We just installed another SQL Server and we need to export data from one server to the other
inorder to set up replication. When I tried to export the database from the one server to the other
I got the following error:
The license for the installation of MS SQL Server on your source and destination connection
does not permit the use of DTS to transer data.
Is this because of the setting we used to install the server?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if you could direct me to additional documention
to deal with this, that would be great.
Thank you.

I created a maintenance plan with full user database backups, backup files cleanup, and database shrink.
I did it in SSMS and it also created "Reporting Task for subplan-{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}".
It works fine in the development server where I created the plan. I imported the same into other environments test, stage, and prod. I did use BIDS to change the connection string manual "Local server connection". The job runs fine in other environments but it fails at the end where the "Reporting Task for subplan" is executed. I looked at the dtsx file codes and I could not find anything wrong.
I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!
can anyone tell me if they know of a way to automate the update process from development servers to live server, with little interference from an administrator
I have a development team that are constantly updating their databases along with their ASP code, and want to publish changes an a weekly basis. They have asked me for a way to take their new structures, tables, procedures etc, and copy them to the live servers, but NOT to interfere with existing customer data.
Funny I know – and I hate the idea btw :(
Any references, contacts, 3rd party tool recommendations welcome,
I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server. 2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers. 3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are: ------------------------------ TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054) ------------------------------ And ------------------------------ The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed. Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB". OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to SQL sever and am using SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.
I've written my query that returns too many rows to be looked at Excel, and so wish to view and perform my calculations in SAS.
However, I don't know how to export the data I am getting in to SAS. I have tried using the Results to File option, but when I try import this into SAS it doesn't like the data.
Is there some option I need or is there anyway I can export the data to SAS.
Hi,I have a bunch of stored procedures (some using temp tables) which giveout tables which are then used in crystal to give out reports. Thesestored procs are run dynamically depending on values users select onformsSome people instead of reports want Comma Seperated Files (CSVs). I amtrying to find a good way of outputting to csv with using either sqlserver or ASP. I tried two ways but none of them were ideal1st methodfirst way i tried was creating a record set in asp and then using thefollowing to output the data in a comma delimited row and writing tofile.Response.Write RecordSet.GetString(,,", ",vbCrLf,"")The problem with the above was with data sets greater than 10,000records the processing time increases exponentially because of memoryusage ( i found other people with the same problem)So i tried the following2nd methodI used bcp using the master.dbo.xp_cmdshell command to output thecsv. The problem with that is that the bcp executes the stored procthree times and also doesnot give out column headers. So i had to runthe stored proc once in ASP and get the headers from the record set andstore it to a text file and then run the stored proc in bcp and sendthe output to a csv file. Then merge the two files into a third file.The problem with this method is that it takes around 4 times as long torun as just the stored proceedure and also i have to create 3 filesinstead of one.I would appreciate any suggestions you have to output the csv from astored proc in sql server. Note users have to do this dynamically whenthey submit a form so cant use the query analyzer or enterprise managertools.Thanks for your time and help:)
I have a report which is just a simple table with only the detail row (which then as about a dozen columns)
I have uploaded this to report manger. The report generates correctly and I export to CSV.
But when I open the CSV file there are Headings at the top. I want to know is there any way of getting rid of there headers so it is jus the data which shows.
(The headers seem to be the name of the textbox column in reporting services)
I'm not sure if this is possible or not, still new to RS. I need to export a file in CSV format but a vendor needs the very first character to be a '~'. I've tried adding that to the first column name without sucess and RS won't allow me to name it with the ~ in the properties box. Any ideas? Thanks
i have created a SQL Server DB in a Web Site. (Not a SQL Server Project) so its a DB in a Web Site. how do i export the Database so that i can use it with other Projects?
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).
hi all, I am getting problem while importing data from excel file. I am bale to do the same with flat files. But when i do with excel files its throwing error : format error. pls help me in this regard. and How to export data into export files from query analyser..
Hi all. Im tryin to export (DTS) my some SQL server tables, many of which contain 'bit' datatypes. However, when DTS/SQL Serv. moves these bit datatypes out, it changes bit values to True/False values - which makes sense - however these are all going to plugin to web frontends where the SQL specifies condtions like: "if column1 = 0 then" etc.. Is there anyway to get SQL server to export bit datatypes as just numeric values of 0/1?
My company just purchased another company and I was tasked with extracting the data from the ACT! database that the purchased company was using for it's Contact Management to import into our CRM. The problem is that all of the contact data is in FoxPro .dbf files that I can extract from, but all of the sales and history data appears to be in unfamiliar file formats that I can not get to from the SQL QA, EM or Access. When I open them up in notepad, the data is a mess. The ACT export feature only appears to export this same Contact data which is pretty useless without everything else. There are third party plug ins that claim to be able to export all of the data, but I have only seen one that I really like and I do not really want to throw down $250 for something we are going to use once for 15 minutes. The trial version only lets you dump about 100 records. I googled the heck out of this and I could'nt find a solution.
I was wondering if there is a way to export and recode data at the same time with SQL.
For example I have gender information coded as 1 or 2 in my table and I need to upload the information to a different application that needs M or F. Is there a way to export to a new table and recode at the same time ?
I would like to export data to a excel file using a stored procedure. I'm not sure how to go about this or if it is even possible. Can someone point me to a link to show me how to do this?
I recently found out that there is no easy way to distribute a MSSQL 2005 database to MSSQL Server 2000. Most forums that I have read say to use the DTS facility to import the data into the SQL 2000, however this is not an option (for a variety of reason I won't go into).
The next best option in my mind is to script the entire database, including the data into one or a few script files then run them on the SQL 2000 server to recreate the database. Unfortunately, exporting the data, what I thought would be a fundamental feature, isn't part of SQL 2005.
So does anybody know of a good (free) scripting program that will allow me to export the entire database from a server? I've tried: - Free program from the CodeProject.com (program dies when there's more than 5000 lines) http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/ScriptDatabase.asp -SQL Scripter www.sqlscripter.com (Doesn't script table which don't have primary keys, and produces a script for each object instead of just a single file)
I'd probably like a program which only creates a single script, as the database has over 200 tables and I don't want to have to go through this process everytime I need to distribute the DB (which will be often).
The only other option I can think of is a program which converts an SQL 2005 backup to a 2000 version.
Hi Guys, In Sql Server Management Studio, when I have run a query and I want to export to file, how do I include the headers (field Names) in the first row to be exported also.
Ive installed and imported a db into SQL2005 Express. I now need to export the db to an excel file but I cannot find the import/export feature. Ive tried navigating to the db within the SMSE inteface and right clicking but there is no options available to carry out the task.
I'm trying to export data from SQL. Can anyone help. I have commented my script below and have managed to create a table, insert using 'bulk insert' - now I want to export the data out. I'm getting an error message saying 'cannot use the output option when passing to a stored procedure'.
comment ----------- drop table for re-runs ! -----------
drop table JET go

I have several dbs I export to Access each month and have not had this problem before. When I try exporting now, I get the message "cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types". I know I can change the data type from varchar to nvarchar to correct this but there are dozens and dozens of tables in these dbs and changing all of them is not an option. Any suggestions first to how to accomplish the export and second why this is suddenly happening. I run SQL Server 2005 Standard and keep my updates current on my OS's and applications.
I want export data from Excel to new SQL Server table,
select * into mytable FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=c:sample1.xls;HDR=YES', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
But i am getting following error message
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.". Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
