Okay, if you use PRINT in the stored procedure and execute the procedure in Management Studio, the output will come to the message window in Management Studio.
When you're executing an application which then calls a stored procedure, AFAIK there's no way to print any messages to a Management Studio window.
However, if you're using SqlConnection in the application, you can wire InfoMessage[^] event. Whatever you print in the procedure will come to this event and you can redirect it to the place you want.
Was this what you we're after?
If you want the output to the server side where SQL Server is running, you can:
- write the message to a table
- write it to the sqlserver log file
- write it to some other file
- send it using mail
- create a notification

Does the event fire on the print command in the proc or when the procedure comepletes?

Hi,
My first guess would be that when the execution completes, but I'll run few tests this evening since I'm not sure about asynchronous execution.

There's not much on your post to work with but few things you should check:
Is the connect slow. If the connect is slow, you should try to find a way to speed up finding the server and the share. Since you use names for server, perhaps DNS is responding slowly etc. Talk with the people responsible for your network. Also you can try to use IP-address instead of server name.
Slow selects, how much data do you transfer. If you need for example just one row in your application, do you fetch all rows from a table in database and then filter the data in the application. Always use the filtering abilities of the database. Also do not select columns you don't need.
Slow modifications, try to make all modifications at once. For example avoid situations where you first insert a row and then later update it. If you have such operations, prepare the data as much as you can before transfering it to the database.
Modeling, perhaps some operations are slow because of the data modeling. Review your relational model critically and for example eliminate duplicate data, normalize etc.
And of course check that the network is working correctly. For example copy a big file to that directory and see if it's copied in reasonable time.

There is little you can do other than use a different DBMS. Microsoft Access is a "file share" based database, as opposed to a server dbms, so all the data delivery is accomplished using the underlying file sharing. As a result, MSAccess is a real dog in any shared multi-user scenarios. (or even a single user network share scenario). Try converting the database to use Sql Server Express, MySql, Firebird, or any other server based dbms.

Hey,
Can you guide me in brief and tell me how can I make the simplest form of a master-details form using the boody .Net database wizard.. you know the add new data source thing from the data menu.. God, I feel really terrible about this when I thought I dont have to go through all the trouble doing it the hard way, the point is, how do you usually handle it people?? Am I the only one that spends about a week to get such a simple database form designed and working with update, insert and delete functions?? Isn't there any easy way to handle this??
For God's sake help me if you have any clue cuz it's getting me crazy!!
ps. Hi Mika

Hi,
I actually never use typed datasets since in my opinion they lack very much functionality when you want to do anything "more complex" (but I had to give it a try in this case  ).
I understood that the problem isn't in creating the typed dataset, but how to build the form so that when you click on the first datagridview (or some other control) which represents the parent table, how to design the UI so that the child datagridview automatically shows the records corresponding to the selected parent row?
If that was correct, the trick is that when designing the second datagridview you define the datasource as the foreign key from the first binding source.
First bind the parent datagridview normally. Then when binding the child datagridview open the datasource combo and you should see a plus sign before the previously created bindingsource (for the parent datagridview) object. When you expand that, you should see the foreign key name defined in the typed dataset. Select it as datasource. After that you're able to select stuff from the child table and it should work.

Thanks Mika, I should try that now and if it works, it is exactly what I need so thanks again mate

Hey Mika,
It's finally working! Thanks to you and a couple of modifications.. You know what, I think I'll have to share my experience in an article cuz it's a bit tricky to explain without pictures, I think what makes it difficult is that database I'm working with is Oracle God I'm sorry Mika but I think my bird is dying!! I'll let you know when I have this article ready!
Many thanks Mika.. Please pray for my bird

Don't quite understand why it would be any more difficult than with SQL Server or any other database because you're still using datasets. Perhaps something in the data model?

Hi All,
I have two tables like Casual_Employee_Details, Permanent_Employee_Table and the columns in both tables are same.
I have a stored procedure as follows
CREATE PROCEDURE getEmpId
(
@Eid int,
@EName varchar(50)
)
AS
insert into Casual_Employee_Details(n_EmpId,c_EmpName)values(@EmpId,@EmpName)
GO
Now i want to pass table name also dynamically how can it be done.
help me out with code if possible..
So that if if i execute it should as follows
Execute dbo.getEmpId 'tableName',Eid,'Ename'
Thanks,
Ashok

you have to concatenate the whole sql string to a variable like
set @sql = 'insert into ' + QUOTENAME(@tablename)
+ ' (n_EmpId,c_EmpName)values('
+ convert(varchar(50), @EmpId)
+ ',' + QUOTENAME(@EmpName, '''') + ')'
exec (@sql)
However it's not typically a good idea to use dynamic sql this way. It may lead to several problems.
Modification, added QUOTENAME to prevent injections.

Mika Wendelius wrote: However it's not typically a good idea to use dynamic sql this way
It is posslble to do some verification before you start the concatenation. For instance. you can look up INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES to ensure that the a table with the given name exists. If it doesn't you can exit the sproc.
You can also pass parameters to dynamic SQL by using sp_executesql[^] instead of EXEC. That way you are not concatenating potentially dangerous data into the SQL String, you're passing it as a parameter as normal.

You're right, there are numerous ways to perform checks and prevent injections etc. but since I wasn't sure why the OP wanted to use dynamic sql for the insert (it didn't quite make sense since for example columns were hardcoded) I thought it would be wise if he thinks about it once more.
If dynamic handling for the table name is still required, at least it's thoroughly considered.
I just noticed that I forgot to use QUOTENAME. Think I should add it to the answer. Another way is to use sp_executesql as you mentioned.

Hi all,
Can anyone explain other possible mechanisms to handle this scenario in detail.
Any references could be helpful..
thanks,

As Colin and I wrote you can use either sp_executesql or exec to execute a dynamic sql statement. Both will do as long as you prevent yourself from sql injections.
In your original post you described that you want to pass the table name as a parameter and use it in your sql statement. However your column names were hardcoded in the statement so it makes me wonder, why do you want to change the table name. First impression is that you have several tables with the same structure. If that's correct then again, why?

My issue is something like this
i have a table Master_Info with columns(RecId(PK),Emp_Name,DOB) where RecId is primary key and increments by 1 for each entry.
RecId Emp_Name DOB
1 abc 01/01/2009
2 xyz 02/02/2009
Now for each Employee I have separate table to track hi daily details Employee_Details_(RecId) with columns (Working_Date,No_of_Hours)
So for user "abc" the table name will be Employee_Details_1,for "xyz" it will be Employee_Details_2
Now I want to insert the records for particular user in Employee_Details_(RecId) table using the stored procedure.
What are the suggested ways to do this task?
Thanks,
Ashok
