Does anyone have any experience converting from D3 to SQL 2005? I am attempting to translate D3 terminology in its SQL equivalent. I have very limited experience with D3. Any help would be appreciated.
View 2 RepliesHello, im shure this must have been up before and i apologize for that. But i wonder if there is a way to convert the SQL server express databases to MSSQL 2005 databses?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOK, I have some SQL Server 2000 databases that I want to convert to 2005. My question: how do I do that?
I tried importing the data, but it only picked up 3 tables out of 7 user tables in one of my SS2K databases. Plus, it did not pick up any stored procedures or any other kind of objects.
So I tried restoring from a backup, but predictably it could not do that because the original backup was on a different server.
I also tried the upgrade advisor utility that comes with SS2K5, but it could not seem to connect to my SS2K server -- it said it could not find any SQL Server objects on the server, even though I am connected using Enterprise Manager and have been using this server for a long time. Is it looking for 2005 databases? That wouldn't make a lot of sense.
Anyway, I am stumped... can anyone provide help on this?
Thanks!
I'm trying to convert a 6.5 compatible db from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. The issue I'm encountering is that:
1. I cannot simply convert the 6.5 compatible db to SQL Server 2005. I tried restoring from a backup - no success.
2. I tried creating the structure in SQL Server 2005 and then importing the data from SQL Server 2000. Problem is - after importing the data, I then tried creating the primary key and indexes - get a time-out error (which I never got with SQL Server 2000.) I also tried creating the primary key and indexes in SQL Server 2005 FIRST before importing - got errors when trying to import and import failed.
I know this sounds like a data problem but I have no problems working with this 3 gig database in SQL Server 2000.
Can anyone please help? This is a pretty serious problem I need to overcome with the SQL Server 2005 conversion.
Is there any other way besides manually changing and moving ASC Sequels. I was thinking there was a way that will do the translation without having to manually do it. Also if there is a way will it also Move ASC Tables and Scripts to run Data Files?
Thanks
We are running a COM+ DLL that handles transactions and security with a SQL Server back-end. This project was started in VS 2003, but we just converted it to VS 2005. Since the conversion, creating a number of transactions in a row generates errors at consistent, but moving, locations in the code (i.e. the location where the failure occurs changes when I do things such as add additional try/catch statements, so it is not random but also clearly not associated with any particular line of code).

Finally making the move to ASP.NET! I've been advised that to begin with it is probably best to start using SQL Server 2005 with ASP.NET. All my sites are currently using MySQL. Can anyone advise a way for me to import all the data from a MySQL database to a SQL Server 2005 database. Apologies if this isn't directly related to ASP.NET but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I have a large (huge) database that I want to copy onto my new slq 2005 test server. I'm leaning toward detaching the data on my 2000 box, duplicating it, copying it to my new 2005 machine, and attaching it. Is it possible that it could be that simple? If not, how is it done? Thanks a bunch for any help or pointers to the articles I was totally unable to find on the subject.

I have got SQL Server Desktop Engine running with 2 database and I need

Hi
I have a SQLite database. I want to convert it to a SQL Server 2005 database. Can u guide me how to do it?

I recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. My databases are stable and functioning perfectly. However, these databases are using the 32-bit version of SQL Server. The servers are going to be upgraded to 64-bit processors and new Server 2003 64-bit OS's.
Everything I have been able to find says that it is a simple process of backing up the databases in the 32-bit environment and restoring them in the 64-bit environment.
Could it really be that easy? I am looking for someone who has done this to provide any "heads up" commentary on what to look out for during that process. Can anyone provide some information on this process?
Thanks.
I am attempting to move a timestamp data column from DB2 to SQL Server 2005. Normally not a big deal but the column is part of unique index.
The DB2 timestamp has seconds of ss.ssssss but SQL Server only has ss.sss.
Most all the times entered into this column are a from an automated process so they are really close together timewise.
Here is what I have come up with so far:
1. Fast Load OLEDB with a batch of 10,000 records at a time
2. On the fail of the batch redirect rows to a regular table load OLEDB insert task
3. On the fail of the single insert redirect rows to script that ups the seconds one tick.
4. Attempt one last insert of the modified rows
5. If fail, then store the record off to a delimited text file
I am hoping to get the number of records that wind up in the delimited text file to be a very small number and not in the 1,000+.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi all--I'm trying to convert a function which I inherited from a SQL Server 2000 DTS package to something usable in an SSIS package in SQL Server 2005. Given the original code here:
Function Main()
on error resume next
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set rs = DTSGlobalVariables("SQLstring").value
for i = 1 to rs.RecordCount
sSQL = rs.Fields(0).value
cn.Execute sSQL, , 128 'adExecuteNoRecords option for faster execution
rs.MoveNext
Next
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
This code was originally programmed in the SQL Server ActiveX Task type in a DTS package designed to take an open-ended number of SQL statements generated by another task as input, then execute each SQL statement sequentially. Upon this code's success, move on to the next step. (Of course, there was no additional documentation with this code. :-)
Based on other postings, I attempted to push this code into a Visual Studio BI 2005 Script Task with the following change:
public Sub Main()
...
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Class
I get the following error when I attempt to compile this:
Error 30209: Option Strict On requires all variable declarations to have an 'As' clause.
I am new to Visual Basic, so I'm on a learning curve here. From what I know of this script:
- The variables here violate the new Option Strict On requirement in VS 2005 to declare what type of object your variable is supposed to use.
- I need to explicitly declare each object, unless I turn off the Option Strict On (which didn't seem recommended, based on what I read).
Given this statement:
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
I'm looking at "i" as type Integer; rs and sSQL are open-ended arrays, but can't quite figure out how to read the code here:
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
This code seems to create an instance of a COM component, then pass provider information and create the recordset being passed in by the previous task, but am not sure whether this syntax is correct for VS 2005 or what data type declaration to make here. Any ideas/help on how to rewrite this code would be greatly appreciated!

Hi there,
Here at my work(in Germany) i have a big problem:
Once a week there is a sqlscript, which should run and store data to a txt file.
There is a tablle in which imagedata is stored in RAW format(that one with small boxes, Qmarks and dots...).
Now i want to export it to the txtfile as HEX, so i can decode it by php further.
With the thumbnail, also stores there everything is fine, the SQL looks that way:
SELECt hex(thumbnail) FROM picTable where id_pic=54985
The Data is then displayed as HEX. But the standart picture is to big. When i use the statement:
SELECt hex(bigpic) FROM picTable where id_pic=54985
i got the error message:
An error occurred while running the query.
The data type, length, or value of argument 1 of HEX is invalid.
(SQL code = -171, SQL state = 42815)
After some research i found that the maximum lenght is 16 336 bytes for the HEX-operation. The picture is nearly 30 000 bytes... :shocked:
Have anyone an idea how to fix that?
I am not able here to accsess to the database direct...
I have been working for days on it.
Hi All,
I am in the process of changing the cursor based Proc with temp tables, I have one of the Procs which is beening used to get a value for the cursor, I am thinking if it is possible to change it to a function so that I can update the column at once.

CREATE PROCEDURE[dbo].[get_cre_tijd_id] (
@tijd_datum datetime,
@tijd_id int output
)
AS
DECLARE @datum_tekst VARCHAR(25)
DECALRE @datum_tijd DATETIME
SET @datum_tekst = CAST(@tijd_datum AS VARCHAR);
SET @datum_tijd = CONVERT(DATETIME, SUBTRING(@datum_tekst, 1, 12), 21 )
SET @tijd_id = (SELECT tijd_id FROM dim_tijd WHERE tijd_datum = @datum_tijd )
IF @tijd_id IS NULL
BEGIN
INSERT INTO dim_tijd (
tijd_datum
, jaar

Hello all,
I am subtracting two datetimes (last(fields!FaultStart.value))-(first(fields!FaultStart.value)) this works fine and returns a value in a textbox 5.23:44:23. I need to convert that number to minutes I am very new to sql programming and do not know very many commands. I am using Microsoft sql server 2005 express edition along with sql server business intelligence development studio where I placed a textbox and entered the expression above. I have also tried to use datediff command
=datediff(second, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
but the second is underlined and tooltips says WRONG NUMBER OF ARGUMENTS I€™ve tried
=datediff(€œsecond€?, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
and
=datediff(€œ€™second€™€?, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
also for second I€™ve tried seconds. Any help would be most appreciated
Thanks

I haven't seen a really good solution for this in amongst the threads about UTC. What I want to do is convert a date time to UTC, taking into account whether or not it is in DST, and be able to deploy this code to any server in the world without customizing the SQL code, and have it know how to convert, as long as a I feed it the local Time Zone.
I would think this would be easy because the OS knows at any given time what time zone has what UTC offset, and exactly at what time DST starts and ends. Right now I do this, but it is limited. I have a table that, for each site (there can be more than one site in different time zones) stores the UTC offset and whether or not the site observes DST. New York would have the "Observes_DST" set to 1, Phoenix would have it set to zero. The "Hours_To_UTC" value would be 5 for New York.
This code below assumes all sites are located in Canada or the US, as Canada and the US now use the second Sunday in March and first Sunday in November as the switch over times. (although this would work fine for countries like India and China that don't observe DST).
UPDATE a
SET Time_Arrived_UTC =
CASE
WHEN b.Observes_DST = 1 THEN
CASE
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) IN (4,5,6,7,8,9,10) THEN
DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived)- DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) >= 7 AND
Day(Time_Arrived) <= 14 AND DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) <> 1
then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived) > 14
then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived) >= 8 AND Day(Time_Arrived) <= 14 AND
DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) = 1 AND DATEPART(hh,Time_Arrived) >= 2
THEN DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 11 AND Day(Time_Arrived) <= 7 AND DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) = 1 AND
DATEPART(hh,Time_Arrived) < 2 then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 11 AND Day(Time_Arrived)- DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) < 0 then
DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)
ELSE DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC,Time_Arrived)
END
ELSE DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC,Time_Arrived)
END FROM
Facts_Table a INNER JOIN Site_Info_Lookup_Table b
ON a.Site_Name= b.Site_Name
This works, (and is much more efficient than using a UTC lookup table) and I could probably go about hard coding various other start and end DST datetimes for other time zone DST (Australia and Europe, for example), but that wouldn't be dynamic in case one country makes a change in policy that changes when DST starts and stops, like the US just did.
SQL Server only provides current time UTC conversion--I would think it should have a function like this:
ConvertToUTC(datetimevalue,timezone)
Oracle has a function like that, but it is useless because it doesn't take into account DST, it would for instance just add 5 hours to EST for every date you entered (now that's helpuful!). It is baffling that this function doesn't exist.
I am using Integration Services so I could probably build a script task that would query the OS for DST start and stop times given a particular time zone (if available), but I'm not much of a coder--would be nice to have an easy way to do it in Transact-SQL.
Thanks,

Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I have an application that inserts a variety of values into a SQL Server database. Among the columns are three DateTime values. I have code working properly on my test server, but when I port the identical code to my production database, I get the following error:
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime. The statement has been terminated
When I remove any type of insert involving date, the application works. I have tried the date in various formats, for instance "09/12/2001" and "20010912", but still get the same error. Obviously, there must be differences in the SQL Servers, but I have never run into this problem before and the current server is running many applications involving dates. I haven't got a clue as to how to solve this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
