Hi, i'm trying to do a full text search on my site to add a weighting score to my results. I have the following database structure: Documents: - DocumentID (int, PK) - Title (varchar) - Content (text) - CategoryID (int, FK) Categories: - CategoryID (int, PK) - CategoryName (varchar) I need to create a full text index which searches the Title, Content and CategoryName fields. I figured since i needed to search the CategoryName field i would create an indexed view. I tried to execute the following query: CREATE VIEW vw_DocumentsWITH SCHEMABINDING ASSELECT dbo.Documents.DocumentID, dbo.Documents.Title, dbo.Documents.[Content], dbo.Documents.CategoryID, dbo.Categories.CategoryNameFROM dbo.Categories INNER JOIN dbo.Documents ON dbo.Categories.CategoryID = dbo.Documents.CategoryID GOCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX vw_DocumentsIndexON vw_Documents(DocumentID) But this gave me the error: Cannot create index on view 'dbname.dbo.vw_Documents'. It contains text, ntext, image or xml columns. I tried converting the Content to a varchar(max) within my view but it still didn't like. Appreciate if someone can tell me how this can be done as surely what i'm trying to do is not ground breaking.
I Apologize if this isn't the forum to ask this... I have a MS Access (MDB) file with a table with 2 date fields, i want to read from a dialog on my app (on MS Visual .NET Studio 2005), here's the code I've been using do far:
FechaC, FechaCob, are the two Dates I want to retrieve, but when I debug, it reads a 0 (zero) from the date fields, is there a limitation? can they be read? is there a special way to read them? > thanks in advance!
I have followed many tutorials on selecting and replacing text in text fields, varchar fields and char fields, but I have yet to find a single script that will to all 3 based on field type. Let's assume for a moment that I don't know where all in my database a certain value that I need changed resides ... i.e., the data's tablename and fieldname. How would I go about doing the following ... or more importantly, is this even possible in a SQL only procedure?1) Loop over entire database and get all user tables2) Loop over all user tables and get all fields3) Loop over all fields and determine the field type4) switch between field types and change a string of text from 'a' to 'b'Please be gentle, I'm a procedure newb.
I need to retrieve the pts from table #test1 based on the fields when mapped..
Name & Type columns should match ..Based on the data below the output should be
id NameTypeCode CityIType BPS 1EGFN432 HY F2 10 2 EG FN 432 ON F1 20 3 EG FN 433 On F1 30
It has order of priority to get points
1.When all of the field matches then get the respective pts . 2.When name and Type matched and rest fields doesnt match but is null in #test2 table then retrieve those pts
--drop table #test --drop table #test1 Create table #test ( id int identity(1,1) not null, Name varchar(100) NULL,
I have a data table in my project that has a "text" (not varchar) field in it. I am trying to load this field with little paragraphs of text for showing on my pages. How do I get the free text loaded into the table? The database explorer and all the data grid controls cut the text off at one line. There doesn't seem to be any way to get multiline text into this table.
Hello AllI am having a small problem retrieving data from our main Sql Server. The data is coming from a 'text' column in the database. When I pull this data from our testing server and present it on a page, everything is fine. When I pull the same data from the main server, the text is distorted. It seems that the text is that which is enclosed with quotation marks. I assume this has something to do with the db settings. Does anyone know how fix this I'll try to post an example below.Main Server:We use the Russell 3000 Index as our primary benchmark. The Russell 3000 Value Index is sometimes used; however, since we are a “relative valueâ€Â� manager, we sometimes hold “bustedâ€Â� growth stocks that won’t be included in the Russell 3000 Value Index. Furthermore, we are indifferent as to which benchmark a client wishes to use for performance measurement purposes. We have clients that benchmark us against the Russell 3000, the Russell 3000 Value and the S&P 500 index.Testing Server: We use the Russell 3000 Index as our primary benchmark.

basically i am trying to create a program wherein after saving a new transaction to the sql database, the fields saved will be retrieved and then written to a text file.
i read a thread here which is similar to what i am trying to do but it was in xml format..
Hi, To be more clear. My problem is : 1) I launched the stataments behing via sql server studio : Use AutClust GO SET NOCOUNT ON; Set statistics IO ON GO select * FROM table_1; Go Set statistics IO OFF GO
2) I have then obtained in tab message the result displayed in text format in tab messages : Table 'table_1'. Scan count 1, logical reads 490, physical reads 0, read-ahead reads 0, lob logical reads 0, lob physical reads 0, lob read-ahead reads 0.
The objective is to implement those statements in a stored procedure that will be able to recover in automatic manner the content of tab messages. This text is a system response connected to the statements above. I think that exist a system variable which contain the result displayed in tab messages.
I tried tu use @@rowcount it deos not work because this system variable return number of row affacted by last statement.
Does it exist another system variable that could contain the text which is in tab messages?
I do need a solution for this problem. Please bring me your help.
Hi, I execute a query via queries editor embedded in sql srver studio.then i have query result in results tab and a text message in tab messages. Does it exist a T-SQL sys global variable as of i could to retrieve the text message that is displayed in tab messages?

The error message that comes while I preview the source data:
Error:
"The Preview sample contains embedded text qualifiers. The flat file parser doesnot support embedding text qualifiers in data. Parsing columns that contain data with text qualifiers will fail at runtime"
Is there any alternative to remove these text qualifiers from the file. Do we have any utility that can convert these files into text qualifier free CSV file?
Can someone please tell me how to retrieve/query the list of fields from an entity of a report data model that has been published on the reporting server programmatically ?
I am trying to upload a report data model to the reporting server and planning to use that model as the data source and consume it through our existing web application?
using SQL 6.5 sp_makewebtask in a stored procedure I want to create a press-info file. My query calls four fields, a datum field, two varchar fields and a text field, it's the field "PrText" in my example:
EXEC sp_makewebtask @outputfile='F:EntwicklungRedaktionZeitwenden27.ht m', @query='SELECT Datum, Ort, Headline, PrText FROM news WHERE ID = 27', @templatefile='F:EntwicklungRedaktionZeitwendenTem plates.htm'
My question: Am I limited to 255 characters in this case? After 255 characters the text is cut off and I have only a truncated text fragment.
Is there a possibility to get the whole text without using @blobfmt (I don't want to use this parameter because I want to have the datum data, the varchar headline AND the text in ONE HTML-file.)
I have tried the same as dynamic query in ASP where I have no problem to get the whole content of the text field, but I want to create a static file because this information will be read often, but won't be updated frequently and I don't want to charge the server resources to much.
Has anybody an idea? Any help would be appreciated.
The Text datatype can hold several million characters The size of a record can be no more than 8 KB in normal data.
Created a table with one text field. For some reason can only store 1K of data into it. Even if the 8K limit was a factor (which it shouldn't for a text field) I cannot add more than 1K of data into my text field. 1023 characters to be exact.
Why is SQL Server 2000 doing this and more importantly how to resolve?
Hi, I'm sure that this is probably a really easy question to most of you, but I seem to be spending ages on it as I am new to SQL. how do I add the carraige return char between joining two text fields ie.
New to using MS SQL server! I have a requirements DB. Before I came on board, the DB was seeded with requirements text and a requirements ID in separate columns. I've been asked to append the ID in front of the text:
Text - The user shall be able.... ID - 1.01.01. Combined - 1.01.01.The user shall be able....
I've created the following query that displays the columns:
CREATE VIEW dbo.ReqID AS SELECT RQREQUIREMENTS.ID, RQREQUIREMENTS.REQUIREMENTNAME, RQUSERDEFINEDFIELDVALUES.FIELDVALUE
FROM RQREQUIREMENTS LEFT OUTER JOIN RQUSERDEFINEDFIELDVALUES ON RQREQUIREMENTS.ID = RQUSERDEFINEDFIELDVALUES.REQUIREMENTID
WHERE (RQUSERDEFINEDFIELDVALUES.FIELDID = 171)
The Text field is REQUIREMENTNAME The ReqId is FIELDVALUE
Should I create an UPDATE query based on this SELECT, updating the REQUIREMENTNAME column with FIELDVALUE + REQUIREMENTNAME?
I've just gotten my data into SQL Server, and changed the connection stringon the program.There was a memo field (Access 2000) and we put that in a text field (with adefault length of 16?).Now, when displaying the data online (through asp pages), there are bigwhite-space gaps in the pages (that display the memo field data), imageshave a "double" url(http://www.mysite.com/thisfolder/ht...thelinksite.com)there are lots of place with " ".The field data has html tags in it, if that has anything to do with it.It seems like I've heard that there are issues with text fields. Is thiswhat they meant? Is there anything I can do?Thanks, JA
I am trying to update text fields where the field only has the value"closed." So a field that has closed and anything else will not beupdated.update dbo.Histset dbo.Hist.Notes = ''FROM dbo.HistWHERE (Notes LIKE 'closed_')update dbo.Histset dbo.Hist.Notes = ''FROM dbo.HistWHERE (Notes LIKE 'closed%') and len(convert(varchar(7000),notes)) = 7Neither code works and i get this error: "Subquery returned more than1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <=, >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.The statement has been terminated."What's another way to make the update?
I am trying to get at some text fields from an AS400(JBA) system. the problem i'm having is that for each new line of text on AS400 it creates a new row with a line number associated in the SQL table. When trying to export to excel this causes problems because i need the text in one cell not spread over 15/20 lines.
I need to create a query/function that will concatenate the text lines together. I'm fairly new to T-SQL so could do with some help.
Example:- ID TxtLn Text
R262965 1 Text 1
R262965 2 Text 2
R262965 3 Text 3
What i'm aiming for is:- ID ConcatText R262965 Text1 Text2 Text3
Can anyone please help me or guide me towards a starting point.
Hi, I am saving a couple of paragraphs of text into a varchar(max) field in a SQL database table. But when I try to use display the information again, then all the linefeed and return characters seem to be removed. How do I keep this text formating in the database field? I am sure that I am missing something simple here, but I can not figure out what. Can someone please help with some advise? Thanks RegardsJan
I have three user tables (identical structure) that holds customer information. Each has about 1200 records, give or take a dozen, 99% of which are identical. However, there are a few records in each table that differ. Im trying to select the differences in these tables using a query.Each customer has a custmer ID, but cust_id 1234 in table a may not be the same customer as cust_id 1234 in table b. Therefore, i am trying to compare using the cuLoginName field which is the username/email address text field. This is what differentiates the records. I have tried using select cust_id, cuLoginNamefrom tblCustomerAwhere NOT exists (select cuLoginName from tblCustomerB) to get the different records between the two tables (i.e. those in A but not in B), but even though there are two users in A that do not appear in B, the results are coming back with nothing. I am guessing this is a problem comparing on text fields? What is an effective way around this problem? Thanks
in SQL 7, can i set up a constraint or rule where a data entered in [field 1, table a, database 1] has to exist in [field 3, table a, database 2]? i know i can't set up a relationship, and i haven't been able to get a constraint or rule to work either. if i can't do the above, what is the recomended way to do this? i don't want to, nor should i have to duplicate the table. also, when importing data from one sql server to another, any field that was a data type of text came across as null? any help would be great
I'm trying to transfer a table from SQL Server 7 database to another SQL server 7 database on another server. This table has a text field with lots of data (~.5-1 G). I'm using the export wizard and the transfer appears to complete successfully, but when I view it, the text field data has been truncated.
I have been trying to write a query that will allow me to search through text fields. This is a problem because SQL doesn't let me use any functions on TEXT datatypes.
When I was using access I did it like this:
where upper(searchtext) like ('%SEARCHSTRING%')
However UPPER doesn't work on text fields (I want the search to be case insensitive)
I tried this: where patindex(searchtext, '%SEARCHSTRING%') <> 0
but that is not case-insensitive... Help me SQL gurus, you are my only hope
CREATE TABLE saved_query ( id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, query_text VARCHAR(2048) NOT NULL )
CREATE TABLE saved_query ( id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, query_text VARCHAR(2048) NOT NULL)
and whenever I insert or update the query_text field, it's always truncated to 255 characters. Why? I clearly specified a larger field size. I also tried defining query_text as a "TEXT" but got the same result.
I'm using a view where I do a few things, including merge two short text fields into one. Just wanted to know if there was an alternative way of doing this:
Example: SELECT first_name + ' ' + last_name AS full_name FROM names
It works - but it seems rather blah. Is there something that'd be more "proper"?
I hope someone has already done this, but I have a table with a text column- example ColA, now i want to run a query to select the ColA in this table and combine the results of ColA into a ColB in another table.
Something like - Note: the codes below doesn't work!!
DECLARE @ResultID as int DECLARE @AccID int DECLARE _rows CURSOR FOR SELECT AccID FROM tableA
FETCH NEXT FROM _rows INTO @AccID
WHILE (@@fetch_status <> -1) BEGIN
UPDATE TableB SET Report = Report + (SELECT txtField FROM tableA WHERE AccID = @AccID)
