Hi.
Is there anyway to export the table structures : data type,length,NULLABLE,Description into an Excel file using MS SQL Server?
Or I need to do it manually?

I created a linked Excel server that is stored in a SQL2000 database.
I can run the following from the SQL server with no problem.
Select * From CSCNEDI...EDI$
When I try and run the select from my WinXP computer I get the following from both SQL2000 Query Analyzer or SQL2005 Management Studio (these are configured for client access)
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Unspecified error]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].

When I open the spreadsheet in Excel 2000, it works fine. When I try to print, it crashes Excel. In testing, I narrowed it down to the Header/Footer, because it also crashes when I go to Page Setup and click on the header/footer tab.
However, I can print the same spreasheet from Excel 2007.
Am I just dealing with a "you need to upgrade all your clients" situation, or is there a known issue with certian formatting that is passed out with reports that is not supported by older versions of Excel?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 SP2 to serve up the report that is exported to Excel.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Hi Everyone,
I just started using ASP.NET and I cannot figure out how to use a connection string to connect to a SQL Server database using ASP.NET. I want to use Windows Authentication to bring up a database called upsizedCandidate on a server called SQLSERVER and display a table within that database through internet explorer. I'm not sure if I should be using OLE DB or ODBC. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance!

I upgraded from SQL server 7.0 to 2000 not long ago, I'm running 2000 SP3, WIN 2K. Things worked fine for several weeks after the upgrade but now I'm experiencing Enterprise Manager hang in the case of one database only, when I try to view the design of a VIEW. I can open the VIEW fine and look at the results, EM only hangs when I try to view design.
I have checked another of the active DBs on my server and it is fine, no EM hang.
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?
thx
**I just realized that I'm running SP3, not SP4 (corrected above). Correct me if I'm wrong but does MS have a fix for this problem in SP4? I seem to recall a similar issue in the KB.
thx
We are running SQL Server 2000 SP3. We have linked servers in use thatwe use to access Oracle tables.Recently the claim has been made that you can access Oracle tables fromwithin SQL Server without using a Linked Server. I searched BooksOnline using keywords: linked, remote, and Oracle and did not findanything.A search of the newsgroup archives found only entries related to usingLinked Servers.Is there any such method as claimed? I do not think there is, but Ineed to find some support for my position or else learn something new.Thank you-- Mark D Powell --

View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed Mgmt Studio and SQL 2005 on a new server - I imported my complete old SQL 2000 databases - then shut down my Original SQL 2000 server and used that Idenitical IP as the Mgmt Studio SQL 2005's IP
I am using Linux Jakarta Tomcat v5.0.27 and all SQL references are referring only to the IP number of ther server and not using DNS -
Originally I was getting an error when my system tried to access the SQL stating that it was an untrusted connection - I then realized that the IP number referred to was not the primary IP and I changed that so the it was.
Both the Linux and SQL 2005 are now using network IPs and then I got a message that the password that I was using was not strong enough so I changed that as well - then all my logging dissappeared
When I try to connect now there is no indication in any log (SQL nor Windows) that I am attempting to connect - the website just hangs for like 3 minutes and fails the login stating that the username/password is incorrect (or it could not verify it) even though I changed nothing on the Tomcat side and it was logging before the IP werent matching.
Is there a significance difference between SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 that will not allow my Tomcat to connect?
Few Addl Notes
I can ping to and from each server
I can telnet from Linux to SQL 2005
Linux of course is not part of my Windows 2003 Domain but it is on the same network
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
Hi ,
I have around 5 databases with same structure used to store data for different locations and services.
I have created an intermediate database which will have all the stored procedures to access data from above 5 databases.
My queries are common to all the databases. so,I would like to pass database name as an argument to my stored proc and execure query on specified database.
I tried this doing using "USE Databasename " Command. but it says ...We can not use "USE command " in stored proc or triggers. so ..what i did is ..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE TestDB_access(@dbname varchar(100))
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @localDB varchar(100)
Set @LocalDB=@dbname
if @LocalDB='XYZ'
EXEC ('USE XYZ ')
elseif @LocalDB='ABC'
EXEC ('USE ABC')
Select * from Mytable
END
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I run this from my database , it gives me an error "unable to find table "mytable".
What is the best way to make my queries work with all the databases.
Thanks in advance

Hello there
I have a customer that wants to start using SQL Server 7.0 instead of Oracle, but they have a lot of Oracle applications (made in Developer 2000 and Forms). Due to the big effort needed to convert those applications (to Visual Basic), they want to be able somehow to migrate only data from Oracle to SQL Server, and then use some tool that will allow them to use the same applications with the SQL Server 7.0 engine.
I found on the "SQL Server Developer's Kit" a document describing the process of migrating data and applications from Oracle to SQL Server. There is a mention to an Oracle tool called "Oracle Gateway to SQL Server" that will translate calls received by the Oracle engine to the SQL Server engine, but this approach will still require the existence of Oracle servers (which is the thing the customer no longer wants).
The second option mentioned on that document, and the one that seems more attractive, is the use of Oracle "Open Client Adapter" (OCA) that will allow Developer 2000 applications to communicate directly to SQL Server via ODBC. However, I have been unable to find (on the Oracle site) any documentation regarding this tool.
Has anynoe heard or used such tool (OCA) ? Any comments, tips, drawbacks, experience you could share ? Any other idea on how a thing like that could be accomplished ? Perhaps a third-party application that can act as a gateway between the Forms app and ODBC/SQL Server, or that will be able to generate VB code from a Developer 2000/Forms app...
Any help will be appreciated.
Please respond directly to me, as I am not a member of the distribution list.

Hi all,I need to gain access to a remote SQL Server 2000 storing my data.The remote SQL machine can only be accessed via an internet connection,that is - it is not part of my network.I know Enterprise Manager can do the job, but EM only comes bundled inMS SQL Server, which is not installed on the client machine.Please let me know which other (preferably free) tools can performsuch remote access.Thanks,Gilad Haimov
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a number of triggers that call a stored procedure that returns a cursor. The triggers then use the results of this cursor to do other actions.
My problem is that this works fine in SQL2000 but just won't work in SQL2005. When I try to access the results of the returned cursor, I get an error -2147217900 could not complete cursor operation because the set options have changed since the cursor was declared.
If I port the code contained in the sp into the trigger, it runs fine. But having to port over the sp's code defeats the whole concept of being able to re-use the sp.
Does anybody have any ideas of what could be going on?
I look forward to a quick response.

Based on our database infrastructure, we need to secure our SQL databases. The security issue concerns on allowing a limited number of Domain Admin users to access the SQL databases.
We tried certain ways, based on the documents in the Microsoft web site, but we couldn€™t reach to the point of preventing the Domain Admin users accessing the SQL databases.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me how to access all the rows in a table using script task?
I want to access each row in a table get their values and put it in a global variable. Can anyone hwlp mw with this please.
Thanks in advance,
I have an application where the columns in a datatable stored in a variable (as a dataset with one table in it) are dynamic. This means that the number of columns and their data types will vary. Also, I would like to access the column names. For these reasons it is not very practical to map the columns to variables.
Is there a way to use a Script Task within a For Each Loop (with ADO enumeration) to read the data row by row (presumably as a datarow) getting the column names and coloumn values by numeric (column) index?
Thanks,

I'm creating a new Integration Services Project that copies data out of a SQL 7 server, transforms it, and places the data on a SQL 2005 (SP 2) Server. When defining a lookup transformation, if I specify an OLE DB Connection to my server running SQL 7 as the reference table, as soon as I click on the Colums tab, Visual Studio closes / crashes and dumps me to windows. I don't get an error message. If however I specify a connection to a server running SQL 8, or SQL 2005, no problems.
Is this supposed to happen?
My workstation is running Windows XP Pro SP2, Visual Studio 2005 Pro.

Question in 2 parts...
(1) Forgive me for asking the obvious first... is this the correct forum to post a MSSQL2K DTS question? If not then can you point me to the form 'cause I couldn't find it. If the post is okay here then read on, please.
(2) DTS Question -- Note: the package runs once per day
I've created a package that does a transform to an Excel worksheet. Works like a charm. However, I want new data to write over existing data. Now, new data is appended. I worte a VBS ActiveX script to clear the contents of the Excel file first but that caused a new problem, i. e. the package throws an error saying that column names couldn't be found. Made a change to keep the column names... well that didn't work either.
So, how can I overwrite spreadsheet data with new data?
Any and all help will be deeply appreciated.
thanks in advance.
