UPDATETEXT with CHANGE_TRACKING ON

maschmasch Posts: 2
To update IMAGE-Columns SQL Data Compare uses UPDATETEXT, which causes an error (22113) in SQL Server 2008 when CHANGE_TRACKING is ON.

When I manually change the several statements (1 Update + n UPDATETEXT) into 1 UPDATE all is fine.

How can I tell SQL Data Compare to use 1 UPDATE instead of using several UPDATETEXT?

    Thank you for your post into the forum.

    A support call has been created for you, call reference is F0019875.

    Can you please supply a screen shot of the error and sent it to support@red-gate.com. Also please include the above call reference number in the subject field of the e-mail.

    I see from reading SQL Server Books On-Line Articles (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189466.aspx), that Microsoft plan to remove UPDATETEXT in a future version of SQL Server.

    Unfortunately you cannot configure SQL Data Compare to use UPDATE in preference to UPDATETEXT. However I will bring highlight this issue to the SQL Data Compare Development Team.

    Many Thanks

    Thank you for sending in the requested screen shot, which has made the problem you are experiencing much clearer.

    Unfortunately there is not a setting you can configure to force SQL Data Compare use '1 UPDATE' instead of 'UPDATETEXT'.

    I have created a new Bug Report for the SQL Data Compare Development Team to review. The reference for this bug report is SDC-897.

    Once I obtain further information I will update this forum post.

    Many Thanks
