Hi all,
What is the Difference between Stored Procedure and Inline Quries...... Is Stored Procedure is faster then Inline Query...
What is the professional Approch....
I m using Inline Quries in my Professional Project with Microsoft Application Block..... Someone Said me this is not a professional approch... use stored procedure instead of Inline Quries... i m so puzzled...
plz guide me..... :)

Hi all,I came across the below SQLServer stored procedure, I understand that it manipulates some XML data, but am not sure what it does.. Could any one pls explain me on the below procedure, Also, i do not see 'values' clause in the insert statement in the below procedure, is it valid to use in this way? (as per the syntax, 'values' clause is NOT optional)CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[OM_addObjData] @xml_Doc_sample varchar(max),@objID intASBEGIN--set @xml_Doc_sample = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><ArrayOfEXEData xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><EXEData><EXEName>exeName</EXEName><EXECommand>exeCommand</EXECommand></EXEData></ArrayOfEXEData>'declare @docIdx intEXECUTE sp_xml_preparedocument @docIdx OUTPUT, @xml_Doc_sampleinsert into OM_EXEselect @objID, exeName, exeCommand, IdEXE, EXEFrom OPENXML(@docIdx, N'/ArrayOfEXEData/EXEData', 2) With OM_EXEEXECUTE sp_xml_removedocument @docIdx ENDThanks in Advance,Shefali Mihir
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a list of articles stored in my sqlserver 2000 db. To get all the articles I have a stored procedure which just contains a simple select statement. When a user click to download an article, I want to increase the download count. I can do this with a separate stored procedure with an insert statement and passing in the document id, but I'm sure I could do it within one stored procedure, just not sure how. This is my current sp for getting the articles.CREATE PROCEDURE [sp_GetArticles] ASSELECT [DocumentID], [Title], [Description], [Downloads], [UploadDate], [Filesize] FROM Documents WHERE CategoryID = 1

My question is :
Why we are using udf inside stored procedures ?
Will it make any performance faster for the stored procedure to execute ?
awaiting your reply.
Thanks

Problem: Have to call SPs reside in 2 SQL server DBs which will return the table information, need to merge and perform sort the result and return the final result set. this is something like wrapper SP calling other SPs asynchronoulsy.
Can this be possible in SP / SQL functions to make asynchronous calls?
If yes can you please guide me to achive this.
If no, any alternative approach, or the reason why.
I appreciate your views on this.

Hello Gurus,
I have a stored procedure that gathers data from three tables and joins them, two of the tables need to have different rowcounts set, ie. pull only a certain number of rows from one table and only a certain number of rows from another table... The number of rows it should pull are stored within a table for each. Let me explain.... these tables hold Exchange storage group and mailstore data for a number of servers. Each server has a table entry with the number of child storage groups and each storage group has a table entry with the number of child mailstores. The tables get updated every two minutes via a program. I need to be able to get the most Data with the correct child counts for each server and storage group.
I believe that i've found a way to do this with a stored procedure that calls a table-valued function. The table-valued function simply filters down the storage group table to it's number of storage groups, ordered by timestamp. I may be way off here, but i can't tell because both the stored procedure and function check out fine but when i execute the stored procedure it gives me the following error:
Cannot find either column "dbo" or the user-defined function or aggregate "dbo.GetExchSGInfo", or the name is ambiguous.
My code is below:
Stored Procedure:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetExchangeData2]
@top INT,
@SID INT,
@SGCount INT,
@ServerName VARCHAR(50)
AS
Set @SID = (SELECT ServerID FROM dbo.Servers WHERE ServerName = @ServerName)
Set @top = (SELECT sum(Children) FROM dbo.ExchangeSG WHERE ServerID = @SID)
Set @SGCount = (SELECT SGCount FROM dbo.Servers WHERE ServerID = @SID)
SET ROWCOUNT @top
SELECT dbo.ExchangeMSData.*, dboExchangeMailStore.*, dbo.GetExchSGInfo(@SID,@SGCount) As ExchangeSG, dbo.Servers.*
FROM dbo.Servers INNER JOIN
ExchangeSG ON dbo.Servers.ServerID = ExchangeSG.ServerID INNER JOIN
dbo.ExchangeMailStore ON ExchangeSG.StorageGroupID = dbo.ExchangeMailStore.StorageGroupID INNER JOIN
dbo.ExchangeMSData ON dbo.ExchangeMailStore.MailstoreID = dbo.ExchangeMSData.MailstoreID
WHERE (dbo.Servers.ServerName = @ServerName)
ORDER BY dbo.ExchangeMSData.[TimeStamp] DESC, dbo.ExchangeSG.[TimeStamp] DESC
SET ROWCOUNT 0
And the Function:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[GetExchSGInfo]
(
@SID INT,
@SGCount INT
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
SELECT TOP (@SGCount) *
FROM dbo.ExchangeSG
WHERE ServerID = @SID
ORDER BY [TimeStamp]
)
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.
Hi everybody,
I would like to use MatLab built-in statistical functions (beta, gamma, normal, etc.) from inside a SQLServer stored proceudre. Does anyone know if possible? (Of course, If so, where can I get documentation for doing this?)
Thanks in advance!

Hi 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?
i have created the folowing function but keep geting an error.

Has anyone encountered cases in which a proc executed by DTS has the following behavior:
1) underperforms the same proc when executed in DTS as opposed to SQL Server Managemet Studio
2) underperforms an ad-hoc version of the same query (UPDATE) executed in SQL Server Managemet Studio
What could explain this?
Obviously,
All three scenarios are executed against the same database and hit the exact same tables and indices.
Query plans show that one step, a Clustered Index Seek, consumes most of the resources (57%) and for that the estimated rows = 1 and actual rows is 10 of 1000's time higher. (~ 23000).
The DTS execution effectively never finishes even after many hours (10+)
The Stored procedure execution will finish in 6 minutes (executed after the update ad-hoc query)
The Update ad-hoc query will finish in 2 minutes
Does anyone know how to call a stored procedure from within a SELECT statement? I know sybase has stored functions, but can not figure this out in SQL 7.0.

I want the ability to return the "amounts" as columns, but without having to go through the hassle of dealing with temp tables or cursors.
Hi all,
I am trying to debug stored procedure using visual studio. I right click on connection and checked 'Allow SQL/CLR debugging' .. the store procedure is not local and is on sql server.
Whenever I tried to right click stored procedure and select step into store procedure> i get following error
"User 'Unknown user' could not execute stored procedure 'master.dbo.sp_enable_sql_debug' on SQL server XXXXX. Click Help for more information"
I am not sure what needs to be done on sql server side
We tried to search for sp_enable_sql_debug but I could not find this stored procedure under master.
Some web page I came accross says that "I must have an administratorial rights to debug" but I am not sure what does that mean?
Please advise..
Thank You
Hi allTrying to figure out what you use ms sql functions for. I understand stored procedures and how to create them. the question is what is the real purpose of a ms sql function considering everything i have read so far makes me think that there is no valid use for them. You can do almost everything that a function does but in a stored procedure. If somebody can give me a good examplle of a sql function i would appreciate it very much.thanks
View 7 Replies View RelatedI hope I didnt POST in the wrong group. If I did sorry. Anyhoo, on to my question. I have searched the forums and didnt quite find what I was looking for so here goes..
I have create a function that is supposed to return the "SCOPE_IDENTITY" from a stored procedure that updates the database. I'm kinda lost as to how to get the SCOPE_IDENTITY into the function.
I have the following line in the function:
Dim retcode As Integer = cmd.Parameters.Add("@retcode", SqlDbType.Int).Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue
...
cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
and the following in the stored procedure
@retcode int=NULL OUTPUT
....
SELECT @retcode =SCOPE_IDENTITY()
RETURN @retcode
If I run the stored procedure by itself I get
@retcode = 135
@RETURN_VALUE = 135
So i know the stored procedure works but how do I get that return value into a asp.net function?
what is the difference between a Stored Procedure and a Function?tia,mcnewsxp

I have the following case.
I have a linked server and I want to execute SQL statements on that linked server which contains millions of records. so I decided to use SELECT * from OPENQUERY(RmtSrv,'SELECT * FROM RmtTbl WHERE Col = ' + @ColValue) but Unforetunatly the query is not succeeded because the OpenQuery doesn't accept parameters.
I used Scalar valued functions and built the query dynamically, but the Scalar valued functions doesn't execute dynamic SQL
ET @LinkedServerName = 'RmtSrv'
SET @RemoteTable= 'RmtTbl'
SET @Query = 'SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY({0}, ''SELECT Col1 FROM {1} WHERE Col2 = ''''{2}'''''') '
SET @Query = REPLACE(@Query, '{0}', @LinkedServerName)
SET @Query = REPLACE(@Query, '{1}', @RemoteTable)
SET @Query = REPLACE(@Query, '{2}', @Col2Value)
EXEC(@Query)
the above code is not executed because the functions doesn't execute dynamic queries.
I deleted the function above and wrote a Stored Procedure with the same code. but I can't query the stored procedure
SELECT GetColValue(Table1.Col1)
FROM Table1.
where the GetColValue is the name of the stored procedure.
Do you have any solution that I can use to perform Remote SQL statements considering the performancewise and the code shall be centralized in certain stored procedures and functions
the Remote server contains millions of records and I will use it from tens of applications and databases.
Hello @community,
I have a special problem.
I use under MS SQL 2005 a user-function which i use to check rights in my system . This function is used in a subselect in my queries.
Using MS SQL 2000 I have problems with this. The function itself works fine. It also works in the subselect if I use constant parameters for @matchids
If I user a column from the main select I get an error message. Server: Nachr.-Nr. 170, Schweregrad 15, Status 1, Zeile 7.
Here is my function:
CREATE FUNCTION sf_MatchRights
(
@uid int = 0,
@matchids varchar(4000) = '',
@delimiter char(1) = ','
)
RETURNS @results TABLE ( returncode int )
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @results VALUES (2)
DECLARE @value int
DECLARE cur CURSOR LOCAL FOR
SELECT [value] FROM fn_Split (@matchids,@delimiter)
OPEN cur
FETCH FROM cur INTO @value
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
IF ( @value = @uid ) UPDATE @results SET returncode = 1
IF ( @value < 0 )
BEGIN
IF (SELECT COUNT(*) AS Counter FROM krgroupusers WHERE luserid=@uid AND lgroupid=(@value*-1))>0 UPDATE @results SET returncode = 1
END
FETCH NEXT FROM cur INTO @value
END
CLOSE cur
DEALLOCATE cur
RETURN
END
And here my select:
SELECT lid, dtcreation AS xTime, dtedit AS xActivity, xstitle AS xTitle, xtcomment AS xDesc, lcreatorid AS xUid, 10024 AS xAppid
FROM xinnovator
WHERE xinnovator.xlcontact=@contact
AND (lcreatorid=@uid
OR (xlcategory IN (SELECT lid FROM xinnovatorcats WHERE (SELECT returncode FROM sf_MatchRights (@uid, xinnovatorcats.xtqkmembers,','))=1))
)
If I replace xinnovatorcats.xtqkmembers with e.g. '1|2|3', then it works.
I know I can use columns from main selects in the subselect, too. But it seems I make something wrong with the syntax in sql2000 which works fine under sql2005.
I am thankful for any help.
PS: Here is the split function I use inside die MatchRights function... made it once. Dont run this with tons of rows .
CREATE FUNCTION fn_Split(@text nvarchar(4000), @delimiter char(1) = ',')
RETURNS @Strings TABLE
(
position int IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
value nvarchar(4000)
)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @index int
SET @index = -1
WHILE (LEN(@text) > 0)
BEGIN
SET @index = CHARINDEX(@delimiter , @text)
IF (@index = 0) AND (LEN(@text) > 0)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @Strings VALUES (@text)
BREAK
END
IF (@index > 1)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @Strings VALUES (LEFT(@text, @index - 1))
SET @text = RIGHT(@text, (LEN(@text) - @index))
END
ELSE
SET @text = RIGHT(@text, (LEN(@text) - @index))
END
RETURN
END

View 5 Replies View RelatedSeems like I'm stealing all the threads here, : But I need to learn :) I have a StoredProcedure that needs to return values that other StoredProcedures return.Rather than have my DataAccess layer access the DB multiple times, I would like to call One stored Procedure, and have that stored procedure call the others to get the information I need. I think this way would be more efficient than accessing the DB multiple times. One of my SP is:SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, S.Name AS 'StatusName', S.ItemDetailStatusID, S.InProgress as 'StatusInProgress', S.Color AS 'StatusColor',T.[Name] AS 'TypeName', T.Prefix, T.Name AS 'ItemDetailTypeName', T.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails I INNER JOIN Item.ItemDetailStatus S ON I.ItemDetailStatusID = S.ItemDetailStatusID INNER JOIN [Item].ItemDetailTypes T ON I.ItemDetailTypeID = T.ItemDetailTypeID However, I already have StoredProcedures that return the exact same data from the ItemDetailStatus table and ItemDetailTypes table.Would it be better to do it above, and have more code to change when a new column/field is added, or more checks, or do something like:(This is not propper SQL) SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailStatusInfo I.ItemDetailStatusID, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailTypeInfo I.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails IOr something like that...

I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...
Any idea how to solve this problem?

Greetings:
I have MSSQL 2005. On earlier versions of MSSQL saving a stored procedure wasn't a confusing action. However, every time I try to save my completed stored procedure (parsed successfully ) I'm prompted to save it as a query on the hard drive.
How do I cause the 'Save' action to add the new stored procedure to my database's list of stored procedures?
Thanks!
Hi There,
I've written an inline table-valued function in SQL such as the following:
ALTER FUNCTION dbo.GetCityByID( @CityID int)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN(
SELECT
Name,
Url
FROM Cities
WHERE (CityID = @CityID) )
suppose that Cities table includes three fields (CityID, Name, Url).
By the way I wrote a store procedure as follow:
ALTER PROCEDURE MyProcedure ( @MyID int)
AS
SELECT
CountryID,
OriginCityID,
DestCityID
FROM
MyTable
WHERE (MyID = @MyID)
The OriginCityID and DestCityID are related to CityID in Cities table. I wanna get the name
and url of each city by its ID through this stored procedue by making relation to Cities table.
so I call GetCityByID function in my stored procedure like this:
ALTER PROCEDURE MyProcedure ( @MyID int)
AS
SELECT
CountryID,
dbo.GetCityByID(OriginCityID),
dbo.GetCityByID(DestCityID)
FROM
MyTable
WHERE (MyID = @MyID)
this procedure dosn't work an returns error.
What's your solution for getting information from Cities table for OriginCityID and DestCityID?
Thank you in advance.

Hi All,
Novice question. Would someone explain tell me what a view is used for? Also I am confused about the difference between a function and a stored procedure. They both seem like functions to me.
