SQL Server :: Correct Syntax To Do A LIKE In VB.net?
Oct 12, 2010
I want to do a LIKE clause in an SQL statement. What is the proper syntax if this if my informaiton.I want to select personID, personName, personBuilding From Table: main27WHERE personName has the Name 'Smith' in it. Note that person Name is set up as: Last Name, First Name = Smith, John.The query works fine in my access database, but I am trying to put it in a VB.net application and I can't get it to pull any records when there are 18.
In my web.config, I have attached a SQL express database .. as follows: <add name="eHNDBConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:UsersDell-XPS1330DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesWebSite4eHNDB.mdf";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
I need to upload this to my web server so I need to remove the local link .. I tried:
.. but i keep getting this error message when i try to open the page that accesses the DB. An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file eHNDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
1- what is the correct syntax to use in my web.comfig?
2- when online, i'm gonna be using sql server and not sql express .. what considerations / changes should i apply as well?

I've created an Expression Web form with a SQL datasource which is doing a query/select statement.Somehow it appears that I'm making a syntax error. When I divide the query in two and execute them separate, it works fine.I need to filter for an EventType, Region and Today's date + a custom interval (like 7 day's for a week)he parameters come from a search form where the user can select these values via a dropdown list.The two separate (and working) queries within my form are:Query nr.1 :
"Select * from Events WHERE (([EventType] LIKE '%' + @EventType + '%') AND ([Region] LIKE '%' + @Region + '%'))"> <asp:formparameter DefaultValue="%" FormField="EventType" />
I am just not able to get the syntax right for the below code,
Dim HeaderCount As Integer = readerXML.HeaderCount() Dim NewTable As String NewTable = "CREATE TABLE " + tbCustomerFileName.Text + " (" + " RowId smallint" + " IDENTITY(1,1)" + " PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED," For I = 0 To [HeaderCount] NewTable = NewTable + readerXML.Item(I) + " DEFAULT 'New Position - title not formalized yet'," + " varchar(50) NOT NULL," Next [I] + ")" ...this part gives me an error ssaying incorrect syntax.
I am trying to upload an excel file and based on the number of headers in the file, I want to generate columns, however I am just not able to get this going because i am getting syntax error, the main problem being I am not able to put the brackets at the right place.

I am working with a sql server database with about 50 stored procedures. The database and stored procedureswere not created by me. The stored procedures all begin with a number in their name.
Example: 17P_Comsetter
The problem I am having is that if I try and execute the stored procedure at the command line in Query Analyzer,the query analyzer appears not to like that the stored procedure begins with a number. For example:
If I try an run the stored procedure as follows:
EXEC 17P_Comsetter
Then I get the following error message:
Msg 102, ..... Incorrect Syntax near '17'

For reporting we used report RDLCs and displayed using an ASPX form. We implemented using the route as shown below. This resulted in forcing us to use the page route below and also to use the hyperlink instead of the normal Action Link. The question is how do we convert the asp:hyperlink ASPX syntax to Razor syntax.

I have a UDF called Split which accepts a comma separated list and returns a table variable splitting the values in a row. So for ex if I call the function

ID-----Value 1------100 2------287 3------312
