MS SQL Server 2005 data types

Hi,
I have some code that executes a stored procedure in SQL Server 2005 database from Weblogic 8.1. There is a Spring framework layer in between. I am having problems passing a datetime parameter to the SP (ther server thinks it's a varchar). According to the BEA documentation here http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs100/jdbc_drivers/mssqlserver.html#wp1088746, a datetime parameter should be passed as java.sql.Types.TIMESTAMP. I've tried TIMESTAMP, DATE, TIME, and none of them work. But, that documentation says it's only for SQL Server 2000. What about 2005? Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance.

We use SQL2005 & WebLogic 8.1, but we use the Microsoft JDBC driver form here
and it all works fine with timestamps. We use this datatype to pass them down java.sql.Timestamp

The MS driver has some enhancements specifically for SQL2005 for performance and handling the new data types. We've always been told to use the vendors driver in preference to the BEA supplied one - that came from BEA!

SQL Server 2005 collation type for the Discovery System?

Greetings,
The SQL Server 2005 Eval 180 day license expired on our Discovery System. I un-installed the Eval copy and installed a licensed SQL Server 2005 EE instance. I searched for the SQL Server collation, and found SAP Note 600027, which recommended Binary order for use with the 850 Multilingual Character Set as the collation.
I attached the existing databases using the script provided with the Discovery system. Started up the SAP ERP instance. I then tried to log into the ERP 300 and got a START_CALL_SICK error message. From the error message details I find, "DB CHECK Wrong Server collation. Perform SQL2005 after upgrade steps. Please see note 126973". Note 126973 seemed to refer me to note 799058. However this talks about upgrading....
It appears to me I simply chose the wrong SQL Server 2005 collation type when installing the licensed coipy of SQL Server.
What collation type should be used?
Thanks,
Jay Warling

After reviewing what I did, it appears I neglected to detach the databases before un-installing SQL Server 2005 evaluation copy.
I did stop the ERP system via the SAP MMC before un-installing but did not detach the databases.
I believe the collation is actually correct, but I am stumped as how to proceed with the START_CALL_SICK error message.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jay

MS SQL Server 2005 Data Conversion Problem

Ideas? Not really, there's nothing wrong-looking about your code, but maybe I could ask some dumb questions.
Has this code never worked, or does it usually work but occasionally this error occurs? Have you just switched to SQL Server 2005 from 2000 and the error started happening?
Does the table you are inserting to only have those 7 columns, or are there others that are getting default values? Does it contain auto-generated identity columns? Are you sure you're using the right table in the right database?

SQL Server 2005 data pull from Oracle

Hi, I am learning how to use Oracle and I ran into this problem.
My database is running on SQL Server 2005.
I have an ODBC connection to Oracle. I also have a VB .Net script that queries the Oracle table that the data resides in.
When the job is running, and if it stalls, I do not get a timeout error. It locks down my database and no other source systems can feed data to me; these are back logged in the queue.
Is there an easier way for me to make a connection that will pull data on a consistent basis? Please help ...
Student Learner

Learning how to use Oracle does not include taking data from Oracle and putting it into SQL Server.
From your description of what is happening I agree with BluShadow. This is not an Oracle issue. This is a coding in VB .NET issue.
Posting the statements you are executing against some unknown version of Oracle would be a good starting point.

SQL Server 2005 data in SAP BI

Hi All !
Having a requirment to pull the SQL Sever 2005 data in SAP BI. How you go about for creating the datasource? As I understand SQL maintains tables. We can create views based on the table. But how to generate the Datasource of out it?
With Regards
Rekha

Hi Rekha:
You might want to consider connecting from BW to SQL Server using either DB Connect or UD Connect (by defining a Source System).
The contents of tables or views on the SQL Server side can be sent to BW after defining the corresponding DataSources.

Sql server 2000 data type

In sql server 2000, what data type do I use for a field that
needs to show two decimal places? It is a weight field, so the
weight in ounces could be something like 12.25 and it needs to
store it this way in the database. I'm kind of new to sql server,
so any help would be greatly appreciated!

You asked "In sql server 2000, what data type do I use for a
field that needs to show two decimal places?" and I answered
"decimal and numeric". How much clearer could I be?
Numeric data types with fixed precision and scale.
decimal[(p[, s])] and numeric[(p[, s])]
Fixed precision and scale numbers. When maximum precision is
used, valid values are from - 10^38 +1 through 10^38 - 1. The
SQL-92 synonyms for decimal are dec and dec(p, s).
p (precision)
Specifies the maximum total number of decimal digits that can
be stored, both to the left and to the right of the decimal point.
The precision must be a value from 1 through the maximum precision.
The maximum precision is 38.
s (scale)
Specifies the maximum number of decimal digits that can be
stored to the right of the decimal point. Scale must be a value
from 0 through p. The default scale is 0; therefore, 0 <= s
<= p. Maximum storage sizes vary, based on the precision.
I recommend that you load SQL Server Books Online on your
computer, as it is available free from Microsoft as a download and
it has everything you will probably need to know about SQL Server.
Or you could just use the online version at

Importing an SQL Server TEXT data type field in Oracle - problem with LONG

Hello,
I work in Oracle 9i and I created a view on a distant SQL Server database that contains a TEXT data type field. But I have a problem when I select that field in Oracle; I have the following error message: "ORA-00997: forbidden use of LONG data type".
Could anybody have a solution for me, to solve that problem?
Thanks a lot!

It is very difficult to suggest anything without seeing your code. I don't even know if what you are seeing is the actual value or an error code. Often, negative numbers are indicative of error codes.
For instance -1 could mean that you have an invalid reference or path, etc...
Can you post your code?

Convert MS SQL server image data type into oracle clob

Hi all! I'm tryng to access to Microsoft SQL server with Oracle via ODBC. Oracle is not able to use the image data type of Microsoft SQL server. Do you know a way to convert this data type in an oracle format? The explicit casting converts image to long raw, but after the conversion Oracle is not able to manage these data type. Thank you very much!

Sql server - 2005 - Data Protection Tool

Hi,
We are looking any Data Security tool for out existing Data for Protection, we would like to do the Data Encryption and Data masking with some user activity reporting.
Anyone know any good tool?
Right now we are looking tool which one has minimal application rewriting or code changes.
Thanks,

Those features were added in SQL Server and weren't available in 2005. Except EFS and Bitlocker which are implementations outside SQL Server.

Upgrade data base from sql server 2005 to sql server2008

Hi guys,
What is the best way for upgrade my SQL Server 2005 data base to SQL 2008?

It depends on how you want migrate, in-place or side-by-side?
In-place: Run a backup of all databases and then install the new SQL Server version
Side-by-side: Install the new SQL Server, backup all database of old SQL Server and restore them on the new one. Then copy all logins from old to new server.

Sql server replication from SQL SERVER VERSION(7.0) to SQL SERVER 2005

Hi All,
We are trying to create a replication between Sql server 7.0 data to SQL server 2005 data . We tried to create a local subscription in Sql server ,when tried to connect to publisher running in Sql server 7.0 it is showing an error message
like "This Sql server vresion(7.0) is not supported" .
Could any one please help us with this issue ?
Thanks
Sandy

Hi CRM_Learner,
SQL Server version 7.0 Service Pack 4 (SP4) is the earliest version that can participate in a replication topology with SQL Server 2005. We need to verify the version of SQL Server. If you configure transactional replication with updating subscribers,
for a SQL Server 7.0 Publisher, only SQL Server 7.0 Subscribers are supported. SQL Server 7.0, 2000 was out of support in the SQL Server Forums. I suggest you install SQL Server 2005 or later version to configure the SQL Server replication.
For more information, there is a detail about using multiple Versions of SQL Server in a replication topology.

Update data automatically in sql server 2005 based on condition proplem

Hi guys i have problem I have two table
First one is
Second One is Vacation
as relation one to many (vacation has foreign key of Contract No OF Table Contract)
what i need is to update Contract table with field status =Finish where start vacation date >end contract Date
How i do that in sql server 2005 to make update automatically
Ex
contract table
status nvarchar(20)
end contract date time
vacation table
start vacation date time
end vacation date time
start vacation date is 23/10/2014
and End
is 26/10/2014
Now not update status in contract table to finish because vacation date start is less from end contract
but when date today is 27/10/2014 update contract table field status to finish
automatically with sql server 2005
How i do that condition to make update to data automatically based on changing on date
Update statement i need is
update Contract set status = finish where start vacation>end contract
but problem how i write this statement to update data automatically based on date today

Please post DDL, so that people do not have to guess what the keys, constraints, Declarative Referential Integrity, data types, etc. in your schema are. Learn how to follow ISO-11179 data element naming conventions and formatting rules. Temporal data should
use ISO-8601 formats. You failed again. Code should be in Standard SQL as much as possible and not local dialect.
This is minimal polite behavior on SQL forums. Now we have to write the DDL that you did not bother with! What you did post was wrong! There is no key or constraints. There is no generic “status” in RDBMS; a "<something in particular>_status"
is a state of being, so it needs a temporal duration. The correct idiom for this data model is:
CREATE TABLE Vacations
(vacation_contract CHAR(15) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
vacation_start_date DATE NOT NULL,
vacation_end_date DATE,
CHECK(vacation_start_date < vacation_end_date),
Oh, a field is nothing like a column. You need to read a basic SQL or RDBMS book; you do not know the basics.

Importing data from SQL Server 2005 database

Dear Friends
Scenario:
We have built an application for which the database is SQL Server 2005.
Now, we have planned to switch over to Oracle 8i database.
There is a field with data type as Varchar(Max) – which can hold data with a maximum length of 231 characters (SQL Server 2005)
In Oracle 8i, the Varchar2 max size 4000 bytes or characters.
We want to import the data from SQL Sever 2005 database into Oracle 8i database.In the process, the value for the particular field whose data type set as Varchar(Max) in SQL Server 2005 and contains more than 4000 characters gets automatically truncated while importing into oracle.
We want the entire characters stored in the field to be imported into oracle database.
Please suggest solutions.
Thanks and regards
Bharath Kumar V

Use CLOB if the data is purely text data. BLOB otherwise.
But the question is why you want to switch over to an Oracle version which is de-supported by Oracle?
