Char Type In MS SQL

Dec 12, 2005

Dear All,

I am new to MS SQL. One VB application that I need to maintain using it.
There is one problem reported but I couldn't explain: one field is declared
as Char (20), but the application seems able to insert a string with length
even 30. There is no character truncatd when retrieved neither.

However, I cannot simulate the case in the MSSQL database manager. When I executed a SQL script to insert, I was simply not allowed to do so.

Any explanation to the sDid anyone encounter same thing before?
Thanks for any hint.


Regards

Index Creation Causes Error The Conversion Of A Char Data Type To A Datetime Data Type Resulted...

Jul 23, 2005

Hi all,I have a table called PTRANS with few columns (see create script below).I have created a view on top that this table VwTransaction (See below)I can now run this query without a problem:select * from dbo.VwTransactionwhereAssetNumber = '101001' andTransactionDate <= '7/1/2003'But when I create an index on the PTRANS table using the command below:CREATE INDEX IDX_PTRANS_CHL# ON PTRANS(CHL#)The same query that ran fine before, fails with the error:Server: Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted inan out-of-range datetime value.I can run the same query by commeting out the AssetNumber clause and itworks fine. I can also run the query commenting out the TransactionDatecolumn and it works fine. But when I have both the conditions in theWHERE clause, it gives me this error. Dropping the index solves theproblem.Can anyone tell me why an index would cause a query to fail?Thanks a lot in advance,AmirCREATE TABLE [PTRANS] ([CHL#] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,[CHCENT] [numeric](2, 0) NOT NULL ,[CHYYMM] [numeric](4, 0) NOT NULL ,[CHDAY] [numeric](2, 0) NOT NULL ,[CHTC] [char] (2) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE VIEW dbo.vwTransactionsASSELECT CONVERT(datetime, dbo.udf_AddDashes(REPLICATE('0', 2 -LEN(CHCENT)) + CONVERT(varchar, CHCENT) + REPLICATE('0', 4 -LEN(CHYYMM))+ CONVERT(varchar, CHYYMM) + REPLICATE('0', 2 -LEN(CHDAY)) + CONVERT(varchar, CHDAY)), 20) AS TransactionDate,CHL# AS AssetNumber,CHTC AS TransactionCodeFROM dbo.PTRANSWHERE (CHCENT <> 0) AND (CHTC <> 'RA')*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

At The End Of My Rope! Sql 6.5 On NT Type Size 255 Char Limit

Mar 27, 1999

I am so frustrated, I have upsized a data base from access to sql 6.5 and now had to clip data to fit into a 255 field? I have been looking for weeks to find a solution for this.

I am writing a discussion board very much like this one and need the message text to hold more than 255 chars. I have tried to create a table with a blob and text, The text will not allow me to specify the size when creating from a script (ASP) using create table. If I dont specify a size, it creates it as 16?

Been working on this for several weeks and cannot locate anyone that can answer this question, I want to create a column that will hold more than 255 chars.

IS there something in Sql 6.5 that I need to set to allow more than 255 on a text field? What am I doing wrong?

Please respond. Thank you.
Mike

The Conversion Of Char Data Type To Smalldatetime Data Type Resulted In An Out-of-range Smalldatetime Value

Mar 30, 2007

I am using Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Express 2005. The database was converted from MS Access 2003 to SQL Express by using the upsize wizard.



I would like to store the current date & time in a column in a table. This column is a smalldatetime column called 'lastlogin'.

The code I'm using is:



Dim sqlcommand As New SqlCommand _

("UPDATE tableXYZ SET Loggedin = 'True', LastLogin = GetDate() WHERE employeeID = '" & intEmployeeID.ToString & "'", conn)



Try

conn.Open()

sqlcommand.ExecuteNonQuery()

conn.Close()

Catch ex As Exception

MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)

End Try



This code works fine on my local machine and local SQL server. However at the client side this code results in the error as mentioned in the subject of this thread. I first used 'datetime.now' instead of 'getdate()', but that caused the same error. Then I changed the code to 'getdate()', but the error still remains.



The server at the client is running Windows Server 2000 UK . My local machiine is running WIndows XP Dutch.

Maybe the conversion from Dutch to UK has something to do with it. But this should be solved by using the 'Getdate()' function..... ?

Aug 21, 2007

I create two tables:

create table table1
(
col1 char(1)
)

go

create table table2
(
col2 char(2)
)

go

I add some records to two tables after createing operation completed.

Then i use dbcc page command to oversee the structures of data page in two tables.
I found some interest things:
The rows in two tabes take up same space:9 bytes

You can see the "9" on top of the data, for example:Slot 0, Offset 0x60, Length 9, DumpStyle BYTE
or calculate from the offset array



Any suggestions?

Float Type Steals My Decimal Points And Money Type Kills My Query

Mar 28, 2008

Happy Friday!
A while since I have posted a question, and this one is probably real easy.
I am trying to store numeric values from a php form in MSSQL 2000 database. However, the columns are set to float and if the value is 1.00, when entered into the table it is saved as 1

If I change the column type to money, the query fails, with an error message of conversion of datatype varchar to datatype money statement terminated.

anybody know what I need to do? do I need to do something in my query to specify that this is NOT varchar data?

Implement Time Interval Type In Form Of User Defined Type

Dec 7, 2011

Implement time interval type in the form of a user defined type in SS2k8r2? Specifically an interval type described in the book Temporal Data and the Relational Model by C. J. Date at all. As an example, an interval is below:

1/4/2006:1/10/2006

which would mean the time period from 1/4 to 1/10.

I've tried various combinations of codepage and datafiletype on my task component. When I have RAW with Char, I get the error included below. If I change to RAW/Native or codepage 1252, I don't have an issue with the bit; however, errors start generating on the ID and date columns.

I have tried various data type settings on my flat file connection, too. I have tried DT_BOOL and the integer datatypes. Nothing seems to work.

I hope someone can help me work through this.

Thanks in advance,

SK

Msg 6522, Level 16, State 2, Line 1: System.InvalidCastException: Conversion From Type 'SqlBoolean' To Type 'Boolean' Is Not Val

Mar 6, 2008

I created a function called Temperature in VB to be used as a UDF in SQL2005. I get the error listed below. Any thoughts?


CREATE FUNCTION Temperature(@FluidName SQL_variant, @InpCode SQL_variant, @Units SQL_variant, @Prop1 SQL_variant, @Prop2 SQL_variant)

RETURNS Float

AS EXTERNAL NAME Fluids_VB6.[Fluids_VB6.FluidProperties.Fluids].Temperature

Then ran function:


select dbo.temperature('R22','t','e','225.6','0')

Got this:


Msg 6522, Level 16, State 2, Line 1

A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'Temperature':

System.InvalidCastException: Conversion from type 'SqlBoolean' to type 'Boolean' is not valid.

Conversion From Type 'SqlInt32' To Type 'Integer' Is Not Valid]

Jun 30, 2007

Hi all,
I am developing ASP.NET 1.1 application using VB.NET & SQL Server, on my machine I am using SQL Server 2000, and everything is working just fine.
The problem appears when I uploaded the site to the Host, they are using SQL Server 2005, is there any reason for this, I am using casting in the code, and I am sure there is something wrong with the hosting settings.
Any suggestions.

I Really Need A Debate! Type - Attributes Vs Super Type - Sub Types

Apr 22, 2004

I have extensively revied both of the design methodologies and I cannot come up with a single clear reason to use one over the other!

Type - Attributes is where you have a table holding the type categories, type, a table holding the type attributes expected and then a table holding the type attribute value:


tbAutombbileCategories
CategoryID | Category
-------------------------------
1 | Car
2 | Truck
3 | Motorcycle

tbAutomobileAttributes
AttributeID | fkCategoryID | Attribute
-------------------------------------------
1 | 1 (car) | Doors
2 | 2 (truck) | Cab
3 | 2 (truck) | Capacity

tbAutomobile
VIN | Category | Make | Model
-------------------------------------
1 | 1 | Honda | Accord
2 | 2 | Ford | F150

tbAutomobileAttributeValues
fkVIN | fkAttributeID | Value
---------------------------------
1 | 1 | 2
2 | 1 | 0
2 | 2 | 1000


Now the above sure is flexible in the sence that a type of automobile can be added without affecting the database schema, but was if some attributes do not take a numeric value? How do you handle computations on attributes specific attributes? Why would I use this structure as opposed to the super type - sub type as shown below?


tbCategories
CategoryID | Category
--------------------------
1 | Cars
2 | Trucks

tbAutomobile (Super Type)
VIN | fkCategoryID | Make | Model
-------------------------------------
1 | 1 |Honda | Accord

tbCars
fkVIN | Doors |
-----------------
1 | 2

tbTrucks
fkVIN | Cab | Capacity
---------------------------
2 | 0 | 1000


Now, adding new sub types probably isn't very flexible but, now you can specify data types for each attribute instead of using sql_variant, which by the documentation cannot be used in aggregate functions and may render poor result when used with ADO.

Regardless of the method used, alot of back end coding is required for computations, what table to send the attributes, etc...

Can anyone please help me clarify. What method is best and why. So far I am leaning for option 2. More work but seems to be more flexible in the sence of customization of each datatype.

E.G., what if you wanted to specify attributes about the cap that can be supplied to trucks?


tbTrucks
fkVIN | Cab | Capacity | fkCapID
--------------------------------------
2 | Y | 1000 | 1

tbCaps
CapID | Vendor | Price | et....


Any thoughts at all? I thought this would have been a pretty damn hot topic!

Connection Type Limitations When Using XML Data Type In SQL Task

Jul 23, 2007

I'm trying to use the SSIS Execute SQL Task to pull XML from a SQL 2005 database table. The SQL is of the following form:




SELECT
(



SELECT
MT.MessageId 'MessageId',
MT.MessageType 'MessageType',
FROM MessageTable MT
ORDER BY MT.messageid desc
FOR XML PATH('MessageStatus'), TYPE


)
FOR XML PATH('Report'), TYPE

For some reason I can only get this query to work if I use an ADO.NET connection type. If I try to use something like the OLEDB connection I get the following error:



<ROOT><?MSSQLError HResult="0x80004005" Source="Microsoft XML Extensions to SQL Server" Description="No description provided"?></ROOT>



Can anyone tell me why the SELECT ... FOR XML PATH... seems only to work with ADO.NET connections?



Thanks

Walter

CREATE TYPE Failed Because It Could Not Find Type

Hello --

I am having a UDT problem. When I run the Create Type command. I receive the "could not find type" error. I have seen other posts on here related to the default namespace in VB.NET. When I add the namespace I receive "Incorrect syntax near '.'." What is the format of the EXTERNAL NAME parameter. Thanks for any help. Code below...

Incorrect Syntax Error:

DROP ASSEMBLY CadSqlUdtsCREATE ASSEMBLY CadSqlUdtsAUTHORIZATION [dbo]FROM 'E:CAD.NETCADUDTsReleaseCadSqlUdts.dll'WITH PERMISSION_SET = SAFEGOCREATE TYPE dbo.ReportingAreaUDTEXTERNAL NAME CadSqlUdts.[CadSqlUdts.CadSqlUdts].ReportingAreaUDT;GO
