Ok! Thank you for responding. All I can say for example column1 will hold Gender, Column2 will hold Age, column3 will hold say Position"
Initially, I have:
Column
Row 12345
And like I said all I want is a procedure or a way of having it like this:
Gender Age Position Class
Row 1 23 4 5
I hope this time I have made it clear.
Thanks once again!!

For that you can use,
insert into tableName(gender,age, position, class) values (1,23,4,5)
Why do you want to separate it, when you can do it easily with the way above?

It looks like you do not understand. What I am saying is that my dataset is in this form: Column(Data)
Row 12345
which is (Gender age position and class concatenated together).
that is I have in a cell column a data in that form and all I want to do is to separate the contents of the column(Data) to separate that and have
Gender Age Position Class
Row 1 23 4 5
I think now it makes more sense.
The insert statement I have used it many times and have no problem with that.

 Is the problem solved? What I'm saying is you don't need to save the data in 1 column, if you have gender, save it in the gender column, etc. You're just making trouble for your self. I hope, I didn't miss understood you.

Thanks Yulianto. I will try not to create trouble for myself. The reson why I had that kind of a situation is that, I used a scanner to capture data , so in my questionnaire design, I had group the variables like that so as not to crowd the questionnaire.
Thank you

Can you show me a line of code whereby if I have data stored in as 1,2,3,4 and I want to read data set, when I find "," I put it in a next clolumn. Sy, when read a data set 1 when i find "," i put 1 in the next column.

Are you going to save from the data set? I don't get it.

I will read that data from a table and then save it to another table. I think the code that you are going to show me, I will create a stored procedure and then run it to save it to another table.
I think, I have made my point clear.
thank

You're stil making trouble for your self.
Anyway, use PATINDEX, to get the string between comma.
If your string 'a,b,c' then, the first PATINDEX will get 'a', the second will get 'b', and so on. Then you can update/copy the field using the value you got.
Here's the basic code:
declare @name varchar(15)
set @name='agf,b,c'
select substring(@name,1,patindex('%,%',@name)-1)

Hi,
I'm new to programming (C#) and I can't find a sample of OleDb Transactions that can rollback BOTH ExecuteNonQuery() and myDataAdapter.Update all in one try/catch statement.
I found this link that shows the ExecuteNonQuery...
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/h8459s0c(en-us,vs.80).aspx
Is it possible to have both ExecuteNonQuery and DataAdapter.Update in the same rollback transaction?
thanks,
Ron

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to write a few lines into a csv file from a sql package. One thing I have to make sure is that the csv file doesn't end with a blank line. That is, I have to delete all new line and return feed from the end of the file. I've tried:
fileOut := utl_file.fopen('xxx', 'yyy', 'W', 32760);
utl_file.put_line(fileout, 'line 1' || Chr(13));
utl_file.put(fileout, 'line 2');
utl_file.fclose(fileOut);
But when I open the csv file created, there's always a blank line at the end of the file. It seems like a blank line is always being appended to the end of the file automatically on file close. Is this true? And are there any ways of avoiding this through sql?
Thanks

I created an address book with a login dialog box. It works fine. Now I would like to change the password and or user id. How can I do that?

Magic.
For a better answer, you'll need to tell us how you created your login box in the first place. Given that you're in the SQL forum, I'm hoping you have a database with a table of usernames and passwords. If that is so, I'd have thought all you need to do is add to this table.

Depends on what you mean by edit. He needs to add a row if he wants to add a new user, assuming everything is set up decently.
However, if you regard adding a row as editing, and adding a column as adding, then you'd be right.

By editing/ updating the record/row.

OK - you've got me. He needs to change a row, and I'm an idiot.
I missed the 'or'. One has to hope he doesn't intend on only having one user, but changing the details from time to time.
