1- I have given a dbo permission on a database named F12345-1, now I want to create a job on that server using this database.
2- I tried to create the first step in the new job but I don’t see my database name on the databases drop down menu (I only see the system databases)
3- I tried being under Master and using the USE sql command (Ex: Use F12345-1) at the beginning of my step but I get a message saying that the database F12345 doesn’t exist (The message doesn’t say the whole database name only the part before the hyphen)
4- I tried putting quotes around the database name with no luck, although that worked in SQL Query Analyzer but the Job didn’t like it.
Can you please help with this, knowing that I have no control on the database name (In order to remove the hyphen from the name which I am assuming is the cause of this problem)
Does anybody knows a workaround to register SQLServer with the name which contains hyphen('-') character in it? I work for multi-national company & they have naming standard for NT servers & this server has hyphen in it. Also site server guru here thinks that server name change option is not feasible. Please help.
We are about to name a new SQL Server and was wondering if anybody has any documentation/knowledge that states one should avaoid using hyphens when naming Servers, objects, etc in SQL.
I have always heard its bad practise, but have not found any solid documentation. For example, I know that the 'connect to' statement does not like hyphens, but what about a SQL Server name on the network ?
Hi, I'm using the following SQL script to return a list of part number and the order is not what I expect. Perhaps this is a collation problem but I have no idea where to look to modify that.
Thanks in advance, John select part from transactions T where (T.transdate between '20070701' and '20070705') and (T.transtype = 'ISSU' or T.transtype = 'RTRN') order by part
Here is the beginning of the Transactions table create script
CREATE TABLE [Transactions] ( [RecNo] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL, [Part] [nvarchar] (30) NOT NULL , [TransDate] [nvarchar] (8) NOT NULL , [TransType] [nvarchar] (4) NOT NULL , [FromLoc] [nvarchar] (10) ,
The 'Part' column is an alphanumeric field. The problem I am having is that the Order By seems to ignore the hyphen character '-' when the returned rows are ordered by the Part (which can contain hyphens in any column).
Here is an example of what I get.
130909N9 130909N9 130909N9 1-480698-0 * These two should not be here 1-480699-0 * 15-423 164-07700 164-07700 164-07700 1683
I was expecting this ( and I get this in and older database ).
068-03000 068-03000 06A19956 074-03200 077-367-0 08DU08 1-480698-0 * These should be here eariler in the data 1-480699-0 100-364072 100-364072
I have SQL Server 2000 DB that was converted via DTS from Acccess 97. Replication fails for any table with a single hypen in the table name. If I copy one of these tables to a name using an underscore rather than a hyphen, then it replicates successfully.
Below are errror messags from agent with -Outputverboselevel set to 2. I have also seen 'Agent error code 20082', in which case the replication command is incomplete.
I am having a field 'Flight Route that holds hyphen delimited character sequences.
E.g. : ABC-BCD-DEF-EFG.
My requirement is like this:
If the flight route is:
ABC-BCD-BCD-DEF make it ABC-BCD-DEF ABC-ABC-BCD-DEF make it ABC-BCD-DEF
i.e. 'whenever a sequence repeats,only one appearance of that sequence should be displayed.The field Flight Route has to be updated with this replaced string.
Hi All,we have a problem with the Full Text Catalog Search.We use the following SQL Statement for matching companies from a table:select company, lastname, firstname, pkcustomers, fkcustomers,location, title, fkFunktionen, TypeOfPositionfrom customerswhere (fkcustomers = 0 or fkcustomers is null)and active = 1and pkCustomers in (select [KEY] from CONTAINSTABLE(Customers, Company,'"*SEARCHTERMS*"'))order by company ascThe search so far is working perfect.Now the problem: There are two companies in the table called "i-fabrik"and "b-wise". There´s no way to find these two companies. I find outthat the search is successful if there are more than three letters infront of the hyphen (for exampe iii-fabrik or bbb-wise). How can thatbe? Why exactly 3 letters?I hope somebody can help me.Best regardsMarkus Weber
I have a parameter value as shown below and this is dynamic and can growÂ
Example : 101-NY, 102-CA, 165-GA 116-NY, 258-NJ, 254-PA, 245-DC, 298-AL How do I get the values in the below format NY,CA,GA Â --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state NY,NJ,PA,DC,AL Â --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state
correct query that will fetch  only state names and not the numbers.
SELECT TOP 1 @From = CONVERT(char,CreateDate,101) FROM CustomerInfo WHERE TicketNum = (SELECT TOP 1 TicketNum FROM CustomerInfo WHERE CreateDate <= DATEADD(mm, -30, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) ORDER BY CreateDate DESC) SELECT @To = CONVERT(char,GETDATE(),101)
SET @DBName = 'Archive_SafeHelp' CREATE DATABASE @DBName + ' ' + @From + ' ' + @To END

Sorry, I'm a newbie out there when it comes to creating database. I currently have an ASP.Net project which requires a database. I spent the past few days thinking about how to create a proper database for the application but to no avail. I think tis thread might be out of point for tis forum, but i am really in need of help.
Here goes the storyline of my database:
The project is an online project management system, meant for students to submit their deliverables (reports, eg. Minutes, agenda, project monitor chart) Lecturers will access the web application to grade the student’s submission. The application must allow administrators to add in new subjects. When a new subject is added, the subject leader will set a dateline for a particular module to be submitted. Eg, minutes dateline. Once the dateline is due, the system will inform the lecturers in charge of who/which group did not submit the module. Lecturers and subject leaders can then generate warning letters to be sent via email to the students involved. Lecturers and subject leaders will be able to make announcements through the system as well.
A student can either submit his/her work as an individual or as a group. A student will be studying more than 1 subject. A subject will consist of more than 1 module. Every module will have a dateline for its submission. Students can make more than 1 submission for each module. Students belong to different groups/classes for different subjects. For different modules, there will be different fields to be inserted into the database. Example, in the “Minutes module�, the student will have to be able to key in the objectives, the date of the meeting, the venue, its members, absent members, actual minutes, action by and meeting end time.
In the “Project monitor chart module�, the student will have to key in the week/date, the name of the member, task involved, as well as the status.
When a new subject is created, the subject leader will have to specify the percentage of each different module. (Eg, Exams – 40%, Term test 15%, and so on.)
A subject will also be taught by more than 1 lecturer. So subject leader will specify the lecturers teaching that particular subject.
I hope someone out there can help me out on the construction of a database for the above storyline. Thanks a lot.
Is there any tools to create a database with tables, views, and all that jazz with a GUI. I went through the exammle on beta.asp.net but the way they created their db was with a script. I want to create everything with a GUI app. If this gui app doesn't exist can someone point me to where I can find more info about creating db, tables etc with sql server 2005 express? Thanks in advance.-Daticus
I have an excel document that Imported to access database. That database should count the number of tickets created by each tech rep; list the area, sub area and description of call created by a the tech rep. Can access perform this task and if yes, any idea I to approach that project or should i use SQL, And if access won't be able to do it. please make a suggestion how to approach this project. it will be nice if i can get the steps.
EXAMPLE Request Id SRS Started Call Description Area Sub Area Request Status Closed Date Assign To Created By
This actually created the database. Now, I wanted to view this database info being stored inside the SQL Server system tables. I looked at "sysdatabases" table and found an entry as expected for "krish" but I could not trace where the info corresponding to the size of the database was stored ie.25MB . (I looked ad "sysdevices" but couldn't find any entry for the newly created database).
suppose if we want to create a database and all it relative things to a new server , for that if we restore the backup copy of that databas in a new server will it create the database and restore the data. Is it enough to restore the backup copy or we need to restore the log also.
I've done a lot of stored procs and modified tables but now I need to create a very basic database from scratch and wonder on how the best way to get started or any good tutorials out there.
I need help for creating a database, it's an exercise for my school, we just began to learn SQL, about entities, relationships (one to one, one to many...), creating tables, but the thing is i don't know where to start, i think i need to practise but it's hard to transform a text into a database, i think i need some help from you guys and i hope you will help me.
I give you the exercise, and what i found :
Project wants users to be able to initiate debates, post articles and get to the achieved items. A user should be able to write as many articles as desired after having register with login and passport
However articles should contain these references for more http links, URL, summary of the content; 1 or more books, article, doc, case studies …
1)Identify the data objects and relationship and draft the initial ER Diagram with entities and relationships. Normalize model as far as you can
2)write the SQL query / link (url) and corresponding summary
About the 1) Entities : users --> login and password associated (one to one relationships one user = one login/password) Articles --> associated with the users accounts (one to many)
I am not sure for creating the different tables, im a bit lost... :s
About the 2) totally lost, i need the 1) to make the SQL Query (i know a bit about queries)
I hope you will help me, i am a beginner in SQL (only one course taken) and it is our first exercise, thanks for your help all!!!
Hi, I am developing a Translator for a Mobile Phone and i have to create a database for storing English, Esperanto and French words. What are the SQL statements should i write to create the database and how can i deploy the database in a Mobile Phone/PDA?
I have a test database running on the server. Now what I want to do is to create a dev db that has the exact same data model as the test one so that I can test out my application on the dev db and then migrate it to the test db. Can somebody tell me how I can achieve something like that.
I have downloaded and installed 2005 express. All I want to do now is create a new database. I do not see where to do that. All that was installed was the SQL Server Configuration Manager and the Surface Area configuration. Am I missing something. I guess I am looking for something similar to Enterprise Manager. Where is it?
I'm rusty with database design just yet so trying to improve. This is my way of creating a database in Access but before i swap over to SQL structure i would like a good foundation.
Overall the way i looked at it was you had to have one table that held all your results that users entered and the query took care of the rest??? So for example (Red indicates a Primary Key)
Ok your'e probably thinking what if i need to add another Employee or how would i retrieve Employee or month details - to add another Employee the user would have to enter the details on another form which allows them to add another Employee. To select an Employee on the Order Form i would create a combo box which allows the user to pick an Employee.
To create a query to pull product Code, Description, qty, price and Employee name (to see which employee placed the order) i would add the following to a query
This is the way i thought you should create a database but i'm a developer therefore only work with databases when the query is created by a db admin. Guess i have something wrong here?? if so how would you go about creating this type of database? Overall purpose of the database is usually a user entering data and retrieving data every so often.
I am developing a test solution using Visual Studio and need a sql database. I have sql Management Studio (2008 & 2014) but when I try to create the database I get an error saying I need administrator permissions (or similar). This is a personal laptop with only me as a user and I AM the administrator.How do I create the database?
Hi. Im brand new to using SQL. I downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Trial Edition (Enterprise Evaluation Edition) and installed it. How do i create a database ? The only thing i can seem to open is the SQL Server Configuration Manager which just lets me start the Server. Did I install it wrong or open the wrong program? If someone could help I would greatly appreciate it.
I have been using microsoft office access to create database and connect to application built. This is the first time trying to create database using the sql server. How do i create a database using this?
Do i use the sql server management to create it?
Is there any step by step tutorials?
How do i connect the database to the web developer?
I've seen several post asking for that possibility, but all 've read, didn't help me.Some sing SQLDMO, other suggest to use SQLSMO, others only explaining to connect to a server and then do "CREATE DATABASE".I will do this within .Net. Connecting to a SQL Server 2005 and execute "CREATE DATABASE" I could realize.But how doing this with SQLExpress? Trying to do SqlConnection.Open with a non existing DB does not work., says "file not exists".Or do I only have the wrong connection string? Can someone post here an excample connection string, which works with a non existing database?Some hints I've read make me considering to use SQLSMO. But I don't have it on my computer. Where do I get it from? Any links would be nice.
I've tried copying the tutorials and this is the result: test6 below is accepted: CREATE TABLE test6(id smallint,first_name nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,last_name nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,movie nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY(id)); test7 below is rejected: CREATE TABLE test7(id smallint auto_increment,first_name nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,last_name nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,movie nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY(id)); My provider is GoDaddy, the error message is -2147217900, with "Line 2: Incorrect syntax near 'auto_increment'.
I've made a form and now all I want to do is save everything in the form into a new database file but I don't know how. I'm using Visual Web Developer 2005. Somehow I'm guessing that I have to set something somewhere so when the submit button is hit, it knows to save it to a database file which doesn't exist yet so it would have to create it. It should be easy but I can't figure it out.
