I had an idea to put all my web design settings, css text and web content in the database..This way it would be easy for others to edit remotely. Do you guys think this would have an impact on performance if I do this?
View 7 Replieshi guys,
Could any one tell me whats the best way to put encypted data into a table.i have a textfield that a single integer is entered into it. It is then encrypted using DES encrption algorithim.It converts the value to byte(Convert2ByteArray method) I pass the data to a stored procedure which converts it to char before inserting it into the table. when i checked the database all it entered was System.Byte[]. Does anyone know where im goin wrong?

hii all;
My question is from 2 sections:
1- Is it secure to put user accounts (userName and password ...) on the database?
2- How can I set username and password for SQL server 2005 express file?
Thanks
How do you put the master database in single user mode if you want to restore it. the options in the permissions are greyed out? Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a scheduling application that I created that allows users to select several microscopes from a multiple select list and then select users from a datagrid and change their permissions. ie it will add a record to a table that allows them to use the selected microscopes or it will delete the record from the table if it already exists since the table is only two columns and both make the primary key.So right now I'm just deleting the records when a duplicate primary key exception is thrown (although I'm not sure how to return from the catch and continue the rest of my loops to continue adding or deleting permissions.Alternatively I could check the database before executing the insert or delete command and see if that record already exists and avoid the catch/return scenerio. But which is more intensive on the server? Is there a better way to do this that I haven't thought of? Thanks~Cattrah~
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi,
i am experiencing SQl write performance problems on a very shiny server. Got data files on a Raid 1+0, log files on a separate drive, all SCSI, Win2003 server, 6G RAM, 2 Xeon processors. I've created a small benchmarking program and run it on my desktop pc and this 'big' server. Here are the results:
Desktop: SQL server inserts: 78 Seconds, Direct writes to the harddisk(Just write a string to the file 10000 times): 13 seconds
SQLServer: SQL server inserts: 422 Seconds, Direct writes to the harddisk: 16 seconds
So, for some reason, my 'shiny' machine is 6 times slower on writes than my desktop. When i tried comparing the select performance, my shiny server is 10 times faster than my desktop.
Initially i had Raid5 on my server and it had poorer direct write performance but now, direct writes seem to be ok, so, i recon this is a problem related to SQL server.
What can i do to improve the insert performance?
Thanks in advance
I've create a bunch of views to expose a logical model of the underlying database of an application server.
To enforce the security control, I've also created a CLR UDF to call the application server's API for security check and audit log.
For example, we have a table, tblSecret, and the view, vwSecret, is,
SELECT
Id,
ParentId,
Description,
SecretData
FROM tblSecret
WHERE udfExpensiveApiCall(Id) = 1
The udfExpensiveApiCall will return 1 if the current user is allowed to access the SecretData else 0. The CLR UDF call is very expensive in terms of execution time and resources required.
Currently, there are millions rows in the tblSecret.
My objective is to tune the view such that when the view is JOINed, the udfExpensiveApiCall will be called the least number of time.
SELECT
ParentId,
SecertData
FROM vwParent
LEFT JOIN vwSecret ON vwSecret.ParentId = vwParent.ParentId
WHERE vwParent.StartDate > '1/1/2008'
AND vwSecret.Description LIKE '%WHATEVER%'
Is there any way to specify the execution cost of the CLR UDF, udfExpensiveApiCall, such that the execution plan will call the UDF while it is absolutely necessary?
Is there any query hint will help?
Any recommendation?
Thanks,
Simon Chan
I'm relatively new to compact framework and SQL Server Compact so bear with me if I've got an obvious thing I've forgotten.
I've written my own database helper layer. My idea is to generate SQL Insert statements dynamically based on what is in the contents of each object. Peformance however is horrible. I try to do 1800 inserts and it takes about 50 seconds on the device (Release Build, outside of the IDE).
I pass in a list of objects to be inserted which derive from a ModelBase class. ModelBase includes some ORM information (what table the object goes into. what fields are mapped to which properties). I generate one SQLCeCommand object, one sql string (new params for each insert), and am using SqlCeResultResultSets.
What can I do to make this run faster? Thank you
Code Snippet
public bool Insert(List<ModelBase> recs)
{
SqlCeConnection con = new SqlCeConnection(connectionString);
try
{
con.Open();
con.BeginTransaction();
}

{
return false;
}
SqlCeCommand cmd = new SqlCeCommand();
cmd.Connection = con;
String sqlString = "INSERT INTO [" + recs[0].tableName + "] (";
String sqlString2 = ") VALUES (";
PropertyInfo[] props = recs[0].GetType().GetProperties();
for (int x = 0; x < props.Length; x++)
{
PropertyInfo pi = props[x];
if (recs[0].fieldMap.ContainsKey(pi.Name))
{
sqlString += "[" + recs[0].fieldMap[pi.Name] + "]";
sqlString2 += "@" + pi.Name;
sqlString += ", ";
sqlString2 += ", ";
}
}
sqlString = sqlString.Substring(0, sqlString.LastIndexOf(", "));
sqlString2 = sqlString2.Substring(0, sqlString2.LastIndexOf(", "));
sqlString += sqlString2 + ")";
cmd.CommandText = sqlString;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;

{
cmd.Parameters.Clear();

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do i find who has changed the settings in the database.
basically when i looked at this morning i saw a database which is set in single user mode.when i tried to look at the errorlog i found nothing except the spid's of different people and as far as i know i think that spid's are assigned randomly depending on there availability.
Now this has happened twice recently and now i want to find out who the culprit is his username, machine name but not spid.
Can i do it if how can i.
how do i track each and every users info what he is doin and at what time.
do i need to set up or configure any options.
sometimes i also see that there is a dbcc command run by as it says winnt/system what does this mean how is this running.

Hi,
I just upgraded to SQl Server 2000 from 7, and realized that all my reports created with existing scripts no longer work fine. The reports appear corrupt. Below is an example of a report script:
declare @vSubject varchar(30),
@vMessage varchar(20)
Begin
Select @vSubject = 'Report as of :' + convert(varchar,getdate()-1,1)
Select @vMessage = 'Automatic Report'
EXEC xp_sendmail @recipients = 'Bob',
@query = "FetchEmailData",
@attachments = 'DailyReport.wri',
@subject = @vSubject,
@message = @vMessage,
@attach_results = 'TRUE',@width = 250
End
The DailyReport.wri file appears corrupt when opened with notepad. The same happens to .xls reports too.
Are there settings I need to change or is this a SQL2K issue ?. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated. SQL Server 2000 runs on Windows 2000 Adv.
Thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn SQL Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition, I was wondering if it is possible in the Add Connection dialog under Advanced settings to change the Data Source SQL server from the local .sqlexpress to a network SQL Express server. It seems as though the option is locked. I am in a doman, and using Windows Authentication. I also have TCP/IP enabled on the SQL server, and no firewall restrictions for the SQL service. Also, my account permissions should also allow me to do this.

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 (8.0.50727.42) and going into the menu option Website > ASP.Net Configuration, access the security tab and all I get is an error message stating that there is a problem with the selected data store "Unable to Connect to the SQL Server Database"
I have SQL Server 2005 (Express Edition). I have created a database "NetDev" with the right connection, etc.
I can use the SQL server fine for my Windows applications, but somehow this ASp.Net Configuration tool is not making any sense.
I also used the aspnet_regsql command from framework 2.0 to create a DataBase to no avail.
Does anyone out there knows if there is a bug with this tool???
I have following table structure
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[FAS_LEDGER](
[TID] [INT] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[TDATE] [DATETIME] NOT NULL,
[code].....
in this table I have 1571182 rows
the problem is someone did some changes in this LEDGER table
I can insert new rows in this table but when I try to fetch latest rows on the basis of following query then I did not get the latest row.
means
following query gives all the rows of this table
SELECT * FROM dbo.FAS_LEDGER ORDER BY TID DESC
and when I try to filter Master_code = '02-07-01-008-0001' and apply oder by TDATE I do not get latest rows
SELECT * FROM dbo.FAS_LEDGER WHERE MASTER_CODE = '02-07-01-008-0001'
ORDER BY TDATE DESC
Script to Reverse Engineer / Script out your EXISTING database mail settings?
I set up a profile to use gMail, and it seems logical for me to export out the settings to a script, then run the script on my laptop, other servers, etc.
There's no built in option, so I figured i'd ping the forum before i do it myself.
There are example scripts where you fill in the blanks, examples how to set up dbmail, but i did not find anything that scripts out existing settings.
Hello all...
I am working on a project that contains several databases in SQL and many settings. The problem I am encountering is that I want to be able to update the program for all my customers. That is no problem.
The problem I am meeting is where, when the program is updated, all the settings and all the information in the databases reverts to the default values, or the values that were compiled with the new update.
I want to be able to update their program without deleting all the settings they have.
Thanks,
Andreas Renberg
Hi There
We currently have the following scenario:
4 app servers with regional date and time settings of locale A.
1 database server with locale settings B.
What is happening is that timestamps are being generated on the app servers, these are then in a sql command which fails on the database server since the timestamp format is invalid.
It was suggested that we change the regional locale settings of the database server, but will this not have serious implications , for example every current timestamp format in the datbase will become invalid?
In a nutshell is it safe to change a database servers regional date time locale settings ? Or are there serious implications?
Thanx
I have a simple Website and Database created in VWD exp.
I've just added a windows account to GoDaddy.com.
Unfortunately there is no way to port your database on to the GoDaddy server directly, but it says you must instead, recreate the database by copying and running SQL statements from a file called "personal-add.sql". (their "help" page: http://help.godaddy.com/article.php?article_id=695)
I can't find any such file. Can someone please let me know what I'm missing here?
Thanks.

Hi,
I'm pretty new to SQL and I've got a bit of a sticky problem. I've looked around on the net for a solution but possibly I just don't know what I should be searching on.
I'm trying to join tables together where there is a one to many releationship - but I'm trying to put the results for each relationship on one row (which kind of results in dynamic columns).
table one:
Number
1111
2222
3333
table two:
Number Code
1111 15
2222 18
2222 13
3333 22
2222 26
I want the resulting table to look like:
Number Code1 Code2 Code3
1111 15
2222 18 13 26
3333 22
Is this possible? There is no limit on how many rows in table 2 can be related to table 1.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for what I should be looking at?
The reason I'm trying this is for SQL reporting services if that makes a difference?
Thanks,
Kelvin.
Hi all,
I have a asp .net 1.1 application running on the intranet which uses SQL Server 2000.
The application is in production and everytime I want to do some changes, i do the changes on my
development machine then I copy the application dll on the server.
The problem is that I'm using Stored Procedures for all my Select, Insert and Delete statements.
These stored procedures are live on the server so I can't do the modifications locally and test them then copy to the server.
How can I do modifications without affecting the production server and the users ???
thanks.
I just want to get the sum of a table's column into a variable, in a stored procedure. The best I can do is
SET @TotalBalance = SELECT SUM(Balance) FROM AccountDetails
Not good enough, of course.
I'm trying to put a date into a SQL Server table. The database field type is "smalldatetime". The variable dDate is type "date" and contains: 2/2/2006 (although I think Cdate actually converts it to: #2/2/2006#). When I run the following code the date in the database is always ends up being: 1/1/1900.
Dim cmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO MyTable(MyDate) " & _ "VALUES (" & dDate & ")", SqlConn)daAppts.InsertCommand = cmddaAppts.InsertCommand.Connection = SqlConndaAppts.InsertCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
Any other field types work fine, it's just dates that aren't working ???? Can someone please provide a code snippet showing me what I'm doing wrong??
The two queries:
set dateformat 'dmy'
select count(c.id), e.name
from call c left outer join employee e
on c.req_id = e.id
where c.posted between '01/01/2002' and '30/11/2002'
group by e.name
order by count(c.id) desc
set dateformat 'dmy'
select count(ch.id), e.name
from call_hist ch left outer join employee e
on ch.req_id = e.id
where ch.posted between '01/01/2002' and '30/11/2002'
group by e.name
order by count(ch.id) desc

How do I put these results in one? I need not two but one Query.
Please help me. Thanks
I've got 2 tables :
TABLE DateSqlServer
Date as DateTime
TABLE DateDb2
Date as VarChar(26)
I run these queries :
INSERT INTO DateSqlServer (Date) VALUES (GetDate())
INSERT INTO DateDb2 SELECT Date FROM DateSqlServer
Then, when I run :
SELECT Date FROM DateDb2
I get
"march 8 2004 3:45 PM"
instead of
"2004-03-08 03:45:12:000"
How can I transfer the date as I see it in table DateSQLServer
WITHOUT doing FORMATs on the Date column ?
Why does the INSERT transform the date format ?
