I have to send an email using a variable as message body... the variable gets its value from database varchar(8000). Due to limited size of string variable in SSIS the value gets truncated.
Any workaround?
Thanks
In SSIS, what is the maximum size of the String variable (one that you would define in the Variables dialog box)?
I have a SSIS package that opens an xml file, puts the contents into a string, then runs a stored procedure that dumps it into an xml column in a table. One of the xml files is huge. Putting the data into a ssis string causes an error. The length of the string variable is 58,231,886. The file will only get bigger.
How else can I get this data into a SQL Server XML field.
Hi folks,Can anyone enlighten me here? I'm trying to use a SPROC which, when supplied with an int, looks up the table and returns certain columns from it. I'm using a SqlCommand, here's my codebehind: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SqlCommand dataSource = new SqlCommand("retrieveData", new SqlConnection(dbConnString)); dataSource .CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("id", poid); dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("title", title).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("creator", creator).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("assignee", assignee).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; etc, etc... And the SPROC:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------set ANSI_NULLS ONset QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[retrieveData] @id int, @title varchar(50) OUTPUT, @creator varchar(50) OUTPUT, @assignee varchar(50) OUTPUT, @contact varchar(50) OUTPUT, @deliveryCost numeric(18,2) OUTPUT, @totalCost numeric(18,2) OUTPUT, @status tinyint OUTPUT, @project smallint OUTPUT, @supplier smallint OUTPUT, @creationDateTime datetime OUTPUT, @amendedDateTime datetime OUTPUT, @locked bit OUTPUT AS /**SET NOCOUNT ON; **/ SELECT [title] AS [@title], [datetime] AS [@creationDateTime], [creator] AS [@creator], [assignee] as [@assignee], [supplier] as [@supplier], [contact] AS [@contact], [delivery_cost] AS [@deliveryCost], [total_cost] AS [@totalCost], [amended_timestamp] AS [@amendedDateTime], [locked] AS [@locked] FROM purchase_orders WHERE [id] = @id; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The id being passed in is definately not null, and is set to a value of an item I know exists. The resulting error is:

Hello,
I have a issue with the drill down. In the report there is drill down in the Amount column. I am trying to pass the customer names in this drill down but there are more than 100 customers for that specific case and drill down is not able to pass all the customers.
Is there any other way to pass the large string in the drill down?
This is a tough error....
The situation: we are trying to manage Stored Procedures (ALTER, CREATE, DROP statements) on one of our SQL2005 servers and this error spews out:
"Target string size is too small to represent the XML instance"
Now this script i wrote (simple alter statement adding a column) works on 4 other versions of SQL 2005, but when i try a certain server, i get that error
Searching Google, Yahoo, and MSN, all three point to one single instance of this error, right here on Don Keily's blog
http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/donkiely/archive/2005/10/20.aspx
and unfortunately... no solution :(
Maybe in the 3 months since that post, someone might have run across that and knows how to fix?
Hi there,
Following is the code I have, which I select and execute as one batch.
declare @intData integer
Declare @strSQL varchar(8000)
Set @strSql = ''
set @strSql = 'select @intData = Age from MasterRecords'
exec (@strSql)
I get the following error in SQL 2000's query analyzer.
Must declare the variable '@intdata'.
Any and all help is highly appreciated.

Hi
I have a problem with a string variable which looks something like this
@VARIABLE = 'RTY,YTUK,GHJ'
I need to be able to select (RTY) the first individual values seperated by the commas to be used as a variable elsewhere in my SQL script.
Following this I need to use the second value (YTUK) to be run in the same piece of code. Followed by the 3rd value (GHJ)
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks
hi there,
i am trying to pass a string which contains a string,
here is the code which is wrong :
{string sqlcommand = "select pnia.pnia_number, pnia.user_name, pnia.date_pnia, pnia.user_pnia, problem.problem, gormim.gorem_name, status.status_name from pnia,gormim,problem,status where (pnia.status='@p1' and status.status='@p1' and pnia.problem=problem.problem_num and pnia.gorem=gormim.gorem)";
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(sqlcommand,con);OleDbParameter p1 = new OleDbParameter("@p1",this.DropDownList4.SelectedItem.Value.ToString());
cmd.Parameters.Add(p1);
}
the problem is that the sql compailer doesnt take the parameter (@p1) as a string
if someone could help me with that it would be great ! tnx
Using SQL Server 7.0, I am trying to use a variable string called from a form to perform a simple query.
Here's what it looks like:
[after submitting a form on the previous page with a drop down list box titled "fiscal"]
dim strYear
strYear = Request.Form("fiscal")
sql = "SELECT * FROM VENDOR WHERE STATUS = 'P' AND '"& strYear &"';"
[where strYear is the following: PYMNT_DT > ''12/31/98'']
Records exist that meet this criteria. If the PYMNT_DT > '12/31/98' is hardcoded into the sql statement, 12 records are returned. However, when the variable string is used instead, no records are found. Any ideas on how this problem might be fixed?
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,

I want to run the following code:
Declare@Testnames as Varchar(500)
Set@Testnames = ('CT,MRI')-- List all radiology type
SELECT*
FROMRPT_OUTPATIENT_IMAGING
WHEREservice_level2 In (@Testnames)
Nothing comes back.
When I run:
SELECT*
FROMRPT_OUTPATIENT_IMAGING
WHEREservice_level2 In ('CT','MRI')
Then I get results.
Is there a way around the character limit for a variable? I'm throwing the following in a variable and evaulating it as an expression and having an execute sql task do it, but I can clearly see it's being cut off.
"insert work.dbo.data_run select publisher,publisher_db,subscriber,subscriber_db,article,null,getdate(),null
from msdb.dbo.sysreplicationalerts
where error_id<>0
and alert_error_code=20574
and [time] between '" +(DT_STR,50,1252)@[System::ContainerStartTime] +"' and '"+(DT_STR,50,1252)GETDATE()+"'"
Thanks,

Hi to all,
I am using a connection string like
data source=RemoteHostName;initial catalog=myDb;password=sa;user id=sa;
Max pool size = 200;
And now strange thing is happening ,, I am receiving error :
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection
from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in
use and max pool size was reached
The SqlServer Activity Manager is telling that only 100 connections are pooled, and I guess that the Max pool size is 100, It is not being changed by my Connection string. As I am trying to change the default 100 pool size value to 200.
Huh , So stucked up , how to increase the Max pool size.. Is there any way .
I am getting worrried.
Any help ??
Thx and Regards

I'm trying to add a 'change password' control to my site and seem to be having some issues. I have code that works if I statically define what user is displayed on the form, but I cant get it to detect the 'authenticated' user and show them the reset for for that ID.If I take the "+ myid" out of the select statement and just define the username statically the form works properly. Error:System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The column prefix
'System.Security.Principal' does not match with a table name or alias name used
in the query. Here's a piece of the code that is supposed to detect the current logged in user. However, it gives the error. (some of the code may be redundant but its not causing issues that I can tell) public void InitPage() { IPrincipal p = HttpContext.Current.User; String myid = HttpContext.Current.User.ToString(); SqlServer sqlServer = new SqlServer(Util.SqlConnectionString()); DataTable dt; SqlConnection cnn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myconnection"].ConnectionString); SqlDataAdapter cmd1 = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from USER WHERE USER_NAME = "+ myid, cnn); DataTable UIDtable = new DataTable(); cmd1.Fill(UIDtable); User_Id.Value = UIDtable.Rows[0]["ID"].ToString(); dt = sqlServer.USER_SELECT(Util.SiteURL(Request.QueryString["Pg"].ToString()), User_Id.Value);
I want to declare a variable that will serve as my where clause. The variable will be passed in from our website. Does anyone have any information or can guide me in the right direction to do this?
example:
@variable varchar(1000)
SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE @variable
(The @variable would reflect the where clause string)
Thanks!
I'm trying to write a stored procedure in SQL that will make a copy of a file and then append the current date to the end of the copy's filename. I'm storing the date in a variable called @currentdate which is defined as:
declare
@currentdate varchar(10)
set @currentdate='' + 'select datepart(month,getdate())' + '-' + 'select datepart(day,getdate())' + '-' + 'select datepart(year,getdate())'
Here is the SQL code I'm using:
exec xp_cmdshell 'copy "C:DevelopmentParticipant Limits ReportParticipant Limits Report template.xls" "C:DevelopmentParticipant Limits ReportParticipant Limits Report ' + @currentdate + '.xls"'
GO
The resulting file should have a filename something like "Participant Limits Report 3-31-2008". I get an "Incorrect syntax near '+'." error.
Hi,I am having problems setting the value of a variable in a SQL Stringthat I have to create dynamically in my procedure. The code that Icurrently have is as follows:set @sqlStatement='Set @compare_string=' + '(Select ' +@group_column_list_mod + ' from ' + @Tbl_Name + '_Sorted' + ' whereIdentity_Column=' + ltrim(rtrim(str(@loop_counter))) + ')'exec(@sqlStatement)The error message that I get is as follows:Must declare the variable '@compare_string'.Here @compare_string has already been declared in the procedure and Idon't have a problem using the variable anywhere else but this SQLStatement (when called using the EXEC function).I am not sure why SQL Server can't see the variable declared when usedin a string in conjunction with EXEC. Is this a syntax issue? Any helpon this issue would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance.

I have a stored proc that builds a character string from a number of rows returned from a select query. Is there anyway to insert a carriage return after I append the value of each row to the string variable?
Thanks in advance,

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help out. I need to create a stored procedure, but before i do so, I need to know if I can store a conditional expression in a string and just use that variable as my condition for the WHERE clause. The reason I ask this is because I am trying to create a stored procedure that queries different things depending on what the inputs are.

I have created a function with:
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_concat_boxes](@item varchar, @week int)
RETURNS VARCHAR(100)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Output varchar(100)
SELECT @Output = COALESCE(@Output + '/', '') +
CAST(quantity AS varchar(5))
FROM flexing_stock_transactions
WHERE item = @item AND week = @week
GROUP BY quantity
ORDER BY quantity
RETURN @Output
END
how can I pass the variable @item correctly for the string comparison
WHERE item = @item AND week = @week
to work correctly please?
WHERE item = '@item' AND week = @week
won't work and
WHERE item = @item AND week = @week
won't work.
HiI'm grateful for any light you can shed on this!!I've to admit, it's an unusual design but I've multiple contact tables namede.g. i2b_ash_contact or i2b_ted_contact.'i2b_' and '_contact' are static but the middle part is dynamic.Storing all contacts in one table with an identifier of e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'for each record is not possible.Returning the value from the dynamic Query is no problem but I don't knowhow to assign it to a variable.When I try doing this it either runs into problems with evaluating thevariables or doesn't retuen anything at all e.g. if I say at the end 'Print@AddressID'. The variable remains empty.How can I do something like:DECLARE@AddressID int,@ProgClient (varchar(10),@Table varchar(10)Note: @Prog is a string e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'SET @Table = 'i2b_ + @ProgClient + '_contactSET @AddressID = (SELECT AddressID FROM @Table WHERE ContactID = @ContactID)
