Unable To Retrieve Data When Using Greek Characters In Statement
Apr 26, 2007
Hi,
I'm trying to do retrieve some data from a table where the content is
in Greek, however, the
query is not working. It's a very simple statement, but I'm missing
something.
Here is the table...
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].
[REPORT_LOCALE]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[REPORT_LOCALE]
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[REPORT_LOCALE] (
[XL_REPORT_ID] [int] NULL ,
[TEXT_NAME] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
NULL ,
[LOCALE] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
The first statment shows me a number of rows. I copied the content of
the Text_Name column and paste
it into QA to form the second statement. However, the second statement
returns no data.
SELECT * FROM Report_Locale
SELECT * FROM Report_Locale WHERE Text_Name = 'Λογ.Διαχ. – Τ?.-*?ουπ.-
Διαφ.'
Hopefully the Greek characters will display properly within this post,
but the idea is basically to take the Greek text and build that into a
query. I can do the remainder later once I understand why this does
not work as I expect. I realise my expectation is based on doing
things in English so I need to understand the differences. We've done
this for various other languages using other character sets, which is
why I am puzzled.
Any pointers ?
Thanks
Ryan

Hi,
I have a sql db with a table in which I store Greek text. I have changed the collation name of the columns which keep the Greek to "Greek_AI_AS" and the datatype of these columns are nvarchar or ntext.
However whenever I tried to add text from a web form the Greek characters does not show correctly and I get "?????".
The collation name of the sql db is Latin1_Generala_CP1_CI_AS. Do u think there is a collation conflict or the column collation overides the db one? Or there is something else which I don't know?
P.S. I have set the correct Codepage and response.CharSet for Greek language.
Any ideas would by valuable.
Thanks

I am using an external application which stores data to this database and I am able to write Greek characters in a field but after i save the record this text is transformed to many ???????. What could be the problem? Thanks in advance

I have a varchar field which contains some Greek characters (α, β, γ, etc...) among the regular Latin characters. I need to replace these characters with a word (alpha, beta, gamma etc...). When I try to do this, I find that it is also replacing some of the Latin characters.
DECLARE @Letters TABLE (Letter NVARCHAR(10))
INSERT INTO @Letters VALUES ('a'), ('A'), ('b'), ('B'), ('α')
SELECTLetter, REPLACE(Letter,'α','alpha')
FROM@Letters
In this case, the "α" is being replaced, but so are "a" and "A".
I have tried changing the datatype from varchar to nvarchar and also changing the collation.

let's say I have a table named "myTable" in a SQL database:
UniqueID
FirstName
FamilyName
1
Elizabeth
Moore
2
Chris
Lee
2
Robert
McDonald's
I want to create a SQL query should contain a parameter for example:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE UniqueID = @TextBox OR FirstName = @TextBox OR FamilyName = @TextBox,
and when I type in my TextBox the ' * ' character, it should retrieve the whole table...
hope anybody understood, will be happy to explain more.

I'm trying to figure this out
I have a store procedure that return the userId if a user exists in my table, return 0 otherwise
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Create Procedure spUpdatePasswordByUserId
@userName varchar(20),
@password varchar(20)
AS
Begin
Declare @userId int
Select @userId = (Select userId from userInfo Where userName = @userName and password = @password)
if (@userId > 0)
return @userId
else
return 0
------------------------------------------------------------------
I create a function called UpdatePasswordByUserId in my dataset with the above stored procedure that returns a scalar value. When I preview the data from the table adapter in my dataset, it spits out the right value.
But when I call this UpdatepasswordByUserId from an asp.net page, it returns null/blank/0
passport.UserInfoTableAdapters oUserInfo = new UserInfoTableAdapters();
Response.Write("userId: " + oUserInfo.UpdatePasswordByUserId(txtUserName.text, txtPassword.text) );
Do you guys have any idea why?

I came across a weird issue this morning while using Between operator am unable to retrieve data that starts with second option,
Example am using
select * from USER where vendor between 'N' and 'V'
Here I expect to get all the records that has vendor name starting with N,O,P,......U,V
But to my surprise i found am just getting N,O ......,U. I am unable to retrieve vendors start with 'V'
when i use between 'N' and 'W' it shows with 'V' also........but not showing vendors with 'W'
So I doubt whether between is considering second option 'V' or not.

Hi,
I am trying to set up a data flow task. The source is "SQL Command" which is
a stored procedure. The proc has a few temp tables that it outputs the final
resultset from. When I hit preview in the ole db source editor, I see the
right output. When I select the "Columns" tab on the right, the "Available
External Column List" is empty. Why don't the column names appear? What is
the work around to get the column mappings to work b/w source and
destination in this scenario.
In DTS previously, you could "fool" the package by first compiling the
stored procedure with hardcoded column names and dummy values, creating and
saving the package and finally changing the procedure back to the actual
output. As long as the columns remained the same, all would work.
Thats not working for me in SSIS.
Thanks in advance.
Asim.

Hi Mates,
I am unable to fetch data from Source which is CSV file whose sample contents are given below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Fiscal year";"Posting period";"Company Code";"Functional area";"Profit Center";"Business area";"Group Account";"Posting Level";"Document Type";"Accounting Principle";"Cost Pool";"Financial Owner";"Period Value GC"

"2006";"12";"AR00";"A107";"P1131";"9600";"3410";"10";"18";"GAAP";"#";"#";"$ 0.00"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The error message that comes while I preview the source data:
Error:
"The Preview sample contains embedded text qualifiers. The flat file parser doesnot support embedding text qualifiers in data. Parsing columns that contain data with text qualifiers will fail at runtime"
Is there any alternative to remove these text qualifiers from the file. Do we have any utility that can convert these files into text qualifier free CSV file?

I am trying to setup custom forms authentication in Reporting Services.
I have followed the UFAIRS sample. I have the site running, reporting services running, and I have a page where I can input my login information.
I can debug the code- and I get to this section of code:
Protected Overrides Function GetWebResponse(ByVal request As WebRequest) As WebResponse
Dim response As WebResponse = MyBase.GetWebResponse(request)
Dim cookieName As String = response.Headers("RSAuthenticationHeader")
' If the response contains an auth header, store the cookie
If Not (cookieName Is Nothing) Then
Utilities.CustomAuthCookieName = cookieName
Dim webResponse As HttpWebResponse = CType(response, HttpWebResponse)
Dim authCookie As Cookie = webResponse.Cookies(cookieName)
' If the auth cookie is null, throw an exception
If authCookie Is Nothing Then
Throw New Exception("Authorization ticket not received by LogonUser")
End If
' otherwise save it for this request
Me.AuthCookie = authCookie
' and send it to the client
Utilities.RelayCookieToClient(authCookie)
End If
Return response
Notice the line: Dim cookieName As String = response.Headers("RSAuthenticationHeader")
Basically the cookie name is null after that, and therefore it processes no further and I never get a cookie and I can never authenticate. Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong?
Also, this is on a test box, so I don't have SSL capabilities. Unless there is a way to "emulate" SSL, I pretty much don't know if this works without SSL, or if this is causing the problem. We have environments that use SSL, but I do not have access to it at the moment- I will have to do additional work to get that up and running.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

Hello
We seem to be having junk characters within our SQL server 2005 database for data related to East Asian countries. However, if we are to manually mess around within Excel we will be able to decipher these characters.
Following is a sample:

A trigger existed on the job steps table which captured any changes before and after. The insert table was limited changes to 4000 characters.
SQL Server 2012 SP2 Enterprise Edition (11.0.5058.0) on Windows Server 2008 R2
At some point a few months ago we encountered an issue where we hit a size limit of ~4000 characters on the amount of text we could enter into a Transact-SQL step of an Agent job. Attempting to create a job like this with sp_add_job will produce the error
Msg 50000, Level 16, State 10, Procedure sp_add_jobstep_internal, Line 255
String or binary data would be truncated.
Adding the job step via SSMS yields
Alter failed for JobStep 'xxx'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Additional information:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 8152)
I've checked sp_add_jobstep_internal, sp_add_jobstep and the sysjobsteps table and all references to the command field are nvarchar(max). We can run the same job creation code without error on a SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition machine and two SQL Server 2012 SP2 Developer Edition boxes. All our 2012 servers were fresh installs, not upgrades.

Hi All,
In my application on click of Delete button, actually I am not deleting the record. I am just updating the flag. But before updating the record I just want to know the dependency of the record ie. if the record I am deleting(internally updating) exists any where in the dependent tables, it should warn the user with message that it is available in the child table, so it can not be deleted. I want to check the dependency dynamically. For that I have written the following procedure. But it is updating in both cases.
CREATE proc SProc_DeleteRecord
@TableName varchar(50),
@DeleteCondition nVarchar(200)
As
Begin
Begin Transaction
Declare @DelString nvarchar(4000)
set @DelString = 'Delete from ' + @TableName + ' where ' + @DeleteCondition
execute sp_executeSql @DelString
RollBack Transaction --because i donot want to delete the record in any case
If @@Error <> 0
Begin
select '1'
End
Else
Begin
Declare @SQLString nvarchar(4000)
set @SQLString = 'Update ' + @TableName + ' set DeletedFlag=1 where ' + @DeleteCondition
execute sp_executeSql @SQLString
select '0'
End
End
Thanks & Regards

Hello, I am getting very frustrated! I have got a Foreach loop container which I am processing files within a folder. I have a flatfile connection manager which I have set up using a test file and have updated the expressions attribute to be the package variable I set up in the collection for the loop container however everytime I run it I get the error: 0xC0202094 cannot retrieve the column information from the flatfile connection manager. I can only guess that it is either the variable being passed to the connection manager or the way I set up the connection manager. When I msgbox the variable in a script component before the dataflow step, the variable for the file seems fine. Any suggestions are REALLY appreciated.
Yours

How many characters can be used in a query?
Say I have a query that inserts into a varchar(4000). I need to do ~100 of them. Can all this data be passed at once. Or would I need to break it up?
Thoughts?
