String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated.

While inserting or updating data into SQL table one may get exception like “String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated.”

Reason:
This exception occurs when length of your DB column data type is less as compared to value entered by user.
For example: You have one Email field with data type as Nvarchar(20) in Employee table, and user try to enter testuseremail@testemail.com in this email field, if you see email entered by user is of 27 characters which exceeds DB column value and user will get this error.

Solution:
To solve this error change the size of your DB field, i.e. in above scenario we need to increase the size of Email field, change it to Nvarchar(50) and you’ll see error is gone.

C#: Merging Excel cells with NPOI HSSFWorkbook

In this post we’ll see how to merge the two or more cell with each other while creating the excel sheet using NPOI . Mentioned below is code to merge multiple cells, in this example we are merging first cell to fifth cell of first row (you can adjust row or cell range by passing particular parameters in CellRangeAddress). //Created new Workbook var hwb = new NPOI.HSSF.UserModel. HSSFWorkbook (); //Create worksheet with name. var sheet = hwb.CreateSheet( "new sheet" ); //Create row and cell. var row = sheet.CreateRow(0); var cell = row.CreateCell(0); ; //Set text inside cell cell.SetCellValue( "This is Merged cell" ); cell.CellStyle.WrapText = true ; //define cell range address // parameters: -> first row to last and first cell to last cell var cra = new NPOI.SS.Util. CellRangeAddress (0, 0, 0, 4); //Add merged region to sheet. sheet.AddMergedRegion(cra); Hope this solution helps you J
