Just wondering if some one can help me out here I know that we can work with access2003 as a front end and SQL2000 as a back end. What I am trying to do now is working with SQL2005 as a back end I was wondering if it can be done ( I can access it but having errors creating tables etc).
Thanks
Sorry I was not sure where exactly to post this topic as it relates to both dbs so I have posted this same thread in Access as well.
I am trying to evaluate the pros and cons of using SQL Server over oledb connection to an access database.
So far
Pros Cons Access: Doesnt need to be installed by user. 2GB Data limit
SQLExpress: Not sure yet - more than 2gb data User has to install SQL Server compact.
Is there anything iv missed?
Iv run a quick test to decide on speed my results seem to suggest that oledb is faster at writing data, and SQL Server is faster at reading.
The test program clears the database:
and times how long it takes to insert 10000 records, the read the 10000 records back for OLEDB, then SQL Express.
Code Snippet using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Data.OleDb; using System.Data.SqlClient; using System.Timers; namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { static int a = 0; static int b = 0; static void Main(string[] args) {

oledbcmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Table1"; OleDbDataReader oledbreader; oledbreader = oledbcmd.ExecuteReader(); while (oledbreader.Read()) { oledbreader.GetInt32(0); } tmr0.Enabled = false; SqlConnection sqlcon = new SqlConnection("Data Source=localhost\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=;Integrated Security = SSPI"); sqlcon.Open(); SqlCommand sqlcmd = new SqlCommand("CREATE DATABASE Test",sqlcon); try { sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); } catch { } sqlcmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE Table1 (num INT)"; try { sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); } catch { } sqlcmd.CommandText = "DELETE FROM Table1"; sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); tmr1.Enabled = true; for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++) { sqlcmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Table1 (num) VALUES ('" + i.ToString() + "')"; sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); } int bb = b; b = 0; sqlcmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Table1"; SqlDataReader sqlreader = sqlcmd.ExecuteReader();
while (sqlreader.Read()) { sqlreader.GetInt32(0); } tmr1.Enabled = false; Console.WriteLine("OLEDB"); Console.WriteLine("Inserted 10000 records in "+aa.ToString()+"ms"); Console.WriteLine("Read 10000 records in " + a.ToString() + "ms"); Console.WriteLine("TOTAL: " + ((a + aa).ToString()) + "ms"); Console.WriteLine("SQL SERVER"); Console.WriteLine("Inserted 10000 records in " + bb.ToString() + "ms"); Console.WriteLine("Read 10000 records in " + b.ToString() + "ms"); Console.WriteLine("TOTAL: " + ((b + bb).ToString()) + "ms"); Console.ReadKey();
For the access database create a access2003 mdb file with a table "Table1" and a colomn of type integer called "Can";
save it as C:database1.mdb
Then compile and run above.
My results wereslow machine)

I have a requirement to migrate the data from an existing MS Access database to a newly designed SQL Express 2005 database . Need less to say the table structures in both are totally different.I would like to know how can i handle a scenerio where i want to map table A in access to table B in SQL express (the schema of both different and the number of columns can vary too) , how do i migrate the data from table A in Access to Table B in SQL express using SSMA?
Also i would appreciate if some one can tell me is SSMA the right tool for this , or should i use the upsizing wizard of MS Access.If there is no change in schema between source and destination databases (more of upsizing) then the process is pretty straight forward , The constraint here is that the data needs to be migrated to a new schema where the column names and number of columns can vary between the source table and destination table.. I just need to migrate data only and no other objects.
I have created an Access2003 project (existing data) that links to external data. First I connected to a SQL Server 2000 database. Success. Then I tried to set up a Transact SQL data connection to a legacy MDW-secured Access97 database. (A third-party VB6 application goes against it, and we don't have the source code, so we cannot upgrade it.)
The Transact SQL link tests OK but I cannot select any of the tables or queries from the list presented. However, with the same credentials, I can use these same objects in Excel 2003.
When setting up the link in Access2003, I specify JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider, I enter the MDW file on the All tab, a username and a password on the Connection tab where I browse to the MDB file, and specify Shared Deny None on the Advanced tab. When I test the connection, it tests OK ("Test connection succeeded"). Yet on the "Select the Database and Table/Cube which contains the data you want" dialog, "(Default)" appears in the grayed-out dropdown. Then, beneath that dropdown, there is a grid with Name and Description columns. The grid contains query names but the grid is not enabled. The list of queries is this table is grayed out. Neither of the scrollbars works.
BUT... if I use the SAME username and password in Excel2003, and specify the same MDW, there is no problem working with these same database objects in the legacy Access97 database. WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE WIZARD IN EXCEL THAT ALLOWS IT TO SUCCEED AND THE WIZARD IN ACCESS THAT CAUSES IT TO FAIL HERE? In Excel, the list of available providers says Microsoft Access Driver, not JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
I just upgraded my SQL 2000 server to SQL2005. I forked out all that money, and now it takes 4~5 seconds for a webpage to load. You can see for yourself. It's pathetic. When I ran SQL2000, i was getting instant results on any webpage. I can't find any tool to optimize the tables or databases. And when I used caused SQL Server to use 100% cpu and 500+MB of ram. I can't have this.Can anyone give me some tips as to why SQL 2005 is so slow?
I am unable to install 32-bit SQL Server Integration Services on the server due to something that was left behind by the 64-bit version.
I've uninstalled SQL Server 2005 64-bit and when I try to install the 32-bit version of Integration Services, I get this error: "Failed to install and configure assemblies C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90DTSTasksMicrosoft.SqlServer.MSMQTask.dll in the COM+ catalog. Error: -2146233087 Error message: Unknown error 0x80131501 Error descrition: FATAL: Could not find component 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Task.MessageQueueTask.ServCompMQTask' we just installed."
I can't seem to figure out how to resolve this problem with the COM+ and I can't remember if Integration Services is required.
I have some production boxes on Win 2000 32-bits OS and some production servers have been upgraded to Win2003 64-bit OS runing SQL Server 2005. There are also a number of Win2003 32-bit OS running SQL 2005.
The issue is that when linking the 64-bit production servers to the 32-bit boxes running SQL 2005 / Win 2003 OS, the linking seems to succeed, but I am unable to see a number of entries in sys.objects. Typically, these objects are User Stored Procedures.
Moreover, the linking seemed to have worked, but data extraction does not take place between the servers. However, there are no errors. The objects (user stored procs) exist on the 64-bit side, but linking does not actually happen.
Microsoft KB has addressed this in SQL 2000 case in this KB article, but has not suggested a solution for SQL 2005.
when iam trying to open a table in sqlserver 2005 it is showing an error as SELECT permission denied on object 'LoginDetails', database 'LOGIN', schema 'dbo'. how to rectify the error. plz help me. Thnaks in advance.
Is it possible to say sql server 2005 to use this much number of CPU..?
For Example I have 1 CPU License of SQL 2005, but I have 2 sockets in my physical box. One socket is having 2 cores. So I want to say the SQL server (2005) to use the 2 cpu's only( i.e Any of one socket)
Please advise me to do this.
I have one more question, Is there any CPU limitation for SQL 2005 and 2008? If Yes how much cpu we can allot for the SQL 2005 and 2008
I am installing sql2005 sp1 on a w2k3 Cluster. All we need is the database engine however the vendor I am working with said to install sp1 which is fine but they also said you need to install Integration services with SP1 for the Maintenenace plans. Do I need to install Integration services on the cluster to create maintenance plans with sql2005 sp1 ?? I am getting mixed answers.
I hope you would help me in this problem. I use the code below for executenonquery command for mdb DB.But I do not know the changes I should made when Using SQL2005.-------------Dim connectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; " & _ "Data Source=C:ASPNET20dataNorthwind.mdb" Dim dbConnection As New OleDbConnection(connectionString) dbConnection.Open() Dim commandString As String = "INSERT INTO Employees(FirstName, LastName) " & _ "Values(@FirstName, @LastName)" Dim dbCommand As New OleDbCommand(commandString, dbConnection) Dim firstNameParam As New OleDbParameter("@FirstName", OleDbType.VarChar, 10) firstNameParam.Value = txtFirstName.Text dbCommand.Parameters.Add(firstNameParam) Dim lastNameParam As New OleDbParameter("@LastName", OleDbType.VarChar, 20) LastNameParam.Value = txtLastName.Text dbCommand.Parameters.Add(LastNameParam) dbCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() dbConnection.Close()--------
What is the quivalent of EM for SQLExpress2005? With the old SQL 2000 I used EM to manage tables, SPs and such. Now, I cannot even find the databases - I installed the Club Starter Kit and I want to view and modify some tables. How do I do that?
Hi folks, i have VSTS installed and TFS beta refresh 3. all is working fine. How can i use Visual Studio 2005 to create a new database on the remote server? i can connecto to it fine using the 'server explorer' tab .. but of course it only lists databases that currently exist. How can i create a new one? lastly, i have no installed sql2005 express edition or whatever it is called LOCALLY on my machine. the reason i didn't do this is becuase i was hoping to use the enterprise sql 2005 server.
Help... I am new to C# and .net and I am trying to build a insert page with a couple of drop down controls where I pull a categoryID and subcategoryID to populate my dropdown controls from a MS sql2005 express database. I am using a book that only shows how to build the script and access a access database and I am getting this error when trying to pull up the page:

Below is my code and I am not sure what the syntax needs to be when connecting to a ms sql datasource. Thanks in advanced :)
I have an SQL2005 db residing on a 64bit server.I can load and run my App, provided it is installed on the server.However when I try to run from a Client's PC I get timeout errors.
Initially the error was Remote connections not allowed,but I have overcome this by ensuring SQLbrowser was running and that AllClient and Server Prodtocols were enabled.
I now keep getting a message the timeout has expired.
hi Did someone have the answer for this problem of SQL2005?
Event filter with query "select * from __InstanceModificationEvent within 10 where TargetInstance isa 'Win32_Service'" could not be (re)activated in namespace "//./root/Microsoft/SqlServer/ComputerManagement" because of error 0x80041010. Events may not be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.
Hi all, I perform a export using sql2005 wizard to output the data from a table to a execl file and at the same time create a package.

hi, on the MS site it states : For Workgroup and Standard, each virtual or physical operating environment containing a running instance of SQL Server requires a Server license.
Does this mean if I have 1 server running 6 instances I would require 6 SQL Server licenses ?
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. 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: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233)

I have two SQL servers setup; A - SQL 2005, and B - SQL 2000.
I would like to create an account on Server A which has access to the results from one view via a linked server on Server B. I don't want the user on Server A to be able to access any databases, tables or even columns on Server B with the exception of those contained within this view.
Is this possible, and how would I go about doing it? (Permission-wise)
I have just loaded SQL2005(server only)on my production box. This box also is running SQL2000. When I install the SQL2005 SP2 it says that if services are locked they will cause a reboot. I stop all the SQL 2005 services but it also want to stop SQL2000 Server for "backward compatiblilty". I thought installing a separate instance of SQL2005 would not have any effect on my SQL2000 instance. Thanks for your help R/P
