After I Create A Database Using Database Diagram In SQL Server7,there's Nothing To See In 'd
Jun 10, 2001
I am a beginner in learning SQLServer 7.And I learn it by using its own help file.
The only problem troubles me is that after I do some options in database diagram,there's nothing happen.And then no matter what I do,database diagram panel is always blank.
I've been tasked to create a database diagram, save it and send that db diagram to the user. Now, I am confused as I don't know where sql server stores the db diagram...what is the path where it stores the diagram. How do I export it in case if I need to provide it to the user. How, am I supposed to grant user permission so he himself can create a database diagram.
Hi,I have to prepare an ER diagram for the objects in my SQL Serverdatabase. I have used the option "DIAGRAMS" in EnterPrise Manager ofSQL Server 2000. It is creating the diagram for the selected tables(but the diagram contains only the table which i have selected. It isnot displaying its depended tables). But i am not able to export it toany of the flat file like MS WORD or paint. I want this diagram to beuploaded 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 2000database and export it to a flat file.Thanks for your help in advance.-Rao

Hello: I have an old database created in SQL Server 2000, now I can open, access it in SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, but I can't create Data Diagrams. Please advise on how to make it work.... Thank you
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! Betty
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.
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
How do u print the database diagram...basically is there any process that can generate the database diagram from the database which is already existing with the referential integrity...
Can anyone tell me about the storage of Database Diagrams. I want to know where these diagrams are stored in SQL Server? If it is in System table, which table and how to copy these diagrams into another database?

This database does not have a valid dbo user or you do not have permissions to impersonate the dbo user, so database diagramming is not available. Ensure the dbo account is valid and ensure that you have impersonate permission on the dbo account.
What is the advantages/disadvantages of using Database Diagram and link all the tables in MS SQL Server Management Studio versus letting the application check and link the different tables at run time? 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?

All -- Please help. I am having trouble printing a database diagram. When I do, I get junk artifacts on the page on each table, shaded areas that obscure part of the picture. I get these results when I print with Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and when I print to my HP4200N laser printer. Is there a required driver or something? Please advise. (I apologize but this is the only good place I could find for this post-- if you have any hints for other locations then please post links.) Thank you. -- Mark Kamoski
I attached a SQL express database created on another computer on another SQL express instance running on another computer. When I tried to open a database diagram previously created i receive the following error:
"Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects."
I must mention that in the attached database the server login is mapped to the databse as db_owner role. So what's the problem ?
Using SQLServer 2005 Express Ver 9.00, the Database Diagrams print with what looks like page borders overlapping on top of the field names. I have to document my database layouts in printed format and...this bug is not helping any!!! I've seen other posts around town so I know its not an issue with my installation, but a known and reported bug. Anyone know of when a Fix will take place, or is there a workaround?
