I have a database in my "App_Data" folder of my visual studio project. I can view it fine in Visual Studio's built-in tools for managing a database attached to a solution. However i recently started playing around with the SQL Server Management Studio Express program. When i attach my database to Management Studio, and try to run my program it crashes. I think it might be a permissions error?!? When i detatch it and reattach it in visual studio it runs fine again. Any suggestions? ThanksJason
How do i get the database that i am using in visual studio into my SQL server management studio? i need to create some scripts to create stored procedures on a live server.
I created an SQL database in Visual Studio 2005 Express Edition and would like to edit it in SQL Server Management Studio Express. The only databases listed in the Object Explorer of SQL Server MSE are the system databases (ones that are part of the SQL Server MSE). If I dig through the directories, I can locate my database under the Visual Studio directory, but I am unable to open it. I get an error message stating, "There is no editor available for [my database]... Make sure the application for the file type (.mdf) is installed." I'm sure that this is a ridiculously simple rookie mistake that I'm committing somehow, but I'm stumped. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
I am new to visual studio and I am still not sure of all its components and features.
I installed visual studio 2005 standard edition but cannot find SQL Server Management Studio?
I guess this must be because it is not included with Visual studio 2005 standard. Is it included with VS 2005 professional?
I want to add pictures of products to my shopping site using an SQL database and I’ve been told that SQL Server Management studio is required as it is a graphical tool.
How would I go about obtaining the SQL server management studio. There seems to be different versions of SQL server that it is confusing to know which one to purchase.
Will the SQL server 2005 version that comes with Visual studio standard be sufficient for me now right? I want to create a shopping site with hundreds, perhaps even thousands of products. I want to use an SQL server 2005 database. The database will include ‘dynamically generated’ product images if that is the correct terminology.
My goodness, it seems I still have so much to learn.
I created a new database in SQL Server 2000, using the command "CREATE DATABASE ContactManager ON PRIMARY(NAME = ContactManager,FILENAME ='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataContactManager.mdf',SIZE = 5MB,MAXSIZE = 20MB,FILEGROWTH = 5MB)LOG ON(NAME = ContactManager,FILENAME = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataContactManager.ldf',SIZE = 2MB,MAXSIZE = 10MB,FILEGROWTH = 2MB)Go" Databse was successfully created and I created two tables also in it. Now when i try to create a new connection in Visual Web Developer 2005, I get the error message : "Directory lookup for the file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataContactManager.mdf" failed with the operating system error 5 (Acess is denied.). Cannot attatch the file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataContactManager.mdf" as 'ContactManager'."
When one deploys a CLR DLL that contains [SqlFunction]'s, Visual Studio creates three extended properties on the SQL function that is created: these are,
AutoDeployed, SqlAssemblyFile, SqlAssemblyFileLine. What I haven't found anywhere on Help or MSDN online is what these extended properties mean. Could someone enlighten me? 1. What is a description of the above properties? 2. What is the benefit of using them (clearly the function works without using them). Does it help debugging? 3. Does the developer need to manually keep for instance the SqlAssemblyFileLine in sync with changes in the .NET code?
OK ... so like thousands of others I am a Visual Studio Newbie. I want to learn, I want an ASP website, I have worked hard with Visual Web Developer, bought the books read the articles .... then bang walked into SQL ... ouch ... that did hurt !!
Downloaded SQL Management Studio ... thought I had found the solution. Like all the Express products it looks great ......so what is the problem ? It is a simple problem and from looking at hundreds of other forum posts it seems I am not alone !!
Nobody has provided a simple guide to the steps you need to take to get MDF's out of Visual Web Developer onto a Server. (in my case 2005) - ideally written by an expert who can avoid the temptation of wondering into 'techguruspeak'.
I know nothing is straightforward - I accept that it may depend on your hosting setup - but when you are going round and round in circles just a few arrows showing the way out of the circle will stop you falling over (ouch ... not again !!) and start you on the pathway towards success.
So can someone please explain the process of transferring databases from VWD through SQL Management Studio. All I want to do is get the site up .... make progress ... get motivated ....then I will come back and start tweaking !!
So is there anyone out there who can write :A 'simple step by step guide for newbies' for moving VWD databases to SQL Server' in words us morals can understand !
No quesswork please ... let's have someone who can run SQL transfers from VWD while blindfolded ... at least that way we will have something in common !!
If you are that SQL 'superstar' who has used the Studio packages ... you have a unique opportunity to make 'thousands of people very happy' .... that can't happen every day !!
When I downloaded/started using Visual Web Developer I was under the impression that I needed to install SQL Server Management Studio Express in order to create/manage databases, and to provide the engine to access the data. Since then I have found tutorials and have successfully created/used databases solely from within Visual Web Developer. I'm assuming that Visual Web Developer includes a database engine, much like the webserver that is included. (This is an awesome thing). When I tried to upload my web application with database to my production server, the database would not work, it started working after I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the server. Is it my understanding that you need SQL Server Management Studio Express if you do not have Visual Web Developer Express installed in order to provide the data access engine? Also, I am unable to "attach" my Visual Web Developer Express created database to SQL Server Management Studio Express. Are there any posts that provide more information about this topic?
The only reason I'm asking is that I have extra whitespace on the end of my text fields, and I thought ANSI_PADDING was turned on. I do not see the option in Visual Web Developer Express, but have found it in SQL Server Management Studio Express.
The develpment team where I work is using Visual Studio 2005, SQL Server 2005 and Team Fundation Server. We want to somehow track changes of the stored procedures. We could create a Solution/Project in the SQL Server Management Studio, add all stored procedures to it and add that Solution/Project to the SourceSafe but nothing will stop developers from directly altering stored procedures.
Any ideas on how to prevent developers from making changes to the stored procedures directly?
I recently installed the Evaluation Edition of SQL Server 2005 x64 and it appears that MS Visual Studio 2005 is installed in stead of SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio. When I choose new project the only template available is "Blank Solution". How do I get all the templates (i.e. Analysis Server Project, Integration Services Project, Report Model Project, Report Server Wizard project, etc.)?
Or would it be better to uninstall MS Visual Studio 2005 and attempt to reinstall BIDS?
I have SSRS in Visual Studio. I created a query that works fine in SQL Server Management Studio, but when pasted into Visual Studio I get the error "An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near '('.
Here is the query. Can anyone help on why this isn't working? Thanks.

Hi,When I attempt to add the membership functionality to a database created within VWD Express, by using the aspnet_regsql.exe application (connecting to ./SQLEXPRESS using Windows authentication), the database I've created within VWD Express doesn't appear within the list of accessible databases. I have the same problem when attempting to access the same database within Management Studio Express.Does this mean that databases created from within VWD Express don't use the same storage mechanism or paradigm as those already available within Management Studio Express? Or perhaps I need to somehow register the database using Management Studio Express? As a side note, I'm not sure if the "File/Open File" menu option within Management Studio Express holds the answer to my problems, but rather bizarrely, it crashes Management Studio Express when I select it.Apologies for the rambling - in essence my question is "How can I make databases created within VWD Express appear within aspnet_regsql.exe and/or Management Studio Express?"Many thanks,Jon
In Microsoft.COM website do we have a comparision between Management Studio and Management Studio express in term of functions and features of the tool ? (Not SQL Server and SQL Server Express !)
When I try to create a database that will have fields for a date and a time the only data type option in visual studio is datetime. This stores data as dd/mm/yyyy-00.00.
how can I set it to store either a date dd/mm/yyy or a time 00.00 but not both.
I am working with VS version .0.50727 and .Net froamwork 2.0.50727.
Database under Options is set to SQLEXPRESS. In SQL Server configuration Manager, SQLEXPRESS is running and has all except VIA enabled.
When I try to add a new SQL data base to a project, I recieve the message 'Failed to generate a user instance of SL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will close.
Can someone help me with setup between VS and SQL serve?
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Standard. I have an .mdf database inside my Visual Studio "Server Explorer" under "Data Connections." How do I script out this database, including the stored procedures in it? In other words, I want to export a SQL script that will create this database. I'm very much a newbie when it comes to working with database management. I thought I created this .mdf inside my local install of SQL Server 2005 Express, but maybe I did it somehow inside Visual Studio in the Server Explorer. When I open up SQL Server Management Studio Express I don't see this database. I did locate the .mdf on my local C drive but I haven't been able to get Mgt Studio to open it.
I have a Visual Basic Windows Project and am connecting to an SQL database. I drop a few of the tables from a DataSet onto a Windows form, and I want to scroll through (using the bindingnavigatror) and subsequently save the data if I decide to make changes to it. However, when I click on the save button it doesn't do anything. From the code, the save button is supposed to run this:
I can't connect to a SQL Server 2000 database using Visual Studio 2008. When I try to create a SqlDataSource in Visual Studio the db server isn't in the dialog box. When I manually create a connection string it doesn't connect. When I go to the server, the db is running and apps that use it work fine. I can ping the server, and I can map a drive to it, but I just can't connect to the database. I tried using servername,port - didn't work. I open SQL Server 2005 Management Studio and try to connect. In the Connect to Server dialog box, when I go to the Server Name dropdown and browse for my database server on the network, the server is not in the list. I tried entering the server name (and password, etc) but it doesn't connect. A different SQL Server 2000 database server does show up there.
I need to find the name of the user that signed in to the web page. For this, I have a web page with a text box, the program should access a SQL database use, use the userID and return the name. My code (working) does the following:string mySqlQuery = ""; string strCnn = "";SqlDataReader myDataReader = null; mySqlQuery = "SELECT c_name FROM database WHERE c_user='demo'"; //connect to the databasestrCnn = "Data Source=" + connectionServer + "; Initial Catalog=" + connectionDatabase + "; user id=" + connectionUserID + "; password=" + connectionPassword + "; Integrated Security=false";cnn = new SqlConnection(strCnn);
try { cnn.Open();MessageBox.Show("Success Opening the Database"); } catch {MessageBox.Show("Problems with the database"); }SqlCommand sqlSelectCommand = new SqlCommand(mySqlQuery, cnn);
tbName.Text = "me"; cnn.Close();
This works, I just need to retrieve the value of c_name. Any help, thanks
Dear all,I am having trouble connecting my asp.net pages to a sql server database.I have the database running in visual studio and i can query it using the sql pane.My problem is that i don't know where to put the ADO.net query string or what it should look like.Does visual studio provide a wizard for doing this?Also is it possible to use CSS to change ASP.NET tags, i.e. asp:LabelAny help would be appreciated.Cheers
i use VSC 2013 (C#, .net4.5, ADO) and i installed SQL Express 2014 on a PC Under W8.1pro. I succeeded to create and access a database with my application. My database is created with a code like:
using ( var connection = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection( "Data Source=(local); Integrated Security=true;User Instance=True;" ) ) { connection.Open(); using ( var command = connection.CreateCommand() ) { command.CommandText = String.Format( "CREATE DATABASE {0} ON PRIMARY (NAME={0}, FILENAME='{1}')", dataBaseName, dbFileName ); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); command.CommandText = String.Format( "EXEC sp_detach_db '{0}', 'true'", dataBaseName ); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); } }
My problem is to manage this database with "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio"; i fact, i never succeeded to see my database in this tool. The .mdf file of my databae is located in a directory "C:UsersmyuseraccountDocumentsSQLServerExpDBs".
I tried to join my mdf file, but MSqlSMS refuse to display the content of all my user account directories.how to manage such DB in MSqlSMS?
All, I copy my reallistdb.mdf file to this MS SQL SERVER directory .Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData eallistdb.mdf. When I open my ms sql management studio, I don't see my realistdb.mdf under object exploer. Could anyone help? Thanks
i need a regex support in SQL 2005 server. i've downloaded SQL regex support project from http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/07/02/SQLRegex/default.aspx?loc=en. but in order to enable regex support i needed to open VS 2005. compile the project and deploy it to SQL server. now i can use Regexp-s in SQL queries. However this is not elegant way to deploy everytime SQL Database project via Visual Studio to every MS SQL server i want. my question is : how can i deploy without using Visual Studio?
I keep reading it's possible to add, amend ,etc. tables in visual studio but to do so I need access to the features that allow this. I can connect to the database but I haven't been able to use any of these database features since they are "blanked" out. Obviously, I can do all this at the server but ideally I would like to do it remotely.
