There are 3 ACTUAL_SEVERITY value: 1-High, 2-Medium and 3-Low
I need the final result be like:
Policy High Medium/Low
How do I write the script with out using temp table or cursor?
Below are my temp tables
--DROP TABLE #Base_Resource, #Resource, #Resource_Trans;
SELECT data.*
INTO #Base_Resource
FROM (
SELECT '11A','Samsung' UNION ALL
[Code] ....
I want to loop through the data from #Base_Resource and do the follwing logic.
1. get the Resourcekey from #Base_Resource and insert into #Resource table
2. Get the SCOPE_IDENTITY(),value and insert into to
#Resource_Trans table's column(StringId,value)
I am able to do this using while loop. Is there any way to avoid the while loop to make this work?
I just want to know which one is more efficient cursor or temp table for looping through a record set?
I am basically looking for better performance and server utilization.
Hi all,
I have a task of rewriting all the old procs which were build on cursors, the management does want me to remove the cursor completely since that would mean rewriting everthing.. they want to use a temp table and run a cursor on the temp table. Since there are many cursors in each proc. Any suggestions on to go about it. I am against the use of cursor any everywhere in it , even if it calls for rewriting the whole db again.
I did some tests on running the old proc and the semi new proc , which runs a cursor from the temp table for the cursor query. And it even bad than the cursor only. what does this mean? Is it really a very bad idea to run cursor on a temp table?
Necessity is the mother of all inventions!
Hi Chaps,
I want to write a stored procedure in which I will update the all calendar week values (stored in a table). And to achieve this I will have to loop through all the records present in calendar table.
I am just wondering that should I use Cursor or TEMP table (caz of performance issues)?
As it will be part of data warehouse so all the processing will be carried out at SERVER ( means no client)
Can any one tell me that which would be the best solution ( Cursor or Temp table) in my case and WHY?
Note: I am using SQL Server 2005 standard edition
waiting for quick reply.

Anas

I need to call a sproc about 1000 times and build a table from all the results.
How do I write an insert statement that will take the recordsets from the sproc and put it into a temp table?
Hello,
Any help here much appreciated.
I am using sql server 2000 to perform address cleansing. there is a point in my scripting when a table i pass values to becomes read/write.
i suspect this is when i run a cursor through the table.
Is anyone able to confirm for me whether running a cursor changes a table's properties?
Many thanks.
Tim
Ps as the table seems to be read/write it is harder to tell if NULLs are in the table and this is messing with joins I have further down the track.
Hi ,
I have two tables within a SQL database. The 1st table has an identified column and column which lists one of more email identifers for a second table,
e.g.
ID Email
-- ----------
1 AS1 AS11
2 AS2 AS3 AS4 AS5
3 AS6 AS7
The second table has a column which has an email identifier and another column which lists one email address for that particular identifier, e.g.
ID EmailAddress
--- ------------------
AS1 abcstu@emc.com
AS2 abcstu2@emc.com
AS3 abcstu3@emc.com
AS4 abcstu4@em.com
AS5 abcstu5@emc.com
AS6 abcstu6@emc.com
AS7 abcstu7@emc.com
AS11 abcstu8@emc.com
I need to create a stored procedure or function that:
1. Selects an Email from the first table, based on a valid ID,
2. Splits the Email field of the first table (using the space separator) so that there is an array of Emails and then,
3. Selects the relevant EmailAddress value from the second table, based on a valid Email stored in the array
Is there any way that this can be done directly within SQL Server using a stored procedure/function without having to use cursors?
Many Thanks,

I am trying to create a temp table with a non-clustered index.
Originally I tried to create the index after I created the table.
This seemed to work fine, so I added my stored procedure to our Production environment.
However, when two users called the stored procedure at once I got the following error:
There is already an object named 'IX_tmpTableName' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
I then found that SQL Server does generate unique names for the temp table but not all the objects associated with the temp table if they are explicitly named.
This is easy enough to solve for a PRIMAY KEY or UNIQUE constraint because the do not have to be named.
Is there a way to create an non-clustered index on a temp table without naming it?
In a Stored Proc I am creating the following temp table and index:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[#ShipTo](
[Ship_to_Num] [int] NOT NULL,
[Country_key] [nvarchar](3) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_ShipTo] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[ship_to_Num] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
The stored Proc runs fine from "exec", but when you batch into a Job it gives the error that "PK_ShipTo" already exists! I even put in a drop table on #ShipTo, but the same effect.
I need to insert FK information into a temp table using database name and table name as a parameter.
I've been trying different ways, even with global temp table, but still doesn't work. Below is the code showing what I am trying to achieve. I want to avoid global temp table if possible.
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..##FKs') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE ##FKs
CREATE TABLE ##FKs (
[ForeginKeyName] [nvarchar](128) NULL,
[TableSchema] [sysname] NULL,
[TableName] [nvarchar](128) NULL,
[RelatedTableSchema] [sysname] NULL,
[Code] .....
I have been trying to write a cursor to fetch required data from table but somehow its running forever and inserting duplicate records.
I have a temp table named getInvoice where I have five important columns
1. invoice number
2.group
3.invoice status
4. Invoice Expiration date
5. Creation date time
and some other columns.One invoice number can belong to one or more group and there can be one or more records for a particular invoice number and group.
An example is below :
InvoiceNumber Group InvoiceStatus InvoiceExpirationDate CreationDateTime
579312 01 3 NULL 2003-03-24 00:00:00
579312 01 2 2015-12-14 00:00:00 2005-12-24 00:00:00
579312 02 2 2003-12-21 00:00:00 2005-10-12 00:00:00
321244 01 2 2015-12-21 00:00:00 2005-10-12 00:00:00
321244 01 3 2010-12-21 00:00:00 2010-12-21 00:00:00
My query condition is complex and that is why Im facing problem retrieving the output.I need a cursor for getting distinct invoice number from the table and for each invoice number I need to get the latest record for each invoice number and suffix combination based on creationdateand time column and if that record has invoice status of 2 and also the invoice expiration date can be either null or greater than today's date, then I need to get that record and put it in a temp table.
The query I wrote is below
declare myData cursor for
select distinct invoiceNumber from #getInvoice
declare @invoiceNumber varchar(30)
open myData
fetch next from myData into @invoiceNumber
while @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
[Code] .....
This query runs forever and doesn't stop.
DECLARE @id VARCHAR(10)
DECLARE myCursor CURSOR LOCAL FAST_FORWARD FOR
SELECT [ServersList] AS 'ID'
FROM dbo.Servers

How do loop a table server(serverlist,flag) table with these 2 columns.And ping each of the servers in the table and update the flag column to '1' if ping has been successfull or flag to '0' if ping has been unsuccessfull.
I'm working on building a report and asked a developer which table some data comes from in an application. His answer was the name of a 3500 line stored procedure that returns 2 result sets. I could accomplish what I'm trying to do using the second result set, but I'm not sure how to put that into a temporary table so that I could use it.
Here's my plan according to the Kübler-Ross software development lifecycle:
Denial - Ask the developer to make sure this is correct (done)
Despair - Look hopelessly for a solution (where I am now)
Anger - Chastise developer
Bargaining - See if I can get him to at least swap the order that the resultsets are returned
Acceptance - Tell the users that this can't be done at present.
Is it possible to return the results of a stored procedure into either a CTE or temp table?
In other words, is it possible to do this:
with someCTE as (
exec someStoredProc
)
or this:
exec someStoredProc into #tempTable
???
I would like to know if the following sql can be used to obtain specific columns from calling a stored procedure with parameters:
/* Create TempTable */
CREATE TABLE #tempTable (MyDate SMALLDATETIME, IntValue INT)
GO
/* Run SP and Insert Value in TempTable */
INSERT INTO #tempTable (MyDate, IntValue)
EXEC TestSP @parm1, @parm2
If the above does not work or there is a better way to accomplish this goal, how to change the sql?
I am trying to think of a way to read a control table, build the SQL statement for each line, and then execute them all, without using a cursor.
To make it simple... control table would look like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Control_Table](
[Server_Name] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[Database_Name] [varchar](255) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Control_Table] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[Code] ....
So if we then load:
insert into zt_Planning_Models_Plant_Include_Control_Table
values ('r2d2','planing1'), ('r2d2','planing7'), ('deathstar','planing3')
Then you would build a SQL script that would end up looking like the following (note all the columns are the same):
insert into master_models
Select * from r2d2.planning1.dbo.models
insert into master_models
select * from r2d2.planning7.dbo.models
insert into master_models
Select * from deathstar.planning3.dbo.models
I need to have a script where it ask the user for a value, the script will search for all records that match the value. Then it will display the numbers of records found and ask the user to enter a different value. The rest of the script will use this new value and increment by 1 n times as the number of records found. I started the script where it will ask for "HANDLE" and display the number of records found with that "HANDLE"
declare @HANDLE as varchar(30)
declare @COUNT as varchar(10)
declare @STARTINV as varchar(20)
set @HANDLE = ?C --This is the parameter to search for records with this value
set @STARTINV = ?C --User will input the starting invoice number
SELECT COUNT as OrderCount FROM SHIPHIST
where HANDLE = @HANDLE
I just can't figure out how to proceed to use the entered invoice # and increment by 1 until it reach the number of records found.
This will be the end results:
Count=5 --results from query
STARTINV=00010 --Value entered by user
Handle,Inv_Num
AAABBB,00010
AAABBB,00011
AAABBB,00012
AAABBB,00013
AAABBB,00014
Please help me to get the required result:
For each IDS in table1
- change the ids to numbers (eg. for '1,2,3' get the numbers (IntValue) 1, 2 & 3)
- in table2, find the maxVal for each number
- disply the table1..ids, number, table2..maxVal & table1..idsDesc,
order by table1..ids, table2..maxVal & IntValue
I have 2 tables, over milin records each. The Simplified versions of the tables looks like that:
create table table1 (ids varchar(100), idsDesc varchar(100))
go
insert table1 select '1,2,3', 'Description 1'
union all select '2,3,4', 'Description 2'
union all select '1,7', 'Description 3'
union all select '16,3,8', 'Description 4'
union all select '2,5,6,1', 'Description 5'
go
create table table2 (ids int, maxVal int)
go
insert table2 select 1, 10
union all select 2, 6
union all select 3, 12
union all select 4, 11
union all select 5, 66
union all select 6, 4
union all select 7, 3
-- union all select 8, 5 -- no value for 8
union all select 9, 6
union all select 16, 12
go
I have also function that returns table variable of numbers delivered from given string:
create function dbo.fn_StrToIntValues ( @str varchar(1000) )
returns @numsTbl table (IntValue int not null)
The command
select * from dbo.fn_StrToIntValues('1,2,33')
Returns --> intValue
1
2
33
Can I use SQL query and not cursor to get the following result ?
Required Output :
ids IntValue maxVal idsDesc
--------- -------- ------- ---------------
'2,5,6,1' 5 66 'Description 5'
'16,3,8' 16 12 'Description 4'
'2,3,4,9' 3 12 'Description 2'
'1,2,3' 3 12 'Description 1'
'1,7' 1 10 'Description 3'
Guys
Here's the scenario
create table data1 (dealid varchar(6) , datex smalldatetime , Tn INT)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('12345' , '31-12-2005' , 9999)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('12345' , '30-11-2005' , 9999)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('12345' , '31-10-2005' , 9999)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('98765' , '31-12-2005' , 2)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('98765' , '30-11-2005' , 1)
insert data1 (dealid , datex , Tn )
values ('98765' , '30-11-2005' , 0)
select * from data1
I need to update the Tn column from the default 9999 for the 3 rows in this table where the dealid is 12345 based on the value in the datex column so the row with the 'highest ie most recent date' gets a 0. I then need to assign the value 1 to the next highest and so on until all rows (in this case 3) get incrementing integer values. It's easy with a cursor but can't get my head round doing it in a set-based way
Any ideas

I have a table which table has :Identity Column (Identity), Schema name and Table_Name.
So I would like to write a cursor For each Table Count(*) from Table--@Cnt Int , Schemaname and Tablename need to store another table.
Implement a USP, using a cursor that scan the table, generate select count statement from configuration table and fire the select count statement and record the result of the query in the log table :
how can I write a cursor and Import Those results into to Another table.
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.
Can any one reply for this..............

I am using a cursor (i know - but this is actually something that is a procedural loop).
So effectively i have a table of names of stored procedures. I now have a store proc that loops around these procs and runs each one in order.
Now i am thinking i would like to be able to set the table it loops around in a variable at the start - is it possible to do this? So effectively use a tablename in a variable to use in the sql to define a cursor?
The below cursor is giving an error

Why does the delete statement give an error ?
