Null Values In TextData For Events 41 And 42 Using Fn_trace_gettable
Dec 4, 2007
I tried to trace all sql statements performed on a database. I don't use Profiler because this is a SQL Server version distributed with Studio 2008 Express. So I made a trace in TSQL, but most columns in the trace file are nulls...
Then I entered some sql statements using both MS SQL Server Management Studio Express and my ADO.NET application written in Studio 2008 Express mainly by dragging and dropping (so it was autogenerated). I logged in and out.
produced mostly null values, except StartTime and EventClass columns. The EventClass values were 65528, 65534, 65533.
So, the question is, how to get the sql statements that are performed on the server? What is wrong with this procedure? I think I picked up correct events (41 and 42) to show the statements. Besides.. I think all other columns should not be null as well. Why almost everything is null ?
Last question, what are these events 65528, 65534, 65533 ? There are no such numbers in tables sys.events and sys.trace_events and sys.trace_subclass_values. Also I couldn't find them in internet.
Is there a way to determine why the Textdata field has "NULL" for a value.The trace shows multiple "NULL" value records with the longest durations;many greater than 50,000ms. The {} indicate the TextData and Duration onthe line below:rownumber | textdata | Eventclass | ......| Duration |...966 | 15 | {NULL} | 24 smm5413 | 808 | Microsoft Office XP | misview012 | 78| {604636} | 2004-02-11 15:25:12.010 | 4747 | 0 | 469
I have a pivot transform that pivots a batch type. After the pivot, each batch type has its own row with null values for the other batch types that were pivoted. I want to group two fields and max() the remaining batch types so that the multiple rows are displayed on one row. I tried using the aggregate transform, but since the batch type field is a string, the max() function fails in the package. Is there another transform or can I use the aggragate transform another way so that the max() will work on a string?
Hello experts. I have been searching for anything about this but found very little. What are the events logged in SQL Server Error Logs aside from Successful/Failed Login, Backup/Restore/Recover database and, start/init sql server? Can we configure this to log other events, like CREATE or DBCC events for example? If so, how? Thanks a lot.
I have a DTSX package which reads values from a fixed-length text file using a data reader and writes some of the column values from the file to an Oracle table. We have used this DTSX several times without incident but recently the process started inserting NULL values for some of the columns when there was a valid value in the source file. If we extract some of the rows from the source file into a smaller file (i.e 10 rows which incorrectly returned NULLs) and run them through the same package they write the correct values to the table, but running the complete file again results in the NULL values error. As well, if we rerun the same file multiple times the incidence of NULL values varies slightly and does not always seem to impact the same rows. I tried outputting data to a log file to see if I can determine what happens and no error messages are returned but it seems to be the case that the NULL values occur after pulling in the data via a Data Reader. Has anyone seen anything like this before or does anyone have a suggestion on how to try and get some additional debugging information around this error?
Hi,Is there a way to read a trace file with fn_trace_gettable ifthat trace file resides in a path that contains a space? For example,test.trc is accessible with fn_trace_gettable if it resides in c: races, but throws an error if the trace file is in c:my traces.Thanks.-Nada
I have SQL Server 2012 SSIS. I have Excel source and OLE DB Destination.I have problem with importing CustomerSales column.CustomerSales values like 1000.00,2000.10,3000.30,NotAvailable.So I have decimal values and nvarchar mixed in on Excel column. This is requirement for solution.However SSIS reads only numeric values correctly and nvarchar values are set as Null. Why?
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Import_CustomerSales]( Â [CustomerId] [nvarchar](50) NULL, Â [CustomeName] [nvarchar](50) NULL, Â [CustomerSales] [nvarchar](50) NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
can somebody explain me how I can assign a NULL value to a datetime type field in the script transformation editor in a data flow task. In the script hereunder, Row.Datum1_IsNull is true, but still Row.OutputDatum1 will be assigned a value '0001-01-01' which generates an error (not a valid datetime). All alternatives known to me (CDate("") or Convert.ToDateTime("") or Convert.ToDateTime(System.DBNull.Value)) were not successful. Leaving out the ELSE clause generates following error: Error: Year, Month, and Day parameters describe an un-representable DateTime.
My query "select blah, blah, rank from tablewithscores" will return results that can legitimately hold nulls in the rank column. I want to order on the rank column, but those nulls should appear at the bottom of the list
I'm running SQL Profiler to analyze the queries being run against mySQL server. The problem is, that in the Profiler results, theTextData column, which contains the SQL statements executed, istruncated so I don't get to see the entire SQL statements. I've gonethrough all the documentation and menu options but I can't seem tofind a way to make it show me the entire SQL statement regardless oflength. Can anybody help?Thanks,Huey
When running Profiler to save a trace to a table the field 'TextData' getstrunciated. The datatype for that field is as shown:Column name | Data Type | Length | Allow NullTextData ntext 16 yesI can not find a way to set the trace up to create a tablewith TextData oflength greater than 16. This really causes a problem when trying to capturelong running queries for tuning as the query itself maybe truncated. Isthere a way around this?
I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.
What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column.Â
I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.Â
We have Merge Replication publications for SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition subscribers. Some articles have filter statements that send rows to multiple subscribers, based on the value of Host_Name() supplied at run-time.
Our publications work for most subscribers, but we have at least one subscriber who downloads too many rows from one of the filtered tables.
When we run the Select SQL from the article's Filter statement it returns the intended 4 rows for this subscriber. We cut and pasted the filter statement into query analyzer, substituted the subscriber's value for Host_Name(), executed the statement, and got the proper 4 rows for this subscriber in the results.
But when this subscriber syncs her Compact Edition database it downloads 10 rows - the proper 4 rows that the filter statement should pass, plus 6 other rows that she should not download. Our hypothesis is that the Filter statement is not properly applied to the article when this subscriber syncs. Other subscribers get the proper rows when they sync, so the publication's filter statement works in some cases, for some values of Host_Name().
We'd like to see the application of the filter statement at run-time (sync-time), but we have not found the text of the filter statement in SQL Profiler output. Should we expect to see the text of the filter statement in SQL Profiler output? Is there a better way to debug this error?
FYI, here's the text of the article filter statement:
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[TBL_USER] WHERE user_sys_id in (
select u.user_sys_id
from tbl_user u
join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid
where t.terr_no_id like (
select
case (select t.data_access_qnty from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = Host_Name())
when 2 then (select t.terr_no_id from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = Host_Name())
when 3 then (select left(t.terr_no_id,5)+'%' from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = Host_Name())
end
)
)
And here's the statement we ran from Query Analyzer:
declare @id varchar(10)
select @id = 'aultnc'
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[TBL_USER] WHERE user_sys_id in (
select u.user_sys_id
from tbl_user u
join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid
where t.terr_no_id like (
select
case (select t.data_access_qnty from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = @id)
when 2 then (select t.terr_no_id from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = @id)
when 3 then (select left(t.terr_no_id,5)+'%' from tbl_user u join tbl_territory t on u.territory_gid = t.territory_gid where u.user_sys_id = @id)
Hi, I ve a table, I want to fetch certain rows based on the value of a Column. That column is nullable, and contains NULL values.I used the following query,SELECT Col_A FROM TABLE1 WHERE SOME_ID = 1317 AND Col_B NOT IN (8,9) Here, Col_B contains NULL values too. I need to fetch all rows where Col_B is not 8 or 9.Now, if I use "NOT IN", it does not work. I tried reading on it and got to know why it does not work. Even "NOT EXISTS" does not help. But still I've to fetch my values. How do I do that?Thanks & Regards,Jahanzeb
I have tried doing a search, as I figured this would be a common problem, but I wasn't able to find anything. I know that my SP is functional because when I use VWD execute the query outside of the webpage, I get the correct results -however I have to ensure that a field is either entered, or set to <NULL>. In my SET's I want it to use the wildcards. What I want is to do a search (plenty of existing topics on that, however none were of help to me). If a field is entered, then it is included in the search. Otherwise it should be ignored. In my VB I have the standard stored procedure call, passing in values to all of the parameters in the stored proc below: CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SearchDog@tagnum int,@ownername varchar(50), @mailaddress varchar(50),@address2 varchar(50),@city varchar(50),@telephone varchar(50),@doggender varchar(50),@dogbreed varchar(50),@dogage varchar(50),@dogcolour varchar(50),@dogname varchar(50),@applicationdate varchar(50)AS IF @tagnum=-1 SET @tagnum=NULL SET @ownername = '%'+@ownername+'%' SET @mailaddress = '%'+@mailaddress+'%' SET @address2='%'+@address2+'%' SET @city = '%'+@city+'%' SET @telephone='%'+@telephone+'%' SET @dogcolour='%'+@dogcolour+'%' SET @dogbreed='%'+@dogbreed+'%' SET @dogage='%'+@dogage+'%' SET @doggender='%'+@doggender+'%' SET @dogname='%'+@dogname+'%' SET @applicationdate='%'+@applicationdate+'%' SELECT DISTINCT * FROM DogRegistry WHERE ( TagNum = @tagnum OR OwnerName LIKE @ownername OR MailAddress LIKE @mailaddress OR Address2 LIKE @address2 OR City LIKE @city OR Telephone LIKE @telephone OR DogGender LIKE @doggender OR DogBreed LIKE @dogbreed OR DogAge LIKE @dogage OR DogColour LIKE @dogcolour OR DogName LIKE @dogname OR ApplicationDate LIKE @applicationdate ) AND TagNum > 0GO I don't know why it is creating links inside my SP -ignore them. TagNum is the primary key, if that makes a difference. On the webpage, it ONLY works when every field has been filled (and then it will only return 1 row, as it should, given the data entered). Debugging has shown that when nothing is entered it passes "". Any ideas?
I am trying to retrieve data from two different tables. One of the tables has more than 20 columns some of which are null. I would like to retrieve data from both tables excluding the columns which have null values. How do I do this?
Would this take care of null values in either a.asset or b.asset?
SELECT convert(decimal(15,1),(sum(isnull(a.asset,0))/1000.0)+(sum(isnull(b.asset,0))/1000.0)) as total_assets
What's throwing me off is that there are multiple a.asset or b.asset for each unique ID. It seems to work, but I'm not following the logic too well. If I were doing this in another language, I would loop through, summing a.asset and b.asset wherever it's not null for each unique ID.
How can I use "Derived Column" to check if a Datetime value is null or not and if null to insert 00/00/00 instead. ?
The background being that while using a "Derived Column" to change a Column from a (DT_DATE) to a (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) everytime I get a null value it see's it as a error.
And the column in particular has ~ 37 K blank / null fields so Im getting a lot of errors
So far I have tried to use something like
ISNULL([Column 34])
Or
SELECT ISNULL(ID, '00/00/0000') FROM [Column 34]
Or
SELECT ISNULL(au_id, '00/00/0000 00:00') AS ssn FROM [Column 34
but none seems to work [Column 34] being the offending column.
What a normally use is just a simple "(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)[Column 34]" in the expression column, which seems to work well, but here I get alot of errors
I set up a new SQL database file, in that file I allowed nulls, When I went through code to save the record, the exception is saying it doesnt allow nulls.
Before I get to involved with SQL, is it a bad practice to use nulls?
If it is what do you enter in place of the null value,
hi ive got a inert sub where i grab values from text boxes etxthe values are passed to a stored procedure however , one of these fields is a date field , but the field is not required ...so on this line if the date text box is left blank i get an error , not a valid date .Parameters.Add("@actiondate", SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = txtActionDate.Texti have tried ( the actiondate field can take nulls ..)if txtActionDate="" then .Parameters.Add("@actiondate", SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = nothing else.Parameters.Add("@actiondate", SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = txtActionDate.Textend if but this doesnt workwhat is the best way of allowing blank values to be passed to the stored procedure( it doesnt fall over with normal text / varchar fields ) thanks
I have a sproce that accepts null for one of its parameters I can execute the sproce and enter null and it works fine, it returns all rows. When I try doing this with my GridView and the SQLDataSource it does not work. I need some help in understanding how the SQLDatasource wants a null. Here is what the parameter row of the SQLDataSource looks like. <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="EnteredByText" DefaultValue="Null" Name="EnteredBy" PropertyName="Text" Type="String" ConvertEmptyStringToNull="true" /> In my sproce I have setup the parameter as follows; @EnteredBy Nvarchar(50)=Null In my WHERE Clause I have: WHERE (tblClient.EnteredBy = @EnteredBy OR @EnteredBy IS NULL)
I wonder if someone out there can help me. I am writing an ASP application to query a MSSQL database. The users will be able to use one or all of 4 columns. There may be time when the columns are empty (null). How can I write a select query to ignore null values? A rough example of what I am talking about it below. select * from table where value1='something' value2=<null> value3='something' value4=<null> I would like to ignore the null values so that in effect the statement would just do the following. select * from table where value1='something' and value3='something' I realize my syntax is wrong but I think you get the idea. Any thoughts?
I have a stored procedure that allows users to select addresses based on partially supplied information from the user. My procedure seems to work fine in all but a few cases. If a user decides to select all the rows for a particular country the procedure below does not return any rows even if the rows exist. I tracked this down to the fact that for Non US countries I set both the StateCode and Country Code to nulls. . Below is a partial version of my code. Can anyone show me how I can do a "Like" Search even if some of the fields in the row contain null values? Thanks 1 CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Addresses_Like( @SendTo VarChar(50) = Null 2 , @AddressLine1 VarChar(50) = Null 3 , @AddressLine2 VarChar(50) = Null 4 , @City VarChar(50) = Null 5 , @StateCode VarChar(2) = Null 6 , @ZipCode VarChar(10) = Null 7 , @CountryCode VarChar(2) = Null) 8 9 10 Declare @SearchSendTo VarChar(50) 11 Declare @SearchAddressLine1 VarChar(50) 12 Declare @SearchAddressLine2 VarChar(50) 13 Declare @SearchCity VarChar(50) 14 Declare @SearchStateCode VarChar(2) 15 Declare @SearchZipCode VarChar(10) 16 Declare @SearchCountryCode VarChar(2) 17 18 If (@SendTo Is Null) 19 Set @SearchSendTo = "" 20 Else 21 Set @SearchSendTo = @SendTo 22 23 If (@AddressLine1 Is Null) 24 Set @SearchAddressLine1 = "" 25 Else 26 Set @SearchAddressLine1 = @AddressLine1 27 28 If (@AddressLine2 Is Null) 29 Set @SearchAddressLine2 = "" 30 Else 31 Set @SearchAddressLine2 = @AddressLine2 32 33 If (@City Is Null) 34 Set @SearchCity = "" 35 Else 36 Set @SearchCity = @City 37 38 If (@StateCode Is Null) 39 Set @SearchStateCode = "" 40 Else 41 Set @SearchStateCode = @StateCode 42 43 If (@ZipCode Is Null) 44 Set @SearchZipCode = "" 45 Else 46 Set @SearchZipCode = @ZipCode 47 48 If (@CountryCode Is Null) 49 Set @SearchCountryCode = "" 50 Else 51 Set @SearchCountryCode = @CountryCode 52 53 54 Select AddressID 55 , SendTo 56 , AddressLine1 57 , AddressLine2 58 , City 59 , StateCode 60 , ZipCode 61 , CountryCode 62 , RowVersion 63 , LastChangedDateTime 64 , OperID 65 From Addresses 66 Where SendTo Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchSendTo)) + "%" 67 And AddressLine1 Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchAddressLine1)) + "%" 68 And AddressLine2 Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchAddressLine2)) + "%" 69 And City Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchCity)) + "%" 70 And StateCode Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchStateCode)) + "%" 71 And ZipCode Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchZipCode)) + "%" 72 And CountryCode Like RTrim(LTrim(@SearchCountryCode)) + "%" 73 Order By CountryCode, City, AddressLine1, AddressLine2, SendTo

I have a simple table on my webpage which shows data from my database. It all worked fine apart from one part. I wanted the select statement to select only NULL values from a column, as these are classed as open queries. Once I have closed the query a 0 or 1 will automatically be posted and will no longer have a NULL value. I have a simple select statement (which I will post on here when I log in with my work computer) and at the end I have a WHERE Column = NULL. I have also tried WHERE column <> 0.0 AND column <>1.0 and that did not work. If I only did WHERE column <> 1.0, i only get the 0.0 results and none of the NULL results, but if I have no WHERE statement I get all the results including the NULL values.
Hi I have a table in my database and one of the columns is called 'Month'. Here only one month is inserted according to what the user selects from a dro down list. WHat i want to be able to do is find the average of the column 'ScoreOut' on a month by month basis. My code works fine if th database contains at least one row with every month of the year represented. I run into problems when one of the months is not represented. here is my code:string month = "February"; SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True");String selectCommand = "Select AVG(CAST(ScoreOut as float)) from tblRound where Name = '" + lblName.Text + "' AND Month = '" + month + "'"; SqlCommand myCmd = new SqlCommand(selectCommand, myConn);SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(myCmd);DataTable dt = new DataTable();
The field can have null values. But I am not able to insert null values into the database. i tried using subdate="". But it inserts some min value of my calendar popup.
Is there a way that i could insert null values into smalldatetime field of the SQl database.
When I have values for the text string, everything runs smoothly. However, when the database originally had a <NULL> or when I want to delete the currently existing value and replace it with a <NULL>, I get an error message stating... "Input string was not in a correct format".
Back in the old days, when I was using Random Access databases, you just inserted a Char(0). But that doesn't work any more.
Could somebody help me. I know there is a magic bullet, I just don't know what it is.
