Column Data Truncation , How To Identify Column?
Sep 3, 2007
Hi There
This one has bothered me ever since sql server 2000.
When you do an insert into a table with literally hundreds of char or varchar columns and you get the error that the insert failed due to data loss/truncation on a column.
Is there anyway in 2005 to actually find out what column ? Since there are hundreds is is literally a long process of going though each column 1 by 1 manually.
The database engine surely MUST know what column this occurred on so why can it not tell you which column the truncation occurred on ?
Can this be done in 2005 if not will this information be available in 2008 ?
Thanx

I am task with identifying the source database name, id, and server name for each staging table that I create. I need to add this to a derived column on all staging tables created from merging same tables on different servers together.
When doing a Merge Join, there is no way to identify the source of data so I would like to see if data came from one database more than the other servers or if their are duplicates across servers.
The thing that bugs me about SSIS Data Flow task is there is no way to do an easy Execute SQL Task after I select my ADO.NET Source to get this information because my connection string is dynamic and there is no way of know which data source is being picked up at runtime.
For Example I have Products table on Server 1 and 2:
Server 2 has more Products and would like to join the two together to create a staging table.
I want see the following:
Product ID, Product Name, Qty, Src_DB_ID, Src_DB_Name, Src_Server_Name
1 IPAD 1000 2, MyDB1, Server1
100 ASUS Pad 40 1, YourDB, Server2
get database name and server name in DATA FLOW only (without using a for each in Control Flow)

When I use the AVG Function on an integer column, the result is truncated
Example:
Select AVG(field1) from table1
Field1 is an int field and has 4 rows with the values 114,115,115 and 115. This will return 114.
I can get the correct result by using the following SELECT:
SELECT CAST(AVG(CAST (field1 as decimal(18,1)))+ .5 as int) from table1
Am I missing something here? Is there an simpler way to do this?
Any help will be appreciated.

Okay, I now have some dynamic SQL working. This is the SQL statement I have for a report in Reporting Services:
DECLARE @SQL nvarchar(4000)
SET @SQL=(SELECT AdHocSQL
FROM RptValueTypeMap
WHERE RptValueTypeMap.SectionCd in ('ITEM0010'))
EXECUTE (@SQL)
We have a table set up that actually holds different SQL statements based on the report items. This is reading the SQL statement from AdHocSQL for the Report item #0010 and it is returning the results. However, it does return the correct value, but under (No Column Name). I have tried to incorporate an "AS", but I get errors when I try this.
I am familiar, but new to SQL statements and I would like this to return a field so I can use this value in the report. What do I need to do?
Thanks for the information.

Hi, I want to know how to remove identify property from a column without recreating the whole table...
When I do it in Enterprise Manager, it actually drop and recreate the table
in background. I just like to know if there is other way without recreating the tables. Thanks!

I have two columns, one column has a document ID and a given document can have many pages. The second column has the pages. Now I want to find out when the page number is broken. For example, if doc ID 1 has 3 rows and each of the three has 1,2,3 and then the fourth row has document 1 but the value jumps from 3 to 7 and then goes to 8,9,10 and then jumps again and starts from 17, i want to have the ranges identified.
DocID Page NumberÂ
1 Â Â 1
1 2
1 3
1 7
1 8
1 9
1 10
1 17
1 18
1Â 19
1 Â Â 20
The result should look like :
DocID Page NumberÂ
1 Â 1-3
1 Â Â 7-10
1 Â 17-20

Hi,
I have a data file that has numeric data that looks like:
1.123456
And this column is defined as a DT_NUMERIC(18.6) in the flat file conn mgr.
As an experiment, I changed the destination column to a NUMERIC(18,0) - hoping that this would throw a truncation error at the flat file task level (where I have Truncation on all columns set to "fail component").
Not a peep. It loaded the data into the table, chopping off the 6 digits after the decimal point.
You would THINK that this would cause an error, but no. Why is this? The flat file task complains about all kinds of things, but this is such a gross error, you would think it would catch it!
Thanks

I have a table with Million plus records. Due to Running Totals article, I have been able to calculate the Trial_Balance for all months.
Now I am trying to provide a Beginning Balance for all months and the Logic is the Beginning Balance of July would be the Trial_Balance of June. I need to be able to do this for multiple account types. So the two datasets that need to be included in logic is actindx and Calendar_Month.
For actindx of 2 and Calendar_Month of 2014-01-01The Trial_Balance_Debit is 19585.46 This would make the Beginning_Balance of actindx 2 and Calendar_Month of 2014-02-01 19585.46
I am trying to do some type of self join, but not sure how to include each actindx number differently.
Table creation and data insert is below.
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TrialBalance](
[Trial_Balance_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,

Using MDS 2012: I have an entity "XYZ_Entity". In "XYZ_Entity" entity I have 2 domain based Columns "DealerGroup" and "Dealer".
While inserting information into "XYZ_Entity" entity user can select the required dealer group from domain base Dealer Group values. Now for selecting Dealer he wants the dealers to be filter based on selected dealer group and he can select from the filtered list. reason to do that is he don't want to go through thousands of dealers and select an incorrect one.
Is it possible, if yes then how?

Hi, I was wondering how I can complete a column (which doesnt have an input one) with data.
For example:
I have a sql query which bring data of 3 columns
ID | FISRT NAME | LAST NAME
1 MIKE MORGAN
2 SARA JOHANES
So, I will insert that data in a FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, which I configured with 3 columns and I did the corresponding mapping in the FLAT FILE DESTINTATION.
Now, If I add one more column in the FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, I will not have it mapped to a input one, obviously. So, what I need is to add one more column to the flat file destination and complete it with zeros values in it.
Probably I can solve this part by introducing a DERIVED COLUMN and there I can configure the zeros that I want to add to the column. But I'm not sure if I can do that without having a input column.
So, the question will be, how can I add one column to a flat file which doesnt have a input and introduce any value that I want to it?
Hope I was clear
Thanks for your help.

Hi there,
I am a new member of this site and I am not very much aware of T-sql's working.
My question is what if I need to get one column's data to be the heading of another column.
To be very exact I have a school's database. The table I am talking about is of the results of students. The table contains Student ID, Subject ID, Total marks of the subject, Marks obtained in the subject. Now I want to print a report by generating data from this table. Right now the data is something like this
StuID - - - SubID - - - -Tot - - -Obt
1 - - - - - - -1 - - - - - - -50 - - - 38
1 - - - - - - -2 - - - - - - -50 - - - 41
1 - - - - - - -3 - - - - - - -50 - - - 42
1 - - - - - - -4 - - - - - - -50 - - - 40
2 - - - - - - -1 - - - - - - -50 - - - 35
2 - - - - - - -2 - - - - - - -50 - - - 40
2 - - - - - - -3 - - - - - - -50 - - - 42
2 - - - - - - -4 - - - - - - -50 - - - 41
StudentID and SubjectID fields are related to other tables so I can get the names from there but when I need the report I need the data in the form of
StuID - Sub 1 - - - Sub 2 - - - Sub 3 - - - -Sub4
1 - - - - 38 - - - - - - 41 - - - - - - 42 - - - - - - 40
2 - - - - 35 - - - - - - 40 - - - - - - 42 - - - - - - 41
The Subjects can be different for different students so the query should be dynamic instead of hard coding the names of the subjects. I hope I am clear with my question. The subjectIDs or their names will become the headings and they will contain the obtained marks for that subjects in their columns just for the reports. I have also checked the PIVOT function but was not able to do what I wanted.
Thanks.

need some help converting a table which has one row for each year. Displaying the data so the each row will contain all of the information for the title and all of the years displayed in separate columns.
I have a SQL Querry which returns the data looking like this (the querry is grouping by Title and by year, then adding up the quantity of rows):
Basic Information needed for Life Insurance 25 2005
Basic Information needed for Life Insurance 45 2006
Ea Chairmans Conference 10 2005
EA Chairmans Conference Press Release 33 2005
EA Chairmans Conference Press Release 21 2006
EA Chairmans Inner Circle Press Release 16 2005
EA Chairmans Inner Circle Press Release 46 2006
EA Honor Ring Press Release 13 2005
EA Honor Ring Press Release 35 2006
EA National Conference Press Release 6 2005
EA National Conference Press Release 9 2006
I need this data displayed like this:
Title 2005 2006
Basic Information needed for Life Insurance 25 45
Ea Chairmans Conference 10 10
EA Chairmans Conference Press Release 33 21
EA Chairmans Inner Circle Press Release 16 46
EA Honor Ring Press Release 13 35
EA National Conference Press Release 6 9
What I want to do is to basically say:
If Row 1 Title = Row 2 Title and Row 1 Year = Row 2 (Year + 1)) Then
add to grid Row 1 Title, Row 1 Qty, Row 2 Qty
Skip Row 2 and go to Row 3 (repeat this step until end of data)
End
Is there any way in the SQL querry to retrieve this data in this format so that I can display it in a datagrid?
Is there any way to display the data in this pattern.
Below is the code I am using now, but since the moving of the data is done in code it is very slow.
****************** Global Variables
Dim dbName As String = "Region_Web_Page_Hits"
Dim ColumnCount As Integer
Function ReturnColumnHeaderAndHitsDataSet() As System.Data.DataSet
'******** This will bring back the column Headers and Gross Hits per Column
Dim ColumnHeaderAndHitsQueryString As String = "SELECT DISTINCT TOP 100 PERCENT " & _
"YEAR(dat_Date) AS str_Year, COUNT(str_PageName) AS int_YearHits " & _
"FROM dbo.tbl_web_page_hits " & _
"WHERE (str_URL LIKE N'%press_Release%') " & _
"GROUP BY YEAR(dat_Date) " & _
"HAVING (Not (Year(dat_Date) Is NULL)) " & _
"ORDER BY YEAR(dat_Date)"
Dim ColumnHeaderAndHitsDataSet = LoadDataArray(ColumnHeaderAndHitsQueryString, dbName)
Return ColumnHeaderAndHitsDataSet
End Function
Function ReturnTableDataSet() As System.Data.DataSet
'This query string will return the data needed to display the report.
Dim TableQueryString As String = "SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT " & _
"str_PageName, COUNT (str_PageName) AS int_Hits, YEAR(dat_Date) AS str_Year " & _
"FROM dbo.tbl_web_page_hits WHERE str_URL LIKE '%Press_Release%' " & _
"GROUP BY str_PageName, YEAR(dat_Date) ORDER BY str_PageName"
Dim TableDataSet = LoadDataArray(TableQueryString, dbName)
ColumnCount = TableDataSet.Tables(0).Columns.Count
Return TableDataSet
End Function
'******* Function to Load the Data Array
Function LoadDataArray(ByVal queryString, ByVal dbName) As System.Data.DataSet
Dim ConnectionString As String = ConnectionStr(dbName)
Dim sqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConnectionString)
Dim sqlCommand As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(queryString, sqlConnection)
Dim dataAdapter As SqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(sqlCommand)
Dim dataSet As DataSet = New DataSet
dataAdapter.Fill(dataSet)
sqlConnection.Close()
Return dataSet
End Function
Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
Dim Sort_Field As String = ""
dg_Data.DataSource = QueryMethod(Sort_Field)
dg_Data.DataBind()
End If
End Sub
Currently I have a bunch of Classic ASP code which puts the data in to an array and then into a table with a series of if statments, but it is really slow.
I want to bind it to a data grid and if possible let the SQL statement format the data for me.

When you use "Alter Table add Column", it adds the column to the end of the list of fields.
How do you insert the new column to position number 2 for instance given that you may have more than 2 columns?
Create table T1 ( a varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20))
Alter table add column x varchar(20)
so that the resulting table is
T1 a varchar(20), x varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20)
Can this be done programmatically?

A data reader is using a connection manager to connect to an ODBC System DSN . A query in the SqlCommand property is provided. Data is being truncated in the only string column . The data type in data reader output-->external columns shows as Unicode string [DT_WSTR] Length 7.
The truncated output in a text file is the first 3 characters from left to right . Changing the column order has no effect.
A linked server was created in SQL Server Management Studio to test the ODBC System DSN using the following:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'server_name',
@srvproduct = '',
@provider = 'MSDASQL',
@datasrc = 'odbc_dsn_name'
Data returned using "OPENQUERY" does not truncate the string column indicating that the ODBC Driver returns data as expected with sql 2005, but not with the Data Reader.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
