Stored Procedure - Variable Number Of Parameters For Search
Dec 4, 2003
Hi,
I have a repeater control which I populate with search results from SQL Server.
But I can't figure out how to cope with users who submit multiple search items and still use my stored procedure. Is this possible or do you have to build the query with a StringBuilder and execute it manually?
I'm using a stored procedure with parameters:
input parameters <-- PageSize & CurrentPage
output parameter --> TotalRecords
Am using a temporary table to store all records before Select-ing those required for the particular page.
If I compose the query manually then I can't figure out how to get TotalRecords back as a return parameter. Would appreciate help on this one.
Am hoping that stored procedures can cope with an unknown number of parameters.
I am fairly new to MSSQL. Looking for a answer to a simple question.
I have a application which passes in lot of stuff from the UI into a stored procedure that has to be inserted into a MSSQL 2005 database. All the information that is passed will be spilt into 4 inserts hitting 4 seperate tables. All 4 inserts will be part of a stored procedure that have to be in one TRANSACTION. All but one insert are straight forward.
The structure of this table is something like
PKID customerID email address .....
customerID is not unique and can have n email addresses passed in. Each entry into this table when inserted into, will be passed n addresses (The number of email addresses passed is controlled by the user. It can be from 1..n). Constructing dynamic SQL is not an option. The SP to insert all the data is already in place. Typically I would just create the SP with IN parameters that I will use to insert into tables. In this case I can't do that since the number of email addresses passed is dynamic. My question is what's the best way to design this SP, where n email addresses are passed and each of them will have to be passed into a seperate insert statement? I can think of two ways to this...
Is there a way to create a variable length array as a IN parameter to capture the n email addresses coming in and use them to construct multiple insert statements?
Is it possible to get all the n email addresses as a comma seperated string? I know this is possible, but I am not sure how to parse this string and capture the n email addresses into variables before I construct them into insert statements.
I have a problem regarding forwarding 'n number of parameters' from Visual Studio 2005 using VB to SQL-Server 2005 stored procedure.I have to save N number of rows in my stored procedure as a transaction. If all rows are not saved successfully, I have to roll-back else update some other table also after that. I am unable to handle - How to send variable number of parameters from Visual Stduio to Sql - Server ? My requirement is to use the SQL-Stored Procedure to store all the rows in the base table and related tables and then update one another table based on the updations done. Please Help .....
I have received a change request for a project i am working on which im unsure if possible or not.
at the minute i have a very simple sp that simply selects data from a table by passing in one parameter
CREATE PROCEDURE PHAR_SelectGrade
@int_ID int
AS
SELECT GradeID as ID, Grade as Description, RequiresText, SendEmail, Timestamp FROM tbl8Grade WHERE Obsolete=0 AND GradeID = @int_ID ORDER BY Grade
the user now wants the option to select more than one grade type (there are 100's of different grades)
so they might decide they want to see details for 2 grades, 22 grades etc. these would be selected and stored in an array (via an asp.net project) and then the stored procedure is called from within a web service
my question is how would i pass this array into the stored procedure??
i am assuming i would need to do something as follows for sp syntax, but im stumped on how i pass my array of values into the sp from the webservice and then for the sp to read the array in SQL??
CREATE PROCEDURE PHAR_SelectGrade
@myArray <what datatype?>
AS
SELECT GradeID as ID, Grade as Description, RequiresText, SendEmail, Timestamp FROM tbl8Grade WHERE Obsolete=0 AND GradeID IN (@myArray) ORDER BY Grade
any ideas are greatly appreciated. or maybe its just not possible?!?
Hi I want to give the user the ability to search based on a number of criteria, however i do not know how to build my statement properly this is what i have so far; ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[stream_StoreFind] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @StoreName varchar(250),@subCategoryID INT AS SELECT Stores.StoreName ,StoreCategories.storeIDFROM Stores INNER JOIN StoreCategoriesON Stores.storeID = StoreCategories.storeID INNER JOIN SubCategories ON StoreCategories.subCategoryID = SubCategories.subCategoryID WHERE
My problem is how will i pass the parameters into the statement, taking into fact that sometimes they may be optional. Thank you
I have a web page which passes back parameters to a stored procedure. From the web page the user selects different clauses for the 'where' criteria. Based upon the number of clause items in the parameters sent back, a select statement is built and executed. In the stored procedure I have many if statements to chose the correct sql statement. As the no of clauses in the where statement can vary, it can become messy script. Has anyone dealt with this scenario. What is the best strategy ?
A simple illustation of this is as follows A statement with two clauses :-
Select * from Sales where user = 'John' and country = 'England' A statement with three clauses :- Select * from Sales where user = 'John' and country = 'England' and County = 'Staffordshire'
The stored procedure would except three parameters and would build a string based on the number of actual where clases sent back
Can a Sql Server SP have variable number of arguments??? If yes, can somebody point me to a resource demonstrating that??? I need to send variable number of arguments to some of my SPs & iterate them with either foreach or traditional for loop. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
If variable number of arguments are not feasible, then can I pass them as an array to the SP (again a Sample code would be desirable)???
select * from posts where id = @id and author =@author and message like @keyword
in my case a user can choose to search by one or more of this elements.
what will be the best approach to write a statement that will account for the posibility of the user leaving some "parameters" empty, while also allowing for the posibility that all parameters could be filled
one approach I have thought out is this
if (@id IS NOT null) select * from posts where id = @id
if (@author IS NOT null) select * from posts where author= @author
if (@keyword IS NOT null) select * from posts where keyword = (@keyword
but this does not really take care of the posibility that all of them or some of them will be null while others will not
Hi - I'm short of SQL experience and hacking my way through creating a simple search feature for a personal project. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me out with writing a stored procedure. Problem: I have two tables with three columns indexed for full-text search. So far I have been able to successfully execute the following query returning matching row ids: dbo.Search_Articles @searchText varchar(150) AS SELECT ArticleID FROM articles WHERE CONTAINS(Description, @searchText) OR CONTAINS(Title, @searchText) UNION SELECT ArticleID FROM article_pages WHERE CONTAINS(Text, @searchText); RETURN This returns the ArticleID for any articles or article_pages records where there is a text match. I ultimately need the stored procedure to return all columns from the articles table for matches and not just the StoryID. Seems like maybe I should try using some kind of JOIN on the result of the UNION above and the articles table? But I have so far been unable to figure out how to do this as I can't seem to declare a name for the result table of the UNION above. Perhaps there is another more eloquent solution? Thanks! Peter
Hi all, From the "How to Call a Parameterized Stored Procedure by Using ADO.NET and Visual Basic.NET" in http://support.microsft.com/kb/308049, I copied the following code to a project "pubsTestProc1.vb" of my VB 2005 Express Windows Application:

I am having to debug a procedure that is called by a control in javascript that I do not have any control over accept for setting the procedure name to call.
I matched my parameters to my procedure to what I define as the parameters list, but somehow I keep getting a too many parameters specified.
If I had control over it in C# it would be easy to select which params are actually being sent, but I would like to give a procedure name to call and I can log the parameters sent somewhere.how to do.
I'm new to SSIS, but have been programming in SQL and ASP.Net for several years. In Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition I've created an SSIS that imports data from a flat file into the database. The original process worked, but did not check the creation date of the import file. I've been asked to add logic that will check that date and verify that it's more recent than a value stored in the database before the import process executes.
Here are the task steps.
[Execute SQL Task] - Run a stored procedure that checks to see if the import is running. If so, stop execution. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
[Execute SQL Task] - Log an entry to a table indicating that the import has started.
[Script Task] - Get the create date for the current flat file via the reference provided in the file connection manager. Assign that date to a global value (FileCreateDate) and pass it to the next step. This works.
[Execute SQL Task] - Compare this file date with the last file create date in the database. This is where the process breaks. This step depends on 2 variables defined at a global level. The first is FileCreateDate, which gets set in step 3. The second is a global variable named IsNewFile. That variable needs to be set in this step based on what the stored procedure this step calls finds out on the database. Precedence constraints direct behavior to the next proper node according to the TRUE/FALSE setting of IsNewFile.
If IsNewFile is FALSE, direct the process to a step that enters a log entry to a table and conclude execution of the SSIS.
If IsNewFile is TRUE, proceed with the import. There are 5 other subsequent steps that follow this decision, but since those work they are not relevant to this post. Here is the stored procedure that Step 4 is calling. You can see that I experimented with using and not using the OUTPUT option. I really don't care if it returns the value as an OUTPUT or as a field in a recordset. All I care about is getting that value back from the stored procedure so this node in the decision tree can point the flow in the correct direction.
The SSIS package passes the FileCreateDate parameter to this procedure, which then compares that parameter with the date saved in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
If the date is newer (or if there is no date), it updates the field in that table and returns a TRUE IsNewFile bit value in a recordset.
Otherwise it returns a FALSE value in the IsNewFile column.
SELECT @CreateDateInTable = FileCreateDate FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
IF EXISTS (SELECT ProcessName FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName)
BEGIN
-- The process exists in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Compare the create dates.
IF (@FileCreateDate > @CreateDateInTable)
BEGIN
-- This is a newer file date. Update the table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
UPDATE tbl_ImportFileCreateDate
SET FileCreateDate = @FileCreateDate
WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- The file date is the same or older.
SET @IsNewFile = 0
END
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- This is a new process for tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Add a record to that table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportFileCreateDate (ProcessName, FileCreateDate)
VALUES (@ProcessName, @FileCreateDate)
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
SELECT @IsNewFile
The relevant Global Variables in the package are defined as follows: Name : Scope : Date Type : Value FileCreateDate : (Package Name) : DateType : 1/1/2000 IsNewFile : (Package Name) : Boolean : False
Setting the properties in the "Execute SQL Task Editor" has been the difficult part of this. Here are the settings.
General Name = Compare Last File Create Date Description = Compares the create date of the current file with a value in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. TimeOut = 0 CodePage = 1252 ResultSet = None ConnectionType = OLE DB Connection = MyServerDataBase SQLSourceType = Direct input IsQueryStoredProcedure = False BypassPrepare = True
I tried several SQL statements, suspecting it's a syntax issue. All of these failed, but with different error messages. These are the 2 most recent attempts based on posts I was able to locate. SQLStatement = exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output SQLStatement = exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
Parameter Mapping Variable Name = User::FileCreateDate, Direction = Input, DataType = DATE, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = -1 Variable Name = User::IsNewFile, Direction = Output, DataType = BYTE, Parameter Name = 1, Parameter Size = -1
Result Set is empty. Expressions is empty.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the following error message appears.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x4004300A at Import data from flat file to tbl_GLImport, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning.
Error: 0xC002F210 at Compare Last File Create Date, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output" failed with the following error: "No value given for one or more required parameters.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Task failed: Compare Last File Create Date
Warning: 0x80019002 at GLImport: SSIS Warning Code DTS_W_MAXIMUMERRORCOUNTREACHED.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
When the above is run tbl_ImportFileCreateDate does not get updated, so it's failing at some point when calling the procedure.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the tbl_ImportFileCreateDate table gets updated. So I know that data piece is working, but then it fails with the following message.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x4004300A at Import data from flat file to tbl_GLImport, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
The IsNewFile global variable is scoped at the package level and has a Boolean data type, and the Output parameter in the stored procedure is defined as a Bit. So what gives?
The "Possible Failure Reasons" message is so generic that it's been useless to me. And I've been unable to find any examples online that explain how to do what I'm attempting. This would seem to be a very common task. My suspicion is that one or more of the settings in that Execute SQL Task node is bad. Or that there is some cryptic, undocumented reason that this is failing.
Hi,I'm using c# with a tableadapter to call stored procedures. I'm running into a problem where if I have over a certain byte size or number of parameters being passed into my stored proc I get an exception that reads: "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized." If I remove one parameter, the problem goes away. Has anyone run into this before? Thanks,Mark

The above stored procedure is related to a search screen where in User is able to search from a variety of fields that include userID (corresponding column Batch.Created_By) and batchID (corresponding column Batch.BatchID). The column UserID is a varchar whereas batchID is a numeric. REQUIREMENT: The stored procedure should cater to a typical search where any of the fields can be entered. meanwhile it also should be able to do a partial search on BatchID and UserID.
Hello, I am hoping there is a solution within SQL that work for this instead of making round trips from the front end. I have a stored procedure that is called from the front-end(USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency) that accepts two parameters and returns one column of data possibly several rows. I have a second stored procedure(USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool) that accepts the previous stored procedures return values. What I would like to do is call the first stored procedure from the front end and return the results from the second stored procedure. Since it's likely I will have more than row of data, can I loop the second passing each value returned from the first? The Stored Procs are: CREATE PROCEDURE USP_DistinctBalancePoolByCompanyCurrency @CID int, @CY char(3) AS SELECT Distinct S.BalancePoolName FROM SiteRef S INNER JOIN Account A ON A.PoolId=S.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AB ON A.Id = AB.AccountId Inner JOIN AccountPool AP On AP.Id=A.PoolId Where A.CompanyId=@CID And AB.Currency=@CY
CREATE PROCEDURE USP_BalanceDateByAccountPool @PoolName varchar(50) AS Declare @DT datetime Select @DT= (Select MAX(AccountBalance.DateX) From Company Company INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName) SELECT SiteRef.BalancePoolName, AccountBalance.DateX, AccountBalance.Balance FROM Company Company INNER JOIN Account Account ON Company.Id = Account.CompanyId INNER JOIN SiteRef SiteRef ON Account.PoolId = SiteRef.ID Inner JOIN AccountBalance AccountBalance ON Account.Id = AccountBalance.AccountId WHERE SiteRef.BalancePoolName = @PoolName And AccountBalance.DateX = @DT Order By AccountBalance.DateX DESC

I have a text box on my web form where the user can enter multiple comma delimited search words. The value from this text box goes to my search stored procedure in the form of a search string.
I am able to parse this comma delimited search string and get the words into a temp table.
If there are 2 words in the temp table then this is the sql that I want
select * from Items where (description like word1 or tagnumber like word1 or user like word1) and (description like word2 or tagnumber like word2 or user like word2)
description,tagnumber, user or the fields of the Items table.There could be any number of words in the search string.
Any ideas of how to get this done with any number of search words being matched against number of column/s.
I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...

I have a few textboxes on a page that I would like to use as a search page and have clients shown in a gridview that meet the users entry into one or more of the textboxes. I have ClientID, LastName, FirstName, Address, and Keywords. How would I build a stored procedure to allow me to do this?
Hello, Is it possible to search in two tables, let's say table # 1 in specific field e.g. (age). If that field is empty then retrieve the data from table #1, if not retrieve the data from table # 2. Is it possible to do it by using SQL Stored Procedure?? Thank you
I have a store procedure that search by Firstname and Lastname. I want it search by either both (Firstname and Lastname) or any of them. For example if only FirstName passes to it shows all the record with that Fistname. Currently I have to pass both Firstname and Lastname to my store proc to get the result.
This is my stor proc:
USE [CustomerPortal] GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CSA_Search_Customer_By_Name]
Hi Guys, I hope someone here can help me. I am writing a stored procedure that simply searches for a given value across multiple databases on the same server. So far all well and good.Now, the problem is if the user types in more than one word into the search field.I have put a partial section of code here, there is obviously more, but most of it you wouldn't need to see. SELECT @sql = N'SELECT @count = COUNT('+ @dbname +'.dbo.orders.order_id) FROM '+ @dbname +'.dbo.orders '+ N' INNER JOIN '+ @dbname +'.dbo.customer ON '+ @dbname +'.dbo.orders.cust_id = '+ @dbname +'.dbo.customer.cust_id '+ N' WHERE '+ @dbname +'.dbo.customer.forename LIKE ''%'+ @SearchStr + '%'' OR '+ @dbname +'.dbo.customer.Surname LIKE ''%'+ @SearchStr + '%'''
EXEC sp_executesql @sql, N'@count int OUTPUT', @count = @results OUTPUT Now this code works perfectly well if the user only enters one word, however i need to make sure that the Stored procedure will function if the user enters 2 words, such as John Smith. I need the procedure to search the forename for 'john' & 'Smith' and the same for the surname. It should also work if the user type 'John Michael Smith' - if you understand.I am really struggling with this one.Thanks in advance.Darren
I am trying to inject dynamically generated text into a Sql2000 stored procedure. What am I doing wrong?A code behind routine generates the following string value based on a visitor entering 'sail boats' in TextBox1. The routine splits the entry and creates the below string.Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%sail%' AND Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%boats%' I am trying to place this string result in the WHERE statement of a Sql2000 Stored Procedure using parameter @VisitorKeywords. PROCEDURE dbo.KWsearchAS SELECT DISTINCT Companies.L_Name, Companies.L_ID, Companies.L_EnabledWHERE ( @visitorKeywords ) AND (Companies.L_Enabled = 1)ORDER BY Companies.L_Name I am wanting the resulting WHERE portion to be: WHERE ( Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%sail%' AND Companies.L_Keywords LIKE '%boats%' ) AND (Companies.L_Enabled = 1) Thank you
Hi, I have a MSDE datatable which containes Documents and a link to thet document. Is there any way i can search the doument name colunm using a search box from my web site and display the results. I have seen all these "stored procedure" discussions and just wonder whether it would be easy to search using the stored procedure? I haven't got much experience using MSDE and it seems really a big task for me. Any help/suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks, RAJESH
