How to add background color of row based to existing SP/query

  • Team - I have this SP to generate DB mirroring status report daily, but I like to add color to each row results.

    Can someone help me add this to the below query.

    ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[Mirroring_Status]

    AS

    --Display the status of the databases

    DECLARE @xml NVARCHAR(MAX)

    DECLARE @body NVARCHAR(MAX)

    SET @xml = CAST((

    SELECT

    databasename AS 'td' ,'',

    mirroring_role_desc AS 'td' ,'',

    mirroring_state_desc AS 'td' ,'',

    CASE mirroring_role_desc

    WHEN 'MIRROR' THEN mirroring_partner_instance

    WHEN 'PRINCIPAL' THEN principal

    END AS 'td' ,'',

    CASE mirroring_role_desc

    WHEN 'MIRROR' THEN principal

    WHEN 'PRINCIPAL' THEN mirroring_partner_instance

    END 'td' ,'',

    CASE mirroring_safety_level

    WHEN 1 THEN 'HIGH PERFORMANCE'

    WHEN 2 THEN 'HIGH SAFETY'

    END 'td' ,''

    FROM openquery([LinkedServer], 'select @@servername as ''principal'', db_name(database_id) as "databasename",* from master.sys.database_mirroring')

    WHERE mirroring_state IS NOT NULL

    Order by databasename

    FOR XML PATH('tr'), ELEMENTS ) AS NVARCHAR(MAX));

    SET @body ='<html><body>

    Database Mirroring Status Report

    <table border = 1>

    <tr>

    <tr bgcolor="gray">

    <th>Database</th>

    <th>Role</th>

    <th>State</th>

    <th>Principal_Instance </th>

    <th>DR_Instance </th>

    <th>Operating Mode </th>

    </tr>'

    SET @body = @body + @xml +'</table></body></html>'

    EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail

    @profile_name = 'Mail profile', -- enter Database Mail profile name

    @recipients = 'Email.com', -- list of Email recipients

    @subject = 'Database Mirroring Status Report',

    @body = @body,

    @body_format ='HTML';

  • Hi,

    it is very diffucult to read the t-sql. Try to put your code in the right form

     

    select @@version

    It is very easy.

  • When I do things like this, I return separate columns for the properties I wish to control (font, bold, colour etc) and then assign those columns to the relevant Tablix cells in SSRS.

    If you haven't even tried to resolve your issue, please don't expect the hard-working volunteers here to waste their time providing links to answers which you could easily have found yourself.

    Also, attached the script.

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm thinking he might not be using SSRS for this one.

    I'm thinking you're dead right! For some reason, my mind immediately jumped to that conclusion, without evidence. Notwithstanding that, this problem looks like one which could be solved easily in SSRS!

    You've been around for a long time and I think I've shown you this before but one more time.

    When you're filling out a post and you're ready to add code to the post, put the insertion point where you want the code to go and then click on the "code button" at the top of the post-entry window (highlighted in Rec in the following graphic).  That will cause a code window to pop up.  Past your code in that and then click "OK'.

    As a bit of a sidebar, please make sure that your code is NOT double spaced.  Also,  comment here and there to identify the parts of the code would also save us some time as it would you or someone else in the future when they're trying do modify your code.

    Yes, but instead of us going back and forth, this is one place where a graphic would actually help.  Please show us an example of what you want the report to look like even if you have to truss one up in Excel or whatever.

  • To answer the question that I think you're asking, do something like this just before you combine @Body and @XML.

    SET @xml = REPLACE(@XML,'<tr>','<tr style="background-color:Red; color:White; ">')

    If you intend to change colors for each row depending on the content of the row, (I haven't tried it) you could just conditionally add the "style" notation to the beginning of the database name.

  • Hi Jeff - just checking to see if you got a chance to test it.

  • Ah, my apologies.  No.  Have not gotten to this yet and I'm not sure about tonight because I have a presentation to give tonight.  Thank you for the reminder and I'll try to get to it after the presentation that occurs right after work today.

    Ok.  I don't actually have any mirrored databases anywhere but I tested this the best I could.  I'll let you put the stored procedure wrapper around it when you're ready.  I also formatted the code as if I were going to put it into production on one of my boxes.  Most of the code is your original code with a bit of formatting.

    I also added a nice, informative caption above the table with the server instance name and date/time the report was created.
