@mycroftholmes can u plzz write query for me to retrive data from diffrent tables on a single pages.
|
|
|
|

Nope, I have better things to do that your work.
[edit]
I relent
Select * from TableName
there you go, just replace tableName with the table name.

how to insert mathematical symbols like integration diffrenciaton symbols in database.so that it can be redable in .netframework when it is retrived from databse
|
|
|
|

You have not indicated what database and version you use. In simple terms, you've to use a collation that supports unicode characters. For SQL Server, this[^] will be a starting point.

shameel thanks for replying actually iam using sql server 2005 and sql database and i want to know how to insert signs of inegration, diffrenciation and limits in database....
|

Same answer still applies.
1. It depends on what you 'mean' by "symbol"
2. If and only if the answer to 1 means that unicode is suitable then you have the following choices
a. Set up the database to accept unicode.
b. Encode the data into the character set that the database does support (probably to base64) and live with the fact that you won't see the characters in the database itself - you will need to use your application.

@jschell by symbol i excatly means what we use in maths i mean symbol to represent inegration and diffrenciation i hope u can understand what i mean to say..
|

I understand what a mathematical symbol in mathematics means.
However that has nothing to do with how you represent the idea on a computer.
For example I could use a paint program to create a formula and then store it in a database.
Or, as I suggested, unicode has mathematical representations.
There are other possibilities.
It is up to you, based on your business needs, to first determine the form (the data on the computer) that your representation will take.

Can you post an example? Show us what it is that you want to store, 'cause as it is, you won't get much valuable answers.
All text-encodings are supported. No, text does not support all math. So, how are your users going to represent their content?
MathML[^] would be a good choice, and you can store it in a VARCHAR column.

I agree with Eddy. You don't need to store the actual symbols in the database (although you can if it makes sense). The symbols are more a matter of UI.
I second using XML or similar to persist the concept of the expression.

I'm interacting with a dBase III file using Microsoft's ODBC dBase driver. I can create a CRecordset object and iterate through the table just fine (populating controls on a dialog and such). When I went to count the rows/records in the table using SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ACTY, the code kept throwing exceptions. Based on the error messages in the debug window, I suspected column 1 (type Date) was at fault. I managed to insert another column into the table of type Text (Numeric type also works). The COUNTing code now works fine. My question is, why? I could iterate the table just fine when the first column was a Date, but not count the rows. Is there a rule that states what types can be in the first column and what types cannot when counting? As there are hundreds of these database files in use, injecting a "dummy" column into them just for the sake of counting is not a solution.
[edit]
I was able to create a dBase 5 table and it exhibited the same behavior. When I added the extra column, however, no exceptions and counting worked fine.
[/edit]
[edit2]
I was able to successfully count records in the table using the ODBC API (e.g., SQLDriverConnect(), SQLExecDirect(), SQLGetData()) rather than CDatabase and CRecordset.

I'm surprised at your findings. The COUNT function shouldn't care what columns are on the table or what datatype they're made of. May be a bug with the driver?
If I were you, I would suspected that USER was a keyword and would have tried to rename the table and see if it worked instead of adding a new column.

I'm not familar enough with it one way or the other. If you step through the code, however, the columns are definitely being bound (in the set's DoFieldExchange() method).

There are actually two tables: ACTY and USER. The USER table works fine with no changes, both iterating and counting.

I do hope that you have a copy of that database is a more recent format?

If I can't operate on it directly, I will consider converting it. Given the constraints on the client side, that would be a last resort.

I suggest you use Microsoft Visual Foxpro ODBC Driver[^]. It has full compatility with other xBase product (including dBase III+), it is newer, and it has much better handling with SQL queries.

I'm working on a WPF app that has user profiles. The profile contains the user's picture. Any reason not to store the image in the Profiles table?
Never done this before. Suggestions/comments appreciated.
Thanks

I don't have any; that's what I'd do. If you're not already, you may want to resize the images to some standard before doing so.

Ok, thanks

If you were working on a webapp, then it'd be sweeter to have them on the server directly so that the browser can cache them.
Outside of that environment, I prefer to store those things in the database. That way you can backup all the data that belongs together in a single document.

Actually, I'm working on an app thay will have WPF, WinPhone, and Web UI's, so maybe storing them on the server is best.

The problem I have with that is if someone replaces a file with one you don't expect.

What does that have to do with how they are stored?

The file system is less secure.

I doubt that is relevant in a system that needs to be secure.
If one does nothing but assume that a database is "more" secure than a file system with no other concern for security then they will have problems. And one a real security policy in place any real differences in implementation of systems at this level becomes much less significant allowing one the freedom to base decisions on other business needs.
