Is there any way to grant a user access to create and schedule back up plans, shrink databases and such. Basically allow someone to create maintenance plans without access to read the data in the tables?
View 1 RepliesI have to assign a group db_backupoperater permissions. Do they need any other role like db_dbwriter or dbreader? I don't usually assign roles like this.
Thanks
Hi all,
In MyDatabase, I have a TABLE dbo.LabData created by the following SQLQuery.sql:

I write the following SQLQuery.sql code for creating a Pivot Table from the Table dbo.LabData by using the PIVOT operator:

I am getting a error message saying: Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals boolean AND, type equals datetime.
I traced the pointer to @gdo and @gd, they are both dates!
INSERT INTO AdminAlerts values (CURRENT_USER, 'UPDATE', getDate(), @biui, 'Updated booking, ID of booking updated: ' & @biui & ', Booking date and time before/after update: ' & @gdo & '/' & @gd & ', Room number before/after update: ' & @rno & '/' & @rn & ' and Customer ID before/after update: ' & @cio & '/' & @ci)
If I cut that two dates out it works fine.
Could someone tell me the syntax to include a date in a string :confused:
Hi,
I was wondering if someone could help me. I'm having problems using backup in Enterprise Manager, the backup continually fails and points to a hardware problem. However, I have been able to backup files using different software to tape which rules out hardware.
I'm trying to create a new backup device incase the problem lies there but I receive the error 'error15061: Add device request denied. A physical device named '%s' already exists'
Any ideas?

hi
i want to create database from backup . so is it possible?????????????
Like it is possible in sql server 2005 full edition.
Hi,
I am trying to create a script that will create a backup (or copy) of an sdf database.
I have a database already in my application working nicely and want the user to have the option to backup that file so if anything goes wrong they will be able to click a button and it will restore all the data to the database. I am not sure which options are best for me. there are 3 main ones i have considered, these are:
1) Create a text file with all the data in it.
2) Create a HTML file with the data in it.
3) Create an xml file with the data in it.
Help would be appreciated. Thanks =]

Hi,
Is it possible to shrink a DB thru .NET.
Presently I have to go into the SQL server 2005 studio to shrink the DB.
To shrik the DB I right click on the DB and select all tasks -> Shrink -> DB
How would I do this thru SQL codse?
I would like to do it thru my VB.NET code as you would compact an ACCESS DB.
The reason I want to set it thru my code is :
The clients that use my program have no clue of
SQL or for that matter computer itself.
I just want them to click on a button on my application which should
do the shrinking.
Similarly for backup of the DB.
Tnx
I know this is easy but I am having trouble creating a database from a backup file.
I created a database (Test).
Then I selected 'Test', went to Tasks and selected 'Restore Database'.
I selected 'Device' browsed to the backup file.
I choose the destination database to be 'Test'.
There is no backup sets listed to restore. The 'OK' button is disabled.
How do you get the backup list to display? This is a new database. I don't need a backup.
I need to create a new db from a backup file of an allready existing database (vehicledb) on this server.So i created a new database with name "vehicledb2" .But when i try this, the backup says that this file is used...The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Vehicles2' database. Restore of database 'Vehicledb' failed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis script will read the contents of a DB backup file, and generate a restore command.
Set the value of parameter @backup_path to point to the backup file, run in Query Analyzer, cut/paste the output into another Query Analyzer window, modify as necessary, and run.
This is just a barebones script to demo how this can be done. Modify as necessary to meet your own needs.
Works in SQL 2000 and 7.0. May work in SQL 2005, but it is not tested.

hi
i have a database file backup which is having no extension (eg saims) . Can i create a database using this backup in sql server expression edition.
Or else is there any way to get the .mdf file from sql server 2005 full edition??????????????
Thanx in advance
Hi there
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
Thanks
Jane
Just a quick question that I really couldn't find using google or anything because it was too bland.
How do you return the whole database while still using the LIKE operator.
I have a textbox that you can use to search the database but I want all the data to be displayed underneath the box so you can "browse" the data if you don't know the name of what you are looking for.
What would I put as the default value? I used just defaultvalue="%" and that worked in 1 area, but not another. Is this the right way?
Thanks,
Chris
I have a query and for the life of me I cant figure it out.
I have a web form with a number of textboxes on it e.g. Title, subtitle, isbn. I also have a search button. This search page allows a user to enter any combination of fields in the form and then when they click the search button, a datagrid is diaplyed showing the results (gets the results from a SQL DB).
I have got the code working if the user selects say one item, but I dont know how to allow it so that the user can enter any combination of items in the form and the search button will search for it based on what the user says. I think im gettng confused with my logical operators in the sql statement.
If any one can take a look I would be greatful.public void BindData(){String @BookID = TxtBookID.Text;String @Title = TxtTitle.Text;String @Subtitle = TxtSubtitle.Text;String @ISBN = TxtISBN.Text;String @AuthorFName = TxtForename.Text;String @AuthorLName = TxtSurname.Text;
SqlDataAdapter ad = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT Book_ID_Internal, Title, Subtitle, ISBN, Edition, Publication_Date, Author.First_Name, Author.Last_Name FROM Book, Author WHERE Book.Author_ID = Author.Author_ID AND Book.Book_ID_Internal = '" + @BookID + "' AND Book.Title = '" + @Title + "' AND Book.Subtitle = '" + @Subtitle + "' AND Book.ISBN = '" + @ISBN + "' AND Author.First_Name = '" + @AuthorFName + "' AND Author.Last_Name = '" + @AuthorLName + "'", conn);DataSet ds = new DataSet();ad.Fill(ds, "Book");GridView1.DataSource = ds;GridView1.DataBind();}
protected void BtnSearch_Click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e){BindData();}

Hello everyone,
I have two tables athat are structurally identical. I wish to obtain rows that are in the first table that are not in the second one (e.g. the EXCEPT operator). EXCEPT is not supported directly in TSQL...

Thank you for your time

Hi,
Can you just tell me how to use LIKE Operator(Syntax) please.I am new to SSRS2005.
Hi,
I'm having problems using the between operator in a query statement.
Select *
from <mytable>
where date between @date1 and @date2
The date values with a hour specified, aren't returned. What is the approach you would recommend here?
Thx
EDIT: by playing with this problem I've figured out I can append the hour to the date like this: <date> between @fromDate + '00:00:00' and @toDate + '23:59:59'
this seem to work, but I'm not sure if this is correct
Hi,
I'm trying to build a form that will allow users to choose their own parameters for the Select statement in the SqlDataSource. These results would then be displayed back to a GridView control. The only problem I am having is figuring out how to allow them to choose the operator (=, <, >, <>, etc) from a dropdown list. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this with a SqlDataSource control? It is probably something simple and any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
