DataSource Controls :: SQL2005 - Constraints On Multiple Columns
Mar 15, 2010
how I add multi-column constraint to a table in SQL2005 ?
I want to prevent a user from entering a row in the table where Column_A = 1, Column_B = 2 etc where there is already a row where Column_A = 1, Column_B = 2.
I have to detect the "," (the coma character in the above field that contain address informatiom) in order to to be able to break and transfer the information into 3 independent fields
I want to be able to insert any kind of text into a sql 2005 database. The column im using to store this is ofVARCHAR(MAX) type . Basically , even if the text contains special charectars or unicode content or html tags I should still be able to insert it into the database without any errors. Please guide me on how to achieve this.Things I tried that did not work !- changed the column to type NVARCHAR(MAX)-Tried Server.HTMLencode for the column that accepts the textIs regex a solution for this problem. If so how can i implement it?
I have a multi- statement transcation in my stored procedure, that is either inserting or updating records in table1 and table2.
table1 has a check constraint. Will the check constraint be checked only after I call COMMIT in above transaction, OR will it be checked before I call COMMIT when using INSERT or UPDATE statement?
is there a SQL statment i could write that would sum each column and allow me to then access each sum individually
i.e
Dim objCmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand("SELECT SUM(expression) FROM orderForm WHERE OrderDate=@OrderDate", objConn)
is there anything i can replace expression with such that all the columns in orderForm could be summed and returned as one record
or is there a way to replace expression with something that would allow me to just keep changing the paramater so i could continuously reexectute the same command w/o having to create a new command for each column

This question is for wrapping up work on a database driven AJAX AutoComplete Control that I am using to provide keyword hints to user on search pages. Each record has 6 columns for keywords where each column is for an advertiser to add a keyword. These are used in meta keywords tags, but I also want to use them for AutoComplete. The problem is that I don't know how to write a SELECT statement in Visual Studio that treats all 6 keyword columns as if they were all one column. I am looking for something like
SELECT (keyword1 + keyword2 + keyword3) AS Keywords FROM (Merchandise) WHERE Keywords LIKE @term
The only other thing I can think of the gain this level of functionality would be to combine them into a new table.
