How To Parse Sentences Into Words
Jul 20, 2005
Hi all,
I have a table of text and associated data. I want to break apart the text
into individual words, yet retain the data in other columns. For example:
Sentence: Chapter:
--------------------------
I like cats. 1
Joe likes dogs. 2
Should become:
Word: Chapter:
--------------------------
I 1
like 1
cats 1
Joe 2
likes 2
dogs. 2
Are there built-in SQL parsing functions, If not, what text handling
features would be most useful for building them?
Thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to build a several tables using sql ce 3.1
I refer to the manual on Create Table:
ms-help://MS.SSCE.v31.EN/ssmprog3/html/143cad25-5c1d-4c96-bd8b-6a95dbfb1b00.htm
The sample:
CREATE TABLE MyCustomers (CustID int IDENTITY (100,1) PRIMARY KEY,
CompanyName nvarchar (50))
just simply doesn't work displaying this error:
SQL Execution Error
Executed statement: CREATE TABLE MyCustomers (CustID int IDENTITY (100,1) PRIMARY KEY,
CompanyName nvarchar (50))
Error Source: SQL Server Compact Edition ADO.Net Data Provider
Error Message: There was an error parsing the query. [Token line number =1,
Token line offset 40, Token in error=IDENTITY]
I tested against a SQL Desktop, everything is OK.
What's wrong with the sentence?
Please some advise or workaround will be appreciated
Thanks

Hi I'm using the full-text indexing on a table and I'm trying to implement a search where users can search for words and use wildcards themselves. However I'm working on a method so that can enter a wildcard in the middle of a word to get records where they are unsure of the spelling etc.
For instance, a search of 'Ste*en' should return results like 'Steven' and 'Stephen' etc. So if they are searching for word 'establishment' they can search for 'estab*ment' and it should return all the records using this query:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*ment"')
If I do a wildcard at the end e.g: SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*"')
I get the results I am looking for. But the middle wildcard does not seem to work as expected even though it is the syntax used on MSDN and other SQL info sites.
Is there something I am not doing properly?

Hi There,
I've created a couple of search pages which look at sql server. whenever words or values like "?@~:&£^" etc, or words like for, the and so forth, the page the nasrty error page:
Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words.
In short: is there a way I can stop it doing this. It looks rather horrible. I've looked at form validation but cant find anything that seems to fit. I would imagine there is a simple solution, but I haven't been able to find it so far.
Many thanks
Stuart

How can you search for the occurance of a whole word in a string? but not return any results that have the word as a substring.
For instance, if I search for the term 'scene' in a column. Then it will only return rows that have the word 'scene' and not those with the word 'scenery'. I've tried the following sql, but it relies on having text either side of the word as well. If the word 'scene' is on the begining or end of the cell then it is not returned.
SELECT Name, Description
FROM tblWine
WHERE Name LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z]scene[^a-zA-Z]%'
OR Description LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z]scene[^a-zA-Z]%'
Any ideas?

Hi,
Is it possible with SQL Server 2005 to include ignored words in a full-text search? For example, searching for "in force as of"? This gives the same results as searching for "force" only. I've tried to empty the ignored words list (noiseENG.txt), but this does not seem to have any effect.
Also we want to be able to search for strings such as "205/1305-2". Searching with punctuation characters in a query seems to be a problem.
What are the possibillities in SQL Server 2005 with regard to these problems?

Can someone point me in the right direction to write a select query to return the first 10 whole words from a table?
For example, table "testtable" contains a field named "description" with value "here is some test data in order to select the first full ten words from."
The SELECT statement would return the value "here is some test data in order to select the".
Thanks in advance!

I am fairly new to SQL and am trying to write a function to parse the ip address into 4 sections. I have been searching through the forums to see if anyone has a posted example of parsing an ip address but could not find one.
I am wondering what would be the best method of doing this, or if anyone has an example.

Hi All!
I have a table, tblstudents that has the fields strfirstname and strlastname. The table was imported from MS Acess where they were storing the first name and the lastname in the same field. Sucks doesn't it? Anyway, I need to write a script to extract the first name from the lastname and insert it into the first name field which is blank. So far I figure I can use select into, but need to find a way to tell sql server to take the fart of the field after the comma (the first name) and to delete the comma becuase I won't need it anymore.
Help!
Select '%,' into tblclients as strfirstname from tblclients
I know this won't work, but I want to show you all I'm at least trying!

This script parses the @@VERSION global variable into individual columns.
I developed it because I wanted to be able gather standard info on all versions.
I know there are functions for a lot of this, but only starting with SQL 2000.
It seems to work with all versions of SQL Server from 7.0 through 2005.
I haven't tested with 6.5 and before or 2008, because I don't have either available.
Please report any problems you see.

I need to build a search function for my site. So there is a single text box for the users to type in their search string. I have been asked that I need to break the user's search string into separate words. So if the user enters: "This is my search query", I need to break it into: "This" "is" "my" "search" "query" and then search for all these words.- Can I break a string into separet words using SQL?- How do I remove funny / dangerous characters from the search string?- If I have to break the search string using a programming language, I would have to run the search query for each word. If I run the search query for each word, How do I combine the search result for the user. For instance, if I search for "my" and find some result, then search for "search" and find some results, how do I display a SINGLE search result to the user.thanks

I am try to build a query which only matches whole words and so far I've got this.
Code:
SELECT *
FROM tblSearchWords
WHERE CorrectSpelling LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z0-9]blah[^a-zA-Z0-9]%'
This will return rows which contain the string 'blah' without any numeric or alphanumeric characters beside it. However it doesn't return the rows where 'blah' is either at the start or end of the string as it expects any character except a-zA-Z0-0.
Is there any way to accept string when there is nothing on either side as well?
Thanks,

Hello all. I've been pulling my hair out for the last few weeks trying to come up with a statement that will do what I want. I'm hoping someone can lend some help.
Basically I have a table of articles with titles. I want to go thru the titles and find out what words show up the most. For example, if I had these two article titles in two records:
Microsoft develops new software for NASA
NASA blames software problem on Microsoft
I would get the following results - the word and the number of times it appears:
Microsoft 2
NASA 2
Software 2
The statement should ignore those words that only appear once. It would be nice to skip static words like the, and, a, etc.. (Or words 3 characters or less)
I have fulltext query enabled on the table which works great for searching, but not for what I want it to do.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi!
I have a client who wants to have a function to have a system create a validation system for users who register for a system. It would email them a registration code, which they want to be two or three random words strewn together.
So, I'm looking for a big table of words - random, glossary terms, etc. Does anyone have anything like this? (A flat file that I can import would be fine.)
Thanks!

Hi,
for some reason, i had to write a function to count the number of words in a particular column in a table. (pl find the attachment). i would like to know whether there is any other mechanism with which we can count the number of words in a particular column.
for example, if the column data is,'This Is A Test', the function, will return 4.
pl suggest any other efficient strategies to accomplish this
thanks

This works when @searchString is used in containstable (provided searchString has value)...
set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchString + ' AND ' + @searchStringNoneOfWords
This does NOT work when @searchString is used in containstable...
set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchStringNoneOfWords
I understand it is because the syntax is AND NOT, but what if I have a list of words that I do not want included? How do I start out with a NOT using containstable? It is kind of like Google's advanced search except that if you enter a word in the "without words" section with the other fields blank it would return everything under the sun except for things found with those words.
