I have a problem with alot of my SPs. All compile correctly but cause erroneous data due to IF statements begin ignored due to
characters (see below).
Example SP...
-- Opened within last 12 Months
IF @NEWACCIND = 1
BEGIN
EXECUTE usp_DFDX03_D0150_A4 @COSTALL OUTPUT
END
-- Accounts in Arrears in Current Quarter
Should look like ...
-- Opened within last 12 Months
IF @NEWACCIND = 1
BEGIN
EXECUTE usp_DFDX03_D0150_A4 @COSTALL OUTPUT
END
-- Accounts in Arrears in Current Quarter
I need to find all SPs with double
instance and manually replace. There are hundreds of SPs in total. I have tried
SELECTCOLID, ID
FROMSYSCOMMENTS
WHERECHARINDEX (CONVERT (VARCHAR(3), CHAR(13)+CHAR(13)), TEXT) > 0
but this also returns SPs containing 2 consecutive blank lines as well (which there are alot of due to formatting of T-SQL).
Really I need to distuinguish between
and new line which both appear to be CHAR(13)
I want to copy the data from A_tabel to B_table. The table structures are different. Before writing into B_Table I need to check some conditions based the input form A_table.
I think, I am confusing. I need a stored procedure.
I've got one SQL Server 7.0 table with a "Decsciption" Column of length 4000. The values in this column contains "End of Line" ASCII Character. The ASCII Value of this character is 10. I'm not able to remove this ASCII Character. I tried by using REPLACE function. But i could not remove that character.
I have an issue where I am storing various international characters in nvarchar columns, but need to branch the data at one point of processing so that ASCII characters are run through an additional cleansing process and all non-ASCII characters are set aside.
Is there a way to identify which nvarchar values are within the ASCII range and can be converted to varchar without corruption? Also, the strings may contain a mix of english and international character sets, so the entire string must be checked and not just the first character.
I have a stored procedure with a input parameter ( xml block).
sp: spGetAddr @xmlText
the style of parameter @xmlText looks like
<Param RestricBy="UserName IN ('Mayá', 'Bob')"/>
If I use non-basic ASCII character, just like 'á' in the parameter, the execution fails and I get 'The error description is 'An invalid character was found in text content.''
But this kind of special characters should be allowed in the name column of the database table.
If I use the htlm code 'á" to replace 'á' in the parameter, then the execution of the stored procedure is fine. but how can I change all of the possible sepcial characters?
If somebody knows how to handle this issue, please help me. I'm pre-appreciated for all the idea and suggestion!
Hello everyone, trying to use stored procedure for my datagrid. in there i have the parameter that i would like to combine with wild character to retrieve some data..Does not work. Please help to come up with right syntax... here is the code: SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, Address, City, Customer_ID, Company_Name, State, ZIP, Phone_Number_1, Phone_Number_2, Email FROM v2_Customers WHERE (City = @search_text) OR (First_Name = @search_text) OR (Last_Name LIKE '%'+@search_text) OR (Address = @search_text)
Hi, I have a clr stored procedure that takes in 2 parameters, input xml and a query name. The stored procedure transforms the xml with a the xslt for the given query name (stored in a database). I am currently using and output parameter that is of type NVarChar(4000) to retrieve the xml in .net. This all works fine unless the xml that is being transformed is greater than 4000 characters which will happen. Are there any ways of returning a string/xml greater than 4000 characters (in the region of 60-70k characters).
Hi all,I have a internet page written in asp to submit into authorscurriculum vitae publications (title, author, year, etc.).If the author submit less than 8000 characters it functions OK, but Ifthe author try's to submit more than 8000 characters the asp page doesnot return an error but the text is not saved in the database or,sometimes, it returned a "Typ mismatch" error.Here is the sp:---------------------------------------------------------------------CREATE PROCEDURE sp_CV_publications(@formCommandnvarchar(255)='process',@id numeric=null,@id_personint=null,@typPubID tinyint= NULL,@publicationstext=null)ASif @formCommand='process'beginINSERT INTO CV_publications(idperson,typPubID,publications)VALUES (@id_person@typPubID,@publications);select 1 as status, @@IDENTITY AS insertedID, * FROMCV_publications WHERE id=@@IDENTITYend----------------------------------------------------------------------------The server is running IIS5 and SqlServer 2000Any ideas ???
In my application I must store over 16000 character in a sql table field . When I split into more than 1 field it gives "unclosed quotation mark" message. How can I store over 16000 characters to sql table field (only one field) with language specific characters?
I would like SQL Server 2000 to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters, but only within a single stored procedure. Also, at the end of the sp, I want the original collation to be restored. How will I implement this in my sp?
I m working on MS SQL Server 2000. I am trying to pass a list of numbers to a stored procedure to be used with 'IN()' statement.
I was doing something like..
Create Procedure proc
(
@Items varchar(100) --- List of numbers ) AS Begin
Declare @SQL varchar(8000) Set @SQL = ' Select Query...... Where products IN (' + @items + ') ' ' Exec (@SQL)
This stored procedure is working fine, but when i m adding more required stuff to that, the size exceeds 8000, & it gives the error "Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals add, type equals text."
Problem about pass a big string (over 8000 characters) to a variable nvarchar(max) in stored procedure in SQL 2005! I know that SQL 2005 define a new field nvarchar(max) which can stored 2G size string. I have made a stored procedure Hellocw_ImportBookmark, but when I pass a big string to @Insertcontent , the stored procedure can't be launch! why? create procedure Hellocw_ImportBookmark @userId varchar(80), @FolderId varchar(80), @Insertcontent nvarchar(max) as declare @contentsql nvarchar(max); set @contentsql=N'update cw_bookmark set Bookmark.modify(''declare namespace x="http://www.hellocw.com/onlinebookmark"; insert '+ @Insertcontent+' as last into (//x:Folder[@Id="'+@FolderId+'"])[1]'') where userId='''+@userID+''''; exec sp_executesql @contentsql;
as declare @contentsql nvarchar(max); set @contentsql=N'update cw_bookmark set Bookmark.modify(''declare namespace x="http://www.hellocw.com/onlinebookmark"; insert '+ @Insertcontent+' as last into (//x:Folder[@Id="'+@FolderId+'"])[1]'') where userId='''+@userID+''''; exec sp_executesql @contentsql;
Hi everybody, I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?
All, I have to automatically grap a dbf or ascii file from my hard drive and then insert that into an already existing database table. Does anyone know how to do this? The only thing I can find is to do it manually from enterprise manager, but I need to automate this.Thanks in advance!
I’m new to T-sql and need help understanding the CHAR() and ASCII functions. I tried to run these commands to better understand them but I get the same results each time. Here is the query with the char command
USE Northwind SELECT FirstName + ' ' + LastName, + CHAR(13) + Address, + CHAR(13) + City, + Region FROM Employees WHERE EmployeeID = 1
Nancy Davolio 507 - 20th Ave. E. Apt. 2A Seattle WA
(1 row(s) affected)
Here is the same command without the char function.
USE Northwind SELECT FirstName + ' ' + LastName, + address, + city, + region from employees where employeeID = 1
address city region ------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------- --------------- Nancy Davolio 507 - 20th Ave. E. Apt. 2A Seattle WA
(1 row(s) affected)
As you can see I get the same results back except for the column names being displayed.
I have an file I FTP onto the server using a FTP task in my DTS package. The problem I'm having is the FTP task downloads using binary format, whereas I need it to download using ascii format. Binary is causing characters in the file to change, and my import is failing.
Hi I am importing data from mainframe using DTS the problem is that I am getting some COMP fields from the mainframe these are compressed data fields that are used to reduce storage space on the main frame. Can some one please help me understand how we can use DTS to solve this problem that is decompress it before transferring to table in SQL server. any code in scripting language to help decompress this datatype will be really appreciated.
Dear all, I've a different problem while writing some script.

i want condition like if item is starting with number then totalcustclass whcih is count(*) remain same giving correct results...but if item startign with ascii character then totalcustclass r getting double so i have to /2..
i want results:

can anyone tell me what condition will come in case?
I have data that comes from a legacy system. I can obtain the data in anASCII format.

I need to generate Ascii 7 bit flat file, based on data in db, using integration services, FTP task. Currently i am generating file with ansi-latin and then using the script task converting it to the ascii 7. File looks to be generated properly. But when the target system reads this, they complain that the file has junk charecters some thing like this. when i open it after generating the file it looks fine to me in DOS also. I dont know what is the target system and what OS is used by them. what cud be the issue for these junk charecters and is it possible that a Ascii 7 file generated by windows doesnt work in other OS? If the method i am doing to generate the ascii 7 is not currect then what is the best method for this?
PS: earlier i had generated a flat file using data export from Excel & that worked in the target system well. is there any difference in the file encoding generated by excel and integration services?
I am working on a project that will be mimicking an existing interface that we have with one our our clients. That interface today sends EBCDIC packed fields. We do not want to introduce changes to the external clients interface file when we rebuild it in SQL 2005 Integration Services and I need to find out how I can take ASCII data and convert it to the host (mainframe) representation, which is what we currently provide to our external client using Integration Services.
Has anyone had to do this? If so, can I accomplish it natively with SSIS, or do I need to look to a third party vendor for a component?
I am glad if someone help me. My question is like belo:
i have ascii data in one column name(failcode), i want to use it to link with other table which is the data type in integer. so i have to convert it into integer type.
May i know how to write in query to convert ascii to int in Sequence Server(Microsoft SQL Server 7.0)?
Thought I would share this since it caused me so much grief.
In some mainframe systems, some dates are stored as the string "00000000". In my SSIS package, I was trying to anticipate for this string, as well as any other combination of zeros (e.g., "000", "0000", etc), since I had already seen lots of dirty data in the flat file (like non-printing characters, etc).
So, what I tried to do was perform an integer conversion on the string and test if it was the equivalent of the numerical value zero:
Code Snippet
(DT_STR)[ColumnName] == 0 ? .... Now, for some reason, that doesn't work, even though a similar operation in SQL does work:
Code Snippet
SELECT TOP 1 ISNUMERIC('00000000') FROM tableName
In the end, I had to resort to testing for a match on the literal string "00000000" and hope that no other dates came in as "000" or other variation. Fortunately, this has been true so far.
However, the moral of the story is, converting a series of zeros into a numeric zero, and testing against that, does not seem to work. I don't have a good explanation for why that is, but I would guess it has something to do with the limitation of the conversion function.
