[SQLDatasource]Dynamic selection of column

Hey, I have a search form with a selectbox. This selectbox contains the columnnames.
I want when I put a text in a textbox and select a value in the selectbox and click submit that it search database.The Columnnames I put in a session.

If you see I have put in the querystring as columnname @.sescolumn which I have initialised as asp:sessionparameter.
But it gives no results. When I put @.sescolumn between [] like normal columnnames are it doesn't work also.

Can someon put my on the right path?

Damn didn't knew that this was possible. Thanks a lot mate.

Now I have just to convert some columns in where clause to type of string because my session is a string.
Going to find this out

Thanks again

[newbie] SQL-query with SUM() doesnt work. :(

Hi NG,

I have two tables:

TABLE1 (id1 INTEGER NOT NULL, id2 INTEGER NOT NULL, value INTEGER, PRIMARY KEY (id1, id2))

TABLE2 (id1 INTEGER NOT NULL, text CHAR(4), PRIMARY KEY (id1))

And this is the query, that I'm trying to run on this tables:

select TABLE1.id1, TABLE2.text, sum(TABLE.value)
from table1, table2
where TABLE1.id1=TABLE2.id1
group by TABLE1.id1
order by TABLE1.id1 asc

Well - it doesn't work at all! :(
That is the reason?!

Appreciate everyone's help!!!

S.B.well when doing aggregates you must have everything in the select statement that is not being summed in the group by clause.

Example:

select t1.id1, t2.text, sum(t1.value)
from table1 t1, table2 t2
where t1.id1 = t2.id1
group by t1.id1, t2.text
order by t1.id1 asc|||Hello,

select TABLE1.id1, TABLE2.text, sum(TABLE.value)
from table1, table2
where TABLE1.id1=TABLE2.id1
group by TABLE1.id1
order by TABLE1.id1 asc

DROP the TABLE2.text field cause this is not a group field or
use

select TABLE1.id1, TABLE2.text, sum(TABLE.value)
from table1, table2
where TABLE1.id1=TABLE2.id1
group by TABLE1.id1, TABLE2.text
order by TABLE1.id1 asc

Hope that helps ?

"group by TABLE1.id1, TABLE2.text" works perfectly!

[MS Sql] Data type nvarchar

Hi everybody,

I'm using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I'm trying to create a field which contains a text entered by the user. So, it should be able to contain at least 500 characters.

I used the type "nvarchar(MAX)". The problem is that the type contains about 50 characters max!!
I couldn't find out where and how to fix that.
If you have any idea :)

Thanks a lotType over the the MAX with the desired length of 500.|||Hi tmorton
Of course I tried nvarchar(500) (forgot to tell that). But it's not working either.
It sounds like nvarchar(MAX) is the max length type, and limited to about 50...
Thanks for your reply. And if someone has any idea :)|||That's all it takes from the SQL Server end. If you are only managing to store 50 characters in that column, then I would venture a guess that your data is being truncated before it hits the database. What does your code look like that is adding the data to your table?|||I believe that SQL Management Studio truncates text that it displays. Use something else to view/edit the column.|||Hi
It's weird, it's working now. And yet I didn't change anything particular. Maybe a "bug" on SQL Server... weird though. Thanks a lot to you guys :)

[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] In the file specification '...', the Col1 option is invalid.

I'm trying to connect to a tab-delimited text file using the ODBC data access. I set it up using Administrative Tools - Data Sources (ODBC) from the start menu, and clicked the 'Guess' button under Define Format.

The schema it created looks like this:

[cims_output_data.txt]
ColNameHeader=True
Format=TabDelimited
MaxScanRows=0
CharacterSet=OEM
Col1=SIMNAME
Col2=TIMESTAMP
Col3=SIMTYPE
Col4=REGION
Col5=SECTOR
....etc.

It looks OK, but if I go back to Define in Administrative Tools and try to review it, I get a similar error message:

Ini File (or Registry) C:\Program Files\CIMS\schema.ini is corrupt.
Section: cims_output_data.txt, Key: Col1.

Has anyone seen this before? There is nothing on MSDN as far as I could find. I read on another forum that if you replace the label 'Col1' with 'Col' the problem is solved but it still reports that the schema is corrupt when I try to open it in Administrative Tools.

Bill.

Hi Bill,

Could you try specifying the types of your columns in the schema (i.e. Col1=SIMNAME string...)?

I hope this helps,

John Gordon (MSFT)

John

thanks, I tried that. The funny thing is switching the "Col1" label to "Col" really does solve the problem so I am just going with this solution and ignoring the fact that the ODBC configuration editor says the schema is corrupt.

[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] error

Hello,
I am trying to import test file into a SQL Server 2000 database. If I
run the dts package manually I do not receive any errors. However when
I try and attempt to run the same package with dtsrun I receive the
following error.
Error string: [Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] '(unknown)' is not a
valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled
correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file
resides
The path of the file is set correctly in the ODBC connection. Any
insight or assistance would be imprecated.

Hi
Are you running DTSRun from a command prompt?
Why are you using a DSN?
Have you tried creating the package using the Import Wizard?

Hi
If you manually run the command from a command prompt does it work?
If xp_cmdshell is running from a job, then make sure service accounts
have access to the directory/file.

Thanks, If I manually run the command from the command prompt it does
work, however if I try and run using xp_cmdshell I receive the error.
Both SQLAgent and MSSQL services have access to the directory/file|||When you are running it from EM, the package will use your logon to
determine the right and security to access a file but this will not be the
case when running it from a service (xp_cmdshell, DTS_Run or any other
service like SQL-Agent).
Also, if you are not using a UNC pathway but a drive letter (such as C:\);
many of these drive letters will be unknown to system accounts and other
accounts other than your own login. If you have used a driver letter, you
should replace with its full UNC name.

Hi
You don't say what the service accounts are. The LOCALSYSTEM will not
have access to network resources, so it would have to be a domain
account. Try logging in as this account and run the package from the
command prompt.
John|||I am using a domain account that has access to the file. I am using
the [ODBC Text Driver] which does not allow you to use a UNC in the
pathway.

Hi
So logging in as this account, you can run the job/package
sucessfully? Have you used the /L command to log output to a file?

[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] error

Hello,
I am trying to import test file into a SQL Server 2000 database. If I
run the dts package manually I do not receive any errors. However when
I try and attempt to run the same package with dtsrun I receive the
following error.
Error string: [Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] '(unknown)' is not a
valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled
correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file
resides
The path of the file is set correctly in the ODBC connection. Any
insight or assistance would be imprecated.
Thanks

Hi
Are you running DTSRun from a command prompt?
Why are you using a DSN?
Have you tried creating the package using the Import Wizard?

Hi
If you manually run the command from a command prompt does it work?
If xp_cmdshell is running from a job, then make sure service accounts
have access to the directory/file.
John
|||When you are running it from EM, the package will use your logon to
determine the right and security to access a file but this will not be the
case when running it from a service (xp_cmdshell, DTS_Run or any other
service like SQL-Agent).
Also, if you are not using a UNC pathway but a drive letter (such as C:\);
many of these drive letters will be unknown to system accounts and other
accounts other than your own login. If you have used a driver letter, you
should replace with its full UNC name.

[Help] Snapshot replication & Full Text Indexing

Hi
I have setup snapshot replication in one of my sql database. The article
which i publish, has full text index enabled in the subscription db. So when
the initial snap shot is applied, i get a error message saying "cannot drop
index PK_<<table name>> because it enforces full text key. It really drives
me crazy.
Here are my questions
1. In the Artcile properties, page i specify, under the name conflict
section, leave the table un changed. Then why is it that sql server tries
to drop the table and recreate it.(i checked in the sch table, what ever
option i specify, it is adament, it wants to recreate the table).
2. Is there a way, to publish full text indexed tables, without the initial
snapshot failing ?
I am in "Developer in Distress" mode, can anyone help ?
Thank You
Shrinivas
1 & 2) this should work, could you post the schema of this problem table
here?

|||Hi Hilary
I managed to work around this, by dropping the Full Text index before
applying the snap (by specifying sql in the snap shot tab of properties) and
recreating the index after the snap shot is created. I think this is the
possible way for doing this. Thanks for your reply.

[Full Text Search] automatic document classification

Hi every body,
I want to use Full Text Search of SQL Server 2005 to automatically classify
my documents; by classifying I mean to give each document a type considering
the words it contains.
To give a type to a document, I think that one solution is to store the
document in the Database, the proceed the Full Text indexing, and finally
compare the indexed keywords with the words that have to be in each type.
The, I ill result the type that matches the greatest number of words.
Do you think this solution gonna solve my problem ?
Please give me your remarks, and ask me if you need more details.
ThanksThis is a classic way of doing categorization. Basically you create a vector
with a must have term or terms, and then weight the rest using isabout and
order by rand desc. The ones with the highest rank are closest to your
vector.
