Procedure or function \'ColumnSeek\' expects parame         


        

Answer 1

I come across similar problem while calling stored procedure

CREATE PROCEDURE UserPreference_Search
    @UserPreferencesId int,
    @SpecialOfferMails char(1),
    @NewsLetters char(1),
    @UserLoginId int,
    @Currency varchar(50)
AS
DECLARE @QueryString nvarchar(4000)

SET @QueryString = 'SELECT UserPreferencesId,SpecialOfferMails,NewsLetters,UserLoginId,Currency FROM UserPreference'
IF(@UserPreferencesId IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE UserPreferencesId = @DummyUserPreferencesId';
END

IF(@SpecialOfferMails IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE SpecialOfferMails = @DummySpecialOfferMails';
END

IF(@NewsLetters IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE NewsLetters = @DummyNewsLetters';
END

IF(@UserLoginId IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE UserLoginId = @DummyUserLoginId';
END

IF(@Currency IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE Currency = @DummyCurrency';
END

EXECUTE SP_EXECUTESQL @QueryString
                     ,N'@DummyUserPreferencesId int, @DummySpecialOfferMails char(1), @DummyNewsLetters char(1), @DummyUserLoginId int, @DummyCurrency varchar(50)'
                     ,@DummyUserPreferencesId=@UserPreferencesId
                     ,@DummySpecialOfferMails=@SpecialOfferMails
                     ,@DummyNewsLetters=@NewsLetters
                     ,@DummyUserLoginId=@UserLoginId
                     ,@DummyCurrency=@Currency;

Which dynamically constructing the query for search I was calling above one by:

public DataSet Search(int? AccessRightId, int? RoleId, int? ModuleId, char? CanAdd, char? CanEdit, char? CanDelete, DateTime? CreatedDatetime, DateTime? LastAccessDatetime, char? Deleted)
    {
        dbManager.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MSSQL"].ToString();
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        try
        {
            dbManager.Open();
            dbManager.CreateParameters(9);
            dbManager.AddParameters(0, "@AccessRightId", AccessRightId, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(1, "@RoleId", RoleId, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(2, "@ModuleId", ModuleId, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(3, "@CanAdd", CanAdd, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(4, "@CanEdit", CanEdit, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(5, "@CanDelete", CanDelete, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(6, "@CreatedDatetime", CreatedDatetime, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(7, "@LastAccessDatetime", LastAccessDatetime, ParameterDirection.Input);
            dbManager.AddParameters(8, "@Deleted", Deleted, ParameterDirection.Input);
            ds = dbManager.ExecuteDataSet(CommandType.StoredProcedure, "AccessRight_Search");
            return ds;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
        }
        finally
        {
            dbManager.Dispose();
        }
        return ds;
    }

Then after lot of head scratching I modified stored procedure to:

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[AccessRight_Search]
    @AccessRightId int=null,
    @RoleId int=null,
    @ModuleId int=null,
    @CanAdd char(1)=null,
    @CanEdit char(1)=null,
    @CanDelete char(1)=null,
    @CreatedDatetime datetime=null,
    @LastAccessDatetime datetime=null,
    @Deleted char(1)=null
AS
DECLARE @QueryString nvarchar(4000)
DECLARE @HasWhere bit
SET @HasWhere=0

SET @QueryString = 'SELECT a.AccessRightId, a.RoleId,a.ModuleId, a.CanAdd, a.CanEdit, a.CanDelete, a.CreatedDatetime, a.LastAccessDatetime, a.Deleted, b.RoleName, c.ModuleName FROM AccessRight a, Role b, Module c WHERE a.RoleId = b.RoleId AND a.ModuleId = c.ModuleId'

SET @HasWhere=1;

IF(@AccessRightId IS NOT NULL)
    BEGIN
        IF(@HasWhere=0) 
            BEGIN
                SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.AccessRightId = @DummyAccessRightId';
                SET @HasWhere=1;
            END
        ELSE                SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.AccessRightId = @DummyAccessRightId';
    END

IF(@RoleId IS NOT NULL)
    BEGIN
        IF(@HasWhere=0)
            BEGIN   
                SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.RoleId = @DummyRoleId';
                SET @HasWhere=1;
            END
        ELSE            SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.RoleId = @DummyRoleId';
    END

IF(@ModuleId IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
            BEGIN   
                SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.ModuleId = @DummyModuleId';
                SET @HasWhere=1;
            END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.ModuleId = @DummyModuleId';
END

IF(@CanAdd IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
            BEGIN       
                SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.CanAdd = @DummyCanAdd';
                SET @HasWhere=1;
            END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.CanAdd = @DummyCanAdd';
END

IF(@CanEdit IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
        BEGIN
            SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.CanEdit = @DummyCanEdit';
            SET @HasWhere=1;
        END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.CanEdit = @DummyCanEdit';
END

IF(@CanDelete IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
        BEGIN
            SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.CanDelete = @DummyCanDelete';
            SET @HasWhere=1;
        END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.CanDelete = @DummyCanDelete';
END

IF(@CreatedDatetime IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
    BEGIN
        SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.CreatedDatetime = @DummyCreatedDatetime';
        SET @HasWhere=1;
    END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.CreatedDatetime = @DummyCreatedDatetime';
END

IF(@LastAccessDatetime IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
    IF(@HasWhere=0) 
        BEGIN
            SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.LastAccessDatetime = @DummyLastAccessDatetime';
            SET @HasWhere=1;
        END
    ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.LastAccessDatetime = @DummyLastAccessDatetime';
END

IF(@Deleted IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
  IF(@HasWhere=0)   
    BEGIN
        SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' WHERE a.Deleted = @DummyDeleted';
        SET @HasWhere=1;
    END
  ELSE SET @QueryString = @QueryString + ' AND a.Deleted = @DummyDeleted';
END

PRINT @QueryString

EXECUTE SP_EXECUTESQL @QueryString
                      ,N'@DummyAccessRightId int, @DummyRoleId int, @DummyModuleId int, @DummyCanAdd char(1), @DummyCanEdit char(1), @DummyCanDelete char(1), @DummyCreatedDatetime datetime, @DummyLastAccessDatetime datetime, @DummyDeleted char(1)'
                      ,@DummyAccessRightId=@AccessRightId
                      ,@DummyRoleId=@RoleId
                      ,@DummyModuleId=@ModuleId
                      ,@DummyCanAdd=@CanAdd
                      ,@DummyCanEdit=@CanEdit
                      ,@DummyCanDelete=@CanDelete
                      ,@DummyCreatedDatetime=@CreatedDatetime
                      ,@DummyLastAccessDatetime=@LastAccessDatetime
                      ,@DummyDeleted=@Deleted;

HERE I am Initializing the Input Params of Stored Procedure to null as Follows

    @AccessRightId int=null,
@RoleId int=null,
@ModuleId int=null,
@CanAdd char(1)=null,
@CanEdit char(1)=null,
@CanDelete char(1)=null,
@CreatedDatetime datetime=null,
@LastAccessDatetime datetime=null,
@Deleted char(1)=null

that did the trick for Me.

I hope this will be helpfull to someone who fall in similar trap.
