Transact SQL :: Return Recordset From Dynamic Table
Sep 25, 2015
I tried to create a dynamic table, fill in it and return it as recordset. The codes as this:
Declare @tbl Table(id int, name varchar(100), age int)
Insert Into @tbl(id, name, age)
Values(1, 'James, Lee', 28),
(2, 'Mike, Richard', 32),
(3, 'Leon Wong', 29)
Select * From @tbl Order By age
It works well in "SQL Query Ananizer". But return no records in ASP page.
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
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.
I want to write a function, which accept 3 parameters, 1 TableName 2 ColumnName 3 DateValue, and returns number of records in that table for that particular date(in parameter date), I have written below function but it is not returning the desired result.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.[f_Rec_cnt] (@InTableName NVARCHAR(100), @InDtColName NVARCHAR(50), @InDate NVARCHAR(50) ) RETURNS INT
Empid 1 has 2 entries for the date 09/01/2015 and my left join returns both of those entries. What do I need to alter to make it so that only the most recent entry is returned not both entries?
1 Banana2 Orange3 Apple Order tblOrder, tblOrder: CustID; ProductID; Amount
1 ;2 ;$20 – means Peter ordered $20 oranges
How do I write the SQL query so that the values in tblProduct become column, currently I have 20 items in that table. So, it will return something like this according to the information that I provide above?
Trying to create a report... Report should show * documents on hold then depending on the "on-hold type" look in the corresponding table and SELECT a few fields. Here is what I have. Where do I SET the @profile variable to return the profile from my queue table?
DECLARe @profilevarchar(256) SELECT q.[profile],q.on_hold,q.on_hold_message,q.dbc_state FROM QueueASq
I am new to Partitioning tables. My scenario is as listed below.
I am getting Monthly Transaction data on Every First Monday of the Month and I want to do partition for those data.
For Example: Let's say I will get my next monthly data on August 3rd 2015 which is First Monday of the month of August.
I want those Transaction data to go in new partitioned FileGroup in my existing partitioned table. How can I do partition for this kind of scenario ? Can we create one or multiple Stored Procedure which will create New Partition and load data in that partition ?
FYI, this monthly data will be loaded in Staging table and that table has LoadDate column which will have 2015-08-03 in it. I am using SQL 2012 Enterprise edition.
I have a question regarding the dynamic sql. I have a script which which deletes all the foreign keys and re- creates it. So, I have created a table instead of a temp table. Now I need to create that foreign keys table in such a way that in which ever database I run the script, this foreign keys table should be created in that particular database.
For example:
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..keys','U') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE keys CREATE TABLE keys.[@sourceserver],[@database]. (RowId INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1, 1), ForeignKeyConstraintName NVARCHAR(200), ForeignKeyConstraintTableSchema NVARCHAR(200), ForeignKeyConstraintTableName NVARCHAR(200), ForeignKeyConstraintColumnName NVARCHAR(200)
I want a functionality such that I want to return a select query resultset and a varchar variable from a procedure. How can I achieve that,and moreover how can I fetch them in ASP??
Waiting for someone to shed a light of hope. Thanx a lot
In a nutshell, I am trying to set a combobox's row source using a stored procedure. Surely there is an easy way to do that.
I am working with SQL 2000 as my back-end, and my front-end is an Access Project. The stored procedure I am trying to run is on a different database then the one my project is connected to, but from what I can see in my de-bugging efforts, that is not the problem.
SELECT dbo.TIMS_eeLinksByName.eeLink, dbo.TIMS_eeLinksByName.Employee FROM dbo.TIMS_eeLinksByName WHERE (dbo.TIMS_eeLinksByName.eeErNum = @EmployerNum) ORDER BY dbo.TIMS_eeLinksByName.Employee
returns 169 records when I run it directly from the MS Visual Studio environment.
However whe I try to run it from VBA with the following code;
Dim sp_eeLinksByName As String Dim ConnectionString As String Const DSeeLinksByName = "SOS-1" Const DBeeLinksByName = "Insync" Const DPeeLinksByName = "SQLOLEDB"
Dim objeeLinksByNameConn As New ADODB.Connection Dim objeeLinksByNameRs As New ADODB.Recordset Dim objeeLinksByNameComm As New ADODB.Command
' Connect to the data source. objeeLinksByNameConn.Open ConnectionString
' Set a stored procedure objeeLinksByNameComm.CommandText = sp_eeLinksByName objeeLinksByNameComm.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc Set objeeLinksByNameComm.ActiveConnection = objeeLinksByNameConn
' Execute the stored procedure on ' the active connection object... ' "CurrTSCalendar" is the required input parameter, ' objRs is the resultant output variable. objeeLinksByNameConn.sp_eeLinksByName CurrTSEmployer, objeeLinksByNameRs
' Display the result. 'Debug.Print "Results returned from sp_CustOrdersOrders for ALFKI: " Select Case objeeLinksByNameRs.RecordCount Case 0 'Do Nothing Case Is > 0 'Get the Employee List objeeLinksByNameRs.MoveFirst Do While Not objeeLinksByNameRs.EOF MyControl.AddItem (objeeLinksByNameRs.Fields("eeLink") & ";" & objeeLinksByNameRs.Fields("Employee")) objeeLinksByNameRs.MoveNext Loop End Select
'Clean up. 'objRs.Close objeeLinksByNameConn.Close Set objeeLinksByNameRs = Nothing Set objeeLinksByNameConn = Nothing Set objeeLinksByNameComm = Nothing
I get an "Object Variable or With Blick Vraiable not Set"...... for the life of me I do not know why? Does anyone have any thoughts?
I've to write a function to return a comma delimited values from a table columns
If a table has Tab1 ( Col1,Col2,Col3).
E.g. as below ( the columnName content I want to use as columns for my pivot table
CREATE FUNCTION [RPT].[GetListOfCol] ( @vCat NVARCHAR(4000) ) RETURNS @PList AS BEGIN SELECT @PList += N', [' + [ColumnName] +']' FROM [ETL].[TableDef] WHERE [IsActive] = 1 AND [Category] = @vCat RETURN; END;
I want out put to be as below, I am getting this output from the select query independently by declaring @Plist variable and passing @vcat value, now I want it to be returned from a function when called from a select query output ,Colum1,column2,....
However the issue is with [1],[2],[3] columns. Those are the number of days of the month. If today is the 3rd day of the month, we only need to show 3 days. So the final table has column [1],[2],[3] and @AccountType and @Total .
We want to run this query everyday to get the moth to date values.If we run this tomorrow, it will have 4 date columns [1], [2],[3],[4] and @AccountType and @Total .
I am using SQL Server 2008 as a back end for a Microsoft Access front end. I have created a report that is essentially a Bill Of Lading. The detail section lists all the purchase orders that are being shipped on a single load. The problem with the Access Report is that I always need a set number of records (8) so that the layout is consistent. So, if the query returns 5 records, I need an additional 3 blank records returned with the recordset. If there are 2 records, I need an additional 6, and so on. For simplicity sake the query is:
SELECT tblBOL.PONumber FROM tblBOL WHERE tblBOL.BOLNumber=@BOLNumber;Now, I can get the results I want by using a union query for the "extra" records.
For instance, if there are 6 records returned for BOLNumber '12345', I can get the expected results by this query:
SELECT tblBOL.PONumber FROM tblBOL WHERE tblBOL.BOLNumber='12345' UNION ALL SELECT '12345',Null UNION ALL SELECT '12345',Null;
Another solution would be to create a temporary table with the "extra" records and then have only one Union statement. Not sure which is better, but I'm not really sure how to programmatically do either of these. I'm guessing I need to do it in a stored procedure. How do I programmatically create these extra records? One other note.... If there are more than 8 records, I need to return 8 of these "blank" records and none of the real records (hard to explain the reason behind this, but it has to do with the report being only a summary when there are more than 8 records while the actual records will go on a different supplemental report).
I would like to INSERT an array of integer into a table in MSSQL Server, then count the number of rows in the table with c++ using ODBC. Here you find my code to do this task:
In my code, I would like to Insert the array and then count the number of rows:
SQLTCHAR Statement[] = _T("INSERT INTO information1(Wert1,Wert2) VALUES(?,?) select count(*) as a from information1 ") ;
Problem : My expectation is, that first 9 rows are inserted into table then comes 9 as result to user (if the table is empty) but this code returns me 1 if first the table is empty. If the table is not empty, it returns 1+number of existing rows in the table. If I take a look inside the table, the 9 rows are successfully inserted in it. Only the number of rows in the table is wrong.
Hint : If I monitor the database using SQL Profiler. It looks like this:
I have tables and a function as representated by the code below. The names for objects here are just for representation and not the actual names of objects. Table RDTEST may have one or multiple values for RD for each PID. So the function GIVERD will return one or multiple values of RD for each value of PID passed to it.
When I run the following query, I get the required result except the rows for CID 500 for which PID is NULL in table T1. I want the rows for CID 500 as well with PID values as NULL.
SELECT A.CID, A.ANI, A.PID, B.RD FROM T1 AS A CROSS APPLY GIVERD(A.PID) B
Hi All,I have what seems to me to be a difficult query request for a databaseI've inherited.I have a table that has a varchar(2000) column that is used to storesystem and user messages from an on-line ordering system.For some reason (I have no idea why), when the original database wasbeing designed no thought was given to putting these messages inanother table, one row per message, and I've now been asked to providesome stats on the contents of this field across the recordset.A pseudo example of the table would be:custrep, orderid, orderdate, comments1, 10001, 2004-04-12, :Comment 1:Comment 2:Comment 3:Customer askedfor a brown model2, 10002, 2004-04-12, :Comment 3:Comment 4:1, 10003, 2004-04-12, :Comment 2:Comment 8:2, 10004, 2004-04-12, :Comment 4:Comment 6:Comment 7:2, 10005, 2004-04-12, :Comment 1:Comment 6:Customer cancelled orderSo, what I've been asked to provide is something like this:orderdate, custrep, syscomment, countofsyscomments2004-04-12, 1, Comment 1, 12004-04-12, 1, Comment 2, 22004-04-12, 1, Comment 3, 12004-04-12, 1, Comment 8, 12004-04-12, 2, Comment 1, 12004-04-12, 2, Comment 3, 12004-04-12, 2, Comment 4, 22004-04-12, 2, Comment 6, 22004-04-12, 2, Comment 7, 1I have a table in which each of the system comments are defined.Anything else appearing in the column is treated as a user comment.Does anyone have any thoughts on how this could be achieved? The endresult will end up in an SQL Server 2000 stored procedure which willbe called from an ASP page to provide order taking stats.Any help will be humbly and immensely appreciated!Much warmth,Murray
updating a recordset contained in an System.Object variable during runtime.
I am trying to execute multiple file actions (plus parsing those files into a set of staging tables) at separate locations in parallel. I know I can do this in C# but I have a business requirement to use SSIS for all ETL operations.
Any one site can have 0 to many of 1 to 3 files. I would like to run multiple sites at the same time, so when all files of all types are completed at that site then go on to the next site in the list. I know I can do a single site at a time in a foreach loop but if I can run lets say 3-5 sites concurrently then I should be able to save execution time.
My thought is to have a recordset of the sites, when any 1 of the 3 (or more) "control flows" is open, update the recordset to let it know that site being actioned, when that site is complete, update the recordset that the site is completed, and so on.Or am I running in the wrong direction?
I’m thinking about the best way to run these queries, which need to be run regularly.
The first query is two tables linked, one is a data table containing a unique person identifier and three activity fields, the second a lookup table with an activity_type linked to the activity in the table data.
Data Table PersonID Lots of other fields Activity1 Activity2 Activity3
The ACTIVITY fields can contain data anywhere between all being NULL and all being complete.
Lookup Table ActivityID ActivityDesc ( which appears in Activity 1 – 3) ActivityType
I’d like to create a function which will create a recordset containing the Person ID and the Activity Type. I am unsure as to whether to do this in a way which will create one record for each person, or potentially 3 records for each person. This is how I have done the 3 records:
SELECT PersonID, Activity1 As Sport, ActivityType From dbo.tblActivity LEFT JOIN dbo.tblLUActivityType ON dbo.tblActivity.Activity1 = dbo.tblLUActivityType.ActivityDesc UNION SELECT PersonID, Activity2 As Sport, ActivityType
[Code] ...
And this is how I have done the 1 record:
SELECT ClientID, Activity1, (SELECT ActivityType from dbo.tblLUActivityType where ActivityDesc = Activity1) As ActivityType1, Activity2, (SELECT ActivityType from dbo.tblLUActivityType where ActivityDesc = Activity2) As ActivityType2, Activity3, (SELECT ActivityType from dbo.tblLUActivityType where ActivityDesc = Activity3) As ActivityType3 From dbo.tblActivity LEFT JOIN dbo.tblLUActivityType ON dbo.tblActivity.Activity3 = dbo.tblLUActivityType.ActivityDesc Order by PersonID
The reason I would like to do this is because I need to create a stored procedure which returns one record per person with two fields (Person Id, ActivityType) which states their ActivityType depending on certain rules:
Rule 1: If any of Activity 1 – 3 are ‘O’ report the Person ID and ActivityType = ‘O’
Rule 2: Of the rest of the recordset, if any of Activity 1 – 3 are ‘N’ but none of Activity 1-3 are ‘O’ or ‘A’ then report the Person ID and ‘N’.
Rule 3: Of the rest of the recordset, if any of Activity 1 – 3 are ‘A’ but none of Activity 1-3 are ‘O’ or ‘N’ then report the Person ID and ‘A’.
Rule 4: Of the rest of the recordset, if any of Activity 1 – 3 are ‘A’ and one of the is ‘N’ then report the Person ID and ‘AN’.
At the end this I’m looking for one recordset with two fields containing a personID and one of ‘O’, ‘A’, ‘N’ or ‘AN’. I can do the first part of this in any way necessary, as long as the second part returns the recordset I need.
I have a stored procedure that selects the unique Name of an item from one table.
SELECT DISTINCT ChainName from Chains
For each ChainName, there exists 0 or more StoreNames in the Stores. I want to return the result of this select as the second field in each row of the result set.
SELECT DISTINCT StoreName FROM Stores WHERE Stores.ChainName = ChainName
Each row of the result set returned by the stored procedure would contain:
ChainName, Array of StoreNames (or comma separated strings or whatever)
Hii I am Varun i have a problem with the dynamic stored procedure This is my stored procedureALTER PROCEDURE dbo.sp_TimeTableAdjustment1 (@TeacherID_OnLeave numeric(9), @DateFrom datetime ,@DateTo datetime , @UserID numeric(9) ) AS declare @flag as numeric(9) declare @year as varchar(4) set @year=(select batch from batchmaster where iscurrent=1 and isdeleted=0) if( @year=null or len(@year)=0) set @year = year(getdate())exec ('if not exists(select * from timetableadjustments_'+@year+' where datefrom='''+@datefrom+''' and dateto='''+@dateto+''' and teacherid_onleave='+@teacherid_onleave+') begin insert into TimeTableAdjustments_'+@year+' (TeacherID_OnLeave,DateFrom,DateTo,UserID) values ('+@TeacherID_OnLeave+','''+@DateFrom+''','''+@DateTo+''','+@UserID+'); end') else set @flag=(select timetableadjustmentid from timetableadjustments_2007 where datefrom=@datefrom and dateto=@dateto and teacherid_onleave=@teacherid_onleave) return @flag --exec('select timetableadjustmentid from timetableadjustments_'+@year+' where datefrom='''+@DateFrom+''' and dateto='''+@DateTo+''' and teacherid_onleave='+@TeacherID_OnLeave+' --') --return @flag --exec('@flag=select timetableadjustmentid from timetableadjustments_'+@year+' where datefrom='''+@DateFrom+''' and dateto='''+@DateTo+''' and teacherid_onleave='+@TeacherID_OnLeave+'')
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.
Is it possible to write dynamic sql on scalar function and assign the value to return value? I like some thing like below but it is not working...

The problem is that I do not know the names of the columns before I run the query. I retrieve them based on a a list of Item Numbers: SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM TableName WHERE ItemNumber IN (...)
What I was trying to do is the following, but I am not exactly sure what is wrong:
WITH ProductLines (ItemNumber, ItemName, ItemValue) AS ( SELECT ItemNumber, Name, Value FROM ProductItems WHERE ItemNumber IN (...) )
SELECT * FROM ProductLines -- Don't know the column names PIVOT (
... -- Not sure what should come here FOR ItemNumber IN (...) )
I have created a function that will check whether the data is null or not. If its null then it will display that as No data else it will display the original value. Below is the function
GO Object: UserDefinedFunction [dbo].[fnchkNull] Script Date: 3/4/2015 12:01:58 PM ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO
[code]...
The code is working good. However i want the return type to be dynamic. If the data type supplied is integer then i want to return a integer value like 0 if its null. if the data value is varchar then i want to return 'No Data'.
I want to transfer a recordset (derived from an Oracle datasource) into an SQL2000 Server table using VBScript in a ActiveX Script Task using a DTS.
Currently I use the OPENROWSET (and OPENQUERY) method, however the lenght of the querytext seems to be limited to 8192 bytes. At this moment I have reached the limit of this lenght, and I am looking for a solution.
Futher info: The query returns large recordsets of 100,000s of records with 100s of columns. Because of it's complex structure, the standard data transformation in SLQ2000 is not an option.
Using a substitute like:
varRecords = rst1.GetRows For intI = 0 To UBound(varRecords, 2) rst2.AddNew For intJ = 0 To UBound(varRecords, 1) rst2(intJ) = varRecords(intJ, intI) Next Next rst2.Update
USE [Metadata] GO /****** Object: UserDefinedFunction [Event].[BestTBOI] Script Date: 9/15/2015 11:11:21 AM ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[code]...
But I cannot figure out how to 'Call' this stored procedure from a query, passing the needed parameters, and use the return value from the stored procedure in one of the query fields.
Cannot find either column "Event" or the user-defined function or aggregate "Event.DynamicBestTBOI", or the name is ambiguous. use Metadata select Event.DynamicBestTBOI(IntegratedTest1.Event.EventTrackUpdate.SequenceNumber,'EventTrackUpdate') from IntegratedTest1.Event.EventTrackUpdate
