SQL Function To Convert RTF To Plain Text

Jul 23, 2005

Does anyone have the logic to convert RTF formatted data in a text
column into plain ascii text that I can use in a varchar variable or
field?

We have an app that allows formatted comments/notes to be stored in a
SQL 2000 text column. Ideally, I would like a trigger that would copy
any inserted comments into a seperate table, varchar field so that
these are viewable in other apps that can not display formatted RTF.

I would really like the logic to be all SQL based and not have to use a
client app to read/convert/insert the data in a batch mode.

Sp_password In Plain Text

Oct 1, 2007

Greetings all.
I am currently working to improve the security on a legacy application we have at my company. The app was written in vb6 years ago. We now have the app running against a sql 2005 server. One of the function/screens in the application is used to administrate users. (each user has a sql user id) and one of the functions is to reset the password. The vb code uses a call to sp_password. Here is the problem. We setup a network sniffer and found the command being in plain text. While the user logon is encrypted ( SSL Fallback) the sp_password commands issued by the app are plan text. Anyone know of a way to make this encrypted?

Plain Text Rendering - Again!

Nov 29, 2007

Hello List,



sorry to raise this again here. I have seen a lot of posts on this board about plain text rendering but never really a satisfactory answer. So my question is: Has anyone succeeded in developing a custom rendering extension which is able to render a report as plain text?

I am a Technical Lead in a project to convert and migrate reporting from Unix/C to Reporting Services 2005. One requirement is, to render the reports in plain text for archiving purposes. I know that there are a million options out there to archive in PDF and whatever. Well, we need plain text. No way around it! It is a governmental requirement!

I am about to pull the plug on SSRS 2005 just because we are not able to fulfill this requirement. And we are talking about a big project converting >700 reports!


Challenges we are facing:


Reporting components are rendered as they appear in a compnent list, one after each other. If you now have two multiline components side by side, i.e. two lists, the first list component in the array gets rendered and then the other. This makes it almost impossible to render the lines in those two components side by side. In the sample below, the Report Header would be rendered, then the Address block, then the Other Data block, then the Order History Table and then the Account Statement table.

Positioning of text boxes is almost impossible. We are able to find out how many centimeters/inches/millimeters/points a control is located from the left border. But how can we translate this into i.e. how many spaces will we need to add for padding?

The column width can't be determined. SSRS adds a line break if the cell text is longer than the column width.


We have reports which look something like this:



Code Block


Code Block

REPORT NAME

MANAGER NAME


ACCOUNT
REPORT DATE






First Name: XXXXXXXXXXXX Other Data: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Last Name: XXXXXXXXXXXX More Data: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Address: XXXXXXXXXXXX More Data: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
City: XXXXXXXXXXXX

Order History Account Statement

XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX




I also got some advice that SSRS is probably the wrong tool. And I also read this in some of the "Plain Text" posts here. And I am actually surprised about this. People suggest to look for some other tool and not use i.e. email subscrptions, other rendering formats, SSRS security model, snapshot history, report models and all the other goodies only because we can't render in simple text?

If anyone has any information to share, I would very much appreciate it. We also looked at third party tools and plug ins but couldn't find any! If anyone knows of a company who would be able to help us, let me know!

I really would love to pull this project off with SSRS 2005 because I Iike the technology and SSRS provides a lot of functionality we want to leverage. I believe SSRS is the right tool for us and it covers 95% of our business requirements! But at this stage it doesn't look very rosy! Because of the Plain Text rendering!

Cheers

Peter

CONVERT Function Use

Jul 13, 2004

I'll go right to the point:

I have a textbox in wich the user can seize a "money" value.

But when i'm doing the INSERT command, it fails and says I cannot implicitely convert nvarchar data (mytextbox.text) to money data.

I don't know how to handle this...

objCmd = New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO tbl_appel_service_pieces " & _
"(fld_nom_piece, fld_quantite, fld_prix, fld_description, fld_num_appel) " & _
"VALUES (@fld_nom_piece, @fld_quantite, @fld_prix, @fld_description, @fld_num_appel)", objConn)

objCmd.Parameters.Add("@fld_nom_piece", champsNomPiece.Text)
objCmd.Parameters.Add("@fld_quantite", champsQuantite.Text)
objCmd.Parameters.Add("@fld_prix", champsPrix.Text)
objCmd.Parameters.Add("@fld_description", champsDescription.Text)
objCmd.Parameters.Add("@fld_num_appel", champsNumAppel.Text)

objConn.Open()
objCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
objConn.Close()

afficherPieces()


How and where to do the conversion ? On the VALUES variable ?

New To Sql - Trying To Convert Vb Function To Udf

Jan 9, 2007

Hi

I'm an Access/VB coder by experience and trying to move apps to SQL Server 2000.
I have got to grips with the basics of DTS and tables and views and Stored Procedures (to an extent) but now need to upgrade an app that uses a vb function to produce a phased value for a set of budgets.

The VB function looks like this...


---------------------------------
Function calcPercentOfBudget(datFromDate As Date, datToDate As Date, iMonth As Integer, cBudget As Currency) As Currency

Dim iDuration As Integer
iDuration = DateDiff("d", datFromDate, datToDate) + 1

' if either date not in current year then 0 (both dates should be in same year)
If Year(datFromDate) <> Year(Now) Or Year(datToDate) <> Year(Now) Then
calcPercentOfBudget = 0
End If

Dim sRatio As Single, idaysInMonth As Integer, idaysInYear As Integer

' if passed month outside of period then 0
If Not (iMonth >= Month(datFromDate) And iMonth <= Month(datToDate)) Then
calcPercentOfBudget = 0
Exit Function
End If

idaysInMonth = daysInMonth(iMonth, Year(Now))


'if from date and to date in same month then 100% of budget
If Month(datFromDate) = Month(datToDate) Then
calcPercentOfBudget = cBudget
Exit Function
End If

' if passed month in From month then ratio of passed month (caters for 1st day of month - 100%)
If Month(datFromDate) = iMonth Then
'calcPercentOfBudget = (idaysInMonth + 1 - Day(datFromDate)) / idaysInYear * cBudget
calcPercentOfBudget = (idaysInMonth + 1 - Day(datFromDate)) / iDuration * cBudget
Exit Function
End If

'if passed month in To month then ratio of passed month (caters for last day of month - 100%)
If Month(datToDate) = iMonth Then
'calcPercentOfBudget = Day(datToDate) / idaysInYear * cBudget
calcPercentOfBudget = Day(datToDate) / iDuration * cBudget
Exit Function
End If

' if passed month within period then 100%
If iMonth > Month(datFromDate) And iMonth < Month(datToDate) Then
'calcPercentOfBudget = idaysInMonth / idaysInYear * cBudget
calcPercentOfBudget = idaysInMonth / iDuration * cBudget
Exit Function
End If

End Function
---------------------------------
Function daysInMonth(iMonth As Integer, iYear As Integer) As Integer

Dim datTemp As Date

datTemp = CDate("1/" & CStr(iMonth) & "/" & CStr(iYear))
datTemp = DateAdd("m", 1, datTemp)
datTemp = DateAdd("d", -1, datTemp)

daysInMonth = Day(datTemp)

End Function
---------------------------------


I have a UDF function LastDayInMonth to replace the daysInMonth vb function, and that works fine.

However I'm starting to get frustrated in trying to convert the main VB funciton to a UDF function. This is what I have got to, and as you'll see its totally wrong!...


CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[calcPercentOfBudget] (@datFrom as datetime, @datTo as datetime , @iMonth as int, @cBudget as money, @GetDate as datetime)
RETURNS money AS
BEGIN
declare @iDuration int
declare @returnvalue money
declare @sRatio decimal
declare @iDaysInMonth int

set @iDuration = datediff(d, @datFrom, @datTo)
set @iDaysinMonth = dbo.LastDayInMonth('1/' + cast(@iMonth as varchar) + '/' + cast(year(@getdate) as varchar))

case
when year(@datFrom) <> year(@getdate) or year(@datTo) <> year(@getdate)
set @returnvalue = 0
when not(@iMonth >= Month(@datFrom) and @iMonth <= month(@datTo)
set @returnvalue 0
when month(@datFrom) = month(@datTo)
@set @returnvalue = @cBudget
when month(@datFrom) = @iMonth
set @returnvalue = (@iDaysInMonth + 1 - day(@datFrom)) / @iDuration * @cBudget
when month(@datTo) = @iMonth
set @returnvalue = Day(datToDate) / iDuration * cBudget
when @iMonth > month(@datFrom) and @iMonth < month(@datTo)
set @returnvalue = @iDaysInMonth / @iDuration * @cBudget
end

return @returnvalue
END

This is my first post to this forum - so any constructive criticism will be welcomed.

Basically, where am I going wrong? - have I got the wrong end of the stick? Have I got the wrong stick? Have I got a stick of dynamite?!

All help greatfully received,
Paul:eek:

Need Help With CONVERT Function

Feb 28, 2007

I have a situation where I want to filter records for a given day. Thefield that stores the date/time uses the date() function as a default value,kind of a date/time stamp for the record.The problem is when I want to filter records for a given day instead of adate range. I use the CONVERT function to return just the date part of thefield (101 as a style parameter) and compare that to a start and stop date(both being the same) and I get nothing. The stored procedure is asfollows:Alter Procedure spESEnrollmentCount@StartDate smalldatetime, @StopDate smalldatetimeAsSELECT tblCustomers.CustomerName, tblCostCenters.CostCenter,COUNT(tblESEnrollments.EnrollmentID)AS [Count of Enrollments]FROM tblESEnrollmentsINNER JOIN tblCustomers ON tblESEnrollments.CustID = tblCustomers.CustIDINNER JOIN tblCostCenters ON tblCustomers.CostCenterID =tblCostCenters.CostCenterIDWHERE ( CONVERT(DATETIME, tblESEnrollments.DTStamp, 101) >= @StartDate) AND( CONVERT(DATETIME, tblESEnrollments.DTStamp, 101) <= @StopDate) AND(Rejected = 0)GROUP BY tblCustomers.CustomerName, tblCostCenters.CostCenterIf I put 10/31/06 in for both parameters shouldn't I get records dated10/31/06 if there are some?Thanks,Wes

Convert Access Function To SQL

Jul 20, 2005

I'm going crazy trying to convert an Access Function to SQL.From what I've read, it has to be done as a stored procedure.I'm trying to take a field that is "minutes.seconds" and convert it to minutes.This is what I have in Access:Function ConvertToTime (myAnswer As Variant)Dim myMinutesmyMinutes-(((((myAnswer * 100)Mod 100/100/0.6)+(CInt(myAnswer-0.4))))ConvertToTime =(myMinutes)End FunctionWhen I tried to modify it in SQL:CREATE PROCEDURE [OWNER].[PROCEDURE NAME] AS ConvertToTimeFunction ConvertToTime(myAnswer As Variant)Dim myMinutesmyMinutes = (((((myAnswer * 100)Mod 100)/100/0.6)+9CInt(myAnswer-0.4))))ConvertToTime=(myMinutes)EndI get an error after ConverToTime.

Convert Function Query Error

Jul 27, 2005

I am in the middle of creating an editable DatGrid:

Sub AccessoryGrid_EditCommand(source As Object, e As MxDataGridCommandEventArgs)
    AccessoryGrid.EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex
End Sub

Sub AccessoryGrid_BeforeUpdate(source As Object, e As MxDataGridUpdateEventArgs)
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessoryID",
AccessoryGrid.DataSource.DataSource.Tables(0).Rows(e.Item.DataSetIndex)
("AccessoryID"))
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessoryName", CType(e.Item.Cells(1).Controls(0),TextBox).Text)
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessoryPrice", CType(e.Item.Cells(2).Controls(0),TextBox).Text)
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessorySold", CType(e.Item.Cells(3).Controls(0),TextBox).Text)
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessoryDesc", CType(e.Item.Cells(4).Controls(0),TextBox).Text)
    e.NewValues.Add("@AccessoryImage", CType(e.Item.Cells(5).Controls(0),TextBox).Text)
End Sub

For some reason, I get an error message like this:
Server Error in '/' Application.

Disallowed
implicit conversion from data type nvarchar to data type smallmoney,
table 'cardb.dbo.accessories', column 'AccessoryPrice'. Use the CONVERT
function to run this query.

My main question is, how can I convert my column 'AccessoryPrice' to smallmoney?

I have been trying to get rid of this error by trying to change the
field type within my database with no success, I keep on getting the
same error either way.

I would be very greatful if anybody can  help me.
