Efficiency Of Sql Server On Searching On Text Field
Jul 26, 2007
Hi
We have a application running on Sql server 2005, which require to browse/search text field. Does anyone know if Sql server's search/browse performance on text field is better than oracle?
The table the application will search on is a customer table that has a 10000 records in it, does this size of table casue a performance problem for sql server 2005 if I index the text field?
Please advise, thanks for your help!

Im building up a query in my code behind. When I execute this query it returns a list of users who match the criteria.BUT, I want to add something extra. In my DB in the tblUserData there's a field "interests" datatype nvarchar(30) which contains the numbers (comma-delimited) of the interestsID in my tblInterests. For example, my interestsfield may contain something like: 1,4,8Now if someone wants to find someone who has number 4 and 8 as interests, how can I search in this textfield?!?I wrote this in a SP, but I'd really like it to be possible from code-behind and build the query myself...declare @s varchar(20)set @s='4,8'EXEC('SELECT * FROM tblUserData WHERE Interests in ('+@s+')')

Select AA, BB, CC, DD from SM9..TableName A Right Outer Join SM9_Experiment..TableName C
On A.IncdTouchedGSF like '%' + C.SM9GroupName + '%'
Where
(
Contains(A.[Description], @KeyWordSearch)
And A.OpenTime Between @StartDate and @EndDate
And C.Classification = @GroupNameClassification

I am using the following plumbing code to search a database column for a keyword. I can't use full-test indexing so I came up w/ this work around. But It has many flaws so I'm looking for a better way. Thx in advance.
'Open sql connection
SqlConnection1.Open()
Dim datareader2 As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
datareader2 = cmdFindRowsWithKeyword.ExecuteReader
Dim strMsg As String
Dim intRowToFlag As Integer
Dim strRowsToGet As String
Dim strKeywordAsTyped As String
Dim strKeywordAllCaps As String
Dim strKeywordAllLower As String
Dim strKeywordFirstLetterCap As String
Dim FirstLetter As String
While datareader2.Read
intRowToFlag = datareader2(0).ToString
strMsg = datareader2(1).ToString
'Assign keyword as typed to variable
strKeywordAsTyped = txtSearchFor.Text
'Assign keyword as typed to variable then convert it to all uppercase
strKeywordAllCaps = txtSearchFor.Text
strKeywordAllCaps = strKeywordAllCaps.ToUpper
'Assign keyword as typed to variable then convert it to all lowercase
strKeywordAllLower = txtSearchFor.Text
strKeywordAllLower = strKeywordAllLower.ToLower
'Assign keyword as typed to variable then convert it so just the first letter is in uppercase
strKeywordFirstLetterCap = txtSearchFor.Text
FirstLetter = strKeywordFirstLetterCap.Chars(0)
FirstLetter = FirstLetter.ToUpper
strKeywordFirstLetterCap = strKeywordFirstLetterCap.Remove(0, 1)
strKeywordFirstLetterCap = strKeywordFirstLetterCap.Insert(0, FirstLetter)
'If the string contains the keyword as typed in all caps all lowercase or w/ the 1st letter in caps then flag that row.
If strMsg.IndexOf(strKeywordAsTyped) <> -1 Or strMsg.IndexOf(strKeywordAllCaps) <> -1 Or strMsg.IndexOf(strKeywordAllLower) <> -1 Or strMsg.IndexOf(strKeywordFirstLetterCap) <> -1 Then
cmdFlagRowsWithKeyword.Parameters("@recid").Value = intRowToFlag
SqlConnection2.Open()
Dim datareader3 As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
datareader3 = cmdFlagRowsWithKeyword.ExecuteReader
datareader3.Close()
SqlConnection2.Close()
End If
End While

Hi,
I'm importing an Access database to SQL Server 2000.
The issue I ran into is pretty frustrating... All Memo fields that get copied over (as Text fields) appear to be fine and visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager... except when I display them on the web via ASP - everything is blank (no content at all).
I didn't have that problem with Access, so I ruled out the possibility that there's something wrong with the original data.
Is this some sort of an encoding problem that arose during database import?
I would appreciate any pointers.

Hi all,
i've a reasonable amount of experience with MS Access and less
experience with SQL Server. I've just written an .NET application that
uses an SQL Server database. I need to collate lots of data from around
the company in the simplest way, that can then be loaded into the SQL
Server database.
I decided to collect the info in Excel because that's what most people
know best and is the quickest to use. The idea being i could just copy
and paste the records directly into the SQL Server database table (in
the same format) using the SQL Server Management Studio, for
example.
Trouble is, i have a problem with line feed characters. If an Excel
cell contains a chunk of text with line breaks (Chr(10) or Chr(13))
then the copy'n'paste doesn't work - only the text up to the first line
break is pasted into the SQL Server database cell. The rest is not
pasted for some reason.
I've tried with MS Access too, copying and pasting the contents of a
memo field into SQL Server database, but with exactly the same problem.
I've tried with 'text' or 'varchar' SQL Server database field formats.
Since i've no experience of using different types of databases
interacting together, can someone suggest the simplest way of
transferring the data without getting this problem with the line feeds?
I don't want to spend hours writing scripts/programs when it's just
this linefeed problem that is preventing the whole lot just being
cut'n'pasted in 5 seconds!
cheers

Hi all,
I have a very big database with me. This database has large number of tables and each table has n number of fields.
My trouble now is that I desire to search for a field name called 'empname'. Is there any query possible for me to search all tables and return me the table names which contain fields which match with 'empname'. Adding essence to the porridge I would like to know if I specify something like '%pnam%' it should match any field name which contains 'pnam' as a portion of its name. Is all these possible ??
Thanx for any help in advance,
Regards,
tvks

Hi again!
I have a products table with product attributes in a second table,
together they describe a full product. I have a product title, a
list of providers, description text, and keywords. I would like
to do a search across these fields, and so far my research has shown
that the Full Text Search component of SQL Server is the way to
go. However, I am not sure this will be possible based on what is
installed on the hosted server, so I am wondering if there is a unique,
cool way of doing this without Full Text Search?
Thanks,
jr.

I'm using the .NET Framework 1.1 together with SQL Server 2005 Beta.
I have a search page where you can search a db using a number of fields or combination thereof. Three are text fields (patient id, surname, forename) and I can do any search using one criteria or any combination without any problem.
However, I'd also like to search on a dob (datetime field in SQL Server) and I'm having real problems in making this work. The dates are stored in the following way in SQL Server: '1938-05-31 00:00:00.000', whilst they are displayed as 'dd/mm/yyyy' on a web page, which I guess corresponds to my regional settings.
My code is shown below. I 've tried any number of combinations for the dob string with no success. I do not get any error, just no records are returned.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong and how to correct it before this drives me crazy?!
TIA for any help.
P.S. chxPatID, chxSurname etc are all checkboxes.
<code starts>
If chxPatID.Checked Then
strSQL = strSQL & " patid= '" & txtPatID.Text & "' "
strAND = " AND "
End If
If chxSurname.Checked Then
strSQL = strSQL & strAND & " surname ='" & txtSurname.Text & "' "
strAND = " AND "
End If
If chxForename.Checked Then
strSQL = strSQL & strAND & " forename='" & txtForename.Text & "' "
strAND = " AND "
End If
If chxDoB.Checked Then
strSQL = strSQL & strAND & " dob= " & CDate(Year(txtDoB.Text) & "-" & Month(txtDoB.Text) & "-" & Day(txtDoB.Text)) & ""
End If
</code ends>

I have a varchar column which containd comma delimited values like
Rec# Fruits
1 Apple, Peach, Strawberry
2 Orange, Mango
3 Banana, Grape
...........
Now i have to add search facility so that a user could search for more than 1 fruit at a time. I have a Stored Procedure which returns records from this table. that SP has a Parameter @SearchFruit Varchar(500) and the user could pass in values like 'Apple, Mango' to this parameter.
Now how should i write the SQL so that i get back the records Rec# 1 & 2 since apple is there in 1st record and mango is there in the 2nd ??
I know if a put the comma delimited values as individual records in a temporary table and also do the same for the parameter values then i can get the desired results. But i want to avoid doing that. Any other way ?
Thanks
Sumit.

I need to find a better way to find all parts from a particular category. Each part can appear in multiple categories.
Currently, I use the id of a catagory and search the txtCatagory field in the position of the id.
I have included the query string for you to see.
SELECT * FROM tblParts
WHERE SUBSTRING(txtCategory,@CatId, 1) = '1'
ORDER BY PartNum ASC
txtCategory is Data Type Text
This currently does work, however is causing some performance problems with my ISP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to run a full text serach on one field, a Varchar 2000.
say the field contains:
(before you break the seal of your new product box, please be careful to read all the instructions) ...for example
I search for keywords that may be in this field
Like:
product box
seal
instructions
and this row is included in the result set
but I would like to leave out words like all pronouns and 'a' and 'I' ...words that aren't going to matter to the search.
Does someone know where I can stgart in doing this full text searching?
Thanks,

I've assumed responsibilty for a sqlserver 2000 that has many databases and has only 1 database that uses full text searching. That 1 application now wishes for me to update the noise words file to remove the single characters.
As far as I can tell, no other application is using the full text searching since I don't see any catalogs created for any of them.
So, if no other databases and applications in this sqlserver have catalogs created for them, can I safely assume that changing the noise words file will not impact any of them even if the other databases do have text fields in some tables?

Everyone seems to think this needs something elaborate:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_FindText @text varchar(8000), @findtype varchar(1)='P' AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
IF @findtype='P' SELECT DISTINCT Len(SubString(text,1, PatIndex('%' + @text + '%', text)))-Len(Replace(SubString(text,1, PatIndex('%' + @text + '%', text)),char(13),''))+1 AS Line,
--PatIndex('%' + @text + '%', text) AS Position,
OBJECT_NAME(id) AS ProcName
FROM syscomments
WHERE text like '%' + @text + '%'
ORDER BY ProcName, Line
IF @findtype='C' EXEC('SELECT TABLE_NAME + ''.'' + COLUMN_NAME AS TableColumn FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE COLUMN_NAME LIKE ''%' + @text + '%'' ORDER BY TableColumn')
IF @findtype='T' EXEC('SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME LIKE ''%' + @text + '%'' ORDER BY TABLE_NAME')
GO
It not only searches procedure and view definition text, it will also find tables, views, and column names:
EXEC sp_FindText 'myTable' --or-- EXEC sp_FindText 'myTable', 'P' --finds procedures/views containing 'myTable' in their definition/code
EXEC sp_FindText 'myTable', 'T' --finds tables/views containing 'myTable' in their name
EXEC sp_FindText 'myCol', 'C' --finds columns containing 'myCol' in their name
It's pretty easy to modify and extend, and probably doesn't need dynamic SQL either. It returns line numbers for views and procedures, but these can be incorrect if the procedure or view contains over 4000 characters of code. It does not search tables for values, it's strictly for finding object names.

Hi i am really new to full text searching, I have created a catalog using:
sp_fulltext_catalog 'textcatalog','create'
and now i want to add a table with:
sp_fulltext_table 'Product', 'create','textcatalog', 'ProductID'
where product is a table in my database and productID is the primary key to that table. The primary key cannot be null,
But i get an error:
'ProductID' is not a valid index to enforce a full-text search key. You must specify a unique, non-nullable, single-column index.
Can any one point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance

Hi
I've used CONTAINS on a varchar field.
in SQL SERVER 2000
the query was "Select name from description where CONTAINS(name,' "donot*" ')
say if I search for "Select name from description where CONTAINS(name,' "donot a*" ')
---it doesn't return rows.
as might be it is seeing that 'a' as the starting letter of AND key word which is used in CONTAINS
but how to tell that it is my next letter in the search
Really I need more clarity on this...
Thanxs in advance

Hi,
I am building a website in ASP.net C# for a university project, and would like to search a table (Member) for a field (UserName) using a session variable Session["sUserName"]. If that field is null, then I would like to insert that session variable into the field to start to create a new user. However, I am getting errors saying that I am using invalid expression terms. My code is;
//Create the Command, passing in the SQL statement and the ConnectionString queryString = "SELECT UserName FROM Member WHERE (UserName = @myUsername); ";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(queryString, sqlConn);cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@myUsername", Convert.ToString(Session["sUserName"])));
//If UserName is null, display confirmation, else display errorif (UserName == null) ;
{UserNameCheckLabel.Text = "Username okay";
String queryString = "INSERT INTO Member (UserName) VALUES(@myUsername); ";SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(queryString, sqlConn); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@myUsername", Convert.ToString(Session["sUserName"])));
}else;
{UserNameCheckLabel.Text = "That username is in use";
}
I have a feeling I should be checking the database for the UserName, but I'm not sure whether to put this in the SELECT statement part or as a method... I would be most grateful for any advice!
Many thanks,
Chima

searching on a table or database the option that I'm supposed to choose
is grayed out which means I can't select it. What's wrong? What do I
