Hi everybody,
I'm using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I'm trying to create a field which contains a text entered by the user. So, it should be able to contain at least 500 characters.
I used the type "nvarchar(MAX)". The problem is that the type contains about 50 characters max!!
I couldn't find out where and how to fix that.
If you have any idea :)
Thanks a lot
nvarchar(max) I have a nvarchar(MAX) “Description” field in my SQL Server 2005 database. Somewhere I think I read that nvarchar(MAX) is the size of 4000. My question is in my Insert Stored Proc set ANSI_NULLS ONset QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[syl_CodeScheduleTypeInsert] @ScheduleName nvarchar(50), @ScheduleDescription nvarchar(????????)ASBEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; BEGIN TRY INSERT I What number should replace the ???????? with? nvarchar(4000) is that correct? I tried nvarchar(MAX) and nvarchar but both versions only input one character into my database table. Please help a newbie out, cheers!

Hi,
I get "Error converting data type nvarchar to int." It is some kind of SQL exception. This is the code in my application.
SqlConnection sqlConnection1 = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
Object start;
string activityID = Session["activitygroupID"].ToString();
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ActivityGroupID", activityID);
cmd.CommandText = "get_startdate";
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Connection = sqlConnection1;
sqlConnection1.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader(); //The code stops here!!!
start = reader["StartDate"];
sqlConnection1.Close();
The stored procedure on the SQL-server looks like so. StartDate is of DateTime type.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[get_startdate]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@ActivityGroupID int
AS
BEGIN
SELECT StartDate
FROM dbo.CurrentGroup
WHERE ActivityGroupID = @ActivityGroupID
END
I appreciate any help!

Hi
I have an insert stored procedure with a parameter @eventDate date type date time. I have written a web form that takes the textbox.text value and assigns to the @eventDate parameter using a querystring. Howevr when I run the application I get a SQL Exception error converting data type nvarchar to datetime.
I have tried dssqlInsertEvent.InsertParameters.add("EventDate", convert.todatetime(txtEventDate.text)); wbut received another error.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I am using the below query for calculation and I get this error.
Operand data type nvarchar is invalid for sum operator.
'$ '+ REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE(CONVERT(varchar,(CAST(round(isnull(sum(t7.[Pre Override Cost]),0),0) as money) + 1 -
cast(round(isnull(sum(t8.[Shared Dollars]),0),0)as money)),1)),4,255)) as [PreOverride L2],

I am using MS SQL Server 2008R2 along with VB 2010.The first question is: why is it even trying to convert anything to numeric? I have NO numeric data types. And I don't have any nvarchar data types either. I'm very confused.Doesn't nchar include any and all characters, in any combination? Should I change everything to text data type? Maybe something else? Some values are going to be blank. The Lab/Source Lots have numbers, letters and dashes.
My stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.MChemsInsert
(
@LabLot nchar(10),
@Chem nchar(50),
@Source nchar(50),
@SourceLot nchar(10),
[code]....
This is a common error for SQL Server, but I got it in a uncommon way.I have a table called - tblIDNumber where there are two columns - IDN_Number [NVarchar(200)] and Temp [BigInt]
If I run,
SELECT *
FROM dbo.tblIDNumber
WHERE IDN_IDNumberTypeStaticValue = 33
AND IDN_Removed = 0
AND CAST(IDN_Number AS BIGINT) = 1
SQL Server give me the error:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Error converting data type nvarchar to bigint.
I first thought IDN_Number in type 33 has characters, but it doesn't, becasue the below query works!!!
UPDATE dbo.tblIDNumber
SET Temp = CAST(IDN_Number AS BIGINT)
WHERE IDN_IDNumberTypeStaticValue = 33
AND IDN_Removed = 0
To workaround, I ran the query,
UPDATE dbo.tblIDNumber
SET IDN_Number = '123'
WHERE IDN_IDNumberTypeStaticValue = 33
AND IDN_Removed = 0
and then I ran the first query, and SQL Server does NOT give me the same error - Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1 Error converting data type nvarchar to bigint.
Second query approved there is nothing wrong from converting the value in IDN_Number to a BigInt, but the third query gave the hint that data might be the cause?????
finally, I found the root cause to be an index that the first query uses :
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [IX_tblIDNumber_Covering] ON [dbo].[tblIDNumber]
(
[IDN_Removed] ASC,
[IDNumberCode] ASC
)
INCLUDE ( [IDN_Number],
[IDN_Reference]) WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, DROP_EXISTING = OFF, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON, FILLFACTOR = 85) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
If I remove the index, the first query works without the error.
Hi,
I'm pretty desperat after trying solving the above problem in several days. I hope somone here can help me :-)
I have this stored procedure. When I try to Execute the storedprocedure where I have a date as parameter I get the above error.
I checked (many times), that the input parameter is a datetime format (30-05-2008) and also I checked the tabel and it is datetime format. I checked the table to see if it was english datetime format - but all the datetimes that are listet are listed in danish datetime format DD-MM-YYYY.
In the stored procedure I try this:
fProjectSkuTimeStamp >= @ReducedTime
I can't figure out where it gets that nvarchar from?
My stored procedure look like this:
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
set NOCOUNT ON
go
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetProjectSkuList]

Hi,
I have a webform with a drop-down listbox, binded to a table and a GridView, binded to another table. My goal is when I select a value (country in my case) in the drop-down listbox to change what is shown in the GridView, based on the ID that I get from the drop-down listbox.
Here is the code (the important parts...):
Select a Country : <asp:DropDownList ID="CountriesDropDownList" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="CountryID" Width="220px" AutoPostBack="True">
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:MyConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [CountryID], [Name] FROM [DS_Country]">

<Columns>
..............................
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DineSelectConnectionString %>"
DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM DS_Province WHERE ProvinceID=@ProvinceID"
SelectCommand="SELECT ProvinceID,CountryID,Name,ShortName,Description FROM DS_Province WHERE CountryID=@ddlCountryID"
UpdateCommand="UPDATE DS_Province SET CountryID=@CountryID,Name=@Name,ShortName=@ShortName,Description=@Description WHERE ProvinceID=@ddlCountryID"
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO DS_Province (CountryID,Name,ShortName,Description) VALUES (@CountryID,@Name,@ShortName,@Description)">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter Name="ddlCountryID" ControlID="CountriesDropDownList" PropertyName="DataValueField" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
When I run it I get this error "Syntax error converting the nvarchar value 'CountryID' to a column of data type int.". If I specify the Type="Int" in <asp:ControlParameter>..</> I get "Input string was not in a correct format. "
This is supposed to be easy, but I can't make it work ! Any suggestions will be more than welcome.
Thanks.

In the following code I want to compare 2 values: AccessVal and SQLVal. The values are stored as nvarchars, so I'm isolating the numeric values in a subquery. Notice I'm only selecting 1 row. The commented line, where I compare the values, is throwing the error.
SELECT QA_AutoID, AccessVal, SQLVal
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, AccessVal,1)),0) as AccessFloat
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, SQLVal,1)),0) as SQLFloat

WHERE QA_AutoID in (
SELECT TOP 1 QA_AutoID

ORDER BY ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, AccessVal,1)),0) DESC
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, SQLVal,1)),0) DESC
Here is the output with the comparison commented out...
Here's what I get with the comparison line activated:

Order No has a data type of INT and Job No has a data type NVARCHAR(8). In the above case statement i'm not trying to convert anything but just display a column depending on the out come of the case statement. If anyone knows how to get around this error you help would be very welcome.

Hi, all
I'm getting this error at runtime when my page tries to populate a datagrid. Here's the relevant code.
First, the user selects his choice from a dropdownlist, populated with a sqldatasource control on the aspx side:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sqlDataSourceCompany" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [PayrollCompanyID], [DisplayName] FROM [rsrc_PayrollCompany] ORDER BY [DisplayName]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
And the dropdown list's code:<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlPayrollCompany" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" DataSourceID="sqlDataSourcePayrollCompany"
DataTextField="DisplayName" DataValueField="PayrollCompanyID">
</asp:DropDownList>
Then, I use the selectedindexchanged event to bind the data to the datagrid. Here's that code:
1 Sub BindData()
2
3 Dim ds As New DataSet
4 Dim sda As SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
5 Dim strSQL As String
6 Dim strCon As String
7
8 strSQL = "SELECT [SocialSecurityNumber], [Prefix], [FirstName], [LastName], [HireDate], [PayrollCostPercent], " & _
9 "[Phone], [BadgeNumber], [IsSupervisor], [SupervisorID], [IsUser], [IsScout] FROM [rsrc_Personnel] " & _
10 "WHERE ([PayrollCompanyID] = @PayrollCompanyID)"
11
12 strCon = "Data Source=DATASOURCE;Initial Catalog=DATABASE;User ID=USERID;Password=PASSWORD"
13
14 sda = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(strSQL, strCon)
15

19
20 dgPersonnel.DataSource = ds.Tables("rsrc_Personnel")
21 dgPersonnel.DataBind()
22
23 End Sub
24
I'm assuming my problem lies in line 16 of the above code. I've tried SelectedItemIndex, SelectedItemValue too and get errors for those, as well.
What am I missing?
Thanks for anyone's help!

View 1 Replies View RelatedHey folks, the question is fairly simple, unfortunately the answer has proven rather elusive.
Is it possible to declare a variable which would then be used to identify either a column or table in an SQL statement?
Here's a basic idea of what I'd like to do:
DECLARE @myVar AS NVARCHAR(50)
SELECT *
FROM @myVar
or
DECLARE @myVar AS NVARCHAR(50)
SELECT @myVar
FROM MyTable
I'm probably looking for some sort of built in function that will accept an argument here... like COLUMN(@myVar) or something of the like. I just don't know where to look...
I am trying to convert a column (nvarchar) to date time.

However, I am unsure how I should approach updating the whole column. I would like the format to be '103'.
Hi - I am changing a field from type nvarchar to type text, given thatI need to store strings longer than 255 characters. To do this Ichange the data type in SQL Server, then I change the parameter code inthe calling procedure, as per below:cmd.Parameters.Append(cmd.CreateParameter("@title", adVarWChar,adParamInput, 255, title));becomes:cmd.Parameters.Append(cmd.CreateParameter("@title", adLongVarWChar,adParamInput, 1073741823, title));However, when I do this, for some reason, the field is still limited to255 characters - when I try to update the field with 256 characters,the error 'Application uses a value of the wrong type for the currentoperation.' occurs.Why is this? I've checked that the correct data is contained in theparameter. When I look at the data in the database, the column inquestion shows the content, whereas the next column, which has alwaysbeen of type text, shows '<LongText>' - does this mean anything? Do Ineed to do something special to convert the column from nvarchar totext?Many thanks,Iain
