Using Field Caption For Queries
Nov 27, 2007I would like to know is it possible to define field caption, different from field Column name, for display in the query results?
I'm using Sql 2005

Caption: 'ms_sqlce_se_notification' On Reopen Application Window
Jan 30, 2007Hello,
another problem i couldn't figure out myself:
I have limited my application to one instance. So i call SetForegroundWindow() upon other in InitInstance() of the application when there is already an instance of the same application running.
This works fine most of the time. But sometimes it only shows the title bar(incl. OK-button) of the application with the caption 'ms_sqlce_se_notification'.
Then i have to manually activate it within the list of running programs.
Could it be a notification i don't handle? Or what could be the reason for such a behaviour?
I've already searched the web for it and found almost no resource for this issue. So it would be lovely if someone already solved this problem and could tell me the solution.
Kind regards,
Andre
Populate Parameter List With Caption From One Attribute And Value From Another Using MDX
Dec 7, 2007
I have a units conversion table. I'd like to populate the parameter drop down with the name of the unit and have the value selected be the numrical value found in a different attribute.
Here is my current MDX:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS '[Dim Units].[Units].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS '[Dim Units].[Units].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS '[Dim Units].[Units].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL'
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , [Dim Units].[Units].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@DimSalesTypeDescription, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Heidtman DW])
Units Parameter Caption Parameter Value Parameter Level
(null) All [Dim Units].[Units].[All] 0
Gross Ton Gross Ton [Dim Units].[Units].&[Gross Ton] 1
Hundred Weight Hundred Weight [Dim Units].[Units].&[Hundred Weight] 1
I can't seem to get different attribute to show up for ParameterValue.
Also, is there a way to NOT include the "all" member? For what I am trying to do it would have no meaning.
Thanks.

Parameterized Queries Running Slower Than Non-parameterized Queries
Jul 20, 2005HelloWhen I use a PreparedStatement (in jdbc) with the following query:SELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = ?ORDER BY group_nameIt takes a significantly longer time to run (the time it takes forexecuteQuery() to return ) than if I useSELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = 'M'ORDER BY group_nameAfter tracing the problem down, it appears that this is not preciselya java issue, but rather has to do with the underlying cost of runningparameterized queries.When I open up MS Enterprise Manager and type the same query in - italso takes far longer for the parameterized query to run when I usethe version of the query with bind (?) parameters.This only happens when the table in question is large - I am seeingthis behaviour for a table with > 1,000,000 records. It doesn't makesense to me why a parameterized query would run SLOWER than acompletely ad-hoc query when it is supposed to be more efficient.Furthermore, if one were to say that the reason for this behaviour isthat the query is first getting compliled and then the parameters aregetting sent over - thus resulting in a longer percieved executiontime - I would respond that if this were the case then A) it shouldn'tbe any different if it were run against a large or small table B) thisperformance hit should only be experienced the first time that thequery is run C) the performance hit should only be 2x the time for thenon-parameterized query takes to run - the difference in response timeis more like 4-10 times the time it takes for the non parameterizedversion to run!!!Is this a sql-server specific problem or something that would pertainto other databases as well? I there something about the coorect use ofbind parameters that I overall don't understand?If I can provide some hints in Java then this would be great..otherwise, do I need to turn/off certain settings on the databaseitself?If nothing else works, I will have to either find or write a wrapperaround the Statement object that acts like a prepared statement but inreality sends regular Statement objects to the JDBC driver. I wouldthen put some inteligence in the database layer for deciding whetherto use this special -hack- object or a regular prepared statementdepending on the expected overhead. (Obviously this logic would onlybe written in once place.. etc.. IoC.. ) HOWEVER, I would desperatelywant to avoid doing this.Please help :)

How To Convert Datetime Field To A Date Field So Excel Recognize It As Data Type
May 17, 2015I embedded a SQL query in excel that gets some datetime fields like "TASK_FINISH_DATE" .
How can I convert a datetime field to a date field in SQL in a way that excel will recognize it as a date type and not a text type?
I tried:
CONVERT(varchar(8),TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CONVERT(Date,TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CAST(TASK_FINISH_DATE as date)
**all of the above returned text objectes in excel and not date objects.
Informix Date Type Field To SQL Server Datetime Field Error
Oct 17, 2007
I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package
using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP
errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them
as datetime but it failed.
What options do I have that will work?

View 1 Replies View RelatedTransact SQL :: NVARCHAR Field Getting Truncated After Increasing Field Length?
Aug 28, 2015I have a very strange situation. I've increased the size of an NVARCHAR field from 8 to 9 in a database table. The format of the data that I enter will either be an 8 character field (123456-8) or a 9 character field (1234567-9). The '-' is critical.
It used to only accept the 8 character version, but after increasing the field size, if I try to insert the 9 character field version, it gets truncated after the '-', as though it's still only allowing 8 characters. But that only occurs when I include the '-' or other such characters like '#'. If I try to insert 1234567a9, it works. The following explains the outcomes:
Inserted Value -> Result in table
123456-8 -> 123456-8 *Correct
1234567-9 -> 1234567- *Wrong
123456789 -> 123456789 *Correct
1234567#9 -> 1234567# *Wrong
1234567a9 -> 1234567a9 *Correct
Why is it that characters such as '-' and '#' are truncating the value, but only if the string is 9 chars long?
I'm currently using a direct t-sql insert statement in SQLExpress. The field is a simple NVARCHAR(9) field.

View 12 Replies View RelatedAccess Memo Field To SQL Server Text Field
Nov 19, 2006Hi,
I'm importing an Access database to SQL Server 2000.
The issue I ran into is pretty frustrating... All Memo fields that get copied over (as Text fields) appear to be fine and visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager... except when I display them on the web via ASP - everything is blank (no content at all).
I didn't have that problem with Access, so I ruled out the possibility that there's something wrong with the original data.
Is this some sort of an encoding problem that arose during database import?
I would appreciate any pointers.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMS Access Memo Field To SQL Server Text Field
Aug 20, 2006Hi all,
i've a reasonable amount of experience with MS Access and less
experience with SQL Server. I've just written an .NET application that
uses an SQL Server database. I need to collate lots of data from around
the company in the simplest way, that can then be loaded into the SQL
Server database.
I decided to collect the info in Excel because that's what most people
know best and is the quickest to use. The idea being i could just copy
and paste the records directly into the SQL Server database table (in
the same format) using the SQL Server Management Studio, for
example.
Trouble is, i have a problem with line feed characters. If an Excel
cell contains a chunk of text with line breaks (Chr(10) or Chr(13))
then the copy'n'paste doesn't work - only the text up to the first line
break is pasted into the SQL Server database cell. The rest is not
pasted for some reason.
I've tried with MS Access too, copying and pasting the contents of a
memo field into SQL Server database, but with exactly the same problem.
I've tried with 'text' or 'varchar' SQL Server database field formats.
Since i've no experience of using different types of databases
interacting together, can someone suggest the simplest way of
transferring the data without getting this problem with the line feeds?
I don't want to spend hours writing scripts/programs when it's just
this linefeed problem that is preventing the whole lot just being
cut'n'pasted in 5 seconds!
