Problem With Virtual Table As Parameter
Jul 23, 2006
Hi all,
here is what i have so far
set @fld_name = 'sales_vol'
set @tbl_name = 'tbl_sales'
create @tbl table (val int, rank int identity(1,1))
---
I want to insert values of colum 'sales_vol' into the 'val' of the table 'tbl_sales'
i tried this
execute sp_executesql
n'insert into @t(value) select @fld_name from @tbl_name'
---
sql analyser keeps telling me : "Must declare the variable '@t'."
Can I do this? If not, is there another way?
Thank you.

here is a sample data for 'sales_vol'

:confused: Please forgive this elementary question. I have database which has a view that produces the desired records and fields from multiple tables. As I understand it a view is a Virtual Table. My problem is I need to export these results periodically to deliver to a customer. I am running this database on SQL Server 2000 if I right click on a table I have the option to dts the data to a text file but when I right click on the view I do not have this option. How can I make this virtual table an actual table. PLEASE Help Thank You, Ed

I'm using SQL Server 2005 version 9.0.3054.
In the distribution.dbo.MSsubscriptions table, the field subscriber_db has a value of "virtual".
This is only occurring for one of my transactional publications.
There are 2 rows with "virtual" and they have subscriber_id's of -1 and -2.
There is a third and last row for that transactional publication that points to the correct db.
What does "virtual" mean and why does it appear?
More info:
I have 3 transactional subscriptions. The first two were created via SMO. The third one, with the "virtual" subscriber_id, was originally created manually via SSMS. I then generated scripts from SSMS in order to recreate it again later. Those stands out from the other two with differences in these columns:
snapshot_seqno_flag
value is 0 rather than 1;
independent_agent
value is 1 rather than 0;
article_id
value is 3 for all three rows listed for the subscription in that table;
status
values for the three rows are 1,2,1 respectively. Whereas my other subscriptions have status 2.
agent_id
values for the three rows are each different (10,11,12) whereas the agent_id for each of the rows in the other two publications is consistently the same.
publisher_seqno
ss_cplt_seqno
are displayed as equal for each row whereas the values for those two fields for rows for the other 2 publications are not equal; The value formats are different too. Example:
0x000013340000125200C1 0x000013340000125200C1
0x000013340000125200C7 0x000013340000125200C7
0x000013340000127D0012 0x000013340000127D0012
instead of format like the following for the other 2 publications:
0x00002CB2000026370001
0x00002CAF0000022B000100000002
0x00002CB2000026370001
0x00002CAF0000022B000100000002
0x00002CB2000026370001
0x00002CAF0000022B000100000002
0x00002CB2000026370001
0x00002CAF0000022B000100000002
No other columns appear unusual.

I was just messing around with some ad hoc views and table returningUDFs today so I could look at and print out data from a small tableand noticed something strange.If I stick my select statement into a View the columns are returned inthe order I specify in the SELECT, but if the same statement is in a UDF(so I can specify a parameter), the columns are not returned in theorder specified in statement.I know that relations don't have a specified column order, but it was myunderstanding that a SELECT statement could be used to define how youwant your data presented. Views seem to respect the order specified inthe SELECT, but functions don't.What am I missing? Is there some way to force the order of the columnsreturned from a SELECT?View:CREATE VIEW dbo.View1ASSELECT Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, ForStmt, IfStmt, ChildStmt,ThenStmt, ElseStmt, NextStmtFROM dbo.tblStmtWHERE (Ident LIKE '4.2.%')Column order from this view:Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, ForStmt, IfStmt, ChildStmt, ThenStmt,ElseStmt, NextStmtFunction:ALTER FUNCTION dbo.Function1(@SearchPrm varchar(255))RETURNS TABLEASRETURN ( SELECT Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, ForStmt, IfStmt,ChildStmt, ThenStmt, ElseStmt, NextStmtFROM dbo.tblStmtWHERE (Ident LIKE @SearchPrm) )Column order from this function:Type, Text, ElseStmt, NextStmt, IfStmt, ChildStmt, ThenStmt, Ident,ParentStmt, ForStmtTable:(I know that this table isn't entirely normalized, but it serves mypurposes to have a matrix instead of a fully normalized relation):CREATE TABLE dbo.tblStmt (StmtID INT IDENTITY(1,1) CONSTRAINT PK_Stmt PRIMARY KEY,Ident VARCHAR(255),Text TEXT,ErrorText TEXT,Type INT,ParentStmt VARCHAR(255),ChildStmt VARCHAR(255),IfStmt VARCHAR(255),ForStmt VARCHAR(255),ThenStmt VARCHAR(255),ElseStmt VARCHAR(255),NextStmt VARCHAR(255),FullName VARCHAR(255),LocalName VARCHAR(255),Method INT)INSERT INTO tblStmt Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, NextStmtVALUES('4.2.1', 'LineNumberOfResp := EMPTY' 64, '4.2', '4.2.2')INSERT INTO tblStmt Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, ChildStmt, ForStmt,NextStmtVALUES('4.2.2', 'FOR K:= 1 TO 2', 128, '4.2', '4.2.3','4.2.7')INSERT INTO tblStmt Ident, Text, Type ParentStmt, ChildStmt, ForStmt,NextStmtVALUES('4.2.3', 'Person[K].KEEP', 16, '4.2', '4.2.3.1', '4.2.2', '4.2.4')INSERT INTO tblStmt Ident, Text, Type, ParentStmt, NextStmtVALUES('4.2.3.1' 'AuxInterviewerName := DOSENV', 64, '4.2.3', '4.2.3.2')

I'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.

I have a SSIS package that is constantly running out of virtual memory, right now I am on a development server, running only this package. The package is moving data from one table into another on the same server in the same database. The server has 3 Gb of memory and is only running SS2005 and SSIS. I am a local admin on the server and running the package through BIDS, once again for our initial testing. I tried setting the property BufferTempStoragePath to our E drive so it can utilize the 100 Gb of free space we have but that doesn't seem to work either. I have also tried setting the MaxRowSize to many different values to no avail. I am constantly getting an error, see below for exact error, when it gets through roughly half the load. Moreover it reports this error about 500 times in the progress report if I let the package run to completion. Finally, when all is said and done the package has moved the data successfully but the package always shows as failing.
I have googled continuously on this problem but have not found a resolution. I did see on a post here where it was recommended to run the package out of process, however I don't see the benefit at this point when this is the only package I am running. I also don't understand why it would report the error so many times and fail the package when it is completing successfully? Source and Destination have the same number of records at the end of the task. Could someone please try to make sense of this.
Getting Error:
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: The buffer manager detected that the system was low on virtual memory, but was unable to swap out any buffers. 4 buffers were considered and 4 were locked. Either not enough memory is available to the pipeline because not enough is installed, other processes are using it, or too many buffers are locked
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Guys,
Windows XP, IIS 5.1
I have written an installer that creates an MS SQL Database, creates the
necessary data tables and then imports the data into the data tables. All
this works fine.
I now need to copy the web pages to a directory on the users machine and
then make the chosen directory a virtual directory so the user can call the
pages in the usual way (http://localhost/mytestsite/index.html)
Would anyone know how to create a virtual directory using dos command line parameters. I have seen something using "IIsVdir.vbs" but I do not have this script file.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Best Regards,
Steve.

What is a virtual server?In my new job,my boss mentioned about moving the websites from a physical server to a virtual server.Why is this done or needed?
Also he insists that I buy and install SQL server 2000 enterprise edition in my laptop and use the enterprise manager to access their server.Can't I just download the client tools from their SQL package and be able to access their server?Do I need a CAL or is it just enough to have a permission in their network for my laptop?
Can anybody throw some light here please?Thanks!

Can a table be passed as parameter to a T-SQL procedure or function?One can define a temporary table within a procedure, and the system then manages its lifetime, keeps it separate from other instances executing the same procedure, etc: - CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.name (@Parameter1, @Parameter2) AS BEGIN DECLARE @name TABLE (column list) etcPerfect: but I need to be able to have another [recursive] procedure process this table. How do I make it available to the second procedure? If I write EXEC procedure @Namean error message "Must declare the variable '@Name'" is produced. Within the 2nd procedure, an attempt to name a table within the parameter list results in another error message, "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'TABLE'". If I can't pass it as argument/parameter, then how do you process a temporary table in another procedure? Do I pass a cursor to it? Or is it quite impossible?Regards, Robert Barnes.

Im struggling with this, I think its probably quite simple. I have a table that looks like this:
RecordId
PictureId
KeywordId
111
212
313
421
522
623
725
817
932
1044
I want to be able to run a query for a distinct listing of PictureIds that have KeywordId=1 and Keyword=2. When trying a simple query like:select PictureId from PicturesKeywords where (keywordid=1 and keywordid=2) group by PictureId
It obviously returns nothing. What am I doing wrong?

I really need some help. This is what I'm trying to do: first of all, i have a PC running Vista. Now on that PC, i have a virtual machine using VMWare Workstation 6, which has Win XP with SP2 installed on it. On the virtual machine, i have Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with SP2; now, the thing is, i have a program in C#, which is supposed to connect to a network, but since I'm running on just one PC which is not connected to a network, i instead connect to 127.0.0.1 via port 1433. Now here's where my problems start. At first, i could not connect because i kept receiving an error which said "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provedier: TCP provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.)". A friend of my mine helped, so i did the following: i went into SQL Server Surface Area Configuration (configuration for localhost) , changed the remote connections to allow for both local and remote, using both TCP/IP and named pipes, restarted the database engine, started the SQL Server Browser; then i went to administrator tools, Data Sources (ODBC), and from System DSN tried to add an SQL Server. I gave it a name, and on the server textbox i tried typing "localhost", but doing so, i could not get past the next screen, (i did specify the port as 1433) where i have to chose between win nt and sql server authentication, and neither would work (even though i know the sa password and can log on to SQL Management Studio using that password). Then i tried copying the server name from the management studio, as the server when trying to add the system DSN. That seems to have worked, and i finished ading the SQL Server to the System DSN, using the database which i wanted. But after all these steps, i still get the exact same error as before - "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the
fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote
connections. (provedier: TCP provider, error: 0 - No connection could
be made because the target machine actively refused it.)".If someone can please help - i've tried everything i can think of - i can access the internet from the virtual machine, i even tried disabling the firewall, but no luck. Is it because of the virtual machine? If so, can anyone suggest a solution? I actually doubt it, because i've even tried to install it on my pc, not the virtual machine, so on vista - and also installed SP1 for VS 2005 and SP1 for Vista, but still the same thing. Sorry for making this post so long, but if anyone can help, i'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

I am trying to undertstand how does sql 2005 decide how to use the memory.
Does it use RAM first than the virtual memory or does it decide what to use conditionaly?
Anybody have an idea? Like if the table is really big does it put half
of the table to RAM and the other half to virtual memory ?

One of our clients controls data for about 150 companies. Each company has the same schema and is running SQL Server 7. The maintenence task is horrible. He would like to put all the data in one large database, but needs to control the access, so a user at one company selecting data in a table cannot have access to another company's data in the same table. I thought about using views for each company but that is 150 companies times 100 tables. With Oracle8i you can make virtual private databases. Can this be done in SQL Server 7? Thanks in advance
