Is there a way to transfer data from a SqlServer db to a SqlServer Express db. I tried to use the backup file of SqlServer, but this file is not valid for SqlServer Express. Or there any alternatives?
thanks,
Henk
I am trying to 'load' a copy of a SQLServer 2000 database to SQLServer 2005 Express (on another host). The copy was provided by someone else - it came to me as a MDF file only, no LDF file.
I have tried to Attach the database and it fails with a failure to load the LDF. Is there any way to bypass this issue without the LDF or do I have to have that?
The provider of the database says I can create a new database and just point to the MDF as the data source but I can't seem to find a way to do that? I am using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Thanks!!
Hi experts;
I have a problem with unicode character 0x2300
I created this table
create table testunicode (Bez nchar(128))
Insert Data
insert into testunicode (Bez)values('Œ€„¢')
with 2 Unicode characters
Œ€ = 0x2300
„¢ = 0x2122
Selecting the data
select Bez from testunicode
I see
"?„¢"
„¢ = 0x2122 is ok but instead of 0x2300 there is 0x3f
When I modify the insert statement like that ( 8960 = 0x2300 )
insert into testunicode (Bez)values(NCHAR(8960)+'„¢')
and select again voila i see
"Œ€„¢"
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks
Hello,

What I am actually asking is if I can create automatically a new SQLServer 2005 Database with the same structure as my existin SQLSErver Mobile database
Thanks in advance,

I'm a newbie.
I have googled many web sites,but i can't find the help that how to upload or store files(include images) into a database with Asp.Net 2.0.
Although i have found few samples about storing images into database,but the sample applied with Asp.Net 1.0 or 1.1 technology...

Who can help me ?Give me a refer sample about upload files to database with Asp.Net 2.0. Is it need to use stream or what other method?
By the way, i want make a document managment system with vwd and sql express.

I have an app that uses a sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to connect to a sqlserver 2000.
Is it possible to do a direct replacement of sqlserver 2000 with sqlserver 2005 express just by reconfiguring the app to point to the express? The app would still be using the sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to try and make the connection.
If that is a possibility, what can be some differences in the configuration? Previously with 2000 the config information I entered is:
server name: "machinename"( or ip). I've also tried "machiname/SQLEXPRESS"
DB name: name of db instance
port: 1433(default)
user and pass.
My attempts so far results in
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing socket."
and
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Unable to connect. Invalid URL."
I would like to remove data from a sqlserver database but keep the structure the the db. How would I do this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, I am attempting to create SSIS packages to extract data from our AS/400 DB2 databases and populate tables for analysis and reporting in SQLServer. We have recently installed a new 2005 SQL Server to replace our existing 2000 databases. I have several DTS packages setup to connect to the 400s and copy the needed data to SQL2000 and these work great but do not transition to SSIS very well. I can get my SSIS packages to work if I create a seperate data flow task for each table but that does not seem appropriate for a tool like SSIS. I would think that what I am attempting is a very common thing to do. Maybe other enumerators could be used but I have not been able to get it to work.
I am trying to use a foreach loop, currently with a forech item enumerator, to first truncate the table on the SQL Server database using an Execute SQL task, and the to use a Data Flow task to refresh the data using an ole db source and destination. I have the truncate portion working, but when I try to setup the Ole db source using a variable it tells me I have no input columns. I have a variable from the forech loop that loops through the table names, this variable is used in a second variable which is set to EvaluateAsExpression with the expression set to the follwoing: "select * from " + @table_name
I have set delayvalidation to true and validateexternalmetadata to false. What do I do in order to get around this issue? Also, how should the old db destination be set so that it load the data into the table specified in the variable?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

I would like to import data to a sqlserver express database. The database I am interested in importing was created in MSDE. I tried backing it up and using the restore function in sqlserver express but with no success. I have not been able to find an import function in the Management Studio Express interface. Is it possible to import this information, or should I get busy with my data entry?

I am currently Using SQL Server Express for testing purposes while waiting for SQL 2008 to be issued. (Our project will take some 2-3 years to complete so concerns about using a 'new' version of SQL Server are not pertinent). We have ordered this week Visual Studio 2008 as the shrink wrap version is due out the end of this week.
I have been able to migrate all our data from the old database (Superbase) but only field names and field types.
Indexes and validation stuff is lost.
The problem I have is that:
I can only import to an empty database, therefore if I start to create Indexes and otherwise modify the structure of this database in SQL Server then I will lose all this work on the next occasion I need to import (as Superbase will still continue to be our firm's current daily data handling tool for another year or two)
My thoughts where to create a copy of the original import, develop the constraints, indexes etc. on this secondary copy. then (on the day we are ready to migrate) empty the copy of data and import the data only
Does SQL Server Express have the tools to do this?
If not then are my best options to use SQL Server Beta until the new software is realeased (but notice that Visual Studio 2008 does not like SQL2008 - is there a fix for this?)
I hope this is the right forum for these questions
Thanks in advance

Hi All,
I want to connect to SQLExpress database on the network. I can do so using code but I want to use the Data Source Configuration Wizard. It seems this only works for local instances of SQL server. Is this true?
I can connect just fine to the database on the network using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express...for what this is worth.
I have tried to map a drive to the SQL server machine and pick the mdf file but I get the error msg of network path is not supported for database files....I have turned on allow remote connections, allow tcp/ip, named pipes, added sqlserv.exe and sqlbrowser.exe to my firewall exceptions ect..
I want to be able to use Table Adapters, SqlDataAdapters ect. After reading numerous forum questions/ kb articles this seems to be a common problem. I am on the verge of just saying forget it and use MS Access instead.
Thanks in advance!

DECLARE @s varchar(50)
SELECT @s = @@servername + 'ASPNET'
EXECUTE sp_grantlogin @s
EXECUTE sp_grantdbaccess @s, 'webuser'

When I run this task, I find the following error:

Hi,
I have a hard time copying my db (or instance?) from a SQL Server 2000 db which resides at my web host. I have Sql Server 2005 Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express on my computer and, well, there is no "ftp-like" option so I don't have a clue about how to proceed. I've read many posts on the net on this matter but nothing seems to apply to this, in my mind, rather common, configuration.
I have receieved Excel docs that should be appended to tables in my db. I have successfully installed DTS (see http://mobiledeveloper.wordpress.com/ for details - it's really simple but takes two hours) so I have a wizard for the actual import from Excel. My plan is now to
1. download/detach/whatever my table/db/part of the web host's db and download it to my computer. Then
2. fill the tables with the data from Excel. And finally, to
3. upload/attach/whatever my local db or table to the web host again.
I'm sooo confused, please, please help me out here!
