Problem Running SP_EXECUTESQL With OpenRowSet (with Variable) As Part Of The Query
Nov 27, 2007
Hi,
I had problem when combining OpenRowSet and SP_EXECUTESQL, when i tried to run the following query, it complaints that RESID is not declared. any idea how should i put the query so i will pass @RESID as 1 of the parameter? BTW, i know that the SP_EXECUTESQL is able to run query which length up to 8000, but how about the parameter?
In the following stored procedure, I am doing Right outer join with the table variable. I am getting error 'Must declare the scalar variable "@MonthSales1"'. Can you please let me know how to do this?

Hello,to accelerate loading xml data from many files into a table using openrowset (bulk...) I want to use a variable in the file specification and increment it within a loop similar to this:
declare @datnam varchar(100); DECLARE @MyCounter int; SET @MyCounter = 1; set @datnam = 'c:XML_DatenPOS_LOG_200608_'+ltrim(str(@MyCounter))+'.xml'; INSERT INTO GK_TO_KFH_ADAPTER_XML_NS (LOC_ID, MSG_CONTENT) SELECT @MyCounter, MSG_CONTENT FROM ( SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET (BULK @datnam, SINGLE_CLOB) AS MSG_CONTENT) AS R(MSG_CONTENT)
But I got the following error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 8 Incorrect syntax near '@datnam'.
Is there a way to this in that manner? Or is the bcp utility an alternative?
The MsgBox pops up indicating that the Stored Procedure has run, and there are no errors produced by either SQL Server or Access. However, when I inspect the results of the Stored Procedure, it has not processed all the records it should have. It appears to stop processing after between 6 and 11 records out of a total of 50. The wierd thing is that if I execute the procedure on the server manually, it works perfectly. HELP ME IF U CAN ! THANKS.
Hi my data files sit in the default directories and I think they are causing my partition to run out of space. I mainly use one db that I created but don't use the others (ie master, model, tempdb, etc). Yet I see their MDF and LDF files are growing. What can I do to shrink them down or perhaps move them off to a larger partition after shrinking?
I know this can be done, because I saw it and tried it once. But did not use it at the time and consequently forgot how.
I am storing an expression to a variable @Var Varchar(50)
@Var = ('aa','bb','cc')
I want to:
Select * from Table WHERE Field IN @Var
Substituting my variable for the " ('aa',bb','cc') which I can build dynamically...thus the use.
Purpose: I have an aggregate query that currently has a CASE statement based on the contents of ('aa',bb','cc'). However, those contents can change. The aggregate will not allow the subquery (SELECT Field FROM Table).
I have a huge question, it's for my job im doing now. I have a table with the name TWO.dbo.SVC06105. I want to be able to take the word "TWO" and put that into a variable. I know this doesn't look correct, but I want to be able to do something like this:
DECLARE @GPNAME CHAR(100) SET @GPNAME = 'TWO'
SELECT * FROM @GPNAME.dbo.SVC06105
I know the SELECT statement isn't correct, but I hope that you guys understand what i'm trying to do through this example. BTW, I am new to this team so nice to meet you all. L8er
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_SelectMostRecentArticle]

DECLARE @article_id INT SELECT @article_id = ( SELECT TOP 1 article_id FROM article ORDER BY article_id DESC )

HAVING article_id = @article_id
END GO
as you can see, im trying to return a comment_count value, but the only way I can do this is by defining the variable.
I have had to do it this way, because I cannot say COUNT(comment.comment_id) AS comment_count or it returns an error that it cant reference the comment.comment_id.
But when change it to FROM article, comment; I get errors about the article_author_id and article_comment_id.
And i cant add a join, because it would return the amount of rows of the comment...
unless someone could help with what i Just decribed (as i would prefer to do it this way), how would i return the variable value as part of the select statement?
I am trying to build a proc that uses a loop to import data into several tables. The data is copied into the appropriate table according to the contents of the variable @PracticeCode. I am also trying to add a date value to each record as it is added to the table. I thought that the best way to do this would be t use the sp_executesql stored proc. but I am having difficulty getting it to work. Here's what I have done so far:
-- insert data into proper tables with extract date added SET @SQLString ='INSERT INTO GMS_48hrAccess.dbo.tbl_Surgery'+@PracticeCode+' SELECT SurgeryKey,'+ @extractDate+', ClinicianCode, StartTime, SessionGroup, [Description], SurgeryName, Deleted, PremisesKey FROM GMS_48hrAccess.dbo.tbl_SurgeryIn'
EXEC master..sp_executesql @SQLString
And here's the error message that I get:
Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 90 Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
I understand why I am getting this error I just can't seem to fix it. I've consulted BOl and have tried various Parameter combinations but to no avail.
This is a odd problem where a bad plan was chosen again and again, butthen not.Using the profiler, I identified an application-issued statement thatperformed poorly. It took this form:exec sp_executesql N'SELECT col1, col2 FROM t1 WHERE (t2= @Parm1)',N'@Parm1 int', @Parm1 = 8609t2 is a foreign key column, and is indexed.I took the statement into query analyzer and executed it there. Thequery plan showed that it was doing a scan of the primary key index,which is clustered. That's a bad choice.I then fiddled with it to see what would result in a good plan.1) I changed it to hard code the query value (but with the parmdefinition still in place. )It performed well, using the correct index.Here's how it looked.exec sp_executesql N'SELECT cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.AZEl_Intid AS[Oid], cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.incomplete_flag AS [IsIncomplete],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.traceflag AS [IsTraceAmount],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.standardqty AS [StandardAmount],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.Uitem_intid AS [NutritionItemOid],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.AZeldef_intid AS [AnalysisElementOid] FROMcbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement WHERE (Uitem_intid= 8609)', N'@Parm1 int',@Parm1 = 8609After doing this, re-executing the original form still gave badresults.2) I restored the use of the parm, but removed the 'exec' from thestart.It performed well.After that (surprise!) it also performed well in the original form.What's going on here?

I'm trying to pass through a SQL statement to an Oracle database usingOPENROWSET. My problem is that I'm not sure of the exact syntax I needto use when the SQL statement itself contains single quotes.Unfortunately, OPENROWSET doesn't allow me to use parameters so I can'tget around the problem by assigning the SQL statement to a parameter oftype varchar or nvarchar as inSELECT *FROM OPENROWSET('MSDAORA','myconnection';'myusername';' mypassword',@chvSQL)I tried doubling the single quotes as inSELECT *FROM OPENROWSET('MSDAORA','myconnection';'myusername';' mypassword','SELECT *FROM AWHERE DateCol > To_Date(''2002-12-01'', ''yyyy-mm-dd'')')But that didn't work. Is there a way out of this?Thanks,Bill E.Hollywood, FL

Okay, so I came across an odd performance issue that I'm wondering if some guru can help me out with.
I have a query that uses a paging algorithm that uses a paging algorithm and a table variable, then gets a page of data based on a join to that table variable. Here's a simplified query using the algoritm:
--declare table variable... not shown for brevity
--make sure we only store the least amount of records possible SET ROWCOUNT ( @pageNumber + 1 ) * @pageSize
--insert into table variable INSERT INTO @TableVariable( Key ) SELECT key FROM table WHERE whatever = @p1
--we only want one page of data SET ROWCOUNT @pageSize
--now get the page of data from the table SELECT key FROM table WHERE whatever = @p1 AND [TableVar Identity Column] > @pageNumber * @pageSize
The algorithm works great for our needs, BUT, I noticed something a little odd about its behavior during performance testing.
In particular, when I run the query using Sql Server Management Studio, where I manually DECLARE all the variables it ends up needing only 156 reads to complete the job. When I call it from the app using ADO.NET, however, I noticed it needs 310 reads! Huh?
I looked for differences, and the only one I could determine was that ADO.NET passes the query and uses sp_executesql and passes the parameters vs. declaring and setting them statically before executing the query. I confirmed that this was the issue by manually running sp_execute SQL and seeing that it took roughly the same number of reads (274) to process the query.
Naturally, I don't want the time it takes to perfrom my query to double, but and frankly I don't understand why there would be a difference in performance. Can anyone help me track down what is going on and suggest to me how to fix the problem.
I assume that SQL Server Management Studio optimizes the execution path somehow, but I'm not sure how to gain the same benefit for my passed query. Can I enable something with hints? Is there something else going on that I should know about?
If I start a long running query running on a background thread is there a way to abort the query so that it does not continue running on SQL server?
The query would be running on SQL Server 2005 from a Windows form application using the Background worker component. So the query would have been started from the background workers DoWork event using ado.net. If the user clicks an abort button in the UI I would want the query to die so that it does not continue to use sql server resources.
I am writing a custom query to determine if a legacy table exists or not. From My CMS Server I already have all the instances I have to query and I store the name of the instance in the @Instance variable. I cannot get those stubborn ticks to work right in my query. Below I am using the IF EXISTS statement to search the metadata for the legacy table.
DECLARE @Found tinyint DECLARE @Instance varchar(100) set @Instance = 'The Instance' IF (EXISTS (SELECT a.* FROM OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI', 'Server=' + @Instance + ';UID=DBAReader;PWD=DBAReader;','SELECT * FROM [DBA].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = ''TheTable''') AS a)) SET @Found = 1 ELSE SET @Found = 0
I'm experiencing issues importing XML data using a distributed query with the following statement which is run from an XP client named WorkstationA connecting to SQL2005 SP2 ServerB, the XML data is located on ServerC.
AdHoc Queries using OpenRowSet has been enabled and verified.
The SQL Server service is running using a domain user account with permissions to read the remote files. I have logged in locally to the SQL server and verified this. It still fails even if the SQL services are running using LocalSystem.
User on Workstation A is authenticated with Integrated security (SQL Admin) and has rights to read the XML files on ServerC.
WorkStationA = SQL2005 Mgt Studio running the query ServerB = SQL2005 SP2 ServerC = XML data files
DECLARE @xml XML SELECT @xml =CONVERT(XML, bulkcolumn, 2) FROM OPENROWSET(BULK '\SERVERCSHAREPATHDATAFILE.XML', SINGLE_BLOB) AS x SELECT @xml
Results: Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot bulk load because the file "\SERVERCSHAREPATHDATAFILE.XML" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access Denied).
The query fails when it is run from Workstation A connected to SQL ServerB querying data on ServerC via a UNC. The query is succesful when it is run from the local SQL ServerB. The problem is with distributed queries. The query is succesful when the XML files are local to the SQL server including referencing them via a local UNC
I have a directory with images and a table in my DB with the path of each file. The main application allow me to create reports where I can display an image, so I was thinking to use a query like:
SELECT [ID] ,[PT_CODE] ,[FILE_PATH], CASE WHEN [FILE_PATH] IS NOT NULL THEN (SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK [FILE_PATH], SINGLE_BLOB) TT) END AS IMAGE_LOADED FROM [DB].[dbo].[TABLE_MR_FILES]But I keep getting the error:
Incorrect syntax near 'FILE_PATH'.I have try multiple combinations without luck to make the OPENROWSET read the path stored in the column [FILE_PATH]. What am I missing?
Note: I am using MSSQL 2012. I don't want to import the images into the DB just load them in the fly as needed by the report runned from the application. I have full access to the DB so if a store procedure is the solution I can go with it.
I have two tables that I am pulling data from: an item table and a sales table. Almost all of the information comes from the item table (item description, location, amount on hand). The last field wanted is Year-To-Date sales. I can pull the sales field from the sales table, which gives me all sales from the creation of the db. I need to be able to run a date variable of This Year on that sales field only. I have a date field I can reference off of in the sales table.
I have a SQL Task that updates running totals on a record inserted using a Data Flow Task. The package runs without error, but the actual row does not calculate the running totals. I suspect that the inserted record is not committed until the package completes and the SQL Task is seeing the previous record as the current. Here is the code in the SQL Task:
DECLARE @DV INT; SET @DV = (SELECT MAX(DateValue) FROM tblTG); DECLARE @PV INT; SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I've not been successful in passing a SSIS global variable to a declared parameter, but is it possible to do this:
DECLARE @DV INT; SET @DV = ?; DECLARE @PV INT; SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I have almost 50 references to these parameters in the query so a substitution would be helpful.
I am having a recurring issue that involves a stored proc using OPENROWSET to query an excel file. I used the surface area config to enable this on the server, and made sure that is still set. After an undetermined amount of time, the OPENROWSET query starts failing with this message:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error". Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I corrected this previously by restarting the SQL server, but not before I checked permissions, the excel file itself, etc, and that was the last thing to try.
I am using SQL 2005 with SP1 installed - my primary approach to tackling this issue is to install the SP2, but I did not find this bug referenced in the fixes, and was wondering if anyone else had further insight.
I have SSRS 2005 SP2 configured to work in Sharepoint integration. Everything works fine except that I am not able to programmatically change any property of report viewer web part (instance) that I have added on on home page of my sharepoint site. I can do same thing via sharepoint UI but not through program. When my programs runs it fetches all web parts been added on home page, then I need to iterate through each one and find report viewer web part. While iterating, as soon as I arrive to report viewer web part it is named as "Error web part" with error message as "Windows SharePoint Services cannot deserialize the Web Part. Check the format of the properties and try again"

The table_cat returned a null value. I ended up writing
select * from linked_server..schema.table and it did work. However, it was really slow. 56 seconds vs. less than a second for the pass through openquery.
My guess is that the problem is that the table_cat was null and this is why it is so slow. Is this correct? How do I resolve this speed issue?
I have a table with a column named measurement decimal(18,1). If the value is 2.0, I want the stored proc to return 2 but if the value is 2.5 I want the stored proc to return 2.5. So if the value after the decimal point is 0, I only want the stored proc to return the integer portion. Is there a sql function that I can use to determine what the fraction part of the decimal value is? In c#, I can use dr["measurement "].ToString().Split(".".ToCharArray())[1] to see what the value after the decimal is.
Hi,In the following query the calculator gives value 3.3 but the query returns 3.0 I need to get the decimal part also. i.e I need to get 3.3 as answer from the query. select cast(66/20 as decimal(6,2)) Need help.Thanks

Basically the parts in red work best when they use the 'or' criteria.
My problem.
I run the query together black+red and get a different result than expected. Is there a way of saying 'do the black part first and its an imperative that the red part follows those rules on the black part of the query?' eg:
IDStatus must be LIKE '' when running the black part of the query and expressemail must be like '%@%' on the black part of the query but not on red part of the query. So it doesnt matter that the expressemail must have idstatus like '' whilst having an @
I have a huge problem as mentioned in my previous queries some of my applications is using Link Server Query as "select * from sm-matrix.matrix.dbo.stage_orders" this doesn't work it gives following error:-
ODBC: Msg 0, Level 18, State 1 SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 62 generated fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process. [OLE/DB provider returned message: Unspecified error]
I understand best method to use is "select * from openquery(sm-matrix,"select * from stage_orders")" but i can't do away with above mentioned query as lot of places in application it has been using.
This was working fine till i moved to Windows 2003 from Windows 2000.
