LinqDataSource Using Enum In Where?
Dec 30, 2007Not sure where the best place to ask this question is so I will ask it here. I am trying to use the LinqDataSource ASP.NET 3.5 control and am having a problem with using the Where attribute. I have a field that I want to filter on that is an Enumeration, however if I try to put the integer value in the Where attribute the page will not compile. How do I use enum values in the Where attribute?
I have something like this:
public enum EventType{ Charger = 0, Location = 1, Scanner = 2}
I want to filter the LinqDataSource like this:
<asp:LinqDataSource ID="DataSource1" runat="server" ContextTypeName="MyDataContext" Table="Events" Where="EventType = 2" />
This won't work. The EventType property is an instance of the enum type above.

Storing Enum Types In SQL
Jan 21, 2008I have an asp.net custom class which has a property using Enum types. For information, it is an "orders" class and the property is "status", with types:
OrderStatus.OpenOrderStatus.CompletedOrderStatus.CancelledOrderStatus.Refunded
each order is stored as a row in a SQL database table. How can I store the Enum type in the database?
I assume that I could have an integer column with values 0 - 4 and convert to and from the integer/enum type each time an order is read or written, but it would be much better if I could store the enum type somehow without having to convert.
Any ideas?
Enum The Running SQL Instances Using DMO
Feb 12, 2008Hello,
I want to enumerate all the RUNNING SQL instances[in a mixed env where SQL 2000 and SQL2005 are deployed] using SQL DMO.
But any of the following methods would not help
ListAvailableSQLServers Method
ListInstalledInstances Method
because they list all the installed instances and while my intent is getting only the running instances.
Is there any other direct API ? Pls advise.

Any MySQL ENUM Eqvivalent In MSSQL?
Aug 28, 2006Hi,
Can't seem to find a similar data type in MSSQL like the one very handy ENUM type existing in e.g MySQL:
... Enum('on','off','standby') ...
It's also a convinient way to check for true/false. I'd appreciate any suggestions on possible "workarounds" or sources that might point me in the right direction.

Numeric Datatype To Ssis Variable Datatype Conversion Problem
Apr 24, 2008
Good afternoon,
I have an issue with an ssis variable datatype.
The scenario is as follows:
I have a stored procedure:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_newTransaction]
@sourceSystem varchar(50),
@txOut NUMERIC(18,0) OUTPUT
AS
insert into scn_transaction (sourceSystemName) values(@sourceSystem);
SELECT @txOut = @@identity
Whose purpose is to perform an insert into a table and return me the identity value of the inserted record, which I'll then use throughout the rest of my package. The identity column in the inserted table is numeric(18,0).
I execute the stored proc with the following sql with an OLE DB connection manager:
exec sp_newTransaction ?, ?
The first parameter is a string variable from earlier in the package, and the second is the output parameter. I have the following parameter mappings to the execute sql task:
User:ystxId output numeric 1 -1
User:ourceSys input varchar 0 -1
The proc is correctly called, and the row insesrted, however I get a type conversion error when SSIS attempts to map the return parameter to my package variable... I've tried all sorts of combonations, and can't seem to get it to execute.
At one point I wasn't returning a numeric, but rather an int from the stored proc, and all was well until I went to use the variable in a derived column later in the package, and the type was converted quite incorrectly (a 1 was 77799789080 or some such), indicating a type conversion error likely related to the encoding of the number.
I'd like to keep the datatypes as numeric and make ssis use those - any pointers are greatly appreciated as to what type my package variable should be to allow proper assignment of a sql server numeric type to it.
Thanks much,
B

View 3 Replies View RelatedASP, SQL Server And Currency Datatype...
May 13, 2005Hi,
I've just created an ecommerce website using ASP and SQL Server 2000 - on my development machine (WinXP Pro, IIS, SQL Server 2000) the SQL Server datatype for the price field is Money - however, the datatype on my hosts SQL Server is Currency (there is no Money datatype available??)
Now, the problem is this: on my local machine I enter a price of say 99.99 - this shows up on the front-end & in the admin area as 99.99, no problem. Now, on the live server when I enter 99.99 it is somehow converted to 9999 - if I enter 99,99 (with a comma) it shows correctly as 99.99 - however, when I go to edit the price it reverts to 9999...does anyone know what is going on here? Why is it converting 99.99 to 9999??
Please let me know if you need more clarification of the above.
Many thanks,
Peter

How Do I Load SQL Server XML Datatype Into XmlDocument In C#
Feb 22, 2007Hi there,
How do i load a XML document saved in SQL server as a XML data type into
XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();xdoc.Load(// INTO HERE );
I can load a xml file saved to disk but haven't figured out how to retrive from a recordset. I have tried the following:
XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();xdoc.Load(GetXmlFile(pnrID).ToString());
public string GetXmlFile(int pnrID){
SqlConnection cnn = null;SqlCommand cmd = null;
string XML = "";
try {
cnn = new SqlConnection(); cnn.ConnectionString = "Server=;Initial Catalog=;UID=;PWD=;"; cnn.Open();
string selectQry = "SELECT [XML] FROM [TEMP_PNR] WHERE PnrID = @PnrID";
cmd = new SqlCommand(selectQry, cnn);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@pnrID", pnrID);
SqlDataReader rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
if (rdr.Read()) XML = rdr.GetSqlXml(0).ToString();
}
catch (Exception ex) { throw ex; }
finally { cmd.Dispose(); cnn.Close(); }
return XML;
}
But this genereates the following error: Could not find file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDESystem.Data.SqlTypes.SqlXml'.
Any idea how i can achive this?

Field Datatype Conversion In SQL Server 7
Apr 30, 1999Can anyone tell me how to calculate datatype conversion times in SQL Server
7? I have a varchar (15) field that I tried to convert to integer using
the table design GUI in Enterprise Manager. The table holds about
72,000,000 records about 1k apiece in size.
It's been running for about an hour now with no seeable results. In
Performance Monitor I don't see any page reads happening, so is this
indicative that the process died? Enterprise Manager is no longer
responsive - even if I open another session.
I'd like to know how long I can reasonably expect this conversion to take.
Also, how can I abort this request safely if I want to?
Thanks for any insights.

SSIS Ntext Datatype And SQL Server Destination
Sep 11, 2007
Hi folks,
We have a nice issue here. We are running SQL 2005 Dev edition Service Pack 2 and we are trying to copy the contents of one table in a local sql server database to another table in another database on the same local sql server. We use an oledb source and a sql server destination. The table structure is exactly the same. One column is of the datatype ntext, when we try to load the contents the package will stop with the error:
OnError 11-9-2007 14:38:24 11-9-2007 14:38:24 00:00:00 The attempt to send a row to SQL Server failed with error code 0x80004005.
OnError 11-9-2007 14:38:24 11-9-2007 14:38:24 00:00:00 SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED. The ProcessInput method on component "<TABLE>" (3382) failed with error code 0xC02020C7. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
OnError 11-9-2007 14:38:24 11-9-2007 14:38:24 00:00:00 SSIS Error Code DTS_E_THREADFAILED. Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC02020C7. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the thread has exited.
OnError 11-9-2007 14:38:26 11-9-2007 14:38:26 00:00:00 SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E07.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E07 Description: "Error converting data type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP to datetime.".
OnError 11-9-2007 14:38:26 11-9-2007 14:38:26 00:00:00 A commit failed.
Removing the column from the sql server destination will result in loading the complete table. Using an oledb destination instead of sql server destination fixes the problem. Is this a bug in the SQL server destination component?
Thanks,
Marc
SQL Server 2005 - ROWVERSION With Datatype Timestamp
May 28, 2008
Hi,
i wanted to read some datasets from a table with the ROWVERSION. Then i wanted to save these records with the ROWVERION- Column in a temp table. Now it seems i cant explicitely write data in a ROWVERSION Column. As i understand its only possible to write a default value in such columns. Only SQL Server itself can write into ROWVERSION columns.
Am i right with this meaning?
Thx in advance...

Querying A TEXT Datatype Column In SQL Server 2000
Jan 17, 2008HI,
I'm trying to implement a site search. The only problem is that some of the pages have more than 8000 characters (like the press release pages) so I had to use the TEXT datatype (sql server 2000). I wrote a simple stored procedure to query the column, however it does not return any results. I'm assuming this is due to the fact that it is the TEXT datatype. ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated. Code below:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_SiteSearch
@keyword text
AS
SELECT PageText
FROM tbl_Pages
WHERE PageText LIKE '%@keyword%'
GO

Mar 27, 2000Hi,
on a migration from access 97 to SQL Server 7.0 columns in access like 'hyperlink' are converted to datatype 'text' on the SQL Server 7.0.

Does anyone had the same problem an possibly have a resolve?
