STORED PROC To UPDATE Ntext Field -- PLEASE!

Jul 20, 2005

Hi, I've been reading all sorts of info on the ntext field. I need
this to store xml documents in sql server via a stored proc.

Because of its size, I apparently can not use SET (as in UPDATE)
therefore I'm trying to do an INSERT of the row with this field (after
deleting the old row).

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateXmlWF
(
@varWO varchar(50)
@strWF ntext
@varCust varchar(50)
@varAssy varchar(50)
)
AS

INSERT INTO tblWorkOrders (WorkOrder, Customer, Assy, xmlWF) VALUES
(@varWO, @varCust, @varAssy, @strWF)

I'm using MSDE so I can't tell what's wrong...it just won't save the
proc.

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks, Kathy

How To Optionally Update Field In Stored Proc?

Mar 22, 2008

Hello,,,I need to update table but not all fields in stored proc have to be with value (some of fields will be NULL), so i need to avoid updating any field that his parameter with null value.I need the syntax for (IF) statement to optionally update that field.something like this :CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[MyUpdate]
(
@ID int,
@Field1 nvarchar(50),
@Field2 nvarchar(50)=null,
@Field3 nvarchar(50)=null,
@Field4 nvarchar(50)
)
AS

UPDATE MyTable
SET Field1 = @Field1,
if (@Field2<>null) Field2 = @Field2,
if (@Field2<>null) Field3 = @Field3,
Field4 = @Field4
WHERE ID = @ID
 I saw example before but i can't remember where.
Thank you in advance

Hi All,

I will be doing stress test for my app.

Loading thousands of records to the DB through bulk insert.

I have another table which has the Ntext Value which i will want to copy and duplicate to the other table.

what is the way to do it?

simply said i want to update a record with NULL value from one table with NText field with the value from another table..

DEFINITIVE ANSWER PLEASE -- Can You UPDATE Ntext Datatype Field???

Jul 20, 2005

Hi, I've read conflicting articles on updating an ntext field in acolumn.My ntext field will exceed 8,000 characters (typically twice that size-- but just a text string).One article (I think from MicroSoft) said you could NOT use ntext inan UPDATE statement, but I've seen examples from other people usingit...but don't know if it's related to the size/characters issue.Is this true or not?Thanks very much...Kathy

How Do I Parse Data Stored In Ntext Field

Apr 9, 2008

I have a third party application with a ntext field that I need to parse the data out of. The data looks like this:
<xmlF><FNumber type="int">2421</FNumber><AttachmentPath type="string" /><RequesterId type="int">232</RequesterId><Requester type="string">John Smith</Requester><RequestDate type="DateTime">3/24/2008 11:23:27 AM</RequestDate</xmlF>
The fieldname is Data and the tablename is ProcessData
Again, this looks like xml, but the field type is ntext. I would like to create a view displaying the parsed data in fields. How would I go about parsing the data?
Thanks.

Stored Proc Won't Update From C# .NET Code, But Will Update When Testing On Its Own.

Jul 23, 2006

I'm having a strange problem that I can't figure out. I have an SQL stored procedure that updates a small database table. When testing the Stored Procedure from the Server Explorer, it works fine. However, when I run the C# code that's supposed to use it, the data doesn't get saved. The C# code seems to run correctly and the parameters that are passed to the SP seem to be okay. No exceptions are thrown.
The C# code:
   SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["touristsConnectionString"].ConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("fort_SaveRedirectURL", conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
Label accomIdLabel = (Label)DetailsView1.FindControl("lblID");
int accomId = Convert.ToInt32(accomIdLabel.Text);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@accomId", SqlDbType.Int).Value = accomId;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@path", SqlDbType.VarChar, 250).Value = GeneratePath();
try
{
conn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
finally
{
conn.Close();
}
 The Stored Procedure:
  ALTER PROCEDURE developers.fort_SaveRedirectURL
(
@accomId int,
@path varchar(250)
)
AS
DECLARE
@enabled bit,
@oldpath varchar(250)

/* Ensure that the accommodation has been enabled */
SELECT @enabled = enabled FROM Experimental_Accommodation
WHERE Experimental_Accommodation.id = @accomId

IF (@enabled = 1)
BEGIN
/* Now check if a path already exists */
SELECT @oldpath = oldpath FROM Experimental_Adpages_Redirect
WHERE Experimental_Adpages_Redirect.accom_id = @accomId

IF @oldpath IS NULL
BEGIN
/* If Path already exists then we should keep the existing URL */
/* Otherwise, we need to insert a new one */
INSERT INTO Experimental_Adpages_Redirect
(oldpath, accom_id)
VALUES (@path,@accomId)
END
END
RETURN

HELP On Construct Of Update Stored Proc. .. THANKS!!!

Nov 6, 1998

Referencing the sample stored procedure
below that updates table 'this_table' containing
3 INT columns: 'key', 'col2', 'col3'.

How do I revise the stored procedure so that *** I do not
have to specify ALL the columns *** to update just one column?

e.g. if I want to update @col3 to 9 (exec sp_update_table, @col3 = 9),
how can I set col2 to its existing value?

create proc sp_update_table
@key int,

Stored Proc Update Optional Parameters

Dec 3, 2003

I have a stored procedure that updates about a dozen rows.

I have some overloaded functions that I should update different combinations of the rows - 1 function might update 3 rows, another 7 rows.

Do I have to write a stored procedure for each function or I can I handle it in the Stored Procedure. I realise I can have default values but I the default values could overwrite actual data if the values are not supplied but have been previously written.

Many thanks for any guidance.

UPDATE Stored Proc -- Updated Over All Of My Records

Jan 31, 2005

I wrote a stored proc to be implemented in a datagrid. I went and used it on a record to update some information and it updated THE WHOLE DATABASE WITH THAT ONE RECORD..

IF anyone could shead some light on what I'm doing wrong that would be great.

Here is the syntax for my stored proc.



CREATE PROC updateResults2
@id int, @address1 nvarchar (50), @address2 nvarchar (50), @CITY nvarchar (33), @ST nvarchar (10), @ZIP_OUT nvarchar (5), @ZIP4_OUT nvarchar (4), @home_phone nvarchar (22), @NEWPhone nvarchar (20)
AS
UPDATE Results
SET address1 = @address1,
address2 = @address2,
CITY = @CITY,
ST = @ST,
ZIP_OUT = @ZIP_OUT,
ZIP4_OUT = @ZIP4_OUT,
home_phone = @home_phone,
NEWPhone = @NEWPhone


GO



As said previously it ran but it updated the WHOLE DATABASE with the same change (WHICH I DIDNT WANT IT TO DO)!!

Thanks in advance.

Update Stored Proc Super Slow

Nov 5, 2006

we just moved a database from a shared SQL 2000 server to SQLExpress on a VPS server. Every thing seems to work great, really no performance loss at all, except for one stored proc that is giving us problems. It's function is to update a history table, and then update the production table. On the old server, it would take less than a second to run this, now it takes anywhere from 45 seconds to 1 minute or it times out.

Update An Analysis Services Cube From Stored Proc?

Jul 1, 2004

I'd like to be able to update an Analysis Services cube through a stored proc.

Currently I can:
- Make a DTS package that updates the cube
- run xp_cmdshell which runs dtsrun which runs the DTS package.

That is messy, easily broken, and hard to get good error info when an error occurs. Is there a better route?

Index In Calculated Field From A Ntext Field

Nov 8, 2005

For some reasons I have to use a ntext field for both small strings like "10" and large binalry files.

I need to sort the field to some extend to present the small strings on a sorted nice way - answers to " What country are you from" etc.

To trick the sorting I use a calculated field:

ORDER BY RSort - where Rsort is:

convert(varchar(4), RD.response) as RSort

It works but put a high load on the SQL server when the number of responses increases.

I though of making a non clustered index based on the calculated field, but is not sure that it will work as intended.

What do I do. The last thing would be to change the ntext to vchar(3800) or something like that. :confused:

Can You Trace Into A Stored Proc? Also Does RAISERROR Terminate The Stored Proc Execution.

Feb 13, 2008

I am working with a large application and am trying to track down a bug. I believe an error that occurs in the stored procedure isbubbling back up to the application and is causing the application not to run. Don't ask why, but we do not have some of the sourcecode that was used to build the application, so I am not able to trace into the code.
So basically I want to examine the stored procedure. If I run the stored procedure through Query Analyzer, I get the following error message:
Msg 2758, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GetPortalSettings, Line 74RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 60002 in sysmessages.
(1 row(s) affected)
(1 row(s) affected)
I don't know if the error message is sufficient enough to cause the application from not running? Does anyone know? If the RAISERROR occursmdiway through the stored procedure, does the stored procedure terminate execution?
Also, Is there a way to trace into a stored procedure through Query Analyzer?
-------------------------------------------As a side note, below is a small portion of my stored proc where the error is being raised:
SELECT  @PortalPermissionValue = isnull(max(PermissionValue),0)FROM Permission, PermissionType, #GroupsWHERE Permission.ResourceId = @PortalIdAND  Permission.PartyId = #Groups.PartyIdAND Permission.PermissionTypeId = PermissionType.PermissionTypeId
IF @PortalPermissionValue = 0BEGIN RAISERROR (60002, 16, 1) return -3END

NText Field In SQL??

Jan 15, 2004

Hello All,

Maybe a stupid question but I'm new to the db admin work so please bear with me.

I've imported an Access db into SQL, in the Access db the field type was 'memo' to accomodate the large amount of text (on avg ruffly 4100 chars. with spaces). Now in SQL the field in the table I have set up as an ntext field, which I understood to be equivalent to a memo field in Access.

My problem is when saving data to the field the first time it saves all the data correctly with the exception of the field in question. The data in the field is '<LongText>', now when I try to update the data in the table I get a 'Data Truncated' error message and no update takes place throughout the table.

After testing this and trying different things, I've found that if I shorten this one field and try to save to the db I still get the 'Data Truncated' error message. If I shorten the data in the field AND delete the record from the SQL table then it will save just fine from there on out (which won't work for the reports).

I'm not sure what I'm missing here to get this to work the way it did in Access.

Parsing An Ntext Field

Jan 29, 2008



I'm trying to parse an ntext field that in my SQL View contains an invoice comment in order to be able to group on parts of the comment. I have two problems--one, the syntax to do this, and two, the best way to deal with the parts that I want.

The comment is like: "standard text ABCDE : $99.99" but can have multiple "ABCDE"s, e.g. "standard text ABCDE FGH IJKL $999.99" and I found some that had duplicates like "standard text standard text...".
I want to be able to report in SSRS 2005 by grouping the "ABCDE", "FGH", "IJKL" items.

Any ideas? Please be specific as I'm still learning.

Stored Procedure To Update A Display Order Field.

Dec 20, 2006

I am creating an app that allows the user to change the order of the list by changing a value in a displayOrder field. I'd love a button for move up /move down move bottom/move top and then pass that parameter to a stored procedure and it would renumber all the items in the list.
Example
ItemID  description   DisplayOrder  Action0           item 1           0                     Moveup/move down1           item 2           1                     Moveup/move down2           item 3           2                     Moveup/move down
So clicking on move up on item 2 would pass and itemID, Action and perhaps a list id to a stored proc and it would renumber the list. I'm assuming it would be done with a loop but I've never tried that.. suggestions?
Thanks - Mark

Field Too Small; Cannot Use Text Or NText; Ugh, Little Help.

Sep 9, 2006

My Stored Proc runs through a loop and concats the contents of each field into one big nvarchar. Procedure works fine on a smaller scale but now it is being implemented on a very large table and the results of the sequel overflow the nvarchar limits. I looked into using text and ntext but both cannot be declared locally. Does anyone know how I can work aroudn this limitation?

Summary:The problem is that the temporary variable I am using (nvarchar) is too small to contain the robust size that the SQL is concating into it. The final field it winds up in is a text field and will be able to handle the amount of data, its just getting the data there is the issue..... Your thoughts please....

It updates the data, however only puts the first 64,999 characters into the field. The datatype is ntext. From what I understand, ntext datatype can hold much more than 65,000 characters. Am I right in this? The data I'm putting into the field is html tags/text. I've tried several different data sets. I'm updating the data using Coldfusion/SQL commands.

Here is my SQL syntax:

UPDATE htmltest
SET html_offline = '#form.html#'
WHERE htmlid = #form.htmlid#

Inserting Values Into SQL CE 3.5 Ntext Field Is Changing All Rows...

Apr 25, 2008



Has anyone seen this issue before? We are running a SQL CE 3.5 database on a windows desktop. A couple of our tables have ntext fields. When we do an insert the statement updates the value for all rows, not just the one that was added. I can easily repro this with some of the online samples too. Try the following:


SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection(_sConn);

conn.Open();

SqlCeCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();

cmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE BlobTable(name nvarchar(128), blob ntext);";

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO BlobTable(name, blob) VALUES (@name, @blob);";

SqlCeParameter paramName = cmd.Parameters.Add("name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128);

SqlCeParameter paramBlob = cmd.Parameters.Add("blob", SqlDbType.NText);

paramName.Value = "Name1";

paramBlob.Value = "Name1 Memo";

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();


cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO BlobTable(name, blob) VALUES (@name, @blob);";

SqlCeParameter paramName = cmd.Parameters.Add("name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128);

SqlCeParameter paramBlob = cmd.Parameters.Add("blob", SqlDbType.NText);

paramName.Value = "Name2";

paramBlob.Value = "Name2 Memo";

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();



After the second execution the blob column in both rows will have the value 'Name2 Memo'.

This is obviously a huge problem for us and would appreciate it if someone can explain what is happening. Seems like a bug but would like to be certain before I go the support route.
