Newbie Question ---> Exporting Tables
Sep 3, 2002Hi all...
I noticed that when transferring tables from the local server to the remote server that some colums lost its properties ... For example, If I am sepcifying a column to have identity seed and identity increment, it is transferred to the server without these properties...
How make a carbon copy of tables from my local to the remote server ?
Thanks in advance
How To Add Data To My Tables (was SQL Server Newbie)
Feb 1, 2005Hi. I just set up my first sql server database and I've managed to connect to it via ASP as a test.
I'm not sure how to add data to my tables. In MS Access, you can edit the table and add records. How do I do that in SQL Server?
I'm using the Enterprise manager tool to create tables.... does it have something i can use?
Thanks
Non-matching Recrods 2 Tables (Newbie)
Jan 16, 2004Hi,
I am new to SQL and these forums, and have a quick simple question.
I am trying to view the records that do not match in 2 tables. I have tried a few different ways but keep getting results in the hundreds of thousands and the table only has 36 thousand reocrds.
Here is an example of what the two tables contain.
Table 1
customer_no eaddress_no name address (36000 records)
Table2
customer_no eaddress_no email (17000 records)
I need to find out which customers are not in table 2 by linking the eaddress_no numbers.
This is one of the scripts i ran that gives me the large results with a ton of dups:
SELECT *
FROM T_EADDRESS inner JOIN
T_CUST_LOGIN ON T_EADDRESS.eaddress_no
!= T_CUST_LOGIN.eaddress_no
Thanks in advance for any help with this.

RDLC Newbie Questions (hopefully)...connecting Dataset To Report That Contains Multiple Data Tables
Sep 12, 2007Hi All,
We are post-deployment with a serious reporting issue that's causing us to rethink our reporting solution. We're considering moving from what we have to SQL Server Reporting Services (client side).
I have spent the past couple of days getting up to speed on this feature and seeing if we can easily migrate it into our existing application. However, I've hit a couple of stumbling blocks and was hoping perhaps someone here could either tell me the solution or point me in the right direction.
I'm not having any problems creating basic reports (e.g. flat data).
However, I am having problems creating reports where there are related tables in a dataset.
The way it works with our existing solution is that I get a dataset (which contains several data tables) and point it to the report's datasource. That report expects those tables and I have defined table-relationships in the report which process and display the information correctly.
I'm not having as much luck with RDLC.
I can go into futher detail about how I'm creating the report, but let me just ask these general questions first:
1. Can I set a dataset containing multiple datatables equal to a property on an RDLC report and that RDLC report know how to treat and display the data?
2. Is there a better/smarter than this to get a field selection from my datasource (remember, this information is coming from a stored procedure so connecting directly to the database is not an option):
a. In code, populate dataset
b. In code, write dataset schema to xml (e.g. an xsd file)
c. In Visual Studio, add the XSD file to project
d. Use fields from XSD file to drag and drop fields on report
A fancy example would be nice too. I've googled like crazy the past couple of days and downloaded as many samples as I can find (including the ones on ftponline.com, gotreportviewer.com, "Tudor's WebLog", and several others). However, I have yet to find one that uses grouping and related datatables.
Thank you so much (if, for nothing else, reading this post )

Why Would Tables Pulled In From ODBC In Access Be Different Than Tables In SQL 2005 Tables?
Jan 24, 2008I'm new to my company, although not new to SQL 2005 and I found something interesting. I don't have an ERD yet, and so I was asking a co-worker what table some data was in, they told me a table that is NOT in SQL Server 2005's list of tables, views or synonyms.
I thought that was strange, and so I searched over and over again and still I couldn't find it. Then I did a select statement the table that Access thinks exists and SQL Server does not show and to my shock, the select statement pulled in data!
So how did this happen? How can I find the object in SSMS folder listing of tables/views or whatever and what am I overlooking?
Thanks,
Keith
SQL Newbie
Feb 6, 2006Hopefully this is the right place to post this, I am trying to learn ADO.Net programming using VWD Express with SQL Express... I tried to do the walk-through tutorial on ADO.Net through the asp.net tutorial. The walk-through asked you to download and install a script (check) then it said to open a command window with sql server running (check) and then to copy all of this special script code into to bind the database to the web page (not check). Everything pretty much went down hill after that part. I couldn't get the Update/Cancel/Delete buttons. After that dissapointing attempt at learning I decided to just try and make my own database. All was going pretty well until I try to add the UPDATE/DELETE fields after adding the WHERE clause. No go.
So, I don't know if I'm just totally flubbing this up or if this is a common problem. Do I need the two or three pages of custom script like the Microsoft example to make a database work?
Please help!!!

Jul 23, 2004I need to know how to write a sql statement for VB to Microsoft Access for the following criteria.
TblEmployees only Field to be concerned with is EmployeeID -Its PK
TblEmpAttendane has these fields:
EntryID - Pk
EmployeeID - Fk
Date- A text form date validated through vb to avoid hassle
Value-A single digit value that can be alpha OR numeric
To get the Date range for the current month I use variables to store the First and last day of the month(in a CUSTOM calendar control).
I have been trying to use this Sql statement(that wont work):
SqlString = "SELECT * FROM TblEmpAttendance WHERE Date BETWEEN '" & FirstDay & "' AND '" & LastDay & "'"
I need to:
1.)using the current EmployeeID (from TblEmployees)
2.) find the same EmployeeID in TblEmpAttendance
3.)Get the date range for the current month and year(valid days currnt mo.)
-these date are supplied by the variables "FirstDay" AND "LastDay" as seen in above SqlString
4.) Find the Values associated with the dates and EmployeeID

Aug 12, 2004I have a table with 10 records: 10, 9, 8, 7 ... and so on. I want to SELECT the top 3 records starting with the second record on the list (which in this case is 9.) So the result should be 9, 8, and 7. What would be the correct SQL statement for this?
I tried "SELECT TOP 3 * FROM tableXXX WHERE (FieldID<>(SELECT TOP 1 * FROM tableXXX ORDER BY FieldID DESC) ORDER BY FieldID DESC" but sure as heck it didn't work. Can anyone help?

Nov 16, 2007Hi
I have two problems. I am currently using SQL Server express and SQL Server Management Studio Express locally. i have a DotNetNuke website running on the web with IHostASP.Net
Story:
I noticed that my SQL Server 2005 database with IHostASP.net was 350MB. It was only 22 2 months ago and I have had about 100 users sign up. I then connected to my live database via SQL Server Management Studio Express and shrunk the database. No errors and the database was reduced to 24MB - Great I thought!
I went and checked the website and all was great for about an hour then the site went down with the following error:
Error The transaction log for database 'classcampers' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
Anyone know what to do.
Anyway, I have downloaded a .bak of my database as supplied by my host. However I cant figure out to restore this file back to my live database. What are the steps involved?
Do I create a new local database from the .bak and then somhow restore this back to my live one, or do i apply this .bak file strainght to my live database using SQLMSE. Any tutorials becuase I have been trying to apply this restore all day
Thansk for any advice in advance

Jun 3, 2008Hi guys,
Ive been learning SQL slowly and I need help for a projet I am doing.
I currently would like to compare identical files in a 2 seperate folder. Not only would I like to compare if the files are the same name, but when they are I would like to compare the file contents.
SO basically this is what I need to do:
-Compare file names in folder A with files in folder B
-If a match is found, compare file contents
-If file contents are same, do nothing. If file contents are different, move file to folder C.
Can anyone help me!! :O

Jun 6, 2006I finally decided to do our ASP application using VB, .NET and MSSQL.
My questions are simple, but I cannot find all the answers, so anything you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Please explain how licenses (CALS) work with regard to Windows Server and MSSQL. For example, suppose we have 200 clients all logged into our application, but only say 40 are currently active (meaning they are adding data, running reports, etc....), but they are not all clicking the "DO" button at the same time. So how many Windows server and/or MSSQL seats, licenses, CALS, cpu's etc.... (whatever they are called) will I need?
How many users do you think a "well designed" ASP application built using AJAX, ActiveX, VB, .NET and MSSQL can a single cpu reasonably support? This application will serve east coast to west coast with heavy traffic from say 7am to 9am and 2pm to 4pm in each time zone. At what point (or what should I look for) to say, you need more memory, more processors, more servers, etc......????
How does one protect (or build in) a method to deal with index corruptions, etc???? Does that occur in MSSQL? If so, generally, what are causes and fixes?
The application will serve many chapters. Many chapters will be solo (by themselves), but we also expect district wide, where multiple chapters (25 to 75) in one district will use the application. We can expect, during time frames mentioned above, that each chapter will have 200 to 400 transactions per am time and same per pm time.
has anyone had great success with IronSpeed?
Lastly, can anyone suggest some good windows web hosting companies?
Thank you.

Jun 24, 2006Hi i have 2 columns in the same table.....one column retrieves all registered students, the other column retrieved registered students but who have not completed a required survey.
The 2 sql statements are almost the same except that the 2nd one does another comparison at another table....(i.e. where student_id not in (select student_id from other_t).
I am trying to combine the 2 sql statements into a derived table where results will be displayed as follows:
registered students | students(incomplete surveys)
studA, studB, studC | studB
studC, studD, studE | studD, studE
is there any way to do it?

Hi I am new to SQL Server,
I have questions regarding theses files TRN, LDF, MDF and BAK.
I have a maintenance plan that backups the .TRN and .BAK everynight in a folder e:/mssqlsrv/MSSQL/Bakup.
When I look at the date modified in windows explorer they are exactly like I programmed it in the maintenance plan.
Now when I look in the folder e:/mssqlsrv/MSSQL/Data I see the .LDF and .MDF files and they are way out of date.
How do they get copied there? With the maintenance plan? What is the difference between the TRN and the LDF?
How does a restore work? I am so confused? Please explain to me?
Newbie: Am I Really Using Everywhere?
Jul 25, 2006I just went through Steve Lasker's slide show on Everywhere (which was very informative) and noticed that when he setup the connection to the Everywhere database it had a .sdf extension. However, when I look at my database using SQL Server Management Studio Express it shows me as having the standard .mdf and .ldf files and *no* sdf file. I thought for a moment that I might be using Express but when I look at the connection properties of my (or what I think is my Everywhere) database I see:
Product Name: Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine
Product Version: 8.0.818 SP3
Instance Name: MICROSOFTBCM
If I look at an Express database, I see connection properties of:
Product Name: Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services
Product Version: 9.0.2047 SP1
Instance Name: SQLEXPRESS
So it appears that I am not use Express but yet, no .sdf files. Can someone tell me about the different file extensions and which ones I might be using? I would assume with the product name of "Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine" I am using Everywhere - but maybe not. Please advise.
Thanks!

Mar 12, 2008Hello All.
I'm really new to SQL Server 2K5 and SSIS. I have a task that seems very simple, but being that I'm very rusty with visual studio and SQL, I'm having all sorts of problems.
Here's the scenario:
I have a text file that has 2 columns. AD LOCATION and UPC, I get the text file by combining two spreadsheets in Excel. I need to examine the rows of the flat file and output that data to multiple files. It's a parent child relationship and the output would simply be the children of the parent in it's own text file. It looks something like this:
TEXT FILE 1.TXT
ADLOCATION UPC
101 XXXXXXXXX1
101 XXXXXXXXX2
101 XXXXXXXXX3
102 XXXXXXXXX1
102 XXXXXXXXX2
103 XXXXXXXXX1
The output files should result in:
TEXT FILE 101.TXT
XXXXXXXXX1
XXXXXXXXX2
XXXXXXXXX3
TEXT FILE 102.TXT
XXXXXXXXX1
XXXXXXXXX2
TEXT FILE 103.TXT
XXXXXXXXX1
Again, I'm brand new to SSIS, have minimal DTS experience and really need to get this automated. Any help at all would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!
