I consider it to be a semi toned down version of Visual Basic 6 except VBA contains objects spe ...Show All
SQL Server Download database to local and use
I have SQL database hosted by my ISP. Every now and again we log on and create new tables using user XXX1. After getting a backup of the database, I have restored it on my local machine. When running the application on local, I get an error because there is a new user in database called XXX1. I would like to change the user from XXX1 to dbo on my local machine for all tables, stored procedures and views. How do I do this easily Thanks in advance!

SQL Server SQL Server Express 2005 vs. PHP 4.4.1
Hi all, I've installed on my system(win2000 with all updates) SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, Apache 2, and PHP 4.4.1. The SQL Server seem's to work, I can run queries with Server Management Studio Express and with MSDE Query also. But I can't connect to the server with php, and I don't know why :( In php.ini I uncommented in the extensions section the line of Mssql. I've found in another topic, that another version of ntwdblib.dll would solve my problem, but I can't find a correct one. I tried with the ntwdblib.dll of php5, but it isn't good. The code: [code] <html> <body> hello1 < echo "Hello"; ...Show All

SQL Server Putting reusable code into SSIS components....
If I have standard code for logging, event handling, error handling, etc...How to do you get the standard SSIS components to include this code... I would hate to have to add this standard code, each time I add a component to my package...especialy if I have to build hundreds of them... Thx in advance... RC You have a few options. The 2 worth considering are: 1) Write a custom log provider 2) Build your custom logging/error handling into eventhandlers. 2) is, I would say, easier.

SQL Server String to Date Conversions
Having some trouble converting strings to dates. I am using a .dtsx package and have figured out how to use a derived column to convert the string to a new string which is a valid date. The problem is now converting the column data type to date. I insert a new data conversion step to convert the vchar field to date, then when it runs it fails on this step. Error is The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data." If I leave out the data conversion step and run the package, then manually change the data type to date it warns with the same message, but if I ac ...Show All

SQL Server CTE Vs Temp Table in Yukon
Hi All, I would like to know which gives better performance: CTE or Temporary Table Thanks, Suresh You cannot compare CTE and temporary table. They are different beasts. There are cases where you can break a complex query into simpler parts using temporary tables and get better performance. I am not sure how you used CTE in your query so it is hard to say. Note that CTEs also provide the capability to perform recursive queries in a declarative manner. And what are you measuring regarding the performance Is it the temporary table creation vs query using CTE returning rows If you are just measuring cr ...Show All
