SQL Server 2012 :: Dynamic Return Type In A Function
Mar 3, 2015
I have created a function that will check whether the data is null or not. If its null then it will display that as No data else it will display the original value. Below is the function
GO
Object: UserDefinedFunction [dbo].[fnchkNull] Script Date: 3/4/2015 12:01:58 PM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
[code]...
The code is working good. However i want the return type to be dynamic. If the data type supplied is integer then i want to return a integer value like 0 if its null. if the data value is varchar then i want to return 'No Data'.

My overarching goal is to generate sets of random Symptom records for each Enrollee in a drug study, so that for each cycle (period of time), the code will insert a random number of random records for each enrollee.
I'm trying to return a number of random records from a table, but inside a table-valued function... (which could be my problem).
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.ufn_GetTopSymptoms (
@enrollID INT
, @CTCVersion VARCHAR(20)
, @NumRecords INT
)
RETURNS TABLE
[Code] ....
But that ORDER BY NEWID() clause is illegal apparently, because here's the error it throws:
Msg 443, Level 16, State 1, Procedure ufn_GetTopSymptoms, Line 13
Invalid use of a side-effecting operator 'newid' within a function.
I was hoping I could return a set of enrollmentIDs and then use CROSS APPLY to generate a random set of records for each enrollmentID... is this not possible with APPLY? I was trying to avoid using a cursor...
The idea is basically to create all the Symptom records for all the patients in treatment cycle at once by using Enrollee OUTER APPLY dbo.ufn_GetTopSymtoms(dbo.Enrollment.EnrolleeID)
but that's clearly not working. Is there a way to do this without resorting to a cursor?

I'm trying to convert the query immediately below into a function with the conditional logic to return a VARCHAR value with the gender: male, female or unknown.
SELECT empid, firstname, lastname, titleofcourtesy,
CASE
WHEN titleofcourtesy IN('Ms.', 'Mrs.') THEN 'Female'
WHEN titleofcourtesy = 'Mr.' THEN 'Male'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS gender
FROM HR.Employees;
GO
Below is the conditional logic function I'm trying to create to replicate the logic above.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Gender
(
@male AS VARCHAR(10),
@female AS VARCHAR(10),
@unknown AS VARCHAR(10)
)
RETURNS VARCHAR(10)
[Code] .....

Ok 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.

I'm a Reporting Services New-Be.
I'm trying to create a report that's based on a SQL-2005 Stored Procedure.
I added the Report Designer, a Report dataset ( based on a shared datasource).
When I try to build the project in BIDS, I get an error. The error occurs three times, once for each parameter on the stored procedure.
I'll only reproduce one instance of the error for the sake of brevity.
[rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the query parameter 'UserID' contains an error : [BC30654] 'Return' statement in a Function, Get, or Operator must return a value.
I've searched on this error and it looks like it's a Visual Basic error :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8x403818(VS.80).aspx
My guess is that BIDS is creating some VB code behind the scenes for the report.
I can't find any other information that seems to fit this error.
The other reports in the BIDS project built successfully before I added this report, so it must be something specific to the report.
BTW, the Stored Procedure this report is based on a global temp table. The other reports do not use temp tables.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks,

I have rather simple CLR function:
[SqlFunction(IsDeterministic = true, DataAccess = DataAccessKind.None)]
public static SqlString GetUserName()
{
return (SqlString)WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name;
}
When I get result from .NET console app, I get correct answer "JungleSektor". However, when SQL Server executes this code, it gives me "NT ServiceMSSQL $ SQL2014". How to get correct result?

Can we pass dynamic values while pivoting?
Here is example
Declare @a date, @b date

I'm trying to create a cte to return a list of lots and every period between the first and last transaction date for each lot. I've gotten this far:
SELECTIntLotKey
,DATEPART(YYYY, StartDate)StartYear
,DATEPART(MM, StartDate)StartPeriod
,DATEPART(YYYY, EndDate)EndYear
,DATEPART(MM, EndDate)EndPeriod
[Code] ....
This gives me the following results:
IntLotKeyStartYearStartPeriodEndYearEndPeriod
271532013120135
28468201312201312
2846920131201312
2847020131201312
28472201312201312
593022013120131
593032013120131
Now what I need is something that looks like this:
LotKeyYearPeriod
2715320131
2715320132
2715320133
2715320134
2715320135
[Code] .....
Some lots may not have any transactions for some of the periods between the start and end dates but I need to report every period between the start and end period for each lot. I have a period table that I thought I could use but haven't come up with a way to get the results I'm after.

i'm building a query to return metrics that will drive 3 seperate pivot tables showing
1. Total count of LineItems per D_Type each month
2. Total count of LineItems per Status each month
3. Avg count of LineItems per Invoice each month
I am able to get the first two, but having hard time with the 3rd.
Here's some representative ddl
create table Remediation
(Invoice nvarchar(10), D_Type nvarchar(20), Status nvarchar(20), RemediationDate datetime);
insert into Remediation values
--this will create data for Jan, 2014
('501', 'Recycle', 'Pass', getdate()-30),
('501', 'Reuse', 'Pass', getdate()-30),
('501', 'Remarket', 'Fail', getdate()-30),
[code]....
how to add the average metric to this query?

Very basically, I need to return a result set based on another value and only if there are multiples of that other value.
Example. select * from mytable
Returns (--column separater)
John---1---1
John---1---1
John---2---2
John---3---3
John---3---3
John---4---4
So I want a query that would return only
John---1---1
John---1---1
John---3---3
John---3---3
The query cannot be something as simple as this:
Select * from mytable where John=1 or John=3
I have to many possible results to plan like that. I am thinking some kind of aggregate with a group.

In a t-sql 2012 select statement, I have a query that looks like the following:
SELECT CAST(ROUND(SUM([ABSCNT]), 1) AS NUMERIC(24,1)) from table1. The field called [ABSCNT] is declared as a double. I would like to know how to return a number like 009.99 from the query. I would basically like to have the following:
1. 2 leading zeroes (basically I want 3 numbers displayed before the decimal point)
2. the number before the decimal point to always display even if the value is 0, and
3. and 2 digits after the decimal point.

<BS>
<B Id="5" />
<B Id="3" />
<B Id="4" />
<B Id="6" />
<B Id="15" />
<B Id="7" />
</BS>
When I insert this into a temp table, the order get mixed up.
SELECT I.value('@Id', 'INT') ProductId
INTO #ProductList
FROM @Products.nodes('/BS/B') AS T(I)
When I select out of #ProductList the order is random and different from the XML.

I am trying to pivot some data as you would normally however I am trying to also group the pivot into three sub column groups too.
Basically the scenario is that I have three sub groups Budget, Person, RenewalDate for each Service (Service being the pivot point). So for each unique service I want to display the budget person and renewal date for each service by company.
I have created two tables to illustrate the base data and the required output.
How to do this dynamically because the number of Services is unknown, i.e. it could be 4 Services or 20, each with three sub columns, budget, person and renewal date.
Please find code below. It should be quite self explanatory as to what I am trying to do.
IMPORTANT:
1. I really need it to be dynamic
2. the Services are not standardised names, they are numbered for illustration purposes only, they vary in naming convention.
create table #BaseData
(
Company nvarchar(100),
Person nvarchar(50),
[Service] nvarchar(100),
Budget int,
RenewalDate datetime
)
[Code] .....

3. Is creating partition occupies more disk space?
4. Is every partition would need index?

I am creating a dynamic query where i am appending a where clause something like -
IF (@CurCaptureDate IS NOT NULL)
SET @where_clause = @where_clause + CHAR(10) + 'AND CD.CaptureDate = ' + @CurCaptureDate
PS - CD.CaptureDate is datetime and @CurCaptureDate is also datetime
but when executing , it gives this error - Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 169 Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.
i am not able to use convert here with these quotes.
i tried this - SET @where_clause = @where_clause + CHAR(10) + 'AND CD.CaptureDate = ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),@CurCaptureDate )
but it makes it to -
AND CD.CaptureDate = Jul 19 2014 12:00AM. I would need the date in quotes.

I have a table with the following data;

INSERT INTO #Tab (Data)
Select 'Apple=5,Orange=10,Banana=11' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple=10,Orange=1033,Banana=0' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple = 120,Orange = 1,Banana = 112'
Select * from #Tab
How do I replace every value before the '=' but leave the comma.
Here is what the final output should look like
CREATE TABLE #TabFinal (Data Varchar(100))
INSERT INTO #TabFinal (Data)
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana'
Select * from #TabFinal

I have a procedure where after processing, i am required to send multiple message to calling application.
For ex:
create procedure test as
(@a as int,
@b as int
@c as int )
/*
some transformations */
print 'variable a is' + @a;
print 'variable b is' + @b;
print 'variable c is' + @c;
I am only providing a sample of return messages, but in reality there a lot more messages where a string and a parameter value need to concatenated.Unfortunately print is not allowing to concatenate parameter value.I can use RaiseError, but these messages are not really any error messages.
i tried to concatenate all message and output it using OUT type parameter, but the length of all messages combined exceeds 10000 characters.
Is there any other alternate to send these messages out to application?

SQL Server 2012 Standard SP 1.
Stored procedure A calls another stored procedure B. Rowcount is set properly in called procedure B, but does not seem to return it to calling procedure A. Otherwise the two stored procedures are working correctly. Here is the relevant code from the calling procedure A:
declare @NumBufferManagerRows int = 0;
exec persist.LoadBufferManager @StartTicks, @EndTicks, @TimeDiff, @NumBufferManagerRows;
print 'BufferManagerRows';
print @NumBufferManagerRows;
Print statement prints @NumBufferManagerRows as 0.
Here is the called stored procedure B:
CREATE PROCEDURE [persist].[LoadBufferManager]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@StartTicks bigint,
@EndTicks bigint,
@TimeDiff decimal(9,2),
@NumRows int OUTPUT

I have two dynamic pivot tables that I need to join. The problem I'm running into is that at execution, one is ~7500 characters and the other is ~7000 characters.
I can't set them both up as CTEs and query, the statement gets truncated.
I can't use a temp table because those get dropped when the query finishes.
I can't use a real table because the insert statement gets truncated.
Do I have any other good options, or am I in Spacklesville?
