i have a problem with copying (read it from one row and set it to another) a ntext field in a stored procedure. I know how
to get a pointer to the data and how to read from it.
But i want to copy the whole data.
Does anybody know how to do that?
Thanks in advance

Hi, I've been reading all sorts of info on the ntext field. I needthis to store xml documents in sql server via a stored proc.Because of its size, I apparently can not use SET (as in UPDATE)therefore I'm trying to do an INSERT of the row with this field (afterdeleting the old row).CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateXmlWF(@varWO varchar(50)@strWF ntext@varCust varchar(50)@varAssy varchar(50))ASINSERT INTO tblWorkOrders (WorkOrder, Customer, Assy, xmlWF) VALUES(@varWO, @varCust, @varAssy, @strWF)I'm using MSDE so I can't tell what's wrong...it just won't save theproc.PLEASE HELP!Thanks, Kathy
I have a third party application with a ntext field that I need to parse the data out of. The data looks like this: <xmlF><FNumber type="int">2421</FNumber><AttachmentPath type="string" /><RequesterId type="int">232</RequesterId><Requester type="string">John Smith</Requester><RequestDate type="DateTime">3/24/2008 11:23:27 AM</RequestDate</xmlF> The fieldname is Data and the tablename is ProcessData Again, this looks like xml, but the field type is ntext. I would like to create a view displaying the parsed data in fields. How would I go about parsing the data? Thanks.

I have the stored procedure snipet below that will work for returning a dataset that I need. But, if I change NVARCHAR to NTEXT as the field response is, I get the error: The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid for local variables. CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.mySP@errCode INT OUTPUT ASBEGIN DECLARE @guid uniqueidentifier DECLARE @response NVARCHAR SELECT @guid = guid, @response = response FROM myTable SELECT guid, response FROM myTable Like is said, seems to work ok for now, but what if the info in the field is bigger than 4000 length as the max nvarchar can handle? Thanks, Zath
Greetings all! I'm writing a small content management program for a website that I'm putting together. One of the critical aspects of this projects is that users want to be able to cut n' paste from Word in to a FreeTextBox control and save it to the database. Well, we've run in to some problems. These entries are running well over 4000 characters, and I'm going to have to use an ntext datatype in order to the field to accomodate the amount of text they want to post. My input stored procedures work great and it's dumping it well in to the table. But the problem I'm having is with the output. Apparently, you can't pass the values to an output parameter or reference the field directly in a stored procedure. I've scoured the internet and purchased several books just to deal with this issue. Can someone point me in the right direction or offer some examples of getting ntext data out through a stored procedure? I'm in a real squeeze here. TIA Matt
I'm using DTS to import data from an Access memo field into a SQL Server ntext field. DTS is only importing the first 255 characters of the memo field and truncating the rest.I'd appreciate any insights into what may be causing this problem, and what I can do about it.Thanks in advance for any help!
I copied a database using export wizard, but that doesnt copy the stored procedures in the database. I know that dts needs to be used to copy stored procedures, but can someone give me a bit more explanation on how this is to be done? Any help is greatly appreciated.
How to copy only some stored procedure from dev server into prod server in sql server 2005? Should I use import/export wizard or copy database wizard? Thanks in advance.
Hy , How is the stored procedure, to copy from a table to others tables? I have a stored procedure which is doing that, but for 1 registration : " insert into....". So i want for each registration in the source table to execute this procedure and put the data in my format table.
This is the start of the procedure that creates the test_new.txt file. I want to copy the test_new.txt file and name it test_new1.txt. Any help is appreciated. thank you
Can u please tell me how to copy data from table A(database A) to table B(databaseB) which table A contain 10 fields but table B consist of 11 fields. I have to insert current date and time into another field in Table B (which has extra field compare to tableA) automatically every hour or so. Please help. Thanx
Maybe a stupid question but I'm new to the db admin work so please bear with me.
I've imported an Access db into SQL, in the Access db the field type was 'memo' to accomodate the large amount of text (on avg ruffly 4100 chars. with spaces). Now in SQL the field in the table I have set up as an ntext field, which I understood to be equivalent to a memo field in Access.
My problem is when saving data to the field the first time it saves all the data correctly with the exception of the field in question. The data in the field is '<LongText>', now when I try to update the data in the table I get a 'Data Truncated' error message and no update takes place throughout the table.
After testing this and trying different things, I've found that if I shorten this one field and try to save to the db I still get the 'Data Truncated' error message. If I shorten the data in the field AND delete the record from the SQL table then it will save just fine from there on out (which won't work for the reports).
I'm not sure what I'm missing here to get this to work the way it did in Access.
I've got a weird one here. I'm running a DTS package on SQL Server2005. It copies a bunch of stored procedures. I renamed them on theoriginating server and ran the DTS again.The came over with the old name and code!I deleted the DTS and built it from scratch, and the same thinghappened.I ran SELECT * FROM sys.objects where type = 'P' on the source serverand the names were correctI'm explicitly checking which sp to copy rather than using Copy all. Ican see the sp namesI've deleted and recreated the sp on the source server using scriptsI've checked the source server nameI've Refreshed everywhereNothing worksWhy is up_Department_GetAllBySchool trying to be be pulled over whenit doesn't exist?Why is up_Department_GetBySchool not being pulled over when it doesexist?I've heard that SQL 2005 pre-SP2 has a problem where renaming anobject that has a text definition (like sprocs, functions, triggers,views) doesn't update the definition. So if you pull that objectdefinition and run it into your new database, it will use the originalscript, which has the original name.I ransp_helptext 'up_Department_GetBySchool'and checked the CREATE statement at the top. Sure enough, it had theold textI asked our NetAdmin to install SP2 on our server. Then I ransp_refreshsqlmodule 'up_Department_GetForSchool'and got this error:Invalid object name 'up_Department_GetAllForSchool'.So even the code which was supposed to fix it, doesn't. Has anyoneelse had this problem, and managed to fix it?--John Hunter
Loading thousands of records to the DB through bulk insert. There's one field NText which I have left NULL because it will be hard to gen dummy flat file to it.
I have another table which has the Ntext Value which i will want to copy and duplicate to the other table.
what is the way to do it?
simply said i want to update a record with NULL value from one table with NText field with the value from another table..
I am trying to view all the ntext from a profiler trace. The data istruncated at 256 and I am not sure why... The max length is 1820 viathis command:select max(datalength(textdata)) from "monitor forms usage"where textdata like '%gforms%' .I then issueset textsize 8000select (textdata) from "monitor forms usage" where textdata like'%gforms%' and datalength(textdata) >1800and still only 256 is returned. this is true even if I redirect theoutput to a file.Any ideas on how a humble man like me can see all of the data.Mike--Posted via http://dbforums.com
I'm trying to parse an ntext field that in my SQL View contains an invoice comment in order to be able to group on parts of the comment. I have two problems--one, the syntax to do this, and two, the best way to deal with the parts that I want.
The comment is like: "standard text ABCDE : $99.99" but can have multiple "ABCDE"s, e.g. "standard text ABCDE FGH IJKL $999.99" and I found some that had duplicates like "standard text standard text...". I want to be able to report in SSRS 2005 by grouping the "ABCDE", "FGH", "IJKL" items.
Any ideas? Please be specific as I'm still learning.
The title says it all. I've used ALTER DATABASE, and ALTER TABLE...ALTER COLUMN to change all my character fields from 'Compatibility_42_409_30003' to the default I want ('Latin1_General_CI_AI') on databases converted from SQL7. Now I just have these ntext fields to change...
Here is the example data <qMultipleChoice><qText>The%20AE%20understands%20what%20conditions%20the%2 0Account%20Manager%20is%20allowed%20to%20sign-off 20on.</qText><qChoice>Strongly20Disagree</qChoice><qChoice>Disagree </qChoice><qChoice>Agree</qChoice><qChoice>Strongly%20Agree</qCh
I want result look like this First Column:The AE Understands what conditions the Account Manager is allowed to sign-off. Second Column: Strongly Disagree Disagree Agree Strongly Agree
This is what i had so far Select (SUBSTRING(QuestionText, (PATINDEX(N'%<qText>%', QuestionText) + 7),(PATINDEX(N'%</qText>%', QuestionText) - (PATINDEX(N'%<qText>%', QuestionText) + 7)))) From tblQuestion
my result: The%20AE%20understands%20what%20conditions%20the%2 0Account%20Manager%20is%20allowed%20to%20sign-off%20on.
I have problem with replace '%20' and how to make the second column. Any Help? Thanks Shan
My Stored Proc runs through a loop and concats the contents of each field into one big nvarchar. Procedure works fine on a smaller scale but now it is being implemented on a very large table and the results of the sequel overflow the nvarchar limits. I looked into using text and ntext but both cannot be declared locally. Does anyone know how I can work aroudn this limitation?
Summary:The problem is that the temporary variable I am using (nvarchar) is too small to contain the robust size that the SQL is concating into it. The final field it winds up in is a text field and will be able to handle the amount of data, its just getting the data there is the issue..... Your thoughts please....

Hello, I have around 7 ntext fields in my data base table and I am getting data from the data base table through executing stored procedure, But when I am displaying data using record set, few of the ntext fields in recored set are empty .Iam sure that these are having data in table. I am not sure why recordset is lossing that ntext field data?Because of this I am unable to display that data in web form. any ideas really appriciated. Thanks Ram
I am having an interesting error. I have a bunch of data that I am updating to a field in my sql server 7.0 database. It updates the data, however only puts the first 64,999 characters into the field. The datatype is ntext. From what I understand, ntext datatype can hold much more than 65,000 characters. Am I right in this? The data I'm putting into the field is html tags/text. I've tried several different data sets. I'm updating the data using Coldfusion/SQL commands.
Here is my SQL syntax:
UPDATE htmltest SET html_offline = '#form.html#' WHERE htmlid = #form.htmlid#
Hello,I have a stored procedure: -- Get an individual league match by IDALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[mb_League_GetLeagueMatchByID]( @LeagueMatchID int)ASSET NOCOUNT ONSELECT * FROM mb_LeagueMatch WHERE mb_LeagueMatch.LeagueMatchID = @LeagueMatchIDThe mb_LeagueMatch table has a column named IsActive that is a bit datatype.The value for all rows is set to true (in database explorer in visual studio 2005).When I execute the above stored procedure I always get -1 (I'm guessing that means null) as a result for IsActive if it was true and 0 when false (as expected).However, when I run a query on the database for the same parameter, I get the expected 1 as the value for IsActive.Has anyone seen this before?Thanks,Howard

I am writing a utility that creates Java code to access a database. I am looking for a way to get a list of fields and types that are returned by an sproc. Is there any easy way to get this from the master? Do you need to parse the SQL? This list would be like what Visual Studio.NET shows, or interdev if I remember correctly.
