I have developed a database on my local machine using MSDE. I am using Visual Studio.net to add tables/stored procedures to the database. I have created asp.net pages. I need to get this database on a web server that runs Enterprise SQL Server. Can I just use the 'sp_detach_db' and 'sp_attach_db' to move the database between servers?

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?

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 ?
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 ?

I created a website using Visual web developer express edition (including SQL Express). No the user management section of the site (the login/logout database) was created automatically and SQL Server express was installed at my computer under the instance name of SQLExpress.

How do I configure my website to accommodate that? Any help will be extremely useful!!!
We have an old client server application (vb / sql 2000) we have now converted that application to a web based asp.net / sql 2000. Though the db is same (sql 2000) for both applications, tables/columns has been changed during the development process. Now i need to migrate the data from our old db to this new db. Should this be done the "painful" way of checking each and every table its links/dependencies, columns manually or is there a tool which helps me migrate the data from one db to another (even though the tables/columns are different)Please Help.Thanks.

Has anyone had any experience with the Oracle Migration Workbench? or using DTS to migrate MS SQL to Oracle? The Migration Workbench seems to work great but it is having parsing issues with some of the syntax in our triggers and procs (roughly 1025 of them). Are there other ways of handling these errors other than manually cleaning them up?
I have data in tables with the constraints turn on. I would like to remove all the data from the tables and add new data, and also reset the identity back to 1, without dropping the constraints.
Any suggestions??
If I used truncate table, I would have to remove the primary key. If I remove the primary key I would loss my constraints.

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?
