Using The Result Of A SELECT As A Vaule To UPDATE With
Jun 13, 2005
Hi AllI hope some1 with more experience of Sql Server 2000 Stored proc's can help me or point me to somewhere I can find the info cos at the moment it's doing my head in, I have spent 2 day,s so far trying to solve the following query, the problem is I do not understand the errors I am getting or why so here is the code that won't work
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateStock
@OrderID intASSELECT (dbo.Products.Stock - dbo.OrderDetails.Quantity) AS NewStockFROM dbo.OrderDetails INNER JOIN dbo.Products ON dbo.OrderDetails.ProductID = dbo.Products.ProductIDWHERE (dbo.OrderDetails.OrderID = @OrderID) UPDATE dbo.Products SET dbo.Products.Stock = NewStockWhat I am trying to do is get the OrderDetails.Quantity form the OrderDetails table the UPDATE the Stock feild in the Products Table by deducting the OrderDetails.Quantity From the Products.Stock to give me the new stock levelWell it works to an extent in that if I do this to SET dbo.Products.Stock = 10 it will put 10 in the Stock feild but I am unabke to get the value of NewStock , which caluculates the correct value into the set statment I keep getting invalid colum name, I have tried any combination I can think of but I still get error of 1 sort or another.So if any1 could help as I am pulling my hair out with this 1So perhaps some1 could cast there eye over it pleaseThanks
SELECT SUM(PTR_QUANTITY) OVER (PARTITION BY PTR_SYMBOL ORDER BY PTR_DATE, PTR_SEQUENCE) AS 'ACUMULADO' FROM MPR_portfolio_transactions ORDER BY PTR_SYMBOL, PTR_DATE, PTR_SEQUENCE
This select statement generates one line per existing record. And what I would like to do next is to UPDATE the field 'PTR_ACUM' with the result of the 'ACUMULADO'
I need to send the result of a procedure to an update statement.Basically updating the column of one table with the result of aquery in a stored procedure. It only returns one value, if it didnt Icould see why it would not work, but it only returns a count.Lets say I have a sproc like so:create proc sp_countclients@datecreated datetimeasset nocount onselect count(clientid) as countfrom clientstablewhere datecreated > @datecreatedThen, I want to update another table with that value:Declare @dc datetimeset @dc = '2003-09-30'update anothertableset ClientCount = (exec sp_countclients @dc) -- this line errorswhere id_ = @@identityOR, I could try this, but still gives me error:declare @c intset @c = exec sp_countclients @dcWhat should I do?Thanks in advance!Greg
I have an Execute SQL Task that executes "select count(*) as Row_Count from xyztable" from an Oracle Server. I'm trying to assign the result to a variable. However when I try to execute I get an error: [Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "RowCount": "Unsupported data type on result set binding Row_Count.".
Which data type should I use for the variable, RowCount? I've tried Int16, Int32, Int64.
When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view. Using third technique i.e. Select Into, I have observed the sort order is again different in the resulting table. My question is what is the difference in mechanisim of query analyzer, bcp, and select into. Thanks
In the database i have a table with this information:key_id =1key_desc =43+34+22+12I want sum the values in key_desc. Something like:SELECT key_desc FROM tableBut the result of the select was "111" and not "43+34+22+12".Is this posible?
Having an old webapplication with dynamic build sql queries. Now the database changed completly because of new db model. Queries are getting much more complex now, so i put them into stored procedures.
Now i want to work with the data in an application for sorting an filtering. All the 'WHERE' conditions are build dynamic within the code. For not modifying the whole application i would like to do something like:
SELECT * FROM (EXECUTE sp_someprocedure) WHERE X = 1
then I try it like this : exec proc_add_comp 'new answer','by me',1
result is : (1 row(s) affected)
but when I look in the db, nothing was changed, comp_answer still has its old value.. comp_answer is nvarchar type column..isnt add operation allowed in update statement? thanks...
I ran a sql somedays ago it gave me result, I ran the same sql today it gave different result. The only difference is that the particular table in the sql is frequently used table with lots of new insert. But the sql I ran is not selecting the new rows, it only deals with already inserted records.
Any idea what will make the sql to give different result from same set of records in different time.
Let's say I have a simple query to return the results of my "Status" table. The query reads as follows:
Code:
Select statusID, statusName From Status
Here is the result set that I am returned:
Code:
22 Associate Member 23 Is Not Paying 24 Exempt 25 Fair Share 26 Member 29 Retiree 30 Staff 32 Fair Share - Self Pay 34 Member - Self Pay
Now, I am using this query for reporting purposes and would like to inject some additional sql that will append one additional row to my result set -- this is what I am calling the 'static' row in the thread title.
In other words, without modifying my database I would like to return the above set of data but with one additional row that has an arbitrary ID with the name "Unknown" or something similar.
again, I want to avoid adding an "Unknown" field directly to my database -- is their any way to "hard code" the selection of this row in my sequal?
Eliko writes "i would like to add a coloumn to a select result, so there will be another coloumn with indexed running numbers for each record. how can i do it?
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLEA WHERE DTRECORD < '1-MARCH-2008'
every times I execute it I get different result.
1st result : 17036986 2nd result : 17037903 3rd result : 17038309
Any idea??? There is no any inserting on TABLEA, so it should not has changes. Is that because of statistic is still updating?? I don't have much knowledge on this so I cannot sure the cause of the problem. Please advise.
My stored procedure is returning me the list of tables names where the given tables PK is used as FK (can be null), based on the result of stored procedure I need to update the tables.
Following Stored procedure will return the list of tables where the usertable's PK is referred as a FK
I want to use the returned table name and update the set eh FK's value = null.
Some how it is not working , can some one point me out on correct solution.
Hi,I have this code following my signature to SELECT a number.I don't know what am I missing, because it always return the number which the variable banID was initialized (32 in this case).The strangest thing is that if I run the statement inside MS SQL SERVER, I get the right result.Any help would be appreciated.Warm Regards,Mário Gamito--// Get inserted user IDint banID = 32 ;SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=192.168.1.6; Initial Catalog=db1; User=sa; Password=secret");try{myConn.Open()}catch (Exception e){Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());}try{SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("SELECT MAX(PublisherID) FROM table1", myConn);banID = Convert.ToInt32(myCommand.ExecuteScalar);}catch (Exception e){ Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());}Response.Write(banID);
I want to export the data from a database and place it on a csv file to be imported to another database. However, I want some columns from the selected data (result of select statement) to be encrypted. What should I do? Is this possible? How do you decrypt the data during import?
The original data is from an MS SQL database to be transferred to a PostgreSQL database.
MS SQL ----- CSV (some columns are encrypted) ---- PostgreSQL (all columns decrypted)
I posted the same question on the mysql category. I wanted to delete it since I just realized today that I posted it on the wrong category but seems like there is no way I can delete.
I have one table with primary key index, when i want to select the result from this particular table, i wish the result arrange by record inserted squence and not by the primary key i had been set.
I have the select statement below - where I use some external functions - and I would like the result to be saved to another table.After executing the statement I end up with a table containing the following columns:
Normally I would use the command 'INTO TableName' but since the statement is so long I don´t know where to place it.The select statement is as follows:
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#trn') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #trn
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#mv') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #mv SELECT PTR_sequence as trno, PTR_CLIENTACCOUNTNUMBER as accountno, PTR_DATE as date_trn, CASE PTR_TAC WHEN 'BUY' THEN 0 ELSE PTR_LOCALAMT END as amt_trn
Hi this is probably a very stupid question, but I still need to know.
How do I set the result of a 'SELECT' statement to a variable? I know I can use CURSOR, but I am certain the SELECT statement will return either 1 record or NULL. Can I use something else apart from CURSOR?
I have a function that is designed to return a variable that containsconcatenated values from a partinular field in the returned rows:DECLARE @output varchar(8000)SELECT@output =CASEWHEN @output IS NULL THEN CAST(TSD.ScheduledTime ASvarchar(4))ELSE @output+ ', '+ ISNULL(CAST(TSD.ScheduledTime ASvarchar(4)),'')ENDFROM TSDWHERE ClientGUID = 2000001447020001 ANDParentGUID = 6000006684068001Select @outputThe variable returned with this code contains:"1200, 1400, 1200, 1400"I want to only get the unique values so that the variable returns "1200,1400". Seems simple enough just to add DISTINCT to the SELECT statement.However, what is returned is simply "1400".I cannot figure out why that is the case. Is there any explanation to thisresult?Side note: I can work around this by using a cursor but I would like toknow why DISTINCT does not work.Many thanks in advance for any help that can be provided!Pat
in table Databackup company keepmonth ----------------- ------------------- 001 12002 12003 6005 607917 609747 6

Ok, for a bunch of cleanup that i am doing with one of my Portal Modules, i need to do some pretty wikid conversions from multi-view/stored procedure calls and put them in less spid calls.
currently, we have a web graph that is hitting the sql server some 60+ times with data queries, and lets just say, thats not good. so far i have every bit of data that i need in a pretty complex sql call, now there is only one thing left to do.
Problem: i need to call an aggregate count on the results of another aggregate function (sum) with a group by.
*ex: select count(select sum(Sales) from ActSales Group by SalesDate) from ActSales
This is seriously hurting me, because from everything i have tried, i keep getting an error at the second select in that statement. is there anotherway without using views or stored procedures to do this? i want to imbed this into my mega sql statement so i am only hitting the server up with one spid.
thanks, Tom Anderson Software Engineer Custom Business Solutions
My Problem is :im my transaction i use insert code like the following :
" Insert into TAB1 (F1,F2,F3) select a.F1,b.F2,b.F3 from TAB2 a,TAB3 b where a.KY1= b.KY1 and b.ORDN in (Select ORDN from OTAB where USER_ID = 'MIKE')"
In order to optimise my code , instead of using a subquery in my select (I have different insert in my transaction with the same subquery). I would like to DECLARE a varibale which will contain the select of the Subquery. and then use it im my different insert. some thing like this.
" BEGIN TRANSACTION DECLARE @OrdSelect int Set @OrdSelect = (Select ORDN from OTAB where USER_ID = 'MIKE') Insert into TAB1 (F1,F2,F3) select a.F1,b.F2,b.F3 from TAB2 a,TAB3 b where a.KY1= b.KY1 and b.ORDN in @OrdSelect COMMIT Tran "
I know that the @OrdSelect will receive the last value of the select not an array of values. which will make my transaction incorrect. I dont want to use Cursor to resolve this issue Too.
an example for the pb 1)First i have created a dynamic cursor :
DECLARE authors_cursor CURSOR DYNAMIC FOR Select DISTINCT LOCATION_EN AS "0Location" from am_location WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7 OPEN authors_cursor FETCH first FROM authors_cursor
2)The result for this cursor is for expamle 'USA'.
3) If now i do an update on that location with a new value 'USA1'
update am_location set location_en = 'USA1' WHERE LOCATION_ID = 7
4)now if i fetch the cursor , i''ll get the old value (USA) not (USA1).
If i remove DISTINCT from the cursor declaration , the process works fine .
Till now I get data form multiple table using join, but unable to understand how can i get the this result based on given table -
Result should be -
