How do I query an SQL Express database from within an Excel 2002 VBA macro?
For example, how could I accomplish this in an Excel macro.
SELECT myID FROM MyTable WHERE Compound = string in cell A1
And then put the resulting ID number in cell A2. The relationship between Compound and myID is always one to one.
Thanks to all.

I have already set up a DTS package to convert my data to an excel file and I would like to alter the format of my data through my DTS without having to write a macro.
Do you know how to do this?
Does anyone know how to do this?

Can you call run an excel macro as part dts step. I would imagine it would be some active script, but am not sure.
Any Ideas ?.
I am running SQL 7.0 sp2, excel 97.
I know this might be the wrong forums, but I thought that some SQL Server users might know the answer and have accomplished this before. Does anyone know how to run a SQL Server job through an Excel macro? I have the macro where it's entering the data into my database, but now I need to use the data by running the job. Thanks!

View 3 Replies View Relatedhow to write a query to find the no of tables present in that database.
Any suggestions.
I need to query a database with about 3 million records using a 'like' statement on various varchar columns. I've have a non-clustered index on the columns included in my query, but the performance is still pretty slow. Can anyone suggest ways to increase the speed of my queries? Does full-text indexing improve performance or does it just facilitate more advanced searches (which I don't need)? Would char instead of varchar datatypes be faster?
thanks!
Hi, I have been using Microsoft Access for a couple of years and we have just switched to SQL Server. However, I'm having problems querying the Mysql databases our company has in place. I have managed to establish connections in the Visual Studio but can't seem to link tables from two different databases like I could in Access. Is this possible? Also, is it possible to connect to the mysql database via management studio? Apologies for my complete lack of knowledge!
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi everybody,
Our SRS reporting security model had to be designed so that the access is by individual report basis and by user. I cannot give access to individual reports based on windows AD group. Because everybody in that group does not need to have access to a particular report. Two people from one AD group needs access to say Report1. Only one person need to have access to Report2 etc.... Creating lot of AD groups for the security is also not advisable.
Right now I can tell right away users having access to a particular report as the number of reports and the users is small. But I want to design a report that can give me a list of users who have access to a specific report.
How do I query the reportserver database to get this information. I mean is this information saved in any of the tables?
Can you please give any info that you know of such information?
Thank you in advance for all your help,
I am implementing an application that is looking into another System’s database (DBF). I need to query out new orders that have been put in daily. What is the best way to handle this situation? Should I write a service or have a trigger setup in MSDE? I just need to do a simple SELECT statement that grabs orders between a date range and update my SQL database (MSDE). I am not looking for specific code examples, just a solution.
What are my choices?
Thanks,
Jason

I'm in a trouble.
So, I need to query some data in DB2 with Reporting Service.
I don't know if there's a way to do it, without using DTS Package, because if I did it, I'd be replicating it, and it's not the case. 'Cause I just want to query the data in DB2 and not bring the data to SQL.
There's a provider that I can do it?
Suppose I use a Linked Server, and add a Net-Library based on their Operational System, it would resolve? If not, what would be the best way of resolving this trouble??
Would appreciate some help with this one. I need to run a query on a known table an arbitrary database. The DB name will be selected at runtime.
What I've tried:
DECLARE @DBName varchar(10)
SET @DBName = 'WBTST'
SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT Col1, Col2
FROM [@DBName].dbo.Table1
GROUP BY Col1
Result:
Invalid object name '@DBName.dbo.UPR00100'.
I've also tried without the square brackets around @DBName in the FROM clause. This results in: Incorrect syntax near '.'.
Thanks for the help

Hello,I need to come up with a stored procedure that will allow me to readdata from another database. The database I need to read the data fromis a UniData residing on a Unix server. The stored procedure needs toreside on my sql 2005 server. The task is very simple in Access as wehave ODBC connections set up to the UniData via Informix (or IBM)UniData ODBC drivers. I can easily combine my UniData and Sql Servertables from within access. However, I can't seem to find a way toreplicate the same behavior in MS SQL Stored Procedure without the useof Access. Is that even possible?Thanks,Marek
View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to query a linked server and join that database to my local database. I finally was able to get it to work and I got this query to work:
select * from openquery([hcda-storagesrvlaserfiche], 'select * from toc where parentid=358')
I would like to join one of my tables from my local database to the query. How can I do this? Thanks!
I know that I can use:
IS_MEMBER('MyRoleName') = 1
to determine if a user is a member of a predetermined role, but how do I ask what the role name of the querying user is instead? Basically I want to do something like:
SELECT * FROM CityTable WHERE City IN (SELECT City FROM CitySecurity WHERE SelectGroup = ROLE_NAME)
I'm doing this because the "CitySecurity" table contains security information from another system that has been imported into SQL Server, where the 'SelectGroup', as part of process, will be named the same as the SQL Server role.
Thanks,

I created an Image for the Database in sqlserver 2000. When I am querying directly the database as "Select * from employee", it is returning the result set.
But, when I am querying Database image with same query. It is giving error
Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'Employee'
It is expecting the Database Owner. If I do query like "Select * from [Owner].employee", it is working fine.
My requirement is not use owner in queries, it should be simple query ("Select * from employee").
Can any one, help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Is there any way to deploy reports to a Report Manager in SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 if the reports query SQL Server 2000 databases? Or are only 2005 databases able to deploy to the web?
Also, if I have a report that queries both, can I deploy it to the web on the 2005 Report Manager with a linked server to the 2000 server?
Our IT department says to me all a stored procedure is, is a Macro. This is what Our network tech says to me. There are days I just want slap these people. This is the same one that made the Flat File comment, I think databases are very important and can be very complex I get annoyed when they IT people make them seems as if they are of no importance at all.
Venting again sorry

Here's the scenario. Using a campaigning applicaion for aneNewsletter. It writes to an Access table. I have an ASP web page thatwrites to another table. I chained 3 Access queries together into aMacro to copy that data to the campaigning table, give a numericidentifier to that record, and then delete all records with thatidentifier (in the 2nd table). This will keep the ASP > Access tableclean.The campaigning software allows for a pre-processing SQL command tobe run. I would like to automate the updating of the table byinitiating this Access Macro from the SQL command. Anyone have anyideas on the command/syntax?Thanks in advanceJasonJoin Bytes!

Greetings!I am now doing one type of analysis every month, and wanted to creattable names in a more efficient way.Here is what happens now, everytime I do the analysis, I will create atable called something like customer_20050930, and then update thetable by using several update steps. Then next month I will create atable called customer_20051031. Does anyone know if there is a betterway to do it? like using a macro variable for the month-end date? Noweverytime I have to change the table name in every single update step,which would cause errors if I forget to change one of them. By using amacro, I would only need to change it once.Thanks!
