insert the value to the temp table

  •  

    I tried to insert the value from the select query with a few optional parameter to temp table but I do not know how to accompish this.

     SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF

    GO

    SET ANSI_NULLS OFF

    GO

     

     

    /*.  according the due date end user select and ALTER  temp table

    find the nomatch table in the occh and return the table

    */

    ALTER     PROCEDURE dbo.test 

    @quiz VARCHAR( 25 ),

    @fromdate  datetime     = NULL,                  

    @todate    datetime     = NULL,

    @debug     bit          = 0

    as

    DECLARE @sql        nvarchar(4000),                           

            @paramlist  nvarchar(4000)                                

    begin                                                                  

     CREATE TABLE #tmpTrained(

    EmpID char(30))

    set @sql='select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1'

    set @sql= @sql+  ' AND L.quizname = '+ @quiz       

    IF @fromdate IS NOT NULL                                         

     set @sql = @sql + ' AND L.CTDate >='+@fromdate          

                                                                      

    IF @todate IS NOT NULL                                            

      set @sql = @sql + ' AND L.CTDate <='+ @todate           

                                                                      

    IF @Debug = 1

                BEGIN

                            PRINT @sql PRINT ''

                END

    set @sql='Insert into #tempTrained EmpID value '+ @sql

     

    exec  @sql

    end

     

     

    GO

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF

    GO

    SET ANSI_NULLS ON

    GO

    GO

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF

    GO

    SET ANSI_NULLS ON

    GO

     

     

     

    GO

    I gave me error

    select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1 AND L.quizname = Driver

     

    Server: Msg 2812, Level 16, State 62, Line 46

    Could not find stored procedure 'Insert into #tempTrained EmpID value select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1 AND L.quizname = Driver'.

    Stored Procedure: InternalEdu.dbo.test

     Return Code = 0

     

    I looked at this link for sample, it made me more confused. Thx.

  • I see a couple of things just by looking at it, but the most important thing here is that you do not need dynamic SQL to populate your temp table.  Use a static SQL statement instead such as :

    INSERT INTO #tmpTable

    SELECT Col1,

        Col2,

        Etc

    FROM TableName

    Another thing that I see is that your variables are out of whack.  I assume this is just an example so I won't point out everything that is wrong.  The main point, though, is that you do not need to use Dynamic SQL for this example.  In addition, depending on your use of the temp table, you probably don't need that either.  It would be more helpful, and beneficial to you, to post your real stored procedure instead of a mock up example.

  • Use Dynamic Or Static

    Please make sure you use syntax

    EXEC (@SQL) instead if EXEC @sql

  • but right now it is error.

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF

    GO

    SET ANSI_NULLS OFF

    GO

    /*.  according the due date end user select and ALTER  temp table

    find the nomatch table in the occh and return the table

    */

    ALTER                        PROCEDURE dbo.test 

    @quiz VARCHAR( 25 ),

    @fromdate  datetime     = NULL,                  

    @todate    datetime     = NULL,

    @debug     bit          = 0

    as

    DECLARE @sql        nvarchar(4000),                           

            @paramlist  nvarchar(4000)

    set @sql= @sql+  ' AND quizname = '+ @quiz     

     

    IF @fromdate IS NOT NULL                                         

     set @sql = @sql + ' AND CTDate >='+@fromdate          

                                                                      

    IF @todate IS NOT NULL                                            

      set @sql = @sql + ' AND CTDate <='+ @todate           

    select @sql='+ @sql +'

    --date conversion error here.

    set @sql='Insert into #tmpTrained '+ @sql

                                                                

    IF @Debug = 1

                BEGIN

                            PRINT @sql PRINT ''

                END

     

     

    exec  (@sql)

    end

     

    GO

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF

    GO

    SET ANSI_NULLS ON

    GO

     

  • Again, this does not need to be dynamic sql.  You say that you are getting an error, what is the error?

  • convert the data to string.

    date time conversion error.

    convert(datetime,CTDate)

    this line

    IF @fromdate IS NOT NULL                                         

     set @sql = @sql + ' AND convert(datetime, CTDate) >='+@fromdate          

                                                                     

    IF @todate IS NOT NULL                                            

      set @sql = @sql + ' AND convert(datetime,CTDate) =<'+ @todate           

    select @sql='+ @sql +'

  • try this

    SET @sql = @sql + 'AND CTDate <= CAST('''+@todate+''' AS DATETIME))'

  • Since you are concatenating your variables @fromdate and @todate to a string, you need to convert them to a string as well. 

    And for the third time, you do not need dynamic sql to accomplish what you are doing.  If you are not aware of the downside to dynamic sql, read this (for starters): http://www.sommarskog.se/dynamic_sql.html

    If you can a description of exactly what you are trying to accomplish with your stored procedure, we will be better able to assist you in creating a working SET based solution for you using static SQL.  Yea, yea, I know that you are trying to populate a temp table, but why?  What is the purpose of the data that you are putting into the temp table?

  • I read the link you mentioned about, too.

    It is hard to implement. Here what I want to accomplish ?

    http://www.sqlservercentral.com/forums/shwmessage.aspx?forumid=23&messageid=315364

     

    Thanks.

     

  • By the way, Sriram, your suggestion will not work either.  Did you try it?  It gives syntax errors.  If you truely want to go the Dynamic route (again, not suggested), here's the correct syntax:

    set @sql = @sql + 'AND CTDate <= ' + CAST(@todate AS varchar)

    I will look at your other post and get back to you.

  • Looks like you also need to put @quiz in quotes

    set @sql= @sql+ ' AND quizname = '''+ @quiz + ''''

  • Yep, typo... extra braces

    SET @sql = @sql + 'AND CTDate <= CAST('''+@todate+''' AS DATETIME)'

     

  • Jeff Moden asks a relevent question in his post.  If you answer his questions, you'll get the solution you're after without having to continue this post.  I will look for a response in your other post.

  • Thx. Today I need to take my son to visit school. I will not have time to test. I will test and get back tomorrow. Thx for big help.

  • I tried this

    SET @sql = @sql + 'AND CTDate <= CAST('''+@todate+''' AS DATETIME))' .

    It will give me error as

    Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Procedure test, Line 34

    Syntax error converting datetime from character string..

     

    I think because @todate @formdate can't not use + .

    select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1 AND quizname = 'Driver Safety' AND CTDate >= Jan  5 2006 12:00AM AND CTDate =< Aug  5 2007 12:00AM

    set @sql = @sql + 'AND CTDate <= ' + CAST(@todate AS varchar)

    if I entered the date 01/05/06 and 08/05/07.

    it cast the date as Jan 5 2006 12:00 am ,etc

    select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1 AND quizname = 'Driver Safety' AND CTDate >= Jan  5 2006 12:00AM AND CTDate =< Aug  5 2007 12:00AM.

     

    Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1

    Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '5'.

    if I use this

    convert(varchar, @fromdate,103)  or convert(varchar, @fromdate,101)

    select distinct EmplNO from tblCurrentWinTrainingLog where  1=1 AND quizname = 'Driver Safety' AND CTDate >=07/08/2006 AND CTDate =<05/10/2007

     it gave me error:

    Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1

    Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '<'.

    Stored Procedure: InternalEdu.dbo.test

     Return Code = 0

    Thx.
