I have to build a dynamic query to go over to Oracle and get some data and bring it back via a SQL Server Stored Procedure. How I can create an IN clause passing values and ","s from a SQL Server Temp Table that I have already built.
SET @SQLQuery = @SQLQuery + 'WHERE MEMBER.MEMBER_ID IN (''''' + SELECT MEMBER.MEMBER_ID + ',' FROM #TempTable + '''''Â '
I am trying to write where clause after pivot but I could not know how?
DECLARE @PivotQuery AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
I'd like to modify the dates within this where clause to be dynamic, building the date depending on the current year, but everything I try doesn't seem to be syntactically correct.
SELECT *
FROM Openquery(LS_CIS, 'select * from BI_WRKFLW_TASKS where (BI_EVENT_DT_TM>=''1/1/2011'' and (BI_NEEDED_DT_TM>=''1/1/2011''))OR (BI_EVENT_DT_TM>=''1/1/2011'' and BI_NEEDED_DT_TM is null)') AS derivedtbl_1
I'd like to replace ''1/1/2011''Â in the where clause with something like:
CAST(CAST(YEAR (GETDATE())-4 AS varchar) + '-' + CAST(01 AS varchar) + '-' + CAST(01 AS varchar) AS DATETIME)
I have a table for storing alerts (exceptional situations) occuring ondevices that I monitor. Associated with each alert is an alert code, adescription, the device responsible for causing the alert, when thealert was generated, and when the alert was removed (device no longerhad the alert)A candidate table definition looks likeCREATE TABLE Alerts(device_id varchar(17),alert_code int,alert_description nvarchar(128),generation_date datetime,removal_date datetime-- constraints, etc not shown, generation_date <= removal_date)What I want to figure out is, on a device by device basis, determinecontiguous periods of time when the device was in alert.For example, if the above table had these entries for a device:alert1 10:20 to 10:23alert2 10:25 to 10:40alert3 10:28 to 10:29alert4 10:41 to 11:45alert5 11:44 to 12:31Then, I want a query that will help me determinethat the device had the following periods where one or more alerts wereactive10:20 to 10:2310:25 to 10:4010:41 to 12:31Any help would be appreciated, including suggestions on designing thetable differently.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am creating a dynamic query where i am appending a where clause something like -
IF (@CurCaptureDate IS NOT NULL)
SET @where_clause = @where_clause + CHAR(10) + 'AND CD.CaptureDate = ' + @CurCaptureDate
PS - CD.CaptureDate is datetime and @CurCaptureDate is also datetime
but when executing , it gives this error - Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 169 Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.
i am not able to use convert here with these quotes.
i tried this - SET @where_clause = @where_clause + CHAR(10) + 'AND CD.CaptureDate = ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),@CurCaptureDate )
but it makes it to -
AND CD.CaptureDate = Jul 19 2014 12:00AM. I would need the date in quotes.
I've got this set of registers (just an example) after ordering by the first 3 columns:
value_A value_B value_C ID date
1 2 3 YVIR 29/08/2015
1 2 3 ANTE 27/04/2015
1 2 3 REGO 20/02/2015
I need to get as a final result:
value_A value_B value_C ID date
1 2 3 REGO 29/08/2015
In other words, I need to get, after ordering the result by the date field, the most recent date but at the same time the oldest ID in the list.
I've been trying to do this with the group by clause:
select
value_A, value_B, value_C, min(ID), max(date) -- or max(ID)
from table
group by value_A, value_B, value_C
But in the field ID I'm getting the wrong result because this value is been associated with the alphabetic order.
In access this query involves the function LAST, but in SQL I have not found a good way to perform this. And I am asking because I have seen some possible solution but almost all of them involving the UNION operation, but my problem is, this table can have more than 350.000 registers.
This table is update by some one else, I just can access the information and use it as a source.
I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
 - SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.
 - SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will
Â
1. take a parameter
2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string
3. Execute that string as SQL
4. Get a return value from that SQL statement
5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.
Have a table with a structure like:
FIELD_A
FIELD_B
FIELD_C
FIELD_D
AMOUNT
DATA_A1
DATA_B1
DATA_C2
DATA_D2
37540
[Code] ....
In such a case, devising a dynamic cross-tab query, to cover all the items, and result like a pivot like the following to represent the data in a multi-header pivot like following:
DATA_C1
DATA_C1
DATA_C1
DATA_C2
DATA_C2
DATA_C2
[Code] ....
I have a quite big SQL query which would be nice to be used using UNION betweern two Select and Where clauses. I noticed that if both Select clauses have Where part between UNION other is ignored. How can I prevent this?
I found a article in StackOverflow saying that if UNION has e.g. two Selects with Where conditions other one will not work. [URL] ....
I have installed SQL Server 2014 and I tried to use tricks mentioned in StackOverflow's article but couldn't succeeded.
Any example how to write two Selects with own Where clauses and those Selects are joined with UNION?
In general, what is the most appropriate way to specify a "data driven" default for a report parameter. Seems to me like options are:
1. construct an expression which operates on one of the existing report datasets (possibly the same data set used to populate the defaults dropdown)
2. construct a new dataset which returns a single value which is the desired default
what's the "normal" approach?
For example, I have an MDX dataset which contains the list of dates for which data is available. There is generally some data available for today, but normally the user is interested in the most recent day with data prior to today.
So which would be the better option out of the two above (or a third option if I'm missing something!) to tell my parameter to set itself to:
"The most recent day prior to today for which data exists".
I am looking to do a dynamic IN clause, such as the following.create procedured usp_SPTest
@variable varchar(150)
AS
select * from table
where ID IN (@variable)
GO
Then execuuting this withusp_SPTest '''1'',''2'''
Basically this won't work and gives an error
Syntax error converting the varchar value ''1','2'' to a column of data type int.
which makes sense. Is there anyway to do this outside of a dynamic SQL statement?
According to http://www.sommarskog.se/dynamic_sql.html#List it doesn't look promising but unpacking the list into a table is a bit over board for this in my opinion. Any help is appreciated.
Hi. I can't seem to get my dynamic where clause right.
The pseudo code is such:
when gender is not null and is not 'show all' then create the condition "when tab1.gender = @gender".
and, when country is not null and is not 'show all' then create the condition "when tab1.country = @country".
and, finally, create the condition where tab1.bday_year is
between @toage AND @fromage (this will never be empty or null).
I have tried many variations, the most recent being below.
But, the resulting data does not act as it should (or it won't compile) :
Code:
WHERECASEWHEN @gender <> 'show all' THEN tab1.gender = @gender
WHEN @country <> 'show all' THEN tab1.country = @country
tab1.bday_year BETWEEN @toage AND @fromage END
thanks for any suggestions provided.
HiI need some advice on which direction to take!Consider this statement:SELECT business_name FROM myTable WHERE town = @town AND county = @countyMy problem is that i will not always have the @county variable available. Is there a way to use an IF or a CASE inside the SQL statement (i know i can create two seperate sql statments but dont want to do it this way)? If it makes it easier, when the @county variable is not available, it has a value of 0.thanks againPs, i also know how to do it using dynamic sql using the EXEC() command, but i'd prefer to steer clear of this method also.

I pass a WHERE clause to a sp and use EXEC to execute it. it works fine if it does not include datetime Type in WHERE clause. however, if it did, the an error will be shown up "Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '2'.". I try to copy that clause and run as query in SQL server. there is no problem.
the Where clause is (Status='Open' or Status='On Going' or Status='Hold' or Status='Close') And (Found_Date BETWEEN ' '2007-11-01'' And ''2007-11-30'')
Hello everyone,
I want to build a dynamic where clause which makes :
WHERE column1 = (@parameter1 if @parameter1 is not null) / (anything if @parameter1 is null)
Basically I do not know how to set column1 = ANYTHING
Best regards and thanks.
I am trying to write a stored procedure usp_select using dynamic sql to select from a table. The stored procedure will accept the where clause and/or the where clause parameters. I have tried 3 different methods -
Method 1 -
exec usp_select @whereCondition='col1 like ''abc%'' and col2 = ''xyz'''
In usp_select, I'll build and execute the sql like -
set @sql = N'select * from table ' + @whereConition
exec sp_executesql @sql
(basically @sql becomes - select * from table where col1 like 'abc%' and col2 = 'xyz')
Method 2 -
exec usp_select @whereCondition='col1 like @p1 and col2 = @p2', @WhereParams='@p1=abc%,@p2=xyz'
In usp_select, I'll parse out the values in @WhereParams and then build and execute the sql like -
set @sql = N'declare @p1 nvarchar(10),
@p2 nvarchar(10);
set @p1 = ''' + @parsedValue1 + ''', @p2 = ''' + @parsedValue2 + '''; ' +
N'select col1 from table1 ' + @whereCondition
exec (@sql)
(basically @sql becomes - declare @p1 nvarchar(10), @p2 nvarchar(10);
set @pt = 'abc%', @p2 = 'xyz';
select col1 from table1 where col1 like @p1 and col2 = @p2)
Method 3 -
similar to Method 2 but exec(@sql) will be structured to become -
exec(declare @vparam nvarchar(100), @p1 nvarchar(10), @p2 nvarchar(10);
set @vparam='@p1 nvarchar(10), @p2 nvarchar(10)'
set @p1 = 'abc%', @p2 = 'xyz';
execute sp_executesql N''select col1 from table1 where col1 like @p1 and col2 = @p2', @vparam, @p, @p2)
When I run sql profiler on the 3 methods, method 1 and 2 always result in a Cache Miss on the entire sql structure.
On method 3, a Cache Miss always occurs on the first part of the sql, ie, the first 3 lines where I declare and set the variables. Then a Cache Hit will happen on the execute sp_executesql part.
Do I have any performance gain using method 3 with both a Cache Miss and a Cache Hit?
I hope this is not too confusing. Because I do not know the where condition to the select procedure and hardcoding the values as in method 1 always results in a Cache Miss, therefore, I come up with the ideas in Method 2 and 3.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I have a table (tblRestore) that has the following data
FilePath Included FileType
C:DataProjectsBeacon 1 Directory
C:DataProjectsBeaconPDA 1 Directory
C:DataProjectsBeaconBeaconVisual Studio 2005 0 Directory
C:DataProjectsBeaconVisual Studio 2005 0 Directory
C:DataProjectsBeaconPDAAuditPDAWM5 0 Directory
I want to use the data in this table to dynamically create a where clause that would look like this
WHERE (ParentDirectory + '' LIKE 'C:DataProjectsBeacon\%'
OR ParentDirectory + '' LIKE 'C:DataProjectsBeaconPDA\%')
AND (ParentDirectory NOT LIKE('C:DataProjectsBeaconVisual Studio 2005%')
AND ParentDirectory NOT LIKE('C:DataProjectsBeaconBeaconVisual Studio 2005%')
AND ParentDirectory NOT LIKE('C:DataProjectsBeaconPDAAuditPDAWM5%')
)
Can I do this using Sql (Sql Compact 3.0)?
thanks,
Hi
I'm using SQL Server 2000...
In a stored procedure I am trying to use a parameter in a where clause which is set dependent upon another parameter... ie if report 1 is run, I want to evaluate against the StartDate field ... otherwise evaluate against the EndDate field.
declare @StartDt datetime;
declare @EndDt datetime;
declare @WhereDate varchar(30);
if @report = 1 then
begin
set @WhereDate = 'Table.EndDate'
end
else set @WhereDate = 'Table.StartDate'
select *
from MyTable
Where @WhereDate >= @StartDt and @WhereDate < @EndDt
I'm getting syntax errors, so my question is.... is it possible... if so what syntax should I use?

Hi,
i have a stored procedure like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spQuery1
@dynamicField nvarchar(10)
AS
SELECT id, productName, productDescription
FROM products
WHERE @dynamicField = 'True'
RETURN
The products table has id, productName, productDescription, property1, property2, property3 fields
So my query variable should be, for example, "property1" and the result should be every row with "property1" set to true... but it doesnt work with the sql like this...
any help?
I have a stored procedure which expects one parameter @Company
The variable @Company holds pipe delimited value: "CNN|AOL|ABC"
I need to build a WHERE clause by parsing @Company value, so the select will look like below:

AND CompanyID IN (SELECT DISTINCT(CompanyID) FROM v_Company WHERE CompanyName = 'AOL')
AND CompanyID IN (SELECT DISTINCT(CompanyID) FROM v_Company WHERE CompanyName = 'ABC')

I have 3 tables: Authors, Employee and Stores.
I need to create a stored procedure which will take 3 comma delimited parameters, to be able to query above 3 tables.
Basically my front end user can say give me Authors with last name starting from ‘A,B’ and Employee with first name starting from ‘J,N,K’ and Stores with city starting from ‘New, Los’.
So, stored procedure call will look like this Exec myStoredProcedure 'A,B' , 'J,N,K', 'New,Los' .
My question is, how should I handle WHERE clause in stored procedure if I don’t want it to be a “dynamic WHERE�.
Thank you
Hi,
I have a project which is need dynamically t-sql clause...I've created interface for the create dynamic t-sql clause.
But the clause should get data from relational database. It needs inner join...so it's very hard to do it..
for example
lkpProduct
id product
1 Mouse
2 Keyboard
3 Modem
4 Monitor
main
id productid
1 4
2 1
3 2
4 3
5 4
You can get this table with 2 ways like this..
1. Select main.id, lkpProduct.product from main,lkpProduct where main.productid = lkpProduct.id
2. Select id, case productid when 1 then 'Mouse'.....end as product from main
mytable
id product
1 Monitor
2 Mouse
3 Keyboard
4 Modem
5 Monitor
My question is; how can i use CASE function dynamically ?? Mouse should get from lkpProduct....I do not want to write long table manually..
I hope it is clear for you..
Regards.

Hi,
I am trying to build a parameterized query where I pass a set of integer values into the dynamic sql. Please see below example.
DECLARE @SQLQUERY NVARCHAR(4000)
DECLARE @PARAMDEF NVARCHAR(1000)
DECLARE @VALUES VARCHAR(100)
SET @PARAMDEF = N'@IN_VAL VARCHAR(100)'
SET @VALUES = '1,2,3,4'
SET @SQLQUERY = 'SELECT * FROM TABLEA WHERE COLUMNA IN (@IN_VAL)'
EXEC SP_EXECUTESQL @SQLQUERY,@PARAMDEF,@IN_VAL=@VALUES
This fails with the error "cannot convert varchar to numeric". I believe since ColumnA is numeric, its trying to convert the dynamic paramter to numeric leading to the failure.
has someone implemented an In clause as a parameter? Please do not tell me that I can append the values as string and construct a dynamic query. I want to use a parameterized version. I will be calling this repeatedly and dont want recompile overhead.
TIA
Hello all...
I am trying rewrite an sp that I have that is considered dynamic cause it builds a where clause based on a bunch of if statements then adds it to the the end of select
i.e
if...@where = @where + ' llll '
if...@where = @where + ' llll '
select @statement = @statement + @where
exec(@statement)
I have rewritten most of it to but I have several conditions that use ' contains' for the condition and I can't get SQL server to recognize an if statement or a case statement.
Is it possible to use either statement inside a where clause??
i.e
where if a = 1 then d=e
else contains(.....)
thanks
Hi all!
I need to create a stored procedure with a parameter and then send a WHERE clause to that parameter (fields in the clause may vary from time to time thats why I want to make it as dynamic as possible) and use it in the query like (or something like) this:
---------------------------------------------------
@crit varchar(100)
SELECT fldID, fldName FROM tblUsers
WHERE @crit
----------------------------------------------------
Of course this does not work, but I don't know how it should be done, could someone please point me in the right direction on how to do this kind of queries.
cheers!

Hi, I have several parameters that I need to pass to stored procedure but sometimes some of them might be null. For example I might pass @Path, @Status, @Role etc. depending on the user. Now I wonder if I should use dynamic Where clause or should I use some kind of switch, maybe case and hardcode my where clause. I first created several stored procedures like Documents_GetByRole, Documents_GetByRoleByStatus ... and now I want to combine them into one SP. Which approach is better. Thanks for your help.
View 1 Replies View RelatedGreetings,
I've search around quite extensively on the net and found a few examples that touch on this subject, but the only definitive one that seemed to solve this problem used a temp table in the UDF, which, to my knowledge, is impossible...
The problem is thus:
I want to create either a stored procedure or a user defined function to return a list of values I can intersperse to use in a WHERE AccountID IN (<values>). This way, if someone were to create a new stored procedure and they wanted to either only select accounts with those IDs or perform a NOT IN and use it to filter.
The Solution I'm attempting:
My idea is best represented in psuedo-code:
- Create a Function that stores all account Ids we relate to a particular account type, in this case, let's say accountsids "100, 101, 102, 407" are all accounts we want to consider "cash".
- The function would look something like:
CREATE FUNCTION CashAccountIDs()
RETURNS TABLE
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE TABLE @t1 (account INT)
INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (100)
INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (101)
INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (102)
INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (407)
RETURN @t1
END
Then I could call this function by doing something such as:
SELECT *
FROM Accounts
WHERE AccountId IN (dbo.CashAccountIds())
I would presumably do this for other collections of accounts as well, so that I would end up with say 5 functions I could call to filter various types of accounts.
Not too certain if I am approaching this the correct way or not, I've been receiving a myriad of errors trying different methods. If I use the function above it tells me "Must declare @t1", so I modified it so @t1 is declared in the RETURNS statement, and the syntax checks then work, but when I attempt to save the function it tells me "Cannot perform alter on fn_cashaccountids because it is an incompatible object type"
(The code I use to generate this error is:
CREATE FUNCTION fn_cashaccountids ()
RETURNS @t1 TABLE (i INT)
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @t1 VALUES (100)
RETURN
END
Hopefully I've provided enough but not too much info to sift through, it seems to me this would be something encountered a bit before.
Any help is very much appreciated.

I have a situation where I'll need to get results from tables based on totally arbitrary filters. The user can select the field to compare against, the value, the comparison operator, and the boolean operator, so each bit in brackets would be configurable:[field] [>] [value] [and]The user can specify an arbitrary number of these, including zero of them. I like the coalesce function for situations that are a little more structured, but I think I'm stuck generating a dynamic query for this -- please correct e if I'm wrong!

If I do this with a function and multiple inline sql statements, I could probably do it much easier, but here at work, sprocs are required, and I can't seem to stretch my knowledge and Google searches far enough to find the answer. Plus, I don't really think that creating 4 separate sProcs is the most efficient way of doing this
I need to select and return 8 columns from a table, but the problem is I need to feed the sProc parameters in such a way, that I can use different criteria in the Where Clause.
for instance, I need to combine these 4 select statements into one:1. Select (fields) from (table) Where TechID=@TechID and Status=@Status)2. Select (fields) from (table) Where TechID=@TechID3. Select (fields) from (table) Where OrdNum=@OrdNum3. Select (fields) from (table) Where CustNum=@CustNum
In all instances, the fields and the table are the same - how can I combine all these possible Where clauses (if/then - Select Case?) so that it's only one Stored Procedure?
(or, is this even possible?)
I'm sending a stored procedure a number of parameters, including an int for a foreign key field. I'm trying to dynamically build the Where Clause of the query.
I'm getting the error:
Syntax error converting the varchar value 'wo_dutfk = ' to a column of data type int.
NOTE: wo_dutfk is an int field within the WO table.
Here's the code:
