Sep 15, 2014In t-sql 2012, the followinng sql works fine when I declare @reportID.
IF @reportID <> 0
BEGIN
SELECT 'Students report 1' AS selectRptName, 1 AS rptNumValue
UNION
SELECT 'Students report 2', 2
UNION
[code]...
However when I use the sql above in an ssrs 2012 report, the query does not work since the @reportID parameter can have 0, 1, or up to 200 values.Thus I am thinking of calling the following following function to split out the parameter values:
FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_splitString]
(
@listString VARCHAR(MAX)
)
RETURNS TABLE WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
RETURN
(
SELECT SUBSTRING(l.listString, sn.Num + 1, CHARINDEX(',', l.listString, sn.Num + 1) - sn.Num - 1) _id
FROM (SELECT ',' + LTRIM(RTRIM(@listString)) + ',' AS listString) l
CROSS JOIN dbo.sequenceNumbers sn
WHERE sn.Num < LEN(l.listString)
AND SUBSTRING(l.listString, sn.Num, 1) = ','
)
GO
how to remove the @reportID <> 0 t-sql above and replace by calling the fn_splitString function?
How To Call A Function From A Column Formula In My MS SQL Table
Apr 24, 2007Good day!
What is the syntax on calling a function from a column formula in an MS SQL table.
I created a table, one column's value will be coming from a function. And at the same time, I will pass parameters to the function. How do I do this? Is this correct?
SELECT dbo.FunctionName([Parameter1, Parameter2])
But i can't save the table, "Error validating the formula".
Pls. help
Thanks a lot.

SQL Server 2012 :: Table Returning Function With Input Table Name As Parameter
Nov 19, 2014I'm using SS 2012.
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@Source_Tbl sysname
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl
)
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
The input table can have several thousand rows.
Table Name As Function Parameter
Mar 2, 2008I'm trying to write a function that I can run with passing the table name as a parameter. I want to return an integer. The tables wll be differnet types (different colums) but they all have a similar field that i want to get a count of. Someting alng the lines of this:
Create FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_GetItemsToPromote]
(
@TableName nvarchar(100)
)
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN
Declare @SQL nvarchar(500)
return select count(*) from [@TableName]where promote = 1
END
It doesnt like the @TableName. Can anyone show me how to do this correctly?
Thanks!
Function That Take A Table As Input Parameter
Feb 26, 2008hi all
i am using VS 2005 with SQL Server 2005 and i faced a problem that need to be solved urgently...
i want to make a function that take a table as input parameter which is the output of a stored procedure (Record set)...
first i found that to make w table be as input parameter you must create type of that table first but i found that sql server 2005 doesn't have the 'table' as a type...
please any help will be appreciated

Passing Table Name As Parameter To Function
May 24, 2008Hi all.
I'm writing reports in Rep. Services that reads data from Dynamics NAV (Navision). In NAV data are stored by company and this is implemented by using the company name as prefix to the table name. This means that in a NAV database with three companies (lets call these companies A, B and C) we will have three tables with customers. The table names will be A$Customer, B$Customer and C$Customer.
Now to my problem:
I wan't to write one report where I can choose company. I do not want to use a stored procedure. I want to use a function so I can use the function in select statements and join several functions to build up a report that needs data from several tables.
Is there some way to pass the table name or a part of the table name to a function that returns the content of the actual table? I know I can pass parameters that I can use in the where clause, but is it possible to do it with the table name. Or is there any other way to solve this.
All ideas are welcome. Thanks.

Using A Scalar Valued Function As A Parameter Of A Table Valued Function?
Feb 1, 2006Ok, I'm pretty knowledgable about T-SQL, but I've hit something that seems should work, but just doesn't...
I'm writing a stored procedure that needs to use the primary key fields of a table that is being passed to me so that I can generate what will most likely be a dynamically generated SQL statement and then execute it.
So the first thing I do, is I need to grab the primary key fields of the table. I'd rather not go down to the base system tables since we may (hopefully) upgrade this one SQL 2000 machine to 2005 fairly soon, so I poke around, and find sp_pkeys in the master table. Great. I pass in the table name, and sure enough, it comes back with a record set, 1 row per column. That's exactly what I need.
Umm... This is the part where I'm at a loss. The stored procedure outputs the resultset as a resultset (Not as an output param). Now I want to use that list in my stored procedure, thinking that if the base tables change, Microsoft will change the stored procedure accordingly, so even after a version upgrade my stuff SHOULD still work. But... How do I use the resultset from the stored procedure? You can't reference it like a table-valued function, nor can you 'capture' the resultset for use using the syntax like:
DECLARE @table table@table=EXEC sp_pkeys MyTable
That of course just returns you the RETURN_VALUE instead of the resultset it output. Ugh. Ok, so I finally decide to just bite the bullet, and I grab the code from sp_pkeys and make my own little function called fn_pkeys. Since I might also want to be able to 'force' the primary keys (Maybe the table doesn't really have one, but logically it does), I decide it'll pass back a comma-delimited varchar of columns that make up the primary key. Ok, I test it and it works great.
Now, I'm happily going along and building my routine, and realize, hey, I don't really want that in a comma-delimited varchar, I want to use it in one of my queries, and I have this nice little table-valued function I call split, that takes a comma-delimited varchar, and returns a table... So I preceed to try it out...
SELECT *FROM Split(fn_pkeys('MyTable'),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error. Ugh. Eventually, I even try:
SELECT *FROM Split(substring('abc,def',2,6),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error.
Hmm...What am I doing wrong here, or can't you use a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
SELECT *FROM Split('bc,def',DEFAULT) works just fine.
So my questions are:
Is there any way to programmatically capture a resultset that is being output from a stored procedure for use in the stored procedure that called it?
Is there any way to pass a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
Oh, this works as well as a work around, but I'm more interested in if there is a way without having to workaround:
DECLARE @tmp varchar(8000)
SET @tmp=(SELECT dbo.fn_pkeys('MyTable'))
SELECT *
FROM Split(@tmp,DEFAULT)

Table-valued Function Does Not Accept Chinese Characters As Parameter
Nov 15, 2007I have a table-valued function in mssql 2005 as below:
ALTER FUNCTION fn_test{ @test nvarchar(1000)}RETURNS@TEMP TABLE{ test nvarchar(1000)}ASBEGIN INSERT INTO @TEMP SELECT @test
RETURNEND
Everytime, I passed in chinese character (@test), such as 測驗, the function will return ????. What should I do for the table-valued function, so that the chinese character can be passed in? Please help.
Note: I can search and get the chinese characters if I use stored procedures; and the columns in the tables can store chinese chararcters as well. Only table-valued function is not working with the chinese characters. Is it a bug from MSSQL 2005?

View 6 Replies View RelatedReporting Services :: SSRS Multi-Value Parameter Feed To Table Value Function
Jul 24, 2015I have an SSRS report with several variables, some of which are multi-valued. The main query that feeds the report uses some table value functions. For example, the query looks something like this:
select tv1.a, tv1.b, tv2.x, tv2.y, tbl.m, tbl.n
from tableValueFunction1(@MultiValueParam) as tv1
inner join tableValueFunction2(@MultiValueParam) as tv2 on tv1.xxx = tv2.xxx
inner join regularTable as tbl on tv1.xxx = tbl.xxx
where tbl.abc in (@MultiValueParam).When I try to run this, I get an error saying that I'm feeding the wrong number of parameters into the table value functions. I've fed multi-valued parameters to stored procedures before and used a splitter function to split out the comma separated values, so I was planning to do the same thing in this scenario. However, this is different. When I look at the query in SQL Profiler, it shows discrete values for the multi value parameter. For example, the same query above looks like this when viewed through the profiler (using 1,2,3 as my multi-value selection):
select tv1.a, tv1.b, tv2.x, tv3.y, tbl.m, tbl.n
from tableValueFunction1(1,2,3) as tv1
inner join tableValueFunction2(1,2,3) as tv2 on tv1.xxx = tv2.xxx
inner join regularTable as tbl on tv1.xxx = tbl.xxx
where tbl.abc in (1,2,3)
In other words, SSRS isn't converting the multi-value parameter to a comma separated string, like it normally does.

Need Help Understanding A Call To A Sql Function
Feb 25, 2008Can someone help me to understand a stored procedure I am learning about? At line 12 below, the code is calling a function named"ttg_sfGroupsByPartyId" I ran the function manually and it returns several rows/records from the query. So I am wondering? does a call to the function return a temporary table? And if so, is the temporary table named PartyId? If so, the logic seems strange to me because earlier they are using the name PartyId as a variable name that is passed in.

When Updating a record and calling the stored procedure, I want to query another table (we'll call it tblBatchNo) that has only one record, Batchno. I want to put that current batchno into the Update statement and update the record with the current batchno. Can someone point me in the right direction?
