We have a text field which is being written to from a java app through JDBC-ODBC. But the data seems to be trucated in the DB. How do we store all the data in this field (the text being stored can be quite large) without it being truncated?
View 1 RepliesHello all,
started working on a website in ASP that use mssql, i am trying to store large ammount of text, for now its just 10kk letters, the data type is set to text in the mssql db, but when i read it back from the db, i only get 7.7k letters, i know its not an ASP problem cause i print the var holding the content before storing it in the db.
my question is, is there a way to change the text length limit in mssql, or use another data type?
Thanks,
Gilad Darshan
EDIT: forgot its saving the html source with the style and not only the words. fixed to the right amount of letters
Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from SQL Server 2005 to flat file destination. I am using SQL Command to specify the data selection query. One of my query uses Replicate function to derive a column value. When I execute this package it fails with the error "Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "value" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page".
The reason for the problem is that, it is taking the InputColumnWidth of the flat file destination as 8000 and I specified the OutputColumnWidth as 4.
If I change the OutputColumnWidth to 8000, it is working without any error but resulting in the column width of 8000.
I tried using DerivedColumn Transformation's Type cast and DataConversion Transformation but still I am getting the same error in the respective Transformation components.
Can anyone suggest how to solve this issue.
Hello,
I have a table with the following structure for which I execute a SELECT statment against to retrieve the value of a particular NoteText field. Every time I execute the select the Notes are truncated in the returned recordset and I cannot get it to return the full value. I have tried various options, Cast/Convert, Set TEXTSIZE, etc but to no avail. Advice?
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SOOrderNote_T] (
[SOOrderNote_TSK] [int] NOT NULL ,
[SOOrder_TSK] [int] NOT NULL ,
[PXNoteTypeSK] [int] NOT NULL ,
[NoteText] [text] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
--My Select which returns truncated notes
Select NoteText From SOOrderNote_T where SOOrder_TSK = XYZ
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I am getting these errors from Report Manager. It seems that every time after the server has been idling for about 15 minutes, I would get this error message. I can click on other links and I am able to continue to use Report Manager.
Is there a timeout setting to help me resolve this or is this a bug with Report Manager? I just insitalled SP2 on the SQL Server and the Reporting Service.

This is a newbie question.
How many character does a text data type of MSSQL can contain ?
Thanks a lot.
Hi All,
In the SQL Server documentation, it is said that, the text data type will contain upto 2GB size. I assumed it will save upto 2GB. But what happened is, it saves only 255 characters all others were truncated. Is there anything wrong with me? Or the wrong is with the SQL Server?
Thanks,

visual studio 2005 what is the differences between text, varchar and nvarchar data types in ms sql server? when and when not to use them?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having a bit of a problem with this data type. It is supposed to be able to store about 2,147,483,647 characters, but when I enter more than about 1,834 characters no more charaters can be stored.
Has anyone experienced this and knows how to allow up to the 2,147,483,647 characters. Is it anything to do with another SQL Server setting or variable that needs to be changed
Thank you in advance for helping on this.

hi all
does anybody know why the fields of my db with the type "text" can store max. 64 characters? i thought fields of the type "text" could save unlimited characters. is it any wrong setting?i'm using visual web developer with sql server express
I encounter this particular error.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The data types varchar and text are incompatible in the equal to operator.
Line 21: Dim reader As SqlDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
This is the first time I'm trying out with MS SQL so I'm abit lost. I hope my code is correct and I've did a little search. I did not set "Text" in my database, I use int and varchar. Here's the affected part of my code and the database. Dim password As String = ""
Dim querystring As String = "SELECT Password FROM Member WHERE Username = @username"
'Dim conn as SqlConnection
Using conn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("mainconnect").ConnectionString)
Dim command As New SqlCommand(querystring, conn)
command.Parameters.Add("@username", SqlDbType.Text)
command.Parameters("@username").Value = txtLogin.Text
conn.Open()
Dim reader As SqlDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
While reader.Read()
password = reader("Password").ToString()
End While
reader.Close()
End Using
My database:
User_ID int(4)
Username varchar(50)

Any ideas?
Sorry if this is a dumb question.
I have a SQL Server TEXT Data Type field which stores a long description.
However when I update it from C# (ASP.net) through a textbox, it seems to cut off a part of the data if the number of characters is a big size (+- more than 577 characters).
I pass the data from then textbox to a string, but as soon as I run the Create/Update stored procedure that gets passed the string field, it seems to chop off the string.
What am I doing wrong?
Should one rather use a SQL Server string field for descriptions (+-1000 characters long) or should one use the TEXT field for this purpose?
Which one's performance is better?
I was wondering if someone could clear this up for me...
I have a table that will be used to store information about products that I will be selling on a new website. I would like to store each product in a table which will include a description of around 1000 words. I was deliberating over whether to store this chunk of text in a column with the data type set as 'text', or to store the text in a seperate txt file on the server. The search facility on the site will not be required to query this text so which would offer the best in terms of performance?
Hi,I have a problem on an old app. This application is a Help Desk, any Computer related problem (Motherboard Burn Out, Software Crash, dll) on my company will be recorded using this Help Desk application.One month ago, some programmer found a bug in this program lead to many duplicate data on database. But too late, This program has entered production stage and used for more than 2 years. This bug only happen at some condition so I found out after 2 years running (when my boss reported there are some duplicate data on "helpDesk" table).The bug is solved but helpDesk table need some "cleaning" operation. Here is structure of that table :helpDesk Table- id (primary key, integer auto increment)- reported_by (varchar 200)- problem_title (varchar 200)- problem_description (text)- date_summited (datetime)well usualy if I want to find some duplicate data I wil type :SELECT MAX(uid) AS uid, reported_by, problem_title, COUNT(uid) AS total_duplicateFROM problemsGROUP BY problem_title, problem_description,uidHAVING (COUNT(uid) > 1)But that query will not work because problem_description data type is "text" which not support "group by" statement.Any other Idea how to locate and cleaning up this duplicate data?thanks

I would like to know as to what data type is the best if I want to store MP3's and large amount of text in a SQL server.
Please let me know about the data type for both the tasks.
The table for MP3 is different than the table for large text (eg . saving somebody's resume)
Please do let me know.

Hi,

Then obviously it gives error.
Wat if i want to get all the columns from inserted table excluding the text datatype column, without giving the column names.
Thanks & Regards.

I am using a 'text' data type in a table and am having trouble adding data to it. I'm using an MS Access ADP project front end for my forms. I want to copy and paste from a text editor such as NotePad to a 'text' data type field in a form. There appears to be a limit that the field will accept which is much below the 2GB size that is allowed for the field. I get the following error message: "The text is too long to be edited." Once I get this error I can add characters from the keyboard but eventually the field will not accept any more characters. Typing or pasting does nothing. I can delete. So I've hit a limit but I'm not sure if it is in Access or SQL Server.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have a table named 'Documents' with a field named 'DocumentData' which is of the datatype Text.
I am using the following statements in a stored procedure which on execution gives errors:
DECLARE @DocData VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @OrderID INT
IF ISNULL(@DocData, '') <> ''
BEGIN
IF EXISTS( SELECT DocumentData from Documents where OrderID=@OrderID and DocumentData = @DocData)
RaisError ('Document ignored.', 16, 1)
The errors that i am getting are the following :
Msg 279, Level 16, State 3, Procedure SPDocs_LoadData, Line 41
The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression.
Msg 306, Level 16, State 1, Procedure SPDocs_LoadData, Line 41
The text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted, except when using IS NULL or LIKE operator.
Can anyone tell me how to rectify this? Basically i am trying to find out whether @DocData passed in the stored procedure matches the value in the table.
Thanks.
i need to store quite along description in the database, which in anyother database i would choose the data type 'text', however, can someone tell me why the length is set to just 16 in sql server..... i have seen a text field with far greater than 16 chars, set at length 16, so what does this length of 16 mean?????
also what is the max length of the text field?

I am trying to send a large string to my table where I have typed the field as "text". The data is truncated ( I am only sending about 5kb and it is being truncated to about 4kb). I am using SQL 2000.
My web page is classic.asp and I am sending a parameterized query to my stored procedure.
This is the relevelant code for the parameter I'm sending:
objCmd.Parameters.Append = objCmd.CreateParameter("@PostBody",adLongVarChar,adParamInput,20000,PostBody)
This is the typing in my stored proc: @PostBody text,
I can either INSERT or UPDATE using Query Analyzer and the data is NOT truncated.
Wondering if it was my parameterized query that was causing me trouble, I rewrote the code to send the SQL upfront (skipping the stored proc), and the calling the stored proc from my .asp page passing in the parameters in a string. All three ways are truncating the data.
I have isolated that the truncation is happening on the way in, not on the way out.
Because I can successfully insert/update with QA, I'm wondering if there is some IIS issue that is causing the truncation. But I don't manage our IIS server so I really don't know much about that end of things.
I have been researching this issue for two days with no luck. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

The ERP manufacturer used an image data type to store large text data fields. I am trying to move these data types from one database to another database using either Sql Queries or MS Access. I can cast them as an 8000 char varchar to read them directly but have no luck importing into these image data fields.
Access and Crystal are not able to read these fields directly.
Any suggestions? Most information about these fields has to do with loading files but I am just moving data.
Thanks,
