Rich,
You can combine both sprocs into one.
Create your first sproc and then your second sproc and then create the
"master sproc" that has the following lines...
Exec sproc1
Exec sproc2
Go
Save that sproc and then run a scheduled job based on that master sproc.
Anything after GO is ignored so don't put the word GO after each step.
Eric

Subject: [dba-SQLServer] SQL Procedures - Need some advice
Background:
SQL 2000, have 2 procedures. Both run fine on their own.
Next step is to execute them on a scheduled basis, however one needs to run
and finish before the other starts.
What I want to happen:
First procedure simply deletes all records in a DataMart table. Second
procedure runs an insert query that pulls data out of many tables in our ERP
and denormalizes it into a single table structure for quick processing (37
minute query)
Can I combine both procedures into one? If so how, when I tried this the
second procedure disappeared. I had the Delete statement followed by GO,
then the Insert statement followed by GO. It seemed to save it, but when I
opened it back up it was gone (happened more then once).
Would it be easier to look for changes and only apply the changes and new
records, if so how would I go about doing this? I didn't think this would
matter in my case as the table is strictly a reference table and the 37
minute query will take 37 minutes to run no matter what.
Looking for some guidance as I am teaching myself all I can about MS SQL
SERVER.. I have done some simple procedures that only do Selects, no
cursors. Did some dynamic sql stuff but that's about as deep as I have
gotten into Procedures so if anyone could help and excuse my ignorance I
would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Rich
