Can I install the client utilities for Microsoft SQL versions 6.5 and 2000 in the same machine?
Please, provide me with any information or links in this matter.
When you connect to SQL Server using SQLConnection, how to set client machine name(or IP address) so that you can monitor the process on Server side using Enterprise Manager?

Hi,
I'm trying to re-install SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine andSQL Server client tools. I have succesfully re-installed the desktop engine,but I am getting the following error message when attempting to re-install theclient tools.
"Setup has detected an existing client tools only installation.
Please use the maintenance mode to add client components"
Unfortunately the Upgrade/Add/Remove option is greyed out as
an install option.
I attempted the registry hive rebuild option and the install appeared
to succeed. However, I cannot access any tools (Enterprise Manager
comes up with the message "The selected file cannot be found").
At this point, the desktop engine appears in Add/Remove programs
Window, but no other SQL Server components.
Any help very much appreciated!

I think I may have figured out the solution to my recent conundrum with SQL Server 2000 that had me stressed and depressed over the last couple of days. In a nutshell, after a HotFix was installed on a SQL2K database server I have space on, I was unable to perform INSERT or UPDATE queries on database table of type TEXT, when trying to either create or modify records with more than 4,000 characters of data. While it was frustrating as heck, it seemed too rigid to be random, so I did some snooping.
The HotFix was intended to solve a known problem of not being able to run UPDATEs against TEXT fields, but in so doing, caused another headache entirely: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=839523
Apparently this is a semi-known problem, in that a certain HotFix forces SQL Server 2000 to be a lot more stringent in requiring explicit declaration of data types and data lengths for parameters in stored procedure. In my client code, I was initially using the overloaded constructor of the SqlParameter object that took as arguments only the parameter name and a value, without specifying a value from the SQLDBType enumeration or length of the parameter (which in my case, needs to be TEXT and 16 (or 2147483647), respectively):
System.Data.SqlDataAdapter.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@parameterName",parameterValue);
It appears that after the HotFix is installed, if the client doesn’t syntactically set the type and length of data for a parameter, SQL Server and/or .NET will default to a type of NVARCHAR, which has the 4,000-character limit. This all makes sense. I’m going to now need to modify the code to straight out declare what’s going in the SPROC:
System.Data.SqlDataAdapter.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@parameterName",SqlDbType.Text);
System.Data.SqlDataAdapter.InsertCommand.Parameters["@parameterName"].Value = parameterValue;
It’s a minor change, and it sucks that I have to make it after the code had worked flawlessly over several thousands executions over several months, but c’est la vie! Better thay than have to rebuild my DB from scratch or switch to a new server. Changing the client code evidently is the only known fix at this time: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b827366

Hi nice forum you have here.
Please point me to a link on this forum if I’ve missed something but I could not find an answer to this question yet.
I am new to sql and am looking at running random backups of an sql database. Regular backups are running nightly using maintenance jobs in enterprise manager. These random backups would be started at a point in time just before a specific procedure was run. There will be a user assigned the task of running these backups who has no privilege to log onto the sql server machine (nor will he ever get this privilege).
I would be interested to know if there is a way to script this so that this user could simply start a backup from his workstation. The backup could be a repeat of the scheduled nightly backup storing to the same place or a new backup. The db in question is only 150 +/- MB so time involved in completing this job is minimal (the scheduled backup of this db completes in under a minute).
System is SQL 2000 sp4 on a Win 2003 server with XPpro sp2 clients.
Thanks for any tips, hints or detailed descriptions.
Regards

I have created a PPC application that uses ADS to synchronize my sqlce db with a desktop MS Access database. It works fine on my computers, but my client cant get it to work on his. Here is the situation.
His "Computer Name" as it's stated in his 'My Computer' properties is "PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV"
However his Access.MDW File is located in the directory "C:Documents and SettingsJoe NobodyApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
There is no directory called "C:Documents and SettingsPAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOVApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".

He has tried adding port 1024 as an exception for his firewall settings, has installed Access Database Synchronizer on his computer, and I have also tried using the "long" computer name as the url setting in the config file. (i.e. <URL>http://PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV:1024/</URL> but this throws the error

I am working on SQL-Server 2000 (developer edition) with SP3 on Win 2000 and Clients are Win98/Win XP.
I am not able to 'Step Into' my SQL Procedure code in Debug mode, executed from Query Analyzer from a client machine. As soon as I select the 'Execute' button after inserting all the parameters value, the whole procedure gets executed. But I'm able to do the same (i.e 'step into') from the Server itself.
Do I need any additional configuration settings in the client machine ??
I shall be greatful if anyone can help me to solve the above problem.

I have created a DTS package that pulls data in from Oracle into SQLServer. When I run it directly on the server (from EnterpriseManager), it works fine. When I run it from Enterprise Manager on aclient machine that does not have the Oracle client software, it doesnot run, giving me the error: "The Oracle client and networkingcomponents were not found...". I was hoping I wouldn't need to havethe client software installed on a machine other than the server whereSql Server is running. The problem here is that there are a number ofmachines from where I would like to execute this DTS package that I donot want to install/configure the Oracle client software. I don'tquite understand why the configuration of the client is importanthere. In my mind, when I am using enterprise manager from a clientmachine, I am using it sort of like a terminal services client toconnect to the server. I guess there is a lot more happening in thebackground.Thanks for any feedback,Marcus

Hello,
When SQL05dev is installed a SQL05 version of Visual Studio (SQL05-VS) is also installed (called the €œSQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio€?). The SQL05-VS installs files into a €œC:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsinnVSShellCommon7IDE€? directory (and other directories - not described here).
When the full version VS05pro is installed it installs/uses files in a €œC:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDE€? directory.
The number of files in these two directories is different €“ the directory for VS05pro has (of course) many many more files than the directory for SQL05-VS. On the surface this seems ok since the install of VS05pro should supersede the install of the SQL05-VS and when VS05 is started it utilizes the files from the VS05pro directory and picks up the functions from the SQL05-VS (like SSIS, SSAS, SSRS and such).
But what about the SQL05-VS Common7/IDE directory? In this directory are 64 files that exist in both directores (556 files are not found in the VS05pro Common7/IDE directory). Additionally, there are 10 files that have different versions (mostly having to do with SQL-CE) €“ newer versions are in the SQL05-VS directory.
I€™m confused. Is Microsoft going to support revision changes (Service Packs and such) to both directories? I suppose so, but this introduces possible versioning problems when SQL is updated but VS is not or VS is updated but SQL is not.
I guess I do not understand the rational for not maintaining a single VS directory structure and the problems that this creates. Microsoft is utilizing VS as the IDE for SQL but to not have a really good matching installation layout with the full version of VS is wacky €“ to say the least. Maybe M$ considers maintaing the versions of 64 files to be unimportant for the correct functioning of VS???
Is Installing SQL05dev and VS05pro on the same machine supported?

When installing service pack 2 the installation would not allow me to select ssis or tools. ssis works as long as you are access the machine using a 32 bit remote client however we get the following error when trying to use ssis on the 64 bit machine. How can I fix this problem without reinstalling SQL server?
Error loading type library/DLL. Connect to SSIS Service on machine "<computer_name>" failed:
Think this problem was cuased by installing the service pack 1 hotfixes in the wrong order?
None of the information I have found about this issue has help.
Can someone please help.
I have few DTSX packages on my SQL server 2005. These packages are supposed to transfer data and stored procedures from server to client Express engine. The scenario is that when user connects with the server he should run some kind of utility or any other way to run those SSIS packages so that the data could be transfered.
Remember the user machine has only SQL Express Engine and the packages are in SQL server 2005 machine.
Can any one help me out how to achive this scenario?

I have a simple text box in a table in the body of a report. This renders fine via IE on both my dev box and the client.
However when rendered within a Reportviewer control on the client, the box show the text followed by lots of black squares. Running the app on my dev box is also fine - no black boxes at all.
The report resides on the server, and the server is fully patched.
Any ideas greatly appreciated!
