I have two SQL servers I am dealing with. I have some tables in one database
on one SQL server that I want to transfer into a database on the other SQL
server. I want to xerox copy the tables including all primary keys,
identities, defaults etc. I used the export/import feature in Enterprise
Manger, but when I do it, and view the tables that got imported, all of my
defaults are gone and all the primary keys are gone. What is the best way to
just copy a few tables from one database to another. I do NOT want to copy
the entire database from one SQL server to the other, only a few tables. I
just want to make sure that when they are imported they are exactly the same
as where they came from. THANKS

Hi all, How do I transfer a database from a SQLEXPRESS instance on my PC to another SQLEXPRESS instance on my laptop? I tried backing it up and restoring it on the laptop but it comes up with errors. This is the error Restore failed for Server 'DOUGYDOESQLEXPRESS' System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master' (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo). Do I need to perform some configuration somewhere? Any leads will be most appreciated. Thanks

Really easy question I think. I've been working on a website using a back end SQL database. All the tables, views etc have been designed and built. There is some data in the tables. Now that I have developed it I want to move the whole database onto the live Server which resides on another machine. How can i transfer a database from my development server to the live one?

Hi, I've a problem that I haven't experienced before and need some help. I've developed an app that works fine locally and have uploaded via FTP to my host provider - .NET 2 and SQL2005 Express. I'm now getting problems accessing the site. In the application load event I load a couple of application state items from the database. When it hits the default aspx page, it throws an Object reference not set to an instance of an object. error because the application state items haven't been loaded. The host then tried to load the database using SQL Management Express to ensure there wasn't a problem with the database and this is where I get confused..... When they try to attach it, the message column n the "Attach Databases" screen says the file cannot be found. In the "Current File Path" column, it points to the path of my local machine, i.e. H:SourceClubApp_Dataclub.mdf. This leads me to believe that somewhere in the database the original file path is noted and used. I can't find this and wondered if anyone has come accross this issue before?? The log file has been deleted. Any help and advice appreciated. Terry.

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?

When restoring DBs to other environments the SIDS don't transfer causing access problems, and when I use a SID scripting method and deploy on the target environment SQL says the login already exists.
I usually end up with the cumbersome process of explicitly removing the logins and re-applying - how to other DBA's get round this?

Has anyone had a problem transfering a database to a server. This is the first time I have done this. I have a site and sqldatabase hosted by a hosting company and I am supposed to transfer my database This is what I'm doing
From the Start Menu, select "Programs" -> "Microsoft SQL Server" -> "Import and Export Data" then click "Next". In the "Server" field, type in the Name or IP of the source server (your server), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your username and password, choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next". Note: You can also use Windows Authentication if the SQL server is a local server. In the "Server" field, type in the hostname of the DiscountASP SQL Server (this is listed in your hosting control panel), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your DiscountASP database username and password (this was sent in your database order confirmation email), choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next". Choose "Copy objects…", click "Next". Uncheck Use Default Option. Click Options, uncheck "Copy Database users and database roles", "Copy SQL Server logins", "Copy object-level Permissions". Leave next window as is, click "Next". Click "Finish".
It seems to work ok untill it gets to about 90% done then a message says "There has been an error" and gives no more info. Can anyone help me out
i really need some help from all of you. I currently have some DTS package which will transfer data from text file to the SQL 7.0 This transformation is schedule using the Sql Agent.
The problem is the transfering data which have the Date datatype. the Date format is in the dd/mm/yyyy. But the default language i set in my sql server is english which suppose will use the date format mm/dd/yyyy.
therefore, the Sql server will treat my data which in dd/mm/yyyy as mm/dd/yyyy. so, the data like '08/09/2000' (in dd/mm/yyyy) become '08/09/2000' (in mm/dd/yyyy)
i already set my user'language who will login in the sql agent as 'british english'. I also the OLE connection in the DTS package that i built using 'british english'.
when i run the agent in the Sql Enterprice Manager, it use the dd/mm/yyyy format which is correct. BUt when i log out and let it run as services which mean let the agent excute the DTS. it use back the mm/dd/yyyy fromat which cause the data become wrongs.
i hope someone can give me some advice on this. Thanks for your help
We are having problems finding out how to transfer user permissions and passwords to a new server when we copy a database. We have tried sp_helprotect and looked at system tables to try and retrieve the details to no avail. The reason for this is that we are trying to write an application to automate this as we have many databases to transfer.
We have transfered some jobs to new server using DTS 'export jobs' task, but they are failing when trying to execute DTS packages in them saying 'login failed for user----though everything is correct with the user!
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?
I've been trying to get the scripts posted earlier to the group byClay Beatty to work properly. Using the three components he posted, Ihave managed to get a new SP generated. However, when I paste thisscrip into a new copy of the original database (different name, samestructure as a test), I get an Invalid Object Name for the temp table#PersistedVariables.Has anyone run into something like this before?
