I have a stored procedure that selects the unique Name of an item from one table.
SELECT DISTINCT ChainName from Chains
For each ChainName, there exists 0 or more StoreNames in the Stores. I want to return the result of this select as the second field in each row of the result set.
SELECT DISTINCT StoreName FROM Stores WHERE Stores.ChainName = ChainName
Each row of the result set returned by the stored procedure would contain:
ChainName, Array of StoreNames (or comma separated strings or whatever)
I am working on a SQL 6.5 application that contains several tables with text fields. I would like to write a single stored procedure that could build the READTEXT statement for the text field on the fly based on parameters I pass in for the table name, column name, etc.
The procedure I want to write would look something like:
Pretty as this looks, if you run this code, you will find that it doesn't work. The EXECUTE statement will not allow you to use a variable in the statement that is not declared as part of the statement. However, if I declare the variable as part of the EXECUTE statement, it is not recognized at compile time and I get an error when I create the stored procedure.
Is this the brick wall it seems to be, or am I missing something obvious here? I am using Access 97 as my front end, if that helps at all. Any insight would be appreciated!
hi, has anyone ever tried saving the result of 'readtext' (ofcourse, not the entire text - just some of it usnig offsets in the readtext as : readtext texttab.textcolumn @ptr 0 100 ) into a 'varchar' variable ? if so, can you give me an example pls ?
In my stored procedure I need to do a WRITETEXT on some text data which is being returned from a READTEXT on other text data. I thought that this sort of thing would work:
DECLARE @comment varbinary(16) DECLARE @comment_len int DECLARE @comment_new varbinary(16) ... SET @comment = TEXTPTR(atextcolumn) from atable where ... SET @comment_len = DATALENGTH(atextcolumn) from atable where ... SET @comment_new = TEXTPTR(anothertextcolumn) from anothertable where ...
Using ado, the _CommandPtr::Execute method returns a recordset. When calling a storedproc with this method, does the 'return' statement return the value in a recordset ?
I have calling a stored procedure that returns two values, and I want to catch these values and to store them into a variable.
Here is a piece of my SP inside SQL Server that shows the returned values:
… SELECT @Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY() SELECT @Id AS user_id SELECT 1 AS Value END GO
In my aspx page I am trying to call the first value like this:
Dim nID CmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@RETURN_VALUE", SqlDbType.bigint, 8, "user_id")) CmdInsert.Parameters("@RETURN_VALUE").Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue CmdInsert.Parameters("@RETURN_VALUE").Value = nID
And to check if the right value is returned I use:
strConnection.open() cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery 'Set the value of a textbox ident.text = nID strConnection.close()
But now no value appears in the textbox, How can I achieve it? What is wrong?
I have a situation where I need two values (both are integers) returned from a stored procedure. (SQL 2000)
Right now, I use the statement "return @@Identity" for a single value, but there is another variable assigned in the procedure, @NewCounselingRecordID that I need to pass back to the calling class method.
I was thinking of concatenating the two values as a string and parsing them out after they are passed back to the calling method. It would look something like "21:17", with the colon character acting as a delimiter.
However, I feel this solution is kludgy. Is there a more correct way to accomplish this?
I am trying to return all the names of employees and their managers
this query returns all the employees except for 1
SELECT E.FNAME,E.LNAME,M.FNAME,M.LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE E,EMPLOYEE M WHERE E.SUPERSSN=M.SSN
the one that isn't returned has a null SUPERSSN, but when I add in:
OR E.SUPERSSN IS NULL
it returns a row with the name of the employee whose SUPERSSN is null 8 times (where each time the M.FNAME,M.LNAME are other employee names)
How do I ammend the first query to return each employee and their respective manager once, the employee without a manager having null values for the manager name columns?
I am new to SQL and I am trouble-shooting a problem with a home-grown app someone else wrote using PERL. It has a web interface with names of boards. I found the program where i need to add the board names into and did that. The new board names show up in the drop-down list in the Web page for the app. Alerts are sent to the new board names and show up on the new boards. Users are granted access to the new boards and they can clear items off the new boards. Yet when i try to use a report function for the new boards i added, nothing is returned. I even ran a simple SQl select statement specifying the new board names and nothing is returned. The older board names, some of which i added myself, return values. I don't know what is going on. Any help is appreciated.
How do I ensure that DISTINCT values of r.GPositionID are returned from the below??
Code Snippet SELECT CommentImage AS ViewComment,r.GPositionID,GCustodian,GCustodianAccount,GAssetType FROM @GResults r LEFT OUTER JOIN ReconComments cm ON cm.GPositionID = r.GPositionID WHERE r.GPositionID NOT IN (SELECT g.GPositionID FROM ReconGCrossReference g) ORDER BY GCustodian, GCustodianAccount, GAssetType;
I have two tables. Both tables have a FirstName and a LastName field. I can return the results where (LastName = LastName) and (FirstName = FirstName). However in one table some of the FirstName values are shortened ie Pat is P etc. Is there some way (its prob using LIKE but i can't get it right) I can write the below query so that it returns values where the first letter of FirstName in one table equals the first letter of FirstName in the second table.
SELECT tbl2.FirstName, tbl2.LastName, SALARY.[Employee No] FROM SALARY INNER JOIN tbl1 ON (SALARY.LastName = tbl2.LastName) AND (SALARY.FirstName = tbl2.FirstName)
I want the following query to return a row even when table 'X' is empty. How would I do this? SELECT TOP 1 @Var1, @Var2, @Var3 from X The parameters @Var1, @Var2 and @Var3 are passed to the stored procedure in which the above query is included. When table is empty, it reurn nothing. It only return a row when table is not empty.
SELECT @PollQuestion = (SELECT PollQuestion FROM Polls WHERE PollID = @PollID)
SELECT @PollOptions = (SELECT [Option] FROM PollOPtions WHERE PollID = @PollID)
*SELECT @PollPercentages = (SELECT [Option], COUNT([Option]) As Num_Votes FROM Votes WHERE PollID = 1 GROUP BY [Option])
The final part(*) of this SQL will return more than one value, so is it possible for me to return all that information in one varaible with one SELECT query?? Or would I need to use a loop and query a value at a time, and store it into a delimited string?
Hello Group I am new to stored procedure and I need some assistants. I am using the following stored procedure and I would like the return the fldPassword and fldFullName values. Both fields are in the same table. What I am trying to do is display the uses full name (i.e. Welcome <full Name>) and with the password I want to check that the password is not the default password if it is then do a redirect to the change password page. Thank you Michael

I've search around quite extensively on the net and found a few examples that touch on this subject, but the only definitive one that seemed to solve this problem used a temp table in the UDF, which, to my knowledge, is impossible...
The problem is thus: I want to create either a stored procedure or a user defined function to return a list of values I can intersperse to use in a WHERE AccountID IN (<values>). This way, if someone were to create a new stored procedure and they wanted to either only select accounts with those IDs or perform a NOT IN and use it to filter.
The Solution I'm attempting: My idea is best represented in psuedo-code: - Create a Function that stores all account Ids we relate to a particular account type, in this case, let's say accountsids "100, 101, 102, 407" are all accounts we want to consider "cash". - The function would look something like: CREATE FUNCTION CashAccountIDs()
RETURNS TABLE
AS
BEGIN DECLARE TABLE @t1 (account INT) INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (100) INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (101) INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (102) INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (407) RETURN @t1 END
Then I could call this function by doing something such as:
SELECT * FROM Accounts WHERE AccountId IN (dbo.CashAccountIds())
I would presumably do this for other collections of accounts as well, so that I would end up with say 5 functions I could call to filter various types of accounts.
Not too certain if I am approaching this the correct way or not, I've been receiving a myriad of errors trying different methods. If I use the function above it tells me "Must declare @t1", so I modified it so @t1 is declared in the RETURNS statement, and the syntax checks then work, but when I attempt to save the function it tells me "Cannot perform alter on fn_cashaccountids because it is an incompatible object type"
(The code I use to generate this error is: CREATE FUNCTION fn_cashaccountids ()
RETURNS @t1 TABLE (i INT)
AS
BEGIN INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (100) RETURN END
Hopefully I've provided enough but not too much info to sift through, it seems to me this would be something encountered a bit before.
Hi, I am trying to get the combination of results in my stored procedure, I am not getting what I need. Following are the things which I need to return from my stored proc. 1. I need to select distinct categories and their record count 2. I also need to select the records from the table. 3. Need to send both category, record counts and records. First is it possible in stored procedure? Following is helpful information.
Data in tables looks like this. prod id, prod_name, prod_category 1, T shirts, Mens Apparel 2 , Shirts, Mens Apparel 3 , Pants , Mens Apparel 4, Tops , Women Wear 5, Bangles, Women Wear
And in User Interface I need to show like this.
Mens Apparel (3) 1 T Shirts 2 Shirts 3 Pants
Women Wear (2) 4 Tops 5 Bangles
Please help me if there is any way to return the complete data structure using stored procedure. If I do something in java code, I can get this, but I am trying to get directly from stored procedure only.
I have a small problem with a join clause, because i need to return all values from my table BL:
my code is:
SELECT cast(0 as bit) as 'Escolha',data, contado , ollocal ,origem, ousrdata,ousrhora FROM ( SELECT noconta,banco, u_area FROM BL
[code]....
In fact, i need to return 2 accounts (16,35) - x.NOCONTA IN (16,35), but I know that the problem is on the WHERE clause.How can do that, because i need all the condition on WHERE clause regarding my table OL, but also, i need to return my two accounts (16,35).
I need a query to return two values. One will be the total units and the other will be total unique units. See exmaple data below. It does not have to be one query. This will be in SP, so I can keep it seperate if I have to.
Total Units = 7 - easy to do by using count() Total unique units = 4 - I cannot use group by as it would return multiple results for each unit, which is not what we want.
I'm working on a query that is asking to return data on dependents which a person can have 0-many, in a single row but sep columns. The dependent data I need to include are Dep First Name, Dep Last Name, Dep Relationship.
I have created a function to return values, which works fine, but I can't do calculations in it.
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[tf_Asset_Portfolio](@deal_id int, @as_of_date datetime) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN ( SELECT DISTINCT dbo.Assets.issue_id, SUM(DISTINCT dbo.Assets.par_amount) AS par_amount, SUM(DISTINCT dbo.Assets.par_amount) AS market_value FROM dbo.Issue INNER JOIN dbo.Assets ON dbo.Issue.issue_id = dbo.Assets.issue_id INNER JOIN dbo.Issuer_Rating_History ON dbo.Issue.issuer_id = dbo.Issuer_Rating_History.issuer_id WHERE (dbo.Issuer_Rating_History.as_of_date <= @as_of_date) GROUP BY ALL dbo.Assets.issue_id, dbo.Assets.deal_id, dbo.Issue.default_date HAVING (dbo.Assets.deal_id = @deal_id) )
I need to do calculations on market value based on the default date. If default date isn't specified then it should be 100% of par amount. If default date is less than one year ago - 65% of the par_amount. If default date is one or more years ago - 0. I have no idea about how to do this and everything I try wont work. I created another function to do the calculations and this seems to work, but it only does one record instead of all of them.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.tf_Asset_Portfolio2 (@deal_id int, @as_of_date datetime) RETURNS @Market TABLE (issue_id int, par_amount money, market_value money) AS BEGIN DECLARE @ReturnDate datetime DECLARE @DD datetime DECLARE @PA money DECLARE @MV money DECLARE @ID int DECLARE @DateD int
SELECT TOP 1 @ReturnDate = LAST_BATCH FROM master..sysprocesses WHERE SPId = @@SPID
SELECT @ID = issue_id FROM Assets WHERE Assets.deal_id = @deal_id SELECT @PA = SUM(DISTINCT par_amount) FROM Assets WHERE Assets.issue_id = @ID AND Assets.deal_id = @deal_id SELECT @DD = default_date FROM Issue WHERE Issue.issue_id = @ID
SET @DateD = DateDiff("yyyy", @DD, @ReturnDate)
If @DD = Null BEGIN SET @MV = @PA END Else If @DD > @ReturnDate BEGIN SET @MV = @PA END Else If @DateD < 1 BEGIN SET @MV = @PA * .65 END Else If @DateD >= 1 BEGIN SET @MV = 0 END
insert into @Market (issue_id, par_amount, market_value) values (@ID,@PA,@MV)
RETURN END
I need to combine the functionality of being able to return mutliple records that isn't in the 2nd function and being able to calculate the market value which isn't in the first one. Please help. Thank you in advance.
I have a quick question for you about SQL stored procedures. If I'min a stored procedure and want to call another stored procedure andreturn values from the second stored procedure what is the procedure?I know you do the following to run the second stored procedure and passin any parameters:EXEC GetAuthorBooks @AuthorIDSo if I wanted the GetAuthorBooks to return all the books for an authorand then populate a temp table in the original stored procedure, how doI return those records, and populate the temp table?What do I have to add to this line: EXEC GetAuthorBooks @AuthorID?
I have a table. In the table I have different types of mailingaddresses. The addresses are linked by and ID. ex,addresses per ID 1ID address1 add21 add31 add4distinct Addresses in tableID address1 add21 add31 add4What I am trying to figure out is if this is possible. Is it possibleto figure out some how with a query that in the above example ID 1is missing add1. I am trying to populate a dropdown list in my codewith just the addresses that are left from the distinct list. I trieddoing an intersect something like this but that did not seem to work.SELECT typeFROM address_demoINTERSECTSELECT typeFROM address_demo AS address_demo_1WHERE progid = '12954892'I am wondering if I am moving in the right direction or if this is evenpossible......Thanks
