No, you really don't. Excel is the devil's workshop.

I prefer to generate XML, it's more flexible. It can also be converted to CSV which Excel can read.

Do I need a license to deploy SQL CE to my CE devices for commercial use? I heard it's free but am not sure about it.

Best,

Why!
What a horrendous design, and it comes back to why would someone saddle themselves with such a nightmare!

You need to do as the error suggested, add a notifyicon to your service that will live in the tray, this is the path to a UI, services do not have a UI!

If this structure is now suitable please suggest me something different. I need to fire a alarm when the data row inserted to the particular sql table.

Where is the alarm going to be consumed, on the server!

Why not have a trigger spit send an email via sql mail or write an app that send a text message. Most orgs either lock down the table so only authorised people have access or use email alerts.

Parameter Sniffing

This is not a question!

I got caught by the parameter sniffing[^] issue the other day, it was a classic, I had built a proc that takes in 2 parameters, applies then against a bunch of tables and inserts the results into a table variable to return a summary of the current periods processing status.

It worked perfectly during development, ran like a dream (<10sec) during the first round of UAT. Then it spat the dummy and I was getting a timeout from the service, the procedure ran perfectly from SSMS but from the client it just refused to returned a result.

3 hours later having exhausted all probabilities the little bulb clicked, USE LOCAL VARIABLES. I was applying the parameters multiple times to different tables, by changing to a pair of local variables this fixed the problem, classic case of parameter sniffing.

Hi,

I am having an issue with the selection list, which does not allow a selection of more than 1000 rows.

Like if I am trying to select more than 1000 rows, maybe the customer numbers, it does not allow more than 1000 rows. It comes back with this error message,
SQL Error: ORA-01795: maximum number of expressions in a list is 1000 .

I tried increasing the SQL array fetch size, and also increase the fetch size on the property window of SQL Developer but with no luck.

any help is much appreciate.

I need to update 4 million rows.

Thanks!!!

I don't think it is related to the row count.

Google the error message and you will find numerous descriptions and workarounds.

I bet you are building your query like this ...

SQL

select xx from myTable where ID in (val1,val2,val3)

The problem is that Oracle has a limit of 1000 values in their "in" clause. For example you can not have val1,val2,...val1001, Oracle will throw an error.

You need to restructure your "where" clause.

A possible solution would be to create a temp table and insert those selected values into the table, then do a join to the temp table.

Somthing just doesn't sound right if you are selecting 4 million rows, but you haven't give much information on the problem. Maybe more info will lead to a better solution.

Good luck. Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

vanikanc11-Jul-12 3:01

Not selecting but updating a value on 4 million rows.

Anyways, it is a limitation on the sql "in" clause select. You cannot have more than 1000 lines in a sql select.

I will store the data in temp table and join to it.

My bad for not seeing that you are updating, not selecting. Oops.

Good to know that you have a solution.
