I am using sp_helptext to generate script of stored procedure. However someone said sp_helptext loss something if stored procedure is big. That means the script is not completed. Is it true?
Thanks

Hi,I am executing a call to "sp_helptext" from a web service, in order toobtain the text of a stored procedure. The call itself seems to be ok buteventually it throws an exception saying that the specified object does notexist in the database - which is a false statement, i've checked carefully.I probably do not have enough rights to access something from the ASPNETaccount.Do i have to login as "sa"? Is this the only solution available?Bogdan.

Hello,
This might be a very basic problem. I have two SSIS solutions. I was able to build SSISDeploymentManifest for one solution, but not the other. When I press BUILD, it does create dtsx in bin folder but I do not see any Deployment folder created nor manifest file. What did I do wrong?

I am wondering if there is any sense to create indexed views on single table? I simple want to improve the report query performance as most of the reports data are from a single table. As views most of the time are created as for joined across tables.
Thank you very much for your advices and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.

Dose SQL Server Integration Service support Farsi (Persian) language?
I passed a column of a Farsi text database to Term Extraction component put it didn't send anything to output (destination).
I even use CodePageConvert (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9E56417E-23D1-4FD3-8D6D-61314FAA2DE3&displaylang=en) between Source and Term Extraction, it seems that it converted the text but still nothing comes from the Term Extraction.
Sample input for Term Extraction component:

As I am creating the non-clustered indexes for the tables, I dont quite understand how dose it really matter to put the columns in the index key columns or put them into the included columns of the index?
I am really confused about that and I am looking forward to hearing from you and thank you very much again for your advices and help.

After rebuilding my SQL 6.5 server and restoring all of my drives I noticed that the mssql/data direcory didnt properly backup. I reinstalled SQL, applied SP5a, recreated my device and databases, and then replaced my dat files from my restores. The only database that I am affraid of is my Master. I can run Queries successfully against all my databases successfully. Is there anything else I need to do or should be worried about? I might be able to restore the master from a backup done earlier yesterday morning. But dont want to unless necessary.
Thanks in advance.

I am using SQL Server 2005.
I am trying to import data from CSV files into an SQL Server table using the Import wizard. The text qualifier is double quotes ("), column delimeter is a comma (,), first row has column names. One of the field name is "id", which is a GUID, whose datatype in SQL Server is uniqueidentifier. It looks like this in the file:
..."data","data","dbf7edf8-0ca8-4e53-91e3-5901cdc1819a","data"...
As you can see, there are no enclosing curly braces for the guid value. The DTS chokes on this and throws this error:
The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data
If I add curly braces like this {dbf7edf8-0ca8-4e53-91e3-5901cdc1819a}, it imports with no problem.
Is there way to import this type of data, because there is no way I can edit these files, and I would prefer not changing the datatype of the id field?
Or is this a limitation of SQL Server?
Thanks,Bullpit
I use SQL2005 EE to capture the "In Progress Data" from the Devices and have connected it to the Main server-SQL2005 SE thro linked Server. I Run a Job that updates the Main server and Clears the "in Process Data".

Hi All,I'm trying to track down a mysterious problem we're experiencing inwhich updates and inserts to tables in our mssql2k server appear to be'disappearing.'To explain our situation:We have a web page (written in ASP, if that's relevant) on which weaccept enrollment information.When that page is submitted, the form data is passed to a storedprocedure on our mssql2k server, which performs several operations,all of which are wrapped in a transaction.In particular, the stored procedure performs an update operation on arecord in one table (i'll call it TableA) and an insert into anothertable (TableB).If the procedure encounters a problem (ie after each update / insertoperation in the procedure we test for IF @@Error<>0) it performs arollback, performs a select similar to the one immediately below, andthen RETURNs.SELECT '1' as error, 'Unable to update TableA' as errormsgIf the procedure doesn't fail any of the @@Error tests, thetransaction is committed, and a membership number is SELECTed to bereturned.SELECT '0' as error, @memnum as membershipnumberThe @memnum variable is populated within the transaction.Back in the ASP page we test both for the proc returning an emptyrecordset, or for it passing an explicit value in the error field, andpush the page to an error page if either of these conditions are met.If, on the other hand, none of these conditions are met, and themembershipnumber field in the recordset is populated with a validmembership number, we push to a confirmation page.This confirmation page receives the membership number in a sessionvariable, performs a SELECT against TableB (the table that receivedthe insert during the proc) using that membership number in the WHEREclause, and the resultant recordset is used to populate theconfirmation details on that page. That recordset is also then used topopulate the details of a confirmation email, which is automaticallysent by the confirmation page.And now here's our problem: we've become aware of a handfull of peoplewho have gone through the enrollment process, have received theconfirmation email containing the information they supplied asexpected, but the data appears to be entirely missing from our tables.By that I mean that the record in TableA does not appear to have beenupdated (under normal circumstances that record should have hadseveral flags set, and several other fields updated with informationsupplied by the person enrolling), and the record in TableB does notappear to have been inserted.In essence, looking at our tables, it *feels* like the transaction inthe stored procedure for that particular enrollment hit a problem andwas rolled back. However, the evidence that we have in the form of theconfirmation email argues strongly that the data must have existed inour tables (particularly in TableB), if only for an unknown period oftime.We're kind of at our wit's end to work out what is going wrong withthese enrollments. From my understanding of transactions (and I couldwell be wrong) any changes to data (ie updates, inserts etc) containedwithin are essentially 'invisible' to any other operation (ie theSELECT that happens in the confirmation page) until the transaction iscommitted, implying that the effect of the update and insert shouldhave been 'permanently' successful if no error code is received and ifa valid membership number was returned. I ask, because someone in ourteam has suggested that maybe the operations in the transaction'lasted long enough' in the tables to have been visible for the SELECTon the confirmation page to have worked, but were then subsequentlyrolled back, explaining why the confirmation email is appropriatelypopulated and why the data then appears to be missing. However, as Isaid, this doesn't match my understanding of how transactions behave.Sorry for the length of this post, but I felt it was best to explainthis as best as I could.Does anyone have any advice they can give us on this situation? ie,are there any known problems with operations in transactions 'bleedingover' into tables, but then being rolled back at some later point?Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on how we can furtherdiagnose this issue?Truly, any help will be immensely appreciated...Thanks in advance,M Wells
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a FoxPro dbf that includes From Milepost (f_mp) and To Milepost (t_mp) fields. These fields contain values between -1 and 9999.9999.
I don't have FoxPro installed, but when I attach the dbf to Access, I see the fields defined as datatype Double.
I have a SQL table that I'm trying to import the dbf data into. In that table the two fields are defined as datatype Real.
When I execute the task, it fails at the first milepost value with 4 digits to the left of the decimal point.
I read up on datatypes, then redefined the milepost fields as Floats, but nothing changed.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

we had setup merge replication on 2 db servers. For some reason, the subscription started failing a month back with the error " invalid object sysmergexxxx on the subscriber. I did a reinitialize and now all the changes on the subscriber which werent synced got deleted. I have tried all 3 log recovery tools with no luck. Is there any hope of recovering data. the last backup on the subscriber was a month ago.
I've searched the threads and didn't see anything which seemed to fit this specific issue....
I have a Data Flow task which reads from an OLE DB Source (SQL Server 2005), uses a Data Conversion transformation to convert some field values, and finally outputs the result to distinct tabs of an Excel workbook. The task is failing with the following error:
There was an error with input column "oBBCompanyName" (2162) on input "Excel Destination Input" (57). The column status returned was: "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
Using the Advanced Editor for the Excel Destination component, I examined the datatype of oBBCompanyName (ID = 2162) in the Input Columns list of the "Excel Destination Input" (identified with ID = 57). The Data Type is defined as DT_WSTR with Length = 255. The ExternalMetaDataColumnID = 203.
Also in the Advanced Editor for the Excel Destination, I examined the datatype of BBCompanyName (ID = 203) in the Extranl Columns list of the Excel Destination Input. The Data Type is defined as "Unicode String [DT_WSTR] with Length = 255.
What could I be overlooking that might be the root cause of this issue? The same error is occurring for different Excel Destination tasks in the data flow.
Kind regards,

was trying to performance tune a query and came up on this weird issue(Weird to me atleast.. possibly because I am a newbie:-))).
When I run the query mentioned below, I get the results in 1 second, while the same query, if I declare a variable for the value I am comparing, it takes 40 seconds. I am on SQL Server 2000. Both queries are being run in the same DB on the same tables and the only difference between the two is that the date has been declared as a variable. I am able to consistantly reproduce this. Tried casting the variable, declaring it as varchar , replacing the date by getdate() at both places, but the moment I use the variable, the performance goes for a toss. Has anyone came across any similar issues?
TIA

We have setup transactional replication across several databases using SQL Server 2000 spread across multiple sites in a fully connected network. There is one main table from which data is replicated from the publisher to the destination. Horizontal filtering is being used on this table to enable sending/routing of the records to the correct DB(site). It has been observed that the documents/records are getting lost between some sites. Say 10 documents are being sent fron the publishing database but only 5 are being received at the destination database although the sent history for all the 10 documents is available at the publishing database.
Can anyone guide on how to analyse and resolve this problem? Can unreliable network be the issue, If the network is not reliable and the connection is lost during replication how does replication ensure that no data is lost?
Hi,
I am getting the error below in my Flat File Source.
I've seen this error many times before, and have successfully resolved this problem in the past.
However, this time it's a little different. It's complaining about row 7 of myFile.csv, column 20. I have column 20 defined as a Numeric(18,6). It also maps to the Price field in the table, which is also a Numeric(18,6).
The problem is, on row 7 of myFile, column 20 is blank. That is, there's no data for row 7, column 20.
So, why should it care about this?? If it's blank, then how can you lose any data?? I have several other blank columns in this file, but they aren't throwing any errors. Just this one.
Thanks

Hi,
I am transferring data from SQL Server 2005 to SQLAnywhere 9. Dates and numbers are sucessfully transferred but chars and varchars are not coppied. Though there are values in SQL Server 2005 table they are shown as blank on SQL anywhere. I cannot undestand data loss
Is this a code page problem or data size? for example a varchar 20 data type is in both sql server and sql anywhere Sybase. SQL server is in 1252 and sql anywhere 1253
Thanks.
Hi
I am having a bit of a difficult trying to understand this one. I had imported two tables around 2-300 rows each ran this in 64 bit scheduled it and it ran okay. I now introduced a 3rd table which if I change the true64bit to false it will run however if left true it keeps mentioning the output column of descr with a loss of data.
I did move it to 32bit and then ran the package it comes up as below. If I rememeber I can run this in 32bit mode which I'm sure will work hmm maybe!! but what I can't understand is why it works for two tables? is it something to do with the translation of the table or do I need alter the select statement?
Currently it is a select *
