White Spaces In Data Fields

Jan 31, 2006

Hi,
Whenever I insert a record into my table it adds trailing white spaces up to the amount of char's that the field is set to allow.  Obviously I don't want it to do this.
Among other problems then when I get the data back out it has a ton of white spaces, which normally wouldn't be a problem.  i could just use the .Trim() function, but for some reason when I bind the data to a drop down list and use the .Trim() function it doesn't trim the white spaces.
Anyways any ideas on how to make it so the white spaces don't get put in in the first place??  Or any other thoughts on this??  Thanks!

Create Output File In A Specific Layout - Extra Spaces Between Fields

Mar 17, 2014

I'm trying to create an output file in a specific layout. For some reason my output file is adding an extra 10 spaces between the Account Number and the Check Number in the statement below. The rest of the output file looks fine. Where the extra 10 spaces are coming from? I need 1 Filler Space between these fields.

SELECT DISTINCT
CASE p.PaymentMethodID WHEN 10 THEN 'I' WHEN 60 THEN 'V' WHEN 50 THEN 'S' ELSE 'I' END
+ CONVERT(CHAR(1), '')
+ (REPLICATE('0', 20 - LEN(ba.AccountNumber))+ CONVERT(CHAR(20), ba.AccountNumber))
+ CONVERT(CHAR(1), '')
+ (REPLICATE('0', 18 - LEN(p.CheckNumber)) + CONVERT(VARCHAR(18), p.CheckNumber))

[Code] .....

Trim Trailing White Spaces

Nov 14, 2006

Hi All,

I have a column which has some white spaces that I suspect is tab delimeted one. So when I use a rtrim(col1) it would not trim those. So i used a scrip component and wrote this line,

Row.trimDetail = RTrim(Row.detail)

here trimdetail is an o/p column and detail is the input col with the trailing spaces.

but still I don know why the column has that spaces. Can someone help me to figure out what is the problem ?

Thanks in advance,

Removing White Spaces In A Varchar Column

Sep 15, 2005

I have a table . It has a nullable column called AccountNumber, whichis of varchar type. The AccountNumber is alpha-numeric. I want to takedata from this table and process it for my application. Before doingthat I would like to filter out duplicate AccountNumbers. I get most ofthe duplicates filtered out by using this query:select * from customerswhere AccountNumber NOT IN (select AccountNumber from customers whereAccountNumber <> '' group by AccountNumber having count(AccountNumber)[color=blue]> 1)[/color]But there are few duplicate entries where the actual AccountNumber issame, but there is a trailing space in first one, and hence thisduplicate records are not getting filtered out. e.g"abc123<white-space>" and "abc123" are considered two different entriesby above query.I ran a query like :update customers set AccountNumber = LTRIM(RTRIM(AccountNumber)But even after this query, the trailing space remains, and I am notable to filter out those entries.Am I missing anything here? Can somebody help me in making sure Ifilter out all duplicate entries ?Thanks,Rad

Preserve Leading And Trailing White Spaces On Report

Dec 27, 2007

I spent huge amount of time figuring out how to preserve lading and trailing white spaces on report display without success. Can anyone help me here?

My problem is I have data with leading and or trailing white spaces and I need to show it as is. In designer preview it shows correct values. As soon as report is published and accessed on web, it truncates the whitespaces . I had a look at source, it shows values are correctly fetched(with spaces) but are ignored while rendering. I also tried replacing blank space with &nbsp;, however it reads this as &amp;nbsp;.

I am using asp.net 2.0 and SQL serer 2005 reporting services.

SQL Server 2008 :: White Spaces Not Getting Ignored For Plan Guide Matching?

May 1, 2015

In sp_create_plan_guide documentation, it's written:

When SQL Server matches the value of statement_text to batch_text and @parameter_name data_type [,...n ], or if @type = 'OBJECT', to the text of the corresponding query inside object_name, the following string elements are not considered:

White space characters (tabs, spaces, carriage returns, or line feeds) inside the string.
Comments (-- or /* */).
Trailing semicolons

On SQL Server 2008 SP3, I created a plan guide for a query. Now, if I execute the query exactly how it was defined in the plan guide, SQL Server match it and use the plan guide to optimize the query.

However, if I add just a space between a column name and an operator in the WHERE clause, the plan guide is ignored. How come it doesn't ignore the extra space, like mentioned in the documentation?

Reporting Services :: Exporting To Word And PDF - White Spaces Left Out Between Grouped Items

Aug 7, 2015

I have a report which shows up as below,

Product Type - A
Product Name  - 1
Product Price -  1
Product Name - 2
Product Price - 2

Product Type - B
Product Name - 1.1
Product Price - 1.1
Product Name - 2.1
Product Price - 2.1
Product Name - 3.1
Product Price  - 3.1

Similarly i have different Product types and product names and its prices underneath each product type. As you can see, there might be varied number of products under the product type so i am grouping it on Product type. The issue is when i export the report to pdf or word, when ever we have a big group of Product Type( example: Product Type X and it has 10 different Products under it) along with few other smaller groups, the big group tends to jump on to the next page of word or pdf and leaves a big empty space in the previous page. Any way i can break those big groups and  fit  as many as we can on the page and the rest should follow onto the next page rather than leaving the previous page with blank space.

What Is The Difference Between Clustered Index Scan And Table Scan

Jan 29, 2006

How can I improve performance of my search if I am looking in a table with more than ten million rows with a "like query"?

Does putting an index mean only telling the computer to start in a particular order?

if I index all the coloums does my search get faster ?

how can I decide on an indexing strategy?

IF NOT EXISTS (... - EXISTS TABLE : Nested Iteration. Table Scan.Forward Scan.

Sep 20, 2006

Hi,

This is on Sybase but I'm guessing that the same situation would happen on SQL Server. (Please confirm if you know).

I'm looking at these new databases and I'm seeing code similar to this all over the place:

if not exists (select 1 from dbo.t1 where f1 = @p1)
begin
select @errno = @errno | 1
end

There's a unique clustered in dex on t1.f1.

The execution plan shows this for this statement:

FROM TABLE
dbo.t1
EXISTS TABLE : nested iteration.
Table Scan.
Forward scan.
Positioning at start of table.

It's not using my index!!!!!

It seems to be the case with EXISTS statements. Can anybody confirm?

I also hinted to use the index but it still didn't use it.

If the existence check really doesn't use the index, what's a good code alternative to this check?

I did this and it's working great but I wonder if there's a better alternative. I don't really like doing the SET ROWCOUNT 1 and then SET ROWCOUNT 0 thing. SELECT TOP 1 won't work on Sybase, :-(.

SET ROWCOUNT 1
SELECT @cnt = (SELECT 1 FROM dbo.t1 (index ix01)
WHERE f1 = @p1
)
SET ROWCOUNT 0

Appreciate your help.

How To Remove Blank Spaces In Records??

Jun 23, 2005

We imported approximately 2.9 million records from our mainframe server
into our SQL Server but have run into a problem.  The data in a
few of the fields contains both leading and trailing spaces.  An
example of the data would be like this, using periods to represent
spaces:

What we have:

..1A02938.....

What we need:

1A02938  (no spaces)

 Is there some sort of algorithm I can run on the data to remove
those spaces?  The problem is coming up when trying to perform a
SELECT query.  We try something like:

SELECT * FROM PCPIPT0 WHERE PANO20 = "1A02938"  but we get zero
results because of the spaces in the database.  The datatype of
the filed is char(20) because we need some flexibility on the size of
the data stored.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Need To Remove Extra Spaces In Query Output

Sep 15, 2006

I'm using the following command:

osql -E -n -d testdb -i testquery.qry -o "c:Scriptsoutput.txt" -h-1 -w 500 -s ","

With the following query (testquery.qry):

SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT table1.column5, table2.column9
FROM table1, table2
WHERE table1.column4 = table2.column4
AND table1.column1 != "NULL"
ORDER BY table1.column5

All of the columns are cast as char up to 50 characters.

Even if only a field has a few characters, I get a lot of extra white space in my output. I want to get rid of those trailing spaces. I've tried SET ANSI_PADDING OFF, RTRIM(), and CAST(x AS VARCHAR(y)). I still get the same output. What am I doing wrong, what am I missing?

How can I resolve this? The [Firm Number]column is not of a fixed length.

Remove Alpha Chars &&amp; All Spaces In Field [UPDATED]

Apr 5, 2007

Hello,



I need to strip out all alpha chars and spaces in a given field and return only the numbers.

I've tried =CInt(Fields!Info.Value) and get an unexplained error. If the data was formatted consitantly I could simply do a RTrim or Right, but the number strings are not the same, some have spaces as in phone numbers (1 800 555 1212) or don't have a leading 1. Most instances are correct for my purpose (8005551212).



Any help would be appreciated.



UPDATE: Using the Replace function =Replace(Fields!Info.Value, " ","") gets me almost there. Now I should be able to use a Right, 10 function to return my desired value. Is it possible to combine these two funtions together?

How To: Create A Table That Only Allows NULL Fields To Be Updated.

Feb 26, 2008

I need to create a table that only allows fields to be updated if the field value is NULL. Is there anyway to configure a table in this manner?

In the example below the record will be created with a serial number and verification ready flag set to true. Other processes down stream will update the remaining fields as needed but should not update fields that have already been initialized.

Table Definition

USE [DB_AUTOMATED_PACKAGING_SYSTEM]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TBL_LABEL_VERIFICATION](
[SerialNumber] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[VerificationReady] [int] NOT NULL,
[VoidLabelImage] [image] NULL,
[VerifiedBy] [varchar](50) NULL,
[VerifiedDate] [datetime] NULL,
[Verified] [int] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_TBL_LABEL_VERIFICATION] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[SerialNumber] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
