i have trouble while insert/update a field which contains double-byte characters (Chinese Traditional).
NO PROBLEM if i m using Enterprise Manager to view/edit the data. They are retrieved properly in the following:
(1) Enterprise Manager
(2) Query Analyzer
(3) Visual Basic
(4) Command prompt isql
EACH of the Chinese words are become a qustion mark '?' if the UPDATE SQL or stored procedure executed in the following:
(2) Query Analyzer
(3) Visual Basic
WHILE (4) Command prompt isql does not have the problem for the same UPDATE SQL and stored procedure.
I had a situation that required me to set up SQL Server to do full text search against both English content and Chinese content. I am not sure if it's achievable in SQL server environment. Any help is appreciated.

Hi, I have a problem importing data from SQL Server 2000 'text' columns to SQL Server 2005 nvarchar(max) columns. I get the following error when encountering a transfer of any column that matches the above. The error is copied below,
Any help on this greatly appreciated...

I am performing a series of calculations where accuracy is very important, so have a quick question about single vs double precision variables in SQL 2008.
I'm assuming that there is an easy way to cast a variable that is currently stored as a FLOAT as a DOUBLE prior to these calculations for reduced rounding errors, but I can't seem to find it.
I've tried CAST and CONVERT, but get errors when I try to convert to DOUBLE.
For example...
SELECT CAST(1.0/7.0 AS FLOAT) SELECT CONVERT(FLOAT, 1.0/7.0)
both give the same 6 decimal place approximation, and the 6 decimals make me think this is single precision.
But I get errors if I try to change the word FLOAT to DOUBLE in either one of those commands...
Every night we connect to a remote server using Linked Server and copy details from that database to a loading table, then load it into the 'real' table in our own environment. The remove database we load it from has indexes/primary keys that match the 'real', however the 'loading' table itself does not have any indexes or primary keys, both are SQL Server 2005 machines.
In the loading table we first of all truncate it then do a select insert statement from the remote server, then we then truncate the 'real' table and load iit from the 'loading' table.
The issue is when we attempted to load it into our 'real' table from our loading table there was a duplicate row, and our process failed with a Primary Key violation.
I checked the source with does have the same primary key's in, it did not contain a duplicate row and I checked the loading table and that did contain a duplicate row.
My question this is in what circumstances this could happen ?
Hi people,I have a little problem with this!There are some variables in C# code: int personID = 10; string personName = "Tom";
System.IO.BinaryReader reader = new System.IO.BinaryReader(FileUploadPersonPhoto.PostedFile.InputStream);
byte[] personPhoto = reader.ReadBytes(FileUploadPersonPhoto.PostedFile.ContentLength); After that, there is a SQL query: string query = "INSERT INTO PersonTable (PersonID, PersonName, PersonPhoto) VALUES ("
+ personID + ", '" + personName + "', " + personPhoto + ")"; In Debug mode, value of the query is "INSERT INTO PersonTable (PersonID, PersonName, PersonPhoto) VALUES (10, 'Tom', System.Byte[])" and it does not work! Is there any prefix or something else that I should put and make it work?Thank you in advance!P.S. Do not want to use sql parameters at this piont!
I have a binary column with length 20 in SQL server table. I store dynamically C# byte[] value range from 0 to 19. So for example, If I store length of 16 and when I try to retrive it back into byte [] in C# it returns whole length 20. When I see in debug it has value from 0 to 15 which I want to use but from 16 to 19 is zero. How can I get just length value which I stored.
I use DataRow to get whole row and from the row object I extract byte [] based on column name.
I need some help working with CLR UDTs. I have created two UDTs called trajectory and point. Each trajectory consists of a list of points. Each point consists of three members : lon( type double), lat( type double) and datetime.
I have written my own IBinarySerialize.Write method for the trajectory type which is the following:
Dim maxSize As Integer = 4000 Dim value As String = "" Dim paddedvalue As String
Dim i As Integer Dim pt As Point
For i = 0 To point_list.Count - 1
pt = point_list.Item(i)
If i = 0 Then value = value & pt.X & "|" & pt.Y & "|" & pt.D
Else
value = value & ">" & pt.X & "|" & pt.Y & "|" & pt.D End If
I have a bigint column called "MillisecondsSince1970" that I need to convert to a date - SSIS is erroring out when I use DATEADD with the 8 byte int (if I use 4 byte it works but the column is bigger than 4 byte). The error is really lame:
[Derived Column [79]] Error: The "component "Derived Column" (79)" failed because error code 0xC0049067 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "Date" (100)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
Anyone have a way around it... a VB.NET equivalent of DATEADD or something else I can do?
Can we regenerate a .rdl file based on the byte[] stream created by Render method?
user sends the report name with parameters to application server and it is application server sends the request to Reporting Server and get the report back (Render method). But how to pass the returned byte[] stream to user and show her/him a report?
I have followed many examples found on this site, but still get an invalid cast execption when I attempt to run code below. the exception is thrown when I try to convert the sql image to a byte[] in the download section of the code.
//upload file private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { //Get the filename of the pdf file to be uploaded. string strFilename = File1.PostedFile.FileName.Substring(File1.PostedFile.FileName.LastIndexOf("\") +1);
//Get the file type string strFileType = File1.PostedFile.ContentType;
//Get the file size int intImageSize = File1.PostedFile.ContentLength;
// Reads the Image Stream ImageStream = File1.PostedFile.InputStream;
byte[] ImageContent = new byte[intImageSize + 1]; int intStatus = 0; intStatus = ImageStream.Read(ImageContent, 0, intImageSize);
I want to store some double byte characters in a table. Originally I planed to change all data type of fields which will store double bytes from VARCHAR() to NVARCHAR(). But i just found out we have no problem to pull and store foreign content(double byte characters) in fields with VARCHAR type( the content is showing correct after stored in database)
my question is : if VARCHAR can handle double byte character, what's the point of using NVARCHAR to store unicode character? any advice is appreciated.
Just wondering if anyone knows if you can create a certificate from a byte[]. For example, you can create an assembly using CREATE ASSEMBLY FROM 0x...; specifying the hex representation of it - can you do the same with a certificate? This means that you don't need to save the file to disk before loading it into the database.
Hello, I'm having users upload documents to my db and storing them as an Image datatype, I can do that without an issue. I'm also able to find that record and return it as a byte(). Now, what's the best practice/scheme to return it to the browser, even FF, and have it prompt the user with the Open or Download thing Dialogue we all know and love.
I've created a DTS package -- that uses a query to export to a .txt file. My question is -- if the results of this query are zero (no results returned within the package ) -- how can I tell the package not to export a zero byte file. Any thoughts on that? Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
i'm trying to read an image file from a database(ms-sql, .mdf) with type image. Anyone have any ideas on how to do this? I have a table adapter created but could not assign it to my byte[] variable. Thanks in advance.
Hi, I'm a bit new to DTS but the problem I have encountered relates to importing a text file. On occasion the file is zero bytes which causes an error in DTS. I have added some VBScript to the workflow to check the filesize. If size > 0 then I set Main = DTSStepScriptResult_ExecuteTask otherwise Main = DTSStepScriptResult_DontExecuteTask. This all works fine except that when the file is 0 the dependent process that is waiting for completion/success does not run, presumably because the task was not run (as reqd). I have tried setting the status rather the DontExecuteTask but then the task runs anyway creating the error. Anyonw know how to get this to work or how to get around the problem?
Why can varchar datatype variable only 4000 byte? For example: in a storedprocedure declare @aa varchar(8000) ...... while select @aa=@aa+@otherinfo end when the length is more than 4000 ,the data in the behind will be lost
Hi,I have a .NET application that I want to save the Config.EXE contentsto my SQL database for remote review/testing. This config file is3700+ bytes long. I created a field in one of my tables with a VARCHAR4800 and then created a stored procedure that receives a parameter(also VARCHAR(4800).However it fails to write anything if the length of the value that Ipass is anything greater than 900. If I pass exactly 900 characters orless - the data is written to the field. If I pass 901 characters Iget nothing.I'm suspicious since it is exactly 900. I seriously doubt it's somelimitation of MS-SQL so I need a nudge in the right direction.Thanks
Given a 4 byte integer, how to extract each individual byte and format with a period separating them? As an example, if MSB is 1, followed by 2, then 3 then 4 then how can the four bytes from this integer be formatted and displayed as 1.2.3.4?
I have an Excel spreadsheet that I eventually land into my staging table. In between, I'm attempting to get a date code from the Date table. I'm using a Lookup Transformation Editor and mapping the fiscal week of year and fiscal year name. I know the fiscal year name is fine. When I have both the fiscal year name and the fiscal week of year, the package fails on the lookup step. In a data conversion, I convert the fiscal week of year to a single byte unsigned integer. (In the Date table, the fiscal week of year is a tinyint.) I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?
I€™ve inherited a project from one of the guys on our team who will be out sick for a while. He developed two for marshaling data between System.Drawing.Image and System.Byte(). He€™s storing the byte array data in a database image field.
I€™ve retrieved the byte array data from his database image fields and have successfully converted them to images using his ConvertByteArrayToImage method below. I have also converted and image to a byte array with his ConvertImageToByteArray method below and succfully stored the data in a database image field. However, when I retrieve the byte array data that I stored in the database the last line in his ConvertByteArrayToImage method throws an exception (Parameter is not valid). I€™ve not been able to find a working copy of his code that€™s storing the byte array data. Does anyone see anything I€™m overlooking?

Hello all, I was trying to run a test to write a ebcdic file out with a comp - 3 number (testing this for other people) and have run into a problem writing the string out to the flat file destination. I have the following script component:
Code Block
' Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services user script component ' This is your new script component in Microsoft Visual Basic .NET ' ScriptMain is the entrypoint class for script components Imports System Imports System.Data Imports System.Math Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper Public Class ScriptMain Inherits UserComponent Public Overrides Sub CreateNewOutputRows() ' ' Add rows by calling AddRow method on member variable called "Buffer" ' E.g., MyOutputBuffer.AddRow() if your output was named "My Output" ' Output0Buffer.AddRow() Dim myByteArray() As Byte = {&H12, &H34, &H56, &H7F} Output0Buffer.myByteStream = myByteArray Output0Buffer.myString = "ABCD" Output0Buffer.myString2 = "B123" myByteArray = Nothing End Sub End Class
I have added myByteStream as a DT_BYTES length 4, myString as (DT_STR, 4, 37) and myString2 as (DT_STR, 4, 37) to the output 0 buffer.
I then add a flat file destination with code set 37 (ebcdic us / canda) with the corresponding columns using fixed width.
When i place a dataviewer on the line between the two the output looks as I expect ("0x12 0x34 0x56 0x7F", "ABCD", "B123"). However, when it gets to the flat file destination it errors out with the following:
Code Block [Flat File Destination [54]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "myByteStream" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
If i increase the size of the byte stream (say, to 50) the error goes away but I am left with the string "1234567F" instead of the appropriate hex values. Any clues on how to go about this? I obviously don't care if it gets transferred to "readable" text as this is supposed to be a binary stream, thus the no match in target page seems superfulous but is probably what is causing the problems.
NOTE: this is relating to the following thread (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2300539&SiteID=1) in that I am trying to determine why these people are not seeing the "UseBinaryFormat" when importing an EBCDIC file (i see this fine when i use an ftp'd file, but it auto converts to ascii) with comp-3 values. I also see the "UseBinaryFormat" when I am importing a regular EBCDIC file which I create that has no import errors with zoned decimals.
Hi,I'm using c# with a tableadapter to call stored procedures. I'm running into a problem where if I have over a certain byte size or number of parameters being passed into my stored proc I get an exception that reads: "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized." If I remove one parameter, the problem goes away. Has anyone run into this before? Thanks,Mark
Now what i have to do is i need to make sure that ID,Name,City,County,Phone is there in flat file. if it is not there then i have to send mail to client saying that file is not valid.
Let me know how i will do it.I need to also calculate the size of flat file.
How many result-rows does mssql return should be used asynchronous method to use mssql cursor, can get the best performance in any time in any result offset?
i want to make the cursor fast in any time whatever how many results returned
i was planning to create a database migration tool .. its a certain database of a DMS (document management system) to another DMS (two different DMS)... from DMS using msde 2000 server .. and tranfer to a DMS using a postgre sql or mssql .. depends ..
they have different table structures and names . . :D
i was thing of what language shall i use.. or what language is the best to work on this kind of project :)
