How can I query (using TSQL) the data space used by a table in SQL Server 2005?
This is possible using SQL Serve Management studio. I can right click on table name and check the proeprties. But I want to write a TSQL script to check disk space used by all the individual tables in the database. How can I do that?
The problem is that I have (for example) following data
AA AA LH
BB BB ML
CC CC QA
DD DD PS
in space delimited file and i want to populate a database using SSIS and it is not working. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
I have a table 300+GB. it holds 10 years of Data. I need to delete 5 years of data and put it to another server so I can have more space.
If I delete 5 years of data, Transaction log gets so huge and size of the database even gets bigger because of the .ldf file which even gets bigger! I think I can shrink the log file and the data file. Is this the best way to do it?
Is there a way of extracting data from MS Excel using MS SQL Server 2005 Express?

I have tried several approaches.
A) I created a backup of database on my local, then placed a copy on the server. Then I tried to restore through Server Management Studio. I get this error.

C: I have also tried opening the Database, and back up file through Server Management Studio. without success.
D: I also tried Windows and Software update at microsoft update, but no updates were recommended for Version on Server.
I'm surprised this is so hard. My original data base was created in same family of software. 2005 MS SQL Express. I could use some direct help from someone experienced with this. Am I doing it wrong or are the DB versions incompatible.

Hi All ..
I have 2 disk drive
C and D
The SQL Server data and log files are stored in D: drive
I have only 575 MB free spaces in C: drive
I have a Sql data base name StoresDB and there is a table name CustTBL
There are almost 6555500 rows in that table
My issues are whenever I am querying the CustTbl from Query Analyzer
(Select * from CustTbl)
The C: space decreased to 40 kb
And the same time,I am not getting all the rows in the query result
In Query analyzer Message Tab it is showing (6555151 row(s) affected)
But In the Grid Tab it is showing Grid#1 :6318847 rows or sometime less rows....
What is the reason to for these two issues?
I have updated the index and statistics for CustTbl TABLE but not got any changes
..
When I closed the query window the C: drive again showing 575 MB free space
Hi all,
I have a problem reading binary data in MSSQL using the Server Mgmt Studio. All it shows in the column is "<Binary data>". Is there a way to view this data at least the SIZE?

Disk space is increasing at an alarming rate (about 500MB a day). Shrink of database seems to have no effect. It is a queueing table so data is inserted then a few minutes later it gets processed & deleted.

I am using sql server 2008 r2 on my end. I have created a database named testDB. I have a lot of tables with some log tables in this. some tables have contain lack of records in log table.
So my purpose is that I want to fix the table size of those tables(log tables) and want to move records in other database table placed on another location. So my database has no problem.
is there any way to make such above steps which I want for my database?
Is there already built any such functionality in sql server?
I am a starter of vb.net and trying to build a web application. Do anyone know how to create a temp table to store data from database?

Then, i need to output the data from temp table to the screen. Do anyone can help me?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm about to embark on writing some code in perl or VBscript that automatically synchronises a constantly updated Access database with an MSSQL database.
I know MSSQL has an import tool built into Enterprise manager but I'm wondering if theres a stored procedure that does this?
The way I'm thinking of doing it is to read the all the access tables into separate hash arrays and then INSERTing them into the MSSQL database after checking for any duplicates. This all sounds a bit time consuming (there are a large number of tables) and processor intensive.
If anyones done anything like this before, I'd love to hear their views......!
Thanks!
Hi,
I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY
(ACTIVITY_NAME ASC, PROCESS_NAME ASC, START_TIME ASC, ISMONITORED ASC)
INCLUDE
(INSTANCE_ID, ACTIVITY_TYPE, STATUS, END_TIME, ORGANIZATION);
Any help in creating such indexes in 2000 version is welcome.
Thanks,
Suresh.

Hi!
What is the best way to migrate MSSQL 2005 Express -> MSSQL 2005 Srv?
Does abyone know how to compare data-type xml in a temp/variable/physical table in MSSQL 2000?
I tried this works in MSSQL 2005,
Code Snippet
create Table #t1 ([c1] int identity(1,1) not null, [c2] text)
create Table #t2 ([c1] int identity(1,1) not null, [c2] text)
Insert into #t1
Values('This is a test')
Insert into #t2
Values('This is a test')
Select * from #t1
Select * from #t2
Select * from #t1 where [c2] LIKE (Select [c2] from #t2)
drop table #t1
drop table #t2
but not MSSQL 2000.
Server: Msg 279, Level 16, State 3, Line 12
The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression.
Is this true (from BOL)?
Code SnippetIn comparing these column values, if any of the columns to be compared are of type text, ntext, or image, FOR XML assumes that values are different (although they may be the same because Microsoft® SQL Server„¢ 2000 does not support comparing large objects); and elements are added to the result for each row selected.
As a normal sql user we are not able to get the disk space information by
executing 'xp_fixeddrive' extended stored procedure.
We are able to get the result using sa user and windows authenticated user.
Any help will be appreciated.

I've been tasked to move our production databases on MSSQL 2000 to 2005. I've supported MSSQL since version 6.5 and performed migrations to successor versions.
Current Environment is MSSQL 2000 32-bit with current Service Packs.
I've performed mock migrations on Test servers upgrading all Production instances simultaneously from MSSQL 2000 to 2005 32-bit. The Test environment is identical to Production minus server name, IP etc. Also I have a separate server with MSSQL 2005 installed where I use the DETACH / ATTACH and BACKUP / RESTORE method for migration / acceptance testing. There are approximately 30 databases totaling 70 GB. This has gone as expected and fairly successful. Vendors have been coordinated with to update code and staff for acceptance testing.
I'd prefer going directly to MSSQL 2005 64-bit instead if possible due to memory benefits etc. This is where I'd like some feedback prior to borrowing a 64-bit server for testing.
Upgrade options:
1. Is it better to migrate from MSSQL 2000 32-bit to 2005 64-bit via:
a. DETACH / ATTACH
b. BACKUP / RESTORE
c. Is one method more advantageous relating to the end result?
2. Regarding XP clients, have issues been experienced with the default SQL Server driver or is an alternate recommended for XP clients to connect to a MSSQL 64-bit server databases?
3. If you have performed this migration and have relevant experience please pass them along.
Thanks in advanace for taking the time to read this post.
I am using MSSQL 2005 and have created a function that allows me to use regular expressions in my SQL queries.
My question is I have a pattern buried in a field of misc data that I need to pull out just that pattern and discard the rest of the data. Here is the Regular Expression I am using
select field1 from table1
where dbo.RegExMatch (field1,'[a-zA-Z]{4}[0-9]{6}[a-zA-Z]{2,4}')=1
This returns all values in the field that match the expression. What I want to do now is remove all data from the field on the left and right of the expression that does not match the expression. How would I accomplish this without reading through the 200k+ records and writing rules for every exception I run across?
so I could have Gar b/a ge 'THE GOOD DATA' m/or1 ba4d da....ta. All I want to do is return 'THE GOOD DATA'
Dear friends
I need to report the amount of free space in each datafile of a database.
I have tried sys.dm_db_file_space_usage , but the documentation says that it only works for the TempDB.

I have a quick question maybe someone can answer me:
Suppose I have a database with data and log on same device, by default,
3 segments are created: system,default and logsegment.
Is the allocation , or any limit, among these segments(i.e. for system table, other table and indexes , log) done by the system ? or will the space required be allocated when they are needed ?
(i.e. I can have a situation of 10% database space used for data, 90% used for logging and I can also have 90% used for data, 10% used for log ?)
Is there any control us we can make ?
Of course, for recovery and performance reason, it is always recommended to have data and log on 2 diff. device.
Thanks for anybody that can help me with this.
When I double click on a database in the Enterprise Manager and the "Database Space Available" (in the Database tab) always shows 0.00 MB even though there is space available. This only happens to one of our database. The data device is 1.8GB and log device is 360MB and I've allocated all the space from device to database.
We're using SQL Server 6.5 sp3 in NT 4.0 sp3.
Anybody knows why is SQL Server reporting 0.00MB when you know there is space avaialble. I need to know the data space available and log space available so that I can expand it when the space runs low. Please help.
Thank you,
Jimmy Jen

Hello all, just registered on this site.
I have been running mssql 2005 and mssql 2000 on the same machine with no issues for a couple of months.
For some reason after a reboot the service is saying "Starting".
I can't stop it.
I am fairly new to sql server and any help would be appreciated. If you need more info (logs etc) let me know and I'll grab any info required.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
at first a few things about my system:
I use Visual Studio 2005 Pro on WinXP SP2 and I have recently installed MSSQL Server 2005 Express on my system.
I want to establish a connection to the MSSQL Server from C++ (not .NET) using ADO.
For this I use the following connection String:
Open(L"Provider=SQLNCLI;Server=FREECASTLE;Integrated
Security=SSPI;DataTypeCompatibility=80;MARS
Connection=True;",L"",L"",ADODB::adConnectUnspecified);
This works. But this is not exactly that what I wanted, because here
just my Windows Authentication is used. I want to be able to pass
username and password for users that are allowed to access the SQL
Server. Here my first confusion begins: I have the option to pass the username and password into the connection string (User Id and Password) or I guess that I can pass them also as parameter 2 and parameter 3. But with trying both of these options I get always a connection error that my specified Username is not be trusted ( I don't know how the message looks in the English version, because I have the german version), but I suppose you know what I mean.
Of course I have to create such accounts in the SQL Server before trying to login with them. I guess that I made something wrong when doing this. I started the Server Manager Studio and there I navigated into the Object Explorer. In the folder Security I created a new account for testing (using SQL Server Authentication). But I cannot use that account for logging in.
I have to admit that I am very new to the SQL Server thing, so I hope someone can help me or can give me hints on what to do better. I am very thankful for every reply...
An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
MShah
Does there a way or script to find the rows, space used by the specific tables based on every year.
