I was wondering how to change the language settings on SQL Server. The server is currently set to US English, and I was wondering how it is possible to change it to UK English. The Server Regional Settings are set to UK English.
Also, on a semi-related topic, does SQL Server store dates in a universal format, and then when data is requested does it 'translate' these dates into the format required by that particular regional setting?
How can I make Report Builder default to produce reports using UK date format (dd/mm/yyyy) rather than USA format (mm/dd/yyyy)?
When I produce reports using Visual Studio Report Designer, I can change the Language property to English (United Kingdom) and this works fine, but Report Builder does not seem to have this property.
I know I can change the date format in the text box, but I don't want the users to have to do this for every ad-hoc report they create.
For reference I believe all my regional settings on the server and client machines are all English (United Kingdom) and all the Internet Explorer settings and Database user settings.
I'm using the ReportViewer to display reports in ASP.NET pages. The reports include dates that must be shown in its long format, but in spanish. Now, everything I'm working with is in english: my workstation and server OS, SQL Server 2005 and client browsers (I'm testing with IE and Firefox). I'm using FormatDateTime() to show dates, and I tried to change the UI culture to es-MX in web.config with no success. I'm also getting short dates as mm/dd/yyyy, but I need them as dd/mm/yyyy.
Please, any ideas are welcome, and, the more the better. Tks!
I'm running SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 on a Danish PC, and I need to have the server language set to Danish.
However, when I want to change the language in server properties (the current language is English (US) using Management Studio Express, I can't - all of the properties on the General page are greyed out.
I know that the SQL Server Express SP1 download is available in several languages (Danish not being one of them) - does that mean that I can't get my SQL Server Express SP1 installation to "speak" Danish at all?
I have a question regarding a Language property on Report, Table and Cell levels. My reports must show monetary values in different formats depending on a currency symbol where the Client resides. For instance, money fields for USA, Canada, UK are shown as 123,456,789.00 and then "$" or "£" symbol; but European countries should have 123.456.789,00 format and a Euro symbol.
I have found that XXX.XXX.XXX,00 format corresponds to the Language property = "Italian". If I set the Language property = "Italian" on Report or Cell level at design time, the report shows the expected 123.456.789,00 format, no problem. (By the way, for some reason, on the Table level this property set does not work at all)
Unfortunately, I was not able to change the Language property to "Italian" on Report or Cell level on-fly using the following expression: =IIF((Parameters!Symbol.Value="$" OR Parameters!Symbol.Value="£"),"English (United States)","Italian") For debugging, I even tried: =IIF((Parameters!Symbol.Value="$" OR Parameters!Symbol.Value="£"),"Italian","Italian") But all numbers on the report are still shown in the 123,456,789.00 format regardless the Client's currency symbol.
I don't want to have 2 sets of my reports only because if the monetary format difference. And also I don't want to CAST the monetary value into a string and mask it myself with dots and commas.
I appreciate at advance any help or comment regarding the issue very much. This is a critical bug and it must be resolved ASAP.

I am trying to connect to a SQL Server machine using SQL security instead of integrgated security. However, the server was setup initially to use only integrated security. When I right click on the server and select properties, I get this error:
Error 0: Cannot load the DLL xpstar.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: 5(Access is denied.).
I googled this error but could not find a single solution. The dll will not register with regsvr32. Do I need to repair SQL Server and then re-run the latest service pack, or is there a simple solution?

Hi We have a bunch of servers running server 2000 & 2003 along with many sql server (versions 2000 & 2005) databases in a production environment pulling transactions then doing warehousing & reporting.
An audit has shown up 1 production server using English_US 'mmddyyyy' system date formats, all others being English_Australian 'ddmmyyyy'.
Is it safe to simply change the regional settings on this English_US server to English_Australian or will it mess up the data in our SQL 2005 databases? I've not been able to get a definitive answer from anyone yet!

I am looking into a production geared software called MassGroup. (www.massgroup.com) It says that its FactoryServer builds are on a standardized SQL framework and web architecture for data collection, work order requests, reporting and asset management. My questions are:
1. Is SQL its own programming language? If not what is it? Answer: After going thru several pages and reading the fine print I discovered they use VB, ASP, COM technology, and Crystal Reports.
2. How powerful do you think this would be at gathering data and does it have the capability of creating a number sequence automatically? (example: 0001; 0002; 0003...)
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!!!!!
Good morning. I have an interesting scenario where one of the requirements of the application is to translate an application to different languages. Modelling the system to translate the UI went over without a hitch, however, we have now been told that the application will need to translate all the existing database tables. Has anyone ever had to do anything like this?
I was curious if anyone out there has any suggestions on how to approach this issue... ways in which it could be modeled, alternative approaches, anything at all would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance!
