Basic SQL Server Question
Jul 20, 2005
After creating database in SQL Server , it generates .mdf , .ndf
datafiles .
Generally if we get those datafiles then we can create the database
with tables/data on another machine by using those datafiles.
I want to know, if we can we protect this? I don't want another user
to take those files and create database on another SQL Server. Is
there any option available in SQL server while creating database to
protect this file with password or any darn thing for protection that
would not allow to create the database by using those file or any
workaround.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
I'm new to SQL server so I hope somebody is willing to lend a hand...
I installed the server without a problem, and the service is showing as running OK.
However, when I open SQL enterprise manager, no server names can be selected.
But, when i go in via DOS and enter
SELECT @@SERVERNAME
GO
I get the correct name back - "andrewp"
I don't understand how I cannot connect to the server via Enterprise Manager...
I'm running on NT4.0 Workstation, SQL server 6.5, if that makes a difference.
Thanks for any help you can give,
Andy

My site is hosted by Fasthosts(.co.uk), which means I cannot put an MS SQL database on my site: they don't support that sort of thing. I have to pay for a seperate SQL database on a seperate server (also hosted by fasthosts). They have given me an IP, a server name, a database name, login and password. They tell me that the server require SQL authentication. I have managed to contect to the database using MS VWD 2005 through the database explorer. I cannot however make changes to the database. I have therefore downloaded SQL Server Management Express. This is where I am stuck. I can't seem to get the software to find my database. One thing I have tried is i've set up a database on my system and then run replication. When I do this I get stuch at to the "enter the name of the computer running IIS" part of the wizard, I've tried entering in the IP of the server and the ip of my website. I have also tried connecting to the database direct (not using replication) but this fails when it tries, despite all the combinations of IP, server name and database name I try! Any ideas?

I'm new to using SQL server and have a few setup questions.
I'm setting up a database for the company I work for. Should I setup a different database for each division in our company (e.g. accounting, project management, estimating, etc.), or should I use just one database? It seems like it would be easier to use one database so I only have to use one connection, but is this ideal? I want all the info from the different divisions to be used together, but at this point I'm confused as to how to connect different databases together, if I were to go this way.
Thanks for any input or ideas!

I'm wanting to start to understand SQL Server. I've got the Beta Version of MS SQL Server 2000 and was wondering whether I could install this on my Windows Me box and start developing? Is this wise, or should i not use the Beta version? Is there a time when the Beta version "runs out"?
Are there any good basic SQL web sites out there? I know all about Access developement and i know some SQL, but i know nothing about SQL server. Which is the best site for me?
Thanks.

I've been using databases for twenty years now and have just started using SQL Server 2000. I've used dbase III+, FoxPro and FileMaker Pro mostly and have a pretty good generally knowledge of databases. However, I'm constantly scratching my head over a few SQL Server foundational issues and would appreciate some help.
Probably the biggest question is this:
In FileMaker Pro (and FoxPro if I remember correctly), I would set the relationship once and then never have to think about it much again. Then I could create virtual tables and sub forms which contained data from several tables and view/update them with ease. However, in SQL Server I've noticed that while I can define the relationships in a database diagram, every query has to recreate the joines. If I try to use a view I can only update one table at a time which seesm whacky to me. So what on earth is the point of having relationships if you have to redefine them with each query? I've read that referrential integrity is the reason but that only baffles me further as I don't understand the point. Sure I get cascading deletes but there has to be more to the feature than that.
Also, when I want to insert data in multiple related tables I'm used to utilizing the existing relationship, mentioning the primary key once and then simply filling in the data. It seems in SQL Server that I have to also insert on the foreign key. This doesn't make sense as the database should know which record I'm talking about in the foreign key table(s) as they're related. Again though, I'm not only recreating the relationship in the insert but I'm also having to specify the foreign key. I guess it just makes me wonder why it's not simply checking the relationships which already exist.
So I'm a bit baffled and any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Hello!
I'm having trouble doing a basic permission, I need to prevent one user from seeing one column in a view, such as a students phone number. However, when I deny the user from seeing the column it denys the user from viewing the entire view. Can someone tell me the correct way to deny the user from just the one column.
Thanks in advance

I am using the SQL Server 2000 query analyser to write stored procedures for an SQL Server 2000 database.
I would like to find a debugger to help me "look into" my stored procedures as they are executed (e.g. to watch a Cursor fill a table row by row, see the contents of temporary tables as a stored procedure progresses, etc.)
Could anybody, please, direct me to-
* Any debugger that does this
OR
* Simple instructions how to run stored procedures from Visual Basic. I suspect :) that VB's debugger may be able to look into the SQL as it is being executed, but I don't actually know how to use VB itself.
Thanks very much,
Angelos

Hi everybody:
I go to Server Explorer, right click on Data Connection, input the server name (that is, my own computer), give a new name to the database to create, and then inevitably get the error window saying:
An error occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connectiong to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL server does not allow remote connections. (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error 40, could not open a conection to SQL Server)
So, how to open a connection to SQL server 2005? I looked in the msdn but found absolutely nothing.
Please help

Of all the Visual Basic.NET data access books that I have purchased and all the Internet site example code that I have reviewed, none have had any good examples of multi-threaded VB.NET code doing data access.
I am trying to avoid the non-responsiveness in a VB app while a simple data retrieval from SQL Server 2005 is in progress.
If anyone knows of any book titles or web sites that have example code (good or not) of multi-threaded VB.NET applications doing data access against Microsoft SQL Server (7, 2000, or 2005) or even against Microsoft Access(TM), it would be very much appreciated if you could provide the book title or URL to point me in the right direction.
The more examples the better.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation:
"The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started:
"The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is:
[1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input.
[2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
setup.exe /qb
username="CustomerUsername"
companyname="OurCompany"
addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK"
disablenetworkprotocols="0"

Your advice is kindly welcome.

Hi,
I want to make a component library in Visual Basic.NET and connect to a remote Sql Server. When I create a new DataSet with the wizard, I can only connect to a .mdf file, but not to a Sql Server. With Visual Web Developer I can connect to a Sql server. What is the difference between these enviroments ? How can I do the same with Visual Basic.NET ?
Thanks in advance.
