Could the SQL2000 Desktop Engine be bought individually or they one
have to buy the Enerprise version in order to get the Desktop Engine?
All we need right now is the Desktop Engine.
Thank you very much

Hi,
I did have SQL Server Express, but have had Visual Studio Pro installed, which comes with SQL Server 2005 Enterprise.
I'm getting this error about the 4Gb limit when trying to restore a database.
How do I get around this problem?

Can I migrate from SQL Exp. Edition 2005 to the Standard version, can that be done? If not, what do I need to know? If yes, what should I be looked out for?
Thanks,
Hi All,
I have been using the 180 day evaluation version of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and I have my license key now for the purchased version. I read on the Microsoft site I am able to upgrade to the non-trial version without uninstalling the eval version. But for Standars Edition Microsoft states:
"... If upgrading to the fully licensed version of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition, Workgroup Edition, or Developer Edition, it is recommended that you uninstall the 180-day trial version of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition before installing the fully licensed version of the other editions..."
Is there anyway out where I don't need to uninstall my eval database server?
If it is necessary to uninstall eval version, then what is the best way to preserve all my current databases?
Thanks,
Sumit
We have been using the 180 day evaluation version and I have my license key now for the purchased version. I read on the Microsoft site I am able to upgrade to the non-trial version without uninstalling the eval version. But it doesn't tell me HOW to do it. I was expecting a menu option, maybe on the About Screen of Management Studio to enter it. (How naive is that?) Is there a simple way to tell the Eval version I am now licensed?
TIA

We downloaded and installed the trial software of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition a month ago. We have purchased a fully licensed version of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and would like to apply the licensed version to our workstation clients since their SQL software will eventually expire. Our SQL Server is not an issue since we purchased a new Server and installed the new licensed version of SQL on it.
Is there an easy way to accomplish this or is an uninstall & reinstall of SQL on every workstation required?
Thanks,
ChrisB
I just received my licensed disks for upgrading my SQL Server 2005 Evaluation version to a fully licensed version. Do I simply run the two disks over top of the evaluation version or is it a little bit more complicated? Any input would be greatly appreciated. A little new to SQL.
Thanx

Thanks!
My organization supports both SQL 7 and SQL 2K. Therefore I have the Enterprise Manager
for SQL 2K on my desktop (it accesses both SQL 7 & SQL 2K, but the SQL 7 EM won't access
both).
I installed the SQL 7 desktop edition on my NT 4 (SP 6) workstation, but only the server (not
client connectivity or client tools).
When I attempt to perform a new server registration using EM (with the desktop server running),
I get the following message:
"SQL Server does not exist or access is denied"
I am attempting to logon as "sa" with a blank password since this will be my very first access of
the installed DB.
Startup of server specifies that the "local system" account be used. Server starts up fine as best
as I can tell.
For client connectivity I have both TCP and NAMED PIPES available.
Any help would be very much appreciated!!!!
Thanks Gary Andrews
andrews_gary_w@solarturbines.com
P.S.
Where blank passwords are used, do I enter a single space or not enter anything
and just press enter?
Is it necessary to have a MS Loopback Adaptor to install SQL Server desptop edition at my home ? ( Otherwise i am unable to connect to the server from the EM )
Thanks,
Deepak.
I have installed Sql 7.0 desktop edition on Win 98 with IE5 and am having a problem starting the Sql server.
It auto registered the server under my machine name. It was returning a network connection error so I deleted it and tried to add one with the name (local). Enterprise Manager then returned an error saying one was already registered under that name.
Anyideas?
Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
View 21 Replies View RelatedI have read all posts in this forum, but the answers for the main questions are still not completely clear for me. My scenario is smilar than other described cases.
I would like to send a large amount of data to a Windows CE device which runs SQL Server Mobile Edition 2005. Replication is not possible, cause the desktop size of software sometimes uses Oracle or earlier versions of MSSQL Server (for e.g. MSSQL 7.0).
For syncrhonizing data we have two possibilities:
1. sending the data in some format (csv, xml, etc...) to the Windows CE device, parse this file and insert the data into a database, the speed of this is unacceptable, so if it is possible I wouldn't like to use this method
2. Create the SDF file on desktop side, it would be very fast, because it makes unnecessary the post processing on a slow Windows CE device. So please give me a short (YES / NO is completely enough) answer to this: is there any *LEGAL* way to create an SDF file for SQL Server Mobile Edition without buying VS2005 or MSSQL2005 licenses for the desktop computer?
Thx for any help in advance. If the question was answered clear earlier, sorry for wasting time. I think a lot of us struggling with this problem.
Hello,
Is it possible to create a .SDF file at the develop machine?I want to write an exe which creates a sdf.So, my customer will be able to create a sdf and import this sdf to the device.
Thanks.
Hi,
I want to jumpstart my learning of SQL Server so I downloaded the Express edition onto my desktop in the office and also onto my laptop. I usually connect the two machines (through a LAN) to update whatever I was able to do at home while in the office.
What should I do in order to view or edit whatever I started on the laptop from the desktop? Would the databases I create on one be accessible through the other machine for editing and the likes?
Glint.
I have a very simple application that is desktop and windows mobile. I am just starting work on it so the options are wide open for now. My goal is a simple database that will sync columns on both sides.
The SQL Compact Edition database seems like the perfect database to use for this application.
The only way I currently know of to sync a PDA database to the desktop, however, is to use IIS and SQL server on the desktop side and then use the ADO.NET sync stuff.
I don't want to have to set up IIS and SQL server on my client's computers. It will be a mass market product and that is just inviting a ton of support that I don't want to have to deal with. The application is too simple and cheap for that.
I know I can go the old fasion ActiveSync component route, but that is such a pain. I could also use a 3rd party solution, but again, too expensive for this application.
My question is whether anyone knows of a simple solution.
Is there any way in SQLCE to query a remote database and do updates to it? Could the desktop application get access to the PDA SQLCE database or the other way around?
Any help would be great. I have the experience to write an ActiveSync component myself. That is not the problem. It is just such a pain and it seems like in today's day and age I shouldn't have to.
Hello,
Everybody knows that Upgrade.exe is not a win32 application.
Since it is now possible to connect SQL CE 3.1 database with Framework 2.0 and SQL CE 3.1, I am wondering if someone is aware of a method to convert SQL CE 2.0 database to SQL CE 3.0 with Desktop Framework ?
(--> I have a lot of SQL CE 2.0 databases where I would like to connect avoiding use of a PDA. In order to do that, I need to convert all of them)
Thanks

Hi all:-
How do I upgrade my local sql server 7 to sql 2000 ? Do I just put in the sql server 2000 CD and run it or is there an upgrade CD ? I have lots of stuff on my sql 7 and don't want to lose it.
Thanks in advance!
my application has a good amount of data that is specific to each company (where there is only one user). i am currently setting it up as a access project, but was wondering about another route. to store the local data would there be an advantage to setting it up as a access project, and use the sql server desktop engine for the data, or should i stick with mdb tables?
