I was using an Hp ex470 single disk WHS when I started to recieve the data corruption bug. (http://www.wegotserved.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=1872).
The data entered into the corrupted machine will insert unrecognized characters(square boxes) into an ntext column. (example : Coder213[][] is having big[][] problems.) It looks like everytime a character return is hit in the application the [][] show up.
Since the system had only been up for a week, I decided to move everything onto a new server 2003 box.(I already had an instance of the database before the box...so no problems) I had the workers copy and paste the data from the old app into the new app via the web interface. Guess what? [][] on the new box. I thought the unrecognized charters were copied from the interface..but now even new data being entered in is showing up with [][]. What is going on? I'm hoping one of you admin gurus can tell me to change a setting and everything will be ok.
The app runs fine and nothing really seems to be bothered by the blocks..but I don't like them. ..makes me nervous
Should I be concerned?

I've made a Report porting from SS2008 to SS2008.
In a textbox I use a:
Number -> Custom Format
like these:
=Code.FormatString(Fields!NumDecRpt.Value)
but gives me the "Unrecognized identifier" red squiggle.
My FormatString function (in the rdl file) is this:
Public Shared Function FormatString(ByVal Decimals as object) As String
dim format = "N0"
if not (Decimals is nothing or Decimals is System.DBNull.Value) then
dim decs as integer
decs = Convert.ToInt32(Decimals)
if decs>0 then
format = "N"+decs.ToString()
end if
end if
return format
End Function
What's wrong with this?

A column in my database contains phrases such as "Extreme Golf: The Showdown" or "Welcome to Happy Land". I need to write a search engine so that users could type in phrases such as "Golf Extreme Showdown" or "Happy Land" and the correct, or closest matched results will be returned. I don't need variations of words, just phrase keyword match based search. I know I could do this by using multiple LIKE %% statements OR'd together, but this would be too performance intensive. So, I have heard I should use charindex somehow to achieve this in a stored procedeure. Does anyone have any clue how to solve this problem? Thanks!

Due to a business rule change, I had to take what was 1 column in a table and split it off into a new table. Now I need to find every time that column is used in a SPROC and change those sprocs. Is there a way to sift through the sprocs to search for a "phrase" (the column name) -- other than reading through every one manually?
Thanks

I have a repository with about 10,000 records. These records are selectable by searching by author surname, this works fine, but. the powers that be would like the data to be searchable by phrase. The db lives on a commercial host where I'm unable to create full text search catalogues.
I'd like to be able to return all results that contain both terms, or either if someone types in (for example) Breast Cancer. The search will only select from the the one field which will contain complex phrases such as "Second-line treatment of postmenopausal women with advanced breast carcinoma"
Any help on creating a select query that will do this will be greatly appreciated...

I have a database that will be used by two or more organizations. I would like to use pass phrase encryption to encrypt a couple of columns.
I'm looking for suggestions on how I might set up the db to let the organization change the pass phrase that is used for their encryption?
I don't really want to hard code it into stored procedures or select statements with parameters. I will be using SSL if that should make a difference with what you suggest.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thank you

Hello all,
From what I've read, SQL Server is supposed to do a phrase match when you do a full text search that contains quoted literals. So, for example, if I did a full text search on the phrase "time out" and I put it in quotes, it's supposed to search for the full phrase "time out" and not just look for rows that contain the words "time" or "out." However, this isn't working for me.
Here is the query that I'm using :
SELECT *
FROM Content_Items ci
INNER JOIN FREETEXTTABLE(Content_Items, hed, '"time out"') AS ft ON ci.contentItemId = ft.[KEY]
ORDER BY ft.RANK DESC
What's it's doing is this : it's returning a bunch of rows that have the words "time" or "out" in the column called hed. It's also returning rows that have the full phrase "time out", but it's giving those rows the same rank as rows that only contain the word "time." In this case, that rank is 180.
Is there anything else I should be doing in my query, or is there some configuration option I should have turned on?
Thanks.

We compulsorily use NOLOCK in our scripts on reporting DB and development generally forget putting NOLOCKS or schema names with tables.
Creating a script to search for a missing word or a phrase in SQL Server script.
Our format is
<schema>.<table> <alias here> WITH NOLOCK <or alias here>
or
<schema>.<table> <alias here> NOLOCK <or alias here>
or
<schema>.<table> <alias here> (NOLOCK) <or alias here>
but generally developers write only <table> <alias>

I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks

I am trying to implement a band search on my web site (concert listings) and would like it to behave a bit more intelligently than a standard match on the band name.
At the moment I have a stored procedure that just selects every show that features a band with exactly the same name as the search term. What I'm now trying to do is when the user enters a band name containing the '&' character I would also like to search using the word and 'and'. For example, if they search for 'Rise & Fall', they should get details on all shows featuring 'Rise & Fall' OR 'Rise And Fall'. Is it possible to do this within my stored procedure?

Greetings, I am a php developer, and running a little bit out of deadline in a project. Can someone provide me with a VERY simple way to implement search by keyword in C#? I have already implemented a search page (according to firstname, lastname etc) that works on a drop down menu (where you have the option to choose seach by keyword) . So, I need to change something in my SQL query to make this work. I already knew from my SQL experience that the simplest and probably the SLOWEST and MOST UN EFFICIENT one was using LIKE. I don't mind using it but I can't since I will end up having something close to that: SELECT * FROM users WHERE keyword_entered LIKE @keyword; (or '@keyword) which does not work. however SELECT * FROM users WHERE keyword_entered LIKE 'somename%'; does work! I guess the trick is in putting the % after the keyword. ( I would have done that in php by putting the entered keyword in a string and than add to it % and pass it to the SQL query and I dunno how to do that in .NET)any ideas?

Hi everyone,
I have a few classes representing my data layer for my ASP.Net 2.0 Web Application. For example, UserDAL, DocumentDAL, etc... All these classes derive from BaseDAL, which stores the SqlConnection in it. The DAL classes access it through a property. The property is defined like that:
private SqlConnection connection;public SqlConnection Connection{get{ if (connection == null) connection = new SqlConnection(); if (connection.State != ConnectionState.Open) { connection.ConnectionString = ConnectionString; connection.Open(); } return connection;}}
The constructor of each DAL class is overloaded and takes a SqlConnection object. So if I need to access two DAL classes, I pass the connection of the first, to the second to prevent opening and closing the connection again and again. Here is a sample: UserDAL userDAL = new UserDAL();
userDAL.DoSomethingAndAccessConnectionProperty();
// Now userDAL.Connection is opened. Pass the connection to the constructor of DocumentDAL
DocumentDAL documentDAL = new DokumentDAL(userDAL.Connection);
documentDAL.AlsoDoSomething();
So, if I do the following:using (UserDAL userDAL = new UserDAL())
{
userDAL.DoSomethingAndAccessConnectionProperty();
DocumentDAL documentDAL = new DokumentDAL(userDAL.Connection);
documentDAL.AlsoDoSomething();
}
I assume that the connection is removed from memory, even if the DocumentDAL class has also used it. Am I right? I want to be sure that there will be no open connections.Thanks

I have a sample photo database where we have added keywords to search for photos. I wanted a way to list all of the keywords that are in the database individually. The problem is in my keyword field there are many keywords seperated by a comma.
Ex: "bull, barrel, rodeo, western, cowboy" would in the keyword field for one photo.
I wanted to select distinct all of the individual words from each keyword field in all of the records.
Can this be done? What would the query look like?
I am looking for a list like:
bull
barrel
rodeo
western
cowboy
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

If I use DISTINCT isn't there a rule where it must be the first field selected? Also, there can only be one DISTINCT field in a query, correct?
ie,
SELECT DISTINCT fieldA, fieldB
FROM tableA
but not
SELECT fieldA, DISTINCT fieldB
FROM tableA
or
SELECT DISTINCT fieldA, DISTINCT fieldB
FROM tableA
thanks again, this is a great forum

hi guys i have a query that contains several table joins
when i run the query without select distinct x,y,z,w,.. or order by docno it takes around 20 second to finish execution, when i add select distinct x,y,z,w,.. or order by docno it ruturns the same result in just 2 seconds
is adding distict keyword or order by acts as an index for the query or what ?
.
.

.
here is my query :
SELECT distinct p.indocno,p.CHAR_FIELD2_AR, p.CHAR_FIELD1, p.REVISION_NO, CAST(p.INDOCNO AS int) AS INDOCNO, p.CHAR_FIELD3, p.CHAR_FIELD7_AR, T.DESCRIPTION,J.DESCRIPTION AS [Section], p.SUBJECT
FROM dbo.TECHNICAL_MAIN p INNER JOIN
(SELECT MAX(revision_no) d, char_field1 c, char_field2_ar e, subcat_id j
FROM technical_main m
WHERE revision_no IN ('0', '1', '2')
GROUP BY char_field1, char_field2_ar, subcat_id) b
ON p.REVISION_NO = b.d AND p.CHAR_FIELD1 = b.c AND p.CHAR_FIELD2_AR = b.e AND p.REVISION_NO IN ('0', '1', '2')

Hi all,
I have two datatables in my database. The first table, named Books, has two columns: BookID and Author (BookID is the primary key). The second table, named Purchases, has three columns: PurchaseID, BookID, BuyerID (Purchase ID is the primary key).
The idea here is that the Books datatable contains information regarding the book and its author while the Purchases datatable contains information on who has purchased what book.
Now, say I want to write an SQL query to extract a list of all the authors who have written a book purchased by buyer X. How would I go about doing this without having any duplicate entries? I figured that the following would work:
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM Books INNER JOIN Purchases ON Books.BookID=Purchases.BookID
But this ends up generating duplicate BookIDs if the Purchases table contains several buyers who have bought that Book. I know I could use BookID rather than * in the above query and that would work, but in reality I'm dealing with more complex tables and I would rather keep the * in there to actually get all the data out in one go.
