This below code is saying 0 is equal to space .How can I avoid this situation.It is saying 'a is blank' but i have assigned var @a as a 0.
DECLARE @a int =0
IF @a =''
BEGIN
SELECT 'a is blank'
END
ELSE
SELECT 'a is not blank'
Is there any way to check whether the password for existing sql authentication login is blank? (except trying to connect)
Where can I find information about how the passwords are stored internally in SQL Server?
i have a trigger on a table right now... when fields are inserted, theres a text field inserted and i want to check if that text field = '' (the empty string, not NULL) and if it doesn't equal that, then perform some row updates on other tables, but if it is empty, to not do anything else in the trigger... right now i have this:
Code:
IF ((SELECT Note FROM XATPoDetail WHERE ReqNbr = (SELECT ReqNbr FROM Inserted)) LIKE(''))
Note is the text field, XATPoDetail is the table where its being inserted into. I had to do the select FROM the table because it wouldn't let me select a text data type from the "Inserted" virtual table
but it tells me me "Error 279: The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression"
thanks

Hi,

which is not the right thing.
i would like to retain the blank in conversion from char to float ,
please explain me if it can be done or how to overcome this issue.

I have multiple ODBC connection and how to check all connection automatically during routine check by using batch file.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am writing a two step process where the record is created and half of the fields are populated. The second step will populate the remaining fields. Between steps they will run queries against the table and the empty fields are <NULL>.When the field is <NULL> it won't return data on "WHERE Field LIKE '%'". I could just pass "" as data to the remaining fields however since MS SQL allows you to set a default value on a field. Is it possible to set the default value to a blank instead of <NULL>. This would help keep my code a little more streamline.
Or is there an easy way to write a fuzzy search that will include <NULL> fields.
Thanks

All,
I have a report with a document map and when I run the report through
IE 7.0, the Document Map is blank. Running that same report through IE
6.0 and it is fine.
Both instances are run against the same server via Report Viewer so
there is no difference other than the client IE version.
Anyone know of a work around for this?
Thanks,

Is this a known issue - blank spaces caused by KeepTogether property being implicity set for Lists/Subreports/Rectangles in Reporting Services? If so, will there be a fix soon?
Good Morning friends. I am using MS SQL Server Reporting Services version 9.00.2047.00 and I have a problem and i would like your help:
I have one report (Cuadro de Mando) and 4 subreports (subquadro, subquadro2, subquadro3, subquadro4):
Note: Nome of the subreports above, have a page break after showing the records and neither the report. The subreports are perfectly designed in the main report (Cuadro de Mando).
There is no space free between the desgin of the 4 subreports.
Each subreport are designed in only one page. I tested each one of the subreports individually and the preview of each is ok in olnly one page.
But when i test the report (€śCuadro de Mando€?) with contains the 4 subreports, one page in blank always appears between the previous page and the next page of the 4 subreports.
What can we do to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I start SQL Server Management Studio (Sql 2005), a blank dialog box pops up with nothing in it. The title in the dialog box is "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio" and it has a yellow triangle with an explanation point in it but there is no message just an OK button.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhy would some of my servers that I have registered not show a green arrow (or any connection status for that matter). It's just a blank white circle. Is there some sort of connection error happening between me and the server?
It's sort of annoying to click on these servers and have the error "SQL Server xxxx is not known to be running. Are you sure you wish to connect?" Any way to get around that?

Hi All,
I put a blank or ‘0’ in one of column of a text file and then I used BCP to load this file to a table of SQL server 6.5. The field in SQL server table is char type with size 1. After I run this process, all rows with this column received ‘0’ and no blank or null at a black value place. Could you please help me to fix this problem and make some of rows in the column get a blank or null value.
TIA.

Hi:
I did the following query on SQL Server A and got the following result.
Input: select replace('10/10/00', '/', '')
Result: 101000
(1 row(s) affected)
However, I did the same query on SQL B and got a different result.
Input: select replace('10/10/00', '/', '')
Output: 10 10 00
(1 row(s) affected)
Both Servers are SQL 7.0 with SP2. I checked the setting, it seems to be identical. Does anyone know what could be the problem or have any hint what I need to check?
I beleieve the correct result should be the first result.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I am just wondering if anyone could let me know what happens in a SQL Server job step if the "Database" field is left blank?
Regardless of whether or not it's blank does it use some sort of database as its default?
If anyone could pont me to any material on the web it would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks,
I just installed the SSMS for 2005 Express and cannot view any SQL Server Logs. I see Current and Archive #1,#2 etc but the right pane is blank.
