Stored Procedure Version Of SELECT Statement - Can't Understand Why It's Not Working
Apr 25, 2006
Hi,
[I'm using VWD Express (ASP.NET 2.0)]
Please help me understand why the following code, containing an inline SQL SELECT query (in bold) works, while the one after it (using a Stored Procedure) doesn't:
I executed them and got the following results in SSMSE: TopSixAnalytes Unit AnalyteName 1 222.10 ug/Kg Acetone 2 220.30 ug/Kg Acetone 3 211.90 ug/Kg Acetone 4 140.30 ug/L Acetone 5 120.70 ug/L Acetone 6 90.70 ug/L Acetone ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Now, I try to use this Stored Procedure in my ADO.NET-VB 2005 Express programming: //////////////////--spTopSixAnalytes.vb--///////////
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim sqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source = .SQLEXPRESS; Integrated Security = SSPI; Initial Catalog = ssmsExpressDB;")
Dim sqlDataAdapter As SqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdaptor("[spTopSixAnalytes]", sqlConnection)
'Pass the name of the DataSet through the overloaded contructor
'of the DataSet class.
Dim dataSet As DataSet ("ssmsExpressDB")
sqlConnection.Open()
sqlDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet)
sqlConnection.Close()
End Sub
End Class ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I executed the above code and I got the following 4 errors: Error #1: Type 'SqlConnection' is not defined (in Form1.vb) Error #2: Type 'SqlDataAdapter' is not defined (in Form1.vb) Error #3: Array bounds cannot appear in type specifiers (in Form1.vb) Error #4: 'DataSet' is not a type and cannot be used as an expression (in Form1)
Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance, Scott Chang
More Information for you to know: I have the "ssmsExpressDB" database in the Database Expolorer of VB 2005 Express. But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly. I try to learn "Working with SELECT Statement in a Stored Procedure" for printing the 6 rows that are selected - they are not parameterized.
Hi, Please help me in this problem... i am new to sql server.. i am using sql server version 8...(doesnot support function with retun values..) so i have created a procedure... -----------procedure------------------(to find next monday after 6 months)------------------- [code] create proc next_Monday ( @myDate DATETIME ) as BEGIN set @myDate = dateadd(mm, 6, @myDate) while datepart(dw,@myDate) <> 2 begin set @myDate = dateadd(dd, 1, @myDate) end select @myDate end go [/code] -------------------------------------------------------- i can able to execute this procedure separately.... working well... but don't know how to call it inside another query.... the following throws error.... select smaster.sname, smaster.Datex, 'xxx'=(execute next_monday smaster.Datex) from smaster please help me... how to fix this problem...
I have written a stored procedure which has in it a select statement. This returns a single record (I used the "top 1" line to ensure I only get a single record). I want to use a value returned by this statement (not the primary key) further on in the stored procedure - so assigning it to a variable would be handy.
Hi there, I am trying to return data from a select statement that is running a stored procedure.
I am running on SQL 2000 SP4. I have created a 'loopback' linked server as described in a technet article. (It's pointing at itself) I can then use the following select statement to get data back in the select statement from a stored procedure.
select * from openquery(loopback,'exec DWStaging.dbo.PokerStaging')
I am trying to get data back from my own Stored Procedure, but continue to get the following error:
Server: Msg 7357, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Could not process object 'exec DWStaging.dbo.PokerStaging'. The OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' indicates that the object has no columns. OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: OLE DB provider unable to process the object:ProviderName='SQLOLEDB', Query=exec DWStaging.dbo.PokerStaging'].
If I try the same syntax with the sp_who stored procedure, it works and I get data back fine. But, If I try it with the sp_who2 stored procedure I get the same error as above.
select * from openquery(loopback,'exec sp_who') --> Works fine select * from openquery(loopback,'exec sp_who2') --> Doesn't work
Does anyone know what the difference is between the Stored Procedures that work with this syntax and those that don't? Is there a way I can change my stored procedure such that it would cause it to work?
PS: The following code was used to create the linked server, and then a security pass though as a certain account was addedDECLARE @provstr varchar (2000) SET @provstr = 'PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;SERVER=' + @@SERVERNAME EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'loopback', @srvproduct = 'MSSQL', @provider = 'SQLOLEDB', @provstr = @provstr
Hello,I have written a stored procedure where I prompt the user for the Year and the Month (see below)How do I take the variable @TheMonth and find out how many days is in the month and then loop to display a total for every day in the selected month.Can someone please point me in the right direction.

Is there a way to call a stored procedure within a SELECT statement?Example;-----------SELECT FirstName, LastName, (EXEC UniqueID_KEYGEN @keyval output) AS UniqueIDINTO #tNewEmployeeFROM EmployeeTable-----------SELECT *FROM #tNewEmployeeThe return from the temp table would have a unique ID ready to insert into another table. Our DBA has this stored procedure to create unique ID's and is to be used on all INSERTS. I was used to having a Identity field do this for me, I don't know why we have to do it his way. Except for the reason of sequence and easily get the next record. But we don't use URL variables, only FORM or SESSION.Thanks for your help in advance.
I have a stored procedure in an Informix-database that returns a string. Its used in a SELECT statement like this. SELECT t1.id, t2.id, sp_name(t1.id, t2.id) FROM table1 t1, table2 t2
I want to write it in SQLserver. I have tried this syntax but get error. Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1 Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 't'.
Can a stored procedure be executed from within a select statement?
Given a store procedure named: sp_proc
I wish to do something like this:
For each row in the table execute sp_proc 'parameter1', parameter2'... end for ...but within a select statement. I know you can do this with stored functions, just not sure what the syntax is for a stored procedure.
Can this be done? I want to call a stored procedure from inside a select statement. Since you can nest select statements, I thought it might be possible but I have no idea how to do it.

I need to run a stored procedure on all the results of a select query.For a simplified example, I'd like to be able to do something likethis:SELECT JobID, QtyToAddFROM JobsWHERE QtyToAdd > 0Then for the results of the above:EXEC sp_stockadd @JobID, @QtyToAddWhere the above line ran for every result from the above select query.Anyone able to shed some light on how to do this?Many thanks,James
Is it possible to have an entire sql select statement as the input variable to a stored procedure? I want the stored procedure to execute the select statement.
ie.
exec sp_SomeFunc 'select * from table1 where id=1'
It may sound weird, but I have my reason for wanting to do it this way. Is this possible? if so, how do I implement this inside the stored procedure?
Hi all,I have created this simple Stored procedure. But it gives me wrong result when I pass a parameter to it. But if I hard code it, it gives me the right result. The I check if the field value of 'Email' is exactly equal to the parameter '@Email'. The field 'Email' is varchar, and CID is integer. CREATE PROCEDURE EmailExists @Email varcharASSELECT CIDFROM CustomersWHERE Customers.Email = @Emailreturn Instead, if I check the value directly, it gives me correct answer. The the following code works fine when I typethe Email directly in the code. CREATE PROCEDURE EmailExists @Email varcharASSELECT CIDFROM CustomersWHERE Customers.Email = 'tomyseba@yahoo.com' return Can anyone tell me the reason for it. Thanking you in advance
I would like to have a stored procedure executed once a week via a DTS package. The data I would like inserted into Table_2, which is the table where the DTS is being executed on, comes from a weekly dump from Oracle into a Table_1 via another DTS package.
I would like to only import data since the last import so I was thinking of my logic to be like this:
INSERT INTO Table_2 (Field1, Field2, ... , FieldN) VALUES (SELECT Field1, Field2, ... , FieldN FROM Table_1 WHERE ThisDate > MAX(Table_2.ThatDate))
Does this make sense? Or do you all suggest a different mannger of accomplishing this?
Select columnname from tablename order by ordercolumn
We will call that "sp_foldersOfFile". It takes 1 parameter, a fileID (int) value.
The result when I execute this from within Management Studio is a single column of 1 to n rows. I want to use these values in another stored procedure like this:
Select @userCount = COUNT(*) from permissions where UserID = @userID and (projectid = @projectID or projectid=0) and clientid = @clientID and folderpermissions in (dbo.sp_FoldersOfFile(@fileID))
The Stored Procedure compiles but it does not query the folderpermissions in the selected values from the sp_FoldersOfFile procedure. I'm sure it is a syntax issue.
I have a stored procedure on a SQL Server 2008 database. The stored procedure is very simple, just a SELECT statement. When I run it, it returns 422 rows. However, when I run the SELECT statement from the stored procedure, it returns 467 rows. I've tried this by running both the stored procedure and the SELECT statement in the same SSMS window at the same time, and the behavior is the same. The stored procedure is:
USE [REMS] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [mobile].[GetAllMobileDeviceUsers] Script Date: 12/04/2014 */ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[Code] ....
When I do this in the same SSMS window:
exec mobile.GetAllMobileDeviceUsers
SELECT ee.EmployeeID, EmployeeName = LastName + ', ' + FirstName FROM EmployeeInvData ee --UNION
[Code] ....
I get two result sets. The first is 422 rows; the second is 467 rows. Why?
I have a stored procedure that I have written that manipulates date fields in order to produce certain reports. I would like to add a column in the dataset that will be a join from another table (the table name is Periods).
USE [International_Forecast_New] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[GetOpenResult] Script Date: 01/07/2014 11:41:35 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO
[Code] ....
What I need is to add the period, quarter and year to the dataset based on the "Store_Open" value.
For example Period 2 looks like this Period Quarter Year Period Start Period End 2 1 20142014-01-27 2014-02-23
So if the store_open value is 02/05/2014, it would populate Period 2, Quarter 1, Year 2014.
I'm trying to put together a very simple page where you can click the up and down button to move the item up or down in the list and save the new list into the database. I've run the stored procedure... and it works so Its not a procedure problem. Here is the list in my databaseOrder_Id Item Position1 Sebring 12 GrandPrix 23 Accord 44 Miati 3 When I go to click the button I get a object reference not set to an instance of an object...

it posts and the page loads but the data is still the same in my datagrid. what could be wrong with this simple statement... i've tried testing the statement above with constant values of the correct type but i don't think that matters because the SqlCommand() accepts a string only anyways.. doesn't it?
SELECT DATEDIFF(n , LAG(CAST(Date AS DATETIME) + CAST(Time AS DATETIME), 1) OVER ( ORDER BY Date, Time ), CAST(Date AS DATETIME) + CAST(Time AS DATETIME)) FROM [DataGapTest]
Gives the right output:
NULL 1 1 3548 0
However, when I put the statement in a function, I get only zeros as the output. It's as if the lag and current value are always the same (but they are not of course).
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.GetTimeInterval(@DATE date, @TIME time) RETURNS INT AS BEGIN DECLARE @timeInterval INT SELECT @timeInterval = DATEDIFF(n , LAG(CAST(@Date AS DATETIME) + CAST(@Time AS DATETIME), 1) OVER ( ORDER BY Date, Time ), CAST(@Date AS DATETIME) + CAST(@Time AS DATETIME)) FROM dbo.[DataGapTest] RETURN @timeInterval END
When distributing a SQL Server database to customers we need to be able to tell which version of a stored procedure is currently installed on the user's machine. Does 6.5 or 7.0 provide any way to monitor versions like this?

My product was developed for and works correctly on SQL Server 2000. However, when we upgraded to 2005, we found that certain system stored procedures were different, causing our product to break.
We can easily change our stored procedures to work in 2005, but we have a large client base, some of whom will be using each version. Our current solution is to check the version of SQL Server during installation and choose which script to use at that time in order to have an appropriate stored procedure for that version, but we are concerned about users who install our product with SQL Server 2000 and then upgrade to SQL Server 2005.
How can I make a stored procedure that will run differently depending on the version? I tried something like:
if (select charindex('2000', @@version)) > 0
begin -- SQL Server 2000
SELECT
... FROM
... WHERE end else -- SQL Server 2005
SELECT
... FROM ... WHERE end
Unfortunately, the system tables I'm selecting from have different stuctures in the different versions (one example is msdb.dbo.sysjobschedules and msdb.dbo.sysschedules), and even though the code never gets into the SQL Server 2000 section on 2005, it parses the whole procedure for errors before allowing it to be saves and will not allow this.

I am calling a stored procedure from asp.net and there is a cursor in the stored procedure that does some processing on serval tables.
if i run the stored procedure on Query Analyzer it works and does what it is suppose to do but if i run it from my asp.net/module control it goes. acts likes it worked but it does not do what is suppose to do. i believe the cursor in the stroed procedure does not run where is called programmatically from the asp.net/module control page.plus it does not throw any errors
