MS SQL Server :: Doube Byte Characters

Searching A String With Asian Characters (double Byte)
My problem is that i can't search a field that contains Asian characters (Korean in this case).

The table user_Access_tab have 2 keys:

access_id nVarchar(50)

user_id nVarchar(50)

The sql query below is sent through a oledbcommand to a sql server 2005 database.

"select access_id, access_right from user_Access_tab where user_id ='HQ001kimjo012007-05-07 ì˜¤ì „ 11:50:323401'"

It doesn't show any hits even thogh i know there is a number of matching records.

The question doesn't generate an answer in SQL server manager studio eigher.

If i change the datatype on user_id to Varchar(50) the id is presented (in the database) as:

HQ001kimjo012007-05-07 ?? 11:50:323401

Then the question works, but why doesn't it work with nVarChar(50)?

Byte[] Value In SQL Query...
Hi people,I have a little problem with this!There are some variables in C# code: int personID = 10;
string personName = "Tom";

System.IO.BinaryReader reader = new System.IO.BinaryReader(FileUploadPersonPhoto.PostedFile.InputStream);

byte[] personPhoto = reader.ReadBytes(FileUploadPersonPhoto.PostedFile.ContentLength); After that, there is a SQL query: string query = "INSERT INTO PersonTable (PersonID, PersonName, PersonPhoto) VALUES ("

+ personID + ", '" + personName + "', " + personPhoto + ")"; In Debug mode, value of the query is "INSERT INTO PersonTable (PersonID, PersonName, PersonPhoto) VALUES (10, 'Tom', System.Byte[])" and it does not work! Is there any prefix or something else that I should put and make it work?Thank you in advance!P.S. Do not want to use sql parameters at this piont!

SQL Binary To C# Byte[]
I have a binary column with length 20 in SQL server table. I store dynamically C# byte[] value range from 0 to 19. So for example, If I store length of 16 and when I try to retrive it back into byte [] in C# it returns whole length 20. When I see in debug it has value from 0 to 15 which I want to use but from 16 to 19 is zero. How can I get just length value which I stored.

I use DataRow to get whole row and from the row object I extract byte [] based on column name.

Thank you in advance....

DATEADD With 8 Byte Int?
I have a bigint column called "MillisecondsSince1970" that I need to convert to a date - SSIS is erroring out when I use DATEADD with the 8 byte int (if I use 4 byte it works but the column is bigger than 4 byte). The error is really lame:

[Derived Column [79]] Error: The "component "Derived Column" (79)" failed because error code 0xC0049067 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "Date" (100)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.

Anyone have a way around it... a VB.NET equivalent of DATEADD or something else I can do?

CLR UDT Max Byte Size
Hello,

I need some help working with CLR UDTs. I have created two UDTs called trajectory and point. Each trajectory consists of a list of points. Each point consists of three members : lon( type double), lat( type double) and datetime.

I have written my own IBinarySerialize.Write method for the trajectory type which is the following:

Dim maxSize As Integer = 4000
Dim value As String = ""
Dim paddedvalue As String

Dim i As Integer
Dim pt As Point

For i = 0 To point_list.Count - 1

pt = point_list.Item(i)

If i = 0 Then
value = value & pt.X & "|" & pt.Y & "|" & pt.D

Else

value = value & ">" & pt.X & "|" & pt.Y & "|" & pt.D
End If

Next

paddedvalue = value.PadRight(maxSize, ControlChars.NullChar)

For i = 0 To paddedvalue.Length - 1 Step 1
w.Write(paddedvalue(i))
Next

If I try to store 225 points for a trajectory then the following error occurs:

System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException: The buffer is insufficient. Read or write operation failed.

Why is that happening? The limit size for a UDT is 8000bytes. Each point needs 24Bytes (2*SizeOf(double) + sizeOf(Datetime)).

Please help

Separate Lowercase Characters From Uppercase Characters

Hi everybody,
I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?

Double-byte In MSSQL

EACH of the Chinese words are become a qustion mark '?' if the UPDATE SQL or stored procedure executed in the following:

Ftp Task- 0 Byte File
hi,

i'm using FTP task in my control flow and using *.xml to receive all files at a particular ftp location. Often I see that a 0 byte file is created by the IS package, instead of transferring the file. Is this a known bug? Is there a way to circumvent it? Also, on one of the occasions, the package just hanged for about 60 minutes (while atttempting to receive the file). FTP Connection timeout was set to default (60 sec), I wonder why the FTP task didnt return a timeout error!

Any clues?

Create Certificate From Byte[]
Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows if you can create a certificate from a byte[]. For example, you can create an assembly using CREATE ASSEMBLY FROM 0x...; specifying the hex representation of it - can you do the same with a certificate? This means that you don't need to save the file to disk before loading it into the database.

Cheers,

Bulk Insert From Zero Byte File
Ok, hope someone has an idea out there. I have eight fixed width text files that I am importing into SQL 2000 tables in stored procedures called from a vb.net program. Problem is one of the files stands a good chance of being 0 k. As of I now i call one stored proc that then calls one proc for each file. If i try to run it anyhting after the zero byte file fails to import. If i remark it out everything else imports. I check for file.exists on the vb.net and the file passes the test. Any way to handle the 0 byte on the proc side

DTS: Handling Zero Byte Input Files
Good Day,

I have a situation where I need to be able to gracefully handle zero byte text files to be processed by DTS (using ActiveX Script transformations).

I have a job set up in SQL Server that executes several DTS packages, then executes a Transact SQL script to process the data imported by DTS. This all works fine, but there are instances where some of files have no data to be imported. This causes the entire job to fail -- I don't want to alter the job to continue on an error because there is a legimate potential for errors. I do, however, want to be to have the job continue if one of the DTS packages has no data to process. Is there a way (DTS object method, property) to check for the absence of data before the DTS package errors out? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Robin Sarac

Derived Column Can't Add 8-byte Integers
I'm having trouble adding a 4-byte integer with an 8-byte integer. Here's what I'm doing:

Column Name: BIG_ID

Derived Column: < add as new column >

Expression: (DT_I8)[ID] + 840230000538058

Data Type: eight-byte signed integer  {DT_I8]

The error I get:

The literal 840230000538058 is too large to fit into type DT_I4. The magnitude of the literal overflows the type.

Then I try the expression:

(DT_I8)[ID] + (DT_I8)840230000538058

and

[ID] + 840230000538058

and get the same error.

What am I doing wrong? Is it possible to add 2 8-byte integers in regular expression? Why does it still think the literal is DT_I4?

Thanks,

Michael

Help: 900 Byte Limit On Stored Procedure Parameter?
Hi,I have a .NET application that I want to save the Config.EXE contentsto my SQL database for remote review/testing. This config file is3700+ bytes long. I created a field in one of my tables with a VARCHAR4800 and then created a stored procedure that receives a parameter(also VARCHAR(4800).However it fails to write anything if the length of the value that Ipass is anything greater than 900. If I pass exactly 900 characters orless - the data is written to the field. If I pass 901 characters Iget nothing.I'm suspicious since it is exactly 900. I seriously doubt it's somelimitation of MS-SQL so I need a nudge in the right direction.Thanks

Breaking Data Into 1500 Byte Chunks
Hi,

I have a text file (5 MB). It appears as a single line in a text editor. But actually it has records of 1500 byte length each.

I want to strip it down to 1500 byte records. So 1500*3500 = 5 MB (approx). The record size is always 1500 bytes.

Does anyone have a script that I can run on this file to achieve this break.

DTS - Zerp Byte File Import And DontExecuteTask
Hi, I'm a bit new to DTS but the problem I have encountered relates to importing a text file. On occasion the file is zero bytes which causes an error in DTS. I have added some VBScript to the workflow to check the filesize. If size > 0 then I set Main = DTSStepScriptResult_ExecuteTask otherwise Main = DTSStepScriptResult_DontExecuteTask. This all works fine except that when the file is 0 the dependent process that is waiting for completion/success does not run, presumably because the task was not run (as reqd). I have tried setting the status rather the DontExecuteTask but then the task runs anyway creating the error. Anyonw know how to get this to work or how to get around the problem?

How To: Store And Retrieve Images In A Database As A Byte Array.
I€™ve inherited a project from one of the guys on our team who will be out sick for a while. He developed two for marshaling data between System.Drawing.Image and System.Byte(). He€™s storing the byte array data in a database image field.

I€™ve retrieved the byte array data from his database image fields and have successfully converted them to images using his ConvertByteArrayToImage method below. I have also converted and image to a byte array with his ConvertImageToByteArray method below and succfully stored the data in a database image field. However, when I retrieve the byte array data that I stored in the database the last line in his ConvertByteArrayToImage method throws an exception (Parameter is not valid). I€™ve not been able to find a working copy of his code that€™s storing the byte array data. Does anyone see anything I€™m overlooking?

Writing Byte Stream To Flat File Destination (ebcdic)
Hello all,
I was trying to run a test to write a ebcdic file out with a comp - 3 number (testing this for other people) and have run into a problem writing the string out to the flat file destination. I have the following script component:

Code Block

' Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services user script component
' This is your new script component in Microsoft Visual Basic .NET
' ScriptMain is the entrypoint class for script components
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Public Overrides Sub CreateNewOutputRows()
'
' Add rows by calling AddRow method on member variable called "Buffer"
' E.g., MyOutputBuffer.AddRow() if your output was named "My Output"
'
Output0Buffer.AddRow()
Dim myByteArray() As Byte = {&H12, &H34, &H56, &H7F}
Output0Buffer.myByteStream = myByteArray
Output0Buffer.myString = "ABCD"
Output0Buffer.myString2 = "B123"
myByteArray = Nothing
End Sub
End Class

I have added myByteStream as a DT_BYTES length 4, myString as (DT_STR, 4, 37) and myString2 as (DT_STR, 4, 37) to the output 0 buffer.

I then add a flat file destination with code set 37 (ebcdic us / canda) with the corresponding columns using fixed width.

When i place a dataviewer on the line between the two the output looks as I expect ("0x12 0x34 0x56 0x7F", "ABCD", "B123"). However, when it gets to the flat file destination it errors out with the following:

Code Block
[Flat File Destination [54]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "myByteStream" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".

If i increase the size of the byte stream (say, to 50) the error goes away but I am left with the string "1234567F" instead of the appropriate hex values. Any clues on how to go about this? I obviously don't care if it gets transferred to "readable" text as this is supposed to be a binary stream, thus the no match in target page seems superfulous but is probably what is causing the problems.

NOTE: this is relating to the following thread (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2300539&SiteID=1) in that I am trying to determine why these people are not seeing the "UseBinaryFormat" when importing an EBCDIC file (i see this fine when i use an ftp'd file, but it auto converts to ascii) with comp-3 values. I also see the "UseBinaryFormat" when I am importing a regular EBCDIC file which I create that has no import errors with zoned decimals.

Do Stored Procedures Have A Limit On Number Of Parameters Or Byte Size Passed In?
Hi,I'm using c# with a tableadapter to call stored procedures. I'm running into a problem where if I have over a certain byte size or number of parameters being passed into my stored proc I get an exception that reads: "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized." If I remove one parameter, the problem goes away. Has anyone run into this before? Thanks,Mark

Unable To Cast Object Of Type 'System.DBNull' To Type 'System.Byte[]'.
Hi,
I have developed a custom server control for .NET Framework 2.0. The server control has a property named BinaryData of type byte[]. I marked this property to be data bindable. Now, I have varbinary(Max) type of field in my SQL Database and I have used SQLDataSource and bound this varbinary(Max) field with the property BinaryData (byte[]) of my control. It is working fine as long as the data value is not NULL. Now, In my control, I have handled the NULL value so that no Exception is thrown. Still, when I bind this property using the SQLDataSource, I get Error "Unable to cast object of type 'System.DBNull' to type 'System.Byte[]'." I am not sure if I can do anything to stop this erro within my control. If it is not possible from the control, then what is the workaround that I can do in my ASPX page in order to stop this error ?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Add Characters
I have a field oh phone numbers that had no specific format. I have removed all of the previous formatting so know there are just a string of 10 numbers and I want them all to change to "(###) ###-####". Is there an SQL statement that I can use to update the field in a batch process. Any help would be great. I also have linked the tables to an access db, if that makes it easier. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Can't Insert Enough Characters...
I must be doing something wrong, but I cannot imagine what it could be. I made a brand new table and started to enter some data. I am putting the initail data in using Enterprise Manager. This is essentially test data for development. I have several varchar columns set to 8000 for their size. When I try to enter text into them it is getting truncated at 999 characters. I thought that maybe I misunderstood the varchar type and that 1000 characters is 8000 bits and that is what the 8000 means. So, I redid the table with the datatype "text" for my long columns. Same thing. It is being truncated at 999. Is there something I am missing here? I am not trying to do anything tricky or confusing, I am simply trying to put more than 1000 characters into a table column.I should mention that I have been pasting the text that is copied from Notepad (to remove any extranous formatting). The text cuts cut off and I cannot even type in the column after that.Any clues would really be appreciated.

Select Characters Between...
Ok.. I inhertited a program that has columns called cpt_codes, cpt_to, and cpt_from all of them are varchar fields. The user can input a cpt code and the program checks to see if it fall between cpt_to and cpt_from so00101 would fall betwen 00100 and 00110. The problem these are varchars so the user has a code 0024t and is pulling up between 00100 and 01999 which is techinically correct. However thats not where it's supposed to be. Is there a way to get around this? the sql statement currently in place is:SELECT * fROM CPT_TOS WHERE CPT_FROM <= '0024T' AND CPT_TO >= '0024T'*Not my sql statement or design!!" ThanksRobert.

Accentuated Characters SQL
I use Webmatrix together with Frontpage 2002.
In one of my Webmatrix pages I refer to a field "Prénom" when doing queries.

Sometimes after publishing these pages from my local to my hosted server the é disappears in the source code and SQL server does not find the column.

I have the feeling it has to do with codepage and/or Content.

Has anyone a precise idea.

Non English Characters
Hi,We are developing a small web interface to a local ERP software, whichuses SQL Server 2000 as database. The database uses SQL_Latin1_CP1collation, and the fields are varchar (not nvarchar), however, the mainprogram inserts and reads non-English (Turkish) characters into thesecolumns. However, when we connect to database with ADO.NET, thesecharacters are not read correctly. (The situation is same when I checktables with Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer)In a past situation (which was about a Win32 application), I have heardabout character conversion behaviour of ADO (and many other DBlibraries) and solved that problem using BDE instead of ADO, so thatthe connection is made via DB-Library instead of OLEDB.But this way cannot be applied to my ASP.NET situation, and there is NOway to change database collation. Must I use a ADO.NET property, or useanother provider, or maybe another library? Any advices? Thanks...
