Can Msdb From SQL2K Personal Edition Be Restored On SQL2K Standard?
Oct 12, 2007The company for which I work did not have a DBA until I started a few weeks ago. Whoever installed SQL2K used the wrong CD so they have been running Personal Edition on their servers. I have installed a new SQL2K standard instance and have restored everything except the jobs and DTS packages. Can the msdb from the Personal edition be restored to the standard instance?

Delete/Move Certain Info From Column - Leave The Rest?
Nov 10, 2005I have a column that contains extra info that needs to be moved to another column or deleted alltogether. is there a way to select these items and move them to another column, leaving the rest of the data in the original column?
EXAMPLE
MYTABLE >COLUMN1
May have Data Like: ABCDE123 SER1 or XYZ12DEFSer1:1
WHAT I NEED TO DO IS
Move anything after the SER1 to a new column and retain the rest of the data in the original column. making it look something like this:
COL1 COL2
ABCDE123 SER1
XYZ12DEF Ser1:1
Another question is if there is a way to delete extra spaces? Like make all data that has two or more extra spaces, just single spaces and any additional spacing after a row of data, delete all additional spaces after the last letter/character/number.
One more question - What would be a great resource to learn MS SQL in more depth?
I am trying to learn ASP/VBScript/JavaScript/ and now MS SQL all at once b/c this is what my business depends on. Trying to be 5,000 hats at once can get confusing and overwhelming, so I am looking for any "Crash course" I can to learn as much, as fast as possible. Any direction or ideas?
Thank you.

Leave DB Connection Open
Mar 20, 2008Hello, I have always closed my db connections asap after opening them and have always thought this was the best practice. But now I am wondering if I can just leave the connection open.
I created a windows service which runs on a timer and executes every 5 seconds. The problem is that the code takes longer than that to process and the code may be executing three times at once. Im worried that since I use the same connection each time the code executes that a connection opened by the first run through may be closed or reopened by the second or third running of the code resulting in an error. The connection is opened and closed about 10 times each time the timer event fires. Should I open the connection once and leave it open when the service is started and close it when it is stopped or on any error?
Thanks
At What Throughput Should I Leave A Connection Open ?
Feb 3, 2005I am used to writing applications that hit the database "every so often" and am happy with opening and closing the connection to SQL Server for each one.
I am now writing an application that monitors a table where rows are written to it by a 3rd party application at possibly several rows per second. My job is to "pickup" those rows, analyse the data and move them to different tables. This will be done with a timer which is currently set to tick every second.
My question is: At what stage should I start to think about keeping open a permanent connection to the database ?
1 row per second ?
100 rows per second ?
Any suggestions appreciated.

List Causes Adobe To Leave Blank Page When Exporting
Jan 11, 2008Hi,
My report page settings are as follows
page width 28cm
page height 21cm
all margins 1cm
My report when rendered to the screen outputs the correct number off pages...HOWEVER when i export it to adobe i get a trailing blank page which accompanies each page break.
Can anyone please help ?
My report has a table which is bounded to a list with separate fields at the top of the list specifying the username in a text field and the table displays the user details, For each user there is a page break.
I have notice when i got rid off the list everything is ok, however the list seems to be within the boundaries of the report
Is It Bad Practice To Leave A SqlCeConnection Open Through The Duration Of A Mobile Application?
Jan 24, 2008I know that with traditional SQL systems, it is important to only open connections to a sql server when they are needed. However, since there is no "server" in mobile apps, is it bad practice to leave one open throughout the duration of an application?
The application is going to be constantly reading and writing to the data tables and it seems like it might be a good idea to leave it open.
Thanks!

Leave The Connection Open Or Always Open And Close Immediately?
Jun 7, 2006Hi there,
I got an approach like that:
1) Read something from DB - check the value, if true stop if false go on2) Read the second Value (another SQL Statement) - check the value etc.
Now I could open the connection at 1) and if I have to go to 2) I leave the connection open and use the same connection at 2). Is it ok to do that?
The other scenario would be opening a connection at 1), immediately close it after I read the value and open a new connection at 2).
Thanks for the input!

Timeout In SQL2k
Jun 23, 2001I moved my DB from SQL7.0/NT to SQL2k/WIN2k.
Everything was fine from the last few months but suddenly I start getting timeout errors.
I checked and rebuild all the indexes - there are no deadlocking at all - everything looks quite normal to me - I am all lost now as what to monitor and where to see for this timeout error messages.
Anyone has any idea as what is going on what should I check to see if that's the cause.
I also ran Profiler but there too nothing too long as to timeout.
My sql box is attached to IIS box and pager is set on IIS box.
The problem is not with IIS box cuz when I shift the applications to another SQL box everything runs fine and there is no timeout messages.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Restoring SQL2K% To SQL 2K - Possible?
Jan 23, 2007I have been sent a backup file from a supplier that I have been trying to restore. I have succesfully installed it on my SQL2K5 instance, however, we need to put it on our SQL Server in our DMZ . . . Which is running SQL2K . . . Supplier was informed of this and says that you can restore to a SQL2K DB as long as you use SQL Management Studio . . . Tried that and got an error message Saying That Restore Headeronly is terminating - Too many backup devices specified. . . only 64 are allowed. . . .Supplier suggests that its a SP4 issue . . . Installed SP4 and tried again . . . Got the Same Error again (SQL Server Error :3205)
Am I out of my gourd I am sure that restoring a SQL2K5 Backup to a SQL2K instance is not possible?
I should say that I am Running SQLExpress as my 2K5 Instance and MSDE as my 2K instance . . . Before I invest more time on this and trying it on a development server running Standard edition.
Thanks All

Sp_addlogin (SQL2K)

Hello,
I am trying to script out a new login in SQL 2000. I can script the login, but I am trying to assign the correct permissions, (e.g. db_datawriter, db_owner) and I am have trouble scripting the permissions. Here is a snippet of what I am looking to accomplish in my script. Remeber, this is 2000 not 2005...
-- This works
exec sp_addlogin @loginame = 'LoginName'
,@passwd = 'Password'
,@defdb = 'Database'
go
-- This doesn't. I am not even sure if this is what I need...
exec sp_addrolemember @rolename = 'AdminCVB'

SQL2K Login Issue
Aug 31, 2004hi,
i'm hoping somone can shed some light on why this isn't working. basically i have a webform which that passes data back to a database (SQL Server 2000) and uses Windows authentication to perform the UPDATE, INSERT, whatever.
i've defined a role within the database, specifically for the application. for my tests, i've added a global security group from my Windows domain to the logins on the SQL instance. this group has been added to the custom role in the application database.
since i'm a member of this global security group, i was under the impression that my credentials would pass through and everything would be ok, however, it's not recognizing my login - or others in the group as well.
the application web (in IIS5.0) has been set to Windows Authentication, and i've flagged the impersonate=true attribute in the app's web.config file.
lastly, my connection string for the sqlconnection object grabs my user name (or the current user for that matter) in the format of DOMAINaccount. for the sake of argument, i was able to successfully connect using a custom SQL login that was assigned to the custom role.
the error that's returned specifically states that the "Login failed for DOMAINaccount"
any thoughts on what's up here? i guess i'm not understanding SQL Server security to well. thanks in advance.
Restrict Access To DB On SQL2K

Is there a way to prevent new users from accessing a SQL2000 db (like to put it into DBO mode) while leaving current users finish their running jobs.
I tried Alter Database and sp_dboptions and both in SQL2000 requires to close all current users. It was working in SQL7 but not in 2000.

SQL2K Bind Failed
Jun 11, 2004I tried to install SQL Server 2K on a W2K server running IIS and SSL. The SQL installation failed until I deleted the certs from my system. Now, the SQL logs say "SuperSocket Info: Bind failed on TCP port 1433". I have tried everything on the MS KB, TechNet, and MSDN sites that I could find. I have also uninstalled IIS and Certificate Services from the server. Since there are no certs left, I suspect that SQL Server is getting in it's own way on startup. Does anyone know of a way to trap/log this kind of conflict?
View 14 Replies View RelatedSQL2K: Deadlock On Lock
Sep 10, 2007Hello,
I have scheduled a job using Job Agent in SQL2K (Management). Every once in a while i get an error when i view job history:
Executed as user: xxx. Transaction (Process ID 53) was deadlocked on lock | communication buffer resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. [SQLSTATE 40001] (Error 1205). The step failed.
The process ID changes for every error. Sometimes its 51, 56, or 54 as well.
I have checked several times, but there is no other process that runs at that time. I even rescheduled it for a different time, but even then it fails about once every week or two.
How can i check what is the other procedure it is deadlocking with, if it is? OR what exactly is the problem, if it is not with any other process?
Any help and/or guidance is much appreciated.
Thanks,

EM Won't Connect Locally On SQL2k Box
Jan 24, 2002Here is a strange one. Have a sql2k box that I upgraded from 6.5 back. Conversion went fine, everything was ok with the sql install. Created and scheduled maintenance jobs while logged on to the box. A few days after the conversion, Enterprise Manager cannot register the server(error message is 'Data source name not found and connection libraries do not exist'). This inablilty to register the server only occurs when working on the server itself. You can register the server while connecting from another box with EM.
So, do some checking and find that the box itself does not recognize SQLSRV32.dll (etc) as even existing on the box BUT IT DOES EXIST in the normal places, it was a working install just a few days prior. As far as the box is concerned, the network libraries do not exist. Therefore, cannot register the server locally, cannot create a Data Source using the SQLSRV32 driver, cannot start the Sql Server Agent(so no scheduled back ups, etc).
Went so far as to re install the connectivity and client tools, which did not fix the issue.
Does anyone have any ideas?
