Is there a way to pass a parameter into a stored procedure to set the sort order.
I have tried things like
ORDER by EmployeeID @direction
where @direction is a varchar with a value of 'desc' and I get an error.
I do not want to dynamically create the sql and use sp_executesql.
I have already done it this was but I am looking for a better solution.
hi,
i searched a lot to find how to pass an orderBy parameter finally i used a case block in my code and it works now how can i add a second parameter for ascending and descending order(@sortAscOrDesc)
when i use it after the end of case statement i get error
here is my sp:CREATE PROCEDURE [userPhotos]
@userID int,@orderBy varchar(100)
ASSELECT ID,UserID,Photo,ALbumID,Title,views,date_added from userAlbumPic where userID=@userID and albumID=0 order by
case @orderBy
when 'date_added' then date_added
when 'views' then [views]
else date_added
end
GO
we are firing this from my asp page, what i can't work out how to do is pass a sort order via parameter to my stored procedure.
Any Help appreciated

Hi,
I use a DataGrid to show the data, and I want it has a sorting and Paging function,
so I use dataset to collect the data from middle tier function and stored procedure.
I have code in aspx page like BindData(ViewState("SortExpr")).
In the stored procedure I pass SortExpr as parameter as following:
CREATE Procedure Ruying_AutoSearch10
(
@Make varchar(50),
@Model varchar(50) = NULL,
@Condition varchar(20) = NULL,
@Miles float,
@Zipcode varchar(5),
@SortExpr varchar(100)
)
AS
DECLARE @RowCount int
SELECT @RowCount = Count(*) FROM ZIPCodes WHERE ZIPCode = @Zipcode AND CityType = 'D'
if @RowCount > 0
BEGIN
SELECT
z.ZIPCode, z.City, z.StateCode, a.Make, a.Model, a.AutoPrice, a.AutoPrice2, a.AutoYear, a.Mileage, a.AdID, a.ImageURL, dbo.DistanceAssistant(z.Latitude,z.Longitude,r.Latitude,r.Longitude) As Distance
/*
The above functions requires the Distance Assistant.
*/
FROM
ZIPCodes z, RadiusAssistant(@ZIPCode,@Miles) r, AutoAd a
WHERE
z.Latitude <= r.MaxLat
AND z.Latitude >= r.MinLat
AND z.Longitude <= r.MaxLong
AND z.Longitude >= r.MinLong
AND z.CityType = 'D'
AND z.ZIPCodeType <> 'M'
AND z.ZIPCode = a.Zipcode
AND a.AdActive = '1'
AND a.AdExpiredate >= getdate()
AND a.Make = @Make
AND a.Model = IsNull(@Model,a.Model)
AND a.Condition = IsNull(@Condition, a.Condition)
AND dbo.DistanceAssistant(z.Latitude,z.Longitude,r.Latitude,r.Longitude) <= @Miles
ORDER BY @SortExpr
END
ELSE
SELECT -1 As ZIPCode
--ZIP Code not found...
GO
but I got the error as "variables are only allowed when ordering by an expression referenceing
a column name". How I fix this error? Please help.
Thanks.

I am trying to set sorting up on a DataGrid in ASP.NET 2.0. I have it working so that when you click on the column header, it sorts by that column, what I would like to do is set it up so that when you click the column header again it sorts on that field again, but in the opposite direction. I have it working using the following code in the stored procedure: CASE WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'ASC' then Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, Convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end ASC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end DESC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end ASC And I gotta tell you, that is ugly code, in my opinion. What I am trying to do is something like this: case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' then FileName end,
case when @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' then FileDataID end,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' then FileDesc
when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' then VersionNotes
end
case when @SortOrder = 'DESC' then DESC
when @SortOrder = 'ASC' then ASC
end and it's not working at all, i get an error saying: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'case' when i put a comma after the end on line 5 i get: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DESC' What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for any help -Madrak
In SQL sERVER 2008, I have two fields - Depatment and Employees. I need to sort the result set by employee number ascending order, with following exception
1)when department number = 50 - the preferred order is Employee # - 573 followed by 551-572 (employee # belong to Dept 50 = 551-573)
2)When Department number = 20 – the preferred sort order is Employee # 213-220, followed by Employee # 201-213 (employee # belong to Dept 20 = 201-220)
How shall I achieve this?
Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.

Hi,
We got a problem.
supposing we have a table like this:
CREATE TABLE a (
aId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
aName string2 NOT NULL
)
go
ALTER TABLE a ADD
CONSTRAINT PK_a PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (aId)
go
insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
...
... (20 times)
select top 5 * from a order by aName
Result is:
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde
select top 10 * from a order by aName
Result is:
11Bank of abcde
10Bank of abcde
9Bank of abcde
8Bank of abcde
7Bank of abcde
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde
According to this result, user see the first 5 records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 in page 1, but when he tries to view page 2, he still see the records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. This is not correct for users. :eek:
Of course we can add order by aid also, but there are tons of sqls like this, we can't update our application in one shot.
So I ask for your advice here, is there any settings can tell the db use default sort order when the order by column value are the same? Or is there any other solution to resolve this problem in one shot?

I am getting the resultset sorted differently if I use a column number in the ORDER BY clause instead of a column name.
Product: Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition
Version: 9.00.1399.06
Server Collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
for example,
create table test_sort
( description varchar(75) );
insert into test_sort values('Non-A');
insert into test_sort values('Non-O');
insert into test_sort values('Noni');
insert into test_sort values('Nons');
then execute the following selects:
select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( 1 as nvarchar(75));
select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( description as nvarchar(75));
Resultset1
----------
Non-A
Non-O
Noni
Nons
Resultset2
----------
Non-A
Noni
Non-O
Nons
Any ideas?

We have a vendor who insists that sql server 7 be set to a binary sort order. Is there any real advantage to this as opposed to a dictionary sort?

HELP
I'm trying to setup a duplicate of an old SQL Server 4.2 server to put in place while we upgrade the server, but I can't get the sort-order right. I know the existing server uses sort order id 40, but I can't find which sort-order that corresponds to during the install process. If anyone can give me a system table that lists all the sort orders names and id's, or can tell me what the text name for sort order 40 is, I would be very grateful.
Thanks,

I need to copy the structure and data of an existing SQL 6.5 server to one with a different sort order. Normally, I would use the transfer tool to accomplish this, but the servers are on different networks. My question is, is BCP the answer? In other words, will the data copied via BCP from the sending server be able to be copied on the recieiving server. Also, is there a way to automatically generate the BCP statements for all tables? What I would really like is to be able to get at the scripts and data files created by the transfer tool.

How do I create a sort order column in a view? I could use Row_Number() in 2005 but unfortunately I need to create a sort order column in a 2000 view and the View is not letting me to use an ORDER BY.
Any inputs?

The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources!
Are there any techniques I can use to specify the sort order on an insert statement.
I want to insert data from tableA to tableB in a certain order .
I know I can do it with a cursor, but I'm sure theres a better way

Hi,
I want to change the "dictionary Sort Order" in SQL Server 7.0. What will be the impact? What is the safe way to do it?
Under MSSQL7INSTALL there is a file called instcat.sql. Should I run this file to change the catalog settings?
Any help is appriciated.

In Sql6.5 we use binary sort order for a best performance (I think). I hear that it should be highlighted that the case for binary sort order being the fastest method of sorting and searching a database no longer applies at SQL 7.0
Is it right and why ????
Help ...
Does this mean that I have to re-install SQL Server7 on the target server? For some reason, all except one (the source in this case) of our servers were set up taking the defaults (or at least they are all the same). I can not change the source.
Any advise, before I kill myself

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade peoplesoft database which is in SQL server 6.5 with Dictionary sort order to SQL Server 7.0 Binary sort order. SQL Server Upgrade wizard fails because of different sort order.

Does anyone have any experience handling mixed-character data in Unicode, especially in how to handle sorting it?
For example, if I have a customer database with records from all over the world, with customer names in Chinese, Russian, Swedish, Arabic & Hebrew, and I want to generate a list of all customers who have not upgraded to the latst version yet, it will be sorted in the sort order of the locale I defined at DB installation. Say, in this case, US English. How do the Chinese, Arabic, Swedish, etc. characters get sorted?
I'm interested to know if this is something that people are grappling with out there, or whether it's a non-issue. I think what's probably needed is a special Unicode mixed-character sort order, encompasing all the Unicode codepoints and sorting them in an order that's as usable as possible for the general user. (e.g. Latin characters case-sensitive, including accented characters, then Asian characters in stroke order, etc.) Or maybe serveral different mixed-character sort orders would be the thing... Any feedback would be appreciated.
Hi,
I'm doing some work for a client who has not been backing up

to use sp_attach_db I get the following error message :

Hi,
Is there any way to change the sort order from case sensitive to case insensitive in SQL Server 6.5 without having to rebuild the master db and all users db's.
thanks in advance.
I have select query that has text field in select list. When I use order by clause it gives me incorrect sort in result.
We are running SQL2K with service pack 4.
I find BUG #: 470536 on Microsoft site and it suggest applying service pack 4.
Is anyone has similar problem?
Thanks in advance.
I didn't install SQL Server myself and nobody remember what sort order and character set

I would like to format the output of a query. I have a few CaseCategoryID's I would like to sort; however, I do not want to sort them ascending or descending, I want to sort them by CaseCategoryID 3, then 8, then 4, then 11, and then the rest. Is this possible?
