Select Query From A Stored Proc When The Values Can Be Blank.
Oct 10, 2006
Hi All,
I think what am trying to do is quite basic.
I have 3 paramaters@value1, @value2,@value3 being passed into a stored
proc and each of these parameters can be blank. If one of them is blank
and the rest of them have some valid values, then I should just exclude
the column check for the value that is blank.
For e.g if all my parameters being passed are non- empty then I would
do this
select * from tblName
where column1 like @value1 and column2 like @value2 and column3 like
@value3
else if I have one of the parameter being passed as empty, I should
ignore that parameter like
if@value1 is empty then my sql should be
select * from tblName
where column2 like @value2 and column3 like @value3
I don't want to do a dyanmic sql because of rights and security issue.
I want it through a stored procedure only.
Also, all the three columns can have null values in the table.
Please let me know what is the best possible way to do this. Thanks in
advance !.
HiI'm not sure what the best approach for this is:I have a stored procedure which I would like to use to return severaloutput values instead of returning a recordset.CREATE PROCEDURE Test (@param1 int, @param2 int OUTPUT, @param3 intOUTPUT) ASSELECT field2, field3 FROM Table WHERE field1 = @param1I would like to return @param2 as field2 and @param3 as field3How do I do this without using SELECT multiple times?THanks in advanceSam
I'm trying to write a Stored Proc to Insert records into a table in SQL Server 2000. The fields in the records to be inserted are from another table and from Parameters. I can't seem to figure out the syntax for this.
I created a test in MS Access and it loooks like this:
INSERT INTO PatientTripRegionCountry_Temp ( CountryID, RegionID, Country, PatientTripID ) SELECT Country.CountryID, Country.RegionID, Country.Country, 2 AS PatientTripID FROM Country
This works great in Access but not in SQL Server. In SQL Server 2 = @PatientTripID
I have an ASP that has been working fine for several months, but itsuddenly broke. I wonder if windows update has installed some securitypatch that is causing it.The problem is that I am calling a stored procedure via an ASP(classic, not .NET) , but nothing happens. The procedure doesn't work,and I don't get any error messages.I've tried dropping and re-creating the user and permissions, to noavail. If it was a permissions problem, there would be an errormessage. I trace the calls in Profiler, and it has no complaints. Thedatabase is getting the stored proc call.I finally got it to work again, but this is not a viable solution forour production environment:1. response.write the SQL call to the stored procedure from the ASPand copy the text to the clipboard.2. log in to QueryAnalyzer using the same user as used by the ASP.3. paste and run the SQL call to the stored proc in query analyzer.After I have done this, it not only works in Query Analyzer, but thenthe ASP works too. It continues to work, even after I reboot themachine. This is truly bizzare and has us stumped. My hunch is thatwindows update installed something that has created this issue, but Ihave not been able to track it down.

I have been using return values to check the status of my stored procedures called from an application. But how does one read the new raiserror values that are passed with sql server 2005 and using ado.net 2.0. Are they returned as parameters or as a dataset or what?
Hi allI hv made a stored procedure which printsvarious messages using Print statement(shown in bold)------------------------------------------------------------------------------ .....if (@current_date<@ed) and (@current_date>@sd) begin print 'Date Lies Between Boundary Limits' select * from membership where uid=@uid end else begin if(@pipe=1) begin if(@plan_id=1) begin print 'Monthly Plan Activated' update membership set start_date=@opt_sd,end_date=DateAdd(M,1,@opt_sd),status=@opt,pipeline=0,user_option='',plan_id=null,download_limit=20 where uid=@uid select * from membership where uid=@uid end else begin print 'Weekly Plan Activated' update membership set start_date=@opt_sd,end_date=DateAdd(D,7,@opt_sd),status=@opt,pipeline=0,user_option='',plan_id=null,download_limit=10 where uid=@uid select * from membership where uid=@uid end end end --------------Now I want to retrieve the messages disp by these Print statements in my asp.net page where i m calling this stored proc.Pls suggest RegardsMunish
Select hours from GetBaseStoredProc '10/01/2004' Where ReasonId = 1
where GetBaseStoredProc is a stored procedure that takes a date parameter and contains a select sql statement like: select reasonId, hours from my table where mydate = @myDate
(in reality, it's a much larger and more complicated statement, just using this as an example)
I guess I'm treating my storedProc like a view. If worse comes to worse, I suppose I could create a view (would rather not), but I'm wondering if what I want to do is possible, and I'm just not using the right syntax. Many thanks - (a former Oracle dev)
i have a vb app that is retriving data from an sql db using ado. i have a qry save in my db. i want to select from this qry where x in (1,2,3,4). i don't know how many values i will be putting into my where in statment. it could be one value or 100 values. below is my code. what i would like to do is pass one paramater to my stored proc and then break it up and use it in my select. my desired result is as follows
----------------------------------------------- declare cnt int declare TempFulLString nvarchar(5000) declare TempStyleFID int
TempFulLString = @str_TempString

I'm trying to call a stored proc with parameters without using EXEC statement and with only using a SELECT statement. I have the stored proc and need to call it from a 3rd party application which provides an interface to SQL server and does not support EXEC statements, but only SELECT statements. Is there a way this can be done?
Hey, I create a Select Statement in stored proc and I have printed the variable and it has the correct Select statement. My problem is now that I have the string I want how do I run it. Thanks
Hi, i'm an SQL newbie. I'm trying to figure out if there's an easy way to take a single field record set from a SELECT statement and then do an INSERT using that record set, all in one single Stored Procedure.
Here's what i tried to do, but this returns an error "The name "phonenumber" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted.".
The common field in both SELECT and INSERT is phonenumber.
quote:PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_select_and_insert]
@name varchar(20),
AS
SELECT phonenumber FROM USERLIST where OWNERNAME LIKE @name INSERT INTO LOGLOG (destination,content) values(phonenumber,'hello world');
GO
Hope that one of you can be kind enough to give me some guidance. Appreciate in advance. :)
There is a stored-procedure that it has multiple select statements as returned result set. How can I use SqlCommand.ExecuteReader to get all result set?
What if the multiple select statements is " FOR XML", how can I set all xml using ExecuteXmlReader?
I tried to use ExecuteReader or ExecuteXmlReader, but seems that I can only get back the result set of the first select statement, all others are messed up.
stored procedure example: NorthWind database:
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
Create PROCEDURE dbo.getShippersAndEmployeesXML AS
select * from Shippers for xml auto, elements select * from Employees for xml auto, elements
RETURN @@ERROR
GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
Using SQL Server 7 I am trying to modify an existing stored proc and make it more flexible. The below example represents the first part of that proc. The temp table that it should return is then used by another part of the proc (this query represents the foundation of my procedure). I need to figure a way to change the SQL Select statement, choosing between C.CONTRACTCODE and CB.EMPLOYERCODE on the fly. The query below will run but no records are returned. I am starting to believe/understand that I may not be able to use the @option variable the way I am currently.
I've tried creating two SQL statements, assigning them as strings to the @option variable, and using EXEC(@option). The only problem with this is that my temp table (#savingsdata1) goes out of scope as soon as the EXEC command is complete (which means I can not utilize the results for the rest of the procedure). Does anyone know how I can modify my procedure and incorporate the flexibility I've described?
Thanks,
Oliver
CREATE PROCEDURE test @ContractCode varchar(10), @dtFrom datetime, @dtTo datetime, @Umbrella int
AS
declare @option varchar(900)
if @umbrella = 0 set @option = 'c.contractcode' else set @option = 'cb.employercode'
select c.claimsno, c.attenddoctor, c.patientcode, p.sex, cb.employercode into #SavingsData1 from claimsa c inner join Patient p on c.patientcode = p.patientcode inner join claimsb cb on c.claimsno = cb.claimno where @option = @ContractCode and c.dateentered between @dtFrom and @dtTo and c.claimsno like 'P%' and p.sex in('M','F') and c.attenddoctor <> 'ZZZZ'
If I run this statement in Query Analyzer, it properly returns 1for my testing table. But if I put the statement into a storedprocedure, the stored procedure returns NULL. What am I doingwrong? I suspect it may be related to how I defined the parametersfor the stored procedure. Perhaps my definition of TableName andColumnName don't match what COLUMNPROPERTY and OBJECT_ID expect toreceive, but I don't know where to look for the function declarationsfor those. Any pointers would be appreciated.Select statement:SELECT COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID('Table1'), 'TestID', 'IsIdentity') ASIsIdentityTable definition:CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table1] ([TestID] [numeric](18, 0) IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[Description] [varchar] (50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]Stored Procedure definition:CREATE PROCEDURE spTest(@TableName varchar,@ColumnName varchar)AS SELECT COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(@TableName), @ColumnName,'IsIdentity') AS IsIdentity
I have a stored proc that I'm using to run a report. It works fine, but currently I'm using a parameter that is a single selection from a dropdown. I'd like to use multi select, but have not been able to get it to work.
In the data tab I'm currently using "text" for command type and :
exec sp_executesql @sql, N'@p_OfferStatus VARCHAR(100)', @p_OfferStatus = @p_OfferStatus when I run this in the data tab, it works fine, returning data, but when I try to preview it it tells me there are syntax errors. Anyone know the correct way to use multi selects with stored procs?
I have used several sql queris to generate a report. This queries pull out data from different tables. But sometimes at the same table too. Basically those are SELECT statements. I have created stored proc for each SELECT statement. now I'm wondering can I include all SELECT statements in one stored proc and run the report. If possible, can anyone show me the format?
Finally found what is causing my .net c# service application to return with Error 18456 (NT Authority/anonymous logon" severity 14 State 11.
It is connecting to a sql server db in another machine and running a stored procedure in that db. I found out that if I remove that two statements that create temp tables (with select INTO), the stored procedure executes without a problem.
Note that this stored procedure updates the tables does not have problems updated tables that are in the DB. I gets upset when creating temp tables though.
I cannot do away with those temp tables as they are needed in the calculation. How can I fix this problem?
Why would creating temp tables remotely cause this error? What am I missing in my set up. My service application connects with the integrated security = true. My service process installer has the account set to "User". What am I missing.
I am new to web services and as a DBA I only have limited .net experience. Our development team is creating a web services interface for our new IVR phone system, and we've decided on a solution that will send each of the phone call parameters from our database to the phone system in an XML based on line number and extension. I've found that Http Endpoints in sql server will be a perfect solution for exactly that and I won't need any .net to develop it. Thats the good news. There are, however, other requirements for our phone system to communicate back to our database. All of the examples I've seen for endpoints use a stored procedure performing a select statement.
Is it possible to create an endpoint that references a stored procedure performing an insert or update? To be more specific, can I create an endpoint that references a stored procedure that has parameters? If so, how do I pass those parameters through a web service request? Is it as simple as adding &variable="value" to the url?
If so I could develop this entire solution from the database side and not involve our .net programmer!
Another alternative: the phone system does have it own database in sql server. I'm not sure if our phone system provided can or will do this, but if they are willing to work with this, maybe a service broker can fit into this solution.
I have two tables, Employee and EmployeeEval, and need to try and Select the LastName, FirstName, EmployeeID, and DeptID from the Employee Table where there is no record of that employee in the EmployeeEval Table. I tried this and it won't work, I should get back like 80 employees when the query is written correctly: select e.deptid, (e.lastname + ', ' + e.firstname) as EmpName, e.employeeid from employee e INNER JOIN employeeeval ev ONe.employeeid <> ev.employeeid where periodid = 176 and e.companyid = '21' and e.FacilityID = '01'
I am working with a large application and am trying to track down a bug. I believe an error that occurs in the stored procedure isbubbling back up to the application and is causing the application not to run. Don't ask why, but we do not have some of the sourcecode that was used to build the application, so I am not able to trace into the code. So basically I want to examine the stored procedure. If I run the stored procedure through Query Analyzer, I get the following error message: Msg 2758, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GetPortalSettings, Line 74RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 60002 in sysmessages. (1 row(s) affected) (1 row(s) affected) I don't know if the error message is sufficient enough to cause the application from not running? Does anyone know? If the RAISERROR occursmdiway through the stored procedure, does the stored procedure terminate execution? Also, Is there a way to trace into a stored procedure through Query Analyzer? -------------------------------------------As a side note, below is a small portion of my stored proc where the error is being raised: SELECT @PortalPermissionValue = isnull(max(PermissionValue),0)FROM Permission, PermissionType, #GroupsWHERE Permission.ResourceId = @PortalIdAND Permission.PartyId = #Groups.PartyIdAND Permission.PermissionTypeId = PermissionType.PermissionTypeId IF @PortalPermissionValue = 0BEGIN RAISERROR (60002, 16, 1) return -3END
Hi,In the past I build up the query string within VB.NET page and easy to add the filtering statements in the SQL statement since it is just a string. For example, if user selected an option then include it in the filter, otherwise, just return all rows from table:Codes in ASPX.VB: Dim SQL as String="SELECT * From Table1" IF UserOption <> Null then SQL = SQL & " WHERE Column1=" UserOption" End ifNow, since I have a complicated page which need to use Stored Procedure to manapulate a temporary table before the final result. But I found when I want to add some user options similar to above, I found I don't know how to do it in Stored Procedure. In the Stored Procedure Property screen, I can't insert a IF..THEN statement within a SELECT statement. Seems I can only check the user option first and then determine the SELECT statement to use. That is: IF UserOption THEN SELECT statement 1 ELSE SELECT statement 2.But it is impossible for me to do this way since I'm not only one user option on the page. User usually can have several filters/selections on his screen. So if check which user option(s) are selected and write a static SELECT statement for it, I will have to program a complicated store procedure to cater all combinations for all user options (where some options may be null).Hope you can understanding what my mean and give me advices.Regards,Raymond
In some of our business object reports we have to create variables to decode values to what we want. I am trying to replicate this in SQL Server and remember doing this in SQL server 2000 years ago back can't remember the exact way to do it. I remember running a query and calling stored proc within query which would return the value I wanted but not sure if I can still do this in SQL server 2008 and by that I mean doing it within query or have to do it another way.
Basically what I want is to have a procedure with all the variables replicated within that procedure so that when I run a query I can just call the appropriate bit of code by passing a specific name like
select job.dept, dbo.decodevariable('ShowJobDesc' job.jobtitle), job.salary from job
so 'ShowJobDesc' and the job.jobtitle would be used to decode each job title to return job description.Just a bit unsure and can't remember if I am doing this the right way, is this possible?
Is it possible to pass 5 variables to a proc and have IT do the thinking and query structuring? An example of what I'm try to do is have one proc for getting vehicles by make, model, and years example of what I'd like to accomplish:veh_list_vehicleInfo_byDetails @TypeID int, @MakeID int, @ModelID int, @begYear int, @endYear int AS BEGIN
declare @SQL as nvarchar(500) set @SQL = 'SELECT a.ID, b.Model, c.Make, d.Name, a.Year, a.Mileage, a.Price, a.Sale, a.Certified_Pre_Owned FROM veh_vehicles a INNER JOIN veh_model b ON a.ModelID = b.ID INNER JOIN veh_make c ON a.MakeID = c.ID INNER JOIN veh_location d ON a.LocationID = d.ID'
decalre @ATTRIBUTES as nvarchar(500) if @TypeID is not null AND @TypeID > 0 begin set @ATTRIBUTES = @ATTRIBUTES + ' a.TypeID = ' + @TypeID end if @MakeID is not null AND @MakeID > 0 begin set @ATTRIBUTES = @ATTRIBUTES + ' a.MakeID = ' + @MakeID end
....etc etc.......
if Len(@ATTRIBUTES) > 0 begin EXEC(@SQL + ' WHERE ' + @ATTRIBUTES) End Else BEGIN EXEC(@SQL) END
END But I keep getting some errors regarding converting 'a.TypeID = ' to int ????? Please help!! I figured this would be easier than writing stored procs for EACH situation
Yesterday i face a strange SQL Server 2000 behaviour :-(
I had a query that was wrapped inside a stored procedure, as usual. Suddenly, the stored procedure execution time raised from 9 secs to 80.
So to understand where the problem was i cut and pasted the sp body's into a new query analyzer window an then executed it again. Speed back to 9 secs. Tried stored procedure again, and speed again set to 80 secs.
Tried to recompile sp. Nothing. Tried to restart SQL Server. Nothing. Tried to DROP & RE-CREATE sp. Done! Speed again at 9 secs.
My collegue asked me "why?", but i had no words. :confused: Do you have any explanation?
