Umbraco + Petapoco - Stored procedure to temp table - sql

Evening,
I'm trying to exec a stored procedure into a temporary table so I can join some bits from another table.
Obviously the ideal solution would be to add the join into the stored procedure however this is currently not an option.
Here's what I'm trying to run in my controller action:
db.Query<HomeLatestTradesViewModel>(Sql.Builder
.Append("INSERT INTO #tmp_trade")
.Append("EXEC get_trade_data_latest")
);
Which hits me with:
Invalid object name 'HomeLatestTradesViewModel'.
I believe this is because I need a ; before the EXEC however that just throws an error telling me it shouldn't be there!
Any help getting this to work is appreciated.

If you want to execute (not retrieve data), you should use
db.Execute(Sql.Builder
.Append(";INSERT INTO #tmp_trade")
.Append("EXEC get_trade_data_latest")
);
(but I guess this wont work, depends on how have you create the temp table, and if you are in a transaction)
If you want to fiddle with temp data, you are better getting the data into a list, and then playing with it
var templist = db.Query<HomeLatestTradesViewModel>(Sql.Builder
.Append("EXEC get_trade_data_latest")
);

Unable to Generate Result_set from Stored procedure in c#

Temp Table return data from Stored procedure doesnot create Modal class in Entity c# and it returns int.
Select Test 1,test2,test3,test4 from #temp1
sql side working and get the as expected after adding this procedure to my entity frame work result set is not generating instead of class it is generating int class
Please suggest is anything wrong done from side.
And also suggest whether temp table returns Result columns in entity.
Add SET FMTONLY OFF in SP that will work

Manipulating data from a stored procedure by saving data into a table

Problem: I have a stored procedure in SQL Server 2012 and I want to put constraints to the output so I only get relevant information.
I am using Execute. The way I see it I have two options:
save the result of the execution into a table, so I can use it for different purposes
put constraints to the variables in Execute so I only get the results I want
The first method is discussed here:
Insert results of a stored procedure into a temporary table .
My code is (due to company information I can't share the whole thing):
create table #mtable ( .... )
Insert into #mtable
Execute [myProcedure]
The error:
An INSERT EXEC statement cannot be nested.
I assume the error is because of the code in the stored procedure. How can I fix that problem without looking into the code for the stored procedure. Is there another way where I can save the content in a table?
My problem can also be solved by proposal #2. Is it possible for me to manipulate the output from the stored procedure with something like:
Execute [myProcedure] where variable1 > 100

How to call a stored procedure within a SELECT query?

I have a store procedure that takes in a uniqueidentifier and returns a table. What I am trying to do is to use these results like a regular table, but I realize SQL is still limited and doesn't allow it (yet!)
Example:
SELECT *
FROM MyTable MT
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM MyStoredProc(MT.ID) MSP
WHERE MT.SomeData = MSP.SomeData)
Is there an alternative solution to this problem? And please don't suggest using a function or a view as they are not exchangeable with a stored procedure. I'm actually quite surprised that the developers haven't implemented this yet considering the age of SQL.
Any help would be really appreciated!
That syntax won't work. You'd have to dump the results of the stored proc into a temp table and the reference the temp table.
Because Of the parameter, I'd suggest either making a new version of the proc that can execute for all IDs at once or drop the proc code into a table valued function (which can be executed using the syntax you're trying to use).

Is there a way to drop a User Defined Table type that is already bound to a stored procedure?

I have an user defined table type (UDTT) that is already bound with a stored procedure which uses it as a input parameter. I have made a mistake in UDTT structure but I cannot alter UDTT so when I tried to delete it, SSMS complaints that its bound to store procedure so it cannot be deleted. Is there away to delete my UDTT?
thanks
It is required on the drop, and what I normally do is set myself a template script that follows this execution:
-- Table builds or the type
if object_id(N'dbo.<tablename>') is null
begin <create table chunk> end
-- Proc Drops
-- UDTT Drops
-- UDTT Adds
-- Proc Adds
Then if you ever need to Alter a proc, you just seek it on that script and execute the script again. Since there is no saved data in a procedure, this solves type overlooks as well as recompile options needing processed. I found it to make development as well as testing much more conducive.
There is an easy work around here. I use SSMS, and select
SCRIPT AS > CREATE TO > NEW QUERY EDITOR WINDOW.
This gives a script to create. I then rename the existing data type rather than deleting it. Make whatever changes are needed to the recreate script, and execute.
You can then drop the renamed data type.
Its a bit of a work around, and an alter command would be better, but this does the job.

Access to Result sets from within Stored procedures Transact-SQL SQL Server

I'm using SQL Server 2005, and I would like to know how to access different result sets from within transact-sql. The following stored procedure returns two result sets, how do I access them from, for example, another stored procedure?
CREATE PROCEDURE getOrder (#orderId as numeric) AS
BEGIN
select order_address, order_number from order_table where order_id = #orderId
select item, number_of_items, cost from order_line where order_id = #orderId
END
I need to be able to iterate through both result sets individually.
EDIT: Just to clarify the question, I want to test the stored procedures. I have a set of stored procedures which are used from a VB.NET client, which return multiple result sets. These are not going to be changed to a table valued function, I can't in fact change the procedures at all. Changing the procedure is not an option.
The result sets returned by the procedures are not the same data types or number of columns.
The short answer is: you can't do it.
From T-SQL there is no way to access multiple results of a nested stored procedure call, without changing the stored procedure as others have suggested.
To be complete, if the procedure were returning a single result, you could insert it into a temp table or table variable with the following syntax:
INSERT INTO #Table (...columns...)
EXEC MySproc ...parameters...
You can use the same syntax for a procedure that returns multiple results, but it will only process the first result, the rest will be discarded.
I was easily able to do this by creating a SQL2005 CLR stored procedure which contained an internal dataset.
You see, a new SqlDataAdapter will .Fill a multiple-result-set sproc into a multiple-table dataset by default. The data in these tables can in turn be inserted into #Temp tables in the calling sproc you wish to write. dataset.ReadXmlSchema will show you the schema of each result set.
Step 1: Begin writing the sproc which will read the data from the multi-result-set sproc
a. Create a separate table for each result set according to the schema.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_SF_Read] AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
CREATE TABLE #Table01 (Document_ID VARCHAR(100)
, Document_status_definition_uid INT
, Document_status_Code VARCHAR(100)
, Attachment_count INT
, PRIMARY KEY (Document_ID));
b. At this point you may need to declare a cursor to repetitively call the CLR sproc you will create here:
Step 2: Make the CLR Sproc
Partial Public Class StoredProcedures
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure()> _
Public Shared Sub usp_SF_ReadSFIntoTables()
End Sub
End Class
a. Connect using New SqlConnection("context connection=true").
b. Set up a command object (cmd) to contain the multiple-result-set sproc.
c. Get all the data using the following:
Dim dataset As DataSet = New DataSet
With New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
.Fill(dataset) ' get all the data.
End With
'you can use dataset.ReadXmlSchema at this point...
d. Iterate over each table and insert every row into the appropriate temp table (which you created in step one above).
Final note:
In my experience, you may wish to enforce some relationships between your tables so you know which batch each record came from.
That's all there was to it!

There is a kludge that you can do as well. Add an optional parameter N int to your sproc. Default the value of N to -1. If the value of N is -1, then do every one of your selects. Otherwise, do the Nth select and only the Nth select.
For example,
if (N = -1 or N = 0)
select ...
if (N = -1 or N = 1)
select ...
The callers of your sproc who do not specify N will get a result set with more than one tables. If you need to extract one or more of these tables from another sproc, simply call your sproc specifying a value for N. You'll have to call the sproc one time for each table you wish to extract. Inefficient if you need more than one table from the result set, but it does work in pure TSQL.
Note that there's an extra, undocumented limitation to the INSERT INTO ... EXEC statement: it cannot be nested. That is, the stored proc that the EXEC calls (or any that it calls in turn) cannot itself do an INSERT INTO ... EXEC. It appears that there's a single scratchpad per process that accumulates the result, and if they're nested you'll get an error when the caller opens this up, and then the callee tries to open it again.
Matthieu, you'd need to maintain separate temp tables for each "type" of result. Also, if you're executing the same one multiple times, you might need to add an extra column to that result to indicate which call it resulted from.
Sadly it is impossible to do this. The problem is, of course, that there is no SQL Syntax to allow it. It happens 'beneath the hood' of course, but you can't get at these other results in TSQL, only from the application via ODBC or whatever.
There is a way round it, as with most things. The trick is to use ole automation in TSQL to create an ADODB object which opens each resultset in turn and write the results to the tables you nominate (or do whatever you want with the resultsets). you can also do it in DMO if you enjoy pain.
There are two ways to do this easily. Either stick the results in a temp table and then reference the temp table from your sproc. The other alternative is to put the results into an XML variable that is used as an OUTPUT variable.
There are, however, pros and cons to both of these options. With a temporary table, you'll need to add code to the script that creates the calling procedure to create the temporary table before modifying the procedure. Also, you should clean up the temp table at the end of the procedure.
With the XML, it can be memory intensive and slow.
You could select them into temp tables or write table valued functions to return result sets. Are asking how to iterate through the result sets?
