I'm trying to replace a view with stored procedure for faster performance. the View is called by end user using a query as below, I need to pass the date as parameter for sp to execute with quotes for it to execute with correct results. Â I tried to pass the date as parameter but could not execute stored procedure with correct results. Is there any way to put quotes around returned date from sub query :Â
Execute statement is like
Exec dbo.storedProc1Â select max(date) from table
I need to pass the above as :
Exec dbo.storedProc '2015-03-24'Â .
Somehow passing the date as parameter is giving me empty result set.
How do you replace quotes in an expression
I mean for example if I needed to replace xx in a string with empty string then the following works: REPLACE(SelectedString, "xx","")
But the example I have needs to actually replace quote marks in a string with an empty string and REPLACE(SelectedString, " " ","") doesn't work. I tried guessing a few option like "E or &QTE or something...
Any ideas ?
Thanks

From Access97 I need to execute a SQL 7.0 stored procedure that accepts several input parameters. A few of these are strings that can have imbedded single and/or double quotes (used as feet and inch identifiers). I've tried extra double quotes around the string, square brackets etc. in every combination that I can think of, with minimul success.
Can anyone provide the correct syntax?

I have the following in my commandtext but it doesnt seem to replace the LanguageColumnName variable: Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("SELECT '+@LanguageColumnName+' FROM tblSports a INNER JOIN tblUsersAndSports b ON a.SportID=b.SportID " & _ "WHERE b.UserCode=@UserCode", MyConnection) cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@UserCode", UserCode)) cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@LanguageColumnName", LanguageColumnName))I have tried '+@LanguageColumnName+' and also just @LanguageColumnName but this variable isnt replaced for some reason.The value of LanguageColumnName is "de"...the funny thing is that when I just type my command like the following it DOES work..:SELECT de FROM tblSports a INNER JOIN tblUsersAndSports b ON a.SportID=b.SportID " & _ "WHERE b.UserCode=@UserCodeWhat am I doing wrong?

I would like to create a function that will replace a string using a reference table
I have a table : reference
ID String ReplaceWith
1 ≈ &
2 < <
3 > >
If I pass a string into a function, function needs to replace a string with replace with string column in reference table
For example, if I pass   a string : car $ap; fjld
The function should return car & fjld
How can i create a function like this so that i can call it in Stored procedure....
I have a separate list of calendar years with radiocarbon year equivalents in SQL server but no conversion equation. Most but not all of the data I have is in radiocarbon years. I thought at first I could just link the tables but I don't want the data that is already in calendar years to be linked to this conversion table. Is there any way I can either link the two tables with criteria for which data is linked (Only ages that are in radiocarbon years). Or possibly a way to query all ages that are in radiocarbon years and do something similar to a find and replace with a large list of numbers to change?

I have a replace statement like the following:
select  (replace('FMG','FMG','FM'))
So this is straightforward as it will replace the word 'FMG' with 'FM'
However, SSRS is passing a comma separated list like this:
select  (replace('FMG','AFM','FMG','FM'))
And what I need to do is replace the comma separated list of 'FMG','AFM' only. Â I tried this:
select  (replace('''FMG','AFM''','FMG','FM'))
But it still complaining about syntax errors. How do I get the comma separated list to be seen by the replace function?
I had a procdure in SQL 7.0 in which I am using both single quote and double quotes for string values. This proceudreused to work fine in SQL 7.0 but when I upgraded SQL 7.0 to SQL 2000, this proceudre stopped working. When I changed the double quotes to single quotes, it worked fine.
Any Idea why ??

I am writing an SQL query to find an replace data in a column. I have a table that is filled with
C:usersXXXXappdata
C:usersYYYYappda
C:usersZZZZZZappdata
I would like to replace the c:usersXXXXX part with %userprofile%
The end result would be %userprofile%appdata
I know how to dot the replacement in powershell. it's quite easy
-replace "c:users[^]+","%userprofile%"Â Â
Basically how would transfer this into SQL...
I have a string column in a DB where it's values contain the following midway through the string ([DOCUMENTGUID] is a uniqueidentifier that is different for each row):
<a href="../downloadDoc.aspx?dg=[DOCUMENTGUID]" target="_blank">
I would like to replace this part of the string with a different piece of text.
I know that I should be using PATINDEX and REPLACE functions but I don't know how to utilise.
I want to replace special characters and space except '-' Tried with Pathindex and function but not getting expected results.
Ex: Input kjkdjfdf-234#kei$ ewiw
output:Â kjkdjfdf-234keiewiw
I'm trying to replace special characters in SQL SERVER and all the solutions for this RDBMS that I found, it uses loops and the source of my data it's in Oracle. in ORACLE and they use REGULAR EXPRESIONS to solve it..Do you know what its the better option to replace special characters? Using loops in SQL SERVER or REGULAR EXPRESSIONS in ORACLE ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn some t-sql 2012 that I am using, I am using the following on 5 separate merge statements.

What is different, is the value of LKC.seq = 1 as listed below. I am using 5 separate ctes and the only value that changes is the LKC.seq number being a value between 1 and 5. Thus can you pass a parameter value to the CTE that I just listed above? If so, show t-sql to accomplish this goal?

I need to update an Oracle table from SQL Server. I am trying to use Openquery Update statement. I need to pass a integer as a parameter. I will be updating a date field and a status field.
This is the gist of what I need to do in a stored procedure
DECLAREÂ Â Â @ID1Â Â Â Â Â Â INT,
      @SQL1      VARCHAR(8000),
      @STATUS    VARCHAR(10),
      @DATE      DATETIME;
SETÂ Â Â Â Â Â @ID1 = 350719;
SETÂ Â Â Â Â Â @STATUS = 'COMPLETED';
SETÂ Â Â Â Â Â @DATE = GETDATE();
SELECTÂ Â Â @ID1;
SELECT @SQL1 = 'UPDATE OPENQUERY(NGDEV2_LINK2, ''select DM_IMPORT_STATUS, DM_IMPORT_DATE FROM NEXTGEN.PARTY_HISTORY WHERE PARTY_HISTORY_ID = ' + CAST(@ID1 as nvarchar(30)) + ''')'
SET DM_IMPORT__STATUS = @STATUS, DM_IMPORT_DATE = @DATE;
EXEC (@SQL1);
In t-sql 2012, I want to run a query where the value is normally an int value. I want to supply a large volume of custID values that are normally int values. I have tried to use a cast and convert values and that does not work. The query that I am trying to use is the following:
DECLAREÂ @custID varchar(200)
set @custID = '72793,60546,91069'
select * from table
where in (@custID)
Thus can you show me the t-sql 2012 that I can use to accomplish my goal?
I have a stored proc which will insert and update the table. In this stored procedure I have a output parameter called @rows which is by default 0. Now when ever I insert or update the table and it is successful, then the output parameter should be 1 i.e the out parameter should return value 1 or else default 0.
Here is my code:
 Â
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sample]

@TestVARCHAR(256),
@Created_by Nvarchar (256),
@name nvarchar (100),
@rows int=0 output

I've a scalar function which is killing my performance. I've been used the SQL profiler and also DMVs to catch execution information. I'd like to store the value received by this function and also the time that it happened, but I can't think in a way to do it.

We have a stored procedure which currently accepts the following parameter: exec dbo.PurgeOldData <'yyyy-mm-dd'...We want to schedule this sp to run once a (first day of the month) going back to say today's date (or the date when this sp is called to run) minus 365 or purging 12 months data. Basically, the function should convert the today's date minus xxx number of days to yyyy-mm-dd so that the sp accept it as the correct parameter and purges the data successfully. So, if the sp is run on 2015-08-06, it will purge data going back to 2014-08-06 or earlier with the following parameter:
exec dbo.PurgeOldData <'2014-08-06'>
which means, all the data prior to the above date will be purged. Even the sp was run on 2015-08-06, the converted value of 2014-08-06' is entered as the sp parameter.
