Hi,
here is the code segment below;
...
DECLARE find_dates CURSOR FOR
SELECT @SQL = 'select DISTINC(Dates) from ['+@name+'].dbo.['+@t_name+'] order by [Dates] ASC'
EXEC (@SQL)
but it gives error, variable assignment is not allowed in a cursor declaration. I need to use dynamic SQL , the only way to access all the dbs and their tables inside. Please help.
thanks

While working for a client on a SQL Server 6.5 SP5a, I got the following error when running the code below in first SQL Enterprise Manager 6.5 and then SQL Query Analyzer 7.0:
IF @Departures = 1
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR
FOR SELECT AcType,
BackPax = CASE BackPax
WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BackPax END,
BestPax = CASE BestPax
WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BestPax END,
DepTime,
FlightNumber,
ArrStn
FROM #TimeCall
ORDER BY DepTime, FlightNumber
ELSE
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR
FOR SELECT AcType,
BackPax = CASE BackPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BackPax END,
BestPax = CASE BestPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BestPax END,
ArrTime,
FlightNumber,
DepStn
FROM #TimeCall
ORDER BY ArrTime, FlightNumber
And the error I get when the query is run for the first time after switching tool:
Server: Msg 202, Level 11, State 2, Procedure CreateFile, Line 178
Internal error -- Unable to open table at query execution time.
Server: Msg 202, Level 11, State 1, Procedure CreateFile, Line 188
Internal error -- Unable to open table at query execution time.
If I run the query again in one of the tools, it works. It also works if I use WITH RECOMPILE in the stored proc header.
If I use the code below, it also works, and without RECOMPILE:
DECLARE @SqlStr varchar( 255 )
IF @Departures = 1
SELECT @SqlStr = 'DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR ' +
'FOR SELECT AcType, ' +
'BackPax = CASE BackPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BackPax END, ' +
'BestPax = CASE BestPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BestPax END, ' +
'DepTime, FlightNumber, ArrStn ' +
'FROM #TimeCall ORDER BY DepTime, FlightNumber'
ELSE
SELECT @SqlStr = 'DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR ' +
'FOR SELECT AcType, ' +
'BackPax = CASE BackPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BackPax END, ' +
'BestPax = CASE BestPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BestPax END, ' +
'ArrTime, FlightNumber, DepStn ' +
'FROM #TimeCall ORDER BY ArrTime, FlightNumber'
EXECUTE( @SqlStr )
Trying to get around the problem with the following code did not do any good:
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT AcType,
BackPax = CASE BackPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BackPax END,
BestPax = CASE BestPax WHEN NULL THEN 0 ELSE BestPax END,
CurTime = CASE @Departures
WHEN 1 THEN DepTime
ELSE ArrTime END,
FlightNumber,
OtherStation = CASE @Departures
WHEN 1 THEN ArrStn
ELSE DepStn END
FROM #TimeCall
ORDER BY CurTime, FlightNumber
Server: Msg 202, Level 11, State 2, Procedure CreateFile, Line 176
Internal error -- Unable to open table at query execution time.
Anyone have some good ideas on why this happens?

Hello everybody!I have a small table "ABC" like this:id_position | value---------------------------1 | 112 | 223 | 33I try to use a dynamic cursor as below.When the statement "order by id_position" in declare part of the cursor_abcis omitted - cursor work as it should.But when the statement "order by id_position" is used, cursor behave asstatic one.What's the matter, does anybody know?Code:declare @id_position as int, @value as intDECLARE cursor_abc CURSORFORselect id_position, value from abcorder by id_positionset nocount onopen cursor_abcFETCH NEXT FROM cursor_abcINTO @id_position, @valueWHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGINprint @id_positionprint @valueprint '----------------------------'update abc set value=666 --next reading should give value=666FETCH NEXT FROM cursor_abcINTO @id_position, @valueENDCLOSE cursor_abcDEALLOCATE cursor_abcGORegardsLucas
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some stored procedure and there is a cursor inside it. I added some new columns to the table and those columns I included in the cursor declaration and fetch statement. In the cursor declaration I forgot to add comma (,) in between the new columns. So SQL Server it considers as a alias name for that column so syntactically it is correct. But logically in the cursor declaration having less number of columns than the columns in the fetch statement. So it should throw an error. But the procedure is getting compiled without raising any error. But if I execute the procedure that time it is throwing the error.
For example, below I have given the sample procedure. In this procedure, in the cursor declaration I removed the comma (,) between DOB and DOJ. If I compile this procedure it is getting compiled. But when execute that time only it is throwing the error. So I am interested in if any option is available to know the error in the compilation time itself.
ALTER PROCEDURE Test
AS
BEGIN
BEGIN TRY
DECLARE @empId INT,
@fname VARCHAR(50),
@dob DATE,
@doj DATE

How do you assign the value returned by a stored procedure to a declared variable and then display the value of that declared variable?
The following does not work:
declare @variable int
set @variable = stored_procedure
...
...
show value of @variable?? <HOW>
Sorry for the stupid questions but I am new to SQL in general.
hi,
i am new to sql server...
i have used @ symbol for declaring local variables in stored procedure....
The symbol @@ is there....where to use and what is the purpose of using that symbol...
could anyone tell...
thanks

I have to write a query for printing multiple barcodes, depending on the quantity of items that came in the store, based on the order number.
DECLARE @num INT
SELECT BarCodes.BarCode, BarCodes.ArticleID, ArticlesTrafic.DocumentID, ArticlesTrafic.TrafficQuantity
FROM BarCodes INNER JOIN
Articles ON BarCodes.ArticleID = Articles.ArticleID INNER JOIN
getAutoNumberTable(@num) ON @num=ArticlesTrafic.TrafficQuantity
WHERE (ArticlesTrafic.DocumentID = @Param2)
The thing i would like to do, is somehow assign a value to @num and pass it to the getAutoNumberTable stored procedure, which generates a table of consequtive numbers, so that each record is displayed multiple times. Is it even possible to do it without using temp tables and loops?
I'm wondering if there's a way to pass a variable to assigning a decimal datatype;
declare @intPrecision int
set @intPrecision = 3
declare @decVariable decimal(38, @intPrecision)
I've basically been given the task by my mentor to create a script to round a decimal to a given number of decimal places.
ie; 1234.56789; 2 dp => 1234.57 and not 1234.57000
Any advice would be great.
I am reviewing some code we have inherited (riddled with multiple nested cursors) and in the process of re-writing some of the code. I came across this and it has me puzzled.
As I understand it, if you declare a variable and then try to re-declare a variable of the same name an error is generated. If I do this inside a While loop this does not seem to be the case. What ever is assigned is kept and just added to (in the case of a table variable)
I understand things are in scope for the batch currently running but I would expect an error to return (example 1 and 2)
--Table var declaration in loop
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @looper INT = 0
WHILE @looper <= 10
BEGIN
DECLARE @ATable TABLE ( somenumber INT )
[Code] ....
I have the following lines embedded in a stored procedure
---
----
----
select @querystr = "select @lkinpos = pos_lkin_pos from "+@database+" where pos_clnt_id = "+str(@clntid)+" and pos_isin ="+"'"+ @isinno+"'"
print @querystr
exec(@querystr)
---
---
---
When i execute the above stored procedure, it returns an error as follows:
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Must declare the variable '@lkinpos'.
When i see the print @querystr statement, it returns the query str as follows:
select @lkinpos = pos_lkin_pos from nsdldpm..pos_mstr where pos_clnt_id = 10000045 and pos_isin ='ine227a01011'
This when executed independently, gives me the required output.
Can anybody solve this for me?
Thanks in advance

Is there a way to write such a query where we can declare the variable dynamically ? Currently I am using the query as shown below :
declare @pYear_Internal as NVarchar(100)
set @pYear_Internal = [D FISCALPERIOD].[FP CODE].[FP CODE]
WITH
MEMBER MEASURES.[REVENUE] AS [Measures].[TOTAL REVENUE]
SET LAST5YEARS AS STRTOMEMBER(@pYear_Internal).Lag(4) : STRTOMEMBER(@pYear_Internal)
[code]....
While executing the above query, getting the error - Query (1, 9) Parser: The syntax for '@pYear_Internal' is incorrect. Â It looks like it doesn't recognize DECLARE keyword as it does with SQL queries. Â I just want a query that runs directly against the server.Â
I've been curious why some variables don't need to be declared with a value type in a stored procedure. Please see the example below in the bolded area. The stored procedure works fine - nothing is wrong with it, but I just wanted an explanation on why and when is a value type not needed for a variable.
CREATE PROCEDURE [DBO].[EmailRpt]
(
@TagDest char(2) = NULL,
@DateWanted smalldatetime = NULL,
@CustName varchar(64) = NULL,
@AcctID AcctId = NULL,
@ContactPhn phone = NULL,
@CustAddr address = NULL,
@City city,
@CrossSt varchar(50) ,
@Access varchar(50) = NULL,
@Activity tinyint,
)
AS
DECLARE @String as varchar(2000),
@Header as varchar(200),
@MailBox as varchar(50),
@ActivityName as Name,
@Return as int,
@UserName as Name

We
have one main package from which 7 other child packages are called. We are using
ParentPackage variables to assign values for variables and database connections.
While the values from ParentPackage variable get assigned to some of the
packages properly, to others it doesn€™t assign the value.
For example:
Except for one of the packages the database connection string gets assigned
properly to all other packages.
Similarly, in another package one of the
variables doesn€™t get assigned. In other packages it is assigned properly.
We
have checked all the other property values and they are exactly the same.
We cannot make any head or tail of this erratic behavior.
Please Help.
I'm not sure about this one so if someone could help I'd appreciate this.
As shown below I've declared a variable name1 to be used in a while statement substituting for an object name in a select statement (2000 SP3a)

if i have the cursor
cursor:
cursor for
select name
from sysobjects
where type='P' AND category='0'
and wants a variable before sysobjects which equals a table name, so itll be:
cursor for
select name
from @variable..sysobjects
where type='P' AND category='0'
how do i include a variable within a cursor statement
Hello All,Is there a T-SQL equivalent of the PL/SQL cursor rowtype datatype ?Thanks in advance
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently using a cursor to scroll through sysobjects to extract table names and then extracting relevant column names from syscolumns.
I then need to run the following script:
declare Detail_Cursor cursor for
select @colname, max(len(@colname)) from @table
The message I receive is "must declare variable @table".
Immediately prior to this script I printed out the result of @table which works fine so the variable obviously is declared and populated.
Can anyone let me know what I'm doing wrong or how I can get the same result.
Thanks
Hi All,
What i am trying to do is concatenate variable "@Where" with CURSOR sql statement,inside a procedure . But, it doesn't seem to get the value for
the @Where. (I tried with DEBUGGING option of Query Analyzer also).
=============================================
SET @Where = ''
if IsNull(@Input1,NULL) <> NULL
Set @Where = @Where + " AND studentid='" + @input1 +"'"
if isnull(@Input2,NULL) <> NULL
Set @Where = @Where + " AND teacherid =' " + @Input2 +"'"
DECLARE curs1 CURSOR SCROLL
FOR SELECT
firstname
FROM
school
WHERE
school ='ABC' + @where
=============================================
Please check my SQL Above and Could somebody tell me how can I attach the VARIABLE with CURSOR sql statement ?
Thanks !
Hi,
I have a problem on setting the value for the variable in a declared cursor. Below is my example, I have declared the cursor c1 once at the top in a stored procedure and open it many times in a loop by setting the variable @str_var to different values. It seems the variable cannot be set after the cursor declared. Please advise how can I solve this issue.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @str_var VARCHAR(10)
DECLARE @field_val VARCHAR(10)
DECLARE c1 CURSOR LOCAL FOR
SELECT field1 FROM tableA WHERE field1 = @str_var
WHILE (Sometime TRUE)
BEGIN
....
SET @str_var = 'set to some values, eg. ABC123, XYZ123'
OPEN c1
FETCH c1 INTO @field_val
WHILE (@@fetch_status != -1)
BEGIN
PRINT @field_val
...
FETCH c1 INTO @field_val
END
CLOSE c1
END
DEALLOCATE c1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks a lots,
Vincent

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I need a small help. In my stored procedure, i create a table variable and fill it with records based on my query. The ID field within the table is not continous and can have any value in increasing order .e.g. The ID sequence may be like 20, 33, 34, 59, 78, 79... I want to iterate through each record within the table but without using a Cursor. I want to use a loop for this purpose. There are many articles pointing out how to iterate through records in a table variable but that requires the IDs to be continous which is not possible in my case. Can anyone help me solve this problem...
Any help is appreciated...
When I execute next query on sqlserver 6.5 nested in stored procedure I can see that 'open testCursor' selected rows using new value of @var. When I execute query on sqlserver 7.0 I can see that 'open testCursor' selected rows using value of @var before 'declare ... cursor'. Is there any way to force sqlserver 7.0 to proccess cursor like it did it before.
select @var = oldValue
declare testCursor cursor
for select someColumns
from someTable
where someColumn = @var
select @var = newValue
open testCursor
fetch next from testCursor into @someColumns
Thank's in advance.
Mirko.
I'm trying to build a select statement for a CURSOR where part of the SQL statement is built using a variable.
The following fails to parse:
Declare Cursor1 Cursor
For
'select table_name from ' + @database + '.Information_Schema.Tables Where Table_Type = ''Base Table'' order by Table_Name'
Open cursor1
That doesn't work, I've also tried using an Execute() statement, no luck there either. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to get a cursor to work when I'm passing in a variable for a column name of the select statement. For example:
declare @col varchar(50)
set @col = 'Temperature'
declare notifycurs cursor scroll for
select @col from Table
Obviously this won't work correctly (since the result will simply be 'Temperature' instead of the actual float value for temperature). I tried to use quotes for the entire statement with an EXEC
(ie. exec('select '+@col+' from Table' )
but that gave me an error.
Is there a way to pass in a variable for a column name for a curor select statement????
I'm trying something like:
UPDATE tbl SET @varFieldName = @varValue
The procedure runs, and when I PRINT @varFieldName, it looks fine, but the table isn't getting updated, and no errors, wierd.
I have the CURSOR open for update, but I didn't list the field names, that shouldn't be a problem, as all fields should be updateable then.
To get the field name, I :
SET @varFieldName = 'SomeChars' + LTRIM(STR(asmallint)) + 'SomeMoreChars'
Thanks,
Carl
