Hi All !
Is it possible to get rid of these dash symbols which are underlining
the column name when recordset is returned after query execution ?
For example, using isql.exe:
SELECT 'blah'
go
produces the following results:
----
blah
What I want to achieve is just
blah
I know that SET NOCOUNT ON switches the "X row affected" thing. But
how about column headers ?
Thanks for your time,

I have a dynamic database that will be periodically queried to selectthe data from a blob field. This blob data field is text of a variablelength. The data will be selected using an id field and a date range.There will be multiple blob fields returned that I would like to outputinto a txt file in a local folder.I have the blob fields showing up as text in the field and not areferring link. Can someone point me to an output to text solution?Thanks
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a very simple stored procedure that returns a list of employees. The procedure works fine. However, sometimes there is no records returned. In that case, I'd like to like the procedure to return a single record with predetermined values. I've added the YELLOW portion of the code to my existing proc to reflects the logic of what I am trying to accomplish.
CREATE PROC proc_Emp
@Sel_Country
AS
BEGIN
SELECT DISTINCT employee, hrid
FROM emp_table
WHERE country = @Sel_Country
@SEND_RESULTS =
CASE WHEN row_count = 0 THEN
SELECT 'No Country', 4444444444
ELSE
(send original results)
END
END
I need to:
Query for the employee list
If the row count is zero/null then return fixed values
Else return the orginal data from Step 1.
I'm guessing I need to use the OUTPUT command and configure some variables. But I'm not having much luck decoding BOL and I've not found any similar submissions to the forum.

Hi all,
I have a several stored procedures that they are designed to do Update and Insert tasks and all of them after finishing the task will return the Inserted or Updated row.
The problem is sometime I would need to call the stored procedure inside other ones and somehow i need to stop the inner stored procedures from producing resultsets. I don't find any SET options in SQL documentation which could control this behavior and block resultsets from being sent to the client.
Is there any way i could do this?
Exmaple:
In following example as a result of dbo.AddressInsert being called within dbo.CustomerInsert, two resultsets are returned to the client!
Procedure dbo.AddressInsert(....)
as
BEGIN
Insert INTO Adress ....
SELECT * FROM AdressView WHERE AddressID = @@identity
END
Procedure dbo.CustomerInsert(...)
as
begin
-- transcation begin...
EXEC dbo.AddressInsert
INSERT INTO Customer....
-- end transcation
SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE CustomerID = @@identity
end
Hi,
we have job that execute SSIS (s) using dtexec and save output(s) to file
Output of SSIS is 4 page long full of entries like
Validating: 0% ..ProgressProgress: .. Prepare for Execute: 100%
1. Can I limit output to show only success or failure ?
2. Can I redirect output of dtexec to be saved in msdb insted of showing after execution.
Thank you

hi, like, if i need to do delete some items with the id = 10000 then also need to update on the remaining items on the with the same idthen i will need to go through all the records to fetch the items with the same id right? so, is there something that i can use to hold those records so that i can do the delete and update just on those records and don't need to query twice? or is there a way to do that in one go ?thanks in advance!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been testing our SQL Mail setup in SQL Server 2000 (sp3a) andhave found that when I attach results as a file, every other characteris a control character which causes each real character output on aseparate line. I have no idea why this is happenening, I've never seenit before.The code looks like this;EXEC master.dbo.xp_sendmail@recipients = '<email address>',@dbuse = 'TestDB',@query = 'select top 50 descr from AdTable',@message = 'nathan email test',@subject='SQL Mail test',@attach_results = 'true',@width = 100,@separator = ','The results look like this! -descr-----etc.When I view the result text file with an advanced text editor I cansee that every other character is a control - these characters are notin the data, I have already checked this, so it looks like its theyare being created by SQL Server or the mail system? Any advice muchappreciated.Nathan
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to take the output of the Render method and bind it to the ReportViewer control. First of all, is this possible? If so, what is the best way to render the report (format: XML,CSV, NULL, etc), and then how to I 'bind' the result to the control?
I'm proving some code to demonstrate how I'm rendering the report:
...
string format = "XML";
string devInfo = @"<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>";
ReportExecutionService rs = new ReportExecutionService();
ExecutionInfo execInfo = new ExecutionInfo();
ExecutionHeader execHeader = new ExecutionHeader();

rs.ExecutionHeaderValue = execHeader;
execInfo = rs.LoadReport(path, null);
string SessionId = rs.ExecutionHeaderValue.ExecutionID;
result = rs.Render(format, devInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);
Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated.

We are experiencing a problem where a server report is rendered in the
ReportViewer control successfully but when the user chooses to print the
content, the print output is incomplete (ex. only 18 of 23 pages are printed,
etc.).
This is happening consistently and has been reproduced for multiple
different reports. It does not happen if the same report is printed via the
Report Manager web interface.
I have also found that if I switch to Print Layout mode and then initiate
the print from the ReportViewer that the problem does not occur. This is our
current workaround, but it would be nice to know what is causing this and
have it fixed.
Has anybody else seen this? Is this a known issue with my current version
(SQLRS 2005 with SP1 applied).
Thanx in advance.
What would be the correct synatx if I wanted to output the results of a stored to a file
instead of printing?
Hi,
I was wondering is there was is a way in SQL 2005 to not only email job completion notifications but also include the output of a step (e.g. TSQL step) within the email. I was able to accomplish this in the past with SQL 2000 by writing output to a file and then adding an extra CMDEXEC step that exectuted BLAT (CLI SMTP engine) that sent the contents of the output file as email body out of band. Although this worked and I can do the same with 2005 it is not very elegant and I was wondering if 2005 version might have something built-in.
Any thoughts?
Thank you,

I am able to perform my Stored Procedure, but I can't figure out how to get access to the OUTPUT parameters!Here is my code: Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

mySqlDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedure
mySqlDataSource.ConnectionString = "my connection string"
mySqlDataSource.InsertCommand = "MyStoredProc"
mySqlDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("someId", TypeCode.Int16, 166)
mySqlDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("someNumber", TypeCode.Int16, 4)
' Add Some Parameter

someParameter.DefaultValue = New String("Some Value")
someParameter.Direction = Data.ParameterDirection.Output
mySqlDataSource.InsertParameters.Add(someParameter)
mySqlDataSource.Insert()
End Sub
Any ideas as to how I get the new value that was "hopefully" assigned to someParameter??? Thanks for any help
Hello, I have been working around this issue, but couldn't yet find any solution.I have a stored procedure that calls a method to do a certain repetitive work.In this function, I have a dynamic query, which means, that I am concatinating commands to the query depending on the input of the function.for example, there is an input for a function called "Id"Inside the function, if Id = 111I need to add " and ID <> 1" and if Id has another value I need to add " and ID = c.ID" something like that.Now, inside the function, I need to return a value by executing the above @SQLString as follows:EXEC @SQLStringWhen I need is something likeEXEC @SQLString, @Total OutputReturn (@Total)Are there any ideas ?regards

I have a stored procedure that outputs an XML result. As it is right now, I will periodically go into SQL Server Mngmnt Studio and run the procedure, then save the XML output to an XML file that my website uses. The procedure takes too long run (it is recursive through the entire data set) to have the website call the procedure on its own, and wait for the results.
My question is this: Can I create a trigger that will run this stored procedure and save the results to a file? Is that possible? The trigger would call the procedure any time a specific table is updated (which will be a rare occurrence), then save the file to the path provided so the website users could always have the most up-to-date information without having long wait times caused by long waits for the procedure to run.
Any advice on how best to accomplish this will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I am rewriting several stored procedures that originally had lots of "multiplicated" code. I am aware that references to objects within dynamic SQL do not create dependencies, so I intend to add code that will generate the dependencies but will NOT produce any output in both the Results and Messages tabs, not be overly "messy" or complicated, and have the least impact on execution plan creation as possible.
As we use a dependency list of tables used to our support staff pinpoint possible data issues associated with each of these stored procedures.
I have tried a few methods already, including this:
SET @SQL = N'SELECT Column1,Column2 FROM dbo.TableName';
...
/***************************************************************************************/
/* This code block is only to establish dependency of objects used within dynamic SQL. */
/* */
/* SET statements are used so that no output is produced in Results or Messages tabs. */
/* Object existence check avoids error 208, "Invalid object name" message. */
/***************************************************************************************/
DECLARE @DependentObject SQL_VARIANT;
IF OBJECT_ID(N'dbo.TableName', N'U') IS NOT NULL
SET @DependentObject = ( SELECT TOP (1) Column1,Column2 FROM dbo.TableName);
/* End code for dependency of objects used within dynamic SQL */
I have the following code below where I need to have all of the query results output into a .csv file to use in a VBA macro. The issue I am running into is that the data is not deliminating correctly and my rows are being shifted incorrectly. Any better way of out putting the results into a .csv file with a common delimiter.
-- Declare the variables
DECLARE @CMD VARCHAR(4000),
@DelCMD VARCHAR(4000),
@HEADERCMD VARCHAR(4000),
@Combine VARCHAR(4000),
@Path VARCHAR(4000),
@COLUMNS VARCHAR(4000)
[Code] ...
Output from query (please post in a text editor. The line starting with (only ) should be on line 1 after 20 pks and is shifted to a new line.):
557898^1^9885E25^80082^9.0 CM GLASS FIBER PADS 20PKS

I can create 1 view of a database then use that views results to query
but i want do this with a stored procedure
pass some data to it, so it selects some data
query the results it created and output this data.
ie
pass 2 values to the procedure
(
@FirstValue int,
@secondValue int output
)
select from a database with the firstpassed value
Select *
From TableName
Where ID = @FirstValue
Then
using the results from the above select
Select *
From theResultsOfAbove
Where ID = @SecondValue
any ideas would be fabo !
If I use msdb..sp_send_dbmail or save query results as text (using sqlcmd) and include the column headers I get the dashed separator line.

custID, name

sqlcmd -E -S (local) -d myDB -W -w 1024 -s "," -i "SELECT * FROM tblCust" | findstr /V /C:- /B > C: emp.csv
Can the same result be achieved sending as attachment with dbmail?
EXEC msdb..sp_send_dbmail @attach_query_result_as_file = 1I don't want to have to add column names as part of the query
Change the query to return column headers in resultset
SELECT 'CustID' as f1, 'name' as f2
UNION ALL
SELECT CAST(CustID as Varchar(10)), name FROM tblCustand set
msdb..sp_send_dbmail @query_result_header = 0
I have been given a request at work that requires us to run the SQL scripts that are held in a report configuration table and output the results as .csv or.xls files in a desired folder with a file name that is also specified within the report config table.
An example of the table is as per script below with column A being the desired file name to be created and Column B contains the script that will be executed.
Ideally I require a script that i can drop into a Stored Proc that will run down each row in the table and export and create each rows results as a separate file in a desired folder.
