Hi, I am a bit confused on the many uses of the @ symbol, such as in assignments and in use by stored procedures. I am not quite clear on when it needs to be used and when it doesn't, what it means, etc. Could someone either point me to a good reference, or explain? (I have read several books on MS Sql server, but somehow missed this.) I use the symbol, but I don't understand when to use it and when not to, without referencing an example. Thanks,
I have SQL Server 2000 SP3 and the default Code Page is:
I have a Table with a column of the type 'text'. In this column sometimes it's necessary introduce the euro symbol (€). Now, when we write this symbol, after the SQL Server show it with a '?'.
I tried change the column collation to 'Latin1_General_CI_AI', ‘SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AI’ and ‘SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CI_AI’ but there is the same problem.
this sql statement doesn't content any error but if the sentences that want to insert into table contain symbol ' then it will process error when enter into table. ( data contain symbol ' can't insert into table).
May i know how to solve this problem. i did refer to my friends they said need include java class, but they not sure what's the class that i need.
So i help i can get the help here. Thank in advance
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY BM.BILL_NUMBER_V) AS [SL_NO],PP.KID_ID_NO_V AS [KID_NO],(PP.FIRSTNAME_V + SPACE(1) + PP.LASTNAME_V)AS [PATIENT_NAME], CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),PP.UPDATEDDATE_D,101)AS [VISIT_DATE],BM.BILL_NUMBER_V AS [BILL_NUMBER],CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),BM.BILL_DATE_D,101) AS [BILL_DATE], ROUND(BM.BILL_AMOUNT_M,2) AS [BILL_AMOUNT],ROUND(BM.CONCESSION_AMOUNT_M,2) AS [CONCESSION_AMOUNT],ROUND(BM.TOTAL_AMOUNT_M,2) AS [TOTAL_AMOUNT],

In the above query i want to concat symbol '%' for output of percentage column. How to do that?
I'm having a problem with the Euro symbol on my SQLServers which all have characterset 850 and Unicode collation 1033. As far as I can see charset 850 does not contain the € symbol, but if I run a query
DECLARE @nstring nchar(12) SET @nstring = N'€' SELECT UNICODE(@nstring), NCHAR(UNICODE(@nstring))
Result: 8364 €
So the Unicode character 8364 is the Euro symbol. My question now is how do I have to write a statement so that the € symbol is shown in the output. I need to use something like the following: Select 'Costs:'+ € + convert(money, table1.costs) Result: € 123.00
I tried several options but never get the right output. Is there any way of doing it or do I have to change the characterset.
We are running SQL Version 7.0. I recently set up a simple snapshot replication. After restarting enterprise manager a hand symbol showed up under the database barrel as if a share symbol. Am I correct in assuming the symbol means replication. Is there a source that explains what the various symbols mean?
We are getting 67.2,62.4,81.9 these are percentages these are rounded values..so in my report I would like to add % symbol for them I have written expression like this
=left(Fields!Sales_Margin_TY____.Value,4) & "%"
but I was getting 67.1Â in place of 67.2Â
I dont want to change the figures which is coming from source...
Just I want to add % for those values... how to do that ..
I am looking for a way to remove the printer symbol from the report manger because it dows not work on some client machines because they are locked down. For us it is completely sufficient to export to PDF.
Is there a setting or an entry in the web config or something else. A hint would be helpful
I'm working of a project that has each row of column data stored in this format: AAChieve Initiative - Business Development Consultant|Marketing|4F|210710 Is there a way I can break this rows apart with TSQL based of the | symbol? Thanks in advance!
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE name = 'TwoDigitsNumber' AND type = 'FN') DROP FUNCTION MinimumOFThree; GO CREATE FUNCTION TwoDigitsNumber(@a int) RETURNS nvarchar(20)

The only first letter 'f', 's', 'e' is inserted in value instead 'first', 'second', 'equal'.
I have amount field in my table as decimal. I need a query to display the amount with dollar or euro symbol based on country selection. The country also in same table.
For example If country is US then Amount $1200, If country is UK then Amount €1200.
And so far so good I get the three options to export to,
If I Export using the ASCII Rendering my pound signs come out as question marks (?) and subsequently loads into Excel as a general data type and is not sum-able.
If I Export using UTF-8 Rendering my pound signs come out as a weird character followed by a pound sign, again opened in excel loads as a General data type and is not summable.
If I export using UNICODE rendering, by file sizes are doublesd as you would expect, and then when you open in excel it is all bunched up in column 1, both un-acceptable.
Interestingly enough If I take the UTF-8 file I have and convert it to ASCII using Ultraedit, notepad or wordpad, everything works fine, the £ is correctly encoded, Excel loads it OK and it is summable, result, but I can not use get my end users to perform this "kludge" for an export.
I'd like the state of the function bars to stay at whatever it was as the user moves from one report to the next rather than opening to full each time a new report is opened. Can this be done through a setting or programatically at teh report level? Is there a <default_toolbars_OpenState> tag or something?
Is it possible to include a currency symbol in an amount-field in PowerPivot/Pivottable based on a Currency column in a table? Something as the same as with SSAS MD. And I don't want fixed values in my code.
I am attempting to write a Windows service that watches a database for uploaded files to import. When a new file is found, the corresponding SSIS package is run from the file system with variables passed through. I started development as a Windows app and copied the functionality to a service.
The app runs fine. The service does not. I get a "Failure" each time a package is executed. Everything is identical behind the scenes with the obvious exceptions that OnStart and OnStop handlers are buttons in the app. I added a script task at the beginning of one of the SSIS packages to notify me that it is even running at all. It doesn't even hit that initial task.
Again, the app will run all packages just fine. The data is imported and the results return as "Success."
The following is the code executing the package. Any help is appreciated. I've been banging my head on this one for a few days now. (Is there a tag to format a code sample?)
Dim pkgLocation As String Dim pkg As New Package Dim app As New Application Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
Have two C# applications - one WinForms desktop app, the other a WinForms smart device app. Both use SQL Server Compact CE 3.5 to store data locally. Both work just fine.
Now the desktop app needs to open and update the .SDF file that is stored on the Windows Mobile device. (Device will be docked via USB.)
What format would the path to the .SDF look like that the WinForms application would need to specify in order to open it?
I just upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Bussiness and tried to reinstall SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition. After the installation i downloaded (using microsoft windows update) and installed all the service packs for sql and vista available.

Hi all,I have a Windows 2003 server, which is also a terminal server forapplication, with sql 2000 installed. My company has developed anapplication that uses SQL 2000 as its database. The application is aclient/server one. In each client computer there's a link to theapplication on the server. There is no problem with Windows 98,Windows 2000 pro, Windows xp pro clients, but the windows 95 onescannot log in to the database. The log of the application shows thefollowing error:connection error -2147467259. Cannot open database requested in login'database name'. Login fails.Till a week ago the application was running on a Windows 2000 serverwith SQL 2000 install and the W95 clients had no problem connecting tothe database, so my guess is the error has something to do withWindows 2003 server, but what'causing the error?I tried to install a newer version of MDAC (MDAC 2.5, the last versionof MDAC you can install on W95)but with no success. By the way W95clients have no problem accessing shared folder on the Windows 2003server.Any idea?ThanksMarino
We just moved the back end of an Access db to an SQL server and upgraded to Access 2000. A strange problem has arisen. The execution of a query in a certain function seems to be causing the function to prematurely terminate (that is, the query does not complete, and the function does not execute beyond the execution of the query). This error occurs only on workstations loaded with Windows 98. Windows 2000 users are unaffected, and the function runs uninterrupted. The query in question contains date parameters. On the SQL server, dates are enclosed in single quotes (')'s, whereas in Access they are enclosed in pound signs (#)'s. When a query is sent by Access to the SQL server, it is filtered through a program that converts the Access format to SQL-friendly code. Our theory is that this process fails to occur on the machines running Windows 98. Does anyone know why this is occuring?
We have an installation of MS SQL Server (MSDE actually) runnning on a group of Windows 2k machines. Due to IT constraints at the customer site, we are using Windows authentication, but it is all done with local user accounts, not domain accounts.
We have the same user account witht he same password locally created on each machine. This works fine with all the Win2K machines (not the best solution, but under the client's insane IT department, it's all we were allowed to do).
The problem is that we tried to add an XP machine. While we can connect to a DB running on a 2K machine from the XP workstation, the XP system will not accept connections from the 2K systems. We have done a little research and think we have found out why- the 2K systems are sending usernames for authentication, but the XP is looking for the UID- which is different on every system.
We cannot go to SQL authentication, and we cannot use Domain authentication. Is there a way to change XP to authenticate from username instead of UID?
I have been trying to install MS SQL Enterprise V7 on Windows ME the first time it worked but then it stopped with a Connection error message, ever since then I have tried and tried to install it properly but it keeps giving the same connection error.I've successfully installed it on NT and 2000 adv server, so what gives I'm I barking up the wrong tree will MS SQL not install on ME?Or I'm I missing something
