Dynamic Column Names In Select Statement
Oct 13, 2001I have a quick question on SQL Server. Lets say I have table Order which has column names OrderId, CustomerName, OrderDate and NumberofItems. To select the OrderID values from the table I say
Select OrderId from Order.
But in the select if I want the column name to be variable how do I do it. I tried the following code through a stored procedure.
declare @order_id nvarchar(10)
select @order_id = 'OrderID'
SELECT @order_id from Order.
The code above gave me the string "OrderID" as many times as there were rows in the table but I could never get the actuall values in the OrderId column. Can you please send me some ideas or code where I can get values from the column names and at the same time change the column name dynamically.
SELECT Statement - How To Not Get Column Field Names?
Jan 24, 2007I do a SELECT * from table command in an ASP page to build a text fileout on our server, but the export is not to allow a field name rows ofrecords.

Return Tables That Have Certain Column Names
Feb 28, 2008Hi all,
From the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES view I want to return the TABLE_NAME of tables that have columns say, named Email and EmailStatusId. Is it possible to do this with a single select statement or would I have to use two selects for this?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
How Do I Get The Actual Name Of A Column Or Table In A Sql Select Statement?
Jul 12, 2004Hello fellow .net developers,
In a website I'm working on I need to be able to put all of the user tables in a database in a dropdownlist.
Another dropdownlist then will autopopulate itself with the names of all the columns from the table selected in the first dropdownlist.
So, what I need to know is: is there a sql statement that can return this type of information?
Example:
Table Names in Database: Customers, Suppliers
Columns in Customers Table: Name, Phone, Email, Address
I click on the word "Customers" in the first dropdownlist.
I then see the words "Name", "Phone", "Email", "Address" in the second dropdownlist.
I'm sure you all know this (but I'll say it anyways): I could hardcode this stuff in my code behind file, but that would be really annoying and if the table structure changes I would have to revise my code on the webpage. So any ideas on how to do this the right way would be really cool.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

Return Column Names Where Values Were Not Found [stored Procedure]
Sep 5, 2004I need to check whether procedure found any matches or not. If not it has to return the column name where matching value was not found. For example, if there was no record found in the table "Addresses" column "customer" with the value @username, it should return "street". If id with value @prod_id was not found in the table "Products", the "productname" must be returned as well.
CREATE PROC sp_test
@id INT,
@username VARCHAR(50),
@prod_id INT
AS
SELECT name FROM Customers WHERE id=@id
SELECT street FROM Addresses WHERE customer=@username
SELECT productname FROM Products WHERE id=@prod_id
It is kind of check, which has to find out if users have inserted all the necessary values or not.
Thanks for any advice.
SQL Server 2012 :: Create Dynamic Update Statement Based On Return Values In Select Statement
Jan 9, 2015Ok 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.
Select Into Statement Without Taking Auto Increment Of ID Column To The New Table
Mar 7, 2011Due to localization I have the need to make child tables, where there is a composite Primary Key, between the Id column and the LanguageSign column. On the parent table the Id column is Identity column with auto increment.
The problem is that during the select into query to copy columns from parent to child, this auto increment behaviour of the parent-Id is copied to the child-Id. However I do not want that, because the same Id will be used by different LanguageSign entries
Is there a way to use 'select into' without copying the auto increment, or is my only option to make a whole new column without auto increment on the child and copy the records?
btw I have used this statement
SET
IDENTITY_INSERT MyTable
ON , so that inserting into the Id column is possible. I can see however that this does not take away the auto increment...

Random Selection From Table Variable In Subquery As A Column In Select Statement
Nov 7, 2007Consider the below code: I am trying to find a way so that my select statement (which will actually be used to insert records) can randomly place values in the Source and Type columns that it selects from a list which in this case is records in a table variable. I dont really want to perform the insert inside a loop since the production version will work with millions of records. Anyone have any suggestions of how to change the subqueries that constitute these columns so that they are randomized?
SET NOCOUNT ON
Declare @RandomRecordCount as int, @Counter as int
Select @RandomRecordCount = 1000
Declare @Type table (Name nvarchar(200) NOT NULL)
Declare @Source table (Name nvarchar(200) NOT NULL)
Declare @Users table (Name nvarchar(200) NOT NULL)
Declare @NumericBase table (Number int not null)
Set @Counter = 0
while @Counter < @RandomRecordCount
begin
Insert into @NumericBase(Number)Values(@Counter)
set @Counter = @Counter + 1
end
Insert into @Type(Name)
Select 'Type: Buick' UNION ALL
Select 'Type: Cadillac' UNION ALL
Select 'Type: Chevrolet' UNION ALL
Select 'Type: GMC'
Insert into @Source(Name)

Transact SQL :: Use Dynamic Table Names And Get Return Value From The Query
Sep 16, 2015I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
- SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.
- SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will
1. take a parameter
2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string
3. Execute that string as SQL
4. Get a return value from that SQL statement
5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Dynamic Column Names For Insert Statement?
Apr 9, 2015I would like to provide the names of columns in an insert statement from a schema table, so that when running through a number of Bus Rule checks I can reference the schema table and only maintain the columns in the schema table rather than maintain named columns in multiple insert statements. So my query for one check looks like below. I'm using dynamic sql to execute the insert statement. My question is, is there a better way or different way to do this without using dynamic sql? Ie, Is there a way that I can use the columns parameter like this instead?
Insert
('+@columns+',KickoutID) Values('+@columns+',1);
Dynamic code:
Declare @columns as nvarchar(max);
Declare @InvSQL as nvarchar(max);
SELECT @columns =
STUFF ((
SELECT ', [' + name + ']'
FROM syscolumns WHERE id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.table_pvt')
[Code] ....
Using Variables To Select Column Names
Oct 20, 2006Hi
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

Return Variable Name As Part Of Select Statement.
Mar 9, 2008hey all,
I have the following query:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_SelectMostRecentArticle]
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @article_id INT
SELECT @article_id = (
SELECT TOP 1 article_id
FROM article
ORDER BY article_id DESC
)
DECLARE @comment_count INT
SELECT @comment_count = (
SELECT COUNT(comment_id)
FROM comment
JOIN article ON article_id = comment_article_id
GROUP BY article_id
HAVING article_id = @article_id
)
SELECT TOP 1 article_id, article_author_id,
article_title, article_body, article_post_date,
article_edit_date, article_status, article_author_id
article_author_ip, author_display_name,
category_id, category_name--, comment_count AS @comment_count
FROM article
JOIN author ON author_id = article_author_id
JOIN category ON category_id = article_category_id
GROUP BY article_id, article_title, article_body, article_post_date,
article_edit_date, article_status, article_author_ip,article_author_id,
author_display_name, category_id, category_name
HAVING article_id = @article_id
END
GO
as you can see, im trying to return a comment_count value, but the only way I can do this is by defining the variable.
I have had to do it this way, because I cannot say COUNT(comment.comment_id) AS comment_count or it returns an error that it cant reference the comment.comment_id.
But when change it to FROM article, comment; I get errors about the article_author_id and article_comment_id.
And i cant add a join, because it would return the amount of rows of the comment...
unless someone could help with what i Just decribed (as i would prefer to do it this way), how would i return the variable value as part of the select statement?
Cheers

Overloading Select Statement Return Values
Nov 14, 2007Hey guys,
This is what I think and hope is a fairly straight forward SQL question
Essentially, I have a table which has the following columns that are relevent to my question:
PROJID
ACTIVITY_NAME
COMPLETION_DATE
Rows in this table are, for example:
PROJID ACTIVITY_NAME COMPLETION_DATE
1 Prepro 10/12/2007 3:42:30
2 Prepro 10/13/2007 9:16:27
2 QA 10/13/2007 10:00:01
2 Delivery 10/14/2007 09:31:12
etc.
So, really the key is the PROJID & the ACTIVITY_NAME (really, there's a unique column ID, but for this question, I'll leave it at that).
(Though this should be much easier to accomplish in code, the system is not built that way so) Is there a good way that I could return a status for a given PROJID based on whether a row exists for a given PROJID). In other words, ultimately, I would like to return something like this:
PROJID LAST_ACTIVITY
----------------------------------------------
1 Prepro
2 Delivery
where the activity order (in this case) is Prepro, QA, Delivery. So because a Delivery row exists for PROJID 2, then the LAST_ACTIVITY would return "Delivery" and because only Prepro exists for PROJID 1, the LAST_ACTIVITY returned would be Prepro
I really appreciate the help
Thanks,
Steve
Selecting Table Names In A SQL Statement
Jun 12, 2001Hey all,
I trying to figure out if you can get a list of table names from a particular database by writing a single SQL statement.
E.G. In Oracle, from SQLPlus - you can say:
Select table_name from user_tables;
Is there anything like that SQL that I could run from Query Analyser to get a list of table names from a particular SQL Server database?
Thanks in advance,

Any thoughts?

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Stored Procedure And SELECT Statement Return Different Results
Dec 4, 2014I have a stored procedure on a SQL Server 2008 database. The stored procedure is very simple, just a SELECT statement. When I run it, it returns 422 rows. However, when I run the SELECT statement from the stored procedure, it returns 467 rows. I've tried this by running both the stored procedure and the SELECT statement in the same SSMS window at the same time, and the behavior is the same. The stored procedure is:
USE [REMS]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [mobile].[GetAllMobileDeviceUsers] Script Date: 12/04/2014 */
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[Code] ....
When I do this in the same SSMS window:
exec mobile.GetAllMobileDeviceUsers
SELECT
ee.EmployeeID,
EmployeeName = LastName + ', ' + FirstName
FROM EmployeeInvData ee
--UNION
[Code] ....
I get two result sets. The first is 422 rows; the second is 467 rows. Why?

Select Table Names
May 27, 2008here a quick rundown of what i want to do:
database
database1
database hold all my good information.
database 2 is the copy for breaking.
Im too a point that i need to get my 2nd DB to by like the first.
I want to truncate all the tables in database2, and then export, or select from insert into.
I just need the data, not triggers or anything like that.
So:
How can i find the name of my tables (not views) in that database
For each (select table_name from system where database="database") copy database.table_name database1.table_name;
i hope that makes sense.
I just need to restore my devel DB back to the original so i can mess it up again,
Thanks
