Hello,
I wonder which differences there are between Sql Server and Sql Server Compact Edition. In which case to use Compact Edition rather than Normal Edition ?
For example, which version is it preferable to use for a database which is just use to persist some informations of a single program ?
Thanks,

What is the true difference between FlatFile and File in terms of ConnectionManagerType? If FlatFile is just a subset, why does SSIS architechture need it? What is the reasoning behind?

What is the difference between shrinking a DB with that of a file.
When you select a DB to shrink will it not shrink all the files in it.
Because when I select Files to shrink it does not prompt me with
a specific file.
So I am confused as to why SQL server 2K5 asks if you need to shrink DB or FILE
Tnx

Hello,
I am transfereing Data into text format.
The datas are about 5 table and has almost 50000 to 2 million rows.
I am using the same query for BCP and DTS. But I find the dreference between those. I mean DTS is taking less memory and more time than BCP to complete the process .
Anybody can share any comment for this issue ?.

Is there really a difference of approach?
I have several things to consider in an estimating database. Production, Shipping, Field Work, Field Hardware, etc...
All of the above have account numbers. Now I was wondering, would there be any benifit to having one table or several tables?
One Table Example
Account (PK) | Category | Description
or
Multiple tables
tbProduction
Account (PK) | Description
tbShipping
Account (PK) | Description
tbProducts
Account (PK) | Description
etc.....
I like having the tables split up and/or all in one.
Any thoughts, pros / cons?

Are SQL Server Express & SQL Server 2005 one & the same thing? Or is the former a part of the latter? Actually when I was downloading Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, I was given the option to download Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition as well; so I am getting confused between SQL Server Express & SQL Server 2005.
I installed SQL Server 2005 in my WinXP Pro m/c. from the Microsoft website (after re-installing WinXP Pro since XP became corrupt). Earlier I used to login to Management Studio Express using my m/c. name followed by a followed by SQLEXPRESS as the server name. So if my m/c. name is MyPC, then I used to login to Management Studio Express using MyPCSQLEXPRESS as the server name but now when I try to login to Management Studio Express using the above server name i.e. MyPCSQLEXPRESS, then an error gets thrown saying
Cannot connect to MyPCSQLEXPRESS.
Now how do I find out what's the server name so that I can login to create & manage databases in Management Studio Express?
Please note that after re-installing WinXP Pro, my m/c. name has remained the same; I didn't change it.
Thanks,
Arpan

I have a view in a database called PS_EMPLMT_SRCH_US and it joins around five tables. I have two databases which are identical structures including data. But when run one query
ie "SELECT * FROM PS_EMPLMT_SRCH_US where EMPLID like '00918%' and OPRCLASS like 'ALLPANLS' ",
response time is totally different even though both databases have same data and same indexes. When I looked at showplan and stats time, both are totally different and order of table fetch is totally different. Is there any idea why this difference? Any help would be appreciated.
