Access is an aplication.
SQL server (express) is an OLE database server. That means it is made to handle calls from other programs.
OLE = Object Linking and Embedding. A Microsoft technology which allows you to link elements from different applications within each other.

Hello,
I'm new to database programming. I'm currently reading Pro ADO.NET 2.0 from Apress. The book has been great so far, but when he get's to his first example, he supplies a script file to set up a simple data source. So, i have this .sql file that i don't know what to do with. when I double click it, it just opens in notepad. Yes, i'm a doofus. please help me! 
I'm running a local instance of sql server 2005 standard.
thanks!

Hi Ian. If you're running Sql Server 2005, you should have access to the Query Analyzer program, yes? Open the .sql file in Query Analyzer, then execute it (F5 will do it)
|
|
|
|

i can't find the query analyzer. I'm going to reinstall and give that a shot. Thanks!

SQL Server 2005 does not come with Query Analyser. That was a feature of SQL Server 2000.

Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Connect to the SQL Server
In the tree on the left open the databases folder
Right click on the database you want to query and select New Query...
In the main pane you can now type SQL. You can execute the SQL by pressing F5 or using the Execute button.
Does this help?

The system already has a default instance of MSDE2000 installed. I would liket to upgrade this to a default instance of SQL server 2000. Is this possible without uninstalling the MSDE? The SQL installation asks me for an instance name and disables the default instance (since it already exists in MSDE)??

Thanks for the reply Alomgir.
Can you pls elaborate? I think updated.colname will give the value after the execution of query. How can I get the previous value, so that I can compare both.

Shah Adarsh.

I got the answer . deleted table contains the old record and the inserted table contains the newer one for update operation trigger.

FOR SOAP

WEBMETHOD 'GetProductList'
(NAME = 'AdventureWorks.Dbo.GetProductList'),

An error ('0x80070057') occurred while attempting to register the

Hi,
I'm using update trigger for inserting a record in a table(say table2) when the value of certain column(Column2) is changed in table1. My code executes UPDATE query on table1 everytime when any column is updated.
My SP is something like
UPDATE table1 SET Column1 = @Column1, Column2 = @Column2
WHERE ID = @ID
I have checked the following condition in Trigger
IF UPDATE(Column2)
INSERT INTO table2...........
So even if Column1 is updated the INSERT query in trigger will be fired.
So the record is inserted into table2 everytime the update query is executed on table1, irrespective of which column has changed.
Regards,
Shah A

As far as I can see in you UPDATE statement, both Column1 and Column2 are updated, so Column2 is always updated. Even if you put back the same value in Column2, as far as SQL is concerned, it is updated.

Yes but how can I compare the previous and current values for Column2 in the trigger to know that it has changed.
Thanks for the reply Marilyn.

I'm trying to create a view from the Visual Studio Server Explorer. One table I want to include belongs to a different database. When creating a view it only allows you to pick tables and views from within the database your working in. How can I pick a table from a different database for my view?
Thanks for any help on the matter.

Hi there. You can fully qualify each table with the syntax database.schema.table. For example, to fully qualify the Categories table in the Northwind database, you can use Northwind.dbo.Categories.
|
|
|
|
|
How do you do that within the Server Explorer? Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
Does it work to make sure "Show SQL Pane" is turned on, then type in the fully qualified name in the sql itself?
