Is there something else begger than that ?? as to be in binary !! for my image..

All, Using access 2003 frontend and sql server 2008 backend. I have an append query to insert 80000 from one table to an empty table. I get an error:
"Microsoft Office Access set 0 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and didn't add 36000 record(s) to the table due to key violations, 0 record(s) due to lock violations, and 0 record(s) due to validation rule violations."
I know this error normally comes if there are dups in a field that doesnt allow.
idp data: 55% full (Total: 4600 MB Used: 2515 MB Free: 2085 MB)
idp log: 88% full (Total: 3500 MB Used: 3073 MB Free: 427 MB)
Normally the "data" is bigger than the "log" would you say this is a problem and how can one reverse the problem?
Hi,
We just put on our main accounting (50 GB total, 8 GB largest table - GLTRAN) database on a new Windows Advanced 2003 server with 8 GBs of memory. Everything is essentially the same as the old box, aside from the fact that it's on Windows Advanced 2003 Server and it's using LUNS as the E: drive where the SQL database is kept. It runs fine for the most part, excpet this one report takes literally 20 times longer to run than on the pld box.
It's SQL Enterprise 2000 SP4 (also the same). Are there new config options for SQL when running on a 2003 server? Or is it how the OS is handling the SQL service? I'm perplexed. It's not indexes. I still have the old box and load the current dbase to it for testing purposes and the report runs like lightning on it.
Thanks,
Dave
Hi
How can i create a case statement with a bigger and smaller than sign in it. I keep on getting an error.
Here is the piece of code i'm working on and simply enough, the idea of what i am trying to accomplish.
Code Snippet
SELECT Weight.Weight,
Height.Height,
(Weight.Weight/(Height.Height*Height.Height)) AS BMI,
CASE BMI
WHEN (BMI < 18) THEN 'Under Weight'
WHEN (BMI < 25) THEN 'Healthy Weight'
END AS 'BMI Grouping'
Any Help will be greatly appreciated
Kind Regards

Hi,
I´m trying to transfer a large amount of data from Oracle 8 to Sql Server. For each table, I have an OleDBSource with DataAccessMode Command (select with one inner join), Data Conversion and OleDBDestination. Sometimes I´m getting an ORA-01555 snapshot too old error, so I´d like to set a bigger rollback segment, but don´t know how. Please, can anybody help me?
Thanks

Hi.. We have a MSSQL application and the DB file (not the log file) seems getting bigger over this few year and right now you are running almost out of space. May I know how does the other company deal with this kind of situation?
i am sure other company data is getting bigger as well and it has been longer time than ours. How to deal with it ?
I'm importing about 15 million rows of data from an access file to an MSSQL database. Some of the fields in the Access file are of DataType "text". The destination fields in the SQL DB are of type varchar(50), and none of the text fields in the access file actually use anything other then English characters. I put in a "data conversion" item to handle the switch from "text" (which usually trys conversion to nvarchar by default) to varchar.
The import works, and the resulting table ends up weighing about 1.2 gigs. HOWEVER, the log itself is a crazy 7-8 gigs heavy. I have no idea why the log size bloats this much. I can backup/shrink later in the package, but this 8 gig could easily push the hard drive over its limit at some point before completion and I'm looking for a better alternative.
Database is on "simple" recovery mode. The combined size of the db, before the operation, log + data, is maybe around 5 meg.
Incidentally, I tried with out the intermediate data conversion step, and a similar thing happened - log finishes up about 7 gig, table is 1.2
Seems ridiculous that the log should grow faster then the table. Any ideas why??

The reason I say this is because a subtotal of a dollar amount will take up more space than other values. Right now, I'm forced to make all columns the same larger width because it appears to be all wrapped into 1 column width setting. I can try to change the value of the subtotal column, "matrixcolumn4", but it reverts to the other value after I press enter to apply the changes.

I have a serious problem:
I created 1 database with 2 file group : 1 primary and 1 index.
- Primary file group includes 1 data file (*.mdf): store all tables
- Index file group includes 1 index file (*.ndf): store all indexes
Most of indexes are non-cluster indexes
After a short time using, data file is 2GB but index file is 12 GB.
I do not know what problem happened in my database.
I have some questions:
1/ How so I reduce size of index file ?
2/ How to know what is stored in index file?
3/ How to trace all impact to index file?
4/ How to limit size growing of index file?
Thanks in advanced

We have a large database table with an IMAGE field holding documents of < 1MB size.
Over time this table has become quite large and operations on it have become slow.
My question is, would changing from IMAGE to varbinary(max) make the binary storage more efficient thereby making the table operations faster.
Also, would the table size be smaller with varbinary(max)?
Thanks
One of our databases has the following sizes:
Data used : 4017.14MB (191.29%)
Indexes 35.48 mb (1.69%)
Unused : 5.27 MB (0.25 %)
Unreserved: -1957.89 mb (- 93.23 %)
Total Size 2100MB
looking at this the data size is 2100Mb and the data used is more at 4014.14MB.
How can I sort this out, do I simply need to create another device and expand the database or do I need to do something else?
Cheers
Can anyone tell me what varbinary casts to ?? can I do this int[] temp=(int)DataReader["varbinaryColumn"]. Or is byte[] temp the appropiate protocol.

i want to do something with this database but i don't know how:
there is this column that is varbinary and i want to replace just one part of its content, for example:
this is its content:
'CC08FF806785'
and i just want to change the FF for AA.
i tried using query analyzer with this:
update table
set column=replace(column,'FF','AA')
but it says something like conversion isn't allowed from data varchar to varbinary and that i should use the function "convert" but i don't know how to use that!
does anyone know how to do that?
thanks!

HiI moved to SQL Server 2005 (from 2000) and noticed there is a bettervariable to deal with binary arrays.I hava a table that hold 9 columns of images (BLOB). each array has adifferent size and can be larger than 4k.I've changed the column data type from image to varbinary(max).After the chnage, the size of the table grew from 22MB to 26MB.Any idea why? I though the new variable should be better.I have another table where there are 3 columns with binaries, the sizeof the arrays there is much smaller and vary from 32bytes to 150byteslong. when I changed the data type to varbinary the size of the tableshrunk by half!!now I'm completely confused...Gilad.

Hello,
Would you please be kind to answer my question !
I have developed an ASP.NET Web application using SQL Server Express 2005 in my local PC where I have used VarBinary(MAX) for an image data storage. It is working fine in my computer. Now, I have configured my SQL Server 2005 in my production server using MyLittleAdmin, I found that, I can not set the value MAX for VarBinary, so I am forced to enter the value of varBinary = 8000. Now, When I insert image to this field more than 8KB, I get the following message,
"String or binary data would be truncated."
So, what does it mean, Is it not really possible to store image or file data in VarBinary which is more than 8KB ? if yes, then how can I configure my table for that using MyLittleAdmin ?
Regards
I have been instructed to setup a database that will allow the storing of files in binary format. I have looked at using the varbinary(max) data type on a column to store the information. I am not sure based on books online how much information this can store. I have files that could be as large as 5-10 GB in size. Will SQL 2005 support storing these in binary format with that data type?

I need to run a replace on a varbinary field but I am unsure how. I have tried mulitple different methods and to no avail. I am stumped.
I have attached a zip folder that contains a spreadsheet that shows what I am trying to do. In the first tab it shows the SQL command I use to call the field I want to change. In this case it's the Content field and I am calling it using the content_key. As you can tell the content is stored as varbinary. In the second sheet, It shows this varbinary being converted to varchar(max) and it shows what the actual text says.
The table that this information is stored is is called digitalassetcontent
I need to remove the
Code:
<STYLE>H1{font-weight:bold}H1{font-size: 14pt}OL</STYLE><H1>Product Description</H1>
That is in front of the actual product description.
Somehow I need to run this command:
Code:
Update digitalassetcontent
set content = replace(CAST(content as varchar(max)), '<STYLE>H1{font-weight:bold}H1{font-size: 14pt}OL</STYLE><H1>Product Description</H1>','')
Where CAST(content as varchar(max)) like '<STYLE>H1{font-weight:bold}H1{font-size: 14pt}OL</STYLE><H1>Product Description</H1>%' AND content_key = 'desc214974236480438500781058983745755010'
This is the error message I get when running this code: Implicit conversion from data type varchar(max) to varbinary(max) is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
On the varbinary field. How do I do this?
Hello,
I am trying to create a statement that will update many rows in a table with images, stored as varbinary(max), into a new column.
The path/file information is all stored in another table, but I can't find a way to update more than 1 at a time. Here is the statement that works for 1 row at a time:
update tblphotos set photo = (select
BulkColumn from
Openrowset( Bulk '\**servername**PropsImagesDon Giovanni 2002PropsHorses Guts 2.jpg', Single_Blob) as photo
)
where photoseq = 27
but if I try to do something like this:
CREATE TABLE #temp (
photoSeq int,
photoLoc varchar(255),
photo varbinary(max)
)
INSERT #temp
select p.photoseq, f.fldlocation + p.photophyloc as files,
(select
BulkColumn from
Openrowset( Bulk f.fldlocation + p.photophyloc, Single_Blob) as photo
)
FROM txprops t
join tblfolders f on t.fldlocation = f.fldseq
join tblphotos p on p.photopropseq = t.propseq
begin tran
update a set photo = b.photo
from tblphotos a
join #temp b on a.photoseq = b.photoseq
where a.photoseq = b.photoseq
select * from tblphotos order by photophyloc
commit tran
drop table #temp
I get an error: Incorrect syntax near 'f'.
I think this is because I can only put a path in beside BULK.
I have investigated BULK and bcp commands, but cannot find anything to satisfy this. I tried the DTS package route, but am not getting very far.
Any suggestions? Is DTS the solution for me?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIt would be nice if SQL Server Everywhere could support NVARCHAR(MAX) and VARBINARY(MAX), even if they would just be alias' for NTEXT and IMAGE. This would somewhat simplify the interoperability with SQL Server 2005 (i.e. no need to have different scripts for each database type).

Hi everyone,
We're trying to migrate a varchar field from Sql2k to varbinary in a sql25k through a dtsx package. We get an error which tell us: "data will be lost".
Does anyone have any idea about that?
Thanks for your time and inputs,
Hello,
I'm trying to insert a string expression into a varbinary field. I've tried it several ways, but the data does not seem to get inserted.
I map DT_STR field ("T") with varbinary field in destination table and the package executes properly, but when I see the data that it has been loaded I only see empty values (0x).
I have also tried other approaches, like converting to DT_BYTES during SSIS flow, but I always get the same result.
Any idea of how to achieve this?
Using the new encryption included in SQL Server 2005, what is a good way to determine what length I should use for the column?
For example, I am encrypting a column, its maxlength is about 30 characters, but when encrypted, the encrypted value extends from between 50 and no more than 68 characters-
So if I had a column with a max of 500 or so characters, how could I know what varbinary length I should set it to if I were to encrypt it, without actually finding the highest value I could possibly fit into the field?
Is it good practice to just make it a varbinary(max) field?

Hi,
We serialize a custom object into a byte array (byte[1000]) and store it in a SQL Server 2005 table column as varbinary(1000).
There are a lot of rows retrieved with each SqlDataReader from C# code: up to 3,456,000 rows at a time (that is, roughly 3.5 million rows).
I am trying to figure out what will be more efficent in terms of CPU usage and processing time.
We have come up with quite a few approaches to solve this problem.
In order to try a few of them, I have to know how I can extract certain "pieces" of data from a varbinary value using T-SQL.
For example, out of those 1000 bytes, at any given moment we need only the first 250 bytes and the third 250 bytes.
Total: 1000 -> [250-select][250-no-need][250-select][250-no-need]
One approach would be to get everything and parse it in C#: get the 1st and the 3rd chunks of data and discard the unneeded 2nd and 4th.
This is WAY TOO BAD.
Another approach would be to delegate the "filtering" job to SQL Server so that SqlDataReader gets only what it needs.
I am going to try a SQL-CLR stored procedure, but when I compared performance of T-SQL vs. SQL-CLR stored procs a few weeks ago, I saw that the same job is done by T-SQL a bit faster AND (more importantly for us) with less CPU consumption than SQL-CLR.
So, my question is:
how do I select certain "pieces" of varbinary column data using T-SQL?..
In other words, instead of
SELECT MyVarbinary1000 FROM MyTable
how do I do this:
SELECT <first 250 from MyVarbinary1000>, <third 250 from MyVarbinary1000> FROM MyTable
?
Thank you.
