Phone Number Formatting
 

If I have a string of 10 numbers (with no other characters), what is the best way to format them into a standard phone format: xxx-xxx-xxxx?

 

I tried numerous variations in the format code and edit expression areas, but no luck.

Remove Formatting From Phone Number Column
I have a column of phone numbers that have formatting such as (xxx)xxx-xxxx,
or xxx.xxx.xxxx or xxx.xxx-xxxx; however, not all phone numbers are formatted in this fashion. I need to remove all characters and only leave behind numeric digits to look like xxxxxxxxxx. I have tried select replace(colname,'-','') from table. This does the trick but does not actually change the values in the column. Any help in accomplishing this would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Visual Web Developer 2005 Express -- With SQL Server Developer 2005?
Can someone here confirm or deny that Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition doesn't work with SQL Server Developer Edition 2005?



I
was about to order SQL Server Developer Edition 2005 on Amazon, to use
with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, when I read a user comment that
the two are incompatible with each other. Does anyone know for sure if
that is true?



What I'm wanting to do is develop an ASP.NET web
application on a web host using a SQL Server database. I use VS2003 and SQL
Server Enterprise 2000 at work, but I'd like to learn the 2005 editions
for this side project. I don't own any of the developer tools/IDEs
personally, so I'm trying to find the most affordable way to do this
for my home business.



Thanks for any advice,

Keith

Can I Use SQL Server 2005 Developer With Visual Web Developer?
There are conflicting postings everywhere about this.  I built a small site using VWD and SQL Server Express, but need to convert to Sql Server 2005 Developer because the DB will exceed 4Gb.  Tried to install and could not connect or use from VWD.  Tried to uninstall, got into large mess with the byzantine uninstall process, and have now started with a clean machine.
 
I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer first, then installed VWD Express 2008 without installing SQL Server Express.  VWD won't let me connect to an existing database, won't let me add a new database and doesn't even show the Database Tools option under the Tools menu.
 
Is there someone with specific knowledge that can provide any enlightenment?  Would be much appreciated.

this results in PropertyName - 5555551212
 
How would I add in formatting for phone so my resulting display is (555) 555-1212?

Getting Up And Running With Visual SQL Server 2005 Express And Visual Web Developer 2005 Express
I've downloaded and installed both of these (VWD installs both) and have been trying to run through the walkthrough of setting up a web application which supports membership.  However, no matter what I do I invariably get errors like the following:


An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I'm concerned why VWD and VSQL express versions don't run correctly out of the box (so to speak).  I'm not an expert on configuring these services -- but that's the point of offering these tools to hobbyists:  So we can learn about how to make some of these great applications using MS tools.
My configuration::


Windows XP SP2 -- clean machine as of about a month ago, never had any dev tools, web servers, or the like on it.

IIS is installed and the service says its running

VSQL and VWD express versions installed (no errors on installation)

SQL server service indicates it is running

.Net 2.0 framework installed (no errors on installation)

Note:  I've tried installing on two separate machines.  Obviously I'm missing something fundamental.

Would someone please help me go through the million things I [apparently] need to do to configure all these tools so I can get on to actually coding up my first web application?  If this is documented somewhere, all I can say is I tried to find it but it certainly wasn't obvious.

Formatting Phone Numbers
What is the simplest way to format the 10 digit numeric string that represents a phone number, so that the result appearing on a web page looks like (xxx) xxx-xxxx. Should this take place in the database or out at the web server or where?

Formatting Phone Numbers In SQL
Here's my problem: I have to clean up a SQL Server 2005 database with a large number of phone number records (several hundred thousand). The records are of varchar datatype and contain phone numbers in every format imaginable. In fact, many records have written notes regarding the phone numbers after the numbers themselves. What I need to do is format all of the phone numbers to this format:

###-###-####-

Basically I'm figuring I need to do the following:
1. Strip all non-numeric characters from the record
2. Remove the 1 from any records that have a leading 1 (in many cases the records contain stuff like 1-888-555-1234)
3. Remove any digits following the first 10 digits (they don't want to keep any extensions - the formatting is more important)
4. Add dashes after the first three digits, after the second three and at the end of the phone number

This seems like a rather complex problem to me, and honestly I don't even know where to begin. I can accomplish this rather easily in javascript or C#, but writing SQL to solve this is beyond me. I'd really appreciate any help you guys can provide. Thanks alot!

Visual Web Developer && Server 2005
Yes I am a newby (or is that newbie) and this is my first post.My Visual Web Developer site work really well on my PC, I read the books took it slowly, created logins and sql tables and then found a good hosting company with Server 2005 ... I though I was one step away from the road to success ... then I hit the big brick wall. Spent hours on Google trying to find some answers without joy ... all I found were lots of users with the same or similar problems ... and some answers that caused more problems !1) Please can someone give my a 'step by step' idiots guide on how to convert my ASPNETDB.MDF content to run on Server 2005. I have Server Management Studio so I am happy about loading the translated files but I don't understand how to break them down into tables and logs.2) Once the files are across can I run a connection string from VWD directly to the tables on the server instead of SQL local ? I assume that is set in web.config !!.... normally I am happy to learn by trial and error. But I can't get around or over this brick wall.Welcome assistance, advice or a ladder ... with simple instructions ?

Why Can't I Acces My SQL Server 2005 Db After Working With Visual Web Developer?
I am developing an asp.net app using visual web developer.  I am using a sql server 2005 db for the back end.  I have learned that I have to restart my machine if I want to work with the db in SQL Server 2005 Express after working with it in Visual Web Developer.
 
I am wondering why this is.  I am assuming that the db is locked when it is used with VWD.  Is this correct?  Am I refering to it's status of "locked" correctly?  Should I call this something else?

Problem Installing SQL 2005 Developer + Express And Visual Studio 2008
I installed both SQL 2005 developer and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit.

I installed visual studio 2008 as well. For some reason the start menu link for "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" is ""C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe"" and devenv.exe is not there or anywhere

Trouble Installing Reporting Add-In For Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express
Hi Folks

 

I've downloaded & installed Visual Web developer Express and SQL Server Express and now I'm trying to install the Reporting Add-In available here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/downloads/default.aspx

 

It downloads just fine and, just as the installation progress bar is almost done and the status text says 'Registering Product', I get the following error message:

"There is a problem with this windows installer package.  A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personell or package vendor"

 

Running VWD shows the ReportViewer control now appears in the 'data' group. I can add it to a form, but I cannot create a new report, as clicking on 'Design a new report' under the ReportView Tasks popup menu does nothing.

 

Any ideas, please?

 

Thanks

UNABLE TO ESTABLISH USER INSTANCE - Visual Web Developer 2005 Edition
Hi:

 

I have SQL Serrver 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services running on a machine with Vista Home Premium o/s.

 

I am trying to build the Personal Web Site Starter Kit using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition but keep running into problems when trying to establish user instance. The error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The conmnection will be closed" keeps coming up.

 

The following services are running:

SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)

SQL Server Browser

SQL Server Full Text Search

SQL Server VSS Writer

 

I note from the documentation that a new instance should be created  in the directory :

C:Documents and Settings<User>Local SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server DataSQLEXPRESS.

Unfortunately that directory does not exist on my Vista machine. Is this a fault?

Should I create this directory?

 

Any help will be gratefully received.

Phone Number Formating
Hello and thanks for taking time to read this post!  Thanks in advance to any and all who reply
 
I am creating a report that is pulling phone numbers from a DB.  Unfortunately the person who designed the DB and the app that is related, not me , did not restrict formating on the phone number field.  So I have a midry of values in the DB.  Most common is xxxxxxxxxx, some are xxx-xxx-xxxx, and yet others are NULL in value. I looked over KB157328 and found this:
 
Code Snippet=System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Phone.Value, "(d{3})[ -.]*(d{3})[ -.]*(d{4})", "($1) $2-$3") 
If I drop that in to the TextBox I get nicely formatted phone numbers if the values in the DB are xxxxxxxxxx or xxx-xxx-xxxx.  But, if the value is NULL I get, #ERROR.  So I pondered this a bit and came up with:
Code Snippet=iif(Fields!Phone.Value is Nothing," ",(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Phone.Value, "(d{3})[ -.]*(d{3})[ -.]*(d{4})", "($1) $2-$3"))) 
Again nice form formatting for values in the DB that are xxxxxxxxxx or xxx-xxx-xxxx. But again if the value is NULL I get, #ERROR. So I tried:
Code Snippet=iif(IsNothing(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Fax.Value, "(d{3})[ -.]*(d{3})[ -.]*(d{4})", "($1) $2-$3")), " ",(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Fax.Value, "(d{3})[ -.]*(d{3})[ -.]*(d{4})", "($1) $2-$3")))  And the same results Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong in my expression or have a better way to deal with this?Again, Thanks in advance for any and all help!Fred Stemp

Basic Sql Querying In Visual Web Developer
I'd like to be able to query a database to get the value of a
certain row.  However, I'd like to save this value into a variable
and use them as I'd like, NOT nessessarily display them in a data
control such as a gridview etc.  I've been able to find a lot of
information on binding datasourses to predefined data controls, but I
can't find anything on simply querying a database for values and using
those values to display a page as I want.My basic end goal is to create what's basically a shopping site like Amazon only for about 100 or so products.Thanks
in advance for any help.  I'm just getting into Visual Web
Developer so please excuse my ignorance and lack of posts.
