Hi,
I'm a MS Access developer who needs to help someone migrate/convert from a 'finished' SQL application to Access. How do I gain access to the SQL backend so I can examine/export the raw data? For example, in Access, I would hold down the Shift key while opening the program and it would give me editing rights to the database.
Please be very specific because I have zero experience with SQL.
Thanks,
David
Dear All
Please I need an urgent help

The database must be online to have a database snapshot.
Please urgently
Hello all ASP'ers, I'm very familiar with .net code and data access as it is what I do for a living. However, what I don't do a lot is make my own web project from scratch. All our DB connections are handled through a DB class that we instansiate and use, quite easy. BTW, we hit an Oracle DB and code in C# in VS 2008 Team Developer.Here's my (simple I hope) dilemma.I'm using VS2008, C#, SQL server database. I put a text box and a button on the front page (of my web page) for users to enter their email address for a newsletter. I created the DB by right-mouse-clicking on my project icon in the Solution Explorer, add new item, then selected SQLServer Database, it and saved it. It now appears in the Solution Explorer. I've added the table and columns I need but for the life of me I cannot connect to it. I've seen TONS of connection string examples but I need help getting the proper syntax for my situationI have not created a user ID or a password for the database. What do I put in for the DataSource and the database?I dragged the database icon into my code and got the local path wher it resides:C:FilesWebProjects2008WbProjApp_DataNews.mdfHere is the most common connection string I see for SQL Server:SqlConnection Conn = new SqlConnection(" + "Data Source=Your server name;" + <------ What goes here?"database=Your Database Name;" + <------ What goes here?"UID=UserID of the server;" + <------ Can I get rid of this?"PWD=password of the server;"); <------ Can I get rid of this?I've done a different project using an Access DB and have that guy up on the web working great, I just can't get htis one connected and the data a' flowin'.Please help, this is my personal website and I want to use SQL Server but I'm getting frustrated and just might go back to Access, aaaaggghhhhhhh...Once I get past the Conn.Open(); in a try/catch I'll be good. I've got the rest of the data commands in place and ready to go. Here is a link to a visual to help you see what I'm doing, it's just a shot of my solution explorer.

I Have read a few of the postings and I hate to beat a dead horse. But I am desperatly looking for your Help...
I am converting all of my Access Databases over to SQL server 2005. but the catch is that I need to keep Access as my front-end. One of the problems that I have faced (and there maybe more) but when it comes to running queries (especially Delete), I cannot seem to get things to work.
I would like to just store all of my data in SS2K5 and have all of my queries and forms run in Access.
Why is it that I am getting errors that do not seem to make sense (Access Error 3086) when I have opened up all of the permissions associated to my database?
Please let me know if anyone has any type of solution, or some place that I can go to that will help me understand this a little more.
my query is pretty simple.
DELETE Opsec_View.*
FROM Opsec_View;
Dear Friends,
We have MS Access database with Forms and Reports, which was started 10 years ago by users and now the data is growing very rapidly.
Did anyone tried by having MS Access as front end and SQL Server 2000/2005 as backend with minimum modifications to the forms and reports in MS Access?
Please let me know, your ideas and if there are any links in the web or in Microsoft please provide here.
Thanks in advance,
I have a back-end front-end application in MS Access. Instead of using MS Access queries it gets data via recordsets generated from SQL scripts in VBA routines.
I'm planning to upgrade it to use SQL Server as the back-end. However I need to retain the alternative option of using a file based back-end. (It currently has the capacity to be switched between alternative Access .mdb back-end files.) Is there any information available on how to do this and on how to get Access to synchronize between SQL Server and SQL Server CE back-ends? (Eventually the application will be migrated to VB.NET, but that is a long way down the track.)

Hi,
I'm not sure if this question should be in this thread but anyway...
I have a form (Mricosoft Access front end) in which the user enter a Pending Date in one of the fields. The date is populated into my backend (SQL Server) withouht problems.
Whenever the issue which had the pending date in the field is resolved I'd like to delete this date from this field and also from the back end. At the moment I'm not being able to pass the "value" Null to my back end (probably because it's a datetime type). I've searched the net throughout and I couldn't find a way around it. Only found solution to when the data is not date but numbers/letters, etc... Any ideas on how can I sort this out?
Many thanks

I know its a weird request, but we have created an application with sql server but our client wants a version which can be put onto disk.
We decided to create the stored procedures into queries, would this be the best idea and if so does anyone know if there is a freeware software that can do this or will I have to painstakingly re-create the queries?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Hi all :
I hope this is an easy one for some of you - this is the scenario :
1) I have an Access Application that has been upsized to SQL
2) We are now replicating it with a second office
3) When we started doing the Merge Replication, the ROWGUID was added to each table
4) When we attempt to add a new record to the table, it allows us to add 3 fields, then the record 'jumps' to the indexed location of the ROWGUID
5) The 'jump' is undesirable as we then have to resort the table by key and finish its input.
5) We have our own primary identity field that SQL seems to be ignoring.
Any help would be really great

I am trying to create a SQL Job which will report on another job which hasn't finished within its normal completion time. I schedule the new job late enough after the first job that the first should have finished by then.
I would like to have just queried msdb..sysjobhistory.run_status. However, this seems to only report on job STEP status - and after the step is finished! It is always showing run status = 1 (Complete).
Does anyone know the base meta-data table and column I could query? Enterprise Manager shows the current status as running and I want to know where it gets that.
If it is still running, I will raise an error to notify our support group, etc.
PS: My job steps include a combination of DTSRun commands and TSQL commands. I don't think the flavour of commands should matter...
Thanks.
Currently we have a process where 4 files are ftp'd down to our server. We have DTS package which tests for the existence of these files and once these exist, the DTS package loads the data from these files into a SQL database. Sometimes, however, though the files exist they haven't finished being downloaded so that when the DTS package tries to process them the package is saying the files are empty (though they're not).
Thanks for any help.
My ssis package errors out because one of the database connection failed. I successfully logged error but also indicated that package finished successfully. My confusion is if a sheduling software schedules this package, what would be return code sent by dtexe... . would it be success or failure? In this scnerio i want it to return failure so that appropriate team can be contacted.
thanks,

I have a SSIS package which process 12699 files in a folder. After about 20 minutes it looks like the loading is finished (the record count of database table doesn't change any more) and I believe it's finished, but if I check the Progress tab, it's still showing the file name being processed and still moving. So my first question is: is it still loading files or it's just that the progress message is behind?
Then I click on stop debugging, after a while it stopped but then it's frozen, nothing responds no matter what I click. I haven't saved the package yet so I don't want to close it out. Should I just wait? And what is the problem?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!!
p.s. I'm exploring SSIS and will convert our current DTS packages to SSIS so you'll see me post more and more questions down the road.
I have a job I want to run everyday but before this job starts and I want to check and see if another job has completed before I start this job. i would like to do this in the job steps in SSMS. step 1 is job 'xxxxxxx' running if no go to step 2 if yes exit

Hi,
I want to generate a new snapshot using stored procedures. I want to wait for the snapshot files to be created and then execute a stored procedure. What's the best way to determine that the snapshot has completed successfully? I thought of doing something like:
exec msdb.dbo.sp_help_job
@job_name = @job_name
@job_aspect = 'job',
@execution_status = 1
however I can't put the results of that proc into a temp table because I get this error:
Msg 8164, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_get_composite_job_info, Line 72
An INSERT EXEC statement cannot be nested.
Any ideas? I'd like a T-SQL solution.
Thanks,
Mark.
Hi everyone! Good day!
I'm not really sure if my question should fall on Service Broker or T-SQL, but I hope someone helps me with this... After activating the stored procedure assigned to the queue, is there any way for me to find out if the stored procedure is already finished executing?
I have successfully sent messages to my queue but I have no way to know if all the processing is already done.
Thanks so much!
I am working with a stored procedure that needs to roll up a week number column once a week - columns are numbered 1-10, 1 being this week, 2 being last week and so forth
Once a week the 10th column is deleted, the 9th becomes 10, the 8th becomes the 9th and so forth and the 1st is calculated the week numbers are getting all screwed up - and we think it's because one statement starts before the one before it completes the statements go like this:
delete theTable where week_num=10;
update theTable set weeknum=10 where weeknum=9;
update theTable set weeknum=9 where weeknum=8;
and so forth
is that the reason? is there any way not to start one statement until the one before it finishes?
Dear Friends,
In the control flow, I have more than one sequence containers, and I have a script component that I want to be executed only when of 2 last sequence finished with sucess... these 2 sequences does not have any relation with each other...

Hello,I'm trying to create a simple back up in the SQL Maintenance Plan that willmake a single back up copy of all database every night at 10 pm. I'd likethe previous nights file to be overwritten, so there will be only a singleback up file for each database (tape back up runs every night, so each daysback up will be saved on tape).Every night the maintenance plan makes a back up of all the databases to anew file with a datetime stamp, meaning the previous nights file stillexists. Even when I check "Remove files older than 22 hours" the previousnights file still exists. Is there any way to create a back up file withoutthe date time stamp so it overwrites the previous nights file?Thanks!Rick
View 5 Replies View RelatedNew to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on the roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHello,
We are running Windows Server 2003 SP 1 and trying to upgrade SQL 2000 SP 4 to SQL 2005 using the command line.
The process finishes in under ten minutes. Summary.txt file we have this information:
Log File : C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGFilesSQLSetup_<ServerName>_SQL.log
Last Action : ValidateUpgrade
Error String : The installer has encountered an unexpected error. The error code is 2259. Database: Table(s) Update failed
Error Number : 2259
In the log file named SQLSetup_ServerName_Core.log I found the following:
Error: Action "LaunchLocalBootstrapAction" threw an exception during execution. Error information reported during run:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup Bootstrapsetup.exe" finished and returned: 1627
Aborting queue processing as nested installer has completed
Message pump returning: 1627
After receiving this info, I can navigate to the setup.bat for the SQL 2005 upgrade and complete the upgrade without error. We are planning on 500 of these, so manual updates is a very ugly concept.
I'd appreciate any and all ideas on where to go from here.
Most Sincerely.
We've recently upgraded to SQL Server 2014, and are now using SSIS integrated with Visual Studio. We have a SSIS project which contains about 20 packages which are nested in Sequence Containers and executed concurrently. These packages have been set up as project references.
The problem is that when I press the start button to run the packages, they all light up green reporting completion before the data has finished loading into the SQL database. If I press the stop button without waiting a sufficient length of time, then not all of the data gets loaded. i.e. a certain number of rows will be missing from some of the SQL tables.
If I click through to the individual package items and check the data flow progress while running, some of the data flows appear to hang at a certain number of rows without ever reaching completion. The number of rows indicated in the data flow is incorrect - i.e. it will count up to ~150,000 and stay there indefinitely in the running state, when in actual fact there are ~500,000 rows to load.
To clarify, the main package will show all items green and display the "Finished: Success" message in the log window, however when I drill through to certain packages in the set, they'll be stuck in the yellow running state, with no way of knowing whether they've actually completed or not.
My current workaround is to just wait a certain length of time before pressing the stop button. This bug doesn't seem to inhibit rows being loaded - it just incorrectly identifies the point when the load finishes, causing people to terminate the load prematurely.
This issue only occurs if I run the project from the main package container. If I execute the child packages individually, they correctly report the number of rows being loaded and light up green once complete.
Hello,I am hoping you can help me with the following problem; I need to process the following steps every couple of hours in order to keep our Sql 2000 database a small as possible (the transaction log is 5x bigger than the db).1.back-up the entire database2.truncate the log3.shrink the log4.back-up once again.As you may have determined, I am relatively new to managing a sql server database and while I have found multiple articles online about the topics I need to accomplish, I cannot find any actual examples that explain where I input the coded used to accomplish the above-mentioned steps. I do understand the theory behind the steps I just do not know how to accomplish them!If you know of a well-documented tutorial, please point me in the right direction.Regards.

View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005
databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without
resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database
to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I
want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having
several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day
operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include
night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a
biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance
with the daily activities when the night time processing isn€™t completed on
time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I
don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if
that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also,
it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring
on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our
application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a
night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data
Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most
of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes
stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening
the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the
database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended
state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended
state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I
did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put
in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended
state. I am also not happy with the
fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively
running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU
usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would
show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would
then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the
query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same
situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun.
All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very
suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of
the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and
they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of
years before I upgrade to SS 2005.
