Try:
SET IDENTITY INSERT <tablename> ON
UPDATE <tablename>
SET id = id + 100
SET IDENTITY INSERT <tablename> OFF
|
|
|
|
|
The principle of the procedure I have worked out may appear convoluted but it works.
--------------------------
I start with my table:
octx has:
1 India
2 Japan
3 Brazil
------------
xid xname
------------
xid: Primary Key
====================
I create a table:
octy which has:
---------------------
101 y1 1
102 y2 2
103 y3 3
yid yname Idx
--------------------
yid: Primary key
Now I update octy such that:
yname=xname [xname selected from octx such that
octx.xid=octy.Idx.]
-----------------------
This makes the octy as follows:
101 India 1
102 Japan 2
103 Brazil 3
--------------
Now I alter octy to drop the Idx column
-----------------------------
The transformation is complete.
A batch routine can be written to make this happen.

with the following call
<br />
vtFld = m_pRecordset->Fields->GetItem(lpFieldName)->Value;<br />
where lpFieldName is type "memo", I am only getting the first 256 character returned to the variant variable vtFld. I am using MS Access as my database editor which in turn uses JET as the database. Might anyone know why I'm am only getting the first 256 characters returned? I checked all of the fields in vtFld and all the relavent ones contain the returned truncated string.
Thanks!

Do you use ODBC recordsets? I recently run into the same problem when working with DTL (uses ODBC under the hood), and found the solution here[^]
My programming blahblahblah blog. If you ever find anything useful here, please let me know to remove it.

I'm using ADO recordsets.
|
|
|
|
|
Did you use aggregate functions (SUM, AVG, MAX, COUNT, etc) in your sql statement?
Also a memo field will be truncated to 255 characters in a query that uses sorting (ORDER BY).
|
|
|
|
|
Well, I guess there are a couple things I am noticing. To answer the questions above, no, I am not using any aggregate functions and there isn't an ORDER BY in the statement. However, I have other memo fields in other tables which return more than 256 fields when called through ADO, which makes we wonder about the table itself. Does anyone know what might cause a single table to cause these issues? One thing that is different in this table is that there are relationships mapped to it.
thanks!

Well, some people also suggested that there's a bug when calling memo fields.
They recommend either getting a column for every 256 chars (using MID) 
Others recommend calling the GetChunk() function. It takes a long as argument, so you should be able to get everything using it.
Here's a sample of the function called in ASP:
set rst = conn.execute("select job_title, job_descr from jobs")
strTitle = rst.Fields("job_title").value & ""
vChunk = rst.Fields("job_descr").GetChunk(4000)
strDescr = vChunk
Do Until IsNull(vChunk) = true
vChunk = rst.Fields("job_descr").GetChunk(4000)
vDescr = vDescr & vChunk
Loop
Hope it helps!

Hi,
I have a problem with sql:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetGuestbookData<br />
( <br />
@SortOrder varchar(64)<br />
)<br />
AS<br />
<br />
SELECT *<br />
FROM Guestbook INNER JOIN Users<br />
ON Guestbook.AuthorID = Users.RecordID<br />
ORDER BY Guestbook.RecordID +'@SortOrder'<br />
RETURN
I am trying how to write a proc. which retrieves two tables sorted in order which user wants (ASC/DESC) but I don't know how to write it in code according to the value of my variable
-
ORDER BY Guestbook.RecordID ASC/DESC
Thanks.
|
|
|
|

Oh, it was quite easy answer (and stupid question  )
I made a if clause here:
<code>CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetGuestbookData
(
@SortOrder varchar(64)
)
AS
IF @SortOrder='ASC'
BEGIN
SELECT *
FROM Guestbook INNER JOIN Users
ON Guestbook.AuthorID = Users.RecordID
ORDER BY Guestbook.RecordID ASC
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT *
FROM Guestbook INNER JOIN Users
ON Guestbook.AuthorID = Users.RecordID
ORDER BY Guestbook.RecordID DESC
END
RETURN </code>

Urgent! Please help!
Ok. Here is the situation:
Want to use ADO to work with MS Access, BUT!
I want to make ADO to use MS Access OLE DB provider instead of the ODBC. So I'm trying to use Open method of the conenction object in ADO but:
1. if I try to pass full connection string like so:
"PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DSN=C:\mydb.mdb; UID=; PWD=";
I get "Could not find installable ISAM" error. Then I found MSDN article that says that connection string parameters weren't allowed at open time it has to be just the provider name. Set everything else after the initial success. Ok so I try :
2. to call Open method of Connection object with just "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" and empty user name and password. Then I get "Authentication failed." But I do not have any authentication for that db set up. Even more - what Authentication if no db was provided yet?
When I was using OLE DB directly I had "Authentication failed" issue come up one but that was solved by NOT setting properties at all - skipping (I remember empty strings didn't help). But with ADO Open method requires those two parameters for user and password which I have no idea how to skip.
So!
How in the world do you connect to an MDB with ADO via OLEDB provider from C++ in VC 6?
Urgent! Please help!
Thank you very much!

I can't remember on the recordset.first which I had it in ASP.
When comes to ASP.NET, I can't find it.
Is there anyway to declare it?

I didn't get your doubt. Are u talking about Ado.Net or Ado ?

I'm talking about ASP.NET.
Do they have this BOF and EOF?

ASP.NET doesn't handle databases. ASP = Active Server Pages. In other words it is a web application framework.
ADO.NET is the database interface technology in the .NET Framework.
DotNet wrote:

No. ADO.NET uses a different model for accessing the database.
You can access the database in one of two ways.
Using a DataAdapter with DataSets or (for forward & read only operations) you can use a DataReader

Hi,
I have a problem with handling errors from accessing SQL database. When there is an error, SqlException returns a message, such as
"Violation of UNIQUE KEY constraint 'CK_Site_SiteName'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'Site'."
However, My application requires to know which type the error belongs to so that it can process properly. Example, if it catches the above error, it will notify user that "Choose another name."
Give me some ideas, thanks in advance.

The SqlException.Number[^] property will give you the error number that SQL uses, and if you create your own error messages, it will give you the number for that too.

Hi, I'm using ADO .NET but sometimes I get an InvalidOperationException:
ExecuteReader requires an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is Open, Executing.
The class where I'm doing the db stuff has the following in it:
<br />
MyDB::MyDB() {<br />
String* connection = String::Concat(S"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=",<br />
getPath(), S"\\MyDB.mdb;");<br />
m_pDB = new OleDbConnection(connection);<br />
m_pDB->Open();<br />
}<br />
<br />
void MyDB::Query(String* query){<br />
<br />
try {<br />
m_pTable = NULL;<br />
m_pDA = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, m_pDB);<br />
m_pDataSet = new DataSet(" Database");<br />
<br />
m_pDA->Fill(m_pDataSet, "Results");<br />
m_pTable = m_pDataSet->get_Tables()->get_Item("Results");<br />
} catch (Exception* e) {<br />
a = e->GetType()->ToString();<br />
b = e->Message;<br />
c= e->StackTrace;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
There more, but I think the problem's in there. I'd guess I'm running into problems with different threads using the database concurrently? What should I be doing differently?
Thank you, let me know if you need more information.

Hi,
I have a free time after couple of weeks of work, so I decided to finish my project in asp.net and SQL - I have a table Users with user credentials such as name, nickname, email, motto, avatar, ... and now I want to make a guestbook (more comfortable) with all these features like avatar... Although I don't know what to do? Should I create a table "Guestbook" there columns "Nickname" or "RecordID" and "Comment" and then use a repeater, or rather datalist and for each record in Guestbook table find appropriate user details in Users table and add them to datalist? Or it is easier to save these user details along with each record in Guestbook, when user writes it? (I don't think it is a good idea). I would prefer the first way of doing this, but I haven't a clue how to do it - I am a begginer, I have already written a page with repeater, but I used msdn more than anything else, and I think there should be used stored procedures, aren't I? So I ask you, could you help me with this, could you give me an idea (or the sql proc and the code to bind database with datalist  ). Thanks in advance.

Okay, so you have:
User table
----------
Name
Nickname
Email
Motto
Avatar
Guestbook
---------
Nickname or RecordID
Comment
So, some questions you have to ask yourself are:
How do I link the Guestbook table to the user table? For instance, is the Nickname going to be unique? If so then it is a candidate for being the primary key on the User table, and therefore the join field (aka foreign key field) on the Guestbook table.
Am I going to allow more than one comment per user? If you are, then you need an extra field on your guestbook to become the primary key. So maybe you need the Nickname (to join to the user - if that is the User table's primary key) AND the RecordID (to identify each guestbook entry).

In my opinion, yes, you should use stored procedures. Others have their own opinion. Click here[^] if you want to know the benefits of stored procedures.

Both nickname and RecordID(=prim. key) are unique in Users table.

Yes, there will be many comments by the same user (in fact it's discussion, but we don't want to discuss in thread view, but in "guestbook-like" view) I had an idea to connect these two tables together (based on "RecordID" in the Users and "IDofAuthor" in the Guestbook or on "Nickname" in Users and "Nickname" in Guestbook but I don't know if it is possible and how to do it (in stored proc.) and how to bind it with datalist.
Thanks
