I have a SQL query in Excel that will work just fine if I hard code the dates into the query. As soon as I try to change them to ?'s it gives the error. I've used parameterized queries like this in loads of reports, so I'm not sure why this one is suddenly not working.
The full error is [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The multi-part identifier "cancel.arrival_date" could not be bound. which pops up twice.
Here is my query with the ? in it that gives the error:
SELECT cancel.reservation_number, (client.last_name + ', ' + client.first_name) AS 'guest_name',
cancel.cancel_date_time, cancel.arrival_date,
DATEDIFF(DAY, cancel.cancel_date_time, cancel.arrival_date) AS 'Days Out', cancel.cancel_reason,
CASE
WHEN EXISTS (SELECT *
FROM gbfol_head head
LEFT JOIN gbfol_det det ON head.folio_number = det.folio_number
WHERE cancel.reservation_number = head.source_id
AND head.folio_type <> 'b' AND det.posting_code = 'admn') THEN
'ADMN Charged'
ELSE
'No ADMN Fee'
END AS 'ADMN',
cancel.amount, cancel.cancel_clerk_code, cancel.sba_text
FROM canceled cancel
LEFT JOIN reservation res ON cancel.reservation_number = res.reservation_number
LEFT JOIN clients client ON res.home_client_code = client.client_code
WHERE DATEDIFF(DAY, cancel.cancel_date_time, cancel.arrival_date) < 21
AND (cancel.arrival_date BETWEEN ? AND ?)
If I change the last line to AND (cancel.arrival_date BETWEEN '2019-12-01' AND '2019-12-10') it works fine.
I have also tried using AND (cancel.arrival_date >= ? AND cancel.arrival_date <= ?) which didn't work either, same error.

Trying to set up this sql as a data connection in excel 2007:
select sv.accountid, sv.companyName, sv.siteid, sv.siteName + '('+sv.siteCity + '-' + sv.siteState + ')' as siteNameWithLocation,
datefromparts(datepart(yyyy,r.logdate),datepart(mm,r.logdate),1) as monthDate,
sum('controllerEstKGal') / 1000 as siteEstimatedTotalKgals
from RuntimeDay r WITH (READUNCOMMITTED)
join controller c on c.id = r.controllerid
join siteView sv on sv.siteid = c.siteid
join (
SELECT r.controllerid, r.logdate, SUM((ISNULL(r.RuntimeSec, 0)/60.0) * ISNULL(s.EsrfGpm, 0)) as 'controllerEstKGal'
FROM RuntimeDay r WITH (READUNCOMMITTED)
JOIN CdcView c WITH (READUNCOMMITTED) ON r.ControllerId = c.ControllerId
JOIN StationFlowConfig s WITH (READUNCOMMITTED)
ON r.ControllerId = s.ControllerId AND r.StationNumber = s.StationId
WHERE c.siteid in (8547, 8299, 8556, 8541, 8292, 8600, 8551, 5487, 8555, 8216, 8342, 8557, 8287, 8542, 8221, 5509, 8218, 8543, 8336, 8343)
AND logDate between '2016-01-01' and '2016-12-31'
AND r.RuntimeSec > 0
AND s.EsrfGpm > 0
group by r.controllerid, r.logdate
) eu on eu.controllerid = r.controllerid and eu.logDate = r.logdate
where sv.siteid in (8547, 8299, 8556, 8541, 8292, 8600, 8551, 5487, 8555, 8216, 8342, 8557, 8287, 8542, 8221, 5509, 8218, 8543, 8336, 8343) and r.logDate between '2016-01-01' and '2016-12-31'
group by sv.accountid, sv.companyName, sv.siteid, sv.siteName + '('+sv.siteCity + '-' + sv.siteState + ')',
datefromparts(datepart(yyyy,r.logdate),datepart(mm,r.logdate),1)
And I get the following error message from Microsoft Query:
No Column name was specified for column 3 of 'eu'.
Statement(s) could not be prepared.
I believe that "column 3" is referring to this specific part:
SUM((ISNULL(r.RuntimeSec, 0)/60.0) * ISNULL(s.EsrfGpm, 0)) as 'controllerEstKGal'
I've found cases where this question was asked before, but the replies say to put the name of column 3 in quotes. However (as you can see) I've done that and I'm still getting this error.
Help me StackExchange, you're my only hope! (and thank you!)
EDIT: To clarify, I get the error both with and without single/double quotes surrounding controllerEstKgal. Backticks result in the following error message:
Incorrect syntax near '`'.
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
Statement(s) could not be prepared.
I am using XL Report Builder version 2.1.4 and trying to execute the following script but, keep getting the error "Microsoft ODBC Excel Driver Syntax Error (missing operator) in query expression".
select Bidders.*
From Bidders
where
If :Param1 = 1 Then
Due > 0 and
Left(Event,2) <> 12
Else
Due = 0 and
Left(Event,2) <> 12
End If
order by
Name
Param1 is a user-entry parameter that can be either "0" or "1".
Does anyone have any advice as to what operator I am missing?
The if in the query looks suspicious. Try writing the query as:
select Bidders.*
From Bidders
where (:Param1 = 1 and Due > 0 and Left(Event,2) <> 12) or
(:Param1 <> 1 and Due = 0 and Left(Event,2) <> 12)
order by Name;
You can simplify this as:
select Bidders.*
From Bidders
where Event not like '12%' and
((:Param1 = 1 and Due > 0) or
(:Param1 <> 1 and Due = 0)
)
order by Name;
I have the following SQL:
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns WHERE name='RequireNamespaceClaim' AND object_id = OBJECT_ID('DefaultBaseUrl'))
BEGIN
UPDATE DefaultBaseUrl SET AuthenticationTypeId = at.AuthenticationTypeId
FROM DefaultBaseUrl dbu
JOIN (
SELECT AuthenticationTypeId, CASE CodeName WHEN 'NATIVE' THEN 0 ELSE 1 END RequireNamespaceClaim
FROM AuthenticationType
) at ON dbu.RequireNamespaceClaim = at.RequireNamespaceClaim
END
Running it prints:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 8
Invalid column name 'RequireNamespaceClaim'.
However, running
SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns WHERE name='RequireNamespaceClaim' AND object_id = OBJECT_ID('DefaultBaseUrl')
reveals that no such column indeed exists.
So, the IF EXISTS statement is FALSE, hence the body of the if-statement does not run. However, the error is still printed.
What is going on?
How can I fix it?
SQL Server compiles the entire query and checks it for validity.
At that time the column doesn't exist.
There is a command to run an SQL from a string which is not compiled.
Have a look at (I think that's the right one):
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175170(v=sql.105).aspx
Can anyone explain to me this behaviour in SQL Server.
I've got an UPDATE statement as part of a stored proc, and it get a 'An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near 'THEN' error in some cases as per below. First the statement.
UPDATE MyDB.dbo.OrganisationUnits
SET OrganisationUnit = Inserted.OrganisationUnit,
ParentOrganisationUnit =
(CASE WHEN ((SELECT Count(1)
FROM [172.24.112.10].Consurgo.dbo.OrganisationUnits CO1
WHERE CO1.OrganisationUnit = Inserted.ParentOrganisationUnit) = 1)
THEN Inserted.ParentOrganisationUnit
ELSE CO.ParentOrganisationUnit
END),
OrganisationLevel = Inserted.OrganisationLevel
FROM Inserted, Deleted, MyDB.dbo.OrganisationUnits CO
WHERE CO.OrganisationUnit = Deleted.OrganisationUnit
The error comes in in the CASE statement at the ' = 1' part.
As the statement is now, it works. If I change the =1 part to > 0 then it fails with error message above.
With <> 0 it also fails. But with <> 1 it works.
It also works with =2 and <>2.
EDIT 4/18:
I want to thank everyone who has answered so far. As a test I have set up a new job which has just one step in it,
EXECUTE p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList
This procedure itself runs just fine and reports no errors or warnings but will not run when executed as part of a job. The error I receive when running the job is:

[SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7300). The step failed.
I have tried changing the run as user selection and every other selection I try results in an error of:

ORIGINAL:
I have the following stored procedure that is used to fill a table with values.
PROCEDURE [dbo].[p_OutboundCallList_Create]
AS
BEGIN
TRUNCATE TABLE T_OutboundCallList
EXECUTE p_LeadVendor_GetCallsForCallList
EXECUTE p_CallCampaign_GetCallsForCallList
EXECUTE p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList
EXECUTE p_NoSaleFollowUp_GetCallsForCallList
END
Running this works fine and the table is filled. After creating a job and adding the following step:
EXEC p_OutboundCallList_Create
The job fails with the following error message:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Warning: Null value is eliminated
by an aggregate or other SET operation. [SQLSTATE 01003] (Message 8153)
Warning: Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation.
[SQLSTATE 01003] (Message 8153) OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' reported an error.

[OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
[SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7300). The step failed.
If I comment out the line
EXECUTE p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList
..the job runs fine. This stored procedure (p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList) does rely on a linked server and runs fine by itself and also runs fine when I run p_OutboundCallList_Create. It only fails when I run it as part of a job. I have tried running as a different user (sa, benderle, etc.) and always get the same result (failed).
"Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation" is a SQL Server warning, which means you won't see it in the output if you run your query and this warning is raised (switch to the "Messages" tab in SQL Server Management Studio to see this).
Although it's a warning, presumably any warnings in a SQL job cause the job to error out. Fix the p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList procedure so it doesn't raise that warning and you job will work as expected.
I woulf be interested in seeing the code in p_CallLog_GetAbandonedCallsForCallList, as it may explain more as to why this is happening for the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.
The message occurs when you perform an aggregation (e.g. sum(), max(), count() on a data set that has a null in it).
To fix this, you may need to put an ISNULL() around the field in question, or use an INNER JOIN instead of a LEFT or RIGHT JOIN.
To disable warning that throw error in Sql Server Agent tasks.
The tasks that are launched from the SQL SERVER AGENT (scheduled), give an error, if there is a warning of the style:
"Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation"
This message can be disabled by SET ANSI_WARNING OFF
But in some cases, there are sql statements that require this value to be on to avoid errors like:
Heterogeneous queries require the ANSI_NULLS and ANSI_WARNINGS options to be set for the connection. This ensures consistent query semantics. Enable these options and then reissue your query
Therefore, there is no other solution than to prevent SQL SERVER AGENT from considering it an error.
This can be achieved by modifying the values in the REGISTRY (REGEDIT)
Modify the entries, depending on your version of SQL SERVER:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\SQLServerAgent
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.SQL2012\SQLServerAgent
Add as 'no error' the message id you want to disable: 7405
