Not sure if this is possible but anyways. Need to restrict access on systems for users
and at the moment they are limited to being server and process administrators only.
This gives them enough room to do what they need to do, however the taskpad view in Enterprise manager only shows them the Log space used, not the datafiles.
The only way to get the TaskPad view to show the datafiles is to add them to the database creators role, which already gives them more permissions than they need.
So, just a shot in the dark but is there someway to get Taskpad view to show all the info there about the database?
Hi, we work on sql server 2000, when try to view the taskpad of the database, always has the internet explorer script error, and click no nothing could come back, what would be the fix? thank you
I installed the MS SQL Server 2000, In Enterprise Manager of MS SQL 7.0 when you R Click on database you get the view option and you can select taskpad, which is very useful to know table size, database size allocated and used in graphical display, but with EM 2000 this feature is missing, Does any one knows how to get this graphical feature in EM 2000.
After installing SQL7.0E on NT4.0E(SP6), I got a "Internet Explorer Script Error" on clicking the server name using MMC. Supposedly the Taskpad would show up in the right panel. owever, a error pop up saying "Line 5, Char 4, unspecified error,code 0, URL ...sqlmmc.rll/default.htm". It continued even after installing SP2.
Any suggestion or information is really appreciated.
After I used "copy database" to upgrade a SQL 7 database to SQL 2000, all are fine except the TaskPad view. The table info section is blank. Though we know all tables are in the table object.
Hi,Simple question: A customer has an application using Access 2000frontend and SQL Server 2000 backend. Data connection is over ODBC.There are almost 250 concurrent users and is growing. Have theysqueezed everything out of Access? Should the move to a VB.Net frontendtaken place ages ago?CheersMike
I recently had to reinstall a new instance of SQLServer 2000, but was unable to use the previous server name. As a result, my Access2000 front end is not happy with it's linked tables. I can't seem to find anyplace within Access to universally change the address of the SQLServer used as the back-end for all linked tables.
When I do try to access the linked tables through Access, I get an error, and the option to change the server location. When I try to type-in the new SQLServer location, there is an attempt to reconnect to SQLServer, but a whole lot of errors are generated, and none of the data is transferred into the Access table.
I really don't want to have to re-do my Access front end, so it seems it would be easiest to somehow reinstall SQLServer to have the same server location it used to. Is there a good way to completely erase all traces of SQLServer so that I can have better luck reinstalling it to the same location it used to be in? Just using the uninstall program from SQLServer doesn't seem to be cutting it.
I've created a small company database where the tables reside in a SQLServer database. I'm using Access 2000 forms for a front end.I've got a System DSN set-up to SQL Server and am using links withinAccess 2000 to get to the SQL Server tables.My forms worked fine until I made a few minor changes to the databaseschema on SQL Server (e.g. added a foreign key, or added a column).After that, all the links break - I click on a table link and get anerror msg like "invalid object name."Deleting the links after a schema change and re-adding the links seemedto fix the problem. The forms I'd already created seemed to work fineafter re-creating the links.But then I got more advanced with my forms. I have it set up so thatfor certain entry fields, the combobox gets populated with values froma table (the description appears in the drop-down and the correspondingprimary key value gets populated in the table). I created a number offorms using this technique, entered data, and everything worked fine.Made a small schema change and it broke everything -- not the actualtable links, but the functionality for the drop-downs. My values nolonger appeared, and this was true for forms that accessed tables whoseschemas did not change.This is driving me nuts. Is there any way to keep my forms frombreaking each time I make a small schema change?Thanks.- Dana
We are using an Access 2000 project to view our SQL Tables and using Access 2000 Runtime to Access the forms in the project. We have written in a locking system in VB and removed the video controls to prevent users from accessing the same records. But of course now we need to make the video controls available. This has now thrown up the problem of multiple users accessing the same records. We have tried to write code to lock records when then video controls are used but this is not working as well as we hoped. Can anyone please suggest any way of setting up locking on SQL using triggers from the Access frontend? or any other types of locking systems that could be written in the Access front end.
Hi, I worked on a project in ASP.NET using SQL server 2000 as the back end. Its a conversion application that I rewrote in ASP.NET using C#. I need to import the old data in Access db into SQL server 2000 and I have very little knowledge about doing it. The data in not a direct one -one transformation. There are considerable changes to the Database design and data types. Any help and suggestions wud be really helpful. Also, any article links wud be great.
We have a SQL Server 7.0 system in NT 4.0 environment. We upgraded our users to Access 2000 and started to work with this. Now we installed a new server which is Windows 2000 based and the domain is different from the SQL servers domain. We then installed Access 2000 on Windows 2000 to use with terminal server. But I noticed that there was a problem with the program. I then looked at the program which was written on Access 2000 and saw that the tables and views can't be seen. The program runs but I can't see the views and tables. Another thing is access disconects from SQL Server when I want to see the tables. So what can be the problem.
In one part there is an Access 2000 on Windows 2000 server. On the other part SQL Server 7.0 on Windows NT 4.0. And Access can't see the tables in SQL server.
When I try to make a connection to an Access .mdb I get the following error: "Unable to open application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user"
Yet, I am able to open the file through Access and have necessary permissions and I know no one else has it opened. The mdb is password protected and I have provided the correct login information in the DTS connection.
I'm converting a View from access to Sql and I'm stuck on this IF statement.
IIf([FG_Qtys_1].[CoreQty]=0 Or [FG_Qtys_1].[CoreQty] Is Null,[KitCoreOnHand],[FG_Qtys_1].[CoreQty]);
I know that I could use CASE statement but i keep on getting errors.
My Case Statement: case when [dbo.FG_Qtys_view].[CoreQty]=0 then dbo.FG_Qtys_Kits.KitCoreOnHand when [dbo.FG_Qtys_view].[CoreQty] ISNULL then [dbo.FG_Qtys_view].[CoreQty] end as CoreQty
Hello all, i hope someone that understands SQL can help me.
I have a report that runs from a access query, which is simple. My problem is that i get an overflow error becuase one of the queries formulas are to divide some numbers and in this one instance there is a "0" involved.
My formula is: Col2%: [Col 2 Hrs]/([TotHrs]-[Col 6 Hrs])
The problem is that [Col 2 Hrs]=0 this month for a specific employee.
In excel i know i can do =IF([Col 2 Hrs]=0,"0",([Col 2 Hrs]/([TotHrs]-[Col 6 Hrs]))) and that works fine.
Can someone please show me how to do this in SQL so instead of returning an error it will display 0 or N/A.
Thanks inadvance
Hope i explained my issed well enough for everyone.
I'm having trouble creating a read-only view. I've got 1 or more tables that I wish to remain updatable but I want to create a view that covers the table and/or spans all the tables. However, I want the view to be select only. I can't seem to get it to work.
DENY UPDATE ON [dbo].[MyView] TO [dbo] CASCADE
All that seems to execute my dbo user can still use...
Update MyView set SomeID = SomeID + 10
Plus, ideally I just want to say, DENY UPDATE ON VIEW TO ALL
Hello all, I need to prevent all users (other than sysadmin/dbo) privs to access the database code (SP/Views/UDF). What would be the best way to achieve that? TIA
I try to create a view in Access Project but in design view I only see "all columns" in a table. The individual columns are not listed. This happens only with a certain SQL Server database. Any suggestions ?
I am translating some of my Access queries to SQL views. In one of those, I had a very convenient function called "IIF" (e.g. IIf(IsNull([Remark]),"NULL","NOT NULL").
How is this function called in the MS SQL Server 2000? Apparently I cannot use either "IIF" nor "CASE" in the query/view.....
How can I configure a front end Access 2000 Database using Microsoft SQL 2000 as a back end environment? Could anybody help me by telling me what are the steps under SQL? Thanks everyone in advance.
I am converting a MS Access 2000 project to use SQL Server. This project has uncovered a number of problems, my latest seems to be very odd.
When I query using ADO against the SQL Server database, the results don't seemed to be returned immediately. It's like the access methods being used are waiting too long to write/read the data.
This could be a simple ADO configuration error, but I cannot find any settings that would make this behave so strange.
I'm using OLE/DB drivers with trusted security and attaching using client-side recordsets (I tried server-side as well, same results) to get data for the Access form. In many instances, the data from the form is not yet retrieved when I check the results using the debugger. If I execute the same section of code just seconds later, it works without fail.
I ran the SQL Server Profiler just for grins and found that records were not getting written to the database as I would have expected. Apparently ADO had generated a transaction and rolled it back. (why I don't know) I have looked in Microsoft's support database and on MSDN to no avail. Rather then rewriting my T-SQL as stored procedures for these functions, I'm hoping for some insights from anyone else who has been down this nasty road.
Here is the exact scenario:
Problem #1: A form that accepts data and has an update button does not update the recordset being used to populate the form. I even coded a rst.Update statement into the code. The record within the recordset isn't updated until the DoCmd.GotoRecord , , acNewRec call has been made. I suppose I could code the insert statement myself, but shouldn't Access be updating the database for me. (it does have r/w access)
Problem #2: A subform that performs a query and allows records to be added to a table does not correctly detect data returned from the query. A check is made in the code for a field (which has a value of 0) but the code detects a null value. If I step through this code in the debugger, enough time passes that the value is present and I never see the problem. If I set a breakpoint at the error, the null condition is indicated, even though the debugger shows a value of 0 for the field.
SQL Server version is 2000, with SP3a applied.
I updated the MDAC to 2.8, JET to 8.0 and still the same problem. I cannot find anything in my ADO or Access books for a setting that would cause this behavior. My connection is using the following info:
Set Conn = New ADODB.Connection Conn.CursorLocation = adUseClient Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset Connection string: Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=myserver;Initial Catalog=mydb;Trusted_Connection=Yes;Integrated Security=SSPI; Recordset Cursor type: adOpenDynamic Recordset LockType: adLockOptimistic
I open the recordset using: rst.Open mytable, Conn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTableDirect
Problem # 1
After manipulating the data in the form, I press a "save" button on the form. This button calls a number of subroutines, eventually executing the code below:
Problem # 2 I set the recordsource using: (in the form_open) Me.RecordSource = "Select * from mytable where myfield = 'data'"
In the form_unload, the problems occur. It tests for a value stored in the form from the query. This value is null at the time of the code execution, it has a value when inspected within the debugger however.
Maybe I'm missing something here, this project was originally coded using DAO. My conversion to ADO is 95% complete. (all of these two components are converted to ADO) This problem is causing me to miss out on sleep and look like a rookie.
Has anyone seen or heard of something such as this? Is there any hope for this snarled mess of 25K lines of code?
Hi,I have developed an application using VB 6 (SP 5), MS Access 2000 andCrystal Reports 9. I migrated from from access to SQl Server 2000.This wasn't a problem as i could import all the tables to SQL Server.Also, i could make VB6 talk to SQl Server.The problem arsies when i run my application. The sql syntax foraccess seems to be different than that for SQL Server. A simpleexample being: In access boolean datatype is true/false ,whereas inSQL Server the boolean equivalent is bit (numerical 1 or 0). Thesekind of issues are causing problems and most queries don't run.Would i need to go and change all the queries in accordance with SQlServer syntax ,which would be very time consuming or is there anyfunction which will convert the access datatype into its equivalentSQl Server datatype??Any input/thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.ThanksJatin
I do not know if you can see my reply after yours. Any way I try it here again.
In the DTS Export Wizard, after select the source (SQL Server)and destination (Excel), I have 2 choices:Table copy or query.
When I use query, I can place my sp there, and the export works fine exactly as you recommended. Thanks a lot.
But when I selected a table copy, I was given a "Select Source Tables" popup form, I can see all the table names there, but can not find any views in the database. I do not know why. Am I in the right place this time?
Good morning, I'm trying to create a view on SQL Server based on a query that i use on Access. The query returns detailed data from a table based on ID's selected and saved into another table.
the thing is, on access it returns back 5 records<which is a correct output> , while on SQL. its returning only one record. what could be the issue here ?
Hey everyone. I've linke an access database and I am able to query the tables like so:
SELECT * FROM QFinity...tblEmployees
I can do that to all the tables, however, I'd like to create a view to this linked database. Is this possible? I have a more complex query I'd like to run:
SELECT dbo_evaluations.eval_id, dbo_evaluations.quality_date, dbo_eval_questions.status FROM QFinity...dbo_evaluations INNER JOIN dbo_eval_questions ON dbo_evaluations.eval_id = dbo_eval_questions.eval_id;
I get the error "Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Invalid object name 'dbo_evaluations'."
I'm afraid I've reached the limit of my know how concerning sql server 2005... I think I read that I need to create a view? But I can't figure out how to do that.

Our business application is running SQL Server in a remote data center and we had been using MS Access from a local PC to occasionally fix data problems in the data base. As the tables continue to grow, it's painfully obvious MS Access just can't handle the volume of data. One of our tables we need to get into is about 200,000 rows, another is over 100,000 rows.
We need to be able to change individual rows, and perform search and replace commands across one or more columns in select tables.
What software can we install on local desktops to allow viewing and editing of SQL table data?
VisitId Code1 Code2 Code3 Code4 1 N/A Text Code2 Text Code3 N/A 2 Text Code1 N/A N/A N/A 3 n/a n/a *TextCode3* n/a 4 Text Code1 n/a n/a Text COde4
I am sure I Group by VisitId, but do not know the correct function to construct the rest of the Select Query
Create View vw_tblText As Select VisitId, Case(intCodeId=1 Then chrText Else 'N/A' End) As Code1 Case(intCodeId=2 Then chrText Else 'N/A' End) As Code2 etc.. From tblText Group by intVisit
