Using A Cursor As A Function Parameter

Using A Cursor In A Function
I'm creating a user-defined functtion, with a cursor in it.... I really do not understand the errors that I am getting when I try to run my query :

Split Function With Cursor
Hi,
I am trying to write a stored procedure that takes a comma separated letter. I have a split function that returns the splitted letters. I have select some values from the tables in the database where the title starts with each splitted letter. I thought I should use cursor that contains each letter and in the while loop i put my select statement with the conditions.
Is this the correct way. Or are there any ideas for this?

thanks,

Regards,

Function To Call Function By Name Given As Parameter
I want to write function to call another function which name isparameter to first function. Other parameters should be passed tocalled function.If I call it function('f1',10) it should call f1(10).

Using Cursor As OUT Parameter In Stored Procedure
Hi guys,
I have a serious problem.
I need to use my cursor as an out parameter, but the problem is, HOW CAN I CLOSE THE CURSOR??????If I dont close the cursor, my server is getting really slow because of the open cursors, cause I have more than 100 stored procedures, which have a cursor as an out-parameter.Here's one of my stored procedures :

create or replace PACKAGE pkgResIS TYPE resType IS REF CURSOR RETURN res%ROWTYPE;END pkgRes;
create or replace procedure res_sel_val(p_id in number,cs out pkgRes.resType)asBEGIN  open cs for  select * from res where res_id = p_id;  --close cs;EXCEPTION  when others then     raise_application_error(-20970, 'record kan niet geselecteerd worden');END res_sel_val;
How can I close my cursor? If I write the "close cursor" (which is in red at the code above), it returns an empty cursor, which is not my intention.Please help me with thisThanks in advance Morph 'n Nike

Passing A Parameter To A USE Command Within A Cursor
Hi everyone I am trying to pass a parameter to a USE command within the body of a cursor.  I keep getting an error. Here is my code.
 



Code Snippet
DECLARE @SQLText    AS NVARCHAR(4000)
Declare @SQLText2 as NVARCHAR (2000)


DECLARE Cursor_Trial CURSOR FOR SELECT name FROM sys.sysdatabases order by name
Declare @name as varchar(255)
Open Cursor_Trial
FETCH NEXT FROM Cursor_Trial INTO @name
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
     Use  @name  --------This is where I'm getting the error
           
 
 Set @SQLText2 = @name
 select @SQLText2, * from sys.database_principals
 where type_desc='DATABASE_ROLE'
 and name = 'xxxxx'
 
   FETCH NEXT FROM Cursor_Trial INTO @name
 
END

CLOSE Cursor_Trial
DEALLOCATE Cursor_Trial
 
 
As you can see I am trying to pass the next database name into the body of the cursor so that the query will pull the role information only for the current database in the loop. Any thoughts or tips? Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do here?

Stored Procedure With CURSOR OUTPUT Parameter, Using JDBC And A Callable Statement
My server is MS Sql Server 2005.  I'm using com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver as the driver class.  I've established a connection to the database.

I'm trying to invoke a stored procedure using JDBC and a callable statement.  The stored procedure has a parameter @CurOut CURSOR VARYING OUTPUT.  How do I setup the callable statement so the output parameter is accepted by the driver?

I'm not really trying to pass a cursor up to the database Server but I'm wanting a cursor back from the stored procedure that is other than the result set or other value the stored procedure returns.

First problem: What java.sql.Types (or SQL Server specific) value do I specify for the out parameter I'm registering on the CallableStatement?

Second problem: What do I set the value of the parameter to?

The code looks like:

CallableStatement cstmt = myConnection.prepareCall(sQuery);

cstmt.registerOutParameter(1, Types.OTHER); // What is the right type?

cstmt.setNull(1, Types.OTHER); // What is the right type?

if (cstmt.execute()) {

 ResultSet rs = cstmt.getResultSet();

}

Execution results in a NullPointerException from the driver.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your assistance.

Using A Scalar Valued Function As A Parameter Of A Table Valued Function?
Ok, I'm pretty knowledgable about T-SQL, but I've hit something that seems should work, but just doesn't...
I'm writing a stored procedure that needs to use the primary key fields of a table that is being passed to me so that I can generate what will most likely be a dynamically generated SQL statement and then execute it.
So the first thing I do, is I need to grab the primary key fields of the table.  I'd rather not go down to the base system tables since we may (hopefully) upgrade this one SQL 2000 machine to 2005 fairly soon, so I poke around, and find sp_pkeys in the master table.  Great.  I pass in the table name, and sure enough, it comes back with a record set, 1 row per column.  That's exactly what I need.
Umm... This is the part where I'm at a loss.  The stored procedure outputs the resultset as a resultset (Not as an output param).  Now I want to use that list in my stored procedure, thinking that if the base tables change, Microsoft will change the stored procedure accordingly, so even after a version upgrade my stuff SHOULD still work.  But... How do I use the resultset from the stored procedure?  You can't reference it like a table-valued function, nor can you 'capture' the resultset for use using the  syntax like:
DECLARE @table table@table=EXEC sp_pkeys MyTable
That of course just returns you the RETURN_VALUE instead of the resultset it output.  Ugh.  Ok, so I finally decide to just bite the bullet, and I grab the code from sp_pkeys and make my own little function called fn_pkeys.  Since I might also want to be able to 'force' the primary keys (Maybe the table doesn't really have one, but logically it does), I decide it'll pass back a comma-delimited varchar of columns that make up the primary key.  Ok, I test it and it works great.
Now, I'm happily going along and building my routine, and realize, hey, I don't really want that in a comma-delimited varchar, I want to use it in one of my queries, and I have this nice little table-valued function I call split, that takes a comma-delimited varchar, and returns a table... So I preceed to try it out...
SELECT *FROM Split(fn_pkeys('MyTable'),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error.  Ugh.  Eventually, I even try:
SELECT *FROM Split(substring('abc,def',2,6),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error.
Hmm...What am I doing wrong here, or can't you use a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
SELECT *FROM Split('bc,def',DEFAULT) works just fine.
So my questions are:
Is there any way to programmatically capture a resultset that is being output from a stored procedure for use in the stored procedure that called it?
Is there any way to pass a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
Oh, this works as well as a work around, but I'm more interested in if there is a way without having to workaround:
DECLARE @tmp varchar(8000)
SET @tmp=(SELECT dbo.fn_pkeys('MyTable'))
SELECT *
FROM Split(@tmp,DEFAULT)

Parameter In Function
Hi,

this has started from me wanting to write a report that allowed the user to choose from a drop down list of how many months they want the report to cover. IE i want the report for the last 3 months, or 5 months or ...

To do this i created a report with a value list parameter (values are negative integers to give the necessary start date for the reported rows) and had that parameter in the where clause, along the lines of ...
select *blah*
from *blah*
where ( *myfield* > dateadd (mm, @MonthParam, GetDate())

i get a sql error (ie an error from the database not reporting services) saying that the variable hasnt been declared.

I have worked around the problem in this instance but is there a 'feature' in RS that means report parameters cannot take part in functions?


TIA

How Specify The Variable As Parameter For A Function
I could successfully modify the package level variable using a script component (Control Flow Level) and execute the data flow task after this script component. The OLE DB Command has one parameter for which I'm using one of the user variable. Here's the SQL statement.

SELECT     Year_Key, Year_Name, Year_Short_Name, Year_Number, Year_Start_Date, Year_End_Date
FROM         d_Time_School_Year
WHERE     (Year_Key = ?)

This works fine. But I want to pass the year_key to a function which accepts a parameter. The SQL should be like this

SELECT     Year_Key, Year_Name, Year_Short_Name, Year_Number, Year_Start_Date, Year_End_Date
FROM        fn_TimeDimension (?)


But SSIS doesn't like this. When I click on parameters command button I get and error like this

"Parameters cannot be extracted from the SQL command. The provider might not help.........

Syntax error, Permission Violation,  or the non-specific error(Microsoft SQL native Client)"

Any clue how to utilize the variables in a SQL which gets data from a function instead of a table?

Thanks

Can't Use Parameter With DateAdd Function??
Hi, I encountered a strange error today.  I have an Integer parameter "hours" that I am trying to use in my SQL Query. 

DATEADD(hh, @hours, @startTime)

It works if I have it set such as DATEADD(hh, 8, @startTime), but I need that parameter there for what I need.

I get this error: 

Error Source:  System.Data
Error Message:  Failed to convert parameter value from Decimal to DateTime.  I tried a variety of CInt and other conversion functions to no avail.

Multi-value Parameter And Function
I have a report with the following dataset query:



Code Snippet
SELECT    ..., 
       dbo.getActivitySinceBeginningYear(..., @countryId ,...) AS HoursYear
FROM         ....
WHERE cast(detail.COUNTRY_ID as nvarchar(max)) IN  (@countryId)  
AND ...
GROUP BY ...
 
 


countryId is defined as a String multi-valued parameter.
The getActivitySinceBeginningYear is defined as follows:
 



Code Snippet
ALTER FUNCTION dbo.getActivitySinceBeginningYear
(
...
@countryId ntext,
...
)
RETURNS decimal(18,5)
AS
BEGIN
declare @return decimal(18,5)
set @return = 0.0

SELECT @return = SUM(detail.HOURS_WORKED)
FROM ...
inner join charlist_to_table(@countryId, Default) f on detail.COUNTRY_ID = f.str
WHERE ...
RETURN @return
END
 
 
This function works as expected if I transmit one ID or several.
The report works fine if I check only one ID.
If I check several IDs, the report displays this error:
Procedure or function dbo.getActivitySinceBeginningYear has too many arguments specified.
 
Why???
 
My second problem is with the Where clause:



Code Snippet
WHERE cast(detail.COUNTRY_ID as nvarchar(max)) IN  (@countryId) 
 
 
If I do:



Code SnippetWHERE detail.COUNTRY_ID  IN  (@countryId) 
 
 
I have the following error:
Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '3,5' to data type int.
(I transmitted 3 and 5 for countryId)
 
That's why I tried to use a cast, but the data returned by the query is wrong when I transmit several value.

Passing Table Name As Parameter To Function
Hi all.

I'm writing reports in Rep. Services that reads data from Dynamics NAV (Navision). In NAV data are stored by company and this is implemented by using the company name as prefix to the table name. This means that in a NAV database with three companies (lets call these companies A, B and C) we will have three tables with customers. The table names will be A$Customer, B$Customer and C$Customer.

Now to my problem:

I wan't to write one report where I can choose company. I do not want to use a stored procedure. I want to use a function so I can use the function in select statements and join several functions to build up a report that needs data from several tables.

Is there some way to pass the table name or a part of the table name to a function that returns the content of the actual table? I know I can pass parameters that I can use in the where clause, but is it possible to do it with the table name. Or is there any other way to solve this.

All ideas are welcome. Thanks.

i want to make a function that will take a table as input parameter. this table will be the output of a stored procedure. while i were writing the function i have an error and when i read about it i found that i can not send a table as input parameter to a function till i create a new TYPE of this table with its columns and data types as UDT but i found that sql server 2005 does not support the type 'table'...
my question now is it possible technically to make this function? is it possible to write something like that :
 
SELECT dbo.MyFunction(exec dbo.MystoredProc)
 
and in my function i am using CLR-Integration as this :
 create function MyFunction
(
@TempTable table
(
ContractID int,
ContractNumber nvarchar(20),
Name_En nvarchar(80),
Name_Ar nvarchar(80),
ContractAmount money,
CurrencyID nchar(3),
DateStart smalldatetime,
DateEnd smalldatetime,
Currency_En nvarchar(30),
Currency_Ar nvarchar(30)
)
)
returns table( ContractNumber nvarchar(20),
Name_En nvarchar(80),
Name_Ar nvarchar(80),
ContractAmount decimal,
Currency_En nvarchar(30),
Currency_Ar nvarchar(30),
[Year] int,
[Month] int,
DomesticAmount decimal
)
as external name [AssemblyName].[PathOfTheFunctionInTheAssembly].[FunctionNameInAssembly]
 
please help me in this code as i need it urgently...
thanks in advance,
best regards,

Input Parameter To Function In SQL Query
I am trying to use a Execute SQL task in which I call a query and get back a scalar value. I THINK I have it set up correctly, yet I am getting a very unhelpful error message of:

Error: 0xC002F210 at Determine Previous Trade Date, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "SELECT[Supporting].[dbo].[fGetOffsetTradeDate](?, -1) AS [PreviousTradeDate]" failed with the following error: "Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

The Parameter Mapping has a single INPUT entry of data type DATE mapped to parameter 0.

The Result Set property (in General) is set to Single Row and there is a single entry in the Result Set config which maps [PreviousTradeDate] to a variable.

Odd thing is, if I replace the ? in the query with a date (say '03/24/2006') everything works fine. This would indicate that my query syntax is fine.

Is It Possible To Set The Query Parameter By Giving A Function Name
I am trying to do a query similar to this:
 
SELECT * FROM TRANSACCTION_HISTORY WHERE TXN_DATE=@RepDate
 
For the query parameter @RepDate, I would like to pass a function to it. The function is a calculation of date based on today's date (e.g. Today() function to be simple). So that users don't have to type in the date every time.

 
Now the question is: is it really possible to do that in RS? Because I am getting a type conversion error, when I put Today() in the Define Query Parameters disalog box.
 
Thanks for helping!

Passing A Suquery To A Function As A Parameter
 

How would one pass a subquery to a function as a parameter?
 
I have a function, f_Split that returns a table and has two parameters @List varchar(max) and @Delim char(1).  I'd like to use it to normalize rows in a table and return the results for use in a report. I tried the following:
 
SELECT * FROM dbo.f_Split((SELECT Code FROM Codes WHERE ID = 10), '|')

 
I'm getting a syntax error for the subquery.  Could anyone show me the proper way to pass a subquery to a function, even if the function is different from what I have defined here.
 
Thanks,
DD

Function With A Parameter Of Type Object.
Hello,

I would like to create a function that accepts a value of any type as parameter. I mean, it could receive a value of type int, datetime, char,...
In .net, I would use the type "object". Is there an equivalent for SQL server function ?

Hi
Let€™s say I have employees table that contains id column for the supervisor of the employee.
I need to create a function that gets coma separated string value of the supervisors€™ ids,
And return the ids of employees that the ENTIRE listed supervisors are there supervisor.
(some thing like €œSelect id from employees where supervisor=val_1 and supervisor=val_2 and  €¦ and supervisor=val_N)
Is there a way to create this function without using sp_exec?
 
I€™ve created a function that splits the coma separated value to INT table.

How To Write A Function With Integer Parameter Accepting Null
I've got a function which inserts into a database, and has arguments for each item being inserted
A couple of the items are integer datatypes (in SQL), but they will accept nulls
When I add my parameters, it asks to explicitly use the SQL datatype (which is integer):.Add("@myParam", SqlDbType.Int).Value = myParam
In the header of the function, I assumed I could make the argument optional - Optional ByVal myParam as Integer=System.DBNull.Value
However, when the function runs, I always get an error:System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code  Message="Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'Integer' is not valid."
I make them all Optional (which won't happen, but various arguments may be, at different timesand I get this error, with the last item (which is on a separate line), in red:Constant expression is required.
How can I get around this?

Note: I can search and get the chinese characters if I use stored procedures; and the columns in the tables can store chinese chararcters as well.   Only table-valued function is not working with the chinese characters.  Is it a bug from MSSQL 2005?

Error: Invalid Length Parameter Passed To The SUBSTRING Function.
Hi,

I am using a simple procedure to pivot results (found in another forum and adapted it). It is done on SQL Server 2005 server with all service packs. Procedure:
**************
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[EthnicityPivot] @StDate as Datetime, @EndDate as Datetime
as
begin
DECLARE @Teams varchar(2000)

truncate table ForEthnicPivot

INSERT INTO ForEthnicPivot
SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(ID), Team, Ethnicity
FROM         dbo._EthnicityByTeamEpisode
where Startdate between @StDate and @EndDate
GROUP BY Ethnicity, Team

SET @Teams = ''
--// Get a list of the pivot columns that are important to you.

SELECT @Teams = @Teams + '[' + Team + '],'
FROM (SELECT Distinct Team FROM ForEthnicPivot) Team
--// Remove the trailing comma

SET @Teams = LEFT(@Teams, LEN(@Teams)-1)
--// Now execute the Select with the PIVOT and dynamically add the list
--// of dates for the columns
EXEC( 'SELECT * FROM ForEthnicPivot PIVOT (SUM(countID) FOR Team IN (' + @Teams + ')) AS X' )
end
************

I can call the function:
exec EthnicityPivot '01/01/2007','09/09/2007'

 and it works fine in SQL analyzer, but when I want to use it in Visual Studio in a new report I am getting this error
 message:

There is an error in the query. Invalid length parameter passed to the SUBSTRING function. Incorrect syntax near ')'.

Anyone had similar error and sorted it?

Dynamic Cursor Versus Forward Only Cursor Gives Poor Performance
Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin
