it seems like i am able to create it. But when i try to access that
temporary table, i get an error "Invalid object".
this is happening only when i try to create local temporary table.
Global temporary table works fine inside the dynamic SQL.
Any Help appreciated.

I have recently converted a table with many columns that are now using sparse columns.However I have now found that a lot of my queries are not working.It seems to be due to the fact that I am using a lot of #Temp tables in my queries along with the SELECT... INTO... method to get data into the temporary table.This worked previously fine, however the sparse columns are not coming across to the #Temp table.Here is an example of what previously working fine:-
(This obviously just grabbed everything in the Client table)
Select *
INTO #temptable1
from ClientI have tried the following without any success (Knowing I now need to specify the column names)
Select ClientId, Val1, Val2, Val3, Val4, Val5, Val6
INTO #temptable1
from ClientVal3, Val4, Val6 and Val6 are sparse columns.
The query runs fine, however when I try and do a select of any of the sparse columns from #temptable1, it just says they do not exist.After reading up. It would seem I can not use the SELECT... INTO... however I have not found any other alternatives that I can convert my code to?I have a lot of quite complex queries that use this method and I am looking for something that I can convert them all over to.

I have the following Pivot Table:
Code Snippet
Declare @tblEquipment Table
(
numEquipmentID INT,
txtManufacturer nvarchar(30),
txtModel nvarchar(30)
)
Declare @tblEquipmentFields Table
(
numFieldNameID INT,
txtFieldName nvarchar(25)
)
Declare @tblEquipmentDetails Table
(
numEquipmentDetailsID INT,
numEquipmentID INT,
numFieldNameID INT,
txtFieldValue nvarchar(30)
)
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(23, 'Dell', 'Optiplex 270')
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(26, 'Dell', '1705FP')
Insert INTO @tblEquipment Values(42, 'Dell', 'Optiples 745')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentFields Values(1, 'Monitor Size')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentFields Values(2, 'Processor Type')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1077, 23, 2, 'P4M')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1146, 26, 1, '17')
Insert INTO @tblEquipmentDetails Values(1026, 42, 2, 'P4 Dual Core')
Select numEquipmentID As EquipmentID, [Monitor Size], [Processor Type]
From
(Select a.numEquipmentID, txtManufacturer, txtModel, txtFieldName, txtFieldValue
From @tblEquipment a JOIN
@tblEquipmentDetails b ON
a.numEquipmentID = b.numEquipmentID
JOIN @tblEquipmentFields c ON
b.numFieldNameID = c.numFieldNameID
) As SourceTable
Pivot
(
Max(txtFieldValue)
For txtFieldName IN ([Monitor Size], [Processor Type])
) As PivotTable
What I'm wondering is if it's possible to have the columns change dynamically. For example:
If lets say I only want the record with numEquipmentID of 23 to show I only want its corresponding information to show
EquipmentID ProcessorType
23 P4M
Now lets say that I want to bring back an additional record, like 23 and 26 I would like the columns to change to the following
EquipmentID ProcessorType Monitor Size
23 P4M NULL
26 NULL 17
So in essence a column will be added based on the equipmentID. Thanks in advanced.

Is it possible to create a temp table using exec. e.g
exec('create table #temp1 (xyz int, abc int)')
when I run the above statement, I dont get an error but nothing happens.
The reason I need to create it dynamically is that in my stored proc, I am passed a number. This number determines how many columns my temp table should have.
thanks

The following dynamic SQL script works for creating a table on the fly but if I change the select @tmpTblNm = 'tmpABC' to select @tmpTblNm = '#tmpABC'
it will not create the temp table. Can anyone help on creating a temp table dynamiclly?
declare @tmpTblNm varchar(40),
@str varchar(1000)
select @tmpTblNm = 'tmpABC'
select @str = ''
-- Create a temp table to hold the current page of data
-- Add an ID column to track the current row
select @str = 'Create Table '+ @tmpTblNm +
' ( row_id int IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
customerID int,
customerName varchar(40),
address1 varchar(40),
city varchar(25) )'
exec (@str)

Hi,
I'm trying to import a csv file directly to my database every month. The contents of the file stays the same, however the format of the columns may vary. For example, 1 month I can have the following:
Time, Probe1, Probe2, Probe3, Probe4
Whereas the next month I can have something like this
Time, Probe2, Probe3, Probe1, Probe4
The "Time" column will always be on the left side, but the probes may vary in their placement.
I'm importing this csv to a temp table, where I then run a query to select any new data and enter that in my main tables. The problem is that when i import the csv, if the placement of the columns has changed, the data gets entered in the wrong locations.
Is there any way to create this temp table dynamically, based on what the header columns of the csv file are?
Any help appreciated!

I need to retrieve columns names(instead of select * from) as single row from table in dynamic way.
i m using following query.
its working fine while using from selected database. but its not working when i m running from different database.
DECLARE @columnnames varchar(max)
select @columnnames = COALESCE(@columnnames,'')+column_name+',' from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS(nolock)
where table_name='table_20141224'
select @columnnames
I need to pass database name dynamically like using by variable.
Is this possible to use variable after from clause. or any other methods?
eg:
DECLARE @columnnames varchar(max)
DECLARE @variable='db_month11_2014'
select @columnnames = COALESCE(@columnnames,'')+column_name+',' from @VARIABLE.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS(nolock)
where table_name='table_20141224'
select @columnnames

I am building an SSIS package that loops through a table in SQL Server and dynamically builds a select statement that i would like to use as an ole db source. I have been having a difficult time with this as the select statement that i am generating is over 200,000 characters long so using an sql variable is out of the question.
I ended up placing the select statement into a table where each row of the table represents a piece of the select. I then use an execute_sql task that selects the entire rowset from this table into a variable object. I then use a for each loop to shred the variable and concatenate it into on big string variable called user:: sql_statement that is my select.
After setting up the loop and testing to see if the user:: sql_statement variable populates correctly i then added a data flow transfer with an ole db source and destination. I then go into the advanced editor for the source and set it to accept an sql statement from a variable and use my user:: sql_statement variable. I was forced to set validate external metadata option to false to avoid an error since there is no way to validate the columns until the for each loop runs during run time.
Now thats all fine and good but what is causing my problem is that during run time, when the package gets to the data flow task, the select statement doesn't seem to be populating the input columns of the data source. I have been searching to no avail on a way to tell the data source to update the input columns but every time it gets there, the package bombs out telling me the ole db source has no available output columns.
Specifically the error i get is :
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: "output "OLE DB Source Output" (6616)" contains no output columns. An asynchronous output must contain output columns.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.

In SQL Server you can do a SELECT INTO to create a new table, much like CREAT TABLE AS in Oracle. I'm putting together a dynamic script that will create a table with the number of columns being the dynamic part of my script. Got any suggestions that come to mind?
Example:
I need to count the number of weeks between two dates, my columns in the table need to be at least one for every week returned in my query.
I'm thinking of getting a count of the number of weeks then building my column string comma separated then do my CREATE TABLE statement rather then the SELECT INTO... But I'm not sure I'll be able to do that using a variable that holds the string of column names. I'm guess the only way I can do this is via either VBScript or VB rather then from within the database.
BTW - this would be a stored procedure...
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to pivot table DYNAMICALLY but couldn't get the desired result .
Here is the code to create a table
create table Report
(
deck char(3),
Jib_in float,
rev int,
rev_insight int,
jib_out float,
[Code] .....
Code written so far. this pivots the column deck and jib_in into rows but thats it only TWO ROWS i.e the one i put inside aggregate function under PIVOT function and one i put inside QUOTENAME()
DECLARE @columns NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql NVARCHAR(MAX);
SET @columns = N'';
SELECT @columns += N', p.' + QUOTENAME(deck)
FROM (SELECT p.deck FROM dbo.report AS p
GROUP BY p.deck) AS x;
[Code] ....
I need all the columns to be pivoted and show on the pivoted table. I am very new at dynamic pivot. I tried so many ways to add other columns but no avail!!

I have this query:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchiseid AS FranchiseId, dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_brandidname AS Brand,
dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisetypename AS [Franchise Type], dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisenumber AS [Franchise Number],
dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_transactiontypename AS [Transaction Type], dbo.Filteredfs_franchise.fs_franchisestatusname AS [Status Code],
[Code] ....
I need to pivot this so I can get one row per franchiseID and multiple columns for [Franchisee Name Entity] and [Franchise Name Individual]. Each [Franchisee Name Entity] and [Franchise Name Individual] has associated percentage of ownership.
This has to be dynamic, because each FranchiseID can have anywhere from 1 to 12 respective owners and those can be any combination of of Entity and Individual. Please, see the attached example for Franchise Number 129 (that one would have 6 additional columns because there are 3 Individual owners with 1 respective Percentage of ownership).
The question is how do I PIVOT and preserve the percentage of ownership?

Hi,
I have a sproc that returns somevalues and everything is working fine... and in my reports i am assigning the header data (in a detail column) based on the some feilds in the sproc... and there around 20 feilds that i want to show... but at a given time i am pretty sure that there wont be more than 10 fields that will have data.
So is it possible that show only the columns that have data in it and sometimes if there is less that 5 - 6 fields.. i want to realign the widths in those tables..
any help is appreciated..

Hi Craig/Kamal,
I got your email address from your web cast. I really enjoyed the web cast and found it to be
very informative.
Our company is planning to use SSIS (VS 2005 / SQL Server 2005). I have a quick question
regarding the product. I have looked for the information on the web, but was not able to find
relevant information.
We are getting Source data from two of our client in the form of Excel Sheet. These Excel sheets
Are generated using reporting services. On examining the excel sheet, I found out that the name
Of the columns contain data itself, so the names are not static such as Jan 2007 Sales, Feb 2007 Sales etc etc.
And even the number of columns are not static. It depends upon the range of date selected by the user.
I wanted to know, if there is a way to import Excel sheet using Integration Services by defining the position
Of column, instead of column name and I am not sure if there is a way for me to import excel with dynamic
Number of columns.
Your help in this respect is highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hi Anthony, I am glad the Web cast was helpful.
Kamal and I have both moved on to other teams in MSFT and I am a little rusty in that area, though in general dynamic numbers of columns in any format is always tricky. I am just assuming its not feasible for you to try and get the source for SSIS a little closer to home, e.g. rather than using Excel output from Reporting Services, use the same/some form of the query/data source that RS is using.
I suggest you post a question on the SSIS forum on MSDN and you should get some good answers.

I am looking to create a script that will go through a table a pick out the necessary columns to create a unique record. Some of the tables that I am working with have 200 plus columns and I am not sure if I would have to list every column name in the script or if they could be dynamically referenced. I am working with a SQL server that has little next to no documentation and everytime I type to mere some tables, I get too many rows back.
