Sep 26, 2007
Hi,

Basically i am adding options using a multiline text box, is there any thing wrong with that. options are saved in the database as junk character followed by option1...... etc. Kindly suggest me on this.

Hi
We are generating the log file using SSIS built in logging feature. It is generating a text file as "log.txt".
Again we need to add few string values like "Files Loaded Successfully". So i tried adding this string using the following 2 ways.
1. Using Script Task in SSIS
2. Using SQL Stored procedure.
The following are the code:
Through SSIS Script:
Contents = "File Loaded Successfully"
'Get a StreamReader class that can be used to read the file
Dim objStreamWriter As IO.StreamWriter
objStreamWriter =
IO.File.AppendText("\Chnbslsql2k3shareLoglog.txt")
objStreamWriter.Write(Contents)
'Close the stream
objStreamWriter.Close()
Through Stored Proc:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[LG_Create_LogFile]
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE
@cmdstr as nvarchar(1000),
@Msg AS varchar(1000)
BEGIN TRY
BEGIN
-- Create move command
set @Msg = 'File Loaded by Kumaran '
set @cmdstr = 'echo ' + @Msg + ' >>
\Chnbslsql2k3shareLoglog.txt'
END
-- Execute command
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @cmdstr
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
RAISERROR('FILE NOT MOVED SUCCESSFULL', 16, -1)
RETURN -1
END CATCH
END
In the both ways, it is giving me junk characters as like in the below output log.txt file...
PackageStart,CHNBSLSQL2K3,NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM,pkgExtract,{93BE582E-EDDD-4EBD-97A4-8A2E39E839A9},{605B2ED1-D794-4455-BD9E-F32D4CFF1196},9/18/2006 8:43:40 PM,9/18/2006 8:43:40 PM,0,0x,Beginning of package execution.

Hai all,
We have quite a strange problem, we have some SP's in our project which is functioning quite well all these days. Suddenly one day we got an error in the SP stating "Invalid Table Name", when we opened the SP and saw in some places the Tablename was replaced with Junk Characters inside the SP !!!!!!!
For Ex: Inside the SP we have the following SELECT query
"SELECT F1 FROM SampleTable"
the above query is getting replaced with
"SELECT F1 FROM SampleTa?le"
The junk character actually appears like a box!!!.. we were absolutely clueless why this was happening. Then if we change the SP once agin and run it starts to execute but only for a short time and the problem comes back once again. When we went through the SQL logs we got this error repeatedly:
"Error: 17805, Severity: 20, State: 3
Invalid buffer received from clients"
We came to know a little about this problem from kb articles in MS that when you are calling an SP from .Net u should specify the parameter data types explicitly and u should not use SQL Client in Finalise method all which we have not done in the application.
Tha SP was using #Table which we replaced to @Tablevariables but still we got the problem once, we are monitoring with the same Table Variables.
We are using SQL Server 2000 SP4. We have got stuck with this problem for days now . Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Back Story...
i am building a new deployment routine for one of our products using NANT (.net version of ANT). I takes all of .sql files out of vault for all non table objects and concatenates them into larger .sql files with IF EXISTS .... DROP ... GO CREATE statements which will then be fired off by osql batch files that will log the errors.
Problem...
When I open the resulting files in notepad I have junk characters (microsoft OEM stuff) in some of my object definitions which you do not see in the QA or if you opnen the file in Vault. I need to get this stuff out of there and I do not want to write a bunch of filesystem code to do it because I need this tested and ready by Friday COB. I know I can solve this by opening the problematic files in ultraedit and saving them one by one but I do have that kind of time.
Any ideas?
It's going to be a long couple of days.

I have a strange situation in an Message queue task in SSIS.
I serialize an object in a C# application and add that to an MSMQ as a string. I also ensure that I set the label to "String Message" so that my Message Queue Task can actually receive the message as a String message to variable.
I created an SSIS package that has an Message Queue listener that feeds into a Script task inside a for-each loop.
For each message that I obtain, I invoke a script task that retrieves the value of the variable and then processes this information.
When I enter the entry into the MSMQ, it goes in perfectly fine (since I also tested retrieving this entry from a C# app). However when I use the same logic on the SSIS package using the Script task, I get junk chinese characters.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Any feedback would be great!
Anup
Here is the code for the script task:
mports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Public Class ScriptMain
Public Sub Main()
Dim statusMessage As String
statusMessage = CType(ReadVariable("ReviewerHealthXmlMessage"), String)
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(statusMessage)
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
Private Function ReadVariable(ByVal varName As String) As Object
Dim result As Object
Try
Dim vars As Variables
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead(varName)
Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars)
Try
result = vars(varName).Value
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
Finally
vars.Unlock()
End Try
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
End Try
Return result
End Function
Private Sub WriteVariable(ByVal varName As String, ByVal varValue As Object)
Try
Dim vars As Variables
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForWrite(varName)
Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars)
Try
vars(varName).Value = varValue
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
Finally
vars.Unlock()
End Try
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
End Try
End Sub
End Class

Is there a way to tell SQL Server 2005 Management Studio that I don't want it to include "USE [dbname]" and "/****** Object: Table [dbo].[TBL_NAME] Script Date: [date] ******/" when it creates scripts? I searched the forums and couldn't find an answer, and I don't see it in Tools->Options.

Hi everybody,
I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?

We are trying to build a FAQ in a SQL database that will be updateble trough the web.
Now to the questione:
We can't use more than 255 characters, in Books Online it says that char and varchar supports 1 to 8000 characters but it doesn't work for us.
Anyone knows why?

I have a field oh phone numbers that had no specific format. I have removed all of the previous formatting so know there are just a string of 10 numbers and I want them all to change to "(###) ###-####". Is there an SQL statement that I can use to update the field in a batch process. Any help would be great. I also have linked the tables to an access db, if that makes it easier. Any help is much appreciated.

I use Webmatrix together with Frontpage 2002.
In one of my Webmatrix pages I refer to a field "Prénom" when doing queries.
Sometimes after publishing these pages from my local to my hosted server the é disappears in the source code and SQL server does not find the column.
I have the feeling it has to do with codepage and/or Content.
Has anyone a precise idea.

Ok.. I inhertited a program that has columns called cpt_codes, cpt_to, and cpt_from all of them are varchar fields. The user can input a cpt code and the program checks to see if it fall between cpt_to and cpt_from so00101 would fall betwen 00100 and 00110. The problem these are varchars so the user has a code 0024t and is pulling up between 00100 and 01999 which is techinically correct. However thats not where it's supposed to be. Is there a way to get around this? the sql statement currently in place is:SELECT * fROM CPT_TOS WHERE CPT_FROM <= '0024T' AND CPT_TO >= '0024T'*Not my sql statement or design!!" ThanksRobert.

I must be doing something wrong, but I cannot imagine what it could be. I made a brand new table and started to enter some data. I am putting the initail data in using Enterprise Manager. This is essentially test data for development. I have several varchar columns set to 8000 for their size. When I try to enter text into them it is getting truncated at 999 characters. I thought that maybe I misunderstood the varchar type and that 1000 characters is 8000 bits and that is what the 8000 means. So, I redid the table with the datatype "text" for my long columns. Same thing. It is being truncated at 999. Is there something I am missing here? I am not trying to do anything tricky or confusing, I am simply trying to put more than 1000 characters into a table column.I should mention that I have been pasting the text that is copied from Notepad (to remove any extranous formatting). The text cuts cut off and I cannot even type in the column after that.Any clues would really be appreciated.

problem:
Previously I had a problem inserting symbols like an umlaut into a SQL7 DB. The umlaut symbol like in the name [Björk] was translated into [Bj÷rk] when the data was bcp'd in. I was able to solve this problem by changing the registry codepage setting for the "OEMCP" from '437' to '1252'.
Fine...but now i have problems with symbols like [é] in the name [Mel Tormé]. The [é] on [Tormé] is changing to [T].....[Mel TormT].
Is there any way of accomidating SQL7 to allow both types of symbols?
thanks for the help...

We just upgraded to SQL 7.0 SP2. We enlarged one of our fields from varchar(255) to varchar(500), but when I do a SELECT on the field it only brings back 255. I know this was a limitation in ISQL in 6.5. I tried it in query analyzer and also via a command line. Any ideas how to see all the data?

I've created a procedure that converts chracters that I don't want in a certain field in my db.
The problems is: it also converts characters that I haven't specified
For example: the letter y is converted to u (probably because the letter ü (german y) is to be converted to u (ü is pronounced as y)).
Does anyone have a solution for this ? Has soundex something to do with this ?
Regards
Carl Nilsson
Here's a sample of the script:
--script begin
CREATE proc bds_convert_names @pass_name varchar(100), @NameStr varchar(100) OUTPUT
as
DECLARE @NotAllowed varchar(100)
DECLARE @IsAllowed varchar(100)
DECLARE @OldChar char(1)
DECLARE @NewChar char(1)
DECLARE @Loop int
-- NAMESTR = Contains the string that should be translated.
SELECT @NameStr = @pass_name
-- Set the name to Lower Cases
SELECT @NameStr = LOWER(@NameStr)
-- Set the characters not allowed
SELECT @NotAllowed = '/:*?"<>|,åäöéèáàûüôî'
-- Set which characters that should replace them
SELECT @IsAllowed = '**********aaoeeaauuoi'
-- Set Loop start to zero
SELECT @Loop = 0
-- Start looping, char by char, replacing direct into NAMESTR
WHILE @Loop < LEN(@NotAllowed)
BEGIN
SELECT @Loop = @Loop + 1
SELECT @OldChar = SUBSTRING(@NotAllowed, @Loop, 1)
SELECT @NewChar = SUBSTRING(@IsAllowed, @Loop, 1)
SELECT @NameStr = REPLACE(@NameStr, @OldChar, @NewChar)
END
-- Remove all stars
SELECT @NameStr = REPLACE(@NameStr, '*', '')
GO

Hi all,
this might be a very simple query for most of you guys.
What I need help in is that I need to find out records that have a specific number of character within it. For example if a field is 8 char long but there are records that are 3 char long or 4 char long, I need to find those records.
Any help is appreciated

Hello all,
I have a table named users. It consists of user names, user ids, etc... The problem is that whoever designed the ASP code before me allowed people to enter info in any format they want. This poses a problem because now the name can have 1, 2, or sometimes 3 spaces in between the last and first names. And sometimes the middle initial is used with a period following it. This creates problems when I am trying to execute a Select statement since it won't match if there are an unknown number of spaces in the string and throws an error when a period is used.
Is there a SQL query I can execute to change all the user_names into a format such as the following:
LastName, FirstName MiddleInitial
Like I said, it is already almost the same, just has too many spaces and some have periods after the middle initial

Hello everyone. I have a query where I pull all item_codes that start with a 7. I need all the item_codes that start with 7, but I need to subtract the last 3 characters from only the item_codes that are not 71860kit or 71851nggun. How would I be able to accomplish this. What I have below subtracts the last 3 characters from all item_codes including 71860kit and 71851nggun. I want these two to stay in tact when I select them in the query.
This is the Query that I have now!
select datepart(year, date_cust_invoice)as INV_YEAR,
datepart(month, date_cust_invoice)as INV_MONTH,
item_code=left(item_code, len(item_code)-3)
, sum(QTY_SALES)as QTY_SALES_TOTALS, sum(SALES_VAL)as SALES_VAL_TOTALS
from opcsahf
where datepart(year, date_cust_invoice) >= '2003'
and substring(item_code, 1, 1) = '7'
group by datepart(year, date_cust_invoice), datepart(month, date_cust_invoice),
item_code
order by inv_year, inv_month, item_code
All help is appreciated!

Can anyone tell me how I can strip certain chahrcters from a string
I know I can use replace, but i don't think this is appropriate for what I want to do
For example I have the string
declare @text varchar (100)
select @text = 'word1, word2 & word3'
if i do a replace on the string like this
select @text = 'replace(@text, ',', '')
select @text = 'replace(@text, '&', '')
I end up with the string
select @text = 'word1 word2 word3'
i.e. 2 spaces between word2 and word3
What i want the string to look like is :
select @text = 'word1 word2 word3'
Is there a way i can check for more than one space + characters ( / , &) in one go
many thanks
