Hello all,
I'm new to MS SQL server.
When using the "Management Studio" how do I create a database? When it starts up, I only seem to have the option of connecting to a database, while not actually creating one :S
Thanks
I am trying to find a solution to a thorny problem I have encountered...
I am a newbie in Sql Server 2000, but have quite a bit of experience in databases, both on PC and mainframe.
I am currently writing a program, which needs, among other things, to create Sql Server databases, to be located NOT in the default Mssql2000 directory, but in the user's home directory.
I am using an ADO connection and trying to execute it, as follows:
The text of the relevant part of the program goes like this:
Dim strCreateDatabase As String
Dim MyCn As ADODB.Connection
Set MyCn = New ADODB.Connection
With MyCn
.ConnectionTimeout = 25
.Provider = "sqloledb"
.Properties("Data Source").Value = "MOP"
.Properties("Initial Catalog").Value = ""
.Properties("Integrated Security").Value = "SSPI"
.Open
End With
strCreateDatabase = "Create Database Rimon on (" _
& "Name = Rimon, Filename = '\mopusersMR_DiazsalpmsdataRimon_Data.mdf', " _
& "Size = 20, MaxSize = 100, FileGrowth = 5) " _
& "Log on (Name = 'Rimon', Filename = 'c:usersMR_DiazsalpmsdataRimon_Log.ldf', " _
& "Size = 2, MaxSize = 10, FileGrowth = 1)"
MyCn.Execute strCreateDatabase
Both the name of the Sql Server and the Win2K server is MOP.
All the directories exist, and I have full access to them.
When I try to run this command, I get the following message:
File
'\mopusersMR_DiazsalpmsdataRimon_Data.mdf' is on a network device not supported for database files.
When I omit this location, it works just fine.
If I run it on the server, using another directory, it works just fine.
Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,
I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY
(ACTIVITY_NAME ASC, PROCESS_NAME ASC, START_TIME ASC, ISMONITORED ASC)
INCLUDE
(INSTANCE_ID, ACTIVITY_TYPE, STATUS, END_TIME, ORGANIZATION);
Any help in creating such indexes in 2000 version is welcome.
Thanks,
Suresh.

I am running MS SQL Server 7 with SP3 installed and am having some problems getting replication to work correctly. I want to replicate all tables from one database to another database on the same server. I can setup replication, add publications and add subscriptions without any problem and all goes well until the replication process starts when the job aborts because it cannot find the sp_MSins..., sp_MSupd... or the sp_MSdel... stored procedures. I have used the New Publication wizard to create a Transactional publication, published all tables and allowed the wizard to use the default stored procedures which it says will be created when the subscribers are initialized but although I have created push subcriptions the stored procedures are never created and hence the replication fails whenever the job runs.
I have SA access to the databases concerned and as far as I am aware the jobs are running as my login - can anybody help me out as this is beginning to drive me nuts.
Thanks
Chris
While attempting to set up sql replication in MSSQL 2005 one of my user databases is now in the systems database folder. I need to move it back to the user databases folder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am new to ms SQL. I only have the use of the Enterprise Manager.
Creating tables I understand. However I am confused on how to add data to
a table or view the data in a table. Can this be done through Enterprise Manager? If I am adding a large amount of data do I have to use the query window. This seems like a tedious method. In Access yo have a form basically pop up where you can type in the record sets. Any advice would be appreciated! Sincerely,

Would any body be able to suggest the best way switch a Lotus .nsf file to Ms SQL database or even to an Access?
I have a .nsh file that I am able to see the contents of but not the database structure, and rather then rebuilding the database and manually inserting the content I would like to import all the information from an old .nsf file that appears to have restriction on it.
Any Suggestions
Here is my code
ALTER PROCEDURE Test
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @From varchar(10)
DECLARE @To varchar(10)
DECLARE @DBName varchar
SELECT TOP 1 @From = CONVERT(char,CreateDate,101) FROM CustomerInfo
WHERE TicketNum =
(SELECT TOP 1 TicketNum FROM CustomerInfo
WHERE CreateDate <= DATEADD(mm, -30, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
ORDER BY CreateDate DESC)
SELECT @To = CONVERT(char,GETDATE(),101)
SET @DBName = 'Archive_SafeHelp'
CREATE DATABASE @DBName + ' ' + @From + ' ' + @To
END
I am trying to create a database based on the name contained in the variables. I get the error 'Incorrect syntax near '@DBName'. How do i accomplish this?
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,Is it better to use a DSN connection or using a connection string Set Connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Which is easier to use and more reliable? Also could I have all the connection info on one page and then just include it with a include statment everytime I need to query the database?? Thank you, Rich

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello:
I am supporting a mssql 6.5, sp 4 application.
We have set up an user acceptance server with a database that is the same as production. However, I have been told that this database and server may be used for applying fixes rather than user acceptance.
To avoid confusion over which database is on which server, it might be a good idea to rename the database. I am not sure if this can be done un der mssql 6.5?
1)Can I rename a database?
2)If so, how can I do so?
Which system tables would I use to update?
Any information you can furnish will be appreciated. THanks.

David writes "Dear sir,
I've installed VS.NET 2005 Professional many times and find that the MS SQL Express 2005 is running.
My ambition is to log into this server so that I can convert my MySQL database into it. What is the default;
Hostname
Port
Username
Password
What tool is provided so that I might execute my schema to create a database in this server. This 'schema' will obviously have many tables inside. Most SQL products provide some type of utility program where one can create, edit, delete databases and an adminstration program. I see nothing of yours in my Programs -> MS SQL Server 2005 -> SQL Computer Manager.
Thank you,

Hello, another question from a newbie to mssql.Is there a way of allowing access to database only by providing username andpassword (disabling trusted connection and preventing administrator toaccess database through enterprise manager or otherwise without supplyingusername and password)?What I would like is that my application upon instalation creates databasewith appropriate tables (already done this) and somehow solely creates andmanages user list and passwords so that there is no access to database otherthrough application. (Application would create a backdoor account shouldsomething go wrong)

Has anyone had a problem transfering a database to a server.
This is the first time I have done this.
I have a site and sqldatabase hosted by a hosting company and I am supposed to transfer my database
This is what I'm doing
From the Start Menu, select "Programs" -> "Microsoft SQL Server" -> "Import and Export Data" then click "Next".
In the "Server" field, type in the Name or IP of the source server (your server), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your username and password, choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next".
Note: You can also use Windows Authentication if the SQL server is a local server.
In the "Server" field, type in the hostname of the DiscountASP SQL Server (this is listed in your hosting control panel), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your DiscountASP database username and password (this was sent in your database order confirmation email), choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next".
Choose "Copy objects…", click "Next".
Uncheck Use Default Option.
Click Options, uncheck "Copy Database users and database roles", "Copy SQL Server logins", "Copy object-level Permissions".
Leave next window as is, click "Next".
Click "Finish".
It seems to work ok untill it gets to about 90% done then a message says "There has been an error" and gives no more info.
Can anyone help me out

Hello:
I am running an application on mssql 6.5, sp4.
We are working on using a database as a publisher and a remote database as a subscriber for one replication in Canada.
WE havw just been told that another application on a different server(publisher/ distribution) wants to replication to our database as a subscriber.
We also will need(as a publisher/distribution) to replication to a second subscriber database after we completely test the first replication to Canada.
Therefore my questions are:
1) Can a database on a local database -- our database -- on one server be a publisher and subscriber to ther different databases?
2)has any one been involved with replication on a database used both as a publisher and subscriber to different replications requirements?
What are the pitfalls aside from the scheduling conflicts?
3) In terms of database space requirements, how much disk space extra do we need? What guidelines should we use? For each table as an article, assuming we are doing the full table, do we add 100% more space or what?
4) Any other pitfalls we should be aware of?
Thanks.

Hi.. When I go to my MSSQL 2000 database-->
properties-->Databse size is 1500MG and the space
available is 305MB
But I don't understand how space available come from.
As I had put my Database file and Transaction log file
as unrestricted file grow. And put automatically file
grow by 10% for both file and log
Why is the limit come from ?
Besides, I have a database which indicate space
available as 0M in the database properties but it is
still functioning. why?

Hello guys,
Here is the case. I have up and running database on MSSQL server. My client deliver me updates. Since now they were as INSERT statements, but they decided to change some stuff at their side. Now the updates will come as pairs of files (.dbf and .mdx) for each table...
How I can insert them in the running database?
Several months ago I installed what I thought was an unlimited license of MSSQL Database Server 2000. This weekend the database expired. What can I do? I don't want to lose the data. If I attempt to reinstall the software, will that work? We are in the process in purchasing the software but not for a few months. The database is used to store and retrieve data in our OutStart server. Any idea is helpful.
