I am trying to modify the C# example given in the "Invoking CLR User-Defined Aggregate Functions" in SQL Server 2005 Books Online. I want to add a parameter that is used as the list delimeter, instead of the hard coded comma that is used. I am not a C# programmer and don't know where to begin. Please help!

I have a table T1 with two fields. Field1 has repeated values and Field2 has unique values for any given Field1 value. F1 can have maybe 1000 different values while F2 maybe 20.
I would like to create a T2 table where Field1 has unique values and Field2 contains the concatenation of T1.Field1 values for each Field1 value.
T1 F1F2 1a 1b 2a 2c 2d
T2 F1F2 1ab 2acd
It is like a user defined aggregate function for concatenation. Any idea?
I'm attempting to write an aggregate function in C++ to compare performance with the equivalent function in C#.
However, I'm having problems getting SQL Server to see the function in the assembly. It allows me to load the assembly into the database, but I can't see the type in it.
Here's my code:
// CPPTest.h
#pragma once
using namespace System; using namespace Microsoft::SqlServer::Server; using namespace System::Data::SqlTypes; using namespace System::Data::SqlClient;
Compile it with /clr:safe option and it can be loaded as an assembly into SQL Server 2005 (9.0.1399), but the AGG_CPP_OR type is not seen as an aggregate function. I've also tried implementing IBinarySerialize and setting Format to Format::UserDefined (and putting in MaxByteSize) but it makes no difference.
I am trying to get a random value from a select statement. The only way I thought to do this would be to make a User Defined Aggregate Function at returns one of the rows at random. For example MIN(column) return the minimum value of that column, MAX(column) returns the maximum. I would like something like RANDOM(column) to return one of the values at random.
For example: select RANDOM(Name) from Names
So I went and created a user defined aggregate function:
s = New SqlString(s.ToString & "|" & value.ToString)
x = x + 1
End Sub
Public Sub Merge(ByVal value As GetRandom)
End Sub
Public Function Terminate() As SqlString
Dim d() As String = {"|"}
Return New SqlString(s.ToString.Split(d, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)(Rnd() * x))
End Function
End Structure
The problem is that it wont deploy to the SQL Server because the varible "s" is not serilizable. Here is the error message:
Type "GetRandomFunction.GetRandom.GetRandom" is marked for native serialization, but field "s" of type "GetRandomFunction.GetRandom.GetRandom" is not valid for native serialization.
Can any help me with this? Is there any other way of storing the strings that will work?
I want to write a Java User-defined aggregate (UDA). Shall I use J#?
I converted the C# example given in books online to J#. I am getting this error (as well as whole bunch of warning when I create the assembly.)
Msg 6558, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
CREATE AGGREGATE failed because type 'Concatenate' does not conform to UDAGG specification due to method 'Init'.
Msg 6597, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
CREATE AGGREGATE failed.
btw, I have the use unsafe assembly options when creating the assembly otherwise I get this error:
Msg 6265, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
CREATE ASSEMBLY failed because type "com.ms.vjsharp.cor.COMUtils" in safe assembly "vjscor" has a pinvokeimpl method. P/Invoke is not allowed in safe assemblies.
Warning: The Microsoft .Net frameworks assembly 'vjscor, version=2.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorarchitecture=x86.' you are registering is not fully tested in SQL Server hosted environment.
From the warning, I can tell the J# UDA is not tested.
Can someone confirm whether J# UDA is supported or not?
Thanks!

Dear all I wants to run sql server user defined function when linked two server.
I have linked two sql server.There is one function called getenc().This function created on first server.What i want.I wants to run this user defined function on the second sql server. can any one help me?
This is my problem: I do not know how to get the servername from a C# user defined function . Is this possible?
I am writing a User Defined Function (UDF). Inside of this user defined function I need the name of the databaseserver that it is running on. Does anyone have an idea how I might do this? Is there an enviromental variable that I could access within the C# code I use to write the UDF?
I could always use a parameter to pass in the name of the server, but I would like to have as few parameters as possible.
I have a function that accespts a string and a delimeter returns the results in a temp table. I am using the funtion for one of the columns in my view that needs be to split and display the column into different columns. The view takes for ever to run and finally it doesn't split and doesn't display in the column.
Function: ----------------------------------- ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[func_Split] ( @DelimitedString varchar(8000),
[Code].....
Not sure what I am missing in the above view why it doesn't split the string.
EXEC master.dbo.xp_msver ProductVersion can be used to return the server version in a resultset. I need this to do some conditional coding between varchar and varchar(max) in a UDF, so size of the text I return must be different between the SQL2000 and SQL2005.
I cant call an xp_ that returns a resultset within a UDF can I, so how can I get the SQL version?
I have a User Defined Function in my SQL Server 2000 database which takes a string and adds an integer quantity to it. The function basically takes the string (string because of first character and spaces) and adds an integer to it creating a new number (starting number and ending number concept).If I pass in a string that has a letter for the first character, it works fine. However, if the first character is an integer it trims out all 0s and whitespace and ruins the necessary formatting. Note, the formatting is always the same - x xxx xxxx xx. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.Example:D 499 8900 01 plus a Quantity of 10 returns D 499 89000 11 which is perfect.However,0 076 0000 03 plus a Quantity of 1 returns 764 764 (it should be 0 076 0000 04)------------------------------------CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[NEW_End_NR2]( @OldStr as char(20), @Quantity int )RETURNS @NewNR_Tbl TABLE (New_EndNr char(20) primary key)AS BEGIN DECLARE @NewStr char(20) DECLARE @addNr integerBEGIN Set @addNr = @Quantity set @NewStr = (select REPLACE(@OldStr,left(@OldStr, 1),'')) set @NewStr = (select REPLACE(@NewStr,' ', '')) + @addNr set @NewStr = (SELECT left(@OldStr, 1) + SPACE(1) + left(@NewStr,3) + SPACE(1) + left(REPLACE(@NewStr, left(@NewStr,3), ''), 4) + SPACE(1) + left(REPLACE(@NewStr, left(@NewStr,7), ''), 3)) BEGIN INSERT INTO @NewNR_Tbl (New_EndNr) VALUES(@NewStr) END END RETURNEND

hi,it might be a very stupid question but i want to know whether anexecution plan is created in user defined functions in sql server 2000like stored procedures.Thanks.
I have this function in access I need to be able to use in ms sql. Having problems trying to get it to work. The function gets rid of the leading zeros if the field being past dosn't have any non number characters.For example:TrimZero("000000001023") > "1023"TrimZero("E1025") > "E1025"TrimZero("000000021021") > "21021"TrimZero("R5545") > "R5545"Here is the function that works in access:Public Function TrimZero(strField As Variant) As String Dim strReturn As String If IsNull(strField) = True Then strReturn = "" Else strReturn = strField Do While Left(strReturn, 1) = "0" strReturn = Mid(strReturn, 2) Loop End If TrimZero = strReturnEnd Function
I have a UDF that takes my input and returns the next valid business day date. My valid date excludes weekends and holidays. It works perfect except for one issue. It doesn't check to see if today's date is a holiday. I pass a query to sql server like so " select dbo.getstartdate('01/ 10/2007',2)" It then moves ahead two business days and returns that date.

Hi everyone, I am tring to pass acomma delimited string to a function and this function is parsing the string so that I can see individual values so for example I am passing 1,2,3,4,5 as a parameter to my function and I am parsing this string so that I can write something like this Select * from tableA where userID in(1,2,3,4) It is working fine. Only problem is if the user passes word 'all' instead of 1,2,3,4 then I have to doSelect * from tableA My function looks like this. How can I modify this function if I pass 'all' as a paramater. Any help will be appreciated.CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[ParseText2File] (@p_text varchar(4000), @p_Delimeter char(1)) RETURNS @results TABLE (id varchar(100)) AS BEGIN declare @i1 varchar(200) declare @i2 varchar(200) declare @tempResults Table (id varchar(100)) while len(@p_text) > 0 and charindex (@p_Delimeter, @p_text) <> 0 begin select @i1 = left(@p_text, charindex(@p_Delimeter, @p_text) - 1) insert @tempResults select @i1 select @p_text = right(@p_text, len(@p_text) - charindex(@p_Delimeter,@p_text)) end insert @tempResults select @p_text insert @results select * from @tempResults return END Thanks
I am a new user for SQL server. Coming from an oracle background, I find it very difficult to live without user defined functions. At the moment, I urgently need to have a function returning an custom-made ID string, so that it can be used in one of my stored procedures. I have heard the rumours that SQL server 7 does NOT support user defined functions, (which SQL 6.5 does). I would be really grateful if anyone can clarify this for me, and if possible, suggest a get-around approach.
I am trying to compare the data from one table (shipments) with the data from a view. The point of the function is to match the correct territory with the account depending on the data. Basically, I this deals with accounts that are transfering from one territory to another. The transfers take effect on the first day of the month, retroactive, therefore we need to allocate the sales data to the correct territory in the shipments table. Here is my function. Can someone tell me how I can get this to work and insert a territory ID for the account that has transfered into the shipments table?
CREATE FUNCTION fnShipments () RETURNS @Shipments TABLE (AccountID CHAR(10), DateInvoice DateTime, DollarShipments Money, TerritoryID CHAR(10)) AS BEGIN INSERT @Shipments (AccountID, DateInvoice, DollarShipments, TerritoryID) SELECT Shipments.AccountID, Shipments.DateInvoice, DollarShipments, ISNULL((SELECT TerritoryID FROM vwAccountTransfers
WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID
AND vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth =
(SELECT MIN(EffectiveMonth) FROM vwAccountTransfers
WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID AND DatePart(m,Shipments.DateInvoice) < vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth)), (SELECT TerritoryID FROM vwAccountTransfers WHERE Shipments.AccountID = vwAccountTransfers.AccountID AND vwAccountTransfers.EffectiveMonth Is Null ) ) AS Territory FROM Shipments
ORDER BY Shipments.AccountID, Shipments.DateInvoice; RETURN END
User: Will be sending me a datetime e.g '9 Nov 2004 15:00:00' I want the UDF to do the following for me Return in hours the difference between what the user has send and now (lets say now = '10 Nov 2004 11:00:00') So the UDF will return to me 20. But I dont want 20, I want the UDF to avoid any all hours which are not work related (any time after 16h00 until 8h00 in the morning), so I want this UDF to return 4. That means from '9 Nov 2004 15:00:00' I have calculated 1hr until 16h00 and 3hrs from 8 until 11h00 on '10 Nov 2004 11:00:00'
AGAIN IT MUST NOT CALCULATE WEEKENDS. Lets say '12 Nov 2004 15:00:00' was Friday and now = '15 Nov 2004 11:00:00', I must still get 4 as a return from UDF
I would also like now to be my getdate(), but it seems like you can't use it in UDF
Hi, Iam working on one user defined function which will take week & year as argument and returns sunday date of that particular week in that year. for example if i give (15,2007) as argument it shud give 2007-04-08 as result. Plz anybody help this on this issue.
I am accustomed to doing most of my function work in Access, but the boss would really like it if I could shedule some cubes to do the stuff that takes forever when you run it live.
To that end, I have an Access function that I call to get a field value for a query. I would like to be able to create an User Defined Function on the SQL server and call that function as a field value in a view. I have searched the forums and have not really found anything that wants to make sense to me as to how to do this.
The access function is as follows:
Public Function BuyerDeltas(IFSDate As Date, PODate As Date) As Long
If IFSDate < (Date + 14) Then BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 3 - PODate ElseIf IFSDate < (Date + 29) Then BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 7 - PODate ElseIf IFSDate > (Date + 28) Then BuyerDeltas = IFSDate - 10 - PODate Else MsgBox "This should not be possible!", vbOKOnly, "Fix It!!!!!!!" End If
End Function
The view that this is called from contains the IFSDate and PODate fields and I am able to call the function from the access query, but this is completely different than what I have seen in the help files on SQL.
I would love to be able to keep plugging away at doing this myself, but the boss also is pushing me to get it done and he doesn't want me taking forever to do it.
hai, the problem is - I have created a userdefined function using SQL 2000 create function getfulldate (@date varchar(10))returns datetimeasbegindeclare @getfulldate datetime set @getfulldate = dateadd (mi,55,@date) return @getfulldateend and normally we call this in the SQL statements as select *, dbo.getfulldate('2006-05-03') from emp This works fine and what I need was, I need to invoke the user-defined function like select *, getfulldate('2006-05-03') from emp that is, without using "dbo". If I call in that manner, it gives error as - 'getfulldate' is not a recognized function name. So, here what is the purpose of dbo and can I call in my desired manner as mentioned above. anyone guide me, thanks!
Hi,How to exec a SQL user defined function in query analyzer when it accepts parameters.. I know for a stored procedure we can write EXEC nameofstored procedure abc (@abc is the parameter passed).. But How to run a SQL function ?Thanks
I have a sproc that passes an ID to a user defined function. I just realized that the udf can only return scalar type value. I need it to return a varchar(10). How can i do this with similiar functionality. Any ideas?
I have a requirement where i need to get the current time/date within a Function. As getDate function is a non deterministic function it can not be used with in a function. Your guidence in this regard is greately appreciated.
