Managing Ntext, Text With A Long Text Data
Aug 25, 2005
Hi,
I have a problem to insert(update) a long text (more than 64K) into
SQL 2000 (datatype - 'text'). It cuts the data and insert only 64K.
MSDN says: "When the ntext, text, and image data values get larger,
however, they must be handled on a block-by-block basis. Both
Transact-
SQL and the database APIs contain functions that allow applications to
work with ntext, text, and image data block by block." Could somebody
give me an example how to do this, please.
Thank you

Hi,
Im a programmer for an university webportal which uses php and msssql.
When an user creates a new entry and his text is too long the entry is cut short and weird characters appear at the end of the entry.
For example:
http://www.ttz.uni-magdeburg.de/scripts/test-messedb/php/index.php?option=show_presse&funktion=presse_show_mitteilung&id=333
How can I set the text limit to unlimited?
Could it be something else?
Is there a way of splitting an entry to several text fields automatically?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me,
Chris

Hi all,
My organization have a web-based application and needs it to support multilingual so we will be adapting our app to use unicode. However, one of our problems is to convert existing data from text to ntext. I couldn't find anything that document this. What is the best way to do that? I would like to be able to migrate the data from an existing text column to another ntext column in the table.
If I can't do that, what are the options? If it's possible, I would like to be able to do this in sql script.
Thanks a mil, in advance.

I have to run a dynamic sql that i save in the database as a TEXT data type(due to a large size of the sql.) from a .NET app. Now i have to run this sql from the stored proc that returns the results back to .net app. I am running this dynamic sql with sp_executesql like this..
EXEC sp_executesql @Statement,N'@param1 varchar(3),@param2 varchar(1)',@param1,@param2,GO
As i can't declare text,ntext etc variables in T-Sql(stored proc), so i am using this method in pulling the text type field "Statement".
DECLARE @Statement varbinary(16)SELECT @Statement = TEXTPTR(Statement)FROM table1 READTEXT table1.statement @Statement 0 16566
So far so good, the issue is how to convert @Statment varbinary to nText to get it passed in sp_executesql.
Note:- i can't use Exec to run the dynamic sql becuase i need to pass the params from the .net app and Exec proc doesn't take param from the stored proc from where it is called.
I would appreciate if any body respond to this.

Hi folks,
Table:
a int,
b int,
c int,
d text
I need to change my AFTER - Trigger from this (example!):
select * into #ins from inserted
to something like
select *(without Text / nText / image -columns) into #ins from inserted.
So I tried to build a string like this: (using INFORMATIONSCHEMES)
select @sql = 'select a,b,c into #ins from inserted'
exec(@sql)
a,b,c are not of Text, nText or Image datatype.
After executing the trigger, I get an error, that inserted is unknown.
Does anyone know how to solve this ?
Thx.

Hello,
I would like to know as to what data type is the best if I want to store MP3's and large amount of text in a SQL server.
Please let me know about the data type for both the tasks.
The table for MP3 is different than the table for large text (eg . saving somebody's resume)
Please do let me know.
Thank you,
John

I have an ASP page that will take form info that a user has entered,then save it into SQL server, and retrive and display the info onanother page. My problem is with long text data (10,000 bytes ormore). It appears to save the long text data, as in it gives noerrors... but it does not save it. In the SQL table, the field isdefined as ntext... So why won't it save?Thanks in advance,adam

I was wondering if there is any way to view <Long Text> in the data viewer? I have a text data type, and when using the data viewer it just says "<Long Text>". That contains the data I actually want to watch... is there any way to get this?

I brief you about my system, I used List manager system to store the messages and distribute to all members. Right now,by design the Lyris system keep the message in the text field which mean it 's not support multilanguage directly because of unicode field. We needs to create new Db which has the data structure as same as Lyris but just one difference is keep the message in unicode format (ntext) which we need the sql script to automatically update the new record get from Lyris to new DB.
If I can't do that, what are the options? If it's possible, I would like to be able to do this in sql script.

Hai Every one
i am facing a werid problem it is related to storing a long text data in SQL 2000 the text data is some thing like the following
"dshjfsjlksdjakdjlksadjfeidkadflkdsajfieawirfjalkdfjsakdfjaiekdvnmckaumnmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmoadifdjsakdjfauiereoweiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidalfkjdsa,mlfdsdflvmsaldifsdjfskladfakdfjakladkalfkfadkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkadlkfjaidfajfkamcmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmiadlmfalierfmaerjeaiaelelllllllllllllllllllll..."
in short it is really long so i opted to go with TEXT data type as it states that it can store more than 8 kb but when i try to insert this data it gives me error stating that Text data type cannot be of length more than 128...........?
What am i doing wrong........if Text is not the proper datatype to store such a data then can anyone suggest some thing better...............
Thanks in advance

i want to concatenate 2 columns of type text
what am trying to do is adding an instead of trigger on update which concatenates the old value in the text column with the new value
so the problem is how i can concatenate both values since i cant declare a variable of type text.
A solution may be dividing the text column into many varchar(8000) variables and then add them but i dont know how it can be implemented or if there's an easier solution
the code am trying:
CREATE TRIGGER InsteadTrigger on tbl
INSTEAD OF Update
AS
BEGIN
if exists(select null from deleted)
begin
--am considering updating only 1 row
update tbl set theValue=((select theValue from deleted)+(select theValue from inserted))
end
i tried the writetext and updatetext functions and the problem is always related to both columns concatenation
Any solution?
thx

I've just gotten my data into SQL Server, and changed the connection stringon the program.There was a memo field (Access 2000) and we put that in a text field (with adefault length of 16?).Now, when displaying the data online (through asp pages), there are bigwhite-space gaps in the pages (that display the memo field data), imageshave a "double" url(http://www.mysite.com/thisfolder/ht...thelinksite.com)there are lots of place with " ".The field data has html tags in it, if that has anything to do with it.It seems like I've heard that there are issues with text fields. Is thiswhat they meant? Is there anything I can do?Thanks, JA

Howdy,
Can some one please explain how the storage of a huge text or ntext object ( say a string of characters 100 KB in size ) is carried out please?
With a data page maximum size of 8000 bytes, how does SQL handle the storage of such an string - it would obviously obverlap multiple rows etc.
Does the application writing it to the database have to split the object over multiple rows and manually keep track of which bit is in which row so it can be re-created later in correct sequence by adding the bits back together, or is it done some how differently?
Any help most welcome as this is a bit confusing.
Cheers,
SG.

My Stored Proc runs through a loop and concats the contents of each field into one big nvarchar. Procedure works fine on a smaller scale but now it is being implemented on a very large table and the results of the sequel overflow the nvarchar limits. I looked into using text and ntext but both cannot be declared locally. Does anyone know how I can work aroudn this limitation?
Summary:The problem is that the temporary variable I am using (nvarchar) is too small to contain the robust size that the SQL is concating into it. The final field it winds up in is a text field and will be able to handle the amount of data, its just getting the data there is the issue..... Your thoughts please....

Hi there! I've read through several of these forums and am impressed by the talent out there. I'm hoping someone could share some insight on a little complication I've got.
I have a sproc that essentially is pulling all mail items from a profile, reading them in and storing them in a table. It is all working fine MINUS the fact that I cannot pass the message because it won't allow me to pass text or ntext.
If anyone has any ideas I would truly appreciate it. In the meantime I'll be searching through the forum looking for a way to make it happen.
Thx, Camey

Hi,
I have a table column type as nText, however there are some Chinese character stored in that field and it is a messed up as it is not readable.
In my vb.net code, I did Convert to unicode by getting the byte of each character and encode it with UTF8 e.g:
Public Shared Function ConvertToUnicode(ByVal s As String) As String
' Convert To Unicode
Dim MyBytes As Byte() = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(s)
Dim GBencoding As Encoding = System.Text.UTF8Encoding.UTF8
Return GBencoding.GetString(MyBytes)
End Function
This works well but ,the problem is that it slows down the process quite alot, and I wonder are there any text encoding method I can use in SQL that can run when i do the SELECT Statement?
SELECT
Convert(MyNTEXTColumn)
....
something like that?
Thanks.
Jon

You should use readtext and writetext to access text column. By the way, nchar and nvarchar can hold up to 4000 characteres.
