Scripting (and Saving) .sdf File
May 5, 2008
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.

I am scripting a DTS Package using VB. The problem I am having is that I get the following error when I execute the package from Visual Basic:
Step Error Source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services Flat File Rowset Provider
Step Error Description:Incomplete file format information - file cannot be opened.
In the DTS Designer when I open the DataPump Transformation and click on the Destination tab I am prompted With the Define Columns dialog. I define the columns and click execute. The package works properly after doing this when executed from Enterprise Manager. Does anyone know how to script the file definition creation??? I have searched high and low through BOL and other resources and am not finding anything. I doesn't seem like it should be this hard to figure out so, maybe I am missing something.

What would be the best way to create a routine that performs the "Script <object> as Create To File" for multiple objects in my database??
I would like a separate file for each object (table, view, or stored procedure).
Could someone point me in the right direction??
Thanks,
Paul

Hi!
I'm trying to do the following in a batch-file:
1) Install SQLExpress unattended providing settings in an .ini-file
2) Run an osql-command which creates a database and some tables etc.
My batch-script looks like the following:
REM Install SQLExpress
start /wait .SQLExpresssetup.exe /qb /settings %CD%mysettings.ini
osql -S (local)MyExpress -U sa -P passwd -i .createdb.sql
...
The problem is that the SQLExpress setup updates the %PATH%, but the change is not visible in my cmd-context . So, the osql-command fails.
It seems like I have to start a new cmd-window from the windows shell to get the updated environment.
Is there any way to make the environment changes visible to my script?
This might be more a sort of general batch-programming topic, but any help is appreciated. :)
Regards,
Sigurd Ringbakken

Hi to all
Is there any option in sql server DTS or any other third party tool that can script data. By scripting data i mean that....
if a table "Employee" contains 50 rows, i want the tool to write 50 insert queries for me so that i can run in it anywhere.
Problem is i have to insert data in a remote server where i cannot use DTS. I just have a text area to write my query and press the run button..
Hope u understand my problem. In case of any explanation please reply. Waiting for your response. Thanx in advance.

I was going to go about on saving them to sql, but when I started researching I found that it is not a good idea to use sql for videos?

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.

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

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.....

I have a trade data tables (about 10) and I need to retrieve information based on input parameters. Each table has about 3-4 million rows.
The table has columns like Commodity, Unit, Quantity, Value, Month, Country
A typical query I use to select data is "Select top 10 commodity , sum(value), sum(quantity) , column4, column5, column6 from table where month=xx and country=xxxx"
The column4 = (column2)/(total sum of value) and column 5=(column3)/(total sum of quantity). Column6=column5/column4.
It takes about 3-4 minutes for the query to complete and its a lot of time specially since I need to pull this information from a webpage.
I wanted to know if there is an alternate way to pull the data from server ?
I mean can I write a script that creates tables for all the input combinations i.e month x country (12x228) and save them in table (subtable-table) with a naming convention so from the web I can just pull the table with input parameters mapped to name convention and not running any runtime queries on database ??
OR
Can I write a script that creates a html files for each table for all input combinations save them ?
OR
Is there exists any other solution ?
