Hi,
How is it possible to link the stored procedures in sql server to Source Safe?
The idea is that if anyone goes to sql server and wants to change a stored procedure, he has to check out/in, etc... Just like the way it is done is Visual studio with Source safe.
Thanks
I've ready many of the posts on this and other newsgroups in whichpeople describe working practices for source control of databasescripts. We are looking to implement something similar in my currentworkplace.We have agreed that developers should not modify objects such as viewsor stored procedures directly, they should check the script out of VSSfirst, modify it, run it, and then check it back in.The problem we are having is finding a quick, easy way to run all thescripts in VSS in the right order, to create a new database. If wedon't run them in the right order the sysdepends table will beincorrect.If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.Regards,Ross NeilsonSoftware DeveloperInteractive Products Ltd.
HiIs it possible to use Visual Source Safe with SQL Server inorder to keep track of all modifications done to stored procedures?What are the pros and cons ?Thanks, Eugene
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?
Recently, my company's deveolpment machine crashed. We had to format the harddrive which meant we lost some of our databases. We managed to restore the databases, but we do not know in what state, i.e. which stored procedures were written between the restore point and the point the machine crashed. Tow questions related to this: 1. I was wondering if there is any product that is similar to soursesafe but appied to databases, so that this problem will not happen again. Does Enterprise manager do something like this? 2. I was also wondering if there was anyway to undo an sql command. e.g. my colleague recently ran a command to update a database, but forgot to write the where clause!! That data was recovered aswell, but it would be nice to have some sort of undo button. Thanks in advance. Jagdip
When adding a SSIS DTSX package solution to Sourcesafe the SSIS Package Configuration file (.DTSConfig) is not included. We are using sourcesafe version 6.0d and Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Developers.
Hi All... Well, another old c++ programmer has found the Lord - I've just written my first stored procedure. And yes, as I've always heard, it's quite cool...
The thing I've never really cared for though is that they sit way out there in the database, far away from all the "other" code. I'm presently involved in an asp.net project and we use SourceSafe. I've seen some mention of VSS with SQL Server on this site and am quite pleased to see it! But for the sake of an old c++ programmer, what are the basics about getting things like stored procedures (and even the database schema for that matter) into sourcesafe? That is what's the easiest way to do it? ; )
For what it's worth, we're using .Net 2.0, Visual Studio 2005, SQL 2005 and VSS 6.0. Thanks for the tips! -- Curt
I've figured out how to store new SSIS projects in SourceSafe, but is there a way to configure an agent job to execute a package from SourceSafe, or do I have to maintain a copy outside? (Which doesn't seem to make sense...)
In SQL Express SP2, when I select Tools > Options, there is a place where I am supposed to be able to specify the source control plug-in. I have SourceSafe 2005 installed on this machine, so I see these choices in the drop-down:
None
Microsoft Visual SourceSafe
Microsoft Visual SourceSafe (Internet)
The problem is that whenever I select one of the SourceSafe options, it goes back to "None".
I'm not even sure how the source control intergration works, but I figured I have to select the plug-in before doing anything else.
How can I select the SourceSafe plug-in under SQL Express SP2?
Imagine opening SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), drilling into adatabase, and seeing all objects with little lock symbols in front ofthem. That would be true SS integration.Maybe next version?I know about creating a project in SSMS and managing connections,queries, and misc there, but come on, that seems a far cry from what Ilong for.I searched for 3rd party tools and found SQLSourceSafe and Apex SQLTools. Does anyone have experience with those?-Tom.
I get errors when I check out an SSIS package from source control (both Source Safe and TFS) relating to the connection objects where I was not the original developer who checked it in. Is there a solution to this other than altering the connection loginpassword for every connection object in the package before deploying?
I've added an XML package configuration file to my SSIS package and it appears to be working fine.
The XML file is located in the same folder as the solution file.
I've recently added the entire solution to Visual Sourcesafe 2005, and I achieved this by doing the following:
1. Right-clicked on the Project name in the solution explorer and selected "Add to source Control". 2. When prompted, provided my Sourcesafe login credentials and clicked "OK" 3. Accepted the default VSS project name and clicked "OK" 4. Clicked "Yes" to allow VSS to create a new project
Problem: The XML configuration file hasn't be added to sourcesafe along with rest of the solution.
I'm able to add the file manually myself, but this doesn't seem right to me. Am I missing something? Should the config file show as part of the Solution in Visual Studio 2005?
I've downloaded and installed both of these (VWD installs both) and have been trying to run through the walkthrough of setting up a web application which supports membership. However, no matter what I do I invariably get errors like the following:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1) I'm concerned why VWD and VSQL express versions don't run correctly out of the box (so to speak). I'm not an expert on configuring these services -- but that's the point of offering these tools to hobbyists: So we can learn about how to make some of these great applications using MS tools. My configuration::
Windows XP SP2 -- clean machine as of about a month ago, never had any dev tools, web servers, or the like on it.
IIS is installed and the service says its running
VSQL and VWD express versions installed (no errors on installation)
SQL server service indicates it is running
.Net 2.0 framework installed (no errors on installation)
Note: I've tried installing on two separate machines. Obviously I'm missing something fundamental.
Would someone please help me go through the million things I [apparently] need to do to configure all these tools so I can get on to actually coding up my first web application? If this is documented somewhere, all I can say is I tried to find it but it certainly wasn't obvious.
I have already created package which loads a text file to database using the dts wizard in Enterprise Manager.How do I execute that package using visual basic?Please provide the Code!!!Thanks
I need help. 160821A network error was encountered while sending results to the front end. Check the SQL Server errorlog for more information. I need help. Our SQL Server is crashing. The Database is still recovering. I can not kill any Process when the Server crashed. I shoot down and restarted the server. Nothing to do. I can not access to the database. It is recovering. How long? I do not know. What can be the reason of the recovering? Nor the event log of Windows NT or the log files of the SQL SERVER can help me.
Here is a part of the log file

This post refers to a question I have relating to the add in tool for VWD, the reporting add in tool. I have posted this question previousley on a forum, but was told it was better to add it in here too.
In VWD, I know I can go into the background of a page, and fiddle with the code in VBA. I find this very useful, and considering I have only been doing this for 6 months, I really enjoy it too! I recently downloaded the Reporting Add In for VWD, and I thought it was a very useful tool, especially for the kind of MI work that I am requested to do. However, I can not find anyway to alter the code like I can in a normal .aspx page. The main problem I am having is I have got a table, but depending on whether a a particular cell in one coloumn has 0, - or + number, I want to be able to change the background colour of that individual cell. Devilishly easy to do with a text box or label in VB on a normal .aspx page, but I can't see how to do it when I am designing a report in the Reporting Add on tool for VWD. Can anyone help or does anyone have any suggestions?
Firstly, apologies if this topic is out of the scope of this board, but I am stumped.
Basically, we have an old Visual Basic 6.0 application which currently accesses an Access database, but which we would like to upgrade to an SQL compact edition database. I have created the database, but have so far turned up next to no details reagarding how to connect to the damn thing in VB6.
Can anyone help? Or at least point me in the right direction?
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.
Hi, Can I use Sql Express Edition with Visual Web Developer at the same time? I tried but I always get a permission error. Also, when I try to attach a database (that I created in Visual Web Developer) to the SQL Express i cant find the .mdf file, I don't know why? Is there is a way where I can specify a folder where I can keep the mdf and allow both applications to access it?
Hi all, Have tried running a dts package but Im unable to add the reference Microsoft.Sql.managedDts. Is there any other way that i can do tat from Visual studio code behind page? I need to let the user to trigger the package from the web application. Thks in advance.
Hey, Im trying to make a website that I can enter information on the website and have it transfered to the database the problem is the website and database are on two different computers , how do I copy the data base onto the other computer and have it will be ready to take information from the website and store it in the database?
lo all, when i try and connect web developer to a sql file i get "An error occurred while establishing a connection to the server.When connecting to sql server 2005,this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL server does not allow remote connections(provider:Named Pipes Provider,error : 40-Could not open a connection to SQL server)" thx for any help Charlie
HELP!!! I've looked at a few, but none of them support insert and update. I hate to say it, but the Access inteface is better, but uses a different SQL than SQL Server. :(
I want to use Visual Basic to create DTS connection. In the example below a connection is created using an ODBC string. However, I would like to make the Connection's DataSource be an OLE-DB provider instead of ODBC. However, I cannot find any information on the syntax for using an OLE-DB provider as the DataSource.
Your help is appreciated.

Today was my first day to use DTS. I tried to transfer a Visual FoxPro Database to my SQL Server. I noticed that I am getting errors on the data that contains date fields. So, for testing purposes I transformed the Visual FoxPro fields that contained datefields into char fields. And this works, but obviously I cannot hunt around in a huge database looking for datefields in tables and change them manually. Plus, by changing to char fields I noticed that those fields that are empty are transformed as 1899-12-30. :p
Anyone have any code i can use to call a DTS package from Visual Basic. I would like to have an outlook macro that will run a dts package when i receive an email. All i need is the code that will call a dts package for a sql server that is not local to the box. I've tried this code but i get an error run_tmie error '-2147217900 (80040e14)' automation error
