Hi there,
Below is an Oracle statement 'EXCEPTIONS INTO' I'd like to replicate in SQL Server. Is there an equivalent type of statement in SQL Server?
ALTER TABLE tablename ADD (
PRIMARY KEY(a,b)
EXCEPTIONS INTO exceptionTable);
TIA

There isn't, AFAIK. If you want to insert, you wrap it in a transaction and insert. Rollback if there's any conversion-error. Fix the error, insert again. No exception-table

hi,
I get an error :
The multi-part identifier "e.ent_name" could not be bound.
when trying to access a field from a temp table in a sub-query.
declare @entities table(ent_id int, ent_name varchar(50), startDT datetime)
insert into @entities
select ent.ent_id, ent_name, prod_job.act_start_time_local
from job as prod_job
inner join ent as ent on prod_job.run_ent_id = ent.parent_ent_id
where prod_job.wo_id = 'B.100077779'
select * from @entities
select * from @entities as e
inner join
(
select top(1) act_finish_time_local, oper_id from job as cleaningJob
where cleaningJob.oper_id like '%'+ e.ent_name +'%'
order by act_finish_time_local desc
)
as j on j.act_finish_time_local < e.startDT
how can i fix this?
Thanks

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

Try using CROSS APPLY instead:

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

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.

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.
Thanks,

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,
Abdul Aleem

Is there a reason why you are creating a user defined TYPE for each table? Why not create a table variable
Declare @Tbl TABLE(ID int)

Because I am trying to insert into the Table variable using dynamic sql, its not doing, can you please help me how can I insert into the Table variable within dynamic sql without using the User Defined Type? Thanks in advance buddy.

indian143 wrote: @Results Results READONLY
There's a slight clue in that line to suggest that you can't write to the table valued parameter. 
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,
Abdul Aleem
