View 2 RepliesHi All,I have come up against a wall which i cannot get over.I have an sql db where the date column is set as a varchar (i know, should have used datetime but this was done before my time and i've got to work with what is there). The majority of values are in the format dd/mm/yyyy. However, some values contain the word 'various'.I'm attempting to compare the date chosen on a c# .net page with the values in the db and also return all the 'various' values as well.I have accomplished casting the varchar to a datetime and then comparing to the selected date on the .net page. However, it errors when it comes across the 'various' entrant.Is there anyway to carry out a select statement comparing the start_date values in the db to the selected date on the .net page and also pull out all 'various' entrants at the same time without it erroring? i thought about replacing the 'various' to a date like '01/01/2010' so it doesn't stumble over the none recognised format, but am unsure of how to do it.This is how far i have got: casting the varchar column to datetime and comparing. SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE Cast(SUBSTRING(Start_Date,4,2) + '/' + SUBSTRING(Start_Date,1,2) + '/' +SUBSTRING(Start_Date,7,4) as datetime) '" + date + "'"Many thanks in advance!

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I would like to print a report that is 64x64 matrix. I want the columns to be narrow and the headings for the columns to be vertical like is possible in excel. The text for the heading fields also comes from a stored procedure.
I have hunted and pecked around but I cannot seem to find an option that sets the orientation of the text for a text box to vertical.
Is there one?
If not, does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can make these column headings vertical and nicely fomatted all the time? Again, looking for the same effect as in excel.
Thanks
I have tables in my database, tblNames1, tblNames2, tblNames3, and a main addresses table (currently empty). Once I've imported the address data I need to match the addressIDs in the names tables to the Primary ID in the address table based on the values of a field CompanyName (which is common to all the tables) My issue is that I have a huge CSV file with the master address information but obviously SQL server needs to assign foreign keys so the names tables can linked to corresponding rows in address table. It's a a many to 1 relationship as their will be one address with multiple name entries. All the names are normalized so everything can be matched up...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am writing a query in SQL Analyzer to put into a DTS Package. Everything works perfectly in my query, except for the fact that all of the columns are left-justified, and I need to right justify four of the columns that have numbers. These columns are "Land", "Improvement", "Total", and "Farmstead".
Here is the query in question:
Select PARCEL,
DISTRICT,
NAME_INDEX,
ADDRESS1,
ADDRESS2,
ADDRESS3,
ADDRESS4,
LAND,
IMPROVEMENT,
TOTAL,
(CASE WHEN vwtyroneexportnew.homestead>0 THEN 'Homestead' ELSE ''END) as [HOMESTEAD],
FARMSTEAD,
(CASE WHEN vwtyroneexportnew.clean_green= 'A' THEN 'C&G' Else ''END) as [CLEAN_GREEN]
FROM vwtyroneexportnew
WHERE year_id=year(getdate())
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone advise me of a convenient way to make a copy of a database in SQL2005. I need to make a complete copy - including all Stored procedures, functions tables and table contents.
I want the place the copy ont he sae SQL server but obviously under a different name.
I have a table with about 2 million records.
One of the fields has data seperated by a comma. I need to be able to grap the data for each record and split those items into their own table in seperate rows. This is easy in Asp but the page will timeout before it can process all the records.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,Rick

Hi all,
I have built a Disaster Recovery Site for my DB.on periodic basis, trn files from production server reach DR server and DR setup will apply them locally.
If the flow is smooth then no issues, if one of the file does not reach DR
the entire setup will halt for the want of the file and I dn't have any means to
know which file is missing.
Both my production and DR site located remotely behind firewalls, i.e i can't
physically access the servers or remotely login to the server.
Can anyone tell me how to see the contents in a folder in the server using
SQL query .
Any help is highly appreciated
Thanks and Regards

Is there a way to mask the contents of a cell or column? I have a table that stores passwords and I would like to mask the password much like Access does with asterisks. I know I can restrict the column based on user but that creates other problems on the frontend.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a series of records, that are displayed as contents in a .NET application,i know i can order the items to be dynamic, i.e I set the top item in the contents,

How can I set an on insert constraint, or what its called for this in SQL Server?

I am storing data temporarily in a database... and periodically needto update that huge database, so just has to copy that temp DB to theoriginal one.Using sql may take a few hours to finish this operation. I think youcan do "export" from temp database into a file and "import" into thehuge database. That will be binary data exort and import and hencewill be faster. But, I am not sure if all databases will support thatthough.So, is there any other solution?

I have a report that has a snapshot enabled. I made some changes to my report and redeployed it, but when I view the report from the Report Manager web site the old version is getting used. Apparently the snapshot includes the rdl and the data and not just the data. Can anyone else confirm this? If this is the case, a new snapshot must be created after the report format is modified.

Hello
I want to have a print of table records in sql server express.

How can i print table contents in sql express environment ?
Thank you for helping me.
Hello to everyone.
I have two questions.
1) As you know it's possible to get information about models by using the schema rowsets in c#. I wondered that it is possible to get datasource and datasource views contents programmatically? And if you have some pieces of code please write here.
2) In the topic http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/ssdm/Default.aspx?tabid=61&Id=6 it says that visio can help us to draw algorithms visual outputs. Could anyone send me or paste the links of screenshots of sucessful rendering.
3) i have an error in my sql server management studio. It gives an error message whenever i clicked on an of menu items in the left pane.(www.ahmetselman.com/error.jpg) in this url you can see my screenshot. Has anyone here, faced this problem? Why i got this error?
Hi,
I am relatively new to this stuff.
I am using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express (9.00.1399.00)
Can someone tell me the way to get a table and its content to another database (I use two at webhosts4life)
Or perhaps a way to export the data of a table so I can do it at a later stage.
Is that at all possible with this program or do I have to use the non-express version?
Thanks in advance,
Lex
Hello, Its hard trying to explain this.
I have 3 tables
Table 1 is where the users are stored, each user has a username and a userrank
Table 2 is where the points that decides the userrank are stored
Table 3 contains the available userranks like this
Table 1 (user_list) looks briefly like this:username nvarchar(20),userrank int, -- Reference to Table3 id... alot more fields
Table 2 (settings_profile) looks like this:username nvarchar(20),total_active_points int,... some more fields
Table 3 (data_ranks) looks like this:id int primary key auto inc,rankname nvarchar(20),min_pts int,max_pts int
Points get added to table 2 whenever they do something that generates points on the site. Points also get withdrawn every 7 days, so a user can only collect points for 7 days, on the 8th day, all points he earned on the 1st day is reduced from the current points with this code:
WHILE (SELECT @username = username, @id = id, @temp1 = ap_sentmails, @temp2 = ap_createdthreads, @temp3 = ap_createdanswers, @temp4 = ap_signguestbook, @temp5 = ap_blogcomment, @temp6 = ap_createblogentry, @temp7 = ap_profilefirsttime, @temp8 = ap_profilephoto, @temp9 = ap_activateguestbook, @temp10 = ap_addnewfriend, @temp11 = ap_superguruvote, @temp12 = ap_forumtopicvote, @temp13 = ap_labervote, @temp14 = ap_funstuffitemvote, @temp15 = ap_movievote, @temp16 = ap_actorvote, @temp17 = ap_money_new WHERE (created < Dateadd(dd, -7, @todaysdate))BEGINSET @sum = 0SET @sum = @temp1 + @temp2 + @temp3 + @temp4 + @temp5 + @temp6 + @temp7 + @temp8 + @temp9 + @temp10 + @temp11 + @temp12 + @temp13 + @temp14 + @temp15 + @temp16 + @temp17UPDATE settings_profile SET total_active_points = total_active_points - @sum WHERE (username = @username)DELETE FROM konto_daylist WHERE (id = @id)END
Now my question is this, i want to loop thru the table A, collect all usernames inside of it, then run it against table b and table c to determine the current rank of the user.Something like this...
DECLARE @username nvarchar(20)DECLARE @pts int, @rank int
...something that starts a loop thru table A (user_list) and get the username into @username...
SELECT @pts = total_active_points FROM settings_profile WHERE (username = @username)-- Determine the rank here, by compairing the points the user have against the pointstabel in table data_ranksSELECT @rank = id FROM data_ranks WHERE (pts_min => @pts AND pts_max < @pts)UPDATE user_list SET rank = @rank WHERE (username = @username)
...next persion in the loop...
This SP runs once a day and will first reduce the points from 8days ago, then it will run thru all the users and determine their new rank...
But how do i loop thru all the users? with a cursor?
Hi,
For some reason I can't use the edit, update or insert features on my remote shared server, so I am looking to create a web page that has text boxes on it, that I can enter data into, that will be saved into my database.
This is opposed to entering the data directly into the database itself. I want to be able to use a webpage, for simply adding new data, and saving it so that the new data updates and saves over the top of the old data.
What are the steps involved in doing this?
Any example code for just one text box would be appreciated, I could then extend it to suit my needs. Tia.
I have quite a few DTS's to work through while analysing current SQL databases for a client. Problem is I can't seem to find a way in SQL (Enterprise Manager) to print the contents of a DTS package. This is quite frustrating in that I have to go an "Design" the package, then click on the properties for each step and copy and paste the contents into Notepad/Wordpad. Surely Microsoft have something to ease the pain?
If anyone can help me on this one, I would be extremely grateful.
