Retrieving To Local Variable From Select Top ...
Feb 29, 2008
Hi,
I€™ve got the following statement :
SELECT TOP(1) Date, Status FROM TABLE1 WHERE TEC_STATUS = 1 ORDER BY DATE DESC
I want to retrieve the status field to a variable, but I€™m not being able to do so€¦ I think its due to the TOP function€¦
I have tried those with no success:
SELECT @var2 = TOP(1) [Date], @var = [ Status] FROM TABLE1 WHERE TEC_STATUS = 1 ORDER BY DATE DESC
SELECT @var2 = [TOP(1) Date], @var = [ Status] FROM TABLE1 WHERE TEC_STATUS = 1 ORDER BY DATE DESC
Is there Any way I can do that ?
Thanks

Hi all
Imagine we have a table as follow:
Create Table Test(
Pkey int not Null identity Primary Key,
Name varchar(20) not null,
Famil varchar(30) not null
)
now is there anyway to Run following Script:
declare @FLDName varchar(10)
set @FLDName='Name'
Select @FLDName from Test
in the other hand is there anyway to use Local variables in a SELECT statements as above?
to tell you the truth , what really motivated me to do this , was being able to declare a User-Defined-Function and passing some fields as an String and then use them in a SELECT statement or any other T-Sql codes!!!
Could anyone help me.?
Kind Regards.

Hi all,
I'm trying to be slick, but so far am just all wet *snicker*
I've got a table with rows that may or may not exist, and am trying to retrieve a column if an associate row DOES exist.
For argument's sake, my PIndex table looks like:
PID int
CreateDate smalldatetime
CloseID float
Here is my select logic that I thought would save an extra select to load my local variable if the row is actually in the table...
DECLARE @CloseID float
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT @CloseID = CloseID
FROM PIndex
WHERE ((PID = '14') and
(CreateDate = '2004-02-06')))
SET @CloseID = 100
The SET afterwards is just to initialize the variable if it can't be had from an existing row in the table.
The trouble is, that it fails to compile with the following error:
>>>>> Line 3: Incorrect syntax near '='.
Any insights? My goal is to use a single select to load the value into my local variable if the associated row exists, or to set my local variable to 100 if it doesn't.
Thanks!
Paul

Not wishing to derail the other recent thread on loading a local variable, I've posted this query (hee,hee,hee...I kill me) on a separate thread...though I think I am trying to do something similar...that is to build a dynamic select statement, but return a count of the rows it finds/doesn't find to a local variable...using the (amazingly timely) responses above, I tried this:
Note that the local variables @TargetDate and @TLevel are necessary because they are being passed into the procedure as variables....
DECLARE @SQLCmd varchar(256)
DECLARE @TargetDate smalldatetime
DECLARE @TLevel int
DECLARE @n int
SET @TargetDate = '2004-05-24'
SET @TLevel = 1
SET @SQLCmd = 'SELECT @n = count(*) FROM EventLog WHERE ((CONVERT(varchar(10), [Date], 101) = ''' +
CONVERT(varchar(10), @TargetDate, 101) + ''') AND (MsgLevel = ' +
CONVERT(varchar(3), @TLevel) + '))'
exec (@SQLCmd)
if @n > 0
print 'yep'
else print 'nope'
and, it's TRYING to work...but apparently the local variable @n is not recognized in the execution of the dynamic statement, as this is the output:
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Must declare the variable '@n'.
nope
Thoughts?

I am trying to figure out a way to retrieve a field value and assign it to a local variable with out destroying the whole structure of my T-SQL statement.
Here is the code:
DECLARE @AVERAGE_WHOLESALE_PRICE VARCHAR(20)
DECLARE @ORDERBY VARCHAR(20)
SELECT TOP 1 @AVERAGE_WHOLESALE_PRICE = P.NPT_PRICEX,
CASE NPT_TYPE
WHEN '07' THEN 1
WHEN '09' THEN 2
[Code] ....
The error message is
Msg 141, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
A SELECT statement that assigns a value to a variable must not be combined with data-retrieval operations.
How to modify this statement?

Hi all hope some one can help - please bear with me new to this
Basically I have had to change pc's so I copied and pasted my ASPNET.MDF and LDF from my old pc to new PC including webpages/apps etc.. created.
However now all I get is "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path """"
Just don't understand what permissions the db should have, does it need to match the SQL Express owner...
any help would be most appreciated
Thanks

I installed my asp.net 2.0 web application and sql express june editon on my windows 2003 server.When the application tries to reach the database i am getting the following error"Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed."I can understand that it has something to do with user right but more than that I am pretty lost. Can anyone translate this error for me and give me some tips on what do to.I checked first the user running the sql express service and saw it was the NETWORK SERVICE user. I changed it to be the local system account but that did not make any difference. The application is running just fine on my local computer(Win XP sp2). This one has SQL express April edition though.

I am trying to create a procedure or function that will deal with weekly information for staff records.
Rather than declaring 14 local variables for the information, is it possible to declare a local variable as an array? Sorry for using VB terminology - not sure how SQL would describe it.

Hello everybody,
Here I have two tables. Let's call them A and B.
A contains the folowing data: (address of persons)
PostCode Street Number CdeTour
-------- ------ ------ -------
31000 Well. 0025 NULL
31000 Well. 0050 NULL
31000 Wash. 0010 NULL
B contains the folowing data:
PostCode Street FirstEven LastEven FirstOdd LastOdd CdeTour
-------- ------ --------- -------- -------- ------- -------
31000 Well. 0002 0040 0043 0073 100
31000 Well. 0042 0084 0001 0041 200
31000 Wash. 0002 0050 0001 0049 100
* My problem is that I want to update the field A.CdeTour depending on the data present in B.
Let's take the first line from the table A: the number of the street 'well.' is '25', and '25' is odd and between '1' and '41' which meens that I should update my field A.CdeTour should be set to '100' (B.CdeTour).
Let's take another example, so in the second line: the street is still 'well.' but here the number is '50'. '50' is even and between '42' and '84' so the field A.CdeTour should be set to '200' (B.CdeTour).
Here I wrote a query, which doesn't work properly:
DECLARE @Num VARCHAR(4)
UPDATE A
SET @Num = Number, CodeTournee=
CASE WHEN @Num % 2 = 0 THEN(
-- even number of street
SELECT CdeTour
FROM B
WHERE @Num BETWEEN FirstEven AND LastEven
AND A.PostCode = B.PostCode
AND A.Street = B.Street
)ELSE(
-- odd number of street
SELECT CdeTour
FROM B
WHERE @Num BETWEEN FirstOdd AND LastOdd
AND A.PostCode = B.PostCode
AND A.Street = B.Street
)END
FROM A, B
The query runs but the problem is that it doesn't update the field, because it doesn't interpret @num by its value.
In fact, if instead of @num, I hard-code a value it works
... WHERE '0025' BETWEEN FirstOdd AND LastOdd ...
Can someone help me???? I would be very pleased, if someones could give me another way of doing it or a trick in order to avoid this problem.
Thanks in advance.

I execute the following in my Query Analyzer:
Declare @Test varchar(8000)
Set @Test='SELECT VIOXX_LastName + '' + VIOXX_FirstName + '' + CONVERT(varchar(50), VIOXX_Number) AS PlaintiffsName, VIOXX_Number

VIOXX_Number IN (SELECT tblCase_Plaintiff.VIOXX_Number FROM tblCase INNER JOIN tblCase_Plaintiff ON tblCase.Case_Number = tblCase_Plaintiff.Case_Number
WHERE (tblCase.Status = ''InActive'')) ORDER BY VIOXX_Number, VIOXX_LastName'
Select @Test
and get the following result:
SELECT VIOXX_LastName + ' + VIOXX_FirstName + ' + CONVERT(varchar(50), VIOXX_Number) AS PlaintiffsName, VIOXX_Number
FROM tblPlaintiff WHERE VIOXX_Number NOT IN(SELECT VIOXX_Number FROM tblCase_Plaintiff) OR
VIOXX_Number IN (SELECT
the latter part of my original text is not stored in the variable. Is there some limitation on the number of characters for a local variable in transact sql?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hi guys I am sitting and testing som variants of this simple SP, and I have an question that I couldent answer with google or any thread in this forum.
Perhaps I am doing something really easy completly wrong here.
Why does the local variables in the first code segment slow down the overall execution of the procedure?
Dont mind the logic why I have them there are only testing som things out.
If i declare two variables the same way:
DECLARE @v INT
SET @v = 100
When I use it in a WHERE CLAUSE:
...WHERE [V] BETWEEN @v AND @x)
Is there any different then
...WHERE [V] BETWEEN 100 AND 200)
Cant figure this out, why does it hurt the performance so bad? As a C# guy its the same thing ?
Thanks in advance

Hi guys,
I have a cursor that loops over a table and I use a local variable to append the column data. However when I try to print this variable, it comes as empty!
The code is
declare @testVar varchar(max)
<cursor loop begins>
set @testVar = @testVar + ',' + @SomeColName
<cursor loop ends>
print 'Value: ' + @testVar
I can't understand why the @testVar is empty, since the @SomeColName has a value in every iteration.
Thanks!

I've created a stored procedure that converts an input string in richtext format (input as type TEXT) to plain text. I would like to be able to return this newly converted string, but I need to have some way of storing it in a local variable. My problem is that since I can't use the TEXT datatype as a local variable, I have no way of storing the large amounts of text I converted within the procedure. The VARCHAR(8000) just isn't large enough for my purposes. Anyone have any suggestions on how to go about doing this?

Is there a way to determine if a local variable exists or not?
There's a parameter I often use in code called @guid_batch that is usually declared in the parameter of a stored proc, but when in debugging it would be nice to have it available without having to change code.
Is there something that I could do similar to the following
Code:
IF VARIABLE_ID('@guid_batch') IS NULL
BEGIN
DECLARE @guid_batch UNIQUEIDENTIFIER
SELECT @guid_batch = NEWID()
END
Thanks in advance,

ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cb3'
Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Nothing on the site has changed. If I change the sp back the errors go away. I'm trying to use local variables in all SP to avoid the slowness that can happen when using the parameter varibles.
