Hi everyoneDoes anyone know or has anyone heard of any migration tools whichare/might be available for converting SQL Server 2000 databases to SQLServer 2005 Express?I'm guessing it is probably a bit early but it was worth a shot!ThanksDave
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've downloaded the migration tool to convert an Access 2000 DB to a SQL DB. The VB code utilizes DAO (3.6) for hourly automatic compaction and the creation of an encrypted security database. ADO is used for the data maintenance functions. I expect the current connection methodology of ODBC using Jet 4.0 will need to be modified (many articles here address this). All the SQL code is inline and also must be modified. The Coldfusion code utilizes Micrsoft Access with Unicode via an ODBC connection with only SQL Select statements. At another job, I migrated an Informix 7 database to MS SQL 7 and for the most part the SQL code remained the same except for the wildcard spec from * to %.
I'm looking for insights and/or shortcuts on this effort, primarily in the SQL command mods area. I'm perusing the threads here as we speak, but hoped someone knew of a specific thread I could go to....laziness is alive and well for us chronologically gifted people, i.e. over 55.
Any help or links are greatly appreciated!
Hi ,
I have a requirement to migrate the data from an existing MS Access database to a newly designed SQL Express 2005 database . Need less to say the table structures in both are totally different.I would like to know how can i handle a scenerio where i want to map table A in access to table B in SQL express (the schema of both different and the number of columns can vary too) , how do i migrate the data from table A in Access to Table B in SQL express using SSMA?
Also i would appreciate if some one can tell me is SSMA the right tool for this , or should i use the upsizing wizard of MS Access. The constraint here is that the data needs to be migrated to a completely new schema. I just need to migrate data only and no other objects.
Thanks

The Environment:
I have an old Windows 2000 BackOffice server (Retail but with no media) that hosts a small database (<50mb) that is hosted on the local SQL Server 2000 installation. The network has 8 PCs that connect to the database via ODBC connections. I just purchased a new server running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition (OEM).
What I€™m Trying to Accomplish:
I want to decommission the old 2000 BackOffice server and move the database to the new 2003 Standard server. I€™m trying to do this on the cheap, so I really want to avoid spending thousands on a new SQL server license.
Things I€™m Considering:
1) Migrating the database from SQL 2000 Standard to SQL 2005 Express
2) Moving the database from SQL 2000 Standard to MS Access
3) Purchasing SQL Server 2005 licenses and upgrading
4) Purchasing SQL 2000 Server licenses
The options are pretty much listed in my order of preference. I€™d like to move from SQL 2000 Server to SQL 2005 Express, but I haven€™t really found a lot of material on the subject since people customarily go the other way.
Any advice or alternative recommendations would be much appreciated!
Normally I'd go and write a bunch of code for doing it manually... But instead of that, maybe there is a smarter way?
What I know is that you can get some kind of dump out of MySQL but I would be very surprised if that could be directly read into SQL Express ??
So if you have a few step guide to migrate from MySQL to SQL Express, I am all ears (and eyes)!
Thanks!
(Yes I am aware there is some DTS thingy for this but could not find it in the Express folders)

Hi all
I have a problem with the migration of databases from sql 2000 to sql 2005.
When i try to create the table or when i try to import the database, the below message is prompt:

Any ideas about this problem?

We have an old client server application (vb / sql 2000) we have now converted that application to a web based asp.net / sql 2000. Though the db is same (sql 2000) for both applications, tables/columns has been changed during the development process. Now i need to migrate the data from our old db to this new db. Should this be done the "painful" way of checking each and every table its links/dependencies, columns manually or is there a tool which helps me migrate the data from one db to another (even though the tables/columns are different)Please Help.Thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I'm new to databases but not to programming in general. I've got a few applications which currently sit on a single PC and read/update a particular XML file on the box. The applications are C# apps and use FileSystemWatchers and a mutex to keep watch for changes and update the XML file as needed. It has worked reasonable well for me.
Now, I need to run these applications on separate machines, so it seemed a good point to consider moving toward a database solution.
I'm hoping that there is a straightforward solution using SQL Server that will ensure that my applications alway have the current view of the world. I had run into instances with my existing setup where once in a while an application thought its DataSet was up to date, but wasn't.
Can someone point me in the right direction to implement the solution? I suspect that this is a really common need for lots of programs that are distributed. I'm still quite a newbie with databases and SQL Server, so I'm not even sure I'm using the right terms to describe things.
Thanks,
Matt
I have migrated sybase database to sql server it seems successfully migrated, we required to validate data and datatype before going to production, how can this be achieved, kind of stored procedure which can be run both sides (sybase and sql) and validated in some way.
View 5 Replies View RelatedUsually when in the process of migration, how to calculate how much time it will take to migrate the database. If a database full backup is taking approximately 3 hr how much time it will take to restore that database.
Which process is better to migrate the SQL server from 2008 to 2014.
Database migration wizard or restoring the db using backup file?
Usually if you are new to the sql server and you don't have any idea about the OS how can you find how much time it will take for migration for each database and for all databases

I'm trying to migrate tables from one database to another. The tables in the source database (MY_SOURCE_DB) have a schema of "dbo". I want to create the tables in the target database (MY_TARGET_DB) with a schema of "xyz". I want to migrate all of the tables with "contract" in the table name:
select table_name from information_schema.tables
where table_name like '%contract%'
I want to migrate the full table definitions, table data and dependent objects. This needs to be done through a sql script as opposed to SSIS.
Hi,
Is there any tool available to migrate the data from the SQL Server
test database to SQL Server production database. Data Migration should
be based on a condition which can be given as an input for a table by
the user. The dependant tables also should be migrated based on the
condition. i.e data subsetting based on the matching conditions.
Ex : Salary > 2000
The rows of the table which matches the condition alone need to be
migrated for the corresponding table. Also its dependant table's
rows should be migrated based on the given condition. Please help me
with a tool which can automate this.
Thanks,

hi,
I migrated the Northwind database using SQL Migration Assistant for Access. it worked fine and I was able to link the access forms to Local machine SQL Server 2005 and it worked fine.
Now i want to link the same Northwind access database to Another Server on the network.
When i try to run the wizard again, it won't migrate the user objects like tables to server, it will just create a database and that is it.
it will give me this error too.
No User objects were selected.
any idea,
Thanks,

I've installed SQL 2005 Express Addition which created a default database using Windows Authentication -- MachineName/SQLEXPRES. I want to convert some access databases to sql server in the migration assistant, however, when I try to connect the migration assistant to the default database I can't find the database in the drop down box wizard? I'm perplexed? Please shed some light or point me to some articles that will help. Thanks.
I want to move table from one database to another database in same instance, table should migrated with complete data,with same column data type, all constraints like PK,FK unique key, check, identity, permissions has to be there.. which is the right way to achieve this.

When I downloaded/started using Visual Web Developer I was under the impression that I needed to install SQL Server Management Studio Express in order to create/manage databases, and to provide the engine to access the data.
Since then I have found tutorials and have successfully created/used databases solely from within Visual Web Developer. I'm assuming that Visual Web Developer includes a database engine, much like the webserver that is included. (This is an awesome thing).
When I tried to upload my web application with database to my production server, the database would not work, it started working after I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the server.
Is it my understanding that you need SQL Server Management Studio Express if you do not have Visual Web Developer Express installed in order to provide the data access engine?
Also, I am unable to "attach" my Visual Web Developer Express created database to SQL Server Management Studio Express. Are there any posts that provide more information about this topic?
The only reason I'm asking is that I have extra whitespace on the end of my text fields, and I thought ANSI_PADDING was turned on. I do not see the option in Visual Web Developer Express, but have found it in SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Hi
I have VC++ express and MSSQL SMS express and have an application working nicely locally. The Data explorer and data connections part works really easily.
Now, I want to make the application available to my home network.
I mapped the drive where the database is and called it Z: so I could put my "release" on my other network PC and assumed it would find Z: if I mapped the shared network drive on that machine and called it Z:
But: I can't even add the mapped connection on the local machine, I get:
The file "Z:databasescalorie.mdf" is on a network path not supported for database files. An attempt to attach.....etc"
It works fine on the original F drive.......
Am I approaching this the wrong way. How should I distribute to network PCs?
thanks hopefully

Hi,
I am a newbie so i apologies beforehand for any mistakes i make on this forum.
Anyway, i created an asp.net website using the MS Visual Web developer tool. This has a couple of SQL SERVER databases within it.
I then latervinstalled the SQL SERVER management studio express in order to manage the SQL SERVER DBs that i had as part of my website but they do not appear within the management studio db list.
As this is the express version, is there anyway of importing the existing SQL SERVER dbs that i have to the management studio so i can manage them from there?

I get an error dialog when I try to create a new SQL database, both via the Add New Item dialog and the property wizard of a new SqlDataSource control. The error is:
Local Database File:
User does not have permission to perform this action.
I've searched for help with this.
I ensured the App_Data folder exists and I added the local ASP.NET account to the group that have R/W access to it (although the RO flag is in an unchangeable tri-state on the folder).
The SQL Server Express error log is clean and indicates full functionality.
Everything is running locally.
No VWD installation errors.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
