I searched this news group but couldn't find that problem which
is suprising... maybe I'm doing something stupid.
I start one of the chm files (books on line help files).
I read about a topic. There are links.
I click on them. It tells me "Selection is not associated with any
topic. Please try again.". Its ahref link to jscript function:
javascript:hhobj_1.Click() but I do not have it and cannot find it.
So I have to go between all those chm files hoping to find the topic
of my choice.
Plus I want to search them all at once.
There must be a (smart) and easy way to do this.
Please, do you have any suggestions.
How do you use BOL? I've heard time again that there is much info in BOL but when i look at it it seems too brief and not detailed. I find it hard to find what i'm looking for anyway. How do you use it?
Can anyone guide me to a place where I can download some Tutorials / Books (Not that new) covering Microsoft SQL 2000 essentials ? I tried to find here, but artices are too advanced for me.. I need something that covers the Basic and that could be used as a small reference/guide while I am learing...
are a mess, reminiscent of the structurless "goto" programming of days past. One of you brainiacs need to erect a "real" getting started section, with procedural steps on how a first time user can successfully download, install, and use SQL Server Express. Not all of us are working in corporations where the guy in the next cubicle can answer questions for newbies.
I will try once again, nicely, to ask a question about installing SQL Server Express Edition SP2 onto a Windows Vista machine. That drama will take place in another post.
I am trying to install sql server 2005 books online but I am failing and I am getting this message "This installation pakage could not be opened.Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"
am I doing anything wrong or has the version of books online changed? Do I have to install anything else before installing it? or does my operating system not support it?

I downloaded and tried to install the file "SqlServer2K5_BOL_May2007.msi" and got a message: "This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." Please advise.
Can some one give me detail instruction to installing the SQL Server 2005 Express Books Online. I am new to SQL Server and want to install the MS training material.
I am trying to go thru the deployment tutorial, but I'm running into some trouble. The two sample packages I need to work with are called DataTransfer.dtsx and LoadXMLData.dtsx found in the samples.
When I examine these packages, they are writing to tables called dbo.HighIncomeCustomers and dbo.OrderDatesByCountryRegion. These tables don't exist in my copy of AdventureWorks database.
Also, when I try to open the Connection Manager for the target tables, I get a message that says, "The specified provider is not suported. Please choose different provider in connection manager."
Is it possible I'm having these issues because I'm working with a different version of the sample packages?

We have SQL cluster installed on top of windows cluster on VM environment. Node1 and Node2 under Windows Failover Cluster. SQL instance is currently on node2 the instance is up and running, but SQL Cluster service remains online pending and it restarts the instance on every 5 minutes.
SQL Browser service are running successfully.TCP/IP ports are enabled and configured.If we start the SQL server agent it is on for seconds and stopped immediately .Cluster Service is attempt to connect to the SQL service every few minutes (setting in SQL cluster resource) for the IsAlive check, if this fails then the SQL resource is restarted even if the instance was online. Hope this is what happening exactly.

I have to buy two books for the MIS dept for sql server 2000. Which one do you recommend? We are still on sql 7.0 and migrating to 2000 soon. All developers have good experience with sql server 7.0.
Want something that gives you recommendation about better practices for performance issues for writing SPs.
I read all the reviews on amazon and b&N . It's confusing to choose only two.

However i want to study on my own instead of going to classes. what if i get the microsoft e-learning books or microsoft press books? will this be enough in helpnig me with the course requirements? what are the difference between the two e-learning and MS Press books?
I just started at a client's site and have found that the Books On Line has been removed (all other items are there in the program group instead of BOL). Is there a site at microsoft that mimicks BOL? (sybase has a 'sybooks on the web' which mimicks their 'Sybooks' product documentation.
Can anyone recommend books on SQL Server 7.0 Data Transformation Services? Looking to find info on importing data from a Sybase server to SQL server (need good examples). Thanks.

we are trying to build warehouse in our company its very small database but still. we have come to a point where we are able to pull reports from the database that we have created as OLTP which is truncated and reloading everyday . Now we have to stop doing that and just update the database and check for the changes in the existing data. Can anyone suggest ETL book/webcast/weblinks that could help me.
Could someone explain the difference between these 2 books besides the fact that one is geared towards the express edition. The SQL Programming book sounds more thorough than the Express Edition book.
I would be teaching an applied database course to buisness majorundergrads. I'm looking for a book that introduces database conceptsusing SQLServer as the database. I would really appreciate if you couldrecommend me a few such books.ThanksNemo
