Hi,I have a large table with a 'datetime' column that has date and timevalues in it. The data is in this format:2007-10-02 09:54:00.000The table is called 'profile' and the column 'msgdate'I want to return only rows that match a specific date. So far I havethe following query working:select * from profile where msgdate like '%2007%'This returns all rows that start with '2007'. However I cannot seem toge the syntax that will allow me to return a specific date, e.g.2007-10-02I have researched this, trying all sorts of queries with escapecharacters/sequences because of the dash character, but I cannot getit to return anything. Most of my queries have ran without error, itsjust that no data is returned.James
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I create a Report Server Project Using Visual Studio 2005 with SQL Server 2005 I can create a data source with no problem and the test shows it is good good.
When I next create a report and go to the query builder using that same data source and click on the query builder button I see the Query Builder screen, but there is no toggle button in the top left of the screen so I cannot go into the graphical mode to see the tables.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Visual Studio and SQL Server but I still have the same problem. What should I do to get the button visible on the screen?
Can anyone help?
If I start a long running query running on a background thread is there a way to abort the query so that it does not continue running on SQL server?
The query would be running on SQL Server 2005 from a Windows form application using the Background worker component. So the query would have been started from the background workers DoWork event using ado.net. If the user clicks an abort button in the UI I would want the query to die so that it does not continue to use sql server resources.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I am using SQL Server 2000 and I get this error.
I get the following error when I attempt to run DTSRun from the command prompt:
C:>DTSRun /S (local) /U sa /N "ACPAY_New" /R "ThedaCare1"

What I have done is created a package called ACPAY_New and saved the package
in two places, the SQL Server and the Meta Data Services (Repository). The
name of the Database is ThedaCare1, the name of the server itself is local or rrojas, the user name is rrojas. I have no idea as to what this error message
means. If I run the job in SQL Server Agent, the job does not run at all.
If I run the package on it's own within Data Transformation Services, by
right clicking and execute it runs fine.
Please help.
Thanks,

Hi!
I run a query that returns strings that look like this: 08-07, 06-07,04-05 etc. But when I copy the query outuput from Management Studion in SS2005 into Excel 2003, strings get converted into custom dates such as 8-Jun, 9-Jul, 4-May etc in Excel. Is there anthing I can do in T-SQL to prevent this conversion? The strings are set as char(5) datatype in a T-SQL view.

Hi
I have been running service broker between 3 initaitors and a single target witha forwarder for some time.
Everything works 100%, i use persistent conversation and all queues and transmission_queues are clear. Everything works 100%.
However while running profiler on the forwarder i see the following errors every now and again. Actually every time a message succesfully gets to central i see this error:
On the forwarder: Broker Connection: EventSubClass 4 - Closing :
An error occurred while receiving data: '64(The specified network name is no longer available.)'.
Database ID 1 : master:
ObjectName : tcp:11.45.101.100 - this is the target
i sometimes see the exact same error with a initiator IP.
I am very confused becuase everything is working 100%, queues and transmission queues are all clear.
Why do i see this error ?
Thanx
when i do a bulk insert with dashes (i.e. one - two), i get the character u with two dots above it ( Ü ) in place of all the dashes? can't seem to figure out why. the field terminator is a comma ( , ).
i'm inserting just text with dashes into char(75) field.
can someone explain and provide a solution? i would greatly appreciate it!
my script is quite simple, maybe i'm missing something.
Code Snippet
bulk insert testtable
from '\localc$adjust.txt'
with (fieldterminator = ',')
thanks!
Ok. Here is a weird problem.
I have a package which contains a variable with the value of a UNC sharename. The hostname in the share contains dashes.
I am trying to create a SQL Agent entry to execute said package. Because the package is now in production I want to pass in a new value for the sharename variable. I use the SQL @@SERVERNAME variable to build the package command. (Notice the BlotterUploadFolder variable at the end.)
SELECT @command = N'/FILE "\' + @@SERVERNAME + 'PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=' + @@SERVERNAME + ';Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;\' + @@SERVERNAME + 'ManualBlottersUploads'
If I print the @command variable right after setting it, I get what I expect.
/FILE "\PRD-NY-DB-01PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=PRD-NY-DB-01;Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;\PRD-NY-DB-01ManualBlottersUploads
If I cut-paste this into cmd window and execute it with DTExec.exe the package works fine. But when I run the schedule task it causes an error. When I go into the Job Properties dialog to look at the step, I see the value (in the "Set values" table) set to \PRD instead of \PRD-NY-DB-01.
If I modify the SELECT command above to put double-quotes around the value, the value is correct in the Job Properties dialog but causes an error when I exec it with DTExec.
/FILE "\PRD-NY-DB-01PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=PRD-NY-DB-01;Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;"\PRD-NY-DB-01ManualBlottersUploads"
causes the error
Option "-NY" is not valid.
Hopefully somebody has an idea of what is going on.
Thanks.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHello,I have had a request, one of our tables is used as a report and I have beenasked that all fieldnames for months have dashes in them,like Jan-05 instead of Jan05 and so on...Now what we have is a CURSOR which loops through all values in another tablegenerating these fieldnames, like 'Jan-05', Feb-05' etc..Then the table definition is modified so these months display as fieldnames.That is fine,Except later it calls another stored procedure which inserts values fromanother table into this one.INSERT INTO TableNameSELECT *FROM TablenameObviously this is failing because the newly amended table now has dashes inthe fieldnames now.Now as the fieldnames are created dynamically I cannot simply do INSERTTablename ([Jan-05], [feb-5]) etc, as one would normally do,How could I do this bearing in mind its not always going to be 12 months weuse,Basically I am asking how can I modify this INSERT statement so it takesinto account the fieldnames with dashes in themBearing in mind I don't know what the fieldnames are called as they arecreated dynamically by a CURSOR in a different routine.And its not always 12 months.have you any ideas?and the dashes are requiredJayne

Server Error in '/menu' Application.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error:
The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.
If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database.
Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.
The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

Using the "set values" tab, I am trying to set the values of package variables to strings that contain spaces and/or dashes. If I run the package using the integrations services server, it runs perfectly. If I schedule the package on SQL Server agent, I get the following error.
"Executed as user: GBPSQLServer. Microsoft (R) SQL Server Execute Package Utility Version 9.00.3042.00 for 64-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1984-2005. All rights reserved. Option "-restofstring" is not valid. The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed."
Looking at the command line generated by the SQL Agent interface, the value is quoted using double quotes like this:
/SQL "PackageName" /SERVER SQL1 /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /SET "Package.Variables[LogFolder].Value";"\remoteservernameinetpub he-restofstring
estofstring" /REPORTING E
It seems that the command line parser is not recognising the quotes, or maybe the slashes are throwing it off, or sql server agent is doing something funny to the command line before it executes it.
Anybody got any ideas?

I hope I am not asking about something that has been done before, but Ihave searched and cannot find an answer. What I am trying to do is torun a query, and then perform some logic on the rowcount and thenpossibly display the result of the query. I know it can be done withADO, but I need to do it in Query Analyzer. The query looks like this:select Varfrom DBwhere SomeCriteriaif @@Rowcount = 0select 'n/a'else if @@Rowcount = 1select -- this is the part where I need to redisplay the resultfrom the above queryelse if @@Rowcount > 1-- do something elseThe reason that I want to do it without re-running the query is that Iwant to minimize impact on the DB, and the reason that I can't useanother program is that I do not have a develpment environment where Ineed to run the queries. I would select the data into a temp table, butagain, I am concerned about impacting the DB. Any suggestions would begreatly appreciated. I am really hoping there is something as simple as@@resultset, or something to that effect.

I executed the code successfully and I got a box which asked for "Enter the query string".
I typed in the following: EXEC dbo.SalesByCategory @Seafood. I got the following box: Query attempt failed. Must declare the scalar variable "@Seafood". I am learning how to enter the string for the "SQL query programed in the subQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnQuery.Click" (see the code statements listed above). Please help and tell me what I missed and what I should put into the query string to get the information of the "Seafood" category out.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
