If I have a table, let's say Customers
and I want to receive from the user a number (Form) and create X rows in the Customer table.
Let's say the customer put the number 4 I want 4 new rows at the Customer Table.
How can I do this?
insert into Customer Valus ('Helen' , 36 )
You could use a stored procedure and then pass the number of customers you want added. Something like this...
create procedure AddNewCustomers
@NumberOfCustToAdd int
as
declare @counter int
set @counter = 0
while @counter < @NumberOfCustToAdd
begin
//put your insert statement here
set @counter = @counter + 1
end
go
Then, call the procedure passing the number of customers that the user requested...
exec AddNewCustomers @NumberOfCustomersToCreate
Is this what you want -
INSERT INTO Customers(Name)
VALUES(NULL)
GO 10
This will insert 10 rows which you can update later.
Here you go, this will generate 4 identical rows from passed in variables. This will max out at 100 rows.
Un-comment and correct insert statement as you see fit.
DECLARE @I INT, @NAME NVARCHAR(10)
SET @NAME = 'HELEN'
SET @I=4
;WITH MYCTE
AS
(
SELECT @NAME AS NAME, X=1
UNION ALL
SELECT NAME, X+1
FROM MYCTE
WHERE X<@I
)
-- INSERT INTO...
SELECT *
FROM MYCTE OPTION(MAXRECURSION 100)
