I have an Execute SQL Task that executes "select count(*) as Row_Count from xyztable" from an Oracle Server. I'm trying to assign the result to a variable. However when I try to execute I get an error: [Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "RowCount": "Unsupported data type on result set binding Row_Count.".
Which data type should I use for the variable, RowCount? I've tried Int16, Int32, Int64.
Gurus.I do not know if it is possible, but here is what I want to do.I want to allow user to page the SQL result, so he could decides toreturn from row 10 to row 20, or row 100 to 200, without returns thewhole resultset. Every time he sends another request, I do not mind tohit the database again, (I do not want to cache the result in themiddle tier server, scalability issue), and I know that I could achievethis with CURSOR, but unfortunately the FOR XML is not allowed in aCURSOR statement .(I know that I could achieve what I want to do by writing custom codein the middle tier, but I just want to see if there is a way to do thison the database side.)Any comments & suggestion is greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance.(I am using SQL2005)John
I would like to make a listbox only appear if there are results returned by the SQL select statement. I want this to be assessed on a click event of a button before the listbox is rendered.I obviously use the ".visible" property, but how do I assess the returned records is zero before it is rendered?
I¡¦ve got a table with the following as well as other info:
User ID DirectoryTypeID (int) Region ID (int)
I need to run a query where I could get the region ID, then, in the second column, I¡¦d get all distinct directory types within that region. For example, if I run the query:
When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view. Using third technique i.e. Select Into, I have observed the sort order is again different in the resulting table. My question is what is the difference in mechanisim of query analyzer, bcp, and select into. Thanks
Hi all, I am writing a select query which produces huge xml data.Now i want to read that data from my web application a save it as xml file. How can i do that. I am using asp.net vb.net.
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).
To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value ----------- ----- colB 123 colA XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly...
However, as you can see, the original select query is run twice and joined together.What I was hoping for is this to be done in the original query without the need to duplicate the original query.
in table Databackup company keepmonth ----------------- ------------------- 001 12002 12003 6005 607917 609747 6
I run this query select Max(keepmonth) as keep from Databackup why the result is 6 not 12? I think the max value should 12 , have no idea why it return 6 does my query error? thank you

Here's what I'm trying to do: 1. Output each country in one column 2. Output the number of subscriptions made from a member of that country where tblOrders.orderTypeID = 3 and tblSubscriptionPacks.TypeID = 1 in the next column 3. Output the number of subscriptions made from a member of that country where tblOrders.orderTypeID = 3 and tblSubscriptionPacks.TypeID = 2 in the next column
My problem was that I was doing joins, and I was somehow ending up with orders where the OrderTypeID was NOT equal to 3, even though I declared it specifically in the WHERE clause.
I have information on clothes in a table that I want to select out to a result set in a different structure - I suspect that this will include some kind of pivot (or cross-join?) but as I've never done this before I'd appreciate any kind of help possible.
Current structure is:
Colour Size Quantity ----------------------- Red 10 100 Red 12 200 Red 14 300 Blue 10 400 Blue 12 500 Blue 14 600 Green 10 700 Green 12 800 Green 14 900 Green 16 1000
I want to produce this result set:
Colour Size10 Size12 Size14 Size16 ------------------------------------- Red 100 200 300 0 Blue 400 500 600 0 Green 700 800 900 1000
There could be any number of sizes or colours.
Is this possible? Can anyone give me any pointers?
The value of one of the columns in my table is 14000 lines(678913 characters). The datatype of that column is varchar(MAX). I am doing the following select query but its truncating the results.
select value -- this is truncating the text. from dbo.GUISETTINGS
The length is shown as below when I do the query:
SELECT DATALENGTH(VALUE) from dbo.GUISETTINGS -- return 707951 as the length.
I even tried running the query below but still the value is getting truncated. However, if I right-click and select "Save Results As" a file, then it shows all the lines/characters fine.
select value, cast(value as text), cast(value as varchar(max)) from dbo.GUISETTINGS
I have a strange problem. I have some code that executes a sql query. If I run the query in SQL server query analyzer, I get a set of data returned for me as expected. This is the query listed on lines 3 and 4. I just manually type it into query analyzer. Yet when I run the same query in my code, the result set is slightly different because it is missing some data. I am confused as to what is going on here. Basically to examine the sql result set returned, I write it out to an XML file. (See line 16). Why the data returned is different, I have no idea. Also writing it out to an XML file is the only way I can look at the data. Otherwise looking at it in the debugger is impossible, with the hundreds of tree nodes returned. If someone is able to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it. 1. public DataSet GetMarketList(string region, string marketRegion)2. {3. string sql = @"SELECT a.RealEstMarket FROM MarketMap a, RegionMap b " + 4."WHERE a.RegionCode = b.RegionCode"; 5.

SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd); 10. try11. {12. adapter.Fill(dsMarketList); 13. String bling = adapter.SelectCommand.CommandText;//BRG 14. dsMarketList.DataSetName="RegionMarket"; 15. dsMarketList.Tables[0].TableName = "MarketList"; 16. dsMarketList.WriteXml(Server.MapPath ("myXMLFile.xml" )); // The data written to 17. myXMLFile.xml is not the same data that is returned when I run the query on line 3&4 18. // from the SQL query 19. } 20. catch(Exception e) 21. { 22. // Handle the exception (Code not shown)
We have multiple employees assigned to the same assignment sometimes, and my query is skewed as that if there are 2 people assigned to the ssame assigment I can only see the amt of time worked for the 1st person. What should I do to remedy this?
I am a newbie to SQL Server. I have a problem, in filtering the records returned by a query. I have a table which contains 1 million records, it has a user defined primary key which is of character type. The problem is i need to filter the output of a select query on the table based on two parameters i send to that query. The first parameter will be the starting row number and the second one is the ending row number. I need a procedure to do this.
For Eg: MyProc_GetRowsFromBigTable(startRowNo,endRowNo) should get me only the rows in the specified range.

Dear MS SQL Experts,I have to get the number of datasets within several tables in my MSSQL2000 SP4 database.Beyond these tables is one table with about 13 million entries.If I perform a "select count(*) from table" it takes about 1-2 min toperform that task.Since I know other databases like MySQL which take less than 1 sec forthe same taskI'm wondering whether I have a bug in my software or whether there areother mechanisms to get the number of datasets for tables or the numberof datasets within the whole database.Can you give me some hints ?Best regards,Daniel Wetzler
Hi, Please help me with an SQL Query that fetches all the records from the three tables but a unique record for each forum and topicid with the maximum lastpostdate. I have to bind the result to a GridView.Please provide separate solutions for SqlServer2000/2005. I have three tables namely – Forums,Topics and Threads in SQL Server2000 (scripts for table creation and insertion of test data given at the end). Now, I have formulated a query as below :- SELECT ALL f.forumid,t.topicid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate,(select count(threadid) from threads where topicid=t.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums f FULL JOIN Topics t ON f.forumid=t.forumid FULL JOIN Threads th ON t.topicid=th.topicid GROUP BY t.topicid,f.forumid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate ORDER BY t.topicid ASC,th.lastpostdate DESC Whose result set is as below:-
forumid topicid name author lastpostdate NoOfThreads
5 17 General NULL NULL 0 On modifying the query to:- SELECT ALL f.forumid,t.topicid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate,(select count(threadid) from threads where topicid=t.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums f FULL JOIN Topics t ON f.forumid=t.forumid FULL JOIN Threads th ON t.topicid=th.topicid GROUP BY t.topicid,f.forumid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate HAVING th.lastpostdate=(select max(lastpostdate)from threads where topicid=t.topicid) ORDER BY t.topicid ASC,th.lastpostdate DESC I get the result set as below:-
forumid topicid name author lastpostdate NoOfThreads

Is it possible to get the result from an EXEC(@sqlcommand) statement into a variable?
As part of a SQL loop, it is necessary for me to run an EXEC() command to process an SQL statement. I have succesfully implemented this, but have been unable to get the results from the EXEC() statement into a variable to allow this data to be inserted into a table. Is this possible?
For Example (I know this doesn't work, but it is effectively what I am trying to achieve):
select @result = EXEC(@sqlcommand)
I could then use the @result variable in an insert statement to update a table with the results from the EXEC command.
In MySQL we use "SELECT (....) LIMIT 0, 10" to only return the first 0 to 10 records. Alternatively we could do "LIMIT 10, 20" to return the 10th to 20th records.
I am working on application developed in ASP.NET 2.0 that uses lots of stored procedures from the SQL Server 2000 backend database.When the app is under load you occasionally see incorrect data returned to the page after running stored procedures.
All the stored procedures have been tested and appear to be fine. it's as if under load the returned data from the stored procedures is getting 'mixed' with another concurrent session. Please let me know what could be the reason behind it
I've found example code of accessing an SQLDataSource and even have it working in my own code - an example would be Dim datastuff As DataView = CType(srcSoftwareSelected.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty), DataView) Dim row As DataRow = datastuff.Table.Rows(0) Dim installtype As Integer = row("InstallMethod") Dim install As String = row("Install").ToString Dim notes As String = row("Notes").ToString The above only works on a single row, of course. If I needed more, I know I can loop it.The query in srcSoftwareSelected is something like "SELECT InstallMethod, Install, Notes FROM Software"My problem lies in trying to access the data in a simliar way when I'm using a SELECT COUNT query. Dim datastuff As DataView = CType(srcSoftwareUsage.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty), DataView) Dim row As DataRow = datastuff.Table.Rows(0) Dim count As Integer = row("rowcnt") The query here is "SELECT COUNT(*) as rowcnt FROM Software"The variable count is 1 every time I query this, no matter what the actual count is. I know I've got to be accessing the incorrect data member in the 2nd query because a gridview tied to srcSoftwareUsage (the SQLDataSource) always displays the correct value. Where am I going wrong here?
Here the SELECT query is fetching the records corresponding to ITEM_DESCRIPTION in 5 separate transactions. How to change the cursor to display the 5 records in at a time in single transactions.

Hi,This is a very simple question but I don't have any idea of how to do it.Says I have a table with 50 records. How do I know the number of record have been return by sqldatasource when it execute a SELECT sql statement that contains a WHERE clause. Says the 30 records match the SELECT statement, what code do I have to write in order to display the number 30? Thanks
Hi all,I have a stored procdure which does a select and returns the recordsdirectly -i.e. Not in output parameters e.g:CREATE PROCEDURE up_SelectRecs(@ProductName nvarchar(30)) ASSELECT *FROM MyTableWHERE [Name]=@ProductNameIn another stored procedure I need to do the following:SELECT COUNT(*)FROM MyTableWHERE [Name]=@ProductNameAs the select queries are actually a lot more complex that this, I'drather not duplicate the select code in 2 sp's to save the maintenanceeffort - I'm looking for a way to execute the first procedure from thesecond and just count the records returned - something like:SELECT Count(*)FROM EXEC up_SelectRecs @ProductNameAny way to achieve this?Thanks all--James
