Hi everybody,
In SQL Server is there a quick way to automatically insert empty value instead of NULL? I have a long Insert-SQL command with LEFT JOIN and don't want to use ISNULL for every field.
Researching on this in the meantime myself and I believe there is no way.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I'm seeing a problem with printing very long strings using the PRINT
command on a VARCHAR(MAX) variable. After a certain amount of
characters the string is truncated....it looks like the limit is at
around 8,000 characters.
Does anyone know of a solution or a workaround for this?
i am using visual web developer 2005 and SQL 2005 with VB as the code behindi am using INSERT command like this Dim test As New SqlDataSource() test.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DatabaseConnectionString1").ToString() test.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text test.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO try (roll,name, age, email) VALUES (@roll,@name, @age, @email) " test.InsertParameters.Add("roll", TextBox1.Text) test.InsertParameters.Add("name", TextBox2.Text) test.InsertParameters.Add("age", TextBox3.Text) test.InsertParameters.Add("email", TextBox4.Text) test.Insert() i am using UPDATE command like this Dim test As New SqlDataSource() test.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DatabaseConnectionString").ToString() test.UpdateCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text test.UpdateCommand = "UPDATE try SET name = '" + myname + "' , age = '" + myage + "' , email = '" + myemail + "' WHERE roll 123 " test.Update()but i have to use the SELECT command like this which is completely different from INSERT and UPDATE commands Dim tblData As New Data.DataTable() Dim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True") Dim Command As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM try WHERE age = '100' ", conn) Dim da As New Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(Command) da.Fill(tblData) conn.Close() TextBox4.Text = tblData.Rows(1).Item("name").ToString() TextBox5.Text = tblData.Rows(1).Item("age").ToString() TextBox6.Text = tblData.Rows(1).Item("email").ToString() for INSERT and UPDATE commands defining the command,commandtype and connectionstring is samebut for the SELECT command it is completely different. why ?can i define the command,commandtype and connectionstring for SELECT command similar to INSERT and UPDATE ?if its possible how to do ?please help me
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All,
i am using a OLE DB Source in my dataflow component and want to select rows from the source based on the Name I enter during execution time. I have created two variables,
enterName - String packageLevel (will store the name I enter)
myVar - String packageLevel. (to store the query)
I am assigning this query to the myVar variable, "Select * from db.Users where (UsrName = " + @[User::enterName] + " )"
Now in the OLE Db source, I have selected as Sql Command from Variable, and I am getting the variable, enterName,. I select that and when I click on OK am getting this error.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E0C.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E0C Description: "Command text was not set for the command object.".
Can Someone guide me whr am going wrong?
myVar variable, i have set the ExecuteAsExpression Property to true too.
Please let me know where am going wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Is there a SQL command that will change a Date&Time string to just a Date?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
Yesterday, we have had a sudden load in our SQL Server 2000 which resulted in several locks. There was not too much time to investigate as we had to rush. A team member had reviewed the processes in EM, Manegement, Current Activity. Looking for blocking processes and killed them.
She told me that as soon as the blocking SPID was killed, another one arose and she had to repeat the operation a dozen of time. When done, the server activity was back to normal. She noticed that more than half of the blocking processes showed that they executed the stored Proc "P_SearchProducts".
We don't own the server and the information on what had happened at that time (batches or resource intensive operations, etc.) is not available for now.
The team suggests that we set the Transaction Isolation Level to Read UNCOMMITTED for this SP. I would like to know better about locks before I go ahead.
P_SearchProducts returns 5 recordsets each one could contains from 1 to 200 rows. To achieve the results, it creates about 10 intermediate tables (SELECT ... INTO #TableX) these temp tables are then used progressively to arrive to the final results. Roughly the volume of these temp tables could be double than the final results. The developer who wrote this SP is not a guru in SQL, there is room for improvement. But here are my questions:
Q1. Could the series SELECT ... INTO #TableX in P_SearchProducts prevent or lock another connection from executing the same SP? If yes, under which conditions?
Q2. Let's assume that P_SearchProducts has a slow execution time. Could it prevent another connection from updating the Product table? And thus leading to a deadlock situation? Something like another transaction (by User2) has obtained lock on most of Product tables, except the Product table which were being slowly read by User1 executing P_SearchProducts. But User1 cannot read the other product tables b/c there are locks by User2.
Q3. If the contention issue was provoked by the slow execution time of many request to exec
P_SearchProducts (let's assume there were suddenly 50 users on the web hitting the search product feature at the same time). Could the Read Uncommitted magically resolve the contention issue, providing we accept the consequences of the dirty read.
Sorry for the long post and thank you in advance for any help.
I am using SQL Server Compact Edition and I get an exception when running a query with a LIKE-operator which parameter is a string with length greater than 256 characters.
Has anybody had this problem? Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks.
Hi there, I'm having a problem when I insert a string (from C#) which is 167 characters long. The field in SQL Server Express is a varchar(250), but the string gets cut of somehow at 150 characters.
Why does this happen?
The table and stored proc I use are defined like this:
USE [Test]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[tblImage] Script Date: 05/18/2006 10:42:27 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblImage](
[imgID] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[persID] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[imgPad] [varchar](250) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spInsertImage]
@persID BIGINT
, @imgPad VARCHAR(150)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
INSERT INTO tblImage ( persID
, imgPad )
VALUES ( @persID
, @imgPad)
END
Does anybody know what is going on?
Thanks,
Starik
Any way to parse out a text value (not varChar, using text data type) that is > than 8000 characters long? I'm looping through 1 big string passed to the DB that is pipe delimited, but I find myself needing the substring function to keep track of which segment I'm acting on (after an update, I then need to take that segment and remove it from the string)...but the subString function won't take anything larger than 8000 chars.
Say I have this string that is text data type...
'aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|....'
..and so on, surpassing 8000 char length, how could you parse it out using the pipes as the delimter, then do an Update using that segment? Afterward, return to that string and find the next segment, then use it, and so on (in a loop). I tried using an update to set the string = replace(string, segmentJustUsed, '') to "erase" it, but replace can't take text as the datatype. Any help? Hope this isn't to confusing.
Say I have a column called 'NAME' in a table called 'CLIENT' and the values in NAME are Surnames or company names like:
NAME
----------------------
1-FOR-ALL
A.B. SMITH (TOOLS LTD)
BROWN
THOMSON
VW CAR SALES
I want my select to return the first 3 characters, excluding special characters (only characters between 1 and z).
In example, the following would be returned for the data above:
NAME
----------------------
1FO
ABS
BRO
THO
VWC

Hi,
I am very new to using SSIS.
Trying to import data from MS Access 2000.
I receive the error "
[OLE DB Destination [1907]] Warning: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column "GENDER" with a length of 255 to database column "GENDER" with a length of 2. " on the source flow.
I have done some googling and came up with this post: http://torontosql.dotnetnuke-portal.com/Default.aspx?tabid=32233 which I thought may help, but it does not.
The query against the access datasource features the column: iif([sex]=1, 'm', 'f'). I tried using left(..., 2) as well, but SSIS is determind to treat the field as 255 characters for some reason.
I don't even particualrly care that the field is 255 chars and the sources is only two, I just want the data in! I have other fields coming up with similar error.
Can someone please advise?
PS, what is th significance of the "External Columns" Vs "Output Columns" on the Input and Output Properties tab in Advanced Editor?
I am really struggling with SSIS, it is not as intuitive as DTS.

Hi !
Does anyone know the sql-statement to check the actual length in a varchar2 columns.
For example in Oralce you can do this
select length(column_name) from table;
I want to check that a program hasn't been wriiten the whole column with spaces.
Does anyone know if there is any possibility to create a copy of a table in the database something like:
create table table_copy as select * from table;
I have found the backup table tool kind of unreliable !

Hi,
I have 5 columns in a table called B. 2 of it is Time and User.
how do i add the all the time for an user and insert it into a table called C with columns User and Totaltime? For example,
Table B
Time......User
0.2........A
0.2........A
0.3........B
0.4........B
so my table C should be as follows,
Table C
User....Totaltime
A...........0.4
B...........0.7
use
sp_attach_single_file_db 'DBname' ,'MDF File'
can you pls. give me step by step instruction how to use this commnd,
to attach the mdf file only without log file and data file
