Delete all procedures except those which contain a string in their name - sql-server-2008

I want to drop a lot of SPs from my SQL Server database. However, I want to write "Delete all procedures except those which contain a certain string in their name".
How can I do this? I am using SQL Server 2008 R2.
Thank

What about:
SELECT 'DROP PROCEDURE ' + name
FROM sysobjects WHERE xtype = 'U' AND
name LIKE 'usp_%' -- Here you'll define your criteria
After running this, you just need to execute this command output.

'master..sysdatabases' SQL Server syntax equivalent in MySQL

I am converting an SQL Server stored procedure to MySQL and there is the below code line in one stored procedure:
declare c1 cursor static for
select name from master..sysdatabases
where left(name,3) in ('ADM','ENT','DEM')
order by name asc
What is the functionality of 'master..sysdatabases '?
What is the equivalent syntax for master..sysdatabases in MySQL?
what is the functionality of 'master..sysdatabases '?
SQL server divides databases into
1.User databases
2.System databases..
User database are the ones which users created,system databases(master,model,tempdb,msdb )are the one which comes with SQL installation..
In this case,user is trying to query all available database names matching them with string functions..
In MYSQL,you can use this..
select * from information_schema.SCHEMATA

SSIS 2012 - Assigning variables to SQL Statement of an SQL Task

I'm trying to map a parameter and variables to a SQL statement within a SQL Task
I'm connecting to an oracle DB - the connection is working fine.
My SQL Statement is:
insert into ? values(?,?)
I map package parameter: Param1 to (parametername) 0 in the mapping screen
variable1 to (parametername) 1 in the mapping screen and variable2 to (parametername) 3
Both the parameter and variables are datatype VARCHAR, and values are:
p1 = 'TEST_TABLE
v1 = 'TEST'
v2 = 'TEST'
However, I get an error "parameters no mapped correctly"
If I enter a sql statement like: insert into TEST_TABLE values('TEST','TEST') the record is inserted into the oracle database successfully.
Any ideas?
None of the connection managers available to the Execute SQL Task support parameterizing the table name, which is what you're trying to do with the first "parameter" in your query insert into ? values(?,?) (For further details, see "Using Parameter Names and Markers" in the MSDN article Parameters and Return Codes in the Execute SQL Task.)
The generally acceptend solution is to build the insert string on the fly and execute it. Here's an example: Using Tablename as variable in ssis

SQL Server 2008 get data from unified tables

I've a stored proc like:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetData]
#code varchar(10)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
--code goes here
END
the proc reads data from one of n tables, based on #code passed. So I've a map linking codes with the actual table names, ex.
Code:"A" => dbo.JAN_SALES
Code:"B"=> dbo.FEB_SALES
All tables have the same structure. I know how to get it done by using 'red' sql, wonder if there's more elegant/performant way of doing that with SQL Server 2008?
Edit 1 - Red sql is the sql, which gets built by concatenating its parts and executed by calling something like exec('select A. B, C from ' + #myTable).
Your question seems to be clear on what needs to be done, and there are no much more posibilities than creating the T-SQL code by
1) adding IF blocks evaluating the #code parameter; or
2) using Dynamic Sql ( dynamic sql = "red" ). Please note the dynamic sql is strongly discouraged for production environments.
BTW - On SQL Server 2008 you can use *sp_executesql* proprietary stored procedure. Microsoft's MSDN describes how it works here.

How to use MySQL user-variables with ADO.NET

MySQL SQL commands can contain user variables that start with '#'.
The MySQL ADO.NET connector also uses '#' for command parameters.
Is there a way to escape the '#' character so I can use a user-variable in an SQL statement sent to MySQL via ADO.NET?
I'm trying to do something like this:
UPDATE company
SET next_job_id = #jobid:=next_job_id+1
WHERE company_id = #companyid;
SELECT #jobid;
Where #jobid is a MySQL user variable and #companyid is a parameter.
It's a connection string option - "Allow User Variables=true"
When set to true, parameters are prefixed with '?'.
Update: I've written up more on this, including how to get this to work with ADO.NET and Subsonic. See Here.

Issue calling a MySQL stored procedure (with params) via a linked server (SQL Server 2005) using OPENQUERY syntax

I'm having issues when trying to call a MySQL (5.0.77) stored procedure with parameters, via a linked server (SQL Server 2005) using the OPENQUERY syntax.
The MySQL stored procedure returns a result set, and when I use the 'EXEC ... AT ...' syntax the call works fine, e.g...
EXEC('CALL my_stored_proc(''2009-10-07'',''2009-10-07'');') AT MySQLSERVER;
The limitation of using 'EXEC ... AT ...' means I can't insert the result set into a temporary table in SQL Server, which is ultimately what I want to do. Which led me to trying the OPENQUERY syntax...
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(MySQLSERVER,'CALL my_stored_proc(''2009-10-07'',''2009-10-07'');')
...But this fails, and returns...
Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot process the object "CALL my_stored_proc(''2009-10-07'',''2009-10-07'');". The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "MySQLSERVER" indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions on that object.
Which is strange, given that the 'EXEC ... AT ...' call didn't complain about permissions. The following calls all work fine...
EXEC('SHOW TABLES;') AT MySQLSERVER;
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(MySQLSERVER,'SHOW TABLES;');
CREATE TABLE #tmpTest (
[table] varchar(255) null
);
INSERT INTO #tmpTest ([table])
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(MySQLSERVER,'SHOW TABLES;');
SELECT * FROM #tmpTest;
DROP TABLE #tmpTest;
So my question is, how can I make a call to a MySQL stored procedure, via a linked server, and store the result set in a temporary table in SQL Server? Either by using the 'EXEC ... AT ...' syntax, or by solving the object/permissions error when using the OPENQUERY syntax.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You need to enable "Ad Hoc Distributed Queries" on the SQL Server. This is not enabled by default, for security reasons. Most of the time, the "do not have permission" errors are related to this one.
Execute this on the SQL Server, and then try again your code:
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
I hope it helps.
I tried the fix to configure "Ad Hoc Distributed Queries" but was still getting this same error:
"The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "MyMySQL" indicates
that either the object has no columns or the current user does not
have permissions on that object."
I am attempting a simple remote SELECT query against a linked MySQL database.
In my case, the query I was attempting looked like this. Pay attention to the number of lines used:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY
([MyMySQL],
'
SELECT
ID as ISSUE_ID, etc..
The fix was to remove the newline after the opening single-quote. Simple, huh? But not obvious.
The working code shown below:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY
([MyMySQL],
'SELECT
ID as ISSUE_ID, etc..
Hope it helps!

I realize this a pretty old post, but my problem was similar to Rob's in that the SQL within the OPENQUERY doesn't take line breaks as whitespace the same way SQL server does.
i.e. Laying out my query as follows:
SELECT
*
FROM
OPENQUERY(LINKEDSERVER, '
SELECT
SomeField
FROM
SomeTable
')
I needed to have spaces as if it were written on one line (using _ as a visible space for demonstration):
SELECT
*
FROM
OPENQUERY(LINKEDSERVER, '
SELECT_
SomeField_
FROM_
SomeTable
')
