I have a need to pull information from an Oracle 9.2.1 database. It is
storing UTF-8 characters in a varchar2(33) field. I need to be able to pull
these values out and put them in a SQL Server 2000 version of the table with
the UTF-8 characters intact.
Anyone know how to do this...efficiently? I've tried DTS and the high end
UTF-8 characters get lost in the copy.
I'm trying to make a site work for japanese characters. It works fineexcept for the alerts in javascript.The characters are stored in unicode, as this;'コミック全巻配'Those unicode characters are translated by the browser, but not in thealert.Am I storing it correct in the db (コ)? Or should I store thejapanese characters instead of the unicode?Thanks in advance!
I am trying to store the content (body) of an email message that I want to create in a column SQL 2000. I need to know how I can store the special characters (carriage returns, bullets, etc) so that when I select them from the database to reform the email the correct formatting appears.
I want to store japanese characters in one of my database tables. I copied some data including japanese characters from an excel sheet and pasted it to the table. that works fine. The characters are also nicely displayed in my web application.
But I am unable to type in new characters to the table. When trying to do so, even the windows language bar does not allow me to write japanese characters!
I changed the collation of the database from Latin1_General_CI_AS to Japanese_90_CI_AS_KS_WS. I also played with the collation settings of a single column in the table, setting it to different Japanese Windows Collations. The values in the column are stored as NVARCHAR.
The strange thing is: When I insert a new table to the database then I can enter japanese characters without modifications, the table having the same properties as the one in question (at least as far as I can see).
I am stuck here, does anybody have a hint how I can solve this issue?
Additional question: Which collation should I take?
I was wondering does anybody have advice for storing Russian in a column in either 2000 or 2005. Example:
create table Russian ( Word varchar(100), Meaning varchar(500), Russian varchar(500) COLLATE Cyrillic_General_CI_AS_KS not null, English varchar(1000) )
insert into Russian ( Word, Meaning, Russian, English ) values ( 'Thank You', 'Thank you', 'Ñ?паÑ?бо', 'spice e ba' ) What I get is Thank You Thank you ?????? spice E bo How can I store 'Ñ?паÑ?бо' and get this value to display, and not ??????
Hello there,I just want to ask if storing data in dbase is much better than storing it in the file system? Because for one, i am currenlty developing my thesis which uploads a blob.doc file to a web server (currently i'm using the localhost of ASP.NET) then retrieves it from the local hostAlso i want to know if im right at this, the localhost of ASP.NET is the same as the one of a natural web server on the net? Because i'm just thinking of uploading and downloading the files from a web server. Although our thesis defense didn't require us to really upload it on the net, we were advised to use a localhost on our PC's. I'll be just using my local server Is it ok to just use a web server for storing files than a database?
In my application I must store over 16000 character in a sql table field . When I split into more than 1 field it gives "unclosed quotation mark" message. How can I store over 16000 characters to sql table field (only one field) with language specific characters?
Hi everybody, I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?
I'm very new to SQL Server having previously worked with Oracle 10g for the last couple of years.
Anyway, in Oracle there is a view called V$SQL that provides information about SQL that is or has recently been executed. I'm trying to find a similar sort of functionality in SQL Server.
Basically, what I'd like to do is list all of the SQL statements that are running at a given moment. Or even better would be a way of listing all statements that have run in the last 10 minutes.
I just installed SQL Server on my 2003 box. Up till now I've been using MS Access for all my database needs. When I wanted to work on fields in a table, all I had to do was open Access and there you go. How do I view and modify Fields in SQL?
Is it possible to view the transaction log to identify events run against a database. I know that I could create a trace file to log events. But what I really want to know is whether there is any way to actually view the live .ldf transaction log file and make sense of it.
It is possible to do something similar in Informix.
How can I view the transaction log for a particular database. We are trying to track down when a delete occurred and wanted to look there to find it, unless there is a better place to look.
Holy MOLY I've been banging my head up against the wall on this matter for months now. I have two databases and I need to be able to see the tables from different different databases. Usually I create a view like this
LicensingActions.dbo.License_Suspensions
But it wasnt working kept telling me that the License_Suspensions table didnt exsist and at the time the name was in all caps. So I decided to change the name, and low and BEHOLD IT WORKS. The funny was that I wasnt having that problem any of the other tables just that one. Well live and learn. Just thought I'd share that with you guys
I just got some great code from this site for viewing constraints, but I can't find the equivalent for indexes (and I couldn't modify the constraint sql), any suggestions?
why can't i see SQL server 2005 the same way i see Visual Basic 2005 Express edition. i'm able to see VB by going under the all Programs menu and select it, when i try to find SQL 2005, i see configuration tools and some submenu of configuration tools. is that the way it is? if not, how do i get SQL 2005 to open up like VB so i can play with it. Also, at home i do not have a server, do i have to have a home server to play with SQL
I am trying to view a "View" that is in one of my databases, and I am having a problem seeing the scripting that is inside of it. In sql2000 all I needed to do to view a "View" is double click on it. If I double click on a "View" in sql2005 it will open more folders showing the layout, but I want to see the scripting. If I right click on it and then click open view, sql2005 returns the values that the view would bring across. Does anybody know how to view the scripting of a "View" for sql2005?
Also if I select Modify, sql2005 returns scripting but it does not look right.
I would like to know the best way to view Package Logs that are being stored in SQL Server? Right now I select out of sysdtslog90 to see what the log file has. I would like to know if there is a way like SQL 2000 where there is a drop down for the date and you could view the entire package data.
I have a linked table in Access to my SQL 7 database. But one field who's values are either 0 or 1 now show up as 0 or -1 when I view the linked table in Access?
I would like to be able to get a listing of the object permissions for a particular group in a database. I can't find a procedure for doing this. I know I must be overlooking an obvious solution. Does anyone have any suggestions for doing this? Thanks.
It was possible to read the transaction log on SQL 6.5 with DBCC LOG and find out what was going on. Is there any way to do this in SQL 7.0/2000 or do you now have to rely on SQL Profiler? I have noticed that SQLProbe has a log viewer in it and would like to know how they did it.
I'm on a Dev database (full copy). In EM (that is running on the Dev server) I run a view that I used to build the list of rows to be updated.
SQL 2000 Std SP3 on Win 2000 Server.
When I cut-n-Pasted the clause to my "Update" statement in Query Analyser and try to run it, to my surprised, it got hung up.
I looked in EM to see Locks, and to my surprise my EM View Display is blocking the Update! So; I press "Cancel" on my EM View display and, whammo, the update goes.
I tested and it's consistant and does not matter what column I'm updating.
Is this normal behaviour for EM?
EDIT: I tried the exact same scenerio, in the exact same EM and QA screens, but this time remoting over to the Production box (since it's midnight). The blocking did not occur. Weird!
How to view the errors occured during the job execution (than viewing the Job history).Is there any files available to refer the errors?. Thanks in advance.
