Execute Stored Procedure (with Parameters) With An Exec Command
Feb 21, 2004
Hi everybody, I would like to know if it's possible to execute a stored procedure, passing it parameters, using not CommandType.StoredProcedure value of sqlcommand, but CommandType.Text.
I tried to use this:
sqlCmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add(sqlPar)
sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
With this sql command:
"exec sp ..."
I wasn't able to make it to work, and I don't know if it's possible.
Another question:
if it's not possible, how can I pass a Null value to stored procedure?
This code:
sqlPar = new SqlParameter("@id", SqlDbType.Int)
sqlPar.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
cmd.Parameters.Add(sqlPar)
sqlPar = new SqlParameter("@parent_id", DBNull)
cmd.Parameters.Add(sqlPar)
doesn't work, 'cause I get this error:
BC30684: 'DBNull' is a type and cannot be used as an expression.
How can I solve this?
Bye and thanks in advance.
P.S. I would prefer first method to call a stored procedure ('cause I could call it with 'exec sp null' sql command, solving the other problem), but obviusly if it's possible...=)
EXEC sp_insertNewRecord 7, 'Peter', 'Wang', '678 Old St', 'Detroit',

======================================================================= Now, I want to insert a new record into the dbo.Friends table of my shcDB by executing the following T-SQL and Visual Basic 2005 codes that are programmed in a VB2005 Express project "CallshcDBspWithAdoNet": --Form1.vb--
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub InsertNewFriend()
Dim connectionString As String = "Integrated Security-SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;" + _
"Initial Catalog=shcDB;Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
connection.Open()
Try
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_InsertNewRecord", connection)
=========================================================== I ran the above project in VB 2005 Express and I got the following 5 errors: 1. Name 'EXEC' is not declared (in Line 16 of Form1.vb) 2. Method arguments must be enclosed in parentheses (in Line 16 of Form1.vb) 3. Name 'sd-insertNewRecord' is not declared. (in Line 16 of Form1.vb) 4.Comma, ')', or a valid expression continuation expected (in Line 16 of Form1.vb) 5. Expression expected (in Line 16 of Form1.vb) ============================================================ I know that "EXEC sp_insertNewRecord 6, 'Craig', 'Utley', '5577 Baltimore Ave',
'Ellicott City', 'MD', '21045', 'CraigUtley@yahoo.com' "in Line 16 of Form1.vb is grossly in error. But I am new in doing the programming of T-SQL in VB 2005 Express and I am not able to change it.
Please help and advise me how to correct these problems.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.SP_UpdateFixedRev /* ( @parameter1 int = 5, @parameter2 datatype OUTPUT ) */ ( @Number int, @FixedRev money ) AS BEGIN /* SET NOCOUNT ON */ Update Ticket set FixedRev = @FixedRev where Number = @Number; End
Here is my code:
Dim dbConn As New OleDbConnection Dim dbComm As OleDbCommand dbConn.ConnectionString = connStr 'connStr is class-level vrbl dbConn.Open() dbComm = dbConn.CreateCommand dbComm.Parameters.Add("@Number", OleDbType.Integer).Value = txtDatabaseTicketNo.Text dbComm.Parameters.Add("@FixedRev", OleDbType.Currency).Value = txtFixedRev.Text dbComm.CommandText = "SP_UpdateFixedRev" dbComm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure dbComm.ExecuteNonQuery() dbConn.Close()
However its not updating my database when I run the app from a button click event.
I am trying to exectue a stored procedure through execute sql task which takes two input parameters table name and filegroup to create a table and it also returns a value.
i am using the oledb connection
but i am getting the following error
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "declare @rtn_value int exec spm_Utopia_FinanceUsage_Create_MonthlyTable ?,? select @rtn_value as rtn_value " failed with the following error: "Syntax error or access violation". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
i tried with ado.net connection by directly giving the parameter names.
it will create a table but the the table name is something different from what i specified
I have created an SSIS package where I have added an Execute SQL Task to run an existing stored procedure in my SQL database.
General: Result Set: None Connection Type: OLE DB SourceType: Direct Input IsQueryStoredProcedure: False (this is greyed out and cannot be changed) Bypass Prepare: True
When I use the following execute statement where I am "Hard Coding" in the parameters, the stored procedure runs successfully and it places the data into the table per the stored procedure.
However, the @system_cd parameter can change, so I wanted to set these parameters up as variables and use the parameter mapping in the Execute SQL Task.
I have set this up as follows and it runs the package successfully but it does not put the data into the table. The only thing I can figure is either I have the variables set up incorrectly or the parameter mapping set up incorrectly.
Stored procedure variables:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_ml_location_load] (@system_cd nvarchar(10), @location_type_cd nvarchar(10)) AS BEGIN .....................
Here is my set up, what is wrong here:
I Created these Variables:
Name Scope Data Type Value system_cd Locations String '03' location_type_cd Locations String Store
I added these parameter mappings in the Execute SQL Task
Variable Name Direction Data TypeParameter NameParameter Size User::system_cd Input NVARCHAR@system_cd -1 User::location_type_cd Input NVARCHAR@location_type_cd -1
I used this SQLStatement: EXEC dbo.sp_ml_location_load ?,
It runs the package successfully but it does not put the data into the table.

Next, how do I call the stored procedure without doing it RBAR? Is that possible?
Hello, I am hoping there is a solution within SQL that work for this instead of making round trips from the front end. I have a stored procedure that is called from the front-end(USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency) that accepts two parameters and returns one column of data possibly several rows. I have a second stored procedure(USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool) that accepts the previous stored procedures return values. What I would like to do is call the first stored procedure from the front end and return the results from the second stored procedure. Since it's likely I will have more than row of data, can I loop the second passing each value returned from the first? The Stored Procs are: CREATE PROCEDURE USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency @CID int, @CY char(3) AS SELECT Distinct S.BalancePoolName FROM SiteRef S INNER JOIN Account A ON A.PoolId=S.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AB ON A.Id = AB.AccountId Inner JOIN AccountPool AP On AP.Id=A.PoolId Where A.CompanyId=@CID And AB.Currency=@CY
CREATE PROCEDURE USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool @PoolName varchar(50) AS Declare @DT datetime Select @DT= (Select MAX(AccountBalance.DateX) From Company Company INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName) SELECT SiteRef.BalancePoolName, AccountBalance.DateX, AccountBalance.Balance FROM Company Company INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName And AccountBalance.DateX = @DT Order By AccountBalance.DateX DESC
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Dave
I'm very new to SSIS and I€™m trying to do the following in a SQL task
RESTORE DATABASE @DatabaseName FROM DISK = @Backup WITH FILE = 1, MOVE @OldMDFName TO @NewMDFPath, MOVE @OldLDFName TO @NewLDFPath, NOUNLOAD, REPLACE, STATS = 10
I'm using an OLE DB connection and I have mapped user variables to the various parameter names. Unfortunately when i test the above command it fails on must declare the scalar variable "@DatabaseName". How can i get my values to be substituted into the command?
Basically, I have a table with a column that stores mathematical formulas in string format. When my UDF is executed, it needs to select an appropriate formula from this table and evaluate it using values that are stored in local variables.Â
Look at the example below:
Suppose I have a string named @vcFormula that contains the following:"@dVar1 + @dVar2 / @dVar2"Now suppose I have a variable named @dVar1 that contains a value of 1.0, and variable @dVar2 contains a value of 2.5. I can use the REPLACE function to change my original string to look like this:"1.0 + 2.5 / 2.5"
Now I want to execute this string and find the numeric result, placing it in a variable named @dResult. The following works, but presents a problem:CREATE TABLE #Result (dResult decimal(20, 10))INSERT #Result EXEC('SELECT ' + @vcFormula)SELECT @dResult = dResult FROM #ResultThe problem with using this method comes from the fact that I need to be able to evaluate @vcFormula from within a user-defined function, but temporary tables are not allowed inside UDF's.Â
So I attempted to change the temporary table above into an instance of the TABLE data type. This didn't work either because EXEC cannot be used to populate instances of the TABLE data type. Then I came up with the bright idea to put the code above in a SP and call the SP from the UDF, but of course UDF's are not allowed to call SP's. Specifically, is there any way to execute a command/formula that is contained within a string other than by using EXEC?Â
I am building a stored procedure that changes based on the data that is available to the query. See below. The query fails on line 24, I have the line highlighted like this. Can anyone point out any problems with the sql?

Hello Which is faster : to write a a big stored procedure with if conditions, or to separate them and call them using exec?? i.e: if @id=1 insert into ....else if @id=2 update...-----------------------orif @id=1 exec InsertProcedureelse if @id=2 exec UpdateProcedurePlease help
Hope someone can help me out here - I'm trying to design a data flow in SSIS which relies in part on a stored procedure as a data source - I'm running it through OLE DB.
Sure Exec MystoredProc works fine on preview and on parsing, but it refuses to acknowledge any of the columns, when I go to Edit-->Columns everything is blank.
Just out of interest - the reason I am using a stored procedure is because I dump the data into a temp table and then amend a couple of the columns to make it the same as my other database (for example where len(field) = 6 then field = '0000' + field).
Possibly I'm better off taking the raw data through the OLE connection and then transforming it through SSIS, but my gut feeling is I should minimise what I'm dumping into SSIS and offload the processing onto the local DB. Any thoughts?
I'm new to SSIS and SQL Server 2005 and this is now driving me very mad!!
I have an OLE DB Command in my data flow task that I want to update a table with. I have looked round this forum and on Google and just can not find a solution or what I am doing wrong. So any help would be great!
The ole db command calls a stored procedure with two input variables:
exec stp_updedgrsholds status, temp_cr_num
from debugging the ssis it says it has updated 4 rows and also from doing a data view, the data it is updating seems all correct.
but nothing gets updated in the database.
If I call the stored procedure the following way
exec stp_updedgrsholds 'C', 87
It updates fine! I have tried a number of different way with @ symbols and assignment p_status = @status
IF @@ERROR = 0 BEGIN -- Success. Commit the transaction. Commit Tran END ELSE Rollback Tran
return GO
now the problem is, when i execute the stored procedure's inside the main stored procedure, and these sub sp's has an error on it, the main stored procedure doesnt rollback the transation.
now i can put the "begin transation" in the two sub stored procedure's. The problem is
what if the first "SP_Sub_One" executed successfully, and there was error in "SP_Sub_Two"
now the "SP_Sub_One" has been executed and i cant rollback it... the error occured in the "SP_Sub_Two" stored procedure ... so it wont run ... so there will be error in the data
how can i make a mian "BEGIN TRANSACTION" , that even it include the execution of stored procedure in it.
When I execute a stored procedure from an OLE DB Command transformation, where the sp takes a parameter and RetainSameConnection=TRUE and DelayValidation=TRUE are set, I get the error
"Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error"
If I take out the param or set RetainSameConnection=FALSE on the connection, all is fine again?
I 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?
I Have a problem When I execute a stored procedure from query analyzer (Exec storedname @parameter1='', @Parameter2='') it take 7 min. and I stop running
If I copy stored procedure , past it in Query analyzer and declare parameters it take 3 sec.
If I grant execute permissions on stored procedures in a database and the proc in turn creates tables in the DB, and if the user is not a db_owner, will the procedure be allowed to create those tables? or will the stored procs fail?
Hi all, From the "How to Call a Parameterized Stored Procedure by Using ADO.NET and Visual Basic.NET" in http://support.microsft.com/kb/308049, I copied the following code to a project "pubsTestProc1.vb" of my VB 2005 Express Windows Application:
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlDbType

Dim testCMD As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("TestProcedure", PubsConn)
testCMD.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Dim RetValue As SqlParameter = testCMD.Parameters.Add("RetValue", SqlDbType.Int)
Console.WriteLine("Number of Records: " & (NumTitles.Value))
End Sub
End Class
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// The original article uses the code statements in pink for the Console Applcation of VB.NET. I do not know how to print out the output of ("Book Titles for this Author:"), ("{0}", myReader.GetString(2)), ("Return Value: " & (RetValue.Value)) and ("Number of Records: " & (NumTitles.Value)) in the Windows Application Form1 of my VB 2005 Express. Please help and advise.
Is there a way to execute a stored procedure and have it move on without waiting for a response from the stored procedure. I am trying to create a button on a webpage that will execute a stored procedure but the procedure takes to long to run and my page times out. Instead I would like the button to start the procedure and the webpage look at a table of data. When the table of data is empty then I will know the stored procedure is complete. Is this possible?
Our report is working fine with data loaded from a stored procedure (#1) that contains a fairly simple Select statement. We need the same report to work with a dataset loaded from a stored procedure (#2) that uses 'Exec sp_executesql @queryString'. Unfortunately, attempts to call the latter cause an error in the report. From everything that I've read, there should be no difference between datasets created using either method. Any ideas what could be getting in the way of the latter?
I have doublechecked that the dynamic query is returning a valid dataset and that all the columns are in the same format as sp #1. The designer shows the dataset and the report with the data loaded, but the live system produces an error.
Hello,Is it possible to EXEC stored procedure from a query?I want to execute stored procedure for every line of SELECT resulttable.I guess it's possible with cursors, but maybe it's possible to make iteasier.Give an example, please.Thank you in advance.Hubert
I have a temporary table with multiple records and a Stored Procedure requiring a value. In a Stored Procedure, I want to loop through records in the table and use the value from each record read as input to another Stored Procedure. How do I do this?
I have a stored procedure where I run an insert statement. I want to knwo if it is possible to do it using a variable for the table name (either in-line or with an EXEC statement without building a string first and executing that string. See examples of what I am talking about in both cases below:
I want to be able to do this (with or without the EXEC) : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @NewTableNameOut as varchar(100)
Set @NewTableNameOut = 'TableToInsertInto'
EXEC( Insert Into @NewTableNameOut Select * From tableToSelectFrom )
I can not do the above because it says I need to declare/set the @NewTableNameOut variable (assuming it is only looking at this for the specific insert statement and not at the variable I set earlier in the stored procedure.
I can do it like this by creating a string with the variable built into the string and then executing the string but I want to know if I can do it like I have listed above.
It is not an issue for my simple example above but I have some rather large queries that I am building and I want to run as described above without having to build it into a string.
I am trying to debug stored procedure using visual studio. I right click on connection and checked 'Allow SQL/CLR debugging' .. the store procedure is not local and is on sql server.
Whenever I tried to right click stored procedure and select step into store procedure> i get following error
"User 'Unknown user' could not execute stored procedure 'master.dbo.sp_enable_sql_debug' on SQL server XXXXX. Click Help for more information"
I am not sure what needs to be done on sql server side
We tried to search for sp_enable_sql_debug but I could not find this stored procedure under master.
Some web page I came accross says that "I must have an administratorial rights to debug" but I am not sure what does that mean?
I am calling a stored procedure (say X) and from that stored procedure (i mean X) i want to call another stored procedure (say Y)asynchoronoulsy. Once stored procedure X is completed then i want to return execution to main program. In background, Stored procedure Y will contiue his work. Please let me know how to do that using SQL Server 2000 and ASP.NET 2.
