How Do I Import Data In SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005

Mar 8, 2008




I am still a bit of a noob with SQL, but, when I use Enterprise Manager with my SQL 2000 server at the office, it is pretty simple to import data from pretty much any data source. I have not been able to locate the Transform facility in the 2005 express software that I downloaded onto my home pc (to help me learn SQL). Did I not install something that I need? or am I just missing what I am looking for? The net question is, how do I import data?

Thanks,

Tom

SQL Server Management Studio Express - Import Data...?

Jun 14, 2006

Hi, I have Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express and do not see how I can enable the Import Data... feature which I have seen on the regular Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio version.

Basically, if I right-click on a database, I'd like to use the Import Data... function which should be found in this menu under the Tasks... item. The Import Data... menu choice is visible just below the Generate Scripts... choice in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio but not in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express.

Can anybody tell me if this feature is available in the express version. If not what are my options in order of least cost. Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is really beyond my ability to purchase.

Thanks for your advice!

Where Can I Find The Import Data/Export Data Options If I Only Have The SQL Server Management Express Studio?

Oct 4, 2007



Hi all,

It looks like these options are only available in the SQL Server Management Studio? I installed SQL Server Management Express Studio and I can't even find the DTSWizard.exe on my machine.

Can you please help how I can import data from excel or where can I download the SQL Server Management Studio?

Your prompt response is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Import Existing Database Into SQL SERVER EXPRESS Management Studio Express

Feb 18, 2008



Hi,

I am a newbie so i apologies beforehand for any mistakes i make on this forum.
Anyway, i created an asp.net website using the MS Visual Web developer tool. This has a couple of SQL SERVER databases within it.
I then latervinstalled the SQL SERVER management studio express in order to manage the SQL SERVER DBs that i had as part of my website but they do not appear within the management studio db list.
As this is the express version, is there anyway of importing the existing SQL SERVER dbs that i have to the management studio so i can manage them from there?

Regards,

Shuja.

How To Configure SQL Server Management Studio Express To Allow Doing Non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 From VB 2005 Express?

Mar 5, 2008

Hi all,

For the first time, I want to set up the configuration of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to allow me in doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. The SSMSE and VB 2005 Express are in my Windows XP Pro PC that is part of our NT 4 LAN System in our office. I read the article "How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remotre connections" in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277/ about (i) "Enable remote connections for SQL Server 2005 Express", (ii) Enable the SQL Server Browser service", (iii) Create exception in Windows Firewall, and (iv) Create an exception for the SQL Server Browser service in Windows Firewall. I entered the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and I could not decide what options I should take for doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. I have the following questions on the page of "Minimize SQL Server 2005 Surface Area":
(1) I saw "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]". I clicked on [change computer] and I saw the
following: Select Computer
The Surface Area Configuration of this surface area of this computer or a remote computer.
Specify a computer to configure: O Local computer
O Remote computer
Should I choose the "Local computer" or the "Remote computer" option?
(2) Below the "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]",
I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connections", Select a component and then configure its services and connections: |-| SQLEXPRESS
|-| Database Engine
Service
I picked => Remote Connection
On the right-hand side, there are: O Local connections only
O Local and remorte connections
O Using TCP/IP
O Using named pipes only
O Using both TCP/IP and named pipes
Should I choose O Local and remorte connections and O Using named pipes only?

Please help and tell me what options I should choose in (1) and (2).

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Can't Connect To SQL 2005 Express With SQL Server Management Studio Express

Mar 10, 2006

I've seen the following error posted when people try to connect to their server via their applications but didn't see anyone having problems when trying to connect with SQL Server Management Studio Express. Am I missing something here? This is the error:<<An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)>>The server is not remote so I don't see why I need to enable remote connection. I am also using the default connection settings.

Northwind Database In SQL Server Management Studio Express Is Lost Or Used/processed By VB 2005 Express:How To Locate/return It

Dec 3, 2007

Hi all,

In the last one and half years, I used the Northwind Database in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to learn the programming of SqlConnections, Data sources, Database Exploere, ADO.NET 2.0, etc. via VB 2005 Express.

The Northwind Database in my SSMSE got lost very often, but I was not aware of it. How can I know where the Northwind Database is used or processed by my VB 2005 Express projects that were the examples of some tutorial books or my trial projects? How can I release the Northwind Database back to my SSMSE from the VB 2005 Express projects? Please help and advise.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Bug With SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express

Jul 18, 2007

Every time I try to remove 'condensed type' from the custom table view (working in database diagrams) the MSE crashes on me, as soon as I push the < button to remove it from the list of columns.


Is there a forum or place to post such a bug, or someone to send full details to? When it dies, it doesn't give me an option to send the information to MS.



Cheers,

SQL SERVER 2005 Issue, Cannot Connect Using Management Studio Express

Aug 1, 2007

I am unable to connect to my database on a VPS server using server management studio express. I am able to ping the server. can connect to a local database but i have the same issue as others

Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server

have set the server so that it will allow remote connections and reset the server just to make sure that it has been implemented.


when i use osql in command prompt to make a test connection it tells me this

[SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server
[SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
[SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.


on this forum it says to perform a ping and and an a ping a- to my server which does work.

Have been working on this for 3 days and can't figure it out.
Even had a guy in New Zealand who is usually my messiah of SQL and he can't figure it out so I'll be impressed if someone knows the answer.

I will buy a crate of beer for the person who solves this for me as this problem is costing me money! Maybe even 2 if done by end of tomorrow 6pm GMT!

If you don't want the beers, i will be more than happy to give a virtual pat on the back. :-)


If you need any more info, i will be watching this thread like a hawk so i'll happily answer any questions that you may have if i can.

Thanks in advance

How To Install Management Studio Express 2005 After VS2008 On Server 2008?

May 31, 2008

Ok so here's what happened:

Installed Server 2008 (64bit)
Installed VS2008 (+SQL 2005 Express, by default)

I've always installed SQL 2005 Dev (including the SQL Management Studio) before installing VS. Now I am trying to install just the management studio on this machine without success.

I tried installing the SQL workstation tools package from the SQL 2005 DVD but the installer detects the tools installed by SQL express (osql, etc.., but no management studio GUI) and the installer refuses to install anything else. I also tried downloading the separate installer for SQL management studio but it doesn't like something also: first thing the installer does is display this mesage:

"Installation of this product failed because it is not supported on this operating system For more information on supported configurations, see the product documentation."

Any way to do this without having to reinstall VS?

Thanks.
