You may receive an error message when you try to use SQL Server Management Studio to update a row of a table in SQL Server
This article helps you resolve the problem that occurs when you try to update a table by using SQL Server Management Studio in SQL Server.
Original product version: SQL Server
Original KB number: 925719
Symptoms
Consider the following scenario. You try to use SQL Server Management Studio to update a table in Microsoft SQL Server. In Object Explorer, you right-click the name of the table, and then you click Open Table. You update a row of the table. In this scenario, you may receive one of the following error messages unexpectedly in the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio dialog box:
-
Error message 1
Data has changed since the Results pane was last retrieved. Do you want to save your changes now?
(Optimistic Concurrency Control Error)
Click Yes to commit your changes to database anyway.
Click No to discard your change and retrieve the current data for this row.
Click Cancel to continue editing.
[!NOTE]
If you click Yes in this error message dialog box, the row is updated correctly. -
Error message 2
No row was updated.
The data in row X was not committed.
Error Source: Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataTools.
Error Message: The row value(s) updated or deleted either do not make the row unique or they alter multiple rows(N rows).
Correct the errors and retry or press ESC to cancel the change(s).
[!NOTE]
If you receive this message dialog box, you cannot update the row.
This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:
-
The table contains one or more columns of the text or ntext data type.
-
The value of one of these columns contains the following characters:
- Percent sign (%)
- Underscore (_)
- Left bracket ([)
-
The table does not contain a primary key.
[!NOTE]
This issue also occurs when you try to use Table Designer in Microsoft Visual Studio to update a table that is in a SQL Server database.
Cause
This issue occurs because SQL Server Management Studio generates an incorrect SQL statement for the update operation. When the table does not contain a primary key, the values of all columns are used to identify the row to update. When SQL Server Management Studio constructs this statement, the incorrect comparison operator (=) is used to compare columns of the text, ntext, or image data types.
Workaround
To work around this issue, create a new query window in SQL Server Management Studio. Then, run a SQL UPDATE statement to update the row in the table.
[!NOTE]
If you receive the first error message that is mentioned in the Symptoms section, you can click Yes to update the row.

UPDATE (Transact-SQL)
User reported issue that they can’t add data to a table using SSMS on SQL Server A. Error message is
No row was updated.
The data in row X was not committed.
Error Source: Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataTools.
Error Message: The updated row has changed or been deleted since
data was last retrieved.
Correct the errors and retry or press ESC to cancel the change(s).
I repeated the same error with SSMS on my laptop with SQL Server A. Behaviour appears to be across all databases on this SQL Server (2005 SP3 (9.00.4060) 64bit)). I can use my laptop’s SSMS to update tables on other several SQL Servers — even
test versions of the same databases on SQL Server A. Laptop’s SSMS is 9.00.4035.00 and .NET Framework is 2.0.50727.5448. Uninstalled and reinstalled and also applied SP1 for Visual Studio. Same problem.
I tried adding data to the table using SSMS on the actual SQL Server itself — same problem.
Found this KB but it doesn’t fit the scenario exactly — http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925719. But does indicate a bug in the TSQL generated by SSMS — could that be the problem? Why then not with the other SQL Servers?
Of course data can be added to the tables — INSERT query worked, Access project worked, and the front end applications themselves add and edit data all day. Just not through SSMS! I am stumped.
INSERT statement conflicts with the foreign key. I may be entering the foreign key incorrectly.
Error:
No row was updated.
The data in row 1 was not committed.
Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider.
Error Message: The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint «FK_Movie_Director». The conflict occurred in database table Director column Director ID.

Since You don’t have any data in director table you can’t perform entry to movie table(because of foreign key reference) so first enter some data into the director table then enter data into movie table
For more details you can refer to this link

Can you provide the executed insert query ? make sure that the value you are inserting into a column that references another table exists in that table. i.e in your example table, if you are inserting to a movie table the DirctorID should exist in the Director tale.

[RESOLVED] No row was updated. The data in row 1 was not committed.
Hi,
I am trying to manually edit a database in Visual Studios 2010! However, when I try to insert data into the table I receive the following error:
No row was updated.
The data in row 1 was not committed.
Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider.
Error Message: String or Binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.I have encountered this error a while ago but I have forgotten how I solved it.
Thanks,
Nightwalker

That typically means you’re trying to enter more data into a field that it can accept, e.g. 51 characters in to a varchar(50) field.The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter — Winston Churchill

Re: No row was updated. The data in row 1 was not committed.
Ah ok! Looking at a project that is alost identical but works the definition for the particular field which is causing problem is «nvarchar(1024)» however, in this table that particular field is set to «nvarchar(10)» definitely not big enough. However, if I try to make the change I receive the following error:
You cannot save changes that would result in one or more tables being re-created. You can override this behavior by changing your configuration options. Open the Tools menu, click Options. In the Options dialog box, expand the Database Tools node and click Table and Database Designers. You can clear the «Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation» then retry the save operation. The save might take a long time because the data in the tables must be copied to temporary tables.
Will try this and report back.
Edit:
Damn, there are only four node under Options, Environment, Projects and Solutions, Text Editor and Windows Forms Designer.

Re: No row was updated. The data in row 1 was not committed.
Are you looking in Management Studio? My Options dialog has a Designers node and I found the flag quite easily under there. If you can’t find the option you can always carry out the steps yourself manually. Copy all the data sideways into a new table, drop the existing table and recreate it exactly as it was before but with the one column redefined. Don’t forget that the table is more than just the data it contains, you want to make sure you recreate all the same indexes, triggers, constraints etc so make absolutely sure you know exactly what’s there before you do anything. Scripting the various elements for create will do alot of the work for you.
Be cautioned, though, that this isn’t something you should be doing lightly. What that message is telling you is that, in order to make that change, the DBMS (or you) is going to have to completely delete and recreate that table. If you get some catastrophic problem half way through that process you could get left in a right mess. So before you do anything TAKE A FULL BACKUP.

Management Studio? I am referring to the Tools, Options menu in Visual Studios.
Edit:
Forgot to uncheck the «Show all settings» check box! After that I was able to located the setting I was looking for under the «Table and Database Designers» node and «Table and Diagram Option». Unchecking the «Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation» check box and clicking «OK» solved the problem.

Re: [RESOLVED] No row was updated. The data in row 1 was not committed.
I’m getting this SQL Server error when I go to update a «text» field which only has a couple of hundred characters in it. How can this be? Can I safely just update the field type to «varchar(max)» without losing any data from that field?

You are better off starting your own thread the cause and solution to your problem is different from mine.

When trying to add data to a newly created column using SQL Server Management Studio (edit rows), I am getting the following error:
No row was updated.
The data in row 1 was not committed.
Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider.
Error Message: String or
binary data would be truncated.The statement has been terminated.
Correct the errors and retry or press
ESC to cancel the change(s).
The datatype for the column is nvarchar(150).
UPDATE:
I am inserting only a few ascii characters (example: abc).
This is someone else’s database who asked me to look into it… I discovered:
a) only some of the rows give this error
b) the rows giving this error have long strings in two other columns (one is a nvarchar(max), and one is ntext).

I’ve experienced this on occasions when a table had a mixture of ntext and nvarchar(MAX) datatypes. Changing all the ntexts to nvarchar(MAX)s fixes the problem.
answered May 28, 2014 at 9:16
This error typically occurs when you exceed the length of the data type for the column. Are you inserting more than 150 characters into the column?

I got this error when I mistakenly exceeded the number of characters that a field could hold. In Visual Studio, I had mistakenly inserted a field with its datatype as nvarchar(1) and was trying to save a word with 6 characters to that field. Once I changed to nvarchar(50), it worked fine. Hope this helps someone.

Usually this occurs when tried insert more symbols, what is given to this field.
go to Design, check the Data Type of field
for Example your Data Type = nvarchar(20) and your tried set the 30 characters

I encountered this error when trying to edit a row in a table that had even one field of type text. It still seems to be an issue even in SSMS 18 (in 2021).
