How come no matter what I do SQL server always truncates my dates when they are saved to the database? I save a complete date like 1/1/1900 6:13:42 and no matter what I do it always truncates the seconds off of all my dates, so I always get 1/1/1900 6:13:00. It makes no since because when I save the record the seconds are there, but when I pull it back up they are always gone.
View 3 RepliesThe sql database has an ntext (16) field which contains "information" and is used as a free form turnover log. When I bring this data into an ASP page the "information" gets truncated.
I have tried getchunk, however all formatting on the field is lost.
I have tried putting the field at the end of my query - no change.
I have tried querying the data as a separate sqlrs connection - no change.
I have tried using substring to break it down, the first substring works, however I get errors on the second (Expression result length exceeds the maximum. 8000 max, 12000 found).
I also tried to use substring in sql query anaylzer - and only get the first ~4180 characters.
Is there a way to split this field into multiple nvarchar fields in my temporary table in sql and then concatenate back together in asp report???
I'm importing from a SQL table that has data fields typed as numeric(18,2) and the OLEDB data source component converts the data to integers (as viewed in the data viewer). I've preceeded the column names with (DT_NUMERIC,18,2) with no results. When the data gets saved to a table with the field typed as money, it appends .00. The truncation of pennies (decimal) results in the diminution of the daily results as much as $1,000. How do I pass the pennies through the OLEDB data source component? Is this truncation by default,or is there something I'm missing in the configuration? thanks.

I can't paste text (directly into table row via enterprise manager) into a varchar (5000) field, truncates after about 960 char. Length of string trying to paste is about 1400 characters including spaces. No special characters (one apostrophe). Error happens intermittently.

I created a stored procedure based custom conflict resolver in SQL 2005, I return the winning result set and also save that result set to a test table to compare the values. The values saved to the test table are correct but some of the values saved as the conflict winter are truncated.
Example a char(3) filed is updated at the subscriber as €˜111€™ and updated at the publisher as €˜222€™, in my custom conflict resolver if I use the value from the subscriber the conflict resolver updates the field as €™11 €˜, if I use the publisher value the conflict resolver updates the field as €™22 €˜. Now the same records is saved to the test table correctly as either €˜111€™ or €˜222€™ depending on the logic I used. So the result set has the correct values, its after the custom conflict resolver is called where the values is somehow truncated. Has anybody run into this before and what steps can I take to avoid this.
Thank you,

I just discovered that a bigint column in one of my tables is getting it's values truncated when I run a DTS job to copy the data to another database. The DTS job is designed to refresh our test environments from our production database. All the other tables copy fine. This include another table that also contains a bigint column. But this one table consistenly has a problem where 60 or so records are translated from positive number to negative values. The only explaination I came up with was truncation at some point.
Anyone know of a way to fix or work around this?

.......I am running SQL Server 7 SP1 and database is in 6.5 compatability
mode.
I have two fields - both defined as money.
When I divide them, SQL Server truncates the result after the 4th decimal point.
So SQL Server says: 370.45 / 3,391,517.85 = 0.0001
I want to achieve: 370.45 / 3,391,517.85 = 0.00010922837... etc.
The field the result is going into is defined as decimal(20,18)
I've tried using "cast(1stmoneyfield as decimal(20,18)) / cast(2ndmoneyfield as decimal(20,18)) as dividednumber", but SQL Server reports back errors about null values and Arithmetic overflow and terminates.
I'm at a loss as to how to solve the problem. Any suggestions please?
We have an application that uses ASP pages to get data from a SQL 7.0 database. One of the stored procedures that is called brings back a comment field that is a varchar(2000). For some reason, when this SP is called from the ASP page, the field is truncated at 255 characters. If the SP is run in the Query Analyzer, all 2000 characters are brought back (after we reset the default length in QA).
Is there any way for the ASP page to bring back more than 255 characters?

I am currently developing a backend SQL db for an ASP website. I am only learning, so quite new to it all & would appreciate some help with the following;
I currently have a form that updates a recordset in my SQL db. This is working fine, except for the fact that when the form loads and the db tries to write the field value into my text box, e.g. Address: 20 Harbour Drive, the field value is truncated at the space and it writes the address as 20 in the text box.
When I view the detail page, no problems, the recordset was updated, but when I go back to the update page, the record values are truncated again as though the ASP page thinks the space is some kind of delimiter?
The size property of my textbox element is the same as the varchar datatype size in the SQL table.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance, this is driving me nuts.

In t-sql 2012, data is obtained from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 where it is defined as varchar(8). The data is copied to test.dbo.LockCombination.combo where the field is defined as varchar(8). This copies all the data except the last right column.
Basically a value that is '12-34-56' intially from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 ends on in st.dbo.LockCombination.combo looking like
'12-34-5'. In this case the last value of '6' is missing. I have tried to use various string functions to obtain the entire value that should be  '12-34-56' and ends up looking like '12-34-5'.
Here are 2 sqls that I have used and I get the same results:
1.
UPDATE LKC
SET LKC.combo = lockCombo1
FROM [Inputtb] A
JOIN test.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type and A.schoolnumber =
@SchoolNumber
JOIN test.dbo.Locker LKR ON SCH.schoolID = LKR.schoolID AND A.lockerNumber =
[Code] ....
I can not change the definition of the columns since these are production settings.
Thus can you should me modified sql that will end up with the entire value of 8 characters in the [Inputtb].lockCombo1 column?
As the titel suggests I am having quite a strange problem
I have installed an Enotebook on our domain server at work and it uses MSQL express 2005.
When I ask it to automatically connect using window authentication to connect it works on windows XP machines with DomainUSERNAME. However when I try the same thing on Windows vista it tells me the logon failed with "DomainUSERNAM". I change it to SQL Authetifcation and type the same username fully (I have added the user via active directory as a SQL user) then it works
Basically it looks like the windows username is sent from Vista missing the last letter.
I have Googled this a lot and have not really found an answer. Am I mearly being very stupid or is this a known issue. Can anyone give me a suggestion as to why this might happen?.
I have a requirement to implement CDC for 50+ tables to implement incremental data changes warehouse/reporting rather than exporting the whole table data. The largest table is having more than half a billion records.
The warehouse use a daily copy of OLTP db (daily DB refresh). How can I accomplish this. Is there a downside in implementing CDC just for the sake of taking incremental changes on the tables?
Is there any performance impact if we enable CDC on OLTP db?
Can we make use of the CDC tables on the environment we do daily db refresh so that the queries don't hit OLTP database?
What is the best way to implement CDC to take incremental changes for reporting.
is there a step by step paper to get there? here is what i need to consider. I Iwill have many customers that will need their own set of records and access pages "branded for their company" each customer will have many clients. I am hosting this application on a windows 2003 server with SQL 2005 server enterprise.
I am using windows authentication, I have created a username in windows, then i added the windows user in SQL management studio in security, granted "DB Read" and "DB write" and again under the database security tab. still from the web authentication fails. i must be nissing a step or two?
I expect to set up a username for each database as i setup new customers.
Hello,
I am wondering what conversion rules apply, when a string, which contains a number, is saved to a SQL Server 2005 into a column of type decimal.
This is the code I€™m using (C++):
CString cValue = "0.75"
_variant_t vtFieldValue;
vtFieldValue = _variant_t(cValue)
pRecordSet->Fields->Item["MyColumn"]->Value = vtFieldValue;
"pRecordSet" is an ADO recordset. The database column "MyColumn" is of type "decimal(19,10)".
The most important question for me is, if the regional settings of the database server or the regional settings of the client PC are considered during the conversion from the string to the decimal value. For example in standard French regional settings the "." would not be recognized as decimal separator.
I am also wondering if the language of the database instance, in which this data is saved, is considered during this conversion or any other settings of this database instance.
So my general question is: Does anybody know exactly what rules apply during the above mentioned conversion?
Thank you for your help.

Volker
My vendor requires data to be sent in Excel format. Some of my tables have rows over 65,536 so I need to use Excel 2007 (Max of 1,048,576). Right now my data sits in SQL 2000. I am using MS SQL Enterprise Manager 8.0 to prepare the data. Is there some kind of add on or selection I am missing to use DTS to export from SQL to Excel 2007?Thanks in advance.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI think I am definitely thrashing and am not getting anywhere on something I think should be pretty simple to accomplish: I need to pull the total amounts for compartments with different products which are under the same manifest and the same document number conditionally based on if the document types are "Starting" or "Ending" but the values come from the "Adjust" records.
So here is the DDL, sample data, and the ideal return rows
CREATE TABLE #InvLogData
(
Id BIGINT, --is actually an identity column
Manifest_Id BIGINT,
Doc_Num BIGINT,
Doc_Type CHAR(1), -- S = Starting, E = Ending, A = Adjust
Compart_Id TINYINT,
[Code] ....
I have tried a combination of the below statements but I keep coming back to not being able to actually grab the correct rows.
SELECT DISTINCT(column X)
FROM #InvLogData
GROUP BY X
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT X) > 1
One further minor problem: I need to make this a set-based solution. This table grows by a couple hundred thousand rows a week, a co-worker suggested using a <shudder/> cursor to do the work but it would never be performant.
I need to create a function that replaces the data in a column with an 'X' based on the LEN of the data in the column. I created one that does a replacement, but it fills the column based on the max data length, and not the current length of the string or integer. An example of what I'm trying to accomplish.
Original data in a varchar(30) column:
thisisavalue
thisisanothervalue
thisisanothervalueagain
shortval
replaced with
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxx
My current function is replacing the data like this:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I want to export data from SQL Server2005 to an Excel spreadsheet thru "Data Flow Task". I am using OLE DB for SQL Server for the source connection and a Connection To Excel as my destination source. The Excel spreadsheet (2003) exists and has the first row with column names. I don't have any warnings before trying to execute.
The SQL datable fileds are
i) ID - Int
ii) RefID
iii) txtRemarks - nvarchar(MAX)
iv) ddlWaterLevel - nvarchar(50)
While executing the tasks, I got the error
Error: 0xC0202025 at Data Flow Task, Excel Destination [427]: Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.
Error: 0xC004701A at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: component "Excel Destination" (427) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202025.
After analysing I found in the DataFlow --> Excel destination --> Advanced Editor for Excel Destination, the default data type for txtRemarks shows as "Unicode string [DT_WSTR]". But this is supposed to be "Unicode text stream [DT_NTEXT]". Even if I change the data type in the design time, It doesn't accept.
Please do help me out.

Hi all,
I have a column in SQL server which is of type ntext. Selecting the specific column to view it in report builder, an error message appears with the following description:
- Cannot run this report. The grouping expression 'nameofcolumn' returns the datatype binary. The Grouping Expression cannot return binary data.
Report Builder recognises this as if it was an image...
Thanks in advance!
I need to periodically import a (HUGE) table of data from an external data source (not SQL Server) into SQL Server, with the following scenarios:
Some of the records in the external data source may not exist in SQL.Some of the records in the external data source may have a different value at different imports, but this records are identified univocally by the same primary key in the external datasource and in SQL Server.Some of the records in the external data source may be the same in SQL.
Due to the massive volume of the import, I would like to import only the records which are different from what I have in SQL Server (cases 1 and 2 above). In fact case 2 is the most critical.
I thought of making a query with a left outer join between the data in the external data source table (SOURCE) and the data in the SQL Server table (DESTIN). The join is done on the respective primary keys (composed keys of up to 10 columns) and one of the WHERE conditions will be that the value in SOURCE is different from the value in DESTIN.
The result of this query would be exactly what I need to import.
How to do this in SSIS??? I couldn't figure out how to join tables in different data sources yet.
In fact I cannot write a stored procedure to do that, since one of the sources is in a datasources not SQL Server.
I have seen the Lookup transformation in this article http://www.sqlis.com/default.aspx?311 but this is not exacltly what I want to do.
Another possibility is to use the merge join, but due to the sorting I believe its performances would be terrible!
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
I'm in the middle of developing a Database for a hospital that measures its audits, inhouse operations, and finance. What we currently have and do everyday is collect data from a large database that is real time with patient data, progess, infomation, etc and dump it into a data warehouse that runs on TSI/Eclipsys. We run reports using a number of programs and dump it into Excel sheets that have charts, reports, etc. This Database for which I'm developing won't come soley from the TSI/Eclypsys source, but this is the only source thats updated regularly. I don't want to have in sync with TSI/Eclipysys in fear that every day when it updates data may be lost, not read, or worse won't be up date if there is a problem. My question is is it possible to run a query from Sequel Server 2005 that will take that data upon request using the reporing features on Sequel Server 2005. i.e. What if I need to run a report on measure B in department 12 from Jan 1-Feb 1, instead of being in sync, can I just write queries to take that information rather than double the data and take up twice the space and trouble. FYI, these datatypes rarely change in the TSI/Eclipsys data warehouse. This sure was long question and didn't intended it to be . Thanks for listening and hope to hear back.
