SQL Server 2008 :: Storing Column Value To A Column
Sep 9, 2015
I just have a question regarding storing values to a column in ms sql 2008.
Why is it that the value I inserted at the column is truncated when selected in a query.
The column for this is created to accept max. values.
-> Message VARCHAR(MAX) NULL
The string which I need to insert is a combination of characters with a length of 14,720.
According to some forums, the max value that a column can hold is 8000 chars. only (Is this true? even though I set it to MAX?)

I am getting an error importing a csv file both using SSIS and SSMS. The csv is comma delimited with quotes for text qualifiers. The file gets partially loaded and then gives me an error stating The column delimiter for column "MyColumn" was not found. In SSIS it gives me the data row which is apparently causing the problem but when I look at the file in a text editor at the specific row identified the file has the comma delimiter and it looks fine. I am using SQL Server 2008.

I'm trying to write a query that will display the formula for a computed column in SQL Server 2008R2.
I have looked here: [URL] ....
and it say (at least I think) that I can look at the Formula property of COLUMNPROPERTY like this:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME ,
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsComputed'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'Formula'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsDeterministic')
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Event' AND COLUMN_NAME = 'CurrentAttendance'
I know the column is computed and I can see the formula in SSMS. I wanted to do this in T-SQL. How to get this value?

I have a request to export some table data to excel and the "notes" column (varchar 255) contains multiple lines separated by CR/LF. when I export to excel, the first record with CR/LF messes up the column alignment in excel, throwing off the format from that point on. how can i export to excel so that it preserves these CR/LF. or if not, how can I remove these characters so that excel can handle it?
See attached example

I need to add a calculated column item in the same column. Please see SQL Codes for both existing data and desired outcome.
Product O is added according to:
for 201501 Product O= sum of en_count for product Y,W,N when yrmnth=201501
for 201502 Product O= sum of sum of en_count for product Y,W,N when yrmnth=20150
SQL:
--Existing Data
--===== If the test table already exists, drop it
IF OBJECT_ID('TempDB..#Table1') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Table1
--===== Create the test table with
CREATE TABLE #Table1

I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

I have two tables having one row identifier column each of int datatype. Both these columns are part of the respective primary keys. Now as a part of my process, i'm inserting one small part of data from one table to another table. This was working fine but suddenly started getting error like
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_TargetTable'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'DW.TargetTable'. The duplicate key value is (58544748).First I checked with DBCC CHECKIDENT with NORESEED and found that there is difference in the current identity value and current column value. I fixed it by running DBCC CHECKIDENT. But to my surprise again got the same issue. interesting thing is that the error comes after inserting 65466 records.

Can I accomplish encrypting a column with a trigger similar to below, but without the 'SSN' column?
I added the SSN column just so I could pass an UNencrypted value. Seems round-about & clunky.
This works:
Insert into TestSSNs(UserID, SSN, Name) VALUES (NEWID(), '890-12-0007', 'Gina')
---------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE TestSSNs (
UserIDuniqueidentifier,
SSNVarchar(11) , --plain text, should always be null
eSSN VarBinary(128), --encrypted value
[Name]Varchar(50)
);
CREATE TRIGGER dbo.IU_TestSSNs ON dbo.TestSSNs

Note: This is just a sample .i am looking something dynamic because i have around 50 tables.i can do with query below but since i don't have static columns and table i am looking for something dynamic
select ID, (a+'-'+B) as Value from (
select ID,'NAME'+'-'+NAME as a,'Country'+'-'+Country as b from #test1

I have a table and a specific column inside this table. I know this table is being updated, by using sys.dm_db_index_usage_stats, I was able to determine this, by some process (stored procedure / SQL Job / etc), but the problem is, I am not sure what process is doing it.
How would I search our SQL Server 2008 database to find any process that manipulates this table / column (I only care about Inserts / Updates and Deletes, but do not really care for SELECT).

I was wondering if there was a way to redirect an insert to another column...
Example:
Original Insert Statement:
INSERT INTO [table] ([columnA], [columnB])
SELECT '2015-01-01 00:00:00', 99.99
We have changed [columnB] from a decimal(19,9) to a computed column. So instead, we added another column [ColumnC] to take [ColumnB]'s insert data. I thought we could've used a trigger instead of insert, but that fails with the message "cannot be modified because it is either a computed column or is the result of a UNION operator".
This is the trigger I was using:
CREATE TRIGGER [Trigger] ON [table]
INSTEAD OF INSERT
AS
INSERT INTO [table] ([columnA], [columnC])
SELECT [dataA], [dataB]
FROM Inserted

I have a computed column that I want to cast as decimal.
The two columns it calculates from are both varchar.
Why can I cast the column as INT, but when I try to cast as decimal, I get the following error?
Arithmetic overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric.
what this error means and why I get it only when I want to cast to decimal.

I'm creating a sql stored procedure inside this proc it returns some information about the user, i.e location, logged in, last logged in, etc I need to join this on to the photos table and return the photo which has been set as the profile picture, if it hasn't been set then return the first top 1 if that makes sense?
The user has the option to upload photos so there might be no photos for a particular user, which I believe I can fix by using a left join
My photos table is constructed as follows:
CREATE TABLE [User].[User_Photos](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[UserId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[PhotoId] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[IsProfilePic] [bit] NULL,
[Code] ....
Currently as it stands the proc runs but it doesn't return a particular user because they have uploaded a photo so I need to some how tweak the above to return null if a photo isn't present which is where I'm stuck.

I ran a db update script to update the datatype for a column from a tinyint to a smallint:
ALTER TABLE MyTable
ALTER COLUMN Age smallint
Then I ran another db update script to update the value in these 2 columns:
update MyTable
set Age = Age * 12,
However, the second db update script returns the following error:
Msg 220, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Arithmetic overflow error for data type tinyint, value = 1440.
The statement has been terminated.
SSMS shows the column with the new data type of smallint. I even restarted SSMS but I still get the error above. 1440 is out of range for a tiny int but should be in range for a smallint. Both scripts need to be executed together in sequence by the release manager.

We're encrypting a column of Social Security numbers. Developer needs to execute a query -->similar<-- to:
Select <bunch of columns>
From dbo.People p
Where p.SSN = @Input_SSN_Param --I know this won't work.
If we write the where clause like
Where DecryptByKey(p.SSN) = @Input_SSN_Param
Won't every SSN in the table be decrypted? Seems like a bad idea, performance-wise.
Should I/we add a column to hold a hash of the SSN; and use the hash for comparisons?

I've look at several different methods for removing leading zero's from a column but I need to remove trailing data from a VARCHAR column. For some reason, the old database saved the time along side the date in my client's app.
For example:
The old database format "2015-07-28 00:00:00"
I need the data in this column in the new database to only be the date "2015-07-28", there are alot of rows with this issue.
Is there a query I can run to remove the 00-00-00 from all of the rows? Some of the fields actually have a time in there like this: 2015-07-28 12:15:35, with this one, I don't think it's going to be easy but if I could at least remove the 00-00-00 from all the rows that have it, that would be a good start.
