Dear All, i have a question abt winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. i am using VB.net of Visual Studio 2005 My platform is using a PDA with winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. The Host program is using dbf files on desktop side.
I got a problem of how to sync / read the sql CE data from a windows application.
so, i wanna ask,
1. any method to access the data from winCE data by windows application? or can i convert the sdf file to windows readable files? or any others?
2. Can i use a MDB to sync with SQL server CE? can i synchronize the mobile device which has a SQL Server CE database with the Access database on the desktop?
last question, 3. is that windows CE .net 4.2 not support pocket access (cdb) anymore?
I have a software written in C#, using RDA to sync access database from desktop. But it is tricky that some time during "Pull" data from SQL Server Agent, my PDA tell me "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT".
This also happening when I try to unplug the ethernet cable from my desktop however the push and pull actions did not required to go through internet.
Here are part of my codes m_intdb = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess("http://desk01:1024", "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW");
m_intdb.InternetUrl = "http://desk01:1024"; m_intdb.LocalConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW""; m_intdb.Pull("pulltest", "SELECT * from pullTest", "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW", RdaTrackOption.TrackingOff, "Err_PullTest");
and the error message look like A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT.
How to access the SQL mobile database(.sdf) using ASP.Net?
When i try to add the System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll as a Reference it shows the following error.
Error 1 Could not load file or assembly 'System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Scenario: In general user will take database backup from database server to local system. User perform some changes to his local database based on his requirement. Again user connects to database server and click on update, local database should update to server database by informing each record status to the user. ex: record 1 updated / call closed do you want to update?
Here local database is going to be Pocket pc database and server database is on SQLDatabase. Can any one suggest best way to implement this feature in Windows Pocket pc, c#. I would appreciate your reply.
I want to have an application like a web front end on a pda where customer details can be added into a database. Then later the user connects to the internet and sync the pda database with the database on the server. I want the infomation from the pda database to update the data on the server database.
I know this is a big question but any help would be appreciated.
I'm in the planning stages of a new application and upper mgmt needs this question answered. I am planning to use SQL Mobile 2005 on the hand held devices and SQL Server 2005 as the server. What kind of hardware/configuration do I need that would allow 500 mobile devices to sync at roughly the same time? Any reccomendations on design issues is also welcome.
The business community is all on the same schedule and past experience shows that that do things in large groups. I need to plan for the worst case. Any input would be appreciated.
If I have 2 mobile databases, 1 on my desktop and the other on a PDA, how do i synchronize both these database? Are there any vb samples where i can refer to?
I have just upgraded from a working app for Pocket PC 2003 developed on MS SQL 2000 and VS 2003 to Mobile 5, MS SQL 2005 and VS 2005 and have been nable to get anything working.
I decided to go back to basics and just try to sync a SQL2005 and SQL mobile database by following the MS doc "Creating a mobile application with SQL Server mobile" and "Step by Step: Developing a SQL Mobile App with Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005". Unfortunately I have n't been able to get either of these 2 examlpes working either. The Database, publications, subscriptions etc are all created OK yet when I come to sync I get the following error:
"A request to send data to the computer running iis has failed"
I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could offer me any clues as how to approach this.
I have a publication on a Sql 2000 (SP4) server. This publication has dynamic filtering enabled. What I want to do is create an interface which will generate a new dynamic snapshot based on filtering input from users. So far I can create the dynamic snapshot easy enough and I can see the filtered results on a Sql 2000 subscriber. However, there seems to be no way to configure a mobile database to point to the dynamic snapshot. This is easy to configure in a Sql 2000 subscription - the options are right there are on the properties page. Yet, it seems like the mobile database only points to the required unfiltered snapshot through the IIS proxy.
Is there any way to force the mobile database to use the dynamic snapshot instead?
we currently have a web server/db on-site and a similar backup machine across the country. we're using a pretty bad backup strategy. we zip up a backup file, thats done on the main server every night, then ftp over to the back up server then run a restore.
lately ive been having problems with the main server. i would like to have the machines sync'd up as close as possible.
ive searched the threads and noticed replication and log shipping to be the most practical, but im assuming most of the machines are on the same domain.
what would be my best bet for machines connected over the internet, no vpn?
also the db on the main machine get queried/inserts all day from 7am - 6:30pm
I have tried the Sync the data from sql server mobile (.SDF) to Sql server 2005 (.mdf).In push command, i am getting the error "Sql Server Everywhere encountered problems when opening the database". string rdaOleDbConnectString = @"Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=master;Data Source=PRASSANAPRASANNA;Password=master"; qlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = null; try { rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess(); rda.LocalConnectionString = "Data Source=D:/DATABASE/test.sdf"; rda.InternetUrl = http://localhost/Dataset/sqlcesa30.dll; rda.Push("company", rdaOleDbConnectString, RdaBatchOption.BatchingOn); MessageBox.Show("Completed");
}
catch (SqlCeException)
{
}
finally
{
rda.Dispose();
}
please guide me any one ours guys to solve this problem .
I have a project that requires that I filter certain data going to the mobile device via the publication based on user selected value on the mobile device. (Filter by location based on the selection of the location on the mobile prior to syncronization).
Now, our current authentication model is Windows Authentication, and changing that to Username based authentication is not feasable, and using the users account to pass that value to the database is the only way I can think of to do this... (Then filter based on username)
But then I thought that there has to be another way - such as passing a variable or parameter to the sync request during or before syncronization... Is this possible? If I could query the data being sent back up to the server, for instance, I could do so to retrieve the value I need.... Any ideas?
I use my Pocket PC XDA O2 mini for 2 years already and I don't have any problems when I sync it with my previous laptop which has Window XP operation system.
A few months ago, I bought a new laptop with Window Vista operation system, I could not sync my O2 mini with my PC. Then, I download Windows Mobile Device Center but my computer still could not recognize my O2 mini. My O2 mini has window mobile 2003 Second Edition Version 4.21.1088 operation system. Please let me know if you have any advices.

SQL Database Schema Sync We have development and production databases, when we change database schema in development database how can I synchronize it to production without creating data problems in production, is this possible in SQL2005? Or any external tool I can use?
I'm working on an application that will be running on two or more machines. Each machine is logging data to a local SQL Compact database. I would like to make these two computers sync the data with eachother, but I am unsure what the best method is to transfer data between machines in a table format. I think XML would work well, but there may be something easier, so I thought I'd ask. Do I want to use sockets to do this, or is there another type of connection that would work better?
All PCs will know the IP addresses of their peers. I forsee each PC having a server thread that is listening all the time. Each PC also has a client that checks to see if it can connect to the server on the other side. It then requests certain data, which the server part sends. Does this sound right?
The rest of the app is in Visual Basic 2008 Express.
We have been asked to look into using stored procedures with SQL Server 7.0 as a way to speed up a clients site. 99% of all the articles I have read along with all the books all say Stored Procedure should be used whenever possible as opposed to putting the SQL in your ASP script. However one of my colleagues has been speaking to Microsoft and they said that that they were surprised that our client wanted to use Stored Procedures as this was the old method of database access and that now he should really consider using COM objects for data access as itis much faster. Has anyone got any views on this or know of any good aticles regarding this matter ?
I'm working with a legacy database whose structure I cannot change. I'm building a web-based editor for one of the DB's tables. This table has a Primary Key called "Master_Idx" that is an Identity (autonumber) field.To start, I query the DB and populate a data table which is cached. This is used to "feed" the web form. Any additions, changes, and deletions are reflected in this cached table.The user then has the flexibility to press Save at any time, which ensures that the database is modified accordingly.Here's my question:When new records are added, I assign them a Master_Idx value, the first of which was calculated to be 1 + the Max(Master_Idx) value when the editing session started. But when I insert these records back into the database it's possible that another user might have also been doing similar editing (of different records from the same table), so there's no guarantee that the Master_Idx values in the data table will be identical to those in the DB. When I insert a record from the cached table back into the DB, what technique can I use to check what value was assigned to the Master_Idx? If it's not the same as in the cached table then I need to update it locally in a few places.I hope all of this makes sense but if it doesn't then let me know and I'll explain it in another way.Robert W.
hello everyone, i am developing a application using C#and .NEt compact framework. for that i need to sync pda data (in xml format) with the remote database server(SQL) and vice versa. please help me out thanks in advance.
I've stepped into a new environment and have never dealt with multiple data files on user databases only with Temp db.What would be the best way to get all my data files in sync. I have done this on databases that aren't that big in size or off in size by a lot. Here is what I have
How Sync the user and password from my Active Directory, to a SQL Database. Actually, my environment have a database with users and password added, my custom applications uses it like a passport, but now I want to use Active Directory to control these users, but I can't use windows authentication in my old apps. I was reading about Forefront Identity Manager to do this, but I need a free solution. The Sharepoint database sync user credentials with AD?

I currently use Access and have found that I need to migrate to SQL Server. I need setting it up.
Currently, I have multiple computers (home, office, laptop, etc.). On each of these computers, I have a folder which syncs via Dropbox. In this folder, I have my Access database which allows me to read/write to the Access database from any computer, and these changes are automatically synced to all the other computers via Dropbox.
I have installed the SQL Server database in the Dropbox folder then installed Management Studio on each computer. But only the computer which did the database install can link to the the SQL Server database. The other Management Studios cannot see the database.
Is there a way to achieve what I am after or is this a limitation of SQL Server? I do not want to have to manage a network or anything.
Hi, I have compact sql databases which will be local on multiple users devices. Due to space constraints, for one of the tables i have had to use auto incrementing integer which works fine for the local database but i would like to merge all of the users databases into a global database. The table format can be seen below:
Code SnippetCREATE TABLE Players ( ID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, FirstName NVARCHAR(32), LastName NVARCHAR(32) );
The Players table will merge fine as GUIDs are used. However, how will the sync capabilities of compact SQL handle the sessions table? When it pushes the local data to the remote database will it change the Sessions.ID column to a unique field (as no doubt lots of people will have 1, 2, 3 in their local databases and the global database must have a unique ID), and then transfer this changed ID back to the local database? Furthermore, if it changes the Sessions.ID column during the merge it will also need to update the SessionDetail.SessionID foreign key to maintain referential integrity, is this also handled?
So my question is, how much of this sync and data merge is automated and are there any good examples or pointers for my scenario? I cannot reasonably use a GUID for Session.ID as there will be lots of SessionDetail entries and the size would be far too much.
We have a SQL database that uses Active Directory with Windows Authentication. Can users that are members of the Active Directory group that has read/write access to the SQL database create ODBC connections to access the database directly and update the data? They dont have individual logins on the server. They are only members of the Active Directory group that has a login?
I need detailed instructions on how to connect to a database from a Microsoft Access 2007 database to a Microsft Office Accounting 2007 database. The accounting database is an SQL 2005 datbase. It has an instance name of "MSSMLBIZ".
When I try I get an SQL error 53. Do not have permissions or database does not exist.
I'am doing functionality test on DTS packages and saving my DTS packages to meta data services instead of saving them as local packages. We would like to see what information would be provided by saving them this way, but when we try to open the meta data browser (the 3rd icon under DTS) we get the following error:
An error occurred while trying to access the database information. The msdb database could not be opened.
