I Asked This In Sql Express But Hoping To Get A Different Answer Here.

Apr 24, 2007



Here is my goal please let me know if it is possible.

I have installed sql express on clients machines. I don't want them to be able to view the sp's or the functions. I would like to go as far as not allowing them to see the tables. I tried with encrption but this is still breakable by the user using the DAC.



Does CE

Support transactionscope?

What would I use to create tables and sp's for my sdf database? Server Managment Studio or something else?



Thanks

Question Never Asked About SQL ExPress.

Nov 10, 2005

Hello,

I understand that SQL Express is a free tool and its placed between Access and SQL 2000 / 2005.
I also understand that it supports Database upto 4 GB, which is quiet sufficient for any small or medium sized
company.

My question is a bit confusing... let me explain. We get Access database free by the hosting comany. We just have to
pay extra if we need SQL 2000 or SQL 2005 support, depending on size.

Will we get SQL Express Free support as its a lready free for all. In Access case, we just have to upload .mdb file along
with rest of our code, what is the procedure for uploading SQL EXPRESS data. I believe since its a light weight
tool,all the procedures must be same like Access.

Pl. guide with more details.

Will This Do What I Am Hoping It Will?

Jun 12, 2008

Will this work???

Update [table1]
Set [table1].[field1] = [table2].[field3]
Where [table1].[field1] = [table2].[field2]

I have a temp table [table2] with the corrected value [field3] in it
I need to update every row in [table1] where [field1] matches the incorrect [field2] in [table2]

If not, please point me in the right direction

Thanks,

Nested Select Statements Not Working The Way I Was Hoping...

Apr 18, 2008

So I have another query I can't seem to function the way I was hoping. I've learned a lot in this past month or so but I've hit another challenge. Anyways what I'm trying to do is when a user/student wants to add a new major I want to show a list of majors that are NOT already in his/her profile. So basically if I had a full list of majors:
Accounting
Computer Science
Mathematics

and the user already had Mathematics in his/her profile I'd like it to display only:

Accounting
Mathematics

Below is the layout of the tables, my attempt at the query, and then below that some example data.

Asked A While Back - Think I'll Try Again!

Jul 20, 2005

This pertains to SQL Server 2000Do others have the problems that we have in our company, where we havea field from a table, and need to know all the SQL Server processesthat may change that value? I'm still hoping somebody can tell me of atool, or set of queries or something that will document the fields inthe tables and the processes that affect them, along with the valuesthat it sets. For example:TableA.FieldA:sp_InsertNewRec: sets field to Null when new record createdsp_ChangeStatus: sets field to the value of the parameter passed intr_LogChanges: sets field to be the current datetimeMaybe we're just too sloppy at my company, but it seems to be fairlyobvious need to have some sort of automated process that can providethat documentation. With thousands of fields, hundreds of storedprocedures, triggers, DTS's etc..., documenting this information is aVERY daunting task. Any help at all would be appreciated.Gary

A Probably Over And Over Again Asked Question Of Syntax - Help Please

Oct 15, 2007

Dear GroupI'd be grateful if you can provide me with a hint for the following:Fields Table ContactContactIDFirstnameLastnameFields Table ContactMethodContactMethodIDContactMethodTxtContactMethodTypeIDLinked by Tables:Fields Table LkTbl_Contact_ContactMethodLkTblIDContactIDContactMethodTypeIDFields Table ContactMethodTypeContactMethodTypeIDContactMethodThe purpose of this construct is that I keep all contactmethods suchas Email, Mobile, Home Work, Web in table ContactMethods. Whether it'se.g. an Email or Mobile is identified through the ContactMethodType.That enables me that a Contact can have 3 Mobile Numbers, 2 Emailaddresses.For the sake of simplicity, lets say I want to return the Contact Nameand Home, Work and Mobile numbers. Not all of them but the firstmatching record of each from the ContactMethod table.I must note that the contents of table ContactMethodType for columnContactmethod looks like this:EmailMobileHomeWorkWebI do:Select Firstname, Lastname, Home, Work, Mobile FROM ContactJOIN LkTbl_Contact_ContactMethod ON(LkTbl_Contact_ContactMethod.ContactID = Contact.ContactID)JOIN ContactMethod ON (ContactMethod.ContactMethodID =LkTbl_Contact_ContactMethodID)JOIN ContactMethodType ON (ContactMethodType.ContactMethodTypeID =ContactMethod.ContactMethodTypeID)The question is, how do I map the result from table ContactmethodTypeto my fields Home, Work and Mobile in the resultset? The Type isidentified in ContactMethodType but I can't figure out how to do thisbest.Your help and suggestions or any other better solution is veryappreciated.Thanks in advance for your help and efforts,Martin

I Have SQL Authentication But Can Connect To SQL DBs Without Being Asked To Log In. I Need To Change This.

Mar 13, 2008




Hello, I have several SQL 2000 logins on our servers. I removed the builtin/ groups and only have SQL authentication users, although the server is operating in "Mixed Mode". How can I secure this? I don't understand how we can just connect to any DB without ever being asked to log in. Let me know if you can help. Thanks.

I am new to the forum and would like to have a question answered. I want to to install Sql Server Express with advanced services but also want to have IIS installed as well.

Urgent: A Simple Question About The Most Asked Topic - DATE

May 7, 2004

Hi,

The subject say it all :)

I have a field which stores date which the datetime datatype... The problem is that I am also getting time information in this stored field.

I just want to extract the date part in dd-Mmm-yy format (e.g. 07-May-04). I tried convert (char (8), MyDateField, 112) but it gives me date in yyyymmdd format. How do I get the results in dd-Mmm-yy format instead?

Thanks.

How Do You Handle This Control Flow Issue, Asked Mr. Newbie

May 29, 2007

Greetings,

I have a question about the best method to ensure the proper flow of control within a package. I have three related SQL tasks €“ A, B, and C €“ that must execute in sequence. If any one of the tasks fails then the remaining tasks should not execute because each is dependent on the previous step. (A €œsuccess€? precendence constraint.)

Likewise, I have a second set of SQL tasks €“ 1, 2, and 3 €“ that must execute in sequence. Task 3 should never execute unless tasks 1 and 2 have been successful.

I consider these to be two independent logic paths in the same package and, indeed, when I run the package both task A and task 1 begin running at the same time.

What I€™m not sure of is how to add a new task €“ Z €“ that will execute only after both the A-B-C and 1-2-3 task paths have completed. Diagramatically, this would be like having a €œcompletion€? constraint linking task C to task Z and another €œcompletion €œ constraint linking task 3 to task Z. In other words, the two independent paths merge at task Z. Task Z is an audit step that must always run €“ it emails summaries of the database activities performed by the other tasks.

What has me puzzled is how I get to Z when there is a failure in either the A-B-C path or the 1-2-3 path. As things stand now, the package will never reach task Z if there is a failure in an earlier task because they are joined by a €œsuccess€? constraint.

I thought I could get around this by using a €œsequence container€? but I discovered when I added A, B, and C to a container that I couldn€™t use the €œsuccess€? constraint I needed. I was just guessing that this might be the way to do it.

Can anyone help me with a best practice approach to the control flow issue I face? I€™m new if that isn€™t apparent by my question, so don€™t be afraid to make your answer simple and plain.

Thanks for any help,
BCB

Still No Answer

Mar 27, 2006

Unbelieveible!
I can not seem to find any source for questions database related that don't include using 2.0 controls just as the come out of the box!
HELP!!!!
Simple issue (or so it seems) but I can't get an anwer:
Example:
TextBox.Text has information that I want placed in a table in a sql database.  So I build a SQLDataSource control, and the triggers to fire the insert method.  I modify the InsertCommand of the SQLDataSource so that it will write my record to the table.  Something like...
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO MyTable(Description, Status) VALUES ('TextBox.Text', 'Default New Record Status)"
Now... the problem is with 'TextBox.Text' . When formated as is. the text string TextBox.Text is inserted into a record in the target table.  My problem, the simple one remember, is refering to the text string stored inside of TextBox.Text and have that value stored in the new row under the Description column.
I can't believe that no one can help with this simple problem.  Once resolved then my page is done... this is ALL that holds it up and I can't find a reference to how to go about it.
Thanks,Ken....

To Use Cursor Or Not To Use, What Is The Answer ??

Mar 18, 2004

"Falling back on cursors because they remind you of datasets will result in poor performance "

Hi, The above quote was from an article which advice to use store procedure and avoid T-sql in the body of a webpage.
Anyway, To me, I always use cursor when I want to process one row at a time. Is there an alternative to cursor in MS sql server to have similar results.?

Please suggest correct answer (A,B,C,D) for the following Question

You are developing an application for a worldwide furniture wholesaler. You need to create an inventory table on each of the databases located in New York, Chicago, Paris, London, San Francisco, and Tokyo. In order to accommodate a distributed environment, you must ensure that each row entered into the inventory table is unique across all location. How can you create the inventory table?

Give the suitable answer for the below question and explain the answer.

1.You have designed the database for a Web site (or online ticketing agency) that is used to purchase concert tickets. During a ticket purchase, a buyer view a list of available tickets, decides whether to buy the tickets, and then attempts to purchase the tickets. This list of available tickets is retrieved in a cursor.
For popular concerts, thousands of buyers might attempt to purchase tickets at the same time. Because of the potentially high number of buyers at any one time, you must allow the highest possible level of concurrent access to the data. How should you design the cursor?

(A). Create a cursor within an explicit transaction, and set the transaction isolation level to REPEATABLE READ.
(B). Create a cursor that uses optimistic concurrency and positioned updates. In the cursor, place the positioned UPDATE statements within an explicit transaction.
(C). Create a cursor that uses optimistic concurrency. In the cursor, use UPDATE statements that specify the key value of the row to be updated in the WHERE clause, and place the UPDATE statements within an implicit transaction.
(D). Create a cursor that uses positioned updates. Include the SCROLL_LOCKS argument in the cursor definition to enforce pessimistic concurrency. In the cursor, place the positioned UPDATE statements within an implicit transaction.

I'm Sure There's A Very Simple Answer For This....

Nov 12, 2007

Hi,

I'm trying to write a "GetQuote" procedure with a single @Quantity parameter. The purpose of the query is to sum the total cost (price * quantity) of a given (quantity) given the available "Sale" items. The sale table has the following structure:

[SellOrderID] [uniqueidentifier] DEFAULT (newid()),
[OrderDate] [datetime] DEFAULT (getdate()),
[UserID] [nvarchar](50) ,
[SellPrice] [float] ,
[SellQuantity] [int] ,
[QuantRemaining] [nchar](10) NULL,
**QuantRemaining is the sell quantity remaining after existing partial trades on the Sell Order - intentionally denormalised.

A given quantity may be satisfied by multiple 'Sell Orders' and these should be processed from the lowest price first.

e.g. give the following:
SellOrderID QuantRemaining Price
A 100 $2.00
B 300 $3.00
C 200 $1.75
D 350 $2.50

GetQuote 400 should return:
Sum((200*$1.75)+(100*$2.00)+(100*$2.50))

I am relatively new to the DB game and am having problems creating a SQL statement to do this. If anyone has a solution for this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Answer To Aruna&#39;s Q:DTS Problem

Mar 20, 2001

For some reason I can't reply from within your message.

Make sure you have the same version of SQLserver and service pack on the SQL Server and the workstation you are trying to set up the package from, this is error due to different versions.

Your comand should look like: dtsrun /~S.... /~U ..... /~P ....

Hello

I have created a very simple DTS package to transfer data from one database to another on the same server. I am able to successfully execute the package from DTS. But if i try to schedule the package and run it from SQL agent it fails. The job that is created by the SQL agent appears as follows -

'DTSRun /~Z0x2939C85E61C391613034D42DC85BA5E18B1E12D06DC31F 242542405E07594E436B58219AC124F29B80EDEB464ACB52BA 977BF7A0E59BE9C183507AF7CDA9EB1033C1E04009EC5D4467 E1955FB83FA31BC185F4D4398F51F008BDE6677D23F9C5571A 4C3010B0ED1943C234'

and the error message i get is invalid switch .... DTS command invalid options

I have tried working with the /N and /!Y options and they dont work either. Can someone please tell me why is this problem occurring in the first place.


Thanks
aruna

Is There Anybody Here Who Will Find The Answer Of My Problem ?

Mar 6, 2001

Hi all,

Nobody helped me on other SQL forums, I hope here people are better. Here is my problem : I'm trying to uninstall replication before to re-install it (2 servers working on Windows NT and SQL 6.5 SP5). On the publisher server, I chose Server/Replication Configuration/Uninstall Publishing, but then, I'm not able to re-install publication, as the 'Install Publishing' option is disabled. I've found somewhere on the web that I had to remove the distribution option from the system, which disables replication, with the sp_ServerOption stored procedure :

sp_ServerOption "myserver", "dist", false

then I've deleted the distribution database, but all this didn't change anything, the 'Install Publishing' option is still disabled. How can I get the option enabled ?

Thanks in advance if you can help me. Sorry for the English, it's not my native language.

A Logical Puzzle Answer Me, Is It Possible To Get

Nov 30, 2005

I have a view based on few tables okay
I have a query that gives me document details of various revisions
Now i also get the latest rev of those if i use a MAX() in my Query

Now a case where i have say

Docu Numb - Revi - Received Date

Document1 - rev0 - 10/2004
Document1 - rev1 - 11/2004
Document1 - rev2 - 12/2004
Document1 - rev3 - 01/2005
Document1 - rev4 - 02/2005
Document1 - rev5 - 03/2005
Document1 - rev6 - 04/2005
Document1 - rev7 - 05/2005


If i query for latest it gives Document1 - rev7

And if i filter for a month of 12/2004
If i query for latest it should give Document1 - rev2

Now i need to get a filter with latest as rev2,
plus i also need as a indication of actual latest as rev 7
using a query

How do i do that ...

Coz when i use filter for a month and Max then it
does not consider rev7 for that filter and skip the record
and if i try to filter only as per month .. i get a wrong info
as latest rev2 which is not a true info as per database records.


May i possibly get both ... filtered info as per specific month and
also a rev info as what is the latest for a spec document.

Just i need to know is that possible .. in SQl using a query

Any more info needed please mail me on
neeraj.jariwala@gmail.com

THE DEFINITIVE ANSWER: Import CSV Into SQL Server

Mar 15, 2004

Guys
Hunting high and low for the definitive answer to this query.

I need a system to enable the import of a csv file (trypically contacts exported from Outlook) into a SQL Server table unique to that user through a .aspx page.

At the first and most basic level I need to simply get the data into a table.

The ultimate goal though is to have a fully functioning system whereby the user can sync between the csv file and the database enabling them to upload the data for the first time then only update changes subsequently (new records/changes to existing records) etc.

1. Does anyone have code that does such a thing?
2. Does anyone know of a component/utility that can be purchased off the shelf.
3. Is there someone with the capacity to write such a module?

regards in anticipation
Andy.
