Using EXEC To Fill A Temporary Table
Oct 11, 2004Hi is there a way to store results of the query in a temp table?
Something like
select exec(sp_Run)
into #t1
Is this possible?

Invalid Object Name '#TmpTable' Whenselecting From Temporary Table Made Using INTO From Exec(@str)
Apr 8, 2008Hello,
Can anyone shed some light on why the following:
declare @str varchar(2000)
set @str = 'SELECT * INTO #TmpTable FROM FormHistory'
exec (@str)
SELECT * FROM #TmpTable
gives the following error:
Invalid object name '#TmpTable'.
This is a very cutdown version of what I am trying to achieve so it might not seem obvious why I am writing it into a string and using exec but in the real code I do need to do this. I have cut it right back to try to get to the bottom of why this doesn't work. I suspect the # in the string is causing the problems.
Thanks for any help

How To Use More Than One Query To Fill Temp Table

They will be either a child, family member or an associated party and I need to go to three different tables to find this out. I set a field "relationship" to child, family member or associated party depending on the query results.
I would like to fill a temp table with the results so I can use it in reporting.

Table Names In Stored Procedures As String Variables And Temporary Table Question
Apr 10, 2008How do I use table names stored in variables in stored procedures?
Code Snippetif (select count(*) from @tablename) = 0 or (select count(*) from @tablename) = 1000000
I receive the error 'must declare table variable '@tablename''
I've looked into table variables and they are not what I would require to accomplish what is needed.
After browsing through the forums I believe I need to use dynamic sql particuarly involving sp_executesql. However, I am pretty new at sql and do not really understand how to use this and receive an output parameter from it(msdn kind of confuses me too). I am tryin got receive an integer count of the records from a certain table which can change to anything depending on what the user requires.
Code Snippet
if exists(Select * from sysobjects where name = @temptablename)
drop table @temptablename
It does not like the 'drop table @temptablename' part here. This probably wouldn't be an issue if I could get temporary tables to work, however when I use temporary tables i get invalid object '#temptable'.
Heres what the stored procedure does.
I duplicate a table that is going to be modified by using 'select into temptable'
I add the records required using 'Insert into temptable(Columns) Select(Columns)f rom TableA'
then I truncate the original table that is being modified and insert the temporary table into the original.
Heres the actual SQL query that produces the temporary table error.
Code Snippet
Select * into #temptableabcd from TableA
Insert into #temptableabcd(ColumnA, ColumnB,Field_01, Field_02)
SELECT ColumnA, ColumnB, Sum(ABC_01) as 'Field_01', Sum(ABC_02) as 'Field_02',
FROM TableB
where ColumnB = 003860
Group By ColumnA, ColumnB
TRUNCATE TABLE TableA
Insert into TableA(ColumnA, ColumnB,Field_01, Field_02)
Select ColumnA, ColumnB, Sum(Field_01) as 'Field_01', Sum('Field_02) as 'Field_02',
From #temptableabcd
Group by ColumnA, ColumnB
The above coding produces
Msg 208, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Invalid object name '#temptableabcd'.
Why does this seem to work when I use an actual table? With an actual table the SQL runs smoothly, however that creates the table names as a variable problem from above. Is there certain limitation with temporary tables in stored procedures? How would I get the temporary table to work in this case if possible?
Thanks for the help.

Using An Exec Query To Insert Pdf, .doc File Into Table From A Dir Path Which Is A Field In Another Table
Aug 5, 2007I have the following query in sql 2005:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[uspInsert_Blob] (
@fName varchar(60),
@fType char(5),
@fID numeric(18, 0),
@bID char(3),
@fPath nvarchar(60)
)
as
DECLARE @QUERY VARCHAR(2000)
SET @QUERY = "INSERT INTO tblDocTable(FileName, FileType, ImportExportID, BuildingID, Document)
SELECT '"+@fName+"' AS FileName, '"+@fType+"' AS FileType, " + cast(@fID as nvarchar(18)) + " as ImportExportID, '"+@bID+"' AS BuildingID, * FROM OPENROWSET( BULK '" +@fPath+"' ,SINGLE_BLOB)
AS Document"
EXEC (@QUERY)
This puts some values including a pdf or .doc file into a table, tblDocTable.
Is it possible to change this so that I can get the values from a table rather than as parameters. The Query would be in the form of: insert into tblDocTable (a, b, c, d) select a,b,c,d from tblimportExport.
tblImportExport has the path for the document (DocPath) so I would subsitute that field, ie. DocPath, for the @fPath variable.
Otherwise I can see only doing a Fetch next from tblIportExport where I would put every field into a variable and then run this exec query on these. Thus looping thru every row in tblImportExport.
Any ideas how to do this?
Temporary Table Vs. Table Valued Function
Jun 6, 2006I need to return a table of values calculated from other tables. I have about 10 reports which will use approx. 6 different table structures.
Would it be better performance wise to create a physical table in the database to update while calculating using an identity field to id the stored procedure call, return the data and delete the records. For Example:
StrVal1,Strval2,StrVal4,IntVal1,IntVal2,FloatVal1...
Or using a table-valued function to return a temp table as the result.
I just dont know which overhead is worst, creating a table per function call, or using a defined table then deleting the result set per sp call.
Temporary Table
Feb 1, 2004Hi
I am using SQL 2000 I have the following code. When saving it, I am getting an error:
There is already an object named '##tbl' in the database
This is although #tbl is dropped.
Is threrea way to avoid this error? the only work around I found was to create a string with the SQL command and call EXEC, but I don't like this solution as it prevents early compilation of the procedure.
declare @x int
set @x=1
IF @x=0
begin
create table #tbl (
abc int
)
drop table #tbl
end
IF @x=1
begin
create table #tbl (
abc int
)
drop table #tbl
end
Than you.

Temporary Table
Apr 11, 2006I have the following fields in table A:
GL_ID|GL_Name_VC| Amount |Period_TI|Year_SI|
===================================================
1000| Sales | -20,000.00 | 01 | 2005
===================================================
1000| Sales | -10,000.00 | 02 | 2005
===================================================
1001| Cost | 5,000.00 | 01 | 2005
===================================================
1001| Cost | 5,000.00 | 02 | 2005
the fields above have the following datatype:
Fields | Datatype
===================================
GL_ID | Integer
GL_Name_VC | Variable Character
Amount | Integer
Period_TI | TinyInteger
Year_SI | SmallInteger
The above database is running on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and i would like to query
for a report that looks something as below:
Description | Period 01 | Period 02 | Year to Date
=========================================================
Sales | 20,000.00 | 10,000.00 | 30,000.00
Total Sales | 20,000.00 | 10,000.00 | 30,000.00
Cost | 5,000.00 | 5,000.00 | 10,000.00
Total Cost | 5,000.00 | 5,000.00 | 10,000.00
=========================================================
Profit | 15,000.00 | 5,000.00 | 20,000.00
The above report would list 4 columns, with the last column being a calculated field as a sum of
Period01 + Period02 Amount, sorted by GL_ID and group under a summation row called
Total Sales & Total Cost.There would be a net amount appearing as Profit (Total Sales-Total Cost).
Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?

i have:

Since the second table is somehow only temporary table (having at the front ajax script), i need the third table to store user's ID and all the info from second table.
What would be the easiest way to do it, since the first table contains only one row per user and the second one 40 rows per user.

Temporary Table Pb
May 9, 2007Hi
I call some SQL server procedures via OLEDB under Visual C++.
[ Commands like " EXEC myProc 'param1', 'param2' " ]
My connection string is Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial File Name=C:devsrcindb.mdf
I encounter a pb when there is a 'SELECT (...) INTO #table' into my db procedure.
Something like:
ALTER PROCEDURE myProc
AS
SELECT 1 as 'return1', 2 as 'return2' into #table
SELECT * FROM #table
RETURN
works of course very well when I call it from Visual or Server Management Studio Express
but doesn't return any recordset when I call it from OLEDB.
2nd thing:
SELECT 1 as 'return1', 2 as 'return2' into table
SELECT * from table
-> table is created [I can see it in the db], but no selection is returned to my OLEDB caller.
Is it a security pb ?

Substitute For Temporary Table?
Jun 2, 2006Hello once again,
My last question concerns (temporary) tables. In a web form (VWD Express, Asp,Net 2.0, VB, .mdf db, Ajax) I have two gridviews. One gets its data from textboxes and dropdownlists as the user clicks an ok button. This data is then sent to a "junk" table in the db. The other gridview retrieves this data "automatically" and displays the data, filtered and grouped by some SQL statements. When the user finally clicks an Insert record button, the data from this second gridview gets inserted in another table in the db and the data from the first "junk" table is disposed.
I guess it shouldn't be necessary to insert, retrieve, and delete the data in and from the "junk" table. Even though it does work like a charm, I guess it would be better if I could do it wit hsome kind of "temporary table", array or the like so that the db wouldn't need to be updated to this extent. Still, I really like the simplicity of using gridviews and the rest of the page's code is complex enough, so I don't really want to substitute this behaviour for tons of hand-written, hard-to-follow, and hard-to-integrate code.
What are my options? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One Big Query Or Use Temporary Table?
Jan 11, 2001Hi,
Can any of you tell me what is right?
When we are writing a big query that against to 25+ tables (it has lots of lookup and lots of business logic in it so it will have lots of left outer joins, right outer joins, inner join, UNION, group by, and lots of SQL server functions) should we put everything in one select statement? Or we should create lots of temporary tables and then join them together?
My friend told me that I should use one statement instead of lots of temp tables in order to reduce the physical read. He does not like the temp table idea since there will be lots of user running the query in the same time and it will use lots of space. But I don’t believe that is true. (I believe when you put everything in one statement, SQL server still needs to create the result set in the temp db.) There will be lots of join going on and it could hurt the performance.
I believe that
1.We should create the temp tables and then join the temp tables together later to get the final results. we can create the index on the temp table at runtime.
2.If the order of columns in the index does not match to our where clause, then the index is useless.
3.If there is a SQL function in the where clause, the index is useless. (for example, where Datepart(yy, orderdate)=’1998’)
4.If there is a NOT in the where clause, the index is useless.
What do you think? Are you agree with me?
Following is the query. Is there any better way to do this?

c.Description as Region,

View 4 Replies View RelatedTemporary Table Overhead
Feb 10, 2005Hope somebody can give me some advice .
We are having some issues with temporary tables (with # prefixes) within Stored Procedures.
When running a profile trace on them, the stored proc quite happily creates the temp # table (in fact several of them) but whenever it hits the first statement inserting data into one of them (and it doesn't matter which one), there is a 5-6 second delay.
By commenting out one and moving to the next piece of code, the same thing happens.
Following which, the rest of the Stored Prco runs fine and subsequent inserts into the # temp tables also run efficiently.
Is the stored proc getting recompiled perhaps ?
Any advice woul;d be appreciated.
we are running SQL Server 7.0, dont know whether that helps ?
