SqlException Inserting NULL Into A Varbinary(MAX) Column.
Jul 12, 2007
I get the following error when my insert has a DBNull value for a column of type varbinary(MAX). "Implicit conversion from data type nvarchar to varbinary(max) is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query." In my opinion, the .NET SqlDataAdapter is attempting to convert the null value to a nvarchar. Is it possible to insert a null value in varbinary(max)? I didn't have this problem with the image datatype. Is this a bug or is there a work around to this problem?
Any help would be appreciated.

I need to put .doc data into a varbinary column for full text searching. I have created the db and columns but am unsure as to how to insert the varbinary data. I have found some discussions about inserting images but nothing explicitly on .doc files. Can anyone suggest resources or sample code?

Hello,
I'm working on a website that allows users to upload small JPEG files. I followed the article at http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/120606-1.aspx. On the webpage I'm using a formview control to insert new records in the database. As suggested in the article I removed the "type='object'" from the insert parameters for the image column. The data is saved by using a sqldatasource with stored procedures. The image column is of type varbinary(max) and allows null values. Everythings works fine as long as the user uploads an image. The data is saved correctly and on another page the image can be viewed. However if the user does not upload a picture and tries to save the new record the following error is thrown:
�Implicit conversion from data type nvarchar to varbinary(max) is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.�
In the formviews iteminserting event I have the following code: Dim imageBytes(fileupload1.PostedFile.InputStream.Length) As Byte fileupload1.PostedFile.InputStream.Read(imageBytes, 0, imageBytes.Length) e.Values("Image") = imageBytes What code should I use in case the fileupload1 has no file? I tried something like: e.values("Image") = dbnull.value But that doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Hello,
I'm trying to insert a string expression into a varbinary field. I've tried it several ways, but the data does not seem to get inserted.
I map DT_STR field ("T") with varbinary field in destination table and the package executes properly, but when I see the data that it has been loaded I only see empty values (0x).
I have also tried other approaches, like converting to DT_BYTES during SSIS flow, but I always get the same result.
Any idea of how to achieve this?

I'm trying to return all the rooms that are in a specific area being selected in a ComboBox and I don't want any rooms that have no MacNo. I would have thought this would do it but they Visual Studio throws me a SqlException "Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression."
String dbsql = "SELECT a.RoomID " +
" , a.Room " +
" FROM tblRdrRm a " +
" WHERE a.RoomID = (SELECT RoomID " +
" FROM tblRdrInfo r " +
" WHERE r.AreaID = '" + reaid + "' " +
" AND r.MacNo IS NOT NULL ) " +
" AND a.AreaID = '" + reaid + "' " +
" UNION " +
"SELECT b.RoomID " +
" , b.Room " +

Hi All,
I have a form (asp website with the default.aspx and default.aspx.cs) which I use to connect to the SQL Server 2005 database and insert, update,get and delete data to and from it. In the table I have a column called Picture to insert a photo (usually bmp files) which I declared as a varbinary(max). ID is the primary key and is an int (i tried it to be numeric & varchar).
I am trying to insert data into the table using a form with this syntax:
SqlConnection enter_conn = new SqlConnection("user id=;" +
"password=;server=servername;" +
"Trusted_Connection=yes;" +
"database=Member Profiles; " +
"connection timeout=30");
enter_conn.Open();
string insertSql = "Insert dbo.Details(ID,Last_Name,First_Name,Middle_Initial,Project, Organization,Manager,Current_Skills,Biography,Hobbies, Picture) Select 1001, 'ABC','XYZ','R',' Website Development','ACT',LKM','ASP.Net, C#.Net, SQL Server 2005, SharePoint, Java, ',' developing the new website for ACT using SharePoint and SQL Server 2005', ' Singing, Listening to Music, Dancing, Cooking, Swimming', BulkColumn from Openrowset( Bulk 'C:\photos\rose.bmp', Single_Blob) as Picture";
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand(insertSql, enter_conn);
int i = myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
I have no data in the table and am doing the first insert. Though the data gets inserted I am getting this exception:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Details'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Details'. The statement has been terminated. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at _Default.Enter_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:Documents and SettingskrkondaXMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesMember ProfilesDefault.aspx.cs:line 82
Can someone please suggest anything???? I appreciate a quick response please!!!!

ASP.NET application, MS SQL DB, and a table with a timestamp(8) column.
Error:
Cannot insert a non-null value into a timestamp column. Use INSERT with a column list or with a default of NULL for the timestamp column.
I'm using an SQLDataAdapter and typed DataSet, inserting a row into the dataset, and calling Update() to send changes to the DB.
The thing that baffles me about receiving this error, is that the DB column can be null and I get this error wheter I attempt to insert NULL or a valid byte array into the column.
(No - I am not trying to insert a datetime into the column.)
The error just doesn't seem too descriptive of the problem I'm having, and I'm quite confused.
All help greatly appreciated!

what is the best way of comparing image/varbinary and nullable column in sql server?
this is what i do to find out the different in image column in 2 tables sharing the same structure:
Select *
From TblA s
Left Join TblB c On
s.Id = c.Id And Coalesce(Convert(VARBINARY(MAX), c.Image),'') <> Coalesce(Convert(VARBINARY(MAX), s.Image),'')
Where c.Id IS NULL
alternatively, i was thinking to compare the column with the size, but worry about the accuracy:
Select *
From TblA s
Left Join TblB c On
s.Id = c.Id And ISNULL(Datalength(c.Image),0) <> ISNULL(Datalength(s.Image),0) Where c.Id IS NULL
any suggestion/advise will be appreciated ~

Hi,
I have a table with one of its column VARBINARY(MAX).
I want to make sure that the values in this VARBINARY(MAX) column is unique.
SQL Server doesn;t allow to create Unique Constraint over VARBINARY fields - whats the best workaround for ensuring uniqueness on VARBINARY columns.
Thanks,

Hi, I was wondering if any SQL Server gurus out there could help me...I
have a table which contains text resources for my application. The text
resources are multi-lingual so I've read that if I add a html language
indicator meta tag e.g.<META NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="ES">and
store the text in a varbinary column with a supporting Document Type
column containing ".html" of varchar(5) then the full text index
service should be intelligent about the language word breakers it
applies when indexing the text. (I hope this is correct technique for
best multi-lingual support in a single table?)However, when I come to query this data the results always return 0 rows (no errors are encountered). e.g.DECLARE @SearchWord nvarchar(256)SET @SearchWord = 'search' -- Yes, this word is definitely present in my resources.SELECT * FROM Resource WHERE CONTAINS(Document, @SearchWord)I'm a little puzzled as Full Text search is working fine on another table that employs an nvarchar column.Any pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,Gavin.

I am simply trying to use SQLCommand in .net to insert a record into a SQL Server 2005 table. There are 2 fields being pulled from a user input for that could have no values selected. In this case I want to insert a null value into the record. I get an error that Null is no longer supported and that I should use System.DBNull, but that can't be used as an expression.
How do I do this?
Thank you in advance.

Folks, this isn't exactly a 'Getting Started' question, but I couldn't find a more appropriate Application Development forum.
I'm porting an open source PHP application (http://sourceforge.net/projects/gallery) to use SQL Server as a backend. One of Gallery's unit test scripts tests the ability to insert a string containing a NULL character ( ). It's OK if the string is truncated during insertion, just so long as everything before the is there.
The string being inserted looks like:
$testString = "The NULL character should be escaped !";
(Note the between "escaped " and " !")
The error that the Gallery test script is getting is:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'The NULL character should be escaped '.] in EXECUTE("INSERT INTO g2_PluginParameterMap (g_pluginType, g_pluginId, g_itemId, g_parameterName, g_parameterValue) VALUES ('module','unitTestModule',1,'test19476','The NULL character should be escaped !')")
It looks like SQL Server is complaining about the syntax. I've written a much simpler test script in the hopes of reproducing the problem, but I don't know if what I'm now hitting is the same problem or a different one.
My simple script is:
<?php
$localhost = exec("hostname");
$database = "gallery2";
$uid = "g2user";
$pwd = "g2pwd";
$connectString = "Host=PROVIDER=MSDASQL;DRIVER={SQL Server};";
$connectString .= "SERVER=$localhost\sqlexpress;";
$connectString .= "DATABASE=$database;";
$connectString .= "UID=$uid;PWD=$pwd";
$sqlTableDrop = "drop table ljmtemp";
$sqlTableCreate = "create table ljmtemp (col1 nvarchar(100))";
$sqlTableQuery = "select len(col1) from ljmtemp";
// Connect to the db
$db = new COM("ADODB.Connection") or die("Cannot start ADO");
$db->open($connectString);
// Drop & recreate the table
$db->Execute ($sqlTableDrop);
$db->Execute ($sqlTableCreate);
// Insert the test data
//$testString = "The NULL character should be escaped !";
$testString = "This is a test string.";
$res = $db->Execute("insert into ljmtemp (col1) values ('$testString')");
if (!$res) die ("INSERT failed");
// Disconnect from the db
$db->Close();
?>
And it results in:
C:MyServer>php testMsSqlInsertNull.php
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
Description: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unclosed quotation mark after the character string 'The NULL character should be escaped '.' in C:MyServer estMsSqlInsertNull.php:27
Stack trace:
#0 C:MyServer estMsSqlInsertNull.php(27): com->Execute('insert into ljm...')
#1 {main}
thrown in C:MyServer estMsSqlInsertNull.php on line 27
I'm not sure if this is the same problem as Gallery is reporting or another one.
It looks like somebody is treating the as a string terminator, but when i double the backslash the literal ' ' is inserted into the database.
How can I get SQL Server to insert at least everything up to the ?
Hopefully once I have my simple script working I'll be able to figure out what's wrong in the Gallery test.
Thanks.

Hi, I was wondering if any SQL Server gurus out there could help me...I have a table I'm trying to apply a full text catalog to, however no results are ever returned due to the text column being cataloged being of varbinary(max) that's being populated from a converted nvarchar(max) value - I've narrowed it down to this specifically, populating with non nvarchar text seems to work fine.To re-create the problem quickly...If I populate the column viaCONVERT(varbinary(max), 'test text')then there is no problem, I get results as expected.However if I populate the column viaCONVERT(varbinary(max), CAST('test text' as nvarchar(max)))no results are ever returned.Is this a bug with SQL Server 2005 Full Text Indexing? I'm happily creating full text catalogs when an nvarchar is not getting converted into a varbinary.I'm setting the Document Type column to '.html' (I've tried changing this to '.txt' in case it was a fault with the html ifilter but the problem persists so I believe I can rule this out).The reason I need to convert an nvarchar to varbinary is that the table holds multi-lingual text and I'm adding a html meta tag <META NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="ES"> to the beginning in order for the full text indexing word breaker to select the correct language to catalog the text with. The aim being to provide more relevant searches in users native languages (I've read a few articles that describe this technique, but it's the first time I've tried to apply it).Any pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,Gavin.

I have a datetime field in a database which I am programmatically inserting values into. The field can be null or not null. However, I am having problems inserting NULL as part of my SQLCommand.
The value is pulled from a text box (linked to a calendar extender) and when I select a value it is being inserted fine. If I just leave the box blank though, I want the field to be set to NULL. I have tried adding in ,DBNULL.Value, as part of my VALUES(…) string, but this throws an exception. I Have tried just inserting ‘’ but that also throws an exception (“The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value�), so I don’t know how I can insert this value when the field is blank?
Can anyone shed some light please? Thanks

Hi,
We are using an SQL Server database and seem to be having some problems with inserting null values into numeric fields. The field is set to accept nulls, but when we try and write a record into the database and that field is null, the application craps out on us. Are there any issues that we should be aware of when inserting null values into numeric fields? What might the problem be? Thanks.

When the first TrackCodeid is NULL
all remaining NULL TrackCodeid is entered as null in the database table
but if the first/prev trackcodeID is not NULL then following null trackCODEID is populated with the prev trackcodeID and not as null in database
<TrackCodeId>ABCDEFG</TrackCodeId>
All Null TrackCOdeID is populated as ABCDEFG
if we remove ABCDEFG and then bulkload all null values are populated
if a null trackCODEID is to be inserted the prev trackCODEID must be null and must not contain any value

Hi,
I have a flat file whose data looks like this:
"Opening Balance", Acct1234, 1001.01
"Closing Balance", Acct1234, 1001.01
In my script component for "Opening Balance", I set my output columns like this:
Row.AccountNumber = CDate(rowValues(1)
Row.OpeningBalance = CDec(rowValues(2))
Row.ClosingBalance = Nothing
Because I don't have a value for ClosingBalance in this row, I set ClosingBalance = Nothing.
And for "Closing Balance", I set my output columns like this, because there's no value for OpeningBalance.
Row.AccountNumber = CDate(rowValues(1)
Row.OpeningBalance = Nothing
Row.ClosingBalance = Nothing
Then, in my column mappings I map OpeningBalance = OpeningBalance and ClosingBalance = ClosingBalance.
The idea being that if there's no value, then it should be set to NULL. However, in my table, I see that instead of NULLs, there's 0.00000. Which is not what I want to see.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks

I've just noticed some strange behavior that seems like a bug to me.
It's much easier to follow an example of it that to outright explain it, so here goes.
I have a table defined with a NOT NULL constraint on a column and a default clause:
-- DROP TABLE TestTable
CREATE TABLE TestTable ( TestField0 varchar(10), TestField1 varchar(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT ('a') )
I have a view defined on the table, in this example case, the view just mirrors the table one to one:
-- DROP VIEW TestView
CREATE VIEW TestView as SELECT TestField0, TestField1 FROM TestTable
So far so good, if I run this statement, it works as I would expect and inserts the value and the default goes into the other field:
INSERT INTO TestView (TestField0) SELECT 'test'
Now... If I add an INSTEAD OF trigger to the view, and have it perform the insert for me, I get an error with the same insert stmt:
-- DROP TRIGGER TestTrigger
CREATE TRIGGER TestTrigger ON TestView
INSTEAD OF INSERT AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO TestTable (TestField0, TestField1)
SELECT TestField0, COALESCE(TestField1, 'X')
FROM inserted
END
Notice the trigger will ensure that a null value cannot be inserted into TestField1. If I run this insert stmt though I get an error:
INSERT INTO TestView (TestField0) SELECT 'test'
Server: Msg 233, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
The column 'TestField1' in table 'TestView' cannot be null.
Am I missing something or is this a bug?
Thanks

I have written up a grid consisting of properties and units.The way it works is we have properties, and within properties there are units. They are two seperate tables.Some properties do not have any units so in the unit reference (UN_UREF) column for those records which do not have units and are NULL I would like to insert the text 'NO UNIT'.Please see below for my SQL for the grid which works fine.
create or replace view VWC_PROPMKUNIT_TEST AS ( SELECT
PR_SNAM, PR_NAME, PR_ADD1, PR_ADD2, PR_ADD3, PR_ADD4, PR_ADD5, PR_ADD6,
PR_POST, PR_OWN, UN_UREF, UN_NAME, UN_GFA
FROM PROP
LEFT JOIN UNIT
ON PR_SNAM=UN_BREF);
All I need to do now is insert 'NO UNIT' within the Unit Reference column where it is NULL.

I am getting this error: "Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OrderID', table 'outman.outman.Contact'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails." -- But my value is not null. I did a response.write on it and it show the value. Of course, it would be nice if I could do a breakpoint but that doesn't seem to be working. I'll attach a couple of images below of my code, the error, and the breakpoint error.
