Hi All, 1st of all happy New Year to all asp.net forum members
I am new at asp.net. I want to design a website
using asp.net as frontend and sql database as backend. I am able to
connect and add,update as well delete records when I use MsAcess and
Asp.net using the following connection strings...
I have written the servername as "PLATINUMVSdotNET" because when I
installed SQL SERVER 2000 I found a tray icon where the server name was
displaying the same (my computer name is PLATINUM).
When I used webmatrix I enterd the same server name and windows
authentication I was able to create a database but How to create
table...
I have an application that creates a new database during installation,and I've noticed some strange behavior. Once I've created thedatabase, I am able to immediately create tables and populate lookupdata, provided I remain connected to the server. If, however, Idisconnect and attempt to reconnect immediately, I'll get an errorsaying that my login is invalid for the new database.I can get around this by having my code simply wait 5 seconds beforeattempting to reconnect, but I'm curious to see if anybody here cangive an explaination for why this is happening. Here is a bit ofpseudo code to explain what I'm seeing:open new connectioncreate databasecreate tablespopulate tablesclose connection// open new connection /* can't do this yet, as it would break */for (int a=0; a<5; a++){Thread.Sleep(2000)try{open new connectionbreak;}catch{Debug("still waiting...");}}Running my version of this code, I'll see that "still waiting..."message go past 2-3 times before SQL Server wakes up and realizes thatI'm allowed to connect to it. Anybody know why?Thanks,Jason KesterExpat Software Consulting Serviceshttp://www.expatsoftware.com/---Get your own Travel Blog, with itinerary maps and photos!http://www.blogabond.com/

Unfortunately I was sent to this product by my Hosting Site since all I was trying to do was Create and Manage a User Login with authentication to my subsites in MS Frontpage. (rant: Why doesn't Frontpage support this technology???)
Anyway, I have now spent (wasted?) 8 hours downloading, installing, and tyring to configure SQL Express along with MS Visual Web Developer Express for ASP.NET 2.0 ... For the life of me I can't find detailed configuration informatin and setup information to build a SIMPLE database to connect to the VW product. Folk: this HAS to be simpler to do than what you present in the product! This is way too difficult to deal with compare with frontpage.
Is there a simple "how to" link someplace that is specific enough to preclude me from uninstalling this entire suite ????
I need to be able to create & connect to temporary databases programmatically, and NOT using the command-line, within a C# program. How would one go about doing this?
I'm using the gui to create a view which requires my connecting to another database on the same server. I've tried to create synonyms; however, I can not access them (they do not display) on the synonym tab when I try to add them to the view.
I'm a novice so any suggestions to get me on my way is greatly appreciated.
I'm attempting to use SQL statement to create tables within a new database, and I'm somewhat lacking in experience for this. Normally I'd simply create them through the GUI, but I want to get the hang of DDL statements.
I have written what I think are scripts to create one table with a primary key, create a unique index on it, and then create another table with a primary key and constrain two columns in the second table to the non-primary unique index in the first.
Code: Use SKUTracking CREATE TABLE SKUTracking.dbo.tblOraUnits
I have install the MSDE from Ofiice 2000 cd and my MSDE sql server is running fine that I can see from my tray bar with green arrow button. Now i want to create the database so can any body tell me how do i create database. Is there ne query analyser or enterprise manager by which I can create database. Also when i try to install starterkit it doen not allow me to install it. It ask me to select database from the dropdown list and when I select Localhost (only option available) and click on test connection it gives me error UnsuccessfullI am new at MSDN so please help me.
I am trying to create multiple tables in a database using a SQL Script. First i want to find all the tables that have an Identity Column as a primary key in the database. Then for all the tables that meet the Identity Column and primary key criteria, I want to create a New Table.
For example if the Orders table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_Orders. The ProdID_Orders will have 1 column called ProdID.
If the OrdersDetails table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_OrdersDetails. The ProdID_OrdersDetails will have 1 column called ProdID.
If the Employee table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_Employee. The ProdID_Employee will have 1 column called ProdID.
so the Create Table Statement for the ProdID_Orders will look like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ProdID_Orders](
[ProdID] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
The Create Table Statement for the ProdID_OrdersDetails will look like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ProdID_OrdersDetails](
[ProdID] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
This sequence will continue for all the tables in the database that have an Identity Column as a primary key. Thanks. I will appreciate some assistance with this.
Hello. I need some help constructing a query i need to run on my database. I need to add 2 fields to every table in my databse. However, some of the tables already have1 or both these fields so i need to somehow do a check if the dield already exists. If it does not create the fields. Im using a MS SQL express 2005 server. Could anyone help me construct this. Im pretty novice at SQL. Thanks.
I want my application to create a new database/tables when run for thefirst time. I have created a stored procedure to create the newdatabase named "budget". When I run the stored procedure, it createsthe budget database but the tables are created in the "master"database. Please help.
Hi there,I am trying to create a Sql Server 2005 Express database by running Sql Scripts. I have a script that has CREATE statements for tables and procedures. What I'd like it to do is create a new database with a name and a file location I specify.I searched high and low, tried lots of options with the SqlCmd tool but I keep getting authentication or other errors.Is this even possible? If so, does someone know of a good reference? I know I can create a new database and tables from within VWD but I need to create this database based on a .sql file....Thanks in advance....Imar
I am using ADOX to create linked tables in a jet database from an ODBC datasource. The tables in the ODBC data source does not have a primary key. so I am only able to create read only linked tables.But I want to update the records also. I tried adding a primary key column to the linked table while creating the link. but I am getting an error while adding the table to the catalog.
The error message is "Invalid Argument".
I use the following code for creating the linked table
Sub CreateLinkedTable(ByVal strTargetDB As String, ByVal strProviderString As String, ByVal strSourceTbl As String, ByVal strLinkTblName As String)
Dim catDB As ADOX.Catalog Dim tblLink As ADOX._Table
' Name the new Table and set its ParentCatalog property ' to the open Catalog to allow access to the Properties ' collection. .Name = strLinkTblName .ParentCatalog = catDB
' Set the properties to create the link. Dim adoxPro As ADOX.Property
We are using SQL Server 2014 and SSDT-BI 2013. We have a reporting environment where business users create objects which need to be persisted for fiscal year reporting. Let's say for instance SQLSERVER1SRVR1 they create table objects like below in the reporting environment.
Accounting2014, Accounting2015 in AccountingDB; Sales2014, Sales2015 in SalesDB; Products2014, Products2015 in ProductsDB; Inventory2014, Inventory2015 in InventoryDB etc....
These tables are persisted for auditing in a different environment SQLSERVER2SRVR2 for finance & audit folks.We would want to automate this process using SSIS to create tables in corresponding database and load data. I tried using For Each Loop container but the catch is I could loop the source or destination but how do we loop on Source & Destination at the same time (i.e when source is in AccountingDB destination to be AccountingDB, source SalesDB then destination SalesDB so on etc....
I found that when I install MSDE, then I can create/edit database objects for MSDE database in Visual Studio 2003 Server Explorer, but when I try to create/edit database objects under the default database created by the SQL Server 2000 installation, I cannot do these tasks as no option for these tasks appear when I right-click on the database object in Server Explorer. Anyone knows why this is happening?
Being still a relative newcomer to SQL Server (people may say I'm trying to take on too much being somewhat inexperienced once they read about the problem I'm trying to tackle, but alas...) I'm running into the following problem: I need to create tables in my user database on the fly (using Stored Procedures) so that each table can be created many times in the database but only once for every user. The tables should be named something like "username.Table1", "username.Table2" etc. as opposed to "dbo.Table1". I then want to use the stored procedure from .NET/C# in my web application, so that i can create the complete set of usertables for each of my clients.
Now, I tackled the stored procedure part (that is, it creates all the tables I need with all the parameters I want) and am able to use it from my web application (which took some time to learn but proved quite easy to do), but I cannot seem to get it coupled to the current user (instead of the dbo). Every time I trie, the tables are created as dbo.Table1 and when I try to create a new set, it gives a warning ("table with name such and so already exists..."). I made sure to log in as an authenticated user (using forms authentication) before trying to create the tables but this gives the aforementioned result.
What am I doing wrong? I use Visual Web Developer Express, SQL Server 2005 Express and IIS version 5.1
Would it be available to connect from VB.net 2003 to SQL Server XE? VB.net 2003 works on .net framework1.1 while SQL XE works on .net framwork 2.0 so i think this couldn't be done!!
I have created a SQL Everywhere database using SQL Server Management Studio (because I couldn't figure out a way to create it with VisualStudio.NET).
Then, I try to open it in Visual Studio.NET, using the following steps:
Add New Data Source Pick type Database Click New Connection Pick Data Source "<other>", and Data Provider ".NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB". Pick OLE DB Provider "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition OLE DB Provider for Windows". Enter a full path to the filename as the Server or File Name. (I've tried it with and without doubling the backslashes in the pathname - no difference.) Click Advanced and enter the Password that I assigned to the DB. Click Test Connection - it says it succeeded. Click OK. It says "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done."
Please direct me to the right forum if this is not the right one.
Upon installation of SQL Server 2005, I opened the SQL Server Management Studio, connected using Windows Authentication and went to the security node in the tree. I created a log in called "TestLogin". I restarted my server just to make sure everything took and when I tried to log in using TestLogin via SQL Server Authentication, I get the below error. I have mixed mode enabled as well as named pipes. I am not sure what the issue is or what to try next. I even get the same error when trying to use "sa".
Thanks,

I am trying to link tables from an access 2003 frontend to sql server 2005 backend.
I am doing this in a vmware test environment. I am using vmware server and running sbs 2003 and xp sp2 client. Both virtaul machine can talk to each other(using local host connection).
I have tried to create a dsn to the sql server but i cannot connect. I can ping the sbs server through the command interface but the error i get when i try to connect is :
Connection failed: Sql state: hyt00 sqlserver error: 0 microsoft odbc sql server driver timeout expired.
spent a day trying various combinations - still no joy.
I need to create a new table on a SQL Server 2005 Database, but the data needed for the table is kept in different databases on different servers.
Half the data is on the SQL 2005 database, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem, but the other half is on a SQL Express database on a different server, is it possible to write a T-SQL query to retrieve this data on the other server?
Normally I use a create table + insert into kind of query to create custom tables but I don't know how to connect to the SQL Express server/database using T-SQL (if it's possible at all?) to do this.
Any tips, hints, ideas very welcome. Please use small words and short sentences.
Hi,How do i connect tables so they are interrelated to each other. like the asp.net 2.0 membership tables have the "id" and how can i use that? i have multiple tables that are all connected.like i have a table for profile. and images profile with include their profile, while images will include there avatar.now when i display there profile on page, i need to grab the data from both the profile table and avatar. right now i've been using the "JOIN" statement. but is tehre any other way
I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.
Can I dynamically (from a stored procedure) generatea create table script of all tables in a given database (with defaults etc)a create view script of all viewsa create function script of all functionsa create index script of all indexes.(The result will be 4 scripts)Arno de Jong,The Netherlands.
I have some code that dynamically creates a database (name is @FullName) andthen creates a table within that database. Is it possible to wrap thesethings into a transaction such that if any one of the following fails, thedatabase "creation" is rolledback. Otherwise, I would try deleting on errordetection, but it could get messy.IF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'CREATE DATABASE ' + @FullNameEXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorENDIF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @FullName + '.[dbo].[Image] ( [ID][int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL, [Blob] [image] NULL , [DateAdded] [datetime]NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]'EXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorENDIF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'ALTER TABLE ' + @FullName + '.[dbo].[Image] WITHNOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [PK_Image] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [ID] ) ON[PRIMARY]'EXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorEND
I'm new to using SSIS and have been reading and learning slowly how to use it. I'm trying to create an identical copy of our database for reporting. I've used the Import/Export wizard, but have had some issues with foreign keys and with sql_variant columns.
I've tried searching for anything but haven't had any luck as of yet. I guess I don't even know where to start or what to look for.
I have 4 tables connected with one particular Id. I will explain the table with sample data to make it more clear. table 1 Table 2 Id(PK) Firstname Lastname T2Id(PK) Id(FK) Pfirstname Plastname 65 a b 22 65 AA BB
Table 3 Table 4 T3Id(PK) Id(FK) Firstname Lastname T4Id(PK) Id(FK) T3Id(FK) Pfirstname Plastname 45 65 c d 33 65 45 CC DD 46 65 e f 44 65 46 EE FF I want the output to be Firstname Lastname Pfirstname PlastName a b AA BB c d CC DD e f EE FF I am able to join table3 and table 4 to get the last 2 rows of output but not able to get all three rows by inner join of 4 tables.
I've about read myself to death, and have yet to find the simple answer to the question of what is the best way to connect my MS Access 2003 front-end to an SQL 2000 back-end?
