I have a column with datatype varchar(2000). When I use the select statement to query for this column I only can see the content up 256 characters. How can I query to view the entire string above 256 characters?
Thanks.
HiI have developed a sql procedure for updating some xml content using SQL 2005 xQuery features.For example:Declare @xmlContent = '<books><book name="asp"/>< book name = "sql"/></books>'--Now I want to add attribute "book_id" to the xml content.SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"1" } into (/books/book[@name="asp"])[1] ')SET @xmlContent.modify('insert attribute book_id{"2" } into (/books/book[@name="sql"])[1] ')SELECT @xmlContent--OUTPUT will be<books><book name="asp" book_id="1"/><book name="sql" book_id="2"/></books>QUESTIONQ1. Do we have any extension or plugin such that this SQl 2005 xquery feature can be incorporated in SQL 2000?Q2. If the answer for Q1. is no (as I expect), then do we have any TSQL feature in SQL 2000 for modifying xml content?I found all examples in SQl 2000 related with "openxml" function which performs the select kind of operations only. Like selecting data in XML format OR converting xml data in to tabular format. But I couldn't find any xml modification TSQL in SQl 2000 which can add element/attributes or change values.one workaround could be to consider xml content as string and use string functions to modify the content.But is there any more sensible approach available in SQL 2000?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello, I'm learning about asp .net and I've created a simple application with SQLServer integration. I have 3 text boxes where I can insert text and then use them as parameters for the Select query string of a SqlDataSource which is then bound to a DataGrid.My question is: Is there any default configuration I can use with the SqlDataSource which do not add a given field as a parameter to the WHERE clause if the text box content is empty ? Sure I can sweep through all my text boxes, check if they're empty and dynamically build the WHERE clause with correct parameters, but is theres a built-in, more elegant way to solve this ?Thanks in advance.Arashikage

I have a table with 3 fields...
IDnum,content,application
eg
123,stop,fb
123,start,fb
123,continue,fb
123,fault,fb
123,start,gt
123,stop,gt
123,continue,gt
123,start,ha
321,stop,fb
321,start,fb
321,continue,fb
321,fault,fb
321,start,gt
I need to know All those unique IDs that have "start" against them, but have not got "stop" against them, I'm not interested in the other content strings.
I need to query it based on a specific application ID.
there will be many records from each IDnum, but only one start for each. I need to know all those IDnums that have "started" and not "stopped"

I have
Customer table, tblCust: ID; Name

Product table, tblProduct: ID; Name

Order tblOrder, tblOrder: CustID; ProductID; Amount

How do I write the SQL query so that the values in tblProduct become column, currently I have 20 items in that table. So, it will return something like this according to the information that I provide above?

I have VS2008 Express and I am using Sql Server Compact Edition 3.5 which is distributed with it.
As I experienced, there is no possibility to use this database from Sql Server Management Studio (because it is version 3.5 and Management Studio demands version 3.1).
So, the only possibility to design a query is to use the built in Query Builder in Visual Studio Express. This query builder does not save the Diagram Pane content layout. I mean, when a query has 10 tables, I place these tables in the Diagram Pane in some order that makes sense (e.g. to make all relations visible). After saving and reopening the query in Query Builder, all tables are on the left side, in a complete disorder.
Is it possible to somehow save the Diagram Pane content along with the SQL ??
I have a column in a table which is varchar(2000) in SQL Server7.0
when i select columnname from tablename, it truncates that
column and does not show me the complete contents.
i checked the compatibilty level of my database and it is 70.
in the BOL it says that if the compatibilty level is less than 70,
then it will truncate the column to 255.
what am i doing worng?
please help.
I would like to update a varchar field with an update statement that appends information to what is currently stored in the field, for example in the Statement field I may currently have a name (Mark) and I want to add a unique identifier to the end of the name so that it may look like, Markq1572, is there a way to do this in an update statement?

We have a customer that is running SQL2012 and we are seeing a weird result on a query when we run it on their db. It is based off of a table that has about 30 columns but in this case we only care about 2 of them.
[Number] [varchar](15) NOT NULL
[Person_ID] [varchar](12) NULL
Here is the query we are doing:
Select Number,Person_ID From TableName where LP='ABC123'
The result I get back is the following:
Number:1
Person_ID:13864
The Person_ID should be a result of another table that created that Person_ID but it doesn't exist in that table. So we do not know where that 13864 is coming from. When we open that record through our application it shows Nothing for the Person_ID in that field.
When we do this query on our copy we get back
Number:1
Person_ID:
Which is exactly what we should see as the result.
Could there be a sql server setting that is set on their server that could possibly be given us back 13864 for a NULL value?
I have a table of zip codes, some with Canadian zips. I'd like to takea zip code and search for nearby zips. For example:Dim theZip As Integer = textbox1.text....Parameter.Add(@ziplow, SqlDbType.Int, 5).Value = (theZip - 10)....Parameter.Add(@ziphigh, SqlDbType.Int, 5).Value = (theZip + 10)SELECT * from ZIPCODES where Cast(zip_code as Integer) BETWEEN @lowzipAND @highzipProblem is the letters in the Canadian records cannot be cast asintegers for this process. I get this error:Syntax error converting the varchar value '53151 1' to a column of datatype int.Is there a SQL query that can exclude if no cast can be made to anInteger?Thanks!Anton

I have looked far and wide and have not found anything that works to allow me to resolve this issue.
I am moving data from DB2 using the MS OLEDB Provider for DB2. The OLEDB source sees the column of data as DT_TEXT. I setup a destination to SQL Server 2005 and everything looks good until I try and run the package.
I get the error:
[OLE DB Source [277]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft DB2 OLE DB Provider" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

Any suggestions on how I can get the large string data in the varchar column in DB2 into the varchar(max) column in SQL Server 2005?
Hi, I need help. Understatement of the year right now, too =
So... I've created a stored procedure that partially pulls a SQL union query to give me a complete one-line result set of a bunch of data... four separate selects comprise the query.
The tables are structured identically to each other, but the values being pulled are specific and distinct. All of the non-date values stored are varchar values in the tables, and yet when I execute the SQL union query, I get the error message: Syntax error converting the varchar value to a column of data type int.
I know SQL does implicit conversions, however Im not sure why it's trying to do that with this query, I suppose. it should have been straightforward.
Any suggestions? Here is the query logic to look at, in case I'm missing the obvious
exec('

For the life of me I cannot figure out why SSIS will not convert varchar data. instead of using the table to table method, I wrote a SQL query so that I could transform the datatype ntext to varchar 512 understanding that natively MS is going towards all Unicode applications.
The source fields from Access are int, int, int and varchar(512). The same is true of the destination within SQL Server 2005. the field 'Answer' is the varchar field in question....
I get the following error

I have the following code and i want to passed more than one value:

This error occur:

Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 6
Error converting data type varchar to numeric.
I change :
DECLARE @myvendedor AS numeric(4,0)
and this error appear:

I have a table that contains a lot of demographic information. The data is usually small (<20 chars) but ocassionally needs to handle large values (250 chars). Right now its set up for varchar(max) and I don't think I want to do this.
How does varchar(max) store info differently from varchar(250)? Either way doesn't it have to hold the container information? So the word "Crackers" have 8 characters to it and information sayings its 8 characters long in both cases. This meaning its taking up same amount of space?
Also my concern will be running queries off of it, does a varchar(max) choke up queries because the fields cannot be properly analyzed? Is varchar(250) any better?
Should I just go with char(250) and watch my db size explode?
Usually the data that is 250 characters contain a lot of blank space that is removed using a SPROC so its not usually 250 characters for long.
Any insight to this would be appreciated.
Hello, I have the following query in Access 2000 that I need to convertto SQL 2000:UPDATE tblShoes, tblBoxesSET tblShoes.Laces1 = NullWHERE (((tblShoes.ShoesID)=Int([tblBoxes].[ShoesID])) AND((tblBoxes.Code8)="A" Or (tblBoxes.Code8)="B"))WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;The ShoesID in the tblShoes table is an autonumber, however the recordsin the tblBoxes have the ShoesID converted to text.This query runs ok in Access, but when I try to run it in the SQLServer 2000 Query Analizer I get errors because of the comma in the"UPDATE tblShoes, tblBoxes" part. I only need to update the tblShoesfield named Laces1 to NULL for every record matching the ones in thetblBoxes that are marked with an "A" or an "B" in the tblBoxes.Code8field.Any help would be greatly appreciated.JR

Hi everyone,
I'm just using TEXTBOX control to save data into my DB. My question is, if I have multiple lines of sentences, it does not store as what it looks like. For example;
Hello, Mike
It stores into the database as "Hello, Mike" and if I read from the database, it does not have seperate lines and shows it like this;
Hello, Mike
How can I store the contents into database and make the contents as original? (Sorry for the poor English, but I hope you understand it.)

View 2 Replies View RelatedOkay, moving to developing a small site that will be storing articles - that is a site largely consisting of html marked up articles with images. We already have an SQL Server so it is becoming the back-end.
So, since I'm not an SQL Server expert, some general advice on this would be appreciated? The articles, as I say in HTML (largely just markup for titles, and general text) would be stored in the DB? As Text datatypes?
How about the images...on disk or in SQL?
hi everybody,
The problem is, I have a table with one column of varchar(8000) datatype. It has got 1000's of records. Through Query Analyzer, I am not able to view my records after 257 columns in my table, even I increased my textsize by using 'set textsize' command.
Any other setting is available to correct this. Any help is appreciated.
