Auto Correction When Inserting Or Updating Columns By Client
Mar 18, 2008
Hi Gnite everyone, i once again need help with a T-SQL syntax for Auto Correction for insert and update when client enters the wrong format, i;e, creating a SSN Data type and a User Defined Procedure that auto corrects input format i;e,
user inserts into table authors of the pubs DB 525-477845 column au_id that executes auto correction so user doesn't have to put in dashes for SSN format. Please help me with this syntax .
I am very new to SQL Server 2005. I have created a package to load data from a flat delimited file to a database table. The initial load has worked. However, in the future, I will have flat files used to update the table. Some of the records will need to be inserted and some will need to update existing rows. I am trying to do this from SSIS. However, I am very lost as to how to do this.
I would like to create an application that displays the status of my machines almost real-time (Run, Down, or idle etc). And I'm wondering what is the common method to accomplish this? Do you tell the application to keep going out and getting the status of the machines at a specific interval? or Do you have a way for the application to just 'listen' if a status update is available for the specific machines? If so, how? I only have a 'Read' access to the database. Also, other applications update the database (and I don't have access to those applications.) My application will be in VB.NET. Thanks for any leads.
We currently have SQL Server 6.5 installed on 2 servers and did not specify to automatically start the mail client. When I display the Server Configuration/Options screen in Enterprise Manager, the Auto Start Mail Client check box option is grayed out. How can I change these servers to automatically start the mail client at startup?
I have a textbox that is receiving a date in the format mm/dd/yyyy. The field in the database is VarChar size 10. I purposely don't want to use the DateTime data type for various reasons. When I extract the text from that textbox: Example:4/11/2005 I do my INSERT. When I look in the database at that field, it shows up like:April 11, 2005 12 The database's field is VarChar! How/why is it doing automatic DateTime formatting?
Is it possible to get SQL Server to automatically update the table/field names in your stored procedures when changing those table/field names in the database?
hi there, i am new to sql server database.i am doing small projects right now using asp.net and sql to create webpages (very basic webpages) My problem is:
Problem :
i have two tables .....table 1 and table 2.
Table 1 has following fields: studentid,student name,student address.
Table 2 has following fields:studentid and course . table1 student id is the primary key refrencing table 2 student id. Now i delete a record in table 1 which will in turn also get deleted in table 2 . so for eg if i have three records 1 ,2 and 3 ....then i delete 2 in table 1 ...i will have 1 and 3 in both table 1 and table 2....now i want 3 to become 2 in both table 1 and table 2...so that i dont have empty space between two student id's 1 and 3. so this is my problem....if any one can help me out with suggestions please do.
I have a (1) date field and (2) an auto-incrementing ID field that always throw me errors when I'm doing a programmatic insert.
(1) After doing many searches on the subject, I don't think I'm using the correct syntax for the date and can't find any suggestion that works. Would appreciate your knowledge on correct SQL syntax for inserting a "today's date" field.
(2) I'm using the following code to create a new auto-incrementing ID for each record but it seems that there should be a smoother method to force the field's value to auto-increment. Any ideas?

Does anybody have a sample SQL script that will select table A and compare it to table B. If a row exists in both table A and table B, it will update the columns in table B with the columns in table A. If the row does not exist in table B, it will insert a row in table B using the row in table A. Is this possible?
I have an asp.net project that displays a timesheet based on a fortnightly system.
It has a Y and X axis, i.e. Sun-Mon, Sun-Mon across the top and Categories of hour types accross the Y axis, i.e. Holidays, Overtime, Maintenance.
I was using a datagrid to gather the rows, but I need to have the whole grid in edit mode which is something that requires more coding. So I have swapped to a datalist.
It will take me 240 fields to store all the data in their corresponding fields. So I basically need to know if there is an easier way to store two dimensional array type data into an SQL table using a minimum of fields.
SQLNewbie writes "I have a table 'ImportedListings' that is populated with data external to the database. This table is only used to hold the data until I can move it to the permanent table 'Listings' at which point 'ImportedListings' gets truncated to nothing. Both tables contain almost identical data and structure. There is a listing ID column available for joins.
Basically I need to compare each row in ImportedListing and if it already exists in Listing, UPDATE Listing with the new info. If the row in ImportedListing doesn't exist in Listing, I need to INSERT it.
Physically deleting rows from the listings table is not an option. Do you have any ideas on how I can do this? I initially tried using a temp table to hold the matching listing id's but I could not get figure out the update statement with this scenario.
Thanks for any help! I have been trying to hammer this out all night(I just started programming tsql)"
i am creating a database driven website and i am using a sql database. I have a database called company with fields in it to do with a company, I have created a company.cs file which sets the variables, properties and methods and so on. These work fine. I have also stored procedures and they are right as far as i know. i also have coding behind the buttons of my page when i try and update or insert to the database. I am having the problem of when i enter data into the text boxes and click update, nothing gets inserted or updated and whats worst of all no error message appears. The table is used for storing profile data about a user, when a user logs on they enter their profile data, if i manually enter this data and input the username of a user into the username field within the database then the data appears fine in the textboxes of the update info page but the data will not insert or update. i have checked all the little things and i am stressing out cos i am running out of time and cannot find the problem...........please could someone help me!!!!! thanks

Hi, I'm trying to store large strings to a database, so am using thetext field type (LongText). I have used this before when storing thehtml of a webpage, and was able to store more than 255 characters byusing just a normal update sql statement. Now I'm trying to store thebody of research papers, and must be doing something different, as Ican only store 255 characters.Can someone explain why SQL Server doesn't like what I am doing -should I be using the WriteText / UpdateText function? If so, pleaseexplain by example how I would do that, and why doing that works.Thanks so much,Iain
I have created a single Data Flow Task that reads a set of records from a source table and then makes determinations whether to insert, update or delete from a destination table. The data is basically being copied from one database to another with a small amount of data manipulation and lookups. The problem seems to be that when running the task, even a small amount of records read from the source table seem to take a long time for the task to finish. I feed the records into a Script Component (the brains) that sorts the records to three separate outputs. I use OLE DB Commands to perform the DELETE and UPDATE and an OLE DB Destination for INSERT. I thought that by using three separate database connections would help, but it just appears to be locked while trying to perform these commands against the same table.
Is there a way to control or route these three record sets in such a way as to perform them sequentially?
I know it's a bit of a simple question for some of you, but I'm just learning SSIS (but I like it!).
I want to display a list of member after filtering two condition...
1) Select MID from TableMember where AID value EQUAL to Dropdownlist.value 2) Select MID from TableStatus where AID NOT EQUAL to Label.Text
I try something like this... is not working... Can anyone correct the statement for me....
"Select * from VIEW1 where MID in (Select MID from TableMember where Aid='" & Ddl1.SelectedItem.Value & "') and MID not in(select Mid from TableStatus where Aid <>'" & Label.Text & "')"
I am using the following query to calculate date differences:select ..........DATEDIFF(d, recruitment_advertising.advertising_date, career_details.RTS_Email AS Datetime) AS Ad_to_RTS_days FROM .....I have stored all my dates as NVARCHAR because of the issues with localization.If the value is an empty String my output is eg: -38700. which is way off and incorrect. Some of the values in my table are NULL and they produce the correct result.Is there a T-SQL statement to replace empy Strings with the NULL value in my tables.I'd like to use it as a trigger when inserting or updating to convert empty strings to NULLbefore the values are inserted.Thanks guys.
Hello.I've read many topics about this problem but i couldn't figure it out.I use form where user must insert 2 dates using texboxes.-One is required and other is optional.Sql 2000 is inserting either '20061105' or '2006.11.05' on insert update but select query returns 05.11.2006 on my report. Question 1.How do I insert or update dates from my form where date is entered dd.mm.yyyy to sql 2000 table?question 2. What to do if user left optional texbox date empty.I'm using SP and function with arguments (byval texbox1.text as date, byval texbox2.text as date)and parameters @date1, sqldbtype date =texbox1.text
We've installed the Oracle provider for OLE DB on SQL Server 2005, which has the default collation (SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS), and we've created a linked server for the Oracle 9.2.0.5 database, which has AL32UTF8 as the database character set. We can successfully insert strings into VARCHAR2 columns on Oracle from SQL Server via EXEC SP_EXECUTESQL('INSERT OPENQUERY(...) VALUES(...)') -- as long as the strings (whether selected from NVARCHAR columns on SQL Server or specified as literals with the N prefix during testing) only contain Windows-1252 characters.
If the SQL statement contains a character above U+00FF, the string on the Oracle side is incorrectly/doubly encoded; there are nearly (but not exactly) 4 bytes per character instead of the 1 or 2 you'd expect from ASCII/Latin-1 characters encoded as UTF-8.
We've tried reconfiguring the linked server: collation compatible = false, use remote collation = true, and collation name = Latin1_General_BIN2. But that had no effect.
Hi, I have this following procedure and I am sure on how to convert a part of the procedure. Can anyone pls help.... The function is created successfully. I have problem in calling that function n the procedure..Some syntax error... I think, the problem is here...

Inside a single transaction I'm inserting/updating multiple records into multiple tables, in this order: table 1 record 1 table 2 record 1 table 3 record 1 table 1 record 2 table 2 record 1 table 1 record 3 table 2 record 3 table 3 record 3
Now I'm getting an unspecified error on a certain table:
Indicates a data modification, such as an insert, an update, or a deletion. Ensures that multiple updates cannot be made to the same resource at the same time. (I assume that multiple updates within the SAME transaction can be made, only multiple updates from different transaction cannot be made, right?) I cannot find any reference to this error message and don't know what the numbers mean. Maybe it relates to data that can be found in the sys.lock_information table like explained here, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172932.aspx, but I'm not sure.
Furthermore, the sys.lock_information table is empty. I haven't been able to reproduce the problem myself. I only received an error log and the database to investigate it.
So, does anybody have an idea what this error message means and what I can do to troubleshoot this?

Hi, Can we able to auto generate columns in sql server 2000? I have a tabe with two fields No and Name. I need to auto generate no for each name i am going to enter. Can any give me a solution for this? If so i will be thankful to u.
we have tables with many image columns. We fill these image columns via ODBC and SQLPutData as described in MSDN etc (using SQL_LEN_DATA_AT_EXEC(...), calling SQLParamData and sending the data in chunks of 4096 bytes when receiving SQL_NEED_DATA).
The SQLPutData call fails under the following conditions with sqlstate 08S01
- The database resides on SQL Server 2000 - The driver is SQL Native Client - The table consists e.g. of one Identity column (key column) and nine image columns - The data to be inserted are nine blocks of data with the following byte size:
1: 6781262 2: 119454
3: 269 4: 7611
5: 120054
6: 269
7: 8172
8: 120054
9: 269 The content of the data does not matter, (it happens also if only zero bytes are written), nor does the data origin (file or memory).
All data blocks including no 7 are inserted. If the first chunk of data block 8 should be written with SQLPutData the function fails and the connection is broken. There are errors such as "broken pipe" or "I/O error" depending on the used network protocol.
If data no 7 consists of 8173 bytes instead of 8172 all works again. (Changing the 4096 chunk size length does not help)
Has anybody encountered this or a similar phenomenon?
Hi All,First of all its very very urgent. Secondly I am not an expert. Now here is my problem.I want to loop through my html files and want to save the data in my table column. here is the Code which need correction.CODE:USE [AdventureWorks]DECLARE @cmd varchar(1000);DECLARE @FileName varchar(100);DECLARE @FilePath varchar(100);SET @FileName = 'C: est'+@FilePath+'html';SET @cmd = 'INSERT INTO myTable(FileName, FileType, Document)' + 'SELECT ' + @FilePath + ', FileType, * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK @FileName, SINGLE_CLOB) AS Document'EXEC (@cmd);Select * from myTableJust for practice I am using Adventureworks db. I am using SQL Express 2005.My html files are named something like this:AC0234.htmlDB9803.htmlCG4571.htmlI cannot change my file names.Thanks in advance.Regards;

I have a large table with many columns that have rows with N/A or null values, which are gotten from a bulk insert.
In order to format the data properly, we need to convert the data from N/A or null to 0, as the original values come from the supplier.
In my code the best way to achieve this is running multiple queries as
update csv_testing set testing5 = 0 where testing5 like'%N/A%' update csv_testing set testing6 = 0 where testing6 like'%N/A%' update csv_testing set testing7 = 0 where testing7 like'%N/A%' update csv_testing set testing9 = 0 where testing9 like'%N/A%'
