A 3rd part app is requiring that I create a credential, whick in turn requires an SMK be set. When I try to create the credential, I get an error message indicating a decryption error. When I run the alter command to regenerate the key (without force) it throws an error indicating the key cannot be decrypted. According to a KB article I found, this may indicate that a key has never been generated.
My question is, I have a number of production databases in this instance, including SQL Reporting Services. Except for the SRS DB's, all other user db's are simple db's that don't use encryption. If I run the Force command to generate the key, am I going to break anything? I'm really concerned about report servioces.
I have a quick question regarding SQL Server Enterprise Manager. I'm looking at setting up a job to automatically create DDL for a user database. This will be done along with our normal nightly backup routine. I'm very familiar with using EM to create SQL scripts, but is there anyway to schedule this task? I've considered DTS and some type of scheduled package, but can't seem to find anything similar. I'm thinking I may need a custom task. Could someone please shed some light on the subject? If not from within EM, how about any third party tools? FYI - I already own the Embarcadero suite and am trying it out wwith that.

The information in the database for the report is as follows
Hi all,I am following the procedure where I generate XMLs of tables and put itin a DataSet and read that dataset back into another database to bewritten into the tables.Although I am VERY close to completion a small problem that I am facingis that the XMLs being generated have as the table name "table" and notthe actual names.Is this a known issue or am I amiss? and, does anyone have a solutionfor this?Thank you.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***
Hi guys,Apologies Simon for not making it clearer last time. What i am doing isreading a table from the SQL Server 2000 database and using:SQLDataSet.WriteXml(strFileName, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);to write to the DataSet. But I realised that when I do that the XML isgenerated correctly, the only error being that<xs:element name="Table"> comes in as the tablename instead of theactual table name.Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***
HelloFor my client, I need to generate reports from the information storedin the database. The client has fixed format forms (on paper e.g. USCustoms forms etc).Will I need to redesign the forms in the application and then show theinformation?Another approach is to scan the forms as image and print theinformation on top of that image, so when it is printed , theinformation will be displayed at the right places.Is there any other way? How is the reporting done if the forms arepre-defined and the information is stored in a databaseThanks for your input
I am working with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service from few days, though I am not expert, for some reason I have to run on field without having sound knowledge of RDL, but need your help, gys. I am using SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio to design report.
Here is the procedure of my work to populate a RDL report
I used a stored procedure for the DataSet of my RDL Then I drag and drop necessary field to my report layout. Put required parameters to preview tab and then run report.
This is quite simple, I didn't face any problem with this process, even though the process may not correct, but working perfect. My problem is when the stored procedure returns multiple result set. The data tab only shows the first result set though the SP returns multiple result set, I have run the SP in the Query Analyzer. I don't want change my stored procedure.
And please give me some suggestions about the best procedure to develop RDL report in real life.
Can any one tell me how can I create auto number (similar feature to MS Access) i.e. autmatic increament by 1 in MS SQL 2005 (without using any script)
Does anyone know an efficient method for generating a sequence number in the following form?
Starting with 2 columns 1 2 ---- A X A Y B X B Y B Z C X
I want to then generate a third column as follows: 1 2 3 ------- A X 1 A Y 2 B X 1 B Y 2 B Z 3 C X 1
The purpose being so that I can easily identify the previous row within a Column1 group. So given column1=A and column2=Y I know that the previous row is Column3 - 1 where column1 = A. Therefore I will be able to join to the previous result of any row within any group quickly for future calculations.

How can i accomplish this? I use SQL server 2008.
Hi, I have an error table that is to be updated by more than one package. There is a sequence number generated in the error table. It is generated by using the max value of the previous data present in the table. When more than one package runs parallely, conflict occurs in generating the sequence number. How can this be handled?
Hi.I have a database I need to supply something (I'm assuming a t-sql script..maybe something else is better) to update customer tables with.The operations include mostly changing varchar lengths, though a couple ofcolumns were renamed.I'd like to maybe figure out how to get Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzerto generate the scripts.I can't just send alter table scripts because I'm involving all sorts ofconstraints that have to be disabled/or dropped, the alter made, then havethem enabled/ or re-created.Basically I'm hoping to get the tools to do the rather large amount of workfor me. I'm targetting sql server 2000.Can someone make a knowledgeable suggestion?RegardsJeff Kish

Hello all, Say I have a report that is running for a long time and I want to cancel it. Is there a way to cancel the report generation once we submit the Report Generation Button? If I close my Browser, Am I closing my session in the server side? If server is still churning out the old report and I open another browser to request the same report, I might easily crash the server if the requests for the same report keep growing?

Is there any way to change the image "Report is being generated" to something else or at least change the location of it. I have a report that is very long and our users have to scroll down to see that. They think the report is frozen when in all reality it is still generating. It is postioning in the center of the page and I want it to position at the top.
I have developed several reports with selectable parameters. When the report is first requested three stored procedures are triggered and return the parameters (+2 min), following parameters being returned the default report is returned (+3 min), this time is unacceptable. Is there anything I can do to speed up the report generation? Any help here is greatly appreciated.
Ok, suppose I have created a new table with an Identity column, but I want to load the table from an existing table and I can€™t let SQL Ev reset the Identity values. In SQL Server I can turn off Identity generation using
SET IDENTITY_INSERT biblio.dbo.authors OFF
Is there an equivalent in SQL Ev?
My next question is (if this does not work), can I use ALTER TABLE to disarm the Identity value and re-arm it after the load?
I have a database which contains more than a hundred publications and the clients need a snapshot for each one. Is there a way of automating this process of creating a snapshot? Like a job or something.
Hi, We need to generate the reports in a file share location and notify the Users about the location. Since the subscriptions support either File share or Email notification, we have configured file share mode in our subscriptions. We tried writing a custom C# component to send emails to the Users but getting the status of reports generation is difficult. Is there a way to notify the users after generating the reports in a file share? Subash

Just by using SQL Server 2000, what's the best way to run a stored procedure outputing the results to an excel sheet? I don't have Crystal Reports or any other 3rd party reporting tool to help me, a restriction of our client.
Found this http://searchsqlserver.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid87_gci1057989,00.html sp_write2Excel. Would this be the best way? Any other methods? The SQL server does not have MS Office so I think I need to ouput to a csv file.
