Convert Data File Type From Unix To Pc Using Stored Procedure?
Jul 14, 2006
Hi, I have a script written in ASP to load data file (.csv) to ms sql. In the script, I have a portion of script looks like taht :
.....
Do While NOT oInFile.AtEndOfStream
oOutFile.WriteLine Replace(oInFile.Readline, chr(13), vbcrlf)
Loop
.....
After that, I will use a BULK INSERT to input data to ms sql.
I am wondering how do I convert each row (data) to vbcrlf in Stored Procedure? Coz' I did not compose the convertion part, and I got no error when running BULK INSERT, but no rows are inserted :( HELP!!!!
I guess it's because the file is not being converted into a correct format??
Hi,This is driving me nuts, I have a table that stores notes regarding anoperation in an IMAGE data type field in MS SQL Server 2000.I can read and write no problem using Access using the StrConv function andI can Update the field correctly in T-SQL using:DECLARE @ptrval varbinary(16)SELECT @ptrval = TEXTPTR(BITS_data)FROM mytable_BINARY WHERE ID = 'RB215'WRITETEXT OPERATION_BINARY.BITS @ptrval 'My notes for this operation'However, I just can not seem to be able to convert back to text theinformation once it is stored using T-SQL.My selects keep returning bin data.How to do this! Thanks for your help.SD
First, let me start by saying I know the answer to this, but due to politics any answer I give will be viewed with some disdain and disbelief.
A Unix/Network [rtdpmin one our sister agencies is trying to solve a problem that really does not need to be solved, but ....
The sister agency uses Information Builder's WebFocus on Unix. When they try to read my data warehouse in SQL Server 2000 it times out on them (on their end and they claim they cannot fix it) (This is using the supplied WebFocus ODBC/JDBC driver for SQL Server). This has lead to accusations of us not letting them read the data.
After much gnashing of teeth over "if you do data and data analysis for a living, why do I have to show you how to set-up an ODBC connection" we have shown them how to connect to the data, read it, and transfer it using MS-ACCESS, EXCEL, and more importantly SPSS. This is not good enough because they cannot figure out how to put it into WebFocus.
Their network person has come-up with the brilliant idea of reading the .mdf directly by installing Windows for Unix on the Unix side and then just pointing to the .mdf file and "reading it ".
Unless I have missed something somwhere (I will admit possible), I know you need a driver to read MS-SQL and that driver in every example I have seen could care less about the physical location of the .mdf file. It wants to know what database, what server (ip or name) and what security/login to use.
Could someone give me a more "technical answer" or even Microsoft's party line so I do not have this person mucking around with my production server trying to acomplish the impossible.
I am using sql server 2008 version and invoking the stored procedure using unix script. I want to know the procedure of killing the stored procedure in sql server.
If I kill -9 the unix script will it also terminate the process at the SQL server. When I executed the kill -9 PID in unix and ran the command exec sp_who2 it showed me only one sessionid and status as runnable - which means waiting for resources. BUt I am not sure whether it was the one which was triggered through unix.
My SP is executing in loop thereby is there any way I can avoid going into infinite loop?
I have a stored procedure a portion of which looks like this:
IF (CAST (@intMyDate AS datetime)) IN ( SELECT DISTINCT SHOW_END_DATE FROM PayPerView PP WHERE PP_Pay_Indicator = 'N' ) BEGIN --ToDo Here END
where: @intMyDate is of type int and is of the form 19991013 SHOW_END_DATE is of type datetime and is of the form 13/10/1999
however when I run the procedure in sql query analyzer as:
EXEC sp_mystoredproc param1, param2
i get the error:
Server: Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Procedure usp_Summary_Incap, Line 106 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
what is the proper way of doing the conversion from int to datetime in stored procedure?
Hi, I pass a paramter of text data type in sql server (which crosspnds Memo data type n Access) to a stored procedure but the problem is that I do not know the crossponding DataTypeEnum to Text data type in SQL Server.
The exact error message that occurs is:
ADODB.Parameters (0x800A0E7C) Parameter object is improperly defined. Inconsistent or incomplete information was provided.
The error occurs in the following code line: .parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter ("@EMedical", advarwchar, adParamInput)
I need to know what to write instead of advarwchar? Thanks in advance
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Procedure sp_CalendarCreate, Line 45 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
Can any one tell me the solution of that problem (at ur earliest)
Hi, Does anyone know how to deal with image data type within stored procedure when using SQL2000? I have a table and there is an image data type column. In this table I need to make a copy of one row within a table through a SP /it means to retrieve the whole row within SP, change another columns data (but, that the image is not modified) / and save the modified row back to the same table. Problem is, that within SP is not alowed to use local varaibles of image data type. Does anyone know a solution for this? Please. Thank you.
I have several stored procedures with parameters that are defined withuser defined data types. The time it takes to run the procedures cantake 10 - 50 seconds depending on the procedure.If I change the parameter data types to the actual data type such asvarchar(10), etc., the stored procedure takes less that a second toreturn records. The user defined types are mostly varchar, but someothers such as int. They are all input type parameters.Any ideas on why the stored procedure would run much faster if notusing user defined types?Using SQL Server 2000.Thanks,DW
How can I make a stored procedure which has a output parameter withtext data type? My procedure is:CREATE PROCEDURE try@outPrm text OutputASselect @outPrm =(select field1 from databaseName Wherefield2='12345')GOHere field1 is text data type.Thanks
How Can I Control the data type for each parameter ?? Or How Can I Change the data type of the parameter for the Deployed Stored Procedure ?? Or How Can I defined the new Data type ??
Or
What's the solution to this problem ??
Note : I get Error when I try to use Alert Statement to change the parameter Data type for the SP
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_AddImage] @ImageID [uniqueidentifier], @ImageFileName nText, @Image Image WITH EXECUTE AS CALLER AS EXTERNAL NAME [DatabaseAndImages].[StoredProcedures].[sp_AddImage] GO
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.
Hi there. I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE') Can anyone out there help?

Why when I run
Code: USE [byrndb] GO DECLARE@return_value int EXEC@return_value = [dbo].[sp_GetLikeJobsByJobNumber] @number = N'23913' SELECT'Return Value' = @return_value GO
Am I getting an "Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Procedure sp_GetLikeJobsByJobNumber, Line 16

I am attempting to create a stored procedure that will launch at report runtime to summarize data in a table into a table that will reflect period data using an array type field. I know how to execute one line but I am not sure how to run the script so that it not only summarizes the data below but also creates and drops the table.

Hi, I'm using the data type "money" in my SQL database and want to convert what's in txtPrice_textBox to the "money" format. I'm currently using the following code: ' objectCym.price = Convert.ToInt16(txtPrice_textBox.Text) ' Will this work? Is there any reason I should stay away from the "Money" data type?
I have the following SqlDataSource in my page:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sqlds" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:cs %>" SelectCommand="SELECT [Quest1], [Quest2], [Quest3], [Quest4], [Quest5] WHERE ([QuestID] = @QuestID)"> <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="QuestID" /> </SelectParameters> In my code I get the following error: "Cannot convert type 'int' to 'System.Data.DataView'", I don't understand why I am getting this error because I am casting my SqlDataSource as type DataView when passing it to my DataView type.Code: protected void Chart(string record) { System.Data.DataView dv = (System.Data.DataView)sqlds.SelectParameters.Add("QuestID", System.TypeCode.Int32, record); //Error line ... ... ...}If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.
