I get the following error.
Err.Description - "Rowset does not support fetching backward."
Err. Number - -2147217884
Can somebody tell me the reason behind this error.
My Reasearch: I have got to know that I get this error in the line of code recordset.MoveLast in My code.
My Code environment: I have built an SQL Query string which calls the Strored procedure with one parameter (parameter tyoe is string type). I have attached the SP code below.
and SP contains the call for querying other database in the same server using OPENQUERY command.
and the VB code contains code as Recordset.MoveLast. (Error is generated here and Recordset.RecordCount is also -1)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @sSQL VARCHAR (1000)
SET @sSQL = '''SELECT *
FROM VW_JOKE
WHERE JOKE_ID = ''' + '''' + @sRMS_Status + '''' +
''' ORDER BY JOKE_NO''
EXEC ( 'SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(lnk_joke__cat,' + @sSQL + ')' )
END
My Questions:
1). Is there any problem in SP as I am using OpenQuery? I queries the SP and concluded that it generates result properly.
2). Is there any problem with the Recordset.MoveLast line? I am using adOpenKeyset, adLockReadOnly as parameters to my Recordset.Open command along with other parameters.
Let me know the corrective steps to be taken to get rid of this error.
Thanks in Advance for your valuable time

Reader Community I've just started hosting my newly created Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition web site. Unfortunately the Login group membership functions will not function correctly. Having contacted the web service hosting provider, They replied: "We do not support SQL express2005. The only way to use the extra functions of ASP.NET2 such as group membership is if it is using an SQL 2000 database to connect to. " Is it possible to design web sites with Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition that store membership details on an SQL 2000 database? I've just paid £88 approx. $140 for a years subscription, have I chosen the wrong web service hosting provider? Should I have designed the web site with a better web site design software tool that also makes designing membership login functionality easy, just as Microsoft Visual Web developer 2005 express edition? Look forward to all comments? Regards
I get the impression that osql (or somewhere in the sql processing) precompiles the entire script before it executes anything. In particular, this is a problem because it means you can't use IF statements to bracket new features in a script designed to be run on both old and new versions of SQL Server. I'm trying to handle an issue whereby I need to use "CREATE LOGIN" on SQL Server 2005 because I need to set CHECK_POLICY = OFF, and you can't do that with sp_addlogin. However, on SQL Server 2000, while I can't use CREATE LOGIN, I don't need to because the default password policy is such that the password being used does not fail without it (as it does in SQL Server 2005, and is why we need to set CHECK_POLICY), so I can simply use sp_addlogin to create the user w/o a CHEC_POLICY setting.
It appears however, due to the way that SQL is processed, it is impossible to create an SQL script of this nature that will work under both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005. I added code to check the Product Version, and can successfully bracket the code necessary with IF statements, but even though the IF statement would cause the CREATE LOGIN code to not be executed on SQL Server 2000, it errors anyway apparently because it is preparsing the script and of course, SQL Server 2000 doesn't have CREATE LOGIN. Consequently, checking Product Version is useless in this case. It looks like we'll have to do the version check outside of SQL and invoke script A for SQL Server 2000 and script B for SQL Server 2005.
Unless that is, I misunderstand the error I get from SQL Server 2000, or if there's some other way to compatibly do such a conditional. Here's an example script that runs fine under SQL Server 2005:
--------------- declare @ProductVersion as integer set @ProductVersion = cast(left(cast(serverproperty('productversion') as varchar(30)),1) as integer)
print 'Product Version = ' + cast(@ProductVersion as char)
IF @ProductVersion < 9 exec sp_addlogin 'testuser', 'fubar', 'master' IF @ProductVersion > 8 BEGIN CREATE LOGIN testuser WITH PASSWORD = 'fubar', CHECK_POLICY = OFF, DEFAULT_DATABASE = [master] END ----------------
On SQL Server 2000, @ProductVersion gets set to 8, but I get the following error:
Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Server TESTSVR, Line 10 Line 10: Incorrect syntax near 'LOGIN'.
We have two different machines in different locations running SQL2000. One was upgraded to SQL2005. The problem is we can't upgrade the other at the moment cause it is running SBS2003 (requires alot more planning), But we would like to get information from the computer running SQL2005. Is there a patch that can be obtained so that we can open the database created using SQL2005 in SQL2000? We desperately need the database and upgrading to SQL2005 with SBS2003 is not straight forward.
Does anyone know if the enhanced data types (character length up to 8,000 bytes for some types) and the increase in the number of tables used in joins are available when using the 65 backward compatibility mode?
As our application is going to be closed in few months and for testing purpose
we decided to continue running dts packages in SQL server 2005. As part of upgrade we are migrating all others( Databases, OLAP and Reporting Services). We have created SSAS 2005 cubes which we want to process using Analysis Services 2000 Processing Task in DTS. Is this possible? If not possible, Our organization need a confirmation from a Microsoft manual that it cannot.
The link about backward compatibility describes about using SQL 2005 datasources in DTS and editing Analysis Services Processing Task with SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services installed. However it does not mention anything about support for processing SSAS 2005 cubes with the help of Analysis Services 2000 Processing task. Would you please provide a link which gives a description about this.

I'm relatively new to SQL Server. I have spent some time in Enterprise Manager for our SQL Server 2000 instances. We are testing SQL Server 2005, and I found that I was able to register 2000 databases into the new SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.

I have used SSRS since the original SQL 2000 beta, so am pretty experienced with it.
I think there may be a bug in V2.0 (2005) that did not exist in V1.0:
Have just started cutting over my V1.0 reports to V2.0 (2005). One of my users today showed me that the "Find" feature within a V2.0 report searches forward fine. In one case, a three page report, it found the first item on the third page. However, when the "Find" feature was used from that point to get something on the first page, a message was received that it could not find the item. After manually navigating back to page one, and re-entering the same data in "Find" from there, it found the data with no problem on page one.

We have our custom install code using C# for a huge Client desktop application. We package SQL Express 2005 along with Backward Compatibility pack as this application was using MSDE before and at 11th hour management decided to pack SQL Express and backward compatibility pack.
During installation we want to detect if the Backward compatibility pack is already installed to avoid overwrite. Can anyone suggest how to detect if Backward compatibility pack is already installed using C#? I am sure there should be some registery keys to look for but don't know which.
I am running a SQL Server 2000 enterprise default instance and SQL Server 2005 standard named instances on a machine. I uninstalled the default instance and tried to instance 2005 but was unable to with the error:
'an installation packages for the product Microsoft SQL Server Backward Compatibility cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation packages sqlserver2005_bc.msi'
I have tried to repair the backward compatibility currently installed and have also tried runing the msi file again but it will not install.
I have also put back 2000 as the default instance. then tried to apply sp1 to the 2005 named instances and i cannot do that either. anyone have any ideas?
Well, i need a piece of code that return me the schema rowset of a desicion tree and let me iterate me on it. I need some columns like node_type, node_unique_name.... etc.. And another question is that the node_distribution has multiple rows of information. How can i access them. I think there must be a adomddatareader object to iterate on them..
Please let me know if I am on the right track here.
I have an Execute SQL Task that selects multiple rows from an OLE DB connection, each row containing 3 columns (data types = string, Int32, Int32). In this task ResultSet = "Full result set" and Result Set > Result Name = 0, Variable Name = [User::viewInfo] which is a user variable with Data Type = Object.
I want to use a Foreach Loop Container to enumerate over the result set rows that are contained in the [User::viewInfo] variable described above. For each resultset row I want to breakout the 3 column values and assign them to 3 corresponding variables that can be referenced in a Data Flow in the Foreach Loop.
Current settings for the Foreach Loop Container: Collection > Enumerator = "Foreach ADO Enumerator", Collection > Enumerator Configuration > ADO object source variable = [User::viewInfo], Enumeration mode = "Rows in the first table". On the Variable Mappings page I select the 3 corresponding user variables I want the rowset column values assigned to, with indexes starting at 1 (not 0).
I'd like the "OUTPUT DELETED.* INTO target table" resulting from a DELETE to occur in the same order as the clustering key of the target table. Is this possible?
I am using a proc that runs fine in SSMS Query editor and also produces rows when I click the Preview button in the OLEDB Source Adapter. It has two input parameters. The proc contains some CTE's and UNION ALL's. It does not contain any dynamic sql. However, when I run the package I get this error:
[OLE DB Source [1]] Error: A rowset based on the SQL command was not returned by the OLE DB provider.
How can that be when the Preview shows rows being returned?
I see others having this problem when trying to run a query across a link from 2005 to a 2000 server. But we are already running SP4 on our 2000 server. What gives?

I'm trying to upgrade from the SCE 3.0 server tools to the 3.5 server tools. I've uninstalled the 3.0 tools and while trying to install the 3.5 tools I get an error on the IIS requirement indicating that with IIS 7.0 I need to install the backward compatibily components and can not proceed with the install.
Searching Microsoft I get hits that mention the IIS backward compatibility components, but no links on where to download them. This might be a useful link to add to the sticky with the downloads for SCE 3.5. Also, one of the requirements referneces on the SCE3.5 server tools download, indicates that the backward IIS compatibility components were supported on 32 bit OSs, no mention of 64; this also has me concerened.
I'm running Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2005 on my workstation. My device has SCE 2.0, 3.0 & 3.5 on it; these all are working fine. I'm trying to upgrade everything to 3.5 so I can get rid of prior versions. From within VS2008 I can connect to SCE3.5 SDFs and have updated a couple of databases to 3.5. What I want to do is connect to the 3.5 SDFs from SQL Server 2005; which is why I am trying to install the server tools.
I've got SQL 2008 installed on a VM and am able to connect to 3.5 SDFs but I'm trying to avoid the hassle of firing the VM and schlepping files across the VM boundary to work with the 3.5 SDFs. It's becoming a pain. Which is why I am trying to install the server tools.
Is there a resolution to this? Can I get the server tools installed on a 64 bit Vista box? Is there a link for the backward compatibility tools?
My goal is to have a file (it comes from another system) that I want to import via an OPENROWSET style query.
The query would look like this:
select [NoName] from openrowset('MSDASQL' ,'Driver={Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)}; DefaultDir=c:filedir' ,'select * from "file.lst"')
If I make the file a .csv it works fine. However, if it has a not CSV or TXT extension it throws the following error and cannot seem to find a solution to it.
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.". Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".
In addition, (although I can probably find this elsewhere), I need to have the first line 'BLANK' so that it does not miss data (there is no header row). Is there a way to use OPENROWSET without BULK to basically include all rows as data?
I have a strange problem with an OleDB call to a stored procedure thatreturns a rowset.Only the first time I execute the query, after I restart SqlServer, myprogram crashes becausethe rowset is empty. All next calls (after restarting my program, ofcourse) run successfully.The context is:1) if I do not bind the output rowset, my program doesn't crash2) If I run the call without the binding and then I run the call withthe binding, it doesn't crash3) It is not the first query I do in my session4) the call crashes only if in the SP there are some inserts: it is awell known problem with OleDB, but in manyother cases I have fixed it setting NOCOUNT to ON
I am getting the following error when I execute my sql task:
An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "NullVar": " NO result rowset is associated with the execution of this query. "
I am executing a SP that has one input & one output parameter. The output parameter is returning a single row for debugging if the sp failes. I tried using Jamie's method:(http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/12/09/2480.aspx) to get it to work but keep getting the above error. I have the following variables:
In the execute sql task, I set the ResultSet to single row. I set SQLSourceType = variable & sourcevariable = user::SqlSource. In the result tab, I added a result set, NewResultName with the variable user::NullVar. I tried different configurations with the parameter mappings but nothing seemed to work. I didn't know if i still had to use this if I am using the sqlSource variable to drive the task.
So I am not sure what I am missing here. Anyone have any suggestions?
Hello all,i'm moving all my development to the new 2005/Fw2 environment.Now, i have an MSSQL 2005 server on the development server. To restore an existing database, i've created a new database with MSSQL 2000 compatibility level, and i've restored the backup over it. Everything seems ok, but when i try to create a diagram, i get the following error message:"Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because the database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects."I've checked the properties and there seems to be the right owner (sa). If i create a new database with 2005 compatibility level, everithing works fine.Where is the problem?Also, a side question: by setting compatibility level to 2000, is it correct that the database can be deployed to a 2000 Server environment with no problems?Thanks in advance for any advice. -LV
I'm trying to store the output of my stored procedure into a temp table, which takes Table Type as Input.
CREATE TYPE [dbo].[Employee] AS TABLE( [Field] [varchar](50) NULL, [Criteria] [varchar](50) NULL, [Value] [varchar](50) NULL ) declare @Employee dbo.Employee insert into @Employee values(N'Salary',N'is greater than',N'3520')
DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @sql = 'SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(''SQLNCLI'',''Server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=yes;'',''EXEC dbo.uspGetEmployee ' + @Employee + ')'
I need to create a stored procedure which uses output of the above stored procedure. Hence, I don't want to put declare and insert into OPENROWSET as I get those values as parameter to the new procedure.
I have a dataflow task. On which I have OLEDB as my source. I connect to my database and execute a stored proc. the stored proc results in a result set with only one row and two columns. First Column is an integer and the second row is a varchar(max) with xml script in it. Not that it should matter because it is in varchar(max).
Anyway, it give me an error
[OLE DB Source [321]] Error: A rowset based on the SQL command was not returned by the OLE DB provider.
What am I doing wrong?
Can I not have a stroed proc that returns a result set as my data source?

Hi, pls can anyone help me out with this? I'm installing SQL2005 SP2 over an Itanium machine with W2003 SP2 but it keeps on failing on those features. Client components got installed with no problems. I've installed SQL2005-SP2 over x86 and x64 (not Itanium) machines many times before successfuly. I've been investigating this issue for several days with no luck so I'm a bit clueless at the moment. As I'm using Administrator account I think it is not file permission related. Summary says "Unable to install Windows Installer MSP file".
