Reverse your operation

Populate the @Entities table as you are doing

change the select query
Select from Job
inner join on @Entities on - apply the filter here

You could use the BCP command with the -t option. See bcp Utility
And there is a lot of other ways. Just google for something like MSSQL import into .csv

from openrowset('MSDASQL', 'Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};
DefaultDir=D:\Users\Abdul;Extensions=csv;',
'select * from \Provider.csv') Test;

select *

Its giving me the following error:

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 11

Presumably you are using a dedicated IDE, SQL Server Management Studio SSMS, or one dedicated to your database.

I would recommend SQL Server Central. Microsoft SQL Server tutorials, training & forum.[^] as an excellent resource dedicated to SQL Server, concentrate on TSQL rather than the DBA stuff. Also try researching books on writing SQL.

2-Apr-18 14:18

hi all,

I have few SSIS Packages that have ConnectionStrings configured within Package Config file, now I want to set multiple variables values using Package configuration file, but the package configuration file is taking only one variable value, do I need to create different Package Configuration file for each variable that I want to set or is there any way I can set all the variable values using Package Configuration file.

And one more thing is I am going to deploy the SSIS Packages on the Server, where I need to put the Package Configuration Files at different locations, how can I change the Package Configuration Files Path? I am using SSDT 2012 and VS 2012, is it a problem?

Please I need this help, any help would be grateful, thanks in advance.

Trying to insert values into Table Variable in Dynamic Sql

2-Apr-18 13:17

Hi all,

I am trying to insert values into Table variable within Dynamic Sql, I am able to select values from Table variable but not able to insert values in to the Table variable.
Here is how I am selecting values from Table variable

CREATE TYPE IntegerTableType AS TABLE (ID INT);
go

DECLARE @TempVehicles IntegerTableType; 

INSERT  @TempVehicles
values (1);

DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(MAX);
SET @SQL ='SELECT * 
           FROM @TempVehicles;';

EXECUTE SP_EXECUTESQL @SQL,N'@TempVehicles IntegerTableType READONLY',
@TempVehicles;

IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.types WHERE is_table_type = 1 AND name ='IntegerTableType') 
    DROP TYPE [dbo].IntegerTableType;
GO

But when I am trying to insert values as below, I am not able to insert.

IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.types WHERE is_table_type = 1 AND name ='Results') 
    CREATE TYPE Results AS TABLE (TableName nvarchar(500), ColumnName nvarchar(500))
GO

Declare @Tables table (Id int identity(1,1), TableName nvarchar(500))
declare @Columns table (Id int identity(1,1), ColumnName nvarchar(500))

declare @Results AS Results

declare @IdMin1 int, @IdMax1 int, @IdMin2 int, @IdMax2 int, @col varchar(500), @cmd varchar(max), @TableName nvarchar(500)

insert into @Tables(TableName)
SELECT t.name 
  FROM sys.tables AS t
  INNER JOIN sys.schemas AS s
  ON t.[schema_id] = s.[schema_id]
  WHERE s.name = N'dbo'
  order by t.name

select @IdMin1=min(Id), @IdMax1=max(Id) from @Tables
while(@IdMin1<=@IdMax1)
begin
    set @TableName = (select top 1 TableName from @Tables where Id = @IdMin1)

<pre>
delete from @Columns
insert into @Columns(ColumnName)
SELECT c.name FROM sys.tables t JOIN sys.columns c ON t.Object_ID = c.Object_ID
WHERE t.Name = @TableName
order by c.name

--insert into @Results (TableName) values(@TableName)

select @IdMin2=min(Id), @IdMax2=max(Id) from @Columns

while(@IdMin2<=@IdMax2)
begin
set @col=''
select @col=ColumnName from @Columns where Id=@IdMin2

SELECT @cmd = 'IF EXISTS (SELECT top 1 * FROM ' + @TableName + ' WHERE [' + @col +
'] IS NULL) BEGIN insert into @Results (TableName, ColumnName) values( ''' + @TableName +''',''' + @col + ','') end';

begin try
--select @cmd
--EXEC(@cmd)
EXECUTE SP_EXECUTESQL @cmd, N'@Results Results READONLY', @Results;
end try
begin catch
SELECT @col=@col + ', Error Message: ' + ERROR_MESSAGE()

end catch

--insert into #Results (ColumnName) values(@col)

set @IdMin2+=1
end

set @IdMin1+=1
end

select * from @Results where TableName is not null order by TableName, ColumnName

IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.types WHERE is_table_type = 1 AND name ='Results')
DROP TYPE [dbo].Results;
GO

Can anybody please help me how can I finish this and let me know why is it not inserting into Table variable using Dynamic Sql, is there any way to perform that action. Any help would be much helpful, thanks in advance.

Thanks,

There's a slight clue in that line to suggest that you can't write to the table valued parameter. Smile | :)

Use Table-Valued Parameters (Database Engine) | Microsoft Docs[^]:
Table-valued parameters must be passed as input READONLY parameters to Transact-SQL routines. You cannot perform DML operations such as UPDATE, DELETE, or INSERT on a table-valued parameter in the body of a routine.

If you need to write to the table, use a temp table instead. It looks like you at least started trying to do that - one of the commented-out lines refers to #results instead of @results.

hi Rick, yes that's true I did achieve by using the Temp Table but I am always puzzled if I have any way to insert using table variable rather than temp table, because I don't like to drop, hence like to use Table variable which will be lost after the scope.

Any other way I can insert into table variable within dynamic sql?

Thanks,

If you pass a table valued parameter around, you can't modify the contents. You can only modify it in the procedure where it's declared.

A temp table is definitely the way to go, and there's no danger in dropping it. Each active connection gets its own set of temp tables, so there's no chance of the code executing on one connection affecting a temp table from another connection.

Hi Everyone, so i have a problem with my MySQL database, whenever i try to import the database i get an error that says

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near

I was running a site and using VestaCP i wanted to reinstall my server, so i simply exported the database from PHPmyAdmin and then reinstalled the whole server.

Then again i installed VestaCP and now when i am trying to import the Database i get the following error

ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 31734: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''C:24:"WPSEO_Sitemap_Cache_Data":152414:{a:2:{s:6:"status";s:2:"ok";s:3:"xml";s:' at line 2

It is a wordpress database, i really have no clue as to whats happening. If you guys can help me out i'd appreciate it.

I read some articles on Google, and i think its related to the Mysql or PHp versions. But i couldn't find answers or threads specifically for this issue. So please help me out ASAP because my website is down from days. Thanks

Not necessarily, it depends on what comes before it - if those are just two apostrophe's on their own in the middle of a longer statement they're fine, and the problem lies elsewhere. BUT you shouldn't really be posting strings in an SQL statement anyway - it's a security risk; look into paramatised queries instead And they are far less prone to syntax errors
