I think you need to change
SELECT tt.col, Count(isnull(tt.col, 'NULL'))
to
SELECT isnull(tt.col, 'NULL'), Count(tt.col)
and the group by needs the isnull check also.

Hi,
managed to forgot how to figure out blob size in oracle 8.
In oracle 9 and after it's simple:
xyz blob column;
abc table;
select length(xyz) from abc;
But in oracle 8, length doesn't accept blobs.
I have vague memory it involved "lob describe" somehow or maybe vsize???
Thanks!

Run this procedure in Query Analyser

Hi all,
I have VS 2005 Professional, which comes with SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I'm in a crossroad thinking whether to install it or not.
Does ASP.net application requires SQL Server installed? Not that I'm developing asp.net, but I may need to in the future. I mainly do offline apps (Win32 /w C++).
Thanks.

It's not madatory that u only need Sql server
U many use Oracle .But any one database is must to store data in the back end
Sqlserver is the preferable one

Hey,
Thanks for your reply. What I wanted to know is, do I really need to install SQL Server? I don't develop server-side apps, I mainly do client-side apps using Win32 /w C++.

SQL server is a powerful and robust data store. It is not required for development. ASP.Net apps can use any data store or none at all depending upon the application (just like Forms based apps).
Note: If you want to make a career in software development - learn to use a SQL database.

The SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition I'm going to install on my workstation is only for testing purpose, correct? When actually deploying the apps on a server machine, another copy of SQL Server 2005 should be installed there? Right?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes.
Note: My production enviroment has the SQL Server and IIS on seperate boxes. This gives more RAM room for each application.

Wait a minute, so you're saying that the SQL Server and IIS don't need to be installed on my workstation machine? They could be on a remote server computer?

Yes, SQL Server can be anywhere on the network you want. You can even expose one directly to the Internet and access it from across the globe on the public internet (not recommended).
If you intend to develop ASP.Net applications, VS runs some kind of IIS based system when you are testing on the local box. This is a requirement unless you want to make your development really difficult.
SQL, on the other hand, is no more difficult to handle remotely as it is locally. The only thing that changes is the connection string. See http://www.connectionstrings.com/[^]

If u are not storing naything inside database and using specifically client side applications then u don't really need to install it
U may have some other options for storage
