Do I Need Multiple Versions Of Northwind?
Dec 13, 2006I am learning SQL Server 2005 Express, and want to use the Northwind data base as used in many code examples. I wanted to attach the Northwind data base via SQL Management Studio, but cannot find a Northwind.mdf file.
When I do a search using 'Northwind', I see there are already a couple of different versions of Northwind already loaded. One appears to be associated with SQL Server Mobile Edition (Samples folder) and another seems to be associated with Visual Studio 8SDKv2.0Quickstart.
Can I use one of these existing Northwind databases (none have .mdf extention) for SQL Server 2005 or do I need to download yet another version?
Multiple Sql Versions On The Same Machine?
Feb 25, 2008I have sql server 2000 developer, sql server 2005 (workgroup, standard and enterprise), express and compact 3.5
and i need to test 2000, 2005 express and a full version of 2005 and compact all on the same machine.
Has anyone done something like this and are there any issues with this?
i have seen some threads about 2000 and 2005 being fine as long as one is a default instance and one is a named instance. Would i be able to do the same with say express being the default instance and then 2000 and 2005 both having named instances? And is there a particular order i should install? I already have 2005 express as the default instance and compact installed already.
Thank you

Multiple DB Versions / Intermittent Connection
Apr 11, 2012I'm working on a DB that will be used in separate physical locations. These DBs will be identical in structure and completely independent of each other. Whilst some tables will retain similar or identical information, there is a large amount of content that will diverge.However, there is a central location that will need to manage these DBs. There will be a requirement from this central location to run reports, often comparing data between them, and to push data into each child location. There is no requirement for the child locations to 'share' information and indeed the volume concerned and the intermittent/low-bandwidth nature of their connections would make this undesirable. If an individual selection of data does need to be shared between I'm happy for it to be uploaded centrally, a decision made, and manually pushed to each child-location.
Which brings me to my real question. Should I try and include composite Primary Keys in many of the tables (to include probably an incrementing number and another field of site ID) so that when I absorb them all back centrally I can put them into one large DB. Or should I keep them as separate DBs in the central location and use some fairly 'normal' mechanisms for mirroring to sites; accepting that this will make running comparisons between them more difficult and potentially more difficult to write interactivity for centrally?
The best 'real world' comparison I can think of is transactions in retail shops. How do these transaction logs get stored centrally when they're all generating individual transaction numbers that are only unique in that location?
Using Multiple Versions Of SQL Server In A Replication Topology
Nov 24, 2006Hi there,
I have one publicacion on ms sql 2005 Enterprise w.sp1/MS Windows 2003 Enterprise w.sp2 and one subscriber on MS sql 2005 Enterprise w.sp1/MS Windows 2003 w.sp2, but I have also 3 subscriber on MS SQL 2000 w.sp3/MS Windows 2000 advanced server w.sp4. They replicate the same database with a publication compatible with 80RTM, All works fine with data replication, but I can't replicate DDL to MS sql 2005 suscriber, I don't care that don't replicate DDL, but I want manually alter triggers at MS sql 2005 suscriber, but I get this error at the subscriber on when I run the ALTER TRIGGER statement :
Msg 21531, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSmerge_altertrigger, Line 67
The DDL statement cannot be performed at the Subscriber or Republisher.
Msg 21530, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSmerge_ddldispatcher, Line 181
The DDL operation failed inside merge DDL replication manipulation.
Msg 3609, Level 16, State 2, Procedure TU_Centros_Distribucion_Articulos, Line 58
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.
Any help will be appreciated,
PD. I miss sql2000 replication, where I have full control over the database logic
OLEDB Interface To Multiple SQL Server Versions?
Mar 4, 2008Howdy Folks!
I just finished an OLEDB interface written in VS2005 C++ that works with Sql Server Compact Edition 3.1. My team now wants me to make my interface compatible with Sql Server 2000, 2005, and 2005 Express. My question is...what header/lib files do I need installed and in my stdafx.h to pull this off? Is there a particular order I need to include these files in?
Right now I'm just including the following for SSCE:
#include <ssceerr30.h>
#include <ssceoledb30.h>
Once I get the right includes figured out, the next step is figuring out what CLSID's I should use in the CoCreateInstance call. I *think* I'm supposed to use CLSID_SQLOLEDB for 2000, CLSID_SQLNCLI for 2005, and I haven't a clue for 2005 Express. I could use some clarification on this as well.
Thanks a ton in advance...I've always been impressed by the MSDN boards...
Multiple SQL Server Native Client Versions
Nov 24, 2006One of the big problems with the old MDAC was different versions on different client machines. You would test your app with the latest version say, but when you deployed it, it might fail as the client has a different version.
My company develops software for Municipal Government clients. These clients use other SQL Server applications as well as ours, but they can only use one version of the client software (MDAC) on a given desktop. That means if we require a particular MDAC version, but the clients other applications from other vendors don't officially support that MDAC version, the client is in a real jam.
Our software also supports Oracle, which allows our software to specify a particular Oracle Home which points to a directory with a particular version of the Oracle client dlls (along with corresponding registry entries for that Oracle Home), such that we control the exact client version of the Oracle software that the client uses with our applications. This will not interfere with, and is completely seperate, from the default Oracle home installed when you install the Oracle client software.
What I would like to see for the Native Client is the ability to have our applications use the version of the Native Client that we wish to support and deploy without interfering with the Native Client version used by other applications. Have a default Native Client, but allow applications to somehow specify a different Native Client version/set of DLLs.
Is there any such functionality with the Native Client? (I didn't see any mention of such in the documentation, but I thought I'd ask)
If not, are there any future plans to support multiple Native Client versions on the same desktop?
Multiple Versions Of SQL Server 2005 - What Order To Install?
Jun 15, 2007I currently have three SQL Server instances installed on my notebook. One is v8, which I believe is used by an accounting application. The other two are as follows:-
SQL Server MSSMLBIZ
SQL Server SQLEXPRESS
The second one (SQLEXPRESS) fails to start generating the following error:-
The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 17058 (0x42A2).
Other services listed in SQL Server Configuration Manager are:-
SQL Server Integration Services - which runs apparently normally.
SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)
SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER)
SQL Server Browser
The last thre of these are run under LocalSystem.
I have been trying to install the SQLServer SP2 to the SQLEXPRESS instance for some number of days now, but each time it runs, it fails to install.
I am beginning to wonder if there is a sequence of installation for each of the above instances that should be followed. Can anyone give me any suggestions, or answers to the above problems?
Thanks,
Help With Versions
Apr 24, 2001We are in need of a solution to our problem. We are working for a customer and cannot use their database to work on during development. We have copied the layout and made a sample db for our development.
Rather than writing down all the changes we make to our own db and then making the same changes to the customer's, is there a better way? Can we use something like sourcesafe?
Thankyou
SQL Versions
Oct 20, 2004I've got a few SQL Servers at work which are development servers using SQL Server Standard Edition. I would like to downgrade them to SQL Server Developer Edition to save the Standard Edition licenses for production purposes. However, i do not wish to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server Developer Edition, restore all the dbs. Is there a way to change the version of the SQL Server ?

Updating Need Two Different Versions
Dec 21, 2005Is there a way to do the following -- I need to be able to update a table based on a selection by a DDL. So here are my two update queries:
1. Update RequestData Set Approved = True Where DeptID = @DeptID2. Update RequestData Set Approved = True (Yes I need to be able to do all of the rows at once.)
But it's all based on the selection of the DDL---I really don't want to have to create two seperate sql commands any ideas?

Different Versions Of SQL On One Server
Sep 25, 2007Hi,
Our server has SQL Server 2003 installed, I'd like to use SQL Server Express 2005 as I'm about to try and learn ASP.NET and most tutorials use that.
Will installing Express 2005 conflict with the Server 2003? Can both version be run on one server?
Thanks.
Synchronized Versions
Jul 23, 2005I'm running a SQL 7 db on a LAN in city A with other users accessing it fromanother city (city B) over a WAN. Obviously the WAN users are getting muchslower access to the data. One thing I was wondering was if it was possibleto have two versions of the database, one on each server, and have themautomatically synchronize as users at each location make changes. Or, ifthat's not possible, then at least have the city B users get any changesthat the city A users get as they are made.Thanks for any input.Neil

.Net Versions Question
Mar 7, 2008We will be upgrading from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. From what I have read, as part of the installation of SQL 2005 we will be installing the .Net framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005.
We currently have production .Net applications which were developed in Visual Studio 2003 with the .Net framework 1.1.
We plan at some point to upgrade our applications to Visual Basic 2005, but we were planning on upgrading to SQL 2005 first.
I have a couple of questions about this.
1) We are a small shop and the same server which hosts our production applications also hosts SQL server for our model office and test applications. Can we have both versions of the common language runtime running on the same server?
2) Our .Net applications access the SQL data through stored procedures or views. I have run the Upgrade Advisor and it does not look as though there are any signficant upgrade issues with our SQL database objects, so we are tentatively planning on changing the compatibility levels of our databases to 90 after they are imported to SQL 2005. Assuming we take care of any SQL issues that we do have with our database objects, should we expect to encounter problems running our existing applications, under the older version of vb.net, and accessing our databases once we have upgraded to SQL 2005? (Of course we plan to test everything, but I just wanted to know if we should anticipate anything in particular.)
Thanks.

I have a DTS Package created with SQL2000 client tools, which contains a SQL connection and a sql task (exec sp_who2). When I run the package on my PC it works, when I run the package via SQL Agent it comes back with :-
DTSRun: Loading... Error: -2147287038 (80030002); Provider Error: 0 (0) Error string: The system cannot find the file specified. Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Help file: sqldts.hlp Help context: 713. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
I am not using any files. The DTS Package is called PMC_Test
Here is the dtsrun syntax from the SQL Agent job.
DTSRun /S "APP003" /N "PMC_Test" /E
When I try and open the DTS package using SQL7 client tools I get the same error message.

MS SQL Server Vs. Run Time Versions Of Other DBs
May 13, 2002I know this is a very basic question for all of you but I need help.
I am a CPA working with a client to select an accounting & project management software for a construction client. In the top 5 choices, there are 2 that require MS SQL Server as the DB. This client will have about 10-20 users, including project managers & accounting personnel but by DB standards transaction volumes will be low. The company has a few large projects. There is no inhouse IT staff; network administration is outsourced.
The question on the table is this? How much more difficult is it to use MS SQL server in this environment? If all of the client's requirements can be met using a run-time version of Sybase, Pervasive, or FoxPro, isn't this the simplest solution. I don't want to recommend an elephant if it is not needed. I would appreciate your opinion....Thanks

Replication Between Different Versions Of SQL Server
Jul 20, 2005Hello,We are trying to set up replication between different versions of SQLServer (7 & 2000).This is how the 2 servers are now setup:DB1 - External web-server w/SQL Server 7DB2 - Internal server w/SQL Server 2000REPLICATION SETUPThis is how we need the replication to be set up. They are allTransactional Replications.DISTRIBUTION:This is set up on DB2, which is running on 2000WITH PUBLISHERS ON DB1, AND PULL SUBSCRIPTIONS ON DB2:dbo.Employment_App & dbo.Employ_Jobs (together in one replication)dbo.FeedbackNOTE: This set of replications work some of the time, but make DB1 &DB2 very slow when running. A lot of times, the jobs say "RetryingJob", but they usually will eventually work.WITH PUBLISHERS AND PUSH SUBSCRIPTIONS ON DB2:dbo.Jobsdbo.Releasesdbo.SearchNOTE: This set of replications used to work when DB1 & DB2 both ran onSQL Server 7 with 2000 Enterprise Manager's. But since we moved thedata to an internal server (DB2) that runs on 2000, it doesn't work atall.We've researched the problem, and found an article by MS called"Replication Between Different Versions of SQL Server" athttp://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...plimpl_4joy.aspthat states that this setup should be possible (on Combination 3 forTransactional Replications).But it's not working at all. Are there some steps that we need tocheck to have replication setup between 2 servers running on differentversions of SQL Server (7 & 2000)? Any & all help & advice isappreciated. Thanks.KWilliams
