I have a table which references itself and I need to be able to select the parent and all it's child records from a given parent Id.
My table is as follows:
ID | ParentID | Name
-----------------------
1 NULL A
2 1 B-1
3 1 B-2
4 2 C-1
5 2 C-2
So for the above example I'd like to be able to pass in a value of 1 and get all the records above.
So far, I've come up with the following recursive table-valued-function but it's not behaving as expected (only returning the first record).
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[SelectBranches]
(
@id INT
,@parentId INT
)
RETURNS @branchTable TABLE
(
ID INT
,ParentID INT
,Name INT
)
AS
BEGIN
IF @branchId IS NOT NULL BEGIN
INSERT INTO @branchTable
SELECT
ID
,ParentID
,Name
FROM
tblLinkAdvertiserCity
WHERE
ID = @id
END
INSERT INTO @branchTable
SELECT
br.ID
,br.ParentID
,br.Name
FROM
@branchTable b
CROSS APPLY
dbo.SelectBranches(NULL, b.ParentID) br
RETURN
END
GO
You can try this
DECLARE @Table TABLE(
ID INT,
ParentID INT,
NAME VARCHAR(20)
)
INSERT INTO @Table (ID,ParentID,[NAME]) SELECT 1, NULL, 'A'
INSERT INTO @Table (ID,ParentID,[NAME]) SELECT 2, 1, 'B-1'
INSERT INTO @Table (ID,ParentID,[NAME]) SELECT 3, 1, 'B-2'
INSERT INTO @Table (ID,ParentID,[NAME]) SELECT 4, 2, 'C-1'
INSERT INTO @Table (ID,ParentID,[NAME]) SELECT 5, 2, 'C-2'
DECLARE @ID INT
SELECT @ID = 2
;WITH ret AS(
SELECT *
FROM @Table
WHERE ID = @ID
UNION ALL
SELECT t.*
FROM @Table t INNER JOIN
ret r ON t.ParentID = r.ID
)
SELECT *
FROM ret
