In my previous post I asked how to do the bottom question. I got a response to use a cursor, now I made an attempt to use a cursor but I still get the same response. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Another question for all you SQL experts, I have a lot of them. I am trying to select from a table wher some conditions need to be met based on an employee ID. What I am doing is when the rank is a 1,2, or 3 I pick up the text description of that rank. Can I make it so that I get the ID only once and all the text descriptions are on the same line. Here is the sql script along with my current output and my desired output.

Has anyone ever tried to use a cursor as an output variable to a stored proc ?
I have the following stored proc - CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.myStoredProc @parentId integer, @outputCursor CURSOR VARYING OUTPUT AS BEGIN TRAN T1 DECLARE parent_cursor CURSOR STATIC FOR SELECT parentTable.childId, parentTable. parentValue FROM parentTable WHERE parentTable.parentId = @parentId OPEN parent_cursor
SET @outputCursor = parent_cursor
DECLARE @childId int DECLARE @parentValue varchar(50) FETCH NEXT FROM parent_cursor INTO @childId, @parentValue WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN SELECT childTable.childValue FROM childTable WHERE childTable.childId = @childId
FETCH NEXT FROM parent_cursor INTO @childId, @parentValue END
CLOSE parent_cursor DEALLOCATE parent_cursor COMMIT TRAN T1 GOAnd, I found that I had to use a cursor as an output variable because, although the stored proc returns a separate result set for each returned row in the first SQL statement, it did not return the result set for the first SQL statement itself.
My real problem at the moment though is that I can't figure a way to get at this output variable with VB.NET.Dim da as New SqlDataAdapter() da.SelectCommand = New SqlCommand("myStoredProc", conn) da.SelectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure Dim paramParentId as SqlParameter = da.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@parentId", SqlDbType.Int) paramParentId.Value = 1
Dim paramCursor as SqlParameter = daThread.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@outputCursor") paramCursor.Direction = ParameterDirection.OutputThere is no SqlDataType for cursor. I tried without specifying a data type but it didn't work. Any ideas?
Hi, I have a situation where I need to sort the output of a cursor. But since the sort criteria are rather complex, I am NOT able to use the Order By clause directly with the cursor definition statement.
Hence, I need to have a solution where I will use a dummy (calculated) field within the CURSOR and I want the output of this cursor sorted by the dummy field that I calculated within the cursor itself.
Please let me know the different possibilities in this scenario.

I needed to run following cursor and get the result exported to excel file. But Cursor retrives two resultset and while exporting to excel spreadsheet , it is the only first resultset without second resultset. How can it be exported to excel as a single resultset combined of first and second one.
My server is MS Sql Server 2005. I'm using com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver as the driver class. I've established a connection to the database.
I'm trying to invoke a stored procedure using JDBC and a callable statement. The stored procedure has a parameter @CurOut CURSOR VARYING OUTPUT. How do I setup the callable statement so the output parameter is accepted by the driver?
I'm not really trying to pass a cursor up to the database Server but I'm wanting a cursor back from the stored procedure that is other than the result set or other value the stored procedure returns.
First problem: What java.sql.Types (or SQL Server specific) value do I specify for the out parameter I'm registering on the CallableStatement?
Second problem: What do I set the value of the parameter to?
buddies,situation: a processing must take place on every row of a table, andoutput results to another table, that can't be done via an insertinto..select query (let's assume that it's not possible for now).There're 2 solutions I have in mind:1) open a cursor and cycle through each row (The table can have up to1M rows)2) create a clustered index (i.e on an identity column) then have aloop like:declare @i int, @rows int,@col1 varchar(20), @col2 varchar(20),... @coln varchar(20),@outval1 varchar(20),... -- output valuesselect @i=1, @rows = max(xid) from tblname -- xid is clustered indexedwhile (@i<=@rows)beginselect @col1 = col1, @col2 = col2,...@coln = colnfrom tblnamewhere xid = i-- do the processing on the variables-- then insert results to another tableset @i = @i+1endI'd like to know your ideas of which one would be more efficient. Anyother solutions are much appreciatedthanks,Tamy
I have a stored procedure that rertrieves data from an sql database and sends out a mail to each receipient who meets the criteria
I am using SQL mail.
I dynamically generate the where clause for my sql query based on criteria taken from other stored procedures and store it in a varchar variable called @sqlquery
When i have the following code to run my cursor
DECLARE overdue3 CURSOR LOCAL FORWARD_ONLY FOR SELECT DISTINCT Events.E_Name, Events.E_SDate, Events.E_City, Events.E_ID FROM Events, IndustryEvents + @sqlquery2 OPEN overdue3
I get an error message at the '+' sign which says, cannot use empty object or column names, use a single space if necessary.
What should i do. i have tested the variable @sqlquery and it is definately not blank. There is no bracket error or anything.

I know You can write a Sp with cursor and do this, but I would like to know if you can accomplish the same thing by a select or case or something else instead of a cursor.
I am trying to do dynamic Select for Cursor. The dynamic would be like this: IF CONDITION1 IS TRUE: SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView WHERE CustomerTenderID = @CustomerTenderID IF CONDITION2 IS TRUE: SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView WHERE CustomerTenderID = @CustomerTenderID AND CustomerSiteID = @CustomerSiteID
etc etc
Here's the cursor
DECLARE RateList CURSOR FOR SELECT CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, ContractPeriod, SupplierID FROM dbo.tnd_TenderSiteRateConsumptionView WHERE (BASED ON CONDITION) ORDER BY CustomerTenderID, CustomerSiteID, SupplierID, ContractPeriod
OPEN RateList FETCH NEXT FROM RateList INTO@CustomerTenderID, @ReturnedCustomerSiteID, @ReturnedContractPeriod, @ReturnedSupplierID WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN SET @rowNum = @rowNum + 1

FETCH NEXT FROM RateList INTO@CustomerTenderID, @ReturnedCustomerSiteID, @ReturnedContractPeriod, @ReturnedSupplierID
I need to dynamically construct the field order of a cursor based on fixed labels from another table, but when I put that resulting query I receive the error:

I have 6 fields defined in the cursor select, and 6 parameters in the fetch. The results of running the @sql portion returns valid data. Should this be possible to define a parameter containing the select clause of the cursor?
select colnum, coldesc, colname into #ae_defs from ae_adefs select @Sql = (select colname from #ae_defs where coldesc = 'PATIENT NAME') + ', ' + (select colname from #ae_defs where coldesc = 'PATIENT NUMBER') + ', ' + (select colname from #ae_defs where coldesc = 'ACCOUNT NUMBER') + ', ' + (select colname from #ae_defs where coldesc = 'VISIT DATE') + ', ' + (select colname from #ae_defs where coldesc = 'VISIT TYPE') + ', DocID from ae_dtl1'

How could i use a variable like @DB_Name in my select ?
I'm trying to build a select statement for a CURSOR where part of the SQL statement is built using a variable. The following fails to parse:
Declare Cursor1 Cursor For 'select table_name from ' + @database + '.Information_Schema.Tables Where Table_Type = ''Base Table'' order by Table_Name' Open cursor1
That doesn't work, I've also tried using an Execute() statement, no luck there either. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to get a cursor to work when I'm passing in a variable for a column name of the select statement. For example:
declare @col varchar(50)
set @col = 'Temperature'
declare notifycurs cursor scroll for select @col from Table
Obviously this won't work correctly (since the result will simply be 'Temperature' instead of the actual float value for temperature). I tried to use quotes for the entire statement with an EXEC (ie. exec('select '+@col+' from Table' ) but that gave me an error.
Is there a way to pass in a variable for a column name for a curor select statement????
Using the sys.databases & sys.sysindexes views to display all the columns with a clustered index for all tables and all databases in a given server. So the end result will have 3 columns:
Database name Table name Column name from that table with a clustered index
I have already created the following script which displays all the databases for a given server:
declare @DBname nvarchar(128) declare testCursorForDB cursor for select name from sys.databases with (nolock) where name not in ('master','tempdb','model','msdb') order by name
open testCursorForDB fetch next from testCursorForDB into @DBname
while @@fetch_status = 0 begin print @DBname fetch next from testCursorForDB into @DBname end
close testCursorForDB deallocate testCursorForDB
I also have created the following query which will display all the table and column names which have a clustered index for a given database:
select object_name(i.id) as TableName,
i.name as IndexName from sys.sysindexes as i with (nolock) where i.indid = '1'
However, what I need help/advice on is how do I combine these two together into one working script (either using nested cursors or a better way). In other words, how can I specify which database to use (ie. using the "use database_name") so that my query above will be applied to each database found within the cursor.
an example for the pb 1)First i have created a dynamic cursor :
DECLARE authors_cursor CURSOR DYNAMIC FOR Select DISTINCT LOCATION_EN AS "0Location" from am_location WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7 OPEN authors_cursor FETCH first FROM authors_cursor
2)The result for this cursor is for expamle 'USA'.
3) If now i do an update on that location with a new value 'USA1'
update am_location set location_en = 'USA1' WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7
4)now if i fetch the cursor , i''ll get the old value (USA) not (USA1).
If i remove DISTINCT from the cursor declaration , the process works fine .
the cursor at the bottom iterates only to print the number of rows.The problem is in the select. This takes 30 seconds to iterate through 1242 records.But if I add a TOP 1000000 or whatever number to the select, the same iteration takes less than a 1 second.I've tested each query without cursor, and both have the same cost and performance. (Not exactly the same plan)Note that I got the same performance improvement declaring the cursor as STATIC.Why the top is affecting the cursor iteration so much?
An example for my pb 1) Created a dynamic cursor : DECLARE cursor_teste CURSOR DYNAMIC FOR Select DISTINCT name from table WHERE ID = 1 OPEN cursor_teste FETCH first FROM cursor_teste 2)The result for this cursor is for example 'teste'. 3) If now i do an update on that name with a new value 'teste1' than if i fetch the cursor , i''ll get the old value (teste) .
any idea how to make a select distinct result in a dynamic Cursor?
col1 col2 col3 col4 36930.60 145 N . 00 17618.43 190 N . 00 6259.20 115 N .00 8175.45 19 N .00 18022.54 212 N .00 111.07 212 B .00 13393.05 67 N .00 In above 4 col if col3 value is B then cursor has to fectch appropriate value from col4. if col3 value is N then cursor has to fectch appropriate value from col1. here col2 values are unique.
I have a table when user add new sales or puchase will be added to this table ITEM_TXNS. The above date is part of the table for a ProductID . (The field is removed here) In order to calculate the balance amount using moving average, I must calculated the cost_out_amt first on the fly. When user add new sales I also need to determine the cost/unit for a product id using moving average. The problem is I can not just use sum, because i need to determine cost_out_amt for each sales first which will be calculated on the fly. The reason i dont store the cost_out_amt (instead calculate on the fly) because User could Edit the previous sales/purchase txn or Insert new sales for a previous date. Example THe record with ID 9. By Adding this txn with ID 9, would cause all the cost_out_amt will be incorrect (Using moving Average) if i store the cost_amout_out on entrying txn and need to be recalculated. Instead I just want to calculate on the fly and able to determine the cost avr for a specific point of time. Should I just use Cursor and loop all the record and calculate the cost or maybe I can just use on Select Statement?
Hi I am ramesh here from go-events.com I am using sql mail to send out emails to my mailing list
I have difficulty combining a select statement with a where clause stored in a variable inside a cursor
The users select the mail content and frequency of delivery and i deliver the mail
I use lots of queries and a stored procedure to retrieve thier preferences. In the end i use a cursor to send out mails to each of them.
Because my query is dynamic, the where clause of my select statement is stored in a variable. I have the following code that does not work
For example
DECLARE overdue3 CURSOR LOCAL FORWARD_ONLY FOR SELECT DISTINCT Events.E_Name, Events.E_SDate, Events.E_City, Events.E_ID FROM Events, IndustryEvents + @sqlquery2 OPEN overdue3
I get an error message at the '+' sign which says, cannot use empty object or column names, use a single space if necessary
How do I combine the select statement with the where clause?
The stored procedure, below, results in this error when I try to compile...
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure InsertImportedReportData, Line 69 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'.
However the select statement itself runs perfectly well as a query, no errors.
The T-SQL manual says you can't use the keywords COMPUTE, COMPUTE BY, FOR BROWSE, and INTO in a cursor select statement, but nothing about plain old ORDER BYs.
What gives with this?
Thanks in advance R.

Hi friends, I want to select only filename column of sp_helpdb's output.But I don't know how should I do this? Other way is doing a direct select from sysfiles or sysdatabases but as you know microsoft doesn't recommand this way. Also I can select that filed in my application level but it is strange for me: Of course sql server should has a proper way to do a select from output curosr of this procedure,Doesn't it? -Thanks in advance

in an ideal world i'd like to be able to have the header the name of the field data - eg

test1 |123 |456 test2 |123 |456 test3 |123 |456
I can use - select name,field1data from table where field1 in ("in","out")but this returns each piece of data as a new row - eg:

I have stored procedure .In SP i am using cursur to load data from Parent to several child table.
I have attached the script with this message.
And my problem is how to use direct select and insert or load to speedup the process instead of cursor.

Here the SELECT query is fetching the records corresponding to ITEM_DESCRIPTION in 5 separate transactions. How to change the cursor to display the 5 records in at a time in single transactions.

Here is my problem: I have a strored procedure that inserts some records
into one table and then selects some records from another table at the end.
The stored procedure takes several parameters, first one of them is marked as
OUTPUT. I'm using it to return an id of the inserted record. The procedure is called from asp.net code with first parameter set as ParameterDirection.InputOutput (tried with just Output as well). Now for the problem: if the the select statement at the end returns 0 records everything works and i my first parameter contains the @@IDENTITY value from the insert statement like it is supposed to.
If the select statement at the end returns 1 or more records my output parameter is not updated at all and contains the same value as before the procedure was run. All the records are inserted correctly.
if i try to return the @@identity as a plain select statement instead of through the parameter i get System.DBNull.
I hope you can shed some light on this for me. Here is my stored procedure:
INSERT INTO INQUIRY (LibraryName, ContactName, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone, Email, Comment) VALUES(@libraryName, @contactName, @address, @city, @state, @zip, @phone, @email,@comment)
--i tried including this statement at the end as well but that did not do the
--trick either
select @inquiryId=@@IDENTITY FROM INQUIRY
set nocount on declare @separator_position int -- This is used to locate each separator character declare @objectId varchar(200) -- this holds each array value as it is returned
if(@productIds is not null) begin while patindex('%,%' , @productIds) <> 0 begin select @separator_position = patindex('%,%' , @productIds) select @objectId= left(@productIds, @separator_position - 1) INSERT INTO PRODUCT_INQUIRY_LOOKUP (ProductId,InquiryId) VALUES(@objectId, @inquiryId) select @productIds = stuff(@productIds, 1, @separator_position, '') end end set nocount off
Select Distinct Email from vPRODUCT_CONTACT WHERE ProductId in (Select ProductId From Product_Inquiry_Lookup Where InquiryId=@inquiryId)
I have a stored procedure where in a cursor I create a dynamic select statement. If I have a non-zero result set (check @@rowcount) I output a message. The problem is I do not know how to supress the output of the execute of the dynamically created select statement. All I want going to output is the message. I know ISQL has this function, and so does EM. How do I do it totally within a stored procedure.
I'm looking for some good hints and tips for reprogrammin an old VB module I just found.
Basically what it does, is receive an input parameter (an int), does a select [name row] from Names where Name_id = [input parameter] and turns this into a string if multiplenames appear.
E.g. result set: John, Josh, Jock turns it into string "John Josh Jock".
So its piece of cake creating a stored procedure selecting data on the base of an input parameter. Select X from Y where Z = @input... the trick is, I don't know how to do arrays in TSQL as in VB.
In the VB edition I create an array, load the names into it, I do a count on how many row the select returns and then a simple for... next adding the names to the string.
Any good examples on how to do this in a sql-server stored proc?
Thanks,
Trin
P.S. This is what I have pieced together this far:
DECLARE medlemcursor CURSOR FOR SELECT [MCPS Kode] FROM DW.dbo.names(NOLOCK) WHERE number = @number
OPEN medlemcursor
FETCH NEXT FROM medlemcursor INTO @tempinstt WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1) BEGIN SET @instrument = @instrument + @tempinstt + '-' FETCH NEXT FROM medlemcursor INTO @tempinstt END
CLOSE medlemcursor DEALLOCATE medlemcursor
SELECT @instrument GO
Just doesn't seem to work, returns NULL, even though I've checked that the cursor SELECT statement actually returns data,
