I got a situation in which I would like to create a Views which is using my Test database (Could use more then one test database), but when I test It I would like to create using my Production database (Which is different Database name). Is there any way so that I can pass a parameter at run time which hold a Database name and create those views using that parameter.
Any help really appreciated
Thanks in advance
I am using dynamic sql in my report. I cannot see the sql the report is generating in sql profiler. Is there somewhere else I can view it?
Thanks,

I have a procedure that creates a large dynamic view of several tables. The view is a union view of up to 15 tables. The table names are all <name>_DDMM where name is the standard table name and ddmm is the day and month of the tables data. The tables are created by a software supplied by another company, so I can not ensure that the tables will always have exactly the same fields or number of fields. Sometimes the company will add more fields to the tables in thier updates. So, I have to include the field names in the SQL exec command to create the query. This makes for a very long exec command and depending on the number of tables it needs to include, it can require upwards of a 16,000 character string. Obviously, this can't work, so I had to break up the variable in order to create the procedure. However, I'm wondering if there isn't a better method than creating three different 8000 varchar variables and having overflow write to the next variable in line. Especially if the number of tables needs to be expanded, it could be a problem. Is there a better way to run a create view exec command on a large number of characters?
EDIT: Changed the title to read Procedurally generating a large view.
I'm very new to SQL Server. Please help. I need to create a FUNCTION that creates a view. Then call this function in a SQL which is passed as a parameter to BCP. In Oracle, it would be something like:
create function CREATEVIEW
return number as
begin
create view SampleView as SELECT a,b,c from Mytable;
return 1;
when others then return 0; -- for exception handling
end:
create function DROPVIEW
return number as
begin
Drop view SampleView;
return 1;
when others then return 0; -- for exception handling
end:
Then my BCP will have something like:
BCP "select CREATEVIEW from dual"... QUERYOUT ..
then
BCP "select * from SampleView"... QUERYOUT ..
then drop the view again:
BCP "select DROPVIEW from dual"... QUERYOUT ..
I know there is no DUAL table in SQL SERVER. I just want to know how to code this in SQL Server.
The origin of my problem is that my SQL statement is too long to fit as BCP parameter, hence, am creating a view and reading there and dropping it again. If you can provide me with a better workaround, that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Basically, I'm working on a stored procedure which will retrieve data based on study parameter passed. The datasource is 'Views'. The name of the view is same for every study except that there is corresponding study name included. For example the views names are something like this for study abc 'v_abc_form' and for study def 'v_def_form'.
Below is the select statement I'm trying to use by declaring @study variable but not able to succeed. I'm not sure how to make the table name dynamic.
Select C1, C2, C3
From v_@study_form
Hi,
I have recently had to optimise a site. The DMVs are useful in establihing which queries are taking the longest to run but the data is skewed as it takes into account all queries than have run ever. This is not as useful as profiling a site which in fact I used.
Is there a way to clear all the data returned by the DMVs. This would be useful as all the data could be cleared and then I could just check the DMV every week.
Thanks in advance

I would like to use a dynamic pivot table in my data source view. It seems that a named query can be only one sql statement. So, I cannot use my multi-statement procedure that creates a dynamic pivot table output.
What is the best course of action here? I could hard-code my pivot table query. I could maintain a redundant table in the pivot format. Do I have any good options?

This thing is happening when I m hiting the published report but the reports are working fine in Report designer.

Hi Craig/Kamal,
I got your email address from your web cast. I really enjoyed the web cast and found it to be
very informative.
Our company is planning to use SSIS (VS 2005 / SQL Server 2005). I have a quick question
regarding the product. I have looked for the information on the web, but was not able to find
relevant information.
We are getting Source data from two of our client in the form of Excel Sheet. These Excel sheets
Are generated using reporting services. On examining the excel sheet, I found out that the name
Of the columns contain data itself, so the names are not static such as Jan 2007 Sales, Feb 2007 Sales etc etc.
And even the number of columns are not static. It depends upon the range of date selected by the user.
I wanted to know, if there is a way to import Excel sheet using Integration Services by defining the position
Of column, instead of column name and I am not sure if there is a way for me to import excel with dynamic
Number of columns.
Your help in this respect is highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hi Anthony, I am glad the Web cast was helpful.
Kamal and I have both moved on to other teams in MSFT and I am a little rusty in that area, though in general dynamic numbers of columns in any format is always tricky. I am just assuming its not feasible for you to try and get the source for SSIS a little closer to home, e.g. rather than using Excel output from Reporting Services, use the same/some form of the query/data source that RS is using.
I suggest you post a question on the SSIS forum on MSDN and you should get some good answers.

Hi,
I have a need to display on screen AND email a pdf report to email addresses specified at run time, executing the report with a parameter specified by the user. I have looked into data driven subscriptions, but it seems this is based on scheduling. Unfortunately for the majority of the project I will only have access to SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Production system is Enterprise), so I cannot investigate thoroughly.
So, is this possible using data driven subscriptions? Scenario is:
1. User enters parameter used for query, as well as email addresses.
2. Report is generated and displayed on screen.
3. Report is emailed to addresses specified by user.
Any tips on how to get this working?
Thanks

If anyone could confirm...
SQL Server 2000 SP4 to multiple SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on PDAs. My DB on SQL2k is published with a single dynamic row filter using host_name() on my 'parent' table and also join filters from parent to child tables. The row filter uses joins to other tables elsewhere that are not published to evaluate what data is allowed through the filter.
E.g. Published parent table that contains suppliers names, etc. while child table is suppliers' products. The filter queries host_name(s) linked to suppliers in unpublished table elsewhere.
First initial sync with snapshot is correct and as I expected - PDA receives only the data from parent (and thus child tables) that matches the row filter for the host_name provided.
However - in my scenario host_name <--> suppliers may later be updated E.g. more suppliers assigned to a PDA for use or vice versa. But when I merge the mobile DB, the new data is not downloaded? Tried re-running snapshot, etc., no change.
Question: I thought the filters would remain dynamic and be applied on each sync?
I run a 'harmless' update on parent table using TSQL e.g. "update table set 'X' = 'X'" and re-sync. Now the new parent records are downloaded - but the child records are not!
Question: I wonder why if parent records are supplied, why not child records?
If I delete existing DB and sync new, I get the updated snapshot and all is well - until more data added back at server...
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is it possible (or not) to have dynamic filters run during second or subsequent merge?
I have tried building an Inline TVF, as I assume this is how it would be used on the DB; however, I am receiving the following error on my code, I must be missing a step somewhere, as I've never done this before. I'm lost on how to implement this clr function on my db?

I have a Stored Procedure for processing a Bill of Material.
One column on the Assembly Table is a Function Name that contains some busniess rules.
OK, now I'm doing a Proof of Concept and I'm stumped.
Huuuuh!
I will ultimately have about 100 of these things. My plan was using Dynamic SQL to go execute the function.
Note: The function just returns a bit.
So; here's what I had in mind ...
if isnull(@FnNameYN,'') <> ''
exec spinb_CheckYN @FnNameYN, @InvLineID, @FnBit = @FnBit output
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spinb_CheckYN
@FnNameYN varchar(50),
@InvLineID int,
@FnBit bit output
AS
declare @SQL varchar(8000)
set @SQL = '
if dbo.' + @FnNameYN + ' (' + convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) + ')) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0'
exec (@SQL)
GO
Obviously; @FnBit is not defined in @SQL so that execution will not work.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.
So; is there a way to get a value out of a Dynamic SQL piece of code and get that value INTO my OUTPUT variable?
My many thanks to anyone who can solve this riddle for me.
Thank You!
Sigh: For now, it looks like I'll have a huge string of "IF" statements for each business rule function, as follows:
Hopefully a better solution comes to light.

Hi guys 'n gals,
I created a query, which makes use of a temp table, and I need the results to be displayed in a View. Unfortunately, Views do not support temp tables, as far as I know, so I put my code in a stored procedure, with the hope I could call it from a View....
I tried:

and unfortunately, it does not let this run.
Anybody able to help me out please?
Cheers!

then i need to transform those in to new file comma delimited destination file with a name abc_yyyymmdd,txt and others counting file counting record abc_count_yyyymmdd.txt. and move it to a designated folder. and the source file is then moved to archived folder

I had given one of our developers create view permissions, but he wants to also modify views that are not owned by him, they are owned by dbo.
I ran a profiler trace and determined that when he tries to modify a view using query designer in SQLem or right clicks in SQLem on the view and goes to properties, it is performing a ALTER VIEW. It does the same for dbo in a trace (an ALTER View). He gets a call failed and a permission error that he doesn't have create view permissions, object is owned by dbo, using both methods.
If it is doing an alter view how can I set permissions for that and why does it give a create view error when its really doing an alter view? Very confusing.
I have this view in SQL server:
CREATE VIEW dbo.vwFeat
AS
SELECT dbo.Lk_Feat.Descr, dbo.Lk_Feat.Price, dbo.Lk_Feat.Code, dbo.SubFeat.SubNmbr

I have created a dynamic SQL program that returns a range of columns (1 -12) based on the date range the user may select. Each dynamic column is month based, however, the date range may overlap from one year to another. Thus, the beginning month for one selection may be October 2005, while another may have the beginning month of January 2007.
Basically, the dynamic SQL is a derived Pivot table. The problem that I need to resolve is how do I now use this dynamic result set in a Report. Please keep in mind that the name of the columns change based on the date range select.
I have come to understand that a dynamic anything is a moving target!
Please advise.

I getThe column prefix 'dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit' does not match with atable name or alias name used in the query.Upon closer inspection, I found two ON for the inner join, which I dontthink is correct.So, how can the view work, but not the SQL that defines the view?SQL Server 2000, up to date patches:SELECT dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.aEventID,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nParentEventID,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nUserID,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nColumnID,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nKeyID,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.dChangeTime,CAST(dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.vToValue ASnVarchar(512)) AS vToValue, dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nChangeMode,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.tChildEventText, CASEWHEN nConstraintType = 3 THEN 5 ELSE tblColumnMain.nDataType END ASnDataType,dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nID,CAST(dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.vFromValue AS nVarchar(512)) ASvFromValueFROM dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit WITH (NOLOCK) LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.tblColumnMain WITH (NoLock) INNER JOIN---- Posters comment: here is the double ON--dbo.tblCustomField WITH (NoLock) ONdbo.tblColumnMain.aColumnID = dbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nColumnID ONdbo.tbl_5001_NumericAudit.nColumnID =dbo.tblCustomField.nColumnID LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.tblConstraint WITH (NOLOCK) ONdbo.tblCustomField.nConstraintID = dbo.tblConstraint.aConstraintID AND(dbo.tblConstraint.nConstraintType = 4 ORdbo.tblConstraint.nConstraintType = 9 ORdbo.tblConstraint.nConstraintType = 3)UNION ALLSELECT aEventID, nParentEventID, nUserID, nColumnID, nKeyID,dChangeTime, CAST(CAST(vToValue AS decimal(19, 6)) AS nVarchar(512)) ASvToValue,nChangeMode, tChildEventText, 5 AS nDataType,nID, CAST(CAST(vFromValue AS decimal(19, 6)) AS nVarchar(512)) ASvFromValueFROM dbo.tbl_5001_FloatAudit WITH (NOLOCK)UNION ALLSELECT aEventID, nParentEventID, nUserID, nColumnID, nKeyID,dChangeTime, CAST(vToValue AS nVarchar(512)) AS vToValue, nChangeMode,tChildEventText, 2 AS nDataType, nID,CAST(vFromValue AS nVarchar(512)) AS vFromValueFROM dbo.tbl_5001_StringAudit WITH (NOLOCK)UNION ALLSELECT aEventID, nParentEventID, nUserID, nColumnID, nKeyID,dChangeTime, CONVERT(nVarchar(512), vToValue, 121) AS vToValue,nChangeMode,tChildEventText, 3 AS nDataType, nID,CONVERT(nVarchar(512), vFromValue, 121) AS vFromValueFROM dbo.tbl_5001_DateAudit WITH (NOLOCK)
View 1 Replies View RelatedA colleague of mine has a view that returns approx 100000 rows in about 60 seconds.
He wants to use the data returned from that view in an OLE DB Source component.
When he selects the view from the drop-down list of available tables then SSIS seems to hang without any data being returned (he waited for about 15 mins).
He then changed the OLE DB Source component to use a SQL statement and the SQL statement was: SELECT * FROM <viewname>
In this instance all the data was returned in approx 60 seconds (as expected).
This makes no sense. One would think that selecting a view from the drop-down and doing a SELECT *... from that view would be exactly the same. Evidently that isn't the case.
Can anyone explain why?
Thanks

I need to pass all values of field of a table into a parameter. My table contains a field called typeID, there are 15 typeID in the table. Currently when a user choses a single type they see a report for that type. I want to give them the ability to run a report on all types. My thinking is that I should just be able to pass all typeID values into a string and pass it to the stored Proc... but being new at sql and this truley being the first thing I have ever done in it... I am missing the mark.
Param is @TypeID
Here is the sql to exec the stored proc:USE [db]
GODECLARE @return_value int
EXEC @return_value = [dbo].[OL]
@TypeID = 2,SELECT 'Return Value' = @return_value
GO
I know this is not the actual SP, I am just trying to get it to work, then I will be able to write the proc. It should be something like @Option = 1 AND 2 or 1 & 2 or something to that nature?
Hi there,I am trying to create a dynamic sql statement as follows:ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GET_FIS_LONGTITLE] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @TABLENAME VARCHAR(25), @COLUMNNAME VARCHAR(25), @COLUMNVALUE VARCHAR(25), @RETURNVALUE VARCHAR(60) OUTASBEGIN DECLARE @SQL AS VARCHAR(4000) SET @SQL = 'SELECT LONGTITLE FROM ' + CAST(@TABLENAME AS VARCHAR(25)) + ' WHERE ' + CAST(@COLUMNNAME AS VARCHAR(25)) + ' = ''' + CAST(@COLUMNVALUE AS VARCHAR(25)) + '''' execute (@SQL) --''' + CAST(@RETURNVALUE AS VARCHAR(60)) + ''' = END here I am trying to get the long title of an item based on the tablename, columnname, the column value. So the select returns the long title from the table as required. But I want to assign that value to the @RETURNVALUE So I tried:SET @SQL = 'SELECT ''' + CAST(@RETURNVALUE AS VARCHAR(60)) + ''' = LONGTITLE FROM ' + CAST(@TABLENAME AS VARCHAR(25)) +
' WHERE ' + CAST(@COLUMNNAME AS VARCHAR(25)) + ' = ''' + CAST(@COLUMNVALUE AS VARCHAR(25)) + ''''
It does not work. I do not know what is missing here.Any help would be greatly appreciated.thanks,Murthy here
Hello All,
I'm trying to build a SQL statement dynamically based on what was selected.
I'm not sure how set strSQL equal to all the items checked in a checklist.
Also, I don't know how to add the item to strSQL once it's determined that it has been checked.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim strSQL As String = 'dynamic SQL statement
Dim li As ListItem
For Each li In cklCheckList.Items
If li.Selected = True Then
'add item to strSQL
End If
Next
End Sub
Thank you!

Hello Pros
Is it possible to author a stored procedure with dynamic sql inside,
I need the SP for search purposes, take that i have a number of search criterions
represented by a number of text boxes in the front-end web app, so if the users fills up the text box i will include it in the search condition ....
It's so easy to do it in the code-behind file by the means of a dynamic string with the search clauses appended to it, but i wanna do it with SPs
Any help will be highly appreciated,
HI !!
We are creating an Ad Hoc query tool for our Voters Profile system. Voters Profile Table has voting history for person. It has columns like : G04 P04 G03 P03 G02 P02 G01 P01 G00 P00 and History
G = general election P = primary election xx = represent year
G04 etc columns has value = "Y" if person voted in that year else its null
If Person A voted in General Election in year 2004 and Primary Election in 2003 then
History Column = G04P03
Now, we need to create a Ad Hoc Query where people ask for:
"Give me a list of People who votes in All 4 general election"
OR
"Give me a list of people who voted 2 times in Primary Election"
In order to do such query what we should do? Can some one help?
