I couldn't remember which computers I had already installed sp2 on so checked but one computer (running Windows Server 2003 and SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition) seems to have a discrepancy. SELECT @@VERSION returns (Build 3790: Service Pack 1) but the status bar shows "9.0 SP2". Thanks for any insight into this.

I have a SQL 7 db that I use a DTS package to import Oracle data into. The package works fine and imports all the appropriate data. However, if I use an Access 2000 database to attach to the data via ODBC (using the MS SQL Server driver), the negative sign is dropped when displaying data in a table, query, or report.
Same problem in SQL Server - if I query the SQL 7 data via the Query Analyzer, the negative signs are dropped. However, if I query the SQL data using the Enterprise Manager (i.e., Open Table...Return All Rows via right click on the table), the data shows up properly with the negative signs there. Bottom line - the data is correct, but doesn't get displayed correctly in QA or via ODBC.
What gives?! Can anyone explain to me the "connections" that occur between EM and QA? Looks like QA uses a "temporary" ODBC connection to talk to the data, while the EM connects "directly" to the data. Also, what gives with the MS SQL Server ODBC driver - why wouldn't it display the negative signs? Is there a better SQL Server ODBC driver that I should/could use? I've tried configuring the ODBC connection differently, but to no avail.
Any help is greatly appreciated, as the data in question is being used in court and absolutely HAS to be accurately displayed.
Thanks!

It returns these 16 records, 10 from the 1st table and 6 from the second. If I just remove the UNION operator and run them seperatly I get 11 from the 1st table and 6 from the second.
The record I am losing is the second of these two, but with the fields I am selecting they appear identical:
R,JosephField Operations Director INULL267.00001510382004octoberTRADITIONAL BOOKING
R,JosephField Operations Director INULL267.00001510382004octoberTRADITIONAL BOOKING
Is there any reason why the UNION statement is making that second record vanish? Is there a way I can alter the statement so I can run the query with the UNION and not lose records?
Thanks,
Hi There,
Good Day :-)
How could I correct the erroneous value on the property window of an SQL Table.
My problem is that, if I am going to display the property window of Table1, the 'Rows' information displays 115. However, if I am going to execute - Select Count(*) from Table1 then it returns 117. How could I fix this glitch?
Please Help :-)
Guys
Here's a strange one - anyone else come across this :
In SQL2K
select cast(cast ('08-dec-2005' as datetime ) as int) returns 38692
In Excel2002 SP3
Put the same date in a cell and format it as a number and you get 38694
Presumably the products have a different start date

I ran the following query in Query Analyzer for a 7 column table.SELECT c.name,c.colid FROM syscolumns c WHERE c.id=925962375 ORDER BYc.colidThe results were:I_CSD 1X_STE_XML2I_USR_LCK4T_CRT_RCD5I_USR_CRT_RCD6T_UDT_RCD7I_USR_UDT_RCD8If I use the information_schema view (SELECT column_name,ordinal_position FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name ='CSD_XML') I get the same results.The problem is that the colids go from 2 to 4 and the colids gothrough 8 when there are only 7 columns.At one time there was another column in the table, but it has sincebeen dropped and isn't there anymore. It seems that the colids insyscolumns did not update when the column was dropped.Is this because of the way I dropped the column? Is there anything Ican do now that it has happened?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi Friends,
I have a question. At my home computer i downloaded and installed VWD. As usual it also installed Sqlexpress as part of the installation(i checked the option). Later on i downloaded Management studio separately so i am fine with my home computer as every thing is free.
But at work we decided to develop application using VS 2005 and Sqlserver 2005. So we bought and installed VS2005 professional edition at work and it also installed Sqlexpress during the installation as a defualt desktop engine. I am fine with that too. But i am not understing where do i get the Management studio? Is it some thing i could get it off the web for free or what? I am not sure we would have an option while installing the VS 2005 professional that also does install management studio and we need to check that option. I am not sure if we could get the management studion off the web for free and and evelop applications.
Please advise. Thanks -L
I want to find whether SQL Server 2005 x86 is installed or SQL Server 2005 x64 is installed programatically(Any API would do.) If anyone can recommend a registry key that I can rely on find whether it is a 32 bit or 64 bit SQL Server that would suffice.

I'm just wondering how many people have gone to SQL 7 SP3.
Is it a case of only applying it if it fixes a particular problem you are experiencing, or have you installed it to keep with the latest version ?
Please let me have your thoughts (I'm currently running SP2).

Hey all,
How do I install a SQL Server 2005 Express to have no instance?
I have a SQL 2005 Server Enterprise which has no instance, just the server name, even when pointing to the DB, you just use the server name and the DB name.
I am not any good in SQL, but need to configure SQL Express for a project I am busy with and would like it if I could only have a name, and not an instance.
hi friends,

I'm running Sharepoint server and Visual Studio on Windows server 2003. Sharepoint has its sql (officeServer) and Visual Studio installed sql express when it was installed. I can't connect to either one in VS or anywhere else. I wanted to install the adventureWorks sql database, so as to do SDK samples, and that didn't work either. I really don't understand what's going on with sql and how to use it. I can see both are running in the SQL configuration manager. Can anyone help?

I had previously had VS2005 Beta installed from my MSDN discs. When it expired, I uninstalled it and downloaded VWD Express to install. VWD installed fine, but the SQL Server Express will not install. The VWD install package doesn't give me any feedback, just says it failed. I tried dowloading and installing SQL Express separately, and it tells me that I have to uninstall all components from other versions. I have done that, but still wont install. If I use the uninstall utility on the website, it tells me it can't find any components, and all of the components listed in the manual uninstall instructions are missing, so I can't find anything further to uninstall. (FYI: I'm running XP Pro SP2).
I'm wondering if a registry setting or something didn't get updated on uninstall. I see a registry folder for "Microsoft SQL Server" but I do not know if this could be getting in the way.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I am wondering how I can check which type of SQL Server 7 I have installed. (ie Standard/Enterprise etc) If I use @@version the following is returned:
Microsoft SQL Server 7.00 - 7.00.699 (Intel X86)
I know that the service pack number is incorporated into the version number above but I want to know the type of server I have running.
Any ideas on how I can get this information?
Cheers

I have a server that has SQL Server installed on both C and D drives. The SQL Server software is currently running from the C drive and the live databases and backups are stored on the D drive.
I need to have everything on the D drive. Is there an easy way to make the registry point to the D drive without reinstalling SQL Server? The software will needs to run from the D drive because the C drive is running out of disk space. I will also need to delete the whole C:mssql directory.
Thanks.
I have an ugent situation. Due to a failure we had to build a new db server for an application and this was done succuessfully. The application requires DTC and it was not intalled when we install SQL on the server.
How do I install DTC? Did I miss an obscure option during SQL install?

Customer has an SBS 2000 server setup, and had installed SQL Server 2000 on it. They have an application (Time Slips) which I thought could use SQL, but apparently they bought the standard edition which only supports the use of MSDE.
I thought MSDE was like SQL 2000 "lite". I want to house the MSDE database on the server, but it says it cannot find MSDE.
Do I need to uninstall SQL 2000 Server? And where do I go to install MSDE properly on the server, and what is required for each W2K Pro workstation?
Thanks!

Please forgive me if this sounds so silly, but I am a complete newbie on SQL SERVER (the only think I ve worked on so far is Access) and I need help.
I ve just installed the SQL Server 2005 and the things I have are about configuation, such as:
-sql server configuration manager
-sql server error and usage reporting
-sql server surface area configuration
-notification services command prompt
-reporting services configuration
Is that all? Did I miss anything? How am I supposed to create databases? How can I connect remotely to another server (database)?
I know I may sound stupid but Im on the beginning and I would so much appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks in advance,

Hi I had earlier installed a SQL 2000 personal Edition and with it I also installed a database called AdventureWorks, that I was using along with a Book on Beginning T-SQL. Today I uninstalled the personal edition to install SQL 2000 Developer edition to work on Reporting Services. I install personal edition and installed the developer edition. When I started the enterprise manager, I could not see the AdventureWorks database. I reinstalled it several times but still cannot see it come up in the enterprise manager nor in the data analyzer. I can see that the database files -mdf and ldf - has installed ok in the directory C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData but i cannot still see the database in enterprise manager. It apprears as if enterprise manager is looking at a different folder. Can someone please help? Much appreciated.

Hi all, Im new here so il start with a little introduction of myself, My name is Arjan im 19 years old from Holland, and i work for a company to compleet my ICT Education.
My situation:
My boss gave me a server with server 2003 standard and Sql server 2005 and visual studio 2005 installed already, he asked me if i could figure out how the 'new' reporting services work, Im pretty new to SQL and the reporting service but i figured out i had to install asp.net / frameworks and IIS.
So right now i wanna start the Reporting Services Configuration Manager and i get an error that says 'Invalid namespace' and when im trying to approach by using my browser i get 'page not found' so obviously their is Alot wrong. I asked my boss if i could not reinstall everything and do it in the correct order (IIS / ASP.net / Frameworks before installing SQL server 2k5 but that was not an option because we dont seem to have the cd's anymore.
The server is not connected to any network or the internet.
My Question:
Is their any way to fix this? and if yes could anyone tell me where to start
Thanks in Advance!
ps if their is information or logs that u need in order to help me just say so :-)

hi! i d like to ask the following:
can i create a database through visual studio?
or i need to have sql server seperately installed on my computer and do it from there?
Greetings everyone.
I am relatively new to SQL2005.
During the SQL2005 installation on the on one of our servers, a component of SQL2005 was apparently not checked for installation. As a result, it was not installed. That component is called SSIS.
At least that's what my research said.
As a result, anytime we would attempt to import flat file (txt), it would fail with some SSIS package error.
We communicated this to our SQL Admin and he said he had reinstalled the SSIS component.
Yet, we are still having the same problem importing flat files.
2 questions:
1, Is there a way to verify that SSIS has or has not been installed?
2, Is it really the reason a flat file could not imported?
Thanks for your help
