Hi folks,I'm doing calculations based on data in a table, but the data has somezeros in the field I'm dividing by. I'm trying to write a script toreplace any field with 0 or null with 1, but it's not working. HEre'swhat I've got:Update A Set A.deptcode = A.deptcode,A.type = A.Type,A.Volume = (case A.VolumeWhen Null Then 1When 0 then 1Else A.VolumeEnd)From Data_Unsorted A Join Data_Unsorted B OnA.deptcode = B.deptcode and A.type = B.TypeMy table is data_unsorted and deptcode and type are my primary keysVolume is the item I want to put 1 if null or zero, and I'd thing theabove statement would work, but it doesn't. This table has 383 rows,and it says it updates 383 rows, but when I run the following query totest:select a.deptcode, a.type, a.volumefrom data_unsorted awhere a.AveMonthVolume = 0 or a.AveMonthVOlume is nullIt didn't work... still TONS of nulls and zero's. Is there a trick tothis???Thanks,Alex.
I had a view in which I did something like this isnull(fld,val) as 'alias'
when I assign a value to this in the client (vb 6.0) it works ok in sql2000 but fails in 2005. When I change the query to fld as 'alias' then it works ok in sql 2005 . why ?? I still have sql 2000 (8.0) compatability.
Also some queries which are pretty badly written run on sql 2000 but dont run at all in sql 2005 ???
any clues or answers ?? it is some configuration issue ?
I am writing a pgm that attaches to a SQL Server database. I have an Add stored procedure and an Update stored procedure. The two are almost identical, except for a couple parameters. However, the Add function works and the Update does not. Can anyone see why? I can't seem to find what the problem is...
This was my test:
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Update", cn) 'Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Add", cn)
Catch ex As Exception Label1.Text = ex.Message End Try
When I use the Add procedure, a record is added correctly and I receive the "done" message. When I use the Update procedure, the record is not updated, but I still receive the "done" message.
I have looked at the stored procedures and the syntax is correct according to SQL Server.

I have a colunm in a table that has a list of email address. I want to remove a certain email address from that colunm, but it is in 54 different rows. What is the best way to do this ?
I have wriiten a query that works great in sql server but MS Access does not support EXCEPT. I have to rewrite this query using 'IN' or 'NOT IN' but can not figure it out because it must be compared on all fields. I'm sure this will require multiple subqueries because 'IN' must return only one field but I can not rap my brain around it. Could someone please help with this? Here is the 'EXCEPT' query I know works.

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.
Hi all, I made a migration operation and when I am looking inside database I can see the <BR> tags. The question is how to write a query that replace all of this occurances of <BR> inside the colum table, with CLRF which is a new line code. Thanks in advance.

Is there an escape character that I can use to say only one: ' ?Would the only solution be to put: ryan''s field into the Database, and just format it properly on the output? Thanks.
Hi, I am having a situation where I need to update a column in my SQL table that contains a link to an image file. Basically ... I have this stored in a column IMAGESRC Project/aa11be5d-dd9e-48c8-9d8c-6a972e996b28/ProjectImages/702d_2.jpg I need to change it to this Project/NEWUSERID/ProjectImages/702d_2.jpg How can I accomplish this in SQL???
I have a table with a field called productname, and it has about 5000 rows, and within that about 1000 have a productname that has 'NIB' in the name, ie "My Product NIB DVD" and I have been asked to replace 'NIB' with 'New' ie "My Product New DVD" Can I do this in SQL using an Update statement? Or do I have build something in maybe asp.net to use a replace function to change the name.
I'm not sure how to use REPLACE here. The Query following REPLACE returns a string whose format is A B C D and I'm trying to convert it to 'A','B','C','D' I'm doing something wrong because query analyzer doesn't like something about the way I've written this.

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.
I am using MSDE. In this I have a field that contains a desciption. Prior to saving to the db, I replace all vbcrlf's to <br />'s. That works fine when displaying in HTML, but when I display it in a datagrid, I want to replace the <br />'s with vbcrlf's.
I thought I might be able to do it with a replace function in my SQL query, something like "Select ID, replace(Description, '<br />', vbcrlf) as Description". This produces an error that vbcrlf is not a fieldname. So I tried "select replace(Description, '<br />', 'xxx') as Description", and while this did not create an error, neither was the text replaced.
Am I not using the replace function correctly? Is there another way in which I might accomplish the task?
Dim ConnectionString As String = "server='(local)'; trusted_connection=true; database=dbname" Dim CommandText As String
'Command text is greatly abreviated for this discussion. CommandText = "Select ID, replace(Description, '<br />', vbcrlf) as Description"
Dim myConnection As New SqlConnection(ConnectionString) Dim myCommand As New SqlDataAdapter(CommandText, myConnection)
Dim ds As New DataSet() Dim dv as new dataview() myCommand.Fill(ds)
Can anyone tell me how to replace a single apostrophe in a record with a double apostrophe (in Query Analyzer, SQL7)? I've tried "select replace("d'","d'","d''")FROM RESORT" but it doesn't UPDATE the table.
I have a need to evaluate a parameter to use like keywords. (Not my server, so indexing is not available.) I can get the first scenario to work, but wanted to see about getting the syntax so I wouldn't have to exec the statement. If I run the first execute statement, I get three rows (accurate). If I run the second statement, I get no rows. Anybody help me out with the syntax? I've tried so many variations, I'm lost. Many thanks.
