I am trying to do a proof of concept on a simple sql statement, but it doesn't work. Am I doing it wrong, or is this not possible....
Table: tblItems
field: account varchar(20)
In Query Analyzer:
DECLARE @acct varchar(20)
SET @acct = '457760,123456'
SELECT account from tblaccount where account in (@acct)
Result:
0 Rows
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Brian
Expected
457760
is it possible to assign the results of the qry to the 2 variables?
Declare @a Integer
Declare @b Integer
SELECT A, B from myTable
I'm getting the error "No recepient is specified".
I have set up a dataflow from a select statement into a record set, then have that dataflow point to a ForEach group with a mail task in it. I have set up variables for the username and subjectline. So in the mail task I have no value in the To: line because I specify an "http://www.sqlis.com/59.aspx">http://www.sqlis.com/59.aspx exactly.
I couldn't figure out how to included screen shots.
Any ideas?

I am trying to use two variables in my SQL statement to query an access database and then pass the results to a datagrid. Nothing shows up in my datagrid. I think that the syntax on my SQL statement is wrong. I am really not sure how to embed the variables, especially since there are two. I really need help with this, it is for work. The code is posted below. Thanks.

The below code connects to a Teradata table and downloads the record set into my excel spreadsheet. No problem. The issue is: using a WHERE clause in the SQL statementI have a form with three variables on the form, (one is a date field and requires a range; (1) DateFrom to DateTo), (2) StatusX and (3) ErrorTypeX. I need to use any combination of these variables to retrieve the desired record set. i.e. variables 1 and 2, or 2 and 3, or 1 and 3 etc. or none of the variables which would return all records.how to set up the variables in the SQL statement?

Hi Guys, I am trying to manipulate an SQL statement based on the return from a menu with auto postback enabled.Simply I am working with dates, so I will declare variables for today, next week, last week and so on.How do I then use this in the SQL? I assumed that if I declared the following Dim my_today As String = Format(Date.Now(), "dd/MMM/yyyy")Then in the SQL I used SELECT * FROM my_table item_date = @my_todayI would get a result, but I get an error. What is the right way to do this? Many thanksSteve

I'm trying to execute an update statement in a stored procedure that includes a variable for a column and a variable for a conditional constraint. For example I want to execute the following UPDATE, but using variables:
Update table set flagcode = 'A' where Field1 < 100
the field flagcode is a varchar and the field Field1 is an int
This basically how I have my code set up:
declare @flag as varchar(20)
declare @lowrange as varchar(20)
set @flag = 'A'
set @thefield = 'Field1'
exec('update table set Flagcode = ' + @flag + ' where '+@thefield+' < 100')
I get the error:
"Server: Msg 207, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Invalid column name 'A'."
Please help T-SQL Guru's. You're my only hope.

I have a cursor that goes through a table with the names of all the database in my server. So for each fetch, the cursor gets the name of a database and assign it to a variable, @databaseName, and try to do some queries from that database by using the command "USE @databaseName". But "USE" doesn't take the variable @databaseName; it is expecting a database name (i.e. USE master).
Here is my code:
Declare @databaseName varchar(50)
Declare c_getDatabaseName CURSOR for SELECT name from tblDatabases
OPEN c_getDatabaseName
FETCH NEXT from c_getDatabaseName into @databaseName
While @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
[Code] ....
How to get USE to take the variable value ?

I am new to scripting in general and I've run into an issue when attempting to write a VB variable to a database table in SQL Express. I am trying to record the value of the variable to the db, but it does not appear that the value is being passed to SQL. If I hard code the values in the SQL statement it works fine. Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong accomplish this? My code is below. Thanks in advance.
file.aspx
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:SqlConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Table]"
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [Table] (field1, field2) VALUES (& variable1 &, & variable2 &);" >
</asp:SqlDataSource>

Protected Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button.Click
Dim variable1 As String = FileUpload.FileName
Dim variable2 As String = Date.Now
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath("~/directory/)

Try
SqlDataSource.Insert()
FileUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(path & _

Hi!
I need a stored procedure with this basic setup:
CREATE PROCEDURE test
@Type int
AS
SELECT *
FROM
Cards
WHERE
CASE @Type = 1111 THEN CardType = 1111 ELSE CardType = 2222 END
GO
I know that the part after WHERE is wrong. But what I would like to achieve is this:
if the @type variable equals 1111 then get alla the rows with that value in the CardType-column. The same if @type = 2222, and if @type is any other value, then choose all rows regardles of the CardType value.
How can this be done?
Thanks!

Hi gurus,I just started to look at a very slow-running SQL statementgenerated by an application (Siebel). I spooled the SQL from theapplication, replaced the bind variables by their values, and tunedfrom the Query Analyser. But after awhile, I realized that thestatement using bind variables and the same statement using the valuesinstead of the bind variables often have completely differentexecution plans! Is that normal? Can someone tell me how the SQLServer treats bind variables. Don't worry about being too technical,I'm an Oracle DBA/developer.ThanxDaniel

Hi.
I was wondering if I could use SELECT INTO to put my data into variables.
I'm coding in VB using Visual Web Developer.
Basically, I want to do this:
SELECT data3, data4 INTO variable1, variable 2 FROM table WHERE data1= textbox1.text, data2 = textbox2.text
I am pulling data based on a selection of name (data1) and date (data2).
Thanks!
I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian
View 5 Replies View RelatedOk 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.

I have the query below (running okay):

The results are just as I need:

Hi I'm a n00b at ASP.Net and C# but the company I work for requires me to know this and develop their website using these languages.
Anyway I've been doing pretty good so far I got the page looking as it should etc and databases all set up, now I've hit my first real problem... I am using Visual Studio 2005 and in the Web Developer section. I want to make a SELECT query using the <asp:LoginName> control as the where clause.
e.g. if admin logs in there is a welcome message : Welcome Admin now I want to use the 'Admin' <asp:LoginName> as the SELECT in my query i.e. SELECT * FROM tbla WHERE ([fldCustomerCode] = 'LoginName' )
I was just really wondering if that is in the .aspx file or the aspx.cs code behind file?
Thanks for any help given
Stored procedure retrieves a single row from a single table... Based on the specific values in 4 different columns, different branch actions are taken using 4 nested IF statements.
The question is, what is more efficient: storing column values in 4 variables and then evaluting each of them, or executing the same query 4 times?
Scenario A:
DECLARE @var1 char(20), @var2 char(20), @var3 char(20), @var4 char(20)
SELECT @var1 = col1, @var2 = col2, @var3 = col3, @var4 = col4
FROM theTable
WHERE rid = 12345
IF @var1 = 1
...
ELSE IF @var2 = 2
...
ELSE IF @var3 = 3
... etc.
---------------
Scenario B:
IF (SELECT col1 FROM theTable WHERE rid = 12345) = 1
...
ELSE IF (SELECT col2 FROM theTable WHERE rid = 12345) = 2
...
ELSE IF (SELECT col3 FROM theTable WHERE rid = 12345) = 3
... etc.
--------
Scenario A or B? Please advise...
TIA,
Alex
Is there a way to write an insert where the values you're inserting depend on another value in the row. Here is an example of pseudo-code that hopefully demonstrates what I'm tryihg to do:
declare @k1 varchar(100)
declare @k2 varchar(100)
declare @k3 varchar(100)
insert into tbl2
select
field1,
field2,
field3,
@k1=(select sm from tbl3 where mm=field1),
@k2=(select sm from tbl3 where mm=@k1),
@k3=(select sm from tbl3 where mm=@k2)
from
tbl1
where
blah= blahblah and
bldfddf = dfaljk
My main focus is using the variables @k1 - @k2 in the where part of subsequent subqueries in the select statement. I haven't been able to get this to work, but I thought maybe something like it would work. I'd like to do this in one statement rather than using a cursor or loop. I'm also trying to avoid functions. Any help would be appreciated.
I have problems to place my variable into the select statement.
DECLARE @DB_NAME varchar(64)

FETCH NEXT FROM MR_ReqPro_DB_cursor
INTO @DB_NAME
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
print @DB_NAME; --works fine
Select NAME, FILEDIRECTORY FROM @DB_NAME.MR_ReqPro.RQDOCUMENTS WHERE (FILEDIRECTORY LIKE '%\%');
FETCH NEXT FROM MR_ReqPro_DB_cursor INTO @DB_NAME
END
CLOSE MR_ReqPro_DB_cursor
DEALLOCATE MR_ReqPro_DB_cursor
GO

Hi
I am trying to include a string variable in a Select Statement.
My problem is that when I code with the user name hard coated in the SQL Statement it works fine (see below:)
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT UserPswd, StudioID, StudioCode FROM Users WHERE UserName = 'jdoe' " But when I try to use the String variable I get an error (See below):
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT UserPswd, StudioID, StudioCode FROM Users WHERE UserName = " & StrUserName
I know there must be something wrong with my syntax ??
Thanks

Hello,
Is there a way to assign multiple variables to one select statement as in the following example?
DECLARE @FirstName VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @MiddleName VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @LastName VARCHAR(100)
@FirstName, @MiddleName, @LastName = SELECT FirstName, MiddleName, LastName FROM USERS WHERE username='UniqueUserName'
I don't like having to use one select statement for each variable I need to pull from a query. This is in reference to a stored procedure.
Thank you!

Hi
I've tried declaring and setting variables in my sql statement and then trying to use them instead of defining a column directly - sorry quite hard to explain, i'll do a simple example
eg
DECLARE @column
DECLARE @value
SET @column = 'col1'
SET @value = 'bloggs'
Select * FROM table1 WHERE @column = @value
It keeps returning no results even though i've tried
Select * FROM table1 WHERE col1 = 'bloggs' -- which returns results
I realise its the column which is not being selected, but there must be a way by using a variable?
thanks
Hi,
I think I'm just braindead or simply thick...since this shouldn't be that hard, but I'm stumped right now.
So, I'm trying to retrieve from a table, with a sql stored procedure with the sql like
"select height, width, depth from products where id=@idinput"
OK, so this part is easy, but if I wanted to say, return this to my code and assign height to a variable Ht, width to Wd and depth to Dp, how could I do that?
This is what I've got so far...
[code]
cmdSelect = New SqlCommand( "GetProd", connstr )
cmdSelect.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
dbcon.Open()
dbcon.Close()
[/code]
The main prob is just what to connect this record to in order to access the individual fields.
Thx :)
