Hi
Books online mention the existence of sample code for several custom tasks, including the one mentioned in the title. But, when I try to find this code in the location mentioned it is nowhere to be found.
I have run a search on the rest of my drive and come up empty.
Can anyone tell me where to find this?
Thanks

Hi
im a beginner in SQL. I installed SQL Server Express on my computer, but i didnt find any databases included. The institute where i go to learn SQL have plenty of databases, but students usually work on databases called AdventureWorks and GlobalToyz. I searched the web for these databases and found something but i still cant figure out what to do with it. So i was hoping if anybody could send me these databases with brief instructions on how to install it into SQL Server. Thanks in advance
I had installed the sample database " AdventureWorks ",but i couldn't find it in SQL Server Management Studio,and I noticed than it was installed into "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Samples" directory,but not "Microsoft SQL Server" directory,what can I do to find the datebase.
I am a beginner,and learning sqlserver by using tutorials,someone help me?
many many thanks.
I install the SQL 2005 Evaluation. I selected to install samples and documentation during the installation wizard. It finished successfully but I could not find the sample databases on the SQL Management Studio. Why?
Thanks.

This question is for SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005, and SQL Server 2008.
I want to provide users a sample database with data and a database template which new databases created in an application will be based on. However, I don't want to use scripts to create database and other database objects and also don't want the data to be contained in other data store such as access database. I think about providing users with operating system files(mdf, ndf, log). My understanding is that database created thru attaching will follow the collation of the source. Is that a way to control the attaching so the database created thru attaching will follow the collation of the destination server?
If attaching is not a good way to handle my case, what are other possibilities?

I created a database using SSMS, now I want to add sample data.
What are the methods of adding sample data from the server?
Do I need to use the SQL Server client or can I use the SQL command line or query window?
Thank you,

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble installing the sample Adventure database. I went to the following location:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E719ECF7-9F46-4312-AF89-6AD8702E4E6E&displaylang=en
to download AdventureWorksDB.msi. Once I save that to my local machine I run the install and it completes with no errors. Unfortunately, I can't see any of the data in SQL Server Management Studio Express. I'm new to SQL Server Express so maybe its me, but I get the feeling that it was never added to the database. I'm still looking for SQLServerExpressSamplesOverview.htm to see if I am missing a step but I can't find it anywhere.
The install seems to have extracted database files but if I need to run some scripts by hand to create the database I don't know which order to run them in.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I am very new to SQL Server. I have downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express from microsoft's website and installed it on Windows Vista.

I think thess errors are mostly due to windows vista's new security features at the user level. However, I using my home computer and the admin privileges and in this case I shouldn't have any problem running it unless there's anything to be done on vista to work this.
I'll appreciate if anyone helps me installing the sample files.
Thanks in advance.
Regarding the code/db from the REAL project that just got released, I have no problem attaching the "REAL Sample V6" database, but the "REAL Warehouse Sample V6" database requires ENTERPRISE edition, because the default copy uses Partitioning (i.e. the PT version, although the document stated that the multi-table (MT) version is the default). I only have the STANDARD edition of SQL 2005, is there a workaround?
Appreciate any help.

View 5 Replies View RelatedThe sample application provided with Access Database Synchronizer fires a "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT." exception on my WinCE 4.2 device.
I debugged it with VS2005 to see what was going on and found that the problem resides in the line:
m_connDesktop.Pull("MSysObjects","SELECT Name FROM MSysObjects WHERE Type=1 and flags=0",accessSysConnectString,RDATrackOption.TrackingOff,"Err_MSysObjects");
It seems that connection m_connDesktop is ok but calling Pull method fails.
I've verified that SSEvAccessSync service is started when ActiveSync detects device connection and that firewall rules are correctly updated.
Also, i verified my System.mdw and i discovered that there is no "MSysObjects" table (only MSysGroupList, MSysGroupMembers, MSysUserList and MSysUserMemberships queries are there).
Do you think the problem is there?
How can i solve it without damaging System.mdw?
I cannot figure out what's the purpose of this line of code, can you help me?
Hi,
I'm working with the sample database called Adventure Works and I'm encountering data consistency issues :
If I sum the TotalDue for one particular territory, for one particular time window from the Sales. SalesOrderHeader table and if I try to compare the result to the LastYearSales and YTDSales from the Sales.SalesTerritory table, I don't get the same number, whatever I try. So did I miss something ?
How are the LastYearSales and YTDSales fields from Sales.SalesTerritory calculated ?
Thx,
Anissa

I downloaded the SR2 - major mistake Now I cannot get into the sample databases I have on my machine. I can attach to the Servers, but they have SR1 and now I guess if I would make changes from my SR2, then they will be screwed up.
My error when I try to log into my machine (adventure works) is:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

Hi all,
Can anyone give me a ready-made sample script to display a search reslut from a database?
My intention is to give a dynamic web page for the search in the BookStore website.
The result will show the following:-
First the picture of the book.
To the right of it, 'Title' field, below that, 'description' field
It should be created programatically as the contents are in the database.
I tried several ways, but could not succeed. I have the BookID, Title, BookPicture, and the Description fields
Thanking you in advance,
Tomy
Hi!
This concerns SQL errors showing up unexpectedly and a "Sample" application.
I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 on a Dell 8600 Laptop. It is the only computer I own (or want to own) therefore, home networking not an option. A simple, stand alone computer is all I need or want, yet sometime around September or October '05 whenever I booted up, I was getting SQL error messages (e.g., missing SQLsvc file). While trying to find the problem, I was seeing indications in various places that Windows NT was my OS (what happened to Windows XP as my OS?). I'm not sure how all that happened, I certainly did not intend to make any such change.
I'm not a computer techy, nor do I have such an aspiration. However, I'm quickly discovering that in order to use a computer in any capacity, one must indeed become somewhat of a techy - like it or not!
So, I got rid of the SQL error messages from popping up at bootup and things seemed to be a bit more normal, but now (for the past 2 or 3 months), everytime I shut down, I get the pop up window that indicates a program is not ending properly and I have the option to "end now" or "cancel" to return to windows. The name in the title box of this popup is simply "Sample" -- no extension such as .exe (although I assume that's what it should be). I have no clue what this is and have searched every possible source to find the answer but to no avail. I suspect it has something to do with that blasted SQL thing that seemed to take over my computer. I searched the web for "sample.exe" and found that it may be a virus
"Virus Alert: W32.Nimda.E@mm
The attachment received has been changed to: Sample.exe ... Emails itself out as Sample.exe Shared drives: Infects open network shares."
After reading the above link, I checked and, sure enough, I have this "W32nimda" file. A search as to how to eliminate it, led me to the Symantec website, which has a removal tool to download, along with 7 pages of instructions (did I mention that I did NOT want to be a computer techy?). I used Symantec antivirus 2 years ago and was glad to be rid of it, however getting completely rid of it seems to be another story and I truly wish I knew the secret to that (any hints?). I did not download this tool yet and not sure if I want to. Surely, there's an easier way! I have run my antivirus software (Trend Micro PC-Cillin), which finds nothing.
I seem to be getting away from the subject, although it all seems related, so I'll get back to the SQL question(s) which is, do I need it? If not, how can I get rid of it? Probably more information is required to answer this question such as how I use the computer, what applications, etc. Briefly, I do not create web pages and do not have a web page; no home network; do not play games or download music (afraid of that!); don't visit "taboo" websites. I do not have MS Word or any of the MS office line - Word Perfect 12 is my word processor. In November last year (at the same time all this started) my modem ceased to function, which I attributed to, unknowingly, plugging into a digital telephone jack at my office. I bought and installed another modem - which I could not get to work - took it back and bought wireless modem and router, which I installed and setup myself (with telephone assistance from router manufacturer, Linksys).
My web related usage is mainly research and email (a necessary evil, apparently). I also use the computer for photo storage and enhancement, graphics and Windows Media Player 9.
I apologize for this post being so lengthy, but I wanted to explain the problem with enough detail in the hope of getting a substantially beneficial answer (other attempts at other sites have been answered basically with "I dunno!" - and here's a surprise, I got the same "I dunno" from The Geek Squad at Best Buy!).
Thanks for taking the time to read all this - hope you can help!
Newbie in sql. Is the adventure works db sample compatible with the free sql compact edition, or is there a sample db for the compact edition? A link if possible could help.

Hello All,
I have two tables
SCDTest1
id stdt enddt price
1 01/04/2006 09/09/9999 900
2 01/04/2006 09/09/9999 200
and
SCDTest2
id stdt enddt price
1 01/04/2006 09/09/9999 100
I want to create a package that will:
check to see if id and stdt from SCDTest1 exists in SCDTest2,
if yes, I would like to expire that row in SCDTest2 (change the enddt to today) and then insert a new record into SCDTest2 with stdt = today and enddt = 09/09/9999.
If no then I want to insert the row with stdt = today, enddt = 09/09/9999.
SCDTest2 will look like this after the run is complete.
SCDTest2
id stdt enddt price
1 01/04/2006 01/10/2006 100
1 01/10/2006 09/09/9999 900
2 01/04/2006 09/09/9999 200
I have come close by using the SCD wizard, but have been unable to figure out how to get the proper date updates to occur.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have installed MS SQL Server 2014. When I try to attach the pubs database that I downloaded, I'm getting an error saying that its non-release version (539) is not supported by this version of SQL Server.
My question is: Is there a way that I can either get an updated version of the database from Microsoft, or update the one I have?
