executeStoredProcedure: Execute a SQL Stored Procedure

executeStoredProcedure: Executes a stored procedure registered with the database

Usage

  executeStoredProcedure(sqlSP, ..., connectionString = NULL)

Arguments

sqlSP

a valid StoredProcedure Object

...

Optional input and output parameters for the stored procedure. All of the parameters that do not have default queries or values assigned to them must be provided

connectionString

A character string (must be provided if the StoredProcedure object was created without a connection string). This function requires using an ODBC driver which supports ODBC 3.8 functionality.

verbose

Boolean. Whether to print out the command used to execute the stored procedure

Value

TRUE on success, FALSE on failure

Notes

This function relies that the ODBC driver used supports ODBC 3.8 features. Otherwise it will fail.
