BinToBit function

Anyone happen to have a function that does the following:

I have an integer for example 57.

This translates to binary: 111001

I'm looking for a function like this:

Code Snippet

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[BinToBit] (@.ValueCol int, @.Number TinyInt)

RETURNS bit AS

If I would call the function:

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 0) it should return 1

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 1) it should return 0

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 2) it should return 0

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 3) it should return 1

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 4) it should return 1

select dbo.BinToBit(57, 5) it should return 1

I've been looking on the net, because I'm convinced someone must have this kind of function, unfortunately haven't been able to find it.

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[BinToBit] (@.ValueCol int, @.Number TinyInt)

RETURNS bit AS

BEGIN

RETURN (@.ValueCol & POWER(2,@.Number))

END

binnacles

Is there a way to view binnacles (or details of
transactions) in SQL Server 2000
Hi,
Did you meant reading the transaction log file;
There is an undocumented command (DBCC LOG) that lets you see the records in
transaction log.
Here is an sample:
DBCC LOG('DBNAME',2)
or there is good tool from Lumigent called Log explorer
www.lumigent.com
Thanks

Binding WebService as Datasource

I've painstakingly managed to get a XmlDocument from a webservice and run this to retrieve data.

However, i cannot bind any of the returned elements to anything. Any help appreciated.

Are you using the XML data processing extension? What is the Query that you are using? More specifically, what is the Element Path for the query?

For more information, take a look at the following article:

hello

is it possible to to bind a single field from a database table to a textbox.

I am trying to open a web form with five textboxes on it. When it loads is it possible to have the textboxes filled with a different field from a row in a database, selected with a sql statment.

Thanks in advance NubNub

Yes, that is quite possible.

But you will get better assistance if you post your question in one of the .NET ASP related forums.

Binding SQL to an IP

I've got SQL 2k5 on a Win2k3 box. I'm trying to find information or a how to on how to set up SQL to only respond to requests on a particular IP

Can anybody point me in the right direction or explain how?

HI,

AFAIK you cannot bin SQL Server to respond to particular IP address but you can trick with firewall settings.

binding SQL server to localhost?

Greetings all,
I am a network security professional rather than a MS SQL admin, so I
apologize in advance if this is a bit of a basic question for this
list. I know an admin setting up a SQL server that will only be
accesible by a webserver running on the same host (not happy about
running private vs publicly avaialable services on the same host , but
it's what we've got). As such, I'd like to recommend to him that the
SQL server only listen on the localhost ip, 127.0.0.1, thereby making
it inaccesible to the outside world. I looked around the MS
knowledgebase but couldn't find a clear document stating how to do
this. Is it even possible? Is there a better option for this
configuration?
Thanks,
BrianYou propably need to firewall the server then.

binding SQL server to localhost?

Greetings all,

I am a network security professional rather than a MS SQL admin, so I
apologize in advance if this is a bit of a basic question for this
list. I also cross-posted this to microsoft.public.sqlserver.server,
so sorry if anyone's read it already.

It's been suggested that firewalling is the only option, but I'd really
like to do *both* (firewall & bind to localhost). The firewall in this
case will have to be host-based instead (software) instead of hardware
for non-technical reasons, so additionally if anyone recommends a
software firewall they use for this purpose I'd appreciate it. My firs
impulse is to recommend Tiny, but I've never used a software firewall
for an MS SQL/Web server before.

Thanks,
BrianOne option is to disable network access completely, and use only shared
memory for access to MSSQL (this is how MSDE operates by default since
SP3), so only applications running on the same machine will be able to
access it. Although someone could still attack MSSQL by compromising
the web server, or using SQL injection.

MSSQL itself doesn't provide any way to accept connections from
specified hosts - you would normally use the operating system's IP
filtering functions to do that.

Simon|||There isn't a way to have sql server listen on a specific ip. Sorry.

If you haven't already seen this, take a look at the Network
Configuration dialog on the general tab of the server's properties.
Two protocols are enabled by default. TCPIP is one of them, and you
can change the port and set it to ignore discovery broadcasts. That
would make the server invisible to anyone looking for it. However,
anyone who portscans the server would notice whatever port you put it
on and (I'd assume) be able to figure out that it's a SQL Server. So,
you do still need to firewall it.

The other protocol is called Named Pipes. That's basically using
memory to communicate. If the application you're developing supports
it, I'd suggest using this and turning off TCPIP support altogether.
This is probably faster anyway.

Binding Render output to ReportViewer control?

I'm trying to take the output of the Render method and bind it to the ReportViewer control. First of all, is this possible? If so, what is the best way to render the report (format: XML,CSV, NULL, etc), and then how to I 'bind' the result to the control?

I'm proving some code to demonstrate how I'm rendering the report:
...
string format = "XML";
string devInfo = @."<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>";
ReportExecutionService rs = new ReportExecutionService();
ExecutionInfo execInfo = new ExecutionInfo();
ExecutionHeader execHeader = new ExecutionHeader();
byte[] result= null;

rs.ExecutionHeaderValue = execHeader;
execInfo = rs.LoadReport(path, null);
string SessionId = rs.ExecutionHeaderValue.ExecutionID;
result = rs.Render(format, devInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Binding last row in table to a label

Hi all. I have a label on my page and I want to bind it to a field in a table. The catch is that I want to bind it to the last row in the table. I think I can use the custom binding, but I don't know how to bind to the last row. Any Suggestions ?

p.s. The page is tied to an SqlDataSource that retrieves the data from the above table.

Thanks in advance.

Could you not change the datasource to only return the last row? Or did you want all the other rows as well?

What about

Label1.text = dt.Rows(dt.Rows.Count-1)("FieldName").ToString()

where dt is the datatable containing the data you are binding to.

|||

Thanks for the reply GavDraper,

but what is the type of dt, how can I use a sql server table in my code ? and what is the meaning of "FieldName" ?

|||

the type of dt is datatable. You would need to replace fieldname with the name of the field you want to pull data from. below is a very rough quick example although I'm unable to test this as im not at my development machine, you would also want to include some error handling

dim dt as new datatable()dim sqlCon as new sqlConnection(strCon)dim sqlAdp as new SqlDataAdapter()sqlAdp.SelectCommand.Connection = sqlCon()

sqlAdp.Selectcommand.CommandText ("SELECT * FROM tablename")sqlAdp.fill(dt)lbl1.Text = dt.Rows(dt.Rows.Count-1)("FieldName")

|||

I'll give it a try,

but is it possible to do it without the code behind ?

I have the label and I use databinding to bind the fields in the table using the sqldatasource, but somehow it gives me the first row in the table.

I use a stored procedure to select the data from the table and use parameters in that stored procedure. So is it possible to bind to these parameters declaratively so they would give me the fields in the last row ?

The stored procedure:

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.createPage@.PageTitlenvarchar(300)OUTPUT, @.PageMetaDescnvarchar(300)OUTPUT,@.PageMetaWordsnvarchar(300)OUTPUT,@.PageDescnvarchar(300)OUTPUT,@.PageTemplateint OUTPUTASDECLARE @.pIdAS intSELECT @.pId =cast(SCOPE_IDENTITY()AS int)--selecting the id of the last row inserted--selecting the data from that rowSELECT PageTitle,PageMetaDesc,PageMetaWords,PageDesc,PageHTML, PageTemplate, PageSummaryHTMLFROM PagesWHERE PageId = @.pIdGO

|||

that stored procedure is returning the data in no particular order how can you be sure its always the last record you want? You could change the stored procedure to only return 1 record by using the TOP keyword but to make this accurate the data would have to be ordered to guarentee you will always get the correct row.

binding input parameters leads to SQL_ERROR

I am trying to read the results from a query like
select a, b
from mytbl
where col0 = ?
The first time I run SQLExecute, everything works fine, but when I call
SQLExecute a second time with a modified input parameter, it returns
SQL_ERROR. Below is the code I'm running with the error checking removed and
the names simplified.
SQLAllocHandle(SQL_HANDLE_STMT, hconn, &m_hstmt)) ;
SQLPrepare(m_hstmt, (UCHAR *)m_query.GetBuffer(), m_query.GetLength()));
SQLBindParameter(m_hstmt, 1, SQL_PARAM_INPUT, SQL_C_LONG, SQL_INTEGER, 0, 0,
&where_param, 0, 0);
SQLBindCol(m_hstmt, 1, SQL_C_BIT, addr1, 0, 0)
SQLBindCol(m_hstmt, 2, SQL_C_BIT, addr2, 0, 0)
SQLExecute(m_hstmt) //works ok
SQLFetchScroll(m_hstmt, SQL_FETCH_NEXT, 0)
where_param = 10
SQLExecute(m_hstmt) //fails
SQLFetchScroll(m_hstmt, SQL_FETCH_NEXT, 0)
My goal is to run execute many times with a variety of parameters. I was
trying to have the odbc driver read from the address specified in
SQLBindParameter to set the value of the input parameter. I'm further
confused by the problem because when I try to retrieve error information by
calling SQLGetDiagRec, nothing is returned. Thanks for your help.
Scott
The problem goes away when I call SQLCloseCursor after completing the fetch.
The MSDN SQLBindParameter documentation at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...dparameter.asp
gives no indication that SQLCloseCursor should be needed.
I suppose that I am now just concerned that I am introducing extra
processing overhead by calling SQLCloseCursor.

|||Are you making sure that you've fetch all of the rows? Even if only
one row is returned by the query, you should call SQLFetchXXX() until
it returns SQL_NO_DATA. Otherwise the driver doesn't necessarily know
that you've finished fetching rows on the current resultset/cursor.
Alternatively, you can use SQLMoreResults() to flush the remaining data
on the wire and position on the next resultset (if there is one,
otherwise it cleans up the connection).
SQLCloseCursor shouldn't add too much overhead. I'm assuming you're
using the default (firehose) cursor. If so, SQLCloseCursor just makes
sure that all of the data from the previous statement has been
consumed, and the connection is ready for the next statement.

Binding Gridview from two different tables

Hi all,

The Scenario:

Database1:Table1(callingPartyNumber,originalCalledPartyNumber, finalCalledPartyNumber, DateTimeConnect, DateTimeDisconnect, Duration)

Database2:Table2(Name,Number)

Output in Gridview:

callingPartyNumber

NameoriginalCalledPartyNumberfinalcalledPartyNumberdateTimeConnecteddateTimeDisconnectedDuration (HH:MM:SS)

I bind gridview programatically using DataTable and stored procedures. The data comes from a table (Table1) in a database (Database1) on SQL Server. The gridview displays fields callingPartyNumber, originalCalledPartyNumber, finalCalledPartyNumber, DateTimeConnect, DateTimeDisconnect and Duration in this order. All the columns in this gridview are databound columns.

I have another table (Table2) in a seperate SQL Server database (Database2) but on the same server which maps the callingPartNumber value with the name attached with that number. Note that the field names in Table2 are different from the field names in Table1. Is it possible to display the Name field also in the gridview after the first field callingPartyNumber and then the other fields.

Its like data coming from two tables into the gridview.

Thanks

I would suggest you to use a View in GridView by joining this tables.

CREATE VIEW dbo.Callers AS

SELECT dbo.Database1.Table1.* dbo.Database2.Table2.* FROM dbo.Database1.Table1 RIGHT OUTER JOIN dbo.Database2.Table2 WHERE dbo.Database1.Table1.CallingPartyNumber = dbo.Database2.Table2.Number

|||

SELECT callingPartyNumber,Name,originalCalledPartyNumber, finalCalledPartyNumber, DateTimeConnect, DateTimeDisconnect, Duration

FROM database1.dbo.Table1 t1

LEFT JOIN database2.dbo.Table2 t2 ON t1.callingPartyNumber=t2.Number

Change "LEFT JOIN" to "JOIN" if you only want records that have a name.

|||

Fabulous!!! Thank you so much. I guess I explained my problem nicely this time...eh...One question though, I didn't even get a chance to try your suggestion and the post was marked as answer within a few minutes of your posting it. I read somewhere, most probably in a post from a moderator, that they give us a chance (usually 48 hrs) to mark the post as an answer.

|||

I am still trying to figure out this but thought would share. You might know what I am doing wrong. When I do the LEFT JOIN, it pulls all the names right, but the total count of records is always a bit off than when I don't do a LEFT JOIN. I read about all the joins and LEFT JOIN is what I am looking for, but I think I am going wrong somewhere. I also have a WHERE clause added to the query.

CREATE Procedure GetCDR_LikeTollFree ( @.theDurationint =null,--to find duration more than theDuration @.totalDurationbigint =null,--to find the total duration for the result set @.callingPartyNumbervarchar(255) =null, @.originalCalledPartyNumbervarchar(255) =null, @.finalCalledPartyNumbervarchar(255) =null, @.dateTimeConnectdatetime =null, @.dateTimeDisconnectdatetime =null )AS BEGIN SELECT callingPartyNumber,Name, originalCalledPartyNumber, finalCalledPartyNumber,dateadd(ss, (dateTimeConnect + (60 * 60 * -5))+3600 ,'01-01-1970 00:00:00')AS dateTimeConnect,dateadd(ss, (dateTimeDisconnect + (60 * 60 * -5))+3600,'01-01-1970 00:00:00')AS dateTimeDisconnect, durationFROM db1.dbo.Calls t1LEFTJOIN db2.dbo.NumPlan t2ON t1.callingPartyNumber=t2.NumberWHERE (t1.callingPartyNumberLIKEISNULL(@.callingPartyNumber, t1.callingPartyNumber) +'%')AND (t1.originalCalledPartyNumberLIKEISNULL(@.originalCalledPartyNumber, t1.originalCalledPartyNumber) +'%')AND (t1.finalCalledPartyNumberLIKEISNULL(@.finalCalledPartyNumber, t1.finalCalledPartyNumber) +'%')AND (t1.duration >= @.theDuration)AND ((t1.datetimeConnect - 14400) >=ISNULL(convert(bigint,datediff(ss,'01-01-1970 00:00:00', @.dateTimeConnect)), t1.datetimeConnect))AND ((t1.dateTimeDisconnect - 14400) <=ISNULL(convert(bigint,datediff(ss,'01-01-1970 00:00:00', @.dateTimeDisconnect)), t1.dateTimeDisconnect))END

The query before inserting the LEFT JOIN was giving the correct number of records.

|||

Sorry about that...I am pretty sure the problem is at the table end. I have some bad data (duplicates) and thats creating a problem.

|||

Looking at your query, the only reason I can see that the record counts would be different is if in the NumPlan table, you have more than 1 name listed for a specific Number. If that is the case, then you will get one record back for each name.

As for your other question, moderators can also mark posts as answered (Submitters can always unmark them if need be). But it helps when people are scanning the forums looking for questions that haven't been answered, so I normally mark posts that I feel have a 95%+ chance of fully answering the question as answered. Unfortuantely, the moderator and MVP tags are a bit quirky and they come and go by themselves sometimes, so it's hard to tell who is a moderator/mvp and who isn't.

You are absolutely right. I figured that out but it took some time. I keep trying myself and when I fall short of time, I post, and it has happened so many times that I figure out the solution to the problem after posting.

Binding error

Hi all

I have a form view which uses a SQL data source control to retrieve it's data from the sql express database

the form view is used for view,edit,delete and insert data into the database

in the insert mode I have two dropdownlists, where the second one is depending on the first one to retrieve the correct data from the data baseBUT

when selecting a value in the first dropdownlist it give me the following erro:

Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.

Please How can do this

any help is appriciated

bye

You cannt do this using this method. There are many work arrounds out there, but the easiest I believe is the CascadingDropDown control which is part of the AJAX.NET Control Toolkit.

http://www.asp.net/ajax/ -- Install the AJAX.NET FRAMEWORK AND configure your site to use it.

You will need to:

1.) First Create a Web Service Class like as followed:

using System;using System.Web;using System.Collections;using System.Configuration;using System.Web.Services;using System.Web.Services.Protocols;using System.Collections.Generic;using AjaxControlToolkit;using System.Data;using System.Data.SqlClient;using System.Web.Script.Services;/// <summary>/// Cascading DropDownList AjaxControlToolkit Web Service/// </summary>[WebService(Namespace ="http://tempuri.org/")][WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)][System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]public class DataService : System.Web.Services.WebService { private string connectionString =ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["CarrierDBConnectionString"].ConnectionString; public DataService () {} [WebMethod] [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethod()] public CascadingDropDownNameValue[] GetCarriers(string knownCategoryValues, string category) { List<CascadingDropDownNameValue> values = new List<CascadingDropDownNameValue>(); using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("CARRIER_SELECT_ALL", conn)) { cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; conn.Open(); SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection); while (dr.Read()) { values.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue((string)dr["NAME"], dr["ID"].ToString())); } } } return values.ToArray(); } [WebMethod] [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethod()] public CascadingDropDownNameValue[] GetSubsidiariesByCarrierID(string knownCategoryValues, string category) { List<CascadingDropDownNameValue> values = new List<CascadingDropDownNameValue>(); using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("CARRIER_SELECT_SUBSIDIARY_BYID", conn)) { string[] categoryValues = knownCategoryValues.Split(':', ';'); int id = Convert.ToInt32(categoryValues[1]); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@.id",id); conn.Open(); using (SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)) { if (dr.HasRows) { while (dr.Read()) { values.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue((string)dr["NAME"], dr["ID"].ToString())); } } } } }return values.ToArray(); }}

2.) Create the Actual Web Service

Click on the Project in the 'Solution Explorer' and 'Add New Item' and then select Web Service (for instance in this example: DataService.asmx)

3.) Hook up your ajax controls and dropdownlist

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="updatePnlInsert" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCarrierInsert" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" Width="100%" DataSourceID="sqldsCarriersInsert" DataTextField="NAME" DataValueField="ID" SelectedValue='<%# Eval("CARRIER_ID") %>' AppendDataBoundItems="true">
<asp:ListItem Value="" Text="<select carrier>" />
</asp:DropDownList>

Binding Different DataSets to One Table.

I have a situation where i am binding a Dataset Dset1 to a table.
, I also have a Dset2 which i am not binding. Now as the Rows gets
rendered depending on Dset1 i also want to populate a value from Dset2
(2nd Datset ) in a cell for a particular Row.
How do i do that?
Any help.
ThanksYou cannot bind a data region (in this case a table) to more than one
dataset. You should re-design the report so that it has one dataset that has
a query returning both the data currently in Dset1 and in Dset2. This will
most likely mean writing a JOIN SQL query.

populating your row in there - and THEN returning one data-set back to the
report server.

Binding Datatable to Report

Hi,

I have created a datatable which is filled by the result of stored procedure. So I need to know like how to bind this datatable with the report using report viewer.

First you have to make sure you have a dataset. Also that the data set is connecting to this table.

If this is your first time creating a report I would suggest finding a walk through on a simple report creation

Here is a pretty good wak through

Binding dataset to a reportviewer control

Hi,

I need to bind my custom dataset, which i retrieve by executing some query to a reportviewer control. I don't want to create a typed dataset in the application. Is there any way to do it? The dataset that i bind will be built in a seperate class. If I plan to use a Object Data source, what are the steps to follow. Pls help.

thanks,

Saravanan

www.gotreportviewer.com provides information about how to use object data sources specifically at: http://www.gotreportviewer.com/objectdatasources/index.html

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the reply. I already read through that article. What i really need is to bind a dataset ( which i create in my application) to be bound to the report viewer. The dataset will have some columns from the database ( thro a select query), some columns may be added by me. I want to bind this custom dataset to the report viewer control (local mode processing). Please let me know if this can be done and also some steps to do it.

Thanks in advance,

Saravanan.

Binding dataset to a crystal report

Hi all,

The code I used is as follows.

dim dbconnection
as new oledb.oledbconnection(....conn string...)

Dim SQL As String

SQL = "SELECT * FROM <TABLENAME> "

dbConnection.Open()
Dim objAdapter As New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(SQL, dbConnection)
Dim objDataSet As New DataSet
objAdapter.Fill(objDataSet)
Dim oReport As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
Dim sRptPath As String = Server.MapPath("CRlMT.rpt")
oReport.Load(sRptPath)
oReport.SetDataSource(objDataSet)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = oReport

when i ran it I got the following error.

Logon failed. Details: ADO Error Code: 0x Source: Provider Description: Authentication failed. Native Error: Error in File <path>.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters.

what I am doing wrong here. Help is greatly appreciated.

note: asp.net web app.Make sure the file exists at the application path. Also make sure if you have permission to access the databasesql
