SQL 2012 :: Getting Returned Value Of A Stored Procedure?
Jun 2, 2015I am running a sproc we have developed and I am getting a -6 as a returned value.what that actually means.
View 7 RepliesI am running a sproc we have developed and I am getting a -6 as a returned value.what that actually means.
View 7 RepliesI have a stored procedure which returns a result set as follows:
(Headers)Total,WV1,WV2,WV3,WV4,WV5.....
(Example data) "Some total name",1,2,3,4,5.....
The WV1, WV2, WV3 column names will be different depending on parameters passed to the stored procedure. In other words, the column names or number of columns aren't fixed (apart from "Total").
What I would like to be able to do is to just force SSRS to use the column headers supplied by the stored procedure as the column names in the report.
Hi,
I use a strong-typed DataSet to build the data access tier of my application, and the IDE generates most of code for me. However I can't find a way to get the value returned by a stored procedure(The stored procedure seems like 'RETURN 0').I noticed that a @RETURN_VALUE parameter is added automatically for each query method, but I don't know how to read the value.
Anybody could help me with the problem? Thanks.
I have a store procedure (e.g. sp_FetchOpenItems) in which I would like to call an existing stored procedure (e.g. sp_FetchAnalysts). The stored proc, sp_FetchAnalysts returns a resultset of all analysts in the system.
I would like to call sp_FetchAnalysts from within sp_FetchOpenItems and insert the resultset from sp_FetchAnalysts into a local temporary table. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Kevin
I have an asp.net 1.1 website that uses sql server 2000 and vb.I have a bit of a dilema, when I run a stored procedure in a webpage it returns the wrong value, but if I run itin the query analyzer the correct value is returned. Dim orderHistory As nlb.OrdersDB = New nlb.OrdersDB
' Obtain Order ID from QueryString
Dim OrderID As Integer = CInt(Request.Params("ID"))
' Get the customer ID too
Dim myNewCustomerId As Integer = 0
myNewCustomerId = orderHistory.GetOrderCustomer(OrderID)
Public Function GetOrderCustomer(ByVal orderID As Integer) As Integer
' Create Instance of Connection and Command Object
Dim myConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString"))
Dim myCommand As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("nlbsp_OrdersCustomerID", myConnection)
' Mark the Command as a SPROC
myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
' Add Parameters to SPROC
Dim parameterOrderID As New SqlParameter("@order_id", SqlDbType.Int, 4)
parameterOrderID.Value = orderID
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterOrderID)
Dim parameterOrderCustID As New SqlParameter("@customer_id", SqlDbType.Int, 4)
parameterOrderCustID.Value = ParameterDirection.Output
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterOrderCustID)
'Open the connection and execute the Command
myConnection.Open()
myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
myConnection.Close()
' Return the customer_id (obtained as out paramter of SPROC)
If parameterOrderCustID.Value <> 0 Then
Return CInt(parameterOrderCustID.Value)
Else
Return 0
End If
End Function
the stored procdure is
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[nlbsp_OrdersCustomerID]
(
@order_id int,
@customer_id int OUTPUT
)
AS
/* Return the customer_id from the Orders. */
SELECT
@customer_id = customer_id
FROM
nlb_Orders
WHERE
order_id = @order_id
GO
I know a particular order_id returns a value of 1. But when I run it in the webpage it always comes back as 2. Any ideas would be appreciated ThanksPete
The following query only brings back too much data in the table - there are duplicates and the lab it shows is wrong.
The problem is:
AND a.calLab = f.ID
in the Where statement.
Some equipment does not need calibration, so, a.calDueDate = 0 AND a.calLab would be NULL or 0.
tblLabs ID field has 1 - 18 (Labs) - no 0 and of course no null
I need to get the rest of the data.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.....

Hello,
I have the following stored prod in SQL server:
CREATE PROC spValidateUserIdAndPassword
@UserIdvarchar(50),
@Passwordvarchar(50)
AS
SELECT tblAdvertisers.UserID, tblAdvertisers.Password
FROM tblAdvertisers
WHERE ((tblAdvertisers.UserID = @UserId) AND (tblAdvertisers.Password = @Password))
I can run it in Query Analyzer and it returns one record as it should. I want it in ASP.NET to return the amount of rows that are effected, e.g that the login is correct.
The code I have is:
public bool ValidateUserIdAndPassword(string userId, string password)
{
sqlCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
//the name of the stored procedure
sqlCommand.CommandText = "spValidateUserIdAndPassword";
SqlParameter myParam;
//add the param's to the SP
//userId information for the user
myParam = new SqlParameter("@UserId", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
myParam.Value = CStr(userId);
sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(myParam);
//password information for the user
myParam = new SqlParameter("@Password", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
myParam.Value = CStr(password);
sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(myParam);
try
{
int rows = sqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
if(rows == 1)
return true;
else
return false;
}
catch(System.Exception er)
{
//for design time error checking
return false;
}
This returns -1...
Please help me

I have a stored procedure that return either 1 or -1 : IF EXISTS( ) BEGIN return 1 ENDELSE BEGIN return -1 ENDAnd then I try to retrieve the returned value by doing this:int value = Convert.ToInt32(command.ExecuteScalar());But the value I get is always 0. Anyone see what is wrong?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following stored procedure. The good thing is I finally got the syntax to the point where it doesn't blow up, but I was under the impression the "print" statement would print my result. In this case all I get is the statement ' 1 Row Affected ' which by the way is not the answer I was expecting.
Here's the code:
'
CREATE PROCEDURE createevents

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using the following stored procedure to insert a value into the database. I am new to stored procedures so I need help. Basically this stored procedurewill only insert a value for "CustomerName" if it is not a duplicate value.
So I noticed in My C# when I call this stored procedure, a negative one "-1"is returned if the insert is not performed because of a duplicate value.
Is that correct? Should I be getting back a negative one "-1" ? You seeI thought that a Zero "0" would be returned if the insert was not performed.Not a negative one?

In my ASP page, when I select an option from the drop down list, it has to get the records from the database stored procedure. There are around 60,000 records to be fetched. It throws an exception when I select this option. I think the application times out due to the large number of records. Could some tell me how to limit the number of rows to be returned to avoid this problem. Thanks.

I have a SQL Server stored procedure that performs several queries and therefore returns several "result sets" at any one time.
Wiring it up via ADO.NET I populate a DataSet with a number of items in the Tables collection - which is great - and I can give each item a name for identification purposes once the DataSet is populated.
But I'd like to know if there is some way I can set the names of each result set *within the text of the stored procedure*, i.e. before the DataSet gets populated.
Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a novice question. How does one suppress result sets returned from a stored procedure?
I have created a procedure which makes use of multiple stored procedures . The purpose of this procedure (lets call it procA), is to count the rows returned from other procedures. The €œOther€? procedures will return rows having an unknown number of columns. I would like to limit any changes which may be needed to be made to the €œOther€? procs.
Once procA has collected all of the information (@@rowcount) from the inner procedures, then it will return a result set having several columns €“ mainly the subProcedure name and number of rows returned.
The purpose of procA is to query several subsystems and identify which ones need attention.
Cursor While Loop
exec @ProcName @ObjectName,@userID,@syncDate
set @recs = @@rowcount;
My c# program calls the sp as follows:
cmd = DataUtility.GetSQLCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandText = "FetchAdminData";
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@userID", userAlias);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@adminDate",userDate);
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
I do not wish to iterate over each resultSet when I am only interested in the last one. Any suggestions?
I have no problem getting OLE DB Command transformations to support single returns by a procedure.
For example, exec name_of_procedure ?,?,? OUTPUT
However, I have a stored procedure which accepts 1 input and returns 5 outputs. This procedure works fine at the command line but when I try to incorporate it into a OLE DB Command I don't get the multiple values returned. There's no problem at all configuring the transform as it recognizes all input and output parameters. For some reason I just don't get values returned.
thanks

Hi
I have written a stored procedure that returns 8 tables.
When I try to design a server report based on this stored procedure, reporting services only recognises the first table and not the other 7 tables.

I have a stored procedure and in that I will be calling a stored procedure. Now, based on the parameter value I will get stored procedure name to be executed. how to execute dynamic sp in a stored rocedure
at present it is like EXECUTE usp_print_list_full @ID, @TNumber, @ErrMsg OUTPUT
I want to do like EXECUTE @SpName @ID, @TNumber, @ErrMsg OUTPUT
On SQL 2012 (64bit) I have a CLR stored procedure that calls another, T-SQL stored procedure.
The CLR procedure passes a sizeable amount of data via a user defined table type resp.table values parameter. It passes about 12,000 rows with 3 columns each.
For some reason the call of the procedure is verz very slow. I mean just the call, not the procedure.
I changed the procdure to do nothing (return 1 in first line).
So with all parameters set from
command.ExecuteNonQuery()to
create proc usp_Proc1
@myTable myTable read only
begin
return 1
end
it takes 8 seconds.I measured all other steps (creating the data table in CLR, creating the SQL Param, adding it to the command, executing the stored procedure) and all of them work fine and very fast.
When I trace the procedure call in SQL Profiler I get a line like this for each line of the data table (12,000)
SP:StmtCompleted -- Encrypted Text.
As I said, not the procedure or the creation of the data table takes so long, really only the passing of the data table to the procedure.
Here is the scenario,
I have 2 stored procedures, SP1 and SP2
SP1 has the following code:
declare @tmp as varchar(300)
set @tmp = 'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET ( ''SQLOLEDB'', ''SERVER=.;Trusted_Connection=yes'',
''SET FMTONLY OFF EXEC ' + db_name() + '..StoredProcedure'' )'
EXEC (@tmp)
SP2 has the following code:
SELECT *
FROM SP1 (which won't work because SP1 is a stored procedure. A view, a table valued function, or a temporary table must be used for this)
Views - can't use a view because they don't allow dynamic sql and the db_name() in the OPENROWSET function must be used.
Temp Tables - can't use these because it would cause a large hit on system performance due to the frequency SP2 and others like it will be used.
Functions - My last resort is to use a table valued function as shown:
FUNCTION MyFunction
( )
RETURNS @retTable
(
@Field1 int,
@Field2 varchar(50)
)
AS
BEGIN
-- the problem here is that I need to call SP1 and assign it's resulting data into the
-- @retTable variable
-- this statement is incorrect, but it's meaning is my goal
INSERT @retTableSELECT *FROM SP1
RETURN
END

I want to know, Is it possible to check a particular stored procedure is recompiling or not?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was just looking at an SSIS package someone else set up and I went into one of the execute SQL tasks and it is calling a stored procedure to truncate a table. There are a lot of places that tables are truncated within this SSIS package. But each one the 'database', 'owner', and 'table' name are hard coded.
Like this: exec dbo.uspTruncateTable 'dbname', 'dbo', 'tblname'
Of course there are different names, just changed for an example.
Here is the code in the Stored Procedure.
CREATE procedure [dbo].[uspTruncateTable]
@nDatabase varchar(255),
@nOwner varchar(255),
@ntable varchar(255)
as
declare @sqlString nvarchar(max)
set @sqlString = 'Truncate Table ' + @nDatabase + '.' + @nOwner + '.' + @ntable
exec (@sqlString)
This just seems like an unneeded step, just code the 'truncate table dbname.dbo.tblname'.
I have a database user dsrpReader that can execute stored procedures in one database; it's the only thing that this user can do. Works great except for the below stored procedure.
[code=sql]
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[__usp_DatabaseFieldsize_Get]
@pTablename nvarchar(128)
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
[Code] ....
If I run the above as an administrative user (windows login), I get N rows of information back (N > 0). If I run it as an unprivileged user (see beginning of post), I get 0 rows back and no error messages.
Adding 'with execute as owner' solves the issue, but I'm not sure of the implications. Am I opening up the database to attacks (or even the complete server)?
If so, how to continue.
In an attempt to solve the issue I have given permissions to the user dsrpReader on the information_schema.columns but have no success. It did not work. This was just a try, I actually want to set up a dedicated user with some permissions that I can use in the 'with execute as 'limiteduser'.
I am logging into a SQL instance to run the following query:
DECLARE @ReturnCode int EXECUTE @ReturnCode = [master].dbo.xp_create_subdir N'sharemasterFULL' IF @ReturnCode <> 0 RAISERROR('Error creating directory.', 16, 1)
The share in which the folder is to be created has my account added with full permissions to create files. However this command fails unless I add the SQL Service account user with rights to the folder also.
Is this expected behaviour, is this something specific to extended stored procedures?
We need to create a pdf file from SQL server preferably from a stored procedure. Application will call the stored procedure and it should generate pdf. From my research it appears it can be done using various external tools with licensing/costs. But is it possible to do this within sql server database without additional costs? I read that this can be done by SSRS in SQL server but not sure if it is a good solution and if it is additional licensing..
