Line Of Code For &"find & Replace/delete&"
Jan 14, 2007
I have mysql type db in which I need computer to search for a key phrase of text that has several hundred occurances inside product table descriptions of products on live site. Once it finds the text, I would like for it to simply remove it, and look for the next occurance of the phrase and repeat the process until all are flagged and removed. I was told their may be a line of sql code that employs such a feature. Can anyone tell me what such a line would be?

I am working with a large amount of text data in a single column. I am in the process of pumping that column of data into a delimited text file. The data in the column has new line characters that I need to remove. I need to data to be in a single line in the text file.
So far the things that I have tried are not working. What I try for removing the new line characters?

To ensure I don't leave orphans floating around in tables when records get deleted (values from one record might link to values in another) how do I find and possibly replace values in tables?For example, if I have a unit of measure table and want to delete the value "inches", how do I look in other tables to find this value and give the user the option to cancel or clear it out. If I don't it will cause controls bound to that value like the dropdownlist to throw an error.

Does anybody know how to search through all stored procedures (in SQL Server 2000) and find and replace text without having to open each one individually in Query Analyzer and doing so one at a time?
That would be so time consuming. I want to be able to change my table names, but I have so many stored procedures allready using the old names. To go and find each name and replacing them is a task I don't want to even try and do.
Thank you to whomever can help.

Hi I run a find and replace in my script to replace some key words.
Little did I know that in SQL Server 2005 that it actually finds and replaces ALL query windows open for that database.
Any ideas on how I can turn this setting off? so that it only finds/replaces within the query window that I am using.
Thanks in Advance!

Is there a way (using a combination of "stuff" and patindex")
to do the following:
replace this --> 1 2 3 4 5
with this --> 12345
or better yet --> 1,2,3,4,5
note: these "spaces" are tab delimited!
any help would be appreciated!

I would like to change a column name, but before doing so would like to search all SPs and Views for occurrences of that name. I would be happy with just a list of them, but even cooler would be the ability to change all the occurrences to the new name.
Thanks!

Howdy all,
I am looking for a good global find and replace utility for SQL Svr. I have tried the Speed Ferret demo which seemed to work well but did not address code outside of the databases such as DTS. Does anybody know of a utility that can go beyond databases?
Thanks

Please help me with the sql script to manipulate the string data:
I need to add <Text> at the beginning and end of the string.
I also need to add <option> before the first and after last occurence of the <Option> string. The original string
<StockNumber>502</StockNumber>
<OptionKey>113</OptionKey>
<OptionKey>151</OptionKey>
<Warranty>1</Warranty>
should look like
<Text>
<StockNumber>502</StockNumber>
<Option>
<OptionKey>113</OptionKey>
<OptionKey>151</OptionKey>
<Option>
<Warranty>1</Warranty>
<Text>
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a problem with the <asp:SqlDataSource. The thing that I try to do is to create a SQL statement. I am not sure if this can be done or not ( just started asp.net).
Something like this:
<%
Dim Test1 As String
Dim Test2 As String
Dim Test3 As String
Dim Test4 As String
Test1 = Request("xmbr")
Test2 = Request("xSEL")
Test3 = Request("xpro")
Test4 = "SELECT [jedan], [dva], [tri], [cetiri], [pet] FROM [pet1] where " & (Test1) & " " & (Test2) & "'" & (Test3) & "'"
%>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:FinGateConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="<%= Test4%>">
The problem is that is giving me an error that I can’t figure out.

I have a table called MessageBoard. It has a column called Messages.
A user can type text including any html tags through a text area ans when he saves it by clicking a button, the content typed by the user is saved in the MessageBoard Table (in the Messages) column. So once saved, the html tags are kept intact. If I have to find and replace certain html tags, what kind of SQL Query I have to write?
For example I want to find all the <pre> </pre> tags and replace it with <p> </p> tags. How do I do this?

Hello all,
Being a relative newbie to large scale MSSQL development, I'd like to try and find out if there is some sort of utility, command or stored proc that I can use to globally change all text within my database's stored procedures.
For example... I would like to change a table name from dbo.xtable... to dbo.ytable... Is this possible?
Actually, I'd be happy with some way to search through all my stored procs to find a specific string (i.e. xtable in the example above).
Any help provided will be greatly appreciated!

I'm looking for a way to pull off a complex find+replace within some code, as follows:
@step_name = N'SAME - OCF Collins (Tabard)', @command = N'DTSRun /~Z0x5F4F7B0688825E7544AC46CFD664F98AC ', @database_name = N'
We have over 200 variants of the above, but following the same syntax (@step_name, Dbname, @Command etc...
Rules:
1) Note the unique identifier "~Z0x5F4F7B0688825E7544AC46CFD664F98AC". I would like it replaced for whatever is between "@step_name = N'" , and @command = N'DTSRun ; (this will form a filename).
2) Note the 'DTSRun /' string. I'd like that replaced with Dtexec /F "D:MyFileLocationFolderHere" (this folder remains constant).

I have a separate list of calendar years with radiocarbon year equivalents in SQL server but no conversion equation. Most but not all of the data I have is in radiocarbon years. I thought at first I could just link the tables but I don't want the data that is already in calendar years to be linked to this conversion table. Is there any way I can either link the two tables with criteria for which data is linked (Only ages that are in radiocarbon years). Or possibly a way to query all ages that are in radiocarbon years and do something similar to a find and replace with a large list of numbers to change?

Hi Guys,
I'm looking into why a particular report is running very slowly.
I call the stored proc which populates the report from query analyzer and request get an execution plan. Runtime is ~12mins
When I take the code inside the stored proc and convert it to inline code (change the parameter declarations to declare statements and procedure call parameters to set statements) and request an execution plan, the runtime is 10 seconds. The results returned are identical.
Comparing the execution plans shows the difference to lie in the SP using one index (returns 100m rows) and the inline code using another (2.5k rows). Apart from this index and the cost for some elements changing by a couple of percentage points the execution plans look very similar.
I've held off pasting the table schema and stored proc in here due to size.
One thing I'd hoped would help, but which didn't make an appreciable change, was to call the stored proc 'with recompile' in case the issue was an old execution plan.
Any suggestions how to stop the query planner making this 'bad' choice? Even some clue as to the source of the difference between the two functionally identical pieces of code might help.

There are plenty of scripts to do this on a per-DB level, but any that will allow me to generate a script for all DB's at once? Mine are split across dozens and it would be much easier to do a loop (using MS_ForeachDB ? )
