Can someone help me with the following function? I would like to use a table name as a variable.
Thanks in advance!
CREATE FUNCTION FAC_user.Overzicht_DTe (@tabel1 as nvarchar, @proces as nvarchar, @categorie as nvarchar) RETURNS numeric AS BEGIN declare @aantal numeric
if @proces = 'Inhuizen' begin if @categorie = 'open_op_tijd' begin SET @aantal =(SELECT Count(@tabel1 + '.Contractnummer') FROM @tabel1, Rapportageweek WHERE@tabel1.Verwerkingsdatum is null AND @tabel1.UiterlijkeVerwDatum >= Rapportageweek.Rapportagedatum AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVHG' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVHN' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVIG' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVIN' GROUP BY@tabel1.Maand, @tabel1.Jaar) end
if @categorie = 'open_te_laat' begin SET @aantal =(SELECT Count(@tabel1 + '.Contractnummer') FROM @tabel1, Rapportageweek WHERE@tabel1.Verwerkingsdatum is null AND @tabel1.UiterlijkeVerwDatum < Rapportageweek.Rapportagedatum AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVHG' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVHN' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVIG' AND @tabel1.ItemType = 'ZVIN' GROUP BY@tabel1.Maand, @tabel1.Jaar) end
I have a stored procedure that accepts the table name as a parameter. Is there anyway I can use this variable in my select statement after the 'from' clause. ie "select count(*) from @Table_Name"? When I try that is says "Must declare the table variable @Table_Name". Thanks!
I am trying to create a stored procedure for automating Bulk inserting into tables for one database to another. Is there any way i can pass the table name as variable to insert and select stmt
We are trying to create a unique key from a table with indentity set in the table. We will have a number of these tables. Therefore, we will be creating a stored procedure and passing the table as a parameter. In this example we are setting the table.
When we run the the script, the output clause from the insert should give us a unique number from the given table in the temporary table. This example stores the output in a temporary table @tTemp.
How can you use a variable table name and retrieve the output from the Insert?
declare @tTestTable varchar (20)
set @tTestTable = 'mis.test_sequence'
--DECLARE @tTestTable TABLE ( sqVal [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, add_date datetime) declare @testsql varchar (4000), @testseq int
DECLARE @tTemp table (mainpk int)
set @testsql = 'DECLARE @tTemp table (mainpk int) INSERT ' + @tTestTable + ' OUTPUT INSERTED.sqVal into @tTemp VALUES (getdate() ) SELECT @testseq=mainpk FROM @tTemp'
I am using a sql task to get all tablenames and then passing the output to another sql task inside a for each container.
So that the 2nd sql task will be executed for each table. My query looks like SELECT DISTINCT b.EmailAddress FROM ? ......
Since I am passing the tablename as a variable (output from the 1st sql task), I get the following error:
[Task Execute SQL] Error:
Failed to execute the query 'SELECT DISTINCT b.EmailAddress FROM? AS a INNER... ':' Failed to extract
the result in a variable of type (DBTYPE_I4)'. Possible causes include the following: Problems with the query, not properly fixed ResultSet property, not properly set parameters or not properly established connection.
I'm not sure about this one so if someone could help I'd appreciate this.
As shown below I've declared a variable name1 to be used in a while statement substituting for an object name in a select statement (2000 SP3a) and throwing the shown error. Are variables allowed to be used to substitute for object names or is there another problem? Thanks.
What i am trying to do is concatenate variable "@Where" with CURSOR sql statement,inside a procedure . But, it doesn't seem to get the value for the @Where. (I tried with DEBUGGING option of Query Analyzer also).
============================================= SET @Where = '' if IsNull(@Input1,NULL) <> NULL Set @Where = @Where + " AND studentid='" + @input1 +"'"
if isnull(@Input2,NULL) <> NULL Set @Where = @Where + " AND teacherid =' " + @Input2 +"'"
DECLARE curs1 CURSOR SCROLL FOR SELECT firstname FROM school WHERE school ='ABC' + @where ============================================= Please check my SQL Above and Could somebody tell me how can I attach the VARIABLE with CURSOR sql statement ?
I have a problem on setting the value for the variable in a declared cursor. Below is my example, I have declared the cursor c1 once at the top in a stored procedure and open it many times in a loop by setting the variable @str_var to different values. It seems the variable cannot be set after the cursor declared. Please advise how can I solve this issue.

Hi, I need a small help. In my stored procedure, i create a table variable and fill it with records based on my query. The ID field within the table is not continous and can have any value in increasing order .e.g. The ID sequence may be like 20, 33, 34, 59, 78, 79... I want to iterate through each record within the table but without using a Cursor. I want to use a loop for this purpose. There are many articles pointing out how to iterate through records in a table variable but that requires the IDs to be continous which is not possible in my case. Can anyone help me solve this problem... Any help is appreciated...
When I execute next query on sqlserver 6.5 nested in stored procedure I can see that 'open testCursor' selected rows using new value of @var. When I execute query on sqlserver 7.0 I can see that 'open testCursor' selected rows using value of @var before 'declare ... cursor'. Is there any way to force sqlserver 7.0 to proccess cursor like it did it before.
select @var = oldValue
declare testCursor cursor for select someColumns from someTable where someColumn = @var
I'm trying to build a select statement for a CURSOR where part of the SQL statement is built using a variable. The following fails to parse:
Declare Cursor1 Cursor For 'select table_name from ' + @database + '.Information_Schema.Tables Where Table_Type = ''Base Table'' order by Table_Name' Open cursor1
That doesn't work, I've also tried using an Execute() statement, no luck there either. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to get a cursor to work when I'm passing in a variable for a column name of the select statement. For example:
declare @col varchar(50)
set @col = 'Temperature'
declare notifycurs cursor scroll for select @col from Table
Obviously this won't work correctly (since the result will simply be 'Temperature' instead of the actual float value for temperature). I tried to use quotes for the entire statement with an EXEC (ie. exec('select '+@col+' from Table' ) but that gave me an error.
Is there a way to pass in a variable for a column name for a curor select statement????
here is the code segment below; ... DECLARE find_dates CURSOR FOR SELECT @SQL = 'select DISTINC(Dates) from ['+@name+'].dbo.['+@t_name+'] order by [Dates] ASC' EXEC (@SQL)
but it gives error, variable assignment is not allowed in a cursor declaration. I need to use dynamic SQL , the only way to access all the dbs and their tables inside. Please help.
I have searched the net for an answer but could not find one. When I declare a table variable and then try to insert fetched row into the table variable like:
Code Snippet declare @table table (col1 nvarchar(50), col2 nvarchar(50)) declare curs for select * from sometable open curs fetch next from curs into @table
I am using a cursor (i know - but this is actually something that is a procedural loop).
So effectively i have a table of names of stored procedures. I now have a store proc that loops around these procs and runs each one in order.
Now i am thinking i would like to be able to set the table it loops around in a variable at the start - is it possible to do this? So effectively use a tablename in a variable to use in the sql to define a cursor?
DECLARE @SOPCursor AS CURSOR; SET @SOPCursor = CURSOR FOR
[Code] ....
The @Table_Name variable is declared, If I replace the delete statement (DELETE FROM @Table_Name ) with (PRINT @table_name) it works and print the table names.
After trying every way I could come up with I can't get a filter clauseto work with a passed variable ...I have a cursor that pulls a filter string from a table (works OK),then I want to use that filter in a second cursor, but can't get thesyntax ...@bakfilter is equal to "MISV2_db_%.BAK" before I try to open and fetchfrom the second cursor. Here is the cursor declaration:DECLARE curFiles CURSOR FORSELECT FileName, FileDateFROM DataFileWHERE (((Active)=1) AND ((FileName) LIKE '@bak_filter'))ORDER BY FileDate DESCWhat do I need to do to get it to use the string contained in@bak_filter?Thanks in advance, Jim
I failed to find record when using variable in cursor in WHERE clause:
ID is uniqueidentifier field in the table DECLARE @EncounterID uniqueidentifier ........ WHERE ID = @EncounterID -> this does not work, though @EncounterID is set properly and can see its value in debugger
WHERE ID = 'E3AE2C5B-06F2-4A3C-A3A4-7D6CC43DE012' -> this works fine and record found
Tried to CAST(@EncounterID as char(40)) but still no luck.
I would greatly appreciate any advise hot to make it working.
Hi I am ramesh here from go-events.com I am using sql mail to send out emails to my mailing list
I have difficulty combining a select statement with a where clause stored in a variable inside a cursor
The users select the mail content and frequency of delivery and i deliver the mail
I use lots of queries and a stored procedure to retrieve thier preferences. In the end i use a cursor to send out mails to each of them.
Because my query is dynamic, the where clause of my select statement is stored in a variable. I have the following code that does not work
For example
DECLARE overdue3 CURSOR LOCAL FORWARD_ONLY FOR SELECT DISTINCT Events.E_Name, Events.E_SDate, Events.E_City, Events.E_ID FROM Events, IndustryEvents + @sqlquery2 OPEN overdue3
I get an error message at the '+' sign which says, cannot use empty object or column names, use a single space if necessary
How do I combine the select statement with the where clause?
I am stuck in a bit of a conundrum for quite a while now, and I hope someone here will help me figure this one out.
So, first things first: let me explain what I need to do. I am designing a web application that will allow users to consult info available in a SQL2000 database. The user will enter the search criterea, and hopefully the web page will show matching results.
The problem is the results shown aren't available per se in the DB, I need to process the data a bit. I decided to do so on the SQL Server side, though the use of cursors. So, when a user defines his search criteria, I run a stored procedure that begins by building a dynamic sql query and creating a cursor for it. I used a global cursor in order to do so. It looked something like this:
SET @sqlQuery = ... (build the dinamic sql query)
SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE myCursor CURSOR GLOBAL FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery
EXEC @cursorQuery
OPEN myCursor
FETCH NEXT FROM myCursor INTO ...
CLOSE myCursor
DEALLOCATE myCursor
This works fine, if there's only one instance of the stored procedure running at a time. Should another user connect to the site and run a search while someone's at it, it'll fail due to the atempt to create a cursor with the same name.
My first thought was to make the cursor name unique, which led me to:
...
SET @cursorName = 'myCursor' + @uniqueUserID
SET @cursorQuery = 'DECLARE '+ @cursorName + 'CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR ' + @sqlQuery
EXEC @cursorQuery
...
The problem with this is that I can't do a FETCH NEXT FROM @cursorName since @cursorName is a char variable holding the cursor name, and not a cursor variable. So to enforce this unique name method the only option I have is to keep creating dynamic sql queries and exucting them. And this makes the sp a bitch to develop and maintain, and I'm guessing it doesn't make it very performant.
So I moved on to my second idea: local cursor variables. The problem with this is that if I create a local cursor variable by executing a dynamic query, I can't extract it from the EXEC (or sp_executesql) context, as it offers no output variable.
I guess my concrete questions are:
Is it possible to execute a dynamic sql query and extract a (cursor) variable from it?Is it possible to populate a local cursor variable with a global cursor, by providing the global cursor's name?Can I create a local cursor variable for a dynamic sql query? How?
Anybody sees another way arround this?Thanks in advance,

Hi, i just migrated an database from oracle to sql server 2005 with the migration tool from microsoft (v3). the migration tool works only with uppercase table and column names, but i need them in lower case. is there a way to modify the names of tables and columns with t-sql to lower case? Thx Frank
Does anyone know the syntax to reference a table in a stored procedure using a parameter? I'm trying to make a stored procedure that will "SELECT INTO" a table as the passed parameter. I keep getting an syntax error when I use this:
CREATE PROCEDURE make_table @tablename varchar(20) AS SELECT * FROM old_table INTO @tablename
I've tried it several ways, but I can't get it to work, and I haven't found any examples of this anywhere. Thanks in advance for any tips.
Hi, What is the difference between <Tablename> . . <ColumnName> and <Tablename> . <ColumnName> this syntax we are using in Storedprocedures. In SQL 2000, <Tablename> . . <ColumnName> is not working
Eg: Tablename =a Column Name = b Difference between a..b and a.b
I know there has already been a thread on this, but I want to push some about it.
In SQL Server, there is a command "SET IDENTITY_INSERT tablename ON".
That allows you to update IDENTITY columns, or do INSERTs that include IDENTITY columns. Although a work-around was given for this in the other thread (reset the IDENTITY seed to the desired value before each INSERT), that is a major pain.
In my database, I have a table that tracks charitable donors. They have a donornum, that is an IDENTITY column, and a year. Together, the donornum and the year form the primary key. Each year end, a copy is made of all donor records in one year, to form the next year's donors. They have to keep the same donornum, but they get a new year value of course. Adding new donors uses the donornum normally, incrementing the IDENTITY donornum value.
The advantage of this is that you can match up one year's donors with the previous year's, by joining on donornum. But I need there to be separate records, so they can have separately updated addresses, annual pledge amounts, etc.
Is there any way the SET IDENTITY_INSERT feature can be added to SQL Everywhere, or some other approach can be found that is less laborious than the existing work-around? (The problem with it is that if you have hundreds of donors to copy, you have to do one ALTER TABLE to reset the identity seed for each donor insert for the new year.)
STATIC Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications
It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a questions regarding that
Static Cursor declare ll cursor global static for select name, salary from ag open ll fetch from ll
while @@FETCH_STATUS=0 fetch from ll update ag set salary=200 where 1=1
close ll deallocate ll
In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.
