DATEFIRST is a server variable, so you can't execute SET on it in any type of procedure. You'll need to either change it separately or you could check with your DBA to see if there is any problem with making the change permanent.

Hi
I have two Classes: Invoice and LineOfInvoice. In class LineOfInvoice I have a field named "line_number". My question is: in a datagrid the user removes line 3 of the invoice. What is the best way to update the line number field of invoice after third line (witch was removed). Line 4 becomes line 3, line 5 becomes line 4, ...
Remove all lines and insert all lines again with the right numbering from datagrid?
update only de rows after the line removed?
Thanks!

I did something similar to this a while ago.
I just updated the lines after the one that was removed with an SQL like this:
UPDATE [tableName]
SET line = line - 1
WHERE idKey = @idKey
AND line > @removedLine
Hope it helps!

use parametrized query, it will work plus it prevents you from SQL injection.
see MSDN[^] for details.

Like David said, use parameterised query.
However, if you're not using .Net, then create a function to replace all your single quotes (') to TWO single quotes ('') not a double quote, e.g. haytham's becomes haytham''s.
Hope it helps!

Hi all
I am an experienced VB/COM+ programmer. Now I need to switch to .Net environment. So please help me to clear my doubt on COM+. How can we bring the same functionality of COM+ through VB.Net/C#.Net? In VB we have to develop a DLL and register the same under Component Services, but what about the .Net. Is it too much different? Etc…
Thank You.

I am trying to update a table in SQL Server 2000 that will be able to have varying column names (based on the user's specifications). I can read the data fine, but I can't add anything to the table. There are spaces in the column name (i.e. "Received By") and when reading I put brackets [] around it and it works. When I am trying to write to the table, I can update the dataset fine, but not the table in SQL Server. I believe it is a problem with my parameter declaration. When I try to save the data, I get the following error:
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'varchar'.
My code is as follows (not everything because it is quite lengthy):
Dim custom01 As String 'Contains the name of the column/field
Dim sampleTable As String 'Contains the name of the table within SQL Server
sampleUpdate = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("UPDATE " & sampleTable & " SET " & custom01 & " = @" & custom01, dataConnect)
With sampleUpdate
With .Parameters
.Add("@" & custom01, SqlDbType.Varchar, 50, custom01)
End With
End With
As I said, I can update the dataset fine, but when I try to up the dataset back into SQL Server, it crashes. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Where is the name of your table? You declare a string to hold the table but you did not give any table name to that string variable (according to the code). So your sampleTable variable would contain "". Try to give your table name and to the sampleTable variable before process the query.

For simplicity's sake, I did not include most of the code. The "sampleTable" variable is actually a global variable that houses the table name, but I included the Dim statement to show that it was a variable.

I am using a MS Access Database.
Can anyone suggest some SQL to find the lowest unused number from one a column, say 'Quantity' for example?
Thanks

What do you mean by unused number? Do you mean that the number that is the lowest value in the table. If so, try the following statement:
SELECT * tblTest ORDER BY tblTest.Quantity
The above statement will sort the column Quantity from the lowest value to the highest value (suppose from 0 to 100). Then the first record of your database will be the lowest value.

What I mean by unused number is for example I have the following numbers in my column
1
2
3
4
6
7
8
I want it to return the value 5 because that is the lowest value that does not appear in the column.
Is it possible to write a query to do that?

It is, if you have another table with integer values.
The SQL will be like this:
SELECT MIN(tblInteger.Number)
FROM tblInteger
WHERE tblInteger.Number NOT IN
(
SELECT Numbers
FROM tblData
)
tblData will be the table you described while tblInteger will have integer numbers you use.
So far that's the only way I can think of, maybe others can help?

Hi
How can the database can be backup and restore across network in sql server
suji
|
|
|

The destination should have a share on it for the sql server user.
You need to give more details.
Are you trying to do it through app, query analyzer or mmc?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes I tried it But it doen't support. can u explain little brief.
i'm tried in mmc and Query analyzer

I think you can that, try to read the information from here[^], and SQL server product documentation.

Hi,
I run this in query analyzer
dump database MYDB to disk = 'c:\temp.dat' with init
sql server fails to back up and returns
Server: Msg 3202, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Write on 'c:\temp.dat' failed, status = 64. See the SQL Server Error Log For More details.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Backup Database is terminating abnormally
Please help, this has to be resolved before production goes online on monday.
Any hints will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Ok I think I know what the problem is. Sorry for the 'c:\temp.dat'. The path is actually
'\\myserver\c$\temp.dat'. The status = 64 means The specified network name is no longer available ( ERROR_NETNAME_DELETED ). But the myserver is the name of the computer on which sql server runs. I mean sql server is installed on myserver. So it should be same as saying c:\temp.dat.
So the query becomes
dump database MYDB to disk = '\\myserver\c$\temp.dat' with init
But in case of c:\temp.dat it succeeds and in case of \\myserver\c$\temp.dat it fails ( it used to work, but ahs been failing recently).
Now i tried following.
1. I am able to access c drive on myserver by typing \\myserver\c$ in windows explorer from another computer on LAN.
2. I am able to access c drive by typing \\myserver\c$ in the windows explorer on myserver.
3. ping 127.0.0.1 return normal results on myserver.
So why does windows generates ERROR_NETNAME_DELETED when i run
dump database MYDB to disk = '\\myserver\c$\temp.dat' with init
in query analyzer???

I'm missing something and would appreciate a pointer to what might be wrong. The following code
CString strSQLSelectID = "SELECT PARAM_COUNT, SELECT_STRING FROM P2P.SELECT_SOURCE_COMPLETE";
CString strParamCount;
CString strSelectString;
CRecordset* pSet = new CRecordset(m_DB);
if ( pSet->Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, strSQLSelectID, CRecordset::readOnly) )
{
pSet->GetFieldValue("PARAM_COUNT", strParamCount);
pSet->GetFieldValue("SELECT_STRING", strSelectString);
}
results in an exception being thrown in the first call to GetFieldValue(). The details of the error are
Error: GetFieldValue operation failed on field 0.
Invalid cursor state
State:24000,Native:0,Origin:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager]
Thinking that the cursor is not being setup correctly I tried more 'ordinary' values on the open statement, like the following
if ( pSet->Open(AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE, strSQLSelectID) )
but this results in the Open call throwing an exception with it's details being
No columns were bound prior to calling SQLFetchScroll/SQLExtendedFetch
State:SL009,Native:0,Origin:[Microsoft][ODBC Cursor Library]
The SQL should return 1 row and when I step through the Open call, I can see that the instance of pSet does allocate memory for two field definitions that corresponds to the two columns being queried. I'm missing something basic, I hope, but not sure what. Thanks.

I am new to programming so this is probably a newbie question. I am using visual studio 2002, and am writing in c#. I just want to connect to a jet 4.0 database. These are the steps that I followed.
1. Opened up Server Explorer.
2. Dragged and Dropped the Connection I wanted onto the Form.
3. Dragged and Dropped a DataAdapter from the toolbox onto the Form.
4. I configured the DataAdapter to query all the columns from the Data Table.
5. I right-clicked the DataAdapter and chose generate dataset.
At this point I closed visual studio. When I Opened it again an error came up which said "Specified cast is not valid". Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error?
Thanks.

Hmmm... it'd be easier if we could see the code from the InitializeComponent part of the form, but just a quick check, Are you using OleDbConnection and OleDbDataAdapter?

Good day. I was able to connect to a database server using SQL Server Enterprise Manager. The Server name specified on the tree is JOMARGON(Windows NT). But no server was detected using either Visual Studio .NET and SQL Server's query analyzer.
I highlighted one database (master) on the SQL Server Enterprise Manager and chose 'SQL Query Analyzer' under the 'Tools' menu. It worked. The Title of the Query Analyzer window is
SQL Server Analyzer - [Query- JOMARGON.master.JOMARGON\JM Gonzalez
and below on the status bar, I can see
JOMARGON(8.0) and JOMARGON\JM Gonzalez(52)
But again, I cannot connect manually using Query Analyzer as nothing is listed in the SQL Server drop-down list
Thanks.
