Can anyone point me to a white paper/discussion on the issues of gaining access to SQL2000 data from a SQL7 installation? I'm about to upgrade servers from 7 to 2000, but a few of the servers exchange data bi-directionally and the upgrade to both servers at the same time would be problematic; thus the need at some point to get at the SQL2000 data from the SQL7 server.
Thanks,

Does a script that run with sql7 automatically run with sql2000?
I would like to know if my script will run if I change version.
Does anyone know of any reasons(or implications) why sql7 and sql2000 databases SHOULD NOT be on the same box???
Please advise.
Thanks-
Somebody knows how to restore a database backup from SQL 7 in a Server with SQL 2000 Installed?
If somebody knows how to do it will save me a lot of work?
Thanks a lot.
Hi folks,
I'm currently on a project that'll move all my SQL7 databases into SQL2000. This is from a SQL7 production box to a new Windows2k SQL2000 box. I'm confused as to the proper way of moving all the objects over. What should i do? Any information. Thank You!
Is it possible to administer both SQL7 & SQL2000 databases from the same console ?? It's fine administering SQL 6.5 & SQL7, as 6.5 had no MMC, but it seems that SQL7 & SQL2000 have the same MMC.
Thanks,
Jazz.
Hi there,
I need to create a copy of a SQL 2000 database in another server which has SQL 7.0 installed. When I do a backup and restore, it gives me the following error :
Server: Msg 3154, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'inventmast' database.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
It seems to be like a downward compatability issue. Is there any other way to restore a sql2000 db onto sql 7 ??
Thanks

I'm upgrading a set of databases from SQL7 on one server (A) to SQL2000 on another server (B). I'd like input on the best method for moving the databases over (BCP, restore from BAK, etc), and in particular on moving the list of valid users (with default databases, permissions to databases, etc) and the DTS packages and Agent jobs.
When moving the databases, which are currently in code page 850, I might want to have them convert to the standard Latin-1 of SQL2000, though this isn't critical.
TIA,
Al
I have table with about 2 million rows. Everyday about 18000 rows are inserted. The table contain events for site security system so archiving is neccessary. I would appreicate any help or ideas. Thanks in advance.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a SQL Server 2000 box running two databases which was upgraded in error from SQL7.0 Basically we are no longer being given support as SQL2000 is not supported by the suppliers.
I therefore need to downgrade the box to SQL7.0 and was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the best method for doing this. Note that I do have a spare server to host the databases while I rebuild this server ( I am having to do a complete rebuild from scratch for other reasons ).
My thought is to transfer the databases to the spare server, rebuild the first box to SQL 7.0 and then perform a snapshot replication to transfer the data back.
Any thoughts on this would be gratefully received.
I have a backup of a SQL7 DB that i need to restore into SQL 2000. I only have the backup of the DB , i don't have access to the SQL7 server. When ever I try to restore the DB into SQL2000 nothing works, the tables and properties all restore properly and the data is there but i can't retrieve info from it. I'm trying to move a website DB from SQL7 to SQL 2000 for use with Cold Fusion. I know they're is issues with going from 7 to 2000 but i don't know what they are. If anyone could help me with this i would greatly appreciate it. I know I need to do some special steps or changes before it will work in 2000, does anyone know what these are?
Thanks in advance,

Hi, guys - looking for a bit of help/advice on moving a database fromSQL 7 to SQL 2000.We've a third party application which currently uses a SQL7 database.This database has a number of views which are owned by userINFORMATION_SCHEMA and are set as system tables. This user doesn'tactually have a login on the SQL server.We've tried the following to recreate the database on SQL2000, butwhatever we try, the views owned by INFORMATION_SCHEMA won't copy overfrom SQL7:(1) We tried the "Copy Database" wizard in SQL2000, but were gettingerrors when trying to actually copy the database (other steps workedfine).(2) We tried a restore to SQL2000 from our Legato Networker backup ofthe SQL7 database, but the views didn't come across.(3) We tried a backup from SQL7 and restore to SQL2000, but got themessage that the backup file contained a database other than the onewe wanted (it didn't - we checked the backup file several times byrestoring it to another SQL7 server).(4) We tried to import/export data from SQL7 to SQL2000, but the viewsowned by INFORMATION_SCHEMA weren't showing to add to the list ofobjects to take across.(5) We created the INFORMATION_SCHEMA login on SQL2000, and tried allrestores again, but still the views wouldn't go across.(6) We generated the SQL for all views in SQL7 and ran these onSQL2000, setting the owner to INFORMATION_SCHEMA, but wasn't surewhere to set the type to "system" (as opposed to "user).We're having problems running the third party application with aconnection to SQL2000, and want to rule out the lack of views, or viewownership, as the problem. Our third party vendor isn't coming upwith any solution in a hurry. Can anyone think of any reason why theviews are coming across when the database is restored to SQL2000?Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me of an EASY way to migrate a a database from a SQL 7 server to a SQL 2000 server (two different machines)?
Everything that I have found is only for upgrading SQL 7 to SQL 2000 and this isn't what I need.
Two groups in our company merged into one. The first group has a SQL 7 server that the lease is about to expire on and the second group (mine) has a newer SQL 2000 server that we need to move all of the databases to.
I have tried DTS. It failed. I tried backing up the 7 server and restoring to the new server. It failed.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve
Does anyone know of a good whitepaper detailing SQL7 to SQL2000 migration?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm attemting to replicate from a SQL7 box to SQL2000.
The snapshot works fine, but it fails when it tries to push the subscription to the SQL2000 box with a trust error (I don't recall the exact message). I noticed that it fails when Enterprise Mgr is configured as: "Tools/Replication/Configure Publishing, Subscribers and Distribution", Subscriber Tab, "Impersonating SQL Service Agent". It works if I change to "SA".
This is only the case when we replicate from SQL7 to SQL2K. SQL7 to SQL7 works fine with "Impersonating". Has anybody seen this behavior? Any workarounds, other than using SA?

Hi!
I need to load text data into SQL7. The tricky part (at least for me) is that this data may be duplicated.
How can I load this data discarding the duplicated rows? AFAIK, the sql job (or DTS) will fail if a primary key is violated.
TIA,

Hi,
I am trying to setup Trans Replication with updating subscriber on sql2000. One column on few tables got data with single quote (').
How do I handle in this case? Did any one come across such case?
Can I Change default QUOTED IDENTIFIER from ' (single quote) to something else (@@@) on SQL2000?
If yes, how to do?
Thanks

I have a product where we feed an SQL 7 DB data collected from Manufacturing. Presently, the Data transport Program is in charge of getting prepared data from machines and inserting into the DB. This design assumes SQL7 is always ready and able - which is not true due to customer queries or backups or etc. consuming resources. There is a low level buffer in system at manufacturing level if transport dies, but transport is ignorant of SQL distress, so keeps hammering DB's frontdoor. I'm looking for help in putting SQL server in charge of allowing data in - when resources are adequate. Seems I need a function that can determine server stress QUICKLY to forestall transport program and a buffer for records at the transport layer. Anyone know / done a system where SQL server CHECKS for waiting records or OK's an external program to send until told to stop? What indicates (reliably) low server resources? Anyone ever used MSMQ?

Help!,
I've got an access front end containing various forms and sub forms, and we have just transferred the data into SQL, for storage, we can use the majority of the forms but, I now have a problem with updating the related data.
We have had problems updating the data, we need to close the form down in order to get amended data to register, just moving onto the next record give an ODBC error message.
Even using this method some details refuse to update, although the changes are initially visible on the form you cannot get them to transfer to the datafile.
the error message we get is
[microsoft][odbc sql server driver][sql server] the text, ntext, and image datatypes cannot be used in the where,having, or on clause, except with the like or is null predicates (#306)
we've checked the structures of the tables and the code in the form (it works in the old access back end).
anybody got any ideas
Please.
Cheers

I'm importing floor machine data from SQL7 into SQL2005 using SSIS. I import the SQL7 data into a SQL2005 master table and then attempt to match the import data with the data in a current table for either update or insert of new machines. The SQL2005 master table was imported from a SQL2000 database. When I run the first Lookup import, it does not recognize the PK matches between the SQL7 import and SQL2005 master and imports all the SQL7 as new machines. The first Lookup branches to a second lookup that checks for changes in the SQL2005 master. When I run the package a second time, the second Lookup treats all the records as updates when it gets to the second Lookup, but should treat these as found. Any suggestions as to why this process is not working properly would be appreciated. Is there a way I can embed a picture of the process from SSIS in this post? Thanks
