How To Preserve Entire Database
Jul 12, 2005
Hi, I'm a noob who sucks at programming, and sucks even more when it comes to database.
I'm operating a small website with an SQL Server database that drives my shopping cart. I want to close this website down, but I don't want to lose all the data in the database in case I want to do something in the future.
How do you backup the entire database into a file so i might be able to import it at later times? Do I have to do this with SQL, T-SQL, or the manager?

i have a development database that has updates and changes to a production database. rather than go through individually and alter all relevant tables and stored procedures, id like to back up the database on the development side and restore it on the production side as the production database. is there a way to restore the database on the production server but preserve all the security settings (ie logins and such)? i noticed on our development server, that if i try to restore the database with my development database, it overwrites the users and/or if the user is the same on both, it removes the login name for that user.

What is the best way to create a blank copy of my database? I really want some of the tables to keep the data in them, these are some of the lookup table.

I have built a template database which I'm finally pleased with, however I want to periodically duplicate the design - not data into a new database. How can I duplicate a database? I was hoping to right mouse, copy, then right mouse, paste, and then be prompted for the new name but no such luck.

Is there any way to do a complete database search in SQL server? For instance, if I have a criteria "DBFORUMS", I would like to scan through all user tables in my database to get all records with the word "DBFORUMS" stored, just like want we are doing in "Quick Search" in dbforums site.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, this is my first post on these forums, so please excuse me if this topic has already been covered.
I'm currently working in a power station for student vacation work placement. I need to export data from a database that gets it's data from machinery and inputs out in the plant. The machines that provide this input put it into a database, and I need to find the relevant data to export.
My problem is that, in some cases, the sample data that i'm given may be under different field names, in a completely unrelated table. I was looking for a way to search the entire database (250+ tables) for a certain string, so I can find where it is in the database, and run queries on the table it originates from. For example:
My sample data shows me that I have an object with the ID Y03A3DEA_TH1. I know this ID will occur somewhere else in the database, but i'm just not sure where.
If anyone knows of any way that I can search the entire database for specific data, either using tools in MS SQL 2000, or 3rd party apps, i would greatly appreciate their help.
Thanks a lot,
Jack Smith

Hi,
Is it possible to copy a database from the existing database. I mean to say creating a duplicating database.
Note: I can do it by using "Generate SQL Server Script Wizard" or "Database Publishing Wizard" which saves a some filename.sql and later executing this will create another database by assigning some xyzdatabase name.
My main motive is copying a database in a single line script without using this lengthy sciprt.
Example
FirstDatabase (contains 10 tables 10 stored procedures)
SecondDatabase (also contains 10 tables 10 stored procedures)
If possible, can you write a script that attach a database from the C:MyTemporaryDatabase
Because this i need through programming Visual Basic using SQL Server. I want to create some temporary database.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks.
Best Regards
Kashif Chotu

I want to replace every single 1/1/1900 date I have in my system with null, on an entire database level. I never want them, they cause multiple issues, and I need them gone.
I have made a trigger on a test table that works for inserts, but not updates:
CREATE TRIGGER UpdateDate ON test FOR INSERT AS
IF EXISTS (select * FROM inserted WHERE CheckDate ='1/1/1900')
BEGIN
UPDATE test SET CheckDate=Null
FROM test T INNER JOIN inserted I ON T.AutoID=I.AutoID
WHERE I.CheckDate='1/1/1900'
END
Also, it only works on this table, and the specific field mentioned.
I am looking for a global, databse level trigger that will replace 1/1/1900 with null whenever it appears from an insert, or an update statement.

Hi,
I'm found this sample for BACKUP DATABASE statement in SQL Server 2000 Book
Online, but is seemed that only save file to server. How can I save backup
file to local computer? or there is other way as easy as this statement for
backup/restore database?
-- Create a logical backup device for the full MyNwind backup.
USE master
EXEC sp_addumpdevice 'disk', 'MyNwind_1',
DISK ='c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLBACKUPMyNwind_1.dat'
-- Back up the full MyNwind database.
BACKUP DATABASE MyNwind TO MyNwind_1

After found out the `transfer object` command in MS SQL EM didn`t work well
in my databases, I started code by myself to generate the `Create xxx` statements to copy objects across databases (structure only) using SQL.
I`ve coded out most of them, logins, defaults, UDT, tables, stored procedures,
but then I started to have problems with primary keys and foreign key const.
Has anyone tried to do the same thing before or is there some SQL scripts created to handle this already? Please advise me.
I am thinking to use SQL-DMO with VBscript now. But I still prefer a good
SQL script (old thought, the DB-Lib based `isql` is more reliable than the
SQL-OLE).
Thanks for any suggestion.
- Ken

I am attempting to only query the lowest year, and month from my entire production database. I am using the following query and when I do it individually it will bring back the lowest year but also with additional years. How can I remove those other years so I can only query the lowest year and month from the entire database?
Code:
select distinct RRCID, MIN(YEAR)as YEAR, MONTH
from Gas_Prodv1
where RRCID = 1221376
group by RRCID, MONTH
order by YEAR, MONTH
Results:

This problem may appear trivial to you guys but is troubling me since quite some time now! The problem is that I created a website using express studio happily and it worked flawlessly on the local host. Now I want to move it to a remote server and my host created a database name ASPNETDB for me on the server. The problem is that that ASPNETDB database is virtually empty and I want to copy all my tables,stored procedures etc etc(complete database) to the remote ASPNETDB database. How can I do that? In the management studio express edition there is no command available to copy paste all contents of the database to another database. Please help I am quite confused!

I need to create some kind of log file or table that will record whenever an insert, update or delete is made to any table in a database. I have seen triggers that do this kind of thing on a table level. Can this be done with a trigger or a stored procedure on a database level? If so some kind of example or syntax would be great.
TIA.

I'm trying to create a query that searches an entire database for keywords inside of the columns for each table within the database. For instance my tables have 2 columns one named ID and the other Permission, I'd like it be able to return all the lines that are associated with that keyword. So if I search "Schedule" it returns all the lines containing that word in it within that database.

I have read the previous threads on the bugs with this task mainly: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1438968&SiteID=1 . These are great posts that helpmed me avoid wasting time. I haven't seen one yet that addresses copying an entire database including the sql server logins.
I would like to import the ENTIRE database from one (2005) server to another(2005) using the SSIS Transfer SQL Object task (not just sprocs,tables,views and functions). I have figured out how to pull the tables,views,sprocs and functions ... by using an execute sql task to drop these objects. But I cannot get this to work for users since the user dbo cannot be dropped and guest can only be disabled. I am creating a new database (this is the database where the sql objects will be copied to) via management studio to test this. There has to ba a way to get this working ... Microsoft must have published some sort of KB article on this task or a Script Task using SMO object calls. If need be I can drop the entire database on the target machine and have SSIS recreate it.
The only reason I'm willing to take a risk with SSIS rather than backup and restore is because of time constraints (I assume the SSIS task is faster) and backup storage administration.

Hey there - I have a textbox (C# 1.1 OR 2.0) that I want to take it's contents and post to a datatype of some sort in SQL2k5 and have it preserve the breaks (return keystrokes) so when the data is presented, it can hold a paragraph form. Is this possible?something like this: <asp:TextBox id="txtContent" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="10"></asp:TextBox>Right now, I'm using nvarchar(4000) as the datatype but if I were to type, say 3 paragraphs, the data returned in the datagrid I bind that data to shows only one long string of data. For the time being, I have been puttting HTML formatting tags in the content I'm posting to the DB, but ultimately don't want to have to do that. I don't want to have to use a Text Editor (like FTB or FCKeditor) if necessary because they seem very much involved for the simple need I have which is to preserve paragraph formatting.So, is there another datatype in SQL2k5 that I should be using? Or are there simple code snippets I can utilize that will recognize a carriage return as a </p><p> tag?I'm trying to migrate to 2.0 as much as possible, so any C# code would be greatly appreciated in 2.0!Thanks for your help!iSheahan

Not exactly a TSQL question. Query Editor in Management Studio keeps reformatting my sql code every time I hit save, making the code much harder to read. Is there a way to preserve line breaks and indentation in the SQL when creating a view? Thanks.

How do I move data from one server and append to the same table structure on a second server and preserve the foreign key relationships. In other words TableB.TableA_ID references TableA.ID. The IDENTITY ID numbers themselves will change but they must continue to match up on the destination server the way they did on the source server.
I can do this using procedural programming but that is usually not the way to go.
(btw, this is a cleaned up version of a question I tacked on to another thread)

Hello,
I am looking to preserve the ROWGUID column that is created automatically when a table is added to a publication as I have noticed that the column is removed and readded (with new values) each time the publication is deleted and recreated. We are planning on using the values in the rowguid column for a non-replication purpose, and don't wish the column to be removed or the values to be reset in the event the 'owning' publication is dropped for whatever reason. I've done some research and have identified the preserve_rowguidcol column of the sysmergearticles table as a candidate for achieving the desired goal. Before moving forward, I wanted to ask for input regarding this. Are there any best practices I've overlooked on this topic? Neither Google nor this forum's search results yield any real discussion on this topic.
Thanks!

I have following XQuery:
declare @xmldoc as xml
select @xmldoc = '<Text>This is firstline<Break />This is second line<Break />This is third line</Text>'
select @xmldoc.value('(/Text)[1]','varchar(max)')Result is: "This is firstlineThis is second lineThis is third line"
My problem is, that the <Break /> tags within the text are removed in the conversion to varchar. How to preserve the such tags in the varchar output? Or to get the <Break /> tags "translated" to e.g. CHAR(10)?

I spent huge amount of time figuring out how to preserve lading and trailing white spaces on report display without success. Can anyone help me here?
My problem is I have data with leading and or trailing white spaces and I need to show it as is. In designer preview it shows correct values. As soon as report is published and accessed on web, it truncates the whitespaces . I had a look at source, it shows values are correctly fetched(with spaces) but are ignored while rendering. I also tried replacing blank space with , however it reads this as &nbsp;.
I am using asp.net 2.0 and SQL serer 2005 reporting services.
