I have created stored procedures and I am checking whether any error has occured on execution of the statements in that procedure.
If the @@Error <>0 then I need to log this error into my error logging table. For this, I need to retrieve the error description given by SQL SERVER 2000.
I tried this using the master.dbo.sysmessages table. But I get a text from master.dbo.sysmessages which has the placeholders like %l, %s, etc.
I dont want this type of error. I want the exact error description which has the actual objects names and not the placeholders.
I found some help at this link : http://www.sommarskog.se/error-handling-I.html#textretrieve
But i want to know whether there is any other way of doing this or not.
Hi, DTS now has a dynamic properties task in sql 2000 which at a first glance is pretty cool. However i do not know if it would sort out a particular issue I have.
I need to have a generic DTS package that pulls data from different locations based on the project selected by a user. The source is a btrieve database The name of the tables change with the project, so for example the F24 project would have its source table named F24TACT and the IFO source would have its source table named IFOTACT.
I need to be able to dynamically retrieve the table name from a local SQL table and assign this name to the data pump for the data extraction..
I don' t know if this is achievable in DTS. I can retrieve the value into a look up variable but how can i set it at runtime ?
I have looked on google and haven't found a query (as of yet) to perform this function.
Essentially I am using VB.NET with Excel and have a mapping between a worksheet and a table in my database. I wrote an import function to pull the data out of excel and put it into SQL Server but I want to try catching errors before i do that.
What is the SQL query to get column sizes from a table. Meaning in a table I have column1 that is allowed a size of int(5). How do i retrieve that information from a query opposed to just looking at it in SQL Server EM??

Hi all, I need to get the error description from the SQL Server in a SP. For ex:
I have one insert statement which is inserting some values in a tabUserMaster table. If user tries to insert any duplicated row then following error is retruned [in Query analyzer].
Server: Msg 2601, Level 14, State 3, Procedure csp_ProvisionUser, Line 70 Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'CoreUser' with unique index 'IDX_CoreUser_UserName'. The statement has been terminated.
I want to trap this whole message in a variable. How to do this..... :(
I am having trouble bringing "description" column in to my sp and them at the out put. in the ppatient_status_mstr there is a column called“description” which has patient status such as “discharged” “termed collection” etc... How do I use the SP to bring this description into application? I am assigning it to @mytext. I am not sure how to declare “description” in the SP? Every time I use it I get errors like:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 20 The multi-part identifier "pm.alerts_ind" could not be bound. Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 40 Invalid column name 'description'. Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 43 Invalid column name 'description'.
I want to say if user picks a description from application . show me that description in output. But I am having trouble how to use the description? I am not sure if my “IF” statements are correct either?
Here is the procedure
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CheckStatus] (@enc_id varchar(36) OUTPUT, @Mytext varchar(50) OUTPUT, @data_ind Char(1) OUTPUT) AS BEGIN DECLARE @alerts_ind char(1)
I have hundreds of tables in my database. Is there a way to get a list of them with a description of their content (the procedure and the transaction they are related to, the way columns are created)?

Okay guys heres the senario.I have written a kick butt asp application that allows me to test sqlstatements and manage/display all my databases from the web but I havea feature I want to include that I can't figure out how. In EnterpriseManager, one of the column editable properties is the ColumnDescription. I can't find it in sql server itself. only in theEnterprise Manager.

Hi All,In SQL Server how can I get the descriptions of tables in adatabase?From MSDN help I could find a way to get the description of columnsusing the following extended propertySELECT *FROM ::fn_listextendedproperty (NULL, 'user', 'dbo', 'table','Reports', 'column', default)ThanksRegardsSobhan
This is a request to the Microsoft SSIS staff. I did a search for the keywords in the description and can already see a lot of people frustrated about this.
A lot of well designed integration packages will route error messages to an error table or file. SSIS appends a couple of extra error columns called ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. At runtime, an extra column is visible in the DataViewer called ErrorCode - Description.
The description is hardcoded into the dtsmsg.h file in the SDK folder of Sql Server. This file is very hard to parse.
Can some from SSIS please post an XML or CSV file with all the error codes and descriptions for us to download please. This will be such a big help in debugging.
HiAll Sql Server errors have a number. Is there any MS or MSDN website or any .net method in which I can see these errors?Thanks a lotswitch (error.Number){case 17:msgErro =....break;case 4060:msgErro = ....break;case 18456:msgErro = .....break;default:msgErro = exSql.Message;break;}
hey guys, so i have my website, everything is ok, until i have to put in a title field, along side my description. so far i have this code which searches in the description, how can i make it so i can search in the title as well SelectCommand="SELECT [Stock_ID], [cat_id], [description], [size], [selling_price], [qty], [picture1] FROM [tbl_stock] WHERE ([description] LIKE '%' + @description + '%')"> Any help would be great Cheers Jez
If you browse to Amazon and drill down through categories until a paged listing appears, you will see in each item of the listing that the description rendered as Book Description, is a cutdown version of the full description, with a ... and "Read More" hyperlink. How is this achieved programatically? I dont know if thre is an efficient way in SQL Server to do this, or whether it would be easier to have a ShortHand field and a Description field, both of which are teh full description when shown in the Details page, but the ShortHand is the field rendered in listings. This seems like a simplistic solution and I am thinking there may be programmatic means of doing the same - has anybody got any experience in this area?
I have a big problem with SQL server2000. I can't get COLUMN DESCRIPTION. I will print DATADICTIONARY from a DB, I can get all elemnts (table name, columns name, datatype, precision, scale, FK, PK, default value..) I missed only DESCRIPTION. How I can get it????
On the Design Table screen for SQL 2000 there is a Description field along with the Default, Identity, etc. options. Once I put a description in there, is there a way to retrieve it through T-SQL?
In oracle there is a describe command: describe table_name This command will tell you the columns names, datatypes, and length of the columns for that particular table. Does anyone know if there is a simliar command in SQL server that would do that? The only way that I have found so far is to do a join of the syscolumns with sysobject by table name.
I'm trying to create a Data Dictionary view from system table info like tablename, fieldname, datatype etc. I can find all that I need except for the "description" field which is displayed in Enterprise Manager/ Repository metadata pane.
How can I locate this field so I can reference it in a view? Isn't it stored in a system table? Master, model? Where is it?
