Jan 18, 2017  Calling a Stored Procedure with a Command.; 3 minutes to read Contributors. In this article. You can use a command to call a stored procedure. The code sample at the end of this topic refers to a stored procedure in the Northwind sample database, called CustOrdersOrders, which is defined as follows.

Answer: To call an Oracle stored procedure, you'll have to create a query using VBA code.

The first thing you need to do is create an ODBC connection to your Oracle database using the {Microsoft ODBC for Oracle} driver.

A momentary lapse of reason lyrics. To do this, go to the 'Data Sources ODBC' icon under the Control Panel and create a new Data Source using the {Microsoft ODBC for Oracle} driver.

Set up your ODBC connection.

In this example, we've setup the Data Source with a name of AAAA, with a user name of BBBB, and an Oracle server called CCCC. You'll need to configure the ODBC connection with your own settings.

Stored procedure without any parameters

This first example below would call a stored procedure call application_program_interface without any parameters passed into the stored procedure.

Open your Access database, click on the Modules tab and create a new Module.

Paste in the following code:

Please note that you'll need to customize the following line of code:

So that:

AAAA is the name of the ODBC Data Source that you set up.
BBBB is the user name that you will use to log into Oracle.
CCCC is the name of your Oracle server.
DDDD is the password that you will use to log into Oracle.

If after trying this example, you receive a 'not defined' error on the 'Dim db as Database' declaration, you will need to follow some additional instructions.

Important Tip: While it is possible to use Access to call an Oracle stored procedure, it is not possible to retrieve a status back from Oracle as to whether the Oracle stored procedure successfully executed. What we recommend is creating an audit table and then having your stored procedure write a record to this audit table indicating the status of the stored procedure. That way, you can query this table from Access to see if your stored procedure succeeded.

Stored procedure with parameters

This second example below would call a stored procedure call application_program_interface with parameters as follows:

where:

member_id is a numeric value
provider_id is a numeric value
service_date is a date value

Open your Access database, click on the Modules tab and create a new Module.

Paste in the following code:

Please note that you'll need to customize the following line of code:

So that:

AAAA is the name of the ODBC Data Source that you set up.
BBBB is the user name that you will use to log into Oracle.
CCCC is the name of your Oracle server.
DDDD is the password that you will use to log into Oracle.

If after trying this example, you receive a 'not defined' error on the 'Dim db as Database' declaration, you will need to follow some additional instructions.

This walkthrough provides a basic end-to-end LINQ to SQL scenario for accessing data by using stored procedures only. This approach is often used by database administrators to limit how the datastore is accessed.

Note

You can also use stored procedures in LINQ to SQL applications to override default behavior, especially for Create, Update, and Delete processes. For more information, see Customizing Insert, Update, and Delete Operations.

For purposes of this walkthrough, you will use two methods that have been mapped to stored procedures in the Northwind sample database: CustOrdersDetail and CustOrderHist. The mapping occurs when you run the SqlMetal command-line tool to generate a Visual Basic file. For more information, see the Prerequisites section later in this walkthrough.

This walkthrough does not rely on the Object Relational Designer. Developers using Visual Studio can also use the O/R Designer to implement stored procedure functionality. See LINQ to SQL Tools in Visual Studio.

Note

Your computer might show different names or locations for some of the Visual Studio user interface elements in the following instructions. The Visual Studio edition that you have and the settings that you use determine these elements. For more information, see Personalizing the IDE.

This walkthrough was written by using Visual Basic Development Settings.

Prerequisites

This walkthrough requires the following:

  • This walkthrough uses a dedicated folder ('c:linqtest3') to hold files. Create this folder before you begin the walkthrough.

  • The Northwind sample database.

    If you do not have this database on your development computer, you can download it from the Microsoft download site. For instructions, see Downloading Sample Databases. After you have downloaded the database, copy the northwnd.mdf file to the c:linqtest3 folder.

  • A Visual Basic code file generated from the Northwind database.

    This walkthrough was written by using the SqlMetal tool with the following command line:

    sqlmetal /code:'c:linqtest3northwind.vb' /language:vb 'c:linqtest3northwnd.mdf' /sprocs /functions /pluralize

    For more information, see SqlMetal.exe (Code Generation Tool).

Overview

This walkthrough consists of six main tasks:

  • Setting up the LINQ to SQL solution in Visual Studio.

  • Adding the System.Data.Linq assembly to the project.

  • Adding the database code file to the project.

  • Creating a connection to the database.

  • Setting up the user interface.

  • Running and testing the application.

Creating a LINQ to SQL Solution

Vba

In this first task, you create a Visual Studio solution that contains the necessary references to build and run a LINQ to SQL project.

To create a LINQ to SQL solution

  1. On the Visual Studio File menu, click New Project.

  2. In the Project types pane in the New Project dialog box, expand Visual Basic, and then click Windows.

  3. In the Templates pane, click Windows Forms Application.

  4. In the Name box, type SprocOnlyApp.

  5. Click OK.

    The Windows Forms Designer opens.

Adding the LINQ to SQL Assembly Reference

The LINQ to SQL assembly is not included in the standard Windows Forms Application template. You will have to add the assembly yourself, as explained in the following steps:

To add System.Data.Linq.dll

  1. In Solution Explorer, click Show All Files.

  2. In Solution Explorer, right-click References, and then click Add Reference.

  3. In the Add Reference dialog box, click .NET, click the System.Data.Linq assembly, and then click OK.

    The assembly is added to the project.

Adding the Northwind Code File to the Project

This step assumes that you have used the SqlMetal tool to generate a code file from the Northwind sample database. For more information, see the Prerequisites section earlier in this walkthrough.

To add the northwind code file to the project

  1. On the Project menu, click Add Existing Item.

  2. In the Add Existing Item dialog box, move to c:linqtest3northwind.vb, and then click Add.

    The northwind.vb file is added to the project.

Creating a Database Connection

In this step, you define the connection to the Northwind sample database. This walkthrough uses 'c:linqtest3northwnd.mdf' as the path.

To create the database connection

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click Form1.vb, and then click View Code.

    Class Form1 appears in the code editor.

  2. Type the following code into the Form1 code block:

Setting up the User Interface

Microsoft Access Exec Stored Procedure

In this task you create an interface so that users can execute stored procedures to access data in the database. In the application that you are developing with this walkthrough, users can access data in the database only by using the stored procedures embedded in the application.

Sql Server Execute Stored Procedure In Query

To set up the user interface

  1. Return to the Windows Forms Designer (Form1.vb[Design]).

  2. On the View menu, click Toolbox.

    The toolbox opens.

    Note

    Click the AutoHide pushpin to keep the toolbox open while you perform the remaining steps in this section.

  3. Drag two buttons, two text boxes, and two labels from the toolbox onto Form1.

    Arrange the controls as in the accompanying illustration. Expand Form1 so that the controls fit easily.

  4. Right-click Label1, and then click Properties.

  5. Change the Text property from Label1 to Enter OrderID:.

  6. In the same way for Label2, change the Text property from Label2 to Enter CustomerID:.

  7. In the same way, change the Text property for Button1 to Order Details.

  8. Change the Text property for Button2 to Order History.

    Widen the button controls so that all the text is visible.

To handle button clicks

  1. Double-click Order Details on Form1 to create the Button1 event handler and open the code editor.

  2. Type the following code into the Button1 handler:

  3. Now double-click Button2 on Form1 to create the Button2 event handler and open the code editor.

  4. Type the following code into the Button2 handler:

Testing the Application

Microsoft Access Vba Execute Query

Now it is time to test your application. Note that your contact with the datastore is limited to whatever actions the two stored procedures can take. Those actions are to return the products included for any orderID you enter, or to return a history of products ordered for any CustomerID you enter.

To test the application

  1. Press F5 to start debugging.

    Form1 appears.

  2. In the Enter OrderID box, type 10249 and then click Order Details.

    A message box lists the products included in order 10249.

    Click OK to close the message box.

  3. In the Enter CustomerID box, type ALFKI, and then click Order History.

    A message box lists the order history for customer ALFKI.

    Click OK to close the message box.

  4. In the Enter OrderID box, type 123, and then click Order Details.

    A message box displays 'No results.'

    Click OK to close the message box.

  5. On the Debug menu, click Stop debugging.

    The debug session closes.

  6. If you have finished experimenting, you can click Close Project on the File menu, and save your project when you are prompted.

Next Steps

You can enhance this project by making some changes. For example, you could list available stored procedures in a list box and have the user select which procedures to execute. You could also stream the output of the reports to a text file.
