I believe I followed the instructions. I did the steps in: To install the sample databases and samples after Setup. But then when I tried to register the AdventureWorks Database, in the New Server Registration Dialog Box, I clicked on the AdventureWorks (in the Connect to Database listbox), then I clicked TEST button, I'm getting an error says: "Cannot open database requested in login...."
So I thought it was installed but not attached, so what I did I used the ATTACH context menu in the Database, i looked for the .mdf file, but I'm still getting an error.
But I was wondering why when I installed AdventureWorks it didn't go to this path: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.n\MSSQL\Data. It when here: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Samples
\AdventureWorks OLTP. And I'm getting an error when i'm trying to attach it
hope this makes my problem clear and hope you can help me.
Thanks!

Used this code to create the field in the table:
ALTER TABLE invoice add number INT IDENTITY(10000,1) NOT NULL
Now I must be forgetting something because when I bind a page to the field
and load it for entering in the record that corresponds to it I'm not getting
the number from the database.
I cannot remember how you do this. I'm using C# but I don't consider this a
C# question. I think I need to do something else SQL Server side but I'm not
a dba and I don't remember...{SIGH}
Anybody know how I get the autonumber/identity to kick me the next number
in order on the table? I've only got experience with this in Sybase and I
don't see a correllation between this instance and Sybase at all...
Ideas?

When are you trying to get the number? After INSERTing a new record into the table? If so, use @@IDENTITY[^].

I'm actually trying to put a new record into the table and am getting errors on that field. Trying to figure out why. I know you have to pass a special parameter I just don't remember what it is...

A few changes. First off it was required in my code. I changed that. Still got some funny errors so I just removed the field as I don't really need it on the insert. I only really need the field if I show/edit the record. Once I took it out of the page and removed the references I rebuilt the solution. Everything went fine after that. When I show/edit the record it now is behaving the way I'd expect.
It has been *SO* long since I worked in the database end of things. I use to be great at data modeling but it's been years. Now I have to remember all of this again.

hi everyone,
i'm new with this software. i have installed it and i think i was able to install it successfully. but i'm wondering it seems to me this 2005 version was not installed since i don't see any difference between this and the 2000 version. when i opened the "Books online" it says there Ms Sql Server 2000. that does mean the 2005 developer edition wasn't installed?
I will really appreciate any help!

Hi all
We have an application written in VB.Net.It crashes (without showing a message or something) whenever we try to fill a dataset using a DataAdapter (any type of data adapter) with huge data under microsoft windows 98 (Our RDBMS is Microsoft SQL Server 2000)
Does anybody know what is the reason? and what should we do to prevent the crash?
Please help me.
Thanking you in advance

Hi everyone,
I am attempting to read records from a table based on a date range, however, the dates are stored in a varchar field. The format of the date is 2005-09-01 10:50:00.
How can I get around the fact that the vendor used the wrong data type?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Depends on what daabase you are using. If it's MSSQL you could cast/convert the varchar to a date before comparing it in the query:
select * from [PoorlyDesignedTable] where Cast([ShouldBeADateTimeField] as Datetime) = MyDate

Rob thanks for your quick response!
Yes it is MSSQL 2000.
Now please pardon my ignorance, but, if I have records with dates greater than 9/1/05, the following statement should return all those records rigt?
SELECT field7, field13, field14<br />
FROM myTable<br />
WHERE (CAST(field14 AS Datetime) >= '2005-09-01') AND (field7 = 'Work Order')
But my result set is empty.
What am I missing?
|

SQL Server will return those records for which
CAST(field14 AS Datetime) is greather than '2005-09-01' only if value for filed7 is equal with 'Work Order'
Your result may be empty if settings for database COLLATION or field7 COLLATION is case sensitive CS.
Try to use this condition: ... AND UPPER(field7) = 'WORK ORDER'
Be attention at spaces between WORK and ORDER !
Also, the condition for date may be rewrite thus:
MONTH( field4 ) >= 9 AND YEAR( field4 ) >= 2005

Thanks everyone for your help!
I ended up using the following statement:
WHERE (UPPER(field7) = 'WORK ORDER') AND (field14 BETWEEN @startdate AND @enddate)
Following airbus' suggestion to use UPPER , and documentation I found in SQL Sever Bible
Thanks again!

What is datetime format setting for your server ?
Use DBCC USEROPTIONS in SQL Analyzer !
VB6,C#
|
|
|
|
|
If all the values from field4 are in Y-M-D HH:MM format then SQL Server will implicit conversion VARCHAR field to DATETIME.

Hi,
One of my stored procedure returns a string, which is the combination of fields like 'Ship Name : Ship1 Port Name : Port1 City : London' and I want show this data in my Asp.Net page i.e in TextArea control as follows (i.e in multiline).
Ship Name : Ship1
Port Name : Port1
City : London.
I am adding the '\n' charector after each value like.
'Ship Name : Ship1 :XYZ \n Port Name : Port1 \n City : London'.
And in C# i am using Server.HtmlDecode, but it is not working how can I display the data in multiline.
Regards,
Kalyan

Hi Kaylan
instead using the '\n' character use Environment.NewLine . This should help.

Try '\r\n' in place of '\n', May it solve your problem
