a bulk insert question

I was given a text file to use to insert bulk-ly into a table.

The file is made up in a way that at the end of each line it has a very very long line of spaces (i.e a string). The last column in the table is supposed to accepted an nvarchar no bigger than 3. I know there's a possibility to increase the size of the nvarchar, but I want to avoid putting the string of spaces in the table.

How can I over come the problem with the file? obviously deleting each row of spaces is too much trouble for a file that has over 40000 rows...

I hope you can help me.

hi,
you can insert bulk insert the it first to a temporary table with the last column has a bigger size then have a SP that cleanse the data and insert it to the destination table.

- clintz|||

If it is just leading blanks then you need not to worry..

Instead of BULK INSERT use the OPENROWSET..

It will automatically remove the leading blanks..

SELECT

*

FROM

OPENROWSET

(

'MSDASQL',

'Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};DefaultDir=c:\','SELECT * FROM Data.csv'

);

|||

I often consider it a good practice to first load data to a 'staging' table, a table with no constraints, indexes, etc.

Then after the data has been loaded, it is easy to have other procedures that 'cleanse' or conform the data before loading into the destination table. I can identify exceptions and set them aside for further inspection, I can 'transform' data into whatever form is required by the database, for example, 0 and 1 may be stored as 'M' and 'F' in the database (or vice-versa.)

I never assume that imported data will always meet the requirements of the database.

8K/page limit

Hi there,
Does the 8K/page (row) limit also involve views? We're trying to insert a
record into a view (via nested instead of insert triggers) and the query
results in:
Server: Msg 8152, Level 16, State 9, Procedure CIM_LogicalDevice_UPD, Line 1
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
The view is made up of tables of which none are exceeding the 8K limiet. The
query does not pass [n][var]char values bigger than defined on table level.
Any clues?
Thanks,

FYI:
Preceding the T-SQL with a "SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF" results in a succesful
insert (and all columns are populated correctly) but we don't feel quite
comfortable yet :-|
I've checked books online: there are no aggregate functions involved, nor
binary or varbinary data, nor distributed queries.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
SLE|||The error indicates that you _are_ passing character values that are larger
than the columns they are stored in. If the row size was the problem you
would get a different error message. Are you not accidentally passing a char
to a varchar column? I assume you have checked your code already, but the
only explanation I can give at this moment is that you have missed
something. If you're sure you haven't can you please post your code so we
can have a look through it?

8.5x11.0 Landscape reports insert extra page?

I can't seem to get a landscape report to render properly no matter what I try. It always inserts an extra page between each page of data. The report is sized to 10.5 x 7.00. If I remove portions of the report and resize to 8.0x10.5 it prints fine.
Anybody have any ideas on this?Are you talking render on the web page or when you export?
I had this issue with export to PDF or TIFF and I have to
make the page width > 12 to get it to work correctly.

6.5 reasons for slow inserts and blocking

Hallo!

I have a table in sql 6.5SP5a with 2`130`698 rows. The table has a primary
key on identity column and an insert trigger that updates the inserted row
according to some logic. Recently I've noticed that some amount of
intermittent blocking is occuring. It happens when the stored procedure that
inserts a new row in the table is receiving simultaneous calls. The
procedure looks something like this:

create procedure pr_insert_or_update
@.mode tinyint,
@.id int,
@.param1 int,
@.param2 datetime,
@.param3 varchar(3)

as

if @.mode=0
begin

insert into Table(column1, column2, column3, column4, column5)
values(param1, param2, param3, user_name(), host_name())

select @.@.identity as identity_column,
column_updated_by_the_trigger
from Table where identity_column=@.@.identity

end

else
begin

update table set column1=@.param1, column2=@.param2,
column3=@.param3, column4=user_name(), column5=host_name()
where identity_column=@.id

select @.id

end

The syprocesses waittype, status, and cmd entries for the suid at the head
of a blocking chain are usually 0x0000, runnable, and SELECT accordingly.
Although cmd is SELECT, DBCC OPENTRAN for the (user) database shows that the
oldest open transaction is "insert" and it belongs to the suid at the head
of a blocking chain. Also the exclusive blocking page locks are held.
I used the blocker script from Microsoft to gather this information. Still,
I'm stuck with finding out what is the cause of blocking since the waittype
is usually 0x0000 and DBCC PSS doesn't return any result in my case.

Any ideas on what could have caused/how to resolve blocking? Could it be
slow network when users are holding page locks for too long? Maybe I should
consider switching on "insert row lock" for the Table?

Many thanks!Two things come to mind.

1) It appears to me that you have a trigger on the table, column_updated_by_the_trigger, so the INSERT transaction is actually a couple of SQL statements linked together into 1 transaction. The INSERT plus any SQL statements within the trigger. So locks on the INSERT are being held until the trigger has been completed.

2) Once the trigger has completed, the statement will auto commit or auto rollback, I say this because I see no BEGIN TRAN, and I'm assuming the application that calls this has not issued it and you have the default settings, Implicit Transactions set to false.
So when the INSERT finishes and you have released the locks the next process that is in-line to execute the INSERT statement will happen, however the first process now will execute the SELECT, but will be locked out by the second process doing the INSERT.
Two options to solve this (a) Place a BEGIN TRAN prior to the INSERT and a COMMIT TRAN after the SELECT or (b) Place the hint (nolock) after the table name in the SELECT.

547 error: help decoding

Can someone explain in more detail, or in plain english, what this error is trying to say.. ?

"An SQL error occured - 547 error: INSERT conflicted with column Foreign Key constraint 'Employee_FK00'. The conflict occured in database NAME, table 'Union', column 'UnionName'. "

I get this error aftering trying to add a new row in my .Net Winform i'm developing. Thanks!It looks like you are trying to insert a row in a child table without a parent row. Make sure that there is a row in the table that 'Employee_FK00' is referencing before you do the insert.|||Well.. more specifically, there are two tables 1. Employee and 2. tbl_Union. In the employee table there is Lastname, firstname, EmployeeID, and Union. All the different Unions are in the tbl_Union, with a Union# and Union Name field. Both tables have rows in them.

The vb.net Application was taking the Union# from the tbl_Union and inserted the value in Union under Employee. But i keep getting that SQL error.|||According to the error message, the foreign key is trying to match on UnionName, not Union#. Can you provide the DDL for the tables, including the foriegn key constraint definition?|||Sure can, but i need your help. What is the best way to get this information? I'm new to this... :p|||It depends. I just need the column names of the tables and the foreign key definition. I suspect that you are populating the union#, but for some reason, the foreign key is trying to point to UnionName.|||Well there is the "EMPLOYEE" table, which has fields Employee# (Primary Key), lastname, firstname, union. Then, there is the "UNION" table with fields, Union# (Foreign key), and UnionName. That's the basics...|||What DBMS are you using? What columns in the UNION table is the Foreign Key constraint 'Employee_FK00' referencing?|||I'm using MS SQL 2000...

What columns in the UNION table is the Foreign Key constraint 'Employee_FK00' referencing?

It is the Union# column.|||I think you have your foriegn key defined incorrectly. If you look at the error message, it is trying to find a parent record with matching column 'UnionName' instead of Union#.|||Actually, that is a error on my part, its not the 'UnionName', but the 'Union#'. I typed that wrong in my original statement. :(

I'm currently in the SQL Server enterprise design area on the tables, looking at the indexes/keys tabs, etc. I guess this is the area I need to play in to figure it out. Thanks!|||I also found this thread that deals with the same situation I think.. http://www.dbforums.com/t700898.html

I did upgrade from access 2000 to ms sql as well, if that messed something up - I dont know.

"An SQL error occured - 547 error: INSERT conflicted with column Foreign Key constraint 'Employee_FK00'. The conflict occured in database NAME, table 'Union', column 'UnionName'. "

I get this error aftering trying to add a new row in my .Net Winform i'm developing. Thanks!This might be because you are trying to inserting a detail record that expects a header record to exist in another table.

For example, say you are trying to insert 'Union_1' into column in a table (employee?), but that table has a constraint where 'Union_1' MUST exist in table union in column unionname. If 'Union_1' does not exist in union, it is not going to allow you to insert it into the other table.

BTW, Union is a keyword so I'd be careful with using it as a table name.

Select * from a
union
select * from b
