Global Temp Table Vs. Permanent Table Use

Dec 17, 2004

I need to decide what is better to use: global temp table ( I can't use local one) or permanent table in SQL 2000 stored procedures. I extract data from linked server table and update several tables on our server.
Those procedures scheduled to run every 3 hours.

Another question: for some reasons when I used global temp table, I wasn't able to schedule multi steps with every step executing one of the stored procedures.I think global temp tables should be visible to other stored procedures, right?

Your suggestions?

Global Temp Table ....

Feb 24, 2005

Hi:

A regular permanent table is not an option:
Need to exec a procA which at the end also exec procB.

procA will insert to table A and also generate a intermidate result set to a ##A global table, it works fine at this point. However, when it exec the procB at the end of exec procA, the ##A global table is empty when entering procB.

The key is I want to pass a records set to the procB without using a tableTempB. Does a ## global table should be still alive until procB execution is done?

I also tried use table variable, but it does not look like to accept @tableA
as part of the procB's parameters.

Also tried function, but it could not support a #tempTable within it which will do a dynamic query insertion.

thanks
David

Global Temp Table Permissions

I have a pivot table implementation, part of which is posted below. Itreturns no errors in query analyzer, but when profiler is run, it showsthat "Error 208" is happening. I looked that up in BOL and it meansthat an object doesn't exist. This block of code below works fine on mylocal development machine, but not on our shared development serveruntil I go into the tempdb and make the user have the role db_owner.Even wierder is that when I do a select * from ##pivot there is noerror, but if I specify the single column name (pivot) i.e. selectpivot from ##pivot, it takes the error...Obviously this is a rights issue, but is there any way around thisother than making the user owner of tempdb??declare @select varchar(8000), @PackageId intset @PackageId = 10set @select = 'selectCompany = COALESCE(Users.Company, Contact.Company, ''''),SubContractPackageVendor.Id, SubContractPackageVendor.isActive,SubContractPackageVendor.isAwarded,SubContractPackageVendor.UserOrContactType,SubContractPackageVendor.UserOrContactIdFROMSubContractPackageVendorLEFT JOIN SubContractPackage ON SubContractPackageVendor.PackageId =SubContractPackage.IdLEFT JOIN Users ON UserOrContactType = ''User'' AND UserOrContactId =Users.UserIdLEFT JOIN UserRoles ON UserOrContactType = ''User'' ANDUserRoles.UserId = Users.UserId AND UserRoles.ProjectId =SubContractPackage.ProjectIdLEFT JOIN Role ON Role.RoleId = UserRoles.RoleIdLEFT JOIN Contact ON UserOrContactType = ''Contact'' ANDUserOrContactId = Contact.IdLEFT JOIN SubContractLineItem ONSubContractLineItem.RefType = ''Package'' ANDSubContractLineItem.RefId = SubContractPackageVendor.PackageIdLEFT JOIN SubContractLineItem as SubContractPackageVendorItem ONSubContractPackageVendorItem.RefType = ''PackageVendor'' ANDSubContractPackageVendorItem.RefId = SubContractPackageVendor.Id ANDSubContractPackageVendorItem.RefSubId = SubContractLineItem.IdWhereSubContractPackageVendor.PackageId = ' + CAST(@PackageId as varchar)+ 'GROUP BYSubContractPackageVendor.Id, SubContractPackageVendor.isActive,SubContractPackageVendor.isAwarded, Users.Company, Contact.Company,SubContractPackageVendor.UserOrContactType,SubContractPackageVendor.UserOrContactId'--print @sqldeclare @sumfunc varchar(100),@pivot varchar(100),@table varchar(100),@FieldPrefix varchar(5),@TotalFieldName varchar(50),@PivotFieldFilter varchar(1000)select@sumfunc ='Sum(isnull(SubContractPackageVendorItem.Total,0) )' ,@pivot ='SubContractLineItem.Category' ,@table ='SubContractLineItem' ,@FieldPrefix='~' ,@TotalFieldName = 'Total' ,@PivotFieldFilter = ' AND RefType=''Package'' AND RefId=' +CAST(@PackageId as varchar)set nocount onDECLARE @sql varchar(8000), @delim varchar(1), @TotalSql varchar(8000)SET NOCOUNT ONSET ANSI_WARNINGS OFFEXEC ('SELECT ' + @pivot + ' AS pivot INTO ##pivot FROM ' + @table + 'WHERE 1=2')EXEC ('INSERT INTO ##pivot SELECT DISTINCT ' + @pivot + ' FROM ' +@table + ' WHERE '+ @pivot + ' Is Not Null ' + @PivotFieldFilter)SELECT @sql='', @sumfunc=stuff(@sumfunc, len(@sumfunc), 1, ' END)' )SELECT @delim=CASE Sign( CharIndex('char',data_type)+CharIndex('date', data_type) )WHEN 0 THEN '' ELSE '''' ENDFROM tempdb.information_schema.columnsWHERE table_name='##pivot' AND column_name='pivot'select * from ##pivotDROP TABLE ##pivot

Is there a benefit to using global temp tables? I've read a few articles this morning and there doesn't seem to be a real need for them.

Temp Table Vs Global Temp Table

Jun 24, 1999

I think this is a very simple question, however, I don't know the
answer. What is the difference between a regular Temp table
and a Global Temp table? I need to create a temp table within
an sp that all users will use. I want the table recreated each
time someone accesses the sp, though, because some of the
same info may need to be inserted and I don't want any PK errors.

thanks!!

A Curious Error Message, Local Temp Vs. Global Temp Tables?!?!?

Nov 17, 2004

Hi all,

Looking at BOL for temp tables help, I discover that a local temp table (I want to only have life within my stored proc) SHOULD be visible to all (child) stored procs called by the papa stored proc.

However, the following code works just peachy when I use a GLOBAL temp table (i.e., ##MyTempTbl) but fails when I use a local temp table (i.e., #MyTempTable). Through trial and error, and careful weeding efforts, I know that the error I get on the local version is coming from the xp_sendmail call. The error I get is: ODBC error 208 (42S02) Invalid object name '#MyTempTbl'.

Here is the code that works:SET NOCOUNT ON

CREATE TABLE ##MyTempTbl (SeqNo int identity, MyWords varchar(1000))
INSERT ##MyTempTbl values ('Put your long message here.')
INSERT ##MyTempTbl values ('Put your second long message here.')
INSERT ##MyTempTbl values ('put your really, really LONG message (yeah, every guy says his message is the longest...whatever!')
DECLARE @cmd varchar(256)
DECLARE @LargestEventSize int
DECLARE @Width int, @Msg varchar(128)
SELECT @LargestEventSize = Max(Len(MyWords))
FROM ##MyTempTbl

SET @cmd = 'SELECT Cast(MyWords AS varchar(' +
CONVERT(varchar(5), @LargestEventSize) +
')) FROM ##MyTempTbl order by SeqNo'
SET @Width = @LargestEventSize + 1
SET @Msg = 'Here is the junk you asked about' + CHAR(13) + '----------------------------'
EXECUTE Master.dbo.xp_sendmail
'YoMama@WhoKnows.com',
@query = @cmd,
@no_header= 'TRUE',
@width = @Width,
@dbuse = 'MyDB',
@subject='none of your darn business',
@message= @Msg
DROP TABLE ##MyTempTbl

The only thing I change to make it fail is the table name, change it from ##MyTempTbl to #MyTempTbl, and it dashes the email hopes of the stored procedure upon the jagged rocks of electronic despair.

Any insight anyone? Or is BOL just full of...well..."stuff"?

SQL Server 2012 :: Stored Procedures Compiles Even When There Is No CREATE TABLE For A Temp Table

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

INSERT INTO #tmp(dt)
SELECT GETDATE()

only on calling the proc does this give an execution error

Power Pivot :: Temp Table Or Table Variable In Query (not Stored Procedure)?

Jul 19, 2012

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).

Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32

Simple example:
    declare @tTable(col1 int)
    insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
    select * from @tTable

Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.

But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.

Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.

SQL Tools :: Adding Column To A Table Causes Copying Data Into Temp Table

Sep 23, 2015

If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.

Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1]  and [MyColumn_LINE_5].

Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,

[Code] ....

The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.

Column Name Or Number Of Supplied Values Does Not Match Table Definition When Trying To Populate Temp Table

Jun 6, 2005

Hello,

I am receiving the following error:

Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition

I am trying to insert values into a temp table, using values from the table I copied the structure from, like this:

SELECT TOP 1 * INTO #tbl_User_Temp FROM tbl_User
TRUNCATE TABLE #tbl_User_Temp

INSERT INTO #tbl_User_Temp EXECUTE UserPersist_GetUserByCriteria @Gender = 'Male', @Culture = 'en-GB'

The SP UserPersist_GetByCriteria does a
"SELECT * FROM tbl_User WHERE gender = @Gender AND culture = @Culture",
so why am I receiving this error when both tables have the same
structure?

The error is being reported as coming from UserPersist_GetByCriteria on the "SELECT * FROM tbl_User" line.

Thanks,
Greg.

Transact SQL :: Table Structure - Inserting Data From Other Temp Table

Aug 14, 2015

Below is my table structure. And I am inserting data from other temp table.

CREATE TABLE #revf (
[Cusip] [VARCHAR](50) NULL, [sponfID] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, GroupSeries [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [tran] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [AddDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [SetDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [PoolNumber] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Aggregate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Price] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [NetAmount] [VARCHAR](max) NULL,

[Code] ....

Now in a next step I am deleting the records from #revf table. Please see the delete code below

DELETE
FROM #revf
WHERE fi_gnmaid IN (
SELECT DISTINCT r2.fi_gnmaid
FROM #revf r1, #revf r2

[Code] ...

I don't want to create this #rev table so that i can avoid the delete statement. But data should not affect. Can i rewrite the above as below:

SELECT [Cusip], [sponfID], GroupSeries, [tran], [AddDate], [SetDate], [PoolNumber], [Aggregate], [Price], [NetAmount], [Interest],
[Coupon], [TradeDate], [ReversalDate], [Description], [ImportDate], MAX([fi_gnmaid]) AS Fi_GNMAID, accounttype, [IgnoreFlag], [IgnoreReason], IncludeReversals, DatasetID, [DeloitteTaxComments], [ReconciliationID],

[Code] ....

If my above statement is wrong . Where i can improve here? And actually i am getting 4 rows difference.

Transact SQL :: Insert Data From Temp Table To Other Table

I want to insert the data from temp table to other table. Only condition is, it needs to sorted based on tool number and tool date. For example if we have ten records for tool number 1000, it should be order by tool number and then based on tool_dt. Both tables doesn't have any primary keys. Please find below my code. I removed all the unnecessary columns for simple understanding. INSERT INTO tool_summary  (tool_nbr, tool_dt) select tool_nbr, tool_dt from #tool order by tool_nbr, tool_dt...But this query is not working as expected. Data is getting shuffled.

Rename Table After Loading Data Into Temp Table

Dec 19, 2007

WE have a job that loads data from an Oralce DB into our SQL Server 2000 DB twice a day. The schedule has just changed so that now there is a possibility of having my west coast users impacted when it runs at 5 PM PST and my east coast users impacted when it runs at 7 AM EST. As a workaround, I have developed a DTS package that loads the data into temp tables instead of the real tables. IE. Oracle -> XTable_temp instead of Oracle -> XTable. The load sometimes takes about an hour to an hour and a half to load, so this solution works great, but I want to then lock the table, delete it and rename the temp table to table X. The pseudo code would be:

Begin Transaction


Lock Table XTable

Drop XTable

Alter Table XTable_temp rename to XTable

Release Lock XTable

End Transaction

Create XTable_temp

I see two issues with this solution. 1) I think if I can lock XTable that the lock would be released when the table is dropped and the XTable_temp was being renamed. 2) I can't find a command to rename a table.

Any ideas on a process that might help?


TIA,

A

Trigger- Dump 'inserted' Table To Temp Table

However, I need to do this for many tables, and don't want to list all the column names for each table/trigger (maintenance nightmare).

Can I dump the 'inserted' table to a temp table WITHOUT specifying the column names?

Table Variable Versus #Temp Table

Jan 17, 2008

In a previous post "Could #TempTable within SP cause lock on tempdb?" http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showpost.aspx?postid=2691763&siteid=1

It was obvious that we have to limit the use of #Temp table to a minimum. Let assume that some of the temp tables are really difficult to replace and we have to live with them.

Would it be easier on tempdb if the #TempTable is replaced by a table variable? Or do they all end up in tempdb?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Updating A Table With Data From A Temp Table

Oct 19, 2007

I am trying to update a table in one database with data from a temporary table which i created in the tempdb.

I want to update field1 in the table with the tempfield1 from the #temp_table

The code looks something like this:

Use master
UPDATE [dbname].dbo.table
SET [dbname].dbo.table.field1 = [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield1
WHERE ( [dbname].dbo.table.field2= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield2
AND [dbname].dbo.table.field3= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield3
AND [dbname].dbo.table.field4= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield4)

I get the following error:

Query Oracle Table In SQL &&amp; Put In Temp Table

Nov 6, 2006

Hi all,

I am querying a table in oracle, the server connection to the Oracle database is determined by a criteria. Though how can I put the results from the oracle query into a temp table ?

This is the code i'm using for the query:

DECLARE @cmd VARCHAR(500)
declare @Year varchar(25)
set @Year = '2006'

DECLARE @Link VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @Table VARCHAR(100)

select @Link = Server from tbl_Conn where Area='Floor'
select @Table = Target_Table from tbl_Conn where Area='Floor'

SET @cmd =
'
select * from OPENQUERY
(
' + @Link + ',
''
UPDATE '+ @Table +'
SET TARGET_VALUE = '+@Value+'
WHERE Date = '+@Year'
''
)
'
EXEC (@cmd)

How do I put the executed results into a TEMP table ?

Rgds,

Global Temp Tables

Aug 11, 1998

Hi everyone:

I am creating an sp, in which I check for the existence of a global temp table (using the exists)
statement. If the Exists returns a false, I move on to processing without the temp table. If it
returns a true, I utilize the temp table to do some inserts. I create the temp table when my
application first starts up. The problem that I am facing is that the check for the temp table`s
existence seems to be failing. Is there any other way to check for the existence of a global
temp table??

Any info really appreciated
Thanks
Nisha
