Varchar Output Greater Than 8000 Chars

May 20, 2007

hi all, I'm after a way to produce a single-lined output of a char/varchar string replicated over 8000 times.

basically I've been given a task to create a stored procedure which can accept any integer to replicate a string X times.

From what I've read the replicate() fn will covert to varchar of max 8000 bytes.

I've thought about creating a UDF to accept the varchar and int and run a loop to keep outputting but 'print' will pass an endline to the buffer which is no good for my loop.

Any help would be great on this. Thanks.

Input Parameter Greater Than Varchar(8000)

May 30, 2006

Hi

I need to pass the where clause of my statement as an input parameter for a stored procedure. As this is built dynamically within the program (Borland C++), it could sometimes exceed the maximum 8000 bytes of a varchar. I thought of sending in two input paramenters and concatenating them into a memo in the sql, but cannot seem to be able to execute the memo variable (i.e. exec(memo) doesn't work). Is there any other options for passing in such a huge parameter.



Also, I do not think there is any other option than passing in the where clause: passing in seperate parameters and building the clause in sql would require over 300 parameters to be passed, and as the possible number of combination is indefinate, I cannot have a different Stored Procedure for each potential case.



Thank you

A Textstring More Than 8000 Chars.

Feb 1, 2001

Hi,
I have a problem with a text string which is more than 8000 chars.
I am taking this string as an input from an application.so,I cannot define a local variable as text or ntext and varchar has limitation of only 8000 char.
Can anyone help me in dealing with this situation.
Also,I cannot break the string at application level.I wish if I could solve it at db level somehow?

I have a column of varchar(2000) but when I use it in a select statement I only get the first 255 characters displayed. (all the data is there as I can see different parts using substring) How do I get the complete column to display?

Can You Parse Out A Text String &> 8000 Chars Long??

Mar 30, 2005

Any way to parse out a text value (not varChar, using text data type) that is > than 8000 characters long? I'm looping through 1 big string passed to the DB that is pipe delimited, but I find myself needing the substring function to keep track of which segment I'm acting on (after an update, I then need to take that segment and remove it from the string)...but the subString function won't take anything larger than 8000 chars.

Say I have this string that is text data type...

'aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|....'

..and so on, surpassing 8000 char length, how could you parse it out using the pipes as the delimter, then do an Update using that segment? Afterward, return to that string and find the next segment, then use it, and so on (in a loop). I tried using an update to set the string = replace(string, segmentJustUsed, '') to "erase" it, but replace can't take text as the datatype. Any help? Hope this isn't to confusing.

SQLServer2000 Xp_sendmail Message Larger Than 8000 Chars

Sep 3, 2007

Books Online gives a way to send a message larger than the VARCHAR max of 8000 chars, but the @query argument to xp_sendmail is a simple text string and my data is much more complex, and formatted. Also BOL shows an example using a temporary text file, but it is not clear precisely how you write your insert statements. I tried the following, which writes out all the data and sends it ok except, after each row, there is about a page of blank spaces. What is wrong with my syntax?

SET LANGUAGE British
GO
DECLARE @msgstr VARCHAR(80)
DECLARE @cmd VARCHAR(80)
DECLARE @PMID INT
DECLARE @forename VARCHAR(30)
CREATE TABLE ##texttab (c1 text)
SET @msgstr = 'THE FOLLOWING QUOTES ARE CURRENTLY MARKED AS PENDING:'
INSERT ##texttab SELECT @msgstr
DECLARE C2 CURSOR FOR SELECT ProjMgrID FROM surdba.SVY_QUOTES WHERE StatusID=6
OPEN C2
FETCH NEXT FROM C2 INTO @PMID
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
IF @PMID > 1000
SELECT @forename = ISNULL(Forename,' ') FROM surdba.SVY_PERSONNEL_GENERAL WHERE EmployeeID = @PMID
ELSE
SET @forename = ' '
INSERT ##texttab values (RTRIM(@forename))
FETCH NEXT FROM C2 INTO @PMID
END
CLOSE C2
DEALLOCATE C2
INSERT ##texttab values ( ' - This information is autogenerated from the Survey database.')
SET @cmd = 'SELECT c1 FROM ##texttab'
EXEC master.dbo.xp_sendmail @recipients = 'Robin Pearce',
@subject = 'ALL PENDING QUOTES',
@query = @cmd,
@no_header = 'TRUE'
DROP TABLE ##texttab
GO


Would appreciate any help on this one, I do not have time to learn HTML,
thanks

VARCHAR(MAX) Only Contains 8000 Characters?

Nov 25, 2007



Hi,

I had a VARCHAR(MAX) parameter declared in my stored procedure and trying to concatenat single column from a table which has~500 rows into a string and keep in this variable, if i am not mistaken, i read that the VARCHAR(MAX) actually can hold up to 2GB of data, so it make me confuse why the variable which i declared as MAX size, can only hold up 8000 characters, any idea?

Varchar Exceed 8000 Issue

I was trying to build a string based on one field from one table in Stored Procedure. I know if I declare A VARCHAR variable for the string, it won’t allow to exceed 8000. If does, it will truncate the reminding parts of the fields. What might be the simple solution for that? Even though I know I might need to use several substrings but how?

Error In SQL-Server 2005 With Varchar 8000

Jun 5, 2006

Hello,

We have migrated a sql server 2000 database to sql server 2005, this was done through scripts (table, stored procedures and data).

To access this database we are using an ASP.Net 2.0 application which uses the sqlhelper Aplication Block to connect to the database.

Everything works fine except one Stored Procedure which has an OUT varchar(8000) parameter.

We use the following .Net Code to execute the stored procedure this stored procedure:

aParams[2] = sSerDatos.GetParameter("@DominiosMenu", DbType.String, 8000);
aParams[2].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;

sSerDatos.ExecuteNonQuery("VM_SDominiosMenu", aParams)

When we invoque the sqlcommand we get this sqlexception:
The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 3 ("@DominiosMenu"): Data type 0xE7 has an invalid data length or metadata length.
If we change the DbType.String Size to 4000 in the .Net code everything works, this same procedure work correctly in SQL Server 2000 with the same .Net code.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

Stored Procedure Varchar (8000) Limitation.

Mar 12, 2008



I have this sql statement in a stored procedure

SELECT @sql=@sql + '''' + convert(varchar(100), pivot) + ''' = ' + stuff(@sumfunc,charindex( '(', @sumfunc )+1, 0, ' CASE ' + @pivot + ' WHEN ' + @delim + convert(varchar(100), pivot) + @delim + ' THEN ' ) + ', ' FROM ##pivot

in the statement, where @sql is defined as DECLARE @sql varchar(Max). the problem is that this statement produces results that are in excess of 8000 characters and the results are truncated. Is there anyway to avoid this? I know that it's not possible to user ntext/text as a local variable, and if i try to return the result as an ouput paramater, only the first result is returned.

my code is based off of this article http://www.sqlteam.com/article/dynamic-cross-tabs-pivot-tables
Thanks for any suggestions.

SqlDbType Chars's And VarChar's

Jun 19, 2006

I have an overloaded method in my data access layer that I use to load the parameters into a command object.  One of these overloaded methods is as follows:
public void LoadSqlParameter(string name, string value, ParameterDirection direction){            param                           = new SqlParameter();            param.ParameterName = name;            param.Value                 = value;            param.Direction            = direction;
            param.SqlDbType        = SqlDbType.VarChar;
            cmd.Parameters.Add(param);}
Will using a SqlDbType of VarChar cause me any problems if the actual parameter in the stored procedure is a Char? 
Am I better off leaving out the line that specifies the type?
Thanks

How To You Convert An Oracle Long Field To Varchar 8000

Jan 17, 2007



I need to handle this conversion in SSIS and not on oracle.

The following expression is executed on a datatype of dt_str with a length of 8000.

SUBSTRING((DT_STR,8000,1252)Column_name,1,8000)

Records longer then 4000 bytes take an error path

The next expression with 4000 bytes works but there is truncation.

SUBSTRING((DT_STR,4000,1252)Column_name,1,4000)

Basically I need to know how to cast a text or ntext into a varchar or nvarchar using ssis but I need to capture the first 8000 byes without truncation.

is this possible?

Using SSIS Reading From oracle I can convert to a text or ntext field but I am having a hard time going directly to a varchar.

Executing Sql Code From Text Field Or From Multiple Varchar(8000) Rows In A Table

Jul 20, 2005

Does anyone know of a way to execute sql code from a dynamically builttext field?Before beginning, let me state that I know this db architecture isbuilt solely for frustration and I hope to make it better soon.Unfortunately, there is never a non-crucial time in which we can do anupgrade, so we are stuck for now.Point 1:There are multiple tables: students, courses, cross-referencestudent/courses, teachers, cross-reference teacher/courses, andothers.Point 2:Yearly archiving is done by appending a 2 digit year suffix to thetable and rebuilding the table structure for the current year. Thatis, each of the tables named above has an archive table for 1999,2000, 2001, etc. This leads to many tables and a big mess whenunioning them.Point 3:A history report is run by building a big query that unions each unionof tables (students, courses, etc) by year. This query has grown toobig for a varchar(8000) field. Actually, it's too big for 2 of them.Point 4:I don't want to write code to maintain any more varchar(8000) fieldsfor this query. It should be much more easily handled with atemporary table holding each bit of yearly archive data. I have builtthis and it works fine. I have also figured out how to pull the rowsfrom that table, concatenate them, and insert the resulting lump intoa text field in another table.Point 5:I haven't figured out how to grab the 5 or so records from that tableand execute them on their own. I figured I could grab them, put theminto a text field that's big enough to hold the whole query and thenselect and execute that text field. I've had no luck with that and Ihaven't had any luck finding any references that might help me withthis problem. I keep thinking of nesting execute() calls, but thatdoesn't work.I'm open to questions, potential solutions, hints about different wayto approach the problem, anything.Many thanks in advance,Rick Caborn

Truncation Error: 255 Chars To 2 Chars.

Aug 27, 2007

Hi,

I am very new to using SSIS.

Trying to import data from MS Access 2000.

I receive the error "
[OLE DB Destination [1907]] Warning: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column "GENDER" with a length of 255 to database column "GENDER" with a length of 2. " on the source flow.

I have done some googling and came up with this post: http://torontosql.dotnetnuke-portal.com/Default.aspx?tabid=32233 which I thought may help, but it does not.

The query against the access datasource features the column: iif([sex]=1, 'm', 'f'). I tried using left(..., 2) as well, but SSIS is determind to treat the field as 255 characters for some reason.

I don't even particualrly care that the field is 255 chars and the sources is only two, I just want the data in! I have other fields coming up with similar error.

Can someone please advise?

PS, what is th significance of the "External Columns" Vs "Output Columns" on the Input and Output Properties tab in Advanced Editor?

I am really struggling with SSIS, it is not as intuitive as DTS.

Stored Proc With Varchar Output Parameter

Nov 30, 2004

Hi Guys
I am wondering if you could spare some time and help me out with this puzzle.
I am new to this stuff so please take it easy on me.

I’m trying to create procedure which will take 2 input parameters and give me 1 back.
Originally there will be more outputs but for this training exercise 1 should do.
There are 2 tables as per diagram below and what I’m trying to do is
Verify username & password and pull out user group_name.

|---------------| |-----------------------|
| TBL_USERS | |TBL_USER_GROUPS|
|---------------| |-----------------------|
| USERNAME | /|GROUP_ID |
| PASSWORD | / |GROUP_NAME |
| GROUP_ID |< | |
|---------------| |-----------------------|

For my proc. I am using some ideas from this and some other sites, but obviously i've done something wrong.

'====================================================
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.try01
(
@UserName varchar(50),
@Password varchar(50),
@Group varchar Output

ON TBL_USERS.GROUP_ID = TBL_USER_GROUPS.GROUP_ID
WHERE (TBL_USERS.USERNAME = @UserName)

and this is what i'm getting in VS.Net while trying to save.


'====================================================
ADO error: A select statement that assigns a value to variable must
not be combined with data-retrieval operation.

I did not see any samples on the net using ‘varchar’ as OUTPUT usually they where all ‘int’s. Could that be the problem?

Problem With Output Parameters That Are Varchar And Null

May 30, 2006

I am using version 9.00.2047.00 SP1 of Visual Studio 2005.

Using ADO.NET, I have been unable to get the Execute SQL task to successfully return the value of an output parameter defined as varchar or nvarchar when the value is null. No other data types seem to have this problem, including the sql_variant data type.

Here is the stored procedure I am calling:

create proc spx
@in int = null output,
@vc nvarchar(10) = null output,
@dt datetime = null output
as
select
@in = null,
@vc = null,
@dt = null
return

The variables to which the three output parameters return their values have a data type of Object. The task runs fine when the integer or datetime parameters are used, and the variables can be identified as null using IsDBNull. But as soon as the nvarchar (or varchar) parameter is included, the task fails with this message:

"The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 1 ("@vc"): Data type 0xE7 has an invalid data length or metadata length."

I have seen a couple of postings that sound similar to this problem, but so far I have found no resolution. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Ron Rice

SQL Server 2012 :: How To Preserve Tags In Varchar Output

May 6, 2015

I have following XQuery:

declare @xmldoc as xml
select @xmldoc = '<Text>This is firstline<Break />This is second line<Break />This is third line</Text>'
select @xmldoc.value('(/Text)[1]','varchar(max)')Result is: "This is firstlineThis is second lineThis is third line"

My problem is, that the <Break /> tags within the text are removed in the conversion to varchar. How to preserve the such tags in the varchar output? Or to get the <Break /> tags "translated" to e.g. CHAR(10)?
