Hello, it seems I forgot how to do it,
I want to create a query to get the column description table, I mean get structure without data.
I remember it was select DESC or something like that, donno if im right!!!
regards
I am having trouble bringing "description" column in to my sp and them at the out put. in the ppatient_status_mstr there is a column called“description” which has patient status such as “discharged” “termed collection” etc... How do I use the SP to bring this description into application? I am assigning it to @mytext. I am not sure how to declare “description” in the SP? Every time I use it I get errors like:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 20
The multi-part identifier "pm.alerts_ind" could not be bound.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 40
Invalid column name 'description'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 43
Invalid column name 'description'.
I want to say if user picks a description from application . show me that description in output. But I am having trouble how to use the description? I am not sure if my “IF” statements are correct either?
Here is the procedure
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CheckStatus] (@enc_id varchar(36) OUTPUT, @Mytext varchar(50) OUTPUT, @data_ind Char(1) OUTPUT)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE
@alerts_ind char(1)
[code]....

How can I query/script Column or Table description (extended property MS_Description') in SQLserver 2005 db.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am migrating between SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 but hit a snag when attempting to write a query to display the column's description.
I used this code with SQL Server 2000 to get the "Description" data.
select o.name 'table' , c.name 'column' , p.value as 'description' , t.name 'datatype' , c.isnullable 'nullable?' , c.length, m.text 'default_text' from sysobjects o
join syscolumns c on o.id = c.id
join sysproperties p on o.id = p.id and p.smallid = c.colid
join systypes t on c.xtype = t.xtype
left outer join syscomments m on m.id = c.cdefault
order by 'table' , 'column'
How can I reproduce this with SQL Server 2005? I tried using the following which gives me a lot of the same data but not "Description":
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Hello All.
I have created a table with short name as the file name but have entered the description in the column box (when creating a new table - see attached). I would like to show this description information in query analyser. Can this be done? I used sp_help <table name> but it doesn't show the description.
Please advise. Thank you.
Best regards
I am trying to get the schema of database using the getschema method. However, the schema that is being returned does not include the description. I have added in table and column descriptions for some of my tables and columns but the dataset returned does not include the description column.

I am trying to figure out how to set the Description of a Column in my database table by making a SQL function call. I know that I can go into Microsoft Studio Express and type in each desciption for each column. I just have about 1000 variables and each variable's description is in an Excel spreadsheet. I want to be able to build SQL code that will set each of the 1000 variables own description.
Thanks for any help.

Hi all,
I need to get the error description from the SQL Server in a SP. For ex:
I have one insert statement which is inserting some values in a tabUserMaster table. If user tries to insert any duplicated row then following error is retruned [in Query analyzer].
Server: Msg 2601, Level 14, State 3, Procedure csp_ProvisionUser, Line 70
Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'CoreUser' with unique index 'IDX_CoreUser_UserName'.
The statement has been terminated.
I want to trap this whole message in a variable. How to do this..... :(
I have hundreds of tables in my database.
Is there a way to get a list of them with a description
of their content (the procedure and the transaction they
are related to, the way columns are created)?
Thank you. Anna - Verona (Italy)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to club the ErrorDescription system variable property in OnError.
And I want to send this whole ErrorDescription variable on onTaskFailed.
Can you please suggest how to club this errordescription on OnError event
This is a request to the Microsoft SSIS staff.
I did a search for the keywords in the description and can already see a lot of people frustrated about this.
A lot of well designed integration packages will route error messages to an error table or file.
SSIS appends a couple of extra error columns called ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. At runtime, an extra
column is visible in the DataViewer called ErrorCode - Description.
The description is hardcoded into the dtsmsg.h file in the SDK folder of Sql Server.
This file is very hard to parse.
Can some from SSIS please post an XML or CSV file with all the error codes and descriptions for us to download please.
This will be such a big help in debugging.
Many Thanks.

Hi,
If you browse to Amazon and drill down through categories until a paged
listing appears, you will see in each item of the listing that the
description rendered as Book Description, is a cutdown version of the
full description, with a ... and "Read More" hyperlink. How is
this achieved programatically? I dont know if thre is an efficient way
in SQL Server to do this, or whether it would be easier to have a
ShortHand field and a Description field, both of which are teh full
description when shown in the Details page, but the ShortHand is the
field rendered in listings. This seems like a simplistic solution
and I am thinking there may be programmatic means of doing the same -
has anybody got any experience in this area?
Thanks!
