I want to change the (dateformat) columns in (syslanguages) tables from dmy to mdy in SQL Server 2005,
but the update query did not success, and error message (Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed) .
We're planning to migrate our db to new and more disk drives, fasterRAID levels and more dedicated disk usage(e.g. placing the translog ondedicated disks). The db server runs on Win2003.Right now we're thinking about what file system to use on the newdrives. We opt for performance, but expect reliability as well.(Goeswithout saying, IMHO ;-))
hi guys, i am having a truble in accesing the server 2005 express edition from my client systems in server 2003 domain network. i get server not accessible. whereas my domain is working perfectly. i really tried alot and i have enable tcpip and named pipes and i am still getting errors while accessing. i have also created user reights for the domain users to access sql server. still i couldn't able to access it.

We are running a shopping mall in Korea and got a database including a table of 4 million product prices, which is to be updated hourly basis. Updating 4million records requires at least 10 minutes to complete. During the update, our shopping mall exposed to customers does not respond quickly in fact very very slowly and we investigated and found out that many tables of SQL database during the update were being locked. As you know, site speed is top priority. We studied and found out that there are two ways to avoid having locked tables during update, those are "read uncommitted" and "snapshot" using the following lines.
set transaction Isolation level read uncommitted set transaction Isolation level snapshot
We tried numerous times the above two lines and still find our tables being locked during update and our customers are being disappointed.
My questions:
1. Is it possible at all in view of "the state of the art" to avoid having locked tables during update of 4 million records ?
2. if it is possible, would you please teach me like I am the beginner of database studies?
For your information, we are using 2005sql (64bit) in Windows 2003 (64bit).
I currently run SQL Server 2005 64-bit Developer Edition (Service Pack 2 - it will be SP 3 as soon as I can get hold of it). I am running this on a stand-alone box with Windows Server 2003 as the OS.
Soon, I will be buying another computer for a colleague who will be running SQL Server as specified above. However, I am not happy with Windows Server and am wondering about changing to either XP 64-bit or Vista 64-bit. The machine will not be networked.
I would welcome advice on this since, in some ways, I would be happy enough to use XP or Vista, and think that 64-bit development is more likely on Vista than on other Windows OS's. However, I am not convinced that SQL Server 2005 works with Vista and, like everyone else, have heard plenty of complaints about Vista.
I am trying to build a query which will be used in an automated report to calculate failure rates of systems based on cases opened through support. Here is where I am stuck. Some systems may have multiple cases opened within the same span of another cases however we would consider this one failure:
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase22013-07-12 16:27:50.0002013-07-12 16:29:12.000 System ACase32013-07-12 17:30:32.0002013-07-12 17:40:11.000 System ACase42013-07-12 19:00:24.0002013-07-12 19:04:14.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
Lets say System A generated those 5 cases however Case 2,3 and 4 all happened within the same period as Case 1 so those 4 cases should count as one failure so my end result should be
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
And that system should show me 2 failures. I was thinking of using a temp table but not sure if that is possible as I am stumped on how to compare the dates to be able to validate if they fall within the range of an older case and whether or not to include them into the new Temp Table.
I'm changing data storage for an asp.net project from MS Access to Sql Server. I've got the web site working, but I need to update the sql server tables with data from our Oracle db daily. What is the "best" way to do that?
I've read about DTS, but have never done anything like that. Would it be worth the time and effort to study? (So far I've created a package, with the import wizard, that doesn't work & I don't have the authority to delete :-)
I know I could create a dataset with my Oracle data and use that to update sql server. But is there a way to schedule an aspx to run authomatically? Would this affect performance? The sql server db isn't very big (30-40,000 records), but the Oracle db is & I need to do quite a bit of manipulation to the data.
This is new to me & I'm don't know what I should be searching for to find help. And if there is a more appropriate place to post this question, please let me know.
I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name, SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name, c.name AS column_name FROM sys.tables AS t INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%' ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
HI, My computer keeps trying to download SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 and fails with the error code 0x2B22. It is a new computer running with Windows XP Pro.
I have spent hours searching the forums and the internet, but I can't find anything to help, or I don't understand the solutions or whether they relate to my computer. I don't know how to find out why the update is failing either.
I have got 4 MS Access Database Files, which have got 3 Tables each, means Total 12 Tables which gets updated with new data every evening, by an external application. Means new data gets appended to all these 12 Tables.
I want to have exact same 4 Databases, which have got 3 Tables each, means Total 12 Tables, but WITHIN MS SQL SERVER. And then update all of these 12 Tables every evening, with the corresponding updates from the respective tables from the MS Access Databases.
I do not want to Manually Update all these 12 tables every evening into SQL Server. Hopefully there would be some easier method to do this in automatic manner.
I'm working on databases where statistics of some indexes (tables) are changing too frequently. Once I update them manually, one minute after they get 10-20% change, and five minutes after they get over 100% change. Tables get updated very frequently (multiple times in a second).
When I run a query to read from sys.stats, sys.dm_db_stats_properties and other dynamic views, I see that they were last updated when I did it manually, but the change rate overpassed the 500+20% (tables have multiples of 10K rows). Auto create and update statistics are set to true on all databases, and I don't know why sql server does not do that automatically.
I am trying to run an update statement against a vendor's database that houses HR information. If I run a regular select statement against the database with the following query, it returns without error:
SELECT "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDDAT-INT", "NAME"."INTERNET-ADDRESS", "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDFLD-FIELD-ID", "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDTBL-TABLE-ID" FROM "SKYWARD"."PUB"."NAME" "NAME", "SKYWARD"."PUB"."QUDDAT-DATA" "QUDDAT_DATA" WHERE ("NAME"."NAME-ID"="QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDDAT-SRC-ID") AND "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDTBL-TABLE-ID"=0 AND "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDFLD-FIELD-ID"=16 AND "QUDDAT_DATA"."QUDDAT-INT"=11237When I try to convert it into an
[Code] ....
I am assuming I am receiving this error because it doesn't know where to find QUDDAT-INT? How can I fix that?
The "QUDDAT-INT" column houses the employee number. So in the case of the SELECT query above, I am testing against a specific employee number.
I want to retrieve the last update time of database. Whenever any update or delete or insert happend to my database i want to store and retrieve that time.
I know one way is that i have to make a table that will store the datetime field and system trigger / trigger that can update this field record whenever any update insert or deletion occur in database.
But i don't know exactly how to do the coding for this?
I need to search for such SPs in my database in which the queries for update a table contains where clause which uses non primary key while updating rows in table.
If employee table have empId as primary key and an Update query is using empName in where clause to update employee record then such SP should be listed. so there would be hundreds of tables with their primary key and thousands of SPs in a database. How can I find them where the "where" clause is using some other column than its primary key.
If there is any other hint or query to identify such queries that lock tables, I only found the above few queries that are not using primary key in where clause.
We have 20 -30 normalized tables in our dartabase . Also we have 4tables where we store the calculated data fron those normalised tables.The Reason we have these 4 denormalised tables is when we try to dothe calcultion on the fly, our site becomes very slow. So We haveprecalculated and stored it in 4 tables.The Process we use to do the precalcultion, will get do thecalculation and and store it in a temp table. It will compare the thetemp with denormalised tables and insert new rows , delte the old oneans update if any changes.This process take about 20 mins - 60mins. Ittakes long time because in this process we first do the calculationregardless of changes and then do a compare to see what are changed andremove if any rows are deleted, and insert new rowsand update thechanges.Now we like to capture the rows/columns changed in the normalisedtables and do only those chages to the denormalised table , which weare hoping will reduce the processing time by atleast 50%WE have upgraded to SQL SERVER 2005.So We like to use the newtechnology for this process.I have to design the a model to capture the changes and updated onlythose changes.I have the list of normalised tables and te columns which will affectthe end results.I thought of using Triggers or OUTPUT clause to capture the changes.Please help me with the any ideas how to design the new process
I have a problem where Backup Exec crashed during a backup of a SQL database and now SQL show 3 extent lock that are now redundant. These cannot be removed from Enterprise manager Is it therefore possible to remove them directly from the master database ??
I need to syncronize two separate databases. One is SQL Server the other is MySql. I don't have a lot of experience with MSSQL and need a little advice on how best (in terms of speed especially) to gather records that have been added since the last sync and any that have been modified. The table in question has datetime fields for both, the time each record was created (CreatedTime) and the time that the record was last modified (ModifiedTime). Sync will happen daily.
I have worked out a few ways I might do this with DATEADD or DATEDIFF, but my question is, what is the most effecient way? Currently I'm just looking for a way to get inserted and updated records from SQL Server to MySQL. I may have to do a two way sync of some sort later.
I don't wich choice should I made to avoid have to see the systems objects, for intance, when I open the tables of any Data Base I have like 50 that I havenÂīt create, so if any one can help me, I will be gratefull, it might sound like BOBO, but I jist don't know. Thanks
I was wondering if anyone could suggest a web-based help desk systemthat uses MS SQL server that also has a knowledge base and also allowssupport employees to log how much time they have spent on eachparticular ticket. I'm after an 'affordable' system that would be usedby about 35 people.Otherwise, if you can think of a better place to ask around, let meknow!Regards,Belinda
I'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?
I have a client that would like to archive all of the documents .word, .xls, .pdf, .jpg, email coorespondance, etc. into some sort of database so in the near future when the project starts up again all of the information is in a clear consise format. I was hoping that this forum could provide some guidance in selecting a software package and a discussion on how to proceed.
I have 6 gigs of documents in a folder on our server. I was planning on delivering the organized data on a external hard drive after putting the data into some sort of database. I would like to include metadata about each particular document. like who created the document, Key words about the document's purpose, time frame the document is revelant for, and so on.
I would like to use a database structure and possibly hot link the document to the DB. I would like to use xml (if possible) for the metadata.
any help is greatly appreciated on this I can be reached at
Does anyone have a description of what is a System Analyst responsibility should involve. I was recently assigned the title and is no longer sure what my responsibility should entail. I asked mgmt for a description. Still waiting.
Im having a hard time deciding what approach should I take. The scenario is this: I have developed various systems (inventory, HR, accounting, etc.). All this systems are (and should be) tightly integrated with one another. At present, for all these systems, i've used a single DB prefixing the tables with the systems name (eg. Inventory.Items).
My question is: did I did the right (and practical) thing? Or should I create a DB for each system to organize them? The problem with multiple DBs is some system uses the other system's table(s). Example, if i created a separate DB for accounting, and a separated DB for inventory, and another for HR, how am I going to relate inventory and HR's accounts to the accounting DB's table? I want a single instance for each table; I don't want to create another account table for inventory or HR so I can enforce integrity. And if different DBs, is there a performance impact on this?
Or is there another way? My concern is performance and manageability. Please help. Thanks!
I'm working on an income deferral problem and we are using IRR to end up calculating periodic income.
As an example, I have the following inputs:
Number of periods = 9 Initial Loan = 21.46 Instalment amount =15.30 Future value=0 Guess=0.1 (10%)
Using a compiled function from Visual Studio in SQL Server 2008 we get a result of 70.71656373
Using a Microsoft Access function we get NaN
Using Microsoft Excel we get NaN
Using a web calculator we get 70 (ish, the calculator rounds the numbers)
I know that the numbers are odd, some of our data is dirty so we do expect that. I was expecting the SQL process to kick out an error (therefore converting the result into 0), but it doesn't.
I've recently bought a laptop with Windows XP Pro SP2. It keeps trying toinstall an MS update for SQL Server 2005 Express, but failing (with error0x2B22). What I'm wondering is, why is this there anyway? No SQL servicesare shown on the other two PCs in the house that run the same OS. Is itbecause the PC came with a trial version of MS Access, that I have nointention of trying out or activating? I have no need for databases onthe PC so far as I know. Can I just remove it? And if I remove it, howcomplex it is to re-install if necessary?Sorry for these basic questions. I would be grateful for links to web sitesthat have useful information. All the ones I can find assume I know allabout SQL servers already, which is the opposite of the truth!--Tony WMy e-mail address has no hyphen- but please don't use it, reply to the group.

Bear with me plase as I am nto very familiar with the coding world. The project I am working on is giving me troubles. I am trying to set up a form that can be used on line for our sales staff. It is a call activity form that I was hoping to submit to the DB I Have created in SQL. I would like the sales staff to fill out this form and then have their information transferred to the DB so that I can generate reports from that data. The trouble I am having is getting the intial connection to the DB opened up using the submit button on the form. I go into the code behind the page, and I have entered many scripts with no success. I continue to see that I receive erros when I try to use the opening line: Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
If anyone out there has some sample scripting that would help me with this, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
