Using Variables For Object Names

Oct 7, 2005

I am writing an sproc for creating a table, but I don't know how I can use parameter values as object names (for example the name of the table needs to be [@sFile1+'_'+@sLinkName+'_'+@sFile2']. It seems that I could concatenate my whole CREATE TABLE string into a single variable and use EXEC to run it, but I'd prefer to be able to do it in the context of the sProc (I read that EXEC always has the current user's permissions). What is a good technique?

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.CreateLinkTable
@sFile1 varchar(50),
@sFile2 varchar(50),
@sLinkName varchar(50)

AS

CREATE TABLE [@sFile1+'_'+@sLinkName+'_'+@sFile2]
(
[GID_ID]uniqueidentifierROWGUIDCOLNOT NULL,
['GID_'+@sFile1]uniqueidentifierNOT NULL,
['GID_'+@sFile2]uniqueidentifierNOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT ['LNK_'+@sFile1+'_'+@sLinkname+'_'+@sFile2]
FOREIGN KEY(['GID_'+@sFile2])
REFERENCES [@sFile2](GID_ID)
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION
NOT FOR REPLICATION,
CONSTRAINT ['LNK_'+@sFile2+'_'+@sLinkname+'_'+@sFile1]
FOREIGN KEY(['GID_'+@sFile1])
REFERENCES [@sFile1](GID_ID)
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION
NOT FOR REPLICATION
)

Table Names And Variables

Nov 14, 2005

I have a cursor which populates a variable with the name of each user table within my DB.
I'm trying to copy the tables one at a time by using a command like this:
SELECT * INTO @NewTable FROM @OrigTable
Query analyzer tells me that there's incorrect syntax near the keyword 'INTO'.
This seems fair enough to me as I assume it's trying to put the data into the variable rather than the table name which is held within the variable. Does any know how I can get around this?
Are there any alternative ways of copying the table structure (preferable without the data)?

BTW both variables are of type char(100)

Using Variables To Select Column Names

Oct 20, 2006

Hi

I've tried declaring and setting variables in my sql statement and then trying to use them instead of defining a column directly - sorry quite hard to explain, i'll do a simple example

eg

DECLARE @column
DECLARE @value
SET @column = 'col1'
SET @value = 'bloggs'

Select * FROM table1 WHERE @column = @value

It keeps returning no results even though i've tried

Select * FROM table1 WHERE col1 = 'bloggs' -- which returns results

I realise its the column which is not being selected, but there must be a way by using a variable?

thanks

Use Of Variables In Table Names And Fields

Jun 22, 2006

Hi, I am new to using SQL for anything more in depth than querying and reporting.

I am trying to create a series of SQL scripts which will be used across several customer sites so need to be easily customisable. What I want to do is have all of the table names, field names and customisable items handled by variables which will be declared and set at the beginning of the script, making them easy to find and change. The problem I am having at the moment is with creating a new table using variables for table name and field names, can anyone help?

quote:
DECLARE
@a_tmptbl varchar(15),
@a_fieldid1 varchar(15)

set @a_fieldid1 = 'newFieldid'
set @a_tmptbl = 'newTable'

create table @a_tmptbl ( @a_fieldid1 varchar(15), value float, counter INT);

insert into @a_tmptbl values ( "foobar", 21.76, 1);

select * from @a_tmptbl;

The error I am getting is:

quote:Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 8
Line 8: Incorrect syntax near '@a_tmptbl'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 10
Must declare the variable '@a_tmptbl'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 12
Must declare the variable '@a_tmptbl'.


Any advice would be gratefully accepted

Passing Variables And Column Names To EXEC

Oct 9, 2007

Hello, I'm quite new to T-SQL, but since I'm trying to create a statistics page on database contents (Counting savesets in Enterprise Vault saveset Databases) I prefer to do the coding in the databases.
I create temp tables for the distinct partitions in the saveset table. Then I pass 2 variables to the EXEC function, but it seems unable to pass the ['+@idpartition+']-variable as a value:
Declare @EVBase varchar(20)Declare @IdPartition INTSet @EVBase=(SELECT EVMbxName from Servers) Set @IdPartition=(SELECT TOP 1 Dist_Partitions FROM TEMP_EV1)EXEC('SELECT COUNT (IdPartition)FROM ['+@evbase+']..SAVESET SS LEFT OUTER JOIN SavesetStore SSS ON SS.SavesetIdentity = SSS.SavesetIdentityWHERE [IdPartition] =  ['+@idpartition+'] AND StoreIdentifier IS NULL')
Server: Msg 207, Level 16, State 3, Line 2Invalid column name '0'.
If I change the last line to: WHERE [IdPartition] =  2 AND StoreIdentifier IS NULL')The script runs fine - but I need the value from the table. Any help will be appreciated.
Best regards, Tim

Variables For Table Names In Stored Proc

Nov 8, 2004

i'm trying to create a stored procedure that takes 2 input parameters (taken from a querystring): a table name, and a number that needs to be checked whether it exists within that table. yes, i have different tables, one for each forum, so they will have the same structures -- i'm figuring this approach will result in faster page-load times if the tables have less in them. if everyone here tells me that having one table for all the forums will work fine, i'll just go that route, but if not, here's my procedure:

Create Procedure VerifySubjectNum
(@forum_ID VARCHAR(10), @subject_num INT)
As
If Exists
(SELECT subject_num FROM @forum_ID WHERE subject_num = @subject_num)
Return 1
Else
Return 0

when i try to create this, i get an error saying @forum_ID must be declared... why doesn't it work within the select for the EXISTS?

Case Sensitive Object Names?

Mar 19, 2007

My new DB seems to be "case-sensitive". I have a table named Bld_List.

Select * From Bld_List

returns all records in QA. However, if I don't follow the correct case

Select * From bld_list

I get this error: Invalid object name 'bld_list'.

Also, when I try to get rid of some unnecessary records by using this

DELETE
FROM Bld_List
WHERE (PRODUCT IN
(SELECT DISTINCT Product
FROM BldOff_Inv_Daily))

I get this error: Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation.

I imagine I set something up wrong when I first built the DB, but I don't know what to look for.

Thanks

Variables As Table Or Column Names In A Stored Procedure

Apr 16, 2008

I would like to use variables to set the table name and some column names of a SQL Query in a stored procedure (the variable values will come from a webpage)... something like this:ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SelectWorkHours

How To Use User Defined Variables As Table Names In SSIS

Dec 4, 2007

I am a SSIS novice, and need help to do the following:

Every day a Table is generated by the system of format XR+present Year + present month + present day. My task is pretty simple. I am to devise a SSIS package that will import this table on to a different server.

I have defined the variable as user defined variable. I am also able to specify the variable in OLE db source editor -> Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable. When I am click the 'Columns' feature, I get the following error

TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E37.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: Opening a rowset for "xr+ convert(char(8),getdate(), 112)" failed. Check that the object exists in the database.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC02020E8 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------

In short can any one tell me a correct way of using a table name as variable in
Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable ?

One other question: can I make use of a dynamic SQL in Execute SQL Task? If yes, how do I write the query

exec( 'select * from ' + @table)

or just

select * from @table

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Can't Save Server Names In Object Explorer

Jul 10, 2006

In Management Studio, under Registered Servers, I double-click a server name (could be sql 2000 or sql 2005 server) and it apperars in "Object Explorer" where I can work with it. I click the "Save All" button in Management Studio, exit Studio, and re-start Studio. When I do, I find that all the servers I placed under "Object Explorer" are now missing and I need to go through the "double-click the registered server" ritual again. And again, and again.

What am I doing wrong here? Why don't the servers "stick" in Object Explorer?

TIA

Same SQL Server DB engine (2012), connected with two different clients (2008 and 2012).

SQL Tools :: Can Make SSMS Parse Command Resolve Object Names?

Jul 29, 2010

When I run the parse command in SSMS, it merely does a syntax check.  When I run through the export data wizard by right clicking on a table, it allows a query as the data source.  When I click on the parse button in the window that accepts that query, it resolves object names and notifies me of invalid ones.  I'd really like the same thing to happen when I parse in SSMS...

Table Names In Stored Procedures As String Variables And Temporary Table Question

Apr 10, 2008

How 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.

How To Pass The Excel Sheet Names To The Excel Source Control Through Variables

Feb 22, 2006

I am trying to get the contents of the Excel Files dynamically and dumping into the SQL Database using SSIS. Through WMI Event Watcher, I could find when one or more Excel files dumped in a particular folder and using ForEach Loop Container I was able to take all the filenames and pass it through Variables. But at the same time in the Data Flow, I have to pass each Sheet of an Excel File to the Excel Source control and export the data to my SQL Database using OLEDB Destination.

For that I need to get the names of each sheets in an Excel File and pass it to the Excel Source Control through variables. But when I give Data Access Mode as "Table name or view name variable" and provide the variable name in that, then it is giving an error message as "A destination table name has not been provided".

And at the same time, Since I was not able to provide an static Filename (as I am passing through Variables), when I tried to map the columns in the OleDB Destination, it is not allowing me to map the columns.

So all these things I should do at Run-time using Variables in SSIS. I don't want to hard-code any filenames or Sheet names. If any one of you have a solution, please share with me.







Thanks & Regards,

Prakash Srinivasan

Integration Services :: Chinese Names Export To CSV - Garbled Names

Aug 11, 2015

As part if a recent requirement I have to export Chinese/Singaporean names in a CSV file. The data in the tables is a NVARCHAR(256).

I am using a FlatFile Connection manager where all the present columns from the table are exported as NVARCHARs. My understanding was that the Chinese/Singaporean names would blend seamlessly with NVARCHARs in place. But, they get garbled when pushed to the CSV.

Here is the connection manager setup

There are a lot of suggestions of fixing this by copying/pasting to a notepad file and changing the formatting... But I cant do that since the file is generated using a schedules SSIS package. How can I tweak the process to fix the issue?

DB Mirroring: Different Server Names With Same Instance Names

Jan 31, 2008

I'm going to be setting up DB mirroring between two SQL Server 2005 boxes. Since these are on two different servers, can the instance names be the same? Is there any reason NOT to do so if the mirror server is going to be used exclusively for DB mirroring?

For example: if the my primary DB is located on SERVER1INSTANCE1, can the mirror be SERVER2INSTANCE1 or do the instance names have to be different even though they're on different boxes.

Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor (Inner Variables Vs Outer Variables)

Sep 4, 2006

Hi,

I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

How To Design A Package With Variables So That I Can Run It By Dos Command Assigning Values To Variables?

Jan 24, 2006

Hi,

I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .

I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).

It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.

are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.

exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****

/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW

/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"

' The Definition Of Object [object Name] Has Changed Since It Was Compiled' Error When Altering A Trigger In 2005

Aug 17, 2007

Hello All

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this question to, so if it's not, please accept my apologies.

I'm working in SQL Server 2005 with a database that was migrated to 2005 from SQL Server 2000. I have to alter a trigger on a table for some functionality changes, and when I modify the trigger and then access it through the application the database is working with, I receive this error:


There was a error in the [stored procedure name] procedure. Error Number: -2147217900 Error Description: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The definition of object '[trigger name]' has changed since it was compiled.


[stored procedure name] and [trigger name] are where the actual names appear in the message.

I've tried running sp_recompile on the trigger, stored procedure, and table that are associated with this, and nothing works. I have dropped the trigger, which allows the save process to complete (but doesn't perform the required functionality, of course), and then re-created the trigger, but the error message still comes up. The compatibility level for the database is SQL Server 2000 (80) (as it was migrated from SQL Server 2000 as I mentioned above).

Has anyone seen this, and if so, how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Jay
