Hello Everybody,
I have a problem that I have an exception from a SQLDataSource when a user types in more characters to a TextBox then is allowed.
First of all - is there ant built in ASP.NET way to handle that problem?
Second - if not then I have to handle the Exception from the SQLDataSource myself. I can write a handler for that which will look like:1 protected void DetailsViewDS_OnUpdated(object sender, SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs e)
2 {
3 if (e.Exception != null)
4 {
5 // do some stuff
6 }
7 }
The problem is that I would like to show the user an error message which says how many characters he can insert. So the other question is: is there any way to get automatically from the SQL DB what is a maximum length of a varchar? If I use LEN/LENGTH it gives me the current length of given entry (which actually is the current length of the varchar). But I want to get the maximum length of this concrete varchar (NOT the varchar(max) - this shows maximum length of a varchar in general - like ~20000 ).
I hope I did not make it too complex ;)
All the best,
Joseph A. Habdank
My query has 9000 characters, so when I run BCP, I get "The input line is too long error". Is there any workaround? If so, can you please explain what it is?
I have a scenario where in I need to use a comma delimited string as input. And search the tables with each and every string in the comma delimited string.
I have a nasty situation in SQL Server 7.0. I have a table, in whichone column contains a string-delimited list of IDs pointing to anothertable, called "Ratings" (Ratings is small, containing less than tenvalues, but is subject to change.) For example:[ratingID/descr]1/Bronze2/Silver3/Gold4/PlatinumWhen I record rows in my table, they look something like this:[uniqueid/ratingIDs/etc...]1/2, 4/...2/null/...3/1, 2, 3/...My dilemma is that I can't efficiently read rows in my table, match thestring of ratingIDs with the values in the Ratings table, and returnthat in a reasonable fashion to my jsp. My current stored proceduredoes the following:1) Query my table with the specified criteria, returning ratingIDs as acolumn2) Split the tokens in ratingIDs into a table3) Join this small table with the Ratings table4) Use a CURSOR to iterate through the rows and append it to a string5) Return the string.My query then returns...1/"Silver, Platinum"2/""3/"Bronze, Silver, Gold"And is easy to output.This is super SLOW! Queries on ~100 rows that took <1 sec now take 12secs. Should I:a) Create a junction table to store the IDs initially (I didn't thinkthis would be necessary because the Ratings table has so few values)b) Create a stored procedure that does a "SELECT * FROM Ratings," putthe ratings in a hashtable/map, and match the values up in Java, sinceJava is better for string manipulation?c) Search for alternate SQL syntax, although I don't believe there isanything useful for this problem pre-SQL Server 2005.Thanks!Adam
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
My SQL statement: SQL Server seems to think my SQL Statement is too long........ I'm not sure why.

I have verified that Label1.Text has a value that looks like an integer. What is causing the problem? Is there a better way of creating a new record in the child table and making one of the fields match the primary key of the parent table? Thanks.

really strange error
this is the table t1 name varchar id bigint
select name from t1 works. select id from t1 gave me the same error as above too.
Is it because of its compatible with odbc connection for SQL Server 2005?
what is causing the problem?
Further updates!! select id from t1 works if data type is int instead of bigint !!! is this a problem with the SQL Server driver?

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.
