Probably there was a previous installation of SQL Server/MSDE that was uninstalled. When SQL Server is uninstalled, databases are not deleted. Check C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server for existance, and delete everything in it.

Hi, ajith,
Best practice to put your database on the web is using ASP(Active Server Pages) which runs on the VBScript.
Since , I do not know any way to connect VB forms on the web, I can assure, ASP will do all the job for you.
There is no different connection string..
You need a IIS server, SQL Server. I advice you to install IIS and then type "http://localhost/" in the URL ( Address bar in Internet explorer). You will get ASP help. You need to read manual for ADO also, refer MSDN.
Best way to connect using a ODBC connection,
So set up a ODBC connection for your SQL Server - Database(Ex: DSN=testSQL)
Create Coonection as follows
<%
Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.Open "DSN=testSQL",<username>,<password>
Rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Resultset")
Rs.Open SQL,Conn,3,3,1
'''''''''''''''''' Do your work
Rs.Close
Conn.Close
Happy programming

With SQL Server 2000, I can execute the following SQL command:
select * from table1 select * from table2
The output contains two record sets, one for each select statement. But if I do this with Oracle or MS Access (via ODBC connections), I got syntax errors. The question is, what is the correct way to execute a SQL command with two or more select statements? Is it supported by Oracle? Is there a way to get around it?
Thanks.
P.S. I know the problem is not with ODBC itself because I can do this with SQL Server 2000 via ODBC connection.

you have to use ';' character to separate SQL statements

Thanks. I tried it, did not work. I also tried "\n" and "\r\n" without success.

if both tables are identical, you can use
'Select * from tab1
UNION
Select * from tab2'
in fact you can use the UNION statement whenever querys return a identical resultset.

hi everyone,
ım using .net and sql server 2005, ı have a report project and this project have parameters.think that like "primary school" and "high school fields". sometimes, ı want to filter outputs with two parameters, and sometimes ı want to filter with just one parameter. thats the time that ı have problems. when ı pass only a parameter, ı want that this report doesnt care with the second parameter. but, it understands it (param1=something_ı_want, param2=null). then it searches for null values in second parameter and as an output, ı have nothing.
do you know how can ı fix that problem, how can ı say to this report "dont care with second parameter, ı only ask for first one"? 
thanks for your help,
Ali Sapancı

i think u r using crystal report,better you pass recordset to the report at runtime. At run time you can frame your SQL as you want and create the recordset and assign that record set to the report. that will be very flexible than using the parameters in report

Look up ntext, text and image in SQL books online. These types will let you store data blobs limited only by the storage space on the server. They do have limits on the types of queries you can run on them so make sure they fit your needs.

Use an ADO.Net parameter to pass the data in rather then building the SQL dynamically. If you have to build dyanmic sql, '' gets translated to ', so 'father''s' is stored as father's. This is typically done with a call to Replace("'", "''")

thanx for reply...
but i wanna store in database ' father's ' not ' father"s '
i think u understand my point..
thanx

That's what I told you how to do. '' is a string escape code for ' in sql just like \t for tab in C or "" for " in VB.

Yup, at least that is Standard-SQL, should work with most Databases, for shure with SQL Server and Oracle.
You could try it out from Enterprise Manager or Query Analyser by raising a INSERT statement from there.
