Parameters Input Field Size
Jul 2, 2007
Hi,
is it possible to change the appearence of input fields for parameters on the report server? My parameter is Multi-value with quite large amount of available values. On report server, user can (without scrolling) see only the first value. Parameter values are quite long, so user has to move alternally with both vertical and horizontal scrollbars to find the right value.
Thanks

I'm very new to SQL Server so please forgive me if this question is ridiculously simple. I have to upgrade the report engine from one that was used in a legacy VB6 app to a C#.net app. In doing so, I'm looking at assorted reports that came out of the old app. Here is the SQL code for one of them:
SELECT (LTRIM(STR(From_To,10,0)) + '-' + LTRIM(STR(From_To + 49,10,0))) AS Bonus_Earned, COUNT (Empl_ID) AS Men, round(SUM (SumDollars),2) AS Group_Earn, round((SUM (SumDollars) / COUNT (Empl_ID)),2) AS Calc0 FROM (SELECT CONVERT (int, round (SumDollars / 50, 2)) * 50 AS From_To, SumDollars, Empl_ID FROM (SELECT round(SUM (Actual_Hours_Dollars.Incentivedollars * Contract_History.Bonus_Pct / 100), 2) AS SumDollars, employees.Empl_ID FROM ((Employees INNER JOIN Actual_hours_dollars ON Employees.Empl_ID = Actual_Hours_Dollars.Empl_ID_R) INNER JOIN Contracts ON Actual_Hours_Dollars.Contract_ID = Contracts.Contract_No) INNER JOIN Contract_History ON Contracts.Contract_Idx = Contract_History.Contract_Idx_R where employees.empl_idx = (SELECT max(empl_idx) FROM Employees AS OuterEmployees WHERE OuterEmployees.empl_id = employees.empl_id AND outeremployees.Datex = (SELECT max(datex) FROM Employees AS InnerEmployees WHERE InnerEmployees.empl_id = employees.empl_id AND Inneremployees.disabled = 0 AND Inneremployees.Datex < '~EndDate~')) AND Contracts.Datex = (SELECT max(datex) FROM Contracts AS InnerContracts WHERE InnerContracts.contract_no = Contracts.contract_no AND InnerContracts.disabled = 0 and InnerContracts.deleted = 0 AND InnerContracts.Datex < '~EndDate~') AND Actual_hours_dollars.Datex >= '~StartDate~' AND Actual_Hours_Dollars.Datex < '~EndDate~' AND dateadd(month, Contract_History.Monthx - 1, dateadd(year, Contract_History.Yearx - 1900, '01 Jan 1900')) >= '~StartDate~' AND dateadd(month, Contract_History.Monthx - 1, dateadd(year, Contract_History.Yearx - 1900, '01 Jan 1900')) < '~EndDate~' and Actual_Hours_Dollars.IncentiveHours <> 0 GROUP BY employees.empl_ID) AS InnerRS1 GROUP BY ROUND (SumDollars * 2, -2) /2, SumDollars, Empl_ID) AS InnerRS2 GROUP BY From_To
I'm only including it for completeness. The key thing I'd like to draw your attention to are two variables that are clearly input parameters: ~StartDate~ and ~EndDate~.
My question is this: If I want to copy this code into SQL Query Analyzer and run it to see what kind of results I get back, what's the simplest way to define these two input parameters? I'm hoping you could just show me the syntax to define them above the SELECT statement.

I'm trying something like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE Add_Junk @Dist char, @CheckNo int =null OUTPUT AS
Set NoCount On
BEGIN TRANSACTION
INSERT INTO Junk (Dist)
VALUES (@Dist)
COMMIT TRANSACTION
select @CheckNo=@@IDENTITY
If what I pass is "416" I only get the "4" in my database and nothing else.
I don't get an error message.
What is wrong with my syntax?
PS I'm using Microsoft SQL 7.0

I have to create a report and I want all activity for the previous month.
I need to calculate the First and Last Day Prior Month to be used as Input Parameters.
Would something like this be the case or is there a better solution?
[code="sql"]
SELECT DATEADD(month, DATEDIFF(month, -1, getdate()) - 2, 0) as FirstDayPreviousMonthWithTimeStamp,
DATEADD(ss, -1, DATEADD(month, DATEDIFF(month, 0, getdate()), 0)) as LastDayPreviousMonthWithTimeStamp
[/code]
I was thinking get the first day of the previous and current month to exclude the Timestamp and use a less then first day of current month?

Hello, a question please. Could anyone say me if I can create a store procedure with 2 'select's statements into. Besides, I'd want to know if I can execute a "select" depending on input parameters.
Something like this:
create storeproc
Param1, param2
if param1 <> null
Select *
from table
where id = param1
else
Select *
from table
where id = param2
end if
Thanks in advance....

There is not a way to pass parameters to input of Web Service tasks. I heard this problem is fixed with SQL2K5 SP1 and even the online doc says that one can choose either "value" or "variable" when specifying input for web service tasks, but after I installed what-I-think-is SP1, there is still no way to do this.
If one can only specify values (hard-coded) as input to web service tasks, then this would be a very severe limitation. I hope I'm wrong, so could someone please give a pointer. Thanks

I've been tasked with creating a stored procedure which will be executed after a user has input one or more parameters into some search fields. So they could enter their 'order_reference' on its own or combine it with 'addressline1' and so on.
What would be the most proficient way of achieving this?
I had initially looked at using IF, TRY ie:
IF @SearchField= 'order_reference'
BEGIN TRY
select data
from mytables
END TRY
However I'm not sure this is the most efficient way to handle this.

Hi everyone
I have just starting creating some stored procedures for our system and have a question related to management of these.
When using input parameters using the following syntax:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_someInputProcedure
@Username as varchar(16)
@Password as varchar(12)
@Name as varchar(50)
@Address as varchar(60)
@Zip as int
@City as varchar(30)
...
etc.
This is all well and good, but what if I make a change in the datamodel - for instance changing a datatype or the length of a varchar - do I need to remember to manually update all stored procedures that uses these columns/variables?
Seems like a bit of a hazzle. Is there an easier way to do this?
Many thanks,

How can I run a single SP by asking multiple sales question eitherby using the logical operator AND for all the questions; or usingthe logical operator OR for all the questions. So it's alwayseither AND or OR but never mixed together.We can use Northwind database for my question, it is very similarto the structure of the problem on the database I am working on.IF(SELECT OBJECT_ID('REPORT')) IS NOT NULLDROP TABLE REPORT_SELECTIONGOCREATE TABLE REPORT_SELECTION(AUTOID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,REPSELNO INT NOT NULL, -- Idenitifies which report query this-- "sales question" is part ofSupplierID INT NOT NULL, -- from the Suppliers tableProductID INT NOT NULL, -- from the Products table, if you choose--a ProductID, SupplierID is selected also by inheritenceCategoryID INT NOT NULL, -- from the Categories tableSOLDDFROM DATETIME NULL, -- Sold from which dateSOLDTO DATETIME NULL, -- Sold to which dateMINSALES INT NOT NULL, -- The minimum amount of salesMAXSALES INT NOT NULL, -- The maximum amount of salesOPERATOR TINYINT NOT NULL -- 1 is logical operator AND, 2 is OR)GOINSERT INTO REPORT_SELECTIONSELECT 1, 1, 2, 1, '1/1/1996', '1/1/2000', 10, 10000, 1 UNION ALLSELECT 1, -1, -1, 1, '1/1/1996', '1/1/2000', 10, 1000, 1You can ask all kinds of sales questions like:1-I want all employees that sold products from supplierID 1(Exotic Liquids), specifically the ProductID 2 (Chang) from theCategoryID 1 (Beverages) between Jan 1 1996 to Jan 1 2000 and soldbetween $10 and $10000 - AND for my 2nd sales question2-I want all employees that sold CategoryID 1 (beverages) betweenJan 1 1996 to Jan 1 2000 and sold between $10 and $1000I want to get the common result of both questions and find outwhich employee(s) are in this list.Here are some of the points:1-I want my query to return the list of employees fitting theresult of my sales question(s).2-If I ask three questions with the logical operator AND, I wantthe list of employees that are common to all three questions.3-If I ask 2-3-4. questions with the logical operator OR, I wantthe list of employees that are in the list of the 1st "successful"sales question (the first question that returns any employee isgood enough)4-You can ask all kind of sales question you want even if theycontradict each other. The SP should still run and returnnothing if that is the case.5-Let's assume you can have the same product name from the samesupplier but under different categories. So entering a ProductIDshould not automatically enter the CategoryID also; whereasentering the ProductID should automatically enter its SupplierID.6-SOLDFROM, SOLDTO, MINSALES, MAXSALES, OPERATOR are mandatoryfields, you can't leave them NULL7-SupplierID, ProductID and CategoryID are the dynamic inputparameters, there can be 5 different combinations to choose from:a-SupplierID onlyb-SupplierID and a ProductID,c-SupplierID and a CategoryIDd-SupplierID, ProductID and a CategoryIDe-CategoryID onlyf-Any time you choose a ProductID, the SupplierID valuewill be filled automatically based on the ProductID'srelationshipg-Any of the three values here that is not chosen by theuser will take a default value of -1 (meaning return ALLfor this Column, in other words don't filter by this column)The major problem I have is I can't use dynamic SQL for choosingthe three dynamic columns as the 2nd row of records would have adifferent selection of dynamic columns (at least I don't know howif the solution is dynamic SQL). The only solution I can think oflooks pretty bad to me. I would use a cursor, run each row at atime, store a TRUE, FALSE value to stop processing or not andstore the result in another detail table. Then if all ANDquestions have ended with TRUE do a union of all the result andreturn the common list of employees. It sounds pretty awful as anapproach. I am hoping there's a simpler method for achieving this.Does anyone know if any SQL book has a topic on this type ofquery? If so I'll definitely buy the book.I appreciate any help you can provide.Thank you

Hi,
I have 2 source tables emp_ass,aprvl_status these tables are not having common column to join. and 1 target table Time_Card, i have a stored procedure with 4 input parameters, emp_ass_id,status_id,start date,end date,i am inserting data into timecard based on emp_ass_id, my week start date is sunday and end date is saterday if emp start date is sunday i am just incremnting the start date by 7 days as end date is saterday and inserting that row, if employe statrt date is other than Sunday. i am just insering start date with to reach end date saterday, this work fine when i give the input parameters, now my reqirement is i need to automate this process as i need to get new emp_ass_id which is not in target table and insert his records based on his start date and end date,
ex:
if emp_ass_id is 1001, start date 1/1/2008 and end date is 2/1/2008 then i need to insert

the stored procedure will insert these records if i give the input parameters, now i need to automate this process by using SSIS. please help me,i need to get emp_ass_id,start_date,end_date dynamically from source table if emp_ass_id is not in target table.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
id beg for a hint if our idea of a general dynamic CATCH handler for SPs is possible somehow. We search for a way to dynamically figure out which input parameters where set to which value to be used in a catch block within a SP, so that in an error case we could buld a logging statement that nicely creates a sql statement that executes the SP in the same way it was called in the error case. Problem is that we currently cant do that dynamically.
What we currently do is that after a SP is finished, a piece of C# code scans the SP and adds a general TRY/CATCH bloack around it. This script scans the currently defined input parameters of the SP and generates the logging statement accordingly. This works fine, but the problem is that if the SP is altered the general TRY/CATCH block has to be rebuildt as well, which could lead to inconstencies if not done carefully all the time. As well, if anyone modifies an input param somewhere in the SP we wouldnt get the original value, so to get it right we would have to scan the code and if a input param gets altered within the SP we would have to save it at the very beginning.
So the nicer solution would be if we could sniff the input param values dynamically on run time somehow, but i havent found a hint to do the trick.....
Any tipps would be appreciated...
cheers,
Stefan

Hi Everyone,
I haven't been able to successfully use the ADO.NET connection type to use both input and output parameters in an execute sql task containing just tsql statements (no stored procedure calls). I have successfully used input parameters on their own but when i combine it with output parameters it fails on the simplest of tasks.
I would really find it beneficial if you could use the flexibility of an ADO.NET connection type as the parameter marker and parameter name can be referenced anywhere throughout the sql statement in no particular order. The addition of an output parameter would really make it great!!
Thanks

I am having an interesting error. I have a bunch of data that I am updating to a field in my sql server 7.0 database. It updates the data, however only puts the first 64,999 characters into the field. The datatype is ntext. From what I understand, ntext datatype can hold much more than 65,000 characters. Am I right in this? The data I'm putting into the field is html tags/text. I've tried several different data sets. I'm updating the data using Coldfusion/SQL commands.
Here is my SQL syntax:
UPDATE htmltest
SET html_offline = '#form.html#'
WHERE htmlid = #form.htmlid#

Hi all,
In a Database "AP" of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE), I have a stored procedure "spInvTotal3":
CREATE PROC [dbo].[spInvTotal3]
@InvTotal money OUTPUT,
@DateVar smalldatetime = NULL,
@VendorVar varchar(40) = '%'
This stored procedure "spInvTotal3" worked nicely and I got the Results: My Invoice Total = $2,211.01 in
my SSMSE by using either of 2 sets of the following EXEC code:
(1)
USE AP
GO
--Code that passes the parameters by position
DECLARE @MyInvTotal money
EXEC spInvTotal3 @MyInvTotal OUTPUT, '2006-06-01', 'P%'
PRINT 'My Invoice Total = $' + CONVERT(varchar,@MyInvTotal,1)
GO
(2)
USE AP
GO
DECLARE @InvTotal as money
EXEC spInvTotal3
@InvTotal = @InvTotal OUTPUT,
@DateVar = '2006-06-01',
@VendorVar = '%'
SELECT @InvTotal
GO
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Now, I want to print out the result of @InvTotal OUTPUT in the Windows Application of my ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express programming. I have created a project "spInvTotal.vb" in my VB 2005 Express with the following code:
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub printMyInvTotal()
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog=AP; Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim conn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.CommandText = "[dbo].[spInvTotal3]"
Dim param As New SqlParameter("@InvTotal", SqlDbType.Money)
param.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
cmd.Parameters.Add(param)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
'Print out the InvTotal in TextBox1
TextBox1.Text = param.Value
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
Throw
Finally
conn.Close()
End Try
End Sub
End Class
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I executed the above code and I got no errors, no warnings and no output in the TextBox1 for the result of "InvTotal"!!??
I have 4 questions to ask for solving the problems in this project:
#1 Question: I do not know how to do the "DataBinding" for "Name" in the "Text.Box1".
How can I do it?
#2 Question: Did I set the CommandType property of the command object to
CommandType.StoredProcedure correctly?
#3 Question: How can I define the 1 output parameter (@InvTotal) and
2 input parameters (@DateVar and @VendorVar), add them to
the Parameters Collection of the command object, and set their values
before I execute the command?
#4 Question: If I miss anything in print out the result for this project, what do I miss?
Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of being able to send an
unlimited amount of parameters to a stored proc and having the stored proc
detect how many parameters were sent?
Example:
1) calling the stored proc with 2 strings:
exec sp_myproc "a","b"
2) calling the stored proc with 7 strings:
exec sp_myproc "a","b","c","d","e","f","g"
The following sp_myproc would need to be able to support an unlimited amount
of parameters as well as detect how many were sent...
Thanks in advance for any help and/or code samples given!

Since a varchar max field can hold up to 2 billion chracters I really don't think I need to specify 2 billion as the size. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
I have MSDE installed on my computer and I'm using Web Data Administrator to manage my databses. The problem is that whenever I add a column with a length of more than 8000, I get the following error:
Length must be between 0 and 8000
If I create the column programmatically then i get this error:
The following error occured while executing the query:
Server: Msg 131, Level 15, State 2, Line 2
The size (8005) given to the column 'Article' exceeds the maximum allowed for any data type (8000).
I need several columns that can hold around
32,000 characters. What's the deal? Is this a limit with MSDE, or am I
missing something?

I have set up transaction replication between two databases. Data from a table in the first database is replicated to the same table in another database.
The table at the publisher already has some data in it. The table at the subscriber is empty. When the replication is synchronizing, I get the following errors in the replication monitor:
*The process could not bulk copy into table "dbo"."virtualdatalocations_waitingqueues". (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL20037) Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL20037
*Field size too large
The table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE virtualdatalocations_waitingqueues (
dataid int ,
personid int ,
queueid int ,
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_dataid
FOREIGN KEY(dataid) REFERENCES datalocations(id) ON DELETE CASCADE ,
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_personid
FOREIGN KEY(personid) REFERENCES persons(id),
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_queueid
FOREIGN KEY(queueid)REFERENCES waitingqueues(id)
);
It used to run fine in the past. I couldn't find any help on google or on forums.
Any help or comments are greatly appreciated.

Hi,I'm using c# with a tableadapter to call stored procedures. I'm running into a problem where if I have over a certain byte size or number of parameters being passed into my stored proc I get an exception that reads: "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized." If I remove one parameter, the problem goes away. Has anyone run into this before? Thanks,Mark

Hi,
I have asked this question on 3 forums now and never get an answer, I don't know what is so hard about this question but I will try it here.
I am using SHA512 in C# to convert a password and its salt to hashed. I need to store the password hash and the salt hash in the database in two fields. I was told to use binary field to store the hash data and that the output of SHA512 would ALWAYS be the same no matter how long the password is.
I modified this hash example to use only SHA512 and to work with byte array instead of plain text.
All I need to know now is what size I need to make my binary field to hold this password that is hashed.
http://www.obviex.com/samples/Code.aspx?Source=HashCS&Title=Hashing%20Data&Lang=C%23
Say I have a password which is 30 characters max, and a salt which is 16 characters max. The password and the hash are stored in seperate fields in the same table. They are both hashed using SHA512 and are both being stored as byte arrays in C#, what size to I need to make the binary data type in order to hold the password, and to hold the salt.
Thanks!

How do I find the current size of each field in a table's column?
I have a table with a field for notes/memos. I need to see which ones are about to reach the size limit and what the current size is.
Does this make sense?
Thank you,
Karen

We have a small table of about 13 million rows that needs altered. A column in the table needs to be changed from a varchar(20) to a varchar(500). When we ran the alter table script, 3 hrs later and it wasn't done running. Any suggestions on what we can do to speed up the process?
Thanks ahead of time
DMW
Edit:
We are running SQL Server 2000 and the db at the time was running in simple mood

Hi,
I have been running a merge publication & 4-5 subscriber all running perfectly good, but today I started getting this error below? I generated a new dynamic snapshot and re init the subscriber, but still the same. I synchronized the other subscribers and they are all running with no errors, even after a init. I.E. I would think this is data related, to this subscriber, but I have no further ideas how to track it down?
any ideas?
Regards

bcp "conCORD_ODS"."dbo"."MSmerge_contents" in "\OBSQL2005\ConcordReplData\MERCURYSQLEXPRESSOBSQL2005$DEV_CONCORD_ODS_CONCORD_ODSMSmerge_contents90_forall.bcp" -e "errorfile" -t"<x$3>" -r"<,@g>" -m10000 -SMERCURYSQLEXPRESS -T -w
To obtain an error file with details on the errors encountered when initializing the subscribing table, execute the bcp command that appears below. Consult the BOL for more information on the bcp utility and its supported options.
End of file reached, terminator missing or field data incomplete
Field size too large
The process could not bulk copy into table '"dbo"."MSmerge_contents"'.
The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have been unable to create or write to the message file. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write.

I have a select statement that is being processed through oSql on Sql Server 2000. There are 2 fields in the select statement that are defined in the dateabase as nvarchar(1). When I perform my select statement, they show up in the output as 4 char fields. See dataset below for example.

How do I get rid of the extra spaces in the output? I have tried using ltrim(rtrim(fielde)) to no avail. Fieldg (the S) is a nullable field and is being processed using an isnull(filedg, ' ').
The general statement is:
Select fielda, fieldb, fieldc, ltrim(rtrim(fieldd)), fielde, fieldf, isnull(fieldg, ' '), filedh from mytable
The functioality can be replicated using:
Select 'a', 'b'
---- ----
a b
(1 row(s) affected)
Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Aaron
