Hi All,
I have a job coming up which involves me creating a vacancy system for our website.
I (think) I'll only need one table:
ID (PK)
JobTitle
JobLocation
Salary
Hours
JobDescription
ValidFrom (Date/Time)
ValidTo (Date/Time)
I'll display this data using a C#.Net repeater but I was wondering how I can automatically strip the page of the jobs that have gone past their expiry date? Is is straightforward to achieve?
Thanks in advance,
Brett
SQL Server 2005 allows to use the EncryptByCert function to encrypt a Column, for example in an Instead-of Insert Trigger, and to use a DecryptByCert function to decrypt a Column, for example in a View.
This is indeed good news, but I have a simple :confused: question. To create a Certificate using the CREATE CERTIFICATE you have to give an EXPIRY DATE, or it will default to an expriry date of 1 year. How can one read the encrypted Column after the certificate has expired ?
Is there a way to renew a certificate without having to first decrypt all the fields and export them ?
I have a Column CCExp Varchar(7) that stores data like below
NULL
'01/15'
'02/15'
'03/15'
'04/15'
'05/15'
[Code] ...
I am trying to get all expired cards which means, I am trying to get all cards which are behind sept 2015..like when I query I would like to get 8/15 and so on expired cards I am able to get the year , but with the below query I am getting all months less then 9 but i am missing 10,11,12 months cards values also I am having Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '#N' to data type int.
SELECT CustomerBillingInfoID ,
CCExp
FROM CustomerBillingInfo
WHERE LEFT( CCExp, 2) < MONTH(GETDATE())
AND RIGHT( CCExp, 2) <= RIGHT(YEAR(GETDATE()), 2)
and CCExp NOT LIKE '#%'
and CCExp not like 'NULL'
RETAINDAYS option in BACKUP command.
SqlServer2000 (standard) on Win xp server.
Old backups are not being removed from backup sets.
I've created logical dumpdevices which maps to a physical file on disk - using sp_adddumpdevice. Regular, scheduled backups are successfully written to the backup sets (Complete, differential & Tlog) - This works fine and I can restore from them OK.
I've set the RETAINDAYS option of BACKUP command to keep backups for varying periods (eg full = 8 days, diff = 2 days, and Tlog = 1 day).
When the backups are viewed by 'drilling down' thru >Backup > open backupdevice > view contents.... all previous backups are still available even though their expiry date has passed.
The backup set files (dumpdevice files) are getting inexorably bigger and will eventually fill the available disks !
I don't want to delete or overwrite the entire contents of the backup set - just those backups more than 8 days old.
I've run sp_configure 'media_retention' 1 RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
but the old backups are still there.
dbs are getting ever bigger (high activity OLTP system) currently 2 production dbs totaling 50 GB.
Is this a bug? - ie. the option to set a retention period even though I'm writing to a logical 'dump device' rather than a normal *.BAK / *.TRN file?
or Am I doing something wrong?
HELP.

Hi all,
The company that I work for has an internet application that has been running in our client's environment for 2 years.
The SQL box is a quad Xeon 750 with 4 gig of ram and over 50gig of disk. This box has 4 databases that are used for the application. The primary database is about 1.5gig in size (.mdf file) the others are relatively small.
The box is queried from a separate windows 2000 server box with our COM based application running under IIS.
The boxes are located on the same switched LAN.
Up until recently the application has been running fine, but all of a sudden we have had masses of database time outs and the processor utilisation is always 80-100. In turn these time outs crash IIS eventually.
I Understand all of the ideas about increasing the timeout in a command object, etc.
I have monitored blocking on the SQL server and over a 30 minute period of live usage I saw 1 block and 0 deadlocks.
In addition to the above often our application gets an imediate time out error, hence after no time.
We have also monitored the network bandwidth between the two boxes and they only use about 30% on average of available bandwidth.
My 1st question is - Does SQL give a time out error (hence refuses connections) if it is running at 100% and cannot handle any more load??
My 2nd question is, In other peoples experience is the box we are using powerful enough.
My 3rd question is, Can the network have an effect on the time outs even though there is plenty of bandwidth.
Thank you in advance for your time in reading this and I appreciate any input that you may have.

Hi,

WHERE
DateDiff(day, StartDate, getDate())<=0

i wonder why it can's show the result!!! is the code correct?
Hi,
My table has more columns than this but I will just use the ones here tht are important.
I have two columns in a table these are "ExpiryDate" and "Archived".
When the row is created the "Archived" field will be null but the user will have entered a expiry date. When this date is reached I would like the "Archived" data to change to "1". Is this possible? Would I have to do it through some kind of script or can I set the database to do this automatically?
Thank you, Mark
Consider the following tableCustomercustId char(10)accountExpiryDate datetimeaccountStatus bitNow, I want to update the accountStatus to False as soon as thecurrent date becomes accountExpiryDate.I think it can be done using "SQL Agent" but my webhost doesnt provideme access to that. I have access only to the Query Analyzer.ThanksShane

We are using anonymous HTTPS merge replication.
The windows password used for the client subscriber expired on the publisher.
I reset it on the publisher - but SQL still seems to think that it is not expired - I get the following message in the event log of the publisher running SQL Server 2005
Login failed for user 'XYZ'. Reason: The password of the account has expired. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
Any ideas ?

Disable logins on access expiry date(Not windows password expiry). we grant access to users on databases only for 60 days. So access is only valid for 60 days. Then the user should again request access to the database going thru security clearance. Thn the DBA's enable the login. Maintaining all these logins of users manually is causing more confusion.
As we know, we dont have any inbuilt functionality to automatically disable logins in SQL Server.
I have a table where the logins and expirydate were recorded in a DB.
Using this table and SQL Server agent. Can i achieve this process automated ?
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[LoginsExpiry](
[LoginName] [varchar](50) NULL,
[ExpiryDate] [date] NULL,
[Roles] [varchar](500)
) ON [PRIMARY]

I want to create the most effective way (google) to have content displayed on a web page.
Currently, we are updating to SQL and populating to web via calling SQL statements hardcoded to page. I want to know if this is ok to do, or should we be reading from a static XML file that is updated?
I think the XML is the way to go being that i may have answered my own question, but i was curious to what the experts on asp.net had to say.
Thanks,Nick
an outside developer has sent us a mdf file that contains the need updates to a database.

Hi everyone,
I'm just using TEXTBOX control to save data into my DB. My question is, if I have multiple lines of sentences, it does not store as what it looks like. For example;
Hello, Mike
It stores into the database as "Hello, Mike" and if I read from the database, it does not have seperate lines and shows it like this;
Hello, Mike
How can I store the contents into database and make the contents as original? (Sorry for the poor English, but I hope you understand it.)
HiI have developed a sql procedure for updating some xml content using SQL 2005 xQuery features.For example:Declare @xmlContent = '<books><book name="asp"/>< book name = "sql"/></books>'--Now I want to add attribute "book_id" to the xml content.SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"1" } into (/books/book[@name="asp"])[1] ')SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"2" } into (/books/book[@name="sql"])[1] ')SELECT @xmlContent--OUTPUT will be<books><book name="asp" book_id="1"/><book name="sql" book_id="2"/></books>QUESTIONQ1. Do we have any extension or plugin such that this SQl 2005 xquery feature can be incorporated in SQL 2000?Q2. If the answer for Q1. is no (as I expect), then do we have any TSQL feature in SQL 2000 for modifying xml content?I found all examples in SQl 2000 related with "openxml" function which performs the select kind of operations only. Like selecting data in XML format OR converting xml data in to tabular format. But I couldn't find any xml modification TSQL in SQl 2000 which can add element/attributes or change values.one workaround could be to consider xml content as string and use string functions to modify the content.But is there any more sensible approach available in SQL 2000?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOkay, moving to developing a small site that will be storing articles - that is a site largely consisting of html marked up articles with images. We already have an SQL Server so it is becoming the back-end.
So, since I'm not an SQL Server expert, some general advice on this would be appreciated? The articles, as I say in HTML (largely just markup for titles, and general text) would be stored in the DB? As Text datatypes?
How about the images...on disk or in SQL?
hi everybody,
The problem is, I have a table with one column of varchar(8000) datatype. It has got 1000's of records. Through Query Analyzer, I am not able to view my records after 257 columns in my table, even I increased my textsize by using 'set textsize' command.
Any other setting is available to correct this. Any help is appreciated.
thanks,

I have a particular production database that on a few recent occasions has suddenly had one of it's tables empty of content. Now there are no jobs or triggers in place neither is any stored procedures that could perform a delete or alter table operation in place. The permissions have been set not to allow this either. The datatype is text only. What is intriguing is the QA server has an exact mirror and this dosen't happen. Has anyone come across this sort of phenomenon?

This includes demos, tutorials, whitepapers, Webcasts, Starter Kits, and any other type of content you could imagine. So this is a great chance to TELL US WHAT YOU WANT! We’ll integrate your feedback and make sure that we try and address the most requested areas of content. Please be as specific as you can.

I need to flip the information around so that it can be exported into a CSV file for an automated email notification program to notify them their items are in and having it in first, last, MI format is much more professional.
I've been playing with charindex and stuff routines and am spinning my wheels. Is there a canned routine for something like this - this must have been done a hundreed times out there in SQL somewhere (or it's so easy to do that everyone (but me) just cranks it from scratch).
Thanks in advance for your help.

Our Business partners request me to read the field names from a SQL table dynamically so that my SSIS package will not get impacted if Web Service hosts make a change.
Is there a way to evaluate a string at runtime that contains a field name ?

Hi Guys,
What approach should I use to copy content of a text file. Is BCP capable of doing this? How about SSIS?
Example of the text file's content:
Date, "20060101"
ST_Code, "101"
A_Code, P_Code, T_Code, amount, price
"0001", "1111", "0101", 550, 230
"0002", "1111", "0102", 345, 122
"2001", 0212", 0930", 410, 90
In the example above, I just want to copy the rows Date, "20060101" and ST_Code, "101" into a table.
Regards,
Lars
