I am designing a new table with a few columns that may or may not havea value on each row that is inserted.What issues determine whether to allow a NULL value to be inserted forthat column or define a default value to be used?I want to think through the repercussions of this decision before I getinto production.
I am getting the following error when I use the Membeship Controls w/ Roles enabled.
Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
I use ROOT>USER>WEBSITE for FTP Directory Setup.
If i need to change my old ways please inform me on the best direction.
I have a report which will one day display some data from an analysis services cube. my first step is to create a drop down parameter enabling the user to choose the date. I'd like to display only dates that have data, and I'd like it to default to today.
So I've created a dataset that will be the datasource for the dropdown displaying the available non-empty dates, which works fine.
SELECT measures.turnover ON COLUMNS,
nonempty([TBL DIM DATE].[DATE_ONLY].[DATE_ONLY].ALLMEMBERS ) ON ROWS
FROM [Itdev1 Hk]
I've also set the report parameter up to be a queried paramter,and to use the above dataset as it source, with [DATE_ONLY] displayed. and [DATE_ONLY] as the value.
Now, how do I get it to default to the last valid member in the list?
Can someone please explain how i would define a multi-valued default parameter within the report Properties -> Parameters. I have an OLAP based report with multi-value parameters. I do not want to set the default values from within BIDS. Instead, I'd like to do this from the ReportServer (after report deployment). I have no problem when i enter a single value as a 'default value', for example: ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[AAM] But, how would i define it with multiple values as a 'default value' ?, for example: ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[ABC] , [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[DEF] NOTE: It appears that you cannot use expressions, such as the 'split' function in the 'default value' space. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Hi, I want to modify the layout and stuff of the main reporting page...but I'm not sure how to open it ... is there a project for it that gets installed on the server?
I've seen some video demos on the microsoft site and they had some pretty nice front ends set up. I'd like to put some actual metrics on that front page and set up some links and different layouts.
Can someone please at least point me in the right direction to do this? I'm hoping it doesn't require setting up an entirely new site from scratch.

I need to create a new field on a table and have that field default to another field value in that same table. Is there a way to do this w/ a default constraint rather than adding a trigger to the table? If i can't use a default constraint does anyone have a template trigger i could use? Below is an example of what i'm trying to do (Field_C is the new field and i want it to use Field_A value if no other value is specified on insert). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
alter table FOO add Field_C varchar(50) not null constraint FOO_default DEFAULT Field_A

I have got code for single string... but i want to encrypt/decrypt columns and sometimes the whole database... Can anybody help me out... If you have Store procedure in SQL for the same then also it ll do... Thanks in advance
When you utilize transactions in ADO.NET are the locks put on the entire TABLE used or at the row level? For instance if you do a SELECT within a transaction if you only pull 5 rows out of a 1000 row table can you just make it lock the rows that have been pulled? It seems like it locks the entire table?
Hi, Can anybody please explain me, what is low level and high level locking in SQL Server 2005 database. Also what is the name of process which converts low level locking into high level locking and vise versa. -Sanjeev
Hi..I'd very much appreciate it if someone would tell me how to translatea statement level trigger written in Oracle to its equivalent (if there isone)in MS SQL Server. Ditto for a row level trigger.If this is an old topic, I apologize. I'm very much a newbie to SQL Server.Regards,Allan M. Hart
I have to use a CTE based on conditions. But I am not able to write a common CTE and access it on different conditions. Now I am duplicating the CTE definition inside each if condition. But I expects a solution like bellow to reduce code duplication.
For example
---- I need a common definition of CTE like this. with CustomGroup( id) as ( Select id from Groups g Inner join GroupStatus s on s.Id = g.Id Where s.Status = €˜Active€™ )
IF @DisplyStatus=€?UserDetail€? begin <!--[if !supportLists]-->- <!--[endif]-->at present CTE is defined here. select u.* from users u inner join userGroups ug on ug.UserId = u.Id inner join CustomGroup cg on cg.Id =ug.GroupId -- Accessing the CTE end else if @DisplyStatus=€?UserSimple€? begin <!--[if !supportLists]-->- <!--[endif]-->at present CTE is defined here. select u.FirstName,u.LastName,u.DOB from users u inner join userGroups ug on ug.UserId = u.Id inner join CustomGroup cg on cg.Id =ug.GroupId -- Accessing the CTE end else if @DisplyStatus=€?UserWithAddress€? begin
end
Please suggest possibilities, and your suggestions.
Hi, here am i back ..not sure it's possible to solve it in one query ...there are four tables:1) headquarters---------------hqID (primary key)hqname2) department---------------depID (primary key)depnamehqID3) reports----------repID (p. key)depIDuserID4) users--------userID (p.key)usernameI want to get in one query those four fields:hqID, hqname, depID, depname + varchar(number of distinct users that has made a report foreach department) . This last field is a concatenation.The complexity resides in the fact there is need for a COUNT among other fields ...E.g.: table reports may look like this: repID depID userID 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 1 3 4 3 6 5 4 8This gives:for dep 1: 2 distinct usersfor dep 2: 0for dep 3: 1 distinct userfor dep 4: 1 distinct userThanks for helpTartuffe

I've always created database tables with one Primary Key that increments by one for each new record. I'm working on a database that was built by someone else now that has a lot of defined foreign key relationships (under Tables > specific table > Keys). How helpful is it to define these Keys? I assume it helps make the database more efficient but is it necessary if you're working with small databases?
Why is it not possible to define more than one relationship per table?
i have a primary table that i would like to cascade deletes to 2 other foreign tables in 2 separate relationships. why can't i do this and what are my alternatives?
Hi, I am trying to connect to my local SQL Server through a webform ( on VS.NET ). My web.config shows something like this - sqlConnectionString="data source=IP address;Trusted_Connection=yes"and the tutorial I am following says something this - SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection( "server=(local)\NetSDK;database=pubs;Integrated Security=SSPI");If I just replace the NetSDK either with my IP address or the servername (my machine name), I get a SQLException that server doesn't exist or access denied. I have specified "windows authentication". How do I correctly define my connection string ? Please guide me.Thanks,sbs.
