String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated. (only For 1700 Character String?)
Nov 2, 2006I am trying to insert a row into a table of Microsoft SQL Server 2000.
There are various columns.
[SNO] [numeric](3, 0) NOT NULL ,
[DATT] [char] (32) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
,
[DATTA] [char] (3000) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
,
[CODECS] [char] (32) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
,
The [DATTA] column is causing a problem. Even if I am trying to put only 1700 character string into [DATTA], the java code throws the following exception:-
StaleConnecti A CONM7007I: Mapping the following
SQLException, with ErrorCode 0 and SQLState 08S01, to a
StaleConnectionException: java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000
Driver for JDBC]Connection reset
at
com.microsoft.jdbc.base.BaseExceptions.createException(Unknown Source)
Why is it throwing an exception even though the sum-total of this row doesn't exceed 8000 characters?
Can anyone please tell me what's wrong?

View 7 Replies View RelatedData Conversion From String To Decimal When Saving Data To SQL Server 2005 Using An ADO Recordset
Feb 12, 2008Hello,
I am wondering what conversion rules apply, when a string, which contains a number, is saved to a SQL Server 2005 into a column of type decimal.
This is the code I€™m using (C++):
CString cValue = "0.75"
_variant_t vtFieldValue;
vtFieldValue = _variant_t(cValue)
pRecordSet->Fields->Item["MyColumn"]->Value = vtFieldValue;
"pRecordSet" is an ADO recordset. The database column "MyColumn" is of type "decimal(19,10)".
The most important question for me is, if the regional settings of the database server or the regional settings of the client PC are considered during the conversion from the string to the decimal value. For example in standard French regional settings the "." would not be recognized as decimal separator.
I am also wondering if the language of the database instance, in which this data is saved, is considered during this conversion or any other settings of this database instance.
So my general question is: Does anybody know exactly what rules apply during the above mentioned conversion?
Thank you for your help.

Import Data From Excel-Sheet Via OleDb In VB.Net - How To Get A Columns Data As String?
Oct 25, 2007 Hello,
i want to import data from an excel sheet into a database. While reading from the excel sheet OleDb automatically guesses the Datatype of each column. My Problem is the first A Column which contains ~240 Lines. 210 Lines are Numbers, the latter 30 do contain strings. When i use this code:
Code BlockDim sConn As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & conf_path_current & file_to_import & ";Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=NO"""
Dim oConn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection(sConn)
Dim cmd1 As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("Select * From [Table$]", oConn)
Dim rdr As OleDb.OleDbDataReader = cmd1.ExecuteReader
Do While rdr.Read()
Console.WriteLine(rdr.Item(0)) 'or rdr(0).ToString
Next
it will continue to read the stuff till the String-Lines are coming.
when using Item(0), it just crashes for trying to convert a DBNull to a String, when using rdr(0).ToString() it just gives me no value.
So my question is how to tell OleDB that i want that column to be completly read as String/Varchar?
Thanks for Reading

Truncation Of String Data With Data Reader Source Connecting To ODBC DSN
Mar 18, 2007A data reader is using a connection manager to connect to an ODBC System DSN . A query in the SqlCommand property is provided. Data is being truncated in the only string column . The data type in data reader output-->external columns shows as Unicode string [DT_WSTR] Length 7.
The truncated output in a text file is the first 3 characters from left to right . Changing the column order has no effect.
A linked server was created in SQL Server Management Studio to test the ODBC System DSN using the following:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'server_name',
@srvproduct = '',
@provider = 'MSDASQL',
@datasrc = 'odbc_dsn_name'
Data returned using "OPENQUERY" does not truncate the string column indicating that the ODBC Driver returns data as expected with sql 2005, but not with the Data Reader.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Transact SQL :: Key And Indexes On Two Column Data Table Or Parsed View (Large String Of Data And Filename)
Oct 4, 2015I am studying indexes and keys. I have a table that has a fixed width of data to be loaded in the first column which is parsed in a view based on data types within the fixed width specifications.
Example column A:
(name phone house cost of house,zipcodecountystatecountry)
-a view will later split this large varchar string basedÂ
column b: is the source filename of the data load (varchar 256)
....
a. would there be a benefit of adding a clustered or nonclustered index (if so which/point in direction on why)
b. is there benefit of making one of these two columns a primary key (millions of records) or for adding a 3rd new column as a pk?
c. view: this parses the data in column a so it ends up looking more like "name phone house cost of house zipcode county state country" each having their own column.
-any pros/cons of adding indexes (if so which) to the view instead of the tables or both for once the data is parsed?
String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated. I Get This Error When Entering Data Using Sql Server Management Studio Express.
May 21, 2008String or binary data would be truncated. I get this error when entering data using sql server management studio express.
I am not running a sql to insert or update the table. This is through the EDI.
The data type is varchar(100). I enter one character and it errors on me. So this isn't a string being too long problem.
Any ideas?
SqlServer 2005 String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated When Data Is OK
Feb 21, 2006When using AquaData or JDBC (inet tds driver), when doing an insert using SqlServer 2005, I get error "String or binary data would be truncated" when the data is actually OK. There are no triggers, etc. that would confuse the situation. It works fine in SqlServer 2000.
The scenario is as follows:
Create table:
create table test3 (
name varchar (18) ,
tbname varchar (18)
)
Create and populate table:
create table maxtable (
tablename varchar (18) not null,
[...]
)
Try to insert into test3:
insert into test3 (name, tbname)
select i.name, o.name
from dbo.sysindexes i, sysobjects o, maxtable m
where i.indid > 0 and i.indid < 255
and i.id = o.id and i.indid = 1
and o.name = lower(m.tablename)
And I get the error "String or binary data would be truncated." The values being selected for i.name and o.name have maximum length of 18. There are other rows in sysindexes and sysobjects with longer values, but they are not being selected.
The error does not occur with SQL Server Management Studio, and does not occur using SqlServer 2000.
TSQL - Trim String Containing Both Data And Value Into 2 Separate Data Fields
Aug 20, 2007Hi!
Need help with this one:
I have a column with a string composed by several data. After using REPLACE several times, I get something like the data below, which has (in most of cases) a value and a date.
378 9/05
388 9/05
4/05
1/06 606
1/06 646
76 5/05
100 1/05
118 8/05
129 8/05
9/05 342
05/3 123
1/07
4/06 164
The problem is that I need to get each value alone (to separate columns), in example:
Value Date
378 09/2005
388 09/2005
0 04/2005
...
606 01/2006
and so on...
In addittion you can see that sometimes the Value come first or alone, and sometimes the Date come first or alone.
I will appreciate any good ideas,
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.

Summarizing Data And Building A String With Summarized Data
Mar 7, 2008Hi there,
I'm faced with a bit of an issue within SSIS and I was wondering if anyone could help. I have data that looks like the following:
TABLE 1:::
CustomerID StaffID Percentage
A123 1234 1
A124 1245 1
A125 1234 0.7
A125 1443 0.3
B117 6653 1
B154 8899 1
C776 1443 0.2
C776 1337 0.6
C776 1245 0.2
I need to be able to summarize the data above and build up a string that should look like the following:
TABLE 2:::
CustomerID StringID
A123 1234||1
A124 1245||1
A125 1234||0.7||1443||0.3
B117 6653||1
B154 8899||1
C776 1443||0.2||1337||0.6||1245||0.2
As you can see in Table 1, if a CustomerID has only one StaffID associated to it, the "Percentage" Column's value is 1. In the cases where there is more than one StaffID associated to a particular CustomerID, the percentage column get's split up among the StaffIDs, however the sum of this split can never exceed 1 (100%) per CustomerID.
I need to know how to find the cases where there is more than one StaffID associated to a CustomerID, group the CustomerIDs, and build a string made up with the StaffID and Percentages as shown in Table 2.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've struggled with this one for a while and have hit a brick wall.
Ciao,

View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL String Data Parsing
Sep 16, 2007<p>
Hi everybody, I was hoping to get some advice something I can't quite get my head around. I have a SQL db which contains a table with ratings using the AJAX rating control.
When someone rates an object, I need to select the current rating and then use those numbers to;
- calculate the new average
- add new score to total score
- increment number of votes by one.
I thought this can be best achieved using the SELECT statement and then parsing the SELECT string. (is the string comma separated?)
using each array, i'd need to convert this into integers and then do the calculation. and re-upload the data to the ratings table (using the UPDATE statement).
Is this the best way of proceeding? I have tried initially to write the code using three sql statements. But that would mean to many requests from the server, right?
Below is the conde I have writting already.int myrating;
myrating = Rating1.CurrentRating;string getscore = "SELECT " +
"RatingScore" +"FROM Rating " +
"WHERE ItemID= '" + _ItemID+ "'";string getcount = "SELECT " +
"RatingCount" +"FROM Rating " +
"WHERE ItemID = '" + _ItemID + "'";string getaverage = "SELECT " +
"RatingAverage " +"FROM Rating " +"WHERE ItemID = '" + _ItemID + "'";
int _ratingscore;int _newscore; _ratingscore = int.Parse(getscore);
_newscore = _ratingscore + myrating; //add new rating score to old scoreint _ratingcount;
int _newcount;_ratingcount = int.Parse(getcount);
_newcount = _ratingcount + 1; //increase count by 1int _ratingaverage;
int _newaverage;_ratingaverage = int.Parse(getaverage);
_newaverage = _newscore / _newcount; //calculate new average rating
otherwise
otherwise would i be best off to do the following?...
string[] dbRatings = SQLstring.Split(',');
??
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.

Converting Hex Data To String
Jan 21, 2001I am writing a stored procedure that generates a computername for new workstations. Our naming standards, based on terminal ID's, are as follows:
'R' + X + Y + ZZZ, where 'R' is the letter 'R', X is a hex digit indication a locatoin, Y is a hex digit indicating business line, and ZZZ is a hexadecimal sequential number assigned within each location/busines line, for up to 4096. (This isn't a perfect naming standard, but is an improvement over the one that preceded it and is a requirement for our legacy applications).
I can do everything fine, and calculate the sequential number using an int. Once I have the new number, I am trying to convert the integer to a varbinary, then convert that to a string, then use RIGHT to get the rightmost three characters of the hex string.
set @SEQNUM = 4095
set @HEXSEQNUM = CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM)
PRINT CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM) -- displays 0x00000FFE etc.
PRINT 'HEXSEQNUM ' + @HEXSEQNUM -- displays 'HEXSEQNUM'
Any ideas? I am very new to TSQL...

String Data, Right Truncation

I am trying to execute one huge select statement from my application using ODBC, but I am getting this error:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]String data, right truncation.
the select statement is bigger than 2000 characters, but I don't have any long string column, just strings and numbers. How can I work around this?
Is there any max size? Because if I use less than 1000 characters, it works fine.
I am using Centura/SqlWindows, Native Sql Server ODBC and SqlServer 2005. unfortunately, I can not use Ole from my application.

String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated
Aug 9, 2006Hi Folks,
After I inserted a row in my Database (row 27) I started getting this error when I try to insert, update or delete the record in the database.
I've searched about the error on google and it says that I should have a field that crossed the limit of characters.
I have only the autoincrement field, two varchar fields and a text field, neither one of the varchar fields crossed the limit, they arent even close. I found in google that one solution would be turn the field that is having problems in a text field, but the only field that actually can be causing the problem already is of the text type.
The exact error I get on VS 2005 when trying to change something in the row 27 is:
"No row was updated.
The data in row 27 was not committed.Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider.Error Message: String or binary data would be truncated.The statement has been terminated.
Corret the errors and retry or press ESC to cancel the change(s)."
I need some help guyz, see ya, hugs.

String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated
Sep 12, 2007I am currently developing a simple program that will upload ms-word documents to a database so users can view them within the department.
The program worked prefectly while using sql 2005 with the these fields:
FormId intFileName nvarchar(50)FileBytes varbinary(Max)
This was done in unit testing, now in system testing there is a difference.
A slight downgrade in the database and server software!
We are using sql 2000 on a 2000 server and the FileBytes datatype had to change to the following:
FormId intFileName nvarchar 50 FileBytes varbinary 8000
There is no 'Max' option in sql 2000 for the datatype varbinary.
So when the insert is perform, we get this error message:
String or binary data would be truncated.The statement has been terminated.
I am guessing it has something to do with FileBytes, because this is the only thing that changed.
I just don't know how to solve the problem.P.S.The application is in ASP.NET 2.0
Thanks,

String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated.
Oct 8, 2007I keep getting the error "String or binary data would be truncated." when I try to insert data into SQL Sever 2005 from an ASP.net page. Having searched thoughout the web, I know this is generally caused because one of the values being inserted is bigger than the size of the field it's going into. But, I have tested this out in many different ways, and this is not what's causing the problem.
I have tried doing the insert as a SQL statement and using the "ExecuteNonQuery" command. I have also tried running this through a stored procedure. Neither works. In both situations, I have captured the TSQL statements via SQL Profiler and run them in a query window. In both cases, the statements work just fine in a query window.
When I try to do the insert via a stored procedure, all of the statements in the stored procedure show up in SQL Profiler, including the final SELECT statement I have the indicates a successful result. But, the data does not end up in the table and the ASP.net page returns an error.
Also, I have run both the Stored Proceure and the SQL insert statement making all of the fields blank as a way of ensuring that no value can be longer than a field's size. But, in both cases I still get the same error.
Here's the line I use when doing a regular insert:
Dim Command4 = New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("INSERT INTO ResourceCenter(UserEmail, UserPassword, Region, FirstName, LastName, Company, JobTitle, Address1, Address2, City, StateProvince, ZipPostalCode, Country, BusinessPhone, WebSiteURL, HowDidYouFind, Industry, WhatTypeOfSolution, CompanySize, NumLogins, LastLogin) VALUES ('" & UserEmail & "', '" & UserPassword & "', '" & Region & "', '" & FirstName & "', '" & LastName & "', '" & Company & "', '" & JobTitle & "', '" & Address1 & "', '" & Address2 & "', '" & City & "', '" & StateProvince & "', '" & ZipPostalCode & "', '" & Country & "', '" & BusinessPhone & "', '" & WebSiteURL & "', '" & HowDidYouFind & "', '" & Industry & "', '', '', 1, " & Now & ")", conn2)
Dim NumRowsUpdated2 = Command4.ExecuteNonQuery()
Here's my code when I call a stored procedure:
Dim dsSignup As New Data.DataSet()Dim Command4 As New Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter("ap_ResourceCenterModify", conn2)Command4.SelectCommand.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedureCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@UserID", Data.SqlDbType.Int, 0).Value = 0Command4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@UserEmail", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = UserEmailCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@UserPassword", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 20).Value = UserPasswordCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Region", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50).Value = RegionCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = FirstNameCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@LastName", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = LastNameCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Company", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = CompanyCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@JobTitle", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = JobTitleCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Address1", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = Address1Command4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Address2", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = Address2Command4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@City", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = CityCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@StateProvince", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50).Value = StateProvinceCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@ZipPostalCode", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50).Value = ZipPostalCodeCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Country", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 200).Value = CountryCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@BusinessPhone", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = BusinessPhoneCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@WebSiteURL", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 200).Value = WebSiteURLCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@HowDidYouFind", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = HowDidYouFindCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Industry", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = IndustryCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@WhatTypeOfSolution", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 250).Value = WhatTypeOfSolutionCommand4.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@CompanySize", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = CompanySizeCommand4.Fill(dsSignup)Any ideas of what else I can try? Thanks in advance.

String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated
Jan 7, 2004I am trying to pass a multi lined text field into my SQL Server database. I tried varchar and set the length to 1000 but I still can only pass upto 50 charcters. I also have tried to use other data types like nvarchar, text, and ntext but the text and ntext won't allow me to chenge the length of the field and n varchar will only allow up to 50 charcters no matter how big I make the length. Any help you can give me would be great.

String Or Binary Data Would Be Truncated
Jun 21, 2004I have a stored proc that inserts binary data into an image field.
I am getting a "String or binary data would be truncated" error when trying to insert large data, but this is *no where* near the maximum size of the image datatype.
Should I be declaring the size of the image parameter in my SQLCommand or something?
TIA,
Mark
Code example:
The sproc:
ALTER PROCEDURE sproc_Content_Insert
(
@ContentName varchar(250),
@ContentDesc varchar(500),
@ContentType varchar(25),
@Content image,
@LocationID int
)
AS
INSERT INTO tbl_Content (ContentName, ContentDesc, ContentType, Content, LocationID)
VALUES (@ContentName, @ContentDesc, @ContentType, @Content, @LocationID)
The method:
Public Sub SaveBinaryContent(ByRef ContentName As String, ByRef ContentDesc As String, ByRef ContentType As String, ByRef Content As String, ByRef LocationID As Integer)
'convert the content to a binary stream.
Dim ms As New System.IO.MemoryStream
Dim bf As New BinaryFormatter
bf.Serialize(ms, Content)
ms.Position = 0
Dim oConn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString"))
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("sproc_Content_Insert", oConn)
With cmd
.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
.Parameters.Add("@ContentName", ContentName)
.Parameters.Add("@ContentDesc", ContentDesc)
.Parameters.Add("@ContentType", ContentType)
.Parameters.Add("@Content", ms.ToArray)
.Parameters.Add("@LocationID", LocationID)
End With
oConn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
oConn.Close()
oConn.Dispose()
cmd.Dispose()
bf = Nothing
ms = Nothing
End Sub
