What Am I Missing Here? Using A Stored Proc Output To Build Table Rows

Nov 27, 2007

Hi all,

I have access to a stored procedure that was written previously for a process that uses the output from the stored procedure to provide input to a BCP operation in a bat file that builds a flat text file for use in a different system.

To continue with the set up, here is the stored procedure in question:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[HE_GetStks] AS

select top 15
Rating,
rank,
coname,
PriceClose,
pricechg,
DailyVol,
symbol
from

(selectf.rating,
f.rank,
s.coname,
cast ( f.priceclose as decimal(10,2)) as PriceClose,
cast ( f.pricechg as decimal(10,2)) as pricechg,
f.DailyVol,
f.symbol
from dailydata f, snames s
where f.tendcash = 0
and f.status = 1
and f.typ = 1
and f.osid = s.osid) tt
order by rating desc, rank desc

GO

The code in the calling bat file is:
REM *************************
REM BCP .WRK FILE
REM *************************
bcp "exec dailydb.[dbo].[HE_GetStks]" queryout "d:TABLESINPUTHE_GetStks.WRK" -S(local) -c -U<uname> -P<upass>

This works just peachy in the process for which it was designed, but I need to use the same stored procedure to grab the same data in order to store it in a historical table in the database. I know I could duplicate the code in a separate stored procedure that does the inserting into my database table, but I would like to avoid that and use this stored procedure in case the select statement is changed at some point in the future.

Am I missing something obvious in how to utilize this stored procedure from inside an insert statement in order to use the data it outputs? I know I cannot use an EXECUTE HE_GetStks as a subquery in my insert statement, but that is, in essence, what I am trying to accomplish.

I just wanted to bounce the issue of y'all before I go to The Boss and ask him to change the procedure to SET the data into a database table directly (change the select in the proc to an INSERT to a local table) then have the external BAT file use a GET procedure that just does the select from the local table. This is the method most of our similar jobs use when faced with this type of "intercept" task.

Any thoughts?

Argument Data Type For Dateadd Parameter

Mar 24, 2008



I am using the following code in my SQL stmt in my OLE BD Source stmt:

WHERE ICINVENTORY.ICINVLastChgAt > ? AND ICINVENTORY.ICINVLastChgAt <= DATEADD(mi,?,?)

My parameters are as follows:
0 - User:LastSalesLoadDate DateTime variable
1 - User:Load Interval Int16 (or Int32)
2 - User:LastSalesLoadDate

When I try to close the program I get the following error:

"Argument data type datetime is invalid for argument 2 of dateadd function. If I can't use a datetime data type for the date time part of the dateadd, what can I use?

The exact same code runs without error in an EXECUTE SQL task.

Thanks.

The Age Old Argument Of Temp Table Vs Table Variable

Jan 26, 2007

Hi All,Hope someone can help me...Im trying to highlight the advantages of using table variables asapposed to temp tables within single scope.My manager seems to believe that table variables are not advantageousbecause they reside in memory.He also seems to believe that temp tables do not use memory...Does anyone know how SQL server could read data from a temp tablewithout passing the data contained therein through memory???Is this a valid advantage/disadvantage of table variables VS temptables?

Stored Proc's Using OUTPUT

Jun 16, 2004

How can I view the output of a stored procedure that is returning a OUTPUT variable? I've written a stored proc that uses OUTPUT but when I run it, all I see is "The command(s) completed successfully." I'm at a loss on how to debug/verify/view the output value.

The same thing happens using this example from MS.

CREATE PROCEDURE titles_sum @TITLE varchar(40) = '%', @SUM money OUTPUT
AS
SELECT 'Title Name' = title
FROM titles
WHERE title LIKE @TITLE
SELECT @SUM = SUM(price)
FROM titles
WHERE title LIKE @TITLE
GO

Sending Table Variable Argument Using MSFT JDBC Driver

Nov 21, 2006



I want to call a stored procedure that has a table variable as its parameter. I am using the MSFT SQL Server 2005 JDBC driver 1.1, however I don't know how to construct a table variable from the Java side to place within a CallableStatement. The CallableStatement interface allows me to set various types of parameters (e.g. Boolean, Byte, Blob, Array, etc.) but I don't see anything for table variable.

Is there a way to do this?

Using A Cursor Output From Stored Proc

Feb 19, 2005

Has anyone ever tried to use a cursor as an output variable to a stored proc ?

I have the following stored proc - CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.myStoredProc
@parentId integer,
@outputCursor CURSOR VARYING OUTPUT
AS
BEGIN TRAN T1
DECLARE parent_cursor CURSOR STATIC
FOR
SELECT parentTable.childId, parentTable. parentValue
FROM parentTable
WHERE parentTable.parentId = @parentId
OPEN parent_cursor

SET @outputCursor = parent_cursor

DECLARE @childId int
DECLARE @parentValue varchar(50)
FETCH NEXT FROM parent_cursor INTO @childId, @parentValue
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SELECT childTable.childValue
FROM childTable
WHERE childTable.childId = @childId

FETCH NEXT FROM parent_cursor INTO @childId, @parentValue
END

CLOSE parent_cursor
DEALLOCATE parent_cursor
COMMIT TRAN T1
GOAnd, I found that I had to use a cursor as an output variable because, although the stored proc returns a separate result set for each returned row in the first SQL statement, it did not return the result set for the first SQL statement itself.

My real problem at the moment though is that I can't figure a way to get at this output variable with VB.NET.Dim da as New SqlDataAdapter()
da.SelectCommand = New SqlCommand("myStoredProc", conn)
da.SelectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Dim paramParentId as SqlParameter = da.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@parentId", SqlDbType.Int)
paramParentId.Value = 1

Dim paramCursor as SqlParameter = daThread.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@outputCursor")
paramCursor.Direction = ParameterDirection.OutputThere is no SqlDataType for cursor. I tried without specifying a data type but it didn't work. Any ideas?

Thanks

Retrieving Output Parameter From Stored Proc

Oct 2, 2006

I have difficulty reading back the value of an output parameter that I use in a stored procedure. I searched through other posts and found that this is quite a common problem but couldn't find an answer to it. Maybe now there is a knowledgeable person who could help out many people with a good answer.The problem is that  cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Value evaluates to null. If I call the stored procedure externally from the Server Management Studio Express everything works fine.Here is my code:using (SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(this.ConnectionString))
{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("mys_ExistsPersonWithUserName", cn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = userName;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserExists", SqlDbType.Int);
cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
cn.Open();
int x = (int)cmd.Parameters["@UserExists"].Value;
cn.Close();
return (x>1);
}  And the corresponding stored procedure: ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.mys_Spieler_ExistsPersonWithUserName
(
@UserName varchar(16),
@UserExists int OUTPUT
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT @UserExists = count(*)
FROM mys_Profiles
WHERE UserName = @UserName


RETURN

Stored Proc With Varchar Output Parameter

Nov 30, 2004

Hi Guys
I am wondering if you could spare some time and help me out with this puzzle.
I am new to this stuff so please take it easy on me.

I’m trying to create procedure which will take 2 input parameters and give me 1 back.
Originally there will be more outputs but for this training exercise 1 should do.
There are 2 tables as per diagram below and what I’m trying to do is
Verify username & password and pull out user group_name.

|---------------| |-----------------------|
| TBL_USERS | |TBL_USER_GROUPS|
|---------------| |-----------------------|
| USERNAME | /|GROUP_ID |
| PASSWORD | / |GROUP_NAME |
| GROUP_ID |< | |
|---------------| |-----------------------|

For my proc. I am using some ideas from this and some other sites, but obviously i've done something wrong.

'====================================================
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.try01
(
@UserName varchar(50),
@Password varchar(50),
@Group varchar Output
)

ON TBL_USERS.GROUP_ID = TBL_USER_GROUPS.GROUP_ID
WHERE (TBL_USERS.USERNAME = @UserName)
AND (TBL_USERS.PASSWORD = @Password)

and this is what i'm getting in VS.Net while trying to save.


'====================================================
ADO error: A select statement that assigns a value to variable must
not be combined with data-retrieval operation.
'====================================================


I did not see any samples on the net using ‘varchar’ as OUTPUT usually they where all ‘int’s. Could that be the problem?

Please help.

Capture Stored Proc Output To File

Jan 8, 2001

I am running a stored proc that does many updates. I want to capture the results of the stored proc in a text file. Results returned such as, 18 rows affected (the stuff that shows in results pane of query analyzer). Do I have to run the stored proc in batch mode to do this and capture via the output file in OSQL? I also want to capture error messages in case the stored proc aborts in the middle.

I am running SQL Server 7.0 SP2 on Win2K. I am running the stored proc in a DTS package.

Thanks.

Stored Proc Output Parameter To A Variable

Mar 16, 2006

I'm trying to call a stored procedure in an Execute SQL task which has several parameters. Four of the parameters are input from package variables. A fifth parameter is an output parameter and its result needs to be saved to a package variable.

Here is the entirety of the SQL in the SQLStatement property:
EXEC log_ItemAdd @Destination = 'isMedicalClaim', @ImportJobId = ?, @Started = NULL, @Status = 1, @FileType = ?, @FileName = ?, @FilePath = ?, @Description = NULL, @ItemId = ? OUTPUT;
I have also tried it like this:
EXEC log_ItemAdd 'isMedicalClaim', ?, NULL, 1, ?, ?, ?, NULL, ? OUTPUT;

Here are my Parameter Mappings:
Variable Name Direction Data Type Parameter Name
User::ImportJobId Input LONG 0
User::FileType Input LONG 1
User::FileName Input LONG 2
User::FilePath Input LONG 3
User::ImportId Output LONG 4

When this task is run, I get the following error:


0xC002F210 at [Task Name], Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "EXEC log_ItemAdd @Destination = 'isMedicalClaim', @ImportJobId = ?, @Started = NULL, @Status = 1, @FileType = ?, @FileName = ?, @FilePath = ?, @Description = NULL, @ItemId = ? OUTPUT" failed with the following error: "An error occurred while extracting the result into a variable of type (DBTYPE_I4)". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
The User::ImportId package variable is scoped to the package and I've given it data types from Byte through Int64. It always fails with the same error. I've also tried adjusting the Data Type on the Parameter Mapping, but nothing seems to work.
Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks.

Problem In Calling A Stored Proc With OUTPUT Parms

Sep 26, 2000

I have a problem in calling a procedure.
It has two input parameters and seven(7) output parms.

When I run it this way:

exec usp_List_Relationship_Users @relationship_id = 1851 ,
@status = 'Channel Member',
@cust_idOUTPUT,
@user_login_id OUTPUT,
@username OUTPUT,
@password OUTPUT,
@status_id OUTPUT,
@sdesc OUTPUT,
@administrator OUTPUT

I get this error:
Server: Msg 119, Level 15, State 1, Line 10
Must pass parameter number 3 and subsequent parameters as '@name = value'. After the form '@name = value' has been used, all subsequent parameters must be passed in the form '@name = value'.

But when I run it this way :
exec usp_List_Relationship_Users 1851 ,
'Channel Member',
@cust_idOUTPUT,
@user_login_id OUTPUT,
@username OUTPUT,
@password OUTPUT,
@status_id OUTPUT,
@sdesc OUTPUT,
@administrator OUTPUT

I get the expected results. Why should I omit the name of the name of the input parameters? I don't know why I am getting this error if don't run by ommitting the name of the input params.

Any help regarding this matter is greatlt appreciated.
You can assume that all the variables are declared prior to executing the stored procedure.

Stored Proc - Output Parameter Does Not Work With Nested Level

Apr 26, 2004

Anyone can help with this question: thanks

in a asp .net application, I call a stored procedure which have a output parameter.
the output parameter works find in sql session, but not in the asp .net application.

if I put select msg_out = "error message" in position A(see below for stored proc), it works fine
if I put them inside the if statement, the output parameter wont work in asp .net application, but fine in SQL session
The stored proc was created like this:

Create procedure XXXXXXX
(@msg_out varchar(80) OUTPUT
)
as
begin

while exists (*******)
begin
//position A
if certain condition
begin

select msg_out = "error message"
return 1
end

end


end


end

It seems to me that anything inside if - the second begin...end - it wont get executed.

Anyone has got a clue

Any help much appreciated!

Output And Error Output Write The Same Table At The Same Time, Stall The Process.

Aug 30, 2006

Hi

I have Lookup task to determine if source data should be updated to or insert to the customer table. After Lookup task, the Error Output pipeline will redirect to insert new data to the table and the Output pipeline will update customer table. But these two tasks will be processing at the same time which causes stall on the process. Never end.....

The job is similiart to what Slow Changing Dimention does but it won't update the table at the same time.

What can I do to avoid such situation?

However, when I try doing sample training material on SSIS, if I try to output to any type of destination output (flat file, excel, access, localhost SQL database) it always does a SQLDUMPER on me and never finishes....I always have to stop the debugger to get out of it.

What pointers can be given to troubleshoot symptoms given above ?

Unable To Manipulate The Xsl Output Encoding Type.

Feb 7, 2007

After generating one of my reports, I process the XML output through an XSLT stylesheet and export it to a text file. The issue is that after the export, the generated output text file begins with the special Byte-Order-Mark marker "EF BB BF" standard to Unicode files encoded in UTF-8, UTF-16 or UTF-32. I have explicitly set the attributes of the xsl output element to <xsl:output encoding="us-ascii" media-type="text/plain" method="text">, but it seems as though those are ignored when the output file is written. I cannot have these characters, because I am generating a fixed-width file for input into a legacy system.

Any suggestions or thoughts on what is causing the BOM to be written to my file, even though I have set the encoding to be different than UTF-8?

Scale Of Money Data Type In Output File

Jul 17, 2006

I have some data that I am outputting to a text file:

sum(sales)

where sales is datatype money. If I execute the query with query analyzer I get 4 decimals, but when it is output to a text file it rounds the number

Grid Text File
2182035.9600 2182035.96
961799.2400 961799.24
22104768.1850 22104768.185

If I do cast or convert it to money it does the same thing.

It really doesn't make a material difference for its intended use but I would like to keep it consistent with 4 decimals.

Execute Sql Task To Set Output Parameter Of Type Integer

Jun 1, 2006

I'm having a heckuva time with creating output parameters based on a query.

Here's what I'm doing. Every day, we copy rows from our mysql table to our sql server table. We only want to copy those rows that are new, so as to not have to recopy the entire table.

So I have a DataReader Source set to Ado.net/odbc provider that connects to the mysql db.
The destination is an OLE connection to the local sql server.

I create an Execute SQL Task.
The connection is set to the OLE connection
The type is direct input
The SQL Statement is "select max(id) from copy_table"

In Parameter Mapping, I create a user variable called maxId that is an int64. That variable is now used as the Variable Name. The Direction is Output. The Parameter Name is 0.

Whatever data type I use for the mapping does not work with the variable type. If the parameter was set to ULARGE_INTEGER, here's the error
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "SELECT MAX(stats_id) AS max_id FROM copy_table" failed with the following error: "Type name is invalid.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

If parameter is set to LONG:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "maxId": "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::maxId" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. ".

I found that if variable and parameter were dates to use datetime for the variable and DBTIMESTAMP for the parameter.

There are an awful lot of combinations between all the possible variable types, and the possible parameter types. Does anyone know the secret combination for your typical integer?

Thanks,
