Hello all,
I have discovered that you cannot use the "USE" command in a stored procedure to change to another database.
Is there any way I can change to another database within a stored procedure besides calling another stored procedure on the database I want?
Thanks,
Nev.
Hi i have the following stored procedure, i am trying to convert it to inline sql, however i got stuck, because how would i output a value e.g "@Access_Right_ID", this is the stored procedure below
CREATE PROCEDURE dhoc_AccessRight_Insert @AccessLevel char(50), @Access_Right_ID int OUT,
@Tstamp timestamp out
ASSELECT * FROM tblAccess_Right
WHERE AccessLevel = @AccessLevel IF @@ROWCOUNT <>0 BEGIN RAISERROR('This record is already in the database',16,1) RETURN 14 END
ELSE BEGIN SET NOCOUNT OFF; INSERT INTO tblAccess_Right ( AccessLevel ) VALUES (@AccessLevel); SET @Access_Right_ID = @@Identity SET @Tstamp = (SELECT Tstamp FROM tblAccess_Right WHERE Access_Right_ID=@Access_Right_ID)
--Make sure this has saved, if not return 10 as this is unexpected error IF @@rowcount = 0 BEGIN RAISERROR('This record has not been inserted at this time, it might have been inserted by another user, please try again',16,1) RETURN 10 END ELSE BEGIN IF @@error <>0 BEGIN RETURN @@error END ENDEND
GO
Is there any way to change the 'type' of a stored procedure from 'user' to 'system'?

After I changed the activation stored procedure of a queue, the old activation stored procedure keeps being launched by the service associated with the queue. I turned the queue off and on, but to no avail. I also checked the dynamic view sys.service_queues to make sure the proper stored procedure exists in the field activation_procedure. Do you have any idea about what might have gone wrong?
Thanks
I have a stored proc which will be fed a value that is compared to a char value for a selection. One of the choices might be 'all' for which I want to return all records. Something like this
create procedure name @location char(40)
as select ----------------
where locname like @location
I tried using LIKE COALESCE but no luck. Any ideas
Thanks
Here's the deal:
I import a flat file from a legacy system, and then convert it into a single table. That works simply enough.
Then I have a SP that querys that table using a parameter for an accountID. My business tier calls that SP and returns the results to the calling tier (my web application). Easy enough...
Now for the question. The people who created the flat file (written in COBOL) decided to use "codes" to represent data. So, for instance, if I'm looking for the account plan, I can expect to see characters like ], or [, or +, etc... These characters have a special meaning, like:
] = Plan A
[ = Plan B
+ = Plan C, and so on.
Currently, the web application displays those characters, but I want it to display the actual plan name. Is there a way that when I execute the SP, the SP could pull the necessary records, and whenever it encounters a certain "plan" character, it could convert it into a "readable" name? Say that it sees that the plan_type field has a value of "]" for twenty records, so it converts those twenty records' plan_type value from "]" into "Plan A"? I'm not sure if I can do that, but I want to at least evaluate the option if I can.
I've evaluated other options, like using a CASE statement in my code, but I shot that down quickly...for obvious reasons. I don't wanna be changing my web application or business tier each time these guys update a plan name, or add a new one, delete an existing one, etc...
I've also thought about creating a dictionary table than contains the plan's code and its name, and then just INNER JOIN the first table with the dict table. This would keep my SP very simple (it's very straight-forward right now, and I like that). That way, if a plan name is ever changed, or a new one is added, I simply update the dict table using a simple query. However, if my SP is doing the conversion, I could just as easily update the SP.
Either of these methods would work for me, and I *do* know how to do the latter (dict table). However, there are quite a few other fields that I may have to do this for. I believe when I left for the day on Friday, my last count was 14 fields total that needed translation. That would mean 14 different dict tables! That could certainly affect my SP performance with all those INNER JOINS!
Therefore, I'm certainly interested in figuring out if it's possible to do the former method (SP), and then I shall decide which method is best for my situation.
Feel free to include your thoughts on which process you think is better as well. I'm really riding the fence with this one. However, if I can't find out how to change field values in my SP, then obviously I'll make a decision very quickly...
Thanks in advance.
The SQL Server is running full recovery model but they would like it to be changed to simple while the data backup occurs then set back to full. Is there a way to do this in a stored procedure or is it all done via options ? Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedOk, this is kind of an odd problem. Back in June we were having problems with our call manager software, and they decided to have it just start usinga new database. Now I'm trying to generate some reports which need to cover both the old call stats and the new, so that means the stored procedure builds a temp table and populates it from both databases.This works perfectly fine in Management Studio, and when being called from Excel.However when I try to call it from an ASP.NET web app using SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(), I only get results from the new database!What on earth could cause that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am working with multiple databases on the same server and in a stored procedure I need to be able to call on one of them.
Here is an example of what I am trying to do in this stored procedure:create procedure sp_procedure(@variable int)select anitem from atable where selection = @variable
declare @anothervariable Char(3)
select @anothervariable = item_that_determines_database from atable where selection = @variable
use dbo.@anothervariableselect count(id) from Some_table where selection = @variable
The database is not found using this method and I do need to use it in a stored procedure. All of the databases being used are (3) letter names in lower case (aaa, bbb, ccc, etc...), the info that @anothervariable pulls from the table is the name of that database but in all caps. Does this part make a difference?
Also, what method could I use to get the database variable to read from that selected database?
Thank-you for your help.

We're running SQL Server 2008 and have run into a bit of a situation. We have 5 databases all with the same tables and we are trying to create a query that will loop through the different databases and output the results per company database. I originally did a cursor, but my boss wants the query to be in a more readable format:
His ideal wish would be the query in a stored procedure and the cursor to create the input parameter for the stored procedure for the different databases.I've tried looking through some forums and googling some possibilities but can't seem to make any sense of them.
declare @dbname varchar(100)
,@sql varchar(max)
createtable #TempDBs (
dbname nvarchar(100)
, Orig_Jnl int
, BaseRef int
, Posting_Date date
[code]....
Hi!
I need to use two distincts databases on the same stored procedure. One, database1, is where I want to place the procedure, and where the table the procedure populates is (table1). The other, database2, hosts the table (table2) from where I select some data to put into table1 in database1.
Database1 name is fixed, while database2 name may change. So, I would like to pass database2 name as a parameter to the procedure. In this simple example, it works fine:
use database1
go
create procedure teste @db_name varchar(10) as
exec ('select * from ' + @db_name + '.dbo.table2')
But the problem is that in my procedure, database2 is used in a cursor, something like this:
create procedure myProcedure @year int, @pDatabase2 varchar(30) AS
declare ...
WHILE ...
BEGIN
...
declare cursor1 cursor for
select column1, column2 from @pDatabase2.dbo.table2
where ...
open cursor1
fetch next from cursor1 into ...
close cursor1
deallocate cursor1
-- insert data into table
INSERT INTO table1
VALUES...
....
And I get an error if I try to use the exec! How can I do it? Can anyone help me please?
Thank you!

I am doing some administrative tasks and need to collect some principals information from multiple instances and user databases.

I am trying to run an update query for 2 identical databases. I am using SQL 2000. Here is the code for the loop.

When I run this code it runs the update query on DB1 twice instead of switching to db2. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I discovered that everytime I need to add a database to my backup Maintenance Plan, after I select the new database from the drop-down of databases, the Destination automatically resets back to a default location.
I'm assuming this is a bug that will be resolved at some point, but in the meantime, I need to see if there is a way I can deal with this permanently. I am not the only one adding databases to the backup routine so I can't verify that this setting is properly changed every time we have a new database (which is about once a week).
Thanks in advance.
I have just upgraded a test server from sql server 2008 sp3 to sql server 2014 inplace upgrade. The compatability level of master database has not upgraded.

View 8 Replies View RelatedHi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie
exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created'
returns an int value as 1
(performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created')
but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie:
exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1'
which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc):
SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example).
My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert).
Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?
