Using TEXT Data Type With Carriage Return
Jul 29, 2007
Hi,
I'm using quite odd combination of technology for my project, I'm using PHP and MSSQL 2000, at one certain page, I want to insert to a table where one of the column is TEXT data type, and I want to get the value from the TEXTAREA at the page, of course, with carriage return captured, I manage to get it done in MySQL, where it automatically store the carriage return keyed in by user at the TEXTAREA, while for MSSQL I no luck in finding solution for this, is there any settings I can set or I need to convert the carriage return keystroke to HTML tag at my PHP?
Thanks

how can i insert a carriage return when i update the field?
say i want to put the following inside a field:
firstline
secondline
how can i update/insert a column to have a return carriage inside it?
UPDATE table SET column = 'firstline secondline'
the reason i want this is because when using a program (Solomon, by microsoft, purchasing software) to grab a field out of the database and when it displays that field in the programs textbox, i want it to be displayed on two separate lines
i tried doing
UPDATE table SET column = 'firstline' + char(13) 'secondline'
but when in the solomon program, it displays an ascii character between firstline and secondline like: firstline||secondline
thanks

Hi All,
I am trying to print 10 values in a single cell in a text box.....
To make it readable I put carriage returns and line feeds into the boxes.
These rendered ok in visual studio but did not render ok in explorer....no carriage return or line feed.
This is what I added...
=Fields!segment_sdesc_00.Value & chr(10) & chr(13)
Can anyone advise me as to what is wrong with this? There must be a way to put a cr/lf or newline into a report in a text box.....
Thanks in Advance

I am unable to get FTS working where the column to be searched is type varchar(MAX) or Text. I can get this to work if my column to be indexed is some statically assigned array size such as varchar(1000).
For instance this works, and will return all applicable results.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestHtml](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[PageText] [varchar](1000) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_TestHtml] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
SELECT * FROM TestHTML WHERE Contains(PageText, @searchterm);
And this does not. It returns zero results what so ever.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestHtml](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[PageText] [varchar](MAX) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_TestHtml] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
SELECT * FROM TestHTML WHERE Contains(PageText, @searchterm);
Could someone please tell me what I need to do to enable FTS on varchar(MAX) or Text columns?

Hi,
for some AP issue, the file I upload must be without the line feed/carriage return in the last line.
for example:
original fixed-length file (exported from SSIS)
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
4 <-- with line feed/carriage return in the last line
The file format that AP request. The file only has 3 records, so it should end in the third line.
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
Should I use script component to do it ? I am new for VB . Anyone would help me ?
Thank you all.

I am trying to use FOR XML under SQL Server 2014 to write out a large XML data set. I want it to look like
<CVS_Member_Add_Change>
<RecordType>3</RecordType>
<Carrier>1266</Carrier>
<MultiBirthCode>0000000</MultiBirthCode>
<MemberType></MemberType>
[Code] ....
That's how it looks when you click on the results of a small subset of the query. Just what I want. Unfortunately when you try to right click and save it you get
<dataroot><CVS_Member_Add_Change><RecordType>3</RecordType><Carrier>1266</Carrier<MultiBirthCode>0000000</MultiBirthCode><MemberType></MemberType<LanguageCode>1</LanguageCode><DURFlag></DURFlag><DURKey></DURKey><SocialSecurityNumber>000000000</SocialSecurityNumber</CVS_Member_Add_Change>
Everything being on one line blows up the translator application that reads the data.
The FOR XML statement copied out of the query is below.
FOR XML RAW ('CVS_Member_Add_Change'), ROOT('dataroot'), ELEMENTS
GO
Is there a way in the T-SQL to force it to break lines neatly?
Is there a way to force it to a specific file name or directory?

I have a field that is currently stored as the data type nvarchar(10), and all of the data in this field is in the format mm/dd/yyyy or NULL. I want to convert this field to the smalldatetime data type. Is this possible?
I've tried to use cast in the following way, (rsbirthday is the field name, panelists is the table), but to no avail.
SELECT rsbirthday CAST(rsbirthday AS smalldatetime)
FROM panelists
the error returned is "incorrect syntax near 'rsbirthday'.
I'm rather new to all things SQL, so I only have the vaguest idea of what I'm actually doing.
Thanks for the help!

I am using BCP and one of the tables in my SQL contains a column of type nvarchar(500) - whose data are actually email messages such as:
Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 11:03 PM
To: Kathy Shouner
Cc: Brent Ford; William Dew
Subject: RE: Revision of presentation schedule
I support the recommended revisions.
When I open the datafile, it spans 6 separate lines - probably ending in carriage returns (not sure how to confirm this). Hence, I am having a problem importing it to my table. When I query the database, it appears as one line under that column - which is the way it should be.
My BCP command is something like this:
BCP "select email_msg, email_id from emails" QUERYOUT "c:email.txt" -c -T -S sunny.erwin.com
I experimented with -w, -n, -N already but still am failing to get the proper output.
Please help... Thanks in advance.

How do I enable SQL Management Studio to allow me to directly copy text with carriage returns into a table?
I know that I can use the CHAR(13) statement when using T-SQL insert/update statements ('some text' + char(13) + 'some more text').
However when I copy text with carriage returns directly into a table column by right clicking the table, opening the table and editing the row directly, all text after the first carriage return vanishes. Only the text before the first carriage return is committed.
Please help.

When I make a call to a stored procedure to update a record, the update does not happen. No error is thrown, there are just no rows updated. When I look at SQL Server Profiler, this is what I see:
exec TTN_Update_RecurringIssueVehicle @RecurringIssueVehicleID='00962233-6EC3-42CE-ABBD-1851F1176D63',@RecurringIssueID='66FE821A-9881-4368-B975-5B04975C5E16',@RecurringIssueProblemID='ABED20CD-CB37-4491-903F-553555EEE47C',@MarketID=1,@VehicleNumber=268,@AddedDate=N'12/14/2006 3:30:00 PM',@AddedBy=12,@ResolvedDate=N'12/15/2006 10:19:45 AM',@ResolvedBy=12
It seems to be putting a carriage return in the middle of one of my date parameter values, and also seems to be putting those values in double quotes. If I try to run this in SQL Management Studio, it throws an error. If I take out the carriage return, and fix the quotes, it succeeds. Here is my VB.Net code:
<DataObjectMethod(DataObjectMethodType.Update)> _
Public Function Update_RecurringIssueVehicle( _
ByVal RecurringIssueVehicleID As Guid, _
ByVal RecurringIssueID As Guid, _
ByVal RecurringIssueProblemID As Guid, _
ByVal MarketID As Integer, _
ByVal VehicleNumber As Integer, _
ByVal AddedDate As DateTime, _
ByVal AddedBy As Integer, _
ByVal ResolvedDate As DateTime, _
ByVal ResolvedBy As Integer) As Integer
dbCmd.CommandText = "TTN_Update_RecurringIssueVehicle"
dbCmd.Parameters.Clear()
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RecurringIssueVehicleID", RecurringIssueVehicleID)
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RecurringIssueID", RecurringIssueID)
If RecurringIssueProblemID <> Guid.Empty Then dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RecurringIssueProblemID", RecurringIssueProblemID)
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MarketID", MarketID)
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@VehicleNumber", VehicleNumber)
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@AddedDate", AddedDate.ToString())
dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@AddedBy", AddedBy)
If ResolvedDate <> DateTime.MinValue Then dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ResolvedDate", ResolvedDate.ToString())
If ResolvedBy <> -1 Then dbCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ResolvedBy", ResolvedBy)
Dim retVal As New SqlParameter("@RetVal", SqlDbType.Int)
retVal.Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue
dbConn.Open()
dbCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
dbConn.Close()
Return CInt(retVal.Value)
End Function
Any ideas are greatly appreciated - thanks

Hi there, I hope you can help us.
We're using this statement to import some values into a database:
SQLStatement = "INSERT MyTable (ID, VALUE) VALUES ('" & IDString & "', '" & VALUEString & "')"
The problem is that the strings might contain carriage returns/line feeds, i.e.
VALUEString = "Line 1." & vbCrLf & "Line 2."
It only imports up until the first vbCrLf. We have tried replacing vbCrLf with "", but this doesn't work either. What is the correct format for inserting a value that contains new line characters?
Thanks for your time,
Lasse.

I'm trying to create a flat file that has a header like:
/INST=-1
/DELIMITER=","
/FIELDS=FIELD1,FIELD2,FIELD3,FIELD4
/LOCATION=100
data,data,data,data
data,data,data,data
where 'data' represents the data written out by the data flow process to the flat file destination. This actually turns out quite nice except that when I place the lines that start with '/' in the header box for the flat file destination the carriage return doesn't get written correctly after each line and I end up with an unrecognized character when I open the file in a simple app like notepad. I've tried using different encodings for the flat file connection, but to no avail. It is also interesting to note that when I close the package and reopen it the flat file destination editor UI also doesn't recognize the carriage returns and places a box in there place.
Below is a copy of the the property as it is written in the package xml:
<property id="92" name="Header" dataType="System.String" state="default" isArray="false" description="Specifies the text to write to the destination file before any data is written." typeConverter="" UITypeEditor="" containsID="false" expressionType="Notify">/INST=-1
/DELIMITER=","
/FIELDS=FIELD1,FIELD2,FIELD3,FIELD4
/LOCATION=100</property>
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
As you can see, I'm totally new at Sql Server.
I have a problem, I store text into a nvarchar field (could be a 200 or 20,000 characters long string), inside the text there are several carriage returns which I would like to preserve to later presentation, but when retreiving the data from sql server I got the "cr" as "?", also I opened the database from Sql Managment and all cr's were saved as "?".
What can I do to preserve the cr inside each field ?
Thanks in advance.
