Cannot Use The Special Principle 'sa'

Jan 9, 2008

Ok, here's my issue... SQL 2005.

I have about 12 different databases, which about 4 of them are have no user mapped to it. Under the SA login, databases are mapped to the "dbo". The 4 I am having issues with have no user mapped. They are blank.

Here is where I am at... Security>Logins>sa>Login Properties>User Mapping

The columns are "Map", "Database", "User", and "Default Schema"

Here is an example of the correct Selection
Map=checked, Database=eDistribution, User=dbo, Default Schema=dbo


Now here is an example of a problem database
Map=unchecked, Database=FORMS, User=blank, Default Schema=blank

Here is the error when trying to add the "dbo" as a user

Any ideas?

Mirror Busy Makes Principle Slower?

Jun 6, 2008

Hi everyone,

A relatively simple question but I have no been able to find an answer.

We have a SQL Server mirror Active/passive with High availability. So the usual Witness with failover.

However, we are using the Mirror server for reporting and letting the users query without limit. We sometimes have problems (slowness) with the Principle server and I'm wondering the following.

If the mirror server in high availability mode is maxed out will this affect the principle server because it takes longer to commit the data on both servers?

It seems obvious but I would like a clear response.

Thanks.

A Special Thank You

Nov 17, 2004

I want to thank Brett Kaiser and Pat Phelan for advising me to get the "The Guru's Guide to Transcact-SQL" HOLY MOLY what an awesome book and the software that comes with it is so awesome "Sequin". This book is better then any of the Microsoft books, it breaks it all down for you and doesnt make it too difficult to understand I stayed up late last night reading this book. (which is why I'm exhausted today). This is by far the best Transact-SQL book I have ever come across.

THANKS GUYS :):):)

Special Characters

Apr 2, 2008

Our SQL 2005 databases have "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"
collation settings on the server. One of tables has one column declared as "ntext".
When we try to insert "‚¬" character directly trough insert statement and retrieve it, we're getting right results. When we use web-services to insert data with this character (euro), and retrieving the data back, we're not getting this sign back. We are getting some characters like little squares. If I try to copy and paste them into notepad, I am getting ???
However, when I tried to place them here, I got them right:

‚¬ Å Å¡ Ž ž Å’ Å“ Ÿ

How can we assure visually they are inserted properly?

Denormalizing With A Special Need

Sep 2, 2007

I have the following:

Demograph Table (PK MemberID)
-MemberID
-FirstName
-LastName

InsuranceSegments Table (PK = all columns combined)
-MemberID
-ProgramCode
-StatusCode
-BeginDate
-EndDate


I need to get the data into this table (i'll call the table MyTest)
-MemberID
-FirstName
-LastName
-BeginDate
-EndDate
-ProgramCode
-StatusCode

The catch:
For each record in the demograph table I need only one segment and that segment is to be based on the greatest EndDate.

What I need:
Give me the last segment for each demograph record and put each into it table MyTest

In my pseodo thinking
INSERT INTO MyTest (MemberID, FirstName, LastName, BeginDate, EndDate, ProgramCode, StatusCode)
SELECT
Demograph.MemberID, Demograph.FirstName, Demograph.LastName,
InsuranceSegments.BeginDate, InsuranceSegments.EndDate, InsuranceSegments.ProgramCode, InsuranceSegments.StatusCode
FROM
Demograph
INNER JOIN
InsuranceSegments
ON
Demograph.MemberID = InsuranceSegments.MemberID
WHERE { Need help :-) }
Need help with the where clause to get the segment with the 'highest/latest' EndDate


Sorry for the wall of text. I hope this is enough information to receive help and would like to thank you in advance for your time :-)

Special Count

Feb 7, 2008

Hi everybody,

I need to write a special count on my table and I don't have idea how to do it.

I have an Audit table like that:

EventTime (DateTimeColumn) - Description (varchar) - UserID
----------------------------------------------------------------

2008-01-28 08:47:19 blabla User 12008-01-28 08:49:04 blabla User 1
2008-01-28 08:51:52 blabla User 2
2008-01-28 08:56:38 blabla User 3
2008-01-28 11:20:03 blabla User 2
2008-01-28 11:59:57 blabla User 32008-01-28 12:00:07 blabla User 32008-01-28 12:00:16 blabla User 32008-01-28 14:52:31 blabla User 32008-01-28 14:52:34 blabla User 4
2008-01-28 15:15:43 blabla User 4

I need to count the number of record for each user (on the datetime) BUT if there are x records in the same minute, I want to count it only one time.

Exemple: the user 1 and the user 3

For the user 1, the result should be 1 because there are 2 records for him, but 2 in the same minute.
For the user 3, the result should be 3 because there are 4 records for him, but 3 in the same minute.

I have any idea about the way to do it.
Your council are welcom ;o)

Thanks in advance

BCP Issue-Special Characters

Jul 6, 2000

Iam working on sql server 7.0.

I have to bring in data from a text file into the sql server database. I use the BCP utility in pulling the data.

The flat file data contains special characters like ®. This is the registered trade mark symbol. When I bcp the file using the character mode the special characters are automatically changed to «. So If I am going to pull a data like ACRYLON®, after the BCP I get it as ACRYLON«.

Inorder to replace all these I have written a program but since it has to scan every record the time taken is more. Will in be possible to accomodate iun the BCP to pull the data with special characters.

If you have an answer to this please reply soon.

Thanks,

Special Characters - Search In DB

Mar 6, 2001

Hi !

I have an DB in SQL Server 7, and in Portuguese we have special characters like "á","õ",etc. And I want to let the visitor to a site to do a search (written in ASP), and not to need to write the correct way (without the accents). But either he writes or not in the correct way, the results are the same, not necessarly in the same order. Is there a SQL Server mechanism that permits this functionality, without doing a very complicated SELECT (takes a lot of time) or replicating a field in the DB (takes a lot of extra space)...

Thanks !

German Special Characters

Apr 13, 2003

I have a problem inserting German special chracters into a MSSql table.

üöäÖ works fine, but ßÜÄ are reduced to "_". I'm using a html form and a php script to enter the data into the database. Any idea why this isn't working? Funny thing is, when I use a german version of the SQL Server it also works without a problem... but I need this to work on ANY mssql server. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Special Character;strange

Oct 6, 2004

I had to update pricelist at local-db on the basis of prices in another SQL by matching the description. When i JOIN the tables, no record gets displayed, but the descrptions at both tables were exactly the same i believed. Took a lot of time in identifying the discrepancy; the data was like this:

CREATE TABLE #ABC (price money, DESCRIPTION VARCHAR(200))
GO
INSERT #ABC SELECT 19999,'SQL2000
'
GO
SELECT * FROM #ABC WHERE DESCRIPTION ='SQL2000'
--(0 row(s) affected)
SELECT * FROM #ABC WHERE LTRIM(RTRIM(DESCRIPTION))='SQL2000'
--(0 row(s) affected)
select * from #ABC WHERE REPLACE(DESCRIPTION,'
','')='SQL2000'
--(1 row(s) affected)
GO
DROP TABLE #ABC
:rolleyes: I believe, ENTER has some value within a field.

Treatment Of Special Characters

Jul 20, 2005

Hi,This is a generic question, but for arguement's sake, let's say, myenvironment is SQL Server 2000.It seems that setting quoted_identifier off is the best way toaccomodate all sort of data input/update especially for data set thatcontains special characters like single quote as in O'Brien, otherfunky stuff like %^$*@#(!).However, this option won't help with a situation like data value of5'9",and let's say, we really can't predicate if this type of value will beused for ColA or ColB or ColC ...Examplecreate table #tmp (col1 varchar(30));set quoted_identifier off;insert into #tmp values("O'Brien's barking dog'");-- successinsert into #tmp values("O'book has funky (%^$*7) stuff");-- successinsert into #tmp values("John said "funky is OK" in his speech");-- failedGlobaly search and replace the double quotes before insert/update isjust too "expensive", not a good option.Now, if we can set a custom quoted_identifier, we can solve the aboveproblem easily, for instance,if MS SQL Server permits/acceptsset quoted_identier = '//$$';theninsert into #tmp values(//$$John said "funky is OK" in hisspeech//$$);(or the like)would succeedAny other thoughts/ideas? Thanks.Quote "Never stop thinking even though at times it may produce waste,which we all do, btw :) "
