SQL 2000 pricing and licensing is quite confusing, and even more pain including the upgrading pricing from sql6.5/sql7.0.
I got very clear Windows2000 pricing and upgrading from one Microsoft web address. But just could not find a ONE Microsoft web sit explicitely describe the $ pricing for each of SQL2000 edition (per processor vs. CAL..., including upgrading from SQL 6.5, SQL 7.0). May be I missed that site?
Thanks

What license (and price) is needed for distribute application build in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition?
SQL Server Reporting Services is include in this license?
Our users, those who get the application build in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition need license?
I have to add the unit price on the order acknowledgement for products on our shelf.
Each product has different price breaks stored in a table called MaterialUnitCost.
I don't know how to pull the correct price based on the order quantity.
Let's say the customer orders 200 pieces,
I sell 1 pcs @ $20
50 pcs @$15
200 pcs @$10.
My order acknowledgement should pull a unit price of $10, but it pulls $20 instead, because in my select statement I have
select materialunitcost.unitcost.
I thought I should do a loop or use the row_number function, but I am new to SQL, and I never used any of these two.
Hello!
Why SQL Server 2000 Enterprice Edition price is so much higher than Standard Edition. I saw the SQL Server 2000 Editions Comparison and i did't find any good reasons.
Can you help me????
Thanks

I am developing basket and need a simple way to get price x quantity + total price.
I get back a recordset which has a varying number of items, each item has a price and quantity. Using
SELECT ((productprice)*(productquantity)) AS subtotal, product name, productid
I don't know how to add all subtotals to get a total, I have tried putting in SUM but but cant get it to work.
Any help would be well appreciated.
Hi,
I have to audit a number of servers and tally with source installation CDs. How can I tell which CD license key has been used on a server , i.e. where (I assume in registry) is the license key held ??
Many thanks.
We have a win2003 server box that is using MS-SQL 2000. We have a 20user license on this server at the present time. We have a need toallow up to 5 simultaneous additional users access to a subset of thisdata from our IIS server. How does this affect my current SQL ServerLicense? We can restrict access via connection pooling, etc. Can weuse a 30 user license or must we go to a CPU license? Does anyoneknow where to find Microsoft licensing information on this?

Hi,
We have a product which uses SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition with Per Seat licensing option. Going forward with a new release of the product, we intend to upgrade to SQL Server 2005. Till now our product was being used in non web based scenarios so the Per Seat licensing option helped our case. In the upcoming release which would use SQL Server 2005 we need to break off from the non web based scenario as the product would use SQL Server over internet.
So isn't it correct to go for the Processor based licensing instead of the Per seat licensing ?
If so then what would be the ideal manner to upgrade the license from Per Seat (in SQL Server 2000) license type to Processor based (in SQL Server 2005) license type ?
I have heard of Software Assurance providing assistance in version upgrades. Would it help in case I need to upgrade from one license type to another ? Or is it applicable only in case of upgrade where the license type is fixed ?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Arun
Hi,
I have downloaed microsoft's Best Practice Analyser for SQL Server 2000. I would like to recomend this tool in our organisation. Before that i want to confirm that is there any restrictions to use this tool or it is an free ware tool.
If my client has a SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition license, can they use that license for a SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition installation?

Hello all, I have a puzzle that needs solving please. I have a Stored Procedure and it works fine and produces what I want to see. I have two servers replicating and when the stored procedure is ran on the other server, it produces nothing at all but the data is verified the same. So I go to query analyzer and copy the following sql statement from the stored procedures and put in the variables it asks for and I get nothing on either server. Here is the statement:

Can anyone solve this puzzle with SQL only - no temp tables and no cursors
(sent to me by a friend)?
I would have done it with a cursor on SQL Server but the rules stipulate not using a cursor. Can this be done with just SQL?
You have a table:
First Name Last Name
John Doe
Jeff Smith
etc..
Is it possible to write a query in SQL which assigns serial numbers 1; 2; 3; to the rows(in any sequence)? So the output should look like this:
Number First Name Last Name
1 John Doe
2 Jeff Smith
etc..
Note that your query must work with any data for the input table. You cannot rely on the fact that there are only two rows. Number cannot be a IDENTITY column.
Thanks!

I managed to get things broken and I can't solve it:
Scenario:
SQL Server
--->Databases
--->TestDB
---> Users
------> dbo mapped to user1 (user1 = SQL Server user)
------> user1(database user) mapped to nothing (no SQL user)
---->Security
-------> Logins
-------> user1
Problem: I don't want SQL Server user 'user1' to be dbo but I can't remove dbo rights because it owns objects nor can I drop database user 'user1' or delete SQL Server user 'user1' because it's mapped to dbo.
I'm running in circles..
First and last time I use the auto_fix option to fix orphaned users.
At this point, the only solution to me is dropping the database.
Anyone with a better idea?
Thank you!

I've been running my simulations against our SQL Server 2005 database all day today and have been noticing a lot of deadlocking. Almost every transaction was deadlocking and retrying.
About an hour ago I started SQL Profiler and enabled trace flags using DBCC TRACEON(3605, 1204). However, even though Performance Monitor was indicating high Deadlocks/sec ratio I could not find any evidence of them in SQL Profiler or in SQL Server error log. I restarted my simulations several times, but nothing changed.
So, then a miracle happened and the last time I started my simulations all deadlocks disappeared. I did not change any queries and I am puzzled as to what could have happened. The only things I did were starting SQL Profiler and executing DBCC TRACEON commands.
Since queries and transactions did not change, could it be that they started executing (and hence releasing locks) faster because of lower network traffic at the end of the day or because the transaction log was written to disk?
Could it be anything that SQL Server 2005 does to optimize its own performance?
What else could have caused such a drastic change?
Thanks.

Hi,
Can I find out the user who has executed the job?
The result of query Q1) gives this information in the message column of the output.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello -I have three feeds from sources around the world, each coming in at aseparate time.These feeds move into a large table (3GB) that is queried by managers.The feeds are loaded sequentially, and then the previous day's feedrows are deleted from the table (this is done so that the user'sapplication is never without data).The issue is that the import takes a lot of time, as do the deletes.These is hurting performance significantly. I attempted to fix theproblem by creating separate tables for each feed. I then created aview with the original table's name and used UNION ALL's. My intentionwas that as each feed came in, I'd alter the view with the new table'sname, and then truncate the older table. This met both goals ofconcurrency and import/delete speed.Unfortunately, this view seems to ignore the indexes on the underlyingtables, which devastates performance. I can't index the view, sincealtering it makes the index less useful.I'm looking for a different strategy for loading and deleting thedata, all without disruption to the applications. I'd appreciate anysuggestions....
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello folks,
I have probably a dumb newbie question but I can't find the answer anywhere.
On my Control Flow design pane I have two objects: a SQL task object and a Data flow task object. The first 'points' to the second. From my digging I believed that by indicating with the arrow from 1 to 2 that 1 would execute to finish before 2 was started.
My SQL taks is to truncate a table to receive the new data coming from the data flow task object. Instead 2 executes first and then 1. You can imagine producing an empty table was not my goal for this package.
Can anybody give me a clue?
Thanks....

Hello SQL Gurus,
I want to dynamically add a column to a select statement who must contain the line number.
Example :
Some table has 3 columns (id,field1,field2)
SELECT top 3 *,[lineNumber] as lineOrder FROM someTable
must produce
id | field1 | field 2 | lineOrder
-----------------------------------
1 abc def 1
23 def ghi 2
7 ghi jkl 3
and so on... Possible ?
I have a view based on few tables okay
I have a query that gives me document details of various revisions
Now i also get the latest rev of those if i use a MAX() in my Query
Now a case where i have say
Docu Numb - Revi - Received Date
Document1 - rev0 - 10/2004
Document1 - rev1 - 11/2004
Document1 - rev2 - 12/2004
Document1 - rev3 - 01/2005
Document1 - rev4 - 02/2005
Document1 - rev5 - 03/2005
Document1 - rev6 - 04/2005
Document1 - rev7 - 05/2005
If i query for latest it gives Document1 - rev7
And if i filter for a month of 12/2004
If i query for latest it should give Document1 - rev2
Now i need to get a filter with latest as rev2,
plus i also need as a indication of actual latest as rev 7
using a query
How do i do that ...
Coz when i use filter for a month and Max then it
does not consider rev7 for that filter and skip the record
and if i try to filter only as per month .. i get a wrong info
as latest rev2 which is not a true info as per database records.
May i possibly get both ... filtered info as per specific month and
also a rev info as what is the latest for a spec document.
Just i need to know is that possible .. in SQl using a query
Any more info needed please mail me on

If I log into the SQL server with my credentials and connect to SSIS through SQL Management Studio, I'm able to execute my test SSIS package successfully.
If I go to my machine and try to connect to SSIS "Integration Services..." I get "Access Denied" message.
If I execute the same package via DTEXECUI, the package errors out also.
My account is member of the group "Security_IT_Data", this group has sysadmin privileges on the SQL Server level.
The account used to run the SSIS Service is part of the Local Admin group on the box and also a sysadmin on the SQL Server.
What am I missing?
I have the following data (very simplified version)TransactionId Agent_Code------------- ----------191462 95328C205427 000024C205427 75547CAgent Code 75547C is a corporate agent. The others are not. I have alist of corporate codes so I can query against it, BUT what I want todo is...Return a unique TransactionId and max of the AgentCode, but if theAgent is a corporate agent, I need to return max of the corporate agentcodes. We can have multiple agents against the transaction andsometimes have a mix of corporate and none corporate agents. What weneed to do is see the corporate adviser if there is one. I only want 1record per TransactionId.We derive more data (sales hierarchy) from this, so are not interestedin anything other than the maximum, but need to know if it wascorporate which therefore gives me a different hierarchy later.Ideally I want to do this in a view and not use an SP. I can then usethis in my main view. If I have to resort to an SP, then so be it, butI would appreciate any helpful comments (or even better, the answer)ThanksRyan

Guys,
We have MSSQL 2000 Server instance installed and working well on Windows 2003 Server machine [IBM X series-366] with 16GB RAM, 3.67GHZ cpu power, and 400GB hard disk space.
We further created an identical server instance on a new machine. More specifically, on Windows 2003 Server machine [Intel (R) Xeon (TM)] with 16GB RAM, 3.67GHZ cpu power, and 400GB hard disk space, we installed MSSQL 2000 Server and copied over all the dbs, applications ...
We were expecting same or similar performance (since processor speed, ram, hd, server and database configurations are all the same, with same indexes on same tables. However, for some reason, there is a noticeable difference in performance.
More specifically, I ran Profiler for 30 minutes on both servers simultaneously [same trace parameters]. The trace file of the new server is 3 times as large as that of the old one (i.e. It looks like more items are being processed). However, the average duration of the executed stored procedures is much longer on the new server than that of the old server.
Moreover, when I run same queries on 2 servers. The query on the new server always takes longer than that on the old server. And for tables where we don't have indexes, it takes much longer.
Following advice here(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/274750/), we configured our new server (just as was our old one configured) to use 15GB of RAM. I further compared the configurations of 2 servers by executing sp_configure (with advance options). The only difference I saw was that "remote proc trans" is set to off on the new server and on on the old server. I don't think it could affect this issue though.
Furthermore, the new server appears to have many more locks, as compared to the old server. Could it be because it is processing more items?
I cannot figure what is causing the queries to be slower on the new server.
Can anyone suggest anything?
Thanks a lot
