I know SQL Server 2005 isn't out yet untill next year, but I am wondering if anyone knows about when the MCP exams might come out for it?
I am an MCSD and MCAD, and I am thinking about getting MCDBA soon, and I am wondering if it would be better for me to wait for the SQL Server 2005 exams.

Can anyone tell me where to find a site with Braindumps specifically for Brainbench exams SQL ANSI and SQL Server 2000? Even though they are "open book", they are more challenging than I previously thought. Or if not, can anyone suggest some VERY useful books/materials to pass exams with Intermediate-Expert level knowledge of SQL and SQL Server?
Responses can be directed to stevengara@hotmail.com
Thanks,
Steve G.

Can anybody answer :
Are MCDBA (SQL Server 2000) exams still available today ?
Is it worth going for this exam today, in spite of the fact SQL Server 2005 has been released ?

The programmers encountered a problem as following:
Different programmers use the same account(Admin) to login to the same database to create table from different workstation. The tables were created through the same steps which is highlighted the Table folder -->New table then go through the wizard. The table were created successfully but the ownership were different. One with Admin as owner, the other has dbo as owner. Even Admin is the owner of the database but this created a problem for them that they need to specify differently for the tables depend on who created them.
what is the cause of this, sevice pack 3 is installed on the machine.
Its Sql Server 7.0
Thanks in advance.

I'm in deep problem...please help...
There was someone who got into the system and modified the database properties to DBO use only..what we want to do is to track such changes with when they did.
As like what happened earlier..some told me about turning the audit level to all will help but it does not give the information about who has did and what did they do...
Is there a way in which we can find out what happened and who did this what command they have executed...
Thanks..i appreciate your help..

Dear friends,
After installing visual interdev, on a webserver (nt4.0 ent server),
whenever I was trying to configure the DSN on the ODBC settings, It gives
" The ODBC resource DLL (C:WINNTSYSTEM32odbcint.dll)is a different
vaersion than the ODBC setup dll(c:winntsystem32odbccp32.dll)
you need to reinstall the ODBC components to ensure proper operation." error msg.
I thought of removing all the ODBC drivers and reinstlling the odbc drivers came with NT SERVER. I don't know how to do it. If anyone knows how to do it, can you please post it. Thanks a lot.

I tried SQL mirroring in beta 1 , then it was gone, until SP1.
Now I can not setup mirror, it is fine if it is just hard to setup, but it seems it is full of bug! The mirroring has to be stable, since I am trying to mirror product db, what a diaster if something goes wrong.
I am trying two servers, both has 9.0.3042. First I tried to setup on my home machine, I VPN to my network, After I config security, I see two connection strings:
TCP://sql8.mydomain.netsql2005:5022
TCP://sql5.mydomain.netsql2005:5022
and I click start mirroring, then I got error - Alter failed due to invalid connection string. Hard to figure it out, right?
Then I tried the same thing on a server in the network, this time I get
TCP://sql8.mydomain.net:5022
TCP://sql5.mydomain.net:5022
and it doesn't show that error anymore, I am not sure why the connection should be like the latter format, but in anyway, how come SMO can not make it right?
then I get another error, SQL server doesn't exist or can not access, I search on the Internet, it seems that error could mean anything, include that the mirror db is not in restore mode.
But I did set the mirror db in restore mode and both sql5 and sql8 are under same domain, pysically close.
So what else I can check?
Any suggestion?
thanks

Our SSIS package suddenly stopped loading. We have 64 bit server on which we run SSIS packages. We had problem "script task failed to load" so we started to use the 32-bit version of dtexec to run the packages. Package used to run fine.
Today we upgraded our server to Sp1 and 2153 hot fix (x64) and now the package have stopped to load.
we confirmed that the issue is not as inthe KB below:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B918038
We are still using the 32-bit version of DTExec(as in SQLx86). With 64 bit we get the error "script faield to load". we are going to fix the script failed to load error but, we need help to get going right now.
help would be greatly appreciated

We're developing a WinForm app that is being deployed via ClickOnce. The application will have the ability to import/export data with the intention of this being done via SSIS. When this app is deployed and run against SQL Express, the following error gets generated:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {E44847F1-FD8C-4251-B5DA-B04BB22E236E} failed due to error: 80040154?.
Is SSIS functionality supported in SQL Express?

Hi everyone, I have a question. We need to create a server report to display a one product's information at the left (datasource with a one ID of selected product) and other products to compare at the right (second datasource with N of IDs of products to compare). The problem is how to duplicate the first List element with selected product on the every page (by default it renders only on the first page)? Any ideas?

Hello everyone, I've been searching the forum for three hours now and I couldn't find anything that helped me.
First I thought I didn't install the SQL server properly, I now found out that it is installed properly.
I am using VWD 2008 Express Edition. I could access the aspnetdb in the SQLExpress server. I could modify entries and create new databases. So the server obviously works.
Problem -> I cannot access the WebSiteAdmin modul ... for no apparent reason, it always gives me a timeout.
If you restart the tool by clicking the asp.net icon in the traylist stop it, then retry over the button in the VWD, then I did that a dozen times. I restart the tool and then access it five seconds later, no matter what I do I always get a time out.
Any help is appreciated, I can't solve this and I really really need it. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello All,
I am trying to perform a performance audit on a SQL Server where I am positive my most likely bottle neck is the disks. I assume the primary metrics I should be interested in are %Disk Activity and Disk Queue Length, right?
What are the actually guidelines for these metrics? Also, Are there other perf mons I should be running against the disks?
Thanks In Advance.
