Problem Saving/retrieving Unicode Characters NVARCHAR With Unicode Collation (java Jdbc)
Aug 8, 2006I'm connecting to a SQL Server 2005 database using the latest (beta) sql server driver (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver 1.1 CTP June 2006) from within Java (Rational Application Developer).
The table in SQL Server database has collation Latin1_General_CI_AS and one of the columns is a NVARCHAR with collation Indic_General_90_CI_AS. This should be a Unicode only collation. However when storing for instance the following String:
‚¬_£_ÙÚÜÛùúüû_ÅÆØåæøߣÇçÑñ_¼½¾_ЎўЄєÒ?Ò‘_прÑ?туф_ЂЉЊЋ
... it is saved with ? for all unicode characters as follows (when looking in the database):
‚¬_£_ÙÚÜÛùúüû_ÅÆØåæøߣÇçÑñ_¼½¾_??????_??????_????
The above is not correct, since all unicode characters should still be visible. When inserting the same string directly into the sql server database (without using Java) the result is ok.
Also when trying to retrieve the results again it complains about the following error within Java:
Codepage 0 is not supported by the Java environment.
Hopefully somebody has an answer for this problem. When I alter the collation of the NVARCHAR column to be Latin1_General_CI_AS as well, the data can be stored and retrieved however then of course the unicode specific characters are lost and results into ? So in that case the output is as described above (ie ‚¬_£_ÙÚÜÛùúüû_ÅÆØåæøߣÇçÑñ_¼½¾_??????_??????_????)
We would like to be able to persist and retrieve unicode characters in a SQL Server database using the correct JDBC Driver. We achieved this result already with an Oracle UTF8 database. But we need to be compliant with a SQL Server database as well. Please help.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Sep 9, 2015I have an SSIS package that pulls data from a MYSQL DB (Using RSSBus for Salesforce in SSIS to accomplish this). Most of the columns are loading properly, but I have many columns that I need to convert.
I have been using the Data Conversion dataflow task in SSIS to convert the rows.
I have 2 data conversions that work on most of the columns, but the DESCRIPTION column continues to return an error saying "Cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode types", regardless of what I choose on the Data Conversion task. So, basically I want to dump this column data into a SQL table with NVARCHAR datatypes. Here is what I am doing in my SSIS package...
1) Grab subset of data from SOURCE
2) Converts to TEXTSTREAM. (Data Conversion)
3) Converts to STRING. (Data Conversion)
4) Load Destination table. (OLE DB Destination)
I have also tried to simply convert the values to STRING, but that doesn't work either.
So, I have 2 Data Conversions working here that process most of the data correctly. What I can do to load the DESCRIPTION column?

Apr 6, 2006I have an Excel Source component hooked to an OLE DB Destination component in my SSIS 2005 Data Flow Task. After I mapped the excel columns to the OLE DB table columns i get these errors below. I noticed that for the first error, the Excel Field format (when you mouse over the column name in the mappings section in OLE DB component) is of type [DTWSTR] and the corresponding SQL field from my SQL table that it's mapping to is of type [DT_STR] when mousing over that field in the mappings in the properties of my OLE DB component. All table fields in SQL Server for the table I'm inserting into are of type varchar.

Integration Services :: Cannot Convert From Unicode To Non-unicode Error
May 7, 2009For packages that I have created to read Oracle 10g tables, that work fine with debugging in 32-bit mode, I get an error message on all string fields when I try to run in 64-bit mode. An example error message is:[OLE DB Source [1]] Error: Column "ACCT_UNIT" cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types.Another interesting warning included is:[OLE DB Source [1]] Warning: The external columns for component "OLE DB Source" (1) are out of synchronization with the data source columns. The external column "ACCT_UNIT" needs to be updated.I cannot even try to convert this data with a Data Conversion item because the (red) error is on the OLE DB Source item and stops there. It doesn't matter what the destination is or even if there is a destination in the package yet.I'm using Oracle Provider for OLE DB, Oracle Client version 10.203 for 32-bit and Oracle Client 10.204 for 64-bit.Oracle is 10g on a UNIX 64-bit server and the data is not unicode.I'm using SQL Server Enterprise 2008 (10.0.1600) on Windows Server 2008 Standard SP1 on a 64-bit server.The packages work fine in 32-bit mode and the data is not unicode data. When I change Run64BitRuntime to True in the Debugging Property Page, I get the error on the OLE DB Source item. I also get the error when I schedule a package to run using the SQL Server Agent.

I have spent countless number of hours trying to solve the issue, but to no vail. My problem is SSIS throws "cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types" when i am try to transform data from DB2 to SQL Server 2005. And please note, i tried all possibilities like changing the destination field which is in SQL Server 2005 to nvarchar and also text. But so far no help. And i also looked at previous posts which did not help me either.
Thank You in advance.
Comparing Nvarchar(max) Column Using Like To Non-ASCII Range
Sep 25, 2006Our database defines the long_value column as nvarchar(max). I want to find out which rows actually contain non-ASCII characters in that column, but this clause also returns rows with only ASCII characters:where long_value like (N'%[' + nchar(128) + N'-' + nchar(65535) + N']%')
What am I doing wrong?
SQL Server 2008 :: Identifying ASCII Characters In NVARCHAR Columns
May 25, 2010I have an issue where I am storing various international characters in nvarchar columns, but need to branch the data at one point of processing so that ASCII characters are run through an additional cleansing process and all non-ASCII characters are set aside.
Is there a way to identify which nvarchar values are within the ASCII range and can be converted to varchar without corruption? Also, the strings may contain a mix of english and international character sets, so the entire string must be checked and not just the first character.
i.e.
Pass:
'Hello', 'abc123'
Fail:
'太平市', 'abc太123'
Problem With BULK INSERT ASCII File Into Nvarchar Column
Aug 21, 2007
Hi,
I have a problem with BULK INSERT. I created the following table:
Code Snippetcreate table Test
(id char(4), name nvarchar(16), last char(1))
I am trying to bulk insert data from ASCII (not unicode) file with only two rows:
0011First name
0018Second name
Since it is a fixed length file, I am using the following format file:
Code Snippet
8.0
3
1 SQLCHAR 0 4 "" 1 ID HEBREW_CI_AS
2 SQLCHAR 0 16 "" 2 NAME HEBREW_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "
" 3 Last HEBREW_CI_AS
With bcp utility everything works just fine!
Code Snippet
bcp Demo.dbo.test in c: est -T -f c: est.fmt
But when I use BULK INSERT in the following form:
Code Snippet
BULK INSERT Test FROM 'c:Test'
WITH
(
FORMATFILE='c:Test.fmt',
CODEPAGE='OEM'
);
I am getting error
Server: Msg 4863, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk insert data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 2 (name).
Now, one interesting thing: if I change the name field from nvarchar to varchar, it is working with BULK INSERT as well.
Can anybody explain what is going on here?
I am using MS SQL 2000 and MSDE
Thanks in advance,
Eugene.
Easier Way To Convert Non-Unicode To Unicode
Nov 8, 2006I have built a large package and due to database changes (varchar to nvarchar) I need to do a data conversion of all the flat file columns I am bringing in, to a unicode data type. The way I know how to do this is via the data conversion component/task. My question is, I am looking for an easy way to "Do All Columns" and "Map all Columns" without doing every column by hand in both spots.
I need to change all the columns, can I do this in mass? More importantly once I convert all these and connect it to my data source it fails to map converted fields by name. Is there a way when using the data conversion task to still get it to map by name when connecting it to the OLE destination?
I know I can use the wizard to create the base package, but I have already built all the other components, renamed and set the data type and size on all the columns (over 300) and so I don't want to have to re-do all that work. What is the best solution?
In general I would be happy if I could get the post data conversion to map automatically to the source. But because its DataConversion.CustomerID it will not map to CustomerID field on destination. Any suggestions on the best way to do this would save me hours of work...
Thanks.

May 5, 2006I am working on a project that will be mimicking an existing interface that we have with one our our clients. That interface today sends EBCDIC packed fields. We do not want to introduce changes to the external clients interface file when we rebuild it in SQL 2005 Integration Services and I need to find out how I can take ASCII data and convert it to the host (mainframe) representation, which is what we currently provide to our external client using Integration Services.
Has anyone had to do this? If so, can I accomplish it natively with SSIS, or do I need to look to a third party vendor for a component?

N Apply UNICODE On Nvarchar But On A Parameter
Apr 4, 2008Hi,
Hello everybody ...
I have a little problem with sqlserver.
When I call my procedure by asp, I send my parameters.
The parameters are nvarchar and arrive as parameter... like
@sentence which is '??t???'.
But I dont know how to apply unicode with parameter @
I explain:
Is it possible to do something like that ... obviously not:
IF @CountryNr = 14
SET @Sentence = N&@Sentence
OU
SET @Sentence = N+@Sentence
Cheers,

Apr 10, 2008When I tried to insert armenian by doing the following
insert into tablex (field1) values (N'testdata')
it does not display in query analyzer or in the database as armenian.
When I copy this to word it does not convert it.
What else am I supposed to do to get that information to redisplay the correct way and I would appreciate any tutorials or samples you can show or direct me to.

Search String Field (nvarchar) For Unicode Characters
Nov 8, 2006MS SQL 2000. Does anyone know how to find all rows where an nvarchar column contains a specific unicode character? Is it possible without creating a user defined function? Here's the issue. I have a table Expression (ExpID, ExpText) with values like 'x < 100' and 'y ≤ 200'. where the second example contains Unicode character 8804 [that is, nchar(8804)]. Because it's unicode, I don't seem to be able to search for it with LIKE or PATINDEX. These fail:
SELECT * FROM Expression WHERE ExpText LIKE '%≤%' -- no recordsSELECT * FROM Expression WHERE PATINDEX('%≤%', ExpText) -- no records
However, SELECT PATINDEX('%≤%', 'y ≤ 200') will return 3.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Cannot Convert Between Unicode And Non-unicode
Jan 4, 2006I keep getting the error message below when attempting to import a text file (flat file) to an SQL Server Destination using SSIS. This database has recently been migrated from SQL Server 2000 (where I used a DTS Package that worked fine). I plan on doing further manipulation to the file after importing but have so far tried to keep one step at a time. I have tried using a smaller files and different tables but still get a similar response. I believe that the encoding of the text file is ANSI. If it is relevant the database collation is Latin1_General_CI_AS (the same as it was when 2000). Any help anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated!!!

VARCHAR Vs NVARCHAR
May 16, 2006So I have an existing table that looks like:
ID BIGINT
VAL VARCHAR(128)
I am converting this table to something that will be multi language compliant. My question is, I know that NVARCHAR's take double the space of a VARCHAR. Do I actually need to double the length of the VAL field to store the same amount of data or does the DB handle that?
Basically I want to store a 128 character NVARCHAR.. do I need to set my table up like this:
ID BIGINT
VAL NVARCHAR(256)
or
ID BIGINT
VAL NVARCHAR(128)

Jun 19, 2004Hello again everyone....
I have another question for everyone....
I am currently cleaning up my database to get its total size down and am not sure how nvarchar and varchar work exactly.
When defining the length of a varchar or nvarchar in enterprise manager, will that effect the size of the entry (as far as data size) no matter what the length of the entry? In other words, will there be a difference in Data Size for an entry with the length of 4 characters with a definition of varchar(4) versus an entry with the length of 4 characters with a definition of varchar(50).
****If there is no difference, is there any reason in trying to best guess the size to give nvarchar or varchar columns? It would seem easier to just define the lengths of columns which need variable lengths to 200 or 400 just to save time in not trying to best guess what the size might be...*****
Thanks ahead for any help...

Conversion From Varchar To Nvarchar
Aug 4, 2006Hi,
Can someone please explain to me how the datapages in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 works. The pages are supposed to be 8K, that is 8192 bytes of which only 8060 are accessible for data storage (due to overhead).
Now, I currently have a table containing 8 fields. Two of these fields are varchar and should be converted to nvarchar. One of the varchar fields is limited to 255 characters and the other to 4000 characters. When I convert the 255 characters field to nvarchar it works just fine, but when I want to convert the 4000 characters field I get an error from MS SQL saying that it gets to big. Is the error only for the 4000 characters field (which growths to 8000 bytes when using nvarchar instead of varchar) or must the whole table fit into one datapage?
Could a blob maybe solve my problem, or will I face new problems when storing unicode characters in a blob?
Thanks in advance
To Varchar Or NVarchar, That Is The Question
Jan 14, 2006I have a table with a Varchar field that will contain encrypted data. Since each byte can have a value from 0 through 255, can I use Varchar or should I change the field to NVarchar? The reason I ask is that during testing, the Varchar field sometimes is truncated, supposed to be 16 bytes but ends up as 5 or 6 or something less than 16.
