I don't think that you can change the storage format. Using Convert function would be better. If your application uses common date format in all areas, consider putting the convert inside a custom function. Use this custom function everywhere.

SQL Server stores the data in a datetime datattype (a number underneath it all), the format is only a concern of your presentation layer.

DATEPART() function should solve your problem
Ex.
<br />
WHERE DatePart(wk, Convert(DateTime, ColA)) = DatePart(wk, Convert(DateTime, getdate()))<br />
AND Year(ColA) = Year(GetDate())<br />

Does anyone know how to (or if it is possible) to change SQL 2005 editor to select text inside square brackets without the brackets?
eg USE [MyDatabase]
If you doubleclick on 'MyDatabase' it selects the brackets as well. Good old QA in SQL 2000 just selected the text.

Hi All,
I have a table report which has 10 fields as cols.The last 2 fields come from 2 diffrent subreport, having a single field each. There are also 2 groups in this table. I have to limit the rows by checking each cell in a group is 0. If all the cells have got a 0 then hide the row. I can check for all the cells except the last 2(Subreport).
Since the last 2 cells has only got 2 subreports instead of a textbox, as it is the case for the remaining 8 cells, i don't know how to check for data returning from a subreport. For all the other textboxes i have checked it as ReportItems!textbox1.value=0
Can anyone help me with this Please?
Thanks & Regards,
Payal

Subreport report items have a NoRows property. You can check its value to determine whether any data has been returned for the subreport.

Thanks Paul .
Can this property be checked from the main report?
I don't know how to refer the subreport from the main report...Like ReportItems!txtbox1 is there options for referring to a subreport also?
It will be really helpful if u could help me out with some examples as i am coming across this for the first time.
Cheers

Ok, I'm tried and I'm making mistakes, but for the life of me I don't see what's wrong with the following sproc. I even ran it and then tried an external Select @@Identity which did return a value, but not the sproc.
SPROC:
@CourseNumber int OUTPUT,
@CourseName nvarchar(100),
@College int,
@Department int,
@Description nvarchar(500)
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
INSERT INTO Course
(CourseName, College, Department,Description)
VALUES
(@CourseName, @College, @Department,@Description)
SELECT @CourseNumber = @@IDENTITY

Does table Course contain any columns where the IDENTITY property is true?

Yes it does, the CourseNumber column.
Anyways, it works now. I restarted the DB and now it works. Go figure. Thanks though

Hi, I have a table that contains a column of type XML, and an XSL style sheet is stored within these. Inside each XSL, there is a value called TargetURL - which I would like to update to URL. The text replace function does not work with XML, and I did not find anything in google. Does anyone know how this can be done?

"An Error has occured whilst establishing a connection to the server.When connecting to sqlserver 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact under default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.(Provider: named pipes; error 40-Could not open connection to sql server"
Hi All
i am getting the above error when i am trying to retrieve data from sql 2005.
i have created my project in vs2005.
my connection string = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=MYDB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=sa"
i have already enabled all my Sqlexpress protocols and enabled remote connection in the management express.
do you have any ideas on how to solve this.
p.s. the program works fine if i create an odbc to the db but i dont want to use an odbc.
thanks

Hi Anoop,
Please follow the below mentioned steps:
Step 1) Make sure SQL SERVER is up and the instance you try to connect is running.
Step 2) Your system Firewall should not block SQL Server port.
Step 3) Go to Computer Management >> Service and Application >> SQL Server 2005 Configuration >> Network Configuration
Enable TCP/IP protocol. Make sure that SQL SERVER port is by Default 1433.
Step 4) Now follow this KB Article of MSDN depending on your server : http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277
You may also take a look at the following link of Microsoft Forum.

I hope this helps .

Hi John
Thanks for you suggestions...
i tried those but still didn't work..
after some investigation i discovered that the connectionstring was not correct.
it should have read...
"Data Source=ANOOPNB\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=MYDB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=sa"i used the vs2005 wizard under the settings menu to get this.
this solved the problem for me...
thank you so much though!

I am working on a project that generates reports via SSRS, and i am having the following problem. for the LoadReport method, i am using "/temp" for the report path. i have placed a "temp" folder every place on the server i can imagine to help the service "find" it, but I keep getting this error:
The item '/temp' cannot be found. ---> The item '/temp' cannot be found.
here is the stack trace:
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. <br />

<br />
<br />
ANy idea? This is my SSRS project, and outside of this little roadblock, it is moving along beautifully.

The report path should be the full path to the report relative to the root folder, including the name of the report itself. You appear to have just specified the name of the folder the report resides in and not the name of the report itself. If you don't specify the name of the report, how can the report server know what report you want to load?

Hi,
I'm exporting my report to Excel and there are colums missing ! Specifically columns where visibility is conditional. I can see them on the server, where they appear and disappear corrdctly. Is excel just copying each page or is it trying to be cleverer than that?
I just want what I can see exporting to Excel, that's not what is happening.
Thanks in Advance.

how to insert null to an EMPTY cell in SQL SERVER...
i.e, in a field, i enter some values and deleted it. so, it is considered as EMPTY field and not null. i need a query to make that field <NULL>
can anyone help me? - KARAN

UPDATE <tablename> <br />
SET <col> = NULL <br />
WHERE LEN(<col>) = 0 </col></col></tablename>
this works for string data
even recollect reading IsEmpty() function in SQL Server
you may even try with this. I've never used this function.

thanks a lot krish-KP... can i have it for DATETIME field also? i.e.. when the DATETIME field is EMPTY or 1/1/1900, it should be of <null>. how to achieve it? - KARAN

This solution is when you are manually putting data in the fields rom enterprise manager.
Just click on the cell and do " control 0 ".
That is press control key and zero.
this will get NULL value in the empty field.
