I'd like some ideas on how to help out my VB staff when it comes to the tick ( ' ) mark being used in front end applications. When users enter data into the front end, and they include tick marks (eg: Sam's Auto Store), this causes trouble in how the app uses that data in a WHERE clause and other places. Does anyone have any slick ideas or experience in handling this. We have experimented with search & replace, double tick marks ( '' ), etc...

I have an ASP.Net page that allows people to type in strings and store them into a SQL Server DB; which in turn gets displayed on a website. The project has an admin side that can add/delete/edit announcements, which get displayed on an intranet site. These announcements can be clicked on to display further detail. When announcements are clicked on a javascript popup window is generated that displays the strings. All data is stored in a SQL Server DB.What I need to know is: how do I check to see if a string has a quotation mark or apostrophe in it so that I can replace it with the appropriate HTML code? (Though it seems I can't display an apostrophe, even when using the HTML code ''')If I store the string as was entered by the administrator (with quotation marks instead of '"'), the popup window will not display.

Thanks,

Hi I have an asp.net 2.0, web app with a sql 2000 db. I am having a problem when users cut and past content from Word and Excel and past it into a textbox apostrophes are replaced as question marks when saved to db.

Hi all,I have an old ASP .NET 1.1 application that I haven't had time to rebuild with .NET 2.0. No changes have been made to the application or the SQL Server the application uses. I have a web form where users can type multiple lines of text, and it is entered into an SQL database (SQL 2000 Enterprise) into a column with a datatype of "text". Recently (it seems out of nowhere), If my users enter a carriage return into the webform, it becomes a question mark in the sql database. It's really a bit funny, but also annoying, lol. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Thanks so much!

Please can anyone help me - I am trying to establish whether there are any reserved symbols in SQL passwords
eg % £ " $ ( / < * etc
The SQL BOL has a list of reserved words but I cannot find a list of reserved symbols.
We have a problem where by for example if the main part of the password is "test" and my user wants to add a punctuation mark into this we get "You are attempting to use an invalid character message"
Specifically
"test$" is accepted "$test" is not accepted
None of "te+st" "+test" "test+" are accepted.
Has anyone else come across this and found a list of the logic that produces these results so I can point my users in the right direction?
Cheers

Hi There,
I'm having a little trouble with a large query I have written to be sent as an email.
I want to send it as a csv so I've added commas in between each value in the query.
This is causing an error though, I think the ' that surround the commas are closing the query early. Is there any way around this? like encapsulating the query?
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = 'ggsgn'
,@recipients = 'sgsdm'
,@subject = 'Nsgdday'
,@attach_query_result_as_file = 1
,@body_format = 'text'
,@query ='
use sdgsgdgs
select
a1.c#,',', client,',', fr,',', tpe,',', dateReq as DateRequested,',', ... '

I have this table of Marks as shown below. All I need is to find the average Marks at various intervals of S.no. That is I need averages at every 3rd S.No. as shown.
S.No. Marks
1 ------ 5
2 ------ 5
3 ------ 6 1st Average Value here (16/3)
4 ------ 5
5 ------ 6
6 ------ 7 2nd Average Value here (18/3)
7 ------ 7
8 ------ 7
9 ------ 8 3rd Average Value here (22/3)
10 ----- 8
11 ----- 9
12 ----- 8 4th Average Value here (26/3)
So basically I need a new table which will have 4 average values for the table above. Of-course the table can be much bigger and the average values can be at any nth value of S.No.

Is it possible to remove the tick marks that I have circled in red?The chart has data Week by week over a year, and the T1, T2 etc are equivalent to Quarter1, Quarter 2 etcI've got a 3 level grouping, with the top level being Year, then Quarter, then Week. The label for the "Week" grouping is set to blank, and that's why you don't see it here.Removing the Tick marks would make the chart legend more readable in my opinion.

Grade Table is:
Grade_letter lowbound_marks uperbound_marks
A 85 100
B 60 84
C 0 59
Suppose some another query returns marks.Now, I am stuck with the query which takes the grade_letter based on the marks falling in the range given above. I want a query which is not hardcoded and calculates the grade based on the values given in the table only.

Hello Everyone,
When i checked the machine this morning i saw that MS DTC service was stopped and when did start it, it was good for a sec or two then it stopped auto matically i was not sure waht was goin on...
Then i checked the Eventviewer, it said the log file is full i tried out to find ms dtc log reset or increase the size but could not find out..where can i find this.
One more thing what is the purpose of DTC, i know in sql 6.5 we have everything in enterprize manager but i can't see the same either in 7.0 or 2000 is the name changed or is it linked to some other source.
Like linked server , does this depend on MS DTC..how and what is the basic purpose of this..kindly tell me what i should do now...
I got to fix it asap..big hassle..
Thanks in advance,
Kavitha

Hi,I'm trying to upload a large number of log entries currently stored astext files into a database table using bcp. For a few rows I get a"right truncation" error and the offending rows are not uploaded to thetable.I don't want to increase the size of the table varchar fields becauseit's only about a dozen out of almost million rows that have thisproblem ... I want to provide an override - i.e. if a row will resultin truncated data, truncate but still bulk copy the offending row. Isthat possible?I couldn't find such an option in the documentation.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks,Mudassir Latif

I'm writing a store procedure to accept search strings from user on my site. Currently, this is what I have.
Code Snippet
@schoolID int = NULL,
@scholarship varchar(250) = NULL,
@major varchar(250) = NULL,
@requirement varchar(250) = NULL
--@debug bit = 0
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT * FROM [scholarship]
WHERE ([sectionID] = @schoolID OR @schoolID IS NULL)
AND ([schlrPrefix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrName] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrSufix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR @scholarship IS NULL )
AND ([Specification] LIKE '%' + @major + '%' OR @major IS NULL )
AND ([reqr1] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr2] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr3] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr4] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr5] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR @requirement IS NULL )
The problem is, somtimes the search doesn't work if there is a space behind or infront of the search string. I wonder if there is away to ignore any spaces and go right into whatever character comes next or after. If so, how do I implement that?

I have a stored procedure that does several steps.
During the stored proc, error messages are produced when certain conditions warrant. But I want to continue anyway....
ex. in a loop in the proc...
SET @strSQL = 'Update Table1 SET col1 = ''' + @strVariable + ''''
EXEC (@strSQL)
--ERROR created by the exec statement.....
When I schedule this as a job, the first error message makes the job fail.
How can I force the proc to run completely, even if an error occurs?
Thanks in Advance..

Hi! I'm wondering if there is a way to have the AVG() not to include the zero amount as part of the calculation. I'm looking
the field, PurchPrice and RepairCost that are used by the AVG() function...
Code:
SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase
WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style
I don't want to do this way...
Code:
SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase
WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
and (PurchPrice > 0 or RepairCost > 0)
GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style
because the PurchPrice would sometime be zero and the RepairCost wouldn't be zero.

Hi,
I have a query like this one
SELECT expense_id, CAST(expense_id AS char(10)) + ' - ' + CAST(trip_km AS char(5))+ ' - ' + CAST(expense_amount AS char(5)) + ' - ' + charge_centre AS ExpenseDesc
If charge center is null, I need to ignore this field. How can I achieve this? The reason is that if any of the field is null, it will return ExpenseDesc as null.
Thanks

Hi,
I have 2 tables in which there are 2 fields which hold the same piece of data. In one of the fields however there is a "_" character within the value.
So when comparing the 2 directly they will not be the same.
So the example is the following
Table 1, field 1 value is 1000220_1
Table 2, field 2 value is 10002201
So in table 1 the "_" is always in the 8th position.
Does anybody know a way in the JOIN statement how I can maybe ignore the 8th character in field 1 ? Or ignore any "_" it finds?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Michiel

Hi,
I am trying to import data from a Text file into a database Table using SQLserver BCP utility. I am able to do that when I have all new records in my Text file. But I am getting primary key violation error when I am trying to import the record which is already existing in the table. This is correct, but I want my program to ignore these errors and import only those records which are fine.
I tried [-m maxerrors] option, but it is not working. My BCP program is getting interrupted at the first error itself, even if I give [-m100] option.
my command looks something like this,
bcp pub..employee in C:data.txt -b1 -m100 -c -t, -Sdatabase -Uuser -Ppassword
here -b1 is, processing 1 row per batch transaction
-m100 is, ignoring first 100 errors
please help.
thanks
