Run Stored Procedure In Specific Database
Jul 20, 2007
I have created a stored procedure in the master database that can be run against any database on the server.
I call this procedure from a sql server agent job. In this job I specify the database I want the procedure to run against but it always seems to run against the master database (presumably because the procedure is in this database). I can't switch database inside the procedure so what can I do other than creating a copy of the procedure in every database?

I have a question. I know its possible to create a dynamic query and do an exec @dynamicquery. Question: Is there a simpler way to update specific columns in a table at run time without doing if else for each column to determine which is null and which has a value because i'm running into a design dilemna on how to go about it.
FYI: All columns in the table design are set to null by default.
Thanks in advance,
Dimeji

I have a few questions about the following t-sql 2008 r2 sql code listed below that is calling a stored procedure:
DECLARE@return_value int,
@endYear SMALLINT = 2014,
@CustomerID INT = '9999',
@Schedules CHAR(1) = N'C'
EXEC [dbo].[sproom] @endYear
,@CustomerID
,@Schedules
The sql listed above does execute the stored procedure called [dbo].[sproom] successfully and returns all the data all the rows from the stored procedure multiple times. However can you tell me the following:
1. How can I have the stored procedure return distinct rows?
2. I want the stored procedure to return selected columns. I tried using the OUTPUT parameter for some of the columns, but I got the error message, "Procedure or function spHomeroom has too many arguments specified.".
when I change the sql above to:
DECLARE @return_value int,
@endYear SMALLINT = 2014,
@CustomerID INT = '9999',
@Schedules CHAR(1) = N'C',
@CustName varchar(50)
EXEC [dbo].[sproom] @endYear
,@CustomerID
,@Schedules
,@CustName
That is when I get the error message.
A solution might be to change the stored procedure, but I would prefer not to since this is a generic stored procedure that I believe a lot of t-sqls and stored procedures will use.

I have a stored procedure that runs every 5 minutes. I have one block in the procedure that will only run if there are records in a temp table. In addition, I would like this block to run only if the current time is between 0 and 5 minutes past the hour or between 30 and 35 minutes past the hour.
Currently, my block looks like this:
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#tmpClosedPOs') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
I can get the current minutes of the current time by using:
Select DATEPART(MINUTE,GetDate())
I know that it should be simple, but I'm pretty new at Stored Procedures. How do I alter the IF statement to check for the time and only run the block if it's between the times I stated? I started to DECLARE @Minutes INT, but wasn't sure where to go from there.

Hi,
I'm creating a generic procedure in the master db and I'm getting the database name as a input parameter.
How do I set the database inside the procedure , according to this parameter?
T-Sql does not accept "USE" inside procedures .
I tried "sp_defaultdb" but when I select from a specific table in the procedure it still does not identify the table as belonging to that database, it still looks for the table in the master db.

Is it possible to execute a stored procedure in one database, which thenitself executes a stored procedure from another database? We have decide tosplit our data into a tree structure (DB1) and data blobs (DB2) (we areusing MSDE and we have a 2gb limit with each DB so we've done it this wayfor that reason). I would like to, say, execute a stored procedure in DB1,passing in the data blob and other details, DB1 will create a tree node inDB1 and then add the blob record to DB2. DB1 will wrap in a transaction ofcourse, as will DB2 when it adds the blob. Is this possible?

hi alli've got two tables called "webusers" (id, name, fk_country) and "countries" (id, name)
at the meantime, i've a search-page where i can fill a form to search users. in the dropdown to select the country i included an option which is called "all countries".
now the problem is: how can i make a stored procedure that makes a restriction to the fk_country depending on the submitted fk_country parameter?it should be something like
SELECT * FROM webusers(if @fk_country > 0, which is the value for "all countries"){ WHERE fk_country = @fk_country}
who has an idea how to solve this problem?

I have a stored procedure that calls a msdb stored procedure internally. I granted the login execute rights on the outer sproc but it still vomits when it tries to execute the inner. Says I don't have the privileges, which makes sense.
How can I grant permissions to a login to execute msdb.dbo.sp_update_schedule()? Or is there a way I can impersonate the sysadmin user for the call by using Execute As sysadmin some how?
Thanks in advance

Greetings:
I have MSSQL 2005. On earlier versions of MSSQL saving a stored procedure wasn't a confusing action. However, every time I try to save my completed stored procedure (parsed successfully ) I'm prompted to save it as a query on the hard drive.
How do I cause the 'Save' action to add the new stored procedure to my database's list of stored procedures?
Thanks!

I am wondering if there is a way to create a procedure in a logging database that can identify the source database from which it is invoked. DB_NAME() of course returns the name of the database in which the stored procedure exists. I could pass the database name as a parameter to the proc, just wondering if there is another way.
This is SQL 2005, I did look into the sys.dm_exec views but nothing seems to have a dbid reflecting the calling context.
Thanks,
Mike

I have a stored procedure that is located in one database and I would like to have it execute against a different database. My problem is when I go to execute it, it is still executing against the database it is stored in. Is it possible to tell this stored procedure when it runs to execute its code against this second database?
This is what I have now, which isn't working:
Code Snippet
use [Database2]
exec [Database1].[dbo].usp_SetupDatabaseUser
The end result still executes against Database1.
Thanks for any advice,

Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie
exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created'
returns an int value as 1
(performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created')
but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie:
exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1'
which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc):
SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example).
My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert).
Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

Hi,
I have a set of databases. Each user had his own database. Every database had the same stored procedures. The is one "admin" database where content about these users is stored.
When I want to update or change a stored procedure I have to update it in every database. Therefore I want to put the stored procedures in the "admin" database. From there I have to access the databases of the user. I want to send the database name as a parameter.
How can I change de database which te procedure should access?
If I use the "use" statement I complains about that I can't use that command in a stored procedure. I've tried this method too:
SELECT * FROM @databasename.dbo.tblname
but that's not accepted too.
Does anybody know how to select another database in the stored procedure?

Hi there :)
I was hoping someone could help me figure out why this doesn't work....
I have a class called ProductsDB with a method called AddProduct that looks like this:
public String AddProduct(int categoryID, int makeID, string name, double price, double saleprice, double offerprice, int homepage, string thumbpath, string imagepath, string description)
{
// Create Instance of Connection and Command Object
SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["ConnectionString"]);
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("ProductsAdd", myConnection);
// Mark the Command as a SPROC
myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
// Add Parameters to SPROC
SqlParameter parameterCategoryID = new SqlParameter("@CategoryID", SqlDbType.Int, 4);
parameterCategoryID.Value = categoryID;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterCategoryID);
SqlParameter parameterMakeID = new SqlParameter("@MakeID", SqlDbType.Int, 4);
parameterMakeID.Value = makeID;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterMakeID);
SqlParameter parameterName = new SqlParameter("@Name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50);
parameterName.Value = name;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterName);
SqlParameter parameterPrice = new SqlParameter("@Price", SqlDbType.Money, 8);
parameterPrice.Value = price;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterPrice);
SqlParameter parameterSalePrice = new SqlParameter("@SalePrice", SqlDbType.Money, 8);
parameterSalePrice.Value = saleprice;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterSalePrice);
SqlParameter parameterOfferPrice = new SqlParameter("@OfferPrice", SqlDbType.Money, 8);
parameterOfferPrice.Value = offerprice;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterOfferPrice);
SqlParameter parameterHomepage = new SqlParameter("@Homepage", SqlDbType.Bit, 1);
parameterHomepage.Value = homepage;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterHomepage);
SqlParameter parameterThumbnail = new SqlParameter("@Thumbnail", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50);
parameterThumbnail.Value = thumbpath;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterThumbnail);
SqlParameter parameterImage = new SqlParameter("@Image", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50);
parameterImage.Value = imagepath;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterImage);
SqlParameter parameterProductID = new SqlParameter("@ProductID", SqlDbType.Int, 4);
parameterProductID.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterProductID);
try
{
myConnection.Open();
myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
myConnection.Close();
// Calculate the ProductID using Output Param from SPROC
int productId = (int)parameterProductID.Value;
return productId.ToString();
}
catch
{
return String.Empty;
}
}
And then in another cs file for my aspx page I have an event handler for an add button in a webform, which looks like this:
// Add New Product to ProductDB database
bikescene.Components.ProductsDB accountSystem = new bikescene.Components.ProductsDB();
String productId = accountSystem.AddProduct(Int32.Parse(DDLproductcategory.SelectedValue), Int32.Parse(DDLproductmanufacturer.SelectedValue), TBproductname.Text, Double.Parse(TBproductprice.Text), Double.Parse(TBproductsaleprice.Text), Double.Parse(TBproductofferprice.Text), Int32.Parse(DDLproducthomepage.SelectedValue), thumbnailpath, imagepath, TBproductdescription.Text);
And finally, here is my stored procedure:
CREATE Procedure ProductsAdd
(
@ProductID int,
@CategoryID int,
@MakeID int,
@Name nvarchar(50),
@Price money,
@SalePrice money,
@OfferPrice money,
@Homepage int,
@Thumbnail nvarchar(50),
@Image nvarchar(50),
@Description nvarchar(500)
)
AS
INSERT INTO Products
(
productID,
categoryID,
makeID,
name,
price,
saleprice,
offerprice,
homepage,
thumbpath,
imagepath,
description
)
VALUES
(
@ProductID,
@CategoryID,
@MakeID,
@Name,
@Price,
@SalePrice,
@OfferPrice,
@Homepage,
@Thumbnail,
@Image,
@Description
)
SELECT
@ProductID = @@Identity
GO
Basically, my images are uploaded to the server just fine but nothing is being added to the database + I don't get any error messages.
Any ideas?
Many thanks indeed :)

I am trying to write a stored procedure that has an inner join between two tables from two different databases on the same sql server.
Something like...
Select * FROM
DB1-table1 INNER JOIN DB2-table1
ON DB1-table1.ID = DB2-table1.ID
yada yada yada.......
Does anyone know how to do this or is it possible? If so, what database should I put the stored procedure in or does it matter?

We are trying to develop some standards for SQL stored procedures and I am wandering what is the preferrable method to reference a table within a stored procedure for use within a Client Server / Web OLTP.
One:
SELECT Customer_Id, Customer_Name FROM CUSTOMER
Or TWO:
SELECT Customer_Id, Customer_Name FROM [DATABASENAME].[dbo].[CUSTOMER]
Most of my background is in working with data warehousing which is constantly loading between a staging and main DB, so I am in the habit of using TWO, but is this the best method for an OLTP and why.
Thanks

I am very new to stored procedures and fairly new to SQL in general. I have a stored procedure that looks like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_UpdateProductsTable
@prodName varchar(50),
@prodManufacturer varchar(50),
@prodShortDescrip text,
@prodLongDescrip text,
@prodCatId int,
@prodPrice varchar(6),
@prodSortOrder int,
@prodActive int,
@prodId int
AS
if( @prodId <> 0 )
begin
update Products set
Name = @prodName,
Manufacturer = @prodManufacturer,
ShortDescription = @prodShortDescrip,
LongDescription = @prodLongDescrip,
CategoryID = @prodCatId,
Price = @prodPrice,
SortOrder = @prodSortOrder,
Active = @prodActive
where ID = @prodId;
select ID as prodId from Products where ID = @prodId
end
if( @prodId = 0 )
begin
insert into Products ( Name, Manufacturer, ShortDescription, LongDescription, Price, CategoryID, SortOrder, Active )
values( @prodName, @prodManufacturer, @prodShortDescrip, @prodLongDescrip, @prodPrice, @prodCatId, @prodSortOrder, @prodActive );
SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() AS prodId
end
GO
I have recently added two new fields to the database that I need the stored procedure to act upon, but adding them into the above code does not work. I read somewhere that this would happen with new fields, but I do not know how to fix this issue. Could someone point me in the right direction and help me out? I also have some other tables and SP's that I need to update, but its the same issue, I think so fixing this one should help me out across the board.
Thanks in advance for your help.

From within a stored procedure in an existing database I'm creating a new database from the scratch.
In the query window if I write the statement:
CREATE DATABASE [tomasdb]
USE [tomasdb]
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE TEST1
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @something varchar(12)
set @something = '123'
END
everything works ok and the database is created and the stored procedure Test1 is created within it.
However, if I want to do the same from another stored procedure (in another database), i.e. I write
EXEC('
CREATE DATABASE [tomasdb]
USE [tomasdb]
CREATE PROCEDURE TEST1
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @something varchar(12)
set @something = ''123''
END
')
the problem I get is that I'm not allowed to put USE to change the execution context into [tomasdb] before the CREATE PROCEDURE statement.
My question is: how can I change the context in this situation / or / can I create the stored procedure in the [tomasdb] database somehow from outside (another context).
Thanks,
Tomas

Hello,I need to come up with a stored procedure that will allow me to readdata from another database. The database I need to read the data fromis a UniData residing on a Unix server. The stored procedure needs toreside on my sql 2005 server. The task is very simple in Access as wehave ODBC connections set up to the UniData via Informix (or IBM)UniData ODBC drivers. I can easily combine my UniData and Sql Servertables from within access. However, I can't seem to find a way toreplicate the same behavior in MS SQL Stored Procedure without the useof Access. Is that even possible?Thanks,Marek

As I had real problems working my head around sp_spaceused, I've written anSP to do it (I also noted a lot of questions about this when "searching").Pass in a database name and it will return the size of the database as afloat (ie. 0.75 for 0.75mb).
