Does anyone know if there is a way SQLMail can always send a message using a fixed font like Courrier? I use SQLMail to send out an invoice and even though I format the spacing, the email looks unformatted on some systems.
I am using Exchange 5.5, SQL server 6.5 sp4 and the recipients of the emails could have any email client.
thanks,

I am trying to output data from SQL Server to an email body message with a little formatting (just to make it legible)
Using this SQL statement:
select top 1 'Name', app_first_name+' '+app_last_name [name] ,'Submission Date', submission_date ,'Address', app_address+', '+app_city+', '+app_state+' '+app_zip from vw_bpa_export where app_email = dave@email.com order by submission_date desc
the resulting output displays this in the email body
"Name","Brian Vogler","Submission Date","2008-01-30 07:45:00","Address","6285 Harrow Trace, Norcross, GA 30092 "
but what I want is the text to look more like this:
Name Brian VoglerSubmission Date 2008-01-30 07:45:00Address 6285 Harrow Trace, Norcross, GA 30092
Is there a way to do this in the SQL statement (without HTML tags)?

Hi,
I am saving a couple of paragraphs of text into a varchar(max) field in a SQL database table. But when I try to use display the information again, then all the linefeed and return characters seem to be removed. How do I keep this text formating in the database field?
I am sure that I am missing something simple here, but I can not figure out what. Can someone please help with some advise?
Thanks

What is the best way to parse large amounts of formatted text data
into a table so that it can be retrieved with as much formatting
retained as possible - particularly paragraphs? Will each
paragraph need to be inserted into its own row to be retrieved as a
paragraph?
Hi All,This may seem like a stupid question but is there a way to keep textformatting when you add it to a database? Such as Paragraphs and linebreaks?Any help greatly appreciated.Blaine
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to retain text or paragraph formatting in a SqlServer 2005 Express edition table? If so, how?
I am particularly interested in keeping a linebreak between paragraphs and the only way I can think to do that is to put each paragraph in its own row. But I want some input before I undertake that substantial task.
Thanks for any help provided.
I have a field where the data is stored with RTF. I know SQL Reporting Services cannot display it properly. Is there way to remove the RTF formatting codes through a function to just pull out the text and displya it in the text box?

Hello,
I am having a problem trying to do some conditional formatting on the text color.
This textbox is in the Group Footer so i essentially want change the color to red if the SUM of one field in the group is less than the SUM of another field in the same group.
I am doing this:
=Iif(Sum(Fields!YTDChargeHours)< Sum(Fields!YTDForecast), "Red", "Black")
but i am getting this error:
[rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Color expression for the textbox €˜YTDChargeHours€™ contains an error: Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.
Thanks in advance!

I have the following error when trying to test EMail from SQL.
I have logged onto the server and sent EMail using the SQLServer Service Account and the Profile is correct. This tells me that Outlook is working OK and the Exchange Server is sending OK. However, lookin on TechNet Q274330

Here's the error message.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently set up a SQL 7.0 cluster (active/passive) on a pair of Win2K boxes. I noticed that the SQLServerAgent would refuse to send system alerts to my e-mail account, yet net sent messages worked fine. I know I've set everything up properly, so I paid the $245 to speak with Microsoft.
The answer was found; their response follows:
{redacted}
CAUSE:
============
On a cluster an undocumented stored procedure is called by the Operator to send email and this causes it to fail. SQL Mail is not supported on SQL 7.0 clusters and any features depending on it will also fail.
RESOLUTION:
============
SQL 2000 does support SQL Mail on clusters with MS Office 2000 and up.
In SQL 2000 Books Online do a search for the following topics and include the quotes:
“Using SQL Server Tools with Failover Clustering”
Also you can workaround the problem by using a job that uses xp_sendmail to send the alert instead.
{END}
Now is that lame or what? Of all the functions you would expect to work in a failover cluster, you would think that e-mailing the operator in the event of a failure would be high on the list. Apparently, not so. Their official answer was to upgrade to SQL2000. Anybody care to guess the price on doing a dual CPU dual box cluster upgrade?
Now my question is this: The tech person was right, xp_sendmail does work fine. What I have wanting to do, and have been unable to do, is to write a TRIGGER that would fire whenever an error is logged by the SQL server. I have looked around, but could find no documentation on what table it is that receives error logs.
Does anybody know which table receives error messages? I'm wanting to write a trigger that exec's xp_sendmail so I get error alerts.
Does anyone know the 'trick' in getting sqlmail (sqlserver 7.0) to work with Outlook 2000 on a windows 2000 server machine. I've setup a mail profile on Outlook, but it is not listed in the dropdown menu in the sqlmail properties.
Outlook communicates with my smtp/pop3 mail server - no problem. I can't get sqlmail to interface with outlook. Basically it is telling me that it cannot find ANY profiles on the server.
I created a new MAPI profile on the server, and it seems to work fine with Outlook. I also dropped the previous default MAPI profile.
Now, when I go to the EM SQLAgent Properties, the only MAP profile offered in the SQLMail drop-down is the old, deleted profile. Also, only the old profile comes up with xp_get_MAPI_profiles.
How can I get SQLAgent to recognize that I've set up a new mail profile?
I need to set up SQLMail togheter with Notes, We have SMTP server and profiles but I can´t get it to work. SQL sends the mail but it disappears into the cyberspace.. Someone help me pls...

Hi,
I need help!
SQlmail service starts (SQL server 6.5, Exchange Server 5.5
and Outlook 2000). A mail profile is created which starts the
MSSQLServer and SQLExecutive services.
However, When I tried to send a mail by xp_sendmail, it gave me

Thank you!
I have a problem trying to send email using SQLMail. When I setup a new job under SQL Server Agent I can receive mail okay when a job completes, but when I try to receive mail from a Database Maintenance Plan the following error is reported:
Emailing report to operator 'DBA Group'
[Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)] Error 17903: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]MAPI login failure.
I cannot figure out the problem as mail is getting through using the profile I setup and also when I use outlook and also from SQL Server Agent jobs.
Any ideas!!!!
