Text Data Type From Deleted Table (trigger)
Feb 12, 2003
Hi,
I need to prevent modification/update to a field.
So I created a trigger. To take the data from DELETED table then replace the field data.
However, I have problem with one field which data type is text.
MS SQL always return me this error:
Cannot use text, ntext, or image columns in the 'inserted' and 'deleted' tables.
I use the following code to take the data from deleted table
DECLARE @ptrval varbinary(16)
SELECT @ptrval = TEXTPTR(NOTES )
FROM DELETED
I also tried simple Select statement
Select notes from deleted
What code should I use to take the deleted data
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Hi folks,
Table:
a int,
b int,
c int,
d text
I need to change my AFTER - Trigger from this (example!):
select * into #ins from inserted
to something like
select *(without Text / nText / image -columns) into #ins from inserted.
So I tried to build a string like this: (using INFORMATIONSCHEMES)
select @sql = 'select a,b,c into #ins from inserted'
exec(@sql)
a,b,c are not of Text, nText or Image datatype.
After executing the trigger, I get an error, that inserted is unknown.
Does anyone know how to solve this ?
Thx.

Hi All,
I have the code below on Sql 2k table with the column Descriptivetext defined as
Text Data Type. The table has Path and Page as the PK
I need to set a trigger to update Desciptivetext in other rows with the same path
when a one of them chnages.
Whenever I run the code, no row is updated
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AB] (
[PATH] [varchar] (255) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ,
[PAGE] [varchar] (60) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ,
[DESCRIPTIVETEXT] [text] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
GO
CREATE TRIGGER [Update_Staging_Test] ON [dbo].[AB]
INSTEAD OF UPDATE
AS
Declare @TextPointer as Varbinary (16), @NewTextPointer as Varbinary (16), @Path
varchar(255), @Page as varchar(60), @DescriptiveText as varchar(7000)
If Update(DescriptiveText)
--Get the Path of the record from Inserted
Select @Page = Page, @Path = Path , @DescriptiveText = Cast(DescriptiveText as
Varchar(7000))
from Inserted
UPDATEAB
SETDescriptiveText = Cast (@DescriptiveText as Text)
WHEREPath = @Path

Hi,
I am using following query to get insereted records from a table, which is containing a column, having text datatype.
'SELECT * INTO #TEMP FROM INSERTED'
Then obviously it gives error.
Wat if i want to get all the columns from inserted table excluding the text datatype column, without giving the column names.
Thanks & Regards.
Shabber.

Hi
Column with TEXT datatype is not stored in the same data row any way. I am wondering if there is any performance gain to put it in a seperate table. Thanks

I need to update a large table, about 55 million rows, without filling the transaction log, in the shortest time as possible. The goal is to alter the table and change the data type for Text column from VARCHAR(7900) to NVARCHAR(MAX).
Since I cannot do it with an ALTER TABLE statement (it would fill up the transaction log) I'm thinking to:
- rename column Text in Text_OLD
- add Text column of type NVARCHAR(MAX)
- copy values in batches from Text_OLD to Text
The table is defined like:
create table DATATEXT(
rID INTEGER NOT NULL,
sID INTEGER NOT NULL,
pID INTEGER NOT NULL,
cID INTEGER NOT NULL,
err TINYINT NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
I've thought about a stored procedure doing this but how to copy values in batch from Text_OLD to Text.
The code I would start with (doing just this part) is the following, but maybe there are more efficient ways to do it, or at least there's a better way to select @startSeq in the WHILE loop (avoiding to select a bunch of 100000 sequences and later selecting the max).
declare @startSeq timestamp
declare @lastSeq timestamp
select @lastSeq = MAX(sequence) from [DATATEXT] where [Text] is null
select @startSeq = MIN(Sequence) FROM [DATATEXT] where [Text]is null
BEGIN TRANSACTION T1
WHILE @startSeq < @lastSeq
[Code] ....

I am having a hard time understanding triggers. My goal is to put a trigger on table x where records are UPDATED or DELETED. When this trigger fires I need to take the record ID and put the ID modified record into table y with the date modified. so basically logging the recordid changed with the getDate()
I don't quite understand how to get the rowid of the modified record.

For some reason in Enterprise Manager for SQL Server 2000, I cannotput the following line into a trigger:select * into #deleted from deletedWhen I hit the Apply button I get the following error:Cannot use text, ntext, or image columns in the 'inserted' or'deleted' tablesThis seems like a weird error, since I am not actually doing anythingto the inserted or deleted tables, I am just trying to make a tempcopy.I have another workaround but I am just curious why this happens.Thanks,Rebecca

Dealing with 3rd party app that is somehow deleting records. Was going to put a delete trigger on the table so we can at least be notified of the delete and save the record. Great idea until I found out the table has a text data type for one of the fields which are'nt allowed on the delete or update portion of the trigger. Unfortunately the text data contains what we really need to retain. Tried doing a convert varchar and that would not work.

I have a field that is currently stored as the data type nvarchar(10), and all of the data in this field is in the format mm/dd/yyyy or NULL. I want to convert this field to the smalldatetime data type. Is this possible?
I've tried to use cast in the following way, (rsbirthday is the field name, panelists is the table), but to no avail.
SELECT rsbirthday CAST(rsbirthday AS smalldatetime)
FROM panelists
the error returned is "incorrect syntax near 'rsbirthday'.
I'm rather new to all things SQL, so I only have the vaguest idea of what I'm actually doing.
Thanks for the help!

We have a text field which is being written to from a java app through JDBC-ODBC. But the data seems to be trucated in the DB. How do we store all the data in this field (the text being stored can be quite large) without it being truncated?

Hello all,
started working on a website in ASP that use mssql, i am trying to store large ammount of text, for now its just 10kk letters, the data type is set to text in the mssql db, but when i read it back from the db, i only get 7.7k letters, i know its not an ASP problem cause i print the var holding the content before storing it in the db.
my question is, is there a way to change the text length limit in mssql, or use another data type?
Thanks,
Gilad Darshan
EDIT: forgot its saving the html source with the style and not only the words. fixed to the right amount of letters

The ERP manufacturer used an image data type to store large text data fields. I am trying to move these data types from one database to another database using either Sql Queries or MS Access. I can cast them as an 8000 char varchar to read them directly but have no luck importing into these image data fields.
Access and Crystal are not able to read these fields directly.
Any suggestions? Most information about these fields has to do with loading files but I am just moving data.
Thanks,
Ray

Hi All,
In the SQL Server documentation, it is said that, the text data type will contain upto 2GB size. I assumed it will save upto 2GB. But what happened is, it saves only 255 characters all others were truncated. Is there anything wrong with me? Or the wrong is with the SQL Server?
Thanks,

I'm having a bit of a problem with this data type. It is supposed to be able to store about 2,147,483,647 characters, but when I enter more than about 1,834 characters no more charaters can be stored.
Has anyone experienced this and knows how to allow up to the 2,147,483,647 characters. Is it anything to do with another SQL Server setting or variable that needs to be changed
Thank you in advance for helping on this.

I encounter this particular error.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The data types varchar and text are incompatible in the equal to operator.
Line 21: Dim reader As SqlDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
This is the first time I'm trying out with MS SQL so I'm abit lost. I hope my code is correct and I've did a little search. I did not set "Text" in my database, I use int and varchar. Here's the affected part of my code and the database. Dim password As String = ""
Dim querystring As String = "SELECT Password FROM Member WHERE Username = @username"
'Dim conn as SqlConnection
Using conn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("mainconnect").ConnectionString)
Dim command As New SqlCommand(querystring, conn)
command.Parameters.Add("@username", SqlDbType.Text)
command.Parameters("@username").Value = txtLogin.Text
conn.Open()
Dim reader As SqlDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
While reader.Read()
password = reader("Password").ToString()
End While
reader.Close()
End Using
My database:
User_ID int(4)
Username varchar(50)
Password varchar(255)
Email varchar(50)
Any ideas?

Sorry if this is a dumb question.
I have a SQL Server TEXT Data Type field which stores a long description.
However when I update it from C# (ASP.net) through a textbox, it seems to cut off a part of the data if the number of characters is a big size (+- more than 577 characters).
I pass the data from then textbox to a string, but as soon as I run the Create/Update stored procedure that gets passed the string field, it seems to chop off the string.
What am I doing wrong?
Should one rather use a SQL Server string field for descriptions (+-1000 characters long) or should one use the TEXT field for this purpose?
Which one's performance is better?

I was wondering if someone could clear this up for me...
I have a table that will be used to store information about products that I will be selling on a new website. I would like to store each product in a table which will include a description of around 1000 words. I was deliberating over whether to store this chunk of text in a column with the data type set as 'text', or to store the text in a seperate txt file on the server. The search facility on the site will not be required to query this text so which would offer the best in terms of performance?

Hi,I have a problem on an old app. This application is a Help Desk, any Computer related problem (Motherboard Burn Out, Software Crash, dll) on my company will be recorded using this Help Desk application.One month ago, some programmer found a bug in this program lead to many duplicate data on database. But too late, This program has entered production stage and used for more than 2 years. This bug only happen at some condition so I found out after 2 years running (when my boss reported there are some duplicate data on "helpDesk" table).The bug is solved but helpDesk table need some "cleaning" operation. Here is structure of that table :helpDesk Table- id (primary key, integer auto increment)- reported_by (varchar 200)- problem_title (varchar 200)- problem_description (text)- date_summited (datetime)well usualy if I want to find some duplicate data I wil type :SELECT MAX(uid) AS uid, reported_by, problem_title, COUNT(uid) AS total_duplicateFROM problemsGROUP BY problem_title, problem_description,uidHAVING (COUNT(uid) > 1)But that query will not work because problem_description data type is "text" which not support "group by" statement.Any other Idea how to locate and cleaning up this duplicate data?thanks

Hello,
I would like to know as to what data type is the best if I want to store MP3's and large amount of text in a SQL server.
Please let me know about the data type for both the tasks.
The table for MP3 is different than the table for large text (eg . saving somebody's resume)
Please do let me know.
Thank you,
John

I am using a 'text' data type in a table and am having trouble adding data to it. I'm using an MS Access ADP project front end for my forms. I want to copy and paste from a text editor such as NotePad to a 'text' data type field in a form. There appears to be a limit that the field will accept which is much below the 2GB size that is allowed for the field. I get the following error message: "The text is too long to be edited." Once I get this error I can add characters from the keyboard but eventually the field will not accept any more characters. Typing or pasting does nothing. I can delete. So I've hit a limit but I'm not sure if it is in Access or SQL Server.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have a table named 'Documents' with a field named 'DocumentData' which is of the datatype Text.
I am using the following statements in a stored procedure which on execution gives errors:
DECLARE @DocData VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @OrderID INT
IF ISNULL(@DocData, '') <> ''
BEGIN
IF EXISTS( SELECT DocumentData from Documents where OrderID=@OrderID and DocumentData = @DocData)
RaisError ('Document ignored.', 16, 1)
The errors that i am getting are the following :
Msg 279, Level 16, State 3, Procedure SPDocs_LoadData, Line 41
The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression.
Msg 306, Level 16, State 1, Procedure SPDocs_LoadData, Line 41
The text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted, except when using IS NULL or LIKE operator.
Can anyone tell me how to rectify this? Basically i am trying to find out whether @DocData passed in the stored procedure matches the value in the table.
Thanks.

I have a table that has a primary key that is auto incremented by 1. This table's data is cleared out periodically and as data gets added the auto id primary key continues to increase in numeric value. Once the data is cleared from the table the auto id names could be used again(the eventId is not stored) Currently the eventID is at 26,581,399. I know the maximum int value is 2,147,483,647.
How should I handle this? or rebuild the table every time the data is cleared(problematically)?
