Given that you have an interface with a connection to SQL Server Express, is there some T-SQL script or statement that can enumerate the available database names on the server ?
I need to get access to stored packages. To do so I use Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application class. There are methods: Application.FolderExistsOnDtsServer, Application.FolderExistsOnSqlServer but I need to enumerate existed folders. Are there something like: Application.GetFolders(String ParentFolderName) ? I have searched in doc but there is not any useful except:
"To verify that the folder was created, the following Transact-SQL query selects all packages stored in the File System folder of the Stored Packages package store.
select * from sysdtspackages90 "
It is not suitable for me because I don't have permissions to access database
I hope anyone here can help me with this tough problem:
I have a replication enviroment with several subscribers. Publisher:MSSQL 2000, SP3 Subscribers: MSSQL200, SP3 and MSDE2000, SP3
Since a few weeks, one of the subscribers fails when synchronizing with the message "This process could not enumerate changes at the subscriber"
The erroroutput with verboselevel 3 doesn't help me much, I append it to the end of this posting. (unfortunately german)
I heard that this error can be caused by a "blank" in an image column or different Service Pack Versions - definitely not possible in this case! The only strange detail is that the SQL Server Versionnumber of this MSDE shown via EM is not the same as the number shown in controlpanel->software. By the way, is it ok that here are two lines for the MSDE? SP3 is definitely installed on all machines!
Any help would be greatly appreciated - i'm already losing hope... Best Regards, Gert

I have a problem with merge replication on SQL 2000.
-Publisher is Standard edition, subsriber MSDE
-Both SP4
-It always fails at same table.
- CHECKDB shows no errors
- It worked OK for a quite long period...
-Replication fails with this mesage ('verbose ouput'):

Some tables in article are merged succesfully so I don't believe it's a network error.
Anyway I will try to recreate the subscription, but there is a problem that subcriber has more data than publisher, so i have to manualy trasfer (DTS) the data to publisher before the new snapshot is applied. If this also fails i guess i can assume there is a connectivity problem.
I have two SQL 2005 Standard servers using merge replication, and out of the blue started getting failure notices regarding "The merge process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'." I turned on verbose logging and noticed the following section:
2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 Category:NULL Source: Merge Replication Provider Number: -2147200999 Message: The merge process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write. 2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 The Merge Agent was unable to update information about the last synchronization at the Subscriber. Ensure that the subscription exists at the Subscriber, and restart the Merge Agent. 2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 The merge process was unable to update last synchronization information at the Publisher.
Using Profiler on both sides, I don't see anything out the ordinary during the replication process until there are two calls in a row to the stored procedure sp_MSadd_merge_history90, where the second one is storing the error message listed above.
I've seen quite a few posts about this error message but so far no answers. I'm merge replicating between SQL Server 2005 SP2 and SQL Server 2005 Mobile. Everything seems to run really well until at some point I get the above error message while running the replication from the device. It seems to happen just after I've made a schema change on the server e.g. the latest one was adding some new columns (which allow nulls) to replicated tables.
I've switched on verbose logging and I get the following:

The error message doesn't seem very helpful. Is there another way to find out what is causing the problem? I've tried reinitializing all subscriptions and generating a new snapshot but it makes no difference. The only way I've found to fix this is to delete the database on the subscriber and synchronise again (losing all subscriber data since the last sync).
Hello, I'm trying to list the default and named instances on our domain. When I run SqlBrowseConnect all I get back is a list of our servers, for example: COMP01 COMP50
I'd like to get all the named instances as well, a list with: COMP01 COMP01DD COMP50
When I run "osql -L" I get the full list, but not with SqlBrowseConnect. I have tried to set SQL_COPT_SS_BROWSE_SERVER to (SQLPOINTER)NULL which, according to the docs, "[...] returns information for all servers in the domain." I have also set the SQL_COPT_SS_BROWSE_CONNECT to SQL_MORE_INFO_YES without any luck.
How can I list all of the Subscriptions in a CE Database that was created with the .Net System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication.AddSubscription method?
After I create the CE database in an sdf file, I can connect to it with SQL Servr Mgmt Studio, then see the list of Subscriptions in the Object TreeView, under "Replication"
But I can't find that Subscription list in any properties or methods of System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication or System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeConnection
Should I be looking in RMO features like Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication??
We want to confirm that a local CE database was last synced from the expected SQL Server database by checking the Publisher property of each subscription in the CE database.
When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions: 1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server? 2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server? 3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?
Dear Readers,Is it possible, like in Access, to link to tables in other SQL databases that are on the same server? I have a query that I originally had in Access that queered from multiply databases. It did this by having those other tables in the other databases linked to the database that had the query.
While I was out of the office the Lan Team moved one of my SQL Server2000 servers to a new network domain. Since then the maintenance jobhas not ran.The error log for the SQL Agents has the message listed in the subjectline. I have not found any useful articles on the MS SQL Serversite. Anyone know what might be wrong and how to fix it.HTH -- Mark D Powell --
Which tool can I use for structure editing of SQL Server Compact 3.5 databases? I'm installed SQL Server Compact 3.5. I have SQL Server Management Studio Express which was installed with SQL Server 2005 Express. Unfortunately this SSMS can create and open only 3.1 databases.
This question is about SQL Server 2005: I have been trying to figure out how to copy tables and stored procedures between 2 databases (on the same server) using SQL Server Management Studio. I have tried right clicking on the table name, "script table as", "drop to", "clipboard", then I click on the 2nd database, and then click on the "tables" . I change the name of the database and click "execute". This creates the table but does not copy the data. I have also tried "create to" "clipboard" and "insert to" "clipboard" and cannot seem to be able to figure out how to get the results that I want. I am new at this but need to get the tables with the data copied along with the stored procedures, even if I have to do them one at a time. When I was using SQL Server 2000, I was able to use DTS to copy objects to other databases easily. Can someone please tell me a way to accomplish what I need to do? I have gotten information here before that was very useful and was hoping that someone can help me again.Thank you so much. Carol Quinn
have a Prod Server A having TDE enabled on 2 of those databases. I have a Prod Server B having TDE enabled on 3 of those databases. Now I have to create a single Dev server Server C for all the above 5 databases residing on the two servers. So how can I restore all the 5 database backup files on server C.
Does it mean that I need to copy the certificates and Keys from both the Prod server to this Dev Box and then restore the backup files. Once done, I can enable the encryption ON on those 5 database on Dev box or is there any different approach.Also how will tempdb behave in this scenario.
I have another question : 1) Restoring SQL Server Databases after uninstalling and reinstalling SQL Server.
Two days ago there was some problem with Norton Antivirus, so Windows 98 restored itself to a previous state. The SQL Server name was not available when I tried to start again, so I had to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server. I started a new Database just a week before this happened (the change from Access to SQL Server as I stated in the other thread http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=987880) and after reinstallation I could not access the Database any more - even while it is in the Data directory. I did not have any backup to restore from - I just started creating tables, so there was only the Log file created and the MDF database file. I tried to import it for a while to the new server, but as the database is not shown in the new server, it was unable to import like I hoped. So how do you restore it back to SQL Server when you have no backup and only the (undamaged) MDF database file if you only have one server? I had to recreate the Database from scratch again - I don't want it to happen again.
I don't have any idea about upgrading databases.I am been given this task. It would be great if you let me know what are all the things to be considered upgrading the sql server 2000 databases to sql server 2005.
We have a server hosting about 150/200 webpages. The webpages content are provided by Access databases. Now we are planning to change to other platform, but we are not sure about the most suitable solution to our business in cost/performance terms.
We work in .NET platform, so in a first sight the most suitable database to work is SQL Server. The licenses for this platform costs nearly 6000 $ per CPU (our server is built with 4), so it's necessary to evaluate if really other cheaper or even free databases (as Firebird, MySQL, Oracle -don't know how cost this platform-) could be suitable for our server.
Which advantages have SQL Server 2005 over the rest of databases?. You think the budget necessary for Microsoft's database could be profitable at long range?
Hi I have been a bit of an idiot. I was using MSDE. I de-installed it and installed SQL Server Developer Ed 2000. I then copied my MSDE databases to the SQL Server data folder, but the SQL SErver cannot see them. Can anybody tell me how to sort this out please.
Does anyone know of any performance considerations when dealing with data that resides in two databases on the same server?
We use one database as a staging area for bulk loaded data. Once we are happy with the data we insert or update the equivalent tables in the "real" database but performance is terrible when the tables are joined across the databases. The execution plan indicates that the clustered key is used on the real database and a covering index on the staging database.
Are there any rules of thumb or gotchas that I should remind myself of when joining between databases?
TIA

Hi,We are about to move to SQL Server 2000, as we already have a licencedcopy of it. However, as i understand it you licence by the number ofusers (where else can i find out what the options are with it). The bigquestion is: We want it to run two seperate databases, we dont want theadmin of one to be able to have admin of the other, or be able to usethe other database. Is this possible, if so where might I be able tofind out more about it.Thanks in advance for any helpDavid
I have 2 web applications running on 2 W2K servers. Each server has a local SQL server(2000). We are about to upgrade the servers to Windows 2003. The web applications are running classic ASP and VB COM+ objects. We are going to take the opportunity to seperate SQL from the web server. What will end up with is 2 web servers running the applications and a single database server with 2 databases servering up the data. We will upgrade the SQL2K to SQL2K5.
My question is how will the SQL performance be affected? What's the best place to locate the COM+ objects? What kind of pitfalls do I need to be aware of?
Hi everyone, First of all I'd like to say I'm new to the forums, and in fact new to ASP.net. I've had a couple of applications running in VB.net for the last year or so that I now am looking to move on and into ASP.net (main reason is to do with implementation to remote sites in foreign countries). I'm currently following through the "Working with data and ASP.net 2.0" walkthrough on this site, which I must say has been a great help. I'll start with the background stuff first I have my main database on an SQL server. I also have 2 other databases on there - Customer and Employee. The reason for these are that they are shared amongst my VB applications and I kept them as seperate databases so that one database is all that needs to be administered and maintained, and these changes are then seen on both apps (takes away redundant data as well). In my main database, main table, is a field called CustomerID. This value relates to the CustomerID in the Customer table. In my VB app all I do is have the user select a customer name, and then the customer ID value is copied to the CustomerID field of my main table when inserting / updating a row. This is simply accomplished with 2 SQL connections and 2 dataAdapters. I also use 2 dataSets - one for Customer, one for WorkRequests (the main database)... I use ComponentOne stuff so that my grid will show the CustomerName instead of the CustomerID etc, and the same applies when I use my Employee database - I run many dataAdapters to this for things such as Account Manager, Technologist, Creator, UpdatedBy etc etc. Now, I'm new to VS 2005 - my apps were created in VS 2003 and .net 1.1. Can I easily re-create my apps in ASP.net? My primary goal at the moment is to make sure I can load a row, and display the "lookup" values instead of the "integer" value. As my tables are in seperate databases, I would like to know the best way of accomplishing this, if it is of course possible. Help and advice much appriciated. Kind Regards, Luke
Hi. I would like to enumerate all the databases in a given Sql Server instance. I've searched and found no information. Would somebody post a piece of VB code to do that? Thanks in advance Rafael
Hi, I have several databases on one MSQL Server which I want to transfer to new server. So, basically it is tranferring all contents of sql server databases on one server to another one. I know I can use import Wizard, but it will take long time, is there a more better way to do this.
Hi, I have a problem that I have never considered before. I am developing with C#.Net, Visual Studio.Net ans SQL Server on Windows Server 2003. Recently we have been upgrading our servers and have installed 2 servers (Live and Dev). The live server is Win Server 2003 Standard while the Dev server is 2003 enterprise. Both servers are running their own versions of SQL Servers (both 2002). What I need to know, is there a way to copy or 'sync' the dev database to the live without over-writing the live data. I need to be able to copy the dev db structure (the tables anf fields) but not over-write the live data with the dev data (the live data changes rapidly and none can be lost). These 'syncs' would happen 2-3 times a month so the 2 db's, at the time of sync, will look very different so a simple copy of the live data to the dev db is not possible. Does SQL Server have a wizard or utility? I have not been able to find one. Thanks, Justin
Is it possible to merge/sync 2 "part time connected" Sql Server databases? I basically want to keep one of my in office databases synced with a database on my hosting provider. (Said hosting provider does not offer SQL Server's built in Merge Replication) Can anyone recommend a 3rd party application that does this if one exists?
