Transfering Data From SQL Server Standard To SQL Server Express
Feb 28, 2008
Hello folks,
Are there any tools that can transfer database and it's content from
SQL Server Standard version to SQL Server Express database?
I tried to backup database in SQL Server Standard and then restore it
into SQL Server Express but it didn't work. Are there any tools that
can extract SQL clauses to create database, tables
and data inserts into file? Or any other method to transfer database/
data from SQL Server Standard to SQL Server Express?
I've read about using starsql odbc and sql server 7.0 DTS utility to transfer the database or data from a DB2 to SQL Server. I have a SQL Server 6.5 and need to transfer data from a DB2. Is the operation the same? Is there a utility in sql server 6.5 that allows this?
I need to transfer seven tables from Informix DB to SQL Server every night. Any suggestions for the best way of doing it? Is DTS the best way? How about through replication?
How can I make a connection in SSIS Data Flow to connect to DB2 on the mainfrain? Have several DTS packages in SQL Server 2000 that uses the ODBC connection.

Hi friends, I want to install Visual Studio .NET 2005. I've seen that there are several questions about upgrading from SQL Express to Standard edition, so I though that if it's possible, first I install SQL Server Standard and then during installing Visual Studio I don't install SQL Express that is by default is installed, but I don't know is it possible to introduce Standard edition instead of Express edition to Visual Studio? and if it's possible, how can I do it? would you help me? thank you in advance.
I have installed VS2005 with SQL Server Express. I used this setup for about a month. Now i have SQL Server Standard Edition. I am confused about how to swap them over. Everything is running on the same machine - i just want to use SQL Server Standard instead of SQL Server Express. Can anybody explain how to get this up and running? Also will membership, profiles and the other built in providers work with this? - Thanks for any help! - Callam
Can the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio interact with local SQL 2005 Express databases. So can we use one management tool for both our server (non-local) SQL 2005 Databases and our local SQL 2005 Express databases (That the developers have free reign over).
Hi all, i have standard edition of sql server, on a server hat doesnt have sql server standard would i be able to connect to it using my connection string. Or does the server has to have standard edition too. Is this same for express edition, and if possible to do this whats the difference between express connection string from standard edition thanks
Hi, i have sql server 2005 standard installed on my machine. I want to work on express edition and learn about it but on the installation its gets stuck because a higher version is installed. If the express version is free why cant have both versions installed on my machine. Thank you.
I tried to upgrade an Express edition 2005 to Standard Edition 2005. I did remember to use the command prompt setup parameter to allow the upgrade but still the option to upgrade is disabled. Can upgrade from express to standard?
If I create a database in SQL Express and then copy the MDF/LDF files and attach them to a machine running SQL Server 2005 Standard - will this new database have SQL Express limitations?
Are there good reasons not to do this and create the database in SQL Server Standard using scripts generated from the SQL Express instance instead?
Basically, I'm setting up a merge replication between Standard and SQL Express for a common database and I figure attaching a copy of the database created in SQL Express is the fastest way to get this started.
I am trying to figure out the best method for transferring SQL 2005 databases from 2 different physical servers to a new server running windows server 2008 64bit.I own a fully registered copy of Microsoft SQL 2005 32bit Standard Edition. However all of my SQL databases together are only 4GB in size thereby making 2008 SQL Express an option.
Here is the breakdown of the servers:
1) (Old Server1) Windows 2003 Server 32bit - SQL Express 2005 32bit 2) (Old Server2) Windows 2003 Server 32bit - SQL Server 2005 32bit Standard 3) (New Server) Windows 2008 Server 64bit - (Not sure which version to install)
**The objective is to migrate 2 SQL databases from Old Server1 and 1 SQL database from Old Server 2 to the New Server. What version should I install on the new server??? Do I go with 2008 express or install the 2005 Standard Edition?
Pending your response to which version to install, what are the correct steps to migrate (which I have never done before) the databases from both of these servers to the new server? I think this particular situation is unique in that I am transferring from both SQL Express and Standard from 2 different physical servers to a 2008 server that is 64bit.
I have a windows 2003 server which has SQL 2005 Express with advanced services installed on it. Then a few weeks back the company purchased SQL server Standard Edition which comes with SQL Server Management Studio (which has more features than SQL Server Management Studio Express currently installed on the server where sql express is running)I have been trying to schedule a maintanance plan on the SQLExpress Instance database from the SQL Server Management Studio that came with the standard version of sql but i have not been able to have all SQL Server Management Studio functionality available when connected to the SQLExpress instance. So is there a way i can connect to the Express Instance from management studio(that comes with the standard edition of sql) and have all its functions available when working with a SQL express database. Or i must upgrade the express database?
I Try to install SQL Server Express in Windows 2003 Standard edition x64 and have some problems.
It say that can not instal client and say to use sqlncli_x64.msi, but I can not find this packege to install this client and I receive one alert with ASP.NET register 64.
I Check all request systems requirements many times and looks ok.
How can I solve this to install properly the SQL 2005 Express? When the setup finish say that was not possiblem to install SQL Server 2005 Express.
Hello,If I backup and restore an express database to sql server 2005 standard, will there still be limitations in regards to the database size, cpu...etc.? Thanks,Jon
I need to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on a new Windows Server 2003 machine that has SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed by a backup application (Backup Exec). Will I need to uninstall the express edition in order to install the standard edition? Can the two coexist as separate instances or will the standard edition installation simply upgrade the express installation?
I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).
Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.
The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.
I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.
Hey,I was wondering if it was easy to migrate from SQL Server 2005 Expressto SQL Server 2005 Standard? If so, do you know how I can go aboutdoing the migration of data? Thank you.Sincerely,Eldhose Cyriac
Hello!M a newbie.. I just want to know, that wots the difference b/w SQL Server Standard Edition and Express Edition.?And can I use Visual Studio 2005 (Professional Edition) with SQL Server Express Edition.?
I am trying to upgrade SQL Server Express 2005 Report Server to SQL 2005 Standard and it fails with the following error:
SQL Server Setup did not have the administrator permissions required to copy a file: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting ServicesReportServer ssrvpolicy.config. To continue, verify that the file exists, and either grant administrator permissions to the account currently running Setup or log in with an administrator account. Then run SQL Server Setup again.
After I click OK on the message, this whole path where the upgrade is bieng installed dissapears C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting Services. The error is a bit missleading because the file that it is trying to copy rssrvpolicy.config does appear in that upgrade folder so I am not sure why it would try to copy a file that has already been copied.
I was able to upgrade the Database Engine instance fine but can't upgrade Reporting Services due to that error. I have verified that the account that ran the setup had the administrator permissions. Your prompt reply to my question would be greatly appreciatted.

I have an application that runs off an sql server 2000 sp3 database. I have taken a backup (.bak file) of the production database and restored it to another server for testing purposes. the users cannot login to the new server because the logins have not been transfered to the new server. I am looking to transfer the logins using the procedure outlined at the following link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/246133/ under the header "Create and Run Stored Procedures in the Master Database". what I need to know is will this procedure affect the production server in any way? (I can't have that) and is there anything else I need to do after this to let the users login to the test server with the same name and passwords?
Hi everyone,I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005 Express with Advanced Services from Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition. I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition but it took up so much space and resources on my computer that I didn't want to put it back on there. So I put the SQL Express on there and while the Management Studio application connects just fine, VS 2005 will not. Oddly enough, VS 2005 connected just fine to SQL 2005 Standard. I have enabled shared memory, named pipes and TCP/IP. I have set up SQL Express to accept remote connections on named pipes and TCP/IP. And I have tried running SQL Express as the Local System Account, as a Local Service and as a Network Service. Nothing. I have tried feeding the Server Name is the Data Connections dialog in Visual Studio my SQL Express instance as (local)/SQLEXPRESS, localhost/SQLEXPRESS, and {computername}/SQLEXPRESS where {computername} is the name of my local computer which SQL Express is (allegedly) running on. And I cannot get the list of databases on that server.There is probably something very simple that I have left out. Can anyone see what it is?Thanks!
can anyone help me get around the following error I am trying to transfer a database from one sql 7 server to another but keep recieving this problem when I attempt a restore of the backup file. Is anyone able to give us any advice tips etc. Any other ways to transfer the db would be good as well!thanks guys! "The database you are attempting to restore was backed up under a different sort order ID(51) than the one currently running on this server (52), and at least one of them is non binary sort order. Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally."
