I'm having an odd problem with some SQL CE statements I'm trying to use.
SELECT [PK Product ID] FROM [tblProduct Header] WHERE ([Description] = 'World''s Greatest 3D Mug - 18th Birthday')
Gives me the error message:
Major Error 0x8007007A, Minor Error 0
> SELECT [PK Product ID] FROM [tblProduct Header] WHERE ([Description] = 'World''s Greatest 3D Mug - 18th Birthday')
The data area passed to a system call is too small.
But this query does not:
SELECT [PK Product ID] FROM [tblProduct Header] WHERE ([Description] = 'Worlds Greatest 3D Mug - 18th Birthday')
and nor does this:
SELECT [PK Product ID] FROM [tblProduct Header] WHERE ([Description] = 'World''s Greatest 3D Mug 18th Birthday')
It's as though SQL CE doesn't like a combination of single quotes and hyphens in the criteria. If I remove the quote, it works, if I put the quote back in and remove the hypen it works. The data I'm trying to look up is:
World's Greatest 3D Mug - 18th Birthday
So I really need to be able to look for text that contains both quotes and hyphens.

I have SQL 2000 Server that had a database called ABC and it has been moved to another server on 5-15-2007 I kept ABC database in Read_only mode for few days (just in case) on old server and finally dropped it on 5-20-2007 and I think I forgot to drop the associated logins. I started seeing login failure for user 'xyz' in error logs When I first noticed the login failure error in SQL Server log for login xyz, I deleted xyz login but it did not stop the errors.
I have been trying from then and no luck in identifying the cause/ resolving this issue. I have ran SQL profiler trace and caught the user hostnames, NTusername in few cases and Application Name and contacted the Application owner & user (who are in the trace) to stop windows service/ schedule jobs..anything that is pointing to old server but the bad luck is they are not aware of anything running or pointing to old server. The worst part is the user whose hostnames are shown in the trace have never used ABC database and do not have any idea.
Here is what I found in the profiler trace: TextData LoginName NTUserName HostName ApplicationName Login failed for user 'xyz' xyz AB00007 WAB000007 Microsoft (r) Windows Script Host
Today I have created the xyz login in the server and assigned model database with reader permission to see if log some different error but nothing new (the same login failure error) Finally, I had no solution other than restoring the ABC database back to my old server and set it in to Read_Only mode to stop these errors and Now I see the login 'xyz' firing the query against the database
* Any hint or pointers why this is happening and any possible solution on this?
I recently updated the datatype of a sproc parameter from bit to tinyint. When I executed the sproc with the updated parameters the sproc appeared to succeed and returned "1 row(s) affected" in the console. However, the update triggered by the sproc did not actually work.
The table column was a bit which only allows 0 or 1 and the sproc was passing a value of 2 so the table was rejecting this value. However, the sproc did not return an error and appeared to return success. So is there a way to configure the database or sproc to return an error message when this type of error occurs?
I have a parent package that calls child packages inside a For Each container. When I debug/run the parent package (from VS), I get the following error message: Warning: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (3) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
It appears to be failing while executing the child package. However, the logs (via the "progress" tab) for both the parent package and the child package show no errors other than the one listed above (and that shows in the parent package log). The child package appears to validate completely without error (all components are green and no error messages in the log). I turned on SSIS logging to a text file and see nothing in there either.
If I bump up the MaximumErrorCount in the parent package and in the Execute Package Task that calls the child package to 4 (to go one above the error count indicated in the message above), the whole thing executes sucessfully. I don't want to leave the Max Error Count set like this. Is there something I am missing? For example are there errors that do not get logged by default? I get some warnings, do a certain number of warnings equal an error?
I€™m suffering a queer behaviour when I use BIDS. Concretely, when I open a dtsx from my project (it has 10 packages) many times Sequence Container and Data Flow tasks are invisible. I mean, its lines are not visible at all whereas its titles are. I mean, what you see is just a white box€¦
Then, I€™m gonna Data Flow layer and I have to do double-clik over the tasks and are visible but on Control Flow I don€™t see how to solve.
Curiously in our development and production server such behaviour doesn€™t happen (we are accessing by mean Terminal Server from our workstations)
How odd!. Everything is fine except this.
I want to remark you that such project has been copied from the server, this is, these packages are been built on the server

I moved a table from one file group to another file group. After moving the table the row count show 0 but when I open the table it’s returning all the rows. Is something wrong with the table? Do I have created a cluster index and drop on the table?
Hi, I have table in my db thats used as a temporary table. At the end of the day it contains thousands of records which get summarized then all are deleted. I recently moved the application over to a new server with pretty much the same hardware config and noticed a big performance hit when running queries on this temp table (455 milliseconds as opposed to 1) In short, the fix was dropping the table and re-creating it. Anybody know how this could be? I know that even if you delete records from a table, the table still seems to retain its physical size on the hard drive, could this have something to do with it?
CREATE TABLE #users(users varchar(50),pasw varchar(50),title varchar(50)) insert into #users select 'test','abcdef','ceo' SELECT * FROM #users alter table #users alter column pasw nvarchar(50) update #users set pasw=pwdencrypt(pasw) SELECT * FROM #users
What happens to the TITLE column? I had a table like the above with users and passwords in the Production DB. The password column had VARCHAR type. I changed it to NVARCHAR and encrypted the passwords. When i executed the SELECT *, the title column appeared like this. :eek: If i query the table by column names instead of * i see the correct values. I couldn't understand what behaviour is it.

I am using c# and ASP.NET 2 and I am getting a very strange error. I have a field called CompanyID in SQL Server 2005, and it allows null values in it. When this CompanyID is not NULL, ie for example it is 202, then when i press the update button it allows me to update perfectly in the database. However if the CompanyID is NULL, and I try to update the companyID, to lets say 202, the application just crashes with the following message:- System.InvalidCastException: Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types. I tried to set some breakpoints in the application to debug, however it does not even pass through these breakpoints! Any ideas on what the problem can be or how I can debug? Thanks for your help and time Johann
This is the actual statement displayed from Response.Write in classic ASP. INSERT INTO WOTasks (WoNum,TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,ModifyDate,Estimate,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost) SELECT '06-012497',TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,'2006-Oct-3',1,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost FROM Tasks WHERE procnum = '000002' There are 4 records returned from the SELECT part of the statement. In some situations, 4 records are inserted to WOTasks table, in others, only 1 record is inserted. I can't find out why 1 record, instead of 4, record is inserted. A form page submits the form to the save page using post method. The above statement is contained in the save page. When one of the form textbox is filled, 1 record is inserted. When the textbox is not filled, 4 records are inserted. You may think the textbox has something to do with the behaviour. I also think so but the content of the textbox does not affect the sql statement. In both cases, the insert statement is the same. In the actual codes, only strings in quotes are variables and the rest are hardcoded. When I run the statement in SQL Server, 4 records are affected. No such problem when connected with Access.The actual code belowSub AddTask(ByVal proc, ByVal wonum) Dim sSQL sSQL = "INSERT INTO WOTasks (WoNum,TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,ModifyDate,Estimate,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost) SELECT '" & wonum & _ "',TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,'" & curDate & "',1,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost FROM Tasks WHERE procnum='" & proc & "'" 'Response.Write sSQL:Response.End conn.Execute sSQL, , 128 End Sub
Hi there I have this statement I have written as follows:strCommand = "SELECT * FROM tblstock WHERE Type='"&Statement &"' AND Description like'"&criteria &"%' OR Tag like'"&criteria &"%'OR Location like'"&criteria &"%' OR LAN like'"&criteria &"%' OR RAM like'"&criteria &"%' OR CD like'"&criteria &"%' OR OS like '" &criteria &"%' OR SN like'" &criteria &"%' OR DeviceStatus like'" &criteria &"%' ORDER BY " &sSortStr The variable "Statement" is passed into the sub as "PC" which means only records of type "PC" should be displayed along with any other criteria. The issue I'm having is that when I specify criteria I'm also recieving other types eg "Cameras" if they contain any of my criteria.. I can't understand how because in the statement I tell it only to display records of type "PC".. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

I have a query as follow: SELECT @resRate = (SELECT resRate FROM ProjectAssign WHERE proNo = (SELECT projNo FROM Timer_Cust WHERE refNum = @actProjNo AND username= (SELECT username FROM Timer_Emp WHERE refNum = @actEmployee) ) ) the definition of table Timer_cust contains refNum(int), projNo(varchar) and projName(varchar).Timer_cust table doesn't contain column username. So this query shoud generate a runtime error. however it works fine without error.But if I run SELECT projNo FROM Timer_Cust WHERE refNum = @actProjNo AND username= (SELECT username FROM Timer_Emp WHERE refNum = @actEmployee)A runtime error message appears.Why?
Can any one tell me why sp_helpindex shows several indexes though there is only one index on the table. When i use Enterprise manager it shows only one index..Any idea..is it a bug ..do I need to apply latest service pack ?
i have four separate jobs which run at scheduled time daily..out of which one job has run properly and the other three have not run at all(there is no details of it in "View job history")for only one day in between..again from the next day all the four jobs are running properly.what could be the reason for the three jobs not running on a particular day?(The jobs were scheduled between 3 and 4am in the morning..so nobody would be using the system at that time and the system was definitely up at that time as that one job has run) i could afford to have such strange behaviour in future as the jobs are important and should run daily.any ideas by which i could make sure all four jobs run daily?
We've been finding some strange indexes in our SQL 7 database. They are not indexes we put in, but seem to be system generated. They always have the format "hind_" and then a series of numbers and underscores. Most of the time they replicate indexes we already had in place. The strangest part is that in some cases they seem to be generating multiple clustered indexes on the same table. A previous question recieved an answer saying that they were statistical indexes. Could someone shed a little more light on what these are, where they came from, and how I can prevent them from coming back? Our queries usually take much longer on tables with these "rogue" indexes on them. Thanks.
I have a SP that usually works fine (0-16 CPU time, 40 ms Duration), but from time to time the server hangs with apparently no reason. The SP has a lock timeout set to 500, so it should abort if a lock timeout error (1222) occurs but it doesn't. The Profiler reports very long execution time (over 30 sec), and because of that all other SP calls are blocked, 'cause the transaction opened by the first sp execution is not finished yet. Any other attempts to identify other blocking queries did not show me anything suspect (sp_lock, dbcc opentran) other then the usual blocked chain. I'm starting to think about an IO bottleneck, or IO failure, that could block the disk access and cause the delay. The status of RAID 5 is healthy.
The server is used as storage system for a website (approx. 2000 concurrent users), and occasionally I noticed an ASP queue, but this strange behavior occurs even during the peak-off hours.

Hello I have one PC with SQL server 2000 and I am working on one database called TaxReg but today I found it gray and (suspect) beside it could you please tell what is the problem and how to fix it ?
I received some strange results after typing the wrong column in a subselect using IN. I've been puzzling over it a while now and can't quite figure out why it is doing what it is. Here's an example of what is happening.
use northwind go
select * from Customers where CustomerID in ( select CustomerID from Employees where 1 = 0 )
Now, there is no customerid on the Employees table, so running the subquery alone will produce an error. However when the full query above is run, all rows in the customer table are returned.
It was my understanding that the inner querry is evaluated first, and the results used by the outer query. I'm having a hard time seeing how this query is going anywhere.
I have a simple query which ran fine for the last 12 months. All of sudden, it's dragging and couldn't finish in 6 hours. I tried to trace down where the problem resided but it's such a simple query there is nothing to break down. By chance, I commented out all the column names and replace with ' SELECT * ', the query finished in 14 seconds. Once I replace the * with column names, it ran over 20 minutes and I had to cancel it because it doesn't seem to be returning any results. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
When I use only 2 dimensions linked with my fact and process the cube, I get the correct results for my measure (I have checked this will all possible combinations of the 2 dimensions)....
However when I add more dimensions, link them with the fact, process the cube, and check the same results I get totally different totals for my measure :confused:
I realize that ideally I should post the DDLs for all dimensions etc. but to start with can anyone think of what could be causing this.
