EXEC Statement
Aug 1, 2007Hi, I am facing a problem here. I am trying to make a stored procedure which accepts an input. The input is a table name within the database. The procedure itself then will make an after update trigger for the table. The purpose of making this stored procedure is because the table keeps changing (columns can be added or deleted) and I don't want to make the trigger manually everytime the table changes, instead I want to execute the stored procedure by passing the table's name and the procedure will create the trigger for me. The problem is sql server 2005 has limited the length of any variable to 8000. The create trigger statement can be longer than that. So using a variable to store the create trigger statement and then executing that variable is not an option. That is why I have inserted the statement to be executed into a column in a temp table. Now how do I execute that statement? I have tried this:
EXEC(SELECT QRY FROM temp_Update)
Qry is the column name which holds the create trigger statement. temp_Update is the temporary table. But if I run it, it will give this error:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 123Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'SELECT'.Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 123Incorrect syntax near ')'.
Can anybody tell me how to execute a query which is place in a column in a table? If we can't do this, then what is the workaround, maybe how to have a variable that can hold more than 8000 characters? Any suggestion is greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Stored Procedure Exec An SQL Statement
Oct 2, 2007I have this code in a stored procedure: DECLARE @SQLString VarChar(200)
SET @SQLString = 'SELECT ' + @LookupField + ' FROM ' + @DBTable + ' WHERE (' + @IDField + ' = ''' + @IDValue + ''')'
Exec (@SQLString)
it works fine - with just one issue - I must grant select permission on the table.
Is there a way to do this WITHOUT granting the select permissions?
SProc - Ad Hoc Sql Statement With COUNT For Exec(@SQL) ??
May 14, 2001Hello,
I need to get the count into a local variable:
Select @SQL = 'Select ' + @TotalRowCount + ' = Count(*) )' + ' From ' + @TableName + ' Where ' + @WhereClause
Exec(@SQL)
It complains about ‘…. Integer…’, but even if I use a varchar parm and convert Count to varchar in the sql statement, it still does not work. It does not like the = , or so it says.
Any help greatly appreciated,
Judith

Openrowset With Parameter In Exec Statement?

Is it possible to call proc with parameter in openrowset?:
declare @str varchar(100);
select @str = 'EXEC SP_HELPTEXT ''createReport''';
select * from
OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI','Server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=yes;', @str)
AS a;
Incorrect syntax near '@str'.
------------------
select * from
OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI','Server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=yes;', 'EXEC
SP_HELPTEXT ''createReport''') AS a;
Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot process the object "EXEC SP_HELPTEXT 'createReport'". The OLE

the object has no columns or the current user does not have
permissions on that object.

Trigger With Exec Statement Blocking Execution Of Triggering Cmd?
Jul 20, 2005I have a trigger on a table. I am trying to dynamically log thechanged fields on the table to another table, so I am iteratingthrough the bits in COLUMNS_UPDATED() to find what's changed, andgetting the column name programatically. This is all working fine.If I do a regular insert command in my trigger then everything worksfine. However, since I want to retrieve data from the column namewhich I got programatically from the inserted and deleted tables (toget the old and new values) I wanted to do something like this:insert into auditTransactionLog (TableName,PrimaryKeyId,ColumnName,OldValue, NewValue, ActionType) EXEC( 'SELECT(''cmContactInfo''), I.contactID,'''+ @colname+''', D.'+@colname+',I.'+@colname+', '+@action+' FROM inserted I INNER JOIN Deleted D onI.ContactId = D.ContactId')The presence of this line of code appears to be preventing theupdating of the table with the trigger. Is there some reason why Ican't do the EXEC in the trigger? If I did it without EXEC it worksfine but I have no idea of getting at the D. and I. @colname columnsotherwise.Thanks for any help!Rebecca
View 1 Replies View RelatedCan't TABLE Variable Be Used In EXEC Statement In Stored Procedure
Feb 8, 2008Hi
I've used a temporary table in the stored procedure
I've created it as DECLARE @Temp TABLE (id INT)
in select clause I've used this temp table through the joins..
But I've also used a varchar variable to store my criteria...
which I'm building in the stored procedure
so inorder to use it in the where clause I used
EXEC ('SELECT ....................
FROM @Temp T
LEFT OUTER JOIN ...
LEFT OUTER JOIN ...
WHERE ' + @Criteria )
Unfortunately this is not working.
Giving the errror
Must declare the variable '@TempT'.
I had to use Temporary table using #, which I feel is really waste of memory...
Is there a way by which I can use my Table variable in the EXEC statement.
Thanks In advance
Error While Executing A A Query String Using EXEC Statement
Sep 18, 2007Hi,
I have written a stored proc to bulk insert the data from a data file.
I have a requirement that i need to insert the data into a table of which the name is not known. I mean to say that the table name will be passed as a parameter to the stored proc. And also i need to insert the date that will also be passed as the parameter to the stored proc
The follwing statement works fine if i give the table name directly in the query
Code Snippet
DECLARE @LastUpdate varchar(20)
SET @LastUpdate = 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM'
INSERT INTO Category
SELECT MSISDN, @LastUpdate FROM OPENROWSET( BULK '\remotemachinedatafile.txt',
FORMATFILE = '\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt',
FIRSTROW = 2) AS a
To satisfy my requirement ( i.e passing the table name dynamically , and the date) , i have formed the query string ( exact one as above ) and passing it to EXEC statement. But its failing as explained below
Code Snippet
@Category - Will be passed as a parameter to the stored proc
DECLARE @vsBulkSQL VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @LastUpdate varchar(20)
SET @LastUpdate = 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM'
SELECT @vsBulkSQL ='INSERT INTO '+ @Category + ' SELECT MSISDN, ''' + @LastUpdate +''' FROM OPENROWSET ' + '( BULK ' + '''' + '\remotemachinedatafile.txt'+ ''''+ ' ,' +
+ ' FORMATFILE ' + '=' + ''''+ '\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt'+ ''''+ ',' +
' FIRSTROW ' + '=' + '2' + ')' + ' AS a'
Print @vsBulkSQL - This prints the folliwing statement
INSERT INTO Category SELECT MSISDN, 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM' FROM OPENROWSET ( BULK '\remotemachineDataFile.txt' , FORMATFILE ='\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt', FIRSTROW =2) AS a
Exec @vsBulkSQL - This statement gives the following error
The name 'INSERT INTO Sports SELECT MSISDN, 'Dec 11 2007 1:20AM' FROM OPENROWSET ( BULK '\remotemachineSecond.txt' , FORMATFILE ='\remotemachineFormatFile.fmt', FIRSTROW =2) AS a' is not a valid identifier.
Can any one please point out where am i doing wrong? Or do i need to do anything else to achive the same

Exec SP Many Times, From Select?
Aug 5, 2004Hi All...
if i had the following sp...
*******************************************************
create procedure my_insert (param1 int, param2 int, paramx int)
as
...
complicated insert routine
...
return
*******************************************************
and then i wanted to exec this sp in another procedure i would have
exec my_insert( 1_value, 2_value, 3_value )
My question is how could i exec this will the result set of a select.... something like this
exec my_insert (select 1_value, 2_value, 3_value from another_table).
I know i could have this in an insert result type statement ie...
insert into dest_table (select 1_value, 2_value, 3_value from another_table)
but my insert routine is quite complicated and carries out some other functions so I would like to call (exec) a sp rather than repeating the complication in the select statement
Many Thanks

How Do I Use A @variable To Hold On Value Return From An Exec ('string Command') Statement.
Sep 19, 2000How do I use a @variable to hold on value return from an exec ('string command') statement.
Example for:
declare @OldID int
declare @cmd varchar(255)
declare @db varchar(25)
declare @OldOwner varchar(25)
set @db = 'DBNAME'
set @OldOwner = 'USERNAME'
select @cmd = 'select uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
exec (@cmd)
How can I use @OldID to hold on UID return from this statement.
When I try use:
select @cmd = 'select @OldID = uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
then I'm getting a error message: @OldID not declare.
Thanks.

Need To Pull A Select Few Results From INSERT EXEC
Aug 17, 2006I'd *like* to execute a sProc within another sProc, because this other one (let's call it dataProc) will provide me with results I need that are calculated based off execing other procs within that proc itself.
I'd like to use this data in a new sProc (we'll call it newProc), but I don't need NEARly all of the columns. The dataProc returns 1 row with 42 columns. I need about 4-5 of those for my newProc.
The dataProc does not have any output variables, and I do not want to change the signature, because several pages/apps use this existing dataProc.
My question:
Is there a way to INSERT INTO table EXEC dataProc
*Without* making a temp table that takes in every single column the dataProc puts out?
Any help is much appreciated.. thanks!
Attempt To Return Record Set In INSERT...EXEC Statement From ODBC Source(non MSSQL)

I set MSDTC security options for No Authentification and Allow inbound and Allow outbound, but it's no use.
Have this problem solution? May be, I must use another method to get my data?
P.S. Linked Servers and OPENQUERY is not applicable. Sybase not describe columns in stored proc result set and one stored proc may return different result set by params.
P.S.S. Sorry for bad english.
