Convert Text Pulled From SQL Databse To UPPER And Lower, Etc
Aug 29, 2006
I'm still haven't resolved the issue with displaying information from a SQL database. The text I'm displaying is in ALL CAPS in the SQL database, and I'm trying to convert it so that when I display it in gridview, The First Letter Of Each Word Is Capitalized, as apposed to ALL CAPS. I've tried the text-transform feature of CSS, but I noticed in a SQL book there are LOWER() & UPPER() string functions. The ideal thing to do then, would be to do some select statement that converts all the incoming text to lowercase, then use the CSS text-transform: capitalize , to convert the first letter of each word to caps.
Basically, I need a select statement or something that converts my sql material to lowercase. Thanks.
In the database, most of our cities are stored in all upper case. For reporting purposes, I need to have them returned as upper/lower. I used the below function, which works great for one word cities. However I can’t figure out how to get it to capitalize the 1st letter of each word, for addresses containing multiple names such as Rancho Santa Margarita.
Our sql server 2005 database is receiving data from a third part program over which we have no control. We need to be able to automatically convert data entered in one column of one table to UPPER case only.

After pulling a table and pushing it back out with more data i need to drop the table.. no problem i thought. I read that the errors table drops when you drop the related tracked table. However this doesn't seem to be the case, for me anyway.
Drop Tracked Table Code
Sub DropSwipes() 'Drop the Table Try Dim x As String = db.QueryScalar("SELECT Table_name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.tables WHERE table_name = 'Swipes'") If x = "Swipes" Then db.Update("DROP TABLE Swipes") End If Catch ex As Exception MsgBox("Drop failed") MsgBox(ex.ToString) Finally End Try End Sub
After running this code and then trying to pull a new tracked table i get a "Table Swipe_Errors Already exists". The tracked table itself has been dropped though.
Hi all - I receive the error below at the end of one of my DTS packages. All steps in the package actually complete successfully but right at the end I get a Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library pop-up with the following:
I am building a dashboard features that allows user to select reports from a dropdownlist. It is pulling from a table called Reports (cols: ReportID, Description, sqlView) In this Report table the report is associated to a view that queries the report. And the user's selections are stored in table called UserReport (cols: userID, ReportID, createDt) . I need to get a Dataset to contain datables of all reports selected. (for example a user select 3 reports, the dataset should contain 3 datables that represent the report). I want to accomplish this by create a store procedure that queries the Reports table and then dynamically executes the views that related to the user selected reports. Can anyone give me an example on how to create the storeprocedure? Thanks, CG
Hello. I'm wondering how I CONVERT or CAST a column of type TEXT to INT with T-SQL ?
Also, is there anyway to catch an error in a Stored Procedure. For example if you try to convert a CHAR column to INT when the column has an 'a' in it, can I try to convert and if it did't work I do something else ? Or is there a way to check if a column has only numbers ?
Thanks for any help, the CONVERT Text to Int is the most urgent ...

I have an image data type in a table (it is a digital signature) and one of my users wants me to search the image data and see how many people have a certain attribute in their digital signature. I know the image data is HEX, but how, in query analyzer, can I view it as the XML digital signature data that it really is? So, how can I convert hex to text in sql server?
Hi all iam trying to but a varchar variable into a TEXT var but i get this error "The assignment operator operation cannot take a text data type as an argument"
I want to merge data from two different tables that have the same column names but different datatypes.
Table one has a varchar field pubdate_full that includes a date formatted as text like this: '2005-04-15'.
Table two has a smalldatetime field called Hard_NYP and a varchar pubdate field that includes just the year (eg '2007').
I want to Select data in table two and return a pubdate_full field that has either the datepub or the Hard_due. If the Hard_due is not null or '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM' then I want to fill pubdate_full with that value, otherwise fill it with the pubdate value.
This works in that regard:
SELECT Hard_due, datepub CASE WHEN (Hard_due <> '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM') AND (Hard_due IS NOT NULL) THEN Hard_Due ELSE datepub END AS pubdate_full from inventory
The question is, how do I convert pubdate_full on the fly to be the same format and datatype as the Table one pubdate_full or vice versa in order to be able to merge the two tables?

I have a number of bit datatypes ( Boat types: Cruiser, Sportfisher, Megayacht, Sailboat) that I would like to place in a text box and do away with the individual selections. For instance, some marinas cater to "Cruiser", "Megayacht" and "Sailboat" while others include the "Sportfisher" also and there are many other combinations of vessels. I am stumped at how to write a query that takes the existing "True" values for each boat type and places them in a text box in the form of " Cruisers, Megayachts, Sailboats" .
I have a source DB that contains a BLOB which is really a bunch of text. I am trying to use SSIS to read this BLOB and stream the chars as text to a flat file which will later be FTP'ed to another server and reloaded as nvarchar records.
In my data flow task I have my source (SQL DB BLOB) and target (Flat File) of course...in between I am using a script component to try and convert the BLOB. Here is my code:
Dim intBlobLength As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Row.denoteblob.Length) Dim intFinish As Integer = intBlobLength - 1 Dim byteBlob(intFinish) As Byte byteBlob = Row.denoteblob.GetBlobData(0, intFinish)
