This is my table where i want my PNRNo to be generated as 'PNRRES001' for the first entry, and consecutive entries with 'PNRRES002','PNRRES002' so on.
So while creating table only i called that column to function which will generate the PNR no, User just has to enter the CustomerNo from the front end, and data wit PNR & Customer No will updated to the PNRDetails table.
CREATE TABLE PNRDetails(PNRNo AS (DBO.FuncIncPNR()) ,customerNo INT
--FUNCTION TO GENERATE THE PNR NUMBER
ALTER FUNCTION dbo.FuncIncPNR()
RETURNS VARCHAR(20)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE #RR VARCHAR(20) SET #RR='PNRRESA001'
--here i have checked if no value is there then return the first value as 'PNRRESA001'
IF((SELECT COUNT(*)FROM PNRDetails)=0)
BEGIN
RETURN #RR
END
ELSE
-- if any value is there then take the last value and add 1 to it and update to the table
BEGIN
DECLARE #pnr VARCHAR(20),#S1 VARCHAR(20),#S2 INT
DECLARE PNRCursor CURSOR Static
FOR SELECT PNRNo FROM PNRDetails
OPEN PNRCursor
FETCH LAST FROM PNRNo INTO #pnr
SET #S1=SUBSTRING(#pnr,1,7)
SET #S2=RIGHT(#PNR,3)
SET #S2=#S2+1;
SET #pnr=#S1+#S2;
END
RETURN #pnr
END
--Here am inserting only customerNo as 5 and the PNR should be generated by my function
INSERT INTO PNRDetails VALUES(5)
--it shows 1 row updated :)
SELECT * FROM PNRDetails
-- but when i run select command it shows
--Maximum stored procedure, function, trigger, or view nesting level exceeded (limit 32). :(
U can run this.And pls do help if u find anything that could help me. any help will be appreciated...
Waiting for your kind response...
You could try to use a computed column and an identity column instead.
create table PNRDetails
(
ID int identity,
PNRNo as 'PNRRES'+right(1000+ID, 3),
customerNo int
)
I would suggest just using an IDENTITY instead as your id, let SQL Server handle the assignment of each id number with all it's built-in guards for concurrency, and leave the formatting up to the UI....or, create a computed column that defines the formatted version of the ID if you really do need it in the DB.
The risk you run with your intended approach is:
poor performance
concurrency issues - if loats of ids are being generate around the same time
If you are happy to change the table structure. Following will do the job.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PNRDetails](
[autoId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[prnNo] AS ('PNRRES'+right('000'+CONVERT([varchar](3),[dbo].[GetRowCount]([autoId]),(0)),(3))),
[customerNo] [int] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Table1] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[autoId] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
EDIT: to address identity issue for your requirement pls create following function and pass the [autoId] in as above (edited) in the computed column.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.GetRowCount
(
#autoId INT
)
RETURNS INT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE #RESULTS AS INT
SELECT #RESULTS = COUNT(autoId) FROM PNRDetails WHERE PNRDetails.autoId<#autoId
RETURN #RESULTS + 1
END
GO
--INSERT
INSERT INTO PNRDetails (customerNo) VALUES(5)
1) You can use an identity column in your database (INTEGER)
PROS: easy/No gaps in between generated ids
CONS: You have to select the inserted id & return via procedure/query
if you were to show it to end user
2) Define a database sequence
PROS: easy to implement/Can be stored/shown to user before the form is
even saved
CONS: Gaps in between if the certain id is once generated & not used
3). Select max(id) from column + 1
PROS: Useful where only single user inserts in a table
CONS: disastrous if you were in an environment where multiple users
were inserting in the same tablle (mismatched max ids)
4) Use a database trigger to autoincrement the column
PROS:automated
CONS: hard to debug (you have to make sure it don't breaks for some
reason otherwise insert fails)
Change the way your trigger works. Something like this
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fn_FuncIncPNR(#ID int)
RETURNS varchar(20)
BEGIN
Declare #Retval varchar(20),
#No varchar(4)
Select #No = convert(varchar(4), #ID)
while Len(#No) < 4
Select #No = '0' + #No
Select #Retval = 'PNRRESA' + #No
RETURN #Retval
END
You will notice there is a parameter field
Change your table create to this
CREATE TABLE PNRDetails(PNRNo AS (dbo.fn_ShowPNRNo(wID)), wID int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, customerNo INT)
That should solve your problem

I have set my column to int not null default 1... but whenever I save my record, it sets default value for that record to be 0.
I am not setting it anywhere. I don't know where I am making a mistake.
I have debugged my code , and when I am passing new entity object it is setting default value for not null to 0 .May be it is something with LINQ, But I don't know how to handle it.I don't want to explicitly assign value.
Thanks!
For sql-server, you can use SQL Server Profiler to catch all the scripts you run into the DB.
This may show you some details
Try running this query, replacing the 'myTable' and 'myColumn' values with your actual TABLE and COLUMN names, and see what's returned:
SELECT
OBJECT_NAME(C.object_id) AS [Table Name]
,C.Name AS [Column Name]
,DC.Name AS [Constraint Name]
,DC.Type_Desc AS [Constraint Type]
,DC.Definition AS [Default Value]
FROM sys.default_constraints DC
INNER JOIN sys.Columns C
ON DC.parent_column_id = C.column_id
AND DC.parent_object_id = C.object_id
WHERE OBJECT_NAME(DC.parent_object_id) = 'myTable'
AND COL_NAME(DC.parent_object_id,DC.parent_column_id) = 'myColumn'
;
Should return something like this:
[Table Name] [Column Name] [Constraint Name] [Constraint Type] [Default Value]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
myTable myColumn DF_myTable_myColumn DEFAULT_CONSTRAINT ('0')
If the [Default Value] returned is indeed (1), then it means that you have set the constraint properly and something else is at play here. It might be a trigger, or some other automated DML that you've forgotten/didn't know about, or something else entirely.
I am not the world's biggest fan of using a TRIGGER, but in a case like this, it could be handy. I find that one of the best uses for a TRIGGER is debugging little stuff like this - because it lets you see what values are being passed into a table without having to scroll through mountains of profiler data. You could try something like this (again, switching out the myTable and myColumn values with your actual table and column names):
CREATE TABLE Default_Check
(
Action_Time DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT GETDATE()
,Inserted_Value INT
);
CREATE TRIGGER Checking_Default ON myTable
AFTER INSERT, UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Default_Check (Inserted_Value)
SELECT I.myColumn
FROM Inserted I
;
END
;
This trigger would simply list the date/time of an update/insert done against your table, as well as the inserted value. After creating this, you could run a single INSERT statement, then check:
SELECT * FROM Default_Check;
If you see one row, only one action (insert/update) was done against the table. If you see two, something you don't expect is happening - you can check to see what. You will also see here when the 0 was inserted/updated.
When you're done, just make sure you DROP the trigger:
DROP TRIGGER Checking_Default;
You'll want to DROP the table, too, once it's become irrelevant:
DROP TABLE Default_Check;
If all of this still didn't help you, let me know.
In VB use
Property VariableName As Integer? = Nothing
And
In C# use
int? value = 0;
if (value == 0)
{
value = null;
}
Please check My Example:
create table emp ( ids int null, [DOJ] datetime NOT null)
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Emp] ADD CONSTRAINT DF_Emp_DOJ DEFAULT (GETDATE()) FOR [DOJ]
1--Not working for Default Values
insert into emp
select '1',''
2 ---working for Default Values
insert into emp(ids) Values(13)
select * From emp
I have an SQLite3 database that I would like to create. I want an INTEGER field (named "Length") to have a DEFAULT value that equals the length of the string in another field (named "Pattern").
CREATE TABLE knowledge (
Entry INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
Priority TINYINT UNSIGNED CHECK (0 <= Priority < 15),
Pattern TEXT NOT NULL,
Length INTEGER UNSIGNED DEFAULT 'LENGTH(Pattern);'
);
However, the current table set-up does not "dynamically" set the value of "Length" as desired.
How can I properly set the DEFAULT value of "Length" to be the string length of the "Pattern" field?
The Default value you want to assign is dynamic which sqlite does not support. One solution is what CL. said. I would define the default value as 0 and use not one but two triggers (one for insert and another for update).
CREATE TRIGGER default_length_on_insert AFTER INSERT ON knowledge WHEN NEW.Length IS 0
BEGIN
UPDATE knowledge SET Length=length(NEW.Pattern) WHERE ROWID = NEW.ROWID;
END;
and
CREATE TRIGGER default_length_on_update AFTER UPDATE ON knowledge
BEGIN
UPDATE knowledge SET Length=length(NEW.Pattern) WHERE ROWID = NEW.ROWID;
END;
A default value must be a constant.
You coud use a trigger instead:
CREATE TRIGGER knowledge_length_default
AFTER INSERT ON knowledge
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN NEW.Length IS NULL
BEGIN
UPDATE knowledge
SET Length = length(NEW.Pattern)
WHERE Entry = NEW.Entry;
END;
I am using asp.net2008 and MY SQL.
I want to auto-generate the value for the field username with the format as
"SISI001", "SISI002",
etc. in SQL whenever the new record is going to inserted.
How can i do it?
What can be the SQL query ?
Thanks.
Add a column with auto increment integer data type
Then get the maximum value of that column in the table using "Max()" function and assign the value to a integer variable (let the variable be 'x').
After that
string userid = "SISI";
x=x+1;
string count = new string('0',6-x.ToString().length);
userid=userid+count+x.ToString();
Use userid as your username
Hope It Helps. Good Luck.
PLAN A>
You need to keep a table (keys) that contains the last numeric ID generated for various entities. This case the entity is "user". So the table will contain two cols viz. entity varchar(100) and lastid int.
You can then have a function written that will receive the entity name and return the incremented ID. Use this ID concatenated with the string component "SISI" to be passed to MySQL for insertion to the database.
Following is the MySQL Table tblkeys:
CREATE TABLE `tblkeys` (
`entity` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
`lastid` int(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`entity`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
The MySQL Function:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE FUNCTION `getkey`( ps_entity VARCHAR(100)) RETURNS INT(11)
BEGIN
DECLARE ll_lastid INT;
UPDATE tblkeys SET lastid = lastid+1 WHERE tblkeys.entity = ps_entity;
SELECT tblkeys.lastid INTO ll_lastid FROM tblkeys WHERE tblkeys.entity = ps_entity;
RETURN ll_lastid;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
The sample function call:
SELECT getkey('user')
Sample Insert command:
insert into users(username, password) values ('SISI'+getkey('user'), '$password')
Plan B>
This way the ID will be a bit larger but will not require any extra table. Use the following SQL to get a new unique ID:
SELECT ROUND(NOW() + 0)
You can pass it as part of the insert command and concatenate it with the string component of "SISI".
I am not an asp.net developer but i can help you
You can do something like this...
create a sequence in your mysql database as-
CREATE SEQUENCE "Database_name"."SEQUENCE1" MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 9999999999999999999999999999 INCREMENT BY 001 START WITH 21 CACHE 20 NOORDER NOCYCLE ;
and then while inserting use this query-----
insert into testing (userName) values(concat('SISI', sequence1.nextval))
may it help you in your doubt...
Try this:
CREATE TABLE Users (
IDs int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1, 1),
USERNAME AS 'SISI' + RIGHT('000000000' + CAST(IDs as varchar(10)), 4), --//getting uniqueness of IDs field
Address varchar(150)
)
(not tested)
I have a stored procedure which uses the IN clause. In my ASP.NET application, I have a multiline textbox that supplies values to the stored procedure. I want to be able to order by the values as they were entered in the textbox. I found out how to do this easily in mySQL (using FIELD function), but not a SQL Server equivalent.
So my query looks like:
Select * from myTable where item in #item
So I would be passing in values from my application like '113113','112112','114114' (in an arbitrary order). I want to order the results by that list.
Would a CASE statement be feasible? I wouldn't know how many items are coming in the textbox data.
How are you parameterising the IN clause?
As you are on SQL Server 2008 I would pass in a Table Valued Parameter with two columns item and sort_order and join on that instead. Then you can just add an ORDER BY sort_order onto the end.
From KM's comment above...
I know you didn't state it is comma seperated, but if it was a CSV or even if you have it space seperated you could do the following.
DECLARE #SomeTest varchar(100) --used to hold your values
SET #SomeTest = (SELECT '68,72,103') --just some test data
SELECT
LoginID --change to your column names
FROM
Login --change to your source table name
INNER JOIN
( SELECT
*
FROM fn_IntegerInList(#SomeTest)
) n
ON
n.InListID = Login.LoginID
ORDER BY
n.SortOrder
And then create fn_IntegerInList():
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_IntegerInList] (#InListString ntext)
RETURNS #tblINList TABLE (InListID int, SortOrder int)
AS
BEGIN
declare #length int
declare #startpos int
declare #ctr int
declare #val nvarchar(50)
declare #subs nvarchar(50)
declare #sort int
set #sort=1
set #startpos = 1
set #ctr = 1
select #length = datalength(#InListString)
while (#ctr <= #length)
begin
select #val = substring(#InListString,#ctr,1)
if #val = N','
begin
select #subs = substring(#InListString,#startpos,#ctr-#startpos)
insert into #tblINList values (#subs, #sort)
set #startpos = #ctr+1
end
if #ctr = #length
begin
select #subs = substring(#InListString,#startpos,#ctr-#startpos)
insert into #tblINList values (#subs, #sort)
end
set #ctr = #ctr +1
set #sort = #sort + 1
end
RETURN
END
This way your function creates a table that holds a sort order namely, SortOrder and the ID or number you are passing in. You can of course modify this so that you are looking for space rather then , values. Otherwise Martin has the right idea in his answer. Please note in my example I am using one of my tables, so you will need to change the name Login to whatever you are dealing with.
the same way you concatenate ('113113','112112','114114') to pass to the sql sentence in the where clausule you can concatenate
order by
case item
when '113113' then 1
when '112112' then 2
when '114114' then 3
end
to pass to your order by clausule
Hi
I have DAL Layer, from where invoking a stored procedure to insert values into the table.
E.g.:-
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[DataInsert]
#DataName nvarchar(64)
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO
table01 (dataname)
VALUES
(#dataname)
END
Now as requirement changed, per client request i have to add values 5 times. So what is the best practice?
Do i call this Stored Procedure 5 times from my DAL?
or
Pass all the values (may be comma separated) to storedprocedure in one go and then let the stored procedure add it for 5 times?
BTW. Its not always 5 times. It is changeable.
You could create a user-defined table type;
CREATE TYPE [dbo].[SomeInfo] AS TABLE(
[Id] [int] NOT NULL,
[SomeValue] [int] NOT NULL )
Define your stored proc as such;
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[AddSomeStuff]
#theStuff [SomeInfo] READONLY
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO SOMETABLE ([...columns...])
SELECT [...columns...] from #theStuff
END
Then you'll need to create a datatable (called table below) that matches the schema and call the stored proc as so;
var cmd = new SqlCommand("AddSomeStuff", sqlConn) {CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure};
var param = new SqlParameter("#theStuff", SqlDbType.Structured) {Value = table};
cmd.Parameters.Add(param);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
btw this proc works - I've just written and tested it see results below!
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[DataInsert]
#DataName nvarchar(max) AS
BEGIN
DECLARE #pos SMALLINT, #str VARCHAR(max)
WHILE #DataName <> ''
BEGIN
SET #pos = CHARINDEX(',', #DataName)
IF #pos>0
BEGIN
SET #str = LEFT(#DataName, #pos-1)
SET #DataName = RIGHT(#DataName, LEN(#DataName)-#pos)
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET #str = #DataName
SET #DataName = ''
END
INSERT INTO table01 VALUES(CONVERT(VARCHAR(100),#str))
END
END
GO
then run it: -
EXEC #return_value = [dbo].[DataInsert]
#DataName = N'five, bits, of, your, data'
*rows from table01: *
five
bits
of
your
data
(5 row(s) affected)
I'd either call your proc repeatedly(that would be my choice), or else you could use XML to pass in a list of values as a single parameter.

Instead of fancy SQL code that is difficult to maintain and is not scalable, I would simply go to invoking your stored procedure multiple times.
If performance or transactional behavior is an issue, you can consider to send the commands in a single batch.
You talked about 5 insert. If the number of record to insert is much greater, you could consider bulk insert as well.
