Is there a limit to how much text you can concatenate (other than data
type limits, of course)? For example, if you write:
SELECT 'This is some text from: ' + Convert(char(15), SomeFieldName01)
+ 'some more text' + Convert(char(25), SomeFieldName02) + 'yet more
text.' As BigNote
FROM Table
Is there a limit on how much you can concatenate into that big note
field, meaning is there a limit other than the size of the data type?
Im curious about how much data SQL Server 2000 can handle. Where does SQL Server stand today comparing to Oracle? It would be interesting to hear views and experiences from people here on swynk on SQL Server 2000. How big are the biggest tables, how many rows and speed etc. When is it time to consider using Oracle, if ever, instead of SQL Server 2000?

I have created a UDF in SQL 2000 to implement a String Concatenation in an aggregate query. It works fine, but with the large data set I am using this against, it is very SLOW. (I also tried using a Cursor in a SP but that was even slower!)
I have seen several articles on the web about performing aggregate concatenation in SQL Server 2005 using either the PIVOT function, XML, or the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
Does anyone know how much better these statements perform in SQL 2005 over the method I am using in SQL 2000? If it is significantly higher performing in 2005 this may push us to upgrade our system to use it.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi folks. I'm trying to clear up some licensing confusion I"ve come across. First, if I use MIRROR on SS SE I am limited to a single REDO thread and Sycn mode. I see that on the Web. Will the singel REDO thread hurt the ability for the Secondary to keep up? Any one done any tests?
My confusion comes from a document that came across my desk a long time ago that showed that if you use MIRROR on SQL Server SE you are limited to 4 processors for the entire cluster. So if you wanted a balanced failover you would have to have two 2-ways in essence. Is this true? Is it not longer true? I can't seem to find any mention of this....did someone give me bad advice? Help! Thanks.
Hello all.
For my first foray into this forum I have a tricky one....
We have a table in our database called tblJob with two columns:
id IDENTITITY(1,1)
jobNbr VARCHAR (5) (This would be, for example '12323')
When a new job is created (i.e. job Number 12323), the client wants a trigger on this table that creates a new table called tblJobData12323.
Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?
Thank you in advance.

What are the limits of SQL Server 2005 Express. I have 500,000 records and 60 users. Is this acceptable?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been developing a vb app with sql server 2005 and had planned to use express as the client server so the db could be distributed with the app. After importing 21 csv text files, I realized that I have way too much data. My understanding is that sqlexpress can only work with max 4gb database.
The 21 csv files (total 925mb) brought the db size up to 1.5gb and I still have at least 250 more files to go. Obviously, I need a different approach. What are the size limitations of the non express version of sql server 2005? Any suggestions on the best approach for this type of situation?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a hierarchical structure for mapping products to categories, categories go 3 levels deep (depth is defined in articlegroups.catlevel, 0 being the main category and traversing down to lower category level 2). Also, a product may be in more than 1 category(!).
product details are stored in `[products]`
articlegroups are defined in `[articlegroups]`
and the mapping of the products to the articlegroups are defined in `[products_category_mapping]`
Now, I want to retrieve index the full category path for each item, so with the data provided below, I'd expect these 2 rows as a result:
id categorystring
2481446 Taarttoppers > Taarttoppers grap'pig
2481446 Bruidstaart > Taarttoppers > Grappig
Now I can get the separate fields via a statement like this:
SELECT ga.slug_nl as slug_nl_0
FROM articlegroups ga
INNER JOIN products_category_mapping pcm ON pcm.articlegroup_id=ga.id
INNER JOIN products gp on gp.id=pcm.artikelid
WHERE gp.id=2481446

I have a need to create a table in a sql server database from C# code. The kicker is that the user must be able to specify the table and field names via the UI. I can do a bit of sanity checking but as long as they enter something reasonable I need to accept it. Normaly I always ADO parameters to sanitise any user parameters but they can't be applied to table and field names, only values. As far as I'm aware that leaves me needing to concatenate strings and that's something I usually avoid like the plague due to risk of SQL injection.
My actual question : Assuming string concatenation is my only way forward, how can I sanitise the values that would go into the table name and fieldname bits of a CREATE TABLE statement to ensure that injection can't occur? I've been pondering it and I think I just need to check for semi-colons. Without a semi-colon I don't think a user could inject an extra statement could they?
Can anyone tell me what would happen if you install more RAM on a server than SQL 2000 can handle?

In Oracle & Sybase you can set login resource limits to restrict, time of day, number of i-o's, cpu use etc for any login, at the login method. All actions done from a resource limit constrained login inherit the constraints.
Is there any way to implment this with any MS SQL Server version from 200-2005/SP2?
Before anyone answers, please do not suggest set rowcount etc.
thanks.

Hi all,
I am migrating a data warehouse from SQL 2000 to 2005. So far, I have been able to convert all DTS's on the old server and most tables and users. I am having problems with some of my views, though. A view which involves over 5 tables, and some sub-views of those tables runs perfectly on SQL 2000, but on 2005 I get a Query Timed out Message. A typical run of this view can return from 200-1000 records. My guess is that it gets stuck somewhere in the subviews it has to run. So I wonder, what are the limitations of SQL 2005 concerning Queries and sub-queries (how many subqueries can a query have without timing out?). I mean, I would expect 2005 to have more processing capacity than SQL 2000 (on which this query runs perfectly). I have run some queries which don't run on 2000 but do run on 2005 and return over 4000 records.
Or is there some setting I haven't adjusted, like the time it takes for a query to time out? How would I adjust this, then?
Many thanks for the info.

I am looking at the failover options for SQL Server 2005 and the mirroring option as documented in Using Database Mirroring with Office SharePoint Server and Windows SharePoint Services seems to cover this however I have a concern about the recommended limit of 10 databases.
Has anyone had any experience with this, i.e. can it support more and also what sizing limits would be expected (I assume as it uses transactions this is not an issue).
