MS SQL Server :: Function Inside A Select Statement

Counter Inside Select Statement?
Hi, can you add a counter inside a select statement to get a unique id line of the rows?
In my forum i have a page that displays a users past posts in the forum, these are first sorted according to their topicID and then they are sorted after creation date. What i want is in the select statement is to create a counter to get a new numeric order.
This is the normal way:
SELECT id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID) ... some more where/order by statements
This is what i want:
DECLARE @tempCounter bigintSET @tempCounter = 0SELECT @tempCounter, id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID)... some more where/order by statements and at the end.. (SELECT @tempCounter = @tempCounter + 1)
Anyone know if this can be done?

Declare Inside Select Statement?
I have a need to execute a cursor inside a select statment, but I'm having problems figuring this out. The reason this need to be inside a select statement is that I am inserting the cursor logic into a query expression in PeopleSoft Query.

So! Here's the statement that works:

======================
DECLARE @fixeddate datetime
DECLARE @CVG_ELECT char(1)
DECLARE @Effdt datetime
DECLARE EFFDTS CURSOR FOR
SELECT Z.EFFDT, COVERAGE_ELECT
FROM PS_LIFE_ADD_BEN Z
WHERE Z.EMPLID = '1000'
AND Z.EFFDT <=
GETDATE()
AND Z.PLAN_TYPE = '20'
ORDER BY Z.EFFDT DESC
OPEN EFFDTS
FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
if @CVG_ELECT <> 'E'
break
ELSE
SET @fixeddate = @Effdt
FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT
END

CLOSE EFFDTS
DEALLOCATE EFFDTS
PRINT @fixeddate

======================
If I execute this in SQL Query Analyzer it gives me the data I am looking for. However, if I try to paste this into a select statement, it goes boom (actually, it says "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'.", but you get the idea).

Is it possible to encapsulate this inside a select statement?

Select Case Inside Sql Statement ?

findingcinemaid(cinemaname)

case 5

cinemaname = "TEBRAU CITY"
findingcinemaid(cinemaname)

case 6

cinemaname = "SUNWAY PYRAMID"
findingcinemaid(cinemaname)

case 7

cinemaname = "SURIA KLCC"
findingcinemaid(cinemaname)

end select

any possible way I can merge this select case statement with the sql statement ? I try if else but too many code , defeating the original purpose of simplfying it

Function Used Twice In Select Statement
Hi,

I've got a complex UDF I need to call twice in a select statement, as shown below:

SELECT

dbo.myFunction(colName),
dbo.myFunction(colName) * 2
FROM

tableName

The problem is, the result of "dbo.myFunction(colName)" is not being cached, so the function is executed again for "dbo.myFunction(colName) * 2". This is having a significant impact on performance (doubling the amount of time it takes for the query to execute).

Is there any way I can write the query so that dbo.myFunction is only executed once?

Thanks for your help,

Andrew

Aggregate Function For Select Statement Result?
Ok, for a bunch of cleanup that i am doing with one of my Portal Modules, i need to do some pretty wikid conversions from multi-view/stored procedure calls and put them in less spid calls.

currently, we have a web graph that is hitting the sql server some 60+ times with data queries, and lets just say, thats not good. so far i have every bit of data that i need in a pretty complex sql call, now there is only one thing left to do.

Problem:
i need to call an aggregate count on the results of another aggregate function (sum) with a group by.

*ex: select count(select sum(Sales) from ActSales Group by SalesDate) from ActSales

This is seriously hurting me, because from everything i have tried, i keep getting an error at the second select in that statement. is there anotherway without using views or stored procedures to do this? i want to imbed this into my mega sql statement so i am only hitting the server up with one spid.

thanks,

EXEC Inside CASE Inside SELECT
I'm trying to execute a stored procedure within the case clause of select statement.
The stored procedure returns a table, and is pretty big and complex, and I don't particularly want to copy the whole thing over to work here. I'm looking for something more elegant.

@val1 and @val2 are passed in

CREATE TABLE #TEMP(
tempid INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
myint INT NOT NULL,
mybool BIT NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #TEMP (myint, mybool)
SELECT my_int_from_tbl,
CASE WHEN @val1 IN (SELECT val1 FROM (EXEC dbo.my_stored_procedure my_int_from_tbl, my_param)) THEN 1 ELSE 0
FROM dbo.tbl
WHERE tbl.val2 = @val2

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM #TEMP WHERE mybool = 1

If I have to, I can do a while loop and populate another temp table for every "my_int_from_tbl," but I don't really know the syntax for that.

Any suggestions?

Problems With ABS() Function Inside Sub Query (within WHERE-Clause)
Hello,

when trying to execute the following query with SQL CE 3.1 and OLEDB on WM2003:

SELECT C.Panel_Id, C.Panel_Tier, C.Panel_Type, C.Panel_No, C.Panel_Position
FROM tblMeasurements AS A, tblAssignment_Ant_Pan AS B, tblPanels AS C
WHERE (A.Measurement_No=?) AND (A.Antenna_No = B.Antenna_No) AND (B.Panel_Id = C.Panel_Id) AND C.Panel_Position in
(SELECT Panel_Position FROM tblMeasurement_Results
WHERE (Measurement_No=?) AND ABS(Measurement_Value) BETWEEN ? AND ?
GROUP BY Panel_Position)

i get this error returned:
0x80040E1DL -- DB_E_UNSUPPORTEDCONVERSION -- Requested conversion is not supported.

I don't know where inside the sql string a conversion is necessary/fails.
Surprisingsly when i modify the sql statement a little, it is executed WITHOUT ERRORS:

SELECT C.Panel_Id, C.Panel_Tier, C.Panel_Type, C.Panel_No, C.Panel_Position
FROM tblMeasurements AS A, tblAssignment_Ant_Pan AS B, tblPanels AS C
WHERE (A.Measurement_No=?) AND (A.Antenna_No = B.Antenna_No) AND (B.Panel_Id = C.Panel_Id) AND C.Panel_Position in
(SELECT Panel_Position FROM tblMeasurement_Results
WHERE (Measurement_No=?) AND Measurement_Value BETWEEN ? AND ?
GROUP BY Panel_Position)

The only difference between the 2 statements is the ABS() function inside the sub query.

More surprisingly, with the query analyser on the PDA i can execute both statements fine. I am absolutely confused now where i have to search for the mistake.

I would appreciate it very much if someone out there knows an answer or a hint and could tell me.

With kind regards,
Andre

Permission-problem On Simple Query Inside CLR Function
I have created an assembly with permission set safe, and a function inside the assembly.
The function reads data from the same SQL Server as it is running inside. For connection I use the "Context connection = true", and the function has the SystemDataAccessKind attribute set to Read.

However when I execute my CLR function I get an error saying something like:
"The request for permission of type System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission...... failed"

I do, as the login user, have been granted the necessary rights, so I don't believe this is the answer to the error.
And my .dll is also signed.

Has this something to do with writing something a config file?
I have had simular problems with reporting services but fixed them by entering a node in the rspolicy.config file. If this is the case here - which .config file should i modify...machine.config?

How would I do that. Do to a couple of rules I am not allowed to write a stored procedure for this.

Calling Managed CLR Procedure From Inside User Defined Function -- How To ?
I have several UDFs created. Inside one of the UDFs I need to execute a dynamic SQL statement and then take that result and do something else with it, before returning the final value.

I know you can not execute a stored proce from inside a function. I also know you can not use the EXEC statement.

I did read that you could use an external stored procedure and/or managed CLR procedures inside a function.

I have created a managed procedure CLR (C#) that simply executes a passed statemetn and returns the value to the calling routine. I have this all coded and is working fine.

However, I am struggling with knowing how to call this CLR procedure from inside my function, seeing how I can not use EXEC statement.

Any advice on how to do this?

Thanks,

Calling Variable Inside T-SQL Statement
Can someone please take a quick look at this and tell me what I'm doing wrong I'm sure it's something simple. I'm a little new to stored procedures but I've been using SQL and T-SQL for quite some time, I've just always used inline queries with my ASP. This procedure needs to be run monthly by me or another person I grant access to and will update sales information that our sales staff will be paid commission on. I need to supply the start date and and end date for the query and it will pull this information from our business system which is hosted remotely by a third party and pull it into our local SQL server where we can run commission reports against it. (I hope this is enough information you can understand where I'm trying to go with this). I know my problem right now lies in how I'm trying to call the variable inside of my T-SQL. Any help is appreciated. This is an old Unix system and it stores the date as YYYYMMDD as numeric values incase someone wonders why I have dimed my dates as numeric instead of as datetime =)
I'm using a relativity client to create an ODBC connection to the UNIX server and then using a linked server to map a connection in SQL this is the reason for the OpenQuery(<CompanyName>
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
-- =============================================
-- Author: XXXXXXXXXXXXX

-- part sales from XXXXXX business system and upload them
-- into the local XXXXXXXX Database for commission reporting
-- =============================================CREATE proc usp_CSAPartsSalesUpdate@date1 int, @date2 int
As
INSERT INTO CSAPartsSales ( CSA, CustomerNumber, CustomerName, Location, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceDate, InvoiceAmount )
SELECT SalesRoute, HInvCust, CustOrCompName, HInvLoc, HInvNo, HInvDate, HInvAmt From OpenQuery(<CompanyName>, 'Select CPBASC_All.SalesRoute, PMINVHST.HInvCust, CPBASC_All.CustOrCompName, PMINVHST.HInvLoc, PMINVHST.HInvNo, PMINVHST.HInvDate, PMINVHST.HInvAmtFROM PMINVHST INNER JOIN CPBASC_All ON PMINVHST.HInvCust = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo
WHERE (((PMINVHST.HInvAmt)<>0) AND ((PMINVHST.HInvDate)>=''' + @date1 + ''' And (PMINVHST.HInvDate)<=''' + @date2 + ''') AND ((Trim([CPBASC_All].[SalesRoute]))<>'''' And (Trim([CPBASC_All].[SalesRoute]))<>''000''))')

In this example date1 will be equal to 20070901 and date2 will be equal to 20070930 so I can pull all CSA sales for the month of September.
This is the error message I get when I try to create the proc:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure usp_CSAPartsSalesUpdate, Line 17
Incorrect syntax near '+'.

How To Determine, Inside A Function, If A Linked-server-query Returned Results
Hi, have configured an ODBC linked server for an Adaptive Server Anywhere (ASA6.0) database.
I have to write a function (not a procedure) that receives a number (@Code) and returns 1 if it was found on a table in the linked server, or 0 if not. Looks very simple...
One problem, is that the queries on a linked-server must be made through the OPENQUERY statement, which doesen't support dynamic parameters. I've solved this making the whole query a string, and executing it, something like this:

SET @SQL='SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(CAT_ASA, ''SELECT code FROM countries WHERE code=' + @Code + ''')'
EXEC sp_executesql @SQL

(CAT_ASA is the linked-server's name)

Then, i would use @@ROWCOUNT to determine if the code exists or not. But before this, a problem appears: sp_executesql is not allowed within a function (only extended procedures are allowed).
Does somebody know how to make what i want?? I prefer to avoid using temporary tables.
Thanks!

Need Info About Dynamic Reporting (Read Problem Statement, Inside)
Hi All!

I have a specific requirement.

I have to generate a report on the fly.
The display fields, parameters and sort conditions would be user specified at run time in a ASP.NET web form. There will be a superset of the display, filter and sort fields out of which the user cans select one or more.

From the web form, i am taking these three parts as three strings and sending them as parameters to a Stored Procedure. The Stored Procedure will read each string, and identify what are the individual fields and generates the result accordingly.

So here my requirement is that Reporting Services must read the Stored Procedure, create a dataset and even create the User Interface all at run-time as we do not know what fields are displayed at design time. The Headers for each field come from the Stored Procedure. I have to show the report based on what are the fields in the Stored procedure at that instance of time.

I hope i have explained very clearly.

I would be grateful for your contributions.

Multiple Tables Used In Select Statement Makes My Update Statement Not Work?
I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

TSQL - Use ORDER BY Statement Without Insertin The Field Name Into The SELECT Statement
Hi guys,
I have the query below (running okay):

Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01

The results are just as I need:

Field01           Field02

-------------          ----------------------

192473           8461760

192474           22810

Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:

Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
INTO AuxiliaryTable
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable
The the results are:

Field02

----------------------

22810
8461760

And what I need is (without showing any other field):

Field02

----------------------

8461760
22810

Is there any good suggestion?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Aldo.
