SQL Server 2012 :: Update Temp Table Where The Column Names Are Unknown
Dec 26, 2013
In a stored procedure I dynamically create a temp table by selecting the name of Applications from a regular table. Then I add a date column and add the last 12 months. See attachment.
So far so good. Now I want to update the data in columns by querying another regular table. Normally it would be something like:
UPDATE ##TempTable
SET [columName] = (SELECT SUM(columName)
FROM RegularTable
WHERE FORMAT(RegularTable.Date,'MM/yyyy') = FORMAT(##TempMonths.x,'MM/yyyy'))
However, since I don't know what the name of the columns are at any given time, I need to do this dynamically.
how can I get the column names of a Temp table dynamically while doing an Update?

Hi,
I have a SP which returns a select query on a temp table so I get to choose column names
when I create the #table.
Can I determine column names myself based on the results of another query (in the SP)
before, or (preferably) after I create the #table and populate it.
My query is used to bind to a datagrid so I could use....
dataGrid.Columns[index].HeaderText and set it to a particular output parameter, but I want
to keep the code in the SQL.
Cheers

I am trying to use a stored procedure to update a column in a sql table using the value from a variable table I getting errors because my syntax is not correct. I think table aliases are not allowed in UPDATE statements.
This is my statement:
UPDATE [dbo].[sessions_teams] stc
SET stc.[Talks] = fmt.found_talks_type
FROM @Find_Missing_Talks fmt
WHERE stc.sessionid IN (SELECT sessionid FROM @Find_Missing_Talks)
AND stc.coupleid IN (SELECT coupleid FROM @Find_Missing_Talks)

Is there a way in SQL server to alias column names for a particular table and store the aliases somewhere such that you can access the aliases while querying? I have a table where I cannot change column names and I am trying to figure out if there is a way to alias them to make them more user friendly.

i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?
--create the procedure and insert into the temp table without creating it.
--no compilation error.
CREATE PROC testTemp
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO #tmp(dt)
SELECT GETDATE()
END
only on calling the proc does this give an execution error

I need to ensure some naming standards to users while creating tables.
All table name should be in same pattern
(ie., ) TeamName_EmpId_tablename
I need a way to restrict user to follow the naming standard. If any user tries to create table without the above naming standard system should not allow.

I could deploy across my environment, which is a mix of 2008R2/2012 servers, to give some information on log files. Running into a silly issue right off the bat. The table that DBCC LogInfo() conjures out of magic is different between the two. In 2012 it gained the RecoveryUnitID column. So I'm trying to write some logic to create a temp table based on which version is running. I would like to avoid a global temp table if possible. Here's what I've tried:
sp_executesql creates a table outside of the scope of my session:
DECLARE @PrVers NVARCHAR(128)
, @PrVersNum DECIMAL(10,2)
, @StageTable NVARCHAR(1024) = N''

Using a string of IDs passed into a stored procedure as a VARCHAR parameter ('1,2,100,1020,') in an IN without parsing the list to a temp table or table variable. Here's the situation, I've got a stored procedure that is called all the time. It's working with some larger tables (100+ Million rows). The procedure passes in as one of the variables a list of IDs for the large table. This list can have anywhere from 1 to ~100 IDs passed to it.
Currently, we are using a function to parse the list of IDs into a temp table then joining the temp table to get the query:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetStuff] (
@IdList varchar(max)
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED
[Code] .....
The problem we're running into is that since this proc gets called so often, we sometimes run into tempDB contention that slows this down. In my testing (unfortunately I don't have a good way of generating a production load) swapping the #table for an @table didn't make any difference which makes sense to me given that they are both allocated in the tempDB. One approach that I tried was that since the SELECT query is pretty simple, I moved it to dynamic SQL:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetStuff] (
@IdList varchar(max)
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED
[Code] ....
The problem I had there, is that it creates an Ad Hoc plan for the query and only reuses it if the same list of parameters are passed in, so I get a higher CPU cost because it compiles a plan and it also causes the plan cache to bloat since the parameter list is almost always different. Is there an approach that I haven't considered that may get the best of both worlds, avoiding or minimizing tempDB contention but also not having to compile a new plan every time the proc is run?

I have a student table like this studentid, schoolID, previousschoolid, gradelevel.
I would like to load this table every day from student system.
During the year, the student could change schoolid, whenever there is a change, I would put current records schoolid to the previous schoolid column, and set the schoolid as the newschoolid from student system.
My question in my merge statement something like below
Merge into student st
using (select * from InputStudent ins)
on st.id=ins.studentid
When matched then update
set st.schoolid=ins.schoolid
, st.previouschoolid= case when (st.schoolid<>ins.schoolid) then st.schoolid
else st.previouschoolid
end
, st.grade_level=ins.grade_level
;
My question is since schoolid is et at the first line of set statement, will the second line still catch what is the previous schoolid?

I want to write a DTS that will import a file every day. The problem is that the files is not named the same thing every day. There is a naming convention (SOMMDDYY.TRN) that it will follow. I want to import this file (which is a fixed width file) each day to a table (The table will be empty each day).
After it is imported, I want to look at the NAME of the file, and pull out the date portion of it. So, if the file is called SO122603.TRN, i want to pull out 122603, and then update my table with that date for every record. So when I am done, I will have a table that represents the file I imported, with one added column. This added column would be a Date/Time that has the date that was in the filename. How do I do this???

I have a field in a table that contains a different formula (varchar(1000)) for each record. It's along the lines of something like this, although each formula is different: ([ColumnA] - [ColumnB])/([ColumnC] - [ColumnD]). I plug that into a dynamic SQL statement so that it can get executed in a select statement.
Due to the variations of the formulas, checking for Divide by Zero, etc, we want to move this to a .NET method. We'd like to replace "ColumnA" and "ColumnB", etc., with the actual values so that we're passing something like (5-3)/(6-2). I haven't been able to figure out a way to do this without actually executing it. We don't want to pass the solution, but the equation filled with the actual values rather than the column names.

I am looking for a way to create a temp column who's value would take the value of another column and prepend a value like this to it "domain". This is the Select statement I currently have:
SELECT Nalphakey,[Last Name],[First Name],[User Name],[E-mail Address],[User Name]
FROM SkywardUserProfiles
I understand how to create an Alias for an existing column, but not sure how to do what I am wanting. I also understand that the following will do the concatenation that I need, but I have only used it in an UPDATE query, and I'm not sure how to use it within a Select statement or if that's even possible:
domainName=CONCAT('domain',User Name);

In a t-sql 2012 stored procedure, I would like to know how I can complete the task I am listing below:
In an existing t-sql 2012 stored procedure, there is a table called 'Atrn' that is truncated every night. The Table 'Atrn' has a column called 'ABS' that is populated with incorrect data.
The goal is to place the correct value into 'ABS' column that is located in the Atrn table while the t-sql 2012 stored procedure is excuting.
**Note: The goal is to fix the problem now since it is a production problem. The entire stored procedure that updates the 'dbo.Atrn' table will be rewritten in the near future.
My plan is to:
1. create a temp table called '#Atrnwork' that will contain the columns called,
Atrnworkid int, and ABSvalue with a double value.
2. The value in the column called Atrnworkid in the '#Atrnwork' table, will obtain its value from the key of the 'Atrn' called atrnid by doing a select into. At the same time, the value for ABSvalue will be obtained by running some sql when the select into occurs?
3. The main table called 'Atrn' will be changed with a update statement that looks something like:
Update Atrn
set ABS = ABSvalue
join Atrn.atrnid = #Atrnwork.Atrnworkid
In all can you tell me what a good solutiion is to solve this problem and/or display some sql on how to solve the problem listed above?
