SQL Server 2012 :: Table Returning Function With Input Table Name As Parameter
Nov 19, 2014I'm using SS 2012.
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@Source_Tbl sysname
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl
)
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
The input table can have several thousand rows.

T-SQL: Is It Possible To Pass A Table As Parameter?
Dec 7, 2007Can a table be passed as parameter to a T-SQL procedure or function?One can define a temporary table within a procedure, and the system then manages its lifetime, keeps it separate from other instances executing the same procedure, etc: - CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.name (@Parameter1, @Parameter2) AS BEGIN DECLARE @name TABLE (column list) etcPerfect: but I need to be able to have another [recursive] procedure process this table. How do I make it available to the second procedure? If I write EXEC procedure @Namean error message "Must declare the variable '@Name'" is produced. Within the 2nd procedure, an attempt to name a table within the parameter list results in another error message, "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'TABLE'". If I can't pass it as argument/parameter, then how do you process a temporary table in another procedure? Do I pass a cursor to it? Or is it quite impossible?Regards, Robert Barnes.

SqlDataSource Using A Type Parameter Of Table
Oct 8, 2006I am not sure (and I've been known to overlook things) if it is possible to use a Table parameter type as parameter to a stored procedure? Is it possible? I would prefer not to create a SQL batch statement calling an stored proc w/ one parameter over and over. Instead i'd rather just create the stored proc to take a table parameter and pass the table into the stored proc. I know I could use a CSV string of IDs instead of a table... or I could create a big SQL batch and use that. But I'd rather not. Could anyone provide some guidance? Thanks!Joe

Stored Proc Parameter For Table Name
Sep 29, 2004Recently someone told me that I could use a Parameter in a Stored Proc as a text placeholder in the SQL Statement. I needed to update a table by looping thru a set of source tables. I thought NOW IS MY TIME to try using a parameter as a table name. Check the following Stored Proc
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Update]
@DistributorID int,
@TableName varchar(50)
AS
UPDATE C
SET C.UnitCost = T.[Price]
FROM (tbl_Catalog C INNER JOIN @TableName T ON C.Code = T.Code)
GO
NEEDLESS TO SAY this didn't work. In reviewing my references this seems to be a no no.
Is it possible to use a parameter as a table name? OR is there another way to do this?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Passing Table Name As Parameter To Function
May 24, 2008Hi all.
I'm writing reports in Rep. Services that reads data from Dynamics NAV (Navision). In NAV data are stored by company and this is implemented by using the company name as prefix to the table name. This means that in a NAV database with three companies (lets call these companies A, B and C) we will have three tables with customers. The table names will be A$Customer, B$Customer and C$Customer.
Now to my problem:
I wan't to write one report where I can choose company. I do not want to use a stored procedure. I want to use a function so I can use the function in select statements and join several functions to build up a report that needs data from several tables.
Is there some way to pass the table name or a part of the table name to a function that returns the content of the actual table? I know I can pass parameters that I can use in the where clause, but is it possible to do it with the table name. Or is there any other way to solve this.
All ideas are welcome. Thanks.
