I'm using replace in a stored procedure to eliminate carriage returns
a user might have entered in an Access field.
The problem is that even though it seems to strip out the carriage
return I can't get rid of the "□" character.
#1 This stored procedure can be used to search and replace substring in the char, nchar, varchar and nvarchar columns in all tables in the current database. You should pass the text value to search and the text value to replace. So, to replace all char, nchar, varchar and nvarchar columns which contain the substring 'John' with the substring 'Bill', you can use the following (in comparison with the SetTbColValues stored procedure, this stored procedure replace only substring, not the entire column's value):
I have this small snippet from a stored procedure...--Let @course = XY-101SET @newUserRole =@course SELECT REPLACE(@newUserRole,'-','') SET @newUserRole =@newUserRole + 'STUD' Problem is, it doesn't seem to be replacing the dash (-) with a blank/nothing/delete.The STUD does come out attached to the string, but the dash remains...It comes back as XY-101STUDAnyone see a problem with it?Thanks,Zath
@DeptID nvarchar(10) ) As If Exists ( Select DeptName From Departments Where DeptID LIKE @DeptID ) Return 1 Else Return 0
Now I want to apply replace and upper functions to DeptID in database before saying "DeptID LIKE @DeptID".
for example the parameter is :"D&V" DeptID in database is:"d & v" //there are spaces
if I say DeptID LIKE @DeptID nothing is found because of character nonmatching So I have to apply replace & upper functions to the column DeptID in database
We require to convert a list of SPs in to SSIS packages. Most of the SPs do the below steps:
mainly our store procedure r to have compare the present date to past date , and comparing emp id between the files and also some joins. updating table r take place.
We have a legacy database that have hundreds of stored procedures.
The previous programmar uses a string like servername.databasename.dbo.tablename in the stored procedures. We now have migrated the database to a new server. The old server is either needed to be replaced by the new server name, or remove it.
I don't know why he used servername as part of the fully qualified name, we don't use linked servers. So I think better removing the servername in all the stored procedures.
I know I can do a generate script, and replace the text and then use alter procedure to recreate all the stored procedures. But since hundreds of them, is there a programmatically way to replace them?

Hi, I am trying to do this: UPDATE Users SET uniqueurl = replaceAllEmptySpacesInUniqueURL('uniqueurl') What would be the syntax. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created' returns an int value as 1 (performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created') but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie: exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1' which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc): SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example). My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert). Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

More Information for you to know: I have the "ssmsExpressDB" database in the Database Expolorer of VB 2005 Express. But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly. I try to learn "Working with SELECT Statement in a Stored Procedure" for printing the 6 rows that are selected - they are not parameterized.
Hello all, Being a relative newbie to large scale MSSQL development, I'd like to try and find out if there is some sort of utility, command or stored proc that I can use to globally change all text within my database's stored procedures.
For example... I would like to change a table name from dbo.xtable... to dbo.ytable... Is this possible?
Actually, I'd be happy with some way to search through all my stored procs to find a specific string (i.e. xtable in the example above).
I have some code that I need to run every quarter. I have many that are similar to this one so I wanted to input two parameters rather than searching and replacing the values. I have another stored procedure that's executed from this one that I will also parameter-ize. The problem I'm having is in embedding a parameter in the name of the called procedure (exec statement at the end of the code). I tried it as I'm showing and it errored. I tried googling but I couldn't find anything related to this. Maybe I just don't have the right keywords. what is the syntax?

I'm trying to replace a table name in 250 stored procedures. I found this script below which does a good job but it also finds tables with similar names. How can I limit the replacement to the exact table name? If my original table name is MyTable001, I do not want to find MyTable001_ID.

Is it possible in SQL 2005 to determine to which language symbol nchar(1) is referred?
If languages differ greatly, say, like Russian and English, can one write a function, which, under the given alphabet, can determine to what language the symbol belongs?
If the languages have a similar alphabet, one is faced with the difficulties. For example, it is needed to distinguish characters of American English from those of Australian English or of English from those of any other European language that uses almost the same alphabet. I don€™t know how to solve this problem. What can you advise?
The final task is to scan in Internet a great number of Web pages in various languages and to make up a large dictionary, where each word will be entered in its language group. It is in principle too important to select words in different languages that use the same alphabet. Initial data for word selection will enter the server in NTEXT format.
I have a stored procedure that calls a msdb stored procedure internally. I granted the login execute rights on the outer sproc but it still vomits when it tries to execute the inner. Says I don't have the privileges, which makes sense.
How can I grant permissions to a login to execute msdb.dbo.sp_update_schedule()? Or is there a way I can impersonate the sysadmin user for the call by using Execute As sysadmin some how?
Has anyone encountered cases in which a proc executed by DTS has the following behavior: 1) underperforms the same proc when executed in DTS as opposed to SQL Server Managemet Studio 2) underperforms an ad-hoc version of the same query (UPDATE) executed in SQL Server Managemet Studio
What could explain this?
Obviously,
All three scenarios are executed against the same database and hit the exact same tables and indices.
Query plans show that one step, a Clustered Index Seek, consumes most of the resources (57%) and for that the estimated rows = 1 and actual rows is 10 of 1000's time higher. (~ 23000).
The DTS execution effectively never finishes even after many hours (10+) The Stored procedure execution will finish in 6 minutes (executed after the update ad-hoc query) The Update ad-hoc query will finish in 2 minutes
I am trying to convert a single code page MS Server database into a unicode database, using the unicode data types,NCHAR, NVARCHAR, NTEXT. The problem is that in the original database, indexes and constraints have been defined on the tables whose configurations need to be changed. As a result, the ALTER TABLE command fails. Are there any other alternative solutions? Also, data from the old database needs to be preserved. The objective is to create a unicode database which keeps the old data intact as well as accepts the new data in unicode. It would be great if you could help! Thanks, Sheetal.
Hi, I selected the columns which i need in the data source itself and i need 3 columns,one will direclty go to the destination without any change/transformation and about the other two i need to do few lookups.
When i try to do lookup for One column which has the datatype in the source as nchar(3) though the date in the column is a number(like 150,160,170 and so on), my lookup table(a dimension in DW) where i want to get the actual key by looking up with this number doesnt allow me to map to the dimension in the DW, as the Dimension has this column datatype as decimal (3,0)....i tried the datatype conversion to convert the nchar to decimal but it doesnt transform i dont know why...probably i am doing some mistake...Could someone suggest how to deal with this and which transformation to use..? I'd really appreciate if someone on this forum suggest how to deal with this..?
I have a column in my extract table as nchar(3) and in the destination (the same column with diff name ) it is decimal(3,0) .....i tried to use dataconversion transformation.....i even tried to use cast/convert fn's in the SQL Command (which i use in the "Source Transformation" to get the columns from the extract table).
I tried all the ways i can and still i get the same error..:
[OLE DB Source [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E07. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80040E07 Description: "Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric.".
Can we actually do it...?? any help would be appreciated.
When I tried to insert armenian by doing the following insert into tablex (field1) values (N'testdata') it does not display in query analyzer or in the database as armenian. When I copy this to word it does not convert it.
What else am I supposed to do to get that information to redisplay the correct way and I would appreciate any tutorials or samples you can show or direct me to.
