I have a dynamic sql which uses Pivot and returns "technically" variable no. of columns.
Is there a way to store the dynamic sql's output in to a temp table? I don't want to create a temp table with the structure of the output and limit no. of columns hence changing the SP every time I get new Pivot column!!
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to figure out how to output a query as text instead of a tempory table...
I thought perhaps i could use this:
SELECT PRINT CustomerID FROM ORDER_TABLE
But that doesn't work
PRINT CustomerID FROM ORDER_TABLE
Doesn't work either...
I need this so i can print a customised invoice in SQL. That is, unless their is a better way of tackling this problem?
thx for reading :)

do you have a general rule of thumb for breaking a complex query into temp tables? For someone who is not a sql specialist, a query with more than a few table joins can be complex. So a query with 10+ table joins can be overwhelming for someone who is not a sql specialist.
One strategy is to break a problem into pieces so to speak by grouping together closely related tables into temp tables and then joining those temp tables together. This simplifies complex SQL and although not as performant as one big query it's much easier to understand. So do you have a general rule of thumb as far as a threshold for the number of joins you include in a query before you break the query into temp tables?

I'm trying to store the results of my store procedure in a temp table. when I try it, I got the error saying...
"Insert exec cannot be nested"
I suspsect this is because I have a Insert Exec statement inside my stored procedure...
Is there any way to come over this issue ?
syntax of my code...
create table #Temp1 (ID int)
insert into #Temp1
EXEC SP1
when I try to run the above code I get the error "Insert exec cannot be nested"
SP syntax :
Create Procedure SP1
as
Begin
create table #Temp2
statements.....
Insert into #temp2
exec SP<Name>

END
what are some common techniques for ensuring an isolated temp table scope? For example, if 2 different sprocs happen to crud a temp table with the same name? I'm guessing that big SQL shops establish a standard for this early on to avoid conflicts between sprocs.

Looking at an execution plan today I noticed something I've not seen before. The plan includes a non clustered index seek, followed by a RID lookup on the heap. The output list for the index seek contains the expected "Bmk" column (in this case "Bmk1473"), but also includes "IsBaseRow1475". This isn't a column from the table.

Hi All,
I am really in a great trouble. My requirement is quite complex, as I feel, it may be quite simple for some of you.
Here is my problem -
Actually I am doing a project, where client has a specific requirement. i.e. he want's to build a query on runtime for selecting particular record he wants, so that we have provided a user interface where he can select any datasource e.g. SQL, Oracle, Excel etc. He also specifies the database name. He is displayed all the tables and columns under those tables. He selects columns from those table boxes and write the query he wants, with where clause, if required.
I am saving these query in a table, storing column names in another table where we map those oringinal column names with columns of another table, wehre we want to store actual result set of the prepared query by the user.
for examaple ..
if user preapare query like - 'SELECT CUST_ID, CUST_NAME FROM CUSTOMER
WHERE CUST_ID = 10'
In case of above query I will store CUST_ID in column COL1 of table TAB1 and CUST_NAME in COL2 of table TAB1, like that we have such fifty columns in that table. Now question is here every thing is dynamic data provider, database, tables, columns and where clause, then how can get the result set out of those queries and store that query output in the that storage table with columns col1, col2 and so on, upto 50 columns.
Please help me on this, as it is so urgent.
I will be very much thankful to you people.
Thanks & regards,
Praveen Kadam
I have a file that is automatically generated by an external process that will always have the same name + a date stamp.I will say test_(Datestamp).txt
what i am trying to do is use sql to bulk insert this file but i will not know the full file name as the date stamp is also includes time. What my script is doing is taking this file everyday storing its contents temporarily in a table where i then use a trigger to edit and repopulate the table and kick out a new file that another external process uses.
I have below script
CREATE TABLE dbo.TestPivot(

INSERT INTO dbo.TestPivot

Does TSQL limits us on creating temp table using dynamic sql? If so any workaround... Here's the sample code that doesn't let me run second exec because it looks like first exec is not able to create a temp table.

set @str1='create table #tmp(col1 int)'
set @str2='insert into #tmp values (10)'
exec (@str1)
exec (@str2)
Hello all:
Here is a sample query:
DECLARE @KEYID NVARCHAR (50) ; SET @KEYID = '1074958'
DECLARE @ENTITY NVARCHAR (100); SET @ENTITY = 'HouseDimension'
DECLARE @KeyCol NVARCHAR(50);
SET @KeyCol = (SELECT LEFT(@ENTITY, (SELECT CHARINDEX( 'DIM', @ENTITY) -1)) )+ 'Key'
DECLARE @KeyValue NVARCHAR (1000)
SET @KeyValue = 'SELECT '+ @KeyCol + ' FROM HouseManagementFact WHERE HouseKey = ' + @KEYID +
' GROUP BY ' + @KeyCol + ' HAVING SUM(TotalClaimCount) > 0 OR SUM(HouseCount) > 0 '
The value resulting from Executing @KeyValue is an integer.
I want to store this value in a new variable say @VAR2
When I do this
DECLARE @VAR2 INT
SET @VAR2 = execute sp_executesql @KeyValue
its giving me an error.
can somebody let me know the correct form of storing the value resulting from @KeyValue in some variable ?

Hi all,
I've a requirement to store the output of the stored procedure into temp. tables/ table varibles.
I've 4 select statements as my output of the stored procedure. How do I store the results of all the 4 select stmnts into 4 different temp tables.
Simplified SP is as...
Create procedure usp_test
as
begin
select c1,c2 from table1
select c3,4 from table2
select c9,c8 from table3
select c5,c7 from Table4
end
I'm expecting something like this...
declare @table1 table (c1, c2)
insert into @table1
Exec <Sp_Name>
select * from @table1
I know the above stmnt works, if my SP has only 1 select stmnt as output.
Please help me to acheive this for multiple select statements.
Thanks,

View 16 Replies View RelatedOne of my current responsibilities is to export data to 3rd party vendors. Each export can contain many csv files. The exports are all different in terms of what data is being sent.
The way I have it currently setup is each file that needs to be created is a view. An SSIS package gets the data from the view, writes to CSV, and then sftp to 3rd party vendor. This seemed like a good idea at first because the columns are static but the calculations might change. So all I have to do is ALTER VIEW and I don't have to change anything in the package.
Is there a better way of doing this? I was curious to see what other people are doing. What makes it challenging is that all the exports are so different. If they were similar I could have created generic views that cover all the exports instead of each export having its own view. Eventually I'm going to have 100's of views.
