I have a problem here where I am trying to use SQL Parameters to update a column in the database, but the problem is that I need to concatenate the same column to the SQL parameter. The code I have is below, but it throws a Format Exception...
UPDATE tbl_NSP_Inspection SET Description = Description + @InspectionDescription
...It is because I am trying to Append teh data in the description column to the SQL Parameter (
@InspectionDescription). How do I actually do this using SQL Parameters?
I am trying to figure out a way to use a columns default value when using a stored procedure to insert a new row into a table. I know you are thinking "that is what the default value is for", but bare with me on this.
Take the following table and subsequent stored procedure. In the table below, I have four columns, one of which is NOT NULL and has a default value set for that column.
CREATE PROCEDURE TestTable_Insert @FirstName nvarchar(50), @LastName nvarchar(50), @SSN nvarchar(15), @geek bit = NULL AS BEGIN INSERT INTO TestTable (FirstName, LastName, SSN, IsGeek) VALUEs (@FirstName, @LastName, @SSN, @geek) END GO
and executed it as follows (without passing the @geek parameter value)
The error I got back (and somewhat expected) is the following:
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'IsGeek', table 'ScottTest.dbo.TestTable'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
What I would like to happen is for the table to use the columns default value and not the NULL value if I don't pass a parameter for @geek. OR, it would be really cool to be able to do something like this:

Im looking for example code to make a sql update... I want to use command.Parameters and variables from text boxes and i'm unsure how to do this... Please help. This code below doesn't work but it is an example of what i've been working with.. <code> { string conn = string.Empty; ConnectionStringsSection connectionStringsSection = WebConfigurationManager.GetSection("connectionStrings") as ConnectionStringsSection; if (connectionStringsSection != null) { ConnectionStringSettingsCollection connectStrings = connectionStringsSection.ConnectionStrings; ConnectionStringSettings connString = connectStrings["whowantsConnectionString"]; conn = connString.ConnectionString; using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(conn)) using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("UPDATE users SET currentscore=5)", connection)) { updateCommand.Parameters.Add("@currentscore", SQLServerDbType.numeric, 18, "currentscore"); connection.Open(); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); connection.Close(); } } }</code>
I have a web form that is populated from the DB values. User can update teh record by keying in new values in the form fields. In my .vb class file I have an update statement - strSql = "UPDATE msi_Persons SET Firstname=@firstname where Id=@id" I have the parameters defined as cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@firstname", _FirstName)) cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@id", _Id)) _FirstName & _Id are the private variables whose values a set thru set and get methods. I expect _FirstName to have the new value I am keying in the form. Can any body help me with what's wrong here? This is not updating the database. When I do trace.write it shows me the Update statement as "UPDATE msi_Persons SET Firstname=@firstname where Id=@id" instead of @firstname and @id being replace by actual values. Please help. Thanks,Shaly
Hi All,The following code runs without error but does not update the database. Therefore I must be missing something.I am sure that this a simple task but as newbie to asp.net its got me stumpted.

hi, please someone can help me. I get error 0x80040E14L // The command contained one or more errors. I think that the error is in the sql update command. this is my code:
I'm passing a parameter to a stored procedure stored on my sqlserver, or trying to atleast. And then firing off the update command that contains that parameter from a button. But it's not changing my data on my server when I do so. I'm filling a dropdown list from a stored procedure and I have a little loop run another sp that grabs what the selected value should be in the dropdown list when the page loads/refreshes. All this works fine, just not sp that should update my data when I hit the submit button. It's supposed to update one of my tables to whatever the selected value is from my drop down list. But it doesn't even change anything. It just refreshes the page and goes back to the original value for my drop down list. Just to make sure that it's my update command that's failing, I've even changed the back end data manually to a different value and on page load it shows the proper selected item that I changed the data to, etc. It just won't change the data from the page when I try to.

We got this little issue of passing around (updated and inserting) small dataSets (20-500 or so records) from fat clients to a remote server running .Net / SQL 2005.
Instead of trying to fudge the data and make updates in .Net, we just decided it would be a lot less nonsense if we just wrap up the dataSets in an XML string, have .Net just pass it thru as a parameter in a SP and let SQL parse it out using openXML. The data is small and server is low use, so I'm not worried about overhead, but I would like to know the best methods and DO's & Don'ts to parse the XML and make the updates/inserts....and maybe a few good examples. The few examples I've come across are kind of sketchy. Seems it's not a real popular method of handling updates.
I have an update command with 7 parameters, but at run time the order to the parameters gets mixed up. I'm using a stored procedure. At first I have the command type set to text, and was calling it using EXEC spName ?,?,?,?,?,?,? I then named each of the parameters and set their sources. The parameters are like this (samepl name, then source, then type): A : QueryString - intB: Control - intC: Control - intD: None - intE: None - decimalF: Control - datetimeG: Control - datetime At run time I was getting an error that an integer couldn't be converted to date time. So I put a breakpoint in the Updating event and then looked at the parameters prior to update. This is how they looked (Parameter index, paramter name): [0] A[1] B[2] D[3] E[4] F[5] G[6] C It didn't maek any sense. Do, I deleted all of the paramters and readded them. That didnt' work. Then I changed the command to StoredProcedure and refreshed the parameters from the stored proc and it brought them in the right order, but the problem remains the same. I looked at the page source, and there are no indexes in the page source, but the parameters are listed in the proper creation order, as follows:<UpdateParameters><asp:QueryStringParameter Type="Int32" Name="PROJ_ID" QueryStringField="pid"></asp:QueryStringParameter><asp:ControlParameter PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="Int32" Name="TASK_UID" ControlID="fvTask"></asp:ControlParameter><asp:ControlParameter PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="Int32" Name="ASSN_UID" ControlID="gvResources"></asp:ControlParameter><asp:Parameter Type="Int32" Name="RES_UID"></asp:Parameter><asp:Parameter Type="Double" Name="Work"></asp:Parameter><asp:ControlParameter PropertyName="Text" Type="DateTime" Name="Start" ControlID="TASK_START_DATETextBox"></asp:ControlParameter><asp:ControlParameter PropertyName="Text" Type="DateTime" Name="Finish" ControlID="TASK_FINISH_DATETextBox"></asp:ControlParameter></UpdateParameters> No mater what I do, at run time ASSN_UID is always the last parameter. I've also run a SQL trace to see how it is actually being executed, and sure enough, its passing the value for ASSN_UID as the last parameter, which obviously doesn't work. Any ideas as to why this would happen or how to fix it? (I guess I can reorder the patameters in the stored proc to match how they are being passed, but still, that wouldn't be a very comfortable solution, since it could perhaps revert at some point or something)
I have a stored procedure that updates about a dozen rows.
I have some overloaded functions that I should update different combinations of the rows - 1 function might update 3 rows, another 7 rows.
Do I have to write a stored procedure for each function or I can I handle it in the Stored Procedure. I realise I can have default values but I the default values could overwrite actual data if the values are not supplied but have been previously written.
Set prm = New Parameter prm.Type = adInteger prm.Value = gsPlcCode cmd.Parameters.Append prm
Set ttt = New Parameter ttt.Type = adVarChar ttt.Value = "TEST" cmd.Parameters.Append ttt
'cmd(1) = gsPlcCode 'cmd(2) = "Test"
Set rs = cmd.Execute
It works when passing one but NOT two ?? Can anyone shed any light ?? I've also tried using the Create Parameter method but again one is fine but passing two parameters doesn't work ?
The stored procedure just performs an update on a table.
Basically I want to be able to update any fields in a table (specific record) when they have been changed by the user. I have placed boolean variables in the change events to detect any user edits. If any field(s) have been edited I then want to send each field within the current record as parameters to the update stored procedure.
Any clues as to how to get an update stored procedure to except multiple variables.
I have trawled through loads of documentation to no avail.
All of these dates are based on the update of our data warehouse. This stored procedure runs a 5 step process and produces data for 8 - 10 monthly reports.
I was wondering if these variables can be updated dynamically and if they can how it is done.
I just posted a question on WHERE clause impotence in SELECT command, I mean in my setting. It obviously should work on a global scale and now I have a problem with UPDATE command WHERE clause.
I am talking about a different SP now. It is supposed to update a record in a table.
Anyhow, the procedure did NOT seem to execute properly (did not update the record) when called from C# code but when I tried to exec it in the server it finally did work but raised a problem of safeguarding the unused parameters.
I do not need to update all columns in every call to the SP that uses UPDATE statement. Some parameters are left the way they are. I found out that if I ignore them they are set to default values which is NULL for DateTime. It essentially wipes out the values I inserted in the previous INSERT command when the record was created. Some of them were not NULLs.
if this is not just my freak observation, I would like to know how this problem should be handled to make sure that all column values are safe. If it is impossible to make them all not being updated every time a single parameter is updated it will create some problems for me in the client code: I will have to retreive all parameters, put them in variables or an ArrayList and then update the whole record wholesale.
Hello all, Ok, I finally got my SqlDataSource working with Oracle once I found out what Oracle was looking for. My next hurdle is to try and set the Update Command and Parameters dynamically from a variable or radiobutton list. What I'm trying to accomplish is creating a hardware database for our computers by querying WMI and sending the info to textboxes for insertion and updating. I got that part all working nicely. Now I want to send the Computer name info to a different table column depending on if it is a laptop or desktop. I have been tossing around 2 ideas. A radiobutton list to select what it is and change the SQL parameters or do it by computer name since we have a unique identifier as the first letter ("W" for workstation, "L" for Laptop). I'm not sure what would be easiest but I'm still stuck on how this can be done. I posted this same question in here a few days ago, but I didn't have my SqlDataSources setup like I do now, I was using Dreamweaver 8, it is now ported to VS 2005. Below is my code, in bold is what I think needs to be changed dynamically, basically i need to change DESKTOP to LAPTOP...Thanks for all the help I've gotten from this forum already, I'm very new to ASP.NET and I couldn't do this without all the help. Thanks again!
I have a student table like this studentid, schoolID, previousschoolid, gradelevel.
I would like to load this table every day from student system.
During the year, the student could change schoolid, whenever there is a change, I would put current records schoolid to the previous schoolid column, and set the schoolid as the newschoolid from student system.
My question in my merge statement something like below
Merge into student st using (select * from InputStudent ins) on st.id=ins.studentid
When matched then update
set st.schoolid=ins.schoolid , st.previouschoolid= case when (st.schoolid<>ins.schoolid) then st.schoolid else st.previouschoolid end , st.grade_level=ins.grade_level ;
My question is since schoolid is et at the first line of set statement, will the second line still catch what is the previous schoolid?
I am trying to build a report that has two parameters that are entered by the user. They will be a simple string that is basically a six digit unique identifier number called DEALID. I have my report set so that I can enter one of these Deal ID's and it will pull in all of the fields I need. However, within the same report I want to have the user be able to enter a second Deal ID and have it pull in effectively the same values, yet associated with that new ID. The problem seems to be that I am trying to have multiple parameters querying the same field in the database. Is this something that can be done? I have tried naming them all uniquely with a new alias and that does not seem to help.
I want to send a reports to two person. Reports are going to be delivered automatically. I hope to use snapshot option. In my report there is one column which can be seen by only one person. Can I use parameters to hide one column from one person? If its possible, can you explain how to do that please. If its not possible, what are the other option excet creating two different reports. Also If I use parameters , can reports be executed automatically? Thanks
I'm using SQL Server 7. I have an invoice table. The invoice table has a datetime column called InvoiceDate. The InvoiceDate column contains the following date format: 5/3/00 I would like to use the InvoiceDate column to update the char (6) column called zInvoiceDate as a formatted date field like yymmdd.
The following syntax did not work: SET zInvoiceDate = Convert([ARInvoiceID],GetDate()12)
When a user clicks a button, an sql query is fired which increments the view_count value by one and calculates a new percentage value from this. The query to update the percentage value doesn't work, here's the query:
UPDATE [statistics] SET percentage = follow_count / view_count * 100 WHERE (stat_id = 15)
This code worked fine with MySQL, but since migrating to MSSql it doesn't seem to work. The data type of the percentage column is: decimal(5, 2)
I have a problem i'v been searching all day but i can't find an answer anywhere maybe someone here can help. What I want to do is give a column in a table the same value as another column from the same table. For example: Table:Requests A request has a relatedrequestId wich links another request to it. Now I want the date from the linked request in the date from the master request. Because all the master requests date's are empty and i want them to have the date from the linked request.
I have a table which has a field called Org. This field can be segmented from one to five segments based on a user defined delimiter and user defined segment length. Another table contains one row of data with the user defined delimiter and the start and length of each segment. e.g.

Org
aaa:aaa:aa
aaa:aaa:ab
aaa:aab:aa
Table 2
delim
Seg1Start
Seg1Len

My objective is to use SSIS and derive three columns from the one column in Table 1 based on the positions defined in Table 2. Table 2 is a single row table. I thought perhaps I could use the substring function and nest the select statement in place of the parameters in the derived column data flow. I don't seem to be able to get this to work.
Any ideas? Can this be done in SSIS?
I'd really appreciate any insight that anyone might have.
Hi,I have table with three columns as belowtable name:expNo(int) name(char) refno(int)I have data as belowNo name refno1 a2 b3 cI need to update the refno with no values I write a query as belowupdate exp set refno=(select no from exp)when i run the query i got error asSubquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when thesubquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used asan expression.I need to update one colum with other column value.What is the correct query for this ?Thanks,Mani
i need to update the value in the column by adding to the value already in that column.
For eg, the value is in the column is already 5, i need to update it with addition of 8. i.e 5+8 = 13. The final value should be 13 in the column after that. How do I go about doing it?
UPDATE Table 1 SET ColumnName +=8 ?
Thanks in advance. really at a loss and very urgent.
I'm quite new to SQL and wondered if someone could help. I'm pretty good at writing reports but I now need to do an update.
Basically i need to update a column in table1 where coulmn 1 in table4 = Y, however to get to table4 I think I need to link to all 4 tables, table4 is the last table. The tables link based on ID's
Tried a few things such as
UPDATE table1 SET column1 = '' WHERE column1 IN ( SELECT column1 FROM table4 WHERE column1 = Y)
Now I need to get to table 4 I need some other wHERE clauses to link them together, just like I would if I were writing a SELECT statement.
I have a table with a column called data. In that column is a value like: <settings><myVarOne>valueOne</myVarOne><myVarTwo>valueTwo</myVarTwo></settings>
All I'd like to do, is update all the myVarOne values. So the new value for data would be: <settings><myVarOne>newValueHere</myVarOne><myVarTwo>valueTwo</myVarTwo></settings>
This will likely be SQL2000 not SQL2005 but it would be useful to know for both.
I've looked at OPENXML but all the examples seem keen on using sp_xml_preparedocument and then OPENXML needs the @idoc so I'm thinking there is something else.
If someone can point me in the right direction that would be extremely helpful as I haven't found anything that makes sense to me. UpdateGrams seems very overblown for manipulation like this when OPENXML is sooo very close to being correct.
Is it possible to update from one table to another?Pls examine my code here: UPDATE tStaffDir SET tStaffDir.ft_prevemp = ISNULL(tStaffDir_PrevEmp.PrevEmp01, ' ') + ' ' + ISNULL(tStaffDir_PrevEmp.PrevEmp02, ' ') + ' ' + ISNULL(tStaffDir_PrevEmp.PrevEmp03, ' ') + ' ' + ISNULL(tStaffDir_PrevEmp.PrevEmp04, ' ') + ' ' + ISNULL(tStaffDir_PrevEmp.PrevEmp05, ' ') Where tStaffDir_PrevEmp.ID=tStaffDir.ID I am trying to concatenate the columns from tStaffDir_PrevEmp to tStaffDir but I have this error where tStaffDir_PrevEmp is recognised as a column and not a table. Pls advise how this can be done. Many Thanks.
