There's an SP that in effect returns a table -- it loops and executes
statements like SELECT @field1, @Field2, @Field2
Can I capture its results in a table? I know that if it were a FUNCTION
that returned a table, that would be simple:
INSERT ResultsTable SELECT * FROM dbo.Function (@Param1, @Param2)
But how to do that if the code is a procedure rather than a function?
I'm using SS 2012.
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@Source_Tbl sysname
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl
)
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
The input table can have several thousand rows.
In a table-valued UDF, does the UDF use a table variable or a temp table to form the resultset returned?
I am having a problem in creating query for this exciting scenario.
Table A
ID ItemQtyCreatedDatetime
W001 CB112014-06-03 20:30:48.000
W002 CB112014-06-04 01:30:48.000
Table B
IDItemQtyCreatedDatetime
A001 CB112014-06-03 19:05:48.000
A002 CB112014-06-03 20:05:48.000
A003 CB112014-06-03 21:05:48.000
A004 CB112014-06-04 01:05:48.000
A005 CB112014-06-04 02:05:48.000
I would like to return the nearest date of Table B in my table like for
ID W001 in table B should return ID A002 CreatedDatetime: 2014-06-03 20:05:48.000
ID W002 in table B should return ID A004 CreatedDatetime: 2014-06-04 01:05:48.000
Hi, I'm new to the forums, so hopefully I'm at the right place with my question...
Suppose I have a user-defined type in C#, which stands for simple point in 2D (let's call it Point). The type consists of two integer fields that represent the X and Y coordinate of the point. To make things a little more complicated, I want to store my values compressed using an algorithm, so I can't directly access X and Y without using a decompression algorithm.
I also have a table (PointTable), it's only column is called Data and is of type Point.
Now, writing and executing a simple query like
SELECT Data.ToString() FROM PointTable
is no problem at all.
What I want to do, is to be able to retrieve a table filled with the X and Y coordinates, so something like this:
SELECT PointX, PointY FROM GetTable()
where GetTable creates a table with columns PointX and PointY.
The function GetTable() should be implemented in C#, and work something like this: iterate through all Point values, decompress them, and create a new row from each Point.
I hope my intentions are clear and thanks for your help in advance!
I have a multi-level folders table, named folders with attributes of folder_id, parent_id and user_id, and have another table, users, contains all the user_id. I need to list all the users for each folder which has parent_id = 0 and its all sub-folders' users into one table. I have created a function to return a table with folder_id and user_id for one single folder. However, I don't know how to use this function to get the sub-folder's users and merge them together as one single table.
Here is my function:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[FolderUsers] (@fid int) RETURNS Table AS Return (select folder_id, f.user_id from folders f, users u where f.user_id = u.user_id and folder_id = @fid)Go
where @fid is the top folder with parent_id = 0 at here, the next level sub-folder's parent_id would be = @fid.
I am thinking to have recursive call from the parent_id = @fid that returns another table and have to concatenate to the called table. I have been thinking of store procedure, "insert into" and so on, but don't know how to implement it.
Do you have any good inspiration for me? Thank you in advance!

upon running executing this function with valid values i am not getting any results.
anything is wrong?
thank you,
Hi guys,
I have to work with some configuration data that is stored in rows as a comma separated values. Something like this:
Key1
A,1,Z,0;B,2,Y,9;C,,8,X;
Key2
Alpha,101;Beta,102;
Each group of data is separated by a semicolon and each value by a comma. The quantity of values may vary from one key to the other. Over this values sometimes I need to run some selects, so I went with the idea to get it as a table using CLR.
There I find the first problem: I didn't find a way to return a "variable" column with a CLR function, I had to create a SP. Ok, now I execute spGetConfigurationAsTable 'Key1' and I can obtain something like this:
A
1
Z
0
B
2
Y
9
C
3
X
8
But I'm faced with a second problem: How can I run a query over this? I didn't find a way to run a query over an output of a SP. And I can't INSERT the result into a temporary table because I cannot CREATE the table static (remember the columns may differ from one configuration to the other).
So, it seemed a pretty simple task and a neat solution, but I'm kinda stuck. Is there a way to run a query over the SP output? Or is there a way to have a variable table output from a CLR UDF?
Here is the code of the CLR SP I use to obtain the data, and also the (non-working) CLR user defined function.
THANKS!

Hi
Please help! I'm really stuck. I have a table (AssessorAllocations) that stores the data of students who have submitted assessments for marking by an Assessor. Each time an assessment is submitted by a student my program must determine which Assessor has the smallest workload and then assign the current assessment to that Assessor. My problem is how do I determine which Assessor has the smallest number of assessments assigned to him/her.
The table columns are:
AssessorRegistrationNo
LearnerRegistrationNo
QualficationName
SubjectName
AssessmentName
DateAssigned
Marked
DateMarked
Price
So I'm looking for something like this:
Select AssessorRegistrationNo from AssessorAllocations where {Select the Assessor who has the smallest number of AssessmentNames assigned to him/her where Marked='0' and DateAssigned<>''}
Thanks

The problem I'm having is that I need a cursor to return multiple results into 1 .NET System.Data.DataTable, and I don't know if it's possible. Actually, the real problem I'm having is that whoever designed this database did a poor job and if it weren't for one small thing I could do this all with aggregates...
But more specifically, this is what I need to accomplish. I have written a cursor that I know works - when I run it in MS SQL Query Analyzer, I get the results I want, but it's returned in multiple tables. I am maintaining a .NET application with some pretty lousy performance and I'm trying to boost it up. I need to take the cursor's results, stuff them into a DataTable, and then return that table to my web application to render.
In my C# code, I am using a SqlDataAdapter to execute my query. This is what I'd like to do...
/*assume query is my working cursor, InvoiceDBConnection is not null, and dt is an empty, non-null DataTable*/
SqlDataAdapter sda = new SqlDataAdapter(query, InvoiceDBConnection);
sda.Fill(dt);
... but this doesn't work, and it makes sense, I guess...since the cursor returns multiple "tables" (not sure if that's actually how the data is returned).
So is there any way to accomplish what I want to do? Or do I have to do it the crappy way it's done now by running my aggregate query and then using a really time-consuming for loop on my results to make the necessary adjustment?
Any help is greatly appreciated
I've built a simple VS2005 ASP.Net web app that uses Crystal Reports for generating assorted reports. More specifically, when a report is called it executes the correct SQL Server Stored Procedure and returns a Data Table populated with with appropriate data. In my testing, everything seemed to be working fine.But I just did a test where I pressed the "Submit" button on two different client browsers at almost the same time. Without fail, one browser returns the report as it should but the other one returns an empty report; all of the Crystal Reports template info is there but the report is just empty of data. Considering that each browser is running in its own session, I'm confused about why this is happening.One thing: I did login as the same user in both cases. Might this be causing the problem?Robert W.Vancouver, BC
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe currently have an application whereby the user will come along sign up add some information about them, choose what interests / hobbies they're in to and then click save.After completing the sigh up they're able to search for other individuals within locations (look at this functionality as a dating site) We currently have a stored procedure whereby when the user clicks Advance Search they fill in all the fields they filled in when signing up and when they click search we return all users that match the data the user has selected. This part is working correctly.
The issue im having is extending this stored procedure to take a user defined table type which has two columns UserId and ActivityId both columns are nullable.This user defined table type is referred to in two places, when the user signs up and when they do an advance search.When the user does an advance search he / she can choose a list of hobbies / interests this will then be passed in to the database and I will join on my User_Activities table to find the users that have the Activities passed in.When I join on this table I get duplicate records purely because one user may have 5 - 10 activities depending on how active the individual is. My current stored procedure looks like this
@Ambition int = null,
@Body int = null,
@Diet int = null,
@Drinking int = null,
@Ethnicity int = null,
@Exercise int = null,
@HeightFrom int = null,
[code]...
So my question is how can I select all users that match the criteria passed in, as well as finding the users that match the activities passed in (the user can either match all of them or a minimum of 1). Also my User_Activities has two columns UserId and ActivityId identical to the user defined table type

if exists (select * from sysobjects where id = object_id('dbo.spdv_AVAUpdate') and sysstat & 0xf = 4)
drop procedure dbo.spdv_AVAUpdate
[Code] ....
When I look at the results of CDC, instead of operations 3 and 4, I see 1 (DELETE) and 2 (INSERT) for the change that was initiated from the stored procedure:
-- GET CDC RESULTS FOR CHANGES TO AVA TABLE
USE dv_wrp_test
GO
SELECT *
FROM cdc.dbo_AVA_CT
GO
--RESULTS SHOW OPERATION 1 (DELETE) AND 2 (INSERT) INSTEAD OF 3 AND 4

Why this might be happening, and if so, what can be done to correct it? Also, is there any way to get the user id associated with the CDC?
Is it possible to return the results of a stored procedure into either a CTE or temp table?
In other words, is it possible to do this:
with someCTE as (
exec someStoredProc
)
or this:
exec someStoredProc into #tempTable
???
I have on stored procedure which returns mote than one resultset i want that to store in two different temp table how can achieve this in SQL server.
Following is the stored procedure and table that i need to create.
create procedure GetData as begin select * from Empselect * from Deptend
create table #tmp1 (Ddeptid int, deptname varchar(500),Location varchar(100))
Insert into #tmp1 (Ddeptid , deptname ,Location )
exec GetData
create table #tmp (empid int , ename varchar(500),DeptId int , salary int)
Insert into #tmp (empId,ename,deptId,salary)
exec GetData
I am opening a simple command against a view which joins 2 tables, so that I can return a column which is defined as a tinyint in one of the tables. The SELECT looks like this:
SELECT TreatmentStatus FROM vwReferralWithAdmissionDischarge WHERE ClientNumber = 138238 AND CaseNumber = 1 AND ProviderNumber = 89
The TreatmentStatus column is a tinyint. When I execute that above SQL SELECT statement in SQL Server Management Studio (I am using SQL Server 2005) I get a value of 2. But when I execute the same SQL SELECT statement as a part of a SqlDataReader and SqlCommand, I get a return data type of integer and a value of 1.
Why?
I hvae a stored procedure that has this at the end of it:
BEGIN
EXEC @ActionID = ActionInsert '', @PackageID, @AnotherID, 0, ''
END
SET NOCOUNT OFF
SELECT Something
FROM Something
Joins…..
Where Something = Something
now, ActionInsert returns a Value, and has a SELECT @ActionID at the end of the stored procedure.
What's happening, if that 2nd line that I pasted gets called, 2 result sets are being returned. How can I modify this SToredProcedure to stop returning the result set from ActionINsert?
I have created a table from another table where I specified that one of the fields, an number field, is sorted in ascending order and have NOT specified that it is to be an indexed field and there are 10 million records, from 1 to 10,000,000 exactly.
Now, if I query that table, asking to return records 1-1,000 from that non indexed number field that I sorted in ascending order (where number field <= 1,000) , will it run as fast as if it were indexed?
In other words, does SQL know somehow that these records are sorted in ascending order and so will not do a full table scan, stopping at 1,000 to return my data set?
Or is there no way for SQL to know this and only specifying an indexed field allows SQL to know that its in some order and so it doesn't have to do the full scan?
On cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); I am getting the following error "Procedure or function usp_Question_Count has too many arguments specified."Any Ideas as to how to fix this. Oh and I will include the SP down at the bottom // Getting the Correct Answer from the Database. int QuiziD = Convert.ToInt32(Session["QuizID"]); int QuestionID = Convert.ToInt32(Session["QuestionID"]); SqlConnection oConn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\quiz.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("usp_Question_Count", oConn); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter QuizParam = new SqlParameter("@QuizId", SqlDbType.Int); QuizParam.Value = QuiziD; cmd.Parameters.Add(QuizParam); SqlParameter QuestionParam = new SqlParameter("@QuestionID", SqlDbType.Int); QuestionParam.Value = QuestionID; cmd.Parameters.Add(QuestionParam); SqlParameter countParam = new SqlParameter("@CorrectAnswer", SqlDbType.Int); countParam.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; //cmd.Parameters.Add(workParam); cmd.Parameters.Add(countParam); oConn.Open(); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); // get the total number of products int iCorrectAnswer = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.Parameters["@CorrectAnswer"].Value); oConn.Close();Heres the stored ProcedureALTER PROCEDURE dbo.usp_Find_Correct_Answer @QuizID int, @QuestionID int, @CorrectAnswer int OUTPUT /* ( @parameter1 int = 5, @parameter2 datatype OUTPUT ) */AS /* SET NOCOUNT ON */ SELECT @CorrectAnswer=CorrectAnswer FROM Question WHERE QuizID=@QuizID AND QuestionOrder=@QuestionID
