Linked server from SQL2005 to SQL2000
Hi
I use the following SQL statements to create a link server. RemoteServerName is an SQL2000 and I am executing this in another machine which is SQL2005.
Though the link server is created successfully, I am not able to se the tables under it so could not query anything.
----
USE [master]
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @srvproduct=N'SQL Server'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'collation compatible', @optvalue=N'false'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'data access', @optvalue=N'true'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'rpc',@optvalue=N'false'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'rpc out', @optvalue=N'false'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'connect timeout', @optvalue=N'0'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'collation name', @optvalue=null
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'query timeout', @optvalue=N'0'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption @server=N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @optname=N'use remote collation', @optvalue=N'true'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = N'RemoteServerNameInstanceName', @locallogin = NULL , @useself = N'False', @rmtuser = N'remoteUser', @rmtpassword = N'remotePassword'

Hello all
I have an odd problem with sql 2005. I'm a long time sql 2000 user trying to migrate to 2005. My company uses CSVs to import data from our clients db into our SQL db. In 2000 I just create a txt source and pick whichever CSV and transform to a temp sql table. This has always worked just fine with no problems.
So we have a new server with sql 2005 installed. I go through the "migrate dts 2000" wizard and pull in all my DTSs from sql 2000. The first thing I see that needs to be fixed is "connection 1" which is my CSV connection manager along with the flat file source.
I went through both the connection and the flat file source and tried to copy exactly what I do in sql 2000. When I preview the data or even execute this package I get bad data.
Here is what my CSV looks like:
"ACCT ","ACCOUNT DESCRIPTION ","ACCT TYPE","SCH NO","SC"
"9999Z","Balance By Source Offset",9
"87B","UTILITIES(NOT PHONE)U-C",7
72,"ADM-LEGAL/AUDIT/COLL EXP",7
315,"SALES TAX - VEHICLES LOCAL 1",3
"90A","INTEREST(NON FPLAN/MORT)/N-C",7
73,"MEALS & ENTERTAINMENT-ALL",7
"210A","REBATES RECEIVABLE",2,17,4
"5A@","# OF EXT WARR SALES-UC",10
"51N","N/C-VEHICLE INV MAINTENANCE",7
"87D","UTILITIES(NOT PHONE)SVC",7
"90B","INTEREST(NON FPLAN/MORT)U-C",7
317,"ACCRUED OTHER",3,75,4
This is what it looks like when I preview it inside the flat file connection manager:
ACCT ACCT DESC ACCT TYPE SCH NO SCTYPE
9999z blance by source... 9– – "87B" UTILITIES(NO... 7
So it is basically putting two rows of csv data into one row of SQL data. Now I realize my CSV isn't in the correct format because it doesn't have the extra commas at the end of a row IF the columns are null. It seems that 2005 doesn't recognize the carriage return/line feed. It puts the actual ascii characters in the preview. Once I execute the package it changes the ascii characters into blank spaces. My big issue is, why did this work just fine in 2000 but I can't get clean data in 2005? I'm completely clueless now, I have no idea where to go with this. Its impossible to change the output of the CSVs I get. There is literally no other options. I kinda get what I get with them. Why is this happening?

Hi,
I'm running a VB6 app with MDAC 2.8 on Windows Server 2003 SP1.
I create an ADO recordset with a SELECT statement which returns an empty recordset.
I then add 2 new records to it with AddNew and later perform an UpdateBatch.
Before the SQL upgrade it worked fine but now errors with:
'Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.'
I did a SQL Trace to find out what the Updatebatch was actualling sending to SQL (listed below).
This works fine when I run it on Query Analyser using SQL 2000 but fails on SQL 2005.
I worked out the problem is linked to the columns NewValue and OldValue both are varchar 70.
The first insert has them defined varchar(7) and varchar(1). This insert succeeds, but the second insert has the columns defined as varchar(18) and varchar(12). This one fails (unless they only contains numbers!).
I'm confused.
I've read that sp_executesql has changed for SQL2005.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Howard
