Maximum Length Of System_user Function
Jan 25, 2008I know that system_user can return different types of usernames based on the authentication method used to connect to the database. I am trying to nail down a standard field width for audit columns that store the return value from system_user but I can't find definitive information about the return type of the function. Does anyone know the maximum length of the return value from the system_user function and if its an nvarchar, varchar, nchar, etc.?
Thanks.

Error: Invalid Length Parameter Passed To The SUBSTRING Function.
Sep 28, 2007Hi,
I am using a simple procedure to pivot results (found in another forum and adapted it). It is done on SQL Server 2005 server with all service packs. Procedure:
**************
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[EthnicityPivot] @StDate as Datetime, @EndDate as Datetime
as
begin
DECLARE @Teams varchar(2000)
truncate table ForEthnicPivot
INSERT INTO ForEthnicPivot
SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(ID), Team, Ethnicity
FROM dbo._EthnicityByTeamEpisode
where Startdate between @StDate and @EndDate
GROUP BY Ethnicity, Team
SET @Teams = ''
--// Get a list of the pivot columns that are important to you.
SELECT @Teams = @Teams + '[' + Team + '],'
FROM (SELECT Distinct Team FROM ForEthnicPivot) Team
--// Remove the trailing comma
SET @Teams = LEFT(@Teams, LEN(@Teams)-1)
--// Now execute the Select with the PIVOT and dynamically add the list
--// of dates for the columns
EXEC( 'SELECT * FROM ForEthnicPivot PIVOT (SUM(countID) FOR Team IN (' + @Teams + ')) AS X' )
end
************
I can call the function:
exec EthnicityPivot '01/01/2007','09/09/2007'
and it works fine in SQL analyzer, but when I want to use it in Visual Studio in a new report I am getting this error
message:
There is an error in the query. Invalid length parameter passed to the SUBSTRING function. Incorrect syntax near ')'.
Anyone had similar error and sorted it?

Odd Error Upon SqlDataReader.Read() Invalid Length Parameter Passed To The Substring Function.
Nov 12, 2003An application I developed normally works great, but it seems that when processing a certian record (and none of the others so far), SQL Server throws this error:
"Invalid length parameter passed to the substring function."

orderReader = orderCommand.ExecuteReader()

The SqlDataReader (orderReader) doesn't blow up or anything until I call .Read() (and, as mentioned, this problem only occurs for one order). What could be happening here?

SUM A Count Function
Oct 26, 2007I need to perform a summation on the results of a COUNT but I'm not sure what's the best way to do it.
Example:
TableA
---------------
CaseID (int)
FollowupCorrespondence (int) (not guaranteed to be sequential)
CustomerName (varchar)
/**Get the total number of followups for each customer case, and display the customer's name.*/
select T.caseid, sum(T.cnt), T.CustomerName,
T.FollowupCorrespondence
from (select CaseID, count(FollowupCorrespondence)
as cnt, CustomerName,
FollowupCorrespondence
from tableA
group by caseID, CustomerName,
FollowupCorrespondence;
) as T
group by caseid, customername, followupcorrespondence
I get the following output, but what I need is to get '4' in each row of the SumCases column.
CASEID SUMCases CUSTOMERNAME FOLLOWUPCORRESPONDENCE

COunt Function In Report
Jan 31, 2007I am creating a report that will print the customer's Invoices grouped by SalesPerson. I created a variable in the dataset so that it sets to the status of the invoce to Paid, Not Paid and Partial. All is working fine so far.
I have a groupfooter for each salesperson where I want to print the total no. of invoices for that SalesPerson that are PAID, NONPAID and Partaial.
So on the expressions of that fields, I have the following code. It allows me to print the report, but it prints #Error for the value of thoses field
I also want to print the the same fields in the report total area.
Any ideas ??
=Count(Fields!Document_No_.Value)having (Fields!InvStatus.Value = "PAID")
=Count(Fields!Document_No_.Value)having (Fields!InvStatus.Value = "UNPAID")
=Count(Fields!Document_No_.Value)having (Fields!InvStatus.Value = "PARTIAL")
