Im trying to use a .NET IPAddress in my UDT. i create the assembly, but i get this error when i try to create the type in SQL Server:
Type "IPAddress.IPAddressUDTType" is marked for native serialization, but field "address" of type "IPAddress.IPAddressUDTType" is not valid for native serialization.
From what i understand about the IPAddress object in .NET it is serializable. what am i doing wrong
( note, im just doing this for research purposes and not planing to use the UDT)
Hi,
i am using command files(.cmd) and osql utility to conneft to a database.
following is the requirement.
I have a query "SELECT top 1 au_fname FROM pubs..authors".
Can i store the value of au_fname in the command file?
Is there any work around for this.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.... :)
I've looked all over but can't find a solid answer. I've got afunction that runs from a View and when the function runs the firsttime it is calculating a Temperature for a group of Formulas. What Iwant to do is calculate this temperature in the UDF on the first passand store it somewhere (table, global variable etc.). On everyexecution after that I'd like to use the value stored so I don't haveto recalculate the value again for the specific group defined.I've looked at storing the data in a table from the UDF but UDF'sdon't support dynamic SQL statements and can't run a stored procedure.The key here is we have a view that calls a UDF (user-definedfunction). Using SQL 2000.Any ideas would be very helpful. Thanks.

Need some guidelines:
I wanted to create a report with parameters. The users will access the reports via
http://localhost/Reportserver/myReportName
Now, each user will have their own default parameters and would like to be stored(somewhere!!!) as "user preference", so nexttime when they access this report it should display data with the "user preference" parameters.
Can someone give me some advise to implement this.
Many thanks.
I have a ipaddress column is there where i need to split the column into two columns because of
values like below
172.26.248.8,Fe80::7033:acba:a4bd:f874
172.26.248.8,Fe80::7033:acba:a4bd:f874
172.26.248.8,Fe80::7033:acba:a4bd:f874
I have written the below query but it will throw some error.
select SUBSTRING(IPAddress0, 1, CHARINDEX(',', IPAddress0) - 1) as IPAddress0
from IPADDRESS
error:
Msg 537, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Invalid length parameter passed to the LEFT or SUBSTRING function.
Let's say you had a User table and one of the fields was called Deceased. It's a simple closed-ended question, so a bit value could be used to satisfy the field, if the person is dead or alive. Let's say another field is called EyeColor. A person can have only one eye color and thus one answer should be stored in this value, so this is easy as well.
Now, let's say I want to store all the languages that a specific user can speak. This isn't as easy as the previous examples since it's not a yes or no or a single-value answer. I haven't had much experience with working with databases so I've come up with two possible ways with my crude knowledge hehe.
In terms of inputting the multi-answer values, I suppose I could use a multiple-selection listbox, cascading dropdowns, etc. Now, here are the 2 solutions that came to mind.....
1) Make a field called LanguagesSpoken in the User table. When I process the selections the user makes on the languages he knows, I can then insert into the LanguagesSpoken field a string "English, Spanish, Czech" or IDs corresponding to the languages like "1, 5, 12" (these IDs would be referenced from a separate table I guess). I would use commas so that later on, when I need to display a user's profile and show the user's languages, I can retrieve that long string from the LanguagesSpoken field, and parse the languages with the commas I've used. Using commas would just be a convention I use so I would know how to parse (I could have used "." or "|" or anything else I guess) the data.
2) Forget about the LanguagesSpoken field in the User table altogether, and just make a LanguagesSpoken table. A simple implementation would have 3 fields (primary key, userId, languageId). A row would associate a user with a language. So I would issue a query like "SELECT * FROM LanguagesSpoken WHERE userId=5" (where userId=5 is some user). Using this method would free me from having to store a string with delimited values into the User table and then to parse data when I need them. However, I'm not sure how efficient this method would be if the LanguagesSpoken table grows really large since the userIds would NOT be contiguous, the search might take a long time. I guess I would index the userId field in the LanguagesSpoken table for quicker access?
OR, I may be going about this the wrong way and I'm way out on left field with these 2 solutions. Is there a better way other than those 2 methods?
I haven't work extensively with databases and I'm just familiar with the basics. I'm just trying to find out the best-practice implementation for this type of situation. I'm sure in the real world, situations like this is very common and I wonder how the professionals code this.
Thanks in advance.
How to sort table in sql2000 with ipaddress(format x.x.x.x) as column with nvarchar datatype in ascending order
without using stored procedure
Ex:
Table: netComputers(3 rows)
Column Name: ipAddress (string data type)
ipAddress
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.0.1
Sql query : if I use the query
Select ipAddress from netComputers order by cast( replace(ipaddress,'.','') as numeric(12)) asc
Gives result as :
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.18.1
Where as expected result should be:
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
what is the command to grant sysadmin to the user?

Hi all, I've tried all types of formats use this function and coming up with errors
the function works fine in SQL so not sure of the proper format to call a function with variaibles
have tried
EXEC EquivalentCase = dbo.udfEquivalentCase(@ConversionValue1= ?,@ConversionValue2 = ?, @CasesSold = ?, @CasesSold=?, @OwnershipCode = ?, @BusSegCode = ? )
and
dbo.udfEquivalentCase(?,?,?,?,?)
and
select
dbo.udfEquivalentCase(?,?,?,?,?)
is there somewhere that provides proper syntax for executing a user defined function from a OLE DB command?
Thanks
I have a script from ASP.NET application services. It can be crated using the aspnet_regsql.exe utility in the 2.0 framework. The beginning of the script contains the following:
Code Snippet SQL
DECLARE @dbname nvarchar(128)
DECLARE @dboptions nvarchar(1024)
SET @dboptions = N'/**/'
SET @dbname = N'databasename'
IF (NOT EXISTS (SELECT name
FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases
WHERE name = @dbname))
BEGIN
PRINT 'Creating the ' + @dbname + ' database...'
DECLARE @cmd nvarchar(500)
SET @cmd = 'CREATE DATABASE [' + @dbname + '] ' + @dboptions
EXEC(@cmd)
END
GO
USE [databasename]
GO
I have a database in the App_Data folder in an ASP.NET website project. It shows up in the Server Explorer. But when I run this script on that database, the output seems fine (No rows affected. (0 row(s) returned) etc) but no tables are actually created in the database I ran it on. The database connection string in the Server Explorer has AttachDbFilename and User Instance=True.
So what exactly happens when SQL Server Express executes the CREATE DATABASE and USE [databasename] in this context? Is it ignored, is there now a new database somewhere on my machine, because the script seems to run fine on SOME database, just not the one expected.
Thanks!
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?

Hi
We have a user-defined function that can be called directly via SQL (in SQL Server Management Studio) without error. We would like to use this function to populate a column, whist data is being processed within Integration Services. Using an OLE DB Command transformation to achieve this would seem the most appropriate.
The following was inserted for the SQLCommand property:
EXEC ? = dbo.GetOrderlineStatus(@dt_required = ?, @dt_invoice = ?, @dt_despatch = ?, @ch_status = ?, @si_suffix = ?, @re_quantity = ?, @vc_invoice_id = ?, @vc_order_id = ?)
However, when the Refresh button is pressed we are presented with the error below:
Error at Load Orderline [OLE DB Command [15171]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8004E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x8004E14 Description: "Invalid parameter number".
If we use SET instead of EXEC (e.g. SET ? = dbo.GetOrderlineStatus(@dt_required = ?, @dt_invoice = ?, @dt_despatch = ?, @ch_status = ?, @si_suffix = ?, @re_quantity = ?, @vc_invoice_id = ?, @vc_order_id = ?)) the following error is produced:

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I have following problem:
I'm developing a Windows Mobile application, which is using RDA Pull for retrieving data from SQL Server 2005 database to PDA. Please, see the example:
Code Snippet
using (SqlCeEngine engine = new SqlCeEngine(connStr))
{
engine.CreateDatabase();
}
serverConnStr="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=.;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=Demo;Password=xxx";
using (SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess(
Configuration.Default.SyncServerAddress, "", "", connStr))
{
rda.Pull("MyTable", "SELECT * FROM mytable", serverConnStr, RdaTrackOption.TrackingOffWithIndexes, "ErrorTable");
}
Everythink works fine, when I use 'sa' user account in serverConnStr.
But, when I change conn string to:
"Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=.;User ID=test;Initial Catalog=Demo;Password=test"
the sqlcesa30.dll cannot connect to SQL Server database.
In the sqlcesa30.log then I found following line:
Code Snippet
2007/04/17 10:43:31 Thread=1EE30 RSCB=16 Command=PULL Hr=80040E4D Login failed for user 'test'. 18456
The user 'test' is member of db_owner, db_datareader and public roles for the Demo database and in SQL Server Management Studio I'm able to login to the Demo database with using the 'test' users credentials and I'm able to run the select command on 'mytable'.
So, what's wrong? Why the sqlcesa30.dll process cannot login to the Demo database, and from another application with using the SAME connection string it works?
Please help.
Thank you.

i'm using the Enterpirse library logger to write logs into a database.
When choosing connection string i choose the database i want in the "connection properties" dialog box and
push 'Test connection' button.
everything goes well.
then i open the SQL Server Management studio express and connect to the databse to check some things,
from that point on , when i push the 'Test Connection' button in the Enterprise library i get the error:
"cannot open user default database. Login failed. login failed for user My'server/MyuserName'"
even when i close the sql server manager , it is still stuck - the connection test doesn't work anymore....
it only work when i restart the computer.
why ?
Hi, can someone help me with this problem. I have recently downloaded VWD and have been playing around with it a bit. I was windering how do I add an image file to a SQL database. I have used SQL in the past but I have never store an image in it. I can add text data and so forth, but I need some pointers into adding images to the sql database. I want to be able to store the images and then retrieve them to a GridView. I have the images in an image folder within the website, but I do not know how to input the reference or link to the images in an sql table.
A quick example, say I have a table called Images, with the following info:imgID (int)imgDesc (varchar(max)imgFile (img)imgTitle (varchar(20))
To input this in sql I would write Insert Into Images (imgDesc,imgFile,imgTitle) Values ("Large fishy", "", "The Big Fish") what would I need to put for imgFile?
I would really appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction.

Has anyone come across this issue before?
For example (without encoding for readability):
SQL should store the parsed string as: <a href="someurl" class="main">
but for some reason it's being stored as: <a href=�someurl� class=�main�>.
