Reference For SQL SERVER 2000
Jul 27, 2007
Hello there everyone!!
I've just joined this community and already feel alot better in doing so!!
My question is aimed at SQL Server 2000. Part ofmy job role has swicthed to SQL Developer to Database Administrator.
To learn SQL Server 2000 (latest version available to me) I wanted to find out about courses (based in London, UK) which help teach along the lines of the following topics:
Fundamental concepts
SQL Server installation and upgrade
Database management
Backup and recovery
Alerts and jobs
Security
Replication
Monitoring SQL Server
Converting and migrating data
This is what I understand to be prior importance for the role.
My main question to you guys: Can anyone recommend a reference book which is a good desktop companion which covers all of these topics to detailed depth??
I'm running SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2003 Server. I'm aware some books may be old, but the later they are the better?
I've studied SQL at uni, covering RDMS, OLAP, Data manipulation, Data Definition. But now its to be applied to SQL SERVER 2000
Any suggestions please?
Thank you for your support

There are between 10 and 15 books in the set. I recall an index, developer's book, administrator's book, and two T-SQL reference books. I don't remember what the other books were. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I had these books at my disposal at my last place of employment and I'm trying to get the same books here. If this sounds familiar to anyone, can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks

With SQL 2000 and MSDE 2000, I only had to put a "." for the server name in a connection string. Now with SQL Express 2005 I have to acually reference the server instance name ".SQLEXPRESS".
Why is this?
Also, when running the command line tools for running scripts, I have to include the parameter "-S MACHINESQLEXPRESS" in the command line where as before I never used the -S parameter at all.
Anyone know why? I am curious because it is going to cause an impact on our upgrades for the client.
My only answer to these questions is that there is no SQL Agent running anymore.
Thanks in advance,
Scott

Hi,
I'm trying to insert the Url for the image control in the Report designer. As per your article there should be an option (radio button) in Image Wizard to use set the URL for the reports. But i do not get that option at all. All i get is these options
a) - Embedded
b) - Project
c) - Database
I do not get a URL option.
My problem is that i have a URL path to the images that are stored on a Web Server. I would like to this path to be the source of the Image control. I can't make it work. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
GJ

I am working in SSRS 2000, and I have a report using a table. In the footer of the table I want to do a calcuation. I have a textbox in the table called "SumAmtCurrent", which is a sum value for a field in my dataset. I have another field in my dataset, "TotalRevCurrent", and I would like to take this second field, subtract the value in the textbox "SumAmtCurrent", and have the result in the footer of the table. I tried to reference the textbox using ReportItems!SumAmtCurrent.Value - but that gives me the following error
"...The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox7€™ refers to the report item €˜SumAmtCurrent€™. Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope..."
Is there a way I can get this total into my report?
Thanks in advance!

I'm creating a trigger in an Sql Server Project that needs to execute some code. Is it possible to reference any assembly? When I click "add reference" to the project I cannot browse to an assembly.
What are the limitations of this feature? I was under the impression you could execute any .net code.

I have a DLL coded in C# which has a one Function which returns 0 or 1 depends on the operation. I am using SQL 2005 and same functionality I want to reuse in SQL. So I have decided to use new functionality of 2005 CLR integration to avoid code redudancy.
I will create a function and that function will call internally this DLL and return value. But my problem is here that I am not able to set a reference to the C# dll. I am getting messages Sql Server Projects can refer only other sql Server projects.
I think there must be some other way to set reference. Please let me know if any one know how to achieve.

I have created a job which performs linked server inserts, the job is scheduled to run every 15min. The Job inserts to a local linked server, some data from one of our log tables. That linked server inturn gathers more data from other servers and exports that data to another application for further processing.
My problem is that I need to reference local machine (DNS Name) as a variable which can be passed along with the linked server insert. If I can get the Server name dynamically I can run this as a remote job on 2 or 20 or 200 servers and It will give the log data and the name of the source server.
QUESTION: How Do I reference the server name from within TSQL as a variable.

I have the following script -
SELECTDISTINCTLOC.[place-ref] AS 'Place Ref'
,PLA.address1 AS 'Address1'
,PLA.address2 AS 'Address2'
,PLA.address3 AS 'Address3'
,PLA.address4 AS 'Address4'
,PLA.address5 AS 'Address5'
,PLA.[post-code] AS 'Postcode'
,LOC.[location-sts] AS 'Location Status'
[Code] ....
Above is a small example.
As you can see 13 Alamein Avenue is listed twice. This is because it pulls back the former and the current tenancy. I don't want to exclude former tenancies - so I want to pull back the most recent Tenancy Reference for each Place Reference.

I am trying to eliminate a scalar function by rewriting a view. I currently have a structure similar to the following:
With FirstQuery as (SELECT Trial, SBOI, TBOI,
FROM TU
WHERE SBOI Between 22000 and 22999 and TBOI < 10000),
strt as (SELECT TOP 1 TimeOfEvent, Trial, SBOI, TBOI
From TU ORDER BY TimeOfEvent),
[Code] ....
What I trying to do is for the Trial, SBOI, and TBOI in FirstQuery, find the Start Time and Stop Time. TimeOfEvent is an integer in milliseconds. Say I have the following data:
TrialIDÂ Â Â Â SBOIÂ Â Â Â TBOIÂ Â Â Â TimeOfEvent
AÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 22000Â Â 5000Â Â Â Â Â 5
AÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 22000Â Â 5000Â Â Â Â Â 10
BÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 22000Â Â Â 5000Â Â Â Â Â 8
BÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 22000Â Â 5000Â Â Â Â Â 15
So the DISTINCTÂ output would be:
    Trial    SBOI    TBOI    StartTime    StopTime
    A        22000  5000     5                 10
    B        22000  5000    8                 15
The problem I am having is that strt is selecting the smallest time period. It doesn't seem to care what the current record in cte is. I thought that by using my joins, it would make it select smallest TimeOfEvent for the Trial, SBOI, and TBOI that are selected in cte. Obviously that is not the case. So, I was trying to add a WHERE to the strt Select Statement such asÂ
WHERE TrialID = FirstQuery.TrialID and SBOI = FirstQuery.SBOI and TBOI = FirstQuery.TBOI but it isn't working either.
What can I do?

I'm trying to update a table in MyDB1 with a value in MyDB2 on the same SQL server (2000)
UPDATE MyDB1.dbo.Users
SET MyDB1.dbo.Users.InstantASP_UserID = MyDB2.dbo.InstantASP_Users.UserID
FROM MyDB2
INNER JOIN dbo.aspnet_Membership a ON a.UserId = MyDB1.dbo.Users.UserID
WHERE MyDB2.dbo.InstantASP_Users.EmailAddress = a.Email
I don't want to have to create a linked server. It's on the same box.
I'm getting Invalid object name 'MyDB2'.

We have a stored procedure that makes a decision to pull records from one of two servers.
If one of these servers became unavailable but was no longer queried would the stored procedure still work? Doesn't SQL recompile stored procedures periodically?
Something like this:
If @ServerAIsDown=1
begin
select * from ServerB.dbo.MyTable
end
else
begin
select * from ServerA.dbo.MyTable
end

I have a table with constantly changing data - stock.
I want to start monitoring the value of stock at the end of each month. I can do this with a simple query, export the results to Excel and store on the network.
My question is:
Are there better ways to do this with SQL Server?
I thought of a monthly "job" that does the query and outputs to a file. (Need to be able to look at each month separately though for trend monitoring.)
Then wondered, if I should have an extra table to store the data and write queries on that in the future?

I am not new to the SQL Server world, but am somewhat new to the SQL Server 2005 world. I am just getting into the reporting tool. By just messing around for about an hour or so, I was able to get what I wanted somewhat. Basically, I'd like to get up to speed on the reporting side of things fairly quickly. So I am looking at some books, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on any.
Here is a few that caught my eye:
-MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services by Brian Larson
-MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services for Dummies
-Professional SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services by Paul Turley
-The Rational Guide to SQL Server Reporting Services
I am thinking the 1st two would probably be my best bet, but wanted to get you folks suggestions.
Let me know as soon as you can as I am planning on going to the book store tonight or this weekend.
Thanks in Advance!!!

OLEDB provider SQLOLEDB does not contain table "<DatabaseName>"."<owner>"."<tableName>"

Has any one else encountered this problem before ?

I get this error when trying to alter a stored procedure that has an insert statement referencing a new linked server I created:
INSERT INTO [servername].databasename.dbo.DirectReport
...
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Procedure Get_Direct_Pay_Move_Data, Line 17
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'.
I added Administrators and my logon to the permissions of my linked server but still get this error when it tries to save my stored proc...the one which has that insert.

We are experiencing a problem with Sql Server 2000 linking to anAccess 97 file. We have two machines that link to this .mdb file, andwe recently upgraded one to newer hardware, SP3a, MDAC 2.8, etc. Thelink on this upgraded machine no longer works, giving this message:Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error.[OLE/DB provider returned message: Cannot open a database created witha previous version of your application.]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].The link on the older machine still works. We decided to tryconverting a copy of the file to Access 2000 to see if the newerpatches/drivers/whatever no longer supported 97. We set up a link onboth machines to this file, and they both work. However, on theupgraded machine, the following error is receievedServer: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error.[OLE/DB provider returned message: System resource exceeded.]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'ICommandText::Execute returned 0x80004005: ].when making 1-3 connections to the the linked server, while the oldermachine supports at least 7 simultaneous queries connecting to thelinked server and still hasn't produced that error.Does anyone have any idea if there is a known issue with linking toAccess 97/2000 files under MDAC 2.8, Jet 4.0, etc? Any light anyonecan shine on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

My objective is to use Enterprise Manager to move (copy) my SQL db from the server to my windows desktop computer.
I downloaded MSDE and am having trouble installing it, no doubt because I do not understand the documentaion (ReadMeMSDE2000A.htm).
When I try to run setup, I get that message that says:
"A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply the same."
Considering my purpose, do I need a "strong" SA password? If not, how do I get around it? If yes, how do I set it up?
I am a Mac user so I have poor windows skills, please make it as painless as possible for me, thanks!
