MSDE And ODBC Tables
Jul 23, 2005
I have a MSDE database and I need to delete the contents of the exiting
tables and then import new data on a scheduled basis from an ODBC data
source (preferable through a system DSN). This was easy to do in SQL
2000 Enterprise given the DTS tools and then just scheduling a job thru
the agent.
Is there an example of how I could do this just using scripts and MSDE
(like a stored proc)? It looks like I have the agent still in MSDE to
use.
Help appreciated.
Thanks,
Frank

I need to write a VB.Net application in VS.net 2003 that copies several tables from an ODBC data source to MSDE tables. I do not have Enterprise Manager or DTS to use. Is there an example of this in VS? I was hoping VS has some built in tools for this. If not, bulk Insert?
Help appreciated.
thanks,
Frank

Hello,I'm not sure if it is right group for this question, but I hope thatI'll get help here...I'm using MSDE to store data for my application. And I'm having suchproblem. I'm creating a table in DB for string connection information:CREATE TABLE sql (action_id int NOT NULL default '0',database_name varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',username varchar(15) NOT NULL default '',password varchar(15) NOT NULL default '',PRIMARY KEY (action_id));Field 'database_name' stands for the DB name used by ODBC (In my Javaapplication I'm using ODBC, to connect to particular DB). So when I'madding a record to this table, for instance:1, "MySQL", "root", "password"ODBC || MSDE || JDBC changes the values by adding free space to fillall the field's spaces (Instead of "MySQL" it adds "MySQL"). It seems like some component doesn't understand that I'm usingvarchar(20), not char.For instance, when I'm using MySQL DB server, such problem doesn'tintroduce itself... Does anyone know how to manage this?Thank you,Audrius

I'm new to my company, although not new to SQL 2005 and I found something interesting. I don't have an ERD yet, and so I was asking a co-worker what table some data was in, they told me a table that is NOT in SQL Server 2005's list of tables, views or synonyms.
I thought that was strange, and so I searched over and over again and still I couldn't find it. Then I did a select statement the table that Access thinks exists and SQL Server does not show and to my shock, the select statement pulled in data!
So how did this happen? How can I find the object in SSMS folder listing of tables/views or whatever and what am I overlooking?
Thanks,
Keith

Hi! I'm trying to rename tables in a msde database, without succeeding. Simple question, I guess, but I can't find out how to do this. I know this doesn't work though:--- Dim connectionString As String = "server='(local)'; trusted_connection=true; database='GustafTest1'"Dim cn As System.Data.IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)Dim dbCommand As System.Data.IDbCommand = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
cn.Open()
Dim queryString As String = "RENAME TABLE table1 TO table2" '"ALTER TABLE [table1] RENAME TO [table2]"
dbCommand.CommandText = queryString dbCommand.Connection = cndbCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()---The reason to why I want to do this is that I'm updating the information of my system, and store the new data in a temporary table during update, in case something goes wrong. If the storing goes alright, the newly loaded the old table is renamed to backup_table and the temporary table is renamed from updating_table to active_table.That is a good solution, right?Thanx,Jon Engström, Sweden

Hi,
I have a application that uses a MSDE database to store information. The application seems to hit into a database corruption problem. Now I would like to view all the datas and tables created in the database. How can I do that using OSQL ?? What are the commands to view all the tables in this database ? Or is there any other better applications to do the viewing ??
Please advise. Thanx a lot !!

In order to use Access 97 as your frontend and SQL 7 as your backend on a
network (where the frontend is located on the same computer as the backend and
people just map to Access frontend) where security for the data is recognized
by your domain login account and what domain group you belong to..do you
have to have the same System DSN on everyone's computer for linking? I am
still having problems with people linking to the SQL server through the network and only my account is working correctly from my desktop. Everyone
else who tries to link gets an ODBC failure error message when trying to
open one of the linked tables. I have heard from one person that you must
have the same system DSN on every client's computer but to me that makes no
sense as I do not have the DSN listed on my individual computer...I am just
going through the network as myself..not as an admin..and getting directly
to the data. Everyone else can get to the shared folder on the server but
cannot get to the linked tables. Any ideas?

I have a SQL Server database that I connect a front end to using an ODBC connection. Our LAN folks upgraded the server recently and now I can no longer see any of the tables through the ODBC connection that the user used for login has permission in SQL Server Enterprise Manager to see - throught the ODBC connection the user can only see things like:
dbo.spt_datatype_info
dbo.spt_datatype_info_ext
dbo.spt_fallback_db
dbo.spt_fallback_dev
dbo.spt_fallback_usg
.
.
.
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CHECK_CONSTRAINTS
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMN_DOMAIN_USAGE
etc.
I've tried deleting the user for the connection and re-establishing it with owner permissions. I've tried deleting the dsn and re-establishing that as well but nothing so far.
Please help!!!

Hi,
I have an Access database Front End which use SQL server as a Back End. The two are connected using ODBC. Occasionally, some of the linked tables in Access go read only. I can't add or edit records. The only way I know to get round the problem is to delete the link and re-create it. Refreshing the link does not work. Can anybody suggest why this would happen, and the best way to fix it when it does occur?
Edited 12:10 06/14/07
Some extra info. At the same time it goes read only, the link loses it's primary key.
Thanks

Hi,
I want to import into an MDB table a csv file.
I'm trying to use the bulk copy table.
my function is:
SQL = "SELECT * INTO [my_table] FROM [ODBC;Driver=Micrsoft text driver (*.txt; *csv) ;Dbq=c:\;Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;].table.csv"
db.OpenEx( "Driver=Microsoft Access Driver .mdb);DBQ=c:\access.mdb;", CDatabase::noOdbcDialog );
db.ExecuteSQL( SQL );
when i run this function i get an error : "You cannot use ODBC to import from, export to, or link an external Microsoft Jet or ISAM database table to your database"
when i try to import in the same way a dbf file (insted the csv file) with VFP it's working well.
what seems to be the problem? how can i fix it? or if some one know how can i import a large csv file into access DB in an efficient diffrent way?

I created a login inside SQL 2000and gave db_read permission and SELECT permissions... and public.Role of public is EXEC store procs and view some systables...I linked those tables that I gave permissions through ODBC link intoaccess db with the user that I created inside SQL as readonly user...but to my surprise when I ran a insert query from access on SQLtables...

I'm trying to import data from an Oracle database into SQL Express. Basically I have a database that's local to my machine (C# front end with a SQL express back end) but I need to tie in some data from an Oracle database. The reason I'm trying to import it instead of just using a connection in C# to hit it is that I need to be able to access the tables while I'm offline so I need a local copy. I couldn't find any references on doing it through stored procedures or anything like that. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.

I have recently switched from ODBC to OLEDB and I have noticed a difference in the way these two handle local temp tables. With ODBC the scope of the local temp tables is the connection in which they were created (unless they are created in a stored proc, in which case the scope is the stored proc). That means you can create the temp table in one statement, fill it with data in another and retrieve the data in the third, and everything works fine as long as these statements are bound to the same connection. I have used this in a few places in my applications as a way to store connection specific data and a way to simplify some other things.
But now I have a problem. In OLEDB the scope of the temp tables is the session it was created in and that is not good for me since I can not store connection specific data in temp tables any more.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

Currently we have one customer database containing various tables. As part of requirements for a new client, we need to manage their data in a totally separate database. The tables and structure are exactly the same but we would be loading data into a separate database.
I am looking for a way to combine tables with the same name in each database when I run queries, rather than having to query each database separately. Currently we actually have many queries set up in MS Access which use an ODBC link to query the data off SQL server. I am aware it is possible to apply a UNION SELECT in Access from 2 separate ODBC connections, but this is extremely slow.So my initial question is - is there a way to provide access to the tables from both databases over the same ODBC link? If this cannot be done over ODBC I guess we can consider more "modern" methods, but ideally we want to keep this in MS Access as that is where our existing queries are based. I was hoping that some kind of view can be treated as an ODBC connection.I mentioned ideally we want to keep the reporting queries in MS Access.

Hi there,
I have a MS Access database (mdb) containing the following tables:
Crime
Criminal
CrimeCommitted
Hideout
CriminalType
The Criminal table contains information about each criminal and the CrimeCommitted table contains information about the specific crimes. I've written the following query to return only the latest crime committed by each criminal:
Code Snippet
SELECT Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType, Max(CrimeComitted.Date) AS Last_Crime_Comitted
FROM Criminal INNER JOIN CrimeComitted ON Criminal.CriminalID=CrimeComitted.CriminalID
GROUP BY Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType;
This query works fine for obtaining the Criminal table data, but once i've include CrimeCommitted.Country in the SELECT statement, the data returned contained all the crimes committed by each criminal (i just need the latest crime).
The query doesn't work when another table, other than Criminal, is selected. How can i obtain the columns in the CrimeCommitted table in this query?

I changed from Access97 to AccessXP and I have immense performanceproblems.Details:- Access XP MDB with Jet 4.0 ( no ADP-Project )- Linked Tables to SQL-Server 2000 over ODBCI used the SQL Profile to watch the T-SQL-Command which Access ( whocreates the commands?) creates and noticed:1) some Jet-SQL commands with JOINS and Where-Statements aretranslated very well, using sp_prepexe and sp_execute, including thesimilar SQL-Statement as in JET.2) other Jet-SQL commands with JOINS and Where-Statements aretranslated very bad, because the Join wasn´t sent as a join, Accesscollects the data of the individual tables seperately.Access sends much to much data over the network, it is a disaster!3) in Access97 the same command was interpreted wellCould it be possible the Access uses a wrong protocol-stack, perhapsJet to OLEDB, OLEDB to ODBC, ODBC to SQL-Server orJet to ODBC, ODBC to OLEDB and OLEDB to SQL-Server instead ofJet to ODBC and ODBC direct to SQL-ServerDoes anyone knows anything about:- Command-Interpreter of JetODBC, Parameters, how to influence thecommand-interpreter- Protocol-Stack of a Jet4.0 / ODBC / SQL-Server applicationThanks , Andreas

Hai,
I am using ADOX to create linked tables in a jet database from an ODBC datasource.
The tables in the ODBC data source does not have a primary key.
so I am only able to create read only linked tables.But I want to update the records also.
I tried adding a primary key column to the linked table while creating the link.
but I am getting an error while adding the table to the catalog.
The error message is "Invalid Argument".
I use the following code for creating the linked table
Sub CreateLinkedTable(ByVal strTargetDB As String, ByVal strProviderString As String, ByVal strSourceTbl As String, ByVal strLinkTblName As String)
Dim catDB As ADOX.Catalog
Dim tblLink As ADOX._Table
Dim ADOConnection As New ADODB.Connection
ADOConnection.Open("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=" & strTargetDB & ";User Id=admin;Password=;")
catDB = New ADOX.Catalog
catDB.ActiveConnection = ADOConnection
tblLink = New ADOX.Table
With tblLink
' Name the new Table and set its ParentCatalog property
' to the open Catalog to allow access to the Properties
' collection.
.Name = strLinkTblName
.ParentCatalog = catDB
' Set the properties to create the link.
Dim adoxPro As ADOX.Property
adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Create Link")
adoxPro.Value = True
adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Link Provider String")
adoxPro.Value = strProviderString
adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Remote Table Name")
adoxPro.Value = strSourceTbl
End With
'Adding primary key,
'***** the source column name is "Code" ******
tblLink.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "Code")
'Append the table to the Tables collection.
'******The exception occurs on the following line***********
catDB.Tables.Append(tblLink)
'Append the primary index to table.
catDB = Nothing
End Sub
If I avoid the line for adding the primary key,everything works fine,but the table ctreated is readonly.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
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.

When trying to link to an SQL table in Access 2003, the software appears to be malfunctioning.
The sequence of events is File - Get External Data - Link Tables - Files of Type: ODBC Databases().
The Problem: On two of my computers, the select data source window does not pop up, preventing me from linking to any ODBC data source.
Observations: This function has worked normally in the recent past and works on other computers running Access 2003. One difference between the computers working and non-working computers is Norton Antivirus 2006 (recent upgrade).
Has anyone experienced anything like this? What's going on?

Hi,
I am using VB.NET 2005 and set up an ODBC connection via ODBC.ODBCConnection to a MDB database. Therefor, I use the "Microsoft Access ODBC Driver (*.mdb)".
When I set up a ODBCCommand like "ALTER DATABASE..." or "CREATE TABLE..." and issue it with the com.ExecuteNonQuery() command, I get an error from ODBC driver, that a SQL statement has to begin with SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE.
How can I use DDL statements via ODBC?
I would appreciate if you could help me to use ODBC for that - no OLE, no ADO.
Thanks for help!

I apologize if this is not the correct forum for this posting. Looking at the descriptions, it appeared to be the best choice.
I am running Windows XP Pro SP2. I have installed the SQL Native Client for
XP. However, when I try to add a new data source through ODBC Connection
Manager, SQL Native Client is not listed as an option. I have followed this procedure on three other systems with no problems. What would be causing the
SQL Native Client to not show up in the list of available ODBC data sources?

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

know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??

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?

Hi all,I am having trouble getting linked Oracle 9 server in MS SQL Server2005 Express to work properly. My machine is running Windows XP.The Microsoft and Oracle OLE DB Providers have problems dealing withOracle's Numeric Data Type, so I decided to use Microsoft's OLE DB forODBC Provider and an Oracle ODBC source. When using the Microsoft ODBCfor Oracle Driver in my ODBC source I have inconsistent behavior.Sometimes my queries are processed properly, then other times I get thefollowing errorOLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttrfailed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttrfailed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"for linked server "ODBCBEAST".I have no idea why sometimes I can connect to the linked server with noproblems andwhy other times it performs like this. I'm not changing anything aboutthe system I can think of. When I use an Oracle client (PL/SQL) I haveabsolutely no problems connecting. TNSPING returns that the connectionis good.This is unacceptable so I decided to try my luck with the Oracle 10gODBC driver. However when I use this and perform an openquery selectagainst the linked server I get back only 11 rows, when I know that thedatabase has over 100 rows (in fact when using the Microsoft ODBCdriver and it works that's what I get). I figured maybe the buffersetting needed to be raised in the ODBC configuration so I took it from64000 to 600000 (a magnitude of 10) but I still get back only 11 rows.I'm at my wit's end.Any suggestions on resolving one or the other problem would be muchappreciated.Thanks much
