I have seen in the past this stored proc someone posted to find out any string value from anywhere in a database like,
exec where_am_i 'Joe%' will give me all the stored procs or tables where 'Joe..' appears.
Any one has this stored proc?
Please advise!
I have a created a stored procedure which gets the values from the 'Orders' table. The procedure goes like this:
CREATE PROC DataSource_GetDetails@OrderId int
ASDECLARE @ColNumber int
SELECT @ColNumber = (Select Coalesce(Col_length('Orders','BranchId'),0))
IF(@ColNumber >0)
BEGIN
SELECT Orders.OrderID,
Orders.Buyer,Orders.Seller
Orders.BranchIDFROM Orders
WHERE Orders.OrderID = @OrderId
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT Orders.OrderID,
Orders.Buyer,Orders.Seller
FROM Orders
WHERE Orders.OrderID = @OrderId
END
Here i check whether a column named 'BranchId' exists in the 'Orders' table in a particular database and based on the result 2 different select statements are returned. The problem is, if i run this stored proc in the database which does not have a column 'BranchId' it throws me an errorMsg 207, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Invalid column name 'BranchID'.
How do i tackle this in the stored proc?
Thanks
I am fairly new to using triggers and stored procs in SQL Server and could use some help.
Scenario:
I have a table on SQL Server database running on a Windows server (of course) that contains information about articles. A second server in the shop is set up as a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) box. What I would like to do is any time the SQL server table is updated or a record is added, tables in MySQL would then be updated to reflect the changes on the first server. My thought is to try and do this with triggers and a stored proc.
Questions:
1) Assuming MySQL can be accessed through ODBC, can an ODBC connection be set up inside a stored proc or trigger, or would this have to be done through the Windows ODBC Data Sources tool in the control panel?
2) Can a Stored Proc be used in a trigger?
3) Can a Stored Proc call an outside function, such as an API call for third party software?
Thanks in advance.
Hi All,Quick question, I have always heard it best practice to check for exist, ifso, drop, then create the proc. I just wanted to know why that's a bestpractice. I am trying to put that theory in place at my work, but they areasking for a good reason to do this before actually implementing. All Icould think of was that so when you're creating a proc you won't get anerror if the procedure already exists, but doesn't it also have to do withCompilation and perhaps Execution. Does anyone have a good argument fordoing stored procs this way? All feedback is appreciated.TIA,~CK
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an ASP that has been working fine for several months, but itsuddenly broke. I wonder if windows update has installed some securitypatch that is causing it.The problem is that I am calling a stored procedure via an ASP(classic, not .NET) , but nothing happens. The procedure doesn't work,and I don't get any error messages.I've tried dropping and re-creating the user and permissions, to noavail. If it was a permissions problem, there would be an errormessage. I trace the calls in Profiler, and it has no complaints. Thedatabase is getting the stored proc call.I finally got it to work again, but this is not a viable solution forour production environment:1. response.write the SQL call to the stored procedure from the ASPand copy the text to the clipboard.2. log in to QueryAnalyzer using the same user as used by the ASP.3. paste and run the SQL call to the stored proc in query analyzer.After I have done this, it not only works in Query Analyzer, but thenthe ASP works too. It continues to work, even after I reboot themachine. This is truly bizzare and has us stumped. My hunch is thatwindows update installed something that has created this issue, but Ihave not been able to track it down.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to retrieve the resultset of a stored procedure from another procedure in sql server 2000.
Basically I am calling proc2 from the inside of proc1.
proc2 returns 2 resultsets. I want to process these two resultsets
from within proc1.
If its possible , please provide sample code.
thanks in advance,

I am working with a large application and am trying to track down a bug. I believe an error that occurs in the stored procedure isbubbling back up to the application and is causing the application not to run. Don't ask why, but we do not have some of the sourcecode that was used to build the application, so I am not able to trace into the code.
So basically I want to examine the stored procedure. If I run the stored procedure through Query Analyzer, I get the following error message:
Msg 2758, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GetPortalSettings, Line 74RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 60002 in sysmessages.
(1 row(s) affected)
(1 row(s) affected)
I don't know if the error message is sufficient enough to cause the application from not running? Does anyone know? If the RAISERROR occursmdiway through the stored procedure, does the stored procedure terminate execution?
Also, Is there a way to trace into a stored procedure through Query Analyzer?
-------------------------------------------As a side note, below is a small portion of my stored proc where the error is being raised:
SELECT @PortalPermissionValue = isnull(max(PermissionValue),0)FROM Permission, PermissionType, #GroupsWHERE Permission.ResourceId = @PortalIdAND Permission.PartyId = #Groups.PartyIdAND Permission.PermissionTypeId = PermissionType.PermissionTypeId
IF @PortalPermissionValue = 0BEGIN RAISERROR (60002, 16, 1) return -3END

Hi all
I have about 5 stored procedures that, among other things, execute exactly the same SELECT statement
Instead of copying the SELECT statement 5 times, I'd like each stored proc to call a single stored proc that executes the SELECT statement and returns the resultset to the calling stored proc
The SELECT statement in question retrieves a single row from a table containing 10 columns.
Is there a way for a stored proc to call another stored proc and gain access to the resultset of the called stored proc?
I know about stored proc return values and about output parameters, but I think I am looking for something different.
Thanks
I would like to know if the following is possible/permissible:
myCLRstoredproc (or some C# stored proc)
{
//call some T SQL stored procedure spSQL and get the result set here to work with
INSERT INTO #tmpCLR EXECUTE spSQL
}
spSQL
(
INSERT INTO #tmpABC EXECUTE spSQL2
)
spSQL2
(
// some other t-sql stored proc
)
Can we do that? I know that doing this in SQL server would throw (nested EXECUTE not allowed). I dont want to go re-writing the spSQL in C# again, I just want to get whatever spSQL returns and then work with the result set to do row-level computations, thereby avoiding to use cursors in spSQL.
Im new to stored procedure, but here's what I want, if someone can get me started and provide this as an example it would be VERY welcome!I have the following, a SP with parameter IsMale.

If it's not empty I want to add some text to my selection query: AND IsMale=paramvalueHere's the SP so far:ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spFindUsersAdvanced] --declare parameters here@IsMale bitASBEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT DISTINCT BirthDate,IsMale, FROM aspnet_Users INNER JOIN tblUserData ON aspnet_Users.UserId = tblUserData.UserID WHERE tblUserData.Username<>''IF @IsMale THENBEGIN AND IsMale='True'ENDELSEBEGIN AND IsMale='False'ENDEND IFEND1.

I'm trying to construct the following SQL statement but am missing something somewhere.
I get a syntax error with the 1st FROM highlighted.
If i construct a query out of the bit that works and then construct a query on that query then i can get it to work no problem but how to mimic that in SQL ? I can't simply view the SQL of the queries because the query names replace the SQL statements.
I'm trying to SUM the 5 volumes that get returned by the TOP 5 SQL statement. The VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType query returns the TotalVolume which will enable me to divide the SUMmed 5 volumes by the TotalVolume to obtain a %age.
SELECT
Type,
Sum(Volume) AS Volume,
TotalVolume
FROM

(SELECT TOP 5
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Type,
VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume

I have a xxx.exe running on SQL 2000 server as a sql job every hour. For some reason this job sometime just hung in the middle and never finish. But

Hi everyone.
We are running Sql 6.5 sp5 on a Pentium II 350 Mhz with 512 Mb. RAM, 1 ScSi 4 Gb hd, one 8Gb ScSi hd and 2 IDE hd (13,6 Gb and 8Gb) computer running windows NT 4.0 sp 6 without any problems.
Now have bought a new computer. The new one is a Pentium III 733 Mhz 512 Mb Ram with 2 ScSi ultra wide 2 18Gb each and one 40 Gb Ide Hd. We have installed windows NT 4.0 sp 6 and Sql 6.5 sp 5. We have restored our database to make some tests to it. The database is 7 Gb big.
The results of our test are that the old computer is between 20% and 30% faster than the new one when doing sql instructions and using the database even knowing that the hd´s of the new computers are 4 times faster than the old ones.
Would you please give us any help or clue that would make the new computer go faster?
We know that upgrading to sql 7 will work but we need first to make this computer work better with the 6.5.
Thank you.

I often use DTS to move databases between the servers. When you choose "Transform" data and “Column Mappings and Transformation” window opens, the default option is “Append rows to destination table”.
Question: Is there a way to change the default option to “Delete rows in destination table”, so I wouldn’t have to go thru the transformation of dozens of tables every time I move databases around.
P.S. I know that I can save DTS package with my settings and use it later. The problem is that every time it might be different database or objects might change. So, it is not a solution for me.
Thanks
Dear All,
I have a client requirement. We are integrating two applications. So the problem is that, whenever some updates (meaning to say "create" , "delete" , "update") happens in the SQL DB Tables, i needed to track that data and send it to a different system.
What I have thought abt is that if SQL could generate a file with all the values deleted/updated/created in the DB, then I could take those values and do the needful. Please help me..
Thanks,
