    Hello, we've got a need to present a grid of data that is generated by a stored procedure on an external database. 

    We can't seem to get Dynamic Views to access the data. I think we've tried all the combinations of free form and regular queries, and they all seem to fail when we try to generate the columns with "The stored procedure 'dbo.DataSprings_RetrieveDynamicView' doesn't exist."

    Is it possible to pull data from a stored procedure on an external database (SQL 2005, if that matters)?

    Hello Jeff,

    Yes this is possible,

    you will need to include the connection string for this external database in the External Connection textbox field in the Dynamic View Module Configurations.

    If you have any questions please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    Ryan,

    I definitely have the connection string in there.  I can see a table in the remote DB but can't execute a sproc.

    Hello Jeff,

    This is very strange, does your database have an object qualifier?

    Maybe you can try placing this under Custom SQL Query:

    exec theNameOfYourStoredProcedure

    Does your stored procedure take in any parameters?

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    It's not a DNN database, so I don't think it has object qualifiers.  The sproc does take parameters, which are currently being supplied explicitly, though eventually, they would be dynamic (if I can get sprocs to work).

    In the custom sql query, i have:

    EXEC MySprocName '2010-10-10', 1,1

    Hello Jeff,

    Well I find this very interesting that it's not working with stored procedures.

    Can you try creating a SQL function that performs the same actions as your stored procedures, and then call the function in Custom SQL Query?

    So just to be clear you can use tables from this external DB but you can't run stored procedures?

    What DNN version and Dynamic Views version are you running on?

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    DNN 5.5.1, Dynamic Views 2.0.0.

    I have tried, essentially, the following:

    1) SELECT TOP 10 * FROM FOO WHERE BAR = 33

    2) EXEC spFoo 33

    3) SELECT * FROM dbo.fnFoo(33)

    #1 works, #3 works, but #2 egenerates an error: "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'EXEC'. Incorrect syntax near ')'." Though running that exact query in the query analyzer of SSMS works fine.

    (I've tried it as EXEC and EXECUTE, and with and without a trailing semicolon with the same results.)

    Also, I had to run the Create Procedure dbo.[DataSprings_RetrieveDynamicView] that Chad posted in another thread in my external database to get the query to run at all.  It looked like that wouldn't be necessary in future versions, but it still must be.

    Hello Jeff,

    It has been recently confirmed that stored procedures can't be used in the Custom SQL Query and Actions.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks and sorry for the delayed response.
