I have UTF8 data (cyrillic characters) in my DB. while searching the same with input, i have to convert it to windows 1252 format and match. Is their any way in sql to do it in query
like
select * from tablename where convert(fieldnameinfo, windows1252) = 'inputstring'
Code page translations are not supported for the text data type. From:1252 To: 950.I would like to know what this message means. I also installed thelanguage packs in advanced settings, Everything is set to English. Mywindows XP computer is XP English. For some reason I cant get an updateto go thru using ADO. like Recordset.UpdateAlthough other routines using .update workAny ideas?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to export the data from a number of MSSQL 2000 tables to UTF8 csv files.
Using the bcp that came with MSSQL 2000 didn't work (UTF8 related), so I am now accessing the 2000 database from within MSSQL 2008 R2 Management Studio and use its Import and Export wizard that does make UTF8 exports possible.
But it fails. This is the error I got for one table.

What do I have to do?
Well , I have a SQL 7 work with code page 840 and contain about 3 MG of arabic content (extended ASCII Code) , but we need to chnage the SQL 7 to work with code page 1252 with the data ib it , cause we face a problem with the code page 840 so we want it to be 1252 , so if some one suggest anything to solve this problem , I will be happy to hear from them ....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am presently using MS SQL Server 2000; I have an authentication problem for which I do not have a good solution. Here are the main issues related to the problem:
Standards mandate we change to use Windows authentication
We have an old fat client application that presently works using SQL authentication
We have ad hoc and report users that are members of a domain group that has read only privileges in the database
The database is a union of 8 distinct databases that all run on the same server
There are nearly 1000 stored procedure with a couple hundred of them using references to one of the other 8 databases €“ a couple hundred cross database procedures
All update and record maintenance is performed within the context of the stored procedures; presently, only the login used by the application can execute these procedures
Presently, we can segregate the ad hoc users from the stored procedures because the ad hoc users have a login that is distinct from the application login
Application roles are not usable because of all of the cross database queries and stored procedures; therefore, database roles are used instead of application roles
The problem that I see with trying to go to windows authentication here is that the moment I go to windows authentication I lose the ability to segregate the application stored procedures from the ad hoc users. It seems to me that when we switch to Windows authentication that there is nothing to prevent the ad hoc users from using windows authentication instead of SQL authentication to do any ad hoc work. If this is the case, I see nothing to prevent them from using the stored procedures. Yes, I could grant the users seperate SQL authentication logins, but this still doesn't prevent them from authenticating using windows authentication.
It appears to me that in this case that the moment I change the way that the application authenticates to the database to windows authentication that the ad hoc users get an €œauto upgrade€? to update permission with their ad hoc logins. It would be great if I could keep the users with their read-only group privileges and use application roles to augment their privileges through the application; however, the application roles really only work for a specific database and all of these cross-database stored procedures cause me a big headache with respect to application roles.
To me it looks like modifying the application to use windows authentication is going to create a big security hole that did not previously exist. Does it look best in this situation to stay with SQL authentication? Is there a way out of this problem? I need suggestions.
Somewhat baffled,
Dave
Hi, all...I have a sizeable database running under Oracle 9.2.0.4 under AIX5.2.0.I am faced with an impending move to a Windows environment, runningunder SQL 2000.Currently, we are heavy users of shell scripts, for exports, backups,etc.I am looking for viable scripting options under W2K/W2K3.

We€™re receiving the data as flat files, when I open up the file in notepad the characters look like the error€™d examples (see below). Open the file up in a texteditor where you can apply code page 1252 it display the characters correctly, which is expected behaviour!
I use SSIS to load these files into my database, applying the correct code page€¦
€¦however the data gets loaded in the incorrect form. Plus the database is collation €˜SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS€™ which is code page 1252 so I can€™t see why I am getting these issues.
This is an example of the Umlaut (German chars) issues were getting, they€™re appearing in the database like this€¦.

I think it€™s a bug with SSIS, I know having a Unicode file would certainly solve this but I don't have that option.
I'm outputting a file from a mySQL server that contains 1 column thathas input it many languages. The base definition for the column isUTF8.I output the data into a flat file and bcp it to a sql2000 server, andthe multi-byte data does not survive the translation.Any ideas on how to input a UTF8 flat file into the server using BCP?I've tried the -n -N -w options -- no luck.thanks,ed

By changing the properties of Flat-file connection I am able to create file with encoding as utf16 or western-European, but not UTF8. What may I be missing?
The code page is set to '65001' for UTF8 and when we uncheck the UNICODE check box then the file generated is "Western European" and If UNICODE checkbox is checked then the encoding is UTF16.
Please help me to generate flatfile with encoding as UTF8.
I have an issue when generating a flat file with SSIS.
Here are the steps:-
1 .Create a a package and Data Flow task in it.
2. In the Data Flow Task, insert an OLE DB Source and a Flat File Destination
3. In the OLE DB Source , specify this query :- "select '000' as [record code]"
4. In the Flat File Desitnation, create a new Flat File Connection specify the path and choose Code Page "65001 (UTF8)"
5. I've specified the Data Type "Unicode String DT_WSTR" in the Advanced property
When I execute the task, I get this error :
[Flat File Destination [16]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "record code" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
I've also chosen the data type "Unicode Text Stream DT_NTEXT" and "string [DT_STR]" but I get errors such as :
"The code page on intup column [record code] is 1252 and is required to be 65001."
The Locale I am using is English(US).
Would be grateful if test can be done for all other data types such as int, datetime, float, decimal, uniqueidentifier, etc.

Hi There,
I'm using C# to get a value for a DOUBLE precision variable, called "Length", from a textBox using the following line:
Length = Convert.ToDouble( txtLength.Text )
I'm also using the following lines to prepare my stored procedure call:
arParms[9] = new SqlParameter("@Length", SqlDbType.Decimal, 5);
arParms[9].Value = record.Length;
My stored procedure has the following parameter definition:
@Length decimal(9,3)
My problem is that if someone types a value bigger than 999999 in the textbox he will get for sure the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Error converting data type numeric to decimal.
I don't know how to either make sql or C# to truncate the value or catch the exception to automatically assign 0 to the parameter.
Please Help.

Hi all,
My organization have a web-based application and needs it to support multilingual so we will be adapting our app to use unicode. However, one of our problems is to convert existing data from text to ntext. I couldn't find anything that document this. What is the best way to do that? I would like to be able to migrate the data from an existing text column to another ntext column in the table.
I brief you about my system, I used List manager system to store the messages and distribute to all members. Right now,by design the Lyris system keep the message in the text field which mean it 's not support multilanguage directly because of unicode field. We needs to create new Db which has the data structure as same as Lyris but just one difference is keep the message in unicode format (ntext) which we need the sql script to automatically update the new record get from Lyris to new DB.
If I can't do that, what are the options? If it's possible, I would like to be able to do this in sql script.
Thanks a mil, in advance.

hi,
can any one tell me how to convert my access data to sql server data. using sql server express edition
Having a slight problem. For whatever reason I had a column setup for nvchar but the only data i have in there is dates (MM/DD/YY) and a whole bunch of NULLs. I wanted to change the datatype to datetime but it gave me an error. I thought it was due to all the NULLs, so I removed all the nulls. It still doesn't work. I get the error : Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string.
I don't belive its because I have the data in mm/dd/yy format. I created another table and populated it with mm/dd/yy data as nvchar (50) and then converted to datetime and it worked fine.
any ideas?
I've inherited a monster database that needs updating. It has a field called Birthdays that has been a text field and I want to convert it to datetime. The data entry people have been sloppy from time to time and some of the values generate errors when you try and change datatypes. Is there a way to change the datatype and have the oddball values left blank without bombing out the conversion process?
Thanks
I am using SQL 6.5 and we are going to upgrade to SQL 7. Has anyone

I am populating tables with Columns of fixed length (of a text format)
from a different table with some Columns of Money ( DataType).
It would not allow me to populate these Columns.

I am writing a stored procedure that generates a computername for new workstations. Our naming standards, based on terminal ID's, are as follows:
'R' + X + Y + ZZZ, where 'R' is the letter 'R', X is a hex digit indication a locatoin, Y is a hex digit indicating business line, and ZZZ is a hexadecimal sequential number assigned within each location/busines line, for up to 4096. (This isn't a perfect naming standard, but is an improvement over the one that preceded it and is a requirement for our legacy applications).
I can do everything fine, and calculate the sequential number using an int. Once I have the new number, I am trying to convert the integer to a varbinary, then convert that to a string, then use RIGHT to get the rightmost three characters of the hex string.
set @SEQNUM = 4095
set @HEXSEQNUM = CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM)
PRINT CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM) -- displays 0x00000FFE etc.
PRINT 'HEXSEQNUM ' + @HEXSEQNUM -- displays 'HEXSEQNUM'
Any ideas? I am very new to TSQL...
Hi Folks!
I have the following sql script I wrote using Explicit Option to convert data from SQL Server tables into a single XML file. I am aware of the tedious nature of the select statements, but this seems to the only option I have to depict parent-child nature of the data in XML format and also to schedule it as a job to run via SQL Server Agent.
My problem is that as I run this using the following command, I get "There is insufficient system memory to run this query" error.
I am using the following commnd:
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'bcp "EXEC swr_cv2..sproc_BuildXMLTree" queryout "C: est.xml" -U -P -c -r -t'
Is there any way I can tune my query to fix that error?
Thanks so much for your help!

Hi,
I have two postcode databases in .sql ready to dump into my existing database, the first sql file is 300megs and
the second one is 300k, the reason the second is so small is because it misses out the last 3 letters of the post
code, i dont need theese last 3 digits anyway.
Basically i want to convert the second file so that it is compatible for me to import it into my database and use.
the first file looks like this
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101GY',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1476,-2.0975);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101NP',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1467,-2.1074);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101RQ',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1467,-2.1107);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101TT',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1431,-2.114);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101WX',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,0,0);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB106AA',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.135,-2.1156);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB106DE',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1377,-2.1173);
And the second file looks like this:
insert into `hwz_postcodes` values ('postc',0,0,0,0),('AB10',392900,804900,57,-2),('AB11',394500,805300,57,-2),('AB12',393300,801100,57,-2),('AB13',385600,801900,57,-2),('AB14',383600,801100,57,-2),('AB15',390000,805300,57,-2),('AB16',390600,807800,57,-2),('AB21',387900,813200,57,-2),('AB22',392800,810700,57,-2),('AB23',394700,813500,57,-2),('AB25',393200,806900,57,-2),('AB30',370900,772900,56,-2),('AB31',368100,798300,57,-2),('AB32',380800,807200,57,-2),('AB33',355200,815100,57,-2),('AB34',350800
Is there any utility out there that can do this for me? What about the co-ordinates systems, they look incompatible,
so the converter would need to be able to convert the co-ordinates aswell. It would also need to add in all those nulls.
once the file is converted i would then import it through the sql command line.
Why am I such an SQL n00b!???
hi guys how can I change this format
date|amount
02/25/07| 00.00
02/26/07| 00.00
To
date|amount
02/25/07| 0.00
02/26/07| 0.00
