Hi,
I was wondering if there is any way I can place a new line inside a query...
e.g.
select field1 + 'NEWLINE' + field2 from tablename
I want to place a new line between field1 and field2
Thanks in advanceselect field1 + char(13) + field2 from tablename|||Thanks for reply blindman
I have tried this already but it doesn't work :(
any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks|||It works in query analyzer. What are you looking at the results in?
select 'a' + char(13) + 'b'|||I am using MSSQL 2005 Server Management Studio which replaces both the SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager and the Query Analyzer.
Thanks|||Odd. It still works for me.
select 'a' + char(13) + 'b'
--
a
b
(1 row(s) affected)|||Actually It works on the text mode result but not Grid mode ...still it doesn't save a and b on different lines in the database itself not sure why
Once I fetch the record it displays it on a single line...
On my other fields where I am saving text from my .net application textboxes it creates double boxes for a newline... I was wondering how would I create thoes double boxes :)|||Ahh, the grid is saving the carriage return, but it displays as a blank in grid mode.
-- Using Northwind
DECLARE @.MyText CHAR(26)
DECLARE @.MyText2 CHAR(26)
SET @.MyText = 'a' + char(13) + 'b'
PRINT @.MyText
SELECT ShipCity
FROM Orders
WHERE OrderID = 10248
UPDATE Orders
SET ShipCity = @.MyText
WHERE OrderID = 10248
SET @.MyText2 = (SELECT ShipCity
FROM Orders
WHERE OrderID = 10248)
PRINT @.MyText2
SELECT ShipCity
FROM Orders
WHERE OrderID = 10248
UPDATE Orders
SET ShipCity = 'Reims'
WHERE OrderID = 10248
Run this in text mode and you will see that the newline is saved.
Run this in grid mode and you will see that the newline is converted.
I hope this helps,|||Still it will show a one straight line when fetching that data ....what I am thinking now is create a tiny function in .net and add new lines there it did worked for my other data before....
"thank you all for the help guys this forum ROCKS :)"|||Why are you concerned with how it looks in Management Studio? Neither Management Studio or Query Analyzer is meant to be used as a user interface or reporting tool.
