Does anyone know what it means when i see some
records returned that have their COLUMN value
as NULL?
I investigated a little to see if they are somehow
related to orphaned users but I don't believe they
are. What else would cause this column to be NULL?
And it seems they are all MSP related. Maybe this is
a Project Server bug?
Why does sp_helprotect throw an error if there are no special security permissions for a specified @username? Why not simply return a blank resultset? This makes the procedure a hassle to use when trying to capture results into a table as part of another stored procedure (use it for auditing).
[Edited]The same problem occurs when I execute xp_logininfo to get the list of members for a group that has no members. Instead of just passing back some sort of status, the procedure blows up and keeps me from scripting the procedure.
I am getting this error: "Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OrderID', table 'outman.outman.Contact'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails." -- But my value is not null. I did a response.write on it and it show the value. Of course, it would be nice if I could do a breakpoint but that doesn't seem to be working. I'll attach a couple of images below of my code, the error, and the breakpoint error.

We have a database where many tables have a field that has to be lengthened. In some cases this is a primary key or part of a primary key. The table in question is:-
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] Script Date: 09/25/2014 14:05:09 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd](
[Code] ....
The script I am using is
DECLARE@Column varchar(100)--The name of the column to change DECLARE@size varchar(5)--The new size of the column DECLARE @TSQL varchar(255)--Contains the code to be executed DECLARE @Object varchar(50)--Holds the name of the table DECLARE @dropc varchar(255)-- Drop constraint script
[Code] ....
When I the the script I get the error message Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
Looking at the strings I build
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] DROP CONSTRAINT PK_DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] Alter Column [Patient System Number] varchar(10) ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] ADD CONSTRAINT PK_DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED ([Patient System Number] ASC,[Episode Number] ASC,[CensusDate] ASC) WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
They all seem fine except the last one which returns the error
Msg 8111, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot define PRIMARY KEY constraint on nullable column in table 'DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd'. Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 1 Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
None of the fields I try to create the key on are nullable.
I receive this message when I try to run any report. The reportserver and reportservertempdb databases were upgraded using backup/restore from SQL2000 to SQL2005 on a separate server which is running RS2005 . Please help. Thanks
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
Hi.I've read up on this, and have something that works, but I was wondering ifthere is anything I'm overlooking with this.Situation is:I have a bunch of tables.. I need to modify table2 as part of an upgrade of adatabase schema.I am using T-SQL scripts to do the trick which I'm writing myself.I need to add a new varchar(8) column that is not null to the primary key.I have a default I would like to use for the initial ddl modification.I want to get rid of the default after the modification is complete, but leavethe column not null for future operations...(Some if the code I'm using I took from one of Erlands posts.. hope I'm notabusing it).Here is the code I'm using now.. it basically adds the column 'institution_id'as not null along with a default.Then I jump through a couple of hoops trying to get rid of the default.Finally I setup the primary key again.I can only feel I'm supposed to be maybe using a constraint column with a nameto do this easier/more properly.set @dynamicsql = ' alter table institution_xref add institution_idvarchar(60) not null default ''' + @default_institution_id + ''' 'EXEC (@dynamicsql)set @dynamicsql = ' alter table institution_xref alter columninstitution_id varchar(60) not null 'EXEC (@dynamicsql)select @institution_iddefault = object_name(cdefault) from syscolumnswhere id = object_id('institution_xref') and name = 'institution_id'exec(' alter table institution_xref drop constraint ' +@institution_iddefault)set @dynamicsql = ' alter table institution_xref drop constraintinstitution_xref_pk 'EXEC (@dynamicsql)set @dynamicsql = ' alter table institution_xref with nocheck addconstraint institution_xref_pk primary key clustered (originalcode,institution_id) 'EXEC (@dynamicsql)thanksJeffJeff Kish
It is issues like this that drive a programmer insane! I am trying to figure out if I am missing something here.
I have a query like this:
SELECT CL.DivisionId FROM CompanyLabels CL, BusinessRules B WHERE CL.CompanyLabelId = B.CompanyLabelId
In my table, DivisionId is nullable and equal to NULL.
In my VS.2005 Mobile 5 application, this line is giving me fits:
if (dr["DivisionId"] != null) { MessageBox.Show(dr["DivisionId"].ToString().Length.ToString()); divisionId = Convert.ToInt32(dr["DivisionId"].ToString()); }
DivisionId passes the null check and is blank. The message box returns "0" and of course, I get a FormatError on the conversion.
I have also tried DBNull in place of null. Is there a special System.Data.SqlServerCe NULL value in the SQL CE framework that I should be using? Am I completely forgetting something here?
Hey. I need to substitute a value from a table if the input var is null. This is fine if the value coming from table is not null. But, it the table value is also null, it doesn't work. The problem I'm getting is in the isnull line which is in Dark green color because @inFileVersion is set to null explicitly and when the isnull function evaluates, value returned from DR.FileVersion is also null which is correct. I want the null=null to return true which is why i set ansi_nulls off. But it doesn't return anything. And the select statement should return something but in my case it returns null. If I comment the isnull statements in the where clause, everything works fine. Please tell me what am I doing wrong. Is it possible to do this without setting the ansi_nulls to off??? Thank you
set ansi_nulls off
go
declare
@inFileName VARCHAR (100),
@inFileSize INT,
@Id int,
@inlanguageid INT,
@inFileVersion VARCHAR (100),
@ExeState int
set @inFileName = 'A0006337.EXE'
set @inFileSize = 28796
set @Id= 1
set @inlanguageid =null
set @inFileVersion =NULL
set @ExeState =0
select Dr.StateID from table1 dR
where
DR.[FileName] = @inFileName
AND DR.FileSize =@inFileSize
AND DR.FileVersion = isnull(@inFileVersion,DR.FileVersion)
Hi i get the above error whenever i try and run my page, what i am trying to do is embed a repeater within a datalist, here is my code;public void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {string strID = Request.QueryString["id"]; SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["streamConnectionString"].ConnectionString);SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("stream_Users", conn); command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;command.Parameters.Add("@userID", SqlDbType.Int).Value = Request.QueryString["id"]; SqlDataAdapter cmd1 = new SqlDataAdapter(command); //Create and fill the DataSet.DataSet ds = new DataSet(); cmd1.Fill(ds, "userName"); //Create a second DataAdapter for the Titles table.SqlDataAdapter cmd2 = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from UserSpecialties", conn); cmd2.Fill(ds, "specialty"); //Create the relation bewtween the Authors and Titles tables.ds.Relations.Add("myrelation", ds.Tables["userName"].Columns["userID"],ds.Tables["specialtyName"].Columns["userID"]); //Bind the Authors table to the parent Repeater control, and call DataBind.DataList1.DataSource = ds.Tables["userName"]; Page.DataBind(); //Close the connection. conn.Close(); }
I have a table with the list of employee and 15 column with data type float or money , that represent the number of hours, airfare,gas,parking food, etc....
I have 2 choice: -Put 0 as a default value for each column, like that I do not have to use coalesce when I do SUM for each column. -Leave the default value null but I will have to use coalesce.
In term of performance, what is the best solution?
Hello FriendsSuppose I'm designing one database table- ABC master and it has fields like field1, field2........field5. From these fields, Field1 is PK and 2 & 3 and mandatory. So while creating this table, is it necessary to specify the field 2 & 3 as NotNull in Null column.If I specify them as Null then does it effect aby thing. As i know that before saving the data to the database the programming logic checks whether the mandatory data entered or not?Reply back..Thanks
Hi, I have a table in which out of 20 columns, there will be data only in a few columns. So, I need to find those column names which have data in them. I was able to do it using the information_schema and using a cursor to loop through all the column names and find out which columns have data in them. But i need to know if there is a more efficient way of doing this without using the cursor. Can somebody please let me know how this can be done without using a cursor? Thank you.
I am trying to concatenate three columns and when one column might be NULL, the result set is NULL. I have set "concat null yields null" to false and the result is the same. Here is my code:
I have to populate a table of exchange rates which is easy enough however because rates are held on Fridays but I need to make calculations on weekends or holidays I need to populate the Friday rate on non weekends and holidays. I have a sample table below with null values on the weekends for the last 90 days but need a script that will show the Friday exchange rate on Saturday and Sunday
Here was my latest attempt
;with cte as ( select currxdate, [from], [TO], CurrXRate from dbo.CurrXchange ) select a.CurrXDate, a.[From],a.[To] , isnull(a.CurrXRate, b.currxrate) as 'CurrXRate'
How do you alter a table to set a column which is currently int, to int not null?
I have already set all values to either 0 or 1.
Why can't I use:
Alter table myTable alter myCol int not null default(0)
I get a syntax error on the word default. If I remove "default(0)" then the command executes ok, but my Inserts don't work because there's no default value.
Hi All, I've one table named tableAB. in that i've added one new column with not null option in the enterprise manager. then i've generated the script, and run the script in client database. because already data is there, it is not accepting to put null value in the new column. so the is missing. anyway backup is there with me.
how do you change the allow null on a column to be 0, so instead of having null when empty, it would be 0, I tried default value or binding to 0 to -1, and to 1 and in 0 or -1, it stays null, in 1 it puts the 1 for example if is quantity, it puts as if I would have 1 quantity, so it's either null, or whathever number I put visides -1 or 0 how can I make it be 0 as defult? I'm using it to add and substract with computed column, formula; and the problem is that if it's the first time it's used it does not add or substract, becsause it does not add null with a number, if it has 0 than it works, whata I had to do is add it manually, but of course it doesn't suppoesed to be that way any suggestions will be appriciated:
Hi,How to find first not null value in column whitout chacking whole table(if there is a not null value then show me it and stop searching, thetable is quite big)?thx,Martin*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***
I have a flat file source. I tried to use a conditional split, which if found any null values in a column of data type string then send it to error output, other wise send the rows to the db table. I used !ISNULL( <<Field Name>>) , but every time it's send all the column to the DB table, even the value in the column is null. Can some one give me some idea about what should I do?
What I want to do, is save a NULL value in the Customers.LevelId when no level is selected. I'm using C#, a CLR StoredProcedure and the DbType.Int32 for that column. When I try to save a null value, it says "cannot convert null to int", what is clear. But in the database it is possible to save a NULL value.
The question is: How to save a null value in a int column via a C# CLR Stored Procedure?
"Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'ID_Month', table 'Database_DW.dbo.Incident_Summary'; column does not allow nulls..."
At my table, I have a primary key which make autonumber for any record set in column 'ID_Month'. How can I insert autonumber in column 'ID_Month'by SQL statement?
