I have an inline query that I am trying to convert it into JOIN, results are not coming out the same:

I have a stored proc that is being executed from an OLE DB Source component in my Data Flow. Takes one input parm, has several variables declared within, a derived table which is used in a join and all within a try catch block with transaction handling. No updates, just returning data, works great, except now I have been asked to replace these stored procs with inline queries.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_Get_Test]
(
@numberOfMonthsint
)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
set transaction isolation level read uncommitted
[Code] ....
The problems I have run into so far are...
SQL command text in OLE DB Source Editor does not like:
- TRY/CATCH block
- Will not let me use my input parm (@numberOfMonths int)
- When I hard code in my input parm (select @BeginDate = dateadd(MONTH, -1, GETDATE())) I can parse query and run the step but no results are returned. So I am let to assume that it does not like the @TESTY derived table.
The query here as a sample has had pivots removed as well, but research suggests this should be an issue in the SQL command text.
Also, I know not even to try the Build Query... cause it will complain about any variable declarations (i.e., declare @BeginDate datetime).
For instance, can I pull this off with an Execute SQL Task? The problem is I don't see this available in the toolbox for the Data Flow.
Also, would my error handling be done in the Event Handlers tab now and if so, is there a good example of this?
I have a recursive CTE on an inline table valued function. I need to set the MAXRECURSION option on the CTE, but SQL Server is complaining with "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'OPTION'".
It works fine on non-inline function. I couldn't find any documentation indicating this wasn't possible.
I can use the MAXRECURSION option in call to the function
SELECT * FROM MyFunction ()
OPTION ( MAXRECURSION 0 )
but that means that the user needs to know the "MyFunction" uses recursive CTE, which defeats the purpose of the abstraction.
I have a query which wants to union join the data. no matter how many times I tried, I got an error. How to change my union query?

Hi i have the following method in my page, it works fine and everything, but i am trying to modify it so that it can take a stored procedure;

conn.Open();
SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(sql, conn);SqlDataReader reader = comm.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection);
DataList1.DataSource = reader;
DataList1.DataBind();
conn.Close();
}
My question is what should my stored procedure be, and also how will i now structure the above method.

I have been trying to convert an existing table that used adjacency list model (parentid,childid) to a table that use hierarchy Id type. So early on, I notice my original data does contains multiple roots. So I took a step to create dummy nodes to ensure all nodes fall into a single root structure. Another important fact is that each child node can have multiple parents.
My original source table contains 22461 records, when running the query below step 2 produces explosive number of records around 175,000+ records. I spent hours study the result and couldn't understand what actually causing this, I ran it against small set of test data I didn't seem the issue caused by child with multiple parents.
select * from SourceTable -- produces 22461 records
--step 1: first, get row number of child records in each parent
SELECT ChildID,ParentID, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PARENTID ORDER BY PARENTID) as Num

Hi, I'm trying to get MSSQL to choose which row to display from a result from a query, but it seems to need an 'IF' or something similar.
My query asks the database to pick out all rows that meet critera X, but sometimes (quite correctly) some of the rows created by query X are duplicates. (A data overlap nothing wrong with the query)
I want to be able to get the query to decide which one of these duplicates to display. There is a unique element.
Example Below
|ID | SYSNAME |DATE |ACTIVE
---------------------------------------------
1 | PC1 | 10/3/7 | 1
2 | PC1 | 10/3/7 | 0
3 | PC2 | 10/3/7 | 1
ID 1 + 2 is the duplicate.
In my example I want to remove ID 1 from the result, I can't use the 'active' column as this will remove ID3 fro the result.
I want the query to recognise the duplicate based on the sysname, then choose to display the result with 0 in it.
Does anyone have a clue what I'm talking about? I'm loosing the plot.

I have a XML data passed on to the stored proc in the following format, and within the stored proc I am accessing the data of xml using the nodes() method
Here is an example of what i am doing
DECLARE @Participants XML
SET @Participants = '<ArrayOfEmployees xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<Employees EmpID="1" EmpName="abcd" />
<Employees EmpID="2" EmpName="efgh" />
</ArrayOfEmployees >'
SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)
the above query produces the following result
EmployeeID EmployeeName
--------------- -----------
1 abcd
2 efgh
How do I join the data coming out from the above query with another table in the database, for example Employee in this case
i.e. somewhat like this (note the following query does not perform the join correctly)
SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)
INNER JOIN
Employee EMP ON EmployeeID = EMP .EmployeeID
My desired output after the join would be
EmployeeID EmployeeName Email Home Address
--------------- ----------- --------------- -----------
1 abcd abcd@abcd.com New York
2 efgh efgh@efgh.com Austin
I have this sql....

[code]....
however, I only want the lastest a.dbPatApptTime and only when a.dbPFStatus = 1 and a.ClientRef = 'EPS'
So the stand alone sql could be....
Select Top(1) dbPatApptTime as LastVisitDate, dbSchTypeDesc as LastVisitDesc
from appointments
where dbPFStatus = 1 and clientref = 'EPS'
order by dbPatApptTime desc
I'm just not sure how to incorporate that into my sql or whether there is a better way,
I'm creating a sql stored procedure inside this proc it returns some information about the user, i.e location, logged in, last logged in, etc I need to join this on to the photos table and return the photo which has been set as the profile picture, if it hasn't been set then return the first top 1 if that makes sense?
The user has the option to upload photos so there might be no photos for a particular user, which I believe I can fix by using a left join
My photos table is constructed as follows:
CREATE TABLE [User].[User_Photos](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[UserId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[PhotoId] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[IsProfilePic] [bit] NULL,
[Code] ....
Currently as it stands the proc runs but it doesn't return a particular user because they have uploaded a photo so I need to some how tweak the above to return null if a photo isn't present which is where I'm stuck.

I have two queries from two different tables ex ABC and BCD. For table ABC, according to my query, I got 11 records ; for table BCD I only got 9 records.
Bottom line: I would like to see only 11 records from Table ABC including certain data from table BCD after I joined this two tables.
However, no matter what I did I always got 99 records when I joined.
I have data that I want at multiple granularities, 5,15,30 and 60 minutes. To reduce repetition, I have put them all in the same table, so that there is a column for 5,15,30 and 60 minutes, with a filtered index on each of the columns that removes the nulls. This means that each day will have 288 slots, but only 24 of the slots are filled in for 60 min data, and all of them are filled for 5 minute data.
I have another column that specifies the interval granularity, and my first thought was to access my data through a join, where I can use a CASE statement, and depending on the data granularity necessary, it will look at a different column:
INNER JOIN Data d ON
AND d.settlement_key =
CASE st.interval_granularity
WHEN 5 THEN [5_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 15 THEN [15_min_settlement_key]
WHEN 60 THEN [60_min_settlement_key]
ELSE NULL END
Despite the presence of the indexes on the columns, then the process seems to be quite slow, I think probably due to the fact that any query plan isn't going to know beforehand which of the columns it is going to use for any given dataset, until it actually starts to run, so it may not be optimised.
How I could optimise this based on the given structure? Maybe there are hints to be added to the join, or maybe I can clear the query plan each time the SQL is run? My other option for dealing with the data of different granularity was to use one column and repeat the data multiple times, each at the different granularity, but this makes my data, row and table sizes much higher, as we are adding just a column for each additional granularity. Would this work any better in future versions of SQL server, maybe with column store indexes?
I have query that doesn't even register a time when running it. But when I add the lines that are commented out in the code below, it takes between 20 and 30 seconds! When I run the code for functions directly,I know when I include it like this, it loses the Indexing capabilities?
SELECT
----, ISNULL(CAST(NULLIF(dbo.ufnGetRetail(I.ISBN13),0.00) AS VARCHAR(20)), 'N/A') RetailPrice
----, ISNULL(CAST(NULLIF(SP.LocalPrice,0.00) AS VARCHAR(20)),'on request') LocalPrice

How to have the functions included but have the query response time come down?
Can the collation used by SSIS be changed or influenced during install or run time? We have found that our databases, that use a mandatory "LATIN1_GENERAL_BIN", have incorrect SSIS Merge Join output. Changing our database collation in testing didn't make a difference. What matters is the data. Which Windows collation is SSIS using?
Example Data:
FIRSTNAME
FIRSTNAME
FIRSTS-A-NAME
FIRSTS_A_NAME
FIRST_NAME
FIRST_NAME
FIRSTname
FIRSTname
FIRS_NAME
put in a Sort task before the Merge Join task as setting advanced properties isn't enough (as described by Eric Johnson here --> [URL] ......
We are using 64-bit SQL Server 2008 R2 w/ SP1 in Windows Server 2008 R2 ENT w/ SP1.
UPDATE from ETL team: Explicitly ordering the source with "COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AS" seems to have the same effect as using a separate sort task. We don't feel that we can rely on our findings, however, unless we have documentation that this collation is what is behind SSIS.
Refer to my query thread on msdn SQL site, how I can achieve the result.

I have an intermittent issue where some remote PC's occasionally fail to execute select queries that have a join or return multiple result sets, however simple one table select queries continue to work okay. When it does happen the PC's needs to be rebooted to get to work again. This may only happen some PC's while others continue to work away okay.
I am using a VB6 application and ADO to connect to the database and the error message I get is a General Network Error, Server Not Found when it fails to execute the query. I have ran SQL Profiler on the server and while simple select queries continue to run away okay, a query a join does not even seem to show up in the profiler. The program has been working fine for 15 years with 1000's of users and has only now become an issue on one site for a number of users. Have tried moving the database to a different server and swapping network cards on the local PC's but can't seem to find the cause. The processor and the memory don't seem to be under load, but I am not sure if there is something else in SQL that is causing it to hang under certain conditions.
There have been network analysts experts in to run scans on the network, but I have not had the results of this back yet. Other applications do not seem to be affected so if this analysis does not show up anything.
I have two servers (lets call them sA and sB) connected from sA -> sB via a linked server (i.e. sA pulls data across from sB).
I'm building a temp table full of stock symbols on sA, and then I need to update some values on sA using content on sB. The tables on sB are very large (about 500m rows) so I don't want to pull even close to everything across the linked server. Ordinarily I'd do this by joining to the linked server table, but the target table needs to have nolock on it due to their high use.
update t
set someValue = s.SomeValue
from #myTab t
inner join lnk_sB.xref.dbo.Symbols s with (nolock)
on t.id = s.id
From reading around I gather that nolock doesn't work across linked servers. It was noted in another SSC article that you could use nolock by using an OPENQUERY, but then I can't join to my local temp table, and I end up pulling all .5B rows across the linked server.
Is there some way I can limit the content on sB by my temp table on sA but still use nolock?
Hello,
I have a stored procedure where I run an insert statement. I want to knwo if it is possible to do it using a variable for the table name (either in-line or with an EXEC statement without building a string first and executing that string. See examples of what I am talking about in both cases below:
I want to be able to do this (with or without the EXEC) :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @NewTableNameOut as varchar(100)
Set @NewTableNameOut = 'TableToInsertInto'
EXEC(
Insert Into @NewTableNameOut
Select * From tableToSelectFrom
)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can not do the above because it says I need to declare/set the @NewTableNameOut variable (assuming it is only looking at this for the specific insert statement and not at the variable I set earlier in the stored procedure.
I can do it like this by creating a string with the variable built into the string and then executing the string but I want to know if I can do it like I have listed above.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @NewTableNameOut as varchar(100)
Set @NewTableNameOut = 'TableToInsertInto'
EXEC(
'Insert Into ' + @NewTableNameOut + ' ' +
'Select * From tableToSelectFrom'
)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is not an issue for my simple example above but I have some rather large queries that I am building and I want to run as described above without having to build it into a string.
Is this possible at all?
If you need more info please let me know.
