If this has been discussed before i apologise as i am fairly new to the asp forum and was not sure where to search for threads.
I am upgrading to a new web plan that supports asp and i noticed that godaddy supports all of the above databases. I was curious if there are any advantages to using one db over the others as far as web is concerned?
What i am looking to do is handle guestbook, logins for registered users which would control access to certain downloads and possibly pages as well. And it was also advised that i look into using a database to store and display dynamic information in my master page to only show the updated information instead of a complete new page each time. This would save on having to manage so many pages.
So i would really appreciate any advice on the databases as i will be making my decision to go with a specific web host based on this. I would also appreciate any advice on a good web host for asp and database support.
Hi all, We have access database with lots of data in it. I want to move all the dat to the new database which has completely differenet database structure (e.g different tables, different rows). What I was thinking is that there are 2 ways. one is manually, which will take long tome probably, and the other is to rum queries that will move the data from access to the new sql express. The question is how to that. I know that I used onw CSV files exported for ms access, but now the queries will be much more complex and I will use more then one table for te query. How can I query from 2 different databases, which from one I read data(access), and from the other I write data (express)? Thanks alot.
Hey people,I have to convert MS Access 2000 database into mysql database, the wholething being part of this project I'm doing for one of my facultyclasses. My professor somehow presumed I knew db's and gave me long listof things to do with that particular database, first thing being thatparticular conversion. Truth is that I don't know a first thing aboutdb's, let alone using mysql... I downloaded mysql form www.mysql.com andstill searching for MS Access 2000 (it doesn't work with 2003 I have,or I don't know how to make it work).Any kind of help will be welcomed and highly appreciated!!!Thanks,Mario
Where can I go to get information on supported features on Express?
I had heard that express does not support functions.
I have a dotnet application that is connecting to Access and the client wants to go to either mysql or express and I am looking for a pro or con on both. I usually use SQL2000 but I am wondering if there is a limit on the size of the database for express. Which is not a concern for about year but will be an issue after that.
I have tried the upsize wizard from access 2000 and access 2003 and get records transfer in 90% of the tables I have data stored an 89 meg MS access database (2003) on an XP machine. I can use, compact and copy etc in MS Access without problem.
With the upsize, I get No errors, just does not reliably move ALL data. I have run it multiple times and occasionally get some data in these tables, but never all data in a few tables and inconsistent.
========================================
So I have written code to copy the data from the access database and move it field by field into an Upsized database that was structure only, no data.
I have ONLY one Identity field (autonumber in MS access) that is the Key Relationship number to all other tables.
1 questions and one "bug" report need solutions to both.
Question: How can I copy the value from the MS access autonumber field to the identity field. (Some of the autonumber rows have been deleted so not always sequentiall) (I can do this moving data in code between to MS access databases that have autonumber fields)
=========================
I tied an elaborate write around to addNEW and then read the data in the newly created row. Reading the Identity field, I look up that number in the MS access database. Then I copy the ACCESS data to the Newly created table row in SQL Exress and update.
It works fine for about 30 record updates, then the Identify field stops giving me the correct sequence for the Identity field value. Makes it impossible to make sure all of my Access rows get copied. Tried transactions but not supported with the ADODB configuration, but doubt that would help.
Example data returned in the SQL Express recordset, when I read the Identify field back I get
1,2,3 etc 31, 33, 32 (out of sequence) then it (my code) can't figure out the out of sequence and end up with the next identity value at 41.
The only info I found was that it could be a cursorlocation problem, what do you recommend?
?Is there a way in code to change the identity field to string, then copy the data and change back to identity field again?
At the moment i have a piece of software that uses Access to store the data into a number of tables.
I am developing a new piece of software that has been built around SQL express and need to upgrade users that are using access. I have managed to write the installation to install etc and also the start of a script to insert all of the tables. I cant work out how to get the data into SQL express using a script.
Basically the access db (CentralDb) will be stored a a given location C:Program FilesCentralDB.mdb
The tables within the SQL version are indentical to access but i need a way of pulling out the information stored and putting it into SQL, and as there is no DTS i am becoming stuck on how to automate the process.
I am using Mysql ODBC 3.51 and/or 5.1 connection . this works fine with DTS But it hangs when I use with SSIS ... MS Visual Studio is giving message like " MS Visual Studio is Busy"
Dear SirI am using SQL Server express edition for my database.i have downloaded sql server mangement studio also .i have my data in access(.mdb) i want to import those data to my sqlserver express .One option i am using using odbc datasource but it doesnot take care for my constraints applied i.e primarykey,indexing no duplicate etc, .Any way if can do it again also in sql server express but the problem is when i try to do it with 2 lacs of data it shows error "time expires " ..Can any body tell how to upload data to an existing table of sql server .since i could not find DTS in express edition.Thanks and regardsmukesh
I have created a web site using visual web developer (free download) The website was created using asp.net 2.0. The vwd I have incorporated the cool new roles and membership features of asp.net 2.0. When i did this vwd automatically created a sql express database (aspnetdb.mdf) to hold the login stuff.
I then purchased som e web hosting from a company and found out that they only support MySQL databases.
My questions are;
1. Can anyone tell me the difference between the two types of database (i know what sql express is but am not sure what MySQL is)
2. Secondly, is there a tool or way I can convert the SQL Express database to a MySQL database?
i have a website project making an online catalog, maybe 20 categories, a few hundred items. the small business starter kit looked perfect to jump start this. the client has provided an access database with the two table for categories and products. i've got the dts wizard installed and have been trying to import the access data into the sbsk database but i'm stuck. i'm almost positive that ONE time when i was banging around with the dts wizard, the Edit Mapping screen would let me drop down a list of fields in the destination table so I could actually tell it which field data from the source i wanted to go into which field of the destination. Of course it didn't succeed that time and now i can't seem to figure a way to get back to having the option to choose the destination fields, all it gives me in the drop down is "<ignore>" or the field name of the source table, which of course doesn't match any of the ones that are in the sbsk. i've been back through it for a couple days, trying different ways, migrating the data first to sql, letting it try a transfer to a new table then trying to import that, moving both out to excel, aligning the data manually and trying to import that, etc. i'm bout out of ideas and would sure like to get back to just trying to work out the data type alignment issues with whatever it was i did when i could choose the destination table's fields. i'd be most appreciative if anyone has a clue what i'm talking about and can put me back on track. matthew
I have to export data from SQL Server 2005 express to Access database. I have done many import/export using DTS package via SQL 2000. I don't have BI installed in my SQL SERVER 2005 Express. I understand that I have to use SSIS for sql server 2005. Any help is greatly appreciated.
im trying to develop a web application that uses a backend database, however im not quite sure what db backend to use. What are the diffrence between sql server express and mysql.. which is better to use in terms of small enterprises.? what are their limits..?
I am trying to migrate from MySQL 4.1 to MS SQL Express 2005 1. do i need to create an empty db under Express 2. can this be done from within Express by pulling from MySQL into Express or do I need to work from command lines 3. what would be the cleanest way to approach this
I have a MySQL dump and did look at the result from within Express, but it was not an import, I would like to find a way to import if possible that data. Table by table would be fine.
After downloading Express my SQL erver Express I can't seem to launch it.
From the Start Menu I have Programs -> Microsoft Server 2005 -> Configuration Tools then a choice of 3 programs (none of these seem to be the actual program for creating databases etc)
.
There were no problems / errors during the installation.
I'm trying to upsize an Access database to SQL 2005 Express. When I follow the wizard and I've tried all ways of connecting to the database I get the following error
Connection failed SQL State '01000' SQL Server Error 53 [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB] ConnectionOpen()). Connection failed SQL State '08001' SQL Server Error 17 [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB] SQL Server does not exist or access denied
I've tried using local host and typing the exact server connection string from the SQL Express Management tool and nothing is working
How come I can't do this? Everyone says this is easy and straight forward -- not for me.
so as you can see i want to migrate from My SQL 5.0 to MS SQL Express. Is there any free tool provided by microsoft or something else i could to use to migrate my databases. I need this cause old web page was developed on PHP and now it's redeveloped on ASP.NET and i have very strange issues with ASP.NET and MySQL Lots of incompatibility and performace degradation, so i would like to try out MS SQL i think it must be better.
I'm planning to transport a desktop application to the web. A spin-off ofthis application has already been put on the web by another programmer. Heused ColdFusion with MS SQL, Access, VC, and Java. It is faster than thedesktop application (written in VFP).1. Can I get the same results using MS SQL Express Advanced and Access forthe internet version if used with .net?2. Are the select statements limited in power, accuracy, size, etc. for MSSQL Express Advanced when compared to SQL?3. If Access will perform poorly, can VFP be used instead with .net? Ialready know it can't be used with ColdFusion. 4. If MS Express Advancedwill not sufficiently replace SQL, will MySQL do the job better?Thanks
I am working on two versions of an application, one of which will be awindows forms application (which will need to be redistributable) andthe other will be a web application.I have MS Visual Studio 2005 (along with the developer's edition of MSSQL Server), but not MS Access. I also have MySQL, PostgreSQL, Sun'sapplication server, Tomcat and Apache web server. I am working onWindows XP Pro, and have installed the .NET 3 SDK and all relevantrelated products I could find (e.g. 2 extensions packages for VisualStudio).I have one MS Access database, to which my users should have read onlyaccess. I have, and have used, a tool for importing MS Accessdatabases into MySQL. I expect that SQL Server has a similar utilityhidden somewhere (where I haven't yet looked, though I HAVE beenlooking - obviously in the wrong places). I have located a similarutility for importing MS Access databases into PostgreSQL. I have notyet decided which servers to use for the web version, but that isanother story, for which I may raise another thread in due course (butI welcome suggestions which may reduce the effort required givenrequired effort for the windows forms app).My problem is for the windows form aplication (intended for use by asingle family). I expect to use ADO.NET. The question is, should Iimport the Access database into MS SQL, and redistribute it, along withMS SQL Server Express (or is that necessary), or distribute it just asan Access database and use the jet engine to access it. A relatedquestion is, "Does ADO.NET support creating new databases for a givenengine?" Imagine a recipe database. It is easy enough to create a SQLscript that creates all the required tables, indices, foreign keys,&c., but can I submit that SQL script to an ADO.NET object, along witha file name, and have it create, e.g., an Access database with thesupplied name. Or do I have to create a database file with nothing init other than the schema?I have more questions, but they'll have to wait.ThanksTed
Has anyone successfully used cherry's oledb provider for MYSQL to create a linked server from MS SQLserver 2005 to a Linux red hat platform running MYSQL.
I can not get it to work.

I am looking for a way to migrate my data from a MySQL database to a SQL2005 Express data base. All of my MySQL Schemas only have 1 or 2 tables in them so I would imagine that it isn't that hard to do. I treid just exporting it to a CSV file with the intention of just using import/export in MSSQL but in the express edition, it ain't there. Like I stated all of my schemas are only 1 or two tables none are linked in any way they are independant table and the most records any one of the tables contain is around 250. Any suggestions?
I'm trying to re-write my database to de-couple the interface (MS Access) from the SQL Backend. As a result, I'm going to write a number of Stored Procedures to replace the MS Access code. My first attempt worked on a small sample, however, trying to move this on to a real table hasn't worked (I've amended the SP and code to try and get it to work on 2 fields, rather than the full 20 plus).It works in SQL Management console (supply a Client ID, it returns all the client details), but does not return anything (recordset closed) when trying to access via VBA code.The Stored procedure is:-
USE [VMSProd] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [Clients].[vms_Get_Specified_Client] Script Date: 22/09/2015 16:29:59 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
Unable to open the physical file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatacartracker.mdf". Operating system error 32: "32(error not found)". An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatacartracker.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
I am using Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition along with SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
Now here's what I did:
Rather than use the Database Explorer within VB2005 EE to create my database, I thought I would try creating my database externally using the downloadable "SQL Server Management Studio Express" tool. (I figured that if I had a stable data model for my database, I could side-step the copying/overwriting issues that come with creating a database as part of a VB solution.)
So having gotten my database setup and populated with some sample data, I am now trying to connect to it from Visual Basic. In VB (in the context of working on a VB Solution), I do the following:
Select Add New Data Source... from the Data menu to bring up the Data Source Configuration Wizard. Choose "Database" for the data source type and click Next. Click "New Connection..." to bring up the Add Connection dialogue.
For data source I choose "Microsoft SQL Server Database File", with ".NET Framework Data Provider..." as the data provider. Navigate to my existing database file (in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData" folder). Use Windows Authentication.
When I click "Test Connection" or just click "OK", i get the Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition error shown at the top of this message.
Is this occuring because I'm trying to access my database as an .MDF file rather than through Named Pipes / Shared Memory / TCP/IP? If this is the case, is there any way that I can tell VB2005 EE to use Named Pipes / Shared Memory / TCP/IP? Is this a fundamental limitation of VB2005 EE?
Thanks in advance to the guru who is able to explain this to me...
Hi All, We will replace our website which currently build in php and mysql into .net and sql server 2005. What is the best way to migrate all the user account from current database in mysql into sql server, also considering that there is different database table and fields? Thanks in advance.
problem is I don't have unfettered access to the MS SQL Server(7), so I need to send instructions on how to do it to a client.
After reading up a little, I figured "select view into ##tmp_table", and then dump the table, which, if I'm right, means I'll have an SQL dump that I can quite easily import into MySQL.
Problem,: What's the syntax to dump that temp table, or is there a better way to import the data into MySQL
I'm trying to import data from mySQL database to SQL server 2005. I installed mySQL odbc driver (3.51) and configured system DSN. However when I start SQL server import/export wizard mysql is not an option in data source dropdown. What do I miss?
