Formatfile Shortcut?

Jul 20, 2005

I was searching the group for posts on the subject of format files and
I came across a message by Erland Sommarskog dated 2003-07-07 with
subject line "Re: BCP Format File". In this example, he used a
FORMATFILE where the "prefix length" and "host file data length"
fields were both zero for all columns.

This convention seems to simplify the task of creating format files.
Is this shortcut generally applicable or was it a special case? Does
this mean that SQL Server can always establish the actual lengths in
the data file by looking up the destination table's schema
information?

BCP Formatfile: Unknown Version Message

Sep 27, 2007

Greetings:

I am trying to load data in SQL Server 2005 using bcp. I get the following message from bcp:


SQLState = HY000, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Attempt to read unknown version of BCP for
mat file

The format file starts as follows:
9.0
206
1,SQLCHAR,0,5," ",1,ZIPCODE
2,SQLCHAR,0,4," ",2,ZIP_4

...

Does the first line appear correct ? Any suggestions on what to change would be appreiciated.

Thanks.

Shortcut Key Could Not Work

Feb 26, 2008

Private Sub DataGridView1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.KeyDown

'Create a new row after pressing enter key

Dim newRow As PSystemDBDataSet._BaseInformation_FTRow

newRow = PSystemDBDataSet._BaseInformation_FT.New_BaseInformation_FTRow

If (e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter) Then

PSystemDBDataSet._BaseInformation_FT.Rows.Add(newRow)

PSystemDBDataSet._BaseInformation_FT.IDColumn.AutoIncrement = True

Else

PSystemDBDataSet._BaseInformation_FT.IDColumn.AutoIncrement = False

End If

'Post the information to final results and tax information using shortcut keys

If (e.Control And e.KeyCode.ToString = "C") Then

MsgBox("This is it")

End If

End Sub


The control C code that i code cannot work. Any ideas??

Outer Join Shortcut?

Nov 20, 2007

Is this a shortcut for an outer join and if so, why can't I find any info on it?

select id, name
from table1, table2
where id *= id_tbl2

instead of

select tb1.id, tb1.name
from table1 as tb1
outer join table2 as tb2
where tb1.id = tb2.id_tbl2


and what happens in the first example if you try to join more tables?

SQL Server 2008 :: Shortcut Key For Template?

Sep 30, 2015

I created a template that I use all the time. Normally I just drag-n-drop from the Template Explorer menu, however I'm wondering if I can assign a shortcut key to have it open? I see you can assign stored procedures and other items, but I can't find where/if I can do this for a template.

SSIS Does Not Open And The Shortcut Is Missing

May 26, 2008

I have installed in my machine SQL 2005 with SSIS components, and the Visual studio 2005. The installation process was successfully and all components seem to be on the machine, but I did not find the shortcut to allow me running SSIS environment.
When I re-run the SQL setup the SSIS components is there but is unable to be used.
Any idea how to solve this issue?

Thank you,

Code Page Conversion Shortcut?

Dec 16, 2005

Is there a simple way to avoid having to use a data conversion task to convert Unicode data (from DB2) to ANSI format (for insert to Oracle)?

I'm hoping that there is a way to set the code page property on the OLEDB driver so that it implicitly converts to the format I want instead of having to explicitly force the conversion in the package.

Thoughts? suggestions?

SQL Server 2008 :: Shortcut For Table Variables?

Jul 27, 2015

any shortcut strategies for table variables similar to shortcut strategies for temp tables? For example, the following SQL will create a temp table named #MyTable with all of the columns from student and then select the top 10 rows of student data into #MyTable:

select top 10 * into #MyTable from Student

Is there any type of similar or equivalent shortcut for table variables like:

select top 10 * into @MyTable from Student

if I want to select rows from Student into a @MyTable table variable then I need to create the @MyTable table variable with a column structure like a normal table which is more time-consuming than using the temp table approach.

Shortcut To Insert New GUID Into Uniqueidentifier Cell In MSSQL Management Studio Express?

Jul 15, 2006

Hi,

anyone knows if there's an easy way to insert new GUIDs into uniqueidentifier cells when editing data in table on Management Studio Express? or Visual Studio 2005 Server Explorer? I can't find a shortcut, and copying from external tools is pain..

I suppose it's possible to build a VB macro in Visual Studio, would it work when editing table data?

Thanks in advance!
