns 1 or more rows, consisting of 2 or more columns, what is the best way to do this?
Currently, I know I'm returning 1 row of 3 columns, so I concatenate the data and either return it with an OUTPUT parameter or using the RETURN stmt.
I have a table that has data and is indexed by the Visit #. Each month I receive new data from a text file that I have to import into this table. On all occasions the text file will have one of the existing Visit #'s contained in it.
I wrote a simple stored procedure that has the INSERT/SELECT statement but the problem I am having is when I execute the Stored Procedure and I run into a record from the text file that already exist in my table the stored procedure errors and stops at that point.
How do I write a stored procedure that will ignore that text record and continue reading the text file and insert records that do not exist?
Hi i m new in sqlserver databases i need to know how to "store output of data from stored procedure in a text file " suppose i have a stored procedure which has to cuculate some out put from some tables and in the end i want that all out put in comma delimited text file. my databse name is check1 i need help please thanks in advance take care bye
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
For a particular application i retrieve records using stored procedure and bind the same to the data grid and display the same. The data are fetched from a table say A joined with couple of tables to staisfy the requirement. Now this table A has around 3700000 + records. The Select statement is as
Select column1, column 2, column 3...................... column 25 from table A
inner join hash table D on A.Column3 = D.Column3 and A.Column4 = D.Column4 and a.nColumn1 = @ParameterVariable Inner join table B on a.nColumn1 =b.nColumn1 inner join table C on A.column2 = C.column2
Indices defined on A are IDX1 : Column 3, Column 4 IDX2 : Column 1
Around 350 records per second are inserted into the table A during the peak operation time. During this time when executing the procedure, it takes around 4 mins to fetch just 25000 records.
I need to fine tune the procedure. Please suggest me on same.
I have a stored prodecure that runs on my laptop (XP SP2) but does not run out on a production server (2003). The stored procedure takes 2 parameters. When I simply run the query I get a result set, but when I execute the stored procedure with the same parameters the data is not grabbed (no error).
There are other stored procedures in this database that run fine, it's just this one that is giving me a problem.
DECLARE @strRole nvarchar(15), @ContactID int SELECT @strRole = Role, @ContactID = ContactID FROM Contact WHERE UserName = @strUserName Select DISTINCT Contact.ContactID ID, UPPER(Surname + 'gd ' + Forename ) AS Description, UPPER(Surname + ' ' + Forename + ' ' + ContactReference) AS Description_CR , UPPER(ISNULL(ContactReference,'')) ContactReference FROM Contact LEFT JOIN AssignedEmployee on Contact.ContactID = AssignedEmployee.ContactID WHERE RUEmployee=1 AND ( ((@CourseID = 0 AND @blnIsSearch=1 ) OR COALESCE(AssignedEmployee.CourseID,0) = @CourseID)) AND (@ProjectID = 0 OR COALESCE(AssignedEmployee.ProjectID,0) = @ProjectID) AND ( (@strRole = 'MIS_TUTOR' AND (AssignedEmployee.ContactID = @ContactID OR CourseID IN (SELECT CourseID FROM AssignedEmployee WHERE ContactID = @ContactID AND Lead = 1) OR AssignedEmployee.ProjectID IN (SELECT ProjectID FROM AssignedEmployee WHERE CourseID IS NULL AND Lead = 1 AND ContactID = @ContactID)) ) OR (@strRole <> 'MIS_TUTOR') ) SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON GO
now if i run this stored procedure in Query Analyzer like so...
but if i lift the SQL out of the stored procedure and run it in Query Analyzer like so....
Code Block SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL OFF
DECLARE @ProjectID int, @CourseID int, @blnIsSearch int, @strUserName nvarchar(20) SET @ProjectID = 0 SET @CourseID = 0 SET @blnIsSearch = 1 SET @strUserName = 'K_T'
DECLARE @Role nvarchar(15), @ContactID int SELECT @Role = Role, @ContactID = ContactID FROM Contact WHERE UserName = @strUserName PRINT @ContactID Select DISTINCT Contact.ContactID ID, UPPER(Surname + ' ' + Forename ) AS Description, UPPER(Surname + ' ' + Forename + ' ' + ContactReference) AS Description_CR , UPPER(ISNULL(ContactReference,'')) ContactReference FROM Contact LEFT JOIN AssignedEmployee on Contact.ContactID = AssignedEmployee.ContactID WHERE RUEmployee=1 AND ( ((@CourseID = 0 AND @blnIsSearch=1 ) OR COALESCE(AssignedEmployee.CourseID,0) = @CourseID)) -- the above line was modified to make sure only employees explicitly assigned to a project are brought back. unless it's a search AND (@ProjectID = 0 OR COALESCE(AssignedEmployee.ProjectID,0) = @ProjectID) AND ( (@Role = 'MIS_TUTOR' AND ( (AssignedEmployee.ContactID = @ContactID OR CourseID IN (SELECT CourseID FROM AssignedEmployee WHERE ContactID = @ContactID AND Lead = 1))) OR AssignedEmployee.ProjectID IN (SELECT ProjectID FROM AssignedEmployee WHERE CourseID IS NULL AND Lead = 1 AND ContactID = @ContactID) ) OR (@Role <> 'MIS_TUTOR') )
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON
i only get 5 records returned???
so why do i get a difference when its the same SQL??
Username 'K_T' is of role 'MIS_TUTOR' therefore @Role = 'MIS_TUTOR'
any help on unravelling this mystery is appreciated!

More Information for you to know: I have the "ssmsExpressDB" database in the Database Expolorer of VB 2005 Express. But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly. I try to learn "Working with SELECT Statement in a Stored Procedure" for printing the 6 rows that are selected - they are not parameterized.
Hello All, I'm trying to develop a stored procedure that would do one of TWO things: 1. Return a 'status' that a value does not exist, if I were to provide the parameter via an ASP.NET2.0 page 2. If it does exists, to return the row data associated with that value (id number) The stored procedure would search a SQL Server table within it self first. It that fails it would look at an Oracle table (work order table). And if that fails to return a 'row' to look through another Oracle table (work request table). If that doesn't occur, then it would throw the result as described in #2. If the result exists in one of the TWO Oracle tables it would then insert that row into the first SQL Server table that the stored procedure searched through AND would return the row set to the ASP.NET page. While all this is happening, I was hoping to get some insight as to how to create a "Please Wait..." feedback and then moving to the final result. Looking forward to the wise words of the many on this forum, as I have experienced in the past! :)
Hello everyone I have a stored procedure that I am trying to save datetime data to at the moment I can create a string that will output 25/05/2007 18:30 Does anyone know the best way to get this into the correct format for my SP parameter cmdPublish.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@datPublishDate", System.Data.SqlDbType.DateTime)); cmdPublish.Parameters["@datPublishDate"].Value = ????

Hi, I'm at my wit's end with this. I have a simple stored procedure: PROCEDURE [dbo].[PayWeb_getUserProfile] ( @user_id_str varchar(36), @f_name varchar(50) OUTPUT)AS BEGINDECLARE @user_id uniqueidentifier; SELECT @user_id = CONVERT(uniqueidentifier, @user_id_str); select @f_name=f_name FROM dbo.tbl_user_profile WHERE user_id = @user_id; ENDRETURN The proc runs perfectly from the Management Console. In my ASP.net form (C#), the following always results in: "Invalid attempt to read when no data is present." (I'll highlight the line where the error results): SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(<connection string data>);SqlDataReader reader; SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand("dbo.PayWeb_getUserProfile", conn);comm.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter f_name = new SqlParameter("@f_name", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50); f_name.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;comm.Parameters.Add(f_name); comm.Parameters.Add("@user_id_str", SqlDbType.VarChar, 36).Value = Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey.ToString().ToUpper();reader = comm.ExecuteReader();Response.Write("Num: " + reader["@f_name"].ToString()); // ERROR: Invalid attempt to read when no data is present. reader.Close();conn.Close(); The data is there. When I put a watch on 'Reader', I see the correct first_name data there. Your help is appreciated.
Im currently in the process of developing a new system in ASP.net. The system uses multiple tables from a SQL database. To link information from say the products table to the suppliers table a unique key from the suppliers table is stored in the products table to show which products each supplier has bought...simple so far.
From this I can then pull out any of the information relating to that product instead of just displaying the ID. Currently this is done by creating a stored procedure and then dragging the stored procedure onto the dataset layer to create the data adapter.
Im not 100% this is the best way to be doing this. Is it possible to simply just link the tables in the dataset layer to display a string from another table instead of an ID referencing number?!
any help on this would be much appreciated as I cant really continue untill I have sorted out the data structure problems.Thanks in advancedmowfo
