MS SQL Server :: Newbe Question: Calling Function Inside Select

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,
Bruce

Trouble Calling Function In View && Multi-Table Select...
How Do I fix View(below) or Multi-Table select(below) to use this Function to return distinct rows via qcParent_ID?

Following Function populates a field (with concat list of related titles) with other required fields:

Create Function [dbo].openItemsIntoList(@Delimeter varchar(15),@qcparent_ID varchar(1000))

Returns Varchar(8000) as

Begin

Declare @Lists as varchar(8000);

Select @Lists = '';

Select @Lists = @Lists + itemTitle + @Delimeter From z_QClocate_openAll_Qualifier

Where @qcParent_ID = qcParent_ID;

Return Substring(@Lists,1,len(@Lists)-len(@Delimeter));

End

works perfect against single table select (returning 54 distinct rows by qcParent_ID):

Select a.qcParent_ID, a.Facility, a.Modality, openItemListToFix

From dbo.a2_qcEntryForm a

JOIN (Select DISTINCT qcParent_ID, dbo.openItemsIntoList(' / AND ',qcParent_ID) as openItemListToFix FROM dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix) i

on a.qcParent_ID = i.qcParent_ID

But data is needed from 3 tables...
- Created a VIEW that returns all (82) rows (negating distinct of the function on qcParent_ID)
- Failed Miserably Integrating Function call into a multi-table select (inexperienced with complex joins)

This VIEW returns ALL (82) rows in table:

CREATE VIEW z_QClocate_openAll AS

SELECT dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus, dbo.a1_qcParent.qcAlert, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcParent_ID, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcEntryForm_ID,

dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemComplete, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemTitle, dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.Facility, dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.Modality

FROM dbo.a1_qcParent INNER JOIN

dbo.a2_qcEntryForm ON dbo.a1_qcParent.qcParent_ID = dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.qcParent_ID INNER JOIN

dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix ON dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.qcEntryForm_ID = dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcEntryForm_ID AND

dbo.a1_qcParent.qcParent_ID = dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcParent_ID

WHERE (dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'Awaiting Attn') AND (dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemComplete = 0) OR

(dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'In Process') OR

(dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'Re-Opened')

Calling like this returns ALL 82 rows (negating the functions distinct):

Select a.qcParent_ID, a.qcStatus, a.qcAlert, a.itemComplete, a.Facility, a.Modality, openItemListToFix

From z_QClocate_openAll a

JOIN (Select DISTINCT qcParent_ID, dbo.openItemsIntoList(' / AND ',qcParent_ID) as openItemListToFix FROM dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix) i

on a.qcParent_ID = i.qcParent_ID

AND THEN THERES...
Failing miserably on Integrating the Function call into This SELECT ON MULTI-TABLES:

How to integrate the Function call:
JOIN (Select DISTINCT qcParent_ID, dbo.openItemsIntoList(' / AND ',qcParent_ID) as openItemListToFix FROM dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix) i

on a.qcParent_ID = i.qcParent_ID

into the multi-table Select relationships (while maintaining Where & Order By):

SELECT dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus, dbo.a1_qcParent.qcAlert, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcParent_ID, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcEntryForm_ID,

dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemComplete, dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemTitle, dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.Facility, dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.Modality

FROM dbo.a1_qcParent INNER JOIN

dbo.a2_qcEntryForm ON dbo.a1_qcParent.qcParent_ID = dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.qcParent_ID INNER JOIN

dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix ON dbo.a2_qcEntryForm.qcEntryForm_ID = dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcEntryForm_ID AND

dbo.a1_qcParent.qcParent_ID = dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.qcParent_ID

WHERE (dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'Awaiting Attn') AND (dbo.a3_qcItems2Fix.itemComplete = 0) OR

(dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'In Process') OR

(dbo.a1_qcParent.qcStatus = 'Re-Opened')

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?

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

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 '+'.

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?

Calling Sp_oa* In Function
I'm faced with a situation where I will need to calculate a column fora resultset by calling a component written as a VB6 DLL, passingparameters from the resultset to the component and setting (orupdating) a column with the result. I thought that perhaps the bestway out would be to create a UDF that passes the parameters to the VBcomponent using the sp_oa* OLE stored procs.For a test, I created an ActiveX DLL in VB6 (TestDLL) with someproperties and methods. I then created a function that creates theobject, sets the required properties and returns a result. I usesp_oaDestroy at the end of the function to remove the objectreference. The function seems to work surprisingly well except for asmall problem; when I use the function to calculate a column for aresultset with more that one row, the DLL appears to stay locked up("the file is being used by another person or program"). This leavesme with the impression that the object reference is not beingdestroyed. I have to stop/restart the SQL Server in order to free theDLL.Question:Is the UDF approach the best way? I don't like the idea of creatingand destroying the object at every pass which is what the UDF does.As an alternative, I suppose that I could have a single SP where Icreate the OLE object once, loop through the result set with a cursorand do my processing/updating, then close the OLE object. I must saythat I'm not too fond of that approach either.Thanks for your help,Bill E.Hollywood, FL(code is below)___________________________--Test the functionCreate Table #TestTable(Field1 int)INSERT INTO #TestTable VALUES (1)INSERT INTO #TestTable VALUES (2)SELECT Field1, dbo.fnTest(Field1,4) AS CalcColFROM #TestTableDrop Table #TestTable___________________________CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnTest/*This function calls a VB DLL*/(--input variables@intValue1 smallint,@intValue2 smallint)RETURNS integerASBEGIN--Define the return variable and the counterDeclare @intReturnValue smallintSet @intReturnValue=0--Define other variablesDeclare @intObject intDeclare @intResult intDeclare @intError intSet @intError=0If @intError = 0exec @intError=sp_oaCreate 'TestDLL.Convert', @intObject OUTPUTIf @intError = 0exec @intError = sp_OASetProperty @intObject,'Input1', @intValue1If @intError = 0exec @intError = sp_OASetProperty @intObject,'Input2', @intValue2If @intError = 0exec @intError = sp_oamethod @intObject, 'Multiply'If @intError = 0exec @intError = sp_oagetproperty @intObject,'Output',@intReturnValue OutputIf @intError = 0exec @intError = sp_oadestroy @intObjectRETURN @intReturnValueEND

Calling A Function From A Stored Procedure
Hello all,
I'm trying to construct a select statement in a stored procedure that filters based on the returned values of a number of functions. My function works fine, but when I try to call the function from the stored procedure I get an error.
I'm going to try explain the thought process behind what I'm doing. Hope I make enough sense.The purpose of the stored procedure is to perform a wildcard search on a tool. The tool contains a number of FK that link to different tables (e.g., manufacturer, vendor). So I'm creating functions that also search the manufacturer and vendor and return the matching IDs.
Example of tool SELECT statement:SELECT tool_number, tool_description
FROM tool
WHERE tool_manufacturer IN (UDFmanufacturer_SearchName(@search_string)
This gives me an error:'UDFmanufacturer_SearchName' is not a recognized built-in function name.
Function code (removed some wrapping code for simplicity):SELECT manufacturer_id
FROM manufacturer
WHERE manufacturer_name LIKE '%' + @search_string + '%'These statements both work if I run a independent query: SELECT *
FROM UDFmanufacturer_SearchName('mol') SELECT *
FROM tool
WHERE tool_manufacturer IN (SELECT *FROM UDFmanufacturer_SearchName('mol')) This code fails:SELECT *
FROM ato_tool
WHERE ato_tool_manufacturer IN (UDFmanufacturer_SearchName('mol'))
I'm stuck. I haven't been able to find anything that shows me where I'm going wrong. Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks,Jay

If I call in that manner, it gives error as - 'getfulldate' is not a recognized function name.

I need to write SSIS package with 5 script task. I have one function which need to be called from each SSIS one by one. I wrote the that function at first SSIS task. For example:

Public Function Add() As Integer
Dim i, j As Integer
i = 10
j = 20
Return (i + j)
End Function

and I can call this function inside 1st SSIS task but how can I call this function on rest of 4 script task?
Thanks

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!

Calling A Function From A Function?
Hi All

Yesterday Peso was gracious enough to help me with creating function/views/sp's

I took those examples and extended what had from excel into function in SQL

however I see myself repeating certain parts of the query and i'm wondering if there is a way to call a function (in part or in whole) from another function?

Here are excerpts two functions I have:

We'll call this function UserUsage()
------------------------------------
RETURN(
SELECT ut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(Sum(hu.session_time)/ 60000) AS [Time Spent(MIN)],
Max(hu.time_stamp) AS [Last Log Date],
pct.Title, cat.topic_name
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable ut,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.history_usage hu,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.pc_CourseTitles pct,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.cam_topics cat
WHERE ut.student_id = hu.student_id
AND hu.course_id = pct.CourseID
AND hu.topic_id = cat.topic_id
AND ((ut.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (pct.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (ut.GroupID=3400)
AND (hu.time_stamp>= @StartDate
And hu.time_stamp< @EndDate)
AND (hu.session_time<21600000))
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName, pct.Title, cat.topic_name
)

and will call this function UserSummary():
-----------------------------------------
RETURN (
SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable AS ut
INNER JOIN ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.History_Usage AS hu
ON hu.Student_ID = ut.Student_ID
WHERE ut.ClientID = @ClientID
AND ut.GroupID = 3400
AND hu.Time_Stamp >= @StartDate
AND hu.Time_Stamp < @EndDate
AND hu.Session_Time < 21600000
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName
)

As you can see the first part of the both query are simlar. In particular the:

SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]

and also the variables @StartDate and @EndDate.

In C# it would create a method and just call that method as well as the variables. However i'm not sure how to do that with sql functions. Could someone shed some light please?

Thank you!

Calling User Defined Function From Other Server
I have UDF in a database on SQL2000 server. Is it possible to call this UDF from other server (SQL2005)? I did setup a linked server to SQL2000

Call to the following function returns an error:

Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Invalid column name 'srv2000'.

select [srv2000].db_test.dbo.F_TEST()

Using A While Inside A Select Statement

Hi All,
Can we use the while loop inside a select statement? Meaning, something like this:

Code Block
SELECT DATE,
WHILE (SELECT TOP 1 DATEPART(HH,DATE) FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE) <= 23
(SELECT DATEADD(HH,6,SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE.DATE) )
FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE

What I want to do here is I have a table which has all the dates but with time only representing 00 hrs. I want to display this column and along side, I want to have another column, which displays the date split at 6 hours. So, one left column, there will 4 columns on the right.

Hope the question is clear.

Thanks a lot.

Mannu.

Stored Procedure And Calling User Defined Function
I seem to be getting tasks that I am not familiar with these days. I am a
guy that has coded it all in the asp page or in the code behind in .NET.
This problem is outlined below and I need a help / advice on doing this. I
had the flow of the 3 parts to it expanded below. A call is made to a Stored
Procedure, The SP then calls a user defined function that runs SQL, this
returns a 1 or 0 to the SP which then returns the value back to the call on
the asp page. This is a lot I know but it is the way the lead guy wants it
done. Any help so I can keep most of the hair I have left is appreciated :-)

Short list of process flow:

1. Form.asp calls to rx_sp_HasAccessToClient in SQL SERVER

2. rx_sp_HasAccessToClient then calls ab_HasAccessToClient

3. ab_HasAccessToClient runs SQL command on db and sends return bit back to
rx_sp_HasAccessToClient

4. rx_sp_HasAccessToClient then sends this back to the call in the Form.asp
page

5. Form.asp then checks the Boolean and if 1 then show or if 0 then deny.

<FLOW WITH CODE AND FUNCTIONS :>

This is not the correct syntax but is showing what I understand sort of how
this is to be done so far.

This panel loads up the Vendors and id's when the user clicks on the link
"view detailed list of vendors associated with this client". This is the
beginning of the process.

This is code in Form.asp

'PANEL ONE
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX----
>

If ValidateInput(Request.Querystring("Postback"))="FormDetails" then 'Check
Postback Type

'We need to load up vendors associated with the current client.

'--------- CHECK ACCESS HERE via function ab_HasAccessToClient
--------

'If the call returns 1, then the employee has access.

'Otherwise, just write out "Access to this client is denied."

'CALL SP - Not sure what parameters need to go with it or its syntax

Execute_SP("rx_sp_HasAccessToClient '" & ClientSSN & "', 1)

'When it returns can check it here........

if ab_HasAccessToClient result is a 1 then

'boolean would be 1 so show panel

Else

'boolean would be 0 so show access denied

'allow them to go back to the original page.

end if

'PANEL ONE
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX----

Dynamic Query Calling User Defined Function
I have the following procedure, that calls a Padding function to pad characters to a field.

Here is what the procedure looks like

Code:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Pad_Left]

@Table VARCHAR(255),
@Column VARCHAR(255),
@PadChar CHAR(1),
@PadToLen INT

AS

DECLARE @Query Varchar(5000)

SET @Query = 'UPDATE ' + @Table + '

SET ' + @Column + ' = dbo.Function_PadLeft(' + @Column + ', ''' + @PadChar + ''', ' + @PadToLen + ')'

EXECUTE(@Query)
GO

When I run this I get the error

Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Pad_Left, Line 13
Syntax error converting the varchar value 'UPDATE Lincoln

SET baths = dbo.Function_PadLeft(baths, '0', ' to a column of data type int.

But when I just run this query, it works

Code:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Pad_Left]

@Table VARCHAR(255),
@Column VARCHAR(255),
@PadChar CHAR(1),
@PadToLen INT

AS

UPDATE Lincoln

SET Baths = dbo.Function_PadLeft(Baths, '0', 4)

GO

Why would one work but not the other? I don't understand, as they are the same thing, just one calls the function dynamically?

I must be missing something very obvious

Thanks for any help!
