From what I can see, the 'varbinary(max)' data type is not supported, and the 'image' data type is supposed to go away. Is there some other way to store large chunks (10MB to 100MB) of data into an SSEv DB?
If I have to use the 'image' data type to so this, does anyone have a code sample that would let me push an array() of numbers into an 'image' field, and unload an 'image' field into an array()?
TIA

I'm using a bit-wise comparison to effectively store multiple values in one column. However once the number of values increases it starts to become too big for a int data type.you also cannot perform a bitwise & on two binary datatypes. Is there a better way to store the binary data rather than int or binary?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHi I've followed a tutorial on how to write and read varbinary(max) data to and from a database. But when i try to read the data i get the error that the data would be truncated, but only when the varbinary(max) is greater then 8kB. I've used a system stored procedure (sp_tableoption) to set the table that holds the data to store data outside rows. To select the data i'm using a stored procedure: SELECT imageData , MIMEType FROM Pictures WHERE (imageTitle = @imageTitle) And then using an .aspx page to Response.Write the data:Using conn As New sql.SqlConnection conn.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("myConnectionString").ToString Dim getLogoCommand As New sql.SqlCommand getLogoCommand.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure getLogoCommand.CommandText = "GetPicture" getLogoCommand.Connection = conn Dim imageTitleParameter As New sql.SqlParameter("@imageTitle", Data.SqlDbType.NVarChar, 200) imageTitleParameter.Value = Request("imageTitle") imageTitleParameter.Direction = Data.ParameterDirection.Input getLogoCommand.Parameters.Add(imageTitleParameter) conn.Open() Using logoReader As sql.SqlDataReader = getLogoCommand.ExecuteReader logoReader.Read() If logoReader.HasRows = True Then Response.Clear() Response.ContentType = logoReader("MIMEtype").ToString() Response.BinaryWrite(logoReader("imageData")) End If End Using conn.Close() End Using Can anyone please help me with this?!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am an absolute beginner with SQL Server 2005 Express, and I want to make a new table in my database that stores web URLs and their Username and Password info. When I try to add a URL to the URL column, it says
Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Error Message: String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
I assume this means that the URL is too long to fit in the data type I specified, but I've tried almost every single data type there is, and I keep getting the same error. I was wondering if anyone knew what was wrong.
Thanks for any help.
I am developing a simple ASP based form, that stores user info in MS SQL server. I have created a table in the SQL server to store the data and defined the body field with this line: `body char(255)`. The problem is that if the user inputs a string longer then 255 characters it gets choped off. How would you suggest solving this problem? Should I use `text` datatype instead?? Any comments are very appreciated !!!

Hello, we are investigating the use of SQL Server as a backend to ourscientific imaging application. We have found that when we write alarge image (60 Megabytes) the performance is quite a bit slower thanwriting 60 single megabyte images. The tests were performed runningSQL Server 2000 on Windows 2003 Enterprise on a single machine toeliminate the network's contribution. Perhaps there is a configurationoption that will allow us to tune SQL Server to better handle largewrites?TIA
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am currently importing (and exporting) binary flat files to and from Db fields using the TEXTPTR and UPDATETEXT (or READTEXT for export) functions. This allows me to fetch/send the data in manageable packet sizes without the need to load complete files into RAM first.
Given that some files can be up to 1Gb in size I am keen to find out a new way of doing this since the announcement that TEXTPTR, READTEXT and UPDATETEXT are going to be removed from T-SQL.
I had a quick foray into SSIS but couldn't find anything suitable which brings me back to T-SQL. If anyone knows a nice elegant way of doing this and is prepared to share, that would be grand.
Thanks for your time,

Hi,
I have a text file (5 MB). It appears as a single line in a text editor. But actually it has records of 1500 byte length each.
I want to strip it down to 1500 byte records. So 1500*3500 = 5 MB (approx). The record size is always 1500 bytes.
Does anyone have a script that I can run on this file to achieve this break.
Thanks
I have a table based around requisitions, and each requisition has a number of positions. That number can change over time through updates to pertinent rows rather than through transaction-like records that record an entire history, and I'm only able to get a monthly snapshot of the table. What I decided to do is still use one table for OLAP (fact_requisitions) but add a column called period_key that refers to the month the data comes from. So if I have two months of data then the table has each requisition twice, possibly with differing position counts, and new requisitions from the second month are only present once. Then I tried to filter the MDX query like so:
SELECT {
([Dim TimeRequestClosed].[Year - MonthNumber].[Year_Text].&[2008].&[1],[Dim Requisitions].[Period].[Period Key].&[200801])
}
ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY
{
([Dim Location].[Region Name].MEMBERS, [Dim Location].[Period Key].&[200801])
}
ON ROWS
FROM
[Requisitions]
WHERE
[Measures].[Request Closed Date Count]
This query doesn't work even though the data is there, it just returns nulls. Am I going about this all wrong? If not, what might I be doing wrong, and how would I get the query to return more than one period (e.g. tell Dim Requisition to match up with Dim Location on the period key)?

I have a well-structured but also very large binary data-set that is generated by a C++ application every five minutes. The data needs to be accessed by SQL applications. Since data is generated every five minutes, performance is key, both for write and read. The data set is about 500MB.If data is written to the file system, the write performance doesn't involve SQL server. For reading it, I have a CLR to read the portions of the data that I need based on offset and length. That works and is very fast. The problem is that data is stored in the file system, so it is not self-contained within the database.
A second option that I haven't explored yet, is to write the data into a table as VARBINARY(MAX). I would read the data using SUBSTRING with appropriate offset and length. Performance of SQL write/read of binary data of this size, and whether there is a third option I haven't thought off. I'm using SQL Server 2014.

I am wondering if tempdb stores all results tempararily whenever I query a large fact table with over 4 million records which joins another dimension table? Since each time when I run the query, the tempdb grows to nearly 1GB which nearly runs out all the space on my local system drive, as a result the performance totally down. Is there any way to fix this problem? Thanks a lot in advance and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly for your kind advices.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
String or binary data would be truncated. I get this error when entering data using sql server management studio express.
I am not running a sql to insert or update the table. This is through the EDI.
The data type is varchar(100). I enter one character and it errors on me. So this isn't a string being too long problem.
Any ideas?
When using AquaData or JDBC (inet tds driver), when doing an insert using SqlServer 2005, I get error "String or binary data would be truncated" when the data is actually OK. There are no triggers, etc. that would confuse the situation. It works fine in SqlServer 2000.
The scenario is as follows:
Create table:
create table test3 (
name varchar (18) ,
tbname varchar (18)
)
Create and populate table:
create table maxtable (
tablename varchar (18) not null,
[...]
)
Try to insert into test3:
insert into test3 (name, tbname)
select i.name, o.name
from dbo.sysindexes i, sysobjects o, maxtable m
where i.indid > 0 and i.indid < 255
and i.id = o.id and i.indid = 1
and o.name = lower(m.tablename)
And I get the error "String or binary data would be truncated." The values being selected for i.name and o.name have maximum length of 18. There are other rows in sysindexes and sysobjects with longer values, but they are not being selected.
The error does not occur with SQL Server Management Studio, and does not occur using SqlServer 2000.

I have a table with 10 rows with a varbinary column
I wish to concatenate all the binary column into a single binary column and then write that to another table within the database. This application splits a binary file (Word or PDF document) into multiple segments (this is Column2 as below)
example as follows
TableA
Column1 Column2 Column3
aaa 001 <some binary value>
aaa 002 <some binary value>
aaa 003 <some binary value>
aaa 004 <some binary value>
aaa 005 <some binary value>
desired results in TableB
Column1 Column2
aaa <concatenated value of above binary columns>
I have a table that's 25,000,000 records... about 10 fields. I need to export this data to a flat file in no more than 500,000 record chunks. I've tried the following algorithm, adding a flag field called "exported" with default value 0.
do:
- mark random 500,000 records, setting exported = -1
- export everything in that table where exported = -1
- set exported = 1 where exported = -1
loop
This was pretty slow, taking about 10 hours last night to run.
I find myself wanting a sort of a split dataset task in SSIS, being able to split records a chunk of records out of a dataset and handle them. Anyone have ideas for me?
I need to export records to a flat file using a dataflow task, but want no more than 50,000 records in each file. What's the best way to automate this?

Any help will be appreciated.
I am trying to store a byte array in a database. I want to use binary to store the data but I am confused about the type. The byte array I am trying to store is a password hash from SHA512.
I hash a plain text value then store the result in a byte array. I then want to store the byte array in the database as binary but I am confused when its asking for the size of the binary field. In nvarchar a size of 2 would mean 2 characters.
How should I choose the size of this binary field, and what does the size mean. If I choose a size of 6 does that mean 6 characters, like 010110. Or is it stored differently?
The maximum size of a plain text password is 30 characters, and the salt used to generate the SHA512 hash has a maximum size of 16, but I don't know the exact size of the salt because its randomly picked when the salt is generated.
I need to make sure the size of my binary field will hold the largest possible password hash, but I don't want it too large so its never completely used.
How is this data stored in the binary field, and what size binary field should I choose to make sure there are no problems with the password hash being truncated, yet making sure I'm not just wasting by creating a field thats too large.
Thanks!
