Has anyone had a problem where the stored procedure does not return the same results as compared to running the same SQL in ISQL? This happens when rows are added to a table that's in a join and the SP doesn't return those rows. Once it starts happening, it will not work consistently, but it doesn't always happen when new rows are added to a table. It has happened to many stored procedures and with many different tables. sp_recompile won't fix the problem. Only dropping and re-adding the SP will fix the problem with that stored procedure. We are using SQL 6.5.
Seems like I'm stealing all the threads here, : But I need to learn :) I have a StoredProcedure that needs to return values that other StoredProcedures return.Rather than have my DataAccess layer access the DB multiple times, I would like to call One stored Procedure, and have that stored procedure call the others to get the information I need. I think this way would be more efficient than accessing the DB multiple times. One of my SP is:SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, S.Name AS 'StatusName', S.ItemDetailStatusID, S.InProgress as 'StatusInProgress', S.Color AS 'StatusColor',T.[Name] AS 'TypeName', T.Prefix, T.Name AS 'ItemDetailTypeName', T.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails I INNER JOIN Item.ItemDetailStatus S ON I.ItemDetailStatusID = S.ItemDetailStatusID INNER JOIN [Item].ItemDetailTypes T ON I.ItemDetailTypeID = T.ItemDetailTypeID However, I already have StoredProcedures that return the exact same data from the ItemDetailStatus table and ItemDetailTypes table.Would it be better to do it above, and have more code to change when a new column/field is added, or more checks, or do something like:(This is not propper SQL) SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailStatusInfo I.ItemDetailStatusID, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailTypeInfo I.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails IOr something like that... Any thoughts?
I need to keep track of the number of hits on a particular page. Im using a stored Procedure
What I want to do is get the number of hits and increment it by one :)
ie: Sub Procedure should be like below
SELECT noOfHits WHERE pageName = 'bla bla'
noOfHits = noOfHits + 1 etc.
Also, some of the pages will be added and deleted all the time, so before I increment the noOfHits variable I need to check that the pageName 'bla bla' exists. AND if it doesnt I need to create a pageName called 'bla bla'
What I need to do in essence is:
1. Check that a particular row exists. if it doesnt create it. 2. Increment a value (by one) to a column in this particular row.
Phew. Hope you got that. Any ideas much appreciated,
I have created multiple stored procedures that search different tables for similiar information.
Is it possible to have one main stored procedure that calls and executes each of these individual stored procedures and then use the UNION keyword to combine the results?
For example
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Return_Detail]
@IDVarChar(200)
AS
--Get the 1st Detail EXECReturn_1st_Detail @ID = @ID
UNION
--Get the 2nd Detail EXECReturn_2nd_Detail @ID = @ID GO
Hi. Does anyone know how to display the results if i execute "xp_fixeddrives, xp_availablemedia and xp_subdirs" commands with VC++ 6.0? I can't obtained the results using Recordset class. Can someone help me? Thank you.
In my SPs, I commonly have a situation, where a SELECT statement gets a single scalar value (e.g. SELECT Name FROM Employee WHERE id=@id) from a table.
Because the result is still a relation, I cannot process it directly or assign the result to a variable (like set @name = SELECT Name FROM Employee WHERE id=@id)
So, how can I process the results of the statement in this case.
In some other cases, the result is actually a relation. And I want to iterate over all rows, processing each row's columns. (I know this smells of ADO.NET, but how can I help it if I am coming from that background)...
The point is I want to do all this in T-Sql on server side!!!
I have a stored procedure which simply does a SELECT on a table. This table has as a column a uniqueidentifier, which is not part of the PK. If I execute this procedure with the SQL Server tools, it works fine and returns the expected results. If I execute this SP with Visual Studio, or ASP.NET, no results are returned and the following comes back:Running [dbo].[spServiceDetail_Get] ( @ServiceDetailID = <DEFAULT>, @VictimWitnessID = <DEFAULT>).ServiceDetailID VictimWitnessID --------------- -------------------------------------- No rows affected.(1 row(s) returned)@RETURN_VALUE = 0Finished running [dbo].[spServiceDetail_Get]. Any ideas what is going wrong? This seems to be a common problem for many of our tables with a uniqueidentifier in them, and is specifically with VS 2005 and ASP.NET ObjectDataSources.
I want to know the differences between SQL Server 2000 storedprocedures and oracle stored procedures? Do they have differentsyntax? The concept should be the same that the stored proceduresexecute in the database server with better performance?Please advise good references for Oracle stored procedures also.thanks!!
With 2005 SP1. Have built a SSIS package that successfully saves a checkpoint file and sometimes successfully restarts. (I've also built some others that are 100% reliable).
On the unsuccessful restart it appears as though the failed steps and subsequent steps do not execute. the package appears to "complete" though and the checpoint file is removed as though everything is fine.
On a successful restart the failed step reexcutes and everything works fine.
The issue appears that when a failed step finishes at the same time as a successful step finishes there is contention in the process that writes the checkpoint file out and the checkpoint file is corrupt. The failing step runs in parallel with a successful step and the execution times are very similar so task A may complete before or after task B.
Contents of a good checkpoint file follows <DTS:Checkpoint xmlns:DTS="www.microsoft.com/SqlServer/Dts" DTS:PackageID="{3BFFF2F9-74BA-4CE9-8435-81CC198E8144}"><DTS:Variables DTS:ContID="{3BFFF2F9-74BA-4CE9-8435-81CC198E8144}"/><DTS:Container DTS:ContID="{3655F83D-5EA5-4F16-9B8F-520582A1229A}" DTS:Result="0" DTS:PrecedenceMap=""/><DTS:Container DTS:ContID="{DB2D7A57-D405-4B11-AF4A-41B331EE3F15}" DTS:Result="0" DTS:PrecedenceMap=""/><DTS:Container DTS:ContID="{DFC6A95F-CCFA-4FD9-B604-FCBD722B47D8}" DTS:Result="0" DTS:PrecedenceMap="YYY"/></DTS:Checkpoint>

I have setup a box as a SQL 2005 Express Server. It accepts remote connections and has the users/permissions setup. Both TCP/IP and Named Pipes are enabled.
When connecting to the server with MS SQL Server management Studio Express from another machine, on the same network, I have to try and login several times before it connects OK.
Can anyone suggest how to increase connection reliability please?
This Might be a really simple thing, however we have just installed SQL server 2005 on a new server, and are having difficulties with the set up of the Store Procedures. Every time we try to modify an existing stored procedure it attempts to save it as an SQL file, unlike in 2000 where it saved it as part of the database itself.
What is the best way of reliably closing a cursor inside a BEGIN CATCH block? The simple problem statement is: I want to check if the cursor is open, then close it. I'm trying to use CURSOR_STATUS function and it seems to return a -3 (both when the cursor is open and not open.). Is this a bug or am I missing something?
I have removed all of my code and only provided what is necessary to repro the problem.
Our current project involved into managing NTFS hierarchical folders structured by multi-level customers and associated projects for them. Essentially each folder level represents one level of customer hierarchy or project root. Both have different subfolders and user access rights for them based on generic XML templates. The folders resided on file servers across the country and should be accessible in ordinary way NTFS file shares are allowing. LAN/Intranet MS AD Win2003 / SQL2005 environment. The folder management system basically have to keep the folder structure in tact with changes in underlying managing application logic. That involves such operations as creating a new folder with subfolders, copying a folder with its content into another folder branch (which may be on the same or another server and place), deleting a folder/content, renaming a folder, applying NTFS access rights to folders and subfolders for users according generic templates. As all these actions are unreliable and some tasks may take hours to complete, SSB approach seems to be the viable solution. Some tasks involved have to be done within 10 minutes, others (are prolonged) have to be scheduled for overdnight run. Windows service like EA sample may be used to start the actual NTFS related tasks. Content transfer involves WMI remoting with robocopy tool on target machine (for better network utilization), other related tasks make use of WMI APIs and probably do direct (i.e. synchronous) calls to the remote target file server. At this stage, making atomary executable modules that do just one functionally isolated task like DirCopy, DirCreator, DirRename, DirDelete, DirUserAccess seems like somewhat logical choice. The questions starting to arise from SSB queues planning to adoption of ExternalActivator sample to run these atomic executables. The problem is that if SSB messages contain atomic tasks for these executables, they needed to be syncronized in two ways - by execution precedence (create or copy dir first, then apply users' access rights) and transactionally (only when all related tasks succeed, the appropriate feedback action and event log writing can be taken.
I can imagine two implementation scenarios below. Case A. Create common queue for directory creating, content transfer and access rights. In that case ExternalActivator has to be either extended & re-designed or it has to activate another Activator-Coordinator (middleway) executable, that would actually read the queue and, based upon the message type, run the appropriate atomary executable. In that scenario, the queue processing would be stalled because if the previous task was content transfer and lasts, say access rights to them can't be started before the transfer task has been finished OK. That in turn probably will require running multiple instances of the atomary tasks and using conversation groups, wouldn't it? What would be the most reliable and simple way to achive that?
Case B. Dedicated queues for each atomary executable modules. Neither EA changes nor extra Activator-Coordinator middleway executable required. But because the atomary task-oriented queues are not syncronized with each other the queues internal conversation groups wouldn't help much... That means if a directory not yet exists, userRights module have to wait. But, what if we are transferring directories from path X to Y, based on what the userRights module knows to wait? With zero asynchronous design experience I'm lost here... Hope I described the app domain understandably, thanks for hints leading to the working solution!
Using SQL 2005, SP2. All of a sudden, whenever I create any stored procedures in the master database, they get created as system stored procedures. Doesn't matter what I name them, and what they do.
For example, even this simple little guy:
CREATE PROCEDURE BOB
AS
PRINT 'BOB'
GO
Gets created as a system stored procedure.
Any ideas what would cause that and/or how to fix it?
How do I search for and print all stored procedure names in a particular database? I can use the following query to search and print out all table names in a database. I just need to figure out how to modify the code below to search for stored procedure names. Can anyone help me out? SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'
I have MSSQL 2005. On earlier versions of MSSQL saving a stored procedure wasn't a confusing action. However, every time I try to save my completed stored procedure (parsed successfully ) I'm prompted to save it as a query on the hard drive.
How do I cause the 'Save' action to add the new stored procedure to my database's list of stored procedures?
We recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. We had several stored procedures in the master database and, rather than completely rewriting a lot of code, we just recreated these stored procedures in the new master database.
For some reason, some of these stored procedures are getting stored as "System Stored Procedures" rather than just as "Stored Procedures". Queries to sys.Objects and sys.Procedures shows that these procs are being saved with the is_ms_shipped field set to 1, even though they obviously were not shipped with the product.
I can't update the sys.Objects or sys.Procedures views in 2005.
What effect will this flag (is_ms_shipped = 1) have on my stored procedures?
Can I move these out of "System Stored Procedures" and into "Stored Procedures"?
Hi, How can I store a stored procedure's results(returning dataset) intoa table?Bob*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
I am writing a set of store procedures (around 30), most of them require the same basic logic to get an ID, I was thinking to add this logic into an stored procedure.
The question is: Would calling an stored procedure from within an stored procedure affect performance? I mean, would it need to create a separate db connection? am I better off copying and pasting the logic into all the store procedures (in terms of performance)?
Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created' returns an int value as 1 (performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created') but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie: exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1' which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc): SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example). My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert). Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

datagrid. Sorry, I'm new to it. For the few times I've done datagrids in the past, I've built my own selects and filled the grid. This time I need to use someone elses stored procedure. I simply don't know how to get the results back into my VB datagrid. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
I am trying to execute a stored procedure (which returns multiple tables) and use these results to populate an Excel file. I am totally lost on how to capture the results and use it. Any help will be appreciated.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_CrimRecTest] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @caseID [nvarchar]

When I run this with an EXEC statement, the result pane shows no results but the message pane says it completed successfully and one row is affected. I know my input data is good. I also get nothing when I call this sproc from a VB front end. Any ideas?

Hello I have two stored procedures @ID INT AS SELECT (CASE WHEN NUM >= 10 THEN CAST(PAID AS FLOAT) / CAST(NUM AS FLOAT) * 100 WHEN NUM < 10 THEN 0 END) AS PER FROM (SELECT (SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1 FROM Event_data AS D LEFT OUTER JOIN Events AS E ON E.id = D.Event_id WHERE (D.Transaction_type = 1) AND (D.Player_id = @ID)) AS NUM, (SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1 FROM Event_data AS D LEFT OUTER JOIN Events AS E ON E.id = D.Event_id WHERE (D.Transaction_type = 1) AND (D.Transaction_value > 0) AND (D.Player_id = @ID)) AS PAID) AS X and @ID INT AS SELECT P.*,'/' + DBO.GETCHIPFOLDER(@ID) + '/' + ISNULL(P.PHOTO,'BLANK.GIF') AS PIC,ISNULL( (SELECT SUM(TRANSACTION_VALUE) FROM EVENT_DATA WHERE PLAYER_ID=@ID AND TRANSACTION_TYPE=1 GROUP BY PLAYER_ID),0) AS WINNINGS FROM PLAYERS P undefined P
The first returns a percentage for player wins, the second gives me a photo and sums the player winnings I would like to combine the results so I can get the percentage and wininngs in one query, in another matter all together I would like create a procedure like the first but instead of returning only one player, I would like to return the percentage for each player Thanks in advance for any light you can shine on this.
