Hello,
I have a problem....
In a table i have some descriptions and i notice that at least one is as follow:
"some product 'delay' to every"
now if i try to make a insert in another table with that description i get an error...
because of the char '
is there any way to make this insert?
the database is MSSQL 2000
Say I have a column called 'NAME' in a table called 'CLIENT' and the values in NAME are Surnames or company names like:
NAME
----------------------
1-FOR-ALL
A.B. SMITH (TOOLS LTD)
BROWN
THOMSON
VW CAR SALES
I want my select to return the first 3 characters, excluding special characters (only characters between 1 and z).
In example, the following would be returned for the data above:
NAME
----------------------
1FO
ABS
BRO
THO
VWC

Dears,
im using a rss script and the rs.exe tool to deploy about 100 reports to several reporting server. The problem now is, that a lot of the reports a named with special german chars like Ö Ä Ü.
I am using the folowing function:
Code Snippet
rs.CreateReport(reportName, parPath, True, definition, props)
If I deploy a report name "Verträge" (=contracts), i will get an error that the report definition could not be found. But after that the report i viewable in the report server but could not be rendered.

We had a sql 2000 db that had full text implemented on it. We upgrade that server to a 2005 server and now the full text searches that once worked don't. Most do work just the ones with ; or special characters in the query string don't work.
Anyone have the same behavior and how to get it to wrok again?
thanks
I have some sql below..
SELECT
t.Doctor, t.LedgerAmount, t.TransactionDate,
ISNULL(lg.LedgerGrpDesc, 'No Sales Group') AS LedgerGroup
FROM
Transactions t
LEFT OUTER JOIN LedgerGroups lg ON t.LedgerDescription = lg.dbLedgerDesc
[Code] .....
My problem is that the data in t.LedgerDescription sometimes now has either leading/trailing white space or more likely special chars so the join against lg.dbLedgerDesc doesn't always work.
I can't change the source of the data to strip out special chars/white space so am stuck on how to deal with it.
I tried using LTRIM & RTRIM in the where clause but this doesn't seem to have had any effect...
LEFT OUTER JOIN LedgerGroups lg ON LTRIM(RTRIM(t.LedgerDescription)) = lg.dbLedgerDesc
Hi All
I have loaded some data to the application using flat files
which has non english chars.
all the columns in the database are NVARCHAR type.
but in db and in application UI, the non english chars are being diplayed as junk chars. ???121
The application supports UTF-8 format
is there any setting at db level to be modified to display the non english char set as is.
Thanks
Hi,
I am very new to using SSIS.
Trying to import data from MS Access 2000.
I receive the error "
[OLE DB Destination [1907]] Warning: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column "GENDER" with a length of 255 to database column "GENDER" with a length of 2. " on the source flow.
I have done some googling and came up with this post: http://torontosql.dotnetnuke-portal.com/Default.aspx?tabid=32233 which I thought may help, but it does not.
The query against the access datasource features the column: iif([sex]=1, 'm', 'f'). I tried using left(..., 2) as well, but SSIS is determind to treat the field as 255 characters for some reason.
I don't even particualrly care that the field is 255 chars and the sources is only two, I just want the data in! I have other fields coming up with similar error.
Can someone please advise?
PS, what is th significance of the "External Columns" Vs "Output Columns" on the Input and Output Properties tab in Advanced Editor?
I am really struggling with SSIS, it is not as intuitive as DTS.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. tblRooms pkRoomID fkReservationID tblDates pkDateID fkReservationID tblReservation pkReservationID fkRoomID fkDateID
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi guys,
My challenge is really 3 problems in 1.
I have Table1 and Table2 which are inner joined with an ID.
Each record in Table1 may have up to two corresponding values in Table2, which are Type and Name.
req1- I want to select Table2.Name twice (or more), with each selection conditioned on a specific Type.
req2- I also want all information pertaining to the same ID to be returned in each row
req3- I want all IDs to be returned, even if Table2.Name are empty for Type1 and/or Type2.
So, the source tables look something like this:
Table1.ID | ……
-----------------------
ID001
ID002
ID003
ID004
Table2.ID | Table2.Type | Table2.Name
--------------------------------------------------------
ID001 | Type1 | NameA
ID001 | Type2 | NameB
ID002 | Type1 | NameC
ID003 | Type2 | NameD
Ideally, my results should look like this:
Table1.ID | Table2.Name (Type=1) | Table2.Name (Type=2)
----------------------------------------------------------
ID1 | NameA for Type1 | NameB for Type2
ID2 | NameC for Type1 | (empty)
ID3 | (empty) | NameD for Type2
ID4 | (empty) | (empty)
Right now, I can only get Table2.Name to display once, and it won’t return the empty values, even with outer joins. The structure that I’m using is:
SELECT …
FROM …
WHERE Table2.Name IN
(SELECT Table2.Name
FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 …
WHERE Table2.Name = ‘Type1’)
Sorry the abstractness, but this is the simplest way for me to express the problem.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks!
Hey Swynkers,
I've got a tricky one. I'm trying to do a SELECT statement to return all of our email fields that include the Newline character, or Char(13). I've tried all of the following with no result:
WHERE Email like "%Char(13)%"
WHERE charindex(Char(13), @Email) > 0
WHERE patindex(@NewLine, @Email) > 0
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

I have such a procedure, which returnes me rows with ID-s.
Then in my asp.net page I make from that Id-s a string like

I have a Managers table in my SQL DB and it has a ManagerID, MgrName and MgrPhoto field base...
I can code a form with a select button that displays a drop down with the managers in it as choices, but am a little confused as to how I would make the PHOTO (MgrPhoto) change to the corresponding ManagerID that is selected from that option drop down since the SELECT CODE in the form only queries the ManagerID / MgrName combo for the choice.. The photo is below that drop down box and how to make it change to whatever photo is assigned to the selected ManagerID / MgrName ?
Here is the form code with query :
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="updatemanagerphoto.php" method="POST">
<select name="ManagerID" id="manager" style="width:400px" class="form_textbox">
<?
$db_connect= mysql_connect($db_host, $db_username, $db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_name, $db_connect) || die(mysql_error());
$sql_query= "SELECT * FROM Managers ORDER BY MgrName ASC";

But I expect to get the structure like, care_nbr, cust_nbr,legal_name, address_type=physical address, addr_line_1, addr_line_2, address_type-primary address, ddr_line_1, addr_line_2. That means I only need primary and physical address, and expect them to show in a row to each care_nbr. How to perform that?

It seems when I run the query with the set staticts IO on then statistic reports back with the 'work table', and the query takes 30+ sec. if the worktable is ommited(whatever the reason?) the query take less 1 sec.
Here is my take, I believe work table is created in tempdb...and if not then whole query is using the cached page, am I right?
if I am right then the theory is, if I increase the (via sp_configure) server min memory setting and min query memory, the query ought use the cached page and return in less 1 sec. (specially there is absolutely no one but me on the server), so far I can't make it go faster...what setting am I missing to make it run faster?
Another question is if the query can not avoid but use the tempdb, is it going to always be 30 sec+ time? why is tempdb involvement make it go so much slower?
Thanks in for you help in advance

I have an overloaded method in my data access layer that I use to load the parameters into a command object. One of these overloaded methods is as follows:
public void LoadSqlParameter(string name, string value, ParameterDirection direction){ param = new SqlParameter(); param.ParameterName = name; param.Value = value; param.Direction = direction;
param.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.VarChar;
cmd.Parameters.Add(param);}
Will using a SqlDbType of VarChar cause me any problems if the actual parameter in the stored procedure is a Char?
Am I better off leaving out the line that specifies the type?

Hi,
I have a problem with a text string which is more than 8000 chars.
I am taking this string as an input from an application.so,I cannot define a local variable as text or ntext and varchar has limitation of only 8000 char.
Can anyone help me in dealing with this situation.
Also,I cannot break the string at application level.I wish if I could solve it at db level somehow?

In a query Analyser, there is a provision to change the "Maximum characters per column 256 " to our size in advanced option.
It works ok.
We are using VisualInterdev for developing ASP's -- there
thro ADO - we are getting the rows from sql server 7.0 -- there data more than
256 characters are truncated.
How will i get the actual data ?.. where i can do the settings..?

How do you insert more than 255 characters into a text field? or am I using READTEXT and DATALENGTH incorrectly?
I am trying to concatenate two 255 varchar strings. Both do have 255 characters of data.
I want to insert the concatenated strings into a field define as a text data type.
if I try to ' insert into tempTbl(textFieldDataType) values (@text1+@text2) it appears only the @text1 is inserted.
I have been told the data is really there, but I can only read the 256 position + with READTEXT.
DECLARE @textptr varbinary(16)
select @textptr = (select TEXTPTR(textFieldDataType) from tempTbl where pktempTbl = 33)
READTEXT tempTbl.textFieldDataType @textPtr 255 10
This should have read 10 text positions after the 255th position. However, I get msg
Msg 7124, Level 16, State 1
The offset and length specified in the READTEXT command is greater than the actual data length of 255.
If I use the datalength function, it appears to confirm that @text2 was never inserted
declare @length int
select @length = (select datalength(textFieldDataTypet) from tempTbl where pktempTbl = 33)
select @length
@length is returned as 255
Hi
I am trying to get the domain name of the server running this instance of SQL server 2000 using xp_loginconfig but have been getting some very strange results. The code example below shows the problem quite nicely. Basically the output shows white space of some sort before the "/HelloWorld" in the second select.
Any ideas why? and how to get rid of it. I've tried using RTRIM() but that made no difference.
On some server instances I dont even see the "/HelloWorld" perhaps it's put in a new line char or something like that.
Thanks
