I'm wondering if theres some easy/simple way of getting what would be the connection string if say I was using visual studio? I'm just tired of having to fiddle with a db connection string because i've missed a letter or a comma.
View 5 RepliesIn MS SS 2005 Management Studio, how do you close the query result screen?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't have much experience with writing Sql, which is why i'm not sure.
But basically, I have a MSSQL 2005 Database that a person can list a property with,
and if the property listing expires by date, the user can relist the listing.
The records on the search function are automatically sorted by date, and I want the relisted records to update the datecreated.
I added "DateCreated" to the relisting storedprocedure to change DateCreated to todays date, but I am guessing.
Specials = @Specials,
ExpirationDate = @ExpirationDate ,DateCreated = GetDate(),
DateApproved = @DateApproved,
This seems to work, but I just wanted to check to make sure it's in the proper format.

Whats the difference between nvarchar and varchar, and which one should I use?

I develop with SQL Server 2000 at work. Because I occasionally work athome I also have SQL Server there.Although the data is not all that important, occasionally I make changesto the structures of the tables in my database at work. (n.b. The wholedatabase is well under 20 MB)I was wondering about a quick and convenient method to communicate thosechanges home. I can't use networked replication because of thefirewalls at each end. (Maybe I could, but I don't know how.)Is there any quick and easy way to transfer table structure updates fromhere to home? I have CD-RW available at each end.It would be acceptable, but not necessary to backup/restore the entiredatabase. I'm more interested in a one-button type of solution, ratherthan an "efficient" method.-- Rick
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am new to Sql, so I think this is a really easy question.
But I am working on a 2005 MSSQL database.
When I add columns to an existing application with data and tables already being used, and the new column will be set to Database Null.
What is an easy way to quickly add the data to all the rows in the table.
For example if I am adding a checkbox, I've been doing it manually, add the column, change all the rows to False, one by one.
And then I can change it to Disallow DBNull.
As I get more and more users this could be a very time consuming process.
So the name of the Table is classifeds_Ads and let's say the column I want to add is Bonus and it needs to be filled with False.
How do I do this???
Thank you in advance

Hi there,
I'm a bit embarrassed about this question, because I'm sure that a lot of you would find it trivial, but I'm really not the best at T-SQL and especially not string handling.
I'm trying to generate a 'parent' value, by replacing characters in the 'child' field with '---'. It's a classic Chart of Accounts sort of problem, for feeding into a Parent/Child dimension in AS. It's a lot easier to understand if you look at this:
This is the set I have:
GLCode GLDescription
0.-.-.---- Balance S
0.0.-.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet
0.0.0.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet
0.0.0.5000 Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area1
0.0.0.5001 Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area2
0.0.0.5002 Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area3
This is the set I want
Ch GLCode Par GLCode GLDescription
0.-.-.---- -.-.-.---- Balance S
0.0.-.---- 0.-.-.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet
0.0.0.---- 0.0.-.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet
0.0.0.5000 0.0.0.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area1
0.0.0.5001 0.0.0.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area2
0.0.0.5002 0.0.0.---- Balance S.Balance Sheet.Balance Sheet.Assets - Area3
That is to say,
0.0.0.---- is the parent of 0.0.0.5001
0.0.-.---- is the parent of 0.0.0.----
0.-.-.---- is the parent of 0.0.-.----
So, what I really need to do is replace the last non '-' string with '-'. I've tried various combos of PATINDEX, CHARINDEX, REPLACE etc, but I'm really struggling. To make in more complicated, and of the strings between the . can be any length.
Any ideas?
I installed Visual Studio 2005 and an SQL Server 2000 enterprice.
I called my SQL-Server instance "PALAGSQL". My computer is called "PEARL"
when I try to create a connection in VisualStudio2005 ,I put Server-Name : "PEARL/PALAGSQL"
.......but I receive error 40 "Could not open a connection"
What did I miss ?
What shall I do.

I added a connection (ADO.NET) object by name testCon in the connection manager - I wanted to programmatically supply the connection string. So I used the "Expressions" property of the connection object and set the connectionstring to one DTS variable. The idea is to supply the connection string value to the variable - so that the connection object uses my connection string.
Then I added a "Backup Database Task" to my package with the name BkpTask. Now whenever I try to set the connection property of BkpTask to the testCon connection object, by typing testCon, it automatically gets cleared. I am not able to set the connection value.
Then after spending several hours I found that this is because I have customized the connection string in testCon. If I don't customize the connection string, I am able to enter the "testCon" value in the connection property of the BkpTask.
Is this an intrinsic issue?
Hi,
I'm having a BIG problem, this is my 3rd day looking for answer !I'm trying to create a custom membership provider with MS SQL database 2005 but not the default ASPNETDB.

I am using sqljdbc41.jar to connect with MSSQL database, it is working fine on my local machine.Where as on the remote server, same class giving me error
Login failed for user '<domain><windows loginID>'
My connection string is URL...
I am using sqljdbc41.jar and on 64 bit processor , I am using following command which included path for sqljdbc_auth.dll java -Djava.library.path= C: sqljdbc_4.1enuauthx64 TestDao and error is Login failed for user '<domain><windows loginID>' why it is not picking up username passed in connection string. I have 2 machines, one is local and other is remote. on both machine I login using my domain, it is working absolutely fine on local then why the error is coming on remote machine.Both the machines are identical.
I have been trying to host my website on Go Daddy for about 3 weeks and I have cleared several problems but this one remains. I can get into the ASPNETDB database for doing logins , etc but I cant access my database called "PINEmgt".
To try to understand where the problem is located,I built a very simple application without login controls and put on it one Detailform accessing a single line table "Signin". I continually get the error message I got with my real app :"The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty. " There is only one connection string in my app -'PINEMgtConnectionString2'. When I run the app locally on my machine it works. After I move everything to Go Daddy, I get the error message and the following dump"
Line 24: </Fields>
Line 25: </aspetailsView>
Line 26: <aspqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStringsINEMgtConnectionString2 %>"
Line 27: InsertCommand="INSERT INTO Signup(first_name, last_name, email, customer_id) VALUES (,,,)"
Line 28: SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Signup]"></aspqlDataSource>
This is indeed the code from my single page app.
The dump is:
[InvalidOperationException: The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty.]

After Googleing, asking Go Daddy for info (which they dont give) , etc for three weeks, I need serious mental help
in the form of a solution of this problem. Your help with the problem or the name of a good mental health professional in eastern N.C. (maybe both) would be appreciated.

I have a child package where the ConnectionString property of a Connection Manager is set by a Parent Package Variable Configuration. I set up a script task that brings up a message box with the value of the ConnectionString property right before the dataflow task.
MessageBox.Show(Dts.Connections["CPU_*"].ConnectionString.ToString());When I run the parent package, the message box shows that the connection string is changing with every iteration, but in the dataflow it always draws the data from the same source.
The connection manager is an ADO.Net type, RetainSameConnection is set to False, and I've been researching this for days.
(Update 2/23/2015): To make this stranger, when I look at the diagnostic logs, they tell me that when the new connections are being opened they are using the new connection strings.
I came across something strange today. I was wondering I was doing something wrong.

I have a super simple package that inserts x000's of rows into a temporary table. The data source is a file that the user will upload. I need to be able to tell the package what file to upload. I'm thinking the simplest thing would be to edit the connectionString property of the SourceConnectionFlatFile at runtime. Is this possible? What form should the file path be in (UNC, other)? And, are there any other considerations I should be aware of?
Thanks!
Good Morning,
I hope that I am just missing a step in the process somewhere. I have established a string variable called DatabaseServer and another called DatabaseName. In the OLE DB connectionstring expression I have the following:
Code Snippet
"Data Source=" + @[User::DatabaseServer] + ";Initial Catalog=" + @[User::DatabaseName] + ";Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;"
My understanding is that changing the variable from SERVERA to SERVERB should repoint the connection. (Test to pre-production to production in my current promotion environment.) This should also take effect in any dataflow task using the database connection above right? When I try to repoint the server variable (and only the server variable) I am either a.)throwing errors saying the original connection cannot be found in the data flow task, or b.)the job appears to be processing fine, but the repoint did not take place and data is still flowing to the original server.
Can anyone offer suggestions as to what I am missing?
The properties values in the DB connection:
ConnectionManagerType is OLEDB
DataSourceID is blank
DelayValidation is False (Setting to true changes nothing in my test)
Expression for ConnectionString is (see above)
RetainSameConnection is False
SupportsDTCTTransactions is True (and appears to be unchangeable.)

I'm attempting to make a "Database Driven Hierarchical Menu" from this tutorial http://aspalliance.com/822
It explains in the tutorial that you must change the connection string to point to your database and add user name and password. (i dont have a user name or password for my local server, or atleast I dont think I do!)
Below is my connection string:DataSet ds = new DataSet();
string connStr = "server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=true;database=Product.mdf";using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connStr))
{string sql = "Select MenuID, Text, Description, ParentID from Menu";SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(sql, conn);
da.Fill(ds);
da.Dispose();
Every time I try to run the page I get this error.
Cannot open database requested in login 'Product.mdf'. Login fails.Login failed for user '*****'
Can anyone see where I'm going wrong? I'm quite new to all this so I apologies if this seems a bit stupid.
Many Thanks
