Hi
Sorry if i am posting in the wrong section but i can't find a forum for MS Access.
Does Access know of a equivelent to SQL Servers INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables?
I am writing a application that needs to extract information from a access database like, table names, relationships etc..
Please note that i need to do this via SQL.
Thanks Wayne
SS 2005 64Bit SP2 Hello Chaps Intermittent problem with the SQL Agent job history not getting written to the history table. Background:Today we noticed the account SQL Agent runs under cropping up in sp_who2. A quick check of the activity monitor said nothing was running. We ran a trace and, based on the SQL being executed, had a word with one of the developers who confirmed they had manually executed one of the jobs. There was no record anywhere that the job had run. There has been an issue with this particular job, when executed by this user, not showing up in history before but, as mentioned, this had been intermittent and we thought that a restart of the service had sorted it. Stuff run to try to track the job:EXEC sp_help_jobactivity @job_name = 'MyJob' EXEC sp_help_jobhistory @job_name = 'MyJob' SELECT *FROM dbo.sysjobhistory WHERE job_id = 'MyJob GUID'The first returned a row with no details in the columns indicating activity (e.g. last_executed_step_date and other columns were null). sp_help_jobhistory had some historical records but nothing since mid last month. sysjobhistory correlated with sp_help_jobhistory as you would expect. Right clicking the job in SSMS and viewing history correlated with sp_help_jobhistory (i.e. some records but nothing since mid-June). We edited the SQL in the job step and got the developer to rerun the job and, typically, everything appeared as it should in all the above result sets.Obviously this is tricky to track down since it has been intermittent but does anyone recognise anything that I have described above? I have of course googled but there doesn't really seem to be anything about it. We have considered there may be a problem in MSDB and may try running CHECKDB to see if anything comes up but somehow I doubt it will. Ta!

View 4 Replies View RelatedTill recently we were using the following code to retreive schema information of columns of tables
Dim schemaTable = connection.GetOleDbSchemaTable( _
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbSchemaGuid.Columns, _
New Object() {Nothing, Nothing, tableName, Nothing})
Now instead of getting the name of table (which i was using as param for filtering) i'm going to receive a sql-query. Now my question is if I were to get a query like the following :
SELECT
[EmployeeID],
[Title] + ' ' + [LastName] + ' ' + [FirstName] AS FullName,
[BirthDate],
[Address],
[City] + ', ' + [Region] + ', ' + [Country] + ' - ' + [PostalCode] AS FullAddress
FROM [dbo].[Employees]
Then how can I retrieve the schema information of only the columns present in the query.
(Its possible that i might get a query with multiple tables with joints)...

Hi all,
Im not really sure if this is a PHP or and SQL problem but here goes.
Im using MSSQL and have developed a webpage that enables users to run various PACKAGES manually, however I need to display if the package has been successfully run.
Is there a system table that logs package information or is there a PHP function that I can use.
Thanks
P.s I know there are some system tables with the information for jobs but I do not want to create a job for each package.
Such as check all triggers that assign value to some columns ?
Thank you very much.
Hi,I have a few things on my databases which seem to be neither true systemobjects or user objects - notably a table called 'dtproperties' (createdby Enterprise manager as I understand, relating to relationship graphingor something) and some stored procs begining with "dt_" (some kind ofsource control stuff, possible visual studio related). These show up whenI use"exec sp_help 'databaseName'"but not in Ent. Mgr. or in Query Analyzer's object browser, and also notin a third party tool I use called AdeptSQL. I am wondering how thosetools know to differentiate between these types of quasi-system objects,and my real user data. (This is for the purpose of a customized schemagenerator I am writing). I'd prefer to determine this info with systemstored procs (ie sp_help, sp_helptex, sp_...etc) but will dip into thesystem tables if needed.Thanks,Dave

I'm trying to access data from one table by matching ids pulled from another table. I can't quite get the syntax though if anybody could help I would appericate it.
Here is where I'm at

I have recently started using VWD and SQl Express. I want to set up a catalogue of books on sql express of which there are three hundred which will then be presented on a web site. I already have most of the books on an access file. This may sound silly (I'm quite new to programming) but is there any way I can get sql express to extract information from the access file to save me writing it all out again?

Hi there, I need an easy solution for the following problem:
I want to join two tables. The first table contains an internal system customer ID and the official customer ID. The second table contains parts of the internal customer ID from table 1 plus the receivers of the invoices for each customer, If necessary. A parent child hierarchy If you'll call it like that. Now, how do I get a result table that puts out the customer ID plus the customer ID of the invoice receiver in a seperate row, like shown in the example result table?
Many thanks in advance!!!

I've been unsuccessful getting Reporting Services 2005 to work after reinstalling SQL 2005. The RS service cannot connect to its database, as reported in the Event Log. If I visit http://localhost/Reports, I get the error "Key not valid for use in specified state. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8009000B)
(rsRPCError)"
I've used the RS Config Mgr to create a fresh database for it named SSRS (and SSRSTembDB), and it is set to use Service Credentials in the db connection. The RS service is running using the same admin account as MSSQL, .SQLExec. I have confirmed that .SQLExec is in the RSExecRole role in the SSRS database.
When I created the SSRS database, the Config Mgr had a green check for every step except the last. For "Setting Connection Info for the Reporting Server" there was a yellow '!', with the explanation, "Although saving the database connection succeeded, the report server cannot access internal information about this deployment to determine if the current configuration is valid for this edition. ..."
I examined rsreportserver.config to look for any issues. The <dsn> element has an encrypted string, the <ConnectionType> element says "Default", and the logon elements are empty. I could not find the db names, SSRS and SSRSTempDB, anywhere in the file. Where are these kept? I don't know what else to look for.
Also, in RS Config Mgr, the 'Encryption Keys' page has a blue '!', and only the 'Restore' and 'Delete' buttons are enabled. The 'Initialization' page has a red 'X'. The local RS is not listed (the grid is empty), and clicking the 'Initialize' button does nothing.
How can I diagnose and fix this installation?
Hello,
I'm trying to create a web page that is protected by a user login. I want the user data to be stored in an access database file and not an SQL Server express database.
I was following this guide on msdn:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/879kf95c(VS.80).aspx
However, I was doing everything locally using a file system and not IIS. (Which seemed to work fine)
My main problem is that I cannot get the membership information stored in an access database. The only provider option was one for the SQL server express. I think I will have to make a custom provider? However, I read through some of that documentation and was equally confused. ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa479031.aspx )
Anyone have a solution?

I am taking my first stab at a 3 tier architecture within ASP.Net. I have been adding datasets and creating a new Insert to add certain parts to a table. I am trying to add a date field called 'DateAdded' and is setup in SQL as a DateTime. When Visual Studio auto created the dataset, the Insert function is not "DateAdded as Datetime" as I would have expected, but it is "DateAdded as System.Nullable(Of Date)". There is a space in between 'Of' and 'Date'. If I keep the space in there the insert function shows an error that says "Arguement not specified for parameter DateAdded of funtion( etc. etc.). If I take the space out, the error on the insert function goes away but there is an error within the "OfDate" that says "Array bound cannot appear in type specifiers". I am confused on why the date format changed and how I can get a date to go into the database using the autogenerated datasets from Visual Studio. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike

Hi,
These are my tables
auth:
id, level, base
info:
aid, name
store:
aid, itemID
aid is the ID that comes from the auth table.
The final output that I plan to get is
Name Number of Items
where name comes from the info table, and number of items comes from the store table.
Query something like:
show the total number of items for all those users (in the fashion Name, Number of items)from the store table, for all those whose level=something and base=something in the auth table.
For example,
if there are 10 users whom match level=something and base=something in the auth table,
What I want displayed is:
------------------------
Name Number of Items
------------------------
user1 10
user2 15
user3 20
....
user10 30
-----------------------
which if broken up is:
select name from info where aid=X
select count(*) from store where aid=X ..
for all those whose base=something and level=something from auth.
Thanks,
Shashi

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm new to my company, although not new to SQL 2005 and I found something interesting. I don't have an ERD yet, and so I was asking a co-worker what table some data was in, they told me a table that is NOT in SQL Server 2005's list of tables, views or synonyms.
I thought that was strange, and so I searched over and over again and still I couldn't find it. Then I did a select statement the table that Access thinks exists and SQL Server does not show and to my shock, the select statement pulled in data!
So how did this happen? How can I find the object in SSMS folder listing of tables/views or whatever and what am I overlooking?

We migrated a MS Access 2003 mdb into MS Access 2007. The mdb has linked tables to SQL Server via a DSN and utilizes a mdw file. In 2003, the username/password is "passed" to SQL Server, so the UID/PWD that is used for opening the mdb, is used in SQL Server.
Opening the same file in 2007 using the same mdw, gives a secondary login on SQL Server.
Is there a way to have MS Access 2007 pass the UID/PWD to SQL Server on linked tables, the same way that 2003 does?
Thanks!
Hello all...
I created several SSIS packages on a 32-bit system, using odbc to to access the dbase source file. Finally, after setting up a proxy, etc., we got the package to run and import data. We then needed to move the packages to a 64-bit system. So, we built our manifests, and installed all of our packages. We are using several dtsConfig files for our packages, and in there we specify the DSN that we will be accessing. I understand that MS does not support odbc drivers in a 64-bit world (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=85703&SiteID=1). Has anyone been faced with this issue? How did you get past it? I accessed the 32-bit odbc drivers on the 64-bit system, and i setup a dsn that points to the dbase file, but when i run the job, the log file has an error that the dsn was not found. However, when I run the package itself, it runs as expected...
Please help!! :-)
