Sql - String concatenation in procedure parameters

If you want to concatenate strings in procedure parameters in SQL, you'll typically do that before passing the concatenated string as a parameter to the procedure.

Here's how you can concatenate strings before calling a stored procedure:

DECLARE @ConcatenatedString VARCHAR(100); DECLARE @Param1 INT; DECLARE @Param2 VARCHAR(50); -- Concatenate strings SET @ConcatenatedString = 'SomeValue ' + CAST(@Param1 AS VARCHAR) + ' ' + @Param2; -- Call the stored procedure with the concatenated string as a parameter EXEC YourStoredProcedure @ConcatenatedString;

In this example:

  • @Param1 and @Param2 are the individual strings or values you want to concatenate.
  • @ConcatenatedString is a variable that holds the concatenated string.
  • You concatenate the strings using the + operator and optionally cast any non-string values to VARCHAR.
  • Finally, you call the stored procedure YourStoredProcedure with the concatenated string as a parameter.

Adjust the data types and lengths of variables according to your specific requirements. Also, make sure the stored procedure accepts a parameter of the appropriate data type for the concatenated string.

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_InsertCustomer with input parameters @FirstName, @LastName, and @Email, and an output parameter @CustomerDetails that concatenates these parameters.

  4. SQL concatenate date and string in stored procedure parameter

    Description: This query shows how to concatenate a date and a string within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_InsertEvent @EventName NVARCHAR(100), @EventDate DATE, @EventDetails NVARCHAR(200) OUTPUT AS BEGIN SET @EventDetails = 'Event: ' + @EventName + ', Date: ' + CONVERT(NVARCHAR(50), @EventDate, 101); -- Insert logic or other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_InsertEvent with input parameters @EventName and @EventDate, and an output parameter @EventDetails that concatenates these parameters.

  5. SQL Server concatenate columns in stored procedure

    Description: This query demonstrates how to concatenate columns from a table within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetFullName @UserID INT, @FullName NVARCHAR(100) OUTPUT AS BEGIN SELECT @FullName = FirstName + ' ' + LastName FROM Users WHERE UserID = @UserID; -- Other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_GetFullName that retrieves FirstName and LastName from the Users table based on @UserID and concatenates them into @FullName.

  6. SQL concatenate strings with conditions in stored procedure

    Description: This query shows how to concatenate strings with conditions within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetEmployeeInfo @EmployeeID INT, @EmployeeInfo NVARCHAR(200) OUTPUT AS BEGIN DECLARE @FullName NVARCHAR(100); SELECT @FullName = FirstName + ' ' + LastName FROM Employees WHERE EmployeeID = @EmployeeID; IF @FullName IS NOT NULL SET @EmployeeInfo = 'Employee Name: ' + @FullName; ELSE SET @EmployeeInfo = 'Employee not found'; -- Other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_GetEmployeeInfo that retrieves FirstName and LastName from the Employees table based on @EmployeeID, concatenates them into @FullName, and sets @EmployeeInfo with a condition.

  7. SQL concatenate strings with NULL handling in stored procedure

    Description: This query demonstrates how to concatenate strings with NULL handling within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetCustomerDetails @CustomerID INT, @CustomerDetails NVARCHAR(200) OUTPUT AS BEGIN DECLARE @FullName NVARCHAR(100); SELECT @FullName = COALESCE(FirstName + ' ', '') + COALESCE(LastName, '') FROM Customers WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID; SET @CustomerDetails = 'Customer Name: ' + @FullName; -- Other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_GetCustomerDetails that retrieves FirstName and LastName from the Customers table based on @CustomerID, handles NULL values using COALESCE, and concatenates them into @FullName.

  8. SQL Server concatenate strings with delimiter in procedure parameter

    Description: This query shows how to concatenate strings with a delimiter within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetEmployeeSkills @EmployeeID INT, @Skills NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT AS BEGIN SELECT @Skills = COALESCE(@Skills + ', ', '') + Skill FROM EmployeeSkills WHERE EmployeeID = @EmployeeID; -- Other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_GetEmployeeSkills that retrieves Skill from the EmployeeSkills table based on @EmployeeID, concatenates them into @Skills with a delimiter (', ').

  9. SQL concatenate strings with newline in procedure parameter

    Description: This query demonstrates how to concatenate strings with a newline character within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetOrderDetails @OrderID INT, @OrderSummary NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT AS BEGIN DECLARE @ProductList NVARCHAR(MAX); SELECT @ProductList = COALESCE(@ProductList + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10), '') + ProductName FROM OrderDetails WHERE OrderID = @OrderID; SET @OrderSummary = 'Products Ordered:' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) + @ProductList; -- Other operations END;

    Code Explanation: Defines a stored procedure usp_GetOrderDetails that retrieves ProductName from the OrderDetails table based on @OrderID, concatenates them into @ProductList with a newline (CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)), and sets @OrderSummary with a header and newline.

  10. SQL Server concatenate dynamic columns in procedure parameter

    Description: This query demonstrates how to concatenate dynamic columns from a table within a stored procedure parameter.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_GetDynamicColumnConcat @TableName NVARCHAR(100), @ColumnName NVARCHAR(100), @ConcatenatedValues NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT AS BEGIN DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(MAX); SET @SQL = 'SELECT @ConcatenatedValues = COALESCE(@ConcatenatedValues + '', '', '''') + ' + @ColumnName + ' FROM ' + @TableName + ';'; EXEC sp_executesql @SQL, N'@ConcatenatedValues NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT', @ConcatenatedValues OUTPUT; END;
