I am out of my element here but I have someone who is working on a project for me that entails him migrating our Access database to sql. He wants to load the sql software on our exchange server but our IT guy is saying this is not a good idea. Any thoughts???
Thanks,

Hi.I am wondering if it is a good idea to replicate sql server db filesusing frs.I don't really know how the frs works, sodoes frs replicates the whole database from time to time or just theportion that is changed?Also if the db is expected to change very often, and wouldn't it makethe whole system down?I wonder if it's a good idea just to make a backup of the database andcopy it.What's the usual practice?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi guysWe have a following problem. For security reasons in each table in ourDB we have addition field which is calculated as hash value of allcolumns in particular row.Every time when some field in particular row is changed we create andcall select query from our application to obtain all fields for thisrow and then re-calculate and update the hash value again.Obviously such approach is very ineffective, the alternative is tocreate trigger on update event and then execute stored procedure whichwill re-calculate and update the hash value. The problem with thisapproach is that end user could then change the date in the tables andthen run this store procedure to adjust hash value.We are looking for some solution that could speed up the hash valueupdating without allowing authorized user to do itThanks in advance,Leon
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a complex select statement that is used in several stored procedures. I decided that instead of having x number of T-SQL scripts with the same exact select statement that I would to put this query into a view and then do a select * from View. Recently an instructor told me that this was a bad idea and that anyone who uses a select * from anything should be fired. When I asked for his reasoning his response was to say the least abnoxious. I can understand why a Select * from Table might be a bad idea as the table definition can change, but the chances of a view changing seems much less likely.
Is a view a good idea in this case? Is the Select * from View really a bad idea?
Thanks
Can anyone tell me if turning on the AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS option will have any adverse effects on performance? I've read that it is possible for it to adversely affect performance, because SQL Server “takes a quick break to update database statistics in the middle of the day”. The book does not explain why and I'm always leery of simply accepting something, simply because I’ve read it from a book. This is the first time that I’ve ever heard this and cannot find anything from SQL BOL or any other source.

I have about six different entities that can have zero or more note entities associated with them. The easy way to do this is obviously to have a different "note" table for each of the entities i.e. WorkItemNote, CustomerNote etc.. But I would much rather have a single "note" table since they would all be identical, so I came up with this design:
CREATE TABLE WorkItem
(
WorkItemGuid uniqueidentifier PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT (newid()),
-- rest of table declaration removed for bravity
)
CREATE TABLE Customer
(
CustomerGuid uniqueidentifier PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT (newid()),
-- rest of table declaration removed for bravity
)
CREATE TABLE Note
(
NoteId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
ReferenceGuid uniqueidentifier NOT NULL,
Text ntext NOT NULL,
-- rest of table declaration removed for bravity
)
This way I can get notes associated with a given entity, either Customer or WorkItem, by just selecting from the Note table with its WorkItemGuid or CustomerGuid.
My question is: Is this the best approach to what I am trying to accomplish?
(ps: Apologies if "many to one" is not the right terminology)

Hi,
Today I discovered this command completely by accident and thought that ther are several places which we could use it in our apps.
Talking with a colleague, he is not to sure as it new to him too.
By using this to recover lost identity values, would this have any possible adverse effects on the table, indexes etc.
I can see potential problems when constraints are set between tables/keys. Anyone with any experience using this good and bad would be useful to hear.
Thanks

What would happen if I dropped the distribution db?
I'm having problems configuring distribution and after searching, I found someone that claims they solved the same problem by dropping the distribution db. The resolution is the last post on this thread: http://www.ureader.com/msg/11563430.aspx
Is this safe to do? There are currently no publications and the distribution server is not configured.
Thanks
I am writing a web application that uses a Teradata database as the primary data source. While Teradata is great as a data warehouse and managing Terabytes of information it doesn't do as well when update or inserting. I was thinking of using a local SQL2005 MDF file to hold a few reference tables and an audit table to collect usage information and exception database to capture any errors.
There could be a few thousand users of the web application but no more than a couple hundred at a time.
I just trying to get some opinions on these technique. I am open to all comments and suggestions.
Thank You
Hi,
Any pros and cons of putting sprocs into Source Safe?

I have an application that automatically reads a lot of data from a third-party application into my database, via XML. For example, I might read a couple thousand rows-worth of XML data, one row at a time in a foreach loop.
To reduce the load on their server and database, I thought about putting a 2 second delay in between each of my automatic requests. Would this really help much, or is there enough overhead (setting up/tearing down connections, etc) with each request that it wouldn't reduce server load much anyway?
Is 2 seconds enough? Too little or too much?

Import Exchange into SQL Server with DTS?
Our users enter data into the MS Exchange database using custom Outlook forms. We want to import that data in SQL Server using SQL Server Data Transformation Services (DTS). We do not see Exchange in the Data Source list in the DTS wizard. Is there an easy way to do this? Maybe an OLEDB provider for Exchange?
Thanks,
Bob
Has anyone been able to solve the issue with setting up a package in EM, which connects to an Exchange(.edb) database and extracts the data into a SQL Server db. Previous message posts don't offer much insight. So far, all I have is using Access 2000, to connect & move the data, then extract from here.
Thanks in advance for any help.

We are looking to take rows from an existing SQL server table and use them to create calendar entries in Exchange server.
Is there a way SQL server can be set up so that this can be done as a trigger when new rows are entered into the table?

Hello,
On my SQL Server 2000, I have successfully created a linked server to my Exchange 2000 server (located on the same physical computer). I can't send request and everything is fine.
But now, I would like to apply the "Impersonate" setting. The big problem I've got is that Exchange doesn't use a login and password for the authentification but use the Windows credentials.
I have try things like :
login : <domain name><username> with the real password
login : <username>@<internet domain name> with the real password
but that doesn't work.
I would like to know if there is a way to "impersonate" user log on the SQL Server when they try to use the linked server to Exchange Server.
Thank a lot

Hi all,
I'd like to link a SQL Server database / table to Microsoft Exchange Server E-Mail-Address data, for an Employee Directory project.
I've read a little about "Web Store", a little about ExOLEDB, but I've come across nothing along practical lines. I.e., I still don't know where to begin!
For example the "Web Store" should be created on the SQL server, but how do you create it? Any insights will be greatly appreciated.

I just read that if you use an exchange server...the account that youstart SQL with needs a mail on the exchange box.Is this true?I know I didn't need an account when I've set it up before...but Imight have been using a POP3 server.I have Outlook 2003 installed on the server. Windows 2003 Enterprise.Thanks.

Hello,
I have created a MS Exchange 2000 link server in my MS SQL Server 2k. I have created a stored procedure (and a view...) using info from that linked server. When I am logged on the server as the Administrator, I can call my stored proc without any problems. When I use another computer (and I am not logged as the admin of the server) and I call the stored procedure, the following error is always raised :
Server: Msg 7302, Level 16, State 1, Procedure test_proc, Line 3
" Impossible de créer une instance du fournisseur OLE DB 'exoledb.DataSource.1'. "
<== I know it is a french error but it can be translated as : "Unable to instancied the OLE DB 'exoledb.DataSource.1' provider"
I would like to know if I can make run my stored proc in the admin account or what should I do to make it work
After a trust with exchange server established the xp_SendMailgives the following error:xp_sendmail: failed with mail error 0x80070005Prior to the trust everything worked fine.I have tried the following:1)Checking SQL and SQLAgents accounts all match up with default mailprofile.2)Confirmed I could send from outlook logged in under the account.3)xp_stopmail and xp_startmail4)restarted the SQL Agent5)Confirmed outlook settings as defined in:kb153159 -http://www.sqlnewsgroups.net/link.a...b/153159/EN-US/I also tried a pop3 account just to test, but no luck.I think what is happening is now that the trust is established when SQLmakes a mail contection it thinks it is user admin@<otherdomain> ratherthan admin@<normaldomain> and therefore thinks that agent account isdifferent than the mail account.Please help if you can.Thanks.

I would like to configure e-mail alerts on my SQL Server 2000 box.However, we also run Exchange on the same machine. I've been told therecould be conflicts/issues having Outlook on the same machine asExchange; and apparently, one needs Outlook to configure a mail profilefor SQL Server Agent.Is there, in fact, anything to worry about? If so, are there anywork-arounds beside moving Exchange to another server? (we've only gotone server, so this is not an option for us at this time).Thanks.- Dana

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm about 6 weeks into SQL and SQL Server (7) - I was wondering whether you could share your opinions about which language to use as a programming tool for developing apps for & with SQL Server. I'm choosing between C++ (Visual) or JAVA.
I already know C and the DB-Libe contains a lot of it but I'm kinda trying to expand some horizons. I'm ok with either C++/VC++ or JAVA but I only have time to learn (or be good at) one.
Any suggestions? (I'd like to hear what you think even if you say neither C++ or JAVA - maybe VB? What's easy and marketable is what matters most.)
Thanks.
Hi!
I'm installing a new SQL Server machine. During NT Server
installation our NT support guy converted the only 2GB FAT
C: partition to NTFS. So as of right now all my 4 8GB drives are
NTFS. I think it would be better to keep this C: partition in FAT
because, as of my knowledge, having FAT boot partition can help
to boot the machine in case of NT crash.
Is there anything that I'm really losing by this conversion to NTFS or I
should not be worried so much about it? Does it put my SQL Server
databases, database .dat files or NT Server in more danger situation
in case of any crash?
Or it's giving me some advantages?
Thanks
