hi,
how to avoid single quote character in string which comes from textbox in insert query
I ran a large query and exported it to xls. In Excel, I noticed a value of '2.00E+01'. I formatted the Excel cell and then got a value of '20'. I searched for the record in SQL Server 2008, ya I know, ancient. The value is '2E1' which excel is seeing as scientific notation.
Can I use a case statement that when an 'E' is present to add a single prefix quote like '2E1? Or perhaps do it for the whole column? Or put put double quotes around the whole field?
How do I insert a single quote ' into a table? For example:Insert mytable values (1,''')I get an error message.Any ideas? The server does not recognize double quote (why? is thistsql, ansi?), otherwise I could have written it as:Insert mytable values (1,"'")Thanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using SQL Server 2005, I have a NVarChar parameter called @Text that I use to build a dynamic Where clause for my SELECT Statement.
SET @l_Where = @l_Where + N' AND (StatusDesc LIKE ''' + Replace(@Text, "'", "''") + N'%'')'
This gives me an invalid column error.
How do I replace the single quotes in @Text with 2 Single Quotes?
TIA,Jason
I have 2 SQL 6.5 databases on separate servers. Server A replicates a text field into a table on server B.
On server A the field contains text similar to THIS IS FRED'S HOUSE. After replication to Server B it looks like THIS IS FRED''S HOUSE. The distribution database also has it as THIS IS FRED''S HOUSE. Using ODBC trace I cannot see the value being passed in the text field as it is displayed as a question mark e.g. ?.
How do I fix the problem ?
Thanks
How do I update a record with a string containing a single quote ' ???
SET Row=' charlies' dilemma ' doesn't work since the string gets cut in half
Hi everyone -
Here is the setup -
new install, same old software
only difference is the machine name has
a single quote (apostrophy) in the name...
xyz's
Now - a portion of the application is failing -
the starting of the application runs ok,
and the system is indeed seeing the database
(it allowed the user to log in)
so the connection string seems to be ok - just in that
one part...
does anyone know if the machine name with an embedded
apostrophy will cause the ADO connection string to puke???
vb6
MSDE
thanks

Hi,
I am trying to concatenate single quotation mark (ie- ' ) in the select query but not succeed.
If I concatenate word India's, how should I have to write the select query..?
Its just query I have not concern with any specific database.
Hi,
i am trying to add a single quote to a string. This is a must because i am making a full select statement in which i need the single quote to compare values. Obviously this breaks my string invalidating my query.
ej:
SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value) as valor, FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) as tiempo
FROM TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916AI31_43 tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2
WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = 'Alimentacion Digestores' and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time
group by FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))
and this will become something like this.
SELECT @TableName = 'TESTLAB5.dbo.'+@TableName
SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value), FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) FROM '
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @TableName
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = '@NombreVar'and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' group by FLOOR(Cast(ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))'
the @NombreVar is the equivalence of 'Alimentacion Digestores'.
is there something i can add or change to make it work ?
Hi Guys,
I have a problem with one of my apps. The apps was written long long time ago in C++ and uses SQL server 7
The problem is that when the users key in some data with single quote in it the query failed, obviously. Is there any way that SQL Server automaticaly manages this kind of Insert/Update statements ?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Faisal.
I'm inserting a row of people's names and addresses to a table. This seems to work great, unless the person has ' in their name, for example O' Riordan. When the address has single quote (such as Wilder's Path), I'd get the same error, unclosed quote when inserting the row.
What would be the best way to work around this, other than read the line and replace it with a space.

Hello,

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a Character string so that I can execute dynamic SQL.
The date is going to change.
DECLARE @Select VARCHAR (50)

I get the following error:
Invalid object name 'RDB_DWH_ASSOCIATE_ENTITY'.
We have a .NET drop down, which gets populated as the user types in letters(last name). If the user types in the single quote we get the error about not escaping the single quote. Question is, which way would it be easier to fix, in the .NET code or in the SQL procedure? I am not to sure if we have full access to the source code since that is a 3rd party control, so if that is not feasible how would I fix that in the stored procedure? This is the current proc that we are using:
Code Snippet
select @str = 'SELECT DISTINCT TOP ' + @Top + ' e.DisplayName
as DbComboText,
e.EmployeeID as DbComboValue
FROM DepartmentDirectory.dbo.Employees ee
INNER JOIN DataMart.dbo.Employees e ON ee.UIN = e.UIN
WHERE e.LastName like ''' + @LastName + ''' AND e.FirstName like ''' + @FirstName + '''
ORDER BY e.DisplayName'
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I can think of ways to resolve this issue, but I am wondering if there is a standard practice or some setting that is used to ensure that text containing a single quote, such as "Bob's house", is passed correctly to the database when using a SqlDataSource with all of the default behavior.
For example, I have a FormView setup with some text fields and a SqlDataSource that is used to do the insert. There is no code in the form currently. It works fine unless I put in text with a single quote, which of course messes up the insert or update. What is the best way to deal with this?
Thank you
I have a ssis package created in VS2005 that transforms a SQL query result into an excel spreadsheet. The DataFlow uses a DataReaderSource to query the data and an ExcelDestination to transform the data. The problem is that in the resulting spreadsheet any columns containing string data have a single quote inserted in front of the data. So a string like [My data] becomes ['My data]. When I preview it in the Excel Destination Editor it looks right (without the single quote). What is happening here, is it a bug or does something need to be configured. I checked all the properties that I could find. This is working nice, if I could only overcome this problem.

I've a weird problem in my application. In of the pages, while trying to update the text box "Name", when I enter Linda's test, it gets saved as Linda''s test. I'm not sure if this is a problem due to SQL server. When I look at the stored procedure, I don't anything different. Also, when I update the table directly in SQL Server, the result is displayed in single quote. But if I update the field thro' the application, the returned name is with double quotes instead of single quote. Has any of you faced problems like this? What am I missing? What do I need to do to get the name saved the way I entered (with single quotes) instead of double quotes?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I'm having trouble importing a CSV file into SQL using SSIS. The trouble seems to stem from truncation and from quote encapsulated fields.
Firstly it's worth noting that some of the data within the quotes contains the separator. E.g.
12,"some text, and a comma",34
Thankfully SSIS seems to cope with that by specifying " as the Text Qualifier. My next problem was that the SSIS Import and Export Wizard gave an error: "failed because truncation occurred". But I fixed this by specifying the OutputColumnWidth for the NCHAR and NVARCHAR type columns to be the width from the table definition.
But now I have another problem with the length of fields. Consider the following where the center column is NCHAR (22)
101,"some text, and a comma",303
102,"some ""quoted text"" bye",303
The first row has the correct width (once the encapsulating quotes are stripped out), but the second row does not, because it seems that when I exported the table the export wizard escaped the quote characters within encapsulated strings using quote characters. So I am back to getting the "truncation occurred" error. How can I get around this within SSIS?
Cheers,
Tim.

Hi, I am new to ASP.NET and Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, which I run on Windows Vista. I am currently going through some of the tutorial videos on http://www.asp.net/learn/videos/ . I encountered an error in Lesson 04 and I would have ignored it but it keeps haunting me and now I cannot proceed with the lesson 09 all because of the same error. I would really appreciate it if somebody could help me resolve this because it.

Using a language that using A4GL to connect to the database. From within the language(COBOL) we have the ability to add a simple query. All is fine with one exception. Some of the fields might have a quote mark in it.
we have a field in particular that a lot of our clients like to put an apostrophe in. such as 0001A'06, 2'11" and so on. Now from inside our programs and using the simple query we add something like 'where ap_id = '0001A'06' which i know is an error but is there a way around this or a way to make it work?

How can I do that? Is it possible to do it in 1 query?
