My app uses .net 1.1 and MS SQL 2005 as backend. How to add a SqlParamter that is varchar(MAX)?
SqlParameter myParameter = new SqlParameter("@Description",SqlDbType.VarChar,whatToPutHere?,ParameterDirection.Input,
true,0,0,"Whatever",DataRowVersion.Current,"Whatever");
I have an overloaded method in my data access layer that I use to load the parameters into a command object. One of these overloaded methods is as follows:
public void LoadSqlParameter(string name, string value, ParameterDirection direction){ param = new SqlParameter(); param.ParameterName = name; param.Value = value; param.Direction = direction;
param.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.VarChar;
cmd.Parameters.Add(param);}
Will using a SqlDbType of VarChar cause me any problems if the actual parameter in the stored procedure is a Char?
Am I better off leaving out the line that specifies the type?
Thanks
hi, I want to enter numbers like this and do not know what kind of data type the field should hold, 1 5/8 , 3/4 etc... I kept having error in sql sever to accept such data.

I have just migrated an Access database to the SQL Server.All of a sudden, some of the append queries no longer work. The reason why, is because some of the values in the source table fields, are a series of spaces. When a Trim(TheseFields) is applied, the data will append. Why is that? The datatype of these fields on the SQL Server is set as Varchar(50) and to accept nulls. How can I get these fields to accept spaces? Thanks - I hope.

Hi,
I am creating a parameter of type text, and using either of the 3 statements below, to specify the size of the text. Unfortunately none of the statements put all the text into the database.
The receiving column is Text(16) and Text in Row is turned off.
I really would appreciate any help with this.
Many thanks,

sqlParam = New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@varResponse", SqlDbType.Text) ', 2147483647, ParameterDirection.Input)
or
sqlParam = New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@varResponse", SqlDbType.Text)
or sqlParam = New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@varResponse", SqlDbType.VarChar, 4000)
then
sqlParam.Value = Me.ResponseText
I have a field in my SQL Server 2005 database of type numeric(18,3)In code, I treat the value as decimalWhen creating my command parameters, this is how I'm declaring them:prm.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Decimal;prm.Precision = (byte)int.Parse("18");prm.Size = int.Parse("0");prm.Scale = (byte)int.Parse("3");Inserting a number like 5.687 is rounding to 6.000 anyone know why it is doing that?

My checkbox status is saved as SqlDbType.Bit in MS SQl Server database.
When I use the following code to retrieve it, it does not work.
myRow[myColumn].ToString()=="1"
I appreciate your kind assistance.
Thank you.
i have string variable as,
String str="Int";
now, while assigning sql parameters, i want
param.SqlDBType=SqlDBType.Int;
but, value of Int is dynamic. it may be string or double so,
i want it to be as,
param.SqlDBType=(SqlDBType)str;
but its not acceptable(its invalid cast).
in any way can i do it and how?
regards---
How much if any of a perf gain is there when you specify the SqlDbType on a parameter?

Here is my code:
Dim oParameter As New System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeParameter("@pMyParameter", SqlDbType.Binary, 3000)
If you set a watch on this object, the size is set back to 510. I have tried resetting the size back to 3000 after construction using oParameter.Size, but it doesn't change from 510. If the command is executed using ExecNonQuery, this causes the bytes to get cut off at 510 bytes and returns the error: Byte array truncation to a length of 510.
Can I insert data into SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition, into a field of data type binary(3000) using .NET CF 2.0 via SqlServerCe objects?
Thanks for any help.

Hi I was hoping that someone might be able to help me with this.
I'm trying to figure out why my VB.net code below generates 0 or 1 but doesn't insert it when I can execute my stored procedure with: exec sp 0
myParm = myCommand.Parameters.Add("@bolProMembCSNM", SqlDbType.Bit)
myParm.Value = IIf(CBool(rblProMembCSNM.SelectedItem.Value) = True, 1, 0)
I've tried everything I used to use with Classic ASP and am stumped now.
Any ideas? I will have to do this for numerous controls on my pages.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Hi, I'm specify the size of the interger dataypes in my code behind files; e.g.
commad.Parameters.Add("@SomeID", SqlDbType.Int, 4)
I know it may seem silly, but I have to ask:
Will specifying ths size (i.e. 4) eventually stop the auto-icnrement of the underlying primary key SomeID in the SQL Server 2005 database?
What restriction, if any, does this place if the next SomeID value is 10000, which is 5 digits? or 999999, which is 6 digits?
Thank you

I have looked far and wide and have not found anything that works to allow me to resolve this issue.
I am moving data from DB2 using the MS OLEDB Provider for DB2. The OLEDB source sees the column of data as DT_TEXT. I setup a destination to SQL Server 2005 and everything looks good until I try and run the package.
I get the error:
[OLE DB Source [277]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft DB2 OLE DB Provider" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

Any suggestions on how I can get the large string data in the varchar column in DB2 into the varchar(max) column in SQL Server 2005?
I am trying to create a store procedure inside of SQL Management Studio console and I kept getting errors. Here's my store procedure.

The data types varchar and varchar are incompatible in the modulo operator.

For the life of me I cannot figure out why SSIS will not convert varchar data. instead of using the table to table method, I wrote a SQL query so that I could transform the datatype ntext to varchar 512 understanding that natively MS is going towards all Unicode applications.
The source fields from Access are int, int, int and varchar(512). The same is true of the destination within SQL Server 2005. the field 'Answer' is the varchar field in question....
I get the following error

DTS used to be a very strong tool but a simple import such as this is causing me extreme grief and wondering of SQL2005 is ready for primetime. FYI SP1 is installed. I am running this from a workstation and not on the server if that makes a difference...
Any help would be appreciated.
I have a table that contains a lot of demographic information. The data is usually small (<20 chars) but ocassionally needs to handle large values (250 chars). Right now its set up for varchar(max) and I don't think I want to do this.
How does varchar(max) store info differently from varchar(250)? Either way doesn't it have to hold the container information? So the word "Crackers" have 8 characters to it and information sayings its 8 characters long in both cases. This meaning its taking up same amount of space?
Also my concern will be running queries off of it, does a varchar(max) choke up queries because the fields cannot be properly analyzed? Is varchar(250) any better?
Should I just go with char(250) and watch my db size explode?
Usually the data that is 250 characters contain a lot of blank space that is removed using a SPROC so its not usually 250 characters for long.
Any insight to this would be appreciated.

Hey,
I was doing some research on how SQL stores data on disk.
MSDN states that when storring a varchar, only the length of the data itself is used plus two bytes.
So, if you store "car" in a VarChar(50) it will take 5 bytes.
But when you store "car" in a VarChar(500) it will also take 5 bytes.
What is the reason users should define the parameter lenght?
Can you use VarChar(8000) whole the time, without any drawback?
Thanks

I have a column of data in a table that has date formatted as '2006-03-26 00:00:00.000'
What T-SQL command that will alter the column so that it is now Varchar '03-26-2006'?I also want to know how to do the opposite... if I have '03-26-2006' via command, how do I convert the column of the table to be datetime from varchar
varchar(MAX)
