Problem with Identity Specification in SQL Server 2008

I would try a natural join first since the fields joining the tables have the same names.

SyncFolder is a very easy to use but powerful solution for the synchronization of two or more folders/computers. It can backup all your important data into a zip-archive and has many settings to customize the synchronization... SyncFolder

Using Extended stored proc's within functions / dynamic SQL

Hello...

I'm using T-SQL. What I'm trying to do is (within a function) read a value from a specified dynamic column, and return that value for usage elsewhere. The following lines would do the trick:

[code]
SET @SqlString = 'SELECT @Value = [' +@ColumnName +'] FROM SettingTable WHERE ID = 50'

exec sp_executeSql @SqlString,N'@Value int OUTPUT', @Value OUTPUT
[/code]

However, I can't use that within a function (Only functions and extended stored procedures can be executed from within a function), even though sp_help tells me that sp_executeSql is an extended stored procedure. Is there some way I should be calling the executesql proc that would allow it? Or is there another way I should be generating my dynamic query that would be allowed within a function, and which will allow me to get an output value from the query?

I honestly didn't know either, but a quick search found

http://www.sqlteam.com/article/return-recordsets-from-dynamic-queries-called-by-exec[^]
and
http://www.sommarskog.se/dynamic_sql.html[^].
The second article looks very complete, and it looks like you might want to check out sp_executesql.

MS SQL query syntax for full text search

16-Apr-09 21:01

Hi,

If you just what to store the COUNT value in a variable (@a) you could do this.

declare @a int
select @a = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table)

Now select the count value from the variable...
select @a

Hii,

I have a table in a database called dictionary.
I have four columns namely id, word , keyword and meaning.
I have indexed word, keyword and meaning column in a catalog for full text searching of any word.
I want full text searching of any word in these two column and return meaning of that word found in word and keyword column.
I searched the table for the word using following query :

 string wordSearched=textBox1.Text;
"SELECT meaning FROM dictionary WHERE CONTAINS(word, keyword, '+"wordSearched"+')";

But am unable to get the full text search result.
Am i wrong in my syntax for querying full text search.
or may be can anyone help it out giving the proper syntax to query word and keyword column.
Thanks in Advance!

Aspiring Techie,
Vishnu Nath

Hello,

You can use asterisk.

SELECT meaning FROM dictionary WHERE CONTAINS(*, '+"wordSearched"+')

SELECT meaning FROM dictionary WHERE CONTAINS(word, '+"wordSearched"+') or CONTAINS(keyword, '+"wordSearched"+')

or containstable sample

select id, f.[rank], [Name], [Description]   from eshop_product inner join  containstable(eshop_product,[Description], 'ISABOUT(bike weight(.9), pedals weight(.3) )  ' ) f on eshop_product.id = f.[KEY]

or use karsa full text search manager

I hope this help you

DateTime Problem

jonhbt15-Apr-09 21:24

15-Apr-09 21:24

Hi I have this code:

  Declare @v_update_sql varchar(max)<br />
<br />
	Declare @d_Date datetime <br />
	Declare @v_target_table_name varchar(max)<br />
		Set  @v_target_table_name = 'IM_DOC_TRANSFORM'<br />
	<br />
      Set @d_Date = '2009-03-02 12:46:00.000'<br />
     Set @v_update_sql = 'Select * From HRS_STAGING.dbo.'+ @v_target_table_name + 'Where    Last_Documented_Date_And_Time = Convert(datetime,'+@d_Date+')'<br />
    Exec(@v_update_sql)<br />
<br />

The error that is arising is that of cannot convert to datetime from string.the variable @d_Date is a valid date but still it cannot convert it. That statement works went not in a string variable but in this format it doesn't. Can someone help me please? Thanks

Hi jonhbt,

Try this, you seem to be missing some qoutation makers on the CONVERT in your dynamic SQL which are necessary for a STRING to be concatenated.

Set @v_update_sql = 'Select * From HRS_STAGING.dbo.'+ @v_target_table_name + 'Where Last_Documented_Date_And_Time = Convert(datetime,'''+@d_Date+''')'

I hope this helps,

Kevin

jonhbt15-Apr-09 22:05

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your help but the same happened. This is the error that I am Having.

Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string.

Kevin Horgan15-Apr-09 22:19

15-Apr-09 22:19

OK maybe this will help instead...

Set @v_update_sql = 'Select * From HRS_STAGING.dbo.'+ @v_target_table_name + 'Where Last_Documented_Date_And_Time = CAST('''||@d_Date||''' AS DATETIME)'

If it does not work, do a "SELECT @v_update_sql" immediately after the "SET @v_update_sql..." statement and see what the dynamic SQL looks like with the date string included. You might see an obvious syntax error then perhaps.
Cheers,

Kevin
