Unique INDEX With Upper/lower Case
Sep 18, 2006Hi
I can't create unique index like that:
1 - create table abc ( colZ varchar(10) )
2 - insert into abc values ( "test")
3 - insert into abc values ("Test")
4 - create unique index idx_abc on abc ( colZ ) -- This doesnt work
.... duplicate key was found for object name abc......
Is not there difference between "Test" and "test"?
Can I work around this?
cheers,

View 4 Replies View RelatedTransact SQL :: Convert City Name To Upper / Lower
Jul 7, 2015In the database, most of our cities are stored in all upper case. For reporting purposes, I need to have them returned as upper/lower. I used the below function, which works great for one word cities. However I can’t figure out how to get it to capitalize the 1st letter of each word, for addresses containing multiple names such as Rancho Santa Margarita.
Upper(left(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY,1))+lower(substring(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY, 2, LEN(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY)))As ADDRESSCITY
This returns back: ‘Rancho santa margarita’; I need it to return ‘Rancho Santa Margarita’. Is this possible to do at the query level?

UPPER Case Constraint
Mar 27, 2001Folks,
what script must I use, as a part of CREATE TABLE, to automatically convert characters to UPPER case on insert?
I wrote <CHECK (country = UPPER (country)> in the CREATE TABLE, which was wrong,
because the values were still in the lower case.
The sample script is:
CREATE TABLE address
(street varchar(40),
city varchar(20),
state char (2),
zip varchar (10),
country varchar (20))
When a user types "Canada", I want the inserted value be "CANADA"
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Upper Case Separation
Mar 26, 2008I am new to SQL and, unfortunately, actually do my work in Access 2003, but I have a question.
This is an example of what the data I am working with looks like:
AALADIN
AA-TACH EH65X, EH65V (V-Twin)
AA-TACH w/Robin 20 & 20.5 h.p. OHV
AA-TACH w/Wisc.-Robin EY21
ABI CONTRACTOR w/Honda 20 h.p. (V-Twin)
The all caps text strings at the beginning of the field need to end up in a separate field than the mixed strings, and the mixed strings need to stay together. The field length varies, as do the lengths of the all caps text strings. There are a lot of records, so I would be interested to know if there was a way to proceed without manually editing each line.

Finding Lower Case Data From Table
Jun 17, 2003Hi,
My database is case insensitive. However, the application is case sensitive for the data in the table.
I need to find out the data from the table where the data is stored in lower case.
Here is the sample data:
Table: inv_manager
column: sku varchar(5)
Data: 1134X
1135x
1123a
b145Y
I just need query to return row 2, 3, 4.
Here is my query:
select sku from inv_manager where sku like lower('%[a-z]%')
The problem is it returns all the rows from the table including first one.
How can I return just the data with lower case ?
Thanks

I have a problem. I need to rename all columns of a database to uppercase. Since SQL SERVER 2005 does not support changing system tables is there a smooth way to do this? Has anyone ideas for a script? point me to the right direction.
I have found the stored procedure sp_rename which could be useful (or would it be better to alter the tables)...
So any help would be appriciated very much...

Force Fields Upper-case
May 21, 2007Almost all of our character fields are stored in upper-case. Is there an easy way to force SQL Server char and varchar fields to upper-case? Something I can do in SQL Server instead of in the client? It needs to apply to any new records.
There are some exceptions (email addresses for one). I don't mind going through each field and changing something.
Thanks!

Can SAP BI Connect To SQL Server 2005 And Read Tables And Columns NOT In Upper Case?
Apr 25, 2008An IBM Global Services consultant is telling my client that in order to have SAP BI read any data from any other application supported by SQL Server 2005, that all tables and fields MUST be in UPPER CASE. This would mean that SAP BI could not read ANY data from AdventureWorks (which everyone needs ) but more importantly from 95% of applications written and stored on SQL Server. I find this to be ludicrious, frankly, but don't know how to find out if it is true. Anyone?

Convert Text Pulled From SQL Databse To UPPER And Lower, Etc
Aug 29, 2006I'm still haven't resolved the issue with displaying information from a SQL database. The text I'm displaying is in ALL CAPS in the SQL database, and I'm trying to convert it so that when I display it in gridview, The First Letter Of Each Word Is Capitalized, as apposed to ALL CAPS. I've tried the text-transform feature of CSS, but I noticed in a SQL book there are LOWER() & UPPER() string functions. The ideal thing to do then, would be to do some select statement that converts all the incoming text to lowercase, then use the CSS text-transform: capitalize , to convert the first letter of each word to caps. Basically, I need a select statement or something that converts my sql material to lowercase. Thanks.

Case Conversion
Aug 24, 1999background: The application is case sensitive and so SQL server has been set up with case-sensitive sort order.
Initially, users were using mixed case in several fields but now they are asking to have everything lower-cased. We can change the application to only allow lower-case entry for these fields from this point forward.
My question is what to do with the previously created records. Would anybody know of a way to run a case conversion routine on all the existing records in the DB?
Thanks in advance
Case Conversion With SQL Or Stored Proc
Dec 29, 2006Hi experts,
I m new in SQL stuff. I have to work out a fucntion with ASP.net for CSV import to the DB in MSSQL.
I would like to know for Stored Proc, is there any way that I can do the case conversion?
e.g
the Full_Name read from CSV file: Lennon, John
Then for the family name I need to convert into uppercase so the converted one: LENNON, John
Is there any way I can check those words before the comma? The CSV file is delimited with | instead of , ?
Can I use substring for that? And also do you have any online tutorial for Stored Procedure recommended? Thanks a lot!!!
Cheers,

Proper Case Conversion For Celtic Names

I'd like to know how I can adapt this function so it will convert a scottish/irish surname (McDonald or O'Shea) when there is only the surname in the column
This is what I'd been using for multiple words (Ronald McDonald). But it won't work on just Mcdonald. I'm sure it's just a simple tweak, but it all looks Punjabi to me?

View 2 Replies View RelatedCase Insensitivity Is On Server Wide: Tables Render Case Sensative...
Jan 6, 2005Hello:
I have created an SQL server table in the past on a server that was all case sensative. Over time I found out that switching to a server that is not case sensative still caused my data to become case sensative. I read an article that said you should rebuild your master database then re-create your tables. So after rebuilding the master database, a basic restore would not be sufficient? I would have to go and manually re-create every single table again?
Any suggestions?

Transact SQL -- How Do I Case &>?
Dec 8, 2005Hello, I am having some transact SQL problems.
ALLOWED:
Column1,
CASE FOO
WHEN 1 THEN 'Hello'
ELSE 'Goodbye'
END as MyValue,
Column2
NOT ALLOWED:
Column1,
CASE FOO
WHEN > 1 THEN 'Hello'
ELSE 'Goodbye'
END as MyValue,
Column2
The problem seems to be the > symbol. Apparantly the case statement is only for equality checks, and nothing else.
So, what can I do to fix this? I have these kinds of comparisons all over.
