Access Data Projects Uniqueidentifier Problem
Jul 23, 2005
Hi,
I am designing a SQL server backend, MS Access (ADP) frontend
application and I came across an interesting problem.
Lets say I have a table T with the following fields(columns)
[a] (int Not Null, Primary key, Identity auto increment)
[b] (uniqueidentifier, Allow Nulls)
[c] (text)
When I open the table in datasheet view using Access and type a value
in [c], [a] and [b] get populated automatically. [a] getting filled
with incremental integers is understandable. But, I have not set the
ISRowGUID or a default value for [b] and still it gets popullated with
a random GUID. If I use SQL Server enterprise manager to enter data
into the table T, [b] does not get filled and stays Null. I forgot to
mention that there are no relationships between the tables yet.
Is it MS access that is responsible or is it me? In any case can
something be dont to prevent this? Also should there be something else
in relation to this that I have to look for in the future.
My best

Hi,I wanted to know if Access Data Projects is a good option to choose fora SQL Server Database Frontend. The other option is C#.The database will be accessed by multiple users (around 100 users) on aLAN. ADP looks viable coz the users are used to working on a MS accessdatabase.Please post your replies with reasons as to why you think your choiceof f-end is betterCheers!

I don't know if there is a fundamental problem with what I am trying to do, or am I just having problems setting it up correctly:
I have a SQL server multi-user database. I want my users to connect to this databsase via Access 2000 Data Project. No problem there. The database consists of one main table and several views (based on the office branch that the user works from). For example there is a Chicago view, an Atlanta view, etc. that all extract different records from the same underlying table. I need my users to have FULL ACCESS (select, update, delete) to their respective VIEWS, but they cannot have access to the underlying table. I've tried several configurations and I'm beginning to think that this may not be possible... is that the case?
If it is not possible to grant access to views but not the underlying table, then what are my other options? The objective is to have a multi-user table that each user "owns a piece of" without being able to see the tables or records belonging to their peers. Do I need to setup a table for every office, and somehow link those tables into one main table? How would I avoid duplicate records being entered into the separate tables? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as this problem has had me stumped for weeks.

We use SQL Server 2000 on the back-end of our directory web site and ASP on the front end which works fine. However, for my own uses (since I don't create the asp and have to pay a programmer), would it be better to set up an Access 2003 project for my own data entry forms, standard reports and quick searching?
What would be the negatives of this approach. Remember, this is just for me.
Thanks in advance,
Kelly

Hi All,
Just installed a new version of SQL2005 on a brand new Application Server.
However, when i fired up Access 2003, it gives me some chaos about how Access isn't compatible with SQL2005. Fantastic lack of backward compatibility straight out the box.
Ok, so I do as it says and download all the updates.
Try again... Still won't allow me.
Wen't to Control Panel > Data Sources and confirmed the Native Client is in there. Added a System DSN for the new Server.
Tried Access again, still not working?? What the...
Why can't I create a new project in Access 2003, and edit it from my desktop instead of sitting on the server for every table modification? I hate designing tables on the SQL studio.
Any clues or help would be great. I'm just disappointed at the moment, on how this is holding up my database projects.
Thanks,
Chris.

We receive data files from different external customers, and these files have identical layouts.
I'm planning to set up a package for each customer. Each package will contain a flat file source -> OLEDB transformation dataflow, (followed by other customer-specific data flows).
What I'd like to do is just create this dataflow once, parameterising the flat file and table names. Is it possible to include this dataflow in each customer package so that if the flat file layout changes, I can just modify the connection managers in the one place, and then recompile each package to pick up the changes?
Any advice appreciated.

I'm using the uniqueidentifier data type to generate a unique key for a table. Is there a way to change the type of unique key that's generated? I'd like it to start at 200,000 and increment as integers by 1.

Hi all:
I've have a data flow task where I'm importing data into a SQL Server table. All of the fields are mapped, and the source table does not have the uniqueidentifier column (and the destination table will have a uniqueidentifier column). How do I generate a uniqueidentifier for that column without specifiing a default value in the database design? Or is that the only way to do this?
Thanks...

I'm trying to re-write my database to de-couple the interface (MS Access) from the SQL Backend. As a result, I'm going to write a number of Stored Procedures to replace the MS Access code. My first attempt worked on a small sample, however, trying to move this on to a real table hasn't worked (I've amended the SP and code to try and get it to work on 2 fields, rather than the full 20 plus).It works in SQL Management console (supply a Client ID, it returns all the client details), but does not return anything (recordset closed) when trying to access via VBA code.The Stored procedure is:-
USE [VMSProd]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [Clients].[vms_Get_Specified_Client] Script Date: 22/09/2015 16:29:59 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[code]....

I have a client who has SSMS installed on her laptop. She is able to connect to the SQL server via SSMS in the office and query data on the server.
She needs to be out of site often and doesn't have internet access. She asks if the data tables can be "backed up" or saved on her laptop, so she can look at them without worrying connecting to the server. I am not sure if this can be achieved, as SSMS is built for accessing a server, not a desktop. Myself never have this need. If I really need it, I would go to Microsoft Access and create an ODBC connection to the datatables. But this client thinks that Microsoft Access is beneath her.

I have recently upgraded to SQL2014 on Win2012. The Access front end program works fine.
But, previously created Excel reports with built in MS Queries now fail with the above error for users with MS 2013. The queries still work for users still using MS 2007.
I also cannot create any new queries and get the same error message. If I log on as myself on the domain to another PC with 2007 installed it works fine, so I don't think it is anything to do with AD groups or permissions.

We need to insert data/rows from a SQL Server 2014 database into MS Access database. The problem is, there are so many columns (100+) in the table and there are so many insert transactions of this kind (from different tables) that it is not very easy to write the code in VB.NET that lists all column names.
Both the Access and SQL Server tables have the same number of columns and the equivalent data types, so inserting is not really the problem. It's just that is there a way to do an insert statement in T-SQL that does not name all the columns?

Hi guys,
I've been developing desktop client-server and web apps and have used Access and SQL Server Standard most of the time.
I'm looking into using SQL CE, and had a few questions that I can't seem to get a clear picture on:
- The documentation for CE says that it supports 256 simultaneous connections and offers the Isolation levels, Transactions, Locking, etc with a 4GB DB. But most people say that CE is strictly a single-user DB and should not be used as a DB Server.
Could CE be extended for use as a multi-user DB Server by creating a custom server such as a .NET Remoting Server hosted through a Windows Service (or any other custom host) on a machine whereby the CE DB would run in-process with this server on the machine which would then be accessed by multiple users from multiple machines??
Clients PCs -> Server PC hosting Remoting Service -> ADO.NET -> SQL CE
- and further more can we use Enterprise Services (Serviced Components) to connect to SQL CE and further extend this model to offer a pure high-quality DB Server?
Clients PCs -> Server PC hosting Remoting Service -> Enterprise Services -> ADO.NET -> SQL CE
Seems quite doable to me, but I may be wrong..please let me know either ways
Thanks,
CP

I would like to spend as much time as I can working on SQL projects but my daytime job doesn't exactly call for it. My end goal is to be MS SQL DBA certified and hands on skills will help me get there.
Is there a website where I could offer my time and skills to work on SQL projects - DB design, scripting, development, admin, etc - I would offer my time and sklls for cheap or free in exchange for the experience.
Thanks,

I have gone through the above and, while I can connect to the sql server and activate connections, I can not add a sql database to a project.
Open a project
Right click - add new item
Choose sql database
or
Add existing item
choose existing sql database
results in:
"Connections to SQL server files (*.mdf) require sql server express 2005 to function properly blah blah blah"
Like I said, I can connect to the DB through the server explorer and view table definitions and data. I just can't add one to a solution. I have reinstalled sqlexpress already and am trying to avoid having to reinstall visual studio.

I guess the Subject line sums it all up, but I need some experienced explanation of what do a solution and a project represent, and how do I use them to my advantage.
Is a solution an entire database? If so, how can I create a solution from my existing databases?
Are either of them a way to collect together scripts etc which will be run against a production database when the solution is rolled out?
What is a project? Is it a single set of scripts related to an upgrade to a database? If so, can it be executed as a single entity? How is the sequence of execution controlled?
And so on and so on....
2005 is such a step backwards for DBA's with all the features we used to have and now don't. If it wasn't for the fact that MS will eventually stop supporting 2000, I frankly see no incentive to upgrade myself.
Ok, OK, flame off.
Can anybody suggest some resources which might give me some insight into these questions?
Thanks,

I have recently switched to SQL 2005 and have been following this guide to create a new DTS project.
The only problem is the "Data Transformation Project" option does not show in my list of available 'templates'.
I double checked the install using the add/remove programs feature to update the installation -- all components under the business intelligence section are installed.
Here is the step by step of what I am doing:
1. Launch SQL Server Business Intelligence Development studio.
2. File --> New Project
3. Under the Business Intelligence Projects I am looking for Data Transformation Project but do not see it listed.
Here is what I do have:
Analysis services project
Integration services project
report model project
import analysis services 9.0 database
report server project wizard
report server project
Anyone know what the problem is/where I can find DTS?

I'm trying to open an Reporting Services project in Sql Server Business Intelligence Development Studio (which looks a lot like Visual Studio 2005). This project was copied from another computer where it runs normally. I get the following error when trying to open it...
Package Load Failure
Package 'DataWarehouse VSIntegration layer' has failed t load peoperly (guid = etc..). Please contact package vendor for assistance. Application restart is recommended, due to possible enfvironment corruption. Would you like to disable loadinug for this package in the future? you may use 'devenv /resetskippkgs' to re-enable package loading.
I also tried to create a new Reporting services project and I got the following error....
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer, Version=9.0.242.0...blah blah.
Some of my research so far says the first message could be related to having ran a beta version of vs2005 on this system which I did. However the ordinary vs2005 asp.net project appear to run normally.
How can I fix this problem?

Hey All,
I'm tring to figure out the best way to organize my reports.
When I create a new Reporting Service Project throught the 2005 .NET IDE, I'm allowed to have 1 folder in the project to deploy to. I've tried adding folders under the default Reports folder, but I haven't found a way to do this. I'd like to be able to add more directories so I can deploy them right to the server, and they will be in the proper folders, with the correct access rights.
A developer here has offered the approach of One Report - One Project. I don't want to do this because the reports have so much in common, like datasources, that I don't want to be flipping back an forth from one project to the next.
I did also look to see if there was a way to assign a dircetory to each report, rather than the project level, but I didn't see way to do that. I also, tried to add folder through the Windows Explorer and see if I could get around this restriction, but no luck there either.
Anyway, How is everyone else organizing they projects?
