Use dynamic SQL to complete your query, and you can send the amount of employee you want:

Here's an example:

DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(1000)

DECLARE @ab NVARCHAR(100)

set @ab...

A trigger is good for the update statement, but I propose you use a simple default value for the new value. Here's how:

USE tempdb

GO

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test]

If I understand what you mean correctly, you are saying it would be quicker to do something like this:

UPDATE vwGICSPFVendorUpdateAndKey

SET MfrCode...

Maybe the query itself would help, even though I cannot give the tables or some data for them.

Here is the query:

UPDATE vwGICSPFVendorUpdateAndKey

SET MfrCode = sub.MfrCode

...

Yes the query plan differs, but only a bit. I can post both here, but I don't think it would help. The only thing that differs is an "index spool",...

Here is a dynamic procedure that should work better, since you can reuse it with a different parameter

CREATE PROCEDURE SelectLastXMonths ( @nbMonths AS INT )

Hi,

When you use Len(String), it returns the length of the string before it finds only blanks. So a string with 2 blanks and 4 characters returns a length of 6,...

Simply append your query with the insert into query. Using the parameter itself, because you cannot execute an appened string unless it's in a single string. Here's an example:

It is actually a requirement to try importing the data as is, because we want to know if errors occured. That update will happen in 100 stores, and we need...

That would be interesting, since the BULK or OpenRowSet would use the same connection, so the same transaction, and access the "Uncommited rows".

Can you give me a link or a...

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately, the idea does not work, the query still freezes when I try adding a new transaction in the current one. The top transaction is blocking...

Hi,

I have an issue with using openrowSet:

When using on real data, i got several products that with double quotes in the description, and caused me problems.

Here is an example:
