How To Input A DOS Variable Into A Stored Procedure
May 4, 2004I am trying to Execute a Stored Procedure using Call OSQL from a .bat file, and passing a DOS variable to the Stored Procedure.
The DOS variable is established in the DOS command...
set SERVERJOB=JOBNAME
I have tried...
EXEC sp_procedure %SERVERJOB%
With this, I get an error...
sg 170, Level 15, State 1, Server ABCDEFGH, Line 20
Line 20: Incorrect syntax near '%'.
If I put the variable name in quotes on the EXEC statement above, the value used is the variable name, %SERVERJOB% itself rather than the value the variable was set to, which would be JOBNAME in the above example.
Any ideas??? Thanks!
Select Statement As Input Variable In Stored Procedure?
May 6, 2015Is it possible to have an entire sql select statement as the input variable to a stored procedure? I want the stored procedure to execute the select statement.
ie.
exec sp_SomeFunc 'select * from table1 where id=1'
It may sound weird, but I have my reason for wanting to do it this way. Is this possible? if so, how do I implement this inside the stored procedure?
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.
SQL Server 2008 :: Stored Procedure Returning Different Datasets Based On Input Variable
Sep 15, 2015I'm seeing where previous developers have used a single stored procedure for multiple reports, where each report required different columns to be returned. They are structured like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetSomeData (@rptType INT, @customerID INT)
AS
BEGIN
IF @rptType = 1
BEGIN
SELECT LastName, FirstName, MiddleInitial
[Code] ....
As you can see, the output depends on the given report type. I've personally never done this, but that's more because it's the way I learned as opposed to any hard facts to support it.
So what I'm looking for is basically 2-fold.

Dynamic OLE DB Table Source From Variable Not Seeing Input Columns
Dec 12, 2007I am building an SSIS package that loops through a table in SQL Server and dynamically builds a select statement that i would like to use as an ole db source. I have been having a difficult time with this as the select statement that i am generating is over 200,000 characters long so using an sql variable is out of the question.
I ended up placing the select statement into a table where each row of the table represents a piece of the select. I then use an execute_sql task that selects the entire rowset from this table into a variable object. I then use a for each loop to shred the variable and concatenate it into on big string variable called user:: sql_statement that is my select.
After setting up the loop and testing to see if the user:: sql_statement variable populates correctly i then added a data flow transfer with an ole db source and destination. I then go into the advanced editor for the source and set it to accept an sql statement from a variable and use my user:: sql_statement variable. I was forced to set validate external metadata option to false to avoid an error since there is no way to validate the columns until the for each loop runs during run time.
Now thats all fine and good but what is causing my problem is that during run time, when the package gets to the data flow task, the select statement doesn't seem to be populating the input columns of the data source. I have been searching to no avail on a way to tell the data source to update the input columns but every time it gets there, the package bombs out telling me the ole db source has no available output columns.
Specifically the error i get is :
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: "output "OLE DB Source Output" (6616)" contains no output columns. An asynchronous output must contain output columns.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Stored Procedure With Input Going To A Temp Table
Feb 11, 2001Could someone help me get this stored procedure to work? I want to give the stored procedure a long list of departments and have them added to a temp table.

Table-valued Function Run Once For Each Row In A Table Variable.
Mar 19, 2008I have a stored produre. Inside this stored procedure I have table variable with one column. Once the table variable is populated with rows, I would like to pass each value in the table, into a table-valued function. The table-valued function may return any number of rows. I would like all the rows the TVF returns to be returned from the stored procedure as a single result set. I would also like to do this without defining a table variable to hold the results of the table-value function.
Code Snippet
declare @IdTable table
(
EmployeeId nvarchar( 16 ) not null
)
insert into @IdTable
select EmployeeNumber from Employees

Table-valued Function Into A @table Variable
Feb 22, 2008In my stored procedure i have a multi-valued varchar(max) parameter and I wrote a table-valued function that takes the varchar(max) and return a table back to the stored procedure where i inserted into a @table. Just wondering is there a better and faster way of doing this?

Passing Variable To Table Function In Join
Dec 26, 2007Hello, thanks in advance for reading this. I am having difficulty trying to get a statement to work.
There is a MAIN table:
ItemNo int identity(1,0),
ItemType tinyint
There is a WETPAINT table:
ItemNo int,
Color varchar(20)
There is a DRYPAINT table:
ItemNo int,
Color varchar(20)
Now, what I want to do is JOIN the MAIN table to either the WETPAINT table or the DRYPAINT table depending on the value of MAIN.ItemType
So I created a table function called getTable:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[gettable]
(
@ItemType int = 1
)
RETURNS
@thistable TABLE
(
Color varchar(20)
)
AS
BEGIN
if @ItemType = 1
insert into @thistable (color) select color from WETPAINT
if @ItemType = 2
insert into @thistable (color) select color from DRYPAINT
RETURN
END
This is all fine and dandy if I iterate through the MAIN table one row at a time, but how can I JOIN the tables, like:
SELECT MAIN.ItemNo, a.Color
FROM MAIN
INNER JOIN gettable(Main.ItemNo) as a
ON a.ItemNo = MAIN.ItemNo
Obviously, there is more than one field in the DRYPAINT and WETPAINT tables, and there is a need to have both tables instead of combining them into one.
Any help in how to create a table alias by passing a value from the select statement would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again.
PS -- I am trying to create a view with this, so I can't use variables and iterate through the MAIN table one row at a time.

Problem Passing A Variable Into A Table-valued Function
Sep 26, 2007Hi,
i am encountering a problem in a stored procedure when a pass a variable value into a table-valued function. The table-valued function is named getCurrentDriver and has 1 attribute: car-ID.
The syntax is as follows:
select car.id, car.licenceNumber, car.brand, car.model,
(select driverName from getCurrentDriver(car.id)) as driverName
from car
When I try to compile I get following error on the line of the function:
Incorrect syntax near '.'
The database version is SQL Server 2000 SP3.
What am I doing wrong? Is there a workaround for this error?
Must Declare The Scalar Variable In Table-valued Function

INSERT INTO @arDetail SELECT * FROM @arTemp
RETURN
END
GO
I get
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure MakeArDetail, Line 43

I don't understand why SQL thinks @arTemp is a scalar variable which has to be declared.
If I don't include the UPDATE command the thing works.

Power Pivot :: Temp Table Or Table Variable In Query (not Stored Procedure)?
Jul 19, 2012I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
   declare @tTable(col1 int)
   insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
   select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.
How Can I Assign Data Returned From A Stored Procedure Into The Return Table Of A Table Valued Function
Apr 18, 2007Here is the scenario,
I have 2 stored procedures, SP1 and SP2
SP1 has the following code:
declare @tmp as varchar(300)
set @tmp = 'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET ( ''SQLOLEDB'', ''SERVER=.;Trusted_Connection=yes'',
''SET FMTONLY OFF EXEC ' + db_name() + '..StoredProcedure'' )'
EXEC (@tmp)
SP2 has the following code:
SELECT *
FROM SP1 (which won't work because SP1 is a stored procedure. A view, a table valued function, or a temporary table must be used for this)
Views - can't use a view because they don't allow dynamic sql and the db_name() in the OPENROWSET function must be used.
Temp Tables - can't use these because it would cause a large hit on system performance due to the frequency SP2 and others like it will be used.
Functions - My last resort is to use a table valued function as shown:
FUNCTION MyFunction
( )
RETURNS @retTable
(
@Field1 int,
@Field2 varchar(50)
)
AS
BEGIN
-- the problem here is that I need to call SP1 and assign it's resulting data into the
-- @retTable variable
-- this statement is incorrect, but it's meaning is my goal
INSERT @retTableSELECT *FROM SP1
RETURN
END

Aug 24, 2007I need to use a variable for a table name, pass it to a stored procedure that extracts data, and then store the result of the sp in another variable.
For example, earlier in the program I construct the table name using this statement:
@tablename = 'OC_TEMPLATE_' + @FORM. The resulting table name may by something like: OC_TEMPLATE_101
Now I need to use this table name in a statement like this:

Compare The Value Of A Variable With Previous Variable From A Function ,reset The Counter When Val Changes
Oct 15, 2007I am in the middle of taking course 2073B €“ Programming a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Database. I noticed that in Module9: Implementing User-Defined Functions exercise 2, page 25; step 2 is not returning the correct answer.
Select employeeid,name,title,mgremployeeid from dbo.fn_findreports(2)
It returns manager id for both 2 and 5 and I think it should just return the results only for manager id 2. The query results for step 1 is correct but not for step 2.
Somewhere in the code I think it should compare the inemployeeid with the previous inemployeeid, and then add a counter. If the two inemployeeid are not the same then reset the counter. Then maybe add an if statement or a case statement. Can you help with the logic? Thanks!

Variable Number Of Input Columns
May 2, 2007We are trying to use the Import/export wizard to load a text file to a SQL Server 2005 database. The input file has a variable number of columns per row. For example, the first row has 3 columns, the second has 7, the third has 3, etc. The number of columns varies from 2 to 9 in the input file. The columns are separated by an uptick (`) and the rows are terminated by {CR}{LF}. We are using code page 1252. On processing, the wizard reads the first row (with 3 columns) ok, but then assumes all the other rows have 3 columns and parses the rows accordingly, ignoring the field and row terminators.
The process worked fine with SQL Server 2000. Is there some setting that we are missing, or some configuration on the database that we should be checking?
Thank You
