Hi, I am trying to write a stored proc that would allow word proximity. I would like to define the proximity of the word so that I could ask for a word1 within 10 of word2.
I am wondering if I could get some suggestions on how to go about writing this? Should I put this in a stored proc? Should I just cursor through each row and then cursor through each word after word1?
I hope that this is clear... Thanks in advance.
Not sure if this qualifies as a total SQL problem, but its definatley related. I'm looking for a way to do proximity searches, I have seen them on many websites but I'm unsure how to go about accomplishing what I want done.
For instance user A wants to search for users within 100 miles of his zipcode 90210, how can I accomplish this? There must be a database out there that I compare to or something ? Alternatively I wouldn't mind searching via city instead of postal code.
I'm sure someone here has some experience with this or can point me the right direction. Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks again,

Just learning full-text searching in SQL Server 2005 and have questions about the proximity term "near".
1. How near is near? Measured in characters, words, or whatever?
2. How do you know? Is this documented? Can't find it anywhere.
3. Can it be adjusted? at design time? at runtime?
I have used a program called Sonar which has powerful proximity options that allow the user to specify proximity in terms of words at runtime. Would like to be able to do that but can't find much on "near" in the documentation other than it seems to relative, provides for left and right nearness, and allows for chaining of multiple search terms.
Hello group,Does anyone know how near a word needs to be to another word to beincluded in the results of a CONTAINS search that uses NEAR? Is thissetting adjustable? Is is stored in the registry? INI or config file?I'm using SQL Server 7 SP3.Thanks,Kelly GreerJoin Bytes!replace nospam with yahoo

I'm just wondering does anyone know how to create an sql command that can search word by word?
what i mean is like I have a product with name 'harry potter broom'.
I want an sql command where if i type only 'harry broom' this 'harry potter broom' product will show up.
Does anyone have any idea?
Here's my sql comand: (I'm using asp.net vb script do develop this system)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
query = "select distinct * from product where " & _
"(pname like '%" & keyword & "%' or " & _
"pdesc like '%" & keyword & "%' ) and " & _
"(price >= " & price1 & " and price <= " & price2 & _
") and status <> 'out of stock' order by price asc"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you.
Is there a way to add functions to SQL (other than stored proceedures) to emulate functions in other systems?
I would like to create a FOXPRO type OCCURS function:
Select * FROM Table1 WHERE OCCURS('Y', FLAGS) > 3
If FLAGS is a VARCHAR(7) and equals "YYYYNNN" then OCCURS would return 4 and the row would return. The database that I am
accessing has >165,000,000 rows and >500 columns per row so you see that I need all the speed I can get!
'
' This is a VB function which works.
' Can this be compiled into a DLL and
' somehow made available to SQL?
'
Public Function OCCURS(expr1 As String, expr2 As String) As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim count As Integer
For i = 1 To Len(expr2)
count = count + Abs((Mid(expr2, i, 1) = expr1))
Next
OCCURS = count
End Function
I seem to have a problem extending the log portion of tempdb onto a log device used by another user defined database. Is this a known problem?

I need some help forming a query
I have 3 Tables...
Table1: Users
Fields: UserID Int
Username Varchar(50)
Table2: User_Categories
Fields: User_CatID Int
User_ID Int
Table3: Categories
Fields: CatID Int
Catname Varchar(100)
Now consider Table 3 has the following values
CatID | Catname
1 | cat1
2 | cat2
3 | cat3
4 | cat4
5 | cat5
6 | cat6
7 | cat7
8 | cat8
9 | cat9
Now I need to select users who fall into the categories with CatID 5, 1, 3. Also users can fall into more than one category.
The users should be sorted by the 1st the users who fall under 5, then users who fall under 1 and then the users who fall under 3 and then finally by the userID in the descending order.
SELECT userid, username
FROM Users, User_Categories
WHERE userid=user_catid AND user_catID IN (5, 1, 3)
ORDER BY userid DESC;
How do I extend this to get the above needed result? Any help will be highly appreciated.
Hi,
If anyone can help me extending the following query I'd be really grateful! :)
I have 4 tables, Product, RawProduct, RawProductPriceHistory and RawProductPromotionalHistory. The relationship is a Product can have multiple RawProducts (one for every retailer the product is stocked in), and the PriceHistory and PromotionalHistory tables keep track of when the RawProduct's price changes, and when it comes on or off of promotion.
I have the following SP to return prices for the given Product for the given Date.
I need to extend the SP so that it also returns details from the RawProductPromotionalHistory table if a PromotionalHistory entry occurs for the passed date (@Date). We determine whether a PromotionalHistory exists by whether the passed @Date >= RawProductPromotionalHistory.StartDateTime and @Date <= RawProductPromotionalHistory.EndDateTime. The EndDateTime can also be NULL - indicating an ongoing promotion.
Here is the schema of the RawProductPromotionalHistory table:
http://www.boltfile.com/directdownload/rawproductpromotionalhistory.jpg
And here is the current SP:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetProductPricesForDate]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@Date datetime,
@ProductId uniqueidentifier
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
-- Insert statements for procedure here
SELECT
ph.[DateTime], p.Name AS 'ProductName', ph.UnitPrice, rp.RawProductId, r.LogoFileName AS 'ShopLogoFileName', r.ShopId, r.Name as 'ShopName'
FROM
Shops r
INNER JOIN
RawProducts rp
ON
rp.[ShopId]=r.ShopId
INNER JOIN
Products p
ON
p.[ProductId] = rp.ProductId
INNER JOIN
RawProductPriceHistory ph
ON
ph.[RawProductId] = rp.RawProductId
INNER JOIN
(SELECT RawProductId,MAX([DateTime]) as maxdate
FROM
RawProductPriceHistory
WHERE
[DateTime]<=@Date
GROUP BY
RawProductId
)temp
ON
ph.RawProductId=temp.RawProductId
AND
ph.[DateTime]=temp.maxdate
WHERE
p.ProductId = @ProductId
GROUP BY
ph.[DateTime], p.Name, r.Name, ph.UnitPrice, r.ShopId, rp.RawProductId, r.LogoFileName
ORDER BY
ph.UnitPrice DESC
END
If anyone can help me extend the query I'd be really grateful!
thanks in advance,

Has anyone investigated extending any of the SSIS Container classes?
I have been looking into it because we'd like to add a set of standard logging calls on events, standard startup procedures, etc. on any package that we execute.
I've been looking into the Sequence Container, For-Each, etc. They are all sealed classes. I'm not sure why MS has sealed them.
We're currently thinking of implementing our own version of the Sequence Container -- we'd really like to be able to extend the functionality of a standard container class, but we don't want to have to implement the actual container class itself.
Any insight appreciated.
How can I create a source extension that reads a text file and returns a XML file? I would like to have an xml File as output, because the information is already normalized.
If I extend the class €śPipelineComponent€? I can just define IDTSExternalMetadataColumn90 as output. And I do not want to have columns. I would like to return a xml file
Is it possible to achieve this?
Can anyone provide any direction in extending existing SSIS components with a custom component, if it's possible at all. In some cases there are just slight bits of functionality missing that I think I could add in myself. But, I'm not much of a programmer and need a bit of help in the declaration of the component in my own custom component.
Thanks.
Hi,
I need to write an add-in, that when installed it will add a virtual folder to the project tree (in which I can later add other stuff).
The problem is even more complicated since the project I want to extend is an SSIS project (SQL Server Integration Services), and it doesn't let you customize the project structure even from the project explorer itself (can't add folders).
I appreciate any help on this.
Thanks.

Hi,
I've had requests for a version of my product ViEmu, a VS.NET 2003-VS2005 add-in, which will work within SQL Server 2005 Management Studio. I had a look at the Mgmt Studio, and it seems to be a version of the VS2005 environment customized for the product. There is a registry hive along the line of the one in Visual Studio, but located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsShell.
I looked for any hint online, but it seems largely undocumented.
I tried plugging my software by writing the right 'Packages' and 'AutoloadPackages' keys, and running "SqlWb /setup", which seems to do something. Nothing happened afterwards, anyway, the DLL doesn't seem to be loaded into the process. I tried using the '/log' option, but an error message comes up (which doesn't describe the /setup option either).
Is there a way to load a VS package into SQL Server 2005 Mgmt Studio? Is this a problem with the PLK? Is it unsupported? Has anybody been successful in such a feat? Would it be ok if I hack some way, no matter how obscure? Is this deliberately turned off, as in the Express editions?
Best regards and thanks in advance,

Is there a way to extend the number of rows that will be returned so that Reporting services doesn't display such a large number of pages for the users to page through? It would be easier for them to "wheel mouse" through a long page on the screen.
Anyone out there have any thoughts on how this might be accomplished?
Thanks!

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has extended the standard CDOSYS Mail Stored Procedure (SP) to allow it to send the results of a query as an attachment?
I have set up a SP for CDOSYS Mail as outlined in the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=kb;de;312839&sd=tech
Currently I am using the old SQL Mail (xp_SendMail). But due to the problems with losing the MAPI connection and other limitations, I have been forced to find another solution. Using SQL Mail, I was able to add a query parameter and attach the results of the query to the email. I need to have the same functionality in CDOSYS Mail
Thanks,

When data is imported from our legacy system, the same functions need to be applied to several columns on different tables. I want to build a kind of "Function Library", so that the functions I define can be re-used for columns in several packages.
The "Derived Column" transform seems ideal, if only I could add my list of user-defined functions to it. Basically I want to inherit from it, and add my own list of functions for the users to select.
Is this possible ?
What other approaches could I take to building about 30 re-usable functions?
Is the word "Name" a reserved word in SQL? look at line 10 of my stored procedure. When I use the word "Name"it is highlited in blue by SQL Server?
Note I only list part of the stored proc
1 CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetXMLPeopleNames] 23 (4 @Status nvarchar(3)5)6 AS7 SELECT8 PersonId,9 PersonDescription,10 Name,11 UpdateDate,12 UpdateAppUser13 FROM14 Customer WHERE Customer.PersonDescription=@Status15 ORDER BY
Everything I've read says that custom data flow components are built by inheriting from the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.PipelineComponent class.
But the stock components such as the Derived Column data flow transformation must each be implemented by their own class. So how do I base my custom components on those classes? The documentation for the PipelineComponent class doesn't list any such subclasses.
Hi all,
I work for a financial company where we send out lots of correspondence to clients on a daily and monthly basis. This would typically be something like a financial report, account statements, etc. We've decided to use PDF as the format which these documents must be in when our clients receive them.
Our marketing and sales departments designs the templates of these documents using Microsoft Word. They can save these MS Word documents in the Word XML format (either 2003 or 2007). We want it in XML format, because it is text based, and we can therefore string replace the content to update the template with a client€™s information. In the same token RTF would also do, but the file size when converted to RTF is a problem.
What I am looking for is a way to convert this XML into PDF using something like XSL-FO - i.e. we do not want to use the Word Interopt on our Production Server, firstly it is a little slow and secondly the production server is unmanned and we cannot allow a WinWord.EXE process to not close successfully for some or other reason.
I've tried a number of companies' evaluation software to try and achieve this (converting the WordML to PDF via XSL-FO), but so far no luck.
Does anybody know of a stylesheet out there with which I will be able to achieve this? Or an alternative method of converting MS Word files into PDF without using Word to do it?
Thank you in advance.

Hi there, i need to know how to cut a string to the nearest word. For example, i've got an article and i need to extract just a part of the beginning, i could use LEFT([content], 250) but there is little chance this will cut on a word. Therefore i need to know if there is a function that will cut to the nearest word in T-SQL or i will simply put a summary field in the database. (I prefer to generate the summary on the fly if possible)

Is there a function how I can see how many caracters a word from my sql is?
for example:
if I want the lenght of the word "sql" => 3
if I want the lenght of the word "forum" => 5
Hi,
I was hoping somone could help. I need to count the number of words in a specfic column in a table if i didn't know what the words said.
I can count the number of words using
DECLARE @String VARCHAR(4000)
SET @String = ' words to be counted'
SELECT LEN(@String) - LEN(REPLACE(@String, ' ', '')) + 1
AS Results
but this requires me to know what the words are and not count them from the column.
