I'm looking at using SQL Server CE as a replacement for MS Access in a WIN32 Delphi Application. This limits my database options to Providers that is usable from ADO.
I see that the OLE DB Interfaces are implemented, but I can't connect to a SQL Server CE database from Delphi. I've cut and paste a sample connection string (replacing the data source bit) but no go??
I've installed the Runtime Environment, VS2005 bit, Connectivity Tools and the SDK :)
Dear friends I have a problem with the use of DELPHI and MSSQLServer!
I have installed in a PC a MSSQLServer Express. The PC is connected with a other via a small network. I have developed an application in DELPHI which runs also in the two computers. I have regulated SQLServer so as to is accessible via TCP/IP, make that I tryed after in the other PC I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express and had access in the database via the network. While in the beginning both applications worked normaly and were connected regularly in the base suddenly one day they couldn't be connected giving as message the following "DataBase Server Error: SQL State: 08001, SQL Error Code: 17 ", as there was no server. That is to say without I have teased the properties the access to DataBase was impossible via the application but possible via the SQL Server Management Studio Express and the environment of Borland Delphi 2005 from both PC's. That is to say suddenly only the application simply could not be connected. I tryed a lot of solutions but no one it did not work. When I installed the MSSQLServer Express in the other PC the application could be connected from this but no from the other via network always giving the same message. Has anyone any idea why I am in impasse from solutions!!!!
I have a Client/Server app built with SQL Server + Delphi as Front-end. I have maybe 15 TTable components (active tables in the app.) and when runnning the app, each table uses 1 connection to the server. I had to boost the # of user connections from 15 to 25 just to run 1 instance of the app. If i try running another instance of the prog. the server needs 15 x 2 connections. I`m wondering if this is NORMAL? Would it be possible to have only one connection per instance instead of 15 !?!
Importing CVS to SQLServer 2005 in a web application: I need to import CSV file to a table. This is a .Net 2.0 web application running in the WebServer which has .Net 2.0 installed. SQL Server 2005 is a database in another machine. What are my options? Would SSIS work in WebServer if no database installed in that machine. Thanks
Hi, I've just got my brand new shiny SQLServer and would like to set some new tables set up etc. But I'm really lazy and I was wondering if there is any way of importing table layouts, coulmns, whole structure type thing into SQLServer from Microsoft Access using DTS? I know it's a bit optimistic, but just wondered....
Not sure if this is the correct Forum, anyway lemme me know your views. I have SQL Server running in two remote machines (in different geographical locations). I need to import a database from one SQL Server installation to another installation. What is best possible solution:
1) Transfering the .mdf and .ldf file from one installation to another installation
2) Generating the records of all the tables in the database to a common file format CSV and then loading it in destination database. If this is ok then how to generate import and export data using CSV format

I am trying to import application tables from oracle but they do not show up in the list of tables. I suspect that this is because the tables are owned by System. Is there any way other than changing the owner to get these tables to appear in the import list?
I am having a problem to get all datas into one table I must get datas from 2 other tables datas from the first table are columns but datas of the second table are rows
I cannot change the structure of TableA because an other application is using it as it is
TableA num | value | key 1 | a | 1400 2 | b | 1401 3 | c | 1402 4 | d | 1403 ...|... | 1403
TableB key | name | descr | value 400 | john | ok | 451
TableC (the table where I want to insert datas from Table1 and Table2)
val1 | val2 | val3 | val4 |name | descr | value 1 | 2 | 3 |4 | john | ok | 451
TableA has thousands of rows and different numbers I must get 8 different datas from TableA
so I get an horrible Query !
SELECT
TableB.name, TableB.descr, TableB.value, TableA_1.value AS val1, TableA_2.value AS val2, TableA_3.value AS val3, TableA_4.value AS val4, TableA_5.value AS val5, TableA_6.value AS val6, TableA_7.value AS val7, TableA_8.value AS val8
FROM dbo.TableB INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_1 ON TableB.key = TableA_1.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_2 ON TableB.key = TableA_2.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_3 ON TableB.key = TableA_3.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_4 ON TableB.key = TableA_4.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_5 ON TableB.key = TableA_5.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_6 ON TableB.key = TableA_6.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_7 ON TableB.key = TableA_7.key INNER JOIN dbo.TableA_8 ON TableB.key = TableA_8.key
WHERE TableA_1.num = 145 AND TableA_2.num = 80 AND TableA_3.num = 3160 AND TableA_4.num = 41 AND TableA_5.num = 50 AND TableA_6.num = 51 AND TableA_7.num = 53 AND TableA_8.num = 56
i'm importing tables from another sql server - now the tables are coming is as esther.tablename (my username on the other server) instead of dbo.tablename
I'm trying to input a few thousand flat files into a few thousand tables in a sql databaseim using integration services with a for each loop to read all the files in a directorythe problem is i can only insert the data from all the files into one tabledoes anyone know a way to do multiple tables? maybe using some sort of variable?
I've got a csv that I need to import. It's about 74 columns wide and 2500 rows long. What I need to do is select the first 3 columns from the columns from the csv and put them into one table and then put every 7 columns (plus the 1st column as the primary key) into a different table.
I've not explained that very well, basically it's like this...
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P
1
2
3

Table 1 Data
cs# A1 fe B1 cl C1
Table 2
cs# A1 desc D1 date E1 pay F1 amount G1 vat H1 total I1 cReq J1
I'm not really sure were to start. I want to import the data nightly into the tables. I've tried to use the import wizard but I can't seem to select the data I want and exclude the data I don't.
hi. this is a beginner question as i am new to databases :)so, I have an access database and I want to take 2 tables from it and copy it to sql server in my ASP.NET application (.MDF file)I have visual studio 2005 installed on my computer and got no sql server 2005 installed on it. what is the way copy 2 tables to the ASP.NET database application?thanks alot guys.
I'm fairly new to MS SQL & I have a problem copying tables from one d/b to another. When I do an import or export select Copy tables, the tables & the data get transferred, but all the Identities are set to NO. My D/Bs have 188 tables & it's a pain to reset all of them manually.
Is there a setting I don't know about that will transfer the tables & maintain the Identity? (I'm using SQL Server Management Studio 9.0)
Windows XP Pro - Sql Server 2005 Management Studio (current) - current visual foxpro oledb driver
I have an origin data folder with many foxpro dbf files
When I go through the "wizard" to import data from the origin folder using the "free table" option, I can locate the folder just fine. The form shows me a list of the files in the folder - but I cannot scroll through the list.
When I select the folder and continue, I test the connection and get a message that it is fine.
Then I go on to actually import tables. The list that is presented of tables that I can import does not include all the dbf files in the folder. There are 207 files in the origin folder, but only a fraction (about 120) of those show up in the list as candidates to be imported. I cannot see a pattern to the ones that are excluded from the list.
Does anyone know what could be causing this strange behavior?
Does anyone know how I can do this? I have 2 tables in an ODBC datasource (INV HEADER) and (INV DETAILS). The relationship on these 2 tables is (INVNUM). I want to import these tables into SQL 2005 on a nightly basis by date. The problem is the date field is on the (INV HEADER) table and not the (INV DETAILS) table. Basically I want to import all the (INV DETAILS) rows that have the same (INVNUM) as the (INVHEADER) but don't know how to do this. I could use a join on the source tables but how would I direct specific columns to 2 different destinations? Any help on this would be great and appreciated. Thanks
I try to connect (locally) to SQLServer Express from Delphi5. On my developer computer, which has Windows XP, SQLServer 2000, VisualStudio2005 (and with that, SQLExpress 2005), it is no problem. However, when I transfer my program and the database to other computers with Windows 2000/WindowsServer2003 and a more recent standalone-version of SQLExpress, I get error messages like:
'Db-Library error 10004: No connection possible: SQL Server not available or not existing'
It does not matter which protocols I activate at the Server or whether the Server Browser service is running or not.
Does anybody have an idea how this might be fixed? Or whether it is a problem of the operating system?
I am going to set up a new SSIS package that will import data into 5 different tables on a SQL Server database. The source of the data is on another SQL Server and I will use to select the data. If one of the tables fail to import I do not want the SSIS package to import any of the data.What is the best way to create this package? Is it best to create one SSIS package, with five data flow tasks that are linked to each other. Within each data flow task, is a Source and Destination to transfer the data to each table.
I'm trying import 7 tables from each of 30 SQL2005 databases into a SQL2005 Consolidation database. I can simply create data flow tasks for each one but instead I would like loop through a list instead.
I've created a table to house the names of the databases from which I want to import the data. I've created SQL task to return the database names from the table as a "Full Result Set". I've assigned the result set to a user variable (type = Object) an named the result name 0
What I'd like to do is create a data flow task which connects to each of the databases and imports 7 specified tables from each database appending the table name with my database name in the result set.
I'm stuck on how I'd set the connection strings in my OLE DB Source in my Data Flow task. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
If I have an XML without an XSD what is the best way to create and import data in SQL Server? I know I can use xsd.exe to create an XSD from my XML.
But if I want my structure to be somewhat different in SQL server how would I go about creating a reliable and repeatable import system for my data so i can easily manage the data updates?
I am using Delphi 7 and need to save mulitple documents that range from 2K KB to 200K KB. These need to be stored in the database for inclusion in the database backup.
When i am working on the 200K KB file i continusely run out of memory, how can i resolve this.
Hello,I have a situation where I have to run a Delphi 1.0 application onWin95 via ODBC to MS-SQL 6.5 server. This is working for me onseveral workstations.I always install 16-bit BDE and make appropriate changes to odbc*.INIfiles, etc.I have a machine which has just now been setup for this situation -and at the same time converted to a wireless network card.Everything works great as far as network connection, running querys,etc. But when get to the point of saving a transaction - I am gettingthe message:"Error - EDBEngineError(General SQL error. [Microsoft]{ODBC SQL ServerDriver][SQL Server]Line 2: Incorrect syntax near 'DATE_TIME')Here is the sql statement and partial source code:sql.Add('INSERT INTO INVOICES (INVOICE_NO, TOTAL, TAX, VOID_CODE,TYPE_CODE,');SQL.Add('invoices."DATE_TIME", TERM_NUMB, USER_NUMB, CUSTOMERID,BATCH)');SQL.Add('VALUES (:xINVOICE_NO, :xTOTAL, :xTAX, :xVOID_CODE,:xTYPE_CODE,');SQL.Add(':xDATE_TIME,'+':xTERM_NUMB, :xUSER_NUMB, :xCustomerID,:xBATCH)');ParamByName('xINVOICE_NO').AsString := InvoiceTotals.InvoiceNumber;ParamByName('xTOTAL').AsFloat := InvoiceTotals.Total;ParamByName('xTAX').AsFloat := InvoiceTotals.Tax;ParamByName('xVOID_CODE').AsString := vcFinalized;ParamByName('xTYPE_CODE').AsString := InvoiceTotals.TypeCode;ParamByName('xDATE_TIME').AsDateTime := InvoiceTotals.DateTime;ParamByName('xTERM_NUMB').AsInteger :=FUseStation;{InvoiceTotals.StationNumb;}ParamByName('xUSER_NUMB').AsInteger := InvoiceTotals.UserNumb;ParamByName('xCUSTOMERID').AsString := InvoiceTotals.CustomerID;ParamByName('xBATCH').AsString := DateToFieldStr(FUseBatch);ExecSQL;I realize DATE_TIME is some sort of reserved word but in this context(ie. table name and quotes) it works on all other stations.

I am having the following problem and any help would be GREATLYappreciated:In an application I am developing, at some points we create a newtable. When I create this table on another users box, I can not accessit from my box. In sql server I am dbo, but the table created by myapplication when run on a different box has an owner of : "FCxxxx". Ihave sent permissions on this thing to public, but I am still gettingan error when I try to query this thing from my application. And I cannot get query analyzer to recognize this thing. I can see it inEnterprise manager. I would think there is a way to handle this sortof thing. If anyone out there has done anything like this I would bemuch obliged for any ideas. Thanks.Sincerely,Ed HawkesJoin Bytes!
Help - I need to import data into an existing table. Most import rows were unique, so I had no problem using DTS and appending. However, some import rows match existing rows except for one column/field that contains updated/new data, and I have to either replace the entire row with the imported row, or replace the individual field with the new data. How do I do that when there are many rows to import? It would take forever typing in all the data using UPDATE. Thanks in advance for your help!
I am using the Import wizard to import a SQL2000 database to SQL2005 and noticed 2 problems:
1. all tables and views were selected; the tables were imported correctly but the views were created as tables, ignoring the "Create view" syntax. The SQL generated contains "Create table" syntax instead of "Create View".
2. when a table contained a column with an "identity" property, the data was successfully imported, but the values for the "identity" column were not preserved, instead they were resquenced from 1 with an increment of 1 (the default values for an identity). When I opened the "Edit" (under "Mapping"), "enable identity insert" was not checked.
A further note: I created all tables in the SQL2005 database before running the Import.
I'm trying to import some tables from another sql server to my laptop. I just downloaded Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express and i'm not sure how to import things. Could anyone help me with that?
