Hello,
I am trying to run a query
select logid, count(logid) from temp2
group by logid
order by logid
compute sum(count(logid))
when I get the result the numbers are being truncated
eg instead of 10471066 it shows 104710 so last two digits
get truncated. Any ideas or hints appreciated.
Thanks

I have a report with a column which contains either a string such as "N/A" or a number such as 12. A user exports the report to Excel. In Excel the numbers are formatted as text.
I already tried to set the value as CDbl which returns error for the cells containing a string.
The requirement is to export the column to Excel with the numbers formatted as numbers and the strings such as "N/A' in the same column as string.
Any suggestions?

I have a table with a column ID of ContentID. The ID in that column is all NULLs. I need a way to change those nulls to a number. It does not matter what type of number it is as long as they are different. Can someone point me somewhere with a piece of T-SQL that I could use to do that. There are over 24000 rows so cursor change will not be very efficient.
Thanks for any help
I have an 'ID' column. I'm up to about ID number 40000, but not all are in use, so ID 4354 might not be in any row. I want a list of all numbers which aren't in use. I want to write something like this:
select [numbers from 0 to 40000] where <number> not in (select distinct id from mytable)
but don't know how. Any clues?
I'm trying to write data to excel from an ssis component to a excel destination.
Even thought I'm writing numerics, every cell gets this error with a green tag:
Convert numbers stored as text to numbers
Excel Cells were all pre-formated to accounting 2 decimal, and if i manually type the exact data Im sending it formats just fine.
I'm hearing this a common problem -
On another project I was able to find a workaround for the web based version of excel, by writing this to the top of the file:
<style>.text { mso-number-format:@; } </style>
is there anything I can pre-set in excel (cells are already formated) or write to my file so that numerics are seen as numerics and not text.
Maybe some setting in my write drivers - using sql servers excel destination.
So close.. Thanks for any help or information.
Hi
I have an SP, which queries a table and correspondingly outputs an ntext column. Before executing this SP. I used "save results as " option under Query analyzer tool bar. So that, when ever i execute this SP I can store the value under a file. The query is executing fine , but it is truncating the output of this ntext value.
Does any body knowsfaced this issue?

Hi!
In the results of our queries, the datas in the fields are truncated to 255 chars.
Is there a parameter to change to get the entire field? Their format is varchar 8000 and the fields are longer than 255 characters in the db.
Thanks for your help.
Recently we've upgraded SQL 7.0 to SQL 2000. We use a Database Maintenance Plans to backup the databases and transaction logs.

I am relatively new to SQL server. I am tring to send some decimalvalues to the database using a stored procedure with parameters of typeDECIMAL. Every time it inserts the values into the database thedecimals are truncated. I saw on the MSDN library that you have to setthe precision and scale values b/f you run the stored procedure.

I have a problem with a NVARCHAR(MAX) parameter being truncated.
The signature of the UDF is:
[SqlFunction(FillRowMethodName = "SplitFillRow",IsPrecise=true,IsDeterministic=true,
DataAccess = DataAccessKind.None,TableDefinition = "pos INT, token NVARCHAR(10) ")]
public static IEnumerable SplitText (SqlChars input, SqlString strDelimiter)

and deployed as:

But it is still being truncated to 8000 characters. I tried using a sqlstring or using

I am out of ideas...anyone with a tip?

I have a standard asp.net form and a single database table that I’m trying to pass data into. There are three nvarchar fields of lengths 50, 150, and 2400. Whenever I do an insert or update it truncates all data except for the first character. So if I pass “asdfasdf�, the db field will only receive “a�.
The data going from the form is correct; it gets truncated somewhere after the ExecuteNonQuery() call.
Here is the c# code:
public bool InsertCareer (DataRow row) {
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connStr);
try {
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandText = storedProcs[(int)StoredProcedures.Insert];
cmd.Connection = conn;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@pkCareerID", row[0]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@jobTitle", row[1]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@postedDate", row[2]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@submitBy", row[3]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@department", row[4]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@description", row[5]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@intranet", row[6]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@public", row[7]);
conn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
return true;
} catch (Exception ex) {
//… stuff
return false;
} finally {
conn.Close();
}
}
This is the sproc code:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.zak_CareersIU_sp
@pkCareerID int,
@jobTitle nvarchar,
@postedDate datetime,
@submitBy datetime,
@department nvarchar,
@description nvarchar,
@intranet bit,

INSERT INTO zak_Careers
(jobTitle, postedDate, submitBy, department, [description], intranet, [public])

Hi,
I have hit a brick wall with this. My code is as below
public void fillCustomer()
{
string connectionString = "server='local'; trusted_connection= true; integrated security=sspi; database='Mrbob'";
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection dbConnection = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString);
string queryString = "SELECT * FROM [Customer] WHERE ([CustomerID] = @CustomerID)";
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand dbCommand= new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand();
dbCommand.CommandText = queryString;
dbCommand.Connection = dbConnection;
System.Data.IDataParameter param_CustomerID = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter();
param_CustomerID.ParameterName ="@CustomerID";
param_CustomerID.Value = customerID;dbCommand.Parameters.Add("@CustomerID", SqlDbType.Int);
dbCommand.Connection.Open();
System.Data.IDataReader dataReader = dbCommand.ExecuteReader();
dbCommand.Connection.Close();
while(dataReader.Read())
{
customerID = dataReader.GetInt32(0);
date = dataReader.GetDateTime(1);
eposCode = dataReader.GetInt32(2);
}
dataReader.Close();
}
The error I am getting is
Prepared statement '(@CustomerID int)SELECT * FROM [Customer] WHERE ([CustomerID] = ' expects parameter @CustomerID, which was not supplied.
As you can see from my queryString the @CustomerID parameter is passed in. It seems as if the string is being truncated at 64 characters long. If I remove the paramter to pass the relevant infomration and pass in a customerID I know exists it works.
I am really stumped on this and would really appreciate any pointers

View 6 Replies View RelatedThe transaction log in a database in our SQLSERVER-2000 server hasgrown to 16GB. I cannot shrink the transaction log manually because itsays that the entire 16GB log size is not free. This is strangebecause we backup the transaction log every hour, and that should havetruncated the transaction log, and should have limited the size of thetransaction log; somehow, the entire transaction log is still markedas being used.I was under the impressionI believe that must have something to do with the fact that thedatabase is a part of our nightly replication.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to send a large string to my table where I have typed the field as "text". The data is truncated ( I am only sending about 5kb and it is being truncated to about 4kb). I am using SQL 2000.
My web page is classic.asp and I am sending a parameterized query to my stored procedure.
This is the relevelant code for the parameter I'm sending:
objCmd.Parameters.Append = objCmd.CreateParameter("@PostBody",adLongVarChar,adParamInput,20000,PostBody)
This is the typing in my stored proc: @PostBody text,
I can either INSERT or UPDATE using Query Analyzer and the data is NOT truncated.
Wondering if it was my parameterized query that was causing me trouble, I rewrote the code to send the SQL upfront (skipping the stored proc), and the calling the stored proc from my .asp page passing in the parameters in a string. All three ways are truncating the data.
I have isolated that the truncation is happening on the way in, not on the way out.
Because I can successfully insert/update with QA, I'm wondering if there is some IIS issue that is causing the truncation. But I don't manage our IIS server so I really don't know much about that end of things.
I have been researching this issue for two days with no luck. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

I have an Oracle table which contains a LONG column and I need to migrate the data from this table using SSIS to a table in SQLServer. The column in SQLServer is defined as nvarchar(MAX). This works until I changed the Oracle table to a view. The columns in the view are defined exactly the same as the source table except that it uses a database link to point to the table in a different schema. When executing the data flow task using the view, it gives me the following error message -
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated ".
The error happens only on views with LONG column. Views with only varchar or numeric data types work fine.
Why does it work with a table but not a view which contains a LONG column?
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Hello all,
I have a COM object (written in VB6) that uses the Microsoft Remote Data Object 2.0 (MSRDO20.dll) to perform non-exotic SQL statements (i.e. SELECTs, INSERTs, UPDATEs and DELETE).
I am using SQL Server 2000 with SP4.
Some of our INSERT statements are being truncated within SQL2K...
We have turned on the SQL Profiler to verify this. Using our own logging mechanism, we log the INSERT SQL being passed to SQL2K immediately before executing the MS SQL statement and our log shows that the INSERT statement is indeed correct. However, we get a SQL error back due to malformed SQL. The SQL Profiler shows that the last 10 bytes have been truncated from the INSERT SQL within SQL2K.
The INSERT statement that we are passing is in the following form...
INSERT (column names...) VALUES (...)
There are embedded CRs (0x0D) in the INSERT.
The length of the INSERT being passed to SQL2K is 2243 bytes.
The length of the INSERT from the Profiler is 2233 bytes (the last 10 bytes were truncated).
Here's a brief glimpse of our VB6 code...
Dim Cn as rdoConnection
Dim sSql as String
Set Cn = New rdoConnection
Cn.Connect = "DSN=FrontOff;UID=Front;PWD=Front;DATABASE=FrontOff;"
Cn.CursorDriver = iCursorDriver
Cn.LoginTimeout = 5
Cn.QueryTimeout = 5
Cn.EstablishConnection rdDriverNoPrompt
sSql = "INSERT INTO PLU €¦"
Cn.QueryTimeout = 300
// Log sSQL to our logging mechanism...
Cn.Execute sSql, rdExecDirect
So, is there a maximum length for a SQL statement in SQL2K???
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA!!!
Hi Folks,
After I inserted a row in my Database (row 27) I started getting this error when I try to insert, update or delete the record in the database.
I've searched about the error on google and it says that I should have a field that crossed the limit of characters.
I have only the autoincrement field, two varchar fields and a text field, neither one of the varchar fields crossed the limit, they arent even close. I found in google that one solution would be turn the field that is having problems in a text field, but the only field that actually can be causing the problem already is of the text type.
The exact error I get on VS 2005 when trying to change something in the row 27 is:
"No row was updated.
The data in row 27 was not committed.Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider.Error Message: String or binary data would be truncated.The statement has been terminated.
Corret the errors and retry or press ESC to cancel the change(s)."
I need some help guyz, see ya, hugs.

I am currently developing a simple program that will upload ms-word documents to a database so users can view them within the department.
The program worked prefectly while using sql 2005 with the these fields:
FormId intFileName nvarchar(50)FileBytes varbinary(Max)
This was done in unit testing, now in system testing there is a difference.
A slight downgrade in the database and server software!
We are using sql 2000 on a 2000 server and the FileBytes datatype had to change to the following:
FormId intFileName nvarchar 50 FileBytes varbinary 8000
There is no 'Max' option in sql 2000 for the datatype varbinary.
So when the insert is perform, we get this error message:
String or binary data would be truncated.The statement has been terminated.
I am guessing it has something to do with FileBytes, because this is the only thing that changed.
I just don't know how to solve the problem.P.S.The application is in ASP.NET 2.0
Thanks,

I keep getting the error "String or binary data would be truncated." when I try to insert data into SQL Sever 2005 from an ASP.net page. Having searched thoughout the web, I know this is generally caused because one of the values being inserted is bigger than the size of the field it's going into. But, I have tested this out in many different ways, and this is not what's causing the problem.
I have tried doing the insert as a SQL statement and using the "ExecuteNonQuery" command. I have also tried running this through a stored procedure. Neither works. In both situations, I have captured the TSQL statements via SQL Profiler and run them in a query window. In both cases, the statements work just fine in a query window.
When I try to do the insert via a stored procedure, all of the statements in the stored procedure show up in SQL Profiler, including the final SELECT statement I have the indicates a successful result. But, the data does not end up in the table and the ASP.net page returns an error.
Also, I have run both the Stored Proceure and the SQL insert statement making all of the fields blank as a way of ensuring that no value can be longer than a field's size. But, in both cases I still get the same error.
Here's the line I use when doing a regular insert:
Dim Command4 = New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("INSERT INTO ResourceCenter(UserEmail, UserPassword, Region, FirstName, LastName, Company, JobTitle, Address1, Address2, City, StateProvince, ZipPostalCode, Country, BusinessPhone, WebSiteURL, HowDidYouFind, Industry, WhatTypeOfSolution, CompanySize, NumLogins, LastLogin) VALUES ('" & UserEmail & "', '" & UserPassword & "', '" & Region & "', '" & FirstName & "', '" & LastName & "', '" & Company & "', '" & JobTitle & "', '" & Address1 & "', '" & Address2 & "', '" & City & "', '" & StateProvince & "', '" & ZipPostalCode & "', '" & Country & "', '" & BusinessPhone & "', '" & WebSiteURL & "', '" & HowDidYouFind & "', '" & Industry & "', '', '', 1, " & Now & ")", conn2)
