I wonder if anyone can help.
I'm trying to work through a tutorial using a sample database , Adventureworks. When I drag a table "Address" onto my page to set up a grid veiw , and start debugging , the error message reads "invalid object name Address"
On the database explorer the table has (Person) next to the name Address. This I think has something to do with the schema. I cannot get it right to change anything , no matter what I try. I have used this data base in a windows application and it works fine. No (Person ) attached to the table name.
Has anyone got any ideas.
Thanks

I've download and installed the sample database but the Server can't see it .. it doesn't appear in the User databases. I installed using the defaults. Anyone ha d the same problem and solved it?
I downloaded and installed the .msi from codeplex. After installation I open SQL Server Management Studio but don't see AdventureWorksDB in the list of databases. How is this possible? Should I not be seeing this new database? Do I have to do something else?

When I inserted the installation disks again to do a custom instal, and selected AdventureWorks, the response came back that it was already installed. What do I need to do to be able to attache this db in the management studio?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
I've installed AdventureWorks, attached it to SQL Express and wanted to see its Database Diagrams. When I click on the Database Diagrams, I get this error message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
------------------------------
Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.
-----------------------------------------------------------
I really see that in properties for this database there's no owner, while if I do
sp_helpdb 'AdventureWorks'
It shows that the owner is 'IDB-SERVMichael' , which is my user.
I further tried to set this user as an owner in AdventureWorks properties-files window (where it showed no owner), but it says :

The login 'IDB-SERVMichael' does not exist on this server.
Are all these bugs, or did I miss something?
Please, help
Thanx a lot !!!!

Thanks for your help.

Hi, I have been looking at the Adventure works DB diagram and I am confused about the relationship that employees, customers and individuals has with contact i.e. a 1-1, 1-many or many-many relationship. Also why is it broken down like that.
Thanks,
Nadim.

AdventureWorks and AdventureWorksDW are good samples for transaction and dw.
Is there any sample of SSIS package to load data from AdventureWorks to AdventureWorksDW? For example, I'd like to update AdventureWorksDW db everyday from transaction db.
How about if some dimensions changed, like employees, and productions?
Thanks!

The organization I work for will be converting to SQL Server 2005 in the near future so I downloaded the free 90 day trial to familiarize myself with the software. I've installed the software and my plan now is to go through the Tutorials. I need to access AdventureWorks sample database. AdventureWorks did not download upon initial setup so I've downloaded/installed it into what appears to be the correct folder: c:ProgramFilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples. I cannot, however, seem to locate it within SQL Management Studio. As advised by the tutorial I've tried setting up a New Server Registration but I can't seem to locate AdventureWorksDB when I'm browsing for it under the Connect to Database:' option under the "Connection Properties" tab of New Server Registration.
I am familiar with database development as it relates to MS Access but I realize this is a whole new ball of wax. Any advise would be appreciated as it relates to this problem but also any information, i.e., very basic books on learning SQL Server would also be appreciated.

All,
I am running SQL05 Dev with AdventureWorks on my desktop with local admin rights. I also have it configured to connect locally since it's a DEV version of SQL.
When I use either of the connection strings below I get the error message at the end of this post.
Thanks,
>Scott
Here are the strings:
Data source=(local); initial catalog=AdventureWorks or Data source=(SQLDEV05); initial catalog=AdventureWorks
Here is the error message:
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer

Hi All,
I am using SQLExpress and want to use some of the sample data to educate myself. however, I cannot seem to connect to the Adventureworks databse. I do not even see it within Management Studio Express. I would be grateful for advice or an article that will push in the right direction.

I'm not sure that I installed the AdventureWorks database when I originally installed SQL Server 2005 on my pc, but I thought I'd better go thru the tutorial and it uses AdventureWorks, so I put my CD in to install it and started the install.
When I got to the screen where you choose your components, I only checked the Sample Database selections at the bottom. Then I got a screen saying the components had already been installed. So I thought I must have installed AdventureWorks when I did the original install, but the tutorial says to go to Registered Servers and do a new Server Registration choosing the AdventureWorks database on the Connection Properties tab. But it isn't listed there when I browse the server's databases.
How can I get it installed?
NOTE: I had SQL Server installed on my C: drive, but had a major corruption issue, so I added a second hard drive to my system and installed XP on it. So my boot drive is now by G: drive, not C:. SQL Server and most of the other programs I use have been re-installed on G:. I DO have northwind.mdb & ldb files on my C: drive. Would it be easiest to just restore them to G:? Are they the AdventureWorks database?
Thanks.
Today I installed SQLEXPR.EXE that I found here:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.3042&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=5120&LinkId=20476
I made sure that I downloaded the 64-bit version.
I then wanted to download and install the Adventure Works database located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=E719ECF7-9F46-4312-AF89-6AD8702E4E6E&displaylang=en
Since I am running Vista 64-bit, I downloaded and installed AdventureWorksDB_x64. It wouldn't install. I got "Access is denied" and CREATE FILE error plus several others.
I then uninstalled it and downloaded AdventureWorksDB - this is the X86 version. It installed fine.
Can anyone explain what am I missing? Thanks!
Hello,
I installed CTP 5 and the 2008 Adventure Works DW database (July edition).
I'm having trouble installing the analysis database. I open the solution in BIDS and when I'm trying to deploy, the green circle never stops (it ran for hours). I tried doing the same with SSMS & XMLA, but the result was the same - it executes forever.
Any suggestions?
I guess it's possible to do that, because in SQL Server Management Studio, all things(such as Tables,Triggers, Indexes, Constraints, Keys) are displayed in the TreeView.
But I am quite don't understand how to do that with T-SQL.
thanks

The code is based on a sample from Pro SQL2005 (Apress). The book is great BTW.
While modifying it for a testdrive I think I made an error but where. Inner select executes in less than a second. However applying the pivot it takes 5-6 seconds.
Total row count is around 121K. All it does with PIVOT is to sum and crosstab. If I do this taking raw data from inner select outside and do pivoting myself it's much faster. So is it my code here or PIVOT is really an unoptimized addition?
TIA
I have downloaded the Express Edition of SQL Server 2005 to try to learn the software to take the MCTS test for certification. I have installed the software and the SMS. I have downloaded the AdventureWorks database files and installed everything as directed. I use Windows authentication to log in (it's my own home PC). I have followed the instructions to attach the database to the instance I am using.
The problem I'm having is in trying to run examples from the book I'm using on the database. For example, I'm trying to run a simple query like "SELECT * FROM dbo.DatabaseLog;" When I click execute, I keep getting this message:
"
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'dbo.DatabaseLog'.
"
When I look at the Object Explorer pane, I can clearly see the table and see that I am spelling it correctly.
I have set my login up as the owner of the database and when I try to set up permissions on the table, I only see the roles [user] and [guest]. I tried setting up permissions for both, but that didn't help.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

I have been having trouble with enabling table dependencies using the aspnet_regsql utility on the Product table in the AdventureWorks database. It is in the Production in the normal dbo schema. When I run the utility to enable the table dependency for SQL cache notifications it fails because it tries to prefix the reference to the table with dbo.Now I know it just adds a trigger for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE where it runs a stored procedure to update the main table dependency table, but if I do that manually it requires that the trigger also run in the Production schema. I am not sure if this will still work with SQL query notifications.http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms124719.aspx Please reply if you can help.
