so last week i finally downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005, and along with that, i downloaded Studio Express (i had previoulsy been using MSDE with WinSQL by Synametrics)
anyhow, today i got an alert from google (you guys use those, right?) that there's a free copy of something called SQL Prompt available from Red Gate
i tried it, and i like it!!

hi everyone, trying to make updates to a news area on a website through an update form.
have a table (news) with one row (news).
the record set displays correctly in my update form in a browser. after changing content and clicking update however, error displayed:
You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'WHERE news ='contents for news area'' at line 1
corresponding code:
if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "newsForm")) {
$updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE news WHERE news =%s",
GetSQLValueString($_POST['news'], "text"));
have tried multiple variations of the sql command. my question is do i have to add a row such as news_id and reference this as a primary key in order to use the UPDATE command? I have tried to do this but perhaps I should keep trying with that rather than with a single-row database. . .
it's just unclear where i should be looking. thanks anyone for your advice.

I have an mySQL database with the news.
I havn't found any thread with this topic...

Hi,
I'm building a straightforward-ish news site. Currently, the story details (e.g. headline, description, author, date) are stored in a SQL DB. The news is categorised and the category details are also stored in an SQL table.
However - what is the best way to store the actual news article?
At the moment, when the user enters a story, they input the details and article text. The details are saved in the DB and the text is saved as an XML file with filename corresponding to the article DB primary key. When the story is "read" the app pulls the details from the DB and loads up the appropriate XML file from disk.
For various reasons, I need to keep the article stored as XML, either in a file or in the DB. The DB provides for faster sorting and retrieval, and I don't want to store large amounts of data (i.e. the article itself) in the DB if avoidable.
I guess there are a few ways to do it -
1. Store details in DB and article as XML file.2. Store details and article in same DB table3. Store details in one DB table and articles in another
I would imagine that 3 would be the best, but would there be a performance hit? What is the maximum size of field (i.e. article size) I can have in a table?
Cheers
Graham Wilson.
I have read an article about Reporting Services that was rather critical regarding a number of topics. But, this article was from 2005 and I assume that there have been some improvements in Reporting Services since then. Or?
If so, are there any good places where you can find the news? I haven€™t been able to find a good site for news in, in this case, Reporting Services.
Hello all,
I have been reading these forums for a while but I am now a new member and relatively new to SQL (< 1 year exp).
In a project that I am currently working on I would like to include information related to current market news. An example would be news updates for certain companies that are generated from the Wall Street Journal or MarketWatch. The application would only be used internally and information would only be shared within the organization.
What I'd like to find out is:
Has anyone else worked with or developed something like this? If so, can you please share some insight.Would I need to purchase a Corproate License to use this information or would a personal account that can access the information be enough?What would be the best way to feed the database with this information? E-mails to the server, SSIS, etc.
Thank you for your help and I look forward to learning from you insight and experience.
Hello..
I want to upgrade my website to asp.net 2.0 and I want to add a Daily news to website.and 10 to 15 news will be added daily , so after a year we have almost 4000 entry in the database.
For designing this DB what is your advice on how to store news in database?Is it better to create same tables for each year ? for exampletblNews_2005tblNews_2006
Or just to make one table and have all news stored in that ? its gonna be huge after years , isnt that make any problems?
ThanksRegards.
Hi,
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
Thanks for any help,

Hi!
I did:
alter database mydb set single_user with rollback immediate;
exec sp_detach_db @dbname='mydb', @keepfulltextindexfile='true';
then I tried to copy files to new location on other drives, same server but got
>>Cannot copy <myfile>: Access is denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use<<
I also tried rename of file without success.
I also tried with db service stoppet (not preferred) without success.
How to find out, which process locks the files?
Best regards
What is the sql code to prompt for a value?
Can I do this in query analyzer or do I have to send the value from some other application?
HI,
I have a need where SQL Server should prompt me for a value when I run a Select statement.
Eg:
If I need the name of an employee by id number, SQL server should prompt me to enter a value for the ID when I run the statement like:
SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id=[Enter ID]
In oracle, it is possible by using "&" operator but I am not sure how it can be done in SQL Server. Is there any other way to get the prompts if not by the above method.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Sravan.

I have a Microsoft SQL server that is setup, and inside it is a job. Inside the job is a bunch of lines of transact sql statements.
I would like to be able to start the job from the command prompt. Moreover, I do not want to have to create new files or modify anything that is existing. I just want to be able to have it set up so that a new user who installs the server and all of the job on their machine fresh, can just punch in the command to run the job.
I know I can copy the transact sql statements from the job, and run them through the command prompt, but that would be a poor way to do it, because if the statements in the job were ever modified, with this task being automated, the command prompt statements would be out of date.
So I just need a way to start the existing job from the command prompt. Is this possible? Maybe with OSQL?
Please let me know how to install sql server by using command prompt.
