Proper Case Conversion For Celtic Names
Mar 29, 2008I've used this udf for a while with great success, but only on fields with more than one word....
http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/jeffs/archive/2007/03/09/60131.aspx
I'd like to know how I can adapt this function so it will convert a scottish/irish surname (McDonald or O'Shea) when there is only the surname in the column
This is what I'd been using for multiple words (Ronald McDonald). But it won't work on just Mcdonald. I'm sure it's just a simple tweak, but it all looks Punjabi to me?
Thanks in advance!!

SQL2K SP4 Gives Error 1706 Creating Multi-statement Table-valued Function Names Beginning With Sys?
Nov 2, 2006Hi all,
I've created a number of tables, views, sproc, and functions whose names begin with "sys_", but when I tried to create a multi-statement table-valued function with this type of name, I got:
Server: Msg 1706, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sys_tmp, Line 9
System table 'sys_test' was not created, because ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not enabled.
I had a quick look in this forum for 1706 (and on Google) but couldn't find anything. Does anyone know for certain if this is a bug in SQL2K?
Thanks, Jos

Dynamically Pass Table Names And File Names To IS Package
Mar 1, 2015I am designing a package to export staging tables into a flat file.The names of the tables will be: TableAStaging_YYYYMM and TableBStaging_YYYYMM. As you can see the names of the tables will be changing each month.
The flat files will have similar naming: C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM and C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM.I want to run the package as an sql job in two steps, one for each table.I need to dynamically pass the table names and file names (together with the path) to the IS package.
Integration Services :: Chinese Names Export To CSV - Garbled Names
Aug 11, 2015As part if a recent requirement I have to export Chinese/Singaporean names in a CSV file. The data in the tables is a NVARCHAR(256).
I am using a FlatFile Connection manager where all the present columns from the table are exported as NVARCHARs. My understanding was that the Chinese/Singaporean names would blend seamlessly with NVARCHARs in place. But, they get garbled when pushed to the CSV.
Here is the connection manager setup
There are a lot of suggestions of fixing this by copying/pasting to a notepad file and changing the formatting... But I cant do that since the file is generated using a schedules SSIS package. How can I tweak the process to fix the issue?

DB Mirroring: Different Server Names With Same Instance Names
Jan 31, 2008I'm going to be setting up DB mirroring between two SQL Server 2005 boxes. Since these are on two different servers, can the instance names be the same? Is there any reason NOT to do so if the mirror server is going to be used exclusively for DB mirroring?
For example: if the my primary DB is located on SERVER1INSTANCE1, can the mirror be SERVER2INSTANCE1 or do the instance names have to be different even though they're on different boxes.
Thanks!
SQL And Proper Concatenation Within VB
Jun 9, 2008Hi all - I have posted inquiries on this rather vexing issue before, so I apologize in advance for revisting this. I am trying to create the code to add the parameters for two CheckBoxLists together. One CheckBoxList allows users to choose a group of Customers by Area Code, the other "CBL" allows users to select Customers by a type of Category that these Customers are grouped into. When a user selects Customers via one or the other CBL, I have no problems. If, however, the user wants to get all the Customers from one or more Area Codes who ALSO may or may not be members of one or more Categories; I have had trouble trying to create the proper SQL. What I have so far:Protected Sub btn_CustomerSearchCombined_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_CustomerSearchCombined.Click Dim CSC_SqlString As String = "SELECT Customers.CustomerID, Customers.CustomerName, Customers.CategoryID, Customers.EstHours, Customers.Locality, Category.Category FROM Customers INNER JOIN Category ON Customers.CategoryID = Category.CategoryID WHERE " Dim ACItem As ListItem Dim CATItem As ListItem For Each ACItem In cbl_CustomersearchAREA.Items If ACItem.Selected Then CSC_SqlString &= "Customers.AreaCodeID = '" & ACItem.Value & "' OR " End If Next CSC_SqlString &= "' AND " <-- this is the heart of my problem, I believe For Each CATItem In cbl_CustomersearchCAT.Items If CATItem.Selected Then CSC_SqlString &= "Customers.CategoryID = '" & CATItem.Value & "' OR " End If Next CSC_SqlString = Left(CSC_SqlString, Len(CSC_SqlString) - 4) CSC_SqlString &= "ORDER By Categories.Category" sql_CustomersearchGrid.SelectCommand = CSC_SqlString End SubAny help on this is much appreciated, many thanks --

Server Names Or Instance Names
Aug 3, 2006Hello there. I'm trying to populate a drop down box with a list of all available instances of SQL server (express or not) available on a network. To list all instances I'm using EnumAvailableServers() in SmoApplication.
The issue is that the Instance column in the returned data table is always empty, and both the Name and the Server columns contain the same string -- the name of the computer the SQL server is installed. Locally I have SSE installed, the instance name is <computer_name>SQLEXPRESS, however, using Smo I can't seem to get to the either full instance name or just the instance name. I can't assume SQLEXPRESS, since there may be more than one installed.
Alternately I used EnumRegisteredServers() in SmoApplication.SqlServerRegistrations and that, while returning instance information (can be retrieved from the RegisteredServer in the returned collection), doesn't always return the remote SQL servers in the list.
Any idea how can this be done? Maybe I'm going at it the wrong way, maybe there's another class / method I need to use to retrieve all instances?
Thank you
Going From SQL 7.0 Beta To SQL 7.0 Proper - Problem ...
Jan 14, 1999Greetings, I seem to be getting a problem during installing SQL 7.0 over the SQL 7.0 beta. It tells me that there are ODBC components need to be upgraded and they are read only ... I can find no way of changing this.
Alternatively if I remove the beta and then install the proper version, will all the old db created under the beta still be recognised ?

Proper Place For Sub Select?
Feb 14, 2013I have a very simple query that gets a field to use as constraints in another query.
Code:
SELECT A.RIN
FROM apcType T
INNER JOIN apcAttribute a on A.T = T.RIN
WHERE T.Name like '%Sales'
The results of the first query are used in the following query where it is bolded and marked with and <<<<========
Code:
SELECT AP.Arg2, AP.Arg3, M.Parcel,
M.Serial, M.Name, M.Acres, M.District,
V.YearBuilt, V.Code, V.Size,
(SELECT SUM(V1.Acres)
FROM TRValue V1
WHERE V1.Year = V.Year and V1.Parcel = V.Parcel and
SUBSTRING(V1.Code, 1, 1) = 'L'

My question is How can I fold the first query into the second?
Proper Way Of Linking Tables?
May 2, 2015I am no stranger to Databases, I worked a lot with MySQL but never really cared about proper DB design as long as it worked. Now I am playing with SQL in a ASP.NET project and want to get things done the right way.Let's say I have a Movies database. My movies can have multiple genres so I set my tables up like this:
[Movies]
MovieID
MovieName
MovieRelease
[code]....
Is this the proper way of doing things? The problem with this is when I want to enter a record manually I have to know the ID of the movie and the ID of the Genres of the movie. And what about naming conventions? By default the identifier is always Id, from my MySQL experience I liked naming it like the table, same goes with other columns. This is my T-SQL code for above tables in VS-2013.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Movies] (
[MovieID] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[MovieName] VARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[MovieRelease] NUMERIC (18) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Movies] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([MovieID] ASC)
[code]....
Convert To Proper Date
Apr 16, 2007I read some questions where questioners ask "Sometimes client gives data where dates are expressed as float or integer values.
How do I find maximum date?".
Ex
March 02, 2006 can be expressed as
02032006.0
020306
2032006
20306
020306.0000
2032006
Assuming the values are expressed in dmy format
The possible way is convert that value into proper date so that all types of date related calculations can be done
Create function proper_date (@date_val varchar(25))
returns datetime
as
Begin
Select @date_val=
case when @date_val like '%.0%' then substring(@date_val,1,charindex('.',@date_val)-1)
else @date_val
end
return
cast(
case
when @date_val like '%[a-zA-Z-/]%' then case when ISDATE(@date_val)=1 then @date_val else NULL end
when len(@date_val)=8 then right(@date_val,4)+'-'+substring(@date_val,3,2)+'-'+left(@date_val,2)
when len(@date_val)=7 then right(@date_val,4)+'-'+substring(@date_val,2,2)+'-0'+left(@date_val,1)
when len(@date_val)=6 then
case when right(@date_val,2)<50 then '20'
else '19'
end
+right(@date_val,2)+'-'+substring(@date_val,3,2)+'-'+left(@date_val,2)
when len(@date_val)=5 then
case when right(@date_val,2)<50 then '20'
else '19'
end
+right(@date_val,2)+'-'+substring(@date_val,2,2)+'-0'+left(@date_val,1)
else
case when ISDATE(@date_val)=1 then @date_val else NULL end
end
as datetime
)
End
This function will convert them into proper date
select
dbo.proper_date('02032006.0') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('020306.000') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('02032006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('020306') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('20306') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('020306') as proper_date
Apart from converting integer or float values to date, it will also convert date strings to date
Select
dbo.proper_date('March 2, 2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('2 Mar, 2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('2006 Mar 2') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('2-Mar-2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('3/02/2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('02-03-2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('2006/03/02') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('March 2006') as proper_date,
dbo.proper_date('2 Mar 2006') as proper_date

Transact SQL :: XML Not Using Proper Index?
Aug 26, 2015I have two xml queries that take long: the 1st query takes about 5 minutes (returns 700 rows) and the 2nd query takes about 10 minutes (returns 4 rows). The total rows in the table is about 2 million. There are three secondary indexes: Property, Value and Path in addition to the clustered index on CardID and Primary XML index. Here is the table definition:Â
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Cards]
(
[CardId] [int] NOT NULL,
[Card] [xml] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_dbo_Cards_CardId] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
([CardId] ASC)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
[code]...
Looking at the execution plan, the query uses the Primary XML Index even if I add any of the secondary xml indexes. My question is why does not the optimizer use the Property 2ndary index instead of the Primary XML Index? Microsoft recommends that creating a Property index for Value() method of the xml datatype would work to provide a performance benefit. What would be another alternative to make the query run faster?
Proper Format Of BufferTempStoragePath
Dec 11, 2006Hello, I have one package that seems to have continuous problems with memory. As of right now it loads a little over 1 million records. I tried leveraging the property, BufferTempStoragePath, but I don't seem to have the right path name. What sort of path do you put there? File? Folder? If it is a file, what sort of file should it be... text, dat, xml? If someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
PS: Below are the error messages I am getting:
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: The buffer manager detected that the system was low on virtual memory, but was unable to swap out any buffers. 4 buffers were considered and 4 were locked. Either not enough memory is available to the pipeline because not enough is installed, other processes are using it, or too many buffers are locked.

Proper Use Of Event Notifications
Apr 19, 2006Hi.
I'm developing an app that uses Service Broker queues to allow a customer to create "events" that fire using a timer or a query notification. When these events fire, a message is sent to a Service Broker queue for processing. Because there is much managed code involved in processing these messages, I decided to use the External Activator application and an Event Notification to process these messages. My question is "what is the difference between using the External Activator application to launch another application (which simply RECEIVEs a message from the target queue and processes it) and creating a windows service that simply monitors the target queue (with a WAITFOR = -1 clause) and processes it?"
I guess I'm not sure how using the QUEUE_ACTIVATION Event Notification is really helping me.
Thanks,
Chris
Getting Date Into Proper Format
May 22, 2007Hi,
I have a .csv file that lists date like this: "20070522", no hyphens or spaces. In the file connection manager I have the column defined as string. The database column is a datetime.
When I attempt to load the file to the table, I get this error:
[OLE DB Destination [9]] Error: There was an error with input column "effective date" (155) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (22). The column status returned was: "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
My question is, what do I need to do to this column so that I can load it into the database?

Proper ADO Usage Where Conflicts Will Arise

Some of the pages in the application have long running processes against large tables in the database, lets say that take 2minutes to complete. My problem is how do I utilize ado properly in the rest of my application to display a message to users who may try to access data associated with a table while in the midst of one of its long running processes? For instance I would like to notify the user that "Table X is currently locked, please try again in a few minutes".Do I catch sqlException and examine the .Number property? Any insight is appreciated.

What I need to do is populate a dropdownlist and show the current month first and then work backwards. The data in the dabase goes back 14 months. I created a reference table called MonthOrder that has 3 columns, MonthID, MonthName and MonthAbrv. I did this so I have a way of saying which month belongs where when sorted.

Is there anyway to do this? My Select and Results are below...

My problem is that I cannot create a xsd schema for the xml file output from the "web service task", and because of this I cannot insert the data in the xml file into the Database, because the xsd schema is reqired by the XML Source which I use in my DataFlow task for inserting the data.
Do you have any ideas how to solve this strange problem?
