On the MS website (at this URL: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/evaluation/overview/default.asp) it says that the Standard edition of SQL Server 2000 has a database size limit of 1,048,516 terabytes.
Talking to a friend, he tells me this is not true, and that it has a database size limit of 12gb.
Is Microsofts site incorrect, or is my friend lost?
Thanks in advance. What is maximum SQL Server database (*.mdf) file size with SQL Server 2000 as part of Microsoft Small Business Server 2000? (Database files were limited to 10 GB in SBS 4.5 with SQLServer 7.0... has this changed?).
Has anybody encountered a physical size limit for a sql server 2000 transaction log running on win2k?
Transaction log reached ~6Gb before rolling back the delete stating transaction log was full. There was 42Gb free on the server and the log was set to unlimited growth.
I am looking at running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition in a clustered environment (2 nodes) and am not sure if the 4 processor limit applies to the number of processors per node or the number of processors it will run on in the entire cluster. Could someone please clarify this for me?
How do SQL 2000 service packs play a role in upgrading? That is, can SQL 2000 Standard with no Service Packs(SP) be upgraded to SQL 2005 Standard, or does SQL 2000 Standard have to have a certain service pack??
One of our database is approaching the gigabyte size. I know that microsoft claims to support terabyte databases with sql server 7.0. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about the max size of database they have used on an OLTP site without running into problems. ofcourse with SQL Server.
SQL Server 2000 SP3 on a Dell dual 2.4GHz Xeon box 3GB RAM Windows 2KSP4. Two aplication dbs, each less than 2GB in size.Had a problem where we would run Solomon queries and what not againstthe box. It had 2GB RAM, and sqlserv.exe would take up to 1.85GB ofRAM, exhausting the physical RAM on the box. SQL would choke and theSolomon users would have problems, and I would have to restart the SQLservice.I added another GB of RAM, bringing the box to 3GB, and increased thepaging file. The OS sees it, and SQL sees it. I check EnterpriseManager, and tell SQL to dynamically configure memory, and it offers anupper limit of 3071MB, so it "sees" the 3GB.I can stress the box with queries to the point that sqlserv.exe takes1.99GB of memory (as viewed through Task Manager) and then SQL serverchokes. It never goes past 2GB, and the OS and box continue runningfine.Does SQL server 2000 have some upper limit, or do I just need to changesome setting through EM?Thanks.
Hallo!I have small or big problem.I want creat Store Procedurs whit limit rows.For example I need rows from 100 to 200.--Select * from tableHow I doing best way.
I am being told that the colid in syscolumns may not exceed 255 if the table is replicated. Is that true? Where in BOL or elsewhere can I read-up on this? This is a shocking development!!!
I am currently running SQL Server 2000 Standard on my production system, and I am looking to upgrade the system to Windows 2000 Adv. Server. I would also like to upgrade SQL Server 2000 Standard to SQL Server 2000 Enterprise to utilize more than 2GB of memory. Can anyone tell me what is the best way to upgrade the system, and please provide some feedback on your experiences with the upgrade. Thanks in advance.
Hi, All,I came cross a problem like this.Cannot create a row of size which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060 Is there any method to solve this ?
Does anyone know if a sprocs parameter has a size limit? For example if you're passing in a XML document to a sproc - could that call fail based upon the size of the XML document? Consider memory a non-issue.
I create an sql string as so, add parameters to it and execute it: string cmdstr = "INSERT INTO locations(id1, id2, companyname, address, city, province, postalcode, phonenumber, faxnumber, contact, contactemail) VALUES (@id1,@id2,@companyname,@address,@city,@province,@postalcode,@phonenumber,@faxnumber,@contact,@contactemail)"; SqlCommand sqlCmd = GetCommandSQL(cmdstr); sqlCmd.CommandTimeout = TimeOut; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@id1", SqlDbType.Int).Value = itID; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@id2", SqlDbType.Int).Value = Convert.ToInt32(ddlDPCLocation.SelectedValue); sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@companyname", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbCompanyName")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@address", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbAddress")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@city", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbCity")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@province", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbProvince")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@postalcode", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbPostalCode")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@phonenumber", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbPhoneNumber")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@faxnumber", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbFaxNumber")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@contact", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbContact")).Text; sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@contactemail", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbContactEmail")).Text; sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); for testing purposes ive added the max text in each textbox area, so each textbox has 50 characters or so and i get an error message as follows, when executing the query: "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: String or binary data would be truncated.

We are attempting to improve our merge replication process between our SQL Server 2005 server and SqlCe Mobile 3 client by switching to Data Partitions. We are using IIS as a proxy to SQL Server 2005 running on a different box using a DOMAIN account.
We've setup row filters to use HOST_NAME() and have set the option "Automatically define a partition and generate a snapshot if needed when a new Subscriber tries to synchronize" to true in the Data Partitions options under the publication's properties in SQL server management studio.
If I use a .HostName value of "1234", everything works fine. A subdirectory is created under a our publication's folder in the shared replication directory that relates to the host_name. Data is copied to the device and can be observed through query analyzer that the data is in fact filtered properly.
However, when using a .HostName based on the GetDeviceUniqueID (which results in '3D321F7212B2AD2CC824954662B9023441BB2D20'), replication works sometimes and sometimes fails with "The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have ben unable to create or write to the message file. [etc]". The final HRESULT is 80045017.
While this error indicates a permission problem, there were no permission problems when creating the "1234" partition. In researching the problem, I ran across KB905395 which states: Limitations on the HostName property and the Subscriber-requested snapshotIf you try to initialize a SQL Server Mobile Edition subscription by using a filtered HostName property, initialization fails. This problem occurs when the value that is supplied for the HostName property contains more than 12 characters. To work around this problem, disable Subscriber-requested snapshot delivery at the Publisher. You can also use a value for the HostName property that contains fewer than 12 characters.
====
This seems to be consistent with what we've observed (which actually led to the "1234" test). Does anyone know if a fix for this exists? Has anyone else run across this issue? I saw a previous post from March that did, but never got resolved. However, the KB article above was posted in March - hmmm...
This is an existing application and filtering based on the device's id is ingrained in the application. Changing it now would be large undertaking.

I keep getting an error when I try and create a new data connection. This is the error I'm getting:
Unable to connect to database. It is only possible to connect to SQL Server Desktop Engine databases and Microsoft Access with this version of Visual Studio.
I can connect to Access without any problems. Is there anyway around this? I'm using C# .net Standard with SQL Server 2000.
I am so frustrated, I have upsized a data base from access to sql 6.5 and now had to clip data to fit into a 255 field? I have been looking for weeks to find a solution for this.
I am writing a discussion board very much like this one and need the message text to hold more than 255 chars. I have tried to create a table with a blob and text, The text will not allow me to specify the size when creating from a script (ASP) using create table. If I dont specify a size, it creates it as 16?
Been working on this for several weeks and cannot locate anyone that can answer this question, I want to create a column that will hold more than 255 chars.
IS there something in Sql 6.5 that I need to set to allow more than 255 on a text field? What am I doing wrong?
Please respond. Thank you. Mike (you can see this board here www.454ss.com)
Is there any way of getting around the 128MB file size limit when creating and adding SSEv databases to VS2005? Currently I get the following error when trying to connect to a database:"The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. This setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only...". This after I altered the app.config file to "...Max Database Size=600;..." Have anyone tried to use SSEv to cache data with the use of the Smart Application Offline Building Block? Is there a provider I can use for doing this?
I have a report subscription this is generating PDF files. The end user of the PDF files requires these files to be below a certain threshold in file size. Is there any way to set up a subscription to generate files that are under the threshold size?
If I knew approximately how many records would generate a report below the threshold, is there a way to generate several reports all of which are below the threshold? Thanks.
I have installed IIS, VS.NET 2003, .NET 2.0 Framework, and now I have tried to install the standard version of SQL Server 2000 and it is telling me that I can only install the client components. The O/S is Windows XP Pro on a laptop.
I am running Win2k Professional version SP2. I tried to install the SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition, I got error message said " MS Sql Server 2000 Standard Edition server component is not supported on this operating system. Only client components will be available for installation."
Im attempting to install SQL Server 2000 Standard on Windows XP Pro and it keeps returning to me an error:
"Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition server component is not supported on this operating system. Only client components will be available for installation."
Anybody have any idea what this means according to the documentation and previous posts on installation problems my operating system should support this edition of SQL server.
I am currently trying to migrate to a new computer. My old computer (Box 1) has Windows 2000 Ver 5.0 SP4 as an operating system. My new computer (Box 2) has Windows XP Professional Ver 5.1 SP2 as an operating system.
Currently, I have Microsoft SQL Server 2000 running on Box 1. When I used the CD to install the software on Box 2, it will not allow a full install. Just the Client portion. The exact message I get is "Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition is not supported on this operating system. Only client components will be available for installation.
How in the world do I get this software to install on Box 2? I've seen and downloaded, the service packs but I don't know where to go from there.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
