I would like to create a new database and follow some standard. I am hoping that there is some ANSI documentation or Microsoft documentation on a NAMING standard when creating objects in the database.i.e Table name "tblEmployees" Column name "txtLastName" Is there any GOOD documentation on creating a database using a PROVEN, and ACCEPTED standard?

I would like to write my data access queries using a standard that will be accepted by various data sources. What is such standard and where can I read more about it?

Are there any sql commenting standards, for example some programming languages have commenting standards like Javadoc in Java, etc. Just wondering if there is any standard for TSQL comments?
thanks
I was wondering if there are generally accpeted naming standards for SQL Server ojbects (tables, store procedeures, triggers, views etc.) that might be available somewhere on the WEB. I was also wondering if most DBA`s prefix the object names like "sp_" or suffix the object like "Customer_T"? Any opinions?

Are there common naming standards for SQL tables and stored procedures? I'm creating a table for target audiences and was going to set it up like this:
Target_Audiences
Target_Audience_ID
Target_Audience
This table is really straight forward, but let me know if you would change anything. I want to use all of the most common naming standards throughout my database.
All:
One of the new tests that we are running have to do with load testing an application with a constrained network pipe. I like this. One of my beefs has been related to stored procedures that return bloated result sets. This new set of tests potentially gives me some more amunition to use when I review stored procedures. A piece that I would like to produce as a result of this has to do with establishing an output bandwidth standard for our database servers. I have a few biased ideas but I would like to know if any of you have any similar pre-existing standards along this line. Any help?

Hi,
Maybe I didn't search hard enough on BOL, but does Microsoft have a documented set of standards regarding custom component development for SSIS. Things like:
- extend this base class, implement this interface
- override these methods
- follow these naming conventions
- best practices
Thanks,

I have an application that stores xml data in an unusal manor. Basically a SQL Key column and an XML string.The XML string is not really standard XML, but it is what it is, and I'm stuck with it. It is in the format;
<row key="Value.01" xml:space="preserve"><c1>FirstName</c1><c2>LastName</c2><c3>10 Street Address, City ST 012345-1234</c3><c4>5</c4><c5>50</c5><c6>500</c6></row>
I am able to pull values out via
SELECT
p.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS c1,
p.value('(./c2)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS c2
FROM dbo.UserXMLTable
CROSS APPLY XMLRECORD.nodes('/row') t(p)
where p.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') like 'First%'
However I've been struggling with selecting row with a LIKE clause. Something like ;
SELECT *
FROM dbo.F_UserXMLTable
where XMLRECORD.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') like 'First%'
I have tried a number of permutations of XML syntax but so far have been stumpled.
Please note "<row key="Value.01" xml:space="preserve">" has a <SP> in the name 'row key' .
Does anyone know much about this tool? Also, if anyone can point me toa TSQL coding standard, please let me know.-- Dave
View 2 Replies View RelatedHaving a difficult time setting up a development environment and a set of standards for SSIS package development.
First of all, you can't run the dataflow object "SQL Server Destination" in BIDS because BULKCOPY can only be run from the actual server. So how do you test/debug a package with this object in it?
Second of all, if you create an SSIS package on a developer computer in BIDS, and then import it into the SSIS package store on your development SQL server, you can't run the package from Management Studio on the developer PC. You get the error "DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW" when it tries to run any of the SSIS. Do I have to have SSIS installed on the developer client machine? How do I do that without installing a full server instance on each client machine (not to mention the licsense issues)?
Lastly, what protection level would you suggest using for production? We are having issues with ODBC connection passwords being decrypted and thus package steps failing in using "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey". What exactly does this protection level do? Our network is physically very locked down, so we arent worried about SSIS package security too much, just looking for a way for them to work reliably without having to setup complicated security scenarios.
thanks for your time.
Visual Studio provides IntelliSense and targeted standards compliance code checkers that are extremely useful when writing code. A good example is for web pages targeted to XHTML 1.0 transitional versus strict versus XHTML 1.1.
Is there anything comparable for SQL coding in any of the Microsoft products whether Visual Studio or SQL Server Management Studio or any other development environment?
I'm looking for IntelliSense that can be targeted to one of three alternative configurations: (1) ANSI SQL-92 only, or (2) ANSI SQL-99 only, or alternatively, (3) T-SQL with proprietary Microsoft features/functions (ie, not ANSI compliant in the sense that it is no longer portable per ANSI criteria - it will break when ported due to presence of Microsoft proprietary features/functions).
If standards targeted IntelliSense is not available in any of the Microsoft products for SQL development, is there any third-party product that provides this capability?
I was told that AES 128/SHA1 is supported for SQL Server Compact 3.5. The problem is that I couldn't find any product literature from Microsoft that specifies exactly that and my client wants us to provide proof on that.
I hope to get the endorsement from the forum here, and it would be great if someone could point me to some Microsoft resources that specifies the support clearly.
I am sure this questions have been asked but i was not able to find a useful information.
1. I am looking for a SSIS Standards document or source. A document developer can use for developing ssis package. This should include how to name each container, task , and how to organize things. Basics of SSIS. Is there some kind of source where i can find this information . We are starting out to migrate from informatica to SSIS but before we do that we would like to put standards in place so all SSIS development is consistent.
2. SSIS project documentation template that we can use to document each project. Is there anything out there that we can follow to document each of our project.
We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.
Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup
Many Thanks

I have installed 2 SQL Server 2005 Express sample databases from 2 books, ASPnet 2.0 and ADOnet 2.0. The ASPNETDB.MDF was shown in App_Data and Database Explorer, but not in the SQL Server Management Studio Express. The AdoStepBy Step database created by a ConfigDB.exe was displayed in the Management Studio, but not in the App_Data, or Database Explorer.
Is this the way SQL Server 2005 runs the 2005 databases for SQL Server 2005 Express only? Or also in SQL Server 2005?
