View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I apologize in advance for the lack of homework before posting, but I am just looking for a quick answer, or a quick point in the right direction to figure this out.
I have a developer from an adjacent team that wants to use Reporting Services in a SQL Server 2005 installation.
From what I found online during what I thought was a definitive search yesterday, I gave him the MSDN SQL Server 2005 DVD and told him that Reporting Services is now part of the standard installation. Which is what my brief search yesterday indicated to me.
He did the installation (full, according to him) and said he could not find Reporting Services.
So, the quick question is...
Where is Reporting Services in SQL Server 2005? I don't have a separate MSDN DVD that contains it as was the case on SQL Server 2000. This further supports my (wavering) position that it is part of the standard installation.
Thoughts? Direction? Collective kicks in the posterior?
Thanks!
Hi Folks,
Easy SQL question....first to answer correctly gets...the satisfaction of knowing he helped a fellow developer in need.
Runnning SQL 7.0 on an NT 4.0 platform in a client server network environment. Authentication is done on the NT level. Each user has his/her own name and password. Most users use the same shared software app.
QUESTION: Can the same user login to multiple machines concurrently and run applications without fear of locking or hanging or causing other mischief?
TIA.

How does one get the primary key of the row that is joined in via agroup by aggregate clause when the aggregate is not performed on theprimary key?For example,Person table(PersonID int,FirstName varchar(50)LastName varchar(50))Visit table(VisitID int,PersonID int,VisitDate datetime)These are simplified versions of my tables. I'm trying to create aview that gets the first time each person Visited:selectp.PersonID,min(v.VisitDate)fromVisit vjoinPerson p on p.PersonID = v.PersonIDgroup byp.PersonIDThe problem is that I would like to return the VisitID in theresultset, but when I do it expands the query since I have to also putit in the group by clause.What are the different ways to achieve this?Subqueries?Only return the date and then join off of date on the outside?Neither of these seem too entising...Thanks in advance for any help.-Dave
View 6 Replies View RelatedIn MS SS 2005 Management Studio, how do you close the query result screen?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't have much experience with writing Sql, which is why i'm not sure.
But basically, I have a MSSQL 2005 Database that a person can list a property with,
and if the property listing expires by date, the user can relist the listing.
The records on the search function are automatically sorted by date, and I want the relisted records to update the datecreated.
I added "DateCreated" to the relisting storedprocedure to change DateCreated to todays date, but I am guessing.
Specials = @Specials,
ExpirationDate = @ExpirationDate ,DateCreated = GetDate(),
DateApproved = @DateApproved,
This seems to work, but I just wanted to check to make sure it's in the proper format.

Whats the difference between nvarchar and varchar, and which one should I use?

I develop with SQL Server 2000 at work. Because I occasionally work athome I also have SQL Server there.Although the data is not all that important, occasionally I make changesto the structures of the tables in my database at work. (n.b. The wholedatabase is well under 20 MB)I was wondering about a quick and convenient method to communicate thosechanges home. I can't use networked replication because of thefirewalls at each end. (Maybe I could, but I don't know how.)Is there any quick and easy way to transfer table structure updates fromhere to home? I have CD-RW available at each end.It would be acceptable, but not necessary to backup/restore the entiredatabase. I'm more interested in a one-button type of solution, ratherthan an "efficient" method.-- Rick

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am new to Sql, so I think this is a really easy question.
But I am working on a 2005 MSSQL database.
When I add columns to an existing application with data and tables already being used, and the new column will be set to Database Null.
What is an easy way to quickly add the data to all the rows in the table.
For example if I am adding a checkbox, I've been doing it manually, add the column, change all the rows to False, one by one.
And then I can change it to Disallow DBNull.
As I get more and more users this could be a very time consuming process.
So the name of the Table is classifeds_Ads and let's say the column I want to add is Bonus and it needs to be filled with False.
How do I do this???

Unbelieveible!
I can not seem to find any source for questions database related that don't include using 2.0 controls just as the come out of the box!
HELP!!!!
Simple issue (or so it seems) but I can't get an anwer:
Example:
TextBox.Text has information that I want placed in a table in a sql database. So I build a SQLDataSource control, and the triggers to fire the insert method. I modify the InsertCommand of the SQLDataSource so that it will write my record to the table. Something like...
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO MyTable(Description, Status) VALUES ('TextBox.Text', 'Default New Record Status)"
Now... the problem is with 'TextBox.Text' . When formated as is. the text string TextBox.Text is inserted into a record in the target table. My problem, the simple one remember, is refering to the text string stored inside of TextBox.Text and have that value stored in the new row under the Description column.
I can't believe that no one can help with this simple problem. Once resolved then my page is done... this is ALL that holds it up and I can't find a reference to how to go about it.
Thanks,Ken....

"Falling back on cursors because they remind you of datasets will result in poor performance "
Hi, The above quote was from an article which advice to use store procedure and avoid T-sql in the body of a webpage.
Anyway, To me, I always use cursor when I want to process one row at a time. Is there an alternative to cursor in MS sql server to have similar results.?
thanks

Please suggest correct answer (A,B,C,D) for the following Question
You are developing an application for a worldwide furniture wholesaler. You need to create an inventory table on each of the databases located in New York, Chicago, Paris, London, San Francisco, and Tokyo. In order to accommodate a distributed environment, you must ensure that each row entered into the inventory table is unique across all location. How can you create the inventory table?
A.Use the identity function. At first location use IDENTITY(1,4), at second location use IDENTITY(2,4), and so on.
B.Use the identity function. At first location use IDENTITY(1,1), at second location use IDENTITY(100000,1), and so on.
C.CREATE TABLE inventory ( Id Uniqueidentifier NOT NULL DEFAULT NEWID(), ItemName Varchar(100) NOT NULL, ItemDescription Varchar(255) NULL, Quantity Int NOT NULL, EntryDate Datetime NOT NULL).
D.Use TIMESTAMP data type.
Give the suitable answer for the below question and explain the answer.
1.You have designed the database for a Web site (or online ticketing agency) that is used to purchase concert tickets. During a ticket purchase, a buyer view a list of available tickets, decides whether to buy the tickets, and then attempts to purchase the tickets. This list of available tickets is retrieved in a cursor.
For popular concerts, thousands of buyers might attempt to purchase tickets at the same time. Because of the potentially high number of buyers at any one time, you must allow the highest possible level of concurrent access to the data. How should you design the cursor?
(A). Create a cursor within an explicit transaction, and set the transaction isolation level to REPEATABLE READ.
(B). Create a cursor that uses optimistic concurrency and positioned updates. In the cursor, place the positioned UPDATE statements within an explicit transaction.
(C). Create a cursor that uses optimistic concurrency. In the cursor, use UPDATE statements that specify the key value of the row to be updated in the WHERE clause, and place the UPDATE statements within an implicit transaction.
(D). Create a cursor that uses positioned updates. Include the SCROLL_LOCKS argument in the cursor definition to enforce pessimistic concurrency. In the cursor, place the positioned UPDATE statements within an implicit transaction.

Hi,
I'm trying to write a "GetQuote" procedure with a single @Quantity parameter. The purpose of the query is to sum the total cost (price * quantity) of a given (quantity) given the available "Sale" items. The sale table has the following structure:
[SellOrderID] [uniqueidentifier] DEFAULT (newid()),
[OrderDate] [datetime] DEFAULT (getdate()),
[UserID] [nvarchar](50) ,
[SellPrice] [float] ,
[SellQuantity] [int] ,
[QuantRemaining] [nchar](10) NULL,
**QuantRemaining is the sell quantity remaining after existing partial trades on the Sell Order - intentionally denormalised.
A given quantity may be satisfied by multiple 'Sell Orders' and these should be processed from the lowest price first.
e.g. give the following:
SellOrderID QuantRemaining Price
A 100 $2.00
B 300 $3.00
C 200 $1.75
D 350 $2.50
GetQuote 400 should return:
Sum((200*$1.75)+(100*$2.00)+(100*$2.50))
I am relatively new to the DB game and am having problems creating a SQL statement to do this. If anyone has a solution for this it would be greatly appreciated.

For some reason I can't reply from within your message.
Make sure you have the same version of SQLserver and service pack on the SQL Server and the workstation you are trying to set up the package from, this is error due to different versions.
Your comand should look like: dtsrun /~S.... /~U ..... /~P ....

Hello
I have created a very simple DTS package to transfer data from one database to another on the same server. I am able to successfully execute the package from DTS. But if i try to schedule the package and run it from SQL agent it fails. The job that is created by the SQL agent appears as follows -
'DTSRun /~Z0x2939C85E61C391613034D42DC85BA5E18B1E12D06DC31F 242542405E07594E436B58219AC124F29B80EDEB464ACB52BA 977BF7A0E59BE9C183507AF7CDA9EB1033C1E04009EC5D4467 E1955FB83FA31BC185F4D4398F51F008BDE6677D23F9C5571A 4C3010B0ED1943C234'
and the error message i get is invalid switch .... DTS command invalid options

Hi all,
Nobody helped me on other SQL forums, I hope here people are better. Here is my problem : I'm trying to uninstall replication before to re-install it (2 servers working on Windows NT and SQL 6.5 SP5). On the publisher server, I chose Server/Replication Configuration/Uninstall Publishing, but then, I'm not able to re-install publication, as the 'Install Publishing' option is disabled. I've found somewhere on the web that I had to remove the distribution option from the system, which disables replication, with the sp_ServerOption stored procedure :
sp_ServerOption "myserver", "dist", false
then I've deleted the distribution database, but all this didn't change anything, the 'Install Publishing' option is still disabled. How can I get the option enabled ?
Thanks in advance if you can help me. Sorry for the English, it's not my native language.
I have a view based on few tables okay
I have a query that gives me document details of various revisions
Now i also get the latest rev of those if i use a MAX() in my Query
Now a case where i have say
Docu Numb - Revi - Received Date
Document1 - rev0 - 10/2004
Document1 - rev1 - 11/2004
Document1 - rev2 - 12/2004
Document1 - rev3 - 01/2005
Document1 - rev4 - 02/2005
Document1 - rev5 - 03/2005
Document1 - rev6 - 04/2005
Document1 - rev7 - 05/2005
If i query for latest it gives Document1 - rev7
And if i filter for a month of 12/2004
If i query for latest it should give Document1 - rev2
Now i need to get a filter with latest as rev2,
plus i also need as a indication of actual latest as rev 7
using a query
How do i do that ...
Coz when i use filter for a month and Max then it
does not consider rev7 for that filter and skip the record
and if i try to filter only as per month .. i get a wrong info
as latest rev2 which is not a true info as per database records.
May i possibly get both ... filtered info as per specific month and
also a rev info as what is the latest for a spec document.
Just i need to know is that possible .. in SQl using a query
Any more info needed please mail me on

Hunting high and low for the definitive answer to this query.
I need a system to enable the import of a csv file (trypically contacts exported from Outlook) into a SQL Server table unique to that user through a .aspx page.
At the first and most basic level I need to simply get the data into a table.
The ultimate goal though is to have a fully functioning system whereby the user can sync between the csv file and the database enabling them to upload the data for the first time then only update changes subsequently (new records/changes to existing records) etc.
1. Does anyone have code that does such a thing?
2. Does anyone know of a component/utility that can be purchased off the shelf.
3. Is there someone with the capacity to write such a module?
regards in anticipation
Andy.
