Complete Idiot Calling All Intelligent Lifeforms

May 22, 2007

Hi all, I run several contact websites. One of them is www.ramc.org.uk - they used to fill in a form and results emailed to me. I then manually copied and pasted into page on server. Very tiresome.



I was hoping with sql express i could create a page where they enter there details into the database after verifying details via a link..... Then as the new details are added they would be displayed on the contacts page in alphabetical order.



Is this really possible or even feasable.



Cheers, your all stars. Mark

COUNT() Idiot

Sep 1, 2005

I have three tables: table1 has a one-to-many relationship with bothtable2 and table3. When I do a left join to get a count from table2,it works:SELECT table1.field1, COUNT(table2.field1) as MyCountFROM table1 LEFT JOIN table2 ON table1.field1 = table2.field1WHERE...GROUP BY table1.field1I want to also get a count from table3:SELECT table1.field1, COUNT(table2.field1) as MyCount,COUNT(table3.field1) as MyOtherCountFROM table1 LEFT JOIN table2 ON table1.field1 = table2.field1LEFT JOIN table3 ON table1.field1 = table3.field1WHERE...GROUP BY table1.field1The Count totals from the above query end up being a multiple of thetotals that I actually want. (If there are 8 records each in table2 andtable3, the counts would be 64 for each table). Can someone help meget the proper counts, in this case 8 from table2 and 8 from table3.Thanks!

Duplicate Removal And Intelligent T-SQL

Jul 20, 2005

I am looking for some T_SQL code that would help us eliminateduplicate data entry into our mailing db. Finding and removing theexisting dups is not rocket science, but I am looking for a completesolution.We also want to be able to come up with a T-SQL script to beintelligent enough to know if:"Bill Jones" is the same as "Billy Jones" or"Bill Jones" is the same as "William Jones" or"Bill Jones at 123 My street" is the same as "Bill Jones at 123 MySt."Purchasing scripts from a company is not out of the question. Its amatter of script cost versus my hourly rate to create them... Needlessto say, something cheap.We have only heard of one app that is dynamic enough to handle this,and the cost was way, way out of our range, 6 figures is almost 2years salary.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

IDIOT NEEDS HELP Comparing A Variable Against A List

Feb 14, 2007

I have a variable called @ORComm which has been selected using a cursor from each line on an order.

DECLARE TC2 CURSOR FOR
SELECT [Commodity],[Total] FROM [CSITSS].[dbo].[Ordrate] WHERE [OrderNumber]= @OrdNum AND [Companydiv] = 'GLPC-TRANS'
OPEN TC2
FETCH NEXT FROM TC2 INTO @ORComm, @ORTotal

I need to compare the resulting @ORComm against a list of valid commodity types selectable by

SELECT [CommodityClass] FROM [CSITSS].[dbo].[Comclass] WHERE [CompanyDiv] = 'GLPC-TRANS' AND [DELETED] = 0

What's the easiest way to do this?

Who's The Idiot That Designed The File Destination?

Jan 23, 2007

It's funny:

Everyone thinks that CSVs are awesome to transport data. I mean after all, SSIS defaults to Comma Delimited files. Even Excel defaults to it. Microsoft is supposed to be our leader! They should get this right. And get the terminology correct too. How many people describe the file as comma separated? It's delimited! Even SQL server calls it delimited by the "delimited" drop down.

CSVs suck and i will tell you why:

When you transport any text field (especially Address) it has the possibility of containing a comma. This causes data to be parsed into the wrong fields. Why in God's grace would you EVER get in the habit of choosing a delimiter that SOMETIMES doesn't work?

I'll tell you a little short story:

I have been waiting (at work) for like a month for a guy to export data and give me this file. Well today i finally got that file. He was in a hurry and used the Defaults to export this file. I don't blame him for being in a hurry and using the defaults. Well the defaults made the import NOT work because the data parsed into the wrong columns. Comma delimited would work if there was a text qualifier. But the default is comma delimited and NO text qualifier. What idiot thought that would be good. Or it was the separation of duties that eff'd this one up? Who knows?

Fix your products!

That's my .02

How To Fix My Business Intelligent Management Studio?

Dec 3, 2007



Hi, friends.

I make a big mistake like this:

First, I installed the sql server 2005, Second, I installed the VS.net 2005 (vb.net). After that, I uninstalled the VS.NET 2005. Then I found after I uninstalled the VS.NET, the Business Intelligent Management Studio is gone too. I install the VS.NET 2005 again.

Now I could use the Business Intelligent Management Studio to open a SSIS project and a package, but there is nothing in the toolbox in it. Also the IDE could not recognize any object inside the ETL package, like the Task, the Compoment, etc. So I think that the Business Intelligent Management Studio is still not be really installed. The IDE is the VB.NET, and something needed to deal with the ETL package is missing.

How to fix the Business Intelligent Management Studio? I mean, how to make my vb.net to deal with an ETL package agian?

Thanks!

Hi all,

I desperately need to setup the AD-HOC reporting on SQL server 2005.
I think one of the templates that I need is in Business Intelligent Project Templets Reporting Model Template in Visual Studio Templates.

But I do not see it in there.
Can some one please let me know where can I get the Reporting Model Template, or a link to where I can download or how to create it.

Thanks or any help.

DTS On Complete

Apr 14, 2008

 What can I do to make OnComplete and OnSuccess mean something in SQL Server 2000 DTS?I have this pretty simple package that imports data into a table from an XLS file, then runs an external console application which manipulates the data and drops into a different table.That data is then used to create a CSV file. If I execute each step individually, the whole thing works. But what it happening is that the end file is being created before the console app is finished.I have a workflow line (on complete) between the 2 processes, but that doesn't seem to mean anything. To run the external app I am just using an active x script task...CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "my file" Any advice?

Help Complete This CLR Code?

May 3, 2006

Using the tutorial at:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms131094.aspx

I've determined that the code I need to follow is:

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.Sql
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Imports System.Data.SqlClient

'The Partial modifier is only required on one class definition per project.
Partial Public Class StoredProcedures
''' <summary>
''' Create a result set on the fly and send it to the client.
''' </summary>
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure> _
Public Shared Sub SendTransientResultSet()
' Create a record object that represents an individual row, including it's metadata.
Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )

' Populate the record.
record.SetSqlString(0, "Hello World!")

' Send the record to the client.
SqlContext.Pipe.Send(record)
End Sub
End Class

Given this code, how do I add other SqlMetaData Columns to the statement:

Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )

---

Like this???

Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128),New SqlMetaData("otherstringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )

I assume

record.SetSqlString(0, "Hello World!")

record.SetSqlString(1, "I'm Here!")

To populate the data.

Thanks,

-David

Scheduled DTS Packages Don't Complete - HELP!!!

Mar 26, 2003

Hi all - I'm having problems getting a package to run successfully to completion when I schedule it in SQL Server or as a batch file on the Windows scheduler. If I run the package interactively or run the batch file interactively that contains the DTSRUN command it runs to completion. Both packages start with a call to a batch file that FTPs files from a remote server and then they continue on by executing additional DTS packages within the running package. The owner of all the packages involved and is the same user that I am logged in as when running the packages interactively and is the same user that that SQL Agent and the Windows scheduler job runs under. The FTP step of each package does complete successfully but then I cannot trace where the package then hangs. The package never fails but rather it just continues in a Executing/Running state. This is getting extremely frustrating. Any insight in to this problem would be greatly appreciate.

Delete Staement Won&#39;t Complete

Feb 18, 2002

Hello.

I have a delete statement that works on some servers/databases and not on others. I am running this on SQL Server 2000/Windows 2000. The statment is a very simple DELETE x FROM y WHERE x = 1234. It is only 1 record in one table. The staement begins but never completes. It looks as if it just keeps trying to recompile but goes nowhere. Have any of you ever seen this before? It works on a restore of the database on 1 server, but not on another. It will not run on either production server/database. Is there a parameter or setting that I need to look for that might be different and causing this? I am running the Enterprise edition of SQL Server on some servers, and standard edition on others. Would that make a difference? If so, how and why. I've never had this issue before. We are running Windows Advanced Server on most all of our servers.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Not Enough Storage Is Available To Complete This Operation

Aug 31, 2004

Hi,

I am having trouble trying to import a big file (aprox 250Mb is size) into an SQL Server database and I keep getting the message:

"Not enough storage is available to complete this operation".

The application tries to import the file by executing a stored procedure:

CREATE PROCEDURE sp_updateMaterialBlob
@MaterialId Int,
@BLOB image
AS
BEGIN
Update Material SET blob = @blob where id = @materialId
END

The application uses an ADO connection. I've tried increasing the memory of the client machine but that didn't work. Whenever I do run the import, nearly all the memory on the machine is used up but every time after several hours I get the same error message. What is the cause of the problem and how do I resolve it? Ideally I want to use my application to do the import rather than anything bespoke.

First Database Complete, Can't Connect!

Nov 22, 2007

Hello all! A while ago I started cataloging my collection of old radio recordings and I wrote a simple Visual Basic 2005 program to display them in a nice UI. I have implemented an SQL database with the project and all is fine, when I run the program it connects to the sql server and downloads the data. But when I try and change something by connecting from within Visual Basic at runtime with this code:

Private Sub Save_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Save.Click
Dim ConnectionString As New SqlConnection("Server=MARK-HOMESQLEXPRESS;Database=Library.mdf;Uid=MARK-HOMEMark;Pwd=sodoff;")
Dim sqlString As String
ConnectionString.Open()
sqlString = "UPDATE JackBenny SET Rating='Excellent' WHERE [Episode Number]=" & epNumber
ConnectionString.BeginTransaction(sqlString)
ConnectionString.Close()
End Sub

I get this error code in the log and a general unable to login error within Visual basic itself:

2007-11-22 15:44:39.78 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 5.
2007-11-22 15:44:39.78 Logon Login failed for user 'Mark'. [CLIENT: <local machine>

The state of 5 refers to "User ID is not valid." but I can login to SQL Server Management Studio Express just fine with the username and password in the code posted. Also of note, I can login to the Server Managment with the sa account username and password. When I use the credentials in visual basic code, same error. Any ideas? I am trying to connect to a database which is on this computer (local) in the root folder of the application, called Library.mdg.

Thanks so much all

A Complete Uninstall Of SQL 2005

May 8, 2006

I recently re-built my entire system from ground up (new hard drives, OS, etc). I now have the problem of SQL 2005 installed partially, but no way to get the management tools installed. I get an "already installed message when I try". I've never encounted this before on any other SQL install.

Sequence of events. I installed VS 2005 Pro first, then followed by SQL 2005. Somewhere this install didn't work, and I was left with the MS installed thinking I suceeded, yet none of the functions of SQL were worked or more importantly accessable.

I tried to re-install after using the ADD/Remove App from the control panel (which was sucessfull). SQL thought it was still installed. So I uninstalled VS 2005 as well, and deleted any programs in the SQL directory. Then I checked ADD/Remove programs and nothing was showing. The re-install still did not work. My guess is that the registry is still loaded with now useless entries.

Is there any solution left that does not require me to hand delete any SQL registry entries, since that is always a great way to completely kill my system.

Thanks.

Complete Noob Question.

Feb 8, 2008

I'm in a db design, implement, and mgmt class this semester and we are teaching ourselves SQL using MS SQL 2005. I downloaded and installed MS SQL Server 05 Std version successfully. However, when I open the Server Mgmt Studio I am prompted to connect to a server??

EX:
Server Type: Database Engine
Server Name:?????????
Windows Authentication

To my knowledge we have been given no server info and are only supposed to be learning the language. Can I just cancel this window and continue?

The only help we have been given is a O Reilly: Learning SQL on SQL Server 2005 and they kind of skip all the installation and setup stages.

I should probably mention that I'm using Vista.

Complete Lack Of Database Connectivity

Since then I've been unable to connect from any of my applications or websites in Visual Studio 2005 to either:- my new 2005 Developer database engine- my colleagues 2005 developer database engine. My colleague can connect to my databases from his visual studio on his machine. I am receiving unspecified OleDb errors.Anyone else had this happen? Anyone know where I should start looking? I've uninstalled all .Net frameworks and re-installed 1.1 and 2.0.Many thanks, Sam
