Hi fellows ,
there is a senerio where i want to update GUIDS in columns "pubid" and "artid" generate in sysmergepubliction and sysmergeAricles respectivly in sqlserver 2005 ?
2nd is there any easy way to generate scripts of triggers of all replicated tables in subscriber at one .
ok her is my question.
there are two developers in different offices and they have started with the same db and keep modifying the stored procedures. in a point they want to update their copies of the DB with each other. Is there a easy way to do this in MS Sql server 2005.

Hi experts;
I have a problem with unicode character 0x2300
I created this table
create table testunicode (Bez nchar(128))
Insert Data
insert into testunicode (Bez)values('Œ€„¢')
with 2 Unicode characters
Œ€ = 0x2300
„¢ = 0x2122
Selecting the data
select Bez from testunicode
I see
"?„¢"
„¢ = 0x2122 is ok but instead of 0x2300 there is 0x3f
When I modify the insert statement like that ( 8960 = 0x2300 )
insert into testunicode (Bez)values(NCHAR(8960)+'„¢')
and select again voila i see
"Œ€„¢"
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks
I am trying to 'load' a copy of a SQLServer 2000 database to SQLServer 2005 Express (on another host). The copy was provided by someone else - it came to me as a MDF file only, no LDF file.
I have tried to Attach the database and it fails with a failure to load the LDF. Is there any way to bypass this issue without the LDF or do I have to have that?
The provider of the database says I can create a new database and just point to the MDF as the data source but I can't seem to find a way to do that? I am using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Thanks!!
I have an app that uses a sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to connect to a sqlserver 2000.
Is it possible to do a direct replacement of sqlserver 2000 with sqlserver 2005 express just by reconfiguring the app to point to the express? The app would still be using the sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to try and make the connection.
If that is a possibility, what can be some differences in the configuration? Previously with 2000 the config information I entered is:
server name: "machinename"( or ip). I've also tried "machiname/SQLEXPRESS"
DB name: name of db instance
port: 1433(default)
user and pass.
My attempts so far results in
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing socket."
and
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Unable to connect. Invalid URL."
Hello,
I have an SQLServer Mobile database, and I would like to know if there is a way to upgrade it to SQLServer 2005 (.mdf) database. My database has no records in it, just the structure (tables etc). What I am actually asking is if I can create automatically a new SQLServer 2005 Database with the same structure as my existin SQLSErver Mobile database
Thanks in advance,

Hello people.
I am in the process of planning a server upgrade to sql2005 x64.
I created 2 linked servers: one to a SQL2000 sp4 server and one to a SQL7.0 SP3.
I have the following error when I query the linked servers.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "Unspecified error".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "The stored procedure required to complete this operation could not be found on the server. Please contact your system administrator.".
Msg 7311, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_TABLES_INFO" for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.
I am aware of KB 906954.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;906954
I applied the instcat.sql on the SQL2000SP4 server and my linked server issues for that one are gone.
However, I ran the instcat.sql script on the SQL7.0 sp3 server and the linked server is still giving me an issue.
Can someone help me find a solution to this?
Hello,I am creating a new database and I was advised to use Sequential Guids.I was reading some information and, as far as I understood, I can use NEWSEQUENTIALID. This can be used when I have a uniqueidentifier column as the key of a clustered index to avoid fragmentation during insert. Ok, so I use NEWSEQUENTIALID instead of NEWID.But I will use LINQ most of the time instead of Stored Procedures.So can I specify in my tables scripts to use Sequential Guids when, for example, a record is created? And am I right when using Sequential Guids?Here is a part of my code:-- Blogs ...
create table dbo.Blogs
(
BlogID uniqueidentifier not null
constraint PK_Blog primary key clustered,
Title nvarchar(400) null,
Description nvarchar(2000) null,
CreatedDate datetime null
)
-- Posts ...
create table dbo.Posts
(
PostID uniqueidentifier not null
constraint PK_Post primary key clustered,
BlogID uniqueidentifier not null,
AuthorID uniqueidentifier not null,
Title nchar(1000) null,
Body nvarchar(max) null,
UpdatedDate datetime not null,
IsPublished bit not null,
constraint FK_Posts_Blogs
foreign key(BlogID)
references dbo.Blogs(BlogID)
on delete cascade,
constraint FK_Posts_Users
foreign key(AuthorID)
references dbo.Users(UserID)
on delete cascade Thanks,Miguel
I'm really sorry if this is too OT but it is related to replication...
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe're trying to set a new standard at my office, of using GUIDs as database ID fields - all new tables in all databases will have a GUID as the ID field, using the UniqueIdentifier data type.
The problem that we are running into, is that different applications interpret the UniqueIdentifier data type differently - ADO 2.x interprets it with the opening and closing { } braces. ADO.NET does not include the { and } in the GUID structure, SQL Server Query Analyzer does not include the { } braces, and SQL Server Enterprise Manage does include the { }
so we end up with results like this:
ADO 2.x: {012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd}
ADO.NET: 012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd
Query Analyzer: 012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd
Enterprise Manager: {012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd}
The problem with this is in two parts:
1) VB6 does not have a GUID structure or data type, so we are treating GUIDs as strings... but VB6 doesn't recognize "{012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd}" and "012345678-abcd-ef01-2345-6789abcd" as the same string
2) when sending a URL link through an email, the { } braces break the link - in all email applications that we have tested. This include Groupwise 6, Groupwise 6.5, IPSwitch Web IMail, Outlook 2000, and Outlook Express (IE 6).
We're becoming very frustrated with the problems at hand, and need to know how others have worked around these problems. Please respond with any kind of advice or any real life situations where you have encountered this and found a solution, etc.
Thanks.
Hi every body,

I try to reinstall the SQLServer 2005 but I have problem when install work station component on my and the error is "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor". Please help me to fix this bug. I do not want to reformat my machine.

Hello,
I've been thinking about using GUIDs as primary keys within my application. One problem I have with this approach is that GUIDs generated with NEWID() are not sequential, and this can have a huge impact on insertion performance due to fragmented indexes. It would seem that NEWSEQUENTIALID() solves this issue, however it doesn't seem very practical to use this on SQL Server Mobile. With SQL Server, you can specify an OUTPUT clause for an INSERT statement, and using this, determine what the last inserted GUID was. There doesn't seem to be such an option in SQL Server Mobile, so how can I get the last generated GUID so that I can attach children records to my parent record? It's been suggested that you could use the MAX() function to get the latest GUID, but there is a problem with this approach - NEWSEQUENTIALID() guarantees that the GUIDs generated will be sequential for the machine generating them, but makes no guarantees about how this will fit in with GUIDs generated by other machines. It is entirely possible that GUIDs generated by a different machine will be larger than the latest one generated on the current machine, so using MAX() to determine the latest value doesn't seem like a valid option to me.
Does anybody have any ideas on tackling this problem? Any thoughts on the suitability of using GUIDs as the primary key for SQL Server Mobile devices in general?
Thanks,
Adrien.
Am I looking at a potential bug here or do I not understand the feature properly? I have an ExecuteSQL task that inserts into a table for logging and includes the System::PackageID as one of the values. It's stored in my table as a uniqueidentifier. When I set the output variable in Parameter Mappings tab of the Execute SQL task to VarChar, all works great. WHen I set it to GUID as the data type in that tab, it outputs a different GUID than the actual System::PackageID variable.

Are Guids good or bad? I've spoken to people who hate them in databases, but the db's I'm using right now all use them, so there must be *some* people out there who like them. I'm interested to know what other people think.
thanks!
I need gurus input on the pros and cons of Seeded(int) Identity colums vs. UniqueIdentifier(GUIDs) columns for my db design.
As I understand it, merging the data of 2 independent db's both using IDENTITY columns would be very hairy because of the possibility of overlap. GUIDs are much more likely to be unique across different servers.
What I'd like to hear from others are the other pros and cons of the situation. I of course understand the performance hit suffered at the hands of the GUID.
Thanks for your help!
hello,
I have several tables that have guids as their primary keys and the tables are related as follows:
Table1 - primary key = ServiceNo (Guid), Filter Key = CampaignNo
Table2 - primary key = CostBasisNo (Guid), Foreign Key = ServiceNo (from Table1)
Table3 - primary key = UserId, Foreign Key = ServiceNo (from table1)
Table4 - primary key = SourceServiceNo (Foreign Key from Table1), MemberServiceNo(Foreign Key from Table1)
what I need to do is copy all records from Table1 where CampaignNo = @CampaignNo and insert them into table1, this I can do easily but I will generate a new ServiceNo for each one and associated a new CampaigNo which is fine.
The problem comes in that I need to also copy the contents of Table2 = Table3 for all ServiceNos that have been copied from Table1 but insert the new Guid that will have been created when copying the rows in Table1
This is further compounded when I need to do the same to Table4 but this time I need to insert the newid's for SourceServiceNo and the related MemberServiceNo which all would have changed.
I haven't the first clue where to start with this task, do I need to use temporary tables, cursors? any help gratefully received, even if it's a pointer to the most efficient approach.
regards
The UPDATE table FROM syntax is not supported by Oracle.I am looking for a syntax that is understood by both Oracle and SqlServer.Example:Table1:id name city city_id1 john newyork null2 peter london null3 hans newyork nullTable2:id city23 london24 paris25 newyorkUPDATE table1SET city_id = table2.idFROM table1, table2WHERE table1.city = Table2.cityIf possible I do not want to have two different statements for Oracle andSqlServerPlease do not tell me that these tables are not normalized, it's just anexample!Thanks for any hints.Jan van Veldhuizen

I've been playing around with the new data controls (DetailsView,FormView) and have been having problems when attempting to update a record that has a uniqueidentifier as its primary key.I get the error message:
Object must implement IConvertible. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.InvalidCastException: Object must implement IConvertible.I gather this is because there is a bug that has propagated from the beta version.One suggested work around is from http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:GDjA62POtgcJ:scottonwriting.net/sowBlog/archive/11162005.aspx+Implicit+conversion+from+data+type+sql_variant+to+uniqueidentifier+is+not+allowed.+Use+the+CONVERT+function+to+run+this+query.&hl=en
The crux of the problem, it appears, is that the <asp:Parameter> value for the uniqueidentifier field is, by default, set to Type=�Object�. To fix this, simply remove the Type property altogether. That is, change the SqlDataSource parameter setting from something like:
<asp:SqlDataSource ...> <InsertParameters> <asp:Parameter Name=�UserId� Type=�Object� /> ... </InsertParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
to:
<asp:SqlDataSource ...> <InsertParameters> <asp:Parameter Name=�UserId� /> ... </InsertParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
This change worked for me; once the Type was removed the exception ceased and the updates/inserts worked as expected.Unfortunately this only partially worked for me as while it is fine for deletes it won't work for updates.If anyone can help shed any light on this I would greatly appreciate it.CheersMark

Pls advice?
It appears to update only the first qualifying row. The trace shows a row count of one when there are multiple qualifying rows in the table. This problem does not exist in JDBC 2000.
