• SQL Server Automatic Trimming Transformation

  I would love to see an automatic trimming transformation. We currently have 14 different ERP systems throughout our company and almost everything we do, when it comes to strings, requires trimming. Although doing it through the derived column task is somewhat easier, it is very time consuming and error proned, if you overlook a column or two. -BradG ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 Express + User Instances

  Greetings All, It was with great excitement and interest that I installed SQL Server 2005 Express along with all the other "Express" editions of Visual Studio onto my computer.  What a great way to learn a variety of modern programming languages/techniques with no investment other than time.  I had visions of a wonderful personal website that my family could enjoy visiting.  I had visions of finally being able to work on a custom book database that my wife has frequently talked about.  I'm not sure those visions are ever going to come to fruition. The core of my problem seems to be SQL Server.  I can't even get the w ...Show All

• SQL Server Should a sysadmin have local admin rights on server?

  Hi, The company I work for outsources all its non-development IT. So all windows servers are administered by an outside company. Lately we have purchased SQL Server 2005, along with a dedicated Windows Server 2003 server. I am the sole administrator of this SQL Server, and so have sysadmin rights. However because the outside company is responsible for all windows servers, they are very reluctant to grant me local administrator rights on the server. This has been causing problems, partly because I have to go through them for many simple requests (such as moving database files, or changing SQL Server configuration files), and ...Show All

• Visual Studio Add a project template in Package.

  I am trying to create a user experience for creating custom workflows inside VS as a custom package. The behavior would essentially be the same as a workflow project, but I'd want to limit the types of activities available in the toolbox, and probably change the properties and commands. Certainly add menu commands. I'd need a custom project template and maybe some custom project item templates as well. The template I probably can create with the export template function in Visual Studio. I'd create a workflow project which does what I want it to do, then export that as a template.  I could use some advice on what would be the ...Show All
