View 1 Replies View RelatedI have system database and user database file are present in G,H and W drive.The process is going to be - copy data from G to S, H to T, W to U. Rename G to X, H to Y and W to Z. Rename S to G, T to H and U to W. Reboot the servers. The original G, H and W will then be X, Y and Z. The old S will be the new G, old T will be H and old U will be W. My question is that after doing this whether my SQL server will start or not

Hello,
I'm looking to get the drive letter and path for my backups programmatically. I am monitoring my sqlserver boxes remotely and need to get this information to determine if my backups will fit on the backup drive.
I'm looking for either a sql statement or a stored procedure to accomplish this.
For example...the backup script states:
EXECUTE master.dbo.xp_create_subdir N'H:MSSQLBackupmaster'
I need to know how this script gets H:MSSQLBackup
Thanks in advance.
Hi All,
I took a backup of master,model and msdb database which was on D: drive and i tried restore it on C:. Now if i try to start sql server it comes out with a erorr that model database cannot be found and it keeps looking for model in D: drive which is not there.I tried restore of model with move option but it says cannot drop model as its system database.I tried attach detach but it does not understand tempdb as temp db is also on d: and i cannot understand how to move or point it to c:

Hi
I have been trying to use openrowset with a shared drive, and even though the share has "full control" permissions granted to "everyone" and the accout that SQL runs under has been granted explicit full control permissions I am unable to open the file which itself has no security on it.
Can I not use a \ path and only use mapped drives?
Thanks
below works...
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=C:5People.xls', [Sheet1$])
below doesn't work...
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=\cluster02FileManager5People.xls', [Sheet1$])
I am trying to move a log file from one drive to another.
What I have done is add another file to my file group. So now my log has a file on the 'e' drive and one on the 'f' drive. I now want to remove the file on the 'e' drive. I have emptied the file on the 'e' drive. When doing the command:
ALTER DATABASE Uniprodruntime
REMOVE FILE m_rk_runtime_log
I get the following error message..
Server: Msg 5020, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The primary data or log file cannot be removed from a database.
I have also gone into enterprise manager and tried to delete the file and it does nothing.
Has anyone run into this?
How do you compare SAN drive vs local drive on a 32 bit server?
Is it good idea to move my DB files to a SAN instead of local?

 1: TempDB keeps getting filled.  Restart of the server has not fixed it. I shrink it, but the space gets filled again. Now I can't even shrink it anymore
2: TempDB is at the wrong location. Its current location is this :C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.SQLPROD6MSSQLDATA empdb
How do I change its location?Â
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.SQLPROD6MSSQLDATA empdb
Correct location of TempDB should be: TempDB(T:) But its not there
Being a very novice SQL Server administrator, I need to ask the experts a question.
How do I go about moving a database from 1 drive to another? The source drive (C is local to the server, but the target drive (E is on a Storage Area Network (SAN), although it is still a local drive for the server. I want to move the database from C: to E:. Can someone provide me with instructions?
Thanks,

I have a table of definitions:
---------------------------
Glossary
---------------------------
Term | Definition
---------------------------
What I need to do is find all the letters that are at the beginning of the terms.
So if I have "apple" as a term, A is returned.
Also, if I have "forest", "fruit", and "flower", F is returned, but only once.
And if I have no terms that start with Q, Q is not returned.
Lastly, if I have a term like " 'Walking' Pneumonia", it should recognize that the term starts with a W.

Hi,
I am using an OLEDB source to run a stored procedure, which returns records from a temp table. The destination table is exactly same as the temp table in the stored procedure. I've some collation settings on both the destination table and temp table, but both are exactly same.
I got Unicode to Non-unicode conversion error first. I dont know why it happened as there is no difference in source and destination table. I solved that issue using the data conversion component. Then I got the truncation error. I set the Ignore on Truncation on error output to get rid of that issue. Then the package executed without any problem. But all the nvarchar and varchar fields in the destination table got populated with only the first letter of data.
Any Idea?
In my drop down menus - which are populated by tables - we can only use the scroll bar OR type in the first letter to find the item - Is there a way to type in several letters to find something? (e.g. if I want to find clockwork - right now I could type in "C" to get to the C's - but if I tried typing "clo" it would end up at the beginning of the "O's" - Thanks

SELECT name = SUBSTRING(name, 1, 1),
total = COUNT(SUBSTRING(name, 1, 1))
FROM products
GROUP BY SUBSTRING(name, 1, 1)
the assignment said that,
quote:"Do not display the letter and count unless at least three product names begin with the letter."
but i got the errors when I try following.
WHERE total >= 3
quote:Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Invalid column name 'total'.
WHERE COUNT(SUBSTRING(name, 1, 1)) >= 3
quote:Msg 147, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
An aggregate may not appear in the WHERE clause unless it is in a subquery contained in a HAVING clause or a select list, and the column being aggregated is an outer reference.
so what should I do?
Hello. We have a list of 1000+ sku numbers. 90% of them start with u. I need to replace the u with T.
Concerns:
It has to only replace the first letter, if there are other "u"s in the sku, they need to remain.
Not all skus start with u, those that don't should remain the same.
I have searched and searched because I'm sure someone has requested the exact same thing but I can't find anything that is identical.
I have this so far but I know its not correct:
set sku = replace(left(sku,1),'u',right(rtrim(sku),1)+
'T')
Can someone help lead me down the right path?
Thanks in advance!!!

upper(left(client.first,1))+ lower(right(client.first,len(client.first)-1)) +' '+ upper(left(client.last,1))+ lower(right(client.last,len(client.last)-1)) As 'Full Name'
I am looking for a way to, at execution, have 1 single report either print in "letter" or "A4" depending on a parameter I send it... anyone have an idea on where to start on this?
Thank you,

Hi all!This is the problem:User enters student name, in the database, only the 1st letter is uppercase and the rest is in Lower case.So, I want to fix this so as it is not case sensitive, i.e. the user can enter a name and it will return the recordwhether they enter it in upper or lower case.My Code:CvtUpperCase.Text = UCase(Content.Text) //stores user's input
Select Case OptionChoice
Case "Student_FirstName" MyCommand = New SqlDataAdapter("select * from [qryStudentDetails] where [qryStudentDetails].[Student_FirstName] like '" & CvtUpperCase.Text & "'" , myConnection)
....Any ideas??
I have a large website with over 100,000 images and the location of the images are stored in a column (img_url) as below:
/images/imagename.jpg
Because all these images are stored in the same folder it is hard to manage so we want to store each image under a directory based on the 1st letter of the image name, ie:
/images/a/aimage.jpg
/images/b/bimage.jpg
I can automate the physical move of the images into the correct directory but I need SQL update query that will update each column based on the 1st letter of the image.
So:
/images/aimage.jpg
/images/bimage.jpg
Updated to:
/images/a/aimage.jpg
/images/b/bimage.jpg
I'm trying to think a way to map an average rating (1-10) to a letter grade (A-F).
For example, if I querry the name of a professor and the corresponding rating for the professor, then I would also like to generate a column displaying the corresponding letter grade for the professor based on the rating.
Professor | Rating | Grade |
Smith 8.5 B
I use an aggregate function to diplsay the rating.
I'm thinking I may need to write my own aggregate function to display the letter grade. 'Professor' is an actual field of the database.

I am getting this error:
Invalid length parameter passed to the RIGHT function.
I have a letter I am creating in SSRS and would like the data to flow smoothly from one page to the next even if the whole section doesn't fit on a page instead of it forcing a page break which results in a large blank space on the page before. I have put the data into multiple text boxes (can grow is set for the text boxes) because of formatting requirements (I also tried the table object).
--Start Example--
TEXT HEADER 1
very long report letter information here (call it detail 1)
TEXT HEADER 2
even more very long report letter information here (call it detail 2)
TEXT HEADER 3
The term ""Accountant€™s Letter"" as used herein shall mean the certain math verification report, to be provided by an independent certified public accountant, certifying that the Securities shall generate the debt service payments due under the Loans. (call it detail 3)
--End Example--
So assume that everything but detail 3 fits neatly on the first page. Now part of detail #3 should fit on page one but it pushes the whole section to page 2 because it doesn't all fit. All I want is for say line to to be the last line on page #1 and lines 2 and 3 to be in page 2 instead of lines 1 through 3 on page 2. In reality, this letter is about 6 pages and each section is about a half page to 2 pages. This perceived minor issue has cost me a good day+ set back. Thanks,
