Folk:
My problem is this.
I have installed MSDE 1 (SQL 7 VERSION) in one Win95 Computer.
For some especial reasons y changed the computer name ,and the
MSSQLServer Service refuse startup.
Can you help me?
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
I had an issue that I ran across that I got solved but it was very monotonous. Here is my issue:
I have an SQL function that takes in 2 parameters (lookup category and lookup code) and with those parameters is goes out and find the lookup code description. I have this function in about 40 computed columns. It isn€™t the best way to do things but we need it for some legacy stuff. The problem occurs when I need to make a change to that function. I can€™t because it is being reference by all of the tables. So what I have to do is go in to each of the tables and remove the function from the column formula. Then change the function and then finally add that function back to the column.
Here is what I did.
I went to the syscolumn table to find all of the computer columns. I went to each of those columns and removed the formula and added it to a text document. Then I changed the function. I then wrote a stored procedure that would add the column back. ( I couldn't find a way to use the ALTER COLUMN to add the function so I had to drop and then add the column )
Here are the possible scenarios that I want to see if they are possible.
1) Somehow €œturn off€? the dependency between the function and the column. That way I can just update the function.
OR
2) Programmatically grab the data from the column formula and write that some place and clear out the formula. Then update the function. Then finally take all of the data that was cleared out and write it back to the column.
Does anyone know how to make this easier?
I have an online SQL Server database, and my web site registered clients can change the records of this database. My need: if a record of this database is changed, whole the changed record send to me and to the person who changed it immediately. I thought it could be possible through Transact-SQL,
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,I have a situation where I have to run a Delphi 1.0 application onWin95 via ODBC to MS-SQL 6.5 server. This is working for me onseveral workstations.I always install 16-bit BDE and make appropriate changes to odbc*.INIfiles, etc.I have a machine which has just now been setup for this situation -and at the same time converted to a wireless network card.Everything works great as far as network connection, running querys,etc. But when get to the point of saving a transaction - I am gettingthe message:"Error - EDBEngineError(General SQL error.

This isthe first part of a two part SQL transaction.What could be wrong?Thanks - Scott Murray.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHello,
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the
same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that
the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed
from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone
know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
regards,
Manfred
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
Is there a way to produce a query to look at when and who changed database objects last?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table as part of a replicated database where i need to change the allow nulls value (set it to not allow nulls) but when i try to save the table i get this error.
'CONTACTS' table
- Unable to modify table.
ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot drop the table 'dbo.CONTACTS' because it is being used for replication.
will i have to stop replication to make the change or is it worse and i have to delete the publication and start all over again?
I have an IDENTITY value in a table that was incorrectly created, and needs to be modified. Can this be accomplished?
Thanks.

Maybe somebody has asked this question, but I could not find it....
I used SSIS to transfer data from Oracle database to SQL Server 2005 (with Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle). It worked fine with the TNS alias name said oracle1. Then I changed the TNS alias name to oracle2. I could connect to Oracle database with oracle2 using Oracle's tool. But SSIS could not find (or solve) oracle2, if I changed the name back to oracle1 in SSIS, then SSIS worked.
Any idea?
Thanks!
Hello,
I have developed a report based on a stored procedure which will generate an excel file. There is a requirement that this file needs to be sent to an external domain with the name changed accordingly i.e., a date is to be suffixed to the file after the name has been changed based on their naming convention.
I would appreciate, if anybody has done so and can give me some steps for me to work out.
TIA

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a page that uses an SQLDataSource web control to populate a GridView control. The SQLDataSource control uses three parameters, one of which is a text string (varchar(50)). I get timeout expired exceptions when I run the page with two specific string values, yet when I run the stored procedure in SqlSvr Management Studio, the procedure runs in 5 seconds and under 1 seconds. Being rnew to ASP.NET 2.0 and .Net in general, I have no idea where this lag is occurring. I would like to know two things:
1. What is causing the lag that causes the timeout in ASP.NET 2.0.
2. What can be done to adjust the timeout period SQLSVR, IIS, ASP.NET).
The underlying query is running as desired (considering the data it has to chew on). For all other values, data is returned almost instantanious. I can provide a copy of the query id need be.
Truly appreciate any insight you can give me!
i changed my state table from char 20 to varchar 20 and it still fills it with empty space at the end of the statename
I tried entering it with the trim command still no good
i looked a the sql command made in vs and it says that the variables are varchar
is there something i am missing with varchar
does it only work properly if it is over 50 or does it not change completely when you change from char to varchar
Is there any way to reconfigure SQLSERVER if the name of the server was changed after the initial installation of Sql was completed?

Soon, we are going to redesign our servers and their positioning insofar as web access is concerned. The SQL Server will go to a DMZ.
Its IP Address (as well as hostname) is to be changed. Can you offer suggestions about what to be aware of on these two items?
I've been involved in a hostname change befoew (and, it's a pain), but never an IP Address.
Thanks, MichaelG

Why is this happning.Any great minds can help me in this pls

View 1 Replies View RelatedFirst of all, let me apoligize if this is a stupid question, but just a few days ago I decided to change my FE/BE database from Ms Access to SQL Server Express. Now I have a FE in ACC2002 and a BE in SQL SERVER (the two connected via ODBC). Anyway, this is my question:
When everything was in Access I had a form retreiving a series of records based on a filter - for understanding purpose let's say that a field must have been 'Not Null'. The operator then filled that field with data. With Access everything was static, and the operator could see all the records, the ones already changed and the ones not changed. With SQL now: everytime the operator fills in the field, the record changes to #Deleted. I assume that that is happening because the query - someway - is "alive" and is "filtering data alive"... or is updating records instantly. Just to make things more clear: is the record changed immediately so it is not considered part of the filtered data by the query, thus being change to #Deleted? What could I do to prevent this?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Hi,
I hava a table with the following information
CREATE TABLE TEMP1 (REFID INT, REVISION INT, FIELDNAM VARCHAR(10), VALUE VARCHAR(10));
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1001, 0, 'A', 'A2');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1001, 0, 'C', 'C2');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1001, 0, 'E', 'E2');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1002, 0, 'A', 'A3');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1002, 0, 'B', 'B2');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1002, 0, 'E', 'E3');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1001, 1, 'A', 'A4');
INSERT INTO TEMP1 VALUES(1001, 1, 'E', 'E4');
Here based on latest revision and refid I should get the fieldnam and value.
Expected output:
REFID FIELDNAM VALUE REVISION
1001 A A4 1
1001 E E4 1
1002 B B2 0
1001 C C2 0

I am trying to find the last changed date for a procedure. I have located the date created in the sysobjects table (crdate). Is this available?
View 8 Replies View RelatedOkay, 2 questions here.
First I want to query everyone with a date greater than today in the field EXPIRATION DATE. I know I can say > 2006-03-19 but I always want it to be TODAY.
Next, Is there a system field that I can search for the date a record was last updated?? I make frequent changes, and I want others to see what date a record was last updated. If not, can I tell the system to mark a field "YES" when I make changes?
I use phpmyadmin. I do not have server access, just through PHP.
Thanks!

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a stored procedure that inserts values into five columns of atable. I need another stored procedure that will allow the user to passone or more of those parameters and update only the column for the datathat was passed.
