I can't seem to display boolean values in all the tables which have them.

Is there any known bug?

I tried setting various combination for the Format(1;0 or yes;no..)
but to no avail.
I set the data type to boolean. I am using jsp on MS SQL Server 2000

Maybe you can try a Checkbox as control?

I tried that but it still does not work!

MS SQL Server uses BIT instead of boolean. It can handle null values, but I am not using null. Is it configuration of the database in CCS? I set the boolean format to '1:0'.

Any help is REALLY appreciated.

I tried using TEXT as the data format(in CCS) for the 'bit' data type (in MS SQL Server 2000) and it works. The values are displayed as 'true' and 'false'

But I cannot add or edit. The error is below

Quote :
[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]Syntax error converting the nvarchar value 'true' to a column of data type bit.

Any ideas how to sovle this?

I am trying to work ard this problem by using a custom code. I have 2 controls, factoryName (text) and isValid (text in CCS, but bit in SQL Server)

I plan to use the BeforeExecuteInsert Event. I will check the 'text' isValid control from the record. If it is 'true', I will use 1 and if it is 'false', I will use 0.

JDBCConnection conn = JDBCConnectionFactory.getJDBCConnection("testDB");  
long factory = Utils.convertToLong(e.getRecord().getControl("factoryName").getValue()).longValue();  
  
  
if(("true".equals(e.getRecord().getControl("isValid").getValue())) || ("1".equals(e.getRecord().getControl("isValid").getValue())))   
{  
long isValid = Utils.convertToLong(1).longValue();  
} else  
{  
long isValid = Utils.convertToLong(0).longValue();  
}  
  
  String sql = "INSERT INTO factory VALUES "+                   
    conn.toSql(String.valueOf(factory),JDBCConnection.TEXT)+  
    "," + conn.toSql(String.valueOf(isValid),JDBCConnection.BOOLEAN);  
     
  conn.executeUpdate(sql);  
  e.getCommand().setSql(sql);

But the code does not compile. I got the below error

Quote :
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\work\Standalone\localhost\spc\database\factory_jsp.java:211: cannot resolve symbol

Tried using some printout debugging statements...but nothing is printed out.

Ok...can you sense my desperation?

:-D I finally got it working. But the solution is a little weird.

MS SQL Server 2000 data type 'bit' is actually Integer value of 1 or 0 (null is allowed).

Here is the weird part. To get it to work in CCS, you got to set your server setting's Boolean Format to 'true;false'. And for your grid, control etc, the value to the database must be set as 'true' and 'false'. Default or 1/0 does not work.

Not too sure why there is this contradiction....but hey...IT WORKS!!!!
