Upon entering data into the database, my fields fill the entire length specified.
For Example a name field with char type and allocated for 50 spaces when entered with SAM returns SAM and 47 spaces. When I have to modify the record, I need to first delete the 47 spaces. Any ideas as to why this is happening or what I can do to alleviate the problem? This happens with all types and lengths.
Thanks.
In C#, when I'm using an SqlDataReader to run a simple select query and use the values returned I have a question about referencing the field values.
There seem to be a large number of "Get" type methods (i.e reader.GetValue(int i), etc.) All of them (that I have found so far, require the use of the index of the field (GetValue(0) is the first field and so on).
Is there a way to use the actual name of the field? (i.e. GetValue("myField"))? This helps code readability but the big reason is that changes to the underlying field list can completely hose up the application.
I know there are such functions in VB, but I just can't seem to find the equivelants in C#.
Dear Friends,
I have an OLE DB Command inside an ETL. I want to execute a stored procedure that returns 2 fields, for example:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_Name
AS
SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM Table
How can I continue the dataflow? How can I return the values from the query? Returns only a row...
Hi,
Can we validate the returned order of fields from a stored procedure? Infact, i am taking a query as user input and extracts the results based on the query but for that order of fields specified in a query is important.
Can i check the order after the query is run i.e if this is entered "select field1,field2,field3 from table" then i need to check the order of the resultset generated. I can't check the query before the resultset is generated because a user can enter bunch of queries.
Any way will work, tsql or .net app.
Thanks,
Hi,
Summary: When my stored procedure uses temporary tables then the TableAdapter won't be able to work out the field names and so won't work. I get an error in the TableAdapter configure wizard saying: Invalid object name '#TempTable'.
I'm not doing anything unusual so this must be a common problem. Let me explain:
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2000.
Detail: I've written a new stored procedure (SP) that uses a temporary table in calculating the resulting results set (several fields with several rows). I recon the temporary table bit is significant.
I've created a new DataSet in VS2005 and dragged the stored proc onto the DataSet design surface.
I right click on the TableAdapter and enter the 'configure'. The problem is that the wizard doesn't think any fields are being returned by the SP.
If I try and do it another way I get the same problem: Right click on DataSet and add new TableAdapter (same thing happens, it won't recognise that there are fields being returned from the SP).
FYI: If I do it for an SP that doesn't use any temporary tables it all works like a dream (problem is that I need to use temporary tables as its complex ).
Thanks for any advise
Dear Friends,
I need to execute a SQL query, inside a dataflow (not in controlFlow) and need the records returned to continue the dataflow... In my case I cant use lookup and OLE DB COmmand and nothing else...
I need to execute a query and need the records for dataflow... with OLE DB command I cant see the fields returned... :-(
How can I do it? Using a script? Can I use a Script Component? That receive 2 parameters for input and give me the fields returned from query as output?
Thanks!!
Hi Guys,
we have a database where we have backup and restore done daily basis by a automated task. We are having errors on MSDB the saying database is reached the capacity(as SYSBACKUPHISRY getting populated every day). After I increase the size of MSDB,the error msg disappeared.
Does anyone know rather than increasing the size, Can we somehow store the data upto somany records and then when it reach the max, to rewrite the SYSBACKUPHISRY table all over again?
Is it advisable to truncate the sysbackup history table?
I would really like some one to give an idea as soon as posible. I appreciate it really very much.
Thanks,
Jay.
can the transaction log be filled.?
lets say i deleted millions of rows. does it get filled?
I want to be able to return the last date, e.g.(select Max(DateColumn) From Table)However if any of the DateColumn fields are null I want to return anull, is there a simple way to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a strange problem. I have some code that executes a sql query. If I run the query in SQL server query analyzer, I get a set of data returned for me as expected. This is the query listed on lines 3 and 4. I just manually type it into query analyzer.
Yet when I run the same query in my code, the result set is slightly different because it is missing some data. I am confused as to what is going on here. Basically to examine the sql result set returned, I write it out to an XML file. (See line 16).
Why the data returned is different, I have no idea. Also writing it out to an XML file is the only way I can look at the data. Otherwise looking at it in the debugger is impossible, with the hundreds of tree nodes returned.
If someone is able to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it.

I have a SP search_post (e.g)
@id int,
@author varchar(40),
@keyword varchar(40),
select * from
posts
where
id = @id and author =@author and message like @keyword
in my case a user can choose to search by one or more of this elements.
what will be the best approach to write a statement that will account for the posibility of the user leaving some "parameters" empty, while also allowing for the posibility that all parameters could be filled
one approach I have thought out is this
if (@id IS NOT null)
select * from
posts where id = @id
if (@author IS NOT null)
select * from
posts where author= @author
if (@keyword IS NOT null)
select * from
posts where keyword = (@keyword
but this does not really take care of the posibility that all of them or some of them will be null while others will not
any suggestions ?
Hi,
I'm trying to write a restore script. In the past I've always used the SSMS GUI to restore. When running the script below, the process got stuck at around 90%. Eventually I aborted the restore and found out that my C drive was full. The log file of the database I was restoring was 32GB. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Hi,
I've a dataset which is filled using a stored procedure in either MSSQL2005 or 2000.
The procedure may return sql-errors (f.ex 208 if a table is not found), but the procedure will anyway return data which shall populate the dataset, independent on 208 errors.
The procedure works fine if running it from f.ex. SqlMgtStudio, and the dataset is filled if the procedure triggers no errors.
However, if the procedure triggers an error like 208, then I get an exception in the application and the dataset is not populated with the data returned by the procedure.
Is there a way of telling the DataSet/SqlDataAdapter to fill the dataset even if the sql-code genererates som errors?
Regards, Guttorm
I have data similar to the below
CREATE TABLE #TEMP
(
TYPE VARCHAR(10),
SEQ INT,
SUB_TYPE VARCHAR(10))
[Code] ....
Now for each type the seq is very important. Effectively by order of seq the subtype stays the same until another subtype changes it. So for TYPE1 100,110 and 150 are A. 170, 200,220 are B. 230 and 250 are C and so on.
However as you can see the data isnt actually stored in the row. I need a select statement that shows this data.
I have done this:
SELECT t1.*,t3.SUB_TYPE FROM #TEMP t1
CROSS APPLY
(SELECT MAX(SEQ) SEQ FROM #TEMP AS t2 WHERE t1.SEQ >= t2.seq AND t2.SUB_TYPE <>'' AND t1.TYPE = t2.TYPE
GROUP BY t2.TYPE) t2
INNER JOIN
#TEMP t3
ON t3.TYPE = t1.TYPE AND t2.SEQ = t3.SEQ
And it seems to work. Is this the easiest way to do it or am i missing something?
Hi all,
I've got a large table (3mil records) with a number of columns, but currently no way to refer to any individual column. I therefore need a primary key, but does anyone know of a SQL statement I can use that will create a column (say, ID) that is automatically filled with an incrementing 'counter'? Or, instead, how can I set unique incremental values after first creating the column?
Many thanks,
Graham
I want to use SSB as a mean to thread multiple SP invocation of the same procedure.
When I launched the initator processes it created in the transmission queue error messages saying for each of them that it is an invalid target service name.
The view (sys.transmission_queue) records them in this way in the status column:
"The target service name could not be found. Ensure that the service name is specified correctly and/or the routing information has been supplied."
Services and queues and activation procedure are all defined into the same database.
I drop services and queues, and i tried to create a service with the initial wrong name. Nothing happened.
Thanks vour your help

Hello,
I have a report in wich I show a list of countries. The length of this list differs each month and comes from a SSAS datasource.
I want to show this list on my report in a matrix like this:
country1 country6 country11
country2 country7 country12
country3 country8
country4 country9
country5 country10
How can I do this? I need some sort of check that counts the number of countries added and then adds a new column after 5 countries.
I'm sure there is somebody that did this or knows how to do this.
Thanks in advance!

currently I am facing a complex escenario related with gaps and sequences, but I was trying with diferent cases but I did not get the correct results, I am sure about the use of windows functions. I have a table with the information grouped by PublicationId, Provider, MetricId and Amount by Date, one row by each month, but in some cases these data don't have a sequencial values, for example I have the data for the next sequence:
I need to get the sequence by each month, in this case I need to project the month from February to May (with the last previous value, for this case of January) , this is:
The data for testing are:
DECLARE @PublicationsByUser AS TABLE
(
Id INT,
PublicationId INT,
MetricId INT,
ProviderId INT,
DateCreated DATE,
Amount FLOAT

I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using MS SQL 2012. I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it. Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:
I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:
ID, provider_name, uniq_id, total_spent, total_earned
Here is sample data:

View 1 Replies View RelatedPardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.
In a nutshell, how can I write something like:
UPDATE "TABLENAME"
SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2
WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)
I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.
I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).
Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.
Hi people
My users are having troubles with link to default drillthrough report when reports are exported to excel (they REALLY don't like this behavior ), so I decided set all of them disabled in report model, this work fine, but calculated field in reports has this drillthrough link.
Let me show you the situation. Entity Product has an UnitaryCost field, I set the EnableDrillthrough Property in False so when I export a report with this field, no link is shown.
But if I create in the report a calculated field Round(UnitaryCost) this field has a Drillthrough Link
Is this the standard and expected behavior? or its simply a BUG?
Have I done something wrong in my model? and in this case, How I can correct this?
regards.
