I know it may not be good design standards, but SQL7 can handle
database names that have embedded spaces just fine, you just need to
enclose the database name in square brackets. But can TEXTCOPY handle
spaces in the database name?
I first tried something like:
TEXTCOPY /S server /U sa /P password /D mydatabase /t [table name]
/C columnname /W "where id = 1" /F file.txt /O
Ultimate goal here is to extract the text contents from the column
columnname and write it to a file called file.txt. But the command
puked on the square brackets. I tried the same command structured like
this:
TEXTCOPY /S server /U sa /P password /D mydatabase /t "table name"
/C columnname /W "where id = 1" /F file.txt /O
But it didn't like that either. Any suggestions? I ended up renaming
the table to a table name without any spaces, like table_name, but I
would rather have not solved the situation in that manner. 1 3526

I think you need "[table name]". The "" are needed to get CMD.EXE to
understand that this is one argument, not two. And then you need the
brackets to make T-SQL happy.

Missing Help Files
When I enter "recordset" as the keyword and search the Visual Basic Help index,
I get many topics of interest in the resulting list. But there isn't any
information available from clicking on many of the available topics (mostly
methods but some properties are also unavailable). This same problem occurs
with many, if not most, keywords.
Is there any way I can activate these "missing" help topics? HELP!

Hi everyone
I have a system running on a 2 server environment. One server has the internal database (SQL SERVER 2000 with an MSAccess front end on the clients) and is not open to the internet. The other is just a web server, runs IIS6 and can communicate with SQL Server on the other box only - no direct access to files or anything else due to firewalls.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
