How can be used in a stored procedure the name of a table that was passed as a varchar parameter? The table name must be used in the "from" clause of a "select" statement without calling the "EXECUTE" or "sp_executesql". Is it possible?

which is more efficient...which takes less memory...how is the memory allocation done for both the types.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHello to all!
I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...
Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanx,

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
declare @tTable(col1 int)
insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.
Here is the scenario,
I have 2 stored procedures, SP1 and SP2
SP1 has the following code:
declare @tmp as varchar(300)
set @tmp = 'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET ( ''SQLOLEDB'', ''SERVER=.;Trusted_Connection=yes'',
''SET FMTONLY OFF EXEC ' + db_name() + '..StoredProcedure'' )'
EXEC (@tmp)
SP2 has the following code:
SELECT *
FROM SP1 (which won't work because SP1 is a stored procedure. A view, a table valued function, or a temporary table must be used for this)
Views - can't use a view because they don't allow dynamic sql and the db_name() in the OPENROWSET function must be used.
Temp Tables - can't use these because it would cause a large hit on system performance due to the frequency SP2 and others like it will be used.
Functions - My last resort is to use a table valued function as shown:
FUNCTION MyFunction
( )
RETURNS @retTable
(
@Field1 int,
@Field2 varchar(50)
)
AS
BEGIN
-- the problem here is that I need to call SP1 and assign it's resulting data into the
-- @retTable variable
-- this statement is incorrect, but it's meaning is my goal
INSERT @retTableSELECT *FROM SP1
RETURN
END
My Pocket PC application exports signature as an image. Everything is fine when choose Use SQL statements in TableAdapter Configuration Wizard.
main.ds.MailsSignature.Clear();
main.ds.MailsSignature.AcceptChanges();
string[] signFiles = Directory.GetFiles(Settings.signDirectory);
foreach (string signFile in signFiles)
{
mailsSignatureRow = main.ds.MailsSignature.NewMailsSignatureRow();
mailsSignatureRow.Singnature = GetImageBytes(signFile); //return byte[] array of the image.
main.ds.MailsSignature.Rows.Add(mailsSignatureRow);
}
mailsSignatureTableAdapter.Update(main.ds.MailsSignature);
But now I am getting error "General Network Error. Check your network documentation" after specifying Use existing stored procedure in TableAdpater Configuration Wizard.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.Insert_MailSignature( @Singnature image )
AS
SET NOCOUNT OFF;
INSERT INTO MailsSignature (Singnature) VALUES (@Singnature);
SELECT Id, Singnature FROM MailsSignature WHERE (Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY())
For testing I created a desktop application and found that the same Code, same(Use existing stored procedure in TableAdpater Configuration Wizard) and same stored procedure is working fine in inserting image into the table.
Is there any limitation in CF?

I am working with the following two tables:
Category(NewID,OldID)
Link(CategoryID,BusinessID)
All fields are of Integer Type.
I need to write a stored procedure in sql 2000 which works as follows:
Select all the NewID and OldID from the Category Table
(SELECT NewID,OldID FROM Category)
Then for each rows fetched from last query, execute a update query in the Link table.
For Example,
Let @NID be the NewID for each rows and @OID be the OldID for each rows.
Then the query for each row should be..
UPDATE Link SET CategoryID=@CID WHERE CategoryID=@OID
Please help me with the code.

Hello
Is it possible to insert data into a temp table with data returned from a stored procedure joined with data from another table?
insert #MyTempTable
exec [dbo].[MyStoredProcedure] @Par1, @Par2, @Par3
JOIN dbo.OtherTable...
I'm missing something before the JOIN command. The temp table needs to know which fields need be updated.
I just can't figure it out
Many Thanks!

I am having 2 tables. One is main table and another is history table. Whenever I update the main table, I need to insert the all the main table data to History table, before updating the main table.
Overall it is like storing the history of the table updation.
How do i write a stored procedure for this?
Anybody has done this before?
Pls help me.
I've never used a stored procedure before - let alone created one. how to append records from table A to table B.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am having a SP which returns two Rowsets:
create proc GetSalesDetails as
select CustName, ProductPurchased from Customers where PurchaseDate > '10/10/2006'
select ProductName from Products where SalesDate > '10/10/2006'
Now in my code when I am filling the Dataset using this SP then it is giving the Table Names as "Table" and "Table1". Is there any way to get the actual table names respectively?

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?
Hi guys
I have a stored procedure that a make crosstab table , In this table the main column is "job titles" these jobs must be ordered in certain way , for example "1st managers then engineers … workers … " so In the table that job titles are defined there is also a column named "Ranking" so the" job titles" could be sorted appropriately by ranking order .
The problem is I cannot have the "Ranking" column with my crosstab table so I need to load it in a view or something like that.
Any Idea?

I've got a stored procedure which should update a table (add new customer record)
When I run it locally everythings fine,
Since uploading it all to the web it no longer seems to add a new record,
I've debugged it and it seems that the output parameters is set to nothing.
I believe it's a permissions issue but the user i'm using has full access to both the table
and permission to execute the stored procedure is there any error handling I can
do to capture the exact error? the code I use to execute the sProc is below
thanks for any help

Try
myConnection.Open()

Return custNo.ToString()

Error handling in to show me the error?

Hi,
I have some questions about locking tables in stored procedures. I got some excellent tips from my last post, but since it's sort of a different problem I figured I'd post it separately.
I have a large log table I need to do manual, periodic clean-up process on, which basically is purging unneccessary log-entries. The idea is to select out the 1-3% I need to another table, drop the old table, and rename the new table to the old one.
The problem is that I most likely will need to lock the entire table while I do all the clean-up stuff. If a client manages to add things inbetween this is going on, I could end up loosing data.
The table looks like this:
Logid PK
LogTypeID -- what category
LogValue --
LogTime -- when it occurred
My imaginary stored procedure looks something like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE ShrinkDB AS
-- 1)
"lock table log" -- do I have to do something like this?
-- 2)
select * into log_keep FROM Log where
(
logtypeid <> 2020 AND -- activity played
logtypeid <> 5020 AND -- database connected
-- ....etc et..... about 10 different things I don't need to keep
or logtime > dateadd(d, -1, getdate()) -- keep everything from last 24 hours
)
-- 3)
drop table log
-- 4)
EXEC sp_rename 'log_keep', 'log'
GO
I'm not able to figure out wether I need to run some sort of "Lock" command or not, or if everything inside a stored procedure automatically is locked. If so, I shouldn't worry about loosing any data I guess??
Hopefully it works that way, but if not I assume I'll run into these two problems:
- If a client logs immediately after the Selecet, could data be logged AFTER the select, but BEFORE the drop table-command? In which case I guess I would loose data?
- Immediately after the drop table log in step 3, there's no table named 'log' in my database. 'Log' will be "created" when I run step 4. This means I could perhaps loose data since the client for a brief moment can't log data to the 'log' table?
Hopefully someone can clearify this for me, I've read the documentation, but I don't feel too sure on this subject.... :-)
