I know a little about SQL injections and URL decode, but can someone who's more of an expert than me on this matter take a look at the following string and tell me what exactly it's trying to do?
Some kid from Beijing a couple weeks ago tried a number of injections like the one below.
%27%20and%20char(124)%2Buser%2Bchar(124)=0%20and%20%27%27=%27
I have a SQL table it has more than 1000000 rows, and I need to select with the query as you can see below:
SELECT DISTINCT TOP (200) COUNT(1) AS COUNT, KEYWORD
FROM QUERIES WITH(NOLOCK)
WHERE KEYWORD LIKE '%Something%'
GROUP BY KEYWORD ORDER BY 'COUNT' DESC
Could you please tell me how can I optimize it to speed up the execution process? Thank you for useful answers.

Hello,
We have observed that there seems to be a maximum number of ids/variables which one can pass in the IN clause of SQL as comma seperated values. To avoid this we are storing all the ids in a table and doing a SELECT within the IN clause. This however means extra database operations to store and retrieve ids. Is there any other way to use IN without SELECT?

How to find out the last date and timestamp of schema updation in SQL Server database. I could locate the database created and last back up date from properties. But, couldn't find the last schema updated date. Is there a way to find this out?
I'm learning how to use SQL Server Management Studio and can't figure out how to insert a new row into a table.
Table Structure:
ID,
Field1,
Field2
Query:
INSERT INTO Table (Field1,Field2) VALUES(1,2)
Error:
Major Error 0x80040E14, Minor Error 25503
I'm probably missing something very noobie like. Any help would be appreciated.
how to
compare the values of same table(say for eg: Order table) each and every time the record get inserted ,
if the record with same values get inserted already in same table i should not insert the new record with same values. how to do that exactly in sql server 2008
Is there any way showing the detailed exception for String or binary data would be truncated.
I use LINQ to SQL and i cant figure out which column is that!?
Tried numerous things but i get the same meaningless error i got from within Visual Studio.
Also I use .NET 3.5 SP1, but errors are still returned useless.
I was wondering if it's possible to do something like this (which doesn't work):
select cast( (exists(select * from theTable where theColumn like 'theValue%') as bit)
Seems like it should be doable, but lots of things that should work in SQL don't ;) I've seen workarounds for this (SELECT 1 where... Exists...) but it seems like I should be able to just cast the result of the exists function as a bit and be done with it.
Does closing a java.sql.Connection also close all the statements, prepared statements, etc. obtained from that connection? Or is there going to be memory leak if I close the connection but leave the statements, etc. unclosed?
Hello Everybody,
I've got a question regarding a SQL-select-query:
The table contains several columns, one of which is an Integer-column called "size" - the task I'm trying to perform is query the table for the sum of all rows (their values), or to be more exact get a artifical column in my ResultSet called "overallSize" which contains the sum of all "size"-values in the table. Preferable it would be possible to use a WHERE-clause to add only certain values ("WHERE bla = 5" or something similar).
The DB-engine is HSQLDB (HyperSQL), which is compliant to SQL2008.
Thank you in advance :)
I am trying to output a long XML result from SMSS.
When I right click on the results and 'save results as...', I can only get a 2mb file?
I have changed the settings in SMSS via Tools - Options - Query Results - SQL Server - Results to Grid, for XML data to be unlimited.
Forever, it still seems to be truncating my XML results?
So, how can I bypass this problem and output my XML result to a file?
Thanks
E.g.
Declare @str varchar2(20)
Set @str = 'A Student'
Select Reverse(@str)
Output:
tnedutS A
Expected being:
Student A
The output(using Reverse) is as expected. But my requirement is the one described.
Help needed with SET BASED.

What is a candidate row when talking about Oracle and SQL? Using it in a sentence would be as such:
"The candidate row is fetched from the table specified in the outer query."
Hi all, i want to ask about development in blackberry. I have background in .Net winform.
If i want to develop an application to show data from Ms.SQL server 2008 database in blackberry. what should i learn and what should i do ? thank you for your advice.
This simple query throws the "Ambiguous column name TaskID" error on one db-server only. This is ridiculous. We tested this with the same database structure on different servers and different versions of ms sql (2005/2008), and it's only THIS particular client's server that throws the error. I'm actually frustrated.
SELECT Tasks.TaskID
FROM Tasks
INNER JOIN TaskHelpers ON TaskHelpers.TaskID = Tasks.TaskID
order by TaskID
Yes, I know I can put "Tasks.TaskID" into the order by clause, but for some reasons I can't.
Hi,
I have an SQL query that returns an amount of tuples (about 50).
Now I need to display the results, 15 tuples at a time, then I will have a "view more" button to view the next 15 results.
Can you please help me how I can make this? The issue is that I cannot use the 'limits' because each time I run the query the results will be different, hence when pressing view more, I may get the same results of the same page.
thanks

I am getting a SqlConnection does not support parallel transactions. exception and this answer mentions its when a connection tries to open two transactions. This is exactly what i am doing. I thought nested transactions were ok (i was using sqlite for the prototype).
How do i check if the connection is already in a transaction? I am using Microsoft SQL Server Database File.
I store an XML string in a column in my SQL Server database. I'm trying to run an UPDATE statement that will make a certain field into Upper Case. I can do that easily during a SELECT but can't get it to work with an update.
This SELECT statement works
select Upper(XmlTest.value('(/CodeFiveReport/Owner/@UnitNumber)[1]', 'varchar(10)')) as UnitNumber
from uploadreport
But I want to update it the XML as that permanently
Update table Set XmlString.Modify('replace value of (/Root/Node/@Field)[1] with ?
