I get the following error when I try to substitute the strings in the databasedetails collection with variables: Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. StackTrace: at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.TransferObjectsTask.TransferObjectsTask.CheckLocalandDestinationStatus(Database srcDatabase, DatabaseInfo dbDetail) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.TransferObjectsTask.TransferObjectsTask.TransferDatabasesUsingSpAttachDetach()
I created the following variables: strDestinationDB = AirCL2Exp_new3 strDestinationDBPath = C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLDATAAirCL2Exp_new3_Data.mdf strDestinationLGPath = C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLDATAAirCL2Exp_new3_Data.ldf strSourceDB = AirCL2Exp strSourceDBPath = C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLDataDataNewAirCL2Exp_Data.mdf strSourceLGPath = C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLDataDataNewAirCL2Exp_Log.ldf
I then assigned those variable to DatabaseDetails Collection:
Inaddtion I also assigned the following to the two DatabaseFiles Collection: for 0: DatabaseFileSize = 0 DestinationFilePath = @strDestinationDBPath FileType = DatabaseFile SourceFilePath = @strSourceDBPath SourceSharePath = @strSourceDBPath
i realize this is a basic question, but i'd like advise on the best way to create a table to store financial time series data. i already have a table to store securityid which is the primary key. However, when i move over to the table to store time series, i will have many secid as well as different dates and types of data. what should my primary key-autonumbered or concatenated from secid and date etc...in addition, i want to have a good way to query the table to make sure there are no dupes (same secid and same data etc). many thanks
I'm getting this error when I try to use "inserted" table in my create trigger call.
--------------------------- Microsoft Development Environment --------------------------- ADO error: The column prefix 'inserted' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query.

I have a search form in an ASP.NET/VB page. The form has the input text box and the button "search". The keywords are passed in the URL to results.aspx.
Here is an example of what I get in the URL, when I write the keywords "asp", "book" and "london" in the input text box and click "search": results.aspx?search=asp%20book%20london
The database table has 3 fields: "id", "title" and "description".
I want to display all the records where at least one of the keywords is found in any of the 2 fields "title" and "description".
1. I suppose I need to get the words out of the URL to be used by SQL. Maybe: string[] searchString = request.queryString("search").split('search'); ??? How can i make this run when page loads? I supose i need it. Right?
2. How should the SQL look? I supose i need to use the "Like" command SELECT * FROM books WHERE title LIKE ... But how to I use it if I can have 1, 2, 3, ... keywords?

Is it possible to create reports with Sql Express edition i.e. like you can with SQL full edition? If not are there any other add on free tools that allow you to do this?
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 ??

I want to combine two of my fields somewhat like when you combine to char fields and concatenate them. But these two fields are int. How do i do that? Here's my query right now:

I have a requirement to create dynamic reports for my client.
once i create these reports then the user will choose columns of there choice.
so the columns may belong to multiple tables.
Now the report should get generated with the layout etc. is it possible.
since our project is totally on the webserver(webbased.)
please if you can provide me with any links with dynamic report creation wizards.
and also we only use Stored procedures via database.
which is best is writing the entire queries right behind the layouit or calling the entire logic via Stored procedure. i am a bit confused. this is my first project working on reports itself.
I would like to know if is possible to create dynamic reports based on cubes. What i mean is,after creating a cube with a couple of dimensions and measure if is there any way to give the normal users on the report manager or report builder the freedom to choose their own dimensions/measure so they can output the report with the choosen criteria.
Hi, I'm trying to build a several tables using sql ce 3.1 I refer to the manual on Create Table: ms-help://MS.SSCE.v31.EN/ssmprog3/html/143cad25-5c1d-4c96-bd8b-6a95dbfb1b00.htm
The sample: CREATE TABLE MyCustomers (CustID int IDENTITY (100,1) PRIMARY KEY, CompanyName nvarchar (50))
Error Source: SQL Server Compact Edition ADO.Net Data Provider Error Message: There was an error parsing the query. [Token line number =1, Token line offset 40, Token in error=IDENTITY]
I tested against a SQL Desktop, everything is OK. What's wrong with the sentence? Please some advise or workaround will be appreciated Thanks MSCD Fernando Zorrilla de San MartÃn
Situation: If possible, create one stored procedure for Crystal Reports(CR). For any CR users ou there, looking for coding suggestion also. Thank you for your assistance.
Currently, CR has a header(Report Header) coming from 1 to 1 tables, there is a parameter which is passed in, allowing it to retrieve one record for the header(report header or RH).
The CR then has 4 subreports in which each has its own stored procedure. This I believe happens because the Report Header records relationship to the subreport is 1 to many. The 3 remaining subreports relationship to the Report Header is also a 1 to many. The main problem is the subreports is that there may or may not have any records based on this, the subreport is suppressed within CR and thus there can be alot of unused white space on the 1st page and one of the subreports prints on a 2nd page when it could have been on the 1st page.
Example:
Main Stored Procedure(sp) RH Tables: aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd are 1 to 1 record tables and have a @xyz parameter.
Results of subreports and their associated procedure are varchar(8000) decriptions. Each line should be counted in some manner in the stored procedure(sp) and then should be counted in CR to avoid excess white space. To complicate matters subreport 2 to has font, bold, showbox but can have different font sizes. These variations could cause different line space requirements. Any ideas?
Each line should be counted in some manner in the stored procedure and then should be counted in CR. There is a count of records for each the main stored procedure.
RH has 1 record to many records in subreport 1 with same @xyz parameter. RH has 1 record to many records in subreport 2 with same @xyz parameter. RH has 1 record to many records in subreport 3 with same @xyz parameter. RH has 1 record to many reords in subreport 4 with same @xyz parameter.
Because of the relationships, its seems impossible to create one stored procedure which give in one select statement with all the 1 to 1, 1 to many relationsips, as stated above. I thought concatinating i.e. 3 records together and then parsing it out some how in CR, along with utilizing the i.e. 3 record count to help count lines. Thought of some how creating a temporary table matrix for 8pt - 28pt for line and spacing considerations.
I need to create letter type reports using the report builder, is this possible?. I am trying to create a letter that embeds some variable fields, i.e,. name, address, contact number. I can't seem to find a way to create page headers, and embed report data fields within text. Is this not possible within the report builder? it seems that the only thing you can do within the report builder is add fields to their predesignated areas. I am being forced to use the report builder instead of the report designer in order to give the end user the ability to make modifications to the report/letter. This is very frustrating. not being able to allow the user to edit report designer files, and then having force them to use report builder which doesn't seem to support some simple features..
Why is taking so long to open/create/render the reports for the first time? Is there any configuration to change this? I don€™t think this behavior is related to Report Execution or cache! I think there is something else going on! Thanks.
I have several reports in a Power View Gallery. In Gallery view, most of the reports show the "Open New Excel Workbook", the "Create Power View Report", and the "Manage Data Refresh" buttons on the right side of the report list. Why would some reports not have these buttons available? In the attached image you can see one report with the buttons and one without the buttons.
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports, Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.
I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report. I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend? How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info. I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
