I'm using SS 2012.
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@Source_Tbl sysname
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl
)
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
The input table can have several thousand rows.

Hi guys,
I have to work with some configuration data that is stored in rows as a comma separated values. Something like this:
Key1
A,1,Z,0;B,2,Y,9;C,,8,X;
Key2
Alpha,101;Beta,102;
Each group of data is separated by a semicolon and each value by a comma. The quantity of values may vary from one key to the other. Over this values sometimes I need to run some selects, so I went with the idea to get it as a table using CLR.
There I find the first problem: I didn't find a way to return a "variable" column with a CLR function, I had to create a SP. Ok, now I execute spGetConfigurationAsTable 'Key1' and I can obtain something like this:
A
1
Z
0
B
2
Y
9
C
3
X
8
But I'm faced with a second problem: How can I run a query over this? I didn't find a way to run a query over an output of a SP. And I can't INSERT the result into a temporary table because I cannot CREATE the table static (remember the columns may differ from one configuration to the other).
So, it seemed a pretty simple task and a neat solution, but I'm kinda stuck. Is there a way to run a query over the SP output? Or is there a way to have a variable table output from a CLR UDF?
Here is the code of the CLR SP I use to obtain the data, and also the (non-working) CLR user defined function.
THANKS!

I have a SQL function which returns a varchar(max). This gets truncated when the length is greater than 8000. Could you let me know how do I get the return value in a function without it being truncated.

I have this assignment where i have a table full of two digit exam scores and I have to write a function that eliminate x number of top values and x number of bottom values and return all the middle values. When the function is called, obviously a number is entered such as 3 and the top 3 and bottom 3 scores are not returned.
i.e. SELECT * FROM GetMiddleValues (3);
If anyone has any ideas on how to accomplish this, that would be great.
Thanks

When I use EncryptByKey function to encrypt text using AES 128 bit key, I get always null result. this is how I do the encryption:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ProcMyProc](@ClearText nvarchar(50))
AS
BEGIN
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY MyKey DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD= 'MY_Password_128';
Declare @Temp varbinary(8000);
Set @Temp =EncryptByKey(Key_GUID('MyKey'),@ClearText);
close symmetric key MyKey;
select @Temp as temp;
END
The result I get for this procedure is null. Is there something wrong with this code?

I have this code:
Declare @sql as varchar(4000)
declare @tbl as varchar(100)
declare @exists as bit
select @tbl = 'ACA_RSF'
select @sql = 'select count(*) from [member_score] where source_tbl = ''' + @tbl + ''''
print @sql
exec (@sql)
and it returns 18 million for a record count.I have this scalar returning function, which models the above, and it returns zero:
select dbo.fnGet_Rec_Count('ACA_RSF') as cnt
here is the code:
alter FUNCTION spGet_Rec_Count
(
@source_tbl varchar(100)
)
RETURNS bigint
AS
BEGIN
-- Declare the return variable here
DECLARE @count bigint
-- Add the T-SQL statements to compute the return value here
select @count = (select count(*) from [member_score] where source_tbl = ''' + @tbl + ''')
-- Return the result of the function
RETURN @count
END
GO
I get zero regardless of where @count is declared as in or bigint.

Hi all--I've got a derived column transformation where I am adding a field called Import_Date. I'm telling it to add as a new column and use the function "GetDate()" to populate the field. When I run the package, it returns NULL as the data value for all rows. Any idea why this might be happening?

Halo all
I have a problem with "timeout expired. Thei timeout periode elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occured because all pooled connections were use and max pool size was reached"
Then i explore and found out that i did not close my SqlDataReader, SqlDataAdapter, SqlCommand or my connection.
But i have a function that return a SqlDataReader.
Is this function will cause a connection problem?
Thanks in advance
Public Function GetDataReader(ByVal strSQL As String, ByVal DBCon As DB.DBConnection) As SqlDataReader Dim MyCommand As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(strSQL, DBCon.GetConnection())
If DBCon.GetConnection().State = ConnectionState.Closed Then DBCon.GetConnection().Open() End If
Dim dr As SqlDataReader = MyCommand.ExecuteReader()
Return dr

I'm trying desparately to write a PadRight function in SQL Server 2005. I seem to be failing miserably because the trailing spaces disappear when the data is returned. First of all, why does SQL Server think I want my string trimmed? And second, how do I overcome this? Code below:
Code Snippet
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[PadRight]
(
@sourceString NVARCHAR(4000),
@length INT,
@padCharacter NCHAR(1) = ' ',
@trimBeforePadding BIT = 1
)
RETURNS NVARCHAR(4000) AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @returnStringLength AS INT, @toReturn AS NVARCHAR(4000)
SET @toReturn = LEFT(@sourceString, @length)
IF @trimBeforePadding = 1
SET @toReturn = RTRIM(LTRIM(@toReturn))
SET @returnStringLength = LEN(@toReturn)
IF @returnStringLength < @length
SET @toReturn = @toReturn + REPLICATE(@padCharacter, @length - @returnStringLength)
RETURN @toReturn
END

Hi, I'm new to the forums, so hopefully I'm at the right place with my question...
Suppose I have a user-defined type in C#, which stands for simple point in 2D (let's call it Point). The type consists of two integer fields that represent the X and Y coordinate of the point. To make things a little more complicated, I want to store my values compressed using an algorithm, so I can't directly access X and Y without using a decompression algorithm.
I also have a table (PointTable), it's only column is called Data and is of type Point.
Now, writing and executing a simple query like
SELECT Data.ToString() FROM PointTable
is no problem at all.
What I want to do, is to be able to retrieve a table filled with the X and Y coordinates, so something like this:
SELECT PointX, PointY FROM GetTable()
where GetTable creates a table with columns PointX and PointY.
The function GetTable() should be implemented in C#, and work something like this: iterate through all Point values, decompress them, and create a new row from each Point.
I hope my intentions are clear and thanks for your help in advance!

I have a multi-level folders table, named folders with attributes of folder_id, parent_id and user_id, and have another table, users, contains all the user_id. I need to list all the users for each folder which has parent_id = 0 and its all sub-folders' users into one table. I have created a function to return a table with folder_id and user_id for one single folder. However, I don't know how to use this function to get the sub-folder's users and merge them together as one single table.
Here is my function:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[FolderUsers] (@fid int) RETURNS Table AS Return (select folder_id, f.user_id from folders f, users u where f.user_id = u.user_id and folder_id = @fid)Go
where @fid is the top folder with parent_id = 0 at here, the next level sub-folder's parent_id would be = @fid.
I am thinking to have recursive call from the parent_id = @fid that returns another table and have to concatenate to the called table. I have been thinking of store procedure, "insert into" and so on, but don't know how to implement it.
Do you have any good inspiration for me? Thank you in advance!

I have two tables. In tblUsers is all userdata. In table tblMoreInfo is some info on a user (0-15 records).Now I want to select tblUsers.username and tblUsers.usercode and the matching top 1 row tblMoreInfo.schoolname (top 1 based on tblMoreInfo.createdate) IF IT EVENT EXISTS from tblMoreInfo. If no matching record exists I want the value NULL to be returned for the schoolname...In all cases tblUsers.username must be unique (and I cant use the distinct keyword as im already using the row_number() function.Any help?Thanks!

I am trying to created a stored procedure/query to return all fields from any of my 43 look-up tables in my database. I have all of my look-up table names listed in a VB grid. I want the user to select a particular table, click edit (which pass's the table name) and have one stored procdure return all of the field in the table and populate them in a second VB form with the fields listed in a new grid.
Can one pass the "SQL string" to excute/ create a temp table.... A regular SP requires a specife table name to query from. Is there a way to do this without creating a temp table
Thanks for the help
EM.

I've been tearing my hair out over this UDF. The code works within astored procedure and also run ad-hoc against the database, but does notrun properly within my UDF. We've been using the SP, but I do need aUDF instead now.All users, including branch office, sub-companies and companies and soon up the lines are in the same table. I need a function which returnsa row for each level, eventually getting to the master company all theway at the top, but this UDF acts as though it can't enter the loop andonly inserts the @userID and @branchID rows. I have played with theWHILE condition to no avail.Any ideas on what I am missing?(Running against SQL Server 2000)---------------------------------------------------ALTER FUNCTION udfUplineGetCompany (@userID int)RETURNS @upline table (companyID int, companyname varchar(100), infovarchar(100))ASBEGINDECLARE @branchID intDECLARE @companyID intDECLARE @tempID int--Insert the original user dataINSERT INTO @uplineSELECT tblusersid, companyname, 'userID'FROM tblusersWHERE tblusersid = @useridSELECT @branchID = tblUsers.tblUsersIDFROM tblUsersINNER JOIN tblUsersUsersLnkON tblUsers.tblUsersID = tblUsersUsersLnk.tblUsersID_ParentWHERE tblUsersUsersLnk.tblUsersID_Child = @userid--Up one levelINSERT INTO @uplineSELECT tblusersid, companyname, 'branchID'FROM tblusersWHERE tblusersid = @branchidSET @tempID = @branchIDWHILE @@ROWCOUNT <> 0BEGINSELECT @companyID = tblUsers.tblUsersIDFROM tblUsersINNER JOIN tblUsersUsersLnkON tblUsers.tblUsersID = tblUsersUsersLnk.tblUsersID_ParentWHERE tblUsersUsersLnk.tblUsersID_Child = @tempIDAND tblUsersId <> 6--Insert a row for each level upINSERT INTO @uplineSELECT tblusersid, companyname, 'companyID'FROM tblusersWHERE tblusersid = @companyIDSET @tempID = @companyIDENDRETURNEND

Sp which inserts inforamtion into a table works fine. The trigger on that table which then inserts information into another table works fine. Only problem is that the SP will not return anything to Visual Basic.. Anyone know how to fix it?
SPbob
INsert into b values(1,1,2,2)
select 0
(this is a cut up version of the sp just to show about the way it is formated)
Please help.

I am trying to run queries on a table (table has zero rows). Inspite of giving 0 rows returned the query keeps on running and I have to cancel it. I tried inserting a dummy row into the table but even the insert operation is taking too long.Every query which I hit on the table just keeps on running without giving any result.
But this is not the case with other tables in the database.They are all running fine giving proper results. But this one table is behaving funny.

I am using UNION to return these 2 tables:
TableA
QID Q
1 Name?
2 Age?
3 Phone?
TableB
QID Q
1 DogName?
2 CatName?
When I use the following query;
SELECT * FROM TableA UNION SELECT * FROM TableB
I get the following return:
QID Q
1 whateverquestions
1
2

3
but I wish it to return in order of table invoke:
QID

Is that possible? (by not changing QID)
Cheers,
James
