Hi,I am creating creating a table with a Date column dd-mm-yyyy. But Icant seem to find a SQL function that just returns today's date.getDate() returns the time as well so I cant use it.The reason is simply that I want to update/overwrite over and overagain all records from current day but not touch the ones fromyesterday etc and with the timestamp in there I just end up addingmore and more rows for the same day.In other words I only want to preserve rows are from yesterday orolder but overwrite ones from today.Any help will be appricated.Thank you!Yas

I have a Table-valued Function already defined in my DB. When I look at it's Properties, it lists Encrypted TRUE.
How can I set Encrypted to FALSE? Is there a t-sql command to ALTER the Function to set Encrypted False?

heywhen i try to search an "noise word" it drop me an ERRORwhat i have done : - stop full text service- remove the words i want ,from noise.enu , noise.eng , noise.dat (@@language = u.s...) the files is in system32 and in program files...config .- start full text service-rebuild and after that re populate the catalog
and it still drop me an ERROR !!! how can i resolve this prob ???
tnx tnx .
This is driving me nuts.
I recently moved a database from one server to another. One thing
I didn't catch is that I had a Full Text Catalog on the old server.
Well, on the new server, the catalog is still pointing to a disk
location that doesn't exist on the new server. I tried to remove
the catalog but get an error:
"Error 21776: The name 'Claims Catalog' was not found in the FullTextCatalogs collection....."
So, I go to the table and attempt to remove Full Text Indexing but get
the same error with: "Error 20565: Database is not full-text
enabled yet"
I tried to remove the indexing key from the table and get: "Invalid cursor state"
I even tried to fake a mapped drive with the path it was looking for and it still doesn't work.
Any suggestions other than dropping the table? (it has about 40,000 records).
Thanks!

in our database is saved by 6 decimal places, whether the value has no values ??in decimal position. Field type is of type nvarchar.
How do I remove these "laggards spirit" in the best and smartest way.
Ex:
100.000000 will be 100
100.001000 will be 100.001
100.000001 will be be 100.000001
100.100000 will be be 100.1
and so on...
I have a field that contains some text. Each field will have none or atleast one comment in it. A comment can be a string of any length with *** on both sides. Ex: ***comment***
Declare @Test_tbl Table(TextField Text)
Insert Into @Test_tbl
Select 'Some text ***comment*** some more text' Union all
Select 'Other text ***another comment*** more and more text' Union all
Select '***Comment*** some text ***More Comments***' Union all
Select 'some text with no comment'
I need the output be ...
TextField
--------------
Some text some more text
Other text more and more text
some text
some text with no comment
Thanks in advance.
Hello
When you set the results from a query to text, very often you end up with a format like:

I am using Enterprise Manager to create database tables. In the table design view I am trying to create a column called, section. After typing, section, Enterprise Manager automatically puts brackets around the name, ex. [section]. When I view the table by returning all rows the brackets are gone. However, when I go back to desing view the brackets are there. Why is this happening and what affect does it have on my database?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi All,I was hoping someone has experienced this before, I'm having troublegoogling this. I'm working with a poorly writtend database that has somefields named as such: MTIC_PROD_VEND[ 1]I do not have the option to rename this field but I do need to retreive datafrom it with SQL. I've tried a suggestion of [MTIC_PROD_VEND[ 1]]] and thatdoesn't seem to work, it may be because the 1 has a space leading it. Doesanyone happen to have any suggestion to try to work around this? Anyassistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.Regards,Stephan

I'm trying to run a SELECT statement to get two different values from a field that looks like this:
"Sample text [123], Sample text 2 [345]"
The two values I'm trying to grab has to be after the last comma. So in this case, I need to get
Value 1: 345
Value 2: Sample text 2
Is this possible to do? I can't create functions to accomplish this.
Iwant to convert the datetime to the integer value as shown within the brackets.

Hi,
for some AP issue, the file I upload must be without the line feed/carriage return in the last line.
for example:
original fixed-length file (exported from SSIS)
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
4 <-- with line feed/carriage return in the last line
The file format that AP request. The file only has 3 records, so it should end in the third line.
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
Should I use script component to do it ? I am new for VB . Anyone would help me ?
Thank you all.
I have a problem setting the default value of a column. I am trying to set it to
(CONVERT([float],getdate()+(2),0))
However, SQL Server automatically sets it to
(CONVERT([float],getdate()+(2),(0)))
While it functionally does not change anything, we have a tool which compares the database schema against a pre-existing schema and shows this as an error.I have tried setting the value directly and through scripts but it does not work either way.
Hi,
On x64 versions of Windows server 2003, there is a folder called "Program Files (x86)". The use of parenthesis in this name has caused a few issues so far, particularly with connecting SQL Server 2005 to Oracle using SSIS. After several hours of searching I realized that the parenthesis was causing it, and eventually I found that the best way is to avoid creating such a name while installing the OS itself, by using winnt.sif. This would be better than renaming it and changing registry entries after the installation is done.
I realize this may not be the best question to ask of Microsoft, but why not just call it "Program Filesx86" by default so no special procedure has to be done to get around these issues? The use of parenthesis is likely to cause even more compatibility issues with other software later?
BTW I use Microsoft products regularly and love most of them
I have the following Table:
ORDER_ID SKUS
12345678 SCINC, SCNRQ, SRPPR
All the values in the 'SKUs' column are combined together, seperated by a comma.
Is there an easy to way "de-pivot" this so that the Order ID gets repeated as follows:
ORDER_ID SKU
12345678 SCINC
12345678 SCNRQ
12345678 SRPPR
Here's some code:
SELECT ORDER_ID, SKU FROM ORDERS
Does anyone have the logic to convert RTF formatted data in a textcolumn into plain ascii text that I can use in a varchar variable orfield?We have an app that allows formatted comments/notes to be stored in aSQL 2000 text column. Ideally, I would like a trigger that would copyany inserted comments into a seperate table, varchar field so thatthese are viewable in other apps that can not display formatted RTF.I would really like the logic to be all SQL based and not have to use aclient app to read/convert/insert the data in a batch mode.
