Can I Manage MSDE With SSMS??
Jul 26, 2007Hello,We have an XP workstation containing a very important MSDE-basedapplication. Its MSDE database isn't likely to change for quite awhile.The app contains an internal backup method (File, Backup, Backup) andan auxiliary app/script for shrinking the database and logs. I wouldlike to automate the backup and shrinking so end users don't have toremember to do them.The workstation has a static IP so it can go out to the Internet whennecessary.The workstation is presently not joined to the domain.1. Can I install SSMS Express *only* as a local app (without SQLExpress 2005) and thus use SSMS to set up nightly backups and periodicshrink database/logs jobs??2. We have SSMS running on SQL 2005 server box in the domain. If Ijoin the workstation only to the domain (local account logon is notchanged, still used), could I use SSMS from the SQL 2005 box?? Would Ineed a domain login on the XP box to make this work??Thank you, Tom

Jun 6, 2005Hello,
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.

Third Party Software
Sep 12, 2007Hey guys I really need your help.
We've outsourced our software last year, and it really a big mess for us since that company has been clashed. Then it so happened that the system failed to function well. Our batch transactions was working about 56 mins.. that is 24 records. Then it happened that this time 28 records was finished for about an hour. Our business hour is 8 hours only. That's why we have a back log now. We also failed to validate transaction since it takes a lot of effort before we update the database. It's working before but as our database becomes larger there are many errors occur in our application. Majority is runtime error. Then it happened that now we cannot move on anymore. We are using SQL server 2000 with VB6.0 application. our server memory is 1GB. Do you think adding additional memory will solve our problem?
Thanks!!

View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing Third Party ADO .net In Script
Oct 24, 2006I am working on a SSIS package to move data between SQL2005 and DB2. I currently have the DB2 ADO .Net connector from DataDirect which works fine for connecting to the AS400. My question is that I am working on a script transformation and I want to be able to use the Connection already created in the package their.
I can set it up just fine using the properties for the script, but there appears to be no way to create SQLCommands and connections unless I reference the DataDirector DLL in the script, which requires adding it to the GAC and the Framework folder.
I am just wondering if this is the correct way to go about this or if there are any other recommendations. Please let me know if I need to supply more information.
Thanks,

Third Party Backup Programs
Feb 27, 2002Currently we are using SQL Servers Backup utility to backup our databases to disk and then the files to backup tape during a nightly backup.
The time it takes for the backups to disk to complete for the databases is becoming prohibitively long and performance problems on the DB server are manifesting.
I am interested in other solutions. However, the propaganda listed at the various companies sites are less than insightful.
I was wondering if anyone used a third party Agent like Brightstor Enterprise SQL Server backup agent, or Veritas NetBackup for SQL Server, that would be willing to give some recommendations. If you use something that isn't listed here and it works well, I would be interested in hearing about it.
Do these backup agents significantly slow down the database performance? Do they create any locking issues? Some insight into your backup hardware configuration would be helpful as well. Thanks in advance for your help.
3rd Party Monitoring Tools
Apr 11, 2002I have been using the built-in tools of SQL Server (email and netsend) to monitor and alert me about some basic issues (like severity errors and job failures) with our SQL servers. We are now approaching a level and number of servers where I think we need to get a more global and more stable solution to monitoring and alerting.
So what third party tools are you are using to monitor your SQL Servers?
Thanks

3rd Party Search Engine Web To SQL?
Sep 6, 2005Hi All,
I am pretty new to SQL and would like a bit of friendly help, please. Am trying to set up a .Net web site that will have dynamic content supplied by a true SQL server (am using MSDE to build this first).
My issue is in building a search engine on my web site that will return hits from the content of the pages which are loaded in MSDE.
Is there a third party or open source search engine available?
Any clues for how to build (or beg, borrow or steal) a workable search engine to do this?
Many thanks,
Newbie

Mar 19, 2007Can SSRS be configured to use any third party .NET charting components or only ones that have been specifically designed for SSRS? I have seen a couple of third party charting software (Dundas, etc.) and while they are nice, they sell at a real premium and there are not many vendors offering SSRS charting. I was hoping for a bit better value and more of a selection to choose from.

Third Party Supplier Access To SQL
Apr 24, 2008
We have a hosted SQL server with various internal applications on it. It has been decided by on high that the same server will also have a database from a third party on the server. The third party have asked for full system admin rights on the SQL server.
Obviously I am not going to grant that access level as it gives them full control on the box. From my viewpoint read and write access to the data can be tolerated but anything else will be denied. Would you consider this standard and is there any documentation with recommendations for control of external suppliers ?
I am sure that they shouldn`t be doing any work on tables structure, sp`s etc on a live database. That work should be tested, scripted etc and then run on in a controlled environment by my company.
Anyone have any advice ?
Thanks

Modifying With 3rd Party Application?
Oct 30, 2006Hi,
I have recently started using SQL Server with a 3rd party application and have come across a problem and i have no idea how to fix it...
The database has a column of numbers that go up either by 10 or 100 depending on the letter in another column. eg:
100 M
110 P
120 P
200 M
300 M
400 M
500 M
510 P
520 P
The 3rd party application has just been updated and now can add new rows to this table. The only problem is that the added row needs a new number, and the rows below need to be recalculated.
Is there anyway this can be done? Any help or suggestions would be great!
Cheers,

Third Party Installs With Sql 2005
Feb 10, 2008
I completed an install of SQL 2005 SP2 on Windows Server 2003. Everything worked fine I can connect while logged into the box, while connected thru RDP. I can create databases add users without any issue. Until!!!!
I have a third party application (Tririga) which I run the install and indicate the SQL database (in this case local) The application begins to install but when I get to the point of adding the SA password the install fails.
"login fails for sa) 18456 sev 8 (wrong password) but it is the same password I use to connect to the DB. So I change the sa assword and try again and it still fails.
any suggestions would be nice. by the way on machines on which I have run an upgrade from 2000 (sql) to 2005 (sql) the install does not fail.
Export To CSV Fails With 3rd Party Web App
Feb 27, 2007From my web application, exporting to Excel works fine, but when I export to CSV and open with Excel I get 2 garbage characters. I can export the report just fine from the ReportServer.
Is there something special that needs to be done? Could I have an old file?
Could it be something in my report? We always have the following components:
-- textboxes in the page header and footer
-- page header refers to parameter values; page footer refers to globals
-- 2 date parameters and 1 hidden boolean parameters
We're running SQL 2005 Reporting Services, and I have SP2 installed.
(I write the reports, not the web app)

How Do I Change The Name Of A Computer Running MSDE With Out Reinstalling MSDE
May 27, 2000I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
CONNECTING TO SQL SERVER FROM A 3RD PARTY SOFTWARE
May 17, 2008I am trying to use NConstruct to generate my Nhibernate files. i can't connect to the sql server. In the past I have ran into similar problems with MyGeneration and other 3rd party tools. In those cases If I ran the tool as an administrator, it worked out ok. For NConstruct there is no option to run as administrator. I ran the SQL Server Surface Configuration tool to allow local and remote connections for named pipes and tcp already. I read all the blogs written for asp.net, and people often complain about the learning curve for Nhibernate or lack of Tutorials for Nhibernate. What I found in my case is that the steepest learning curve is to get the Microsoft Products Configured and Working Correctly! If anyone can be of any assistance, I would deeply appreciate it

Capturing SQL Queries Of 3rd Party Application
Sep 15, 2003Hello.
I would like to analyze how a particular 3rd party business application interacts with SQL server.
Specifically, I want to capture the "exact" SQL commands (transact-sql statements) that this application issues whenever it completes an operation for the user of this application.
In other words, suppose the application issues the SQL command "INSERT INTO table (a,b,c) values (1,2,3)" to add a new entry to the database. Then, my understanding is that if I instead issue the exact same command with a tool like "SQL query analyzer", the database will be updated in the exact same manner. Hence, I have effectively accomplished the same job that the 3rd party application does without even using it (by idependantly issuing the same command to the database it uses).
Is this possible? Can I obtain all the information I need just by running SQL Profiler?
Replicating Data With Log Shipping Or Third Party For DR
Oct 26, 2006In 2007 we plan on moving many of our SQL Servers (2000 & 2005) to a SAN. We will also be investigating the best way to replicate data from our production SAN to a Disaster Recovery SAN. I would like to know if people rely on built-in SQL Server replication / log shipping or third party products like DoubleTake or MirrorView. What's the advantage, if any, to using a third-party product?
