I have an ASP.Net page that allows people to type in strings and store them into a SQL Server DB; which in turn gets displayed on a website.
The project has an admin side that can add/delete/edit announcements, which get displayed on an intranet site. These announcements can be clicked on to display further detail. When announcements are clicked on a javascript popup window is generated that displays the strings. All data is stored in a SQL Server DB.
What I need to know is: how do I check to see if a string has a quotation mark or apostrophe in it so that I can replace it with the appropriate HTML code? (Though it seems I can't display an apostrophe, even when using the HTML code ''')
If I store the string as was entered by the administrator (with quotation marks instead of '"'), the popup window will not display.
Hi, My first post. I am trying to run a select query to a linked server (Cache database on VMS OS) from Microsoft SQL 2000 Query Analyzer. Here is my problem query: SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL', 'DSN=SHADOW', 'SELECT * FROM Member_Acct WHERE close_dt > {d'2007-07-01'}'
I am getting this error: Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 4 Line 4: Incorrect syntax near '2007'.
I have tried using double quotes and everythingelse I could. Database expect me to send date in this format {d'YYYY-MM-DD'}.
I have a block of xml that I wish to update in my sql database. The problem I have is the the data has double and single quotation marks in it and all my attempts to send this to my sql database gives me errors reguarding the quotation marks. Is there a way I can send the xml to the database without these problems. I am using the xml in the sql database to make it easy to read and right the xml as xmldatasource does not allow reading and writing easily. this section shows the problem, i am loading xml from a file and trying to insert this into the sql database XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(Server.MapPath("xml/wt.xml"));reader.WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling.None;XmlDocument xmlDocF = new XmlDocument();xmlDocF.Load(reader);this.SqlDataSource1.UpdateCommand = "update [data] set [linkXML] '" + xmlDocF.InnerXml+ "' where [index] = 1" ;this.SqlDataSource1.Update();reader.Close(); pls help
I'm having a little trouble with a large query I have written to be sent as an email.
I want to send it as a csv so I've added commas in between each value in the query.
This is causing an error though, I think the ' that surround the commas are closing the query early. Is there any way around this? like encapsulating the query?
I'm using BCP for some command line SQL statement. The file I'm generating is comma delimited. Some of my records contain comma's in them and require them to be in quotation marks. What is the parameter for BCP to put those entries that have commas in them to have those records be in quotation marks?
I'd like some ideas on how to help out my VB staff when it comes to the tick ( ' ) mark being used in front end applications. When users enter data into the front end, and they include tick marks (eg: Sam's Auto Store), this causes trouble in how the app uses that data in a WHERE clause and other places. Does anyone have any slick ideas or experience in handling this. We have experimented with search & replace, double tick marks ( '' ), etc...
I have problem with sql query with aspnet. In my web page, i have a text box for input name or string to search in database. I have problem if the search string consist of quotation mark => ' . Any suggestions? Thanks.
I am working on a project to import information from one database table to another. This info includes names, addresses, etc. I am running into a challenge whenever one of the names, such as O'Brien, causes problems in the sql statement. Is there a way for me to tell it to ignore the ' in O'Brien?
Hi,I've created a table in SQL Server 2000 and I'm now trying to searchthrough the data and return specific rows. I'm using this command:select * from Export where libelle_court='Recherche d'investisseurs'The problem is this: The search fails whenever there is a curlysingle quotation mark within the table field ( ' as opposed to ' ).For example, if the field entry in my table is this:Recherche d'investisseursthen both of the following commands retun no fields:select * from Export where libelle_court='Recherche d'investisseurs'select * from Export where libelle_court='Recherche d''investisseurs'However, if the field entry in my table is this:Recherche d'investisseursthen both of the commands quoted above succeed.How can I get SQL Server to treat the curly quotation mark correctlyand return the right results? I've tried changing the collation butwith no success.Thanks,Rob
Hi I have an asp.net 2.0, web app with a sql 2000 db. I am having a problem when users cut and past content from Word and Excel and past it into a textbox apostrophes are replaced as question marks when saved to db.

Is there a way I a can force my sql server to only allow characters in a certain format, eg iso-8859-1 to resolve this problem Please help somebody must have a resolutionMany thanks in advance
Hi all,I have an old ASP .NET 1.1 application that I haven't had time to rebuild with .NET 2.0. No changes have been made to the application or the SQL Server the application uses. I have a web form where users can type multiple lines of text, and it is entered into an SQL database (SQL 2000 Enterprise) into a column with a datatype of "text". Recently (it seems out of nowhere), If my users enter a carriage return into the webform, it becomes a question mark in the sql database. It's really a bit funny, but also annoying, lol. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Thanks so much!

Please can anyone help me - I am trying to establish whether there are any reserved symbols in SQL passwords
eg % £ " $ ( / < * etc
The SQL BOL has a list of reserved words but I cannot find a list of reserved symbols.
We have a problem where by for example if the main part of the password is "test" and my user wants to add a punctuation mark into this we get "You are attempting to use an invalid character message"
Specifically
"test$" is accepted "$test" is not accepted None of "te+st" "+test" "test+" are accepted.
Has anyone else come across this and found a list of the logic that produces these results so I can point my users in the right direction?
I have this table of Marks as shown below. All I need is to find the average Marks at various intervals of S.no. That is I need averages at every 3rd S.No. as shown.
S.No. Marks 1 ------ 5 2 ------ 5 3 ------ 6 1st Average Value here (16/3) 4 ------ 5 5 ------ 6 6 ------ 7 2nd Average Value here (18/3) 7 ------ 7 8 ------ 7 9 ------ 8 3rd Average Value here (22/3) 10 ----- 8 11 ----- 9 12 ----- 8 4th Average Value here (26/3)
So basically I need a new table which will have 4 average values for the table above. Of-course the table can be much bigger and the average values can be at any nth value of S.No.
I have an app that I created and I am trying to upload the MS SQL DB to my web host. I downloaded MS SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard and then open up Visual Studio 2005. I right click my database, and then try publishing it. I convert to a MS 2000 DB (was originally 2005). I save the .sql statement and try copying into the host's (Godaddy) query analyzer. (It's only about 400k). Well, I tried cutting and pasting the doc so I could see exactly where I get the error. I get a good part of it successful, but then I try the pasting the code below (not modified at all) and get the error about "unclosed quotation..." I skip this and go to the next process, and is successful, but often, I am getting this error.... WHY? Please help. Code copied directly from generated script from MS Publishing wizard:

Is it possible to remove the tick marks that I have circled in red?The chart has data Week by week over a year, and the T1, T2 etc are equivalent to Quarter1, Quarter 2 etcI've got a 3 level grouping, with the top level being Year, then Quarter, then Week. The label for the "Week" grouping is set to blank, and that's why you don't see it here.Removing the Tick marks would make the chart legend more readable in my opinion.

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?

When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions: 1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server? 2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server? 3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?
