how do I go about inserting into a database special characters such as the uppercase O, umlaut Ö Please understand that I have been able to insert the special character from inside MMS by putting an N in front of the value but when I run the SQL file from inside an ASP.net 4.0 page it comes up as a diamond with a question mark in it
View 12 RepliesI am having problems with the following update query that is part of an SQL Datasource. This query was automatically generated by VS2008 and I have formatted it so that it is easier to read.
UPDATE tblowner
SET altownerid = @AltOwnerID,
name = @Name,
address = @Address,
phyadd = @PhyAdd,
phone = @Phone,
fax = @Fax,
cellphone = @CellPhone,
email = @Email,
COMMENT = @Comment,
attention = @Attention,
contact = @Contact,
ownerdesc = @OwnerDesc,
taxid = @TaxID,
financialcontact = @FinancialContact,
fyenddate = @FYEndDate,
firstname = @FirstName,
lastname = @LastName,
stampinit = @StampInit,
stampdate = @StampDate,
zipid = @ZIPID,
[ZIP+4] = @N'@[ZIP+4]'
WHERE ( ownerid = @original_OwnerID )
Everything works but the [ZIP+4] field which does not update. I believe that VS2008 added the square brackets around the field name because of the plus character that it contains. If I change the ZIP+4 variable name to [ZIP+4] = @ZIP4 it still does not work. This brings up another question, I have never understood where these update queries are getting their data from.
I am facing a problem with retrieving an image and showing it on asp.net grid. I migrated MS Access database to sql server. Image are visible in Crystal report when fetched from the same database (migrated sql server database). But same images are not visible in ASP.Net grid view or simple asp.net image control. Following is my code
SqlConnection oConn =
new
SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["csr"].ToString());
oConn.Open();
SqlCommand oraCmd = oConn.CreateCommand();
oraCmd.CommandText = "select top 1 photo from [test] where photo is not null";
SqlDataReader dr =
null;
dr = oraCmd .ExecuteReader ();
if(dr.Read ())
if (dr["photo"] !=
null)
{
Response.ContentType = "image/gif";
Response.BinaryWrite((byte[])dr["photo"]);
}
This function is getting called from another page . "hlopen" is hyper link in the grid. hlopen.NavigateUrl = "GetPhoto.aspx?id=1";

View 4 RepliesI have an asp.net / C# page which takes a comment, and then emails that comment. Sometimes when the user enters "&" in the comment, the comment is being truncated. So for example if the comment is "test & test" the email only sends out "test ".

View 1 RepliesI've got a program that in a nutshell reads values from a SQL database and writes them to a tab-delimited text file.
The issue is that some of the values in the database have special characters (TM, dash, ellipsis, etc.) When written to the text file, the formatting is lost and they come across as junk "â„ or â€" etc"
When the value is viewed in the immediate window, before it is written to the txt file, everything looks fine. My guess is that this is an issue of encoding. But, I'm not real sure how to proceed, where to look, or what to look for.
Is this ASCII or UTF-8? If it's one of those how do I correct it before it's written to the text file.
Here's how I build the text file (where feedStr is a StringBuilder)
objReader = New StreamWriter(filePath)
objReader.Write(feedStr)
objReader.Close()
I'm fairly new to ASP.NET and have the following problem:
I add data to an Access database through a form on a aspx.-page. Now my problem is, if the user enters characters like " or & the syntax of the SQL command i send to access changes and the whole thing crashes. :-(
It should nevertheless be possible to write special characters in the Access database. How can I do that??

I'd like to put them all in one group called "SP". Is there a way to do that?

buildLetter.Append("</head>").AppendLine();
buildLetter.Append("").AppendLine();

Assume the above contents resides in a file. I want to write a snippet that removes any line which has empty string "" and put escape character before the middle quotations. The final output would be:
buildLetter.Append("</head>").AppendLine();
buildLetter.Append("<style type="text/css">").AppendLine();
The outer " .... " is not considered special chars. The special chars may be single quotation or double quotation. I could run it via find and replace feature of Visual Studio. However, in my case i want it to be written in c# or VB.NET
I have a requirment to filter out all users in the database by starting letter. so we will be having link buttons for A B C D E..... Z.

In terms of filtering UTF characters, is there no way to set it up so that all 'A' (i.e. Ä, Á etc.) characters are assigned to A (i.e. some way of grouping together in an "if else" kind of rule)?
