How can I transfer the schema of a database from one SQL Server app to
another? I've used MySQL in the past and all I had to do is create a
..sql file with the DDL statements for the database, then import that
file in the other db. Can I do the same kind of thing with SQL Server
2000? If so, how?
Also, is there a way to transfer the schema and data?
Thanks in advance for the help!!!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI had Sql Server 2005 installed on my machine, with that I am working on Visual Studio 2005. I just need to add an existing database into the app_data folder. The database is existing in the Sql server, it contains 180 tables so I cannot manually copy that tables in the app_data folder. for that is there any another way to copy all the tables into the database into the folder app_data with the data in the table.

Anybody has idea how to transfer database from SQL Server 7 to 6.5? I know how to migrating/upgrading database from 6.5 to 7.0, but from 7.0 to 6.5
seems not an easy one. DTS only transfer tables and data but not trigers,
SPs, etc. The script generated in 7 can not be applied to 6.5. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
i transferred the database on 6.5 SQL server to 7.0 , only the tables were transfered . none of the stored procedures or triggers were transfered.
how can one transfer these objects also.
What will be the best way to transfer 40 GB using DTS.
Thank you,

Transfering DB from one collation in SQL 2000 to a different collation in SQL 2000.
We need to transer our databases from codepage 850 to 1252.
We have succesfully transfered all objects and data EXCEPT stored procedures and triggers using the "Import/Export Data Wizard." We then scripted all the stored procedures and triggers from the cp850 database and installed them into the cp1252 DB. However for quite a few stored procedures and triggers we get the error "Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation." I have tried scripting the sp's with the option 'Only script 7.0 compatible features' on and off but get the same errors each time.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Hi,
I am new to the database concepts, maybe my questions are very basic.
I transfered data from one sql server to another thru object/database transfer. The transfer was successful, ie.,
all the data was present in the new server too. I am using an application with ASP as front end and SQL server 6.5 as back end.
So i am able to all new records, delete them, update them thru my ASP programs. But, i am not able to update the records
which where transfered from the old server. I hope some one of can help me, as i said earlier i am new to databases,
so give me a detailed solution.
Thanks,

there is applications which were written in FoxPro. Recently it has been redone in SQL.
How can I check that Whether their server designated to host the database is ready and fully up to spec on revs and patches,If not how and who can bring it up.
and How can I determine what else needs to be addressed to ensure a smooth transition and implement?
Define ongoing maintenance requirements.
I am trying to run a transfer database task in IS. The tasks fails saying that a defined role already exists in current database. This occurs if I try a destination overwrite to an existing database and even if the database is not currently allocated with destination overwrite = false.
Has anyone experienced these problems. I am just learning IS and have never experienced this type of problem with the old DTS version.
On the web site for MS SQL Server 05 Express the description at the top of the page says, "Transfer any database created in SQL Express to other editions of SQL Server 2005." http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/powerful/
How do you transfer a database from SQL Express to SQL Server 2005?
I am creating a data-driven web site using Visual Web Developer 05 Express, SQL Server 05 Express, and MS SQL Server Management Studio Express. My host uses SQL Server 2005, ASP.net 2.0, and FrontPage extensions.

I am attempting to utilize the 'Transfer Database Task' to copy a SQL 2000 database to 2005.
I would like to set up the task as a job to run nightly and update the 2005 database from 2000.
I have the DestinationOverwrite set to true, the Action set to Copy, the Method is DatabaseOnline.
I receive the following message...
ERROR: errorCode=-1073548784 description=Executing the query CREATE ROLE[RSExecRole] failed with the following error: "User, group, or role 'RSExecRole' already exists in the current database..."
If I set overwrite to true...why is this an issue? Suggestions? Comments?
Thank you
Does SQL Express support Database Transfer services? If not does it have something like that. I am trying to transfer data from my database to a web server but cannot seem to find the 2005 equivalent to SQL 2000 Database Transfer Services
View 3 Replies View RelatedOk, so thank you first off to Arnie for helping with my auto-increment problem. I'm not in the office now, but I can't wait to try out what he showed me to get this thing running.
My bigger problem that I'm hoping you guys can help me with though is this:
I have two servers, and two databases, lets call them dev, and staging. These are exactly the same, except in different physical locations, and changes are made on dev, and then the info is updated to staging. I am writing a C# script to automate the process of updating the information from the dev database on the dev server, to staging. I am profficient with C#, but this is the first time i've ever touched SQL.
So by using the INSERT and SELECT method, I can get the info over properly, I am assuming (as I said I haven't been in the office to try it out yet) but for each table on the database there are different sets of column names, so I can't do a simple
Loop{
SqlCommand del = new SqlCommand("Truncate table " +MyTable", connectionstring)
del.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO MyTable (MyColumn)
SELECT MyOtherColumn FROM MyOtherTable", connectionstring);
com.ExecuteNonQuery();
}While(...) and change the MyTable/MyOtherTable values for each loop.
Is there a quick and easy way of calling a list of columns for each table, so that I can change the table value, get the list of columns, and assign those as a variable? That way it can run through every table on the database, and no matter what the number or names of the columns in each table, it will grab all the necessary data and pass it over.
Thanks in advance,

Hi, can you not use this task in Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer Version 9.00.3042.00? It keeps giving me an error when I try to copy a DB using this task. Says I cannot use this task in this edition of SSIS. Is there another way to copy a db so that I can schedule it to run or is there a SP I need to download for this to work? I'm using SQL Server Express as well.
thanks,
