Saving A Database Into An Importable File Format
Nov 28, 2006
I am brand new to SQL. Have limited coding experience w/ Visual Basic and database ops w/ Access.
I have come into possession of a SQL 2005 database. The problem is that the designer tried to re-invent the wheel and code a very very poor LMS back end for tracking and reporting. I would like, if possible, to save the database and as far as I am aware - should be able to import into Access and generate statistics and reports to my hearts content.
I have tried w/out success to save the database going through SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Any help or information that could be provided would be appreciated. Any additional information that I can provide, please let me know.
Thanks - Will

I have 3 dropdownlist server controls on my webform for the dateofbirth field. One for the day("1", "2" format), one for the month ("Jan", "Feb" format) and one for the year("1994", "1995" format). When the submit button server control is clicked i need to concatenate the day, month and year in the format 01-jan-1994 since i have the dateofbirth field datatype as datetime in my sql server table. I have declared the date variable stored procedure as "@dateofbirth datetime". Provide me the full coding.
Thanx in advance

I would like to extract a file from a database. The file is stored in a BLOB format
Can I extract the BLOB file from the database using an SQL code/command or is there another way in which I can extract the file?
The file is stored as a BLOB but is actually a ZIP file (if that makes any difference)
What is the normal method of extracting a BLOB file?

Hi
I have to populate some datas from sql server database and display it directly in a CSV Format or CSV file. When i run the project it should provide me an option to whether open or save or cancel the file. when i click open it should be opened and be viewed in a excel sheet in CSV format and when i click save it should ask the destination folder and should be saved there in CSV format and when i click cancel it should be cancelled and the application should be closed. pls note that all these actions should happen in the same browser and should not be redirected to anyother page. Can anybody give me the detailed description and code in Asp.Net using C# .It's very Urgent.

Hi All,
I am stuck at one place, where I have to convert CSV format file data into SAP IDOC format file. In SSIS we don't have any such SAP adapter (though we have .NET Data Provider for mySAP suite [SSIS SAP Adapter] but this is still not fully supported by Microsoft, plus it doesn't have feature to convert data into IDOC format) that can do this. Can someone here please provide me some pointers on any third party adapters available in market to do this job or if anyone has already developed some custom approach to achieve this task?
Your quick response on this is highly appreciated.
Regards,

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.
Cheers ~ J

I am storing my Compact Database .sdf file in Team Foundation Server while we develop on it. It is really frustrating that it is stored as a binary file. (This means that only one developer at a time can effectively work on it.)
I have yet to find a way to script objects from the .sdf file. Is there a way? I would like to find a way to store this file as SQL so that my team can work on it simultaneously and scripting it and storing it seems the best way.
If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them.

Hi, I'm a first time user at reporting services and in dire need of some help, I'm having a real hard time finding the information I need.
I have made two reports in Business Intelligence Development Studio that access a sql database and I can deploy them and see them at http://localhost/reports etc.
What I wan't to do is be able to "trigger" the reports to be built from a schedule (e.g. every 8 hour on weekdays, every 12 hours on weekends but should be able to be changed) and after built to be saved to a html file.
I also need to set the sql query for the dataset before generating the report (select * from table where DateTimeType between This and That).
Anyway, I'm completely lost on how to achive this and would greatly appreciate and tips or pointers to where the information can be found.
Kindest Regards

hello,I am building a web page in asp.net 2.0 and i'm looking for a way to save various files uploaded by users (such as doc, pdf, cs, txt .... whatever). Obviously the normal way would be to store it on the filesystem of the web server (or any other middleware server).But I am asking if there is a way to store these files in the database, and not affect too much of the performance of the web page?I know a picture can be stored easily, but what about all the other file types? I would appreciate if someone can spead light of the subject.Thanks,Tranquil.

so i wrote this script and its pretty sweet (tara helped me before on this one) but now, for some STRANGE reason and its been reported by users the following:
the script for example dumps "first name, last name"
when we save the results as a CSV it looks good in notepad...
"first name, last name"
but we kept getting some kind of stange issues when we tried to dump that CSV data into another program to use... so i opened the CSV file in command prompt to see what it really looks like and it is actually "f i r s t n a m e , l a s t n a m e" with all these unnecessary spaces! why is it saving the CSV with spaces in it when my script is nothing of the sort? it was working fine last week, no changes were made to the script but now the CSV's are rendering those weird spaces.

Hi
Report created in VS has some data in the page header, but when report is saved to pdf file that data disappears in page header. The data in page header that disappear are the ReportItems taken from detail line of a table in the report body. This problem started as a result of converting existing report from sql server/VS 2003 to qsl server/VS 2005.
Before conversion, report saved to Adobe pdf file showed all data. What could be the problem?
Thank you
Appreciate your help

I'm trying to import a tab separated text file into sql server 2005 using the import guide. But when running the job I get the error message
Error 0xc02020c5: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed while converting column "Column 19" (67) to column "Column 19" (404). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
The column 19 which reported a problem contains this information:
?searchroot=/_gen_/txt/&template=std.htm&use=prospect&intref=1_26067
However what is mysterious is that if I open the file in notepad or Excel and resave it again the job runs perfectly. This is not a way we could make it work later on since it's an automatic job that will run each night on a new text file.
The text file is sent from Norway to Sweden - and I use ANSI latin 1 when importing.
The column has datatype DT_STR with a width of 500.
I use Locale Swedish and when I save in Notepad it is saved in ANSI,
I use Windows XP Swedish version.

Hello everyone
I'm very new to SSIS and seemed to have stumbled into an expected problem. I'm working on a package that was converted from a DTS package and I have a problem with the Flat File Connection manager. I want to change the file name in my connection, but I do not seem to be able to save the change. After clicking "OK" to save the name change I can then save the package, close BIDS, open everything up again and for some reason the "old" filename is still present in the connection. Note that the "new" file has exactly the same layout as the "old" file, just a different name. And I can oreview the data without any difficulty.
Any ideas on this one...?
Thanks, John

Hi Guys,
I am trying to automate a basic task using SQL Server 2005 Express.
Currently I have a query script that I run and then save the results as a CSV file. I need to do this on a daily basis and so I am looking to find out how best to go about this. There are a multitude of third party tools that claim to be able to do this - can anyone recommend this or enlighten me of the best way to set up this automation.
All ideas gratefully received!

during period of troubles connecting to Local Servers and Sites location i.e., to [URL], the place where all Reports are saved by default, I have continued to work on some Reports that have been saved to file system of my localhost/developing machine. But, upon recovery of http location, I can not see/open those files?
how to approach those files in order to open them in Report Builder 3.0 and thus, to "save as" them to the http location? Seems that Report Builder has chosen that location, by default, somehow.....

Hey All,
Similar to a previous post (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=244646&SiteID=1), I am trying to import data into a SQL Table.
I am trying to program a small application that will import product data obtained through suppliers via CD-ROM. One supplier in particular uses Fixed width colums, and data looks like this:
Example of Data
0124015Apple Crate 32.12
0124016Bananna Box 12.56
0124017Mango Carton 15.98
0124018Seedless Watermelon 42.98
My Table would then have:
ProductID as int
Name as text
Cost as money
How would I go about extracting the data with an XML Format file? I am stumbling over how to tell it where to start picking up data for a specific column.
Is there any way that I could trim the Name column (i.e.: "Mango Carton " --> "Mango Carton")?
I don't know if it makes any difference, but I've been calling SQL from my code by doing this:
Code in C# Form
SqlConnection SqlConnection = new SqlConnection(global::SQLClients.Properties.Settings.Default.ClientPhonebookConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO PhonebookTable(Name, PhoneNumber) VALUES('" + txtName.Text.ToString() + "', '" + txtPhoneNumber.Text.ToString() + "')";
cmd.Connection = SqlConnection;
SqlConnection.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlConnection.Close();
RefreshData();
I am running Visual Studio C# Express 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005.
Thanks for your time,
Hayden.
