Hi,
I was trying to find numeric characters in a field of nvarchar. I looked this up in HELP.
Wildcard
Meaning
%
Any string of zero or more characters.
_
Any single character.
[ ]
Any single character within the specified range (for example, [a-f]) or set (for example, [abcdef]).
Any single character not within the specified range (for example, [^a - f]) or set (for example, [^abcdef]).
Nowhere in the examples below it in Help was it explicitly detailed that a user could do this.
In MS Access the # can be substituted for any numeric character such that I could do a WHERE clause:
WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE "####*"
After looking at the above for the [ ] wildcard, it became clear that I could subsitute [0-9] for #:
WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
using single quotes and the % wildcard instead of Access' double quotes and * wildcard.
Just putting this out there for anybody else that is new to SQL, like me.

Good Morning Db forum.
I am working on a query that I need to pull all fields that contain 3 alpha characters. for example BCB001, MCR001, CHP001 and so forth.
Is there a SQL alpha wildcard that I could use to pull all records that have the three alpha chars?
hi ,
can anyone tell me if there exists a function in SQL Server that help me determine if a variable is ALL Alphanumeric data or not by returning a 0 or 1 when condition fails or succeeds .
thank you
Hello:
Our company needs to (restore/migrate) our Alpha Nt4sp4 sql 6.5sp5a databases to an Intel hardware platform. For the time being the new intel server will be runing Nt4sp4 sql 6.5 sp5a. I understand that if we were to upgrade to sql 7 we would be able to restore the databases without any problems. However upgrading to sql 7 is not an option right now. I have tried to restore a backup from the alpha to an intel based machine, and it fails because the processor types are different.
I have already search technet, but found nothing, except upgrade to sql 7.
I am hoping someone out there could point me in the right direction.
Thank inadvance for your help, I appreciate it very much.
Cindy
please please help?
For the last couple of days i've been trying to transfer a SQL6.5 database from an Alpha platform to an Intel one.
At one point i loaded SQL7 on the Intel platform and tried to perform an upgrade (using the wizard), across the network - but it just did not want to play.
Using Veritas Backup Exec, with SQL6.5 on both machines, i've tried doing a backup of the database on the Alpha platform and then restore to the Intel Platform, but this fails stating that the processors are incompatible
Am i trying something that is impossible?
If anyone could point me in the right direction i'd be truely grateful.

Hello,
I am looking for ways to migrate Sqlserver 6.5 from Alpha to Intel plat form. The only method I heard was Database/Object transfer.
Is there any other way?
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm trying to move a database over from an Alpha to an Intel-base PC. The SQL Server database is on an Alpha server. The 2nd machine is an Intel. When I make a backup of the database from Alpha, copy over the file to the 2nd PC (Intel) and then try to restore it from the 2nd PC, it doesn't sure up on the list of restores when I click on 'Add Device'
The only other way I can get this to work successfully is with a Database Object Transfer, which takes too long (several hours) and limits me to being on site. I need to do this every few weeks so I need a better way to transfer the database over ?
Anyone have any experience with SQL Server on Alpha??

Hello,
We want to port our Nt application to Alpha system with Fx!32. Is it possible to have SQl Server on this system.
Is there any SQL server available specifically for Alpha system..? Because there are VB and VC compilers available for Alpha systems.

In SQL I need to be able to take a varchar parameter @Area and convert it to a float.
The input values for @Area I can't control. They can range from 6300 to 6,300 SqFt to 1.2 Acres .
So to convert this value to a float I basically look through the string and remove everything that isn't a number or a period. Then I would convert this value to square feet based on how large the number is.
Code:
DECLARE @k int, @Temp VarChar(25), @SqFt Float
SELECT@Temp = @Area
select @Temp
select @k = patindex('%[^0-9. ]%', @Temp)
while @k> 0
begin
select @Temp = replace(@Temp, substring(@Temp, @k, 1), '')
select @k= patindex('%[^0-9. ]%', @Temp)
end
If @Temp = ''
BEGIN
SET @Temp = '0'
END
SELECT @SqFt = Convert(Float, @Temp)
--Distinguish if it was acres or square feet
If (@SqFt > 750.00)
BEGIN
SET @SqFt = @SqFt
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @SqFt = (@SqFt * Convert(Float,43560) )
END
SELECT @SqFt
This works great except for one situation, If @Area is something like 6,300 Sq.Ft. . When I run it through the part that removes all non-numeric items and periods, I end up with 6300 .. . So to get around this I want to find the first letter in the string and then remove everything after it. Then take the result and run it through part that removes everything but the numbers and period.
However I can't find away to get the index of the alpha-numeric character and remove everything after it.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
How do I do a conditional check for the left most character if it is an alpha or number in a Derived Column Transformation? Something like
ISNUMERIC(newseq) ? "ABC" : "DEF"
Thanks
We have a table with an indesx that is varchar(7). It contains up to 5 numbers and 2 characters to denote batches. IE. 100a
105zz
1c
2
10001w
In an Access gui I need to be able to sort this field numericaly so each number shows up in its correct position. IE.
1c
2
100a
105zz
10001w
In order to accomplish this, I created a seperate field on the table named Num as varchar(5). I would like to create a trigger that updates this field any time a new batch number is entered. This way I can have my queries order by Num when returning the recordsets to the GUI.
Below is the code that I thought would work, but it is giving me an error near the keyword BEGIN after the IF(ISNUMERIC) statement. I can't seem to find an error with this code, but I thought maybe a thousand fresh sets of eyes could. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if you know of a better way to accomplish this task, please feel free to post here.
TIA,
Aaron
CREATE TRIGGER [InsertNum] ON [dbo].[IP_Batch_Table_Temp]
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @Num varchar(7)
DECLARE @Num1 CHAR(7)
DECLARE @x INT
SET @Num = (SELECT IP_Batch_Number FROM inserted)
SET @x = 1
WHILE (@x < len(@Num))
BEGIN
IF (ISNUMERIC( SUBSTRING(@Num, @x, 1) ) )
BEGIN
SET @Num1 = @Num1 + SUBSTRING(@Num, @x, 1)
END
SET @x = @x + 1
END
UPDATE IP_BATCH_TABLE_TEMP SET NUMBER = ltrim(rtrim(@Num1)) WHERE IP_BATCH_NUMBER = @Num
If I create an index on a field in SQL Server, what will be the most efficient (fastest) field type to index a field? (This field will be a "Pointer" to a child table that will contain a list of codes, and their description.)
Would a Numeric field be quicker than a VarChar field?
VarChar would make it easier for a Human to decipher the raw records. (For example, if I used a numeric the code would be 42 or 47, while the VarChar could be 'savings' or 'checking'.)
Basically I will have the following "Master" table: FieldType
---------
IDInt
NameVarChar
StatusInt -or- VarChar
Customer_TypeInt -or- VarChar
If Customer_Type is a code that can be looked up in another table, and I index that field, would I want the "Code" to be an Int or VarChar?
SQL: Select *
From Master
Where Customer_Type = <42> or <'savings'>
My Where clause would depend on the field type.
Thank you, Bryan
HI,
Thanks in advance for taking your time to read this post.
I am trying to write a SQL query using MS SQL 2005 that will read the value of a field and tell if it is alpha or numeric. I have tried the following but it does not work:
select field1 from table1 where left(field1,2)='[0-9]'
select field1 from table1 where isnumber(left(field1,2) tried with a =1 at the end and without and =1 at the end
the goal is to read through a field and format it so if a field looks like this 12xxx111xx I can change it to look like 12-xxx-111-xx.
Any help is greatly apprecaited
Hi I am trying to strip out any non-alpha characters from a field.
i.e. Field = ABC"_IT8*$ should return: ABCIT8
I am writing a loop to do this for all values of a field. The script runs, but hangs....please could somebody advise on the code below...:
I run the script but it doesn't seem to finish. Can anybody see any issues with the code:
DECLARE @Index SMALLINT,
@MATCH_Supplier_name varchar(500),
@Counter numeric,
@Max numeric
-- @sqlstring varchar(500)
SET @Counter = 1
SET @Max = (SELECT Max(DTect_Supplier_SRN) FROM SUPPLIER_TABLE_TEST)
WHILE @Counter <@Max
BEGIN
SET @MATCH_Supplier_name = (SELECT Match_Supplier_Name FROM SUPPLIER_TABLE_TEST WHERE @Counter = DTect_Supplier_SRN)
SET @Index = LEN(@MATCH_Supplier_name)
WHILE @Index > = 1
SET @MATCH_Supplier_name = CASE
WHEN SUBSTRING(@MATCH_Supplier_name, @Index, 1) LIKE '[a-zA-Z]' TH EN SUBSTRING(@MATCH_Supplier_name, @Index, 1)
WHEN SUBSTRING(@MATCH_Supplier_name, @Index, 1) LIKE '[0-9]' THEN SUBSTRING(@MATCH_Supplier_name, @Index, 1)
ELSE ''
END + @MATCH_Supplier_name
SET @Index = @Index - 1
--PRINT @MATCH_Supplier_name
SET @Counter = @Counter + 1
END
Hi,
I have a little bit of a problem I cannot seem to figure it out. Is it possible to write a Select statement that contains a WHERE column_name > desired_numeric_value
The tricky part it that the column is of CHAR type and can contain numeric grades ranging from 0-100 or the letter I for Incomplete.
My SQL was working perfect when this column contained only numbers as soon as a record with I was added I get the following error:
Character to numeric conversion error
This report will be used to find students who have failing grades. Thanks for any help!
How to remove non alpha chars from a column ?
I googled the following code
Create Function [dbo].[RemoveNonAlphaCharacters](@Temp VarChar(1000))
Returns VarChar(1000)
AS
Begin
[code]....
Hello,
I need to strip out all alpha chars and spaces in a given field and return only the numbers.
I've tried =CInt(Fields!Info.Value) and get an unexplained error. If the data was formatted consitantly I could simply do a RTrim or Right, but the number strings are not the same, some have spaces as in phone numbers (1 800 555 1212) or don't have a leading 1. Most instances are correct for my purpose (8005551212).
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE: Using the Replace function =Replace(Fields!Info.Value, " ","") gets me almost there. Now I should be able to use a Right, 10 function to return my desired value. Is it possible to combine these two funtions together?
Hi,
We are using VB 6.0 as frontend and SQL server 7.0 as backend. We want to store some special charcters like Alpha, Gamma, etc in the database. We tried different ways but could not find the solution.
Could you please help on this.
Thanks,
Arun.

Hi,
I'm hoping there is an easy way to deal with this....
I have a UNION query. The first SELECT in the UNION I want sorted by an int, the the second SELECT in the union (same column) I want sorted by a char.
Here's a really basic sample of what I mean:
select dummy_data.test from
(select cast(1 as char) as test
union
select cast(11 as char) as test
union
select cast(2 as char) as test
union
select 'Alpha' as test
union
select 'Bravo' as test) dummy_data
order by test asc
..obviously, I need to cast the INT columns as chars or the UNIONs do not work.
However, the sort will sort the numbers alpha numerically: 1,11,2
(I'm looking for 1,2,11)
Any thoughts?
david.

i'm using the Enterpirse library logger to write logs into a database.
When choosing connection string i choose the database i want in the "connection properties" dialog box and
push 'Test connection' button.
everything goes well.
then i open the SQL Server Management studio express and connect to the databse to check some things,
from that point on , when i push the 'Test Connection' button in the Enterprise library i get the error:
"cannot open user default database. Login failed. login failed for user My'server/MyuserName'"
even when i close the sql server manager , it is still stuck - the connection test doesn't work anymore....
it only work when i restart the computer.
why ?

I would like to know if there is a way to find out who changed a users roles/access WITHOUT using the audit function. For example, if a user account was created and given SA access then changed to read only, how can I find out who made that change? I tried searching for an answer, but kept getting no results. I'm thinking this may tie into the sys.sysusers view?

I have several reports for users to view on our Intranet. After installation of SQL 2005 SP2 patch, I cannot delete user or user's authority from Report in Properties Tab. An error message was shown on the status bar. It indicated that JavaScript Error: 'Return' statement outside of function. Seems something wrong with the 'Delete' funciton in SQL 2005 after update. The other functions worked fine. Could you point me out how to fix it or need to install any updates / hotfix. Thanks a lot!

Hi, I'm new to SQL Express 2005.
I found information regarding : "Cannot open user default database. Login failed."on this forum but I think that in my case it's a bit different issue.
I have a website (ASP.NET 2.0) accessing DB, in the mean time Windows Service tries to update some data in the same DB (Service runs as NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM). The second connection is rejected: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user ....".
Problem occurs only when both: service and website are running at the same time. So service and website are running without problems when they are connecting DB exclusively.
My connection string is:
"Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="|DataDirectory|spider-lab.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I would be grateful if you can help me
Hi,
I have a copy of VS2005 and i have installed the Microsoft SQL Server Developer Edition
I am trying to do my first connection using ASP.net (yay for me...) and it has failed...with this error..Login failed for user 'testuser'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
can someone please point out why? yes i know that the error seems pretty straight forward but how do i fix it? like how do i make the user a trusted server connection? where do i do it? and what are the steps? the user is an administrator and by rights should have all access to everything....
connection string
SqlConnection MySQLConnection; MySQLConnection = new SqlConnection("server=cmptrname\databsename;uid=testuser;password=password;database=mytest");
btw while your reading do you have any examples of opening a db with the connection string in the web.config file? because i get some error "connection string has not been initialised" using the
system.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get
i though i would stick to the top code first before i tackled the web config error first....
Thanks heaps

In IIS, is there a problem with having the parent level anonymous and website level windows auth?
