I want to physically move my .SDF file to my desktop and then access this file from VS 2005 VB.NET. Ideally, I would want to access this .SDF file from MS Access 2003 but I undersand this is not possible.
Here are my VS 2005 VB.NET statements....
Dim ConnPPC As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection("Data Source = C:Documents and SettingsG014436My DocumentsSQL
MobileActMgr6CE.sdf")
Dim mySqlDataAdapter2 As New SqlDataAdapter("select * from T0002_AE_Activity_Entry", ConnPPC)

On executing the last statement(fill)...I get the following error.

My organization supports both SQL 7 and SQL 2K. Therefore I have the Enterprise Manager for SQL 2K on my desktop (it accesses both SQL 7 & SQL 2K, but the SQL 7 EM won't access both).
I installed the SQL 7 desktop edition on my NT 4 (SP 6) workstation, but only the server (not client connectivity or client tools).
When I attempt to perform a new server registration using EM (with the desktop server running), I get the following message:
"SQL Server does not exist or access is denied"
I am attempting to logon as "sa" with a blank password since this will be my very first access of the installed DB.
Startup of server specifies that the "local system" account be used. Server starts up fine as best as I can tell.
For client connectivity I have both TCP and NAMED PIPES available.
Any help would be very much appreciated!!!!
Thanks Gary Andrews andrews_gary_w@solarturbines.com P.S. Where blank passwords are used, do I enter a single space or not enter anything and just press enter?
I'm running Windows Xp Pro With SQL 2005 Dev edition with Adventure Works sample db installed. I am the local administrator on my desktop, the services are up and running and I specified local connections only since this is the DEV edition of SQL05.
When I try either one of these connection strings: Data source=(SQLDEV05); initial catalog=AdventureWorks or Data source=(local); initial catalog=AdventureWorks.
I receive this error message:
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer -----------------------------
A connection cannot be made to the database. Set and test the connection string.

I€™ve developed a BI system using the SQL Server 2005 Developer€™s Edition.
SSAS, SSIS and SSRS have been added to a SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Server in preparation for delivering the developed database to this live environment.
So I am able to connect directly to the Database Engine, SSAS, SSIS and SSRS successfully from the actual SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition box which is sat on a Windows 2003 Server operating system.
However when I launch SQL Server Management Studio from a desk top PC which is connected to the SQL Server Standard Edition box I can€™t connect to either SSIS or SSRS, however I can connect to the Database Engine and it also seems that I can connect to SSAS OK.
I am using Windows Authentication where the I used a SQL Server account which exists with €śsysadmin€? permissions and this SQL Server account has the same login name as the Windows Server 2003 desktop login.
Dear All, i have a question abt winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. i am using VB.net of Visual Studio 2005 My platform is using a PDA with winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. The Host program is using dbf files on desktop side.
I got a problem of how to sync / read the sql CE data from a windows application.
so, i wanna ask,
1. any method to access the data from winCE data by windows application? or can i convert the sdf file to windows readable files? or any others?
2. Can i use a MDB to sync with SQL server CE? can i synchronize the mobile device which has a SQL Server CE database with the Access database on the desktop?
last question, 3. is that windows CE .net 4.2 not support pocket access (cdb) anymore?
Hi, I would create a vb2005 application that allow me to edit a sdf database stored into a pda connected at pc with activesyn directly on my desktop as well as "SQLCE Database View". How can i do it??
I am dealing with an old ASP.NET 1.1 web app that I want to fix and update. The existing site has an SQL database on the web host's SQL server. I want to rip a complete copy of this database (it isn't large, only 9MB) onto my desktop computer, so I can alter it and "bench test" the changes I'm making to the overall application in VS2005.
Now, I have tried to yank a copy of this database and its structure using GUI programs like Visual Studio 2005, SQL Studio Manager Express, and EMS SQL Manager, none seem to offer a "Save As" option. While I can easily make changes to the database and its tables on the web host's server (sql.hostname.net) with no problem, I can't figure out how to pull a copy off of their server and onto my machine...
Does this problem have a very simple solution that I am overlooking?
I am thinking of using my web database as the database to use for my program, though not sure how feasible due to connection speeds and having to transfer that info.
what I am using as the connection string is
con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=databse ipadress inserted here; Initial Catalog=databasename here;Integrated Security=True"; with real data obviously inserted into the ip and tables, but when i try and send values there it just hangs and then crashes. I am thinking its not finding the database. Is there something else im to do?
I am using the exact same code as when i use my own machine as the server, and it works great that way, only thing different is the trying to send to the web server.
I have searched through this forum and the news group
microsoft.public.sqlserver.ce
for this topic. I only find a post from Darren Shaffer and I requested a document.
Unfortunately, there is not a clear example of how to create a mobile database (sdf) on a desktop machine which contains VS 2005 and SQL server 2005 by using Visual Basic 2005.
I am sure a clear example in VB for this problem would help a lot of people. Hence anybody who knows how to perform this task, Please help these people.
I am running 7.0 standard desktop on Workstation 4.0 and have run into a database size limitation of 10GB. I have all the newest patches and have found no documentation that refers to a 10GB limitation. A September copy of VBA developer says that this edition has a limitation of 4GB while the guides say that the Small Business Server edition would have a 10GB limitation. All other forms of documentation say that there should be the standard mega-terabyte limit. I'm completely confused by this [lack of] documentation. Any help???
The sample application provided with Access Database Synchronizer fires a "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT." exception on my WinCE 4.2 device.
I debugged it with VS2005 to see what was going on and found that the problem resides in the line:
m_connDesktop.Pull("MSysObjects","SELECT Name FROM MSysObjects WHERE Type=1 and flags=0",accessSysConnectString,RDATrackOption.TrackingOff,"Err_MSysObjects");
It seems that connection m_connDesktop is ok but calling Pull method fails.
I've verified that SSEvAccessSync service is started when ActiveSync detects device connection and that firewall rules are correctly updated.
Also, i verified my System.mdw and i discovered that there is no "MSysObjects" table (only MSysGroupList, MSysGroupMembers, MSysUserList and MSysUserMemberships queries are there).
Do you think the problem is there?
How can i solve it without damaging System.mdw?
I cannot figure out what's the purpose of this line of code, can you help me?
I am writing a Desktop application accessing a SSCE database. I am running Windows XP SP2, VS2005 SP1, and have SQLServerCE3.1 installed. Debugging the application shows that ds.m_spInit->QueryInterface() returns E_NOINTERFACE. I have checked that SSCE runtime library is installed, IDBCreateSession uuid exists in the registry and m_spInit.CoCreateInstance(CLSID_SQLSERVERCE_3_0) return S_OK. Can you suggest me what need adding/installing to get the CSession.Open(datasource) working?
I have developed a C# desktop application which uses SQL express as its database. It works just fine as I installed the application, used SQL express Server Management Studio CTP to create database with tables , stored procedures etc.
Now, I want to create an installer that will not only install my application to other machines but also create the database with all the tables and stored procedures with it.
How do I do so? I searched the answer in several places but none worked out for me. Can anyone please help me on this??
For your convenience I'm giving the following informations:
Database name: NorthPoleSQL sever Name: IshtiaqueSqlexpress (used Windows Authentication Mode)
I have detached the database from the original machine and have the NorthPole.mdf and NorthPole_Log.ldf files. I want to use these files and create the database in target machine rather than writing sql scrips and executing them.
Please help me with a descriptive, step by step instruction as I am new to this technology. Thank you.
I have an application that creates a new database during installation,and I've noticed some strange behavior. Once I've created thedatabase, I am able to immediately create tables and populate lookupdata, provided I remain connected to the server. If, however, Idisconnect and attempt to reconnect immediately, I'll get an errorsaying that my login is invalid for the new database.I can get around this by having my code simply wait 5 seconds beforeattempting to reconnect, but I'm curious to see if anybody here cangive an explaination for why this is happening. Here is a bit ofpseudo code to explain what I'm seeing:open new connectioncreate databasecreate tablespopulate tablesclose connection// open new connection /* can't do this yet, as it would break */for (int a=0; a<5; a++){Thread.Sleep(2000)try{open new connectionbreak;}catch{Debug("still waiting...");}}Running my version of this code, I'll see that "still waiting..."message go past 2-3 times before SQL Server wakes up and realizes thatI'm allowed to connect to it. Anybody know why?Thanks,Jason KesterExpat Software Consulting Serviceshttp://www.expatsoftware.com/---Get your own Travel Blog, with itinerary maps and photos!http://www.blogabond.com/
I was able to connect to the SQL Database Pension with table clients with table values: ID, State, Name.'Create(connection)Dim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ConnectionString").ConnectionString)'open connectionconn.Open()However, I'm not sure how to insert a new row with an incremental ID number and a new State and Name.Sorry, I'm really new with VWD.
I am new to windows apps in .net 2.0. I am trying to create a windows service that will connect to a database and email info out to people that have had status changes. Right now, I can not connect to the database. Here is the connection string: Private cnn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection("Data Source=IPAddress;Initial Catalog=TheServer;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=userid;Password=password provider=SQLOLEDB.1;connect timeout=3600") This is how I am trying to connect: cnn.Open() myCMD.CommandTimeout = 0 dr = myCMD.ExecuteReader
I keep getting an error message that I can not be logged on. I know that the credentials are correct because I use them for the web app. Something has to be wrong with my connection string, but what? Thanks, enak

Hi, I'm on lesson 7 of the Bob Tabor video tutorial called 'Data binding to user interface controls'. Whenever I try to add an SQL database (add new item/sql database) I get the following error message: TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------

I am attempting to connect to a database that has been uploaded to my server from my webpages on the server. This is the connection string that is currently used: connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Restaurants.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" When attempting to connect to the database I receive this error message: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) I realize that I cannot make a remote connection using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, but cannot find the proper connection string for it to connect to the uploaded database. Accessing the database doesn't require a log on by the user as all the information is public. The authentication mode in the web.config file is set to "Forms". If there is any other information required so that this problem can be solved, please ask for it. Thank you in advance, Me

Ok I have several sites on a server that have connected to databases on a different server for a long. Out of the blue today none of the sites on the server can connect to any databases on the other server. However, sites on other servers can connect to databases on the same db server.This is the message I get:An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting 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 connection to SQL Server)The database server runs SQL Server 2000 not 2005 I can connect to the database from desktop (with an asp.net application or sql server management studio), I can ping the database server fine from the production web server, but my applications can't connect for some reason. There is nothing in the event log to suggest a problem, any ideas what could be causing this?
Hello, I have posted awhile ago about this issue, but after taking the advice and trying to get help from GoDaddy, nothing has worked yet. I am using the user login control, and then I changed the connection string in the web config file according to what Go Daddy's help file said, making sure to make proper server, id, and password names. It still won't go through, can anyone help?

I recently uninstalled SQL Server due to connection issues I started having. I could start the DB and connect/edit tables in Ent Mgr etc, but all the sudden, none of my code could make DB connections.
So, after reinstalling now nothing works. I cannot even connect in Ent. Manager. I went to Administrative Tools->Services to make sure it was running, and SQLSERVER isn't even listed under services. What happened? Is there another step after installing SQL Server I missed to get the service up and going. Do I need to do something in ODBC connections?
Hello I am new to the ASP.NET project and using Microsoft ASP.Net Web Matrix. When I try to connect to an Access Database it is no problem, but do I try to set up an connection with a SQL or MSDE database there is a problem.
It can not connect with my SQL server and gives the error: Could not create new database.
What can be the problem. My MSSQL Server is running perfect.
