I am using Access 2000 to link tables from SQL Server. The tables are linked using ODBC DSN`s. I am running a query to return some rows to Access, but once I have returned the rows, I want to drop the linked table connection to SQL Server, because it is locking a table on the server. I think I need to write a bit of VBA code, but I don`t know where to start. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
View 1 RepliesI need to drop a database but cannot because there are 2 open connections that I cannot drop via EM. Is there a way to do this without starting and stopping??
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello all,
I need to restore my database and I keep getting a database in use error. Can someone tell me the easiest way to drop all connections to a database and open it exclusively?
Also, I'm not sure where this connection is coming from, there is another database on the same machine that has user connected, can these connections be the problem?
Thanks

a problem?
Thanks in advance

Are there any issues with dropping registration of a SQL 6.5 database and then registering it again. I think this is what I am going to have to do because a consultant we are using decided to change the security from standard to Integrated. Now we are getting the following error when we are in the SQL Enterprise Manager and trying to open TAP:
A connection could not be established to TAP[SQL Server]Login failed:Reason:Not associated with trusted SQL Server connection.
Thanks for any help
I have managed to successfully connect to another SQL Server instance using a linked server.
I can then do my select statement like this: select * from [servernameinstancename].[databasename].[databaseowner].[tablename]
I just wanted to know how I can drop the database on the other instance?I have tried doing: DROP DATABASE [servernameinstancename].[databasename].
Dear All,
i'm planning to drop all the non clustered indexes (as they are not congigured well) on production database, and run the latest script to create fresh non clustered indexes on specific columns.
now my doubts are
1)will the replication affect with dropping and recreating of indexes?
2)query to drop all the non clustered indexes on that database....
can i use the query delete from sysindexes where indid>1
will the query works for me to drop all the non clustered indexes?
3)is it necessary to generate a snapshot again after creating the new indexes? or can i drop and run at subscriber also?
please guide me in this regard

Even you learn 1%, Learn it with 100% confidence.
There are procs to add linked servers, and procs to add and delete linkedserver logins, but I dont see a proc to delete the actual linked server definition. And yet EM will drop the definition of a linked server. So the obvious question is "How do you code the dropping of a linked server?
Thanks!

I have an asp.net 4.5 webpage that has a detailsview on it that has a bound field that points to a SQL Server 2012 datetime field (CompDate). This field is supposed to capture date AND time of completion of a record (this is a data gathering project).
<asp:BoundField DataField="CompDate" HeaderText="CompDate" SortExpression="CompDate" Visible="False" />
The code that inserts the datetime:
If e.NewValues.Item("Complete") = True Then
Dim dt As DateTime = Now
e.NewValues("CompDate") = dt
e.NewValues("UNAME") = Membership.GetUser.ToString
End If
Everything works great, except when the captured date/time is sent to sql server, the time portion is getting dropped and only zeros are getting stored in the time portion.
Results:
CompleteUNameCompDate

I've tried different formatting options and converting to string..
All,
I've a VB6 application that writes data to a SQL Server database using ADODB in the VB6 code. My market has been the United States. My application is written for the English language.
I've a new user in Germany. Unfortunately, every number that contains a decimal is now stored in the SQL Server database with the decimal dropped. For example, 29.15 gets stored as 2915. I've done some searching and found the culprit is probably the OS Regional Language setting. The Germany user is using German. So it seems ADODB is expressing "29.15" as "29,15", and SQL Server is having a fit when ADODB is trying to write to the database.
My client is reluctant to changing all their user profile language settings to German (or the other option, changing their German language setting decimal symbol option to "."). They fear other applications may be affected.
Can anyone suggest a solution on my software end? Does ADODB have some options of which I'm unaware that will ignore the regional language setting and express decimal-containing numbers simply as "."? Or is there a setting in SQL Server to compensate?
I appreciate all and any help. Thanx!
I have a query that produces unique rows. However, some of the unique rows have the column called testname that has the same test listed more than once. All I want to do is drop the older testname and keep the testdate column.
Select
Distinct
TestID,
TestDate,
TestName
From third.test
I want to keep testdate in the query....guessing I need to put in to a temp table then drop the oldest one somehow by doing a subquery using Select Max....
I am finding it difficult to find an example that allows for insertion of additional rows into a table, without dropping the table I'm inserting into. Or inserting specific values. Like this example..
[URL] ....
I have 6 table I am formatting the data to conform to the final table as I'm inserting it into, but none of these examples gives me the example needed. I am using SQL 2012.
<code>
SELECT
CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),[FName]) + ' ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),[LName]) AS [CustName]
,CAST('ALARMCOM' as nvarchar(8)) as VendorName
,CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),[CUSTOMER_CS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER]) AS [Cust_ID]
,CONVERT(VARCHAR(40),[Charge_Description])as [ChargeType]
,CASE
[Code] ....
1. I have a simple JOIN statement between A and B, e.g. Cities A JOIN Countries B:
SELECT A.City_Name, B.Country_Code, B.Country_Area
FROM Cities A
JOIN Countries B
ON B.Country_Id = A.Country_Id
WHERE B.Country_Type='ABC';
That statement works absolutely fine, very fast (less than a second) and returns me 2 records
2. I need to replace Country Area column with 1 for Europe and 0 for all the rest. I implement so in the following way:
SELECT A.City_Name, B.Country_Code, CASE B.Country_Area WHEN 'EUR' THEN 1 ELSE 0 AS Country_Area
FROM Cities A
JOIN Countries B
ON B.Country_Id = A.Country_Id
WHERE B.Country_Type='ABC';
Now to get the same two records it takes 03:55 minutes (!)
I have looked into Estimated Execution Plan, but couldn't spot any difference - all straight forward.
It is SQL 2012 SP1 with compatibility level set to 110
I want to create and drop the global temporary table in same statement.
I am using below command but I am getting below error

Hi there,
Here we have got a
asp.net application that was developed when database was
sitting on SQL server 6.5. Now client has moved all of their databases
to SQL server 2000. When the database was on 6.5 the previous
development team has used oledb connections all over. As the databases
have been moved to SQL server 2000 now i am in process of changing the
database connection part. As part of the process i have a login
authorization code.

My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277 I am supposed to:
1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder. The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this: All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication. I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.
I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it. Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error. Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing. I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do. I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled. I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss. I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error. I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys
need your expert advise on this. in my previous company in our application we used to have 1 sql server connection open all the time to access database .
in current company ,framework does it differently like opening connection to database only when needed and closing it straight away.when you look at profiler when doing multiple things in our app one will see many connections opened by our application.
my question is which approach is good for performace ?
Thanks for advise.

Hi there,
This is probably a really obvious question but I have been struggling with answering it for about two days now. (I may even be in the wrong forum) I work in a company with an internal network set up. I have been trying to connect to our website via FTP and it has worked ... well it did in the beginning. I think the server that our website is hosted on is a Unix server - this is a guess from reading the FTP transcripts of the various programs I've downloaded and tried out in an attempt to connect to it.
What happened:
I was working on an .ASP page in Dreamweaver, hit save without thinking, realised I wanted to make a few additional changes before uploading it onto the server, cancelled the transaction and voila. I haven't been able to connect to the remote server since.
Depending on the FTP program that I am using, I get a connection error along these lines:
- "Connection to the server was reset" "The server may temporarily be down or unavailable or not accepting connections"
I am a big newbie at this. I have turned off the windows firewall and tried turning on and off passive IP. I can connect from home but not from inside the building which has me think this has to do with a stray setting somewhere. My housemate suggested I try using the "telnet" command from DOS and see can I get any sort of connection from work. If I can't, he said, it's probably a firewall on the internal network itself.
Any other suggestions?
Help would be welcome!
Thanks.
