MCSE SQL Server 2000 Design 70-229 Exam
Mar 17, 2008
Hi,
I am studying for the above exam and have got a new laptop with the basic version of Vista pre-installed on it. I've got an evaluation version of SQL Server 2000 I got from a Microsoft event but the basic version of Vista I have, will not let me install it.
Can anyone advise me whether SQL Server Express will be useful in studying for the SQL Server 2000 Design 70-229 Exam?
If not, I see my options as fork out for an older OS licence - XP pro to put on the laptop which would allow me to install the evaluation edition. Not my first choice but it would do...
Thank you,
Mark Smith

I am going to sit for a database design exam. I am going through the practice questions and which are befuddling me. Can anyone give me pointers to the parts I am not clear with below?
The Problem
You are working for a legal firm that has an old antiquated Case Management System. The law firm’s documentation involves litigation material, recording findings, and general correspondence.
The final decisions are produced in Microsoft Word and are considered to be legal documents in the state of Virginia. At the moment there is no link to any party administration information stored in the Case Management system, so all addressing is re-keyed. The overall process is very paper intensive.
Question 1: Using, as your reference, the basic steps in Classic Systems Analysis, define the business problem described above.
Question 2: How might the overall problem be tackled?
Question 3: Complete an ERD with MS Visio to provide for a solution that will fit the requirements for the legal firm. Please note that the instructor will be running the MS Visio on SQL Server 2000 SP3 and Windows 2000.
The Question: I have problems with Question 1. What does “Classic System Analysis” mean here? Does this mean project management using the Waterfall method?
The ERD I can do. The non-tech stuff is the ambiguous part.
Thanks for any help. This conundrum has kept me up almost all night.
Bertina :)

Hi
I have a database that stores all the data in one table that is only the data we are required to store hence it didnt require any other tables
the table has five colunms
Orderid, ordercost, orderdate, ordersystem, orderref
it is used in an web application that seraches for all the rest of the information using an orderid and displays the rest of the details the size of the table currently is about 123000 records that is increasing by 20000 every week.
i have an archive of the same data that has 7,666,000 records that are also going to be placed into the same database.
my question is is that a good idea of doing this?
are there any performance issues that i need to be aware of as currently the application runs quite quick?

Hello gurus:Hopefully someone can shed some light on some questions I have. I amtasked to build an application that will schedule and track tasks. Ifirmly believe in not reinventing the wheel however also feel thatcustomizing is certainly not out of the question.I am looking to build something in ASP (or .NET) that can allow anindividual to work "disconnected" from the network while stillaccessing a database (MSDE?) that will sync with SQL 2000 oncere-connected. I have built multiple db apps that are strictly webbased and consider myself somewhat knowledgeable (read.. dangereous)SQL/ASP dude. I understand that for a stand-alone client app I mayhave to use .NET and load the framewsork on the client in order to runthe dynamic pages for database updates. Here are my questions:1) Is there a way for SQL server to "replicate" its tables into aschema/data recognized by MSDE (i.e. generate the "mother ship" tablesand schema first, then use SQL Server to automatically create (export)the client MSDE tables)2) are there tools to manage MSDE so one can see what the heck is inthere? I understand Enterprise manager will not work in this regard.3) Are there any resources (documents, tutorials etc..) for datareplication (i.e. dbsync from MSDE up to MSSQL and vice-versa)4) Am I wasting my time doing this from scratch because there isalready something out there that does all this that is moderatelypriced and customizable?Thanks for your attention and consideration.Eric B

I'm trying to do a simple alteration to the table design of one of ourSQL 2k tables, simply changing an identity row so that its not 'notfor replication', and its taking absolutely ages to do so, and stopsthe sql server from working.Whilst it's attempting the update, no one can access the database, thesqlservr.exe memory usage shoots up and enterprise manager reports anot responding status. Eventually after about 10 minutes, it bombs outreporting,Unable to modify tableCould not allocate space for object 'Tmp_TableName' in database'DBNAME' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full.The table i'm attempting to change has only about 4000 records sothere's not a huge amount of data.Any ideas what's causing this and how i can get around it?A similar thing happens when i attempt to change the length of avarchar too.Thanks in advance for any suggestionsDan Williams.

1.You use new database dialog to create DB, but there's not available
Device, what is your quickest way to create a new device.
2.-Data and log are on same device, you issue:
DUMP database mydb to dump1
DUMP transaction mydb with truncate_only
What happened to trans log?
3 -Setting up Windows client to access your server, you enter the IP address
of the PDC, would this work?

Hello,
My employer has recently offered to pay for my certification exam (70-229) so I am about to start preparing/revising. Having visited numerous sites to get an idea of what is needed, I am now overwhelmed with info.
Has anyone out there successfully completed the exam and if so can you recommend any sites/resources that you found useful (or any to avoid).
Regards
Simon

Cannot see the Colums in the "design view" of Queries. All i see when i want to design a new query is *columns
This happens in only one database, in other databases using same server i can see the colums and can tick them to view then in the query.
In enterprise manager i see all the columns.
Using SQL 2000 and MSAccess 2000

Hi
I am interested in taking MCTS exam 70-431 for sql server 2005 implementation and maintainance.
I have been reading the hardware requirements for the instalation of sql server versions and realise that enterprise and developer editions have same minimum requirements for the operation system.
I understand that the Developer Edition includes all the functionality of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but it is licensed for use as a development and test system, not as a production server.
Also I undestand that the developer edition supports the Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 or later but the enterprise edition does not support this operating system. The evaluation/trial version is for the enterprise edition. Can I use the developer version of sql server 2005 for my practice exercises instead of using the trial version?
I have all hardware requirements for the trial enterprise version except that I am using Microsoft windows Xp home edition version 2002 with SP2. I am trying to see if I can use the developer version of sql server 2005 as it is cheaper for me to buy this software than buying the new operating system for my computer.
According to the microsoft book for the MCTS exam 70-431 there is a section which states that before you begin you should have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 running on your computer on an NTFS file system
(NTFS) partition. Will I still be ok to use the book and be able to do all the tests in the book if i am using the developer version of sql server 2005 with my Microsoft windows Xp home edition than using the trial version which comes with the book?
Thanks

Hello, Im new so please be gentle. I'm just in the midst of studying for the SQL2K admin exam, and was going to to the Design exam straight afterwards. Ive heard that a person is much better off learing T-SQL before doing the design exam, is this the case? I will learn T-SQL anyway, but I'm wondering if learning before the design exam will make life easier for me?
Thanks for reading.

there are 3 columns on which you wanna create the composite index, A,B and C, A is almost identical, B is almost 50% identical and C is only 10% identical, i had the implementing database on sql server 7.0 exam this morning. there's a question that confuse me too much, it's fellowed
there are 3 columns on which you wanna create the composite index, A,B and C, A is almost identical, B is almost 50% identical and C is only 10% identical, then they asked which index enable the fastest query?
the choices:
A.clustered (A,B,C)
B.nonclustered (A,B,C)
C.clustered (C,B,A)
D.nonclustered (C,B,A)
i think the sequence must be C,B,A, but how about the clustered or nonclustered? i guess it's will be nonclustered.
ok, it's there.
could you help me? i wanna know when should be clustered besides the primary key and when should be the nonclustered.thanx!

Hi
Here is a mcdba admin question
Consider the following time line:
8:00 You accomplish the full database backup.
8:10 User1 enters the order 53 for customer 10, whose name in the database is
XXXXX (I
can't remember, but not Bill Smith)
8:12 User2 at remote server changes the name XXXXX to YYYYY
8:13 User3 changes the name YYYYY to ZZZZZ
8:14 User3 commit the transaction.
8:20 Media fails for database.
8:30 You restore the database from 8:00 backup. What is the status of the order
53 in the
database?
a) The order 53 is not in the database.
b) The order 53 is in the database and name is XXXXX.
c) The order 53 is in the database and name is YYYYY.
d) The order 53 is in the database and name is ZZZZZ.
Ans: B The name was already there.
The answer is B but I think th answer is A
becouse He or Her restroe the database from 8:00
I think the 53 order maked after 8:00 so
there is not order 53 in the backup database
How about you think and why !!!
Thanks kjs

Hi
I'm not sure if this is the right forum to be posting this query as I am a newbie, but here goes. I will be taking the sql server 2005 exam in december and was wondering whether anybody could recommend any good books. The prepertion guide on the ms site has an overload of information which I am just getting lost in! I will also be purchasing these free e-courses on the ms site and wanted to know once I have purchased them how long will I have access to the courses. Also can I access them on the net from any machine.
I have just recently passed exam 70-315 and found that the exam questions were very similar to the TestKing questions which I made use of prior to the exam. So I will definetley be buying TK Q's for this exam also.
Many Thanks
