I have seen many references to this problem on the internet, but no solutions...I am hoping someobdy can help me.
I am trying to select 1 record from a huge SQL SERVER table (approximately 1 million records) using VB6 and ADO. I cannot use the Recordset.Find property because I am searching on more than one field, and the Recordset.Seek property is not supported.
So I am left with the dreaded Recordset.Filter property, which takes an extremely long time to find the record. I would think it wouldn't be so slow, because the fields I am searching on are the primary key.
Surely it shouldn't take SQL Server several minutes to look up one record by the primary key?
The code is basically this:
CON.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Server=TheServer;Database=TheDatabase"
RS.Open TableName, CON, nRSCursorMode, nRSLockMode, adCmdTableDirect
RS.Filter = "Field1='ABC' AND Field2='DEF'" ' < several minutes go by
Where the primary key for the table consists of "FIeld1" and "Field2".
I have tried every combination of Cursor Mode and Lock Mode, but none are fast.
Ideally the SQLOLEDB provider should implement the Recordset's .Seek method, but that doesn't seem to be the case. If I can't look up a value using an index, how else would I do this?
I'm using a stored procedure in SQL Server to generate multiple recordsets. The recordset are however generated conditionally. create procedure GetData ( @a bit @b bit )
Select * from Customers
IF(@a=1) Select * from Products
IF(@b=1) Select * from Details ------------Issue:The adapter returns the table named as Table, Table1(optional) and Table2(optional). It might be that Table1 is products or Table1 is Details.How can I map my tablename property in this scenario where the sequence of tables is not known.

Hi all...I've been stumped by this for days. Bit of ASP code: (IIS)Set LocalConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")LocalConn.CursorLocation = adUseClientLocalConn.CommandTimeout = 0LocalConn.Open sConnStringSO (SQL Server 2000, irrelevant what it is,see below).LocalConn.Errors.ClearCountDuplicatesSQL = "select * from dbo.tbl1 WHERE DESC LIKE 'aaa'"oRss.OpenCountDuplicatesSQL,LocalConn,adOpenDynamic,adLockR eadOnly,acCmdTextthis hangs and then results with "timeout expired".the same SQL works flawlessly if tested on query analyzer, with thesame connection Login.And I found, that If I remove the WHERE clause, it works withoutproblems..., both in ASP and Query analyzer.I have another connection running in parallel to this one, Serverside, but to a different database on the same server. If I disable it,the above code works. But, I need it open all the time...if its the two connections conflicting, how come the code above workswith a simple Select but not with a WHERE criteria on it, under thesame two connection conditions?~Thanks for insights.
Hello All, Can someone please help me with this problem. I have created additional profile properties for my users in the aspnet_profile table. One of the properties is named 'Division'. The division property is how I segregate users, for example, my company has multiple divisions and, the information that is displayed is dynamic according to which divison the user belongs to. Amost all of my stored proceedures are filtered by checking the value of Profile.Division of the logged in user. This system works great. The problem is, now I am working on user management and I need to create a Gridview that will display all of the users for a particular division but, I have no idea how to filter a query against the aspnet database to get the results I am looking for. Here is a small example:SELECT aspnet_Users.UserName, aspnet_Profile.PropertyNames, aspnet_Profile.PropertyValuesStringFROM aspnet_Profile INNER JOIN aspnet_Users ON aspnet_Profile.UserId = aspnet_Users.UserId******** Here is the part I need help with *********************WHERE PROFILE.DIVISION = KOr, can it even be done? Can you filter a query on the value of a profile property?Anyone have any ideas?Thanks in adavance for your help
I am having problems exporting data into a flat file using specific code page. My application has a variable "User::CodePage" that stores code page value (936, 950, 1252, etc) based on the data source. This variable is assigned to the CodePage property of desitnation file connection using Property expression.
But, when I execute the package, the CodePage property of the Destination file connection defaults to the initial value that was set for "User:CodePage" variable in design mode. I checked the value within the variable during runtime and it changes correctly for each data source. But, the property of the destinatin file connection doesn't change and results in an error.
[Flat File Destination [473]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column01" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: The ProcessInput method on component "Flat File Destination" (473) failed with error code 0xC02020A0. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running.
If I manually update the variable with correct code page and re-run the ETL, everything works fine. Just that it doesn't work during run-time mode.
I developed a simple custom control flow component which has several read/write properties and one readonly property (lets call it ROP) whichs Get method simple returns the value of a private variable (VAR as string). In the Execute method the VAR has a value assigened. When I put the value of ROP or VAR into MsgBox I can see the correct value. However when I execute the component I can not see the value of the ROP in the property window. I see the property but its value is empty string. For example when I put a breakpoint to postexecute or check the property before click OK in a MsgBox I would expect that the property value would be updated in SSIS as well. Is there a way how to display correct values of custom tasks properties in property window?
Untill recently I had a smooth running SSIS package,but suddenly it throws error syaing "OnError,,,,,,,The result of the expression
"@[User:trTextFileImpDirectory] +"SomeTextStringHere"+ @[User:trANTTextFileName] +(DT_STR,30,1252) @[User:taging_Date_Key]+ "SomeTextStringHere" " on property "ConnectionString" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property."
I have child SSIS package running under a parent package (through execute package task)
I have few flat file connection managers in child package for text file import , in which I am building text file path dynamically at run time by assigning an expression in connection string property of connection manager. The Expression is as follows
Where @[User:trTextFileImpDirectory] is a variable which contains path of directory containg text files.Value in this variable is assigned at runtime from parent package's variable,which in turns fetch value from a configuration file on local server.
With my current configuration this path has been configured to some other server's directory over network ( I.e my package picks text files from some other servers folder over network)
While "Some string here"+ @[User:trANTTextFileName]" part of file name string.
(DT_STR,30,1252) @[User:taging_Date_Key] Contain the date of processing ,value in this variable is also picked up at run time from parent package variable.
1) So can someone give me some insight into possible reason of failures. 2) Is it possible that problem arises if directory (from which I m picking text files) is assigned password or is there exist some problem in accessing forlders over network ? 3) Or there can be some problem in package configuration at design time( I.e where I m assigning value in variable from parent package vriables)?
I use SQL Server 2005. I have approx. 50 tables in my database and 30 of them have a filed named "CompanyID". Example: create table A (ID int identity, NAME varchar(100), COMPANYID int)create table A (ID int identity, REF_ID int, FIELD1 varchar(100), FIELD2 varchar(100), COMPANYID int)
Also there are nearly 200 stored procedures that read data from these tables. Example: create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */ select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ... /* ... */end;
All my queries in the Stored procedure does not filter the tables by CompanyID, so they process the entire data.
However, now we have a requirement to separate the data for each company. That means that we have to put a filter by CompanyID to each of those 20 tables in each query where the tables appear.
Firstly, I put the CompanyID in the context so now its value is accessible through the context_info() function. Thus I do not need now to pass it as a parameter to the stored procedures.
However, I don't know what is the easiest and fastest way to filter the tables. Example:
I modified the above mentioned procedure in the following way: create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */ -- gets the CompanyID from the context: DECLARE @CompanyID int; SELECT @CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info())) select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ... and A.COMPANYID = @CompanyID and B.COMPANYID = @CompanyID /* ... */end;
Now I have the desired filter by CompanyID. However, modifying over 200 stored procedures is rather tedious work and I don't think that this is the best approach. Is there any functionality in SQL Server that can provide the possibility to put an automatic filter to the tables. For example: when I wrote "SELECT * FROM A", the actual statements to be executed would be "SELECT * FROM A WHERE CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info()))".
I was looking for something like "INSTEAD OF SELECT" triggers but I didn't manage to find any answer.
I would very grateful is someone suggests a solution for something like "global table filter" (that will help me make an easy refactoring)?
I have a table that has a group. In this group, I want to filter by 2 different expressions, concatenated with an OR. BUT I can't change the "And/Or" column value for the first entry because it is grayed out. The column will automatically change to an OR value if both my expression column fields are the same (which I don€™t want) but if I put any other value in to the expression field of the second row, the "And/Or" field of the first row automatically changes to an AND.
PLEASE! How do I get the And/Or field "ungrayed" so I can change it to what I want?
The 2 filters I and using check the UserID = to the user, and the other is checking a count to get the Top N 1. (So just showing the current user and the top producer)
The header table row for G4 contains 3 textboxes containing the sums of the contents within G4. The header table row for G4 is visible while it's contents, including the G4 footer table row, is kept invisible until the report user drills down into the group.
When the report user drills down into G4 the footer table row becomes visible and the sums of the contents of the group are displayed for a second time.
At this point I want the sums in the header to be set to invisible when the sums in the footer are made visible by the drilldown.
When I try to reference the hidden property of textbox66 in the G4 footer in order to set the hidden property of header textbox57 in the G4 header I get to this point...
=IIF(reportitems!textbox66.
When it fails to give me an option of choosing the .Hidden property and instead only gives me a .Value.
If I complete the IIF statement manually so that it spells out .....
So my question is, how do I reference the hidden property of one or more textboxes in a group to use as condition checks to set the hidden property of another textbox in that same group?
Thank you for any help you can provide. We are only now beginning to implement reporting services and I have not yet had the chance to research this in greater detail for lack of time.
Hi, I am trying to cycle through a table and trigger an event based on some critera. I am not sure how to do it. I am a classic VBA guy, so I might be way off: Dim myConnection As SqlConnection Dim myCommand As SqlCommand myConnection = New SqlConnection("MY SQL DATA SOURCE") myConnection.Open()
myCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM history", myConnection) Dim dr = myCommand.ExecuteReader() Dim i As Integer = 1
While dr.read() i = i + 1 ' HOW DO I CYCLE THROUGH THE ROWS AND ASK IF A FIELD EQUALS A VALUE ' field name = "Tail"
hi I have 3 tables:Article,Source and File. Each article can have multiple filenames. The fields of table Article are:ArticleID,SourceID,ArticleDate,ArticleCategory The fields of table Source are:SourceID,SourceName the fields of Table File:ID,ArticleID,Filename Select*from Article inner join Source on Article.SourceID=source.SourceID order by ArticleDate I obtain a number of recordsets from the above query. Then for each recordset(Rs1),Let's say for the first recordset Rs1.MoveFirst I want to apply this query: Rs2.Open"Select SourceName,ArticleDate,File.Filename from [RS1] inner Join File on Article.ArticleID=File.ArticleID I want from the above query to have the Filenames corresponding to each Article because in my VB form I have 2 command buttons:one gives me the article's definition(Date,Source) and the other gives me the Filename of the current recordset(Article) The above SQL syntax is it correct?
SELECT TOP 2 MenuComments, MenuDate, MenuID, MenuIsActive, MenuName FROM Menu ORDER BY MenuDate DESC
This orders the data correctly, but the problem is, I need ONLY the SECOND row, not the top row. Also, because I am sorting for menus entered into the system, I cannot use a variable based on real dates (in other words, I can't use the server clock to help filter the results).
Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated -- I've been banging my head against this one all day!
I am using classic ASP. Records are grouped together by a GroupUnique number. Some groups are small with about 10 records, othere are larger at about 160.
For each record, I have about 50 columns of data that I need to display on a webpage. Because the 50 columns don't easily fit on the one page, I create two tables, each displaying 26 columns, the first columnn being an ID column. Due to the size of groups, sometimes the tables are very large - and when they get too big it overloads the server.
I think the main problem is the two tables. I use two recordsets (one of them is shown below - although instead of a SELECT * I do in fact name the columns needed for each table). I have to use two because the Recordsets don't like me using the ID column again - once it is used it is gone.
Is there a better way to store all of this information so that I can just use the one recordset? Possibly in an array? Is there a more efficient way of getting the data?
<% Dim Recordset4__MMColParam1 Recordset4__MMColParam1 = "1" If (Scramble.Fields.Item("GU").Value <> "") Then Recordset4__MMColParam1 = Scramble.Fields.Item("GU").Value End If %>
I am having some problems. I'm pretty new to sql and really dont know how to achieve more than the basic selects etc.,
My problem is that I have a recordset on one page http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals.asp that returns the results of all the images in one category. In this case it's animals and wildlife.
The user can click on any image and go to a page that shows a larger detail version of the image. http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp
What I do is post the ProductID number to this page so that the selected thumb is shown. So for exmaple for the image of the wild cat it is http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp?ProductID=6
My problem is that on the animals-photo-detail.asp the user has to be able to "scroll" through all the images from the category.
I.e should be able to hit the previous image button and see the stallion image, or the next button to see the butterfly etc., and thus scroll through all the images on this age if he/ she wishes to.
I understand the principles of having a results page and then being able to click on one of the results and getting a detail page. Such as I have it here. With the http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals.asp as a results page listing all the results of the category, and then when the user clicks on one of the results, goes to a detail page, for example, http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp?ProductID=6.
My problem is that what I need is the recordset from the listing page to function on the detail page so that the user can scroll through the results in the same order that they were on the results page.
I have searched now for a couple of days online and every tutorial I find shows the same structure. Results Page > Detail Page.
The sql i am using on the detail page is simply,
<% Dim photos_rs__MMColParam photos_rs__MMColParam = "1" If (Request.QueryString("ProductID") <> "") Then photos_rs__MMColParam = Request.QueryString("ProductID") End If %>
So I understand why it will only display the one result since thats the detail page.
Is it possible to be able to scroll through the results using the previous and next buttons as I have setup in the display on the http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp page. For example, http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp=ProductID=6.
Since the resutls are gathered from across the database its not possible to have a href tage that does a <<< http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp=ProductID=(6 -1) or a >>> http://www.photoghetto.com/photo-images/animals-photo-detail.asp=ProductID=(6+1).
I guess it has to be something with a recordset index but does anyone know how to do it? And does anyone have the ability to help me do it?
My boss is kicking my butt now to get this thing online at some point today, and I'm turning to you guys for help if possible.
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. I've really ran out of ideas.

I have some problems to edit a recordset in an ActiveX DTS using Vbscript. Here is an example of the script :
dim varsql, varset, varconn set varconn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") set varset = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") varconn.Open = "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=(local);Initial Catalog=Enregistrement3;user id = 'sa';password=''"
if varset.recordcount >0 then do while varset.eof varset.edit ......................... varset.update varset.movenext loop end if varset.close varconn.close
Does someone see what is wrong ? I allways get -1 for the varset.recordcount ! (I checked there are some records into the table). I don't think it is a problem of user's right as it works with the same user configuration using a SQL action requery. If I modify the open statement like this : varset.Open varsql, varconn, 1 varset.recordcount contains the good number of records but the recordset is read noly and can't be modified...

I'm an SQL novice, but I know this must be a common problem.
I'm trying to select a recordset (using ASP), but I know I only want part of the recordset, and am not sure how to limit it ahead of time.
For example, the query will return about 500 rows, but I know I only want to use a small section of these records. I want to give the user the ability to navigate through small sections of these 500 rows without having to get all rows all the time. I know ahead of time which rows to get, but have no idea how to limit the recordset before I get it (there is no fields in the database to help).
This is what I'm doing now. "select * from xyz where id=xxx order by date desc;" I know I only want the first 10, or 10-20, or 400-410. The way I'm doing it now, I'm getting the whole recordset each time, doing a "rs.move x" where x is where I want to start. This is really a waste of network traffic and memory since my SQL server is on a different machine as the web server running ASP.
How do I do this?
Please email me if you could at pmt@vantagenet.com
i have a select query that returns multiple rows (within a cursor). How do i loop through the rows to process it (in a stored proc)? I donot want to use nested cursors. a code sample is requested.
id | value ========== 1,abc 1,def 1,ghi 2,def 2,jkl
I want these values to go horizontally into another table matched on id, to look like this:
id | value ======== 1,abc def ghi 2, def jkl
I built a cursor to parse through it but was taking forever (there's 185,000 records in the reference table). Any idea's on the fastest way to perform this function?
I was wondering if there is a way to randomise a recordset once you have performed a query. eg I want my query return a set of records based upon criteria supplied and then either randomise the order of the recordset or only return 3 random records - which every is simplest to do.
Can this be done in SQL or do I need to handle it outside of my SQL query in my business logic?
