Hi.
I am trying to store the column value to a variable from a distributed query.
The query is formed on the fly.
i need to accomplish something like this
declare @id int
declare @columnval varchar(50)
declare @query varchar(1024)
@Query = "select @columnval = Name from server.database.dbo.table where id ="+convert(varchar,@ID)
exec (@query)
print @Columnname

Hello all:
Here is a sample query:
DECLARE @KEYID NVARCHAR (50) ; SET @KEYID = '1074958'
DECLARE @ENTITY NVARCHAR (100); SET @ENTITY = 'HouseDimension'
DECLARE @KeyCol NVARCHAR(50);
SET @KeyCol = (SELECT LEFT(@ENTITY, (SELECT CHARINDEX( 'DIM', @ENTITY) -1)) )+ 'Key'
DECLARE @KeyValue NVARCHAR (1000)
SET @KeyValue = 'SELECT '+ @KeyCol + ' FROM HouseManagementFact WHERE HouseKey = ' + @KEYID +
' GROUP BY ' + @KeyCol + ' HAVING SUM(TotalClaimCount) > 0 OR SUM(HouseCount) > 0 '
The value resulting from Executing @KeyValue is an integer.
I want to store this value in a new variable say @VAR2
When I do this
DECLARE @VAR2 INT
SET @VAR2 = execute sp_executesql @KeyValue
its giving me an error.
can somebody let me know the correct form of storing the value resulting from @KeyValue in some variable ?
Hello All,

Hello Again, did you miss me?
ok now i have this problem. I need to make a query that return one single data. I need to store this data in a variable. Something like that:
DECLARE @A VARCHAR(50)
@A=SELECT mycolumn FROM mytable WHERE mycolumn = 'Something'
There is a form to do it?
Thanks Friends
Hello,
I am interested in what the simplest was to get a query result that will only ever have one result (ie One column, one row) into a variable. An ugly way is to use a cursor that simply fetches the first row but that seems to be a horrible way to do it and it has sometimes major drawbacks sometimes (mainly if I have to dynamically choose the table). Surely there is a better way?
What do you think? A simple example would be nice.
Cheers

can any one help me out in this.....
Thnx

The following query is failing when trying to apply the
MAX(field_x_order)
to the variable @max
Note the x is represented by the string variable @stri
declare @i int
declare @stri varchar(10)
declare @max int
set @i = 18
set @max = 0
while @i < 49
begin
set @i = @i + 1
set @stri = cast(@i as varchar(10))
select @max = MAX(field_ + @stri + _ORDER) FROM table_name WHERE field_ + @stri + IS NOT NULL -- error: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'IS'.
exec ('UPDATE display_1a SET field_' + @stri + '_order = field_' + @stri + '_order ' + @max + 'WHERE field_' + @stri + ' IS NULL')
end
I have also tried:
select MAX(field_ + @stri + _ORDER) INTO @max = FROM display_1a WHERE field_ + @stri + IS NOT NULL -- error: Incorrect syntax near '@max'.
and:
select @max = ('SELECT MAX(field_' + @stri + '_ORDER) FROM display_1a WHERE field_' + @stri + ' IS NOT NULL') -- error: Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'SELECT MAX(field_19_ORDER) FROM display_1a WHERE field_19 IS NOT NULL' to data type int.
Thanks,

Hi!
Is it possible to set a query result (scalar) to scalar variable. I would like to set a qery result (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM MyTable) to a scalar variable:
DECLARE @temp int
SET @temp = query result...
Is it possible? I couldn't find the way to do that...
I have a dynamic query which returns me a result and I want to capture that value to make further use of it in the same code. Is that possible??
exec ('select col_nm from table_name'). i want the result of this query to be captured.

Hi:
Is there a way to assign a dynamic query result to a local variable?
declre @sqlString nvarchar(4000),
@minEventDate datetime,
@databaseName varchar(25)
selct @databaseName = 'customer_12345'
(actually, a cursor loop will assign the database name dynamically, here just to simplify the situation)
select @sqlString =
'select ' + @minEventDate + '= (select min(eventDate) from ' + @databaseName + '.dbo.tblABC)'
exec sql_executesql @sqlString
print '@minEventDate: ' + cast(@minEventDate as varchar(19))
Though the select min(eventDate) from customer_12345.dbo.tblABC
returns a date, ex. '02/01/2004 12:35 pm', however, the printed @minEventDate is always with Null value. It mean, the value was never correctly assigned to the local variable.
As an alternate way, I am using temp table to insert it with the query result and then assign to the local variable. Since I have many local variables to try to get the min, max, count for around 10 fields, perfer a way to direct assign to the local variable instead of 10 temp tables.
thanks

I have an Execute SQL Task that executes "select count(*) as Row_Count from xyztable" from an Oracle Server. I'm trying to assign the result to a variable. However when I try to execute I get an error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "RowCount": "Unsupported data type on result set binding Row_Count.".
Which data type should I use for the variable, RowCount? I've tried Int16, Int32, Int64.
Thanks!
I have a table with dates and values and other columns. In a proc i need to get the result as Month and the values for all the months whether or not the data exists for the month.
The Similar table would be-
create table testing(
DepDate datetime,
val int)
insert into testing values ('2014-01-10 00:00:00.000', 1)
insert into testing values ('2014-05-19 00:00:00.000', 10)
insert into testing values ('2014-08-15 00:00:00.000', 20)
insert into testing values ('2014-11-20 00:00:00.000', 30)
But in result i want the table as -
Month Value

I am trying to code a WHERE xxxx IN ('aaa','bbb','ccc') requirement but it the return values for the IN keyword changes according to another column, thus the need for a CASE function.
WHERE GROUP.GROUP_ID = 2 AND DEPT.DEPT_ID = 'D' AND WORK_TYPE_ID IN ( CASE DEPT_ID WHEN 'D' THEN 'A','B','C' <---- ERROR WHEN 'F' THEN 'C','D ELSE 'A','B','C','D' END )
I kept on getting errors, like
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 44Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'WHERE'.
which leads me to assume that the CASE ... WHEN ... THEN statement does not allow mutiple values for result expression. Is there a way to get the SQL above to work or code the same logic in a different manner in just one simple SQL, and not a procedure or T-SQL script.

I have to use sql cmd and run diagnostic queries.
I need to run multiple dmvs as a batch file and storing the dmv result to some place.
Is it possible to assign multiple columns from a SQL query to one variable. In the below query I have different variable (email, fname, month_last_taken) from same query being assigned to different columns, can i pass all columns to one variable only and then extract that column out of that variable later? This way I just need to write the query once in the complete block.
DECLARE @email varchar(500)
,@intFlag INT
,@INTFLAGMAX int
,@TABLE_NAME VARCHAR(100)

I'm trying to write a SQL that stores a result from a stored-procedureinto a temporary table.Is there any way of doing this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI know this can be done, because I saw it and tried it once. But did not use it at the time and consequently forgot how.
I am storing an expression to a variable @Var Varchar(50)
@Var = ('aa','bb','cc')
I want to:
Select * from Table WHERE Field IN @Var
Substituting my variable for the " ('aa',bb','cc') which I can build dynamically...thus the use.
Purpose:
I have an aggregate query that currently has a CASE statement based on the contents of ('aa',bb','cc'). However, those contents can change. The aggregate will not allow the subquery (SELECT Field FROM Table).
What I remember looked something like:
SELECT * FROM Table WHERE field in ' & @Var &'.

I am retrieving a <NULL> value out of a SQL database, displaying it in a text box, then updating the database with the results of the text box.
I am using the following code to make the insert.
.Parameters("@BodilyInjuryPerson").Value = txtBodilyInjuryPerson.Text
When I have values for the text string, everything runs smoothly. However, when the database originally had a <NULL> or when I want to delete the currently existing value and replace it with a <NULL>, I get an error message stating... "Input string was not in a correct format".
Back in the old days, when I was using Random Access databases, you just inserted a Char(0). But that doesn't work any more.
Could somebody help me. I know there is a magic bullet, I just don't know what it is.
When I update a field f1 I should store its previous value in the field f2. How can I achieve this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm loading millions of rows into a database table. This data contains a lot of dedcimal values of 4 or 6 decimal places somtimes more.
I've found that storing them as floats is inaccurate, and I'm storing as decimals of the appropriate length.
I'm concerned whether this is the right way to do this ?
Can anyone make any suggestions, perhaps an article that I should take a look at ?

I have a parameter which should take multiple values into it and pass that to the code that i use. For, this i created a parameter and temporarily for testing i am passing some values into it.Using a dynamic SQL i am converting multiple values into multiple records as rows into another variable (called @QUERY). My question is, how to insert the values from variable into a table (table variable or temp table or CTE).OR Is there any way to parse the multiple values into a table. like if we pass multiple values into a parameter. those should go into a table as rows.
