Build a T-SQL Calendar using SQL Function GetFullMonth on MS SQL Server

SQL Server t-sql developers or administrators can use the below user defined function in order to list the calendar dates within a month.
We can pass the date as a parameter to the t-sql calendar date function and list the sql dates which belongs to the month of the given parameter date value.
You can alter the following t-sql function code as you wish in order to your requirements. For example, you can only pass the month.
You can further alter the function to pass two date parameter values and list the calendar dates within the given sql date range instead of listing only dates in a given month. For this t-sql task you can use the dbo.DateTable function which is demonstrated at How to Create a Date Table or a SQL Server Calendar Table using CTE T-SQL Code titled article.
CREATE FUNCTION GetFullMonth
(
@d datetime
) RETURNS @days TABLE
(
[date] datetime,
[days] varchar(20)
)
BEGIN

DECLARE @d1 datetime, @d2 datetime, @d3 datetime

SELECT
@d1 = DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, 0, @d), 0),
@d2 = DATEADD(dd, -1, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, 0, @d) + 1, 0))

WHILE @d1 <= @d2
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @days SELECT @d1, DATENAME(DW, @d1)
SELECT @d1 = DATEADD(dd, 1, @d1)
END

RETURN

END
And the output of the dbo.GetFullMonth function can be seen with a sample t-sql SELECT statement as follows:
SELECT * FROM dbo.GetFullMonth('20080229')

Removing HTML Tags from Text Using SQL Server User-Defined Function

  Introduction: In this blog post, we'll explore how to create and use a SQL Server User-Defined Function (UDF) to remove HTML tags from a text string. This function can be handy when you need to extract plain text from HTML content stored in your database. Creating the Function: First, let's create the SQL Server UDF named udf_StripHTML . This function takes a VARCHAR(MAX) parameter @HTMLText , which represents the HTML content from which we want to remove the tags. It returns a VARCHAR(MAX) value, representing the text stripped of HTML tags. sql SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO  CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[udf_StripHTML] ( @HTMLText VARCHAR (MAX)) RETURNS VARCHAR (MAX) AS BEGIN DECLARE @Start INT   DECLARE @End INT   DECLARE @Length INT   SET @Start = CHARINDEX( '<' , @HTMLText )  SET @End = CHARINDEX( '>' , @HTMLText , CHARINDEX( '<' , @HTMLText ))  SET @Length = ( @End - @Start ) + 1   WHILE @Start > 0 AND @...

Using SSRS web services to render a report as a PDF

I have been looking around the net for some decent code which would explain how I could render a report, using SSRS 2008 web services as a PDF.   The need was to extract reports sitting on a SSRS 2008 server sitting on a NT domain on a trusted network, whereas my web server was sitting in a DMZ. Where the only communication allowed by the network admin was port 80. To do this you will need to use the SSRS2008   ReportExecution2005.asmx web service. This could be accesses using the following URL assuming your SSRS server was installed using the default settings. http://YourServerIP/reportserver/reportexecution2005.asmx?wsdl 1.        Create a user on your AD domain with the least amount of privileges (say ReportUser) 2.        Give this account browse access on the reporting server for the desired reports. 3.        To get this working in visual studio 2010 (I am using t...

Creating a Link Server to MYSQL from MSSQL

There might be situations where you need to apply CRUD  operations ( Create,   Read,   Update,   Delete ) on data residing in a MYSQL server database from SQL server. In order to do this you will need to create a link service from SQL server to MYSQL. The Steps are outlined below: Steps: 1. Install the MYSQL ODBC driver on the server with the MSSQL server installation. 2. Enter details for the MYSQL ODBC settings. 3. Create a link service to MYSQL using SSMS ( SQL Server Management Studio) 4. You will need an user account on the mysql server which can perform CRUD operations  along with enable remote connections to the MYSQL installation. (See Troubleshooting steps below) 4. Test the connection. Install MYSQL ODBC Driver  Download   (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/) and install the latest MYSQL ODBC driver from the MYSQL server site. Select the version which corresponds to your installation of MSSQL usually the 64bit version. Note This...
