Create Output File In A Specific Layout - Extra Spaces Between Fields
Mar 17, 2014
I'm trying to create an output file in a specific layout. For some reason my output file is adding an extra 10 spaces between the Account Number and the Check Number in the statement below. The rest of the output file looks fine. Where the extra 10 spaces are coming from? I need 1 Filler Space between these fields.
SELECT DISTINCT
CASE p.PaymentMethodID WHEN 10 THEN 'I' WHEN 60 THEN 'V' WHEN 50 THEN 'S' ELSE 'I' END
+ CONVERT(CHAR(1), '')
+ (REPLICATE('0', 20 - LEN(ba.AccountNumber))+ CONVERT(CHAR(20), ba.AccountNumber))
+ CONVERT(CHAR(1), '')
+ (REPLICATE('0', 18 - LEN(p.CheckNumber)) + CONVERT(VARCHAR(18), p.CheckNumber))

I'm using the following command:
osql -E -n -d testdb -i testquery.qry -o "c:Scriptsoutput.txt" -h-1 -w 500 -s ","
With the following query (testquery.qry):
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT table1.column5, table2.column9
FROM table1, table2
WHERE table1.column4 = table2.column4
AND table1.column1 != "NULL"
ORDER BY table1.column5
All of the columns are cast as char up to 50 characters.
Even if only a field has a few characters, I get a lot of extra white space in my output. I want to get rid of those trailing spaces. I've tried SET ANSI_PADDING OFF, RTRIM(), and CAST(x AS VARCHAR(y)). I still get the same output. What am I doing wrong, what am I missing?

Hi!
I need to sync an application on windows mobile 5 that uses sql server mobile with sql server 2005. I've tried Merge and it populated the tables on the server with new fields and triggers. Does RDA do the same thing?

I have some fields in my database that are char(50)
I use an insert to put some text into the fields (using perl)
when I look at the fields I find that spaces are used to "pad out" the text to the field size.
This didn't happen with MySQL and PHP, is there any way to disable this?

I am downloading a webpage as a text file in order to read a specific string to assign it as a variable/parameter in order to create an output file name. I would like to know how would I be able to look for a specific string and output as another variable for the rest of the package.
2015 Conforming Loan Limits
------------------------------------------------------------------------
o _Loan Limits for Calendar Year 2015--All Counties _[XLS]
</DataTools/Downloads/Documents/Conforming-Loan-Limits/FullCountyLoanLimitList2015_HERA-BASED_FINAL_FLAT.xlsx>_ ,
_[PDF]
</DataTools/Downloads/Documents/Conforming-Loan-Limits/FullCountyLoanLimitList2015_HERA-BASED_FINAL.pdf>_
o _List of 46 Counties with Increases in Loan Limits for 2015
[Code] ...
To explain it a more better way, I have a sample webpage text here. I should be searching for "FullCountyLoanLimitList" appended by the current year (like FullCountyLoanLimitList2015) and copy the entire file name in the text file and assign it to another variable so that I can download that specific file using WebClient connection.

Problem: I need to export data from a table in a database. I have an SSIS that converts data to this table. To export the data using the SSIS the file needs to be already created (from my understanding). This export location is on another server and the folder location is empty.
Question: How do I create an empty CSV file at this location using either a Script Task, SQL Query, or Space Magic? I have been searching all over for about 4 hours now to no avail.

I have designed an SSIS package and in a data flow task I've defined my source and destination components and mapped all the fields. The task works fine as long as I have the same number of fields in my CSV file as what I have defined in the task.
The issue is that if my CSV contains more fields than what are declared in the mapping, then the extra fields at the end of each line are concatenated into the last column defined in my map. For instance:
CSV SQL
Product -> Product
M0 -> M0
M1 -> M1
M2 -> M2
This works fine, but if my CSV file looks like this:
Product
M0
M1
M2
M3
M4
The values in fields M3 and M4 are concatenated with M2 and all 3 are imported into field M2 in my sql table. Any ideas?

Hi,
Whenever I insert a record into my table it adds trailing white spaces up to the amount of char's that the field is set to allow. Obviously I don't want it to do this.
Among other problems then when I get the data back out it has a ton of white spaces, which normally wouldn't be a problem. i could just use the .Trim() function, but for some reason when I bind the data to a drop down list and use the .Trim() function it doesn't trim the white spaces.
Anyways any ideas on how to make it so the white spaces don't get put in in the first place?? Or any other thoughts on this?? Thanks!

For some reason, there are extra trailing spaces being added to all my
data as it is placed in the db. I am collecting information from,
processing a TRIM-like function in javascript, and then again in the
ASP.net code before it is being placed in the db.
The extra spaces are causing problems with my application.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I want to add 3 spaces at the end of each row for the result of a query.
The initial query being output to a text file (USING DTS) is:
select colA, colB =
CONVERT( CHAR(15), TableX.ColB )
from TableX
------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUT WHEN I EXPORT THE FOLLOWING (USING DTS), I GET THE SAME RESULTS
select colA, colB =
CONVERT( CHAR(18), TableX.ColB )+char(32)+char(32)+char(32) -- ' '
from TableX
Replacing the char(32) with ' ' (3 spaces in quotes) doesn't help.
Any ideas of how to append the 3 spaces after each record when exporting to
a text file using DTS??
Thanks

I have a record in an Excel format (Excel 2010) and I would like to bulk import that into SQL Server 2008 and also while importing, SQL Server will automatically create a new table based on the header fields or row of the source file.
I am not sure if SQL Server 2008 has this capabilities.

Hello Everyone,
I've seen many entries about trailing spaces but have not found one like this.
In the Control Flow I am using an "Execute SQL Task" to populate some SSIS local variables (type string) by: (1) executing a SQL stored proc with output variables (type varchar(100)) to (2) be mapped to the local variable name (the parameter mapping Data Type is VARCHAR).
One of these mapped outputs is used as a path for subsequent operation in the Control Flow. At execution the sproc fires, populating the local variable with the path but with trailing spaces out to 255. Later in the "Script Task" when that path is used I receive an error telling me that the path is too long, and something about 260 or 246 characters.
Here's the oddity. I have two desktop environments running XP and a server environment (server 2003). This package runs just fine on the server - no trailing space issue, no need to trim. But on both my desktops I get the errors. By adding trim statements I can get back the correct path, but varchars should not be including trailing spaces, and the sproc return variable is a varchar (100).
I know this soulds like numerous other posts which indicate the solution is to trim, but I think the question I am asking is why does it work on the server but not the desktop? Is the SSIS variable type string experiencing a bug on different OS's?
Not to further complicate the issue but it used to work on my laptop, but through a horrible sequence of events I had to reload the studio in which case the error started to happen on that too.

WHERE TABLE_NAME> @TABLE_NAME
AND TABLE_NAME = 'sales'
SELECT @AUDIT_TABLE = 'Audit'+''@TABLE_NAME''
SELECT * INTO @AUDIT_TABLE
FROM @TABLE_NAME
TRUNCATE TABLE @AUDIT_TABLE
ALTER TABLE @AUDIT_TABLE ADD UserAction Char(10),AuditStartTime Char(50),AuditUser Char(50)

SQL Server 2008 R2. SQL Server Management Studio 2016 CTP2. I am looking for a tool where I could create and save a nice graphical layout of some tables in a database and their relation to each other (how they join or connect). I get something like this in the Query Editor, where it shows the fields and joins of tables as I select them. However, I cannot save this representation to show say in a PowerPoint or Word document (Visio, etc.).
Is there a tool that would enable me to create a nice document showing my tables and their relationships, which would also allow me to annotate each table with notes about the fields, etc.?
I searched and found a reference to "Visual Database Tools" which is supposed to be part of Management Studio 2016. However, I cannot find such a set of tools listed anywhere in my menus.

Hi, Apologies in advance if you get confused by reading this.... I am trying to create an additional step in the Create Wizard User Control that is provided by ASP.net. The additional step that I want to add will come after a user will create their username, password, email etc. The information which I want to save in the extra step are details such as firstname, lastname, address, height, weight etc. (I am creating an online weight management system for dieticians).When I run through the application, the username, password etc save perfectly to the database, but nothing happens with the other "personal information". There are no errors thrown so I don't know where the problem is coming from.I have included the code below as I have it:The code behind the Register.aspx file is as follows: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="InsertExtraInfo" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1 %>" InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [aspnet_UserInformation] ([first_name], [surname], [address1], [address2], [city], [country], [number], [height], [weight]) VALUES (@txtFirstName, @txtSurname, @txtAddress1, @txtAddress2, @txtCity, @txtCountry, @txtNumber, @txtHeight, @txtWeight)" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1.ProviderName %>"> <InsertParameters> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtFirstName" Type="String" ControlID="txtFirstName" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtSurname" Type="String" ControlID="txtSurname" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress1" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress1" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress2" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress2" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCity" Type="String" ControlID="txtCity" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCountry" Type="String" ControlID="txtCountry" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtNumber" Type="String" ControlID="txtNumber" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtHeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtHeight" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtWeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtWeight" PropertyName="Text" /> </InsertParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>
Then the code I have behind the Register.aspx.cs page is: protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e) { TextBox UserName = (TextBox)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("UserName"); SqlDataSource DataSource = (SqlDataSource)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("InsertExtraInfo"); MembershipUser User = Membership.GetUser(UserName.Text); //object UserGUID = User.ProviderUserKey; DataSource.InsertParameters.Add("UserId", UserGUID.ToString()); DataSource.Insert(); } I know there is a problem with the code on the aspx.cs page but I cant figure it out. I need the username / password information to relate to the personal details information. I know I have to create a foreign key in the asp_UserInformation table that will link to the username in the asp_Membership (where all the username / password info is stored) Any help will do, I'm almost in tears here!!!The Spud

I was in the process of creating additional TempDB.ndf files, and received an error saying they already exist. I checked the location and it was empty, nothing to see here. So I looked in sys.master_files and there are several tempdb files listed in various locations, all of which come up empty.
So the files are listed as online in sys.master_files, but they do not exist on the server. I restarted SQL services but it did not change anything.

Afternoon,
I've got this security database that needs to create a login name using first initial and 7 characters of the lastname. No problem.
I wrote this:
select
CASE WHEN LastName like '%.%' then
LEFT(FirstName, 1)+left(replace(LastName,'.',''),7)
else
LEFT(FirstName, 1)+ LEFT(LastName,7)
end as UserID
from Security.dbo.tblUserInformation
The replace and case functions I used to get rid of the '.' Like the name St. Clair now I get "GSt Clai" I need it to also get rid of the space but am stuck. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
