Is SQL Server An Option?
Jun 6, 2006
First off, I apologize for not knowing what I'm talking about and being long winded. I'm trying to determine if SQL Server Express is an option for a client of mine. Their needs are beginning to go beyond what I'm comfortable with in Access, so I'm looking into the option of upgrading to a SQL Server Express back-end with a VB front-end.
Access doesn't require any setup beyond "File, new", so I know nothing about the background work required to get a database running on a platform like SQL Server.
My first concern is what kind of network admin rights do I need to install & use SSE..
It's unlikely that her IT group will just hand us the keys to any of their servers, so all we really have available is what we can put on her network drives. Am I right in assuming that using a SQL Server database would involve more network privileges than just dropping a file on the network and pointing my front end app at it?
With that said, I think I remember seeing something on one of the MSDN pages about setting up a database to run off of a CD-Rom. Could I somehow use this capability to get what I need?

Hi everyone In my SqlServer Management Studio Express, on start up it shows the server type option, but greyed.So that value is fixed to database engine. ( I'm trying to work on an SqlServer Compact Edition database through the SSMStudiothat's why I'm trying to get this to change.)Besides, after I connect i go to the Object Explorer, expand the server node, and go to Replication.When i expand replication, i get the "Local Subscription" option, but nothng for Publication.( I want to work on Merge Replication, that's why I desparately need Publication to work)Am i missing something here? I did not install SqlServer separately, I only have what comes bundled with the Visual Studio 2005 Setup.

So I started a new job recently and have noticed a few strange configurations. Typically I would never mess with min memory per query option and index create memory option configuration because i just haven't seen any need to. My typical thought is that if it isn't broke... They have been modified on every single server in my environment.
From Books Online:
• This option is an advanced option and should be changed only by an experienced database administrator or certified SQL Server technician.
• The index create memory option is self-configuring and usually works without requiring adjustment. However, if you experience difficulties creating indexes, consider increasing the value of this option from its run value.

Hi Everone,
I'm new here so please bear with me. I'm not sure how to ask this question so I have not done a search yet.
I have a proc that creates select statements on the fly from a feeder metadata table for ten tables at a time, all the time. Until now everything was on one server. Now some of the data tables are on another server, but this is not a problem.
There are some times when one of the tables is missing and the proc throws an error (as it should) and stops the execution of the 9 table builds. When it was all on one server, it would always throw an error and continue. Now when it's reading through a linked server it will not continue.
What can I do ? Thank you all.
Ken

I'm using a package configuration to set the value of a user variable which I then use inside my package to build out a certain expression. I got this to work with the XML file option, but I can't get it to work using the SQL Server option.
So this is what Im doing.
(1) I copy pasted the package that works with the XML config option.
(2) In the new package, I deleted the existing XLM config and created a new one, this time choosing the SQL Server option. After I finish, I see that the dbo.SSIS_Configurations table gets created in my database with the value of my variable in there.
(3) I run the package and I see that it works. I'm not sure at this point if it is working because it's reading the value from the config table or from the BIDs environment where I initialized the value.
(4) Anyway, I then go and update the value of my variable in dbo.SSIS_Configurations.
(5) When I run the package again, it doesn't see the new value. What am I doing wrong?

One of the configuration options that can be set for the server is called "user options". User options contains sub-options such as ansi_warnings, ansi_padding, ansi_nulls, arithabort, etc..
Using T-SQL, how are these set?
sp_configure 'user options', @configvalue = 'value'
go
reconfigue with override
go
i.e. Are the individual option values summed. Say I wanted to set ansi_warnings (whose value is 8) and ansi_nulls (whose value is 32) on and all other user options off. Then is my @configvalue 40?
Sorry, but I don't feel BOL is clear on how to set these options.
TIA Gary

I'm in VS 2005 trying to access a database running on MS Sql Server Express 2005 (local machine). In VS i choose Data | Connect to Database | and then i select change on the Add Connection Dialogue box. For some reason I'm only given two options which are the following:
MS Access Database File or MS SQL Server Database file. I've seen options in books showing MS SQL Server but that doesn't show as one of my options. I'm running the Server express locally and can access it through my Management Studio Express as localmachinesqlexpress.
Is this a limitation of Express or do i need to adjust some options in the IDE?
Any help would be great.

I'm pretty new to MSSQL. We have SQL 2K and I was wondering if anyone has seen this issue before.
When I create/modify an Alert there is no option for "SQL Server Performance Condition Alert" in the Type under General tab.
Has anyone seen this before? What can I do to get this type of Alerts?
Just a note -- on my other SQL servers they have the options.
thanks in advance !

In SQL Server 2000, can you enable an option to check password retries? For example if an SQL Server ID logs incorrectly 5 times, you disable the login account.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 onto my XP Professional PC. When I get to the "Components to install" part, the "SQL server database services option" is greyed out. Infact, all options except "Workstation components..." are greyed out. I've tried uninstalling all previous versions of SQL server and trying again, but with the same results.
any help would be much appreciated

Hi All,
Use Case1:
Just wanted to know if there is something like multiple cascade delete option in SqlServer 2005.
My table structure is similar to what is given below
create table test ( id int PRIMARY KEY, tname nvarchar(55))
create table childTest ( id1 int REFERENCES test(id) on delete cascade,
id2 int REFERENCES test(id) on delete cascade, tname nvarchar(55))......
The above creation fails for childTest since both id1 and id2 reference test with ondelete cascade.
As per Books online: The series of cascading referential actions triggered by a single DELETE or UPDATE must form a tree containing no circular references. No table can appear more than once in the list of all cascading referential actions that result from the DELETE or UPDATE.
Doesn't look like a circular reference here. Wanted to confirm if it is because test is being referenced twice in the childtable.
My requirement is if a row is deleted from test, it should delete matching rows from childTest(id1 and id2). Since delete cascade is not being allowed for both columns , I have to handle the delete in id2.
Use Case2:
Also can I have INSTEAD OF DELETE and Cascade delete on the same table?
I have a cascade delete from table1 to table2. which means when any row from table1 is deleted corresponding rows from table2 are deleted. and on table2 I would like to have an instead of delete where I would like to delete rows from another table say table3.
Thanks & regards

I am having problems setting up a linked server in 7.0 Enterprise Manager. I am trying to setup the linked server using the "they will be imperonated" choice for the "For all users that are not defined in the list below" choice on the security tab. All servers I am trying to link to are registered in enterprise manager.
I can setup the linked servers on the source server itself and access tables from the linked servers as long as I am logged into the source server (where the linked servers are defined). E.G. I am logged into server SQL2 and have linked to server TST2. I can see tables from SQL2 in enterprise manager just fine.
However, when I try to access the linked server (TST2) from an enterprise manager running on an NT workstation (NT-RINEHARTS) or a 9x PC than I get the following error:
18456: Login failed for user ''.
It looks like the domain nameusername is not getting passed along to the linked server. Why won't this work from a remotely run Enterprise Manager? IS it supposed to? AM I leaving something out?
Again all linked servers are registered in Enetrprise Manager running on the NT workstation.

Ok, I need to test my webservice with the 'use custom server' option on so that I can specify a base URL that I can reference from apps on a remote machine. I have a connection string I am using to access a sql server db that has Integrated Security=true and windows login has a login for it created in the db.
However, whenever I try to call a webmethod I get this error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
But when I call the same webmethod specifiying a sql login / pw, and not integrated security, my webmethod works.
I want to use integrated security though, please help!

I have come up with an issue where I want to update data in a table using bulk/SET update to get the result shown in below code with output in column titled "Arrear Amt".
Please use this test data.
CREATE TABLE ##vOD_Calc
(
Seq_No INT ,
Contract_id INT ,
Rental_id INT ,
Actual_OD INT ,
Logic_OD INT ,
Due_dte DATETIME ,
[Code] .....
Logic required is that once the sum of column [ArrearAmt] of current row and all previous rows becomes greater than $100 then column [ChArrrearAmt] should show that summed up value and in else case the column [ChArrrearAmt] should show the same value as that of column [ArrearAmt].
Once the column [ChArrrearAmt] reaches the threshold of $100 then the same cycle should start again i.e. in above example rental#1 had $37.17 < $100 then rental#1 + rental#2 is also < $100 and at rental#3 sum of rental#1, rental#2 and rental#3 becomes $111.51 which is greater than $100 so its updated in column [CHArrrearAmt]. The same cycle start overs from rental#4 onwards however the summation of [ArrearAmt] will now begin after rental#4 onwards and not from the starting.
Below is the loop based SQL script which handles the above situation, however in BULK its a total deterioration of performance if thousands of rows are to be processed i.e. with a contract having multiple rentals.
The case here is that I have to use the result of previously updated column value of [ChArrrearAmt] to take decision for the next row, however with BULK update since the row is not yet updated with latest amount therefore the decision on next row is also giving wrong result.
This is the code with which I have achieved to update the column 'chArrear Amount', however its a loop based solution and performance killer.
INSERT INTO ##vOD_Calc_loop
( Rows_count ,
contract_id
)
SELECT COUNT(*) ,
T.Contract_id
FROM ##vOD_Calc T
GROUP BY T.Contract_id
[Code] ....

A common partitioning scenario is when the partition column has the same value for every record in the partition, as opposed to a range of values. Am I the only person who wonders why there isn't an option to automatically partition a table based on the unique values of the partition column? Instead of defining a partition function with constants, you ought to be able to just give it the column and be done. This would be particularly valuable for tables partitioned on a weekly or monthly date; when new data is added it could simply create a new partition if one doesn't already exist.

I have created a database with several tables. I want to create a database diagram to show the relationshipbetween the tables. Below are the steps from the SQL Server 2005 documentation on how to create a database diagram. The problem is that when I right click on the Database Diagrams folder I am only given two options. They are:"Working with SQL Server diagrams" and "Refresh"There is no menu choice to create a new database diagram. Can anyone tell me what the problem here is?
To create a new database diagramIn Object Explorer, right-click the Database Diagrams folder or any diagram in that folder.
Choose New Database Diagram on the shortcut menu.
The Add Table dialog box appears.
Select the required tables in the Tables list and click Add.
The tables are displayed graphically in the new database diagram.
