I have used this mysql code in my programm before:
select * from address order by vorname asc limit 0, 10
It works fine. But now I want to use sql server, and it doesn't recognize the term limit.
So I have found out that I can use top instead.
I have changed my code into this:
select top 0 * from (select top 10* from address order by vorname) order by vorname asc
hey all, i want to know Equivalent of "LIMIT" of MySQL in SQL Server 2005? in mysql we can direclty get data using LIMIT clause. my question is how to do this in sql server 2005? thanks.
I am looking for a function in MSSQL that performs similar to the LIMIT function in MySQL. Here is the LIMIT function's definition:
The LIMIT clause can be used to constrain the number of rows returned by the SELECT statement. LIMIT takes one or two numeric arguments, which must be integer constants.
With two arguments, the first argument specifies the offset of the first row to return, and the second specifies the maximum number of rows to return. The offset of the initial row is 0 (not 1):
Has anyone successfully used cherry's oledb provider for MYSQL to create a linked server from MS SQLserver 2005 to a Linux red hat platform running MYSQL.
I can not get it to work.
I've created a UDL which tests fine. it looks like this
[oledb]

I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
I'm storing time series data in a table in SQL server 2000. The tablehas columns like: CodeEquity, PriceDate, LastPrice. To extract thelast price for a number of equities on COMMON DATES I have used thequery:select t.LastPrice,h1.LastPrice,h2.LastPrice,h3.LastPrice fromBlg_HistoricData t,Blg_HistoricData h1,Blg_HistoricDatah2,Blg_HistoricData h3where t.CodeEquity=114151 and h1.CodeEquity=112220 andt.PriceDate=h1.PriceDate and h2.CodeEquity=112580 andt.PriceDate=h2.PriceDate and h3.CodeEquity=112228 andt.PriceDate=h3.PriceDatethis works for about 20 self joined tables and then says syntax error.I'm wondering what sql limits it hits. Is it possible to do this inSQL for 300 tables?Thank you.

I just started developing my site locally using SQL Server and am planning to move it to our work's MySQL server. Is there anything that I should be aware of before I continue any furthur? Will I lose any data or is it even an option to move from SQL Server to My SQL???
I am working for a client who needs to move database from MySQL application to MS SQL SERVER 7.0. Is there anybody who has done it before? I need some help about how to load data from one system to another system.
Hi there, I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
At my old job, I developed web applications that were based off of a MySQL server. I used PHPMyAdmin and learned the PHP coding, and although not formally trained in DBA or anything, I became very comfortable with using it and building database applications. I did everything through SQL/PHP script coding or through PHPMyAdmin.
At my new job, I decided to build a database, but only had access to MS Access, which I can use, but don’t necessarily like. One day, in earshot of one of our admins, I grumbled “if I only had access to a SQL server, I’d turn this thing into a very cool web application.� Well, he heard, and gave me access to the SQL server and the web server. Thing is, it’s not MySQL, but MS SQL Server. And I feel like I am at a total loss. I was able to build a basic database in the Enterprise Manager on the SQL server, and create a web site on the web server, but I don’t even know how to begin to connect the two – what is the equivalent of MySQLConnect? I know I would have to learn the VBScript and everything for the advanced stuff, but for right now, I just want to make a simple web page that will do a simple select query from a database and return the rows, and simple forms to input into the database. How do I begin? What do I need to know to begin? I have a feeling the applications already on the server were contracted out, so I don’t actually know if anyone here could help me.
I need to pull data out of SQL Server 2005 and load it into a MySql 5 database, and can't find a way to do this efficiently in SSIS since there's no ODBC destination, and I couldn't find an Oledb driver for MySQL. Any thoughts on the best way to accomplish this, aside from exporting to text, and then loading it into MySql via the mysql client or mysql importer?
Hey there,I'm curious about MySQL. Could anyone quickly summarize thedifferences between MySQL and SQL Server and outline why someone mightpick SQL Server over MySQL?(Please post replies here, email address is fake)Cheers,Geoff GlaveVancouver, Canada
I was wondering what more experienced DBAs have observed with regard to the capacity of a MSSQL DB. Is there an upper threshold of rows where performance becomes unacceptable? I have a fairly slow, but constant input rate of approximately 2,000 rows every 60 seconds or so (that is a little high, but I'm interested in worse case scenario here). That is up 172,800 rows a day. (I'm being overly pessimistic here.) We'd like to be able to keep all of this around as long as possible.
Or would a more heavy duty DB be in order for these sorts of data rates?
Hi, I need some help about a project I'm working on.
I'm working on a project (based on MS SQL Server) that will involve a lot of clients, each one constantly querying the server. Just to have an idea of the project, I'm talking of about 2000 clients, each one queries the database 3-4 times per second: a total of 6-8000 queries per second. The database is reached through Internet and every client uses a dedicated DSL connection.
My questions are: - What is the maximum workload of a Microsoft SQL Server? - What happens when the server workload reaches 100%? is there a queue? and what happens when the queue is full? is it possible that the server goes out of service due the excess of work? - What are (more or less) the hardware requirements for such a server?
can anyone help me, at least telling me how to find these answers (web sites, books, ...)
I'm searching for a way to compare informations from one database against another database.
E.g. i want to check if serialnumbers of my first database (eg hardware.xls or hardware.csv ) are already stored in my sql server database.
I know i can use sql querys (Joins) for that task but i don't know how i can access 2 different databases at the same time. Do i need a tool for it? Does Excel is able to compare those data? But how? I'm searching for that thread since 2 days testing with some tools without any success...
I don't know if this is unique to GoDaddy: I found the program for working with a MySQL database very intuitive (to the point of compliments). Today I started work with ASP.NET and SQL, and when I went to work with SQL Server (on GoDaddy), it wasn't intuitive, and there was almost nothing on which to click. By chance might there be a tutorial that would help a person who needs to work with SQL Server on a provider like GoDaddy?
Hello all, I have an application in which the database is currently in MySQL. The app is being re-written(in .net 3.5) and I would like to move the data to SQL Server 2005. What is the best may to get the data from MySQL to SQL Server. Any good tools out there? Idealy, I would be able to manipulate the data during the move, as I have plans for some schema changes, but I suppose I could always make them after migrating. Please suggest any tools or methods, with your thoughts. I will evaluate any suggested tools. Also, SSIS is available for me, is that the best way?
hi ! i am using SQL Server 2000...someone told me the new version of Mysql 5.0 is very powerfull and it is better than MS products?!!! any good resources about the benefit of using SQL server 2000 rather than open source?!! Thanks!
I have created a linked server to a MySQL database using a DSN. Does anyone know how to run a select statement against a table in the MySQL database? The usual 4 part naming convention does not work.
I can run SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(Top50, 'SELECT * FROM orders') which does return records successfully. (Top50 being the name of the linked server)
My objective is to be able to insert records into the MySQL database and I am not sure how do to that using OPENQUERY. Any thoughts on that would be appreciated as well.
Anyone know how to go about getting data from MySql to MS SQL server? Im a little confussed as to what ODBC driver is needed and all that. Is it possible to this all through enterprise manager? Thanks a lot.
Hi all, hoping someone can help. I have created an ODBC connection to a remote MySQL database. I can then go into DTS wizard and specify this ODBC connection, it all goes through fine and I can see the tables on the remote server and import data. The problem arises when I try and create a linked server using the same ODBC connection. I get the following error, when I try to view the tables. I am so stuck. Any help would be very much appreciated.
We are trying to do a linked server to MySQL from MS SQL2k. We downloaded MyODBC drivers, setup the system dsn successfully but then SQL errors out using both the GUI and the stored proc to add the linked server to mysql. Does anyone have a good site to reference or any words of advice. An hr or so of google didn't really give up any helpfully information.
