Beginning Question About Coping/moving A Sql Database
Sep 3, 2007
First, I consider myself a novice in Mssql. I've recently began the revision of a website that uses MS Sql Server 2000. In a effort to set up a working environment on my pc, I asked to get a copy of the sql server database. The response was something like "I'm not going to do that!" or "that's too much effort" which left me baffled. Furthermore, the size of the database shouldn't be the issue.
In Access all that is needed is the .mdb file to copy a database. In Sql Server is it that more complicated? My questions are as follows
How does someone copy a sql server database to another pc?
Were they expecting that I remotely test with Sql Server? Is that possible or practical? Isn't it prefered to have the db localized?
Thanks sincerely,
Breck

I'm current copying data tables to other tables that don't, some which don't allow duplication of data, i'm dealing with about 40 tables. the insert errors when i try the full copy process, is there a way of saying copy the data if it's not there?
and if there is matching data ignore....... I have seen there is - if exist() would this work in this work in this case.
the only thing i can think of is to delete all the data from the table which in some case will lead to a loss of data- bad times :)
thanks

Hi,My questions is we want to make a copy of a database onto the sameserver while preserving the diagrams, stored procs, etc.We stopped the SQL service and made a copy of the data and log files.We attempted to ATTACH the file copies (after re-naming them), but theembedded file information tells SQL that the database already exists.Our database is a piece of junk, but we must use it. If we don't wantto use the IMPORT/EXPORT Wizard to Copy Objects (because we get someerrors during the transfer), how can we make an exact copy of theDatabase onto the same server while giving the "new" database adifferent name?Thanks:DHRUV

I have and ASP.NET and VB.NET application that needs to copy selected stored procedures from one SQL Server to another SQL Server. The scenerio is that the user will select a source server from a drop down list then the source database from another dropdown listbox which then populates a listbox with the stored procedures in the database. They can select multiple stored procedures from the listbox.
Once selected, they select a target SQL Server from a dropdownlist and then a target database from another dropwdown list. I have a command button that they need to do the actual move but I am not sure how to get the selected source stored procedures copied to the target database. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to take data and push it into a new database.
This data was taken from a database where there were many contraints, FK etc. quite a complicated structure and now sent to us with just the data in the tables with none of these constraints, FK!!
This data now needs pushing into the original database structure, so all the data will live within the constraints, but using an insert SPROC throws some FK errors, what is the best way to push this data into it's structure!
somebody suggested DTS but this doesn't take into account the constraints, also we need to run this at anytime for a number different datasets. Can anybody help ?(if you can decipher my explantion)
Many thanks for reading, please indicate if you need more info.

Hello,
I have been using Access for quite some time now, and am very comfortable with it. I would like to take the next step though, and start working with SQL server.
What do I need to begin? Windows NT? Which version of SQL? enterprise or professional? (I noticed it's very expensive) Any other things I need to know before I begin?
Thank you,
Carrie

I purchased SQL Server 2005 and intend to take a class this month. I have installed it. How do I get started trying it out? I took an online tutorial, but I don't understand the mechanics of accessing the db to start with or if I even have a db to work with. Any suggestions?

Hi everyone,
I want to set a database which will be made of two parts:
- One main set of files which is shared among users
- Another set of files which is proper to each users and will be mainly used for processing infos.
Because I must support Windows 2000 and XP as O/S platforms, I can't use SQL Everywhere. It seems that I'm stuck with SQL Express. My questions are the following:
- Can SQL Express manage database files with variable namepath?
- How can I configure SQL Express so that such a file may reside on a dynamically configurable path, I mean, which would be configured by application?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Stéphane

Greetings:I would like to ask for recommendations for a good beginning book onSQL Server. My web host offers a 100MB SQL Server database as part ofthe package, and I'd like to use the feature to learn.I am proficient in Access and familiar with basic connectivity to itvia ASP. I don't have my own license for SQL Server (and currentlycan't afford one) so all development will need to be done byinterfacing with the remote database. As such, I won't need a lot ofexplanation regarding installation and software setup.Does anyone here know of a good study resource for someone in thisscenario?Many thanks in advance,Kay

Hi all,
I am just starting to look into this interesting piece of technology, but am a little confused on how this works. I apologize if this has been asked earlier. My question is with this specific SQL server distribution, what is being used as the front end (to create and view your database & tables)? I read that SQL Server Compact Edition RC1 will have runtime only - How will you then get an application to point to a database via SQL compact?

Hi
I want to transfer a database from one PC to another. (Both running SQL Server 2005 express)
I have copied the files (SQL Server Database Primary Data File and SQL Server Database Transaction Log File) from the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData folder of the source PC to the destination PC (Same folder).
I was under the impression that using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - SQL Server Management Studio Express these files would be picked up and could be used, do I infact need to do something to attach the files/database so that they will appear in SQL Server management?

I have two computers, both with SQL Express 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio Express. I created a database on one computer, and need to copy it to the other computer. I'd like to do it all through the Management Studio interface, without using SQL commands, since I only need to do this manually.
I detached the two files, copied them to the second computer, and tried to attach them. This is generating lots of messages about not having the necessary permissions of various sorts. I think the main problem is that I don't know how to set up the database's users in a way that allows the second computer to attach the database.
I've tried Windows authentication, using a Windows user that has the same name and password on both computers, and I've defined that Windows user as a user within the database. I've connected to SQL when logged in as that user.
I've tried SQL authentication also, defining the same SQL user within both SQL Servers, as db_owner. But when I try to attach the database, I see no place to specify the user that I intend it to use, and it still fails. If I connect to SQL as that user, then SQL doesn't have permission to look at the file system to find the MDF file.
I'd appreciate the help in learning how to do this with both Windows authentication and SQL authentication, via the Management Studio's GUI. Most of the documentation I've seen covers how to do it by using SQL language commands, and I'd like to avoid that.

We are currently trying to install SQL Server 7 Enterprise edition using MS SELECT CDs. The install wizard stops at the beginning telling us that the used CD can only be used to install SQL Server clients with this computer although we used exactly this CD-ROM to install all other SQL Servers, too.
Did anybody have the same problem and knows what the reason for the abortion is?
Thanks

Hi all, I have never used SSIS before, but am looking to use it in this aspect:
1) A user uploads an Excel file into Sharepoint. This will be through a Document Library in a Sharepoint page.
2) When this file is uploaded, I'd like SSIS to notice there is a new file and process it - it will pull information from the Excel file, put it into a database, and - if this is possible - delete the new file.
3) This is iffy. Can SSIS then generate an InfoPath document from the information stored in the database? If not, I can just have a InfoPath query form.
I'd just like to know if this is possible. If you have any helpful links, please let me know - I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
James

My Ms access table
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
My Ms sql table
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
After 1 min, say 2 records are added to my Ms access table like,
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
bhuvana 103
pinky 104
Now i want to insert only the latest records from Ms access to Ms sql like,
