I am saving large text document in an image type of column in a SQL Server 2000 table. How will I set up searching of words/ phrases for data stored in this column?
Hi, Does anyone know how to deal with image data type within stored procedure when using SQL2000? I have a table and there is an image data type column. In this table I need to make a copy of one row within a table through a SP /it means to retrieve the whole row within SP, change another columns data (but, that the image is not modified) / and save the modified row back to the same table. Problem is, that within SP is not alowed to use local varaibles of image data type. Does anyone know a solution for this? Please. Thank you.
The ERP manufacturer used an image data type to store large text data fields. I am trying to move these data types from one database to another database using either Sql Queries or MS Access. I can cast them as an 8000 char varchar to read them directly but have no luck importing into these image data fields.
Access and Crystal are not able to read these fields directly.
Any suggestions? Most information about these fields has to do with loading files but I am just moving data.

I have inherited a VS 2005 database with a table that has a column of type IMAGE. I need to change the image for one of the rows in the table. I have the new image in a *.PNG file on my C: drive. What is the correct method for inserting this file into the IMAGE column.
I'm new to SSIS and have run into a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with.
Basically, I have a flat file that looks something like:
ID,Type,Description,Results 1,Test1,This is a test,5 2,Test1,This is also a 1 test,7 3,Test1,This is also a 1 test,13 4,Test2,This is a second test,14 5,Test2,This is also a second test,18
I'm trying to normalize the data by extracting out individual rows that have the same "Type" column value. So what I want is to extract each unique type and description into a separate table. This would give me two new rows, one for a type of Test1, and one for a type of Test2, with the descriptions. Does this make sense? Then I could relate the individual results to these test types. In my scenario, I don't care which description is used; I just want to take the first description that shows up with the associated "Type."
Does anyone have any idea of how I could go about doing this? I could pull out all unique "Types" from the rows with the Aggregate transformation, but I'm trying to figure out how to get the description that goes along with it.
Hi, I have a script written in ASP to load data file (.csv) to ms sql. In the script, I have a portion of script looks like taht : ..... Do While NOT oInFile.AtEndOfStream oOutFile.WriteLine Replace(oInFile.Readline, chr(13), vbcrlf)Loop ..... After that, I will use a BULK INSERT to input data to ms sql. I am wondering how do I convert each row (data) to vbcrlf in Stored Procedure? Coz' I did not compose the convertion part, and I got no error when running BULK INSERT, but no rows are inserted :( HELP!!!! I guess it's because the file is not being converted into a correct format??

hi, i'm a student doing my final year project. during the user requirements stage, my client proposed storing all files (.doc, .jpg, .mp3) into the sql database. i found out that the way to do this is to write the files as binary data in order to store them in the database. my concern is will this data storage overload the database server? i read somewhere that the retrieval of data as binary data is the same as retrieving text. but the estimation of users is around 27,000.. if i'm not wrong, the sql database server should be MS SQL Server 2005, or at least 2003.

Recently really big files have been introduced in the DB, could this related to the issue?
I'm using ODBC to interface a Microsoft SQL Server 2000. One of theoperations involves placing files within BLOBs. I'm using the imagedata type for this purpose. Most of the time this works okey, but whentrying to add a 21,3 MB file I get an error. The error code is 22001,which means "String right-truncation". But why? Does this mean thatthe field cannot accepts BLOBs with this size?
