I'm trying to list all database locations with SQL command, but getting lost here :(
So, anyone any idea how to get databasefile locations from server?
All I need is like: 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDatamaster.mdf' and others.
I have run into some problems with logfiles and backup logfiles (MS SQL server). I have read much about them but uptil now I dont seem to grasp how it works. Specially the part of working with backup log files.
Can someone please help me with this?
What I want todo is to create backup log files, so I can restore the database to any point in time before a failure occured. But using this method create's a problem with the backup log files. They get very big.
So how can I use backup log files without getting to large backup log files?
How can I shrink on a regular basis the backup log files and still be able to restore the database?
Are there any MDS Descriptor Files associated with Databases Files? Are these associated with transaction logs? As per my information there are .mdf , .ndf and .ldf files.Could anyone please guide me ASAP,as there is an urgent requirement from one of the clients?
i need to find how many Databases in my local SQL server (programatically).i know i have 8 databases is there but i need to print each and every database.
Is there a stored procedure to list attached databases? You can do this: use Master exec sp_helpfile go
Which shows you the config files for the current DB. What if you want to do a multiple sp_detach_db? If you could get a list of the attached DB's you could recursilvely or conditioinaly detach.
Is there a way I can query the database server (SQL 2000) to get a list of all the available databases? As a threshold problem I am not clear how I would connect to the server. I am using VB.Net and presently connect to one database at a time. The connection string is in an XML file, such as:
Is there a query I can run to retrieve a list of all tables and their sizes in a database? I want something that is like the feature in Enterprise Manager when you click on a database and then the 'Tables & Index' link. It lists the tables and their respective size. I want to push this into a spread sheet.
The reason why I am doing this is the compare data between 2 different databases. Since I cannot find a tool that will compare the data, the closest I can get (without bcp-ing out all data and comparing) is to look at the sizes of each table.
I would like to allow the user of my ADO.NET application to browse through a list of the available databases on a given server. INFORMATION_SCHEMA in SQL Server Books Online doesn't describe how to do this. How can I do this? TIA, Royce
Is there a way of limiting the "Databases list" to just the databases which I have permission to? My databases is in a hosted environment, and the list of databases on that server is HUGE.
Hi all,I have to write a program to read the names of databases in AnalysisServices. I don't know which table I can get this information from.Thanks a bunch
I have MSDE running on my system and I want to get a list of databasesfor that server programmatically. I'm using vb.net and I want to view,add, delete and modify databases on a server from within a class.I'm aware I can use the "Server Explorer" feature in Visual Studio, butthat isn't what I'm looking for. Any references or suggestions on whereto start are appreciated.TIARalf
Hey guys,Couldn't find this anywhere in google.I want a list of all database column names for a specific table/viewfrom across database.I tried this...-----------------------------------------------------Select *[color=blue]>From Information_Schema.Columns[/color]-----------------------------------------------------I also tried this...-----------------------------------------------------select syscolumns.name, sysobjects.name, * from syscolumns, sysobjectswheresysobjects.id = syscolumns.idand (sysobjects.xtype='U' or sysobjects.xtype='S')-----------------------------------------------------These queries return information about the CURRENT database.But, if I want to do it ACROSS database or across servers.. how can Ido this?I will express my gratitude to everyone who is kind enough to answerthis question.

Hi everyone, I have an instance with many databases in it. I am looking for the easiest way to see which of those databases a user has a login on. What is the most efficient way of doing this? Thanks, Anil
I'm importing data form an Excel file to a Sql Server Database. Some of the data imported represents time as a double type so i convert the times into DateTime to be inserted into the database. The time values that aren't available in the Excel file are 0.. so what i want to do is insert null into the database for all the values that are 0 in the excel file... How do i do that based on this code i have so far:protected void ButtonImport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){PanelUpload.Visible = false;PanelView.Visible = false;PanelImport.Visible = true;LabelImport.Text = "";OleDbCommand objCommand = new OleDbCommand();objCommand = ExcelConnection(); OleDbDataReader reader;reader = objCommand.ExecuteReader(); while (reader.Read()){DateTime? in_1 = null;DateTime? out_1 = null;DateTime? in_2 = null;DateTime? out_2 = null; int emp_id = Convert.ToInt32(reader["emp_id"]);DateTime date_entry = Convert.ToDateTime(reader["date_entry"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["in_1"]) != 0)in_1 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["in_1"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["out_1"]) != 0)out_1 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["out_1"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["in_2"]) != 0)in_2 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["in_2"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["out_2"]) != 0)out_2 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["out_2"]); ImportIntoAttendance(emp_id, date_entry, in_1, out_1, in_2, out_2);} reader.Close();}protected void ImportIntoAttendance(int emp_id, DateTime date_entry, DateTime? in_1, DateTime? out_1, DateTime? in_2, DateTime? out_2){ SqlDataSource AttendanceDataSource = new SqlDataSource();AttendanceDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["SalariesConnectionString1"].ToString();AttendanceDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;AttendanceDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO Attendance (emp_id, date_entry, in_1, out_1, in_2, out_2) " +"VALUES ('" + emp_id + "', '" + date_entry + "', '" + in_1 + "', '" + out_1 + "', " +"'" + in_2 + "', '" + out_2 + "')"; int rowsAffected = 0;try{rowsAffected = AttendanceDataSource.Insert();}catch(Exception ex){LabelImport.Text += "<font color=red>" + ex + "</font><br />";} }private DateTime ConvertDoubleToDateTime(double dbTime){string[] SplitTime = dbTime.ToString().Split('.');string hours = SplitTime[0];string minutes = String.Empty;string time = String.Empty; if (dbTime.ToString().IndexOf('.') != -1){if (SplitTime[1].Length >= 1){if (SplitTime[1].Length == 1)minutes = Convert.ToString(Convert.ToDouble(SplitTime[1]) * 10);else if (SplitTime[1].Length > 1)minutes = SplitTime[1];}}elseminutes = "00";time = hours + ":" + minutes;return Convert.ToDateTime(time);}

Hi All, The web site I'm working on will allow admin users to create a new database for each new client. I'm hoping to be able to keep all of the databases in the local App_Data folder, but I'm finding that I can't even find a way of generating a list of the databases in the App_Data folder. The code I have is:Dim serverConn As New ServerConnection(".SQLEXPRESS") serverConn.LoginSecure = True serverConn.ConnectTimeout = 30 serverConn.Connect() Dim sqlServer As Server = New Server(serverConn)
For Each db As Database In sqlServer.Databases ListView1.Items.Add(db.Name) NextThis does populate a list of databases, but not the ones in the App_Data folder - just those attached directly to the server.Any help on this will be greatly appreciated as it's starting to drive me nuts!Thanks,Paul
I want to get the names of the databases of the server using OleDbConnection in c# which i have to add in to a combobox.....the same task i achieved using SqlConnection where in there is a Class SqlClientCollectionNames...the code is as followsusing (SqlConnection connection =new SqlConnection("Data Source=server;User ID=username;Password=passwd")) { connection.Open(); DataTable myData = connection.GetSchema(SqlClientMetaDataCollectionNames.Databases); foreach (DataRow row in myData.Rows) comboBox1.Items.Add(row[0]); connection.Close();} but the same i did for OleDbConnection it is not working using (OleDbConnection connection =new OleDbConnection("Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=server;User ID=username;Password=passwd")) { connection.Open(); DataTable myData = connection.GetSchema(SqlClientMetaDataCollectionNames.Databases);//no such method Databases present in OleDb namespace foreach (DataRow row in myData.Rows) comboBox1.Items.Add(row[0]); connection.Close(); } is there any other way to do this using OleDbConnection........??Please help

My main task is to create a login under a specific database.
For which I'm validating whether that login already exists or not I'm checking it in the syslogins table. I need to specifically check it is in my databse or not....for that what should I do...
