Hello, i got this working using vb.net but becuase I'm learning asp.net I thought it would be a ggood idea to replicate the same function using C# as well1
The problem is I receive an output parameter through a stored procedure which is the users id.
I want to add this to a cookie as I know I'll be using it again and again, but the error I keep getting is cannot cxonvert type 'string' to type 'int'.
I've tried using conversion functions to make the value returned into an int value but I had no success!
I did this -
int id = (int)mycommand.Parameters["@id"].Value;
and then try to save that to the cookie but the error keeps appearing, I've also tried using the parse and ToInt32 function but the same/similar problems - any ideas?
Inside some TSQL programmable object (a SP/or a query in Management Studio)I have a parameter containing the name of a StoreProcedure+The required Argument for these SP. (for example it's between the brackets [])
I can't change thoses SP, (and i don't have a nice output param to cach, as i would need to change the SP Definition)All these SP 'return' a 'select' of 1 record the same datatype ie: NVARCHAR. Unfortunately there is no output param (it would have been so easy otherwise. So I am working on something like this but I 'can't find anything working
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
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim PubsConn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;integrated security=sspi;" & "initial Catalog=pubs;")
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.
Hi everyone, can anyone help me please I have a stored procedure that works quite well and returns one of the following codes, 1 2 3 or 4 which is dependant on business criteria. This sp works well and satsisfies all the criteria etc. I am calling this SP in asp.net (c#) like this using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["blah"].ConnectionString)) { int? intSQLCheck = null; con.Open(); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("check_values", con); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@param_clothing_id", this.DropDownList2.SelectedValue.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@empNo", this.DropDownList1.SelectedValue.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@createdBy", this.txtEmpNo.Text.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@price", this.txtPrice.Text)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@qty", this.txtQty.Text)); //cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@returnValue", 0)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@returnVal", 99)); cmd.Parameters["@returnVal"].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
What I would like to do know is use a variable intSqlCheck to hold the return value from the SP (and then do some processing of business logic using the variable) Any ideas anyone please
Hi, I have a form with a detailsview and a sqldatasource. The sqldatasource uses a stored procedure as the select command. This stored procedure requires 2 input parameters and returns 3 output parameters. A button on the form is enabled or disabled depending on the value of the output parameters. When the page loads, I get a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" message, caused by the null value of an output parameter. SQL Profiler shows that the input parameters are correct, and if I run the stored procedure directly, it's okay. Can anybody tell me why I wouldn't get the output parameters? Thanks,Neil
I am new to SQL and trying to work out how to do this
i have a table called projectAllocationLog with 4 fields, there can be many users of any particular project, ie ID,projectID, User, Date 4 5000, 6, 10/02/2007 3 5000, 12, 08/07/2005 2 5004, 13, 08/05/2003 1 5000, 14, 04/05/2001
I want to write a stored proceedure that I can pass in the projectID, and return the most current user, this will always be the user with the highest ID for the project
ie for project 5000 it will be user 6
I was thinking along the lines of for each project select the top 1 from the table. where I can pass in the projectID, and pass out the ID field of the table. i am just not sure how to start this.
I am trying to select multiple values from the row with the max id,and output them within my stored procedure. How would I combine thefollowing two rows so that I only need to use "from mytable whereIDnum = (select (max(IDnum)) from mytable))" once. I have at least 8other outputs I will be setting and would like this to work moreefficiently than setting each individually... if possible.set @outmtd = (select outmtd from mytable where IDnum = (select(max(IDnum)) from mytable))set @outytd = (select outytd from mytable where IDnum = (select(max(IDnum)) from mytable))Thanks for any help you can giveMatt
Hi all,Is there a data transfer difference between returning a datareader that only has one row or using output parameters? For instance, I have a login page that shows the last login, member since, display level, number of file views, etc. Currently I am returning a datareader that reads one row and assigns this data to labels. But would it be quicker to use OUTPUT parameters instead of using a dataread and just get the values from the command object?ThanksJosh
When I call a proc with one input parameter and two output parameters, (all the three parameters having defaults in the proc), I was expecting to see these values defaulted to in the proc. But apparently, this not the case. Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong here? Appreciate your time.

I call this proc via a vb.net program using a command.executenonquery and then look at the parameter.
For some reason I only get the first letter of the string back! i.e. if the string is LSDNET/nik I get 'L'.
If I run the proc from visual studio step in to procecure it works fine!
the vb I'm using is... (the createaddparameter simply creates a bunch of parameters to add to a command -with the specified names and dbtypes).
I'm obviously missing a trick but what it is I can't see. I seem to be able to pass all other data types back easily!
Dim LoadUserCommand As New SqlCommand
'create add command Dim CreateAddParameter() As String = {"@UserGUID", _ "@UserPACSName", "@PASName", "@UserPACSPassword", _ "@UserPACSPasswordIV", "@UserFriendlyName", "@Message", "@MessageNumber"} Dim UpdateDBTypes() As DbType = {DbType.Guid, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, _ DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.Int32}
Dim lclRet As Integer = LoadUserCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
Dim tmpDomainName As String tmpDomainName = LoadUserCommand.Parameters(6).Value.ToString 'read the name back
Dim tmpMsgNumber = LoadUserCommand.Parameters(7).Value 'read the message number back
Select Case tmpMsgNumber 'not written yet as I haven't got this far!!! Case 1 'pacs username already exists Case 2 'pas username already exists Case 3 'execute fine and all names updated
can somebody let me understand how this Output parameters works in sp_executesql / Dynamic TSQL
I want to store a integer value resulting from executing a dynamic query. I was trying to follow the syntax but to be honest I didn't get it, and resulted in err. So can somebody help me in understanding how it works and how and where to declare the variables to be output and what command does that Output etc.
I'm trying to output all the values selected through a multivalue parameter, but I am having difficulties. In the text box, the parameter contains only four member functions (value, label, count, ismultivalue). However, to output a value or label for the parameter you need to specify an index in the form of:
Parameters!Names.Value(0)
Ideally, I would like to be able to obtain all these values with a function call, but it doesn't look like there is one. Any ideas of how to get all the values?
i built a stored procedure with inserting in to customers table. i have one column with identity. so want to take that identity column value in the same stored procedure. so how can i write that procedure with insert in to statements in that stored procedures.
can any one tell me. also how to get that value in ado.net 2.0. friends please tell me.
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)
Dim mySqlDataSource As SqlDataSource = New SqlDataSource
' Add Some Parameter Dim someParameter As Parameter = New Parameter("someParameterName", TypeCode.String) someParameter.DefaultValue = New String("Some Value") someParameter.Direction = Data.ParameterDirection.Output
Here is my problem: I have a strored procedure that inserts some records
into one table and then selects some records from another table at the end.
The stored procedure takes several parameters, first one of them is marked as
OUTPUT. I'm using it to return an id of the inserted record. The procedure is called from asp.net code with first parameter set as ParameterDirection.InputOutput (tried with just Output as well). Now for the problem: if the the select statement at the end returns 0 records everything works and i my first parameter contains the @@IDENTITY value from the insert statement like it is supposed to.
If the select statement at the end returns 1 or more records my output parameter is not updated at all and contains the same value as before the procedure was run. All the records are inserted correctly.
if i try to return the @@identity as a plain select statement instead of through the parameter i get System.DBNull.
I hope you can shed some light on this for me. Here is my stored procedure:
INSERT INTO INQUIRY (LibraryName, ContactName, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone, Email, Comment) VALUES(@libraryName, @contactName, @address, @city, @state, @zip, @phone, @email,@comment)
--i tried including this statement at the end as well but that did not do the
--trick either
select @inquiryId=@@IDENTITY FROM INQUIRY
set nocount on declare @separator_position int -- This is used to locate each separator character declare @objectId varchar(200) -- this holds each array value as it is returned
if(@productIds is not null) begin while patindex('%,%' , @productIds) <> 0 begin select @separator_position = patindex('%,%' , @productIds) select @objectId= left(@productIds, @separator_position - 1) INSERT INTO PRODUCT_INQUIRY_LOOKUP (ProductId,InquiryId) VALUES(@objectId, @inquiryId) select @productIds = stuff(@productIds, 1, @separator_position, '') end end set nocount off
Select Distinct Email from vPRODUCT_CONTACT WHERE ProductId in (Select ProductId From Product_Inquiry_Lookup Where InquiryId=@inquiryId)
I've an existing SQL 2000 Stored Procedure that return data in many (~20) output parameters.
I'm starting to use it in a .Net c# application and it seems to insist that I setup all the output parameters: SqlParameter param = cmd.Parameters.Add("@BackgroundColour",SqlDbType.TinyInt); param.Direction=ParameterDirection.Output; even if I only need the value of a single one. Is this right? Is there a way to avoid coding every one every time?
EXEC('SELECT COUNT(docid) AS Total FROM docs WHERE ' + @QueryFilter)I want to get the cound as an output parameter.I can get output parameters to work only when I dont use EXEC. I need to use EXEC for this case since @QueryFilter gets generated in the stored procedure based on some some other data.How can I get that count using ouput parameter?
I am using SqlDataSource programmatically in my data access layer - mainly for convenience but it does generally work fine with no obvious performance issues. The problem I have is with getting back an output parameter. I have an insert-type stored procedure (in Sql Server 2005) operating on a table with an identity column as the primary key: ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertAlbum](@ArtistID int, @Title nvarchar(70), @NewID int OUTPUT)ASDECLARE @err intINSERT INTO dbo.ALBUMS (ARTISTID, TITLE)VALUES (@ArtistID, @Title)SELECT @err = @@error IF @err <> 0 RETURN @errSET @NewID = SCOPE_IDENTITY() This works fine when run from Sql Server Management Studio and @NewID has the correct value. My data access code is roughly as follows: dsrc = New SqlDataSource()dsrc.ConnectionString = ConnectionStringdsrc.InsertCommand = "InsertAlbum"dsrc.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedureDim parms As ParameterCollection = dsrc.InsertParametersDim newid As IntegerAddParameter(parms, "ArtistID", TypeCode.Int32, ParameterDirection.Input, 0, album.ArtistID)AddParameter(parms, "Title", TypeCode.String, ParameterDirection.Input, 0, album.Title)Dim p As New Parameter("NewID", TypeCode.Int32)p.Direction = ParameterDirection.Outputparms.Add(p)Try Dim rv As Integer = dsrc.Insert() newid = parms("NewID") Return newidCatch ex As Exception Return -1End Try The row is inserted into the database, but however I try to define and add the NewID parameter it never has a value. Has anyone tried to do this and can tell me what I am doing wrong? Jon
I have the following stored procedure working with an Access 2000 front end. The output parameters returned to Access are both Null when the record is successfully updated (ie when @@Rowcount = 1), but the correct parameters are returned when the update fails. I'm a bit new to using output parameters, but I have them working perfectly with an insert sproc, and they look basically the same. What bonehead error have I made here? The fact that the record is updated indicates to me that the Commit Trans line is being executed, so why aren't the 2 output parameters set?
TIA
EDIT: Solved, sort of. I found that dropping the "@ResNum +" from "@ResNum + ' Updated'" resolved the problem (@ResNum is an input parameter). This implies that the variable lost its value between the SQL statement and the If/Then, since the SQL correctly updates only the appropriate record from the WHERE clause. Is this supposed to happen? I looked in BOL, and if it's addressed there I missed it.

I've written a stored procedure that returns a value via an output parameter.
I'm calling the stored procedure in an sql session is a loop, and it passes the value back correctly the first time, but all subsequent calls the output parameter appears to have the same value. I believe that I'm making some very basic mistake, but I can't work it out.
Here's how I'm calling the stored procedure several times begin declare @instrumentid int exec GetInstrumentId 'OFX,AUDCHF,p,1,2007-03-20 16:54:21.843,2007-06-20,100.1', @instrumentid output; select @instrumentid exec GetInstrumentId 'OFX,AUDUSD,c,2,2007-03-20 16:54:21.843,2007-06-20,100.2', @instrumentid output; select @instrumentid exec GetInstrumentId 'OFX,AUDCHF,p,3,2007-03-20 16:54:21.843,2007-06-20,100.3', @instrumentid output; select @instrumentid end
And this is the start of the stored procedure
Create PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetInstrumentId] (@Ticket varchar(250), @InstrumentId int output) AS
If I call the stored procedure once it gives the corect output, if I call it several times the output parameter (@instrumentid ) never changes.
The following is a code snippit. My main interests are the OUT and OUTPUT parameter keywords. One returns a single value, and the other seemingly a resultset. OUTPUT returns a single value, however OUT seems to return a list of values. Could I please get this confirmed?
Also, I cannot see how the value being returned by OUT is being iterated...
Any help on the obove two matters is appreciated.
Thank You

We seem to have an problem with using sp_executesql and retrieving back NVARCHAR output parameters. We are trying to dynamically set string values using string templates ( for English and other languages that require using NVARCHAR parameters ). A test case is:
I am trying to create a proc and at the end of the proc I want to call another proc and pass to one of the parameters to proc using the result from the "OUTPUT". Is it possible to use the results from the "OUTPUT" and use them as parameters?
USE [MyDB] GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
ex: myprocedure(@Cusname varchar(50), @Cusid int output)as Insert into Customer(Cusname) values (@Cusname)SELECT @cusid = @@IDENTITY i add the query to my adapter called CreatCustomer (@Cusnam,@Cusid)private Merp_CusListTableAdapter _CuslistAdapter = null;protected Merp_CusListTableAdapter Adapter { get {if (_CuslistAdapter == null) _CuslistAdapter = new Merp_CusListTableAdapter();return _CuslistAdapter; } } Now how i write function in BLL to receive output paramter from creatcustomer function?
I am stuck on how to syntactically retrieve an output value (@ProdCount) from a stored procedure. The SPROC works fine: the value of @ProdCount appears correctly in the output window. However, I can't retrieve it in the DAL handler (value remains 0). Does anyone have an idea on how to properly extract the return value. TIA for any pointers.SPROC (abridged): ALTER PROCEDURE and_Store_GetProductsByProdCatID_SortPage (@ProdCatID INT,...@ProdCount INT OUTPUT )
ASSELECT @ProdCount=(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM and_StoreProduct WHERE ProdCatID= @ProdCatID)DECLARE @SQL nvarchar(4000)SET @SQL = 'WITH tmpProd AS ( SELECT ROW_NUMBER() etc.. )SELECT ProdID, etc..FROM tmpProdWHERE Row BETWEEN etc..ORDER BY etc..'
EXECUTE(@SQL)RETURNDAL handler (abridged): Public Overloads Shared Function GetProductListByCatID(ByVal ProdCatID As Integer, ..., ByVal ProdCount As Integer) As List(Of Product) Dim productList As List(Of Product) = New List(Of Product) Try Using con As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("conAnders").ConnectionString) Dim cmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("and_Store_GetProductsByProdCatID_SortPage", con) cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ProdCatID", ProdCatID) '... cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ProdCount", ProdCount) ' Output parm.

I have written a simple C# console application that create my own Stored Procedures the code is here ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
static void Main(string[] args) { SqlConnection cn; string strSql; string strConnection; SqlCommand cmd; strConnection="server=(local);database=Northwind;integrated security=true;"; strSql="CREATE PROCEDURE spmahdi @CustomerID nchar(5) @counter int OUTPUT AS SELECT OrderID, OrderDate,RequiredDate,ShippedDate FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID ORDER BY OrderID SET @counter=@@rowcount"; cn=new SqlConnection(strConnection); cn.Open(); cmd=new SqlCommand(strSql,cn); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); cn.Close(); Console.WriteLine("Procedure Created!"); }
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ but it has some errors becuase of my strSql strSql="CREATE PROCEDURE spmahdi @CustomerID nchar(5) @counter int OUTPUT AS SELECT OrderID, OrderDate,RequiredDate,ShippedDate FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID ORDER BY OrderID SET @counter=@@rowcount"; I mean in creating the stored procedure if i delete the Output parameter from my stored procedure and my strSql would be somethimg like this strSql="CREATE PROCEDURE spmahdi @CustomerID nchar(5) AS SELECT OrderID, OrderDate,RequiredDate,ShippedDate FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID ORDER BY OrderID "; There will be no errors I use Visual Studio.NET 2003(full versoin)and MSDE(not Sql Server) Could someone help me solve this problem? Thanks and Regards.
I'd like to incorporate search functionality (SQL Server 2005 Full-Text Search) into a web application, so I want to be able to return a paged list of results based on the user's search terms. I already have a parameterized stored procedure that returns a list of products when a category ID is supplied. I modified this procedure to use a different input parameter (@SearchTerms), but I'd still like to return the number of records, as in the original stored procedure.
However, I'm getting this error: Invalid object name 'ProductEntries'.
Here's the original stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetProductsByCategoryID ( @CategoryID INT, @PageIndex INT, @NumRows INT, @CategoryName VARCHAR(50) OUTPUT, @CategoryProductCount INT OUTPUT ) AS
BEGIN SELECT @CategoryProductCount = (SELECT COUNT(ProductID) FROM Products WHERE Products.CategoryID = @CategoryID) SELECT @CategoryName = (SELECT CategoryName FROM Categories WHERE Categories.CategoryID = @CategoryID)
WITH ProductEntries AS ( SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ProductID) AS Row, ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM Products WHERE CategoryID = @CategoryID )
SELECT ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM ProductEntries WHERE Row BETWEEN @startRowIndex AND @startRowIndex + @NumRows - 1
END
And here's the modified one:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetSearchResults ( @SearchTerms VARCHAR(200), @PageIndex INT, @NumRows INT, @ProductCount INT OUTPUT ) AS
BEGIN SELECT @ProductCount = (SELECT COUNT(ProductID) FROM ProductEntries)
WITH ProductEntries AS ( SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ProductID) AS Row, ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM CONTAINSTABLE (Products, *, @SearchTerms, 25) AS c, Products p WHERE c.[KEY] = p.ProductID )
SELECT ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM ProductEntries WHERE Row BETWEEN @startRowIndex AND @startRowIndex + @NumRows - 1
END
I thought I might be getting this error because SELECT @ProductCount occurs before the ProductEntries table is created, but when I move that SELECT statement further down, I still get the same error.
How can I get the value of @ProductCount in this scenario so that I can display it in the UI of the web app?
I am using version 9.00.2047.00 SP1 of Visual Studio 2005.
Using ADO.NET, I have been unable to get the Execute SQL task to successfully return the value of an output parameter defined as varchar or nvarchar when the value is null. No other data types seem to have this problem, including the sql_variant data type.
The variables to which the three output parameters return their values have a data type of Object. The task runs fine when the integer or datetime parameters are used, and the variables can be identified as null using IsDBNull. But as soon as the nvarchar (or varchar) parameter is included, the task fails with this message:
"The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 1 ("@vc"): Data type 0xE7 has an invalid data length or metadata length."
I have seen a couple of postings that sound similar to this problem, but so far I have found no resolution. Any advice would be much appreciated.
I have an event: Private Sub SqlDataSourceIncome_Deleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs) Handles SqlDataSourceIncome.Deleted Dim command As SqlClient.SqlCommand command = e.Command If command.Parameters("@nReturnCode").Value <> 0 Then DROPDEAD() End If That fires from: <DeleteParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="nDeletebyId" Type="Int64" /> <asp:Parameter Name="nOtherId" Type="Int64" /> <asp:Parameter Direction="Output" Name="nReturnCode" Type="Int64" /> <asp:Parameter Direction="Output" Name="nReturnId" Type="Int64" /> </DeleteParameters> End Sub
When I: GridViewIncome.DeleteRow(GridViewIncome.SelectedRow.RowIndex) But nReturnCode is ALWAYS NULL... I even did a stored procedure that just: ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_nDeletebyId] @nReturnCode bigint output, @nReturnId bigint output AS SET @nReturnCode = 0 SET @nReturnId = 0 And STILL got nothing but the NULLS... the insert & update stuff works fine, with identical code... it's just the DELETED event that I can't seem to knock. Has anyone seen this before? The above sample stored proc did return 0 when executed one the server... and, BTW, the row is deleted!
