Does anyone know how to remove SQL utilities off the server manually.
When I run the setup.exe from the SQL CD to remove SQL from server that option button is
shaded, I try reinstalling SQL utilities and then I try removing and still it won`t let me?
Help!!!
Would like to know whether SQL server has the utilities do the following and the command to activiate the followings: - limit the no. of login (ie to set the number of failed_login_attempts) - password_reuse_max (eg password A can only be reuse 3 times)
I am going to upgrade a SQL server 6.5 box to SQL7.0. The 16 bit-client utilities are a prerequisite because there is a 16-bit application and requires some of the database libraries. My question is how does SQL7.0 deal with 16-bit application? In my case, could I upgrade the SQL6.5 box to SQL7.0?
Does anyone have any palm utilities, or reference docs, urls - I am administering SQL7 and would like info on Palm-3, using as a references. I have ModileDB installed, with Oracle Recovery references, but could not find SQL.
I am looking for good utilities that document MS SQL table schema, indexes, layouts etc. I am currently looking at SQL auditor, but this product does not give me table schema or any kind of device revisions. I recently was given several SQL servers that have not been documented in any way.
thanks
ps SQL auditor gets a B+ in my book. Let me know what you think
I heard from a guy that the client utilities (Enterprice Manager and Query Analyser) that are on the Sql Server 2000 CD can be fetched separatly from Microsoft and that they can be deployed with MSDE to a potential customer.
Is that correct?
And if it is, where can I obtain those client apps?
We are looking for utilities to help us manage DTS packages. Specifically to help us track changes in the packages in a fairly fine-grained fashion; several layers deeper than the version listing under package info, for example. Think of it as an object-oriented diff utility if you will, something that can report on changes in a package very specifically; for example, we need to know that step 4 of a package is a SQL widget and the text has changed between versions, and what the changes are. Converting the package to a VB project & versioning the source text doesn't work, for several reasons too complicated to state here.
Is there aything like this available? We would rather buy than build, but I haven't seen anything like this yet. If anyone has experience with such a utility I would appreciate knowing about this. Thanks.

Folks,I work on a system which is growing rapidly, with the number oftransactions we process growing on a daily basis. While this is goodnews or the business, maintenance is starting to become an issue as thedatabase is the backend for a website which cannot be down for alengthy period of time.While I do defrag the indexes, periodically the indexes do need to berebuilt. When this happens, the process locks pages and transactionsstart getting bounced out.Are their any third party utilities which will rebuild an indexwithout this locking occuring? Any help in pointing me in the rightdirection would be appreciated.
I would like to know about third party tools available or sites where I can get some evaluations on this tools to load balance our Clustered SQL 2000 on Windows 2000. Thanks for the help In Advance.
I have written a utility that checks our stored procedures forpotentially incorrect code (eg = null as opposed to is null, unusedvariables/parameters etc). It also ensures that parameters/variablesetc match our naming conventions and data types/sizes are the sames asthe corresponding type in the database (if appropriate)Are there any other utilities that do this sort of thing?
I have large stored procedures in SQL Server 2005 that often get updated. Sometimes it is very difficult to recognize how one change could impact the overall results. I would like to have some sample input that I could test during changes and see it compare the data results before & after my changes. This would help me quickly identify if the results are fine to pass through.
So basically I would like an easy way to compare the results of 2 stored procedures. Any suggestions or utilites that would help me do this?
I find the CLR integration very handy and I would like to use it in the proper way but I need some helps because is not easy to find "best practice" programming info.
This is what I have to do: from a "period" coming from the DB I have to compute start/End date and save them in the DB.
The computation involves regular expression and several functions that makes several calculations on date type variable.
I have created my UserDefinedFunction class that contains the TV function to return a row with 2 fields (startdate,enddate). Now my question is: what is the base place to define my utilities functions that perform the computation? In the same class or it is better to add a new class?
For example I have created a module that contains all the Regular expressions patterns.

SQL Upgrading to VS05 Pro SP1/SqlExpress (from VS03 Pro/SQL MSDE)
Question 1) €“ is there a way to tell which version of the SQL Express was installed? I think it is €œSQL Server 2005 Express Edition With Advance Services€?, but don€™t know how to confirm that.
Question 2) - SQL Server Management Studio Express, Registered Servers, it shows : Database Engine sqlexpress (note the lower case) If I right click and choose €œPreviously Registered Servers€?, it shows a message that I will be displaying SQL Server 2000 (i.e. MSDE) server names, and it shows SQL Server Group SQLEXPRESS (note the upper case) CSOLUTION
I wish to completely remove CSOLUTION (in MSDE you would uninstall it from the Control Panel), but right clicking and choosing the delete option does nothing (it does not delete it). Deleting SQL Server Group also has no affect either. How do I remove CSOLUTION ?
Question 3) - In the VS05 program, the SQL connection string includes €œData Source=.SQLEXPRESS€¦.€? (NOTE UPPER CASE) Why do I have a lower case and an upper case listed above? Starting/stopping one sqlexpress/ SQLEXPRESS does the same to the other. Don€™t I wan€™t to complete delete anything under SQL Server Group since it represents SQL Server 2000 (i.e. MSDE) server names? SQL Server 2000 and CSOLUTION have been uninstalled from this machine.
I am using sql reporting service 2005 with .NET 2.0. I have created a custom dll file for report and put this dll in appropriate folder. Report is running fine in designer project. but when I am trying to view this report after uploading to report manager it give me an error like
Failed to load expression host assembly. Details: The type initializer for 'CableReporting.Utilities' threw an exception. (rsErrorLoadingExprHostAssembly)Is there any solution for that?

An unknown person at a client's site installed IIS on a production SQL Server. I would like to remove it (it's not being used and the service is shut down). Does anyone know of any troubles with uninstalling IIS? Will the removal also hose SQL?
Hope all is going well ...... I have a question for you ...

I have to install SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 on a server to do a Share Point upgrade. After the upgrade I want to remove the SQL 2000 instance.
My question is, has anyone done this and what, if any, issues did you have. Does it matter what order they are installed in? Will I break my 2005 instance when I remove the 2000 instance?
Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!
I have a two tables containing customers invoices, one for the invoices header (ie: customer #, invoice date,... KEY: invoice # + invoice date) and another for the details of the invoices (ie: each invoice line details KEY: invoice # + line #). I need to periodically remove invoices older than a certain timeframe (ex: all invoices older than 48 months).
I want to remove the nulls from the result set so the result is 1 line. Code and results are below:
SELECT CustomerNumber, (case when yearseq = 2012 then isnull(sum(mainPower),0)+isnull(sum(sidePower),0)+isnull(Sum(leftPower),0) +isnull(Sum(netappPower),0)+isnull(Sum(rightPower),0)+isnull(Sum(lowerPower),0) end) as '2012', (case when yearseq = 2013 then
[Code] ....
What can I do to my code to remove the Nulls to the entire result is just 1 line?
I installed SQL Server Express trail for 3 times each with new instance. Now I came to know that I need to have a default instance. I un-installed the SQL Server Express and tried to install it again. It still says I have installed instances and if I select default instance the option buttons are un-checked and disabled. I tried to delete all the folders related to the SQL Server installationa dn tried but still I see the same thing. Please help me in istalling the default instance.
I'm creating a table using a XML string and a stored procedure to the SQL Server. I'm having problems in just one field, it is a nvarchar(10) type. This field's string XML Schema is also nvharchar(10) type. It is called CodCanalPrice.
Today, the only values this field can assume are AA or BB or CC, (...), ZZ or (space)A, (space)B, (...), (space)C. Note that (space) is actually a space character. They all have 2 characters.
The XML data string of one data row is showed below:
When the statement is executed, SQL server removes the first space (so in this case it is updated to A without space in the table). The others values that don't have an space before like AA or BB are updated fine. All others fields are also updated correctly.
So far I tried to replace the first space for  but SQL Server doesn't accept this tag.
I have found a bunch of duplicate records in our housing database that ideally I need to delete.There are two tables that I need to remove data from ih_cml_log_entry and ih_cml_log_notes. There is no unique identifier between the tables for a log entry. So I have had to join on the person_ref, log_seq and the date/time of entry.How do I go about deleting the data - I've used the script below to identify what I need to delete -
SELECT * FROM ( select cml.person_ref, cml.open_date + open_time as 'datetime',cml.open_user,cml.log_type ,ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY cml.person_ref, cml.open_date + cml.open_time,cml.open_user,cml.log_type ORDER BY (SELECT 0)) AS RowNo ,n.note FROM ih_cml_log_entry cml
I've look at several different methods for removing leading zero's from a column but I need to remove trailing data from a VARCHAR column. For some reason, the old database saved the time along side the date in my client's app.
For example:
The old database format "2015-07-28 00:00:00"
I need the data in this column in the new database to only be the date "2015-07-28", there are alot of rows with this issue.
Is there a query I can run to remove the 00-00-00 from all of the rows? Some of the fields actually have a time in there like this: 2015-07-28 12:15:35, with this one, I don't think it's going to be easy but if I could at least remove the 00-00-00 from all the rows that have it, that would be a good start.
I have a varchar field which contains some Greek characters (α, β, γ, etc...) among the regular Latin characters. I need to replace these characters with a word (alpha, beta, gamma etc...). When I try to do this, I find that it is also replacing some of the Latin characters.
Sometimes at the end of a project you'll end up with unused Tables,Stored Procs, Functions, and Views.Since there is not something like a 'SELECT' trigger ... what is thebest way for telling what is not being used by your solution? To turnon some kind of tracing?Any ideas?Thanks,Kelly GreerJoin Bytes!change nospam to yahoo
