I have used this mysql code in my programm before:
select * from address order by vorname asc limit 0, 10
It works fine. But now I want to use sql server, and it doesn't recognize the term limit. So I have found out that I can use top instead. I have changed my code into this:
select top 0 * from (select top 10* from address order by vorname) order by vorname asc
hey all, i want to know Equivalent of "LIMIT" of MySQL in SQL Server 2005? in mysql we can direclty get data using LIMIT clause. my question is how to do this in sql server 2005? thanks.
I am looking for a function in MSSQL that performs similar to the LIMIT function in MySQL. Here is the LIMIT function's definition:
The LIMIT clause can be used to constrain the number of rows returned by the SELECT statement. LIMIT takes one or two numeric arguments, which must be integer constants.
With two arguments, the first argument specifies the offset of the first row to return, and the second specifies the maximum number of rows to return. The offset of the initial row is 0 (not 1):
Has anyone successfully used cherry's oledb provider for MYSQL to create a linked server from MS SQLserver 2005 to a Linux red hat platform running MYSQL.
I can not get it to work.
I've created a UDL which tests fine. it looks like this
[oledb]
; Everything after this line is an OLE DB initstring
I am trying to transfer data from a table in a SQL server database to an equivilent table in a MYSql database that resides on a different server.
I have previously used a php script to do the job but it proved very slow. I am dealing with a table that is growing and has 9.5 million records in this case and the proceedure may need to be carried out a number of times preday so I am hoping to find a better solution.
I am wondering anyone can point me in the direction of an alternative method.

Hi everybody, I'm just writing a stored procedure in my MS SQL 2005 server. I wanted to ask if there is any possibility to execute a select statement to a MySql database on another server? Does anybody have an idea? Best regards, ALEX
Hi there, I have a database table with a field to specify the username of records that particular user is allowed to access (read only). I want to be certain the user does not have access to any other records. So I'm using a stored procedure to query the table with "WHERE dbuser = USER". My problem is that the stored procedure is returning an error that the table I'm querying cannot be found, and I suspect it is because the user does not have proper permissions to see those tables, even through the stored procedure. So my question is, how do I grant the user sufficient access for this stored procedure to work without outright granting them select permission on the tables? Much appreciated!
I get 100 rows of result, i want to write a sql query similar to the one available in MySql database where in i can specify the starting row and number of rows of records i want,
something like,
select * from emp LIMIT 10,20
I want all the records from the 10th row to the 20th row.
This would be helpful for me to do paging in the front end , where is i can navigate to the next previous buttons and fetch the corresponding records.
I want to do something like in google, previous next screens.
So I am trying to limit the number of rows fetched from a query.
somethin like,
select * from emp where startRowNum=10 and NoOfRecords = 20
I am a newbie to SQL Server. I have a problem, in filtering the records returned by a query. I have a table which contains 1 million records, it has a user defined primary key which is of character type. The problem is i need to filter the output of a select query on the table based on two parameters i send to that query. The first parameter will be the starting row number and the second one is the ending row number. I need a procedure to do this.
For Eg: MyProc_GetRowsFromBigTable(startRowNo,endRowNo) should get me only the rows in the specified range.
I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
I'm storing time series data in a table in SQL server 2000. The tablehas columns like: CodeEquity, PriceDate, LastPrice. To extract thelast price for a number of equities on COMMON DATES I have used thequery:select t.LastPrice,h1.LastPrice,h2.LastPrice,h3.LastPrice fromBlg_HistoricData t,Blg_HistoricData h1,Blg_HistoricDatah2,Blg_HistoricData h3where t.CodeEquity=114151 and h1.CodeEquity=112220 andt.PriceDate=h1.PriceDate and h2.CodeEquity=112580 andt.PriceDate=h2.PriceDate and h3.CodeEquity=112228 andt.PriceDate=h3.PriceDatethis works for about 20 self joined tables and then says syntax error.I'm wondering what sql limits it hits. Is it possible to do this inSQL for 300 tables?Thank you.

I just started developing my site locally using SQL Server and am planning to move it to our work's MySQL server. Is there anything that I should be aware of before I continue any furthur? Will I lose any data or is it even an option to move from SQL Server to My SQL???
I am working for a client who needs to move database from MySQL application to MS SQL SERVER 7.0. Is there anybody who has done it before? I need some help about how to load data from one system to another system.
Hi there, I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
At my old job, I developed web applications that were based off of a MySQL server. I used PHPMyAdmin and learned the PHP coding, and although not formally trained in DBA or anything, I became very comfortable with using it and building database applications. I did everything through SQL/PHP script coding or through PHPMyAdmin.
At my new job, I decided to build a database, but only had access to MS Access, which I can use, but don’t necessarily like. One day, in earshot of one of our admins, I grumbled “if I only had access to a SQL server, I’d turn this thing into a very cool web application.� Well, he heard, and gave me access to the SQL server and the web server. Thing is, it’s not MySQL, but MS SQL Server. And I feel like I am at a total loss. I was able to build a basic database in the Enterprise Manager on the SQL server, and create a web site on the web server, but I don’t even know how to begin to connect the two – what is the equivalent of MySQLConnect? I know I would have to learn the VBScript and everything for the advanced stuff, but for right now, I just want to make a simple web page that will do a simple select query from a database and return the rows, and simple forms to input into the database. How do I begin? What do I need to know to begin? I have a feeling the applications already on the server were contracted out, so I don’t actually know if anyone here could help me.
I need to pull data out of SQL Server 2005 and load it into a MySql 5 database, and can't find a way to do this efficiently in SSIS since there's no ODBC destination, and I couldn't find an Oledb driver for MySQL. Any thoughts on the best way to accomplish this, aside from exporting to text, and then loading it into MySql via the mysql client or mysql importer?
Hey there,I'm curious about MySQL. Could anyone quickly summarize thedifferences between MySQL and SQL Server and outline why someone mightpick SQL Server over MySQL?(Please post replies here, email address is fake)Cheers,Geoff GlaveVancouver, Canada
I was wondering what more experienced DBAs have observed with regard to the capacity of a MSSQL DB. Is there an upper threshold of rows where performance becomes unacceptable? I have a fairly slow, but constant input rate of approximately 2,000 rows every 60 seconds or so (that is a little high, but I'm interested in worse case scenario here). That is up 172,800 rows a day. (I'm being overly pessimistic here.) We'd like to be able to keep all of this around as long as possible.
Or would a more heavy duty DB be in order for these sorts of data rates?
Hi, I need some help about a project I'm working on.
I'm working on a project (based on MS SQL Server) that will involve a lot of clients, each one constantly querying the server. Just to have an idea of the project, I'm talking of about 2000 clients, each one queries the database 3-4 times per second: a total of 6-8000 queries per second. The database is reached through Internet and every client uses a dedicated DSL connection.
My questions are: - What is the maximum workload of a Microsoft SQL Server? - What happens when the server workload reaches 100%? is there a queue? and what happens when the queue is full? is it possible that the server goes out of service due the excess of work? - What are (more or less) the hardware requirements for such a server?
can anyone help me, at least telling me how to find these answers (web sites, books, ...)
