How To Create The ER Diagram For SQL Server Database Objects
Hi,
I have to prepare an ER diagram for the objects in my SQL Server
database. I have used the option "DIAGRAMS" in EnterPrise Manager of
SQL Server 2000. It is creating the diagram for the selected tables
(but the diagram contains only the table which i have selected. It is
not displaying its depended tables). But i am not able to export it to
any of the flat file like MS WORD or paint. I want this diagram to be
uploaded to one Flat file and send to my customer for his reference.
Could anyone suggest me how to create the ER Diagram for the SQL 2000
database and export it to a flat file.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Not Able To Create A DB Diagram In SQL Server 2005. No Menu Option For Creating A DB Diagram??
I have created a database with several tables. I want to create a database diagram to show the relationshipbetween the tables. Below are the steps from the SQL Server 2005 documentation on how to create a database diagram. The problem is that when I right click on the Database Diagrams folder I am only given two options. They are:"Working with SQL Server diagrams" and "Refresh"There is no menu choice to create a new database diagram. Can anyone tell me what the problem here is? To create a new database diagramIn Object Explorer, right-click the Database Diagrams folder or any diagram in that folder. Choose New Database Diagram on the shortcut menu. The Add Table dialog box appears. Select the required tables in the Tables list and click Add. The tables are displayed graphically in the new database diagram.

Create A Relational Diagram From Non-relational Database
Hi all, I am trying to create a diagram for our database, during the creating, I create some of the relationships which were not there(basically our original database is not relational database, that's why I am doing it) So sometimes I have to chage data type in order to create a relationship for the coloumns in different tables. i.e. change char(16) to varchar(7) (I checked the field that make sure all the data in this field is <= 7 characters) But when I saved the diagram, there is an error message that state: Errors were encountered during the save process. Some of your database objects are not saved on your diagram. 'agent' table saved successfully 'VisitUSA' table - Unable to create relationship 'FK_VisitUSA_agent'. ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VisitUSA_agent'. The conflict occurred in database 'CMC', table 'agent', column 'AgentCode'. What does that mean? is it caused by some of the agentcode data in VisitUSA table which is not in agent table? Thanks!

Is It Possible To Create A Diagram?

In the toolbar the relationship icon is permanently greyed out and unusable and there isn€™t a node in object explorer. Can this be done and am I just missing something obvious?

2005 Copy Database Objects From One Server To Another
I just upgraded to SQLServer 2005 Standard. I do development in adatabase on one server. When a solution is completely tested, I moveit to the operational database on a different server. With SQLServer2000, I could just open the .adp file and do File->Get ExternalData->Import to move the objects. That does not work with 2005.What is the recommended method for moving objects from one database toanother? Obviously, the objects that changed will not be the sameevery time.Thanks!Jer

Not Able To Create DB Objects From Vb Script
Hi All, I have a SQL script which has creation of some table variables. When I run this query in Query Analyzer, I get proper results. But, when I use the same script to execute from VB Script, it is not running at all. I tried a simple select statement which works fine; but with the one I want to run, it fails to run.

Can't Create Or Edit Existing Objects From SQL SRV 7.0
Hello, I just upgraded our existing 6.5 installation with the new SQL server 7.0. I can't get any of the existing stored procedures which I imported from 6.5 into 7.0 to allow me to edit them. I do all of my design from Visual InterDev and the SQL Server 6.5 version would allow me to create and edit stored procedures. It would also allow me to create/design new tables. With SQL Server 7.0 I do not have an option to edit or create any of these items. I have created a new login, assigned it a password, given it admin rights/roles and I am still unable to remotely create these items. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any assistance Doug

How Can I Automatic Create All That Objects In Assembly In Simple Way ??
Hi I use SQL code snippet to attach the CLR assembly (dll) to the SQL Server Express CREATE ASSEMBLY [DatabaseAndImages] AUTHORIZATION [dbo] FROM 'C:CLR_File.dll' WITH PERMISSION_SET = SAFE That file content CRL Codes for 10 Stored Procedures & 3 UDT & 5 Functions & 6 Triggers As you can see it's content large amount of DB objects !! My Question is .. Is there any simple way can I use it to extract or automatic create all that Objects in the Database without use separate SQL Statement for each one ?? By Example , I will use this SQL statement to create the sp_AddImage that already located inside the CLR dll file CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_AddImage] @ImageID [uniqueidentifier], @ImageFileName [nvarchar](max), @Image [varbinary](max) WITH EXECUTE AS CALLER AS EXTERNAL NAME [DatabaseAndImages].[StoredProcedures].[sp_AddImage] But as you know .. I have many objects .. and I am in development phase and I will do change to that object many time and also may I will add much more €¦ I thing it's not good to write SQL Statement for each object and do changes every time when I change the object definition Is there any one line of SQL statement can I use it to automatically create and extract all the objects inside the assembly ?? Or is there any way to do that Issue by simple operation ?? And thanks with my best regarding Fraas

Database Diagram
I am working through a book about setting up a database, though i'm doing it slightly differently, using a sql server database on a remote server rather than the local sql server express database shipped with visual studio. everything has been going fine until i've reached a part where they want to add a database diagram to the existing database. they talk about right clicking the database diagram node, and selecting add, but for some reason there is no database diagram node, so i can't do it this way. the book also says using the data>add new>diagram from the menu, but when i do this i either have no diagram option (when i have no table opened) or else the diagram option is greyed out and unselectable (when i have a table opened). any ideas on how i can add a database diagram? dc

Create SSIS Package To Script Out DB Objects (1 File Per Object)
We are in the process of trying to automate our production releases (what a concept ;-) The database is SQL server 2005 All objects are being stored in VSS Using Nant and Cruise Control for the actual migrations. I have two directories - Create (for a brandnew database) and Change (db object changes) In my 'Change' script, I do the following - 1 - Take backup of database 2 - Migrate objects from 'change' directory to production 3 - Script out all objects of database and save in the 'Create' directory For the #3, I was hoping I could create an SSIS package that would script out all database objects and save them on the VSS server. I'm new to SSIS and want to verify it's something that can be done before I start down that path. If anyone has any examples or references, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

Currently, I do not have all my tables linked in a Database Diagram. I do everything at run time in my application code behind. What are the best practices? Which is easier or perhaps more secure?
