Invalid Operator For Data Type. Operator Equals Boolean AND, Type Equals Nvarchar

Any ideas on where I am going wrong?

Invalid Operator For Data Type. Operator Equals Boolean AND, Type Equals Datetime.
May 18, 2004I am getting a error message saying: Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals boolean AND, type equals datetime.
I traced the pointer to @gdo and @gd, they are both dates!
INSERT INTO AdminAlerts values (CURRENT_USER, 'UPDATE', getDate(), @biui, 'Updated booking, ID of booking updated: ' & @biui & ', Booking date and time before/after update: ' & @gdo & '/' & @gd & ', Room number before/after update: ' & @rno & '/' & @rn & ' and Customer ID before/after update: ' & @cio & '/' & @ci)
If I cut that two dates out it works fine.
Could someone tell me the syntax to include a date in a string :confused:

What Is Wrong With My SQL Having Equals (=) ?
Aug 8, 2006I have a table called "Inc_Exp_Accounts". The table has ledger account numbers and names. It also has a third column called "IsExpense". The IsExpense column is a bit field = 0 (false) if the account is an income account and = -1 (true) if the account is an expense account. I only have income and expense accounts. I do not have other accounts such as asset accounts. The distinguishing thing about income accounts is that the account number (an nvarchar(11) type) is a '3'. Anything else makes it an expense account.
I would think I can use the following SQL statement to correctly set the IsExpense column:
UPDATE Inc_Exp_Accounts
SET IsExpense = IIF(LEFT(Account_Number, 1) = '3', False, True)
But nooo, I cannot! I cannot even run it because Visual Studio SQL Syntax checker rejects it. It complains about the second '='. If I change the second '=' to '>', then it complains about '>'. Therefore, I think I have the particular character about which it complains.
Ths specific complaint (error message) is: "Error in list of function arguments: '=' not recognized.
Unable to parse query text.".
So what is wrong?
Using Wildcards Efficiently With Equals Or LIKE
Jul 6, 2006Is it possible to use wildcards with an equals statement? Such asSELECT * FROM Table WHERE City = '%' AND State='Ca'Bascially just stating where city equals anything...I know you can do it with a LIKE statement such as...SELECT * FROM Table WHERE City LIKE '%' AND State='Ca'but is that very efficient?The reason I want to do this is because I want to programmitcally set the city, so just ommiting it won't work
Also, using City LIKE '%' seems to not include NULL...is there anywayto include NULL as well as anything else?
Thanks for your help!
Problem In Seaching With Like Or Equals
Jan 14, 2008Hello,
I perform queries on tables with 500,000 plus records, when I use the like clause or the = for record names with large numbers I get different counts with each run. As an example if I was searching retail stores and k-mart was one I get counts like the following
1st run: k-mart 2200
2nd run: k-mart 2240
3rd run: k-mart 2197 etc. etc.
The records may be k-mart inc or kmart inc or k-mart etc.
If anyone has a better understanding of how the items are searched for and knows a better way please respond.
Thank you in advance.
Rounding Number With Ending Equals 5
May 30, 2006Hi,
How do I round when number is ending with 5 for example:
When the number next to number 5 is an even number
24.5 = 24.0 round down
0.245 = .24 round down
1265 = 1260 round down
when the number next to number 5 is an odd number
23.5 = 24.0 round up
0.235 = .24 round up
1755 = 1760 round up
Thanks in advance!

Empty String Equals To Blank: How To Change This Behaviour?
Feb 11, 2008This seems to be a rather old problem (http://www.themssforum.com/SQLServer/Does-empty/) but I couldn't find an answer yet.
The problem is: I have two tables t1 and t2 where t1 is a staging area of t2.
t1: (id int not null, phone varchar(30))
t2: (id int not null, phone varchar(30))
Data in t1: (1, '') <- empty string
Data in t2: (1, ' ') <- a blank
Comparing t1.phone with t2.phone results in equality which in my opinion isn't correct.
The question ist: How can I change the behaviour of SQL-Server to result in inequality so that the change in my staging table is detected correctly?
Thanks in advance

Sql Cannot Resolve Collation Conflict Equals - Comparing Rows And Fileds Between Table1 And View1
Jun 27, 2007Hello,I currently have Table1 and View1.View1 is a query from 2 or 3 tables that works fine on its own.However in my current query if I try to use it...something like...SELECT a.col1, a.col2, a.col3, b.col1, b.col2, b.col3FROM View1 a JOIN Table1 b on a.col1 = b.col1WHERE a.col2 <b.col2 OR a.col3 <b.col3It throws an error "Server: Msg 446, Level 16, State 9, Line 1 Cannotresolve collation conflict for not equal to operation."Clearly I need to use collation between Table1 and View1, But I dontknow where I need to use "COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CI_AI" andhow? this is the collation set on Table1.Thank you!Yas

Memory Configurations For SQL Server 2005 EE X64 With SQL Server 2000 EE X32 On Windows Server EE X64 Server
Apr 20, 2007My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?

When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?
Thanks.

Can't Connect .Net Application From Windows Server 2003 To Database Server (SQL Server 2000)
Apr 3, 2008Hi,
I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error.
Here is the error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Here is the Environment:
App Server:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
Inside Company's Firewall/ Network
Database Server:
Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition
SQL Server 2000 SP4
Remote Connections to the Server is checked
Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP
TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433)
The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition.
I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address.
I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server).
I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP?
What do I tell the network admin to change?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oran

Help! SQL Server Error - [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Invalid Object Name ...
Jul 23, 2005Dear all,On Win2000 server with SP3, I am trying to access a SQL Server 7.0database, "TestDB", from VB6 via a SQL Server ODBC system DSN using ADO2.7. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, there is a login named "Tester".In its property window, NO "Server Roles" was assigned but its"Database Access" was set to "TestDB". This login was also made as theuser of "TestDB" with "public", "db_datareader" and "db_datawriter"selected as its "Database role membership". All the tables I am tryingto access in "TestDB" were created under "Tester".My code is like:Set conn = New ADODB.Connectionconn.Open "DSN=TestDSN;UID=Tester;PWD=test"Set cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = conncmd.CommandText = SQLset rs = cmd.Execute()If I set the SQL to something like "SELECT * FROM tbl_test", I alwaysget an error of "-2147217865" saying "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL ServerDriver][SQL Server] Invalid object name tbl_test". If I set the SQL to"SELECT * FROM Tester.tbl_test", everything runs properly. Could anyoneplease kindly advise why the first SQL is not working? Or in otherwords, why must I prefix the table name with its owner while the DBconnection is already made under that owner name? Thanks in advance.Tracy

SQL Server 2005 Installation Problems With SQL Server Express && SQL Server 2000
May 31, 2006Hi Guys,
I have had SQL Server Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express installed on my machine for some time and recently tried to install a trial of SQL Server 2005 as well. (Yes, I'm migrating from Visual Studio Express to Visual Studio Professional, just as in tended!)
Everything went fine except that nothing seemed to be installed. I searched in all the obvious places - both on the Start/Programs menu and on the hard-drive: nothing.
A check under Add/Remove Programs showed that Sql Server 2005 Express was installed, but called SQL Server 2005.
So after a number of retries in which the install program kept saying that there was nothing to install, I selected every option under Advanced in the intall process. This resulted in stuff being installed and I now have SQL Server 2005 running on my machine, but no SQL Server Manager icon.
My questions are:
Where can I find the SQL Server Manager executeable?
Has anyone installed SQL Server Express, SQL Server Mangement Studio Express, SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio on a single machine successfully? If so, what order did you install them in? (I'm planning on uninstalling everything SXQL Server related and starting again.)
Thanks very much for your help.

May 4, 2007Hi
I have created a linked server from SQL Server 2005 (SP 1) to SQL Service 2000 (SP 4) with a sql server login that is available on both servers but with different passwords and permissions.
I am getting the following error while accessing the linked server in management studio based on the scenario given below ;
------ Error Message Starts
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "(SQL Server 2000 instance name)" returned message "Communication link failure".

Consider login name is abc.
Now this login abc has sysadmin rights on sql server 2005.
The same login abc has only db_datareader rights on sql server 2000 on just one database and is not associated with any fixed server role.
I have configured the linked server using the following options;
1. I have tried impersonating login from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 .
2. I have also tried specifying remote login / password option.
Anyone having any idea, would be of great help.

Server SQL-Server 2005 Crash While Indexing By The Server SharePoint 2007
Feb 7, 2008Hello,
I have an intranet environment consists of two servers:
- An application server windows 2003 server with 64-bit server Sharepoint 2007 SP1 (Standard version for search)
- A database server windows 2003 server with 64-bit SQL Server 2005 SP2 64-bit (Standard - 9.0.3054)
It happens regularly that the database server crash (frozen black screen) while the application server indexes (crawl) the content of the intranet site based on sharepoint. There is no alert / error in the observer of events, nor in the sql logs.
The crash is uncertain: dice once all goes well, soon after that crash. When i set the parameter search service (service management research), I can define a regulatory impact of the robot to change the number of documents at the same time : "Request 2 documents at the same time, the crash is more rare, "ask 64 documents at a time, the crash is more common.
My Intranet under sharepoint is composed of a collection site with a dozen sub-sites. There are 3 large library of PDF document. All done in the 4 go in terms of volume.
My problem for about 3-4 months. (Maybe more. Before, indexing was not yet in place).
Someone could help me? Thank you
