Hi all,

I executed the above code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) and I got the following error messages:
Msg 911, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'NORTHWIND'. No entry found with that name.
Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
===============================================================================================================
I know I recreated the NORTHWIND Database from a different Database before and I did not do anything for the entry in sysdatabases. How can I change the entry in sysdatabases for database 'NORTHWIND' now? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

I've running MSDE on a win xp box with SP2. The SQL server service manager indicates that the SQL server is running. I'm using Visual Studio 2003. According to the install page for 101 VB and C# Code Samples I should install the .NET frameword samples db.. See http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=08E3D5F8-033D-420B-A3B1-3074505C03F3&displaylang=en
I cd to the appropriate dir and run osql -E -S (local)NetSDK -i InstNwnd.sql (the cmd given on the page noted above). I get the following error:

I'm a newbie to .NET and SQL server so this makes no sense to me. If the SQL server service manager indicates that the SQL server is running why do I get that error and what is the work around?
Thanks .NET great ones for helping a newbie get off the ground...

I just downloaded and installed MSDE2000 sp3a for winform and asp.net
quickstart tutorial. But I found it has no sample database such as pubs
and northwind. It used to have these databases. At least in last September
when .Net web Matrix came out.
If this is the case, can someone tell me where to get the sql scripts
to create Northwind database in MSDE?
Becasue the winform tutorial uses this database.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I tried to install the Northwind database into SQl Server Express via the instnwnd.sql script using the command line:
osql -E -i instnwnd.sql
after a time out though I get this message:

Server [2].

[SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to
the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by
the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote

I already granted access to the administrator account on my machine.
Anyone knows what I need to do more?

I am using Northwind database to Create a view showing every order that was shipped to Spain. Name the destination column 'DestinationSpain'. Include code that checks if the view already exists. If it does, it should be dropped and re-created.
Here is my script:
use Northwind
GO
/*STEP 2, #1*/
/* does it exist, if so drop it */
if exist (select * from dbo.sysobjects
where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[OrdersToSpain]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsView') = 1)
drop view [dbo].[OrdersToSpain]
GO
/* Create the View */
create view "OrdersToSpain" AS
SELECT
Orders.OrderID AS Order_ID,
Orders.CustomerID AS Customer_ID,
Orders.OrderDate AS Ordered_Date.
Orders.ShippedDate AS Shipped_Date,
Orders.ShipCountry AS DestinationSpain
FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID
WHERE Orders.ShipCounty LIKE '%SPAIN%'
GO
Here are the errors I am getting:
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'select'.

I have Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2.00 install which have installed the SQLEXPRESS server.
I have the Script for the Northwind database which I need to run some demos but I can figure out how to execute this script.
Can someone tell me what todo or how to attatched the database to this server. I also have a copy of the database already created. But When I tried login in into the database I get an error login fail.
Which is the default user amd password for the northwind database?

Hi all,
Long time ago, I downloaded the Northwind and pubs databases from the Microsoft website (I do not remember the details of it) and installed these two databases together into the SQL Server Management Studio Express of my PC (Microsoft Windows XP Pro). I tried to learn an example of using "User Instance" (source code was from a book) on the Northwind database located in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. I just find out that my Northwind database has the title only and no tables at all. If I click on the "+" in front of the "Northwind", I got the following error message:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
Failed to retrieve data for this request.(Microsoft SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)
Additional information:
One or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from backup. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5173)..
Please help and tell me how I can repair this Northwind database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Scott Chang
P. S.
I deleted the name 'Northwind' in my SQL Server Management Studio Express, executed the "SQL2005DBScriptsInstnwind" program and I got the following error message: Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Line 1

Hi all,
I tried to use dbo.tables of Northwind database in SQL Server Express to do SqlCommand to populate a DataTable in DataSet. The SqlCommand failed in the project execution and I found that Northwind database in SQL Server Express is busted and gone (just the name "Northwind" remained in the SQL Server Management Studio Express). How can I prevent it from happening in my "SqlCommand-SqlConnection" project? Please help and advise.
I tried to repair my "Northwind" database by using the SQL2000SampleDb.msi of Northwind and pubs Sample Databases for SQL Server 2000 downloaded from the http://www.microsoft.com/downloads. My "pubs" database is still in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. How can I just repair my "Northwind" database by using the Microsoft SQL2000SampleDb.msi program? Please help and advise this matter too.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
Hi all,
In my VB 2005 Express, I created a Windowds Form application "shcDataSet" that used 1 SqlConnection, 1 SqlDataSet and 3 SqlDataAdapters associated with the Northwind Database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. The SqlConnection had "User Instance" in the following ConnectionString: Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataorthwnd.mdf";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True. The 3 SqlDataAdapters were for the Northwind files "Customers", "Orders" and "Order Details" used in the SQLDataSet "AllOrders" with a AllOrders.xsd file. I ran the "shcDataSet" applicatyion and it worked fine. After the execution of "shcDataSet", I checked the Northwind database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express and clicked on "+" in front of Northwind database-I did not see any file showed up and I got the following error message: Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum) Additional information: one or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from a backup. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error:5173). If I executed the "shcDataSet" application again, I got a new error: SqlException was unhandled - Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'myPC##myName' ------->daCustomers.Fill(AllOrders11, "Customers"). I have 3 questions to ask: (1) How can I re-install the Northwind database in SQL Server Management Studio Express? (2) When I use the .Fill Method, do I have to tell the SQL Server Management Studio Express to load and/or unload the Northwind files "Customers", "Orders" and "Order Details"? (3) After I executed the "shcDataSet", should I Upload the 3 Northwind files back to the SQL Server Management Studio Express? Please help and advise. Thanks, Scott Chang

I executed the code successfully and I got a box which asked for "Enter the query string".
I typed in the following: EXEC dbo.SalesByCategory @Seafood. I got the following box: Query attempt failed. Must declare the scalar variable "@Seafood". I am learning how to enter the string for the "SQL query programed in the subQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnQuery.Click" (see the code statements listed above). Please help and tell me what I missed and what I should put into the query string to get the information of the "Seafood" category out.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
