Im trying to determine the best way to store data gathered from a form that a user will fill out online. The form is dynamic and is customized at run time based on group-specific criteria. The end result is a form that might have 3 extra text boxes, 2 extra sets of radio buttons and a freeform textbox, whereas for another group, there might be a slightly different set of input fields. Now comes the issue of storing this data. Since the fields can be somewhat dynamic, it could get tricky to define table columns for each possible input field. So Im considering storing the data as xml. Has anyone else had to build custom forms and ended up storing the data as xml ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Microsoft Access 2007 Database I've developed here that was designed for 2 users. Our CEO saw the Access Database and has added about 20 users. Since the additional users have been given access the Backend Access Database is being killed. I've moved the Data to SQL Server 2005 but there are 2 fields timestart and timeend that worked fine in Access but after moving them to SQL Server now show a datetime of 12/30/1899 7:00 AM instead of just 7:00 AM. So If I run a query to show the time schedule for 03/21/2008 I get nothing. How can I write the query so that it only looks at the time portion of those fields?
Thanks for your assistance.
Hi,
I want to store time into a datetime datafield in MS SQL Database, but eventually, it was include a date prefix the time ! I had try the approach on following and get the invalid result.
Approach 1:
Dim strTime as String = "11:59:59 AM"
Output:
01-01-1900 11:59:59 AM
Approach 2:
Dim dtTime as DateTime = "11:59:59 AM"
Output:
1/1/0001 11:59:59 AM <- (error occur: unable add to DB cause date is not between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM)
* The time on the above is accompany with AM/PM.
Approach 3:
Dim strTime as String = "11:59:59 AM"
Dim strStartTime2 = DateTime.ParseExact(strStartTime, "hh:mm:ss", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
Output:
01-01-1900 11:59:59 AM
Approach 4:
Dim strTime as DateTime = "11:59:59 AM"
Dim strStartTime2 = DateTime.ParseExact(strStartTime, "hh:mm:ss", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
Output:
String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.
I know what cause the approach 4 get an error. That is because the strTime is declare as DateTime and that contain "AM/PM" in time.
My Question:
1]Can I just insert the time only to the DB without date?
2]If possible, what should I delcare in the variable(String/DateTime/..?)
3]How can I deal with the "AM/PM"? It must concate with time to identify daytime/night
If you know and have the solution, pls do me a favor and will be more appreciated.
Thank you

INSERT INTO post(Comment, A_ID, Title, Date)
VALUES ('#Comment#', '#A_ID#', '#Title#', '#Date#')
There's my query...
I was hoping there's a way to make the Date, which I have as date/time, get taken from my computer so the user doesn't have to enter anything into the text boxes on my page.
I'm using ColdFusion, and know I can do this through code, but am wondering if it's possible for sql to do this also.
And, if you know of any good ColdFusion sites, I would appreciate it...I really want to nest <cfoutput> tags, but it's really tricky.
Hi all ,
What datatype should I take to store time in a table -- datetime , float or decimal?
my requirement is to store "Worked Hours in a day by an employee" in the field say, 9 hrs and 30 mins.
I should be able to manipulate data in this field such as total hours present in the month, extra hours worked in a day (considering 9 hrs as standard time),less hours worked in a day, and so on
I have reservation database, suppose somebody reserved a resource on 10/12/2006 from 9:00am to 12pm. If anybody else want to reserve the same resource from 10am to 3pm. It will not let them reserver. I would like to check a range in store procedure. Is there has any function to check range in easy way?
Many thanks.
My group is working on a project for school and neither of us have much experience with SQL or ASP. We are pretty much just writing an SQL query to get the data in a certain date range and using ASP to write the tables with the data in it.
Our problem is the SQL database has separate fields for date and time. There is nothing we can do about this because the VB.NET program that populates the tables automatically does this. We can't figure out how to do the BETWEEN statement when they are separate fields. We can do it for a date range and it works fine. An example of what we want to do is show the data from 11:00 am on 04/01/2008 until 4:00pm 04/03/2008.
Does anyone have any idea what we can do? I really want to learn this but it's frustrating because we can't seem to get much help at school.
I had try calling a function, that call a store procedure, repeatly using a for loop, but I notice it will only get the expected part_id in the first time, and return an empty string sub-sequentially without throwing an exception. So I had try using a sql query instead, but the same thing happen. Below is my function, can you point out to me what's wrong?
My original version that calls a store procedure
Public Shared Function getPartId(ByVal part_supplierserialnumber As String) As String
Dim mySqlCommand As New SqlCommand
Dim mySqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(GetERATSConnectionString())
Dim myPart_id As String
mySqlCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
mySqlCommand.CommandText = "getPartId"
mySqlCommand.Connection = mySqlConnection
mySqlCommand.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@part_supplierserialnumber", part_supplierserialnumber))
Try
mySqlConnection.Open()
myPart_id = mySqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()
Catch ex As Exception
myPart_id = ""
Finally
mySqlConnection.Close()
mySqlConnection.Dispose()
End Try
Return myPart_id
End Function
My Store procedure
create procedure getPartId@part_supplierserialnumber as nvarchar(50)as
select top 1 part_id from tblPtSingapore where part_supplierserialnumber = @part_supplierserialnumber order by part_datecreated desc
GO
The new version I tried which happen the same thing
Public Shared Function getPartId(ByVal part_supplierserialnumber As String) As String
Dim myPart_id As String
Dim strSql As String = "select top 1 part_id from tblPtSingapore where part_supplierserialnumber = '" & part_supplierserialnumber & "' order by part_datecreated desc"
Dim mySqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(GetERATSConnectionString())
Dim mySqlCommand As New SqlCommand(strSql, mySqlConnection)
Try
mySqlConnection.Open()
myPart_id = mySqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()
Catch ex As Exception
myPart_id = ""
Finally
mySqlConnection.Close()
mySqlConnection.Dispose()
End Try
Return myPart_id

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 tables, each with one ID field, a separate
Date and Time fields and a number of other fields.
The tables contain duplicates on the ID field.
I want to do a UNION keeping only the record with the latest
Date and Time.
This would work:
SELECT MyTab.myKeyField, Max(MyTab.myDate) AS myDate
FROM (SELECT myKeyField, myDate
from Table1
union
SELECT myKeyField, myDate
from Table2) AS MyTab
GROUP BY MyTab.myKeyField
But is only taking care of Date, not Time (some records have
the same date but different times)
The other problem is, when I add more fields, I have to
include them in the GROUP BY clause, and this way I end up
with duplicates (because some other fields have different
values)
Is there a way to do this?
I am using MS SQL Server 2000.
I have 4 text fields
1. event begin date
2. event begin time
3. event end date
4. event end time
I have to find the day and time difference in months days hours and minutes between the event begin date & time and the event end date & time The event begin date and event end date are char(8) & event begin time and event end time are char(4) with military time. I would need to combine the event begin date & event begin time to get the event begin date & time and the same for the event end date & time.
If the values of the 4 text fields are

The date is DOB and it's datetime but I just need to extra the getdate() from it.The open time is OPENHOUR and OPENMINThe close time is CLOSEHOUR and CLOSEMIN
so basically the open time for the check will be the DATE FROM DOB + OPENHOUR + OPENMIN

How can I get the total minutes for the check?
I have two nvarchar fields with time data 12:34:34 and the second one 12:34 I want to calculate the difference in Hours. The first field is called (OTIM) the second field is called (ReportedTime) if the name matters. I tried substring to trim the OTIM, I am unable to make it work.

Hi
I need data fields in the page header. The report is multiple pages. I have multiple fields I need in the page header. These fields will change on each page.
I've tried everything I can find suggested on this forum. They all either don't work or work for a while. Then, as is the case today, we get a problem with a report that renders perfectly in the RS browser but when it's output to a PDF, a couple of the page headers become confused.
Why can't Microsoft provide a hack that actually works somewhere (Maybe I just can't find it)? A sticky at the top of the forum?
I'm currently using the answer supplied by NB at AeM here http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showpost.aspx?postid=638813&siteid=1&sb=0&d=1&at=7&ft=11&tf=0&pageid=1 As I said it works very nicely, thanks , except for when it doesn't export properly to a PDF which is an MS issue I presume not the solutions issue.
I really need to be able to make this work before I start throwing my toys from my pram and so my boss doesn't think I'm a complete idiot. I'm sure he doesn't believe me when I say I can't put data in a report header, after all it's only the most basic of reporting functions.
Can anyone please help with a 100% solution?

Hi all,
I have created a report in SSRS 2005 which is being viewed by users from different Time Zones.
I have a dataset which has a field of type datetime (UTC). Now I would like to display this Date according to the User Time Zone.
For example if the date is August 07, 2007 10:00 AM UTC,
then I would like to display it as August 07, 2007 03:30 PM IST if the user Time Zone is IST.
Similarly for other Time Zones it should display the time accordingly.
Is this possible in SSRS 2005?
Any pointers will be usefull...
Thanks in advance

I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

View 1 Replies View RelatedPardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.
In a nutshell, how can I write something like:
UPDATE "TABLENAME"
SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2
WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)
I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.
I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).
Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.
Hi people
My users are having troubles with link to default drillthrough report when reports are exported to excel (they REALLY don't like this behavior ), so I decided set all of them disabled in report model, this work fine, but calculated field in reports has this drillthrough link.
Let me show you the situation. Entity Product has an UnitaryCost field, I set the EnableDrillthrough Property in False so when I export a report with this field, no link is shown.
But if I create in the report a calculated field Round(UnitaryCost) this field has a Drillthrough Link
Is this the standard and expected behavior? or its simply a BUG?
Have I done something wrong in my model? and in this case, How I can correct this?
regards.

It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.
