I am using a DAL and i want to insert a new row where one of the columns is DATE and it can be 'NULL'.
I am assigning SqlTypes.SqlDateTime.Null.
But when the date is saved in the database, i get the minvalue (1/01/1900) . Is there a way to put the NULL value in the database using DAL????
how can i put an empty date in the database?
THANK YOU!!!
Hi,
I have fields in my table which allow nulls. Is it efficient to not insert anything (the field automatically shows up as null in this case) and leave or store some value into it. The field is a smallint field?
Thanks
I'm trying to insert multiple records, each containing a null value for one of the fields, but not having much luck. This is the code I'm using:
Use InternationalTrade
Go
CREATE TABLE dbo.ACCTING_ADJUST
(
stlmnt_instr_id varchar(20) null,
instr_id varchar(20) not null,
[Code] ....
Hi,
I am trying to insert null values into sql server from my access from. I am using sql statement. But it says 'Syntex error in Insert statement'. When i remove null values it works fine? How can I insert null values into a table?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Hi,
We are using an SQL Server database and seem to be having some problems with inserting null values into numeric fields. The field is set to accept nulls, but when we try and write a record into the database and that field is null, the application craps out on us. Are there any issues that we should be aware of when inserting null values into numeric fields? What might the problem be? Thanks.

When the first TrackCodeid is NULL
all remaining NULL TrackCodeid is entered as null in the database table
but if the first/prev trackcodeID is not NULL then following null trackCODEID is populated with the prev trackcodeID and not as null in database

All Null TrackCOdeID is populated as ABCDEFG
if we remove ABCDEFG and then bulkload all null values are populated
if a null trackCODEID is to be inserted the prev trackCODEID must be null and must not contain any value

Hi all
I have a calculated fields in report designer such as a + b + c + d. In sql server if I run this query
select a + b + c + d from table1
and any of a,b,c or d is null, the result is null.
whereas in calculated fields, it does not return null but infact ignores the null value and treats it as zero.
I want my calculated field to be null if any of the values are null.
Is it possible? I cannot use the isNothing function because I have too many fields and it will be quite cumbersome.
Thanks
Hey everyone,
This is probably a very simple question, but I am just stumped. I am storing different name parts in different fields, but I need to create a view that will pull all of those fields together for reports, dropdowns, etc.
Here is my current SELECT statement:
SELECT m.FName + SPACE(1) + m.MName + SPACE(1) + m.LName + ', ' + m.Credentials AS Name,
m.JobTitle,
m.Company,
m.Department,
m.Address,
m.City + ', ' + m.State + ' ' + m.Zipcode AS CSZ,
m.WorkPhone,
m.FAX,
m.Email,
c.Chapter,
m.Active,
s.Sector,
i.Industry
FROM tblMembers m
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblChapters c
ON m.ChapterID = c.ChapterID
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblSectors s
ON m.SectorID = s.SectorID
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblIndustries i
ON m.IndustryID = i.IndustryID
WHERE m.DRGInclude = 1
My problem is that I don't know how to test for NULL values in a field. When you concatenate fields that contain NULL values, the entire contactenated field returns NULL. I am not aware of an IF statement that is available within the SELECT statement.
The first thing I would like to accomplish is to test to see if MName contains NULL. If it does I do not want to include + SPACE(1) + m.MName in the clause. Then, if Credentials contains NULL I do not want to include + ', ' + m.Credentials in the clause.
Can someone tell me what I am missing? Is there a function that I can use for this?
Thanks,
We are writing a C application that is using ODBC to insert recordsinto a database. We have a NOT NULL column that can legitimately havean empty value, i.e. we know the value and it is empty (i.e. a zerolength string).We are using SQLBindParameter() to bind a variable to theparameterized insert statement <<in the form: INSERT INTO table VALUES(?, ?, ?)>>. We are using SQLExecDirect() to process the SQL.We are running into the problem where ODBC is converts the empty (zerolength) string into a NULL value and this errors due to the fact thatthe column is defined as NOT NULL.We do not want to redefine the column as NULL, becasue myunderstanding of the correct usage of a NULL column is to indicatethat a value is unknown or meaningless... in our case we know thevalue (it is empty) and an empty value has meaning within ourapplication.I'm sure that this issue has been seen and address thousands(millions?) of times... any guidance would be appreciated.

When I try to insert a new record into a table that has a datetime field that allows nulls, a default 01/01/1900 date is inserted instead of null. I recreated the table and set the datatype to smalldatetime and I still get the error. What have I missed?
Hi all,
I have a projects table with 2 foreign key fields that both link to the same employees table because a project has a Package Engineer (PkgEngineerID) and a Contract Administrator (PkgContrAdmin). When I try to insert a record with null values for either or both of these foreign keys I get an error:
The data in row xxx was not commited. The record can't be added or changed. Referential integrity rules require a related record in table 'tblEmployees'. The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.
An insert statement for the above would look something like the following:
INSERT INTO tblPackages (PkgNo, PkgName, PkgEngineerID, PkgContrAdmin, PkgRemark)VALUES (1234, 'My Package', NULL, NULL, 'My Package remark')
And the create table statements are:

I have a (1) date field and (2) an auto-incrementing ID field that always throw me errors when I'm doing a programmatic insert.
(1) After doing many searches on the subject, I don't think I'm using the correct syntax for the date and can't find any suggestion that works. Would appreciate your knowledge on correct SQL syntax for inserting a "today's date" field.
(2) I'm using the following code to create a new auto-incrementing ID for each record but it seems that there should be a smoother method to force the field's value to auto-increment. Any ideas?
Private objCmd As SqlCommand Private strConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("conn"))...objCmd = New SqlCommand("select max(ClientID) from tblClients", strConn)Dim intClientID As Int16 = objCmd.ExecuteNonQuery + 1
I'm using SQL Server Express and am trying to import a CVS file. The CVS file contains a string field (named DAS) that represents a Date. This field can be null.
I've tried using the DTS Wizard to import this CVS file and convert the DAS field to a Date, which works great until it hits a record with a NULL DAS field. It then throws a convertion error.
Still using the DTS Wizard, I've changed the DataType of the DAS field in the Source file to [DT_DATE], it works fine but all the null dates are converted to 12/30/1899.
Is there a way (DTS Wizard or something else) that will allow me to import these CVS files with null Date fields and keep them as null in SQL Server table.
Thanks for any help,
Jon
Hi, i'm new to SSIS and trying to import some csv files (comma delimited) into SQL Server. A NULL value for a CHAR column is correctly regonized as NULl in SQL Server, but a NULL value for of a mapping to a VARCHAR column in SQL Server is not recognized correctly and i get the value "'NULL'" in SQL Server (including the single comma.
Sample:
CSV file contains columns A and B. A and B contains the Text NULL.
Column A is mapped to a CHAR field, and column B is mapped to a VARCHAR field in SQL Server.
After the import, SQL has the following value: A = NULL as NULL, B 'NULL' as text.
did anyone else had this problem?
thanks so much for any help.
I know I am missing something basic, here.
I have a date field in a table. The field is 'allowed Nulls'. When a certain thing happens in the program, the date is filled in.
At various times, I need to do a query to find all the rows that have no dates entered.
What do I use in my where clause? SQL server does not like 'where date = null.'
Thanks,
Judith
Hi:
I used this statement, select * from table1 where date1 = null, in SQL Query window and got a few records back. Now, I used the same statement in my VB 5 code and no record is found. How do I select all the records in table1 which do not have values in field date1? Thanks for the help.

Hi, how do I convert dates with SSIS, when I receive dates I have no problem, with empty fields I have to go through a transformation as:
trim(field_name) == "" ? "999999" : substring....... (derive transform)
after this I have to update each field holding '999999' to NULL. (using sql task)
Is there an easier way to doing this?

I am attempting to create search parameters for a gridview control and I am experiencing a small issue. When I get to a date parameter I am unable to display null values.
I setup a sqldatasource and created the parameters below to handle the selections for minimum date required and the maximum date required for the date columns in the database. The problem is I do not know how to display null dates.
Is there a way to incorporate something into the search page to show null dataes?

I have a pivot transform that pivots a batch type. After the pivot, each batch type has its own row with null values for the other batch types that were pivoted. I want to group two fields and max() the remaining batch types so that the multiple rows are displayed on one row. I tried using the aggregate transform, but since the batch type field is a string, the max() function fails in the package. Is there another transform or can I use the aggragate transform another way so that the max() will work on a string?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a DTSX package which reads values from a fixed-length text file using a data reader and writes some of the column values from the file to an Oracle table. We have used this DTSX several times without incident but recently the process started inserting NULL values for some of the columns when there was a valid value in the source file. If we extract some of the rows from the source file into a smaller file (i.e 10 rows which incorrectly returned NULLs) and run them through the same package they write the correct values to the table, but running the complete file again results in the NULL values error. As well, if we rerun the same file multiple times the incidence of NULL values varies slightly and does not always seem to impact the same rows. I tried outputting data to a log file to see if I can determine what happens and no error messages are returned but it seems to be the case that the NULL values occur after pulling in the data via a Data Reader. Has anyone seen anything like this before or does anyone have a suggestion on how to try and get some additional debugging information around this error?
