Text Doesn't Support Rtrim,ltrim Etc Functions...which Is Other Better Way To Save A Long String
Nov 10, 2007
Hi
I sent a long string of ID from front end to my stored procedure...till now I was using varchar(8000)...but if the string crossess that limit it is breaking.
If I try to use text datatype..It doesn't support rtrim, stuff functions etc...
So could any one suggest me a best way to save a long string without any restriction of size...
My front end is C#.Net and Back End is SQL SERVER 2000
Thanks in advance

Could somebody please give me a syntax that I can use to trim spaces. I have used and I still have the spaces. :
UPDATE MAP SET ROAD = RTRIM (STREET)
UPDATE MAP SET ROAD = LTRIM (STREET)
We are trying to clean up spaces at road intersections. Thanks for your assistance.

I have some data that contains spaces both before and after the text string, and now I'm wondering what would be the best method to remove these blanks (sometimes there are no blanks, so I can't check with a specifik width)?
Is it possible to do something like:
set foo = ltrim(rtrim(foo))
or do I have to split it into 2 steps?
This trimming will be done in update & insert statements

You all have been so much help, but I've discovered yet another problem. I'm trying to clean up my table using the following command:
UPDATE dbo.TableName
SET First_Name = LTrim(RTrim(First_Name))But it does not seem to have any effect. Thoughts? Thanks!

I'm not sure about why I'm not able to remove spaces even after trimming them. Below is the result of query I'm usning.
select distinct LTRIM(RTRIM(Promotion_Code)) Promotion_Code
--, count(Promotion_code)
from dbo.Marketing_Promotion_Tb
where Promotion_code like '%1BTPIZZA%'
Result :
Promotion_Code Length
1BTPIZZA 10
1BTPIZZA 8

I have a question that has a co-worker and myself confused. We are using the SQL Server Enterprise Manager. When I select return all rows in my tables, any content that is too long will appear as <Long Text> on my co-workers machine, but the column is blank on my machine. Is there a property or configuration that enables/disables <Long Text>? I am confused as to why it appears on other machines, but not mine.
Your help is appreciated.

hi,
i have worked three days on a query to display all my results in a beautiful report. The query is fine because when i execute it in Query Analyzer i have all results i want to see in my statistics-table in my report...
One thing: it's contains about 100 unioned statements, which results in a super-long query. Performance is OK because it are all 100 very easy statements that are union-ed together.
But, when I copy-paste it in my query-string window/textbox of the report designer, I see that there's a maximum on that textbox lenght, which results in the fact that my long query suddenly stops.
Any solutions????

I've below value in a column with data type - TEXT
QU 221025U2V/AN G-DT DL A 5 1A- 11,5,SF,230,30162,LZ,2,118,0,0,10170,25,06
This text value has some special characters in it. and I could not paste the exact value as this text box is not allowing me to do so. So, for reference I've attached a screenshot (Capture.png) of the value.
I want to fetch last two values from this text i.e. 25 and 06. (It can be anything like 56R,06T but will be the last two values separated by comma)...

Any way to parse out a text value (not varChar, using text data type) that is > than 8000 characters long? I'm looping through 1 big string passed to the DB that is pipe delimited, but I find myself needing the substring function to keep track of which segment I'm acting on (after an update, I then need to take that segment and remove it from the string)...but the subString function won't take anything larger than 8000 chars.
Say I have this string that is text data type...
'aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|....'
..and so on, surpassing 8000 char length, how could you parse it out using the pipes as the delimter, then do an Update using that segment? Afterward, return to that string and find the next segment, then use it, and so on (in a loop). I tried using an update to set the string = replace(string, segmentJustUsed, '') to "erase" it, but replace can't take text as the datatype. Any help? Hope this isn't to confusing.

dtexec.exe allows us to pass values into a package using /SET and a property path. Why can't we do the same using the Execute Package Task?
And yes, I know about Parent Package Configurations, I use them alot. But I would still like the ability to pass values in.

Hi,
Im a programmer for an university webportal which uses php and msssql.
When an user creates a new entry and his text is too long the entry is cut short and weird characters appear at the end of the entry.
For example:
http://www.ttz.uni-magdeburg.de/scripts/test-messedb/php/index.php?option=show_presse&funktion=presse_show_mitteilung&id=333
How can I set the text limit to unlimited?
Could it be something else?
Is there a way of splitting an entry to several text fields automatically?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me,
Chris

So i am trying to make a simple database and with one table and use a gui to make rows.
When i run the program in debug mode it creates a new copy of my DB in the debug folder and saves only their, i cannot find a way to save back to the original DB no matter what i do including changing the Copy to Output Directory.
Now the more i try to fix this the more new DB it creates one in the Release Folder, one in the bin/Debug/bin/Debug
one in bin/Release/bin/Release.
I am going crazy trying to scoure the entire project looking for someplace i can fix this.
All i want is to create a DB and be able to make changes to it and only it.
Does anyone have any solutions to this?
Thank you for your time

Hi,I have a problem to insert(update) a long text (more than 64K) intoSQL 2000 (datatype - 'text'). It cuts the data and insert only 64K.MSDN says: "When the ntext, text, and image data values get larger,however, they must be handled on a block-by-block basis. BothTransact-SQL and the database APIs contain functions that allow applications towork with ntext, text, and image data block by block." Could somebodygive me an example how to do this, please.Thank you

This question has been asked a lot, without a definitive answer. Can you tell me if SQL Server 2008 will support rich text. I believe the November CTP does not have this functionality. It is a pretty important decision regarding my organization's adoption of the new product.

You should use readtext and writetext to access text column. By the way, nchar and nvarchar can hold up to 4000 characteres.
