Problems With Sp_executesql - Syntax Errors
Jun 7, 2005
I tried doing a search on the forums, but it kept giving me the message: XXX is used too often and is excluded from your search
Anyway, here is the code:
Code:
DECLARE @Test nVarchar(10)
DECLARE @Test1 nVarchar(40)
SET @Test = N'''1'',''3'',''4'''
SET @Test1 = N'select * from table1 where column1 in (' + @Test + ')'
EXEC sp_executesql @Test1
If I put it in a "Begin Transaction" block
there is a syntax error near the ( in the set @Test1 statement.
If I leave it out of a "Begin Transaction" Block,
The syntax error is:
Server: Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Unclosed quotation mark before the character string ''.
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near ''.

Does anyone know the technical reason for why sp_executesql uses the Nprefix before the string that is passed?For example:sp_executesql N'USE Northwind'Thanks!

I keep receiving the following error whenever I try and call this function to update my database.
The code was working before, all I added was an extra field to update.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'WHERE'
Public Sub MasterList_Update(sender As Object, e As DataListCommandEventArgs)
Dim strProjectName, txtProjectDescription, intProjectID, strProjectState as String

Hi, i'm writing this stored procedure -
Code Snippet

Originally i just ran this sql from C# and it worked, obviously added the @ to the variables but it's basically the same.
Any ideas??

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?

Hi all,
I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.
Thanks in advance,

I recently updated the datatype of a sproc parameter from bit to tinyint. When I executed the sproc with the updated parameters the sproc appeared to succeed and returned "1 row(s) affected" in the console. However, the update triggered by the sproc did not actually work.
The table column was a bit which only allows 0 or 1 and the sproc was passing a value of 2 so the table was rejecting this value. However, the sproc did not return an error and appeared to return success. So is there a way to configure the database or sproc to return an error message when this type of error occurs?

I have a parent package that calls child packages inside a For Each container. When I debug/run the parent package (from VS), I get the following error message: Warning: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (3) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
It appears to be failing while executing the child package. However, the logs (via the "progress" tab) for both the parent package and the child package show no errors other than the one listed above (and that shows in the parent package log). The child package appears to validate completely without error (all components are green and no error messages in the log). I turned on SSIS logging to a text file and see nothing in there either.
If I bump up the MaximumErrorCount in the parent package and in the Execute Package Task that calls the child package to 4 (to go one above the error count indicated in the message above), the whole thing executes sucessfully. I don't want to leave the Max Error Count set like this. Is there something I am missing? For example are there errors that do not get logged by default? I get some warnings, do a certain number of warnings equal an error?
Thanks,
Lee

Why does the following call to a stored procedure get me this error:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'CONVERT'.
Code Snippet
EXECUTE OpenInvoiceItemSP_RAM CONVERT(DATETIME,'01-01-2008'), CONVERT(DATETIME,'04/30/2008') , 1,'81350'
The stored procedure accepts two datetime parameters, followed by an INT and a varchar(10) in that order.
I can't find anything wrong in the syntax for CONVERT or any nearby items.
Help me please. Thank you.

I have been trying to get my dynamic query to work with sp_executesql and I cant seem to figure out this one issue.DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(1000)SET @SQL = N'WITH Data AS(SELECT Id, Username, FirstName, LastName, Email, LastLogin, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY @SortExpression) AS RowNumber FROM Users) SELECT * FROM Data WHERE RowNumber BETWEEN @Between1 AND @Between2'EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL, N'@SortExpression VARCHAR(50), @Between1 INT, @Between2 INT', @SortExpression = 'Email', @Between1 = 1, @Between2 = 10As you can see, the data should get sorted by the value of @SortExpression. However thats not the case. The Data does not get sorted at all no matter that i pass in as the value of @SortExpression.I can't seem to figure out why its not working.

What is wrong in this query..how can I make it to work
DECLARE @strSQL nVarchar(4000)
DECLARE @Name VArchar(100)
--SET @Name = '''sysdatabase'',''sysindexes'''
SET @Name = ''sysdatabase''
SET @strSQL = 'SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects WITH (NOLOCK) WHERE Name IN (@prmName)'
EXECUTE dbo.sp_executesql @strSQL,
N'@prmName varchar(100)',
@prmName= @Name
Note : I do not want to replace the query as
SET @strSQL = 'SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE Name IN ' + @Name + ')' , because my queryplan changes if I do this.
Any work around or anything you guys suggest ..

I'm having trouble working out why the sp_executesql procedure is not replacing my place holders with the value assigned to it.
Some quick info: I'm running the routine from the commandline through OSQL on a box that has MSSQL2000 enterprise installed. The code is sent to a MSSQL2005 box.
I've noticed one dumb thing I've done and that is making the nvarchar variable @db_name a different size to the one declared in the sp_executesql command. But I'm not sure if that is the problem. It throws a @db_name is not a database error etc.
Snippet that is not working:
declare @db_name varchar(80)
declare @sql_command nvarchar(1500)-- for our dynamic sql command within the cursor loop.

Hi
I am trying to execute sp_executesql dynamically. What I am trying to do is read all the user tables using a cursor build sql statement and using
EXEC sp_execute sqlstmt.
Here is piece of code.
DECLARE C1 CURSOR FOR SELECT NAME FROM SYSOBJECTS WHERE XTYPE='U'
OPEN c1
FETCH NEXT FROM C1 INTO @v_TableName
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @v_SQL= 'DROP TABLE ' + @v_TableName

CLOSE c1
DEALLOCATE C1
Please let me know where I am doing wrong.

I have a string which I want to pass into an IF statement. Here's what I have:
declare @sumclause varchar(4000)
set @sumclause = '(select count(*) from Participants where Weeks_Left<=8 or CDE_ACTV=''24'''
IF cast(@sumclause as int)>0
BEGIN
...
END
I'm first putting it in a string because I'm passing another string into it which can't be seen above.
As you can see, I tried casting it since it had a problem with computing a string as an int, but it still doesn't work. Help?

Hi There
Is a table variable invalid for sp_executesql ?
I am trying the following:
SELECT @SQL = N'WAITFOR
(RECEIVE message_body, conversation_handle, message_type_name, message_sequence_number, conversation_group_id FROM ' + @callingQueue + ' INTO @msgTable WHERE conversation_group_id = '
+ CAST(@conversationGroup AS char) + '), TIMEOUT 2000'
EXEC sp_executesql @SQL, N'@msgTable TABLE output', @msgTable out
I get the following message:
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure CENTRAL_Queue_Processor, Line 92
Must declare the scalar variable "@msgTable".
I have decalred the variable but it is a table variable, this leadds me to believe sp_execute sql only supports scalar varibles not table variables, BOL does not say yes or no in this respect.
Can this be done?
Thanx

Forgive the noob question, but i'm still learning SQL everyday and was wondering which of the following is faster? I'm just gonna post parts of the SELECT statement that i've made changes to:
INNER JOIN Facilities f ON e.Facility = f.FacilityID AND f.Name = @FacilityName
OR
WHERE f.Name = @FacilityName
My question is whether or not the query runs faster if i put the condition within the JOIN line as opposed to putting in the WHERE line? Both ways seems to return the same results but the time difference between methods is staggering? Putting the condition within the JOIN line makes the query run about 3 times faster?
Again, forgive my lack of understanding, but could someone agree or disagree and give me the cliff-notes version of why or why not?
Thanks!

Ok I am tying to convert access syntax to Sql syntax to put it in a stored procedure or view..
Here is the part that I need to convert:
SELECT [2007_hours].proj_name, [2007_hours].task_name, [2007_hours].Employee,
IIf(Mid([task_name],1,3)='PTO','PTO_Holiday',
IIf(Mid([task_name],1,7)='Holiday','PTO_Holiday',
IIf(Mid([proj_name],1,9) In ('9900-2831','9900-2788'),'II Internal',
IIf(Mid([proj_name],1,9)='9900-2787','Sales',
IIf(Mid([proj_name],1,9)='9910-2799','Sales',
IIf(Mid([proj_name],1,9)='9920-2791','Sales',
)
)
)
)
) AS timeType, Sum([2007_hours].Hours) AS SumOfHours
from................
how can you convert it to sql syntax
I need to have a nested If statment which I can't do in sql (in sql I have to have select and from Together for example ( I can't do this in sql):
select ID, FName, LName
if(SUBSTRING(FirstName, 1, 4)= 'Mike')
Begin
Replace(FirstNam,'Mike','MikeTest')
if(SUBSTRING(LastName, 1, 4)= 'Kong')
Begin
Replace(LastNam,'Kong,'KongTest')
if(SUBSTRING(Address, 1, 4)= '1245')
Begin
.........
End
End
end
Case Statement might be the solution but i could not do it.
Your input will be appreciated
Thank you

Hello,
I am using sp_executesql this to pass parameter to sql string and I am seeing deadlock between sp_prepexec which does UPDATE with another UPDATE done by another process. When it comes to speed and deadlock, would you recomand not using sp_executesql?

In out web application it happens very rarely that same query gets executed more than once meaning that sp_executesql is degrading performance. Does anyone know a way to tell ADO.NET to stop encapsulating queries in sp_executesql? Thank you.

RETURN 0 ENDThe @sql string evaluates to:select title, notes from pubs..titles where title LIKE '%@x1%' OR notes like '%@x1%'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------But this works: BEGIN FETCH NEXT FROM keyword_cursor into @1
SELECT @sql = @sql + 'where title LIKE ''%''+ @x1 + ''%'' OR notes like ''%'' + @x1 + ''%'''
SELECT @paramlist = '@x1 nvarchar(200)' print @sql EXEC sp_executesql @sql, @paramlist, @1
RETURN 0 ENDThe @sql string evaluates to:select title, notes from pubs..titles where title LIKE '%'+ @x1 + '%' OR notes like '%' + @x1 + '%'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I just don't get it ?? Doesn't sp_executesql just replaces the @x1 with @1?

I try to write query that use sp_executesql to query data by Like operation with 1 parameter like below:
execute sp_executesql N'SELECT DISTINCT au_id,
au_lname,au_fname
FROM authors
WHERE au_lname LIKE @au_lname
',
N'@au_lname nVarChar',
@au_lname = N'%Cas%'
but It return all rows regardless of changing condition to any value.
But if i don't use sp_executesql like below:
SELECT DISTINCT au_id,
au_lname,au_fname
FROM authors
WHERE au_lname LIKE N'%Cas%'
It's correct!
Can anyone tell me why?
Thanks

I have this code:
declare @a nvarchar(300), @camp nvarchar(15)
select @camp = camp from ref_activtot_paracnet where tip = 16011
set @a = 'select top 1 '+@camp+' from paracnet where datacalc = ''1/1/2005'''
exec sp_executesql @a
How can I store the value returned by the exec sp_executesql statement into a variable?
