Wierd: How Much SQL Code Can I Type In A Dataset?!
Oct 3, 2007
Hi
I'm modifying a report from MS CRM. Sales Pipeline. Not the easiest one but still. I just got to the drilldown report and need to change some things in it. I tested the SQL code as I could in SQL Server Management Studio so that I don't have any misspellings (the report I'm modifying is on a remote location). Anyway, now that I copy my code to the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio and to the dataset I'm modyfing I see that a chunk of code from the bottom is missing ... ??? ... is there a limit on how much I can type?!
I counted in Word that I have 33.176 characters and 878 lines of code. Is that to much?!
The original report has a dataset of 27.529 characters and 724 lines of SQL code.
Hi I really need your help. I’ve got a table with 4 columns – username (a string of text), dateTime (a date and time), duration (time in minutes), roomID (URL). I really need some help with writing up some code behind to check if a user has permission to continue. I’ve got the first bit, but I need help with collecting the data and testing it: SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(Global.ConnectionString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select * from tblActiveSession where Username=@Username", conn); SqlParameter paraUsername = cmd.Parameters.Add("@Username", SqlDbType.NVarChar); paraUsername.Value = this.txtUsername.Text; try { conn.Open() This is where I need the help. What I need is to test each row against the following: If now() is within the allowed time frame – greater than dateTime, but less than dateTime + duration, then break the loop and redirect to roomID. I really hope this makes sence, and I’m greatful for any help. Many thanksRichard
Is there any better way to debug a query encased in IIF statements thanto find bugs at runtime? I have an especially ugly CommandText for oneof my datasets, and debugging it when there is an error is nearlyimpossible. I realize that it's much cleaner when you have straightSQL, but otherwise the tool doesn't seem to be very user-friendly.Thanks,Mike
I would like to know what the best method of handling a rather large record selection task.
Here is the crystal version.
if {?WhseRegion} = 'Western' then {R_ShippingLog;1.InvUnitSite} in ['LA','AL','DA','DB','OA','PO','SE','TH','TN']
else if {?WhseRegion} = 'Eastern' then {R_ShippingLog;1.InvUnitSite} in ['AD','BE','CH','CI','EL','FL','IL','JL','KC','KS','MA','MI','MK','NE','NJ','NO','PA','SA','STL']
else {R_ShippingLog;1.InvUnitSite} in ['LA','AL','DA','DB','OA','PO','SE','TH','TN','AD','BE','CH','CI','EL','FL','IL','JL','KC','KS','MA','MI','MK','NE','NJ','NO','PA','SA','STL']
What I trying to figure out is how to incorporate the above in the dataset filter area on the datagrid.
For setting different languages on the column haeders i need to access a dataset from a custom code function call. I want to pass a parameter to the function that will allow me to find a specific item in the dataset - like a lookup function. I cannot find a way to get access to the entire dataset and to iterate through its components.
Is there any solution? Every hint will be helpful!
I have dataadapter and dataset that reads/writes to SQL tables. I can read. I can create "new" records. However, I have not been able to master the "updating" of an existing row. Can someone provide me specific code for doing this please or tell me what I doing wrong in the code below. The code I using is below. I don't get error, but changes do not get written to SQL dbase. For starters, I think I "not" supposed to use the 2nd line(....NewRow). I think this is only for new row, not updating of existing row - but I don't know any other way to get schema of row. thanks to any who can help
Hi I wonder if it is possible to create a dataset in code and then feed it to a Reporting Svcs (RS) report and have it rendered on the data from this dataset. My collegues does this with Crystal and it would break my heart if I cant do this with (RS)... I have tried to find a solution but so far, no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
I used a function to create dataset as below: Public Function GetSQLDataSet(ByVal SQL As String) As DataSet ...... MyConnection = New SqlConnection(MyConnectionString) MyCommand = New SqlCommand(SQL, MyConnection) MyDataSet = New DataSet MySQLDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(MyCommand) MySQLDataAdapter.Fill(MyDataSet) ...... End function It works fine. How to code a function to return a dataset in which there are two tables and relationship?
Code page translations are not supported for the text data type. From:1252 To: 950.I would like to know what this message means. I also installed thelanguage packs in advanced settings, Everything is set to English. Mywindows XP computer is XP English. For some reason I cant get an updateto go thru using ADO. like Recordset.UpdateAlthough other routines using .update workAny ideas?
strSQL = "select '<input type=text name='& id &'size=4 maxlength=4 value=>',product,description,moreinfo,media,License,unitc ost from newdeal where category='" & session("category") & "'"
Idea is the value of id to be fetched from the DB and substituted in the input box.It works well with MS Access but in SqlServer it is showing an error saying that data of varchar type cannot be converted to *******.Id is ******* data type in the DB .can anyone help me please
I'm writing a report for a survey application. There is a subscriber table, a question table, and an answer table. The subscriber table holds info like the name, address, etc of the publication's subscribers. The Question table holds the questions on the survey (ie, How many widgets do you own? What is your age? How many do you think you will purchase in the coming year?). The Answer table holds answers to each question (18-21, 25-50%, 20+, etc). I am forced to work within a very non-standard database application running on MS SQL Server 2000 that also uses a separate Relationships table, so to determine which answers go with which questions the relationships table will have a record linking a question to an answer (and vice versa). To determine how each subscriber answered the question the subscibers have a record in the relationships table linking them with specific answers (and vice versa). Both types of entries are in the same table. There are several questions that will include a note to "check all that apply" (you may get several widgets from the company). The report runs through each question, shows how many subscribers answered the question, and how many selected each answer as a percentage of the total for that question. It is nearly finished, I can run it on the test data for any date, but there is one special case I'm having trouble with. For one question, they want to know additionally how many people chose one possible answer, but no others. I can do it using simple SQL to get the list of the subscribers that chose the answer in question, and then loop through each one in vb and run another query that will tell me how many answers related to that question they selected. This works okay for the test data, but in production there are more than 100,000 subscribers, which means running 100.000+ individual querys. I know it's possible to do this in one (all I want is the final count), but the SQL for this is horrid. Any help appreciated.
I am having a Package scope variable DS of type system.object .In the Script Component which accept this variable as ReadWrite type I am Making the following assignment.
Public Overrides Sub PostExecute()
Variables.DsReport = DsReport // DsReport is a Data Set Object Created and Populated inside the script Component
End Sub
I am getting error while doing this sort of assignment.
We have an asp.net2 website pointing at sql2005 (not service packed yet - it may be the cause, not sure - would like opinions first!).The website will run without problems, but randomly we get the following scenario:We have a function that takes a SP name and a sqlcommand with parameter information. It opens a connection and uses a dataadapter to fill a datatable, then closes the connection and returns. When the problem occurs, we get a sqltimeout on the line where it tries to fill the datatable. However, when the function is called again, the results from the first query seem to get populated into the datatable. Then when it gets called again, the previous results are again returned. Its like ADO sees the timeout (but sql doesn't), but then picks up the next available resultset from sql (which is the wrong one!).Hope the above makes sense....Cheers,James.
hey ppl, if there is any1 that can help me here i would apreciateerror line(probably)Comando = New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO Table1(name) VALUES('a')", Conexao)on Table1 i have those fieldsid(int, identity) e name(text)but when i execute this code i get the following error:Error on the XML processing: no element found(ps. the error wasnt on english so i made a poor translation but i think u can have a general ideia)(the error message untranslated)Erro no processamento de XML: nenhum elemento encontradoPosição: http://localhost/teste.aspxNúmero da linha 1, Coluna 1:anyway, the wierd part is that on the sqlserver the data is insertted normally.. so.. what is that error??any1 pls help me! im going nuts (ps. im still noob on asp.net/sqlserver so please be gentle ^.^)(ps2. sorry for the crap english but it isnt my native language :) )
The amount of columns needs to be dynamic. If i were to add pineapple there needs to be 5 columns etc. Sorry if this has been covered before but I wasnt sure on search criteria. Thanks in advance.

Hi,I can not find any reference or support for the following issue fromMicrosoft or on Google:When I open a table either to return data or try to use the design tools orif I try to create a new database diagram, I get a new result pane, diagrampane etc... but no result and no functionality within that pane. Thedatabase is working and I can run querys using MS Query. The problem seemsto be with MMC or Enterprise Manager.I am using SQL Server 7.623 Service Patch Level 4 or 6. I am not sure onthat point. This has been a stable well functioning system for years withno recent changes. So I am sure it is not a configuration issue.Thanks in advance for your help.PS; I don't want to seem rude, but I am not interested in buying a new"upgrade" to fix this so any MS adbots out there can just not bother withresponding to this post :)

what is this about? why does it happen , and why not always? the package generation is generated by a web service that is called from an asp.net 2.0 page .
I setup the query as a stored procedure and changed the SSIS accordingly. Running the sp from within SSMS was fine but the task still returned the wierd results.
This is completely unexpected and giving us headaches. It doesn't even look like well-formed XML to my eyes and won't display in IE without showing problems! Where are the eroneous /'s and ROOT nodes coming from?
I can't imagine we are the only people to have run into this and I'm sure we aren't doing something quite right - just stuck as to what we're doing wrong.
Hopefully I've provided enough info. If not just ask.
I am struggling with creating a simple stored procedure, I want to take max(timekey) out in one variable @Val in a dynamic SQL statement as below in SP. When I create this SP, it creates successfully but when I run it I get error
Select @Val=MAX(TimeKey) FROM ABC
Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Must declare the scalar variable "@Val".
Can someone help me in understanding this wierd behavior? And how to get rid of this. Table and SP scripts are as below
CREATE TABLE ABC (TimeKey int, Data_Val int)
CREATE Procedure MAXVal(@Table_Name Varchar(30))
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Val INT,
@SQL Varchar(100)
SET @SQL='Select @Val=MAX(TimeKey) FROM '+''+@Table_Name+''
I used two symbols (”¬€¬ and ”´) in my reporting services page and they appear fine in Internet Explorer. However, when I try to export the page to a PDF file, they appear as question marks.
Can someone tell me why or how to work around this?
I am not sure which of the forums this question should be posted to (Engine or TSQL) so I have posted to both. Please forgive the cross-post.
The problem we are having is with the performance of a stored procedure. Normally, this specific proc will only take seconds to run, but if we at all modify the stored proc in any way, the proc will take at least 20 minutes to run (we don't really know when it will finish because we cut it off at 20 minutes).
When this happens, we can run the profiler and see that a lock and unlock is happening on each record that the query is returning. We are at a loss as to why this is happening.
The only way to fix it (get the proc run time back down to seconds) is to run the engine tuning advisor. We don't even need to apply any of the recommended changes, we just need to run it and the proc performance goes back down to mere seconds.
If we run the profiler again when the proc performs normally, we dont' see any locking going on.
We can consistenly repeat these steps.
Just so we aren't jumping the gun, we have re-written and disected the proc 8 ways to Sunday and it still does the same thing.
Anyone else see this and can offer any suggestions?
When I try to run the asp.net application (C#) it is throwing the following exception.
"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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)"
The problem is I don't have SQL Server 2005 installed in my system. And I am trying to connect a remote SQL 2000 server.
Adding to my confusion, the same code is working fine in another system.
Yes, I am pulling my hair out on this one...................
PROBLEM:When importing from my .sql file, I loose many lines of info in my SQL table. I am using the SQL Query Analyzer to execute the file. The file contains 655,000 rows and 20 columns of data on it.
When I run the full file, the system tells me it does not have enough system resources to execute the request. I broke it down just to see if it could handle a smaller file.
When I create a table and have it insert 10,000 rows of info, it drops 88 lines of data.
When I do the same with 120,000 rows I loose 300 rows of data.
When I run it with 56,000 lines of data on the file, I loose 260 rows of data.
When I do just 1,000 rows or below it is perfect.
I have taken the chunks into Excel and verified the number of lines I was trying to put into the table, and everytime, it showed I had the amount of lines I thought I was trying to import.
When I did a query once the table was created to see how many lines it created, I was always short.
This is what my query consisted of (Let me know if this may be my issue)
SELECT COUNT(*) Col_1 FROM nfo_tablename GO
I even tried zero column names
Any suggestions??? Am I doing something wrong here? Should I be executing the process in a different way?
Here is the basic idea of what the top part of my "CREATE TABLE" file looks like (Color coded as I see it in my Query Analyzer):
Thank you all for your insight. Any ideas, thoughts or suggestions, would be appreciated. I really need to get this table done so I can get a couple web pages created this weekend that are due Monday.
SELECT DSNew, DTTM, RQDT FROM dbo.Feb INNER JOIN DMSEFL ON ACTR = DSNew where cast(DSNew as varchar(20)) = cast(ACTR As varchar(20)) If I run the above query I get zero recs back.
If I substitute a Value then I get the desired results (ie. where DSNew = '93235500') or if I enter (ACTR = '93235500') or if I put (where DSNew = '93235500' AND ACTR = '93235500')
Can anyone suggest a reason why this is happening. I know the records exist on both tables I ran the query in Acess and got the desired resutls.
Vb stores an image (bitmap/jpg) in a SQL2000 image field. For somereason it doubles the size by adding 00 for each byte. But sometimes itdoesn't add 00 (0000.0000) but 01 or 20 or ?? and also the byte thatshould be transferd is changed...So SQLImageData = Imagebyte + 00and sometimesSQLImageData = CHANGEDImagebyte + xx.Some example data: (hex notation):A1 => A1 0003 => 03 00-----------91 => 18 2083 => 92 018C => 52 01Could anybody give me an explanation, because I need to know what ishappening, so I can remove te extra bytes added......I have already a image when I remove the extra bytes, but with somewrong data (on the place where things like 8C => 52 01 happen)....Thx,Geronimo
Right this has to be a Micro$oft mess-up surely...?I'm running SQL 2k standard with SP3. I have a table which I'm tryingto query using a LIKE operator on a varchar field as follows....WHERE dbo.tbl_pm_projects.SeniorManagerID LIKE '%'....In actual fact the % is passed in by the application when the userselects "All managers" from the drop down list used to select theManager to filter by. If they select a manager's name from the listit becomes LIKE 'ajames' or whatever.BUT - the table currently contains 2972 records. If I take out theWHERE clause the SELECT returns all records - fine - but if I put thewhere clause in it returns only 1682!! I thought the % was meant tomatch, and I quote the SQL server Books Online files here; "Any stringof zero or more characters." Anyone explain to me whats going onhere?TIANiall
I can access the report server remotely. However, when I try to access via browser locally, no luck. I get access denied.
Some kind of browser diff maybe?
I noticed that on the browsers/machines that work, I have the option of putting the domain in seperately. The browser that doesnt work (on the same machine as the db server and web site) puts the domain in front of the username for me.
I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.
