Return Single Value
Dec 3, 2006
Hello,
I created a stored procedure which selects a value according to
ContentId.
I know that will be only one value returned or none.
So if a record is found I want to return the string contained in
ContentHtml.
Else I want to return the string "NotFound"
Could somebody help me out with this?
Here is my present stored procedure:
-- Specifies the SQL-92 equals compliant behavior
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
-- Specifies the SQL-92 quotation mark rules
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
-- Alter procedure
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[by27_Content_GetContent]
-- Define the procedure parameters
@ContentName NVARCHAR(100),
@ContentCulture NVARCHAR(5)
AS
-- Prevent extra result sets from interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
-- Declare and define ContentId
DECLARE @ContentId UNIQUEIDENTIFIER;
SELECT @ContentId = ContentId FROM dbo.by27_Content WHERE ContentName =
@ContentName
-- Check if ContentId is Not Null
IF @ContentId IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
-- Select localized content from by27_ContentLocalized
SELECT dbo.by27_ContentLocalized.ContentHtml
FROM dbo.by27_Content
INNER JOIN dbo.by27_ContentLocalized
ON dbo.by27_Content.ContentId =
dbo.by27_ContentLocalized.ContentId
WHERE (dbo.by27_ContentLocalized.ContentCulture = @ContentCulture
AND dbo.by27_Content.ContentName = @ContentName);
END
-- Create procedure
GO
Thanks,
Miguel

Just messing about with a silly little problem in SQL which has me stumped!
The problem goes like this;
There are lots of books.
There are lots of authors.
Every book has atleast one author (primary author).
Some books have a secondary author too!
Books(BookId, BookName)
Authors(AuthorId, AuthorName)
BookAuth(BookId, AuthorId, PrimaryAuth)
Where primary auth is a bit field; 1 denotes primary, 0 denotes secondary.
The problem is trying to return a single line per book - something like
BookNamePrimary AuthorSecondary Author
Book 1DaveNULL
Book 2JohnDave
Book 3LauraJohn
The following code is the little test script I've written which you may wish to utilise
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U' AND name = 'Books') BEGIN
DROP TABLE Books
END
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U' AND name = 'Authors') BEGIN
DROP TABLE Authors
END
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U' AND name = 'BookAuth') BEGIN
DROP TABLE BookAuth
END
CREATE TABLE Books (bookid int, bookname varchar(50))
CREATE TABLE Authors (authorid int, authorname varchar(50) )
CREATE TABLE BookAuth (authorid int, bookid int, primaryauth bit)
GO
INSERT INTO Books
SELECT 1, 'MS Access Book'UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'Microsoft Excel for Peanuts' UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 'Some Autobiography'UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 'SQL for Beginners'UNION ALL
SELECT 5, 'Advanced T-SQL'UNION ALL
SELECT 6, 'I can''t think of another title'
INSERT INTO Authors
SELECT 1, 'Dave'UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'Steve'UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 'John'UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 'Joanne'UNION ALL
SELECT 5, 'Christina'UNION ALL
SELECT 6, 'Alex'
INSERT INTO BookAuth
SELECT 1,1,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 2,1,0 UNION ALL
SELECT 1,2,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 1,3,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 3,3,0 UNION ALL
SELECT 4,4,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 4,5,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 5,6,1 UNION ALL
SELECT 6,6,0
SELECT * FROM bookauth
DROP TABLE Books
DROP TABLE Authors
DROP TABLE BookAuth
It should be so easy - but I can't get it so far! :D

I am have stored procedure that accepts one parameter and returns a single value
The sp works fine.
My question is how do I set the c# webpage to return the single value.
I need a specific example of how to code.
this is how the code should work.
A blank form is loaded, when the user clicks submit I need the code to pull the Login name from the text box and check to see if it exist. I have the sp working the way I need it to. But I can figure how to pull the single value into a variable in the code behind.
I am using dataset elsewhere on the site, so I created a ds the calls the sp. Can it work this way?
thanks,

I have two tables
TermID, Term
1--- Abc
2--- Test
4--- Tunic
and
TermID, RelatedTermID
1 --- 2
1--- 4
2--- 4
I need to get back something like this
TermID, Term, RelatedTermsInformation
1--- test--- test,tunic#1,4
that above was my solution, get the relatedterms information and comma separate, and then put a # and get all the ids comma separate them and then put the in one field. then I can later parse it in the client
this does not seem like a very good solution ( or is it?)
If posible it would be nice to get something like this
TermID, Term, RelatedTermsInformation
1 test RelatedTermsTwoDimentionalArray
but I am not sure how this idea could be implemented using the capabilities of SQL.
my other option is have the client make one call to the database to get the terms and then lots of another calls to get the relatedTerms, but that will mean one trip to the DB for the list term, and one call for every single term found.
any ideas in how to make this better ?

I would like to know if it's possible to return a single record by joining the tables below. [Persons]
PersonID [int] | PageViewed [int]
=============== =================
1 10
2 5
3 2
4 12
[PersonNames] - PersonID JOINS Persons.PersonID
PersonID [int] | NameID [int] | PersonName [nvarchar] | PopularVotes [int]
=============== ============== ======================= ===================
1 1 Samantha Brown 5
1 2 Samantha Green 10
2 3 Richard T 10
3 4 Riko T 0
4 5 Sammie H 0
[AltNames] - backup for searches caused by common spelling mistakes
AltNameID [int] | AltNames [nvarchar]
================ =============================
1 Sam, Samantha, Sammie, Sammy
2 Riko, Rico
[PersonAllNames] - JOINS [PersonNames.NameID] ON [AltNames.AltNameID]
NameID [int] | AltNameID [int]
============= ================
1 1
4 1
3 2
This is ideally what I'd like to have returned: PersonID | PageViewed | MostPopularName | NameSearch
========= ============ ================= =================
1 10 Samantha Green Samantha Brown, Samantha Green, Sam, Samantha, Sammie, Sammy
2 5 Richard T Richard T
3 2 Riko T Riko T, Riko, Rico
4 12 Sammie H Sammie H, Sam, Samantha, Sammie, Sammy
[MostPopularName] is [PersonNames.PopularVotes DESC].[NameSearch] combines all records from [PersonNames.PersonName] and [AltNames.AltNames].
The purpose for this is that I'd like to cache the results table so that all searches can just perform a lookup against the NameSearch field.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Pete.

I have multiple databases in the server and all my databases have tables: stdVersions, stdChangeLog. The stdVersions table have field called DatabaseVersion which stored the version of the database. The stdChangeLog table have a field called ChangedOn which stored the date of any change made in the database.
I need to write a query/stored procedure/function that will return all the database names, version and the date changed on. The results should look something like this:
DatabaseName DatabaseVersion DateChangedOn
OK5_AAGLASS 5.10.1.2 2015/01/12

I'm working on a social network where I store my friend GUIDs in a table with the following structure:user1_guid user2_guidI am trying to write a query to return a single list of all a users' friends in a single column. Depending on who initiates the friendship, a users' guid value can be in either of the two columns. Here is the crazy sql I have come up with to give what I want, but I'm sure there's a better way... Any ideas?SELECT DISTINCT UserIdFROM espace_ProfilePropertyWHERE (UserId IN
(SELECT CAST(REPLACE(CAST(user1_guid AS VarChar(36)) + CAST(user2_guid AS VarChar(36)), @userGuid, '') AS uniqueidentifier) AS UserId FROM espace_UserConnection WHERE (user1_guid = @userGuid) OR
(user2_guid = @userGuid))) AND (UserId IN

I have table "Clients" who have associated records in table "Mailings"
I want to populate a gridview using a single query that grabs all the info I need so that I may utilize the gridview's built in sorting.
I'm trying to return records containing the next upcoming mailing for each client.
The closest I can get is below:
I'm using GROUP BY because it allows me to return a single record for each client and the MIN part allows me to return the associated record in the mailings table for each client that contains the next upcoming 'send_date'
SELECT MIN(dbo.tbl_clients.client_last_name) AS exp_last_name, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.send_date) AS exp_send_date, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id) AS exp_user_id, dbo.tbl_clients.client_id, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.mailing_id) AS exp_mailing_idFROM dbo.tbl_clients INNER JOIN
dbo.tbl_mailings ON dbo.tbl_clients.client_id = dbo.tbl_mailings.client_idWHERE (dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id = 1000)GROUP BY dbo.tbl_clients.client_id
The user_id set at 1000 part is what makes it rightly pull in all clients for a particular user. Problem is, by using the GROUP BY statement I'm just getting the lowest 'mailing_id' number and NOT the actual entry associated with mailing item I want to return. Same goes for the last_name field. Perhaps I need to have a subquery within my WHERE clause?Or am I barking up the wrong tree entirely..

I have a package that I have been attempting to return a error code after the stored procedure executes, otherwise the package works great.
I call the stored procedure from a Execute SQL Task (execute Marketing_extract_history_load_test ?, ? OUTPUT)
The sql task rowset is set to NONE. It is a OLEB connection.
I have two parameters mapped:
tablename input varchar 0 (this variable is set earlier in a foreach loop) ADO.
returnvalue output long 1
I set the breakpoint and see the values change, but I have a OnFailure conditon set if it returns a failure. The failure is ignored and the package completes. No quite what I wanted.
The first part of the sp is below and I set the value @i and return.
CREATE procedure [dbo].[Marketing_extract_history_load_TEST]
@table_name varchar(200),
@i int output
as
Why is it not capturing and setting the error and execute my OnFailure code? I have tried setting one of my parameter mappings to returnvalue with no success.

I'm a Reporting Services New-Be.
I'm trying to create a report that's based on a SQL-2005 Stored Procedure.
I added the Report Designer, a Report dataset ( based on a shared datasource).
When I try to build the project in BIDS, I get an error. The error occurs three times, once for each parameter on the stored procedure.
I'll only reproduce one instance of the error for the sake of brevity.
[rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the query parameter 'UserID' contains an error : [BC30654] 'Return' statement in a Function, Get, or Operator must return a value.
I've searched on this error and it looks like it's a Visual Basic error :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8x403818(VS.80).aspx
My guess is that BIDS is creating some VB code behind the scenes for the report.
I can't find any other information that seems to fit this error.
The other reports in the BIDS project built successfully before I added this report, so it must be something specific to the report.
BTW, the Stored Procedure this report is based on a global temp table. The other reports do not use temp tables.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks,

I am trying to bring my stored proc's into the 21st century with try catch and the output clause. In the past I have returned info like the new timestamp, the new identity (if an insert sproc), username with output params and a return value as well. I have checked if error is a concurrency violation(I check if @@rowcount is 0 and if so my return value is a special number.)
I have used the old goto method for trapping errors committing or rolling back the transaction.
Now I want to use the try,catch with transactions. This is easy enough but how do I do what I had done before?
I get an error returning the new timestamp in the Output clause (tstamp is my timestamp field -- so I am using inserted.tstamp).
Plus how do I check for concerrency error. Is it the same as before and if so would the check of @@rowcount be in the catch section?
So how to return timestamp and a return value and how to check for concurrency all in the try/catch.
by the way I read that you could not return an identity in the output clause but I had no problem.
Thanks for help on this

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)
How can I code a stored procedure to do this?

Hi, is it possible to make an sql query that has an Outer Join but return only one row of results max per id.
For example i have an Articles table, and a PicturesForArticles table.
The Articles table has an id field(aid), a title field(aTitle) and a content field(aContent).
And the PicturesForArticles table has an id field(pid), a PicPath filed and a field linking it to the articles table(aid)
Obviously the PicturesForArticles field stores pictures for the articles, and article can have a multiple number of pictures, or no pictures at all.
So i want to make a query that will return all of the Articles fields and a picture for each article. Even if the article has many pictures i only want to get a single row for each aid(Articles Id), and if there are no pictures for that article the picture fields will be null.
Is there any way to do this, to only return on row of results for each aid?
Thanks

I'm doing a BCP of a large table 37 million rows. On a single CPU server, SQL 7, sp 3, with 512 meg of RAM, this job runs in about 3 hours. On a 8 way server with 4 Gig of RAM, SQL 7 Enterprise, this job runs 12 hours and is only a third done. The single CPU machine is running one RAID 5 set while the 8 way server is running 4 RAID 5 sets with the database spread out over two of them.
Is there something obvious that a single CPU box would run this much faster?
