Does anyone know how to automate the copying of a sql server 2005 database diagram to the clipboard so that this could for instance be accomplished from a word template. Does SQL Server 2005 expose an interface so that you can do this?
I am trying to automate the copying of a database diagram into a word doc - can be done manually by right clicking on the diagram and sending to clipboard, pasting it into the doc. The clipboard is easily accessed from within word.
We are trying to compile a difinitive procedure for our customers moving from SSAS 2000 (where we use DSO) to 2005 (where we use AMO). However, we are running into problems getting even the 2000 environment set up according to the specs.
The requirement is a domain environment where the web server and the DB server are 2 different machines. We are replicating this environment locally using 3 Virtual Machines in VMWare Player. All have Windows Server 2003 Enterprise with SP2 installed. One is our domain controller, one is the DB server (SQL Server 2000 and SSAS 2000 SP4 with the hotfix rollup installed) where almost none of our application components are installed, one is the web server with IIS and our ASP.NET application and COM components, which bundles DSO and dependencies, but no database client tools installed. We set up ASP.NET to run as a domain user, a member of Administrators group on the domain and both server machines, and also OLAP Admins on the DB server (we can limit access later once everything works).
I can successfully create the database, cube, dimensions, and partitions from the ASP.NET code calligng COM components written in VB6 which use DSO. However, creating aggregations results in a clipboard error. Here is the code:
1380 Set dsoPartition = m_dsoServer.MDStores(mvarDBName).MDStores(cubeName).MDStores(1) dsoPartition.OlapMode = olapmodeMolapIndex 1385 ' get the partition analyzer Dim dsoPartitionAnalyzer As DSO.PartitionAnalyzer Set dsoPartitionAnalyzer = dsoPartition.Analyzer
' initialize the analyzer dsoPartitionAnalyzer.InitializeDesign 1390
There is more, but the error occurs on one of the three statements between 1385 and 1390
The error is: "Can't open Clipboard" number 521 Source "DSO"
Creating the aggregations via the Storage Design wizard on the DB server directly seems to succeed.
I have created a database with several tables. I want to create a database diagram to show the relationshipbetween the tables. Below are the steps from the SQL Server 2005 documentation on how to create a database diagram. The problem is that when I right click on the Database Diagrams folder I am only given two options. They are:"Working with SQL Server diagrams" and "Refresh"There is no menu choice to create a new database diagram. Can anyone tell me what the problem here is?
To create a new database diagramIn Object Explorer, right-click the Database Diagrams folder or any diagram in that folder. Choose New Database Diagram on the shortcut menu. The Add Table dialog box appears. Select the required tables in the Tables list and click Add. The tables are displayed graphically in the new database diagram.

I am working through a book about setting up a database, though i'm doing it slightly differently, using a sql server database on a remote server rather than the local sql server express database shipped with visual studio. everything has been going fine until i've reached a part where they want to add a database diagram to the existing database. they talk about right clicking the database diagram node, and selecting add, but for some reason there is no database diagram node, so i can't do it this way. the book also says using the data>add new>diagram from the menu, but when i do this i either have no diagram option (when i have no table opened) or else the diagram option is greyed out and unselectable (when i have a table opened). any ideas on how i can add a database diagram? dc
Hi there, I just set up my AppData and i'm trying to connect the Membership to a tbl_Profile that i created.I notice there's an application_id and a user_id which are uniqueidentifiers. I've been trying create a relationship to tbl_Profile's user_id column but it won't let me saying it's not compatible. Am i suppose to set tbl_Profile's user_id column to int or uniqueidentifier? I've tried both and it won't let me... THanks!
Hi I need to do UML Data Diagram . I have Database tables available and for my task i need to pull data from those tables ,i need to expres this through UML Data diagram . I never did UML Data Diagram ,Can anyone pls tell me how to do UML Data Diagram? How it wil be?
When using the DTS to copy a db from my local MSSQL to the remote server (connecting via IP address) everything is copied ok except the diagram laying out the relations. The table relations *are* copied because the damn thing works as expected also on the remote server.
I figured out that the diagrams are saved in the sysfile 'dtproperties' but when copying using the DTS query tool from local to remote this table is not visible.
I need to remove some relations on certain tables when bulk loading new data and was just wondering how I got to copy the diagram (as opposed to creating a new diagram on the remote server and adding relations manually).
When trying to create a DB diagram on my local SQL Server 2005 db, I get the following error: cannot insert the value null into column "diagram_id" I have searched the web and can't seem to find anything on this. I just simply drag one table from my local db onto the diagram windows and try to Save it and that's what I get. I'm able to save diagrams on a networked SQL Server. Does anybody know how I can resolve this issue?

Can anyone tell me about the storage of Database Diagrams. I want to know where these diagrams are stored in SQL Server? If it is in System table, which table and how to copy these diagrams into another database?
Hi. I am getting back into working SQL now after a bunch of years and I am having problems with creating relationships with my tables.
All of the fields are defined the same, to clear that.
The error message that I am getting is: 'StaffTable' table saved successfully 'Billing Data Table 2' table - Unable to create relationship 'FK_Billing Data Table 2_StaffTable'. ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_Billing Data Table 2_StaffTable'. The conflict occurred in database 'HIMS_TRANS_UPDATE', table 'StaffTable', column 'StaffID'.

This database does not have a valid dbo user or you do not have permissions to impersonate the dbo user, so database diagramming is not available. Ensure the dbo account is valid and ensure that you have impersonate permission on the dbo account.

I€™m trying to create a DB for my course at Uni and as far as I€™m aware to create a DB on my desktop at home I need to use CE.
So I created a new DB in CE and then created some tables and I now want to create a relationship diagram but there isn€™t an option to do it. In the toolbar the relationship icon is permanently greyed out and unusable and there isn€™t a node in object explorer.
Can this be done and am I just missing something obvious? I€™m running it on Vista and I have installed the latest SP, could that cause any problems?
Im going crazy and any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is there a way to create/modify a diagram in a TransactSQL script? (I work in an environment that does not allow developers access to production databases and all changes must be made through scripts.)
