I have data saved in nvarchar field in SQL Server and I am displaying it using <= dbReader["my_field"] but even the three or four paragraphs comes as one paragragh and I don't know know where are my line breaks going?
I have to output as one filed name, mailing address, and phone of each company that we do business with. the out put must look as follows: Company Name Store number: ##### Street Address 1 Street Address 2 City, State Zip + 4 Phone: (###) ###-####
Each piece of data is a single field and will have to be concatenated into one. How do I force the line breaks where I need them?
Also each piece of data will be compared to a €œsource€? for validity and I will need to mare the individual data pieces red where €œwrong€?. Like so: VALID MY DATA Company Name Company Name Store number: ##### Store number: ##### Street Address 1 Street Address 1 Street Address 2 Street Address 2 City, State Zip + 4 City, State Zip + 4 Phone: (###) ###-#### Phone: (###) ###-####
Any ideas on how to do this? I have used IIF for conditional formating of field colors in the past, but my expierence is that it changes the WHOLE display field not just piece of data the IIF is wrapped around.
I know there has to be a way to do this, but I've gone brain dead. Thescenario..a varchar field in a table contains a date range (i.e. June 1,2004 - June 15, 2004 or September 1, 2004 - September 30, 2004 or...). Theusers have decided thats a bad way to do this (!) so they want to split thatfield into two new fields. Everything before the space/dash ( -) goes intoa 'FromDate' field, everything after the dash/space goes into the 'ToDate'field. I've played around with STRING commands, but haven't stumbled on ityet. Any help at all would be appreciated! DTS?
The formula for the above calculated fields are as below:
Opening Balance = carried forward balance from Year 2005 Debit = All positive amount Credit = All negative amount Net Change = Total Credit - Total Debit in Period 01 Balance = Total of Net Change + Opening Bal
Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?
SELECT DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY clroot.Ctgry1.Descr ASC) AS Row1, Row_Number() OVER (partition BY clroot.Ctgry1.Descr ORDER BY clroot.Ctgry1.Descr, T1.Descr ASC) AS Row2, left(t1.ID,4)+right(t1.levelid,4) AS ERPID,T1.ID AS Ctgry1ID, clroot.Ctgry1.ID AS ParentID, T1.LevelID, clroot.Ctgry1.Descr AS Category, T1.Descr AS SubCategory,

I am setting up a database that will receive a lot of data from twoseparate telephone centers, the log table will in a short time haveover 1 million lines, and I was wondering if I should use 1 identifyfield or two:case 1:[Id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL[ServerId] [int] NOT NULLcase 2:[Id] [varchar(20)] IDENTITY NOT NULLWhere in case 1 I would just use a combination of Id and ServerId toidentify the line, where in case 2 I would have the Id field a varcharthat would look something like A-000001, A-000002 for server 1 andB-000001, B-000002 for server 2Which solution will be faster when searching for a record when thewill have over 1 million lines?
I have a report with several matrix objects. The data contained in each matrix is simple. One matrix has one column of labels and a column of data. The other has 3 columns of data. Both matrix's only show about 25 rows of data. A variable amount of data is displayed above the matrix's so that sometime the render across a page boundary. Whenever this happens the matrix doesn't render rows down to the bottom of the page. A considerable amount of empty space is left on the page, the completed matrix is displayed on the next page. I'm wondering how to get the matrix to render in this empty space.
This problem only occurs when I view the report on screen, in the Visual Studio "Preview" window, or from the Report Server web site. Tiff, pdf and printed output doesn't contain the extra space.
I've tried adding my matrix to a List and a Rectangle to see of this would fix the problem but it didn't help.
I've check the dimensions and margins or the page and I don't think I have any sizing problems, everything should fit on the page.
I'm struggling with this. I'd like to perform a joined query from two or more tables and take the same field from several rows of one table into seperate fields of a single row in a new table.
I'm developing a report in RS 2000 that uses two datasets. The first dataset provides data to a drill-down report on the top part of the screen and the second small dataset provides some data for additional summary information on the bottom of the screen. I'm getting a runtime error "An unexpected error occurred in Report Processing. The expression referenced a non-existing field in the fields collection." Of course, I've edited every expression I can think of: text boxes, data grid, parameters, filters, drill-down lists... I think I've gone through every object on the report but I can't isolate the bad expression. Can anyone suggest a better way to debug this type of error? It compiles fine, but fails in runtime. thanks.
I want to query TABLE1, row 1 so that I pull back the Names for the values stored in the ID and Other_ID fields so that my results are like: John Bob Number1
The only way around it now is that I store Other_Name in Table1.
I have a table with eight (8) fields, including the primary key (rfpid). Three of the fields are foreign keys, which take their values form lookup tables. They are int fields (pmid, sectorid, officeid). One of the fields in this table is based on putting together the descriptive field in the lookup table for sector (tblsector). The two other fields to be part of this string are the rfpname and rfpid. This creates the following string:
The words rfp, proposals are words that have to be part of string;
the slashes are to also appear.
current_year would be defaulting to datepart = year (2008)
The part that has the last two digits of the current year then the underscore and then the rfpid should be connected by an underscore to the rfpname. I am at a loss and would greatly appreciate any help.
I have a table with two sets of fields, one for PRIMARY Mail Address and the other for ALTERNATE Mail Address. Both sets are five fields long. I will call them PRIMARY & ALTERNATE for this discussion. I want to select the PRIMARY fields if ALTERNATE is either null or zero, and the ALTERNATE fields if data is present.
I have used this syntax but it gives a table with both the PRIMARY & SECONDARY records.
SELECTÂ Â Â TXPRCL, TXALTR, TXANAM FROMÂ Â Â dbo.PCWEBF21 WHEREÂ Â Â (TXALTR > 0) UNION SELECTÂ Â Â TXPRCL, TXTAXP, TXTNAM FROMÂ Â Â dbo.PCWEBF21 WHEREÂ Â Â TXALTR = 0
Would a Select Case work? something like
Select PRIMARY when ALTERNATE = 0, and ALTERNATE when ALTERNATE > 0 or is not null.
I hope someone has already done this, but I have a table with a text column- example ColA, now i want to run a query to select the ColA in this table and combine the results of ColA into a ColB in another table.
Something like - Note: the codes below doesn't work!!
DECLARE @ResultID as int DECLARE @AccID int DECLARE _rows CURSOR FOR SELECT AccID FROM tableA
FETCH NEXT FROM _rows INTO @AccID
WHILE (@@fetch_status <> -1) BEGIN
UPDATE TableB SET Report = Report + (SELECT txtField FROM tableA WHERE AccID = @AccID)
Hi All. I apologise if i have not posted this in the correct Topic before i start. But was uncertain where to post this query. This is my first project in ASP.NET, MS Visual Web Developer 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have relatively little experience, so please bare with me. I have the table below:- Column Name Data Type OrderID intOrderNo intInvoiceNo varchar(50)PurchaseDate smalldatetimeCost moneyInsure money I wish to have a dropdownlist on an aspx page display the OrderNo and the Cost e.g. 12345 £3.50. I have tried the SQL Statement below but that just calculates the addition of both. SELECT OrderNo + ' ' + Cost AS Expr1 FROM [Order] Do i have to convert them both to string/varchar first? If so, how? Thanks for your replies.
I have the following problem that I can use some help with :
I have a table in a linked server that has the date stored in three fields (i.e. day,month and year (I have no idea why)). I would like to concatenate these three fields together into a datetime format in a SQL statement
I have just started to look at SQL and have a theory question that I could apply to a test I want to run. I have some legacy data from a previous project and the database was not designed properly (in my opinion). They have ONE field to capture City and State information. All the data is formatted City, State .
Does SQL have commands that can look at data in a field, strip out info before and info after a comma and then write that to other fields?
So, I would like to normalize this to take the data in a field called CityState and parse it, trim it and then populate two new fields 1) City and 2) State.
the basic pattern is... a user has approvers, and those approvers have approvers as well... i have 4 columns of approvers.. and if my first approver is the manager, then my second approver will be the managers approver and my third approver will be the managers approver's approver and so on..
on my actual page, i have select fields for the app, app2, app3, app4 and i need it so that when i change the very first app, it'll automatically update app2, app3, and app4
any ideas how i would do this? im pretty new to sql but im thinking i would use some type of join?
I have a field where all of the data is 5 characters in length. The last character denotes a status and will always be an F, H, or T. I want to add a new field (which I will do manually) and populate the new field with the last character from the "old" field. Once that is complete, I want to eliminate that 5th character from the old field.
Can someone comment on why joining two tables on CHAR fields of different lengths would generate unexpected results?
I had an issue where I ran an update that used an inner join on two tables. The field I used in the join was char(50) in one table and char(13) in another table. The result gave bad matches. After changing the field types both to varchar(30), the problem was eliminate.

I've a DateTime field in a table and I want to separate it into two fields in an SQL Server 2005 view one for Date and the other for Time so What is the function I can use to do this process?
Hello all,I'm at a loss on how to do this. We're using MS SQL 2000 Server and Ihave a list of fields I need to find the first and last entry for.Here's an example of the table:Number - VarChar(10)Jan - IntFeb - IntMar - IntApr - IntMay - IntJune - IntANd it'll look something like this:NumberJanFebMarAprMayJun12322001901922012032054432433322 4565423754694665And I need to create a table with this:NumberFirstLastDifference123220020554432433456235423754665-89I'm not sure if this'll copy over correctly, but I have gaps in thedata so I can't just say Jun-Jan, but I need tofind the first fieldwith data and last field with data, then find the difference of these.Suggestions? Is there a loop or something I can do in TSQL that'll dothis? I'd like to do this in Query Analyzer since it's just a one-timereport. Thanks --Alex
I want to combine two of my fields somewhat like when you combine to char fields and concatenate them. But these two fields are int. How do i do that? Here's my query right now:
Code Block SELECT AutoID, CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Year )+ CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Period_Code) as MarsId FROM NavisionReplication.dbo.Tbl_Mars_Calender ORDER BY Mars_Calender_Year DESC
