Write To A Text File From A Stored Procedure
Oct 19, 2011
I have a sp which saves the necessary information regarding the status of action(whether success or failure, rows affected etc) to a log table say( StatusLog )After this, I was sending a database mail with information taken from the log table via sp_send_dbmail. Now I would like to write the status information to a 'txt' file instead of sending via mail.How can I write to a text file from a stored procedure in ms sql server 2005?

Hi,
I want to create a text file and write to text it by calling its assembly from Stored Procedure. Full Detail is given below
I write a code in class to create a text file and write text in it.
1) I creat a class in Visual Basic.Net 2005, whose code is given below:
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class WLog
Public Shared Sub LogToTextFile(ByVal LogName As String, ByVal newMessage As String)
Dim w As StreamWriter = File.AppendText(LogName)
LogIt(newMessage, w)
w.Close()
End Sub
Public Shared Sub LogIt(ByVal logMessage As String, ByVal wr As StreamWriter)
wr.Write(ControlChars.CrLf & "Log Entry:")
wr.WriteLine("(0) {1}", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(), DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString())
wr.WriteLine(" :")
wr.WriteLine(" :{0}", logMessage)
wr.WriteLine("---------------------------")
wr.Flush()
End Sub
Public Shared Sub LotToEventLog(ByVal errorMessage As String)
Dim log As System.Diagnostics.EventLog = New System.Diagnostics.EventLog
log.Source = "My Application"
log.WriteEntry(errorMessage)
End Sub
End Class
2) Make & register its assembly, in SQL Server 2005.
3)Create Stored Procedure as given below:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SP_LogTextFile
(
@LogName nvarchar(255), @NewMessage nvarchar(255)
)
AS EXTERNAL NAME
[asmLog].[WriteLog.WLog].[LogToTextFile]
4) When i execute this stored procedure as
Execute SP_LogTextFile 'C:Test.txt','Message1'
5) Then i got the following error
Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1, Procedure SP_LogTextFile, Line 0
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'SP_LogTextFile':
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:Test.txt' is denied.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException:

Can you, and if yes, how do you, write an xml file using a stored procedure. For example the sp below writes this new record to a sql table. How would I change it to write it to an xml file ?
CREATE Procedure [spOB_AddtblOB_Properties]
@strPropertyRef varchar (100),
@strRouteNo numeric,
@strAdd1 nvarchar(1000),
@strPostcode nvarchar(10)
as
Insert into tblOB_Properties (
PR_PropertyRef,
PR_RouteNo,
PR_Add1,
PR_Postcode)
values(
@strPropertyRef,
@strRouteNo,
@strAdd1,
@strPostcode)
GO

Want to write from a table variable to a text file from a stored procedure.Read about xp_cmdshell bcp etc. but worried because it's supposed to be a security problem and needs to be from a permanent database.Also am getting error "The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'xp_cmdshell'..."
1. Is xp_cmdshell a bad idea to use even if I get permissions ?
2. Can a "permanent" table be used in a stored procedure starting out fresh each time with 0 rows rather than use a table variable ?

I have a C# SQL 2005 .net stored procedure which scrubs a text file looking for characters not in a range of characters and replacing them with another character. This works fine except when the process is killed. When this happens the file handle of the file being scrubbed is not released. I use a try catch finally block when opening the file and the output file. The finally section fiushes the output file and closes all files and streams but still when I go to access the file again or use the file in explorer it says the file is still in use. Should I be handling this some other way? How do I know the files will always be closed correctly.

Hi,
SQL Server 2005, sp2
What I am trying to do is very simple. I just want to run 2 stored procedures, then have the output from both sp's written to a single file.
I created a Data Flow task, then put 2 OLE DB Source adapters in the Data Flow task, one for each stored procedure.
Next, I dropped a Flat File destination object onto the page. However, I can only connect ONE arrow from one of the OLE DB Source adapters to the Flat File destination. It won't let me connect both.
What am I doing wrong here? How can I accomplish what I am trying to do here?
Thanks much

I have a table with a column [FileData] of type TEXT or XML. I need to write the content of the column to a file, using sp_OAWrite for example, but the stored procedure who needs to read the content and write it to the file does not work because the limitation is no local variable for those types. What use is that datatype if i can not use it in procedures like this?
Anyone out there who could give me a tip on how to solve that?

I want to check a table to see what rows have been updated today, then write to a text file some data from the selected rows; then I want to automate this (DTS package? TSQL stored procedure job?) to run every night at midnight. Is the DTS Wizard the best way, that's what I did, but have not confirmed that it is writing a new text file every day, and does each new version write over the old one?

Is there a better way to do this?
We've all seen this, where it uses an individual .write statement for each column.
Code Snippet
Public Overrides Sub AWCCogent_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As AWCCogentBuffer)
With textWriter
Dim item As Object
If Not Row.AddressID_IsNull Then
.Write(Row.AddressID)
End If
.Write(columnDelimiter)
If Not Row.City_IsNull Then
.Write(Row.City)
End If
.WriteLine()
End With
End Sub
But hard coding this seems not the smartest way. Especially since in my text file, there needs to be close to 100 columns. This could be a nightmare to update down the road. But I can't seem to find the object collection to loop through, like row.items which would seem to be logical.
There's gotta be a better way, right Microsoft?

I have created a trigger to call a program that is written by our program. The program is basically read the record in the table and write to a text file, then delete the record from the table.
The trigger is a after insert trigger. After we added the trigger, we insert a record to the table. The result is that the record still and did not get deleted. Also, the text file didn't get created either. It seems that it take a long time for the record to be written to the table.
But if we just run the program (a exe file), it can write a text file in the folder and delete the record. the trigger is basically:
USE [Zinter]
GO
/****** Object: Trigger [dbo].[ZinterProcess] Script Date: 04/29/2014 18:34:56 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
[Code] ....

Hi,
I tried to backup the master key by the following syntax :
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'c: empmaster' ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
but it failed and i got the following message:
Cannot write into file 'c: empmaster'. Verify that you have write permissions, that the file path is valid, and that the file does not already exist.
NB: I am using the "sa" user to execute this command.
I know that we have a security permission issue , but where and how ?

Hi all,
I want to write a stored procedure for the following,
The table have the following field,
CategoryID, CategoryName, Parent_categoryID
123 Kids Dresses 0
321 Kids Boys 123
322 Kids Baby 123
401 Kids Boys school Uniform 321
501 Kids Boys Formals 321
541 Kids Baby school Uniform 322
542 Kids Baby Formals 322
601 Household Textile 0
602 Bathrobe 601
603 Carpet 601
604 Table Cloth 601
From the above example the categoryID acts as a parent_categoryID for some products,
when i pass a categoryID the stored procedure should return all the categoryID which are subcategory to given categoryID,
subcategory may contain some subcategory, so when i give a categoryID it should return all the subcategoryID.
For example when i pass categoryID as 123 it should return the following subcategoryIDs
321,322,401,501,541,542 because these are all subcategory of categoryID 123.
How to write stored procedure for this?
Thanks!

Hai friends,
The project i'm working on is an asp.net project with SQL Server 2000 as the database tool.
I've a listbox (multiline selection) in my form, whose selected values will be concatenated and sent to the server as comma separated numbers (Fro ex: 34,67,23,60).Also, the column in the table at the back end contains comma separated numbers (For ex: 1,3,7,34,23).
What i need to do is -
1. Select the rows in the table where the latter example has atleast one value of the former example (In the above ex: 34 and 23).
2. Check the text value of these numbers in another table (master table) and populate the text value of these numbers in a comma separated format in a grid in the front end.
I've programmed a procedure for this. but it takes more than 2 minutes to return the result. Also the table has over 20,000 rows and performance should be kept in mind.
Suggessions on using the front-end (asp.net 2.0) concepts would also be a good help.
Anybody's helping thought would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks lot...
