I've got a SQL Server hardware Replacement to do. This server has a merge replication setup on it which was setup by a contractor.
Do i have to do the configurations manually when moving the replication bits across two servers or is there a different process involved ? I am just not sure how to approach this.
Hi everyone, I have some code that we need to migrate to SQL Server2005 from 2000, and I have a webpage that upon viewing, fires a queryto the SQL server using ISS and ISAPI. The result set is formatted fordisplay using XSLT. But since ISAPI is deprecated in SQL 2005, I waswondering how to migrate this.Thanks,

I have a table with the following data;
CREATE TABLE #Tab (Data Varchar(100))
INSERT INTO #Tab (Data)
Select 'Apple=5,Orange=10,Banana=11' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple=10,Orange=1033,Banana=0' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple = 120,Orange = 1,Banana = 112'
Select * from #Tab
How do I replace every value before the '=' but leave the comma.
Here is what the final output should look like
CREATE TABLE #TabFinal (Data Varchar(100))
INSERT INTO #TabFinal (Data)
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana' UNION ALL
Select 'Apple,Orange,Banana'
Select * from #TabFinal
Subject says it all, really. I want to start using Token Replacement,but do I break anything by enabling it? Do jobs that don't use tokensrequire any changes? I saw somewhere that it can't be turned off, soI'm paranoid about enabling it. Anything that I should be aware of?Many thanks.

We are debating whether to backup/restore the replicated databases or simply copy the mdf and ldf files accross and Attach them. The question is whether the replication information is retained for the publshed objects when the files are copied across? Alernatively, must we use backup/restore with KEEP_REPLICATION set for the restore?
We also plan to back up and restore the distribution, publication, master, msdb etc databases as well as rename the SQL Server to have the same name as the original.
Do these things need to happen in any particular order?
Does the timing of the renaming of the SQL Server matter?
At least some of the these operations (restoring the master database and renaming the SQL Server) need to be done in single user mode. Is is best to restore all the system databases in single user mode?
Lastly, is it necsssary (from a SQL Server point of viewpoint) to rename the computer to have the same name as the SQL Server?
Thanks,

I have a small client installable web application which used to work great on 32 bit machines. Well now clients are starting to use x64 Windows 2003 servers and things have begun to unravel. W2K3 x64 does not have any of the JET database drivers needed to communicate to the Access databases and it doesn't look like they're coming anytime soon.
Is SQL Server Express the new replacement for Access databases on x64 machines. Does Microsoft intend on moving some of the JET drivers over from 32 bit servers. I know that you can run IIS in 32 bit mode and everything is fine, but I can't ask everyone to do that.
Is SQL Server Express something that I can expect people to have installed, it sure doesn't sounds like it. After reading some posts, it sounds like it's a bit of a hastle to install.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Hello all,
I get some dates entered manually in french format in a varchar(255) field and want to convert that field in datetime. Since, Enterprise manager is warning me about a risk to loose information, I'm thinking about a way to update the french text in the corresponding english text before doing the conversion.
Example:
25-fév-08 (varchar(255)) has to become 25-feb-08 (datetime)
Could anybody help me, please?
Hello All!
I have a job that we wrote in SQL 2000 that loops through and finds all the orders pending verification and distributes them via emal to 100+ sales people every night. Each email is sent to the individual sales rep. I did this using sp_makewebtask and attaching the html file to an email and using a WHILE statement to loop thorugh all pending entries in sql.
I recently learned that sp_makewebtask is not going to be around for the next release and that I should use RSS for all future development.
Question: How can I achieve the same result outlined above using RS? How can I dynamically create and distribute HTML files?
I know that RS is xml based, but some pointer on how/where to start would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks....
I wish to replace column2 'ABC' value become blank.

So what should i modify with my logic and script?
Dear all,I need some help from all my Transact SQL Guru friends out there..Here is the scenario in its most simplified form.. ..I have two tables.. A(Lookup table) and B(Transaction Table)TableA FieldsEmployeeLocationIDEmployeeLocation (This could have values say"B","BO","BOM","C","CA","CALC") etc...TableB FieldsEmployeeIDEmployeeName.......EmployeeLocationID (will have null initially when rows are populatedfirst time)EmployeeLocation (This could have values"BA123","BOMBAY","BOTS123","BRACK".... etc)I hope you get where I am leading this to, from my examples..Requirement is to populate the EmployeeLocationID in Table B withEmployeeLocationID from TableA by matching the field EmployeeLocationin both tables.Please note that table B's EmployeeLocation could be A'sEmployeeLocation + some additionalcodes like "123","RACK" etc in theabove example...Therefore, this is what I had wrote initially..update Bset B.EmployeeLocationID =A.EmployeeLocationID

Hi,
Is there any replacement for BCP in Sql Server 2005 ?
Thanks

In the BOL, it states to replace DB_ID() with a valid database name when the compatibility level is 80 or below.
The original statement is:
SELECT
object_id AS objectid,
index_id AS indexid,
partition_number AS partitionnum,
avg_fragmentation_in_percent AS frag
INTO #work_to_do
FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats (DB_ID(), NULL, NULL , NULL, 'LIMITED')
WHERE avg_fragmentation_in_percent > 10.0 AND index_id > 0;
I replaced DB_ID() as follows but none worked:
DB_ID(N'pubs')
pubs
What should the syntax look like?
In VS 2003 I used SQLDMO (Com Object) to list all available SQL Servers. Is in SQL Server 2005 a managed .net Component that can do that task?Thanks,Rainer.

Hi,
We had to migrate from MS Access 2003 to SQL Server 2005 due to some project requirements.
We had used Forms, earlier, to enter data to the Access database.
I understand SS2005 doesnt support forms.
Can you suggest any other way of creating an equivalent entity as that of forms, so as to enable users to enter data to the SS 2005 DB easily.
Thanks in Advance for your help,

I started to thinkn about Microsoft really calculated checksum value.
This code is 100% compatible with MS original. That is, the result is identical.
You can use it "as is", or you can use it to see that MS function does not produce that unique values one could expect.
With text/varchar/image data, call with SELECT BINARY_CHECKSUM('abcdefghijklmnop'), dbo.fnPesoBinaryChecksum('abcdefghijklmnop')
With integer data, call with SELECT BINARY_CHECKSUM(123), dbo.fnPesoBinaryChecksum(CAST(123 AS VARBINARY))
I haven't figured out how to calculate checksum for integers greater than 255 yet.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnPesoBinaryChecksum
(
@Data IMAGE
)
RETURNS INT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE@Index INT,
@MaxIndex INT,
@SUM BIGINT,
@Overflow TINYINT
SELECT@Index = 1,
@MaxIndex = DATALENGTH(@Data),
@SUM = 0
WHILE @Index <= @MaxIndex
SELECT@SUM = (16 * @SUM) ^ SUBSTRING(@Data, @Index, 1),
@Overflow = @SUM / 4294967296,
@SUM = @SUM - @Overflow * 4294967296,
@SUM = @SUM ^ @Overflow,
@Index = @Index + 1
IF @SUM > 2147483647
SELECT @SUM = @SUM - 4294967296
RETURN @SUM
ENDActually this is an improvement of MS function, since it accepts TEXT and IMAGE data.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnPesoTextChecksum
(
@Data TEXT
)
RETURNS INT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE@Index INT,
@MaxIndex INT,
@SUM BIGINT,
@Overflow TINYINT
SELECT@Index = 1,
@MaxIndex = DATALENGTH(@Data),
@SUM = 0
WHILE @Index <= @MaxIndex
SELECT@SUM = (16 * @SUM) ^ ASCII(SUBSTRING(@Data, @Index, 1)),
@Overflow = @SUM / 4294967296,
@SUM = @SUM - @Overflow * 4294967296,
@SUM = @SUM ^ @Overflow,
@Index = @Index + 1
IF @SUM > 2147483647
SELECT @SUM = @SUM - 4294967296
RETURN @SUM

Hello everyone,
i'm using an excel source where i get my excel rows using a query, I'd like to replace possible null values with some other data(a zero value or a empty string for example), that's because i'm performing a transformation into a sql server table wich doesn't accept null values for some columns.
Is there any function to convert a null value to another one? I used the sql server's CASE function, but it didn't work. Any suggestions?
thanks a lot.
Hello,
We recently upgraded from MS SQL 2000 to MS SQL 2005 and unfortunetly Speed Ferret (current version) is not compatible with 2005.
I wrote Black Moshannon Systems and it looks like we are months away from a release that will work with MS SQL 2005.
Does anyone know of a good search utility that works with MS SQL 2005?
I am trying to get details out of targetinstance from a WMI alert, using Token Replacement in the job step.
The alert fires properly.
The WQL query for the alert is:
select * from __InstanceModificationEvent within 300 where targetinstance ISA 'Win32_LogicalDisk' and TargetInstance.DriveType = 3 and TargetInstance.Freespace < 44832876928
However, I can't get the WMI info out from the alert - everything I've read says it's within TargetInstance, but I don't see how to use the WMI call for it. I'm specifically looking for DeviceID In the job step, I've tried multiple variations. Only the __CLASS has worked, and that's because it's not within TargetInstance.Â
set @mybody = '$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(WMI(DeviceID)))'
set @mybody = '$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(WMI(TargetInstanceDeviceID)))'
set @mybody = '$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(WMI(__CLASS)))'
set @mybody = '$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(WMI(TargetInstance.DeviceID)))'
Has anyone come accorss such a beast or will I need to write one!

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
