How To Store Large Character Data In MS SQL Server ???
Sep 11, 1998I am developing a simple ASP based form, that stores user info in MS SQL server. I have created a table in the SQL server to store the data and defined the body field with this line: `body char(255)`. The problem is that if the user inputs a string longer then 255 characters it gets choped off. How would you suggest solving this problem? Should I use `text` datatype instead?? Any comments are very appreciated !!!
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow To Store Large Chunks For Binary Data Into The DB?
Sep 7, 2006From what I can see, the 'varbinary(max)' data type is not supported, and the 'image' data type is supposed to go away. Is there some other way to store large chunks (10MB to 100MB) of data into an SSEv DB?
If I have to use the 'image' data type to so this, does anyone have a code sample that would let me push an array() of numbers into an 'image' field, and unload an 'image' field into an array()?
TIA

Error Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1 Receives When Call The Assembly From Store Procedure To Create A Text File And To Write Text
Jun 21, 2006Hi,
I want to create a text file and write to text it by calling its assembly from Stored Procedure. Full Detail is given below
I write a code in class to create a text file and write text in it.
1) I creat a class in Visual Basic.Net 2005, whose code is given below:
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class WLog
Public Shared Sub LogToTextFile(ByVal LogName As String, ByVal newMessage As String)
Dim w As StreamWriter = File.AppendText(LogName)
LogIt(newMessage, w)
w.Close()
End Sub
Public Shared Sub LogIt(ByVal logMessage As String, ByVal wr As StreamWriter)
wr.Write(ControlChars.CrLf & "Log Entry:")
wr.WriteLine("(0) {1}", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(), DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString())
wr.WriteLine(" :")
wr.WriteLine(" :{0}", logMessage)
wr.WriteLine("---------------------------")
wr.Flush()
End Sub
Public Shared Sub LotToEventLog(ByVal errorMessage As String)
Dim log As System.Diagnostics.EventLog = New System.Diagnostics.EventLog
log.Source = "My Application"
log.WriteEntry(errorMessage)
End Sub
End Class
2) Make & register its assembly, in SQL Server 2005.
3)Create Stored Procedure as given below:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SP_LogTextFile
(
@LogName nvarchar(255), @NewMessage nvarchar(255)
)
AS EXTERNAL NAME
[asmLog].[WriteLog.WLog].[LogToTextFile]
4) When i execute this stored procedure as
Execute SP_LogTextFile 'C:Test.txt','Message1'
5) Then i got the following error
Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1, Procedure SP_LogTextFile, Line 0
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'SP_LogTextFile':

Large Amount Of Text?
Feb 22, 1999We have created a databse in SQL Server 7 for support issues.
We are having trouble with only one aspect of the databse and that is the body of the supported problem.
The databse is basically a Question/Answer Support database whch house Frequently Asked Questions.
When the user does a search on a specific problem they have a list of matching questions shows on the screen (links).
When the question is clicked on it shows the Questions with the Answer of possible fixes.
Our problem lies in the fact that SQL server is truncating the Answer portion. I have tried different Data Types with maximum lengths with no success it keeps truncating it.
Right now I am on Data Type nvarchar with a length of 4000.
If anyone has any pointers on how to solve this problem all input is appreciated. You can post here to the forum or e-mail me directly at jason@flnet.com
Thank You.

Large Text Column
Aug 14, 2007I'm trying to store a binary data file in my database. I've tried data types image, varchar(max) and text. I don't get error message on loading the data but as soon as the text file exceeds 32,000 bits a query returns an empty data set.
Is this a SSMS display problem and the data is really there? Or is this another one of Microsoft's memory bugs?

Storing And Indexing Very Large Text
Jul 31, 2005Hi!I want to store some really big text in my database (for my articles). The approximate size will be from 500 to 40000 characters. I was thinking of using the database 'text' datatype.I have heard that reading these text fields is slower and decreases the performance. Moreover is it advisable to index this for searching purposes?

How do I input a large text page (notepad) into a SQL column. Or assign a pointer to the data. I've tried to use BOL (writetext) and to no avail, I guess I'm missing something. I'm just using EM and Query analyzer. I thought this should be easy. Image data should work the same way.

DTS: Large Text Fields Truncated

I'm trying to transfer a table from SQL Server 7 database to another SQL server 7 database on

Any ideas?

What Datatype To Use When Inserted Large Amount Of Text
Jun 27, 2005What datatype to use when inserted large amount of Text ??
View 6 Replies View RelatedProblem Inserting Large Amounts Of Text
Aug 12, 2005I am running into a problem inserting large amounts of text into my table. Everything works well when I test with a few simple words but when I try to do a test with larger amounts of text (ie 35,000 characters) the appropriate field is left blank. The Insert still performs (all the other fields recieve their data, but the "Description" field is blank. I have tried this with both "text" and "ntext" datatypes. I am using a stored procedure with input parameters. As I mentioned, the query goes off flawlessly with small amounts of data (eg "Hi there!") but not with the larger amount.I check and the ntext field claims to be able to accept 1073741823 bytes of data. Is there some other thing I should consider with large amounts of text?
View 6 Replies View RelatedCannot Export Large Varchar To Text File
Jun 15, 2001When using DTS (in SQL 7) to export via OLE DB a large varchar to a text file, it clips it at 255 chars.
No other data access drivers seem to work, either. This is lame! I cannot use bcp as a work
around, because i want to use quoted comma-delimited, which it doesn't support, and I
am using query-based export, where the query calls a stored proc, which bcp also doesn't
support.
Are there any new versions of MDAC that fix this? Anyone know a workaround? My current hack fix
is to split my field into 2, but this is a grubby fix that hassles my reciptients.
This is a pretty fundamental limitation to a major product!

Large Arrays, UDFs And The Text Datatype
Jul 23, 2005I have a bunch of SPs that all rely on a UDF that parses a commadelimitted list of numbers into a table. Everything was working fine,but now my application is growing and I'm starting to approach the 8000character limit of the varChar variable used to store the list.I would like to change the UDF only and avoid having to dig through allof my stored procedures. I was hoping to use the text datatype toallow for much larger lists, but I am unable to perform anymanipulations necessary to parse the list into a table. I have triedPATINDEX, but it alone is not enough without the text maniuplations andI don't think the sp_xml_preparedocument can be used in a UDF.Anyone with any thoughts on managing large arrays in t-sql?thanks,Matt Weiner
View 2 Replies View RelatedSQL2K5-PHP CTP - Bug In Sqlsrv_stmt_fetch_array With Large (&&>65535) Text
Oct 24, 2007On SQL2005, we have a table called Document_lie with 2 fields : doc_type (varchar(50)) and doc_Document (text).
Another application is putting base64 encoded text in doc_document.
This code works:
$sql=" Select Top 1 DOC_Type,DOC_Document from Document_lie
where Doc_Compteur =7418;
";
$stmt=sqlsrv_conn_execute($conn,$sql);
if ($stmt) {
sqlsrv_stmt_fetch( $stmt );
$typedocu=sqlsrv_stmt_get_field($stmt,1);
$photostream=sqlsrv_stmt_get_field($stmt,2,SQLSRV_PHPTYPE_STREAM);
$photocod='';
while (!feof($photostream))
{
$photocod.=fread($photostream,8192);
}
$photobin=base64_decode($photocod);
header("Content-type:image/jpeg");
echo $photobin;
}
While this one doesn't:
$sql=" Select Top 1DOC_Type,DOC_Document from Document_lie
where Doc_Compteur =7418;
";
$stmt=sqlsrv_conn_execute($conn,$sql);
if ($stmt){
while ($result=sqlsrv_stmt_fetch_array($stmt, SQLSRV_FETCH_TYPE_ASSOC)){
$photocod=$result['DOC_Document'];
$photobin=base64_decode($result['DOC_Document']);
$typedocu=$result['DOC_Type'];
}
header("Content-type:image/jpeg");
echo $photobin;
}
In fact, if you look at $photocod, you see the problem easily: $photocod gets the good length (in my case 80734 bytes), but only the first 65535 bytes are correct. The rest is filled with garbage. Looks like a pointer problem.
Reading Large Text Files With 2005 CE?
Dec 19, 2007Hi€¦
During my web search looking for a solution I ran across SQL CE 3.5 articles. My questions about SQL CE 3.5 are:
1) Can SQL CE 3.5 handle a 4 €“ 6 GB file
- Read
- Parse (SQL)
2) Can SQL CE 3.5 act as a standalone client that a user can view a large (4-6 GB) text file?
- Will I need a .NET (small) client to read the large (4-6 GB) text file?
More info:
The text file will reside on the machine where the SQL CE 3.5 is installed. There is no pull to get the data.
Thank you (in advance)€¦

SQL 2005 Full-Text Performance On Large Results
May 10, 2006Hello everybody,
I've got a little problem wich i'm trying to solve since 1-2 years and i hoped it would go away with SQL 2005 - but that wasn't the case :(.
Situation:
I've just bought a new Server containing:
SQL 2005
64 Bit Enviroment
4 GB RAM
2x AMD Opteron 2 GHz Prozeccors (Dual Core)
2x RAID Controllers (RAID 1) containing
1.1 System
1.2 Data
2.1 Transaction Logs
I've created a full-text table containing all the search terms i need to search.
Table build:
RecID - int - Primary Key
SrcID - varchar(30)
ArticleID - int - referring to an original table
SearchField - varchar(150) - Containing the search terms
timestamp - timestamp field
Fulltext index:
RecID as Primary Key
SearchField as indexed field - Wordbreaker: Neutral (containing several languages), Accent sensitivity off
Now i've got different tables imported in here resulting in a table size of ~ 13 million rows.
There is no problem with the performance on this catalog if i search a term wich isn't contained in more than 200-300 recordsets - but if i search for a term wich could occur in 200'000 upwards it gets extremely slow.
On the slow query the first records get in after no time, but until the query finished up to 60 seconds pass.
The problem is that i have to sort by a ranking value wich is stored externally - so i need all results to sort them...
current (debugging) query:
SELECT ArticleID FROM fullTextTable AS ft INNER JOIN CONTAINSTABLE(FullTextCatalog,SearchField,'"term*"') AS ftRes ON ftRes.[KEY]=ft.idEntry
Now if i check in the performance monitor:
As soon as i run the query the 'Avg. Disk Read Queue Length' counter on disk D (SQL Data Files) jumps to the top, until the query has finished.
Almost no read/write activity on C: where the Fulltext is stored...
If i rerun the query, after it finished once successfully - it takes place below 1-2 seconds, would be nice to get that result in first place :).
Does anybody know a workaround to this problem?

SQL Server 2008 :: Speed Up Text Search In Large Result Set?
Jul 14, 2015I have a query below which filters detail field in the #TempLogins table. The details field is a text field which contains many types of text strings, some containing urls that have parts like "ResultID=5" which is what is contained in the ResultIDSearch and ResultSetIDSearch fields. The records with entries like "ResultID=5" are the ones I'm trying to filter for.
The problem I have is that the query takes way too long to run. The TempLogin table has around 200 K records and the TempSearch table has around 80 K records.
select * from #TempLogins a where exists
(select 1 from #TempSearch t1 where
a.detail like '%' + t1.ResultIDSearch + '%'
or
a.detail like '%' + t1.ResultSetIDSearch + '%')
