Is there syntax that lets you look for all names that include ell in them? That is, in Oracle it would be:
select id from customers where firstname like(%ell%)
Or, is there regular expression support in the select's where clause?
thanks
Hi!
I am developing one web site, in that I can upload files to sql server, it will save the uploaded file in binary type and we can download the files from there. Upto this everything is working perfectly. But now my problem is - i have to implement the wildcard character search in this site. The file name and extension will save on the database in different columns, and one more thing is file name is unique. I confused to implement wildcard search in this site, where i can implement this type of search in database or in my application with c#? So please help me to do this. I dont know that this is the right place to post this question or not. If it is not right place, please guide me to where I can post this. If it is right place, please help me to implement wild card search.
Thanks in advance!
In the below section of code I'm connecing to a SQL database and when I use the "=" in the search it works ok, but when I try to add the ability to use wildcards by changin "=" to "LIKE" its not working
Working code:
Function GetName(ByVal first_Name As String) As System.Data.DataSet
Dim connectionString As String = "server='(local)'; trusted_connection=true; database='FamilyInfo'"
Dim dbConnection As System.Data.IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
Dim queryString As String = "SELECT Names.* FROM Names WHERE (Names.First_Name = @First_Name)"
Dim dbCommand As System.Data.IDbCommand = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
dbCommand.CommandText = queryString
dbCommand.Connection = dbConnection
Dim dbParam_first_Name As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter
dbParam_first_Name.ParameterName = "@First_Name"
dbParam_first_Name.Value = first_Name
dbParam_first_Name.DbType = System.Data.DbType.StringFixedLength
dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_first_Name)
Dim dataAdapter As System.Data.IDbDataAdapter = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
dataAdapter.SelectCommand = dbCommand
Dim dataSet As System.Data.DataSet = New System.Data.DataSet
dataAdapter.Fill(dataSet)
Return dataSet
End Function
Code that I would like to work
Function GetName(ByVal first_Name As String) As System.Data.DataSet
Dim connectionString As String = "server='(local)'; trusted_connection=true; database='FamilyInfo'"
Dim dbConnection As System.Data.IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
Dim queryString As String = "SELECT Names.* FROM Names WHERE (Names.First_Name LIKE '%' + @First_Name '+')"
Dim dbCommand As System.Data.IDbCommand = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
dbCommand.CommandText = queryString
dbCommand.Connection = dbConnection
Dim dbParam_first_Name As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter
dbParam_first_Name.ParameterName = "@First_Name"
dbParam_first_Name.Value = first_Name
dbParam_first_Name.DbType = System.Data.DbType.StringFixedLength
dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_first_Name)
Dim dataAdapter As System.Data.IDbDataAdapter = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
dataAdapter.SelectCommand = dbCommand
Dim dataSet As System.Data.DataSet = New System.Data.DataSet
dataAdapter.Fill(dataSet)
Return dataSet
End Function
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Hi All,
I'm trying to use a very simple SQL String that check if a specific string exist in the DB.
When I do the SQL and use a regular Connection I get the result.
When I use a data set and on the table adapter I need to use the "LIKE %" method I get an error.
What should I write on the table adapter in order to make this search?
ItemID is a type string.
This is my SQL:
SELECT itemID, itemName
FROM Items
WHERE (itemID LIKE @ItemIDTemp)
This sample give no result
or
SELECT itemID, itemName
FROM Items
WHERE (itemID LIKE '%' + @ItemIDTemp + '%')
This sample return an error message
"Data conversion failed. [OLEDB status value (if known)=2]"
What is the right way to do so?
I'm trying to put together a script that would alter a table and add NOT FOR REPLICATION to the identity column on several hundred tables. Since I am unable to write a complex script to automate the entire process, I've decided to do the update one table at a time. Here is a script that I'm working on. I'm getting an error message when I try to run the script. Can someone please show me how to properly use variable with a wild card in a string ? or how to properly add this variables in this script?
DECLARE @Var1 AS CHAR(50), @tbn AS CHAR(50)
SELECT @tbn = 'tablename'
SELECT @Var1 = Name FROM SysIndexes WHERE Name LIKE 'pk%' AND Name LIKE '%' + @tbn + '%'
EXECUTE('ALTER TABLE [@tbn] DROP CONSTRAINT ' + @Var1
ALTER TABLE + @tbn + DROP COLUMN mkey
ALTER TABLE + @tbn + ADD viewkey INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT FOR REPLICATION NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE + @tbn + ADD CONSTRAINT PK_+ @tbn PRIMARY KEY (mkey) WITH FILLFACTOR=90 ON [PRIMARY]
Thanks in advance

I want to retrieve data from SQL containing non English character but fail, can anyone shed me some light?
What I use currently:
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "SELECT ArticleID, "
strSQL &= "ISNULL(Body, '') AS Body, "
strSQL &= "ISNULL(Subject, '') AS Subject "
strSQL &= "FROM Articles "
strSQL &= "WHERE (Subject LIKE N'%' + @Keyword + '%' OR [Body] LIKE N'%' + @Keyword + '%') "
Dim con As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString"))
Dim cmd As New SqlDataAdapter(strSQL, con)
cmd.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@Keyword", SqlDbType.NVarChar).Value = keyword
...
I'm not so sure where should I place the letter "N", I use :
SELECT ArticleID,
ISNULL(Body, '') AS Body,
ISNULL(Subject, '') AS Subject,
FROM Articles
WHERE (Subject LIKE N'%SomeNonEnglishString%' OR [Body] LIKE N'%SomeNonEnglishString%')

Thanks a lot!
I'm new on sqlserver, but now i have a question, how could i find an exact string like "rouse" inside of a larger string that is in one table?, i'm studyng on one university in Costa Rica, but after a few lessons nobody had told my how to do that.
For example if i need to find the string 'rouse' that could be inside of 25 rows or more i know that if i use pathindex sql returns me in what row is but how put that instruction in a select or in a stored procedure.
If someone could help me i'll be very thankfull.
Sorry for my english i know it suck but here we don't have a lot of practice.
I just implemented full text search on a table and it doesn't work like I expected. I am using a stored procedure to search a company name column.
CREATE PROCEDURE swsp_GetCompanyRecord
@companyName varchar(120)
as
begin
select recID, companyName
from TABLE
where contains (companyName, @companyName)
end
I use the stored procedure as follows:
swsp_GetCompanyRecord '"Reynolds Aluminum"' (Quotation marks inside single quote)
If I search for a company (e.g., Reynolds Aluminum), I get the following results:
Search Returns
Reynolds Reynolds Aluminum
Reynolds A Reynolds Aluminum
Reynolds Al nothing
Reynold nothing
Aluminum Reynolds Aluminum
I guess I expected this to work similar to 'LIKE' in that it would return the full company name if I gave it any portion of the name. Is there something wrong with the way I've implemented this?

I have setup full text search on a table. Everything works fine. Now I want to find documents that contain the next string: 'T-150/04'
The query will give zero results. Is there a way to find documents that contain these kind of strings? (slahses and minus)
I use the following query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"T-150/04"' )
If I do this query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"judge"' )
It will work fine. I know it has to do something with the interpunction things (slahs and minus), but I don't know what query may solve my problem.
Also a select * from containstable(jurisprudentie, text, '"T_150_04"' ) doesn't give me the proper result.
The minus sign and the slash are disturbing things. If i search for "150" or for "04" I will find the record, but I would like to speficically search for the exact string "T-150/04". Because these are references to case law issued by the court.
I hope someone can help me out.

Hi all I am rather confused on about using the SQL LIKE statement along with square brackets. If I type the following SQL command in SQL Server 2005:
Code Snippet
SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE Field1 LIKE '%[ggg]%'
All rows from my Table are selected. ^^
If I used this command:
Code Snippet
SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE Field1 LIKE '%ggg%'
No rows are returned. ^^
PLEASE NOTE THE USE OF SQUARE BRACKETS IN SQL LIKE STATEMENT.
Thanks for responses, Onam.
Hi,
I am using Visual Studio 2005. I am trying to create a ASP.net website and use a web form to get the results of an enquiry. It is almost the same as the presentation video on this website called "How to Create Data Driven Website", but I have added a new twist to it. I want to use the "LIKE" instead of "=" in my SQL statement and I want to use wild cards in the parameter value that I enter.
<form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<% dim str as string = "%" & textbox1.text & "%" </%> <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" Visible="False" Text=str></asp:TextBox> <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Submit" Width="87px" BackColor="Khaki" ForeColor="Navy" PostBackUrl="~/Default.aspx" />
and the ControlID of the Datagrid will take in the value of "TextBox2" instead of "TextBox1" as so:
<SelectParameters> <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="TextBox2" DefaultValue="SO06000001" Name="SO" PropertyName="Text" Type="String" />
However the syntax above does not work. May I ask what is the correct syntax?
Thanks.

Hello everyone,
trying to use stored procedure for my datagrid.
in there i have the parameter that i would like to combine with wild character to retrieve some data..Does not work.
Please help to come up with right syntax...
here is the code:
SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, Address, City, Customer_ID, Company_Name, State, ZIP, Phone_Number_1, Phone_Number_2, Email
FROM v2_Customers
WHERE (City = @search_text) OR
(First_Name = @search_text) OR
(Last_Name LIKE '%'+@search_text) OR
(Address = @search_text)
where @search_text is the parameter,
thank you!
I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks

Is there any tool available that can encrypt Credit card numbers or other fields stored in the database? For example, when a customer enters his credit card number or his password on the site, is there a way by which the Front end can encrpt the field before storing it in the database and decrypt it when it the customer requests it, through the application?
Thank you in advance

Hey,
My team is currently building a system for the Windows CE 5.0 platform that uses a SQL CE database to synchronize with a SQL Server 2005 database. During this synchronization process, the application needs to pull down a good bit of data and it reaches its cap for memory. A possible solution for this is to use an SD card for storing the database. However, when the Synchronization process is run, the following SQL Exception Occurs:
HResult = -2147467259
Message = "SQL Mobile encountered problems when creating the database."
NativeError = 28558
Source = "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition"
StackTrace = at System.Data.SqlServerCe.NativeMethods.CheckHRESULT()
at System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication.AddSubscription()
Our Trace
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WnProc()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control._InternalWnProc()
at Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()
at System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
Main
The connection string we're using for the Mobile Database is "data source=Storage CardDatabase.sdf"
Has anyone ever had any problems when trying to perform Merge/Replication on expandable Flash Memory and if so, how did you solve them?
Thanks,

Hi all.
I develop a app on PPC 4.20 using SQLServer 3.1. I developed a o/r mapper whitch auto-creates the Database and Tables using attribute-decorated objects. That all works fine - as long as my Database is in \MyDocuments .
Trying to store the Database in \Storage Card\test.sdf, whitch is absolut neccessary because it will become to big for storing onto device, I get error 25113, "A not supportes operation to host was called" (Translated from German)
When I trie to copy a Database to the SD-Card, inserts are not commited.
Is it not supported to store Databasefiles on a Flashcard?
My development-environment is .net 2.0 sp2, device-emulator v2, Windows XP, vs2005. In the emulator, i have linked a windows-based directory as storagecard.
What am I doing wrong??
class SQLManager
{
private static SQLManager instance = null;
private SqlCeEngine m_cEngine = null;
private SqlCeConnection m_cConn = null;
private SQLManager()
{
m_cEngine = new SqlCeEngine(
"Data Source = \Storage Card\test.sdf");
bool bCreated = false;
if (!File.Exists("\Storage Card\test.sdf"))
{
bCreated = true;
m_cEngine.CreateDatabase();
}
m_cConn = new SqlCeConnection(
"Data Source = \Storage Card\test.sdf");
m_cConn.Open();
if (bCreated)
DoInitialDatabaseSetup();
}
....
}
I have a fact, like this
DimCustomerKey, DimCardKey, Amount
1, 1, 20
2, 3, 30
1, 1, 40
3, 4, 50
2, 3, 50
I want a report like this
1, 1, 40
2, 3, 80
3, 4, 50
Logic :
- Each DimCustomerKey has only 1 DimCardKey
- If DimCardKey = 1, reported amount = max(amount)
- If DimcardKey other than 1, reported amount = sum(amount)
How can I implement this with MDX script ?
How can I implement this inside the CUBE (using scope or calculated member etc...)?

Using shared folder in windows mobile 5 emulator, it is not possible to create a database (sqlserver mobile 2005) in the emulated storage card.
The error "sql mobile made an unsupported request to the host operating system. Minor Err 25133 is raised. Reading or writing file from/to the emulated storage card occurs without error.
Is this a bug of SqlCeEngine?

Hi All,
I have seen some different behaviors when I am writing SQL Server compact edition Database file into SD Memory card or any user removable storage media.
The following Steps for reproducing these behaviors.
1. Set your database location is in the SD Memory card.
2. Create a database and establish session.
3. Writing first record into the database is done
4. Remove your SD card manually from the system
5. Try to write a Second record into the database
6. You will get the error from this "SqlCeWriteRecordProps" API call - This is fine.
7. Put your SD card back into the system.
8. Writing Second record again into the database is done - This is fine.
So far the behaviors are good after that
9. Remove your SD card manually from the system again
10. Try to write a Third record into the database
11. You will suppose to get the error from this "SqlCeWriteRecordProps" API call but you won€™t get that error €“ I don€™t know why?
12. Then Try to write a Forth record into the database
13. You won't get any error from the API call "SqlCeWriteRecordProps" and return status is success.
14. Now put your SD card back into the system.
15. Then write Fifth record but this time its writing record Third, Fourth and Fifth into the database.
Note:
I am clearing (means Free) my record structure everything after calling this function "SqlCeWriteRecordProps". So I don€™t know why its wring Third, fourth and fifth record into the database.
Please Let me know your feedback.
Thanks,
Rajendran

I have typed a query by combining multiple tables to show sum of TotalReceivedAmount by MRN. It also have payment mode which is paid by cash or credit card.
