Store FILES In SQL Express 2005 With VB.NET
Feb 8, 2007
Hi, I'm a beginner with VB.NET and SQL and I would like to store files (like Images, Document...) in a Table of SQL but I have no idea how to do it.
This is my connection string, and examples of how I do queries, please help me...
Private cn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection
Private cn2 As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
cn.ConnectionString = stringa
cn.Open()
cn2 .Connection = cncn2
CommandType = CommandType.Text
Dim ESEGUI As String
cn2 .CommandText = "INSERT INTO users (nickname) values ('Paolo')
ESEGUI = cn2 .ExecuteNonQuery()
Dim oDr As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
cn2 .CommandText = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE Nickname like 'Paolo'"
oDr = cn2 .ExecuteReader
Thanks

Hi There,
I have installation program which can Install MSDE 2000 base on the user input.
If user does not want to install it, I ill install SQL-DMO redistributable files, so during installation User can pick server location where database will be installed.
Now I want to upgrade to SQL 2005 Express and I want to perform the same steps. Where I can find SQL-DMO redistribution files for SQL 2005 Express ?
Thank you for you help.

Hello,I'm looking for a tutorial or some sample code to save a file in sql server with c#. So far I have not been able to find a anything I could use as most tutorials are in VB. I'm using the varbinary max type to store the file. The part I need help with is selecting the file and converting it using the Stream object, not the SQL insert statements. Thanks,Arnold

I created a mdf file but couldnt for the life of me install it into SQL Sever Express [and when I say install i mean attach]. When I used SQL Server Ent, I had no issues. The only warning I got was that my mdf file was used by another process when I tried to attach with VS 2005 [ which is correct because ent had it]. I think mdf files are pretty touchy. Does anyone have any good articles on best practices? It seems you cant have a db with the same name as your attachment [ which would make sense] or have mdf files in the Data directory of your SQL Server instance you are trying to attach to. You will get the unc share error if you do. I think I need to start using user Instances but I could be wrong. You cant use them in ent but maybe i will solve my issue with attaching db files to express. I noticed that by default express doesnt install in mix auth mode and there might be some issues with access. How does everyone else normally install their mdf files for quick deployment [ say you want to deploy your db with your app so that users can quickly get started] ?

Hello,
I am using the full version of sql server 2005 management studio to attempt to attach sql express mdf files to sql server 2005.
I was using the databases from an ASP.NET commerce starter kit in sql express. I want to update to sql server 2005, so i detached the dbs.
i deleted the sql express management studio ctp and installed sql server 2005 from the free 6 month trial available online.
I then attempted to attach the sql express files to sql server 2005 and get the following error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------
Attach database failed for Server '<servername>'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=9.00.1399.00&EvtSrc=Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.ExceptionTemplates.FailedOperationExceptionText&EvtID=Attach+database+Server&LinkId=20476

For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=602&LinkId=20476
I also tried with the original mdf files i had downloaded without making any changes.
any help here?
thank you,

Alright I'm using Visual Studio 2005 with SP1 and SQL Server Express 2005. I've downloaded all the updates on Windows Update. I'm joining a project late and trying to get the C#/SQL web-app up and running. My project manager has it built with Visual Studio 2005 pro and a full blown corporate license for the SQL server, but I don't have access to the SQL server quite yet.
When I try to open the "LLRCWEB.sln" file I receive the following error:
"The application for project 'C:Documents and Settings......LLRCSQL.dbp' is not installed.
Make sure the application for the project type (.dbp) is installed."
Has anyone encountered this problem before? Are there any plug-ins or particular application versions you know are required to handle '.dbp' files, or will I have to Install Visual Studio 2005 Pro and get access to the SQL server?
Any input would be greatly appreciated

Anyone know of a good "free" way to back up web files and SQL Server 2005 Express Database?
I was able to use Windows Server 2003 Backup utility to back up the folder where the Databases were stored, as well as the web files, with no errors.
But I have heard a lot of discussion that you can't just simply backup SQL Server data files?
I'm wondering how sound the backup I've created is...
Any suggestions?

Hi, I am trying to open or create a sqlexpress database within Visual Studio 2005 Professional in the App_Data folder. If I attempt either method, I get the following dialog box:Required Components MissingConnections to SQL Server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=49251 The link above just takes you to the download page for Sql Server Express 2005. I have both SQL Server 2005 Developer and SQL Server 2005 Expression instances running. The existing database will work properly in my web application, however I cannot access it through Visual Studio.As background, I did have a problem connecting to the database via the web application, receiving a "Failed to generate a User Instance of SQL Server" error. But I was able to fix that by renaming my SQLEXPRESS folder in C:Documents and SettingsuserLocal SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server Data. When the web page ran, it created another SQLEXPRESS folder.However, I cannot figure out why I am having the other issue.Thanks in advancePatrick

Can multiple instances of SQL 2005 Express attach to the same database files on a network share? I have seen this done before with MSDE where the database files are stored on the server, but instead of having a SQL server running on the network and then connecting to it, only the database files exist on the network share and the users connect through MSDE running on the local machine. Is this possible with SQL2005Express? I do not have the ability to share an SQL instance from one workstation to another nor do I have the ability to install an instance on the corporate server. Is it as simple as creating the database and storing the files on the share then attaching the database to the SQL Instance on each workstation?

I am almost done with a simple page to have a user select a file (using the FileUpload object), give it a short description and associate it with an item from a listbox. Thensave these pieces of data to a new row in a SQL DB.
My issue...
The SQLSmd.ExecuteNonQuery FAILS...
I have got all the fields able to connect and almost save... but for the actual "document" field errors out. The user can select any type of file (image, word, excel, Powerpoint, etc) for storage into the DB. I am not storing a referance to a file or the path to a file but the actual file in SQL.In the DB I have the field (Document) set to a type of VarBinary(8000) in the table. Here is thethe corrisponding code in my app...
Dim bArray As Byte...bArray = FileUpload1.PostedFile.InputStream.ReadByte()... SQLCmd.Parameters.Add("@Document", Data.SqlDbType.VarBinary, 8000).Value = bArray...iReturn = SQLCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
ERRORThe first section of the stact trace...
[InvalidCastException: Invalid cast from 'System.Byte' to 'System.Byte[]'.] System.Convert.DefaultToType(IConvertible value, Type targetType, IFormatProvider provider) +867 System.Byte.System.IConvertible.ToType(Type type, IFormatProvider provider) +37 System.Convert.ChangeType(Object value, Type conversionType, IFormatProvider provider) +408 System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter.CoerceValue(Object value, MetaType destinationType) +896

Good Evening All,
I've serached this forum and Google'd for a resolution to this issue, to no avail. Here's the scenario:
I'm running VS 2005 on Windows Media Center laptop and need to create ASP.net membership for my web application built using VB. I have SQL Server Developer installed with instance name MSSQLSERVER. Previously, I uninstalled SQL Express and installed Developer edition and can now open and utilize Management Studio.
Now, when I try to create a new SQL Server database in my solution's App_Data directory, I receive the above error. I already changed instance name in VS2005 per Tools-Options-Database Tools-Data Connections to MSSQLSERVER.
Could someone provide me with a list of procedures to ensure proper setup of VS2005 with SQL Server Developer Edition?
Thanks much for your help.
