Alter Table Causing Problems In Stored Procedure
Jun 26, 2001
I'm running SQL server 2000 sp1. I created a stored procedure that (1) drops a table, (2) recreates it with a "select into" statement, (3) alters the table by adding a field, and then (4) updates that field.
The trouble I'm having is that when I execute the stored procedure I get an error stating that I have an "invalid column name" between steps (2) and (3). It seems as though when I drop the table in step (1), the entire procedure wants to re-compile and it can't get past step (4) because the table hasn't been altered yet.
I've noticed a similar problem in editing stored procedures when they refer to tables or fields that don't exist yet because WITHIN the procedure they are created/modified. I'm not able to get a successful syntax check and therefore not able to save my work.
I must be missing something. Any suggestions?

The stored procedure has the dependency on the table that was altered.

Hi everybody, I am having trouble how to fixed this code. I am trying to supply the parameterinside a stored procedure with a value, and displays error message shown below. If I did not supply the parameter with a value, it works. How to fix this?Error Message:Procedure or function <stored proc name> has too many arguments specified.Thanks,den2005
Stored procedure:
Alter PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_GetIdeaByCategory]
@CatId <span class="kwd">int</span> = 0
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
Select I.*, C.*, U.* From Idea I inner join IdeaCategory C on I.CategoryID = C.IdeaCategoryID inner join Users U on I.UserID = U.UserID Where I.CategoryID = @CatId Order By LastModifiedDate Desc
End
oDataSource.ConnectionString = constr;
oDataSource.SelectCommand = storedProc;<span class="cmt">//storedproc - sp_GetIdeaByCategory</span>
oDataSource.SelectCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedure;
oDataSource.SelectParameters.Add(<span class="st">"@CatId"</span>, catId);

Hey guys, has anyone ever seen this happen:
Try to move stored proc from one DB to another using DTS, errors on create proc. Create proc manually.
Three tables referenced by that stored proc have been dropped and re-created with the same table structure.
I'm not 100% certain that it happened at exactly the same time, but it seems to be around the same time. Any ideas? Anyone seen this happen before?

We have around 5 SP’s which are inserting data into Table A,and these will run in parallel.From the temp tables in the SP,data will be loaded to Table A. We are getting deadlock here.No Begin and End Transaction used in the stored procedure.
What could be done to avoid deadlock.

I've got a weird one here. I'm running a DTS package on SQL Server2005. It copies a bunch of stored procedures. I renamed them on theoriginating server and ran the DTS again.The came over with the old name and code!I deleted the DTS and built it from scratch, and the same thinghappened.I ran SELECT * FROM sys.objects where type = 'P' on the source serverand the names were correctI'm explicitly checking which sp to copy rather than using Copy all. Ican see the sp namesI've deleted and recreated the sp on the source server using scriptsI've checked the source server nameI've Refreshed everywhereNothing worksWhy is up_Department_GetAllBySchool trying to be be pulled over whenit doesn't exist?Why is up_Department_GetBySchool not being pulled over when it doesexist?I've heard that SQL 2005 pre-SP2 has a problem where renaming anobject that has a text definition (like sprocs, functions, triggers,views) doesn't update the definition. So if you pull that objectdefinition and run it into your new database, it will use the originalscript, which has the original name.I ransp_helptext 'up_Department_GetBySchool'and checked the CREATE statement at the top. Sure enough, it had theold textI asked our NetAdmin to install SP2 on our server. Then I ransp_refreshsqlmodule 'up_Department_GetForSchool'and got this error:Invalid object name 'up_Department_GetAllForSchool'.So even the code which was supposed to fix it, doesn't. Has anyoneelse had this problem, and managed to fix it?--John Hunter

I'm trying to simply change a column definition from Null to Not Null. It'sa multi million row table. I've already checked to make sure there are nonulls for any rows and a default has been created for the column. My log isset to autogrow and as the alter column colname char(6) Not Null runs thelog begins to grow. If I use no check BOL say the optimizer won't considerthe change. How can I change the nullability of a column that currentlycontains no nulls without using up extreme amounts of log space?Danny

Hi all,
I use SQL2005 and I recently noticed this...
When I right click a stored procedure and select modify I get something like this
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[xxxxxx]') AND type in (N'P', N'PC'))
BEGIN
EXEC dbo.sp_executesql @statement = N'
xxx xxx xxx'
instead of the usual alter procedure...
I think that this happened after I installed SP2 (which I cannot remove)
Why this is happening and how can I revert it to the old way of altering stored procs?

I have looked all around and I am having no luck trying to figure out how to alter a stored procedure within an asp.net application.Here is a short snippet of my code, but it keeps erroring out on me.Try myCommand.CommandText = "Using " & DatabaseName & vbNewLine & Me.txtStoredProcedures.Text myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() myTran.Commit()Catch ex As Exception myTran.Rollback() Response.Write(ex.ToString())End Try The reason for this is because I have to propagate stored procedures across many databases and was hoping to write an application for it.Basically the database name is coming from a loop statement and I just want to keep on going through all the databases that I have chosen and have the stored procedure updated (altered) automatically So i thought the code above was close, but it keeps catching on me. Anybody's help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Can the ALTER USER statement be used (without a hack like using EXEC) in a stored procedure? I know that the sp_password system stored procedure can not be. Additionally, it is being deprecated anyway. I guess what is boggling me about my attempts so far relate to the errors I am getting due to the user being specified not being in quotes in the syntax. All of the searching I have done so far have come up lame so far; the only examples I have found about it were in scripts that create other scripts for transferring users and other administrative tasks that would be run from the query window, but not from an application. To be complete as possible, here is an example of a script the returns errors:
ALTER PROC [dbo].[lbxChangePassword]
(
@loginid nvarchar(180),
@oldpassword nvarchar(40),
@newpassword nvarchar(40)
) AS BEGIN
IF @oldpassword = (SELECT password FROM contacts WHERE loginid = @loginid)
BEGIN
BEGIN TRANSACTION
UPDATE contacts
SET password = @newpassword
WHERE loginid = @loginid
ALTER LOGIN @loginid WITH PASSWORD=@newpassword OLD_PASSWORD=@oldpassword
END
ELSE
BEGIN
RAISERROR(N'The password you entered does not match your current password.', 16, 1)
RETURN
END
IF @@ERROR <> 0
BEGIN
RAISERROR(N'There was an error creating your new password.', 16, 1)
RETURN
END
COMMIT TRANSACTION
END
************
This returns:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure lbxChangePassword, Line 15
Incorrect syntax near '@loginid'.
Msg 319, Level 15, State 1, Procedure lbxChangePassword, Line 15
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression or an xmlnamespaces clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
************
If ALTER LOGIN isn't how to change the password, then please tell me what the correct practice of changing a password is. I want to use the CURRENT_USER keyword in my queries and want I can't finish setting that up until I have this resolved because users will need to change their own passwords through the application I am developing.

I want that I will allow a user only to select data from any object and only to alter an existing stored procedure or view. That user can not drop and create any stored procedure and view.
I can assign that user db_datareader role, grant view definition but if I grant alter permission, that user can create, alter and drop any stored procedure and view.

I am trying to move data from one table to the another (staging to real time) in a stored procedure.
There are no indexes or primary keys on the target table and it is still taking ages to execute it (30 minutes approx.). There are no defaults, no constraints as well. There is one identity int column though.
There are some 500000 odd rows in the target table.
I am using the

Keep in mind this is my first compiled SQL program Stored Procedure(SP), copied from a book by Frasier Visual C++.NET in Visual Studio2005 (Chap12). So far, so theory, except for one bug (feature?)below. At some point I'm sure I'll be able to laugh about this, akinto forgeting a semi-colon in C/C++, but right now it's frustrating(time to sleep on it for a while).Problem--For some reason I get the error when trying to save files where twotables (called Author and Content), linked by a single key, form arelationship.By simple comparison of the source code in the textbook and my program(below) I found the difference: instead of, like in the textbook, theStored Procedure (SP) starting with "CREATE PROCEDURE", it*automatically* is (was somehow) given the name of 'ALTER PROCEDURE'and I cannot change this to "CREATE PROCEDURE" (you get an error in MSVisual Studio 2005 Pro edition of "There is already an object namedXXX in the database", see *|* below). No matter what I do, the SP isalways changed by Visual Studio 2005 to 'ALTER PROCEDURE'!!!(otherwise it simply will not save)Anybody else have this happen? (See below, others have had this happenover the years but it's not clear what the workaround is)Keep in mind this is my first attempt and I have ordered somespecialized books on SQL, but if this is a common problem (and Isuspect it's some sort of bug or quirk in VS2005), please let me know.Frankly I think SQL as done by VS2005 is messed up.Here are two Usenet threads on this problem:(1) http://tinyurl.com/2o956m or,http://groups.google.com/group/micr...1454182ae77d409(2) http://tinyurl.com/2ovybv or,http://groups.google.com/group/micr...9e5428bf0525889The second thread implies this is a bug--any fix?Also this bug might be relate to the fact I've switched (and notrebooted) from Administrator to PowerUser after successfully changingthe permissions in the SQL Server Management Studio Express (see thisthread: http://tinyurl.com/2o5yqa )Regarding this problem I might try again tommorrow to see if rebootinghelps.BTW, in the event I can't get this to work, what other SQL editor/compiler should I use besides MS Visual Studio 2005 for ADO.NET andSQL dB development?RL// source files// error message:'Authors' table saved successfully'Content' table- Unable to create relationship 'FK_Content_Authors'.The ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint"FK_Content_Authors".

Hello to all!
I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...
Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanx,
Ziga

I have a table with call data (ContactID, Queues Entered, Call Status, Date & Time Stamps etc). Each entry relating to a contact ID goes onto a new row. The first row for a contact is the date and time it is created. It then captures the queue (or queues) it enters before it is answered. Finally, it captures when the call is released (Completed).
I'm trying to link all this data into one single row per contact ID to make it easier to report on.
I started off by using DISTINCT to pull back all of the Contact ID's. I then used a Left Join to pull back the date and time of creation. I created a further Left Join to pull back the first queue that it entered and so on.
When I did this, I started getting duplicates. This is because some calls enter more than one queue.
How can I do this so that it only has one ContactID per row. Also, for the Queue, is there anything I can do to ensure it pulls back the first Queue it enters? (These are time stamped). Subsequently, I would then need to add the second and third queue it enters in other columns. (A call can enter a maximum of 3 queues).

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
declare @tTable(col1 int)
insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.

Here is the scenario,
I have 2 stored procedures, SP1 and SP2
SP1 has the following code:
declare @tmp as varchar(300)
set @tmp = 'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET ( ''SQLOLEDB'', ''SERVER=.;Trusted_Connection=yes'',
''SET FMTONLY OFF EXEC ' + db_name() + '..StoredProcedure'' )'
EXEC (@tmp)
SP2 has the following code:
SELECT *
FROM SP1 (which won't work because SP1 is a stored procedure. A view, a table valued function, or a temporary table must be used for this)
Views - can't use a view because they don't allow dynamic sql and the db_name() in the OPENROWSET function must be used.
Temp Tables - can't use these because it would cause a large hit on system performance due to the frequency SP2 and others like it will be used.
Functions - My last resort is to use a table valued function as shown:
FUNCTION MyFunction
( )
RETURNS @retTable
(
@Field1 int,
@Field2 varchar(50)
)
AS
BEGIN
-- the problem here is that I need to call SP1 and assign it's resulting data into the
-- @retTable variable
-- this statement is incorrect, but it's meaning is my goal
INSERT @retTableSELECT *FROM SP1
RETURN

All fields are of Integer Type.
I need to write a stored procedure in sql 2000 which works as follows:
Select all the NewID and OldID from the Category Table
(SELECT NewID,OldID FROM Category)
Then for each rows fetched from last query, execute a update query in the Link table.
For Example,
Let @NID be the NewID for each rows and @OID be the OldID for each rows.
Then the query for each row should be..
UPDATE Link SET CategoryID=@CID WHERE CategoryID=@OID
