I am storing data as binary in my sql server 2000 database, and now I wanted to retrieve the data- before I move on I just wanted to check whether the data is restored correctly.
Is there an easy way for that? A tool for sql 2000 or any other simple options?

I have created stored procedures and I am checking whether any error has occured on execution of the statements in that procedure.
If the @@Error <>0 then I need to log this error into my error logging table. For this, I need to retrieve the error description given by SQL SERVER 2000.
I tried this using the master.dbo.sysmessages table. But I get a text from master.dbo.sysmessages which has the placeholders like %l, %s, etc.
I dont want this type of error. I want the exact error description which has the actual objects names and not the placeholders.
I found some help at this link : http://www.sommarskog.se/error-handling-I.html#textretrieve
But i want to know whether there is any other way of doing this or not.

Hi folks,Is it possible to store Binary Files in MS SQL 2000 ??? Say I have a100K PDF or a 150K word document. Is it possible to store this in afield in MS SQL and pull it out somehow? We're using ColdFusion on theserver on Apache.Thanks,Ringo
I have a web application that I am rebuilding. I have many picture files that want to take off the file system and move into SQL as a blob. I will create an index of uids against the file names but need a good way to bulk add the files to the database... any hints on code or tools would be a great help. Thanks
AFAIK I don't think so. Let me know if possible and how.
I'm talking about a SSIS package which owns a Execute DTS 2000 Package Task and from there it calls a DTS 2000. Programatically, from our VB .Net front-end app we're seeing only SSIS events (when validate and execute methods are called) and any kind of information is provided from RCW proxy (I suppose that internally it gonna be created in order to send messages between managed and unmanaged code).
When a task inside our DTS 2000 fails we're awaring by means a "generic message" such this:
Error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040427): Execution was canceled by user. at DTS.PackageClass.Execute() at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.Exec80PackageTask.ExecuteThread()
I have a table with 10 rows with a varbinary column
I wish to concatenate all the binary column into a single binary column and then write that to another table within the database. This application splits a binary file (Word or PDF document) into multiple segments (this is Column2 as below)
I'm using a bit-wise comparison to effectively store multiple values in one column. However once the number of values increases it starts to become too big for a int data type.you also cannot perform a bitwise & on two binary datatypes. Is there a better way to store the binary data rather than int or binary?
Here is my task I am storing pdf's in sql server. I would like to retrieve the binary data from sql server and write the pdf content into an existing aspx page to the appropriate pageview section. What is the best way to handle this. The code works below but it loads a new browser with the content. I need it to appear in it's tabbed section in the original aspx file. Any assistance you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jerry oSQLConn.Open()Dim myreader As SqlDataReader myreader = myCommand.ExecuteReader Response.Expires = 0 Response.Buffer = True Response.Clear() Do While (myreader.Read()) Response.ContentType = ("application/pdf")Response.BinaryWrite(myreader.Item("img_content")) Loop
Hi,I am having some trouble with my ASP page sending a file to a SQL Server 2005 database running on another machine. An exception is generated as follows:A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.) It seems to work ok with smaller files, but when I attempt to upload a 11MB file, it gives me the above exception. I upped the httpRuntime maxRequestLength in the web.config to 2048. Any Ideas? Here is my code:1 if (FileUploader.HasFile) 2 { 3 4 // call the stored proc 5 SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(); 6 conn.ConnectionString = "Password=password;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=MyUser;Initial Catalog=MyDb;Data Source=MySqlServerMachine;Connect Timeout=300"; 7 conn.Open(); 8 9 SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(); 10 cmd.Connection = conn; 11 cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; 12 cmd.CommandText = "spAddTestBinary"; 13 14 SqlParameter param = new SqlParameter(); 15 param.ParameterName = "@binaryParam"; 16 param.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.VarBinary; 17 param.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input; 18 param.Value = FileUploader.FileBytes; 19 cmd.Parameters.Add(param); 20 21 22 cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); 23 24 25 conn.Close(); 26 } Here is my table:1 BinaryTable( 2 [id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, 3 [myBinary] [varbinary](max) NULL, 4 CONSTRAINT [PK_BinaryTable] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 5 ( 6 [id] ASC 7 )WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY] 8 ) ON [PRIMARY] My stored proc:1 ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spAddTestBinary] 2 -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here 3 @binaryParam varbinary(MAX) 4 AS 5 BEGIN 6 -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from 7 -- interfering with SELECT statements. 8 SET NOCOUNT ON; 9 10 -- Insert statements for procedure here 11 Insert into BinaryTable 12 (myBinary) 13 Values 14 ( 15 @binaryParam 16 ) 17 END
hello! I am curious to know how I can find the length of a binary in Sql Server. The length doesn't work on binaries. ie select length(binary) from Binarytable
Can anyone point me in the right direction to find documentation for the problem below?I need to store and retrieve ten fields of 16-bits each for testing 16 true-false conditions (a total of 160 bits in each record) so I think I'd like to use ten 2-byte binary fields (160 "bit" fields would be quite unmanageble, if even possible [I think there is some kind of limit to the number of fields in a single record]). I'm not quickly finding in the SQL Server's online documentation how to test for, use and update binary fields. I'll keep looking, but can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm using VB, if that makes any difference.
There are two datatypes for storing binary data type in the SQL Server:1. binary - for fixed length binary data2. varbinary - for variable length dataMy question is: how is data inserted into them? Do they have anydelimiters that go into the insert statement like strings and datetimeshave? What format (hex/decimal?) do they accept data in? Can you pleasegive me an insert statement example?
hello. i have a _CommandPtr that has the type CommandTypeEnum::adCmdTex, and the CommandText a query("Select * from Table_1") and this select returns one row that has a binary data in it.
Code Block
_CommandPtr pCommand; //Create the C++ ADO Command Object
pCommand.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Command));
pCommand->ActiveConnection = this->pConnection;
//Make the ADO C++ command object to accept stored procedure
Code Block long GetArraySize(const VARIANT& var, long * nElems) {
if ( !(var.vt & VT_ARRAY) ) return -1;
long size = 0; long dims = SafeArrayGetDim(var.parray); long elemSize = SafeArrayGetElemsize(var.parray); long elems = 1; for ( long i=1; i <= dims; i++ ) {
long lbound, ubound; SafeArrayGetLBound(var.parray, i, &lbound); SafeArrayGetUBound(var.parray, i, &ubound); elems *= (ubound - lbound + 1); } if ( nElems ) *nElems = elems; size = elems*elemSize; return size; }
I enter in VARIANT var = pRecordset..... and if gives me a value... but when I put it in Memory explorer in VS, i only see this data " fe ee fe ee fe ee fe ee fe ee fe ee fe ee ...fe ee" and of course it brakes at SafeArrayGetLBound(var.parray, i, &lbound);
Can someone tell me where I am doing a very bad thing?
P.S. I was able to read the binary data from the server using C#.NET 2.0.

Hey all, WE have a document management system where by Adminstrators can upload documents, once the document is uploaded the binary data is stored on in a folder on the web server. We used to stored the documents in the actaul db table, but we found that there were to many documents and it was using alot of space on db server. So my boss has decided we are now going to upload the binary data onto the web server. Currently we are donig this with new documents which have been added or documents which are gettinguploaded when reloading, but there are many documents in the db table which have not been updated and are still embedded in the db table. So i need to figure out how to go about copying the data storewd in the db table and storing it in web servers folder location. I've tried various things for a enitre day but im going round in circiles. MemoryStream mStream = new MemoryStream((Byte[])dtrResults["file"]); BinaryReader bReader = new BinaryReader(mStream); int intFileSize = (int)mStream.Length; Byte[] byteFile = (Byte[])dtrResults["file"]; i can get to this state but then how do i create a folder on the BinaryREader to then store the binary data of the file to the location. BinaryReader bReader2 = new BinaryReader(File.Open(strDocFolder + strSavedFileName, FileMode.Create)); int count2 = bReader2.Read(byteFile, 0, intFileSize); bReader2.Close();i've also tried this but when the file gets created in the folder there is no content. i do know that the file does contain content as ive tried this and downlaoding the file from that page acctually works string strContentTpe = WValue.WStr(dtrResults["contenttype"]); int intFileSize = VValue.VInt(dtrResults["filesize"]); / Byte[] byteFile = ((Byte[])dtrResults["file"]); //Downloads the data correctly Response.ClearContent(); Response.ClearHeaders(); Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="" + WValue.WStr(dtrResults["docfilename"]) + """); Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", WValue.WStr(intFileSize)); Response.ContentType = strContentTpe; Response.BinaryWrite(byteFile); I hope ive made some snese andthat someone can hlep me. Have a nice dayZal
I work for a company that makes heat transfers for the imprinted apparel market. We're developing a database of merchandise images for all of our non-design inventory. Using Access we're going to be inserting thumbnails of psd (photoshop) files. We're wondering if there is any way to import multiple psd's into the sql server database into matching records like matching a column named "filename" and the actual filename of the file without having to upload each file individually. We want to be able to dump the files from the database of the matching records, also. This way, once our catalog designer has found which designs they need to put into the new catalog, it will dump the psd's for us. The same for our staffer who does color separations.
Any suggestions out there? If you need me to post further of what we're trying here, I will. This is for the bossman.
I have been trying to store binary file in a folder from the SQL Server.
Here is the code I am using to do this but, it is not working. It doesn't show any error only shows 1 row(s) affected. The folder remains empty after running this query.
I was assigned a project to read binary data file (2G) and select data from OrderID, OrderDate and Price three columns (there are about 50 columns) into SQL table.
Where to start? Do I need to convert entire binary data file into text file?
I am using FileUpload control in ASP.net 2.0 to upload files and store them into SQL server database as an image. I am fine with MS office files, image files and etc. We have Product Center (Proe) engineering software to configure parts and the files generated through this software have PLT extension when I store these files, the file type is Plian/text. I am using Fileupload.PostedFile.Content to get the file type. How can I store PLT, TIF files in SQL server? Please help.
(Appologies if this group isn't the best place for this post)Is it possible to use DAO 3.6 to access binary data (varbinary(max)) inSql Server 2005? I have images and sound in a Sql 2005 DB that I needto retrieve (and write) with DAO (ADO and ADO.Net are not options asthis is legacy code that can't be changed).Thx,Marcus
Please HELP! On my asp.NET page I'm setting a datetime variable to Now() and inserting that value into SQL Server as a datetime stamp. I want to then retrieve the count of the number of records that were inserted into the table that have that value. The field in the table is just a datetime datatype.But it's returning 0 records because the Now() value is getting converted to military time and losing the seconds! For example, Now() is "9/13/2005 2:48:25 PM" but the value being inserted into the table is "2005-09-13 14:48:00.000".ARRRGGHH! What am I missing?? What do I need to do to be able to (1) keep the seconds, and (2) identify the records in order to retrieve them?Thanks in advance for your help!!!Lynnette
Hi I've followed a tutorial on how to write and read varbinary(max) data to and from a database. But when i try to read the data i get the error that the data would be truncated, but only when the varbinary(max) is greater then 8kB. I've used a system stored procedure (sp_tableoption) to set the table that holds the data to store data outside rows. To select the data i'm using a stored procedure: SELECT imageData , MIMEType FROM Pictures WHERE (imageTitle = @imageTitle) And then using an .aspx page to Response.Write the data:Using conn As New sql.SqlConnection conn.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("myConnectionString").ToString Dim getLogoCommand As New sql.SqlCommand getLogoCommand.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure getLogoCommand.CommandText = "GetPicture" getLogoCommand.Connection = conn Dim imageTitleParameter As New sql.SqlParameter("@imageTitle", Data.SqlDbType.NVarChar, 200) imageTitleParameter.Value = Request("imageTitle") imageTitleParameter.Direction = Data.ParameterDirection.Input getLogoCommand.Parameters.Add(imageTitleParameter) conn.Open() Using logoReader As sql.SqlDataReader = getLogoCommand.ExecuteReader logoReader.Read() If logoReader.HasRows = True Then Response.Clear() Response.ContentType = logoReader("MIMEtype").ToString() Response.BinaryWrite(logoReader("imageData")) End If End Using conn.Close() End Using Can anyone please help me with this?!
I have a login name being displayed when a user logs in, like so: "Welcome: johndoe23"This is displayed through the use of the <asp:LoginName> tag.I want to do a query on the database that only selects data relevant to that userName and wish to assign that logged in username to a variable so we can use an SQL command similar to: "SELECT something WHERE userID=" + loggedInUserName;
hy all..How can I achieve the above ?Moreover can I retrieve data from multiple databases which are lying on different DBMSs ( like retrieving from database A which is on SQL and from database B which is on Oracle ) ?Rgds.
We have a domain where all computers are on GMT(Greenwitch Mean Time). We have an access front end that timestamps certain fields according to the client time that the program is running on, but we will be moving our client workstations off of GMT time and keep our SQL Server on GMT time, and want to keep the timestamps GMT.
So, I wanted to know if it was possible to create a stored procedure that gets the Server's time and returns it to the Access frontend for entry into the timestamp fields?
Or, if anyone has a better idea of how to get the time from the server to use on the clients, I would greatly appreciate it!!!
I use the following SQL to set up a linked server with Excel and attempt to retrieve data. The c: empauthors.xls is downloaded from the second page of the article above.
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'EXCEL', 'Excel', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c: empauthors.xls', NULL, 'Excel 8.0', NULL GO SELECT * FROM EXCEL...Sheet1$ GO
The query sets up the linked server OK, and retrieves the field names, but no data is returned. The results in Management Studio are a list of column names:
au_id au_lname au_fname phone address city state zip contract
then an error:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "EXCEL" returned message "Unknown". Msg 7321, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 An error occurred while preparing the query "SELECT `Tbl1002`.`au_id` AS `Col1004`,`Tbl1002`.`au_lname` AS `Col1005`,`Tbl1002`.`au_fname` AS `Col1006`,`Tbl1002`.`phone` AS `Col1007`,`Tbl1002`.`address` AS `Col1008`,`Tbl1002`.`city` AS `Col1009`,`Tbl1002`.`state` AS `Col1010`,`Tbl1002`.`zip` AS `Col1011`,`Tbl1002`.`contract` AS `Col1012` FROM `Sheet1$` `Tbl1002`" for execution against OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "EXCEL".
Does anyone know how to resolve this? I'm using Windows Authentication to connect to a SQL server (9.0.3054) instance on localhost, and am running from a test database query window.
