Hello,
I would like to pass into a stored procedure the name of a table. Following code does not work.
USE pubs
GO
CREATE PROC test1
@tableName varchar(40)
AS
SELECT * FROM @tableName
EXEC test1 @tableName='authors'
I would appreciate it very much if someone could help me with this.
Thanks
I'm trying to replace a table name in 250 stored procedures. I found this script below which does a good job but it also finds tables with similar names. How can I limit the replacement to the exact table name? If my original table name is MyTable001, I do not want to find MyTable001_ID.
-- set "Result to Text" mode by pressing Ctrl+T
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @sqlToRun VARCHAR(1000), @searchFor VARCHAR(100), @replaceWith VARCHAR(100)
-- text to search for
SET @searchFor = 'MyTable001'
-- text to replace with
SET @replaceWith = '[MyTable002]'

View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know the syntax to reference a table in a stored procedure using a parameter? I'm trying to make a stored procedure that will "SELECT INTO" a table as the passed parameter. I keep getting an syntax error when I use this:
CREATE PROCEDURE make_table
@tablename varchar(20)

SELECT * FROM old_table
INTO @tablename
I've tried it several ways, but I can't get it to work, and I haven't found any examples of this anywhere. Thanks in advance for any tips.
HiCan someone please shed some light as to how this can be done. With the below sql statement as you can see I don't want to declare the table name but would rather the table name be passed in via a parameter. I've tried declaring it as a varchar parameter but it doesnt seem to like it if I don't add a valid table name. Any ideas how this can be done. Thanks.select * from @tableName where condition = condition

I want something like this :
create proc myProc ( @num int ,@name varchar(80))
as
select @num = max(field1) from @name
but there is a problem that the @name is a varchar and the error is :
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_myProc, Line 3
Line 3: Incorrect syntax near '@name'.
I tried
select @num = max(field1) from object_id(@name)
and the error was the same
is ther another way than :
exec ("declare @num int select @num = max(field1) insert into anotherTable values( @num) " ) ?

I have upsized a complex Access 97 application to SQL Server 7, and want to substantially preserve the user interface design by using an Access 2000 project (*.adp) as the front end.
Most of the original Access queries accepted their parameters from screen form objects, and this works well using SQL 7 stored procedures as form recordsources.
However, Access 2000 does not seem to provide a way to tell a listbox or combo box how to pass a parameter value from a screen form object to its SQL 7 stored procedure rowsource.
These parametized listboxes are critical to the interface design.
Please help!!!
Sorry if I haven't choose appropriate forum for this question.
I have MSSQL05 beta. I know how to list all stored procedures in selected database (everything is in localhost). I need to list parameter names and types for selected stored procedure(s).
How can I do that or anything that can return parameter names and types?
It's windows application.
I setup the databse and Visual Web Developer to use
stored procedures when the insert command is used. The
database also uses the field UserName that I pass using a
SessionParameter within the InserParameter block from the
Membership.GetUser.Username from the aspnet_ tables.
My difficulty is when using the "Formview" as the body to
with which to insert (I wanted the design versatility of
FormView) I get an error: "system.formatExpression: Input
string was not in a correct format" when I leave the
textboxes empty and invoke the insert command. I first
assumed that the bound textboxes are not being converted
correctly when left blank, so I used the
ConvertEmptyStringToNull=True, with no success. I then
coupled that with the Type=[correct format] still with
the same error. Alas, my final attempt was to set
defaults in the "ALTER PROCEDURE" within the stored
procedure itself.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

How can a Stored Procedure use a variable table name and column name ?
The statement :-
SELECT @columnname FROM @tablename
gives error "Line 5: Incorrect syntax near '@tablename'."
I am passing the parameters 'tablename' and 'columnname' into the stored procedure, (in order to select a variable column from a variable table).
If I hard-code the tablename, then I get a column of output with just the name of the column I was trying to list, e.g. surname,
i.e. SELECT @columnname FROM employeetable gives :-
surname
surname
surname
surname
surname
surname
How can I get the procedure to accept a variable table name and column name ?
I thought one way to do it would be to use the 'EXEC' statement :-
SELECT @sql = 'SELECT '+ @columnname +' FROM '+@tablename
EXEC(@sql)
but this gives error : "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'FROM' "
although the following table works :-
SELECT @sql = 'SELECT surname FROM '+@tablename
EXEC(@sql)
The problem seems to be mainly with variable column names.
Also, we don't really want to use the EXEC statement because it will not be compiled and will be slower. (Does anyone know by how much slower ?)
Any advice would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Ian.

I am using Excel VBA to run a stored procedure which executes a package using the built-in SQL Server stored procedures. The VBA passes two values from excel to the stored proc., which is then supposed to pass these "parameters" to the package to use as a variable within the package.
@Cycle sql_variant = 2
WITH EXECUTE AS 'USER_ACCOUNT' - account that signs on using windows authentication
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
declare @execution_id bigint
[code]....
When I try to execute the package, from SQL Server or Excel using the Macro I built, I get the following error:"The parameter '[User::Cycle]' does not exist or you do not have sufficient permissions." I have given the USER_ACCOUNT that runs executes the stored procedure permission to read/write to the database and the SSIS project folder.
I want to know the differences between SQL Server 2000 storedprocedures and oracle stored procedures? Do they have differentsyntax? The concept should be the same that the stored proceduresexecute in the database server with better performance?Please advise good references for Oracle stored procedures also.thanks!!

This Might be a really simple thing, however we have just installed SQL server 2005 on a new server, and are having difficulties with the set up of the Store Procedures. Every time we try to modify an existing stored procedure it attempts to save it as an SQL file, unlike in 2000 where it saved it as part of the database itself.
Thank you in advance for any help on this matter
Using SQL 2005, SP2. All of a sudden, whenever I create any stored procedures in the master database, they get created as system stored procedures. Doesn't matter what I name them, and what they do.
For example, even this simple little guy:
CREATE PROCEDURE BOB
AS
PRINT 'BOB'
GO
Gets created as a system stored procedure.
Any ideas what would cause that and/or how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jason
Hello,
since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest]
@Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS
BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON
set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table'
if (@Name <> '')
begin
set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + ''''
end
EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery
end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created:
-the shared data source with the connection String
- a data set :
CommandType = Stored Procedure
Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest
When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter...
So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name
allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
What is wrong? What I forgot??
Thankx for any help!

I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
How do I search for and print all stored procedure names in a particular database? I can use the following query to search and print out all table names in a database. I just need to figure out how to modify the code below to search for stored procedure names. Can anyone help me out?
SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'
Seems like I'm stealing all the threads here, : But I need to learn :) I have a StoredProcedure that needs to return values that other StoredProcedures return.Rather than have my DataAccess layer access the DB multiple times, I would like to call One stored Procedure, and have that stored procedure call the others to get the information I need. I think this way would be more efficient than accessing the DB multiple times. One of my SP is:SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, S.Name AS 'StatusName', S.ItemDetailStatusID, S.InProgress as 'StatusInProgress', S.Color AS 'StatusColor',T.[Name] AS 'TypeName', T.Prefix, T.Name AS 'ItemDetailTypeName', T.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails I INNER JOIN Item.ItemDetailStatus S ON I.ItemDetailStatusID = S.ItemDetailStatusID INNER JOIN [Item].ItemDetailTypes T ON I.ItemDetailTypeID = T.ItemDetailTypeID However, I already have StoredProcedures that return the exact same data from the ItemDetailStatus table and ItemDetailTypes table.Would it be better to do it above, and have more code to change when a new column/field is added, or more checks, or do something like:(This is not propper SQL) SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailStatusInfo I.ItemDetailStatusID, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailTypeInfo I.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails IOr something like that... Any thoughts?

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!
We recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. We had several stored procedures in the master database and, rather than completely rewriting a lot of code, we just recreated these stored procedures in the new master database.
For some reason, some of these stored procedures are getting stored as "System Stored Procedures" rather than just as "Stored Procedures". Queries to sys.Objects and sys.Procedures shows that these procs are being saved with the is_ms_shipped field set to 1, even though they obviously were not shipped with the product.
I can't update the sys.Objects or sys.Procedures views in 2005.
What effect will this flag (is_ms_shipped = 1) have on my stored procedures?
Can I move these out of "System Stored Procedures" and into "Stored Procedures"?
Thanks!
Hello friends......How are you ? I want to ask you all that how can I do the following ?
I want to now that how many ways are there to do this ?
How can I call one or more stored procedures into perticular one Stored Proc ? in MS SQL Server 2000/05.
Hello
I'm start to work with SSIS.
We have a lot (many hundreds) of old (SQL Server2000) procedures on SQL 2005.
Most of the Stored Procedures ends with the following commands:
SET @SQLSTRING = 'SELECT * INTO ' + @OutputTableName + ' FROM #RESULTTABLE'
EXEC @RETVAL = sp_executeSQL @SQLSTRING
How can I use SSIS to move the complete #RESULTTABLE to Excel or to a Flat File? (e.g. as a *.csv -File)
I found a way but I think i'ts only a workaround:
1. Write the #Resulttable to DB (changed Prozedure)
2. create data flow task (ole DB Source - Data Conversion - Excel Destination)
Does anyone know a better way to transfer the #RESULTTABLE to Excel or Flat file?
Thanks for an early Answer

Hi,
Do you know how to write stored procedures inside another stored procedure in MS SQL.
Create procedure spMyProc inputData varchar(50)
AS
----- some logical
procedure spMyProc inputInsideData varchar(10)
AS
--- some logical
--- go
-------
I am writing a set of store procedures (around 30), most of them require the same basic logic to get an ID, I was thinking to add this logic into an stored procedure.
The question is: Would calling an stored procedure from within an stored procedure affect performance? I mean, would it need to create a separate db connection? am I better off copying and pasting the logic into all the store procedures (in terms of performance)?
Thanks in advance

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,
What is the difference between
<Tablename> . . <ColumnName> and <Tablename> . <ColumnName>
this syntax we are using in Storedprocedures.
In SQL 2000, <Tablename> . . <ColumnName> is not working
Eg:
Tablename =a
Column Name = b
Difference between a..b and a.b
Can anyone let me know.
TIA,
