SQL Server Management Studio Express: Object Explorer - How To Re-attach The Content Of User-defined Database
Nov 21, 2007
Hi all,
I just found that the content of my Database "ssmsExpressDB" is gone, but the name "ssmsExpressDB" remains in the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express. If I delected the name "ssmsExpressDB" and executed the following .sql:
exec sp_attach_db @dbname = N'ssmsExpressDB',
@filename1 = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatassmsExpressDB.mdf',
@filename2 = N'C:Program filesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatassmsExpressDB_log.LDF'
GO
I got the following error message:
Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
Unable to open the physical file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatassmsExpressDB.mdf". Operating system error 32: "32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)".
And I have closed all my projects and I do not know what " The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" is all about!? Please help and tell me how I can re-attach the content of my "ssmsExpressDB" in the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
====================================================================================
I found the "ssmsExpressDB" is being used by my VB 2005 Express project "Hello-SQLCLR-1": in the Database Explorer, Data Connections place. How can I put it back to the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express? Please help and advise.

Hi all,
I just realized recently that a database "XYZ" in the Object Explorer of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) is put in the Database Explorer of my VB 2005 Express for processing a Stored Procedure in executing the SELECT statements (not by using Input and/or Output Parameters) during the ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express programming, then the content of the database "XYZ" is not in the SSMSE. How can I return the database "XYZ" from the DataBase Explorer of VB 2005 Express back to the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) safely? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

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 all,
In my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE)=>Object Explorer=>Databases, the "NORTHWND" database was screwed up and is deleted completely. But under the same Object Explorer =>Databases, there is a database "C:SSMSE-BookChapter12WINCH12NORTHWND.MDF". I need to use this "NORTHWND" database in the SqlConnection. How can I specify the "Initial Catalog" (or "database") in the New SqlConnection code statement (in the ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express programming)?
Should it be like the following:
Dim sqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnction("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog=C:SSMSE-BookChapter12WINCH12NORTHWND; Integrated Security=SSPI;") ? Or what is the right code statement for connecting to it?
Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

I am having a problem Attaching, well actually not being able to see a database when attempting to attach it. I suspect this is more of a security issue rather than a problem with Management Studio, but I can't figure out what is happening.
If I copy a database to Documents and SettingsAll Users... and attempt to attach I can see the file in the selection tree. This also is the case if I copy it to Documents and SettingsDefault User... But if I copy it to Documents and SettingsADynarski... which is the account I normally log into, when I expand the folder in the selection tree, nothing is visible. And the same thing occurs if I copy the file to Documents and SettingsGuest...
I've looked at the security settings and everything appears to be normal. This is on a box with XP Home and SQL Server Express. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Al

Hi all,
I just downloaded AdventureWorks_Data.mdf, AdventureWorks_Data.ldf, AdventureWorksDW_Data.mdf, and AdventureWorksDW_Data.LDF files to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1|MSSQLData folder of my Windows XP Pro PC. I tried to attach the AdventureWorks database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express in the following way: I clicked on SQL Server 2005 Express=>SQL Server Management Studio Express=>Right clicked on Databases=> clicked on "Attach..."=> "Attach Databese" showed up. But I can not type in anything under the MDF File Location, Database Name, Attach As, Owner, Status, Message!!!??? What is wrong in my way of doing the attachment of AdventureWorks database (described above)? Please help and advise.
Thanks,
Scott Chang
P. S. I do not have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Walkthrough: Install the AdventureWorks Database (http://msdn2.microsoft/en-us/library/ms31035.aspx) : To confirm your SQL Server data directory (Start=>All Programs, Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio Tools, Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt) steps 1 thru 4 can not be applied to my SQL Server Management Studio Express. I read an SQL Express post dated 19 April 2006 and learned the above-mentioned way to attach the AdventureWorks database in the SQL Server Management Studio Express. But that way does not work for me.

Using the starter kit, Personal Web Site, I start by adding a new user to the Administrator Role in the the the SQLExpress database by using the Graphical Web Administrator Tool . Then, using the Personal Web Site application in Visual Studio 2005 (not the Web Developer Express 2005) , I register a new account. When I examine Server Explorer, I can see 2 users in aspnet_Membership and 2 users in aspnet_User tables. However, when I use SQL Server Management Studio Express, I only see 1 user in both of those tables. Is there a reason for this?

As part of our security project, I've done the following when logged in as 'sa':
Created database roles 'dbrole1' within dbAccount
Created login and user 'user1' and added user to be a member of 'dbrole1'
Granted execute permissions on sp1 and sp2 to 'dbrole1'
However, I didn't see the above permissions listed in SQL Server Management Studio - Database - Security - Roles - Database Roles - 'dbrole1' properties - securables
Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Jonathan Kehayias, Thanks for your valuable response.
I had a hard time to sumbit my reply in that original thread yesterday. So I created this new thread.
Here is my response to the last code/instruction you gave me:
I corrected a small mistake (on Integrated Security-SSPI and executed the last code you gave me.
I got the following debug error message:
1) A Box appeared and said: String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
|OK|
2) After I clicked on the |OK| button, the following message appeared:
This "SqlException was unhandled
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated."
is pointing to the "Throw" code statement in the middle of
.......................................
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
Throw
Finally

Please help and advise how to correct this problem in my project that is executed in my VB 2005 Express-SQL Server Management Studio Express PC.
Thanks,

When I go into the Management Studio, I can't see the "Database Mail" node under "Management"
I'm thinking I might need a service pack as in the about, I don't see a service pack listed. BUT, when I go to the SQL Server 2005 Express "Service Pack 2" page, there's no option to just download the Service Pack. I recently downloaded (2 weeks ago or so) this Sql Server Express Edition and I'm thinking this might have Service Pack 2 already, but I'm not sure as I don't see it in the "about".
What should I do?

Hi all,
I have read/studied (i) Working with Databases in Visual Web Developer 2005 Express in http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStartv20/aspnet/doc/data/vwd.aspx, (ii) Xcopy Deployment (SQL Server Express) in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165716.aspx, (iii) User Instances for Non-Administrators in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143684.aspx, and (iv) Embedding SQL Server Server Express in Applications in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165660.aspx. I do not understand the concepts and procedures to do Xcopy and User Instances for non-administrators completely-I do not know how to connect to databases and create database diagrams or schemas using the Database Explorer. I have a stand-alone Windows XP Pro PC. I have created a ChemDatabase with 3 dbo tables in the SQL Server Management Studio of my SQL Server Express and a website of my VWD Express application with an App_Data folder. I am not able to proceed to use Xcopy and user instance to bring the 3 dbo tables of ChemDatabase to my App_Data folder. Please help and give me some detailed procedures/instructions to bring the 3 dbo tables of ChemDatabase (or ChemDatabase itself) from the SQL Server Management Studio Express to the App_Data folder of the website of my VWD Express project?
Thanks in advance,

hello,
I have a question about opening files in the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.
In the old Query Analyzer from SQL 2000 I can open SQL Files via drag & drop (from explorer to QA) or open it with a double click in the explorer. Then the Files opened, if I had actual a connection to a server / database (QA is stared with one file and has a connection to Server/Datebase), with this connection.
Now in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Management Studio I'll be asked everytime for Server and have to get the database from the database list - it does not connect automaticly to server/database, that is actual connected (I have opened a file with the connection and a connected database in the object explorer).
Someone do not have this problem - but we found no option to set it up.
Any ideas?
thanks &
best regards,
Christian Kiedels

Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus

Hi all,
For the first time, I want to set up the configuration of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to allow me in doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. The SSMSE and VB 2005 Express are in my Windows XP Pro PC that is part of our NT 4 LAN System in our office. I read the article "How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remotre connections" in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277/ about (i) "Enable remote connections for SQL Server 2005 Express", (ii) Enable the SQL Server Browser service", (iii) Create exception in Windows Firewall, and (iv) Create an exception for the SQL Server Browser service in Windows Firewall. I entered the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and I could not decide what options I should take for doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. I have the following questions on the page of "Minimize SQL Server 2005 Surface Area":
(1) I saw "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]". I clicked on [change computer] and I saw the
following: Select Computer
The Surface Area Configuration of this surface area of this computer or a remote computer.
Specify a computer to configure: O Local computer
O Remote computer
Should I choose the "Local computer" or the "Remote computer" option?
(2) Below the "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]",
I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connections", Select a component and then configure its services and connections: |-| SQLEXPRESS
|-| Database Engine
Service
I picked => Remote Connection
On the right-hand side, there are: O Local connections only
O Local and remorte connections
O Using TCP/IP
O Using named pipes only
O Using both TCP/IP and named pipes
Should I choose O Local and remorte connections and O Using named pipes only?
Please help and tell me what options I should choose in (1) and (2).
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

However i recently started playing around with the SQL Server Management Studio Express program. When i attach my database to Management Studio, and try to run my program it crashes. I think it might be a permissions error?!? When i detatch it and reattach it in visual studio it runs fine again. Any suggestions? ThanksJason

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?
Regards,
Shuja.

Hi, I'm completely new to SQL Server and ASP.NET, so please bear with me on my learning curve! I've installed Visual Web Developer Express and SQL Server Express (on the same PC). I then used Web Developer Express to successfully create a new database with a couple of tables in it. So far so good. I then installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the same PC and tried to connect to my new database. The connection to the SQL Server instance appears to work OK (using Windows Authentication) but I can't see the database I previously created. All I can see are the System Databases. Does anyone know what the solution might be?

I have installed 2 SQL Server 2005 Express sample databases from 2 books, ASPnet 2.0 and ADOnet 2.0. The ASPNETDB.MDF was shown in App_Data and Database Explorer, but not in the SQL Server Management Studio Express. The AdoStepBy Step database created by a ConfigDB.exe was displayed in the Management Studio, but not in the App_Data, or Database Explorer.
Is this the way SQL Server 2005 runs the 2005 databases for SQL Server 2005 Express only? Or also in SQL Server 2005?
TIA,

Hi all,
In the last one and half years, I used the Northwind Database in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to learn the programming of SqlConnections, Data sources, Database Exploere, ADO.NET 2.0, etc. via VB 2005 Express.
The Northwind Database in my SSMSE got lost very often, but I was not aware of it. How can I know where the Northwind Database is used or processed by my VB 2005 Express projects that were the examples of some tutorial books or my trial projects? How can I release the Northwind Database back to my SSMSE from the VB 2005 Express projects? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

I want to create an SQLCLR project "HelloWorld" by Connecting to SQL Express User Instances in Management Studio via VB 2005 Express. But I am still not sure how to get it started, because I do not understand the following things:
(1) Pipe Name for a User Instance, (2) Enabling (or Disabling) the CLR by using Transact-SQL, (3) Creating a Transact-SQL script, (4) Creating an Assembly, (5) Creating a backup device, etc. I need to see some simple examples of SQLCLR by Connecting to SQL Express User Instances in Management Studio via VB 2005 Express. Please help and tell me where in the websites I can find them.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

HiI am using SQL Server Management Studio Express to make my databases but I noticed if I make my database in Visual studios and go new Item and make a new database I see it in app_data folder and server express tab and if I make it in SQL Server Management Studio Express I only see it in the server explorer. So if I have to move my files to another computer how do I move my database easly with SQL Server Management Studio Express? Since when you make it with the visual studio the file gets stored with all the other files of your project so if you move it all to another computer you prob won't run into a problem. So how do I make it that so I can do everything in SQL Server Management Studio Express(since I like working in it) then export it into a file that I can then go into my app_data folder and add it is an exist item? Thanks

How do I set up a database snapshot and backup the database for Windows Server Update Services 3.0, that uses the "desktop" version of SQL server on the same server running Widows Server 2003? There does not seem to be a "Management Plans" sub-folder under the "management" folder in the Management Studio Express console- so that's probably my first request- how do I establish a "Management Plans" subfolder, then how do I (step-by-step) set up a backup of the SUSDB?

Hi all,
Long time ago, I downloaded the Northwind and pubs databases from the Microsoft website (I do not remember the details of it) and installed these two databases together into the SQL Server Management Studio Express of my PC (Microsoft Windows XP Pro). I tried to learn an example of using "User Instance" (source code was from a book) on the Northwind database located in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. I just find out that my Northwind database has the title only and no tables at all. If I click on the "+" in front of the "Northwind", I got the following error message:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
Failed to retrieve data for this request.(Microsoft SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)
Additional information:
One or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from backup. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5173)..
Please help and tell me how I can repair this Northwind database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express.

P. S.
I deleted the name 'Northwind' in my SQL Server Management Studio Express, executed the "SQL2005DBScriptsInstnwind" program and I got the following error message: Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
