Hello All,
Soon I shall have to migrate 2 medium sized databases from SQL server 7 to 2005.
Any words of wisdom, “how to�, “do and don’t� would be greatly appreciated.
Here are the details:
SQL 7.0 SP4, on Win2000
SQL 2005SP1,on Win2003
Sql 2005 needs to be installed on a new server (Win 2003), which will also be used as a web server (IIS6). I was thinking to go with a clean install for sql 2005 first, and after that to migrate the databases.
Thank you in advance,
Emily
Hi all,
I have script written in SQL Server 2000.
When i tried to migrate to SQL Server 2005, it is working fine in the SQL Server 2005 installed in Windows 2003 Server. System tables(syscolumns, sysobjects etc)are created in "Database->Tables->SystemTable".
But when i tried to run in SQL Server 2005 installed in Windows XP, I'm facing the following problems.
1."The object 'CK_SavedSear_LastL_4B422AD5' is dependent on column'LastLoadedTime'
"ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN LastLoadedTime failed because one or more objects access this column"
2.Moreover none of the tables had been created in "Database->Tables->SystemTable".
In both XP and 2003 Server, While installing, i have choosen same options.
Please anybody could help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks and Regards,

I'm migrating 15 user databases from one server to another. The current production server is Windows 2000 Server SP4 and SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP4. The new production server is Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition SP4. The new server does not have the same directory structure as the current server.
I plan to detach the database, move the .mdb and .ldb files to the new server and then attach the database again. I'm not sure what to do with the master and msdb databases. Do I need to bring over the master? I know I need the msdb for all the job information. Since these are system databases, do I need to follow a different process? I want to get all these databases over to the new server so I can begin some parallel testing prior to the final cutover.
For anyone that has gone through this process, is there anything that I need to pay special attention to? Any issues moving from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003 or SQL Server 2000 Standard to SQL Server Enterprise Edition?
Any assistance would be GREAT!!!

Scenario
Recently moved a SQL2000 database to SQL2005.
Collation on SQL 2000 database server was SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
Colaltion on SQL 2005 database server is Latin1_General_CI_AS
After restoring the SQL 2000 database on SQL 2005 we observed that the database collation was SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. We have altered the database collation to Latin1_General_CI_AS. We understand this will work for all new objects created on the database but existing objects (prior to the collation change) will continue to have the 'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS' collation.
What is the best method to change the collation of the older columns to 'Latin1_General_CI_AS' -
1) Run ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN <colname> <datatype> COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS <nullability>
on each varchar/char column
or
2) For each table
BCP out data
DROP TABLE
RECREATE TABLE (taking the new collation Latin1_General_CI_AS)
BCP in data
3) Other methods?
Thanks in advance

Hi all
I hope you can help me in some way.
Basically for the last 5 months i've developed a SQL 2k db for my company.
All of a sudden they quite fancy using Linux on the server, therefore i would be required to use PostgreSQL instead of SQL Server 2k.
I could do with some advice about how PostgreSQL and SQL Server compare? and how much work would be involved in migrating from one to the other.
Points i've found myself and may be an issue are:
I've used some of SQL Servers XML capabilites and as far as i can tell PostgreSQL doesn't support XML.
I've made extensive use of functions that return table variables etc... is there a similar idea i can use in PostgreSQL?
Extensive use of Stored Procedures and T-SQL etc...
DTS packages. Any equivalent or similar idea?
(ps i've also posted this in the PostgreSQL but since no one replyed i was hoping the sql server boffs could help).
Hi All,
Would like to know if there is any impact on application if migrated to sql server 2005?

Hello,We maintain a VB6 front-end application using an Access 2000 database. Allcode and forms are in VB6. The program also uses several queries/reportsdefined in Access. For corporate reasons we must move to SQL Server rightaway. Based on our configuration, we're hoping someone can give us a feelfor what's involved here. Since we're only using Access for the data we'renot sure what an "upsizing" would entail. Can someone point us in the rightdirection, tell us the main gotchas, etc. Thanks a lot.Teri Welch

We are currently on SQL Server 2000. We have another server that has SQL SERVER 2005. The exisiting SQL SERVER 2005, is a production server, used for Reports in SSRS 2005 In the next 2 mths, we need to migrate our dbs to SQL Server 2005. First off, I would like to TEST and ensure all the dbs/pkgs etc run fine in 2005 before I go live .
I need to know how do I get started with TESTING this, i.e. how do I move the dbs from existing 2000 server to sql server 2005?
I€™m currently evaluating SQL Server 2005 to what advantages there would be to upgrading from SQL Server 2000. Our existing systems make much use of DTS so it critical for us to be able to run SQL Server 2000 DTS packages in SQL Server 2005. Having installed the Enterprise SQL Server 2005 CTP successfully on a new Windows 2003 server and following the advice to install Legacy Components I find the Migration Wizard (under Legacy> Data Transformation Services) fails with the following error after entering source and target dialogs: This wizard will close because it encountered the following error: Additional Information: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index (mscorlib) Also when trying to open a structured storage DTS file I incur another error: Unable to load DTS 2000 Runtime. This component may have not been installed (Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsObjectExplorerUI) This error seems to imply that the DTS 2000 Runtime needs installing. Can this component be downloaded and installed separately?

We recentely tried migrating our databases from 2000 to sql server
2005.The migrated databases had some issues like collation issues,so
we created the scripts for each databases and then updated these
scripts to remove collation issues to make these compatible to SQL
server 2005.
But we have some permission issues for the users in case of these
created databases i.e. we are unable to see all the tables with
ssupdate user id ,or any other id .except the dbo id
which is the owner of this database,where we can see all the tables
and stored procedures.
iam fairly new at sql server .does anyone have any suggestions or
critcisms ?
you are welcome.
I am in the process of migrating 40 access databases to SQL Server. I am migrating the tables to the backend. All of these databases are Identical in structure and purpose. The goal is to centralize all of the databases backends into one Sql server database, but the data needs to stay seperated by each location. So I added a location field to each table in the database; so that each locations data will be seperated by location. How do I go about filtering out the the data so that each location can only update, delete, an view their own data? (I dont mind a long answer.)

Hello,
I have a client that is moving their web ap (which has already been developed) from one host to their own servers. The problem is that they don't have MS SQL Server 2000, but they have MSDE. All the code is already writen to work with SQL SERVER 2000.
I have a couple of questions:
1. Can I safely assume that all this code will work with MSDE and all I have to change is the connection string? For example:
SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection(connstring);
In other words, can I still use the SqlClient classes to work with MSDE, or will I have to modify the code?
2. Will it be a problem creating the tables and migrating the data from SQL SERVER to MSDE? Can I use Enterprise Manager to do this?
3. I never had to remotely (or even locally) connect to a MSDE database alone, I always develop with a SQL Server db. Can I use a similar connection string for the MSDE database? Do I have to create a data provider on the local machine? Can you give me an example of a MSDE connection string?
I inherited a flat file system of 100 "tables" with no PK/FK constraints, nor relationships in the RDBMS. The "constraints" are in the application (Bad Stuff I know). It's pretty obvious that they haven't worked.
The files are like this:
File A File B
Last_Name Task
First_Name Date_of_Task
When I run a query I get the following results:
Last Name First Name Task Date
Same Last Name Same First Name Different Task Date
Same Last Name Same First Name Different Task Date, etc.
I want to get rid of the redundant names. I have created a new database with the PK/FK restraints in place. However, I'm not sure how to migrate the old data into the new database. I want to make the Task column a date rather than a task itself. The task will be labeled in the column heading.
I'd like the outcome from a query to be:
lastname First Name Task 1 Task 2 Task3,....
I'm new to SQL and it seems like I need to run some sort of Sub Query, but I haven't been able to hit on the correct command/syntax. Thanks for your help.
