Re: Transfer local sql database to web-server

1. Easy method would be to take a backup, upload it and restore.

OR

2. Use database management tools like Red Gate tools www.red-gate.com[^]

OR

3. Generate DDL, DML scripts, upload and run it on destination server.

Thanks for your reply.

But is it possible to restore from a backup when I do not have administrative rights on the web-server? I just have the user-account with dsn information.

Secondly, if I use the DDL / DML scripts, how I can them from my virtual folder on the website?

Thanks again.

You need necessary permission in database. First check if your hosting company lets you connect vi EM. Then FTP your backup file to your folder and use EM to restore it.

Does your host have any web based data management tools? I doubt they'd let you run isql/osql.

You want the last number of days right? How about this?

SELECT tbl.DateColumn
FROM tbl
WHERE tbl.DateColumn Between Date() And DateAdd("d",-7,Date());

I don't know what an IRR value is. If you have a calculation for this then it would help.

VS2005 with SQL Server 2000

Hi
Is there any reason I could not use VS2005 with SQL Server 2000. I have just started at a new organisation and they already have SQL Server 2000 (with no plans to upgrade). They don't, however, have any development tools, so I am looking at using VS2005.

Any input would be greatfully accepted.

I'm in need of some sql help

SELECT P1.name, P2.name , J.text FROM person p1, person p2, job J WHERE P1.persID = J.creatorID AND P2.persID = J.responsibleID AND J.id = 1

the above statement does not return any rows if the job J has null in the responsible field. But I want it to return an empty string for P2.name in that case. Is that possible. Would be thankful for any help!

You need an OUTER join. Start with this query.

SELECT     p1.name as p1name, isNULL(p2.name, '') as p2name , J.text<br />
FROM         person p1 INNER JOIN<br />
                      job J ON p1.persID = J.creatorID LEFT OUTER JOIN<br />
                      person p2 ON J.responsibleID = p2.persID<br />
WHERE     (J.id = 1)

<br />
SELECT Description, COUNT(DISTINCT id_stud)<br />
   FROM Student,School<br />
   ecc...<br />
   ecc...<br />

When i run this code an error appear. It says Syntax Error near Distinct...

Any suggestion?

Thank You

Post the complete query. You need to have a GROUP BY along with JOINs in your query b/c of an aggregate function.

^{if (this == this) thow this;}

ventomito30-Nov-05 9:35

the complete query is:

<br />
SELECT Description,COUNT(DISTINCT id_Stud)<br />
FROM Studenti, Istituti<br />
WHERE Studenti.id_Istituto = Istituti.id_Istituto<br />
GROUP BY Description;<br />

But the Distinct syntax is wrong i think...

Syntax looks fine, look for field name typos.

What do you mean?
I wrote it on Access too but it doesn't work..
I use an OdbcDataSet to retrive this information..maybe it's a DataSet's problem, i dont know!

Post your tables structure here.

ok, i have 5 tables:

Studenti(student):
fields -> CodiceStud(PK),NomeStud,CognStud,DataNascita,Classe,
CodiceIstituto(FK)

Istituti(school):
fields -> CodiceIstituto(PK),Denominazione,Indirizzo,Telefono

Professori(teachers):
fields -> CodiceProf(PK),CognProf,NomeProf,CodiceIstituto(FK),
CodiceManif(FK)

Manifestazioni(Competition):
fields -> CodiceManif(PK),Descrizione,Luogo,DataInizio

Iscrizioni(inscriptions):
fields -> CodiceStud(FK),CodiceManif(FK),DataInizio

The "inscriptions" table result from the N:N relation between student and competition.
The tables i need for the query are student and school only.
With this query i want to have as result the list of the school with the number of students who take part in one of the competition.
PS: Without the Distinct function, if a student take part in more then one competition he will be counted more time...

You could start with this rather not-so-elegant query and then fine tune it to your taste.

Select i.Denominazione, count(s.CodiceStud)
From Istituti i INNER JOIN Studenti s ON i.CodiceIstituto = s.CodiceIstituto
Where Exists
(
Select DISTINCT Iscrizioni.CodiceStud
From Iscrizioni
Where Iscrizioni.CodiceStud = s.CodiceStud
)

Aliases for table names.

You can define as alias like this:

SELECT * FROM MyTable t
INNER JOIN OtherTable o ON ....

where the alias comes immediately after the occurrance of the table name in the FROM or JOIN clause. I prefer to make this more explicit by writing it like this:

SELECT * FROM MyTable AS t
INNER JOIN OtherTable AS o ON ....
