Dear all
I would like to produce a report on the data i have in my database probably in a pdf or excel or word document. What i have is SQL Server 2000 with .NET 1.1 platform.
Is there anything out there i could use?
I have done some work on reporting services but thats with SQL server 2005, but now i have to go a bit back.
Any advice?
cheers
Hi,
Sorry for the wide distribution.
I'm trying to find any useful whitepapers about how to effectively build and operate a disaster recovery site at a remote location for SQL Server 2000. Does anyone know where to find such information?
I also know that one good option for my customer is using the Mirroring feature of SQL Server 2005. What are the other options? Is Replication an effective one for a mission-critical database (online banking)?
Thanks in advance
I'm new to SQL, so please forgive my rather primitive question...
If I build, for example, the Portal Starter Kit using MSDE, can I upload it to a host that supports SQL 2000 without having to make any special configurations? In other words, are MSDE and SQL 2000 interchangeable, for the most part?
I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.

Hi,
I need to develop a Report using SSRS 2005, wher SQL Server 2000 as Database. Can we do that ?
If yes how to Create Data Source for it ?
our Network has both SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 Database Servers.
Hi All
Just a quick question; Can SQL Server 2000 reports use SQL Server 2005 database as a data source?
Early Thanks,
Salman Shehbaz.
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

Hi does anyone know how to do the above with out going through reportserver url?
Preferably by using a cmd tool ? such rs.exe

I am building a site, I'd like to use SQL server, but once the site is finished it i for a organisation who do a lot of community voluntary work. So to keep the costs down I plan to install on their server a copy of MSDE as the datasource.
I know it is a simple question, but if I build the site using SQL server and deploy onto MSDE will the site still work?
Dear AllI am very new to MS SQL Server and I am wondering is there some toolwhich would allow me to build pivot tables in SQL more easily. At themoment writing a query can be quite challenging and difficult.Is there any software which allows you to do it more intuitively andgives you some visual feedback about query you are building?I would be very grateful for any help with this.wujtehacjusz
View 2 Replies View RelatedAn example of what I am talking about is the employee table in the Adventureworks database. This has employeeID and then ManagerID, ManagerID just being the EmployeeID of the person whom the original reports to.
I know the queries for querying this type of data and even making recursive common table expressions. What I cannot seem to find is how one goes about BUILDING said table. I see all sorts of examples where people are just doing INSERT table VALUES () manually to load the table. The problem is, I need to create a table that has potentially thousands of records.
It will essentially be a dimensional map. Don't even get me started as to they why, I will just suffice to say that is what the client and project want . I have a process that will do this now, but it is not very dynamic and very hard coded. To me, there seems like there should be some sort of standardized methodology for handling this.
Hi,
I would like advice regarding what hardware to use for a SQL Server 2005 for use in a development environment. I am the only developer and user of the database.
I develop at home, and currently use one PC, to develop the software. My PC is Athlon XP 4000, 2 Gig RAM, 1 x 160gb HD . I am developing an asp.net website along with a variety of data interface applications in C# - all on top of SQL Server 2005. This environment works/worked fine until I started dealing with a lot more data.
I now have 2 databases, each about 30 gig in size (with most of the data in a a couple of tables in each database). When I am importing data or running the website or doing intensive queries or doing sql updates that change millions of rows, I am understandably hitting performance problems. I have had to throttle SQL Server 2005 to only use 400mb, as I have so many other development applications that are open...... Everything is slowing to a halt, and I dont think SQL Server is very happy.
So, I am looking to build or buy a cheap machine to run SQL Server 2005, and take the load off my current PC. However I only have a budget of about £300/$560 - maybe a bit more at a push (I could possibly upgrade in the future).
I could do something like below, if I am going to buy a machine
Acer T180
Sempron 3200
512mb (i would upgrade to 2GB)
80gb hard disk
Or I could build my own? If I do, what should I skimp on and where should I invest more. I.e. should I get the cheapest processor possible, and get a decent harddrive or 2? Should I raid 0 a couple of small drives? Or have one drive for data and one for the transaction logs? Or should I have one drive, and spend more on RAM?
Any help would be greatly appreciated....

I am converting a report from Crystal 8.5 to Crystal 10 and receiving this error message:
Query Engine Error: '2001:[microsoft][odbc sql server]string or binary data would be truncated.'
I am using a stored proc in SQL 2000 that returns a text field for the output.
This has completely confused me - any help will be appreciated.
Within a trigger, I'm trying to create a unique table name (using the NEWID()) which I can store the data that is found in the inserted and deleted tables.
Declare @NewID varchar(50) = Replace(convert(Varchar(50),NEWID()),'-','')
Declare @SQLStr varchar(8000)
Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)
I get the following error: Invalid object name 'inserted'
I know I can do:
Select * into #inserted from inserted
Set @SQLStr= 'Select * into [TMPIns' + @newID + '] from #inserted'
Exec (@SQLStr)
But I don't want to use TempDB as these tables can become big and I also feel that it is redundant. Is there a way to avoid the creation of #inserted?
As painful as it is proving out to be, I am trying to create a single package that is vendor neutral between SQL Server and Oracle.
At first, I thought that as long as I was going OLEDB in and out, and I ensured that my SQL syntax was generic enough, I'd be OK.
Well, not exactly. I am finding there is more to this. Specifically, metadata gets generated differently based on the source/targets.
For example, on an OLE DB Source task, datatypes will vary (i.e. NUMBER in Oracle vs Int in SQL). The job here is to pick the common denominator for the SSIS specific type. Time consuming, but doable, I think.
Another issue is on an OLE DB Desitnation. If you choose Table for Data Access Mode, this value gets written to the dtsx XML file. So, even when both RDBMS have the same schema (which is an obvious prereq) if choosing SQL Server "dbo.DimTable" will get written to the file and for Oracle "SCHEMA.DIMTABLE" will get written.
So, I am am wondering, what is the best way to address this?
My inital thought was using a dtsConfig file (which I am already using extensively) and set the target table names accordingly. This approach would have the added benefit of allowing for post-deployment configuration changes should a table name change, for example.
This section of the dtsx file shows the values of interest:
Code Snippet
<component id="138" name="OLE_DST_DimTable" componentClassID="{E2568105-9550-4F71-A638-B7FE42E66922}" description="OLE DB Destination" localeId="-1" usesDispositions="true" validateExternalMetadata="True" version="4" pipelineVersion="0" contactInfo="OLE DB Destination;Microsoft Corporation;Microsoft SqlServer v9; (C) 2005 Microsoft Corporation; All Rights Reserved; http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4">
<properties>
<property'>http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4">http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4">
<properties>
<property id="139" name="CommandTimeout" dataType="System.Int32" state="default" isArray="false" description="The number of seconds before a command times out. A value of 0 indicates an infinite time-out." typeConverter="" UITypeEditor="" containsID="false" expressionType="None">0</property>
<property id="140" name="OpenRowset" dataType="System.String" state="default" isArray="false" description="Specifies the name of the database object used to open a rowset." typeConverter="" UITypeEditor="" containsID="false" expressionType="None">"ORASCHEMA"."DIMTABLE"</property>
<!-- More Properies -->
</component>
Ideally, I'd like configuration time control over the name attribute of the component element (highlighted) so that I can set the value of the property element with the OpenRowset attribute type (also highlighted). This way, presumambly as long as datatypes were generic enough, the mapping would just work.
But, in walking through the dtsConfig tree, I don't see these elements or attributes exposed.
I would sincerely appreciate any suggestions on how to accomplish this.

Can you pl advise how I shud go abt converting these reports from RS 2000 TO RS2005 .
Thanks.

Is it possible to deploy a SSIS package without building an Integration Services Catalog on the server?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
i've used sql 2000 to create reports. Now i have almost 100 reports with lot of history (snapshots). Now i've developed the same reports in 2005 (basically upgraded the reports). If i upload the new reports, the 2000 history will be lost. Is there anyway that i can upgrade to 2005 and save the history ??
Thanks
Hi all,
i got through the installation of the Sql Server 2000 Reporting services evaluation and managed to deploy a couple reports and a shared data source to my reporting server on my DEV box.
Now im trying to view the reports i made online and they never render, all i get is the animated gif that always says "Report is being generated". This goes on and on with apparently no end in sight.
I CAN preview the reports in VS 2003 and they render almost instantly. there are no differences that may affect the connection to the database between my development computer (with VS 2003) and the server that the reporting server is on.
Anyone have any ideas as to why this may be happening ?
thanks,

Is it possible to have a report automatically export the results to Excel, when the report is generated? ...rather than having to select the format and click Export? .Pl let me know-Thanks.

Hi
I've never done this before and I have all kinds of issues conflicting in my head (search rank, noise words, injection attacks ..etc). simply i need to search several columns in a table in the database using one search text (just like the simple search in Google). if multiple words are you used then the search should search for each of them. also manage to ignore noise words and other issues.
what is the best way of doing this? I looked at FTS in SQL 2000 but didn't know how to handle all the above mentioned issues. this should be simple, right? but i have been looking all day. I guess i don't know what im looking for because i've never implemented a web search b4.
please help
p.s. I know t-sql and asp.net/c# well.
I am not very experienced with stored procs and I'm attempting to write my first one. I am writing a search page via aspx and that page will call my proc and depending on the input parameters, the proc will return the search results.

Can anyone tell me a way to make the following work (input params left out to conserve space)?

Hi,
I am having some problems trying to build an sql statement from more than one statement.
Here is the statement

Values (@table_ID,' ,'NULL,', name from payatwork..syscolumns where id in (
select id from payatwork..sysobjects where name like 'Employee_Profile')
order by colorder, ')'
What I am finding is that the bracket at the end of the statement is not appearing - how do I append statements to the end of this sql statement (i've tried various combinations of the + sign and the comma without success.

I'm in the midst of planning how to build an NT box to host SQL 7.0 and was wondering if there is any advantage to segregating the RAID 5 Array (5 x 18GB drives) into numerous *logical* partitions to separate database and log files (I can't see what advantage there would be if the disks are all on the same array, but..)
If anyone has any pointers or links to recommended NT configurations for hosting SQL, I'd appreciate hearing them.
TIA,

Help Please - JMail - SQL SPs - Confirmation Email
I'm at the last stage of my current project and an totally stuck.
I'm trying to build the body of a order processing request email. For security reasons I wish to use a SP to build and send the email. (therefore no sensitive data gets passed to the client)
I have the JMail Object running properly on the server. It collects and sends the email in the normal course of the transaction from the client. Problem is that I cannot figure out how to properly build the body of the email in the SP.
I'm looking to do add the following to a single SQL SP variable to stuff in the Jmail Object to be sent. The content of the variable should look something linke the following:
-----------------------------------------
"Order placed:" = orders.date + '<cr>?'
customers.name<cr>
orders.shippingaddress<cr>
orders.billingaddress<cr>
/*loop each record where
/*customerID and orderID match passed arguments
/***loopstart***
OrderDetails.SKU <tab> Product.Productname <tab><tab> Orderdetails.Qty <tab> OrderDetails.Price<cr>
/***loopend***
Ordertotal.GrandTotal
--------------------------------------
Any help greatly appreciated.

I am working with SQL server 2000. The database is installed in my machine. Now I have got the ".ldf" and ".mdf" file pertaining to a database from someother server.
Is it possible to build the database present in the above said files in my server.
NOTE : I dont have a direct access to the remote server from where the above said files were obtained (otherwise I think the DTS utility would have come in handy).
Hello,
This will probably be trivial and basic for most, but I'm having a hard time trying to figure out the best way to do a SELECT statement. First, let me explain what I have:
Two tables:
Table 1:
Orders
Some of the fields:
ID
PropID
WorkOrderNum
OrderDesc
DateCompleted
Table 2:
OrderDetail
ID
OrderID
TenantName
As you probably have realized, the OrderID in my 'OrderDetail' table corresponds to the ID field in my 'Orders' table. The 'Orders' table contains the order header information, while the OrderDetail contains line items for that order - 1 line item per record.
Here is my SQL statement to retrieve an order when searching by the 'Order Description' (Orders.OrderDesc):
SELECT PropertyLocations.PropertyLocation, Orders.ID, Orders.PropID, Orders.WorkOrderNum, Orders.OrderDesc, Orders.DateCompleted FROM PropertyLocations, ORDERS WHERE PropertyLocations.ID = Orders.PropID AND OrderDesc LIKE '%lds%'
Ok, so now for the 'big' question/problem: I also need to be able to search the 'Tenant Name' field from the 'OrderDetail' table. So what is the best/most efficient way of doing that? The other stipulation about that is that there can be (and usually is) several records/line items (in the OrderDetail table, of course) that contains the same (or similar) data, but I don't want duplicates. And when I say duplicates, all I care about is retrieving a few fields (as you can see from my SQL statement) from the 'Orders' table. Another way to describe what I want is that I want all unique orders that have a 'TenantName' in the 'OrderDetail' table that matches the search criteria. My brain just isn't wanting to figure this out right now, so I was hoping someone could help me out.
thanks.
