looking for a solution for a client that we will make software for. We are a ISV. After
completion of the software, our client then wants to sell this software to their
partners, people in that business, etc. We do not want to add any additional cost, by means of them(client(s)) purchasing
a server, server software or licensing. Is there any solution
that will make this work? A runtime or embedded database solution? If there is a
license we need to purchase, what would that be? SQL Express Edition work?
Hello,This is hopefully just a quick question. I'm looking to re-jig our in-house development infrastructure and part of that will be some sort of SQL Server product, and I'm hoping it will be the Developer edition.My question is, how many copies of the Developer edition would I need to purchase, if I have one Windows 2003 server (which will server the databases) and two client machines which will use it.My initial thought is 2 copies, one for each user (as the license states). But what about the server? Do I just install one of the two copies onto the server and the license covers the two client connections?This might seem a silly question with an obvious answer to you guys. However, am I right? I just need to get this clear in my head.Thanks in advance..

How to set Enterprise Manager, then can I connect to DB ?
Hi. I hate to be a noob, but I'm having great difficulty trying to set up a datasource in my client app. The only choices I see in the 'connect to database' dialogs are file-based, not connection-based.
Should I not see an option for SQL Native Client ?
How can I configure SQL Client on a Client Machine ? (no server)
How can I configure the ports and addresses used by .NET SQL CLIENT FOR SQL SERVER ?
Why can I connect to the database via TCP when using the management studio but not when using the visual IDE C# ?
Thanx.
I have a project to convert an application developed in VB 6.0 which has backend as MS-ACCESS and make it compatible with SQL-SERVER 2000. many fuctions like cdate(), IsNull() and UCase() which work in access do not work in SQL. what are their SQL Equivalent?

Hi everybody, its my first time implementing sql express 2005.
basically we installed sql express 2005 sp2 on a file sharing server. server is connected to another 7 work stations. all work stations can ping server, but not all of them can connect to the sql server. some connect without a problem and others give us a timeout expired (most common error we get). we use the sql login sa, and also have created logins so we can access through windows auth. can anyone give me an insight to this problem or maybe someone has encountered this problem?
thanks
Hi,
My department has some questions about Client Access Lisences. Specifcally, they want a definition of what does and does not require a CAL,
and they want something somewhat official. I checked the MSKB, and looked on their sales website, but all I can find is the EULA, and that doesn't help
me all that much.
Does anyone else have this information?

I am experiencing VERY slow connectivity between client and server SQL 2000. I have checked the network activity and it is low. It also takes Enterprise manager ages to load, and then browsing tables and trees is impossible!
HELP!!
Hello everybody,
I recently made a DTS-package from importing external data in my sql2k
server.
I linked my access file to the sql server to make some reports.
Right now, my clients run the dtsrun utility through a batch file
themselves. I gave them permissions to be the dbase owner.
Now when you link from access to sql server as admin, your names are :
dbo_Tablename.
If it's another user, the names get pvanmoer_Tablename and for another user
it's cvanho_Tablename.
(Validation through NT)
So my linked tablenames aren't valid anymore in my access file. So I need
to relink them each time.
How can I avoid this problem ? I've been trying to create tables without
dbaseowner, but this doesn't seem to work.
Can anyone help me ?
Thanks,
Bjorn
Hello Everybody,
I need some help.
When we install the Database at the clients end, the client can see all
the SQL tables, views and stored procedure in the Enterprise Manager.
Is there a way via which you can restrict the client from viewing the
tables in SQL Enterprise manager?
I hope you understand my question.
I would be oblidged if my friends could help me...
Thanks
Is there a way to update data on a MS Access 2000 client from SQL Server without polling a table using the form's onTimer event?
It would be much more elegant if I could push the data to the clients every 15-30 minutes when the data on SQL Server gets refreshed.
Can DTS do this? The forms I'm talking about are select only, no editing.
I know I can do this with java and multicasting, should work with MM Flash as well with listeners. I would really like to take this app to Flash, but we have a 1 month timeline to port from Access to SQL Server.
Thanks,

Hi,
We're *very* new to using SQL Server and are just getting it up and running. We're only running simple queries right now, but we're doing so by connecting to our server via 'Remote Desktop' to run the management studio to run the queries.
Is there an SQL client that can be installed on a user's workstation that will allow them to run queries without having to use a 'Remote Desktop' connection on the server?
Thanks,
James
Got read about it, but can I load it on to an XP Pro client and the reach from another client using QA...or is it pure osql?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a DTS package that executes when run manually. It is a OLEdb (ODBC) to client access (db2). When I try to schedule it the package fails.
Other packages SQL - SQL are fine to schedule or to run man.

I have a C# windows app trying to access database based the connection string stored in teh app.config file
Here is my app.config parameters
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="con1" connectionString="data Source=127.0.0.1sinclair;initial catalog=kingsroad;uid=balrock;pwd=123456;integrated security=True" />
</connectionStrings>
</configuration>
The reason I want to put an ip address on connection string i just want to create connection strings as people do in their work. When the app tried access the connection string it gives the error in the attachment.
Because I haven't used this user/password for a long time I'm pretty sure the user name and password is correct but i have the following questions
1. Assume the user and password is incorrect, is there way to reset this?
2. what other configuration that i need to do in order to make teh C# app access this Database?
I have an excel workbook, that has a pivot table in it where the data source is an OLAP cube. My problem occurs on the client machine, logged in as the client. I remote into the PC, and create a pivot table using the OLAP cube connection. I create the pivot table and everything works fine - I am able to browse the data with no issues. Once I exit the Excel Workbook, and come back in - I am no longer able to connect to the datasource. I have tried both saving the password in the connection and not saving it. It has made no difference.

Hi all...
I am writing a Windows Application which will be used by about 100 clients. (NT Authenticated)
The application is going to be used in a LAN enviroment. User who have access will download a VB.NET application from a web site.
Of course, I want to prevent any of the 100 users from using a tool such as Query Analysis or ODBC to connect directly to the database and modify data.
So, it appears the way to go is to the "Application Roles". For this to work, the application roll password has to be saved in the application to execute the sp_setapprole procedure.
Is there a way to secure this password? I am worried about a user somehow extracting the password from the application and connecting directly.
Am I on the right track here? Any ideas appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi,
I have SQL Server 2005 installed and functioning (it does everything I've asked it to do locally). I also have the Express and Standard Editions installed on a computer running WinXPPro SP2 with all the WinUpdates applied. I also have VS2005 installed on this computer. I've done some development work on this computer, using VS2005 to create a SQLDB, connect to it, add data, etc. This is all okay.
The problem is I cannot connect to the SQL Server from the client computer. I installed the client tools on this XP Pro box along with all the WinUpdates. Here's what I can do...
I can ping the SQL Server by name (the name gets resolved).
I can copy files between the two computers using Explorer.
I enabled "Allow remote connections to this server" in the Server Properties / Connections page.
I did not change the default port of 1433.
The TCP/IP protocal is enabled in the Configuration Manager.
The Surface Area has been configured to allow local and remote connections using TCP/IP and named pipes.
SQLBrowser surface is running as is the MSSQLSERVER service.
So what's going on? I am new to SQL Server to it may be something very simple / obvious.
Thanks for your help,
Scott
Hi ,
I have installed the SQL 2005 Client tools in anticipation of our servers been upgraded to SQL 2005 soon. I would like to create a local instance of SQL 2005 i.e. Express so I can try out functionality while I wait for the servers to be upgraded.
Is this possible or is now installing Express going to mess up some of the currently installed tools?
Help appreciated.
I work at a place that does device testing where the test results are saved in a SQL database. I have an objective to create a plan for a pilot project to place the data on our intranet so our engineering dept can research test results.
I'm trying to find some group I can beg / borrow / pay to look at our schema and help me chart out what tools we should use and how much (ballpark) work is involved.
I'm a VB.NET developer. I did a tutorial on SQL Reporting Services and see potential there. I skimmed a tutorial on SQL Analysis services, and like the idea of being able to trend our data. But it's over my head at this point to get from where I'd like to be to what Microsoft tools to use and how to put them together.
I contacted one local DB/Developer shop and they wanted to bring in a team of engineers for two days and charge us $6000 for a "total solution". Instead of that, I'd like to maybe spend an hour on the phone and some emails to send a schema to someone who knew the tools inside/out and get a pretty good recommendation for a reasonable price.
Any ideas on how I can find such help?
thanks much - Mark
Hi,
I am a VB6 programmer and I'm really new to SQL Express, I have always used ACCESS because it was so easy to deploy. I've now written a VB6 program which uses SQL Express and I want to know how to deploy it. Basically my PC will host the SQL database as it has SQL Express loaded onto it. I now want to install my EXE onto other Client's PC and have them read/write to the database on my machine.
Besides the EXE program, what software do I need to load onto the Client's PC so they can access my SQLExpress database...? (eg: Net Framework, SQLExpress, etc).
Also, if my machine is called ABC123, in my connectionstring do I just put in
ABC123sqlexpress as the datasource..?. Will this be enough for the other PCs to connect to mine ?
Thanks
I have created a PPC application that uses ADS to synchronize my sqlce db with a desktop MS Access database. It works fine on my computers, but my client cant get it to work on his. Here is the situation.
His "Computer Name" as it's stated in his 'My Computer' properties is "PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV"
However his Access.MDW File is located in the directory "C:Documents and SettingsJoe NobodyApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
There is no directory called "C:Documents and SettingsPAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOVApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
His current config.xml file looks like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SystemNode>
<AccessDB>C:Program FilesNOAA Release LoggerNOAA_ReleaseLogger.mdb</AccessDB>
<DeviceDB>Program FilesNOAA Release LoggerNOAA_ReleaseLogger.sdf</DeviceDB>
<Login>Joe Nobody</Login>
<URL>http://Joe Nobody:1024/</URL>
<WinDir>C:</WinDir>
</SystemNode>
He has tried adding port 1024 as an exception for his firewall settings, has installed Access Database Synchronizer on his computer, and I have also tried using the "long" computer name as the url setting in the config file. (i.e. <URL>http://PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV:1024/</URL> but this throws the error
"The HTTP request failed due to incorrect format or content. Try restarting the IIS server.[]"
I dont know what else to try! Anybody have any suggestions?
Hi,
I have a quick question regarding domains and workgroups.
Currently I am working on an issue in the office of a small business. Right now there are 3 client computers that connect to a dell server running windows std. server 2003. The server has sql running on it that takes care of the invoicing system. Two out of the three work stations are able to use the database fine, but there is one that is unable to connect to the database. The only different that I could find is that the two workstations that DO work are currently set to use a workgroup, whereas the one workstation that does NOT work is set to use a domain...... I tried switching that computer to workgroup, but then I was unable to login as the normal user that I had always logged in as before.....
What can I do to solve this dilemma?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I apologize if this is the wrong forum for this, and if it is, if someone would point me to the correct one I would appreciate it.
Thanks

Hi,
I had a question. Is is good to configure Outlook Express as my default mail client for SQL Mail. I had to do this as Outlook 98 was not responding and there was couple of other problems.
Hey all... great site!
Here's what I'm going for:
I have an 05 VB.NET windows application that will be used as a smart client for our folks in the field. The windows application includes 05 SQL Server Express. I have included in the Data Sources of my project and attached file going through the wizard Microsoft SQL Server Database File (SqlClient) ='s (myfile.mdf) and then selected all tables, views, stored procedures, and functions... the corresponding myfileDataSet.xsd with the myfile.mdf are now located in the root of the project. I now recompile the project without error and go to the properties section Publish tab... select the Application Files button and myfile.mdf Publish Status is set to Include and the Download Group set to Requried. With this in place I right click on the myfile.mdf from the Soultion Explorer and under the properties section have set the build action to compile and use the copy always setting for the Copy to Output Directory.
My app.config looks like this:
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="userSettings" type="System.Configuration.UserSettingsGroup, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" >
<section name="myfile.My.MySettings" type="System.Configuration.ClientSettingsSection, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" allowExeDefinition="MachineToLocalUser" requirePermission="false" />
</sectionGroup>
</configSections>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="myfile.My.MySettings.ffgscrmConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|myfile.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
After the publish is completed on the client machine... install for Windows Installer 3.1, SQL Server Express, and the Windows Application contains no data but everything else works fine.
My problem is that I need to attach the myfile.mdf to the new SQL Server Express instance on the client machine during the installation process so that when the application fires it will be pointed to the above location on the client.
Any ideas... scripts... includes for an ApplicationEvents.vb on how to do this? Thanks a ton... :)
Kind regards,
BillB
