We are beginning our research to migrate from our current SQL 6.5 and are wondering if we should migrate to SQL2000 rather than to SQL 7. First of all, is this possible or will we need to migrate to SQL 7 before migrating to SQL2000? Also where can I find good resources to learn more about the changes in SQL 7 as well as those in SQL 2000?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi, guys - looking for a bit of help/advice on moving a database fromSQL 7 to SQL 2000.We've a third party application which currently uses a SQL7 database.This database has a number of views which are owned by userINFORMATION_SCHEMA and are set as system tables. This user doesn'tactually have a login on the SQL server.We've tried the following to recreate the database on SQL2000, butwhatever we try, the views owned by INFORMATION_SCHEMA won't copy overfrom SQL7:(1) We tried the "Copy Database" wizard in SQL2000, but were gettingerrors when trying to actually copy the database (other steps workedfine).(2) We tried a restore to SQL2000 from our Legato Networker backup ofthe SQL7 database, but the views didn't come across.(3) We tried a backup from SQL7 and restore to SQL2000, but got themessage that the backup file contained a database other than the onewe wanted (it didn't - we checked the backup file several times byrestoring it to another SQL7 server).(4) We tried to import/export data from SQL7 to SQL2000, but the viewsowned by INFORMATION_SCHEMA weren't showing to add to the list ofobjects to take across.(5) We created the INFORMATION_SCHEMA login on SQL2000, and tried allrestores again, but still the views wouldn't go across.(6) We generated the SQL for all views in SQL7 and ran these onSQL2000, setting the owner to INFORMATION_SCHEMA, but wasn't surewhere to set the type to "system" (as opposed to "user).We're having problems running the third party application with aconnection to SQL2000, and want to rule out the lack of views, or viewownership, as the problem. Our third party vendor isn't coming upwith any solution in a hurry. Can anyone think of any reason why theviews are coming across when the database is restored to SQL2000?Thanks for your help.

We are having some problems over here after our SQL2005 upgrade.
If we try to use an excel file that previously accessed the SQL2000 database (same DSN name and credentials), and then try to refresh the data after the 2005 upgrade, we get the errormessage "[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]User 'DOMAINusername' does not have permission to run DBCC TRACEON."
We have tried to delete and recreate the DSN file.. Tried to use SA user instead (with offcourse full access)..
An even bigger problem is that we can not even get into msquery to copy the SQL query to make a new file, the same problem appears.
Please note that if we try to make a new external database query it works fine!
Any suggestions?

Hi There,
Greetings! Many of my clients are on SQL 7.0 (Win NT) and want to upgrade to SQL2K (Win 2003). We have approximately 1200 Stored Procedures (SPs) per module.
Our porting exercise involves changing keywords of SQL 7 to SQL2K (eg. LTRIM, RTRIM, GROUP BY etc).
Is there a tool available online which can run thru the SPs and do the porting job? Otherwise I have to hand-code these changes
Also, has any one out there done this exercise before? What are the things to lookout for to avoid goofups?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In DTS 2000 package dynamic property task an ini file is read and values for some keys are read. These values are nothing but name of servers on which to run some sql tasks. This dts package has three defined connections. So when the keys are read it will be either one of these three.
For eg. there are three sql tasks. sql1, sql 2 and sql3. sql1 needs to be run against server s1, sql2 against s3 and sql3 aginst s2. So the ini file sets three different variables connection1 to s1,connection2 to s3 and connection3 to s2. These variables are then used to run sql tasks accordingly.
When I migrated this dts package to .dtsx format and edited using SSIS, it gave me a blank format of vb script which we need to code. please help me out in this issue ?
Thanks,
Nit
I try to migrate DTS package to SSIS.
Within one DTS package AAA, it calls another DTS package BBB with inner variable.
I successfully migrate the BBB DTS package.
For my AAA package, I replace the DTS_Execute_Task_2000 with Execute Package task. But how do we pass the inner variable parameter ?
Soon, i will be asked to carry enterprise databases on an Sql Server 2005 Server x86 edition to Sql Server Server 64-bit editon on another server. I am wondering that is it just fine to detach/attach databases. Is there any trouble that i may face?
Any experience?

Hi,I have made a web application using SQL Server 2005
Express with a few admin pages that require login. I used the SQL
Server Managment Studio Express to setup users and groups and it works
fine. But the web server has SQL Server 2000 and all I get is a
user id and password to access the database. It seems I cannot use the
Login control I put on my "login.aspx" page becuase it uses the
integrated authentication which chokes on 2000. I am afraid I wonlt be
able to use some of the 2.0 features such as profiles, ... Is
this the way 2.0 works with SQL Server 2000? Should I ditch the ISP if
they only give me a single access to database with no provisions to
create users. (I was told I had to create a "Users" table and manually
assign ids and passwords and that I can only use the user id and
password they supplied to setup the connection string in the script.)I appreciate your help.
Does anyone know when SP1 will be available for SQL2000??
Thanks,
Steve Bajada
