Sql Database Names?
Feb 2, 2006
just starting with sql server, thru the sql express edition, before i get to far wondering if it is ok to use the same database names, specifically the ASPNetDB.mdf in different web applications, or will this cause problems down the line,
ie will have different web site applications running on IIS and want to use the aspnet_regsl wizard,
also wondering if this has any implicaitons when publishing web application to web servers, are any of the local sql express server settings passed on to the web host provider, read about machine.config and if i understand i should put all the settings in the web.config file via the VS20005 ide.
also will it cause any problem inside the sql express magement console,

Hey all,
Hope I can get some help here.
Have a view that has to reference a table in another database on the same server. This isn't the problem. I am just using Databasename..tablename in the from statement. Get the results required in testing.
The problem is that in production the table name has a space character. i.e. 'accounting info' would be the table name. I have not been able to figure out the proper syntax to capture this properly to reference in the from statement.
I have tried enclosing the name in ' ', " ", [], (), {} and just about every combination I can come up with.
Any help in this would be great, and changing the databse name isn't an option at this time.
Thanx,
Chris

I am designing a package to export staging tables into a flat file.The names of the tables will be: TableAStaging_YYYYMM and TableBStaging_YYYYMM. As you can see the names of the tables will be changing each month.
The flat files will have similar naming: C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM and C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM.I want to run the package as an sql job in two steps, one for each table.I need to dynamically pass the table names and file names (together with the path) to the IS package.

As part if a recent requirement I have to export Chinese/Singaporean names in a CSV file. The data in the tables is a NVARCHAR(256).
I am using a FlatFile Connection manager where all the present columns from the table are exported as NVARCHARs. My understanding was that the Chinese/Singaporean names would blend seamlessly with NVARCHARs in place. But, they get garbled when pushed to the CSV.
Here is the connection manager setup
There are a lot of suggestions of fixing this by copying/pasting to a notepad file and changing the formatting... But I cant do that since the file is generated using a schedules SSIS package. How can I tweak the process to fix the issue?

Hello,
I have ran into a problem when i'm getting table names in c#.
I have tried the sql command:
select name from sysobjects where type='U' order by name
So it returns the names without a problem. But when I try to access to some tables using their names (to retrieve the columns) I sometimes get the error "Invalid object name" following by the name of the table.
So I realized the if the table was not under dbo user then i would get this error.
for example: "select name from ContactCreditCard"
gives me error because in database management tool it is shown like this: Sales.ContactCreditCard
How can i fix this problem? How to get that prefix of the tables?
Thank you,

When connecting to an SQL Server (v7 in this case) the log file shows that old and deleted databases are still being opened as part of the process. Further, these db names are now reserved and cannot be reused, even thought I've deleted them.
Is there any way I can purge all traces of these deleted db names?
You might have guessed, I'm a newbie, which is why there are a few dozen deleted DBs.
Thanks for any help

We have recently copied a database from one machine to another. On the old machine, when we access the tables we do not need to use the username.tablename convention to query them. On the new box we do.
For example, to query a table called Page we would nee to do this on the new box.
SELECT *
FROM webdev.page
unfortunately all the code is written, without the username prefix. Is there a way to not use the username prefix?
Thank you for your help...sorry for the newbie type question.

Hi SQL server experts,
I'm trying to restore from a backup file.
I need to restore the datafile and logfile to different names.
I modified the options page, changed the 'Restored As' file name.
I clicked on the General page and Clicked on the Options page again, the old values came back.
How do I handle this?
Thanks in advance.
Pingx

I'm currently implementing a German ERP system and I'm having aterrible time writing reports/SQL statements. The database is MS SQLServer 2000. I want to set permanant aliases for the columns that Ican use in SQL statements. Is this even possible? All of the researchI've done implies that you can only alias column names in the output ofa SQL statement.

In the past, we had table names such as:
PurchaseOrders
SalesOrders
Now with SQL 2005, you can use schema namespaces, so it could become:
Purchasing.Orders
Sales.Orders
So essentially you can use exactly the SAME table names, in different schemas.
So... would you recommend to change to the last model, or just stay with the old way?
What is best practice?
One of the reasons why I ask this question is that I looked at the AdventureWorks sample database included with SQL Server 2005, and Microsoft is using:
Sales.SalesOrderDetail
Purchasing.PurchaseOrderDetail
etc...
Why not:
Sales.OrderDetail
Purchasing.OrderDetail
etc...
????????

I'm not a full-time DBA, so excuse my style of expressing my question.I have a database which has 2 tables in SQL 2005. Both these tables have similar column names, EXCEPT for new extra columns in FY2007_DATA. I can visually see the difference in columns in Database Diagrams. My goal is to :- I want to compare FY2007 tbl column names to FY2006 column names and display only those columns as results that do not match.Tbl 1 :- FY2006_DATA Tbl 2:-
FY2007_DATA
With online reading and help I have managed to get this script to do exactly opposite of what i want. Below is the query
/* This query compares the column names from two tables and displays the ones that have an exact match. It does not care for case-sensitiveness */
Select a.Table_Name, a.Column_Name, (b.Table_Name), (b.column_name)
From [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS a
Join [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS b on a.Column_Name = b.Column_Name
Where a.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2006_DATA'
And b.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA'
AND a.Column_Name IN
(Select Column_Name = LEFT(c.column_name, 20) FROM
[H1B_2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS c WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA' )
When I change "AND a.Column_Name IN.." to "AND a.Column_Name NOT IN.." so that the results will (should) display the extra columns in FY2007, in fact I do not see any results, but query executes perfect.
How can I achieve my goal.?
Thank you

I wihsh to discuss whether to use fully qualified names:[database].[schema].objectof objects to operate (create, query..) on is good or not?If someone change order of sql code blocks in my script - this may causelose of it's context (like: use master / use <mydb>..). I wish to have mysript independed on changes like this and always produce correct result.Does using full name make use of 'use <db>' statement unnecessary?

In our application we are copying data between 2 sqlserver databases using linked server. Say, sqlserver1 is source and sqlserver2 is destination, then, our application will be on sqlserver2 box and will copy data from sqlserver1 to sqlserver2.
User also need to choose from which database of sqlserver1, the data need to be copied. This data is our application data.. Nothing related to sqlserver database.
We are using the following query, to get the database names of the source sqlserver..
SELECT * FROM <linked server to dest db>.master.sys.databases
My questions is : is this query generic enough that works on all sqlserver versions?
Is the master database name of sqlserver configurable or its alwasys fixed as "master"?

I'm going to be setting up DB mirroring between two SQL Server 2005 boxes. Since these are on two different servers, can the instance names be the same? Is there any reason NOT to do so if the mirror server is going to be used exclusively for DB mirroring?
For example: if the my primary DB is located on SERVER1INSTANCE1, can the mirror be SERVER2INSTANCE1 or do the instance names have to be different even though they're on different boxes.
Thanks!

The database has approx. 2500 temporary tables. The temp tables match a pattern such as APTMP... I tried deleting the tables in SSMS with the statement, Delete from Information_Schema.tables where substring(table_name,1,5) = 'APTMP' This returns the error message"Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed".
What is the correct way to delete a group of tables whose name match a pattern from within SSMS?

I'm using SQL Server 2012 and was attempting to move the msdb, model, and tempdb databases to a new location and accidentally gave their log files an mdf extension instead of ldf when providing the new pathfilename. After the server wouldn't start I checked my script and noticed my error. I have good backups of my system databases, so I was hoping to start the MSSQLSERVER service in single-user mode (using the -m startup parameter) and then just restore master using sqlcmd.
Unfortunately the service was starting but I couldn't connect via sqlcmd using any of the three protocols (it said the server was not found or not accessible each time). I also tried using the dedicated Admin connection but I got the same error. Then I went into the Templates folder and copied the master, msdb, model, and tempdb templates into the DATA folder and tried to restart SQL Server but still no luck (now the MSSQLSERVER service won't start at all). Is there an easy way to fix this mess without having to reinstall from the setup application?
