how to put exec(#string) into set #var in tsql? - tsql

so I was trying to create a index fragmentation stored procedure is TSQL but I am encoutering an error and can not wrap my head around this problem
the code i used is:
create or alter proc sp_maintain_index (#db nvarchar(50), #table nvarchar(50),
#index nvarchar(50)) as
begin
declare #ext_frg float
declare #int_frg float
declare #string1 nvarchar(500)
declare #string2 nvarchar(500)
set #string1 = N'select avg(avg_fragmentation_in_percent)
from sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats
(DB_ID(''' + #db + N'''), object_id(''' + #table + N'''),
Object_ID(''' + #index + N'''), null, ''Detailed'') group by object_id'
exec sp_executesql #string1, N'#ext_frg float out', #ext_frg OUTPUT
set #string2 = N'select avg(avg_page_space_used_in_percent)
from sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats
(DB_ID(''' + #db + N'''), object_id(''' + #table + N'''),
Object_ID(''' + #index + N'''), null, ''Detailed'') group by object_id'
exec sp_executesql #string2, N'#int_frg float out', #int_frg OUTPUT
declare #string nvarchar(500)
set #string = N'alter index ' + #index + N' on ' + #table
begin
if (#ext_frg >= 5 and #ext_frg <=30) or ((100 - #int_frg) < 70)
set #string = #string + N' reogranize'
else if (#ext_frg > 30) or ((100 - #int_frg) < 30)
set #string = #string + N' rebuild'
end
execute(#string)
end
go
exec dbo.sp_maintain_index N'virtual29', N'dbo.person', N'randomid'
Works now. Thanks for the flags. I messed up the dynamic sql, and used nvarchar instead for the variables.

Random Number Generator - Create a matrix of random numbers where the values in each row sum to X in T-SQL?

How to generate a matrix of random numbers where the values in each row add up to X in T-SQL?
The solution matrix should be dynamic:
User can specify number of columns to be returned in the result
User can specify number of rows to be returned in the result
Each row must sum to X (eg. 1)
create proc RandomNumberGenerator
(
#rows int
, #cols int
, #rowsumtotal float
)
as
....
First create a UDF...
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[_ex_fn_SplitToTable] (#str varchar(5000), #sep varchar(1) = null)
RETURNS #ReturnVal table (n int, s varchar(5000))
AS
/*
Alpha Test
-----------
select * from [dbo].[_ex_fn_SplitToTable_t2]('a b c d e',' ')
*/
BEGIN
if #sep = ' '
begin
set #sep = CHAR(167)
set #str = REPLACE(#str,' ',CHAR(167))
end
declare #str2 varchar(5000)
declare #sep2 varchar(1)
if LEN(ISNULL(#sep,'')) = 0
begin
declare #i int
set #i = 0
set #str2 = ''
declare #char varchar(1)
startloop:
set #i += 1
--print #i
set #char = substring(#str,#i,1)
set #str2 = #str2 + #char + ','
if LEN(#str) <= #i
goto exitloop
goto startloop
exitloop:
set #str2 = left(#str2,LEN(#str2) - 1)
set #sep2 = ','
--print #str2
end
else
begin
set #str2 = #str
set #sep2 = #sep
end
;WITH Pieces(n, start, stop) AS (
SELECT 1, 1, CHARINDEX(#sep2, #str2)
UNION ALL
SELECT n + 1, stop + 1, CHARINDEX(#sep2, #str2, stop + 1)
FROM Pieces
WHERE stop > 0
)
insert into #ReturnVal(n,s)
SELECT n,
SUBSTRING(#str2, start, CASE WHEN stop > 0 THEN stop-start ELSE 5000 END) AS s
FROM Pieces option (maxrecursion 32767)
RETURN
END
GO
Then, create this stored proc...
CREATE PROC [dbo].[RandomNumberGenerator]

#Pockets int = 6,
#SumTo float = 100,

SQL - insert into QUOTENAME(#DatabaseName)

DECLARE #DatabaseName varchar(30), #Article varchar(16), #PartnerID int
set #DatabaseName = 'DEMO'
set #Article = 'Article1'
set #PartnerID = 1
INSERT INTO QUOTENAME(#DatabaseName) + '.dbo.move(Article, Partner, Note)'
select #Article, #PartnerID, 'Note'
I have this and error is:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 7
Incorrect syntax near '+'.
I try:
DECLARE #SQL nvarchar(max)
DECLARE #DatabaseName varchar(30), #Article varchar(16), #PartnerID int
set #DatabaseName = 'Demo'
set #Article = 'Article1'
set #PartnerID = 1
set #SQL = N'INSERT INTO '+ QUOTENAME(#DatabaseName) + N'.dbo.move(Article, Partner, Note)'

exec #SQL
But I get this error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 9
Incorrect syntax near 'Note'.
If you are going to use dynamic SQL (which should be avoided if you have alternatives), it's still a good idea to use sp_executesql and parameters, and using REPLACE to construct statements rather than concatenation saves a lot of headaches debugging the proper escaping. In your example:
SET #SQL = REPLACE(
'INSERT INTO $database.dbo.move(Article, Partner, Note)
VALUES (#Article, #Partner, ''Note'')',
'$database', QUOTENAME(#DatabaseName)
);
PRINT #SQL; -- check what we've produced
EXECUTE sp_executesql
#stmt = #sql,
#params = N'#Article VARCHAR(16), #Partner INT',
#Article = #Article, #Partner = #PartnerID
;

How do i can resolve this promblem?

I have an table include 1 column ID and 12 columns month (Month01 to Month12). If i have an parameter #month=9, how can i compare to get column Month01 to Month09 without Month10, Month11, Month12. Please help me!
Simo's answer is more elegant, but below is an alternative "basic" way to do this:
DECLARE #month INT
SET #month = 9
IF #Month = 1
BEGIN
SELECT Id, Month01
FROM MonthlyData
END
IF #Month = 2
BEGIN
SELECT Id, Month01, Month02
FROM MonthlyData
END
-- Repeat for months 3-9
IF #Month = 9
BEGIN
SELECT Id, Month01, Month02, Month03, Month04,
Month05, Month06, Month07, Month08, Month09
FROM MonthlyData
END
-- Repeat for months 10-12
See my SQL Fiddle.
declare #str varchar(1000)
SELECT #str= coalesce(#str + ', ', '') + a.name
FROM (
Select name from sys.columns
where object_id = OBJECT_ID('table_months')
and isnumeric(right(name,2))= 1 and name like 'month%'
and cast(right(name,2) as int) < '03') a
-- Instead of '03' you use a variable and assign required moths number
declare #sql nvarchar(100)
set #sql = 'select ID, '+ #str+' from table_months'
exec sp_executesql #sql
you may try this out also :)
DECLARE #month int = 9
DECLARE #Sql nvarchar(100) =''
DECLARE #pos int = 1
WHILE(#pos <= #month)
BEGIN
SET #Sql = #Sql + (',month' + right('00'+ rtrim(#pos), 2))
SET #pos = #pos + 1
END
SET #Sql= 'SELECT ID ' +#Sql + ' FROM table'
EXEC sp_executesql #Sql
DECLARE #month int
DECLARE #tableName nvarchar(128)
SET #month = 9;
SET #tableName = 'months' -- YOUR TABLE's NAME
DECLARE #query nvarchar(2048)
SET #query =
'SELECT id, ' + STUFF((SELECT DISTINCT ', ' + name
FROM sys.columns WHERE name LIKE'Month%'
AND object_id = OBJECT_ID(#tableName)
AND CONVERT(INT, RIGHT(name, 2)) <= #month
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)'),1,1,'')
+ ' FROM ' + #tableName;
EXEC(#query)

How to create view for all tables in database?

I want to make views from all tables already exist in database that’s hard task to catch the tables one by one and make create view XXXX as select * from Table_name .I find something that it is possible with cursor and the code is :
DECLARE #TableName sysname
DECLARE #ColumnCount INT
DECLARE #ColumnID INT
DECLARE #SelectColumn NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE #sql NVARCHAR(max) = ''
DECLARE QUERYINFO CURSOR FOR
SELECT
t.name AS TableName,
ccount.ColumnCount,
c.column_id AS ColumnID,
CASE WHEN c.column_id <> ccount.ColumnCount
THEN c.name + ', '
ELSE c.name
END AS SelectColumn
FROM sys.tables t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.object_id=c.object_id
INNER JOIN (
SELECT object_id,COUNT(*) AS ColumnCount
FROM sys.columns
GROUP BY object_id
) ccount ON t.object_id = ccount.object_id
ORDER BY t.Name,c.column_id
OPEN QUERYINFO
FETCH NEXT FROM QUERYINFO INTO #TableName,#ColumnCount,#ColumnID,#SelectColumn
WHILE ##FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
IF #ColumnID = 1
BEGIN
SET #sql = 'CREATE VIEW v_' + #TableName + ' AS SELECT ' + #SelectColumn
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET #sql = #sql + #SelectColumn
END
IF #ColumnID = #ColumnCount
BEGIN
SET #sql = #sql + ' FROM ' + #TableName
EXEC sys.sp_executesql #sql
SET #sql = ''
END
FETCH NEXT FROM QUERYINFO INTO #TableName,#ColumnCount,#ColumnID,#SelectColumn
END
CLOSE QUERYINFO
DEALLOCATE QUERYINFO
but it has error and I don't know how solve it
This is what I would do with dynamic SQL; checking first to see if the view exists, then creating it with all of the columns (not by using SELECT * FROM...).
DECLARE #SQL nvarchar(MAX)
SET #SQL = N''
SELECT
#SQL = #SQL +
N'IF EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM sys.objects WHERE name = N''v_' + t.name + N''' AND type = N''V'') BEGIN DROP VIEW [v_' + t.name + '] END CREATE VIEW [v_' + t.name + N'] AS SELECT ' +
STUFF(
(SELECT N',' + c.name
FROM
sys.columns AS c
WHERE
c.OBJECT_ID = t.OBJECT_ID
ORDER BY
column_id
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE).value('.',N'nvarchar(max)')
,1,1,N'')
+ N' FROM [' + t.name + N'];'
FROM
sys.tables AS t
EXEC sp_executesql #SQL

Altering Multiple Tables at once

I'm trying to alter multiple SQL Server 2008 R2 tables at one time.
This is my code:
use DatabaseName
go
Declare #SchemaUsed varchar(20) = 'dbo'
create table #Tables
(
TableName varchar(100), Processed int
)
insert into #Tables
select top 1 table_name, 0
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
where TABLE_SCHEMA = #SchemaUsed
and table_type = 'Base Table'
and (TABLE_NAME like 'PM%' )
ORDER BY TABLE_NAME
DECLARE #TableName varchar(max)
DECLARE #SQL varchar(max)
WHILE EXISTS (select top 1 'x' from #Tables where Processed = 0)
BEGIN
SET #TableName = (select top 1 TableName from #Tables where Processed = 0)
Set #SQL = 'ALTER TABLE ' + #SchemaUsed + '.' + #TableName + ' ADD [identityID] bigint IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL '
-- Set #SQL = '''' + #SQL + ''''
Print #SQL
EXEC #SQL;
update #Tables
set Processed = 1
where TableName = #TableName
END
drop table #Tables
I can't get this to work to save my life and get the following error:
Lookup Error - SQL Server Database Error: The name 'ALTER TABLE
dbo.PM1GTVLV ADD [identityID] bigint IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL ' is not
a valid identifier.
I've also tried multiple string variations and using sp_executesql as well.
Can someone point out where I've gone wrong?
Try
DECLARE #SQL NVARCHAR(MAX);
EXEC sp_executesql #SQL;
Instead of EXEC #sql.
As an aside, this is a much more usable version of the same code IMHO:
DECLARE #SchemaUsed VARCHAR(20) = 'dbo';
DECLARE #sql NVARCHAR(MAX) = N'';
SELECT #sql += CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) + N'ALTER TABLE '
+ QUOTENAME(#SchemaUsed) + '.'
+ QUOTENAME(name) + ' ADD [identityID]
BIGINT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL;'
FROM sys.tables
WHERE SCHEMA_NAME([schema_id]) = #SchemaUsed
AND name LIKE 'PM%';
PRINT #sql;
--EXEC sp_executesql #sql;
Or even better:
DECLARE #SchemaUsed VARCHAR(20) = 'dbo';
DECLARE #sql NVARCHAR(MAX) = N'';
SELECT #sql += CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) + N'ALTER TABLE '
+ QUOTENAME(#SchemaUsed) + '.'
+ QUOTENAME(name) + ' ADD [identityID]
BIGINT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL;'
FROM sys.tables AS t
WHERE SCHEMA_NAME([schema_id]) = #SchemaUsed
AND name LIKE 'PM%'
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns AS c
WHERE [object_id] = t.[object_id]
AND c.is_identity = 1);
PRINT #sql;
--EXEC sp_executesql #sql;
To execute a character string, EXEC requires parenthesis around the string (or character variable) as shown in the BOL syntax:
EXEC (#SQL);
