Escaping Single Quote In Stored Proc With Parameter..
Feb 26, 2008
We have a .NET drop down, which gets populated as the user types in letters(last name). If the user types in the single quote we get the error about not escaping the single quote. Question is, which way would it be easier to fix, in the .NET code or in the SQL procedure? I am not to sure if we have full access to the source code since that is a 3rd party control, so if that is not feasible how would I fix that in the stored procedure? This is the current proc that we are using:
Code Snippet
select @str = 'SELECT DISTINCT TOP ' + @Top + ' e.DisplayName
as DbComboText,
e.EmployeeID as DbComboValue
FROM DepartmentDirectory.dbo.Employees ee
INNER JOIN DataMart.dbo.Employees e ON ee.UIN = e.UIN
WHERE e.LastName like ''' + @LastName + ''' AND e.FirstName like ''' + @FirstName + '''
ORDER BY e.DisplayName'
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to create a Character string so that I can execute dynamic SQL.
The date is going to change.
DECLARE @Select VARCHAR (50)
DECLARE @SQLQuery VARCHAR (500)
DECLARE @PreSelect CHAR (1)
DECLARE @CurrentDate Date
SET @SQLQuery = 'SELECT CAST(CAE_RDB_ENTRY_DATE as Date), *
FROM OPENQUERY(LS_RDB_DWH,'
SET @PreSelect = '''
SELECT @Preselect AS PreSelect
If I try this statement which what I really want. I would like to include the Quote with the Select.:
SET @Select = ''SELECT * FROM RDB_DWH_ASSOCIATE_ENTITY WHERE CAE_RDB_ENTRY_DATE >''
I get the following error:
Invalid object name 'RDB_DWH_ASSOCIATE_ENTITY'.

Hi,
I have used several sql queris to generate a report. This queries pull out data from different tables. But sometimes at the same table too.
Basically those are SELECT statements.
I have created stored proc for each SELECT statement. now I'm wondering can I include all SELECT statements in one stored proc and run the report.
If possible, can anyone show me the format?
Thanks

I ran a large query and exported it to xls. In Excel, I noticed a value of '2.00E+01'. I formatted the Excel cell and then got a value of '20'. I searched for the record in SQL Server 2008, ya I know, ancient. The value is '2E1' which excel is seeing as scientific notation.
Can I use a case statement that when an 'E' is present to add a single prefix quote like '2E1? Or perhaps do it for the whole column? Or put put double quotes around the whole field?

Hi,
I'm having problems with a stored procedure, that i'm hoping someone can help me with.
I have a table with 2 columns - Username (varchar), LastAllocation (datetime)
The Username column will always have values, LastAllocation may have NULL values. Example
Username | LastAllocation
------------------------
Greg | 02 October 2005 15:30
John | 02 October 2005 18:00
Mike | <NULL>
My stored procedure needs to pull back a user name with the following criteria:
If any <NULL> dates send username of first person where date is null, sorted alphabetically, otherwise send username of person with earliest date from LastAllocation
Then update the LastAllocation column with GETDate() for that username.
This SP will be called repeatedly, so all users will eventually have a date, then will be cycled through from earliest date. I wrote an SP to do this, but it seems to be killing my server - the sp works, but I then can't view the values in the table in Enterprise Manager. SP is below - can anyone see what could be causing the problem, or have a better soln?
Thanks
Greg

I am using SQL Server 2005, I have a NVarChar parameter called @Text that I use to build a dynamic Where clause for my SELECT Statement.
SET @l_Where = @l_Where + N' AND (StatusDesc LIKE ''' + Replace(@Text, "'", "''") + N'%'')'
This gives me an invalid column error.
How do I replace the single quotes in @Text with 2 Single Quotes?

I have 2 SQL 6.5 databases on separate servers. Server A replicates a text field into a table on server B.
On server A the field contains text similar to THIS IS FRED'S HOUSE. After replication to Server B it looks like THIS IS FRED''S HOUSE. The distribution database also has it as THIS IS FRED''S HOUSE. Using ODBC trace I cannot see the value being passed in the text field as it is displayed as a question mark e.g. ?.
How do I fix the problem ?
Thanks

Hi everyone -
Here is the setup -
new install, same old software
only difference is the machine name has
a single quote (apostrophy) in the name...
xyz's
Now - a portion of the application is failing -
the starting of the application runs ok,
and the system is indeed seeing the database
(it allowed the user to log in)
so the connection string seems to be ok - just in that
one part...
does anyone know if the machine name with an embedded
apostrophy will cause the ADO connection string to puke???
vb6
MSDE
thanks

Hi,
i am trying to add a single quote to a string. This is a must because i am making a full select statement in which i need the single quote to compare values. Obviously this breaks my string invalidating my query.
ej:
SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value) as valor, FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) as tiempo
FROM TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916AI31_43 tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2
WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = 'Alimentacion Digestores' and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time
group by FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))
and this will become something like this.
SELECT @TableName = 'TESTLAB5.dbo.'+@TableName
SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value), FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) FROM '
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @TableName
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = '@NombreVar'and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' group by FLOOR(Cast(ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))'
the @NombreVar is the equivalence of 'Alimentacion Digestores'.
is there something i can add or change to make it work ?

Hi Guys,
I have a problem with one of my apps. The apps was written long long time ago in C++ and uses SQL server 7
The problem is that when the users key in some data with single quote in it the query failed, obviously. Is there any way that SQL Server automaticaly manages this kind of Insert/Update statements ?
Thanks & Best Regards,

I'm inserting a row of people's names and addresses to a table. This seems to work great, unless the person has ' in their name, for example O' Riordan. When the address has single quote (such as Wilder's Path), I'd get the same error, unclosed quote when inserting the row.
What would be the best way to work around this, other than read the line and replace it with a space.

Recently someone told me that I could use a Parameter in a Stored Proc as a text placeholder in the SQL Statement. I needed to update a table by looping thru a set of source tables. I thought NOW IS MY TIME to try using a parameter as a table name. Check the following Stored Proc
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Update]
@DistributorID int,
@TableName varchar(50)
AS
UPDATE C
SET C.UnitCost = T.[Price]
FROM (tbl_Catalog C INNER JOIN @TableName T ON C.Code = T.Code)
GO
NEEDLESS TO SAY this didn't work. In reviewing my references this seems to be a no no.
Is it possible to use a parameter as a table name? OR is there another way to do this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi!
I'm trying to execute a SP on a SQL Server 2000, using Delphi 2007 (win32) and DBExpress components.
Work on my computer. Don't work on computers without the delphi instaled.
its not a problem with DLLs. All the Necessary DLL are there (and I think that if one was missing, the windows will call for it hauauh)
Midas.dll is inside the apllication and he driver for the SQL Server is there too.
I don't know if this is the corect place to put my problem... But don't can think of other place...
The SP has this:
Code Snippet
IF EXISTS
(
SELECT *
FROM dbo.sysobjects
WHERE id = object_id(N'[dbo].[ms_TESTE]')
AND
OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsProcedure') = 1
)
DROP PROCEDURE [dbo].[ms_TESTE]
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE ms_TESTE
(
@Id varchar(12),
@Nome varchar(500)
)
AS
SELECT *
FROM wtDocAM
WHERE
convert(nvarchar(12), idDOcAM) LIKE @Id
and
nom LIKE @Nome
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
I assure that I'm passing both the parameters.
One test was with 8% for the @Id and %a% for Nome.
Anyone have experienced this error?
I´d like to hear a solution if anyone can help me
Thanks in advance!

I have difficulty reading back the value of an output parameter that I use in a stored procedure. I searched through other posts and found that this is quite a common problem but couldn't find an answer to it. Maybe now there is a knowledgeable person who could help out many people with a good answer.The problem is that cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Value evaluates to null. If I call the stored procedure externally from the Server Management Studio Express everything works fine.Here is my code:using (SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(this.ConnectionString))
{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("mys_ExistsPersonWithUserName", cn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = userName;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserExists", SqlDbType.Int);
cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
cn.Open();
int x = (int)cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Value;
cn.Close();
return (x>1);
} And the corresponding stored procedure: ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.mys_Spieler_ExistsPersonWithUserName
(
@UserName varchar(16),
@UserExists int OUTPUT
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT @UserExists = count(*)
FROM mys_Profiles
WHERE UserName = @UserName
RETURN

Hi Guys
I am wondering if you could spare some time and help me out with this puzzle.
I am new to this stuff so please take it easy on me.
I’m trying to create procedure which will take 2 input parameters and give me 1 back.
Originally there will be more outputs but for this training exercise 1 should do.
There are 2 tables as per diagram below and what I’m trying to do is
Verify username & password and pull out user group_name.
|---------------| |-----------------------|
| TBL_USERS | |TBL_USER_GROUPS|
|---------------| |-----------------------|
| USERNAME | /|GROUP_ID |
| PASSWORD | / |GROUP_NAME |
| GROUP_ID |< | |
|---------------| |-----------------------|
For my proc. I am using some ideas from this and some other sites, but obviously i've done something wrong.
'====================================================
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.try01
(
@UserName varchar(50),
@Password varchar(50),
@Group varchar Output
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT TBL_USERS.USERNAME, TBL_USERS.PASSWORD,@Group = TBL_USER_GROUPS.GROUP_NAME,
TBL_USERS.USER_ID, TBL_USER_GROUPS.GROUP_ID
FROM TBL_USERS INNER JOIN TBL_USER_GROUPS
ON TBL_USERS.GROUP_ID = TBL_USER_GROUPS.GROUP_ID
WHERE (TBL_USERS.USERNAME = @UserName)
AND (TBL_USERS.PASSWORD = @Password)
'====================================================
and this is what i'm getting in VS.Net while trying to save.
'====================================================
ADO error: A select statement that assigns a value to variable must
not be combined with data-retrieval operation.
'====================================================
I did not see any samples on the net using ‘varchar’ as OUTPUT usually they where all ‘int’s. Could that be the problem?
Please help.

I was comparing the parameters for two stored procs that I made using the SQL Server 2005 express management studio. Both of these sprocs only inserted one field into a single table. These were both of the type varchar.
One of the sprocs had "nocount on" and the other did not. I thought I would see the returns integer parameter in the sproc that did not have "nocount" set to on. I thought this is what returns an integer to validate an insert. Obviously, I am confused about how this works.
Can anyone help me to understand that difference between nocount on and the parameter that returns an integer.
Any help is appreciated.
