HE DID!!

He gave you this:
SELECT * FROM <TABLENAME> WHERE USER = 'JOHN' AND PASS = 'MYPASS'

But since you've told us nothing about your database structure it may not be correct.

If you want more help you'll have to help us understand your problem. Repeating the same statements over and over again do not help. You need to give us more information.

please gimme the query

What other answer could you expect from that?!

You mentioned nothing about login pages or redirecting users. How were we supposed to know, especially since you posted this in the "SQL" forum?

If you've got the data and youre question is about ASP.NET post in the appropriate forum.

SELECT * FROM <tablename> WHERE USER = 'JOHN' AND PASS = 'MYPASS'

this is the write query...
now if u r using c# or vb.net
get result of this query in datareader and dataadaptor..

if any row returns that means username and password is correct... then redirect to the other page..

They Already gave u the right Query..if u're try to implement that query in your
apps just change the where value, ex :

<br />
Select * From [my_table] WHERE username = '" +UserText.Text+ "' AND password = '" +PasswdText.Text+ "'<br />

wat else do u need they gave u the right query u need Big Grin | :-D

Hi all,

I would like to know whether one uses the to_date function in a update statement aswell, as one would in a insert statement (when making use of a Oracle Database).

Many Thanks

I make use of the 'to_date' function everywhere. Smile | :)

Whether it's a 'select', 'insert', 'update' or even a 'delete' statement, you can use a function call just about anywhere.

Do you have a specific instance that is giving you an error or problem?

DateTime syntax help

Hello guys..
Looks like I just need a litle help on my SQL syntax in C#.NET
I have a field in my database which is DateTime type. Looks like I can't get the syntax right for comparing the value from the textBox with the field in database.
Now what I have looks like:

<br />
DateTime ShDate = DateTime.Parse(txtDate.Text);<br />
cmd1.CommandText = "SELECT ShipedDate FROM Details WHERE Details.ShipedDate = #ShDate#";<br />

When I fill dataset with the adapter which has this SelectCommand it will report error in date in the syntax expresion. Now the variable ShDate has a DateTime type in C# and it stores a date from the textbox with a help of conversion and it is in a correct format(I cheked while debuging).
I think the problem is somewhere here = #ShDate#. I bet I am missing some quotation marks ("") or single quote('').
So does any one have a clue?
Thanks..

Hi,

I think you are just now migrating from MS-Acccess.
When comparing date in SQL Server no need of "#".
Just simply " = ShDate " is enough.

Can you try this out...

DateTime ShDate = DateTime.Parse(txtDate.Text);
cmd1.CommandText = 'SELECT ShipedDate FROM Details WHERE Details.ShipedDate =%' + ShDate + '%';

See if it helps.
Thanks!

Apologies, ignore my previous post..

Try this
DateTime ShDate = DateTime.Parse(txtDate.Text);
cmd1.CommandText = 'SELECT ShipedDate FROM Details WHERE Details.ShipedDate like' + '''' + '%' + ShDate + '%' + '''';

I tried it on my sql box and it worked.

Hope this helps

Thanks!

Database Question

20-Aug-07 3:48

I'm looking to develop an application that will require a small database table structure (not more then 4-5 tables). I wanted to make the database internal to the application so that there wouldn't have to be a link out to a web server/SQL server anywhere, but with just receiving a new datafile to replace the old one, it would be able to pick it up. Is there any code/project type in Visual Studio that would allow me to create such a database that could be deployed with the application and be able to be queried with a SQL/Oracle type interface/query? I am open to writing the application in either Visual Basic or Visual C++.

If I am understanding you correctly, you can not do this. That is the purpose of the foreign key constaint. It will not allow you to delete the data without dropping the relationship between the tables. The only other options is to delete data from all the tables in the correct sequence.

Hope that helps.

It depends on how your tables are related. Let's say you had:
ParentTable1
ChildTable1
ChildTable2

Both ChildTable1 and ChildTable2 have parenttable1ID which is the key. All of the records in childTable1 and childTable2 that have that parenttable1ID must be deleted before the record in ParentTable1 with parenttable1id can be deleted.

The benifit of this is that you can't orphen the Child table records. They must be deleted before the parent table record can be deleted.

Hope that helps.

set particular column's constraint as

Delete Rule as Set null

and

Update Rule as Set null

You can find this option where you define the relationship of tables. it is titled with "Insert and Update Specification" of sql server management studio.

Stored Proc help

20-Aug-07 2:40

I need some help writing a stored proc. First, I am inserting a range of ZipCodes into a db, ZipBegin and ZipEnd(12345-12346). Although that seems relatively simple, however, I need to check those ranges and make sure that there is no other over lapping range.
for more clarity:

range A 12345-12346 is in the db
range B 12344-12347 is being inserted.

as you can see these ranges overlap, if that occurs I need to use a raiserror and rollback the transaction.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do that?

You want to check before or after inserting?

below logic will help you.

Before Inserting
------------------
check whether there is any ZIPCode exist within the range

sql
---
Select @begin = count(ZIPBegin) from tblZIPCodes where ZIPBegin between 12345 and 12346

Select @end = count(ZIPEnd) from tblZIPCodes where ZIPEnd between 12345 and 12346

If @begin > 0 or @end > 0
-- then there is an entry within that range already exist
else
--perform the insertion

After Inserting
----------------
BEGIN TRANSACTION
--Insert the records
-- then use the same sql stmt written above to get the value of @begin and
--@end

If @begin > 1 or @end > 1
-- multiple entries has been made
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
RAISERROR
RETURN
else
--perform the insertion
COMMIT TRANSACTION

I want to check particular column is exists or not before dropping it or I just want to catch an exception while dropping particular column.

I cannot do so.

Thanks in advanced
