Help!
I found about a dozen samples and articles in the net about inserting images in a sql database, but they were either using VB, or asp only or SQL 2000 and although I tried them all, none worked...
Can you help me by posting some code on how to insert images in SQL 2005, using C# in Visual Studio 2005 (asp.net 2.0)
Thanks.
Hey all,I'm working on a database which (I hope) will have photos in it. However, I'm having difficulty how to properly insert photos into an SQL database. I see that it has an 'image' data-type, but I don't know how to make proper use it.Given that the answer to this question could be quite lengthy, if someone could provide me a link to somewhere, or a book to pick up that could answer this answer, I would be most gratified. Thanks!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

Hi All:
I'm new to using sql express 2005 as the database, so I apologize if my question is very basic.
I can connect to db through sql mngmt studio, but I don't know how to connect through application code. The authentication mode is windows. I'm having trouble with the provider in the application code.
Can someone please tell me where I can find more detailed information on available providers for sql express?
Thanks for any help, as I'm against a tight deadline.

Hi all,
I have the following T-SQL code of Common Table Express (CTE) that works in the SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE):
--CTE.sql--
USE ChemAveRpd
GO
WITH PivotedLabTests AS

SELECT LT.AnalyteName, LT.Unit,
Prim = MIN(CASE S.SampleType WHEN 'Primary' THEN LT.Result END),
Dupl = MIN(CASE S.SampleType WHEN 'Duplicate' THEN LT.Result END),
QA = MIN(CASE S.SampleType WHEN 'QA' THEN LT.Result END)
FROM LabTests LT
JOIN Samples S ON LT.SampleID = S.SampleID
GROUP BY LT.AnalyteName, LT.Unit
)
SELECT AnalyteName, Unit, avg1 = (abs(Prim + Dupl)) / 2,
avg2 = (abs(Prim + QA)) / 2,
avg3 = (abs(Dupl + QA)) / 2,
RPD1 = (abs(Prim - Dupl) / abs(Prim + Dupl)) * 2,
RPD2 = (abs(Prim - QA) / abs(Prim + QA)) * 2,
RPD3 = (abs(Dupl - QA) / abs(Dupl + QA)) * 2
FROM PivotedLabTests
GO
===========================================
How can I execute this set of the CTE.sql code in the VB 2005 Express via the Stored Procedure programming?
Please help and respond.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
We're currently developing an application against SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition. Recently, we've started to consider deploying certain installations against SQL Server Express. We're particularly worried about some stored procedures we've written taking advantages of features which will not be available in SQL Server Express, is there a simple compliance tool or such that we can scan our existing tables/functions/stored procedures/etc with to identify potential pitfalls when running on SQL Server Express?
Thanks,
Jeremy

When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:

Hi,
I'm trying to learn some VB programming with the VB 2005 Express Absolute Beginner Series video tutorials (which I think is great) and have come across a problem that I can't solve.
When I follow the instructions in Lesson 9 (Databinding Data to User Interface Controls) my application will display the data from the database correctly and I can edit it (and as long as the debugger is running the data remains changed). However, the changes won't propagate back to the database. I don't get any error messages but after I edit the data, save (with the save button on the BindingNavigator toolbar), and end debugging the data in my database remains unchanged. When I use a MessageBox to show how many rows where edited/updated in the
Me.myTableTableAdapter.Update(Me.myDatabaseDataSet.myTable)
I get the correct number back. I'm sure the problem is not due to coding errors since I've also tried running the accompanying Lesson 9 project file that can be downloaded from MSDN and the problem persists.
I'm using Windows XP SP2, SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and VB 2005 Express Edition. I've tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express with a number of different settings, including default settings, but it doesn't make any difference.
Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this as I'm keen to resolve this problem so I can get on with the next tutorial lesson.
Thanks,
Ieyasu

im having an issue with sql server 2005 express on a test box. in recent testing, ive encountered errors with the database that i havent encountered before. im trying to use an app to add records to some tables in a database, 1 record at a time. but in doing so i get this
"The transaction log for database 'ScanOrder2' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases"
with every insert of a record.
this process was working fine 2 days ago and i cant find anything
thats been changed.
- i deleted the database and tried restoring it from a backup that is
known to work, but still has the issue
- the recovery model is set to simple. every night a batch script is
run to truncate the log file in case there is a transaction that uses
a lot of records
- i can insert and delete records manually with no problems (ie going
in through SSMSE and highlighting a row and deleting it or adding
random data) but i still cant add it through the app
- the log file is set to autogrow unrestricted at 10 megs at a time.
- i even tried setting the log file to 500 megs starting size, and
still couldnt even insert 1 record
- when i check the log_reuse_wait_desc, it says NOTHING, when not
running and while running.
is there any other setting i could be missing that might attribute to
this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis problem only occurs after deployment, not when debugging. In the table I am having a problem with I have an ID field designated as the primary key with the identity increment set to 1 and the identity seed set to 1.

Hi all,
In the VB 2005 Express, I can get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString of a Database "shcDB" in the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) by the following set of code:
///--CallshcSpAdoNetVB2005.vb--////
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub InsertNewFriend()
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
.......................................
etc.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
If the Database "shcDB" and the Stored Procedure "sp_inertNewRecord" are in the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express, I plan to use "Data Source=local" in the following code statements to get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString:
.........................
........................
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=local;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
........................
etc.
Is the "Data Source=local" statement right for this case? If not, what is the right code statement for my case?
Please help and advise.
Thanks,

I can't use DTS nor DTSwizard as I need to put it in a .sql and run it through a command line via .bat file (it's more for the users).
Each row ends with an EOL character, the fields are all fixed width, but I have a little problem here, some rows are empty but just with a EOL character.
How shall I go about it?
many thanks! :D
I'm trying to set up a BULK INSERT Format File for some data that I've been sent, which, according to the data documentation, comes in fixed-width format fields (no delimiters except for end-of-row 0D0A) in SQL-Server 2005 Express.
The following is the first line...
"7999163 09182003 56586 56477 3601942 1278 22139 1102 113 118 51450 1 1 63535647 10000
7999162 09182003 56586 56477 3601942 1279 22139 1102 113 118 51450 1 1 63535647 10000 "
Looking with a hex editor, all the above whitespace are 20's.
From the documentation, I've constructed the following table...
CREATE TABLE MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
(
TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
DB_CREATE_DATE CHAR (8),
DB_UPDATED_DATE CHAR (8),
CREATE_DATE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
ORDER_DATE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PATIENT_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
ORDER_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PROVIDER_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
LOCATION_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
ORDER_TYPE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
STATUS_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PRIMARY_INSURANCE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
EXISTENCE NUMERIC (1,0),
DURATION NUMERIC (4,0),
NUMBER_OF_VISITS NUMERIC (3,0),
ACTIVITY_TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
AGE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0)
)
To Bulk Insert this, I've written the following...
BULK INSERT MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
FROM 'E:MDataOrder_F.txt'
WITH
(
FORMATFILE = 'E:MDataOrder_F_format.txt'
)
and written the following format file...
9.0
17
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 1 TRACER_ID ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 8 "" 2 DB_CREATE_DATE ""
3 SQLCHAR 0 8 "" 3 DB_UPDATED_DATE ""
4 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 4 CREATE_DATE_KEY ""
5 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 5 ORDER_DATE_KEY ""
6 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 6 PATIENT_KEY ""
7 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 7 ORDER_KEY ""
8 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 8 PROVIDER_KEY ""
9 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 9 LOCATION_KEY ""
10 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 10 ORDER_TYPE_KEY ""
11 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 11 STATUS_KEY ""
12 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 12 PRIMARY_INSURANCE_KEY ""
13 SQLNUMERIC 0 1 "" 13 EXISTENCE ""
14 SQLNUMERIC 0 4 "" 14 DURATION ""
15 SQLNUMERIC 0 3 "" 15 NUMBER_OF_VISITS ""
16 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 16 ACTIVITY_TRACER_ID ""
17 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "
" 17 AGE_KEY ""
However... actually running this gives the following error...
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 13 (EXISTENCE).
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
Since this is my first time with this, I read the BOL items on Bulk Insert, Format Files, and each of the formatting attibutes, and made up two line "toy" examples for SQLCHAR and SQLINT, including two columns - all worked as expected.
It seemed that only SQLNUMERIC/SQLDECIMAL fell apart.
Even the following trivial example doesn't work for this field of data...
"7999163 "
CREATE TABLE MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
(
TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0)
)
and
9.0
1
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 " " 1 TRACER_ID ""
or
9.0
1
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 1 TRACER_ID ""
which give this error...
Msg 9803, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

I'm trying to set up a BULK INSERT Format File for some data that I've been sent, which, according to the data documentation, comes in fixed-width format fields (no delimiters except for end-of-row 0D0A) in SQL-Server 2005 Express.
The following is the first line...
"7999163 09182003 56586 56477 3601942 1278 22139 1102 113 118 51450 1 1 63535647 10000

Looking with a hex editor, all the above whitespace are 20's.
From the documentation, I've constructed the following table...
CREATE TABLE MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
(
TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
DB_CREATE_DATE CHAR (8),
DB_UPDATED_DATE CHAR (8),

DURATION NUMERIC (4,0),
NUMBER_OF_VISITS NUMERIC (3,0),
ACTIVITY_TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
AGE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0)
)
To Bulk Insert this, I've written the following...
BULK INSERT MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
FROM 'E:MDataOrder_F.txt'
WITH
(
FORMATFILE = 'E:MDataOrder_F_format.txt'
)
and written the following format file...

This is what I have done.
1. Installed VB.NET IDE 2008 and SQL Server Compact 2005. IDE requires upgrade of database to 3.0 version which I allowed it to do. After the database was upgraded, I did an amount of coding work in the IDE and then tried to go back to do more database work in SQL. However the database then could not be opened in SQL Server Compact 2005. An error said that because it had been upgraded, it could not be read. It was requiring me to run 'upgrade.exe'. I had no idea what this meant and could find no upgrade available online.
2. Removed VB.NET IDE 2008 and installed 2005 instead. However, the file extension on the SQL Server Compact database is .sdf, but the IDE is requiring a .mdf extension. I have tried everything I can think of to get it to save or to have the desired extension, but I cannot.
Questions:
1. Do SQL Express 2005 and VB Studio Express 2008 work together?
2. If so, how?
It seems as though application each requires a different version of the database. If the database is usable in one, it is not usable in another.
Thanks for the help.

I have a 2005 Express DB I wish to attach to using the 2005 Mgt Studio Client (Not the express version, but the full blown 2005 Mgt Studio Client from the SQL 2005 Standard Edition Install disk). Can this be done, or can I only use the 2005 Mgt Studio Express Edition Client?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all--I'm trying to convert a function which I inherited from a SQL Server 2000 DTS package to something usable in an SSIS package in SQL Server 2005. Given the original code here:
Function Main()
on error resume next
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set rs = DTSGlobalVariables("SQLstring").value
for i = 1 to rs.RecordCount
sSQL = rs.Fields(0).value
cn.Execute sSQL, , 128 'adExecuteNoRecords option for faster execution
rs.MoveNext
Next
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
This code was originally programmed in the SQL Server ActiveX Task type in a DTS package designed to take an open-ended number of SQL statements generated by another task as input, then execute each SQL statement sequentially. Upon this code's success, move on to the next step. (Of course, there was no additional documentation with this code. :-)
Based on other postings, I attempted to push this code into a Visual Studio BI 2005 Script Task with the following change:
public Sub Main()
...
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Class
I get the following error when I attempt to compile this:
Error 30209: Option Strict On requires all variable declarations to have an 'As' clause.
I am new to Visual Basic, so I'm on a learning curve here. From what I know of this script:
- The variables here violate the new Option Strict On requirement in VS 2005 to declare what type of object your variable is supposed to use.
- I need to explicitly declare each object, unless I turn off the Option Strict On (which didn't seem recommended, based on what I read).
Given this statement:
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
I'm looking at "i" as type Integer; rs and sSQL are open-ended arrays, but can't quite figure out how to read the code here:
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
This code seems to create an instance of a COM component, then pass provider information and create the recordset being passed in by the previous task, but am not sure whether this syntax is correct for VS 2005 or what data type declaration to make here. Any ideas/help on how to rewrite this code would be greatly appreciated!
hi,
i am working on a website that will be storing millions of images. i have read various advantages/disadvantages of saving the images on sql vs. file system.
i would like to keep all the data in one location (sql server in this case), so what i had in mind is following:i am going to save the original image data on a sql server. now, the website user can view a (multiple) thumbnail version(s) of the original image and the orig. image itself, so instead of getting the original image from sql and resizing it everytime, i was going to create a file(s) on a sep. server with the resized image(s) that would be called instead (think of it as file-cache). this would reduce the load on the sql server drastically since all the thumbnails (and orig. image) would have the file version of themselfes and would be loaded from the separate server. this way i could have all my data on a sql server, have thumbnail images on an "image server" and everything should be fine with the exception of the increased disk space. Also, i would not have to worry about having 2 backups since i have all the data on sql and each image/thumbnail would be file-cached on it's first call. if the file-cache of the image is not available for whatever reason i would just load straight from the db.
i would appreciate any suggestions on this.
thanks :)
