Don't specify the name of the MDF file. Specify the name of the database - SQL Server should already know about it.

Still doesnt work... Changed the .mdf, removed the NETSDK, put back the NETSDK, etc. Still the same error.
There are a lot of people who ended up doing things wrongly, even if they had the best of intentions at the beginning. Then again, there is no guarantee the words they said were conveyed as they originally were intended to be. That's because those on the receiving end only hear what they want to hear.

Open the SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration. Navigate to the instance of SQL Server that you are interested in. In Database Engine click on Connections and select Allow Remote connections.
I tried but it didnt work.
SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration --> Services and Connections --> (Under SQLEXPRESS -> DATABASE ENGINE -> REMOTE CONNECTIONS) Local and remote connections --> Using both TCP/IP and named pipes --> Apply --> OK.
Service --> Stop --> Start --> Apply --> OK.
Could it possibly be something wrong with my script? rpcEmpDirectory is my Repeater control.

I am having some difficulties getting my report to work properly. I am connected to an Access database. If i have all my links as inner joins then the report will show up but incorrectly. I asked another person about the problem and he said to change to outer left joins. I did that and i get "Query Engine Error" and it shows the path to the report. I basically need to show some information about a customer and their transactions. The problem is that when there are no transactions then no customer information shows up at all. In this case i would like to show the customer name, id, phone number etc without the transactions. The user would have to be able to specify which customers to show either by specifing a range of last names or a range of Customer ID's. Any help would be appreciated.

hi,
i want to fetch a data from the table which i have to give dynamically in my stored procedure
The thing I m stucked on is
---declaring a variable to hold table name
declare @TableName nvarchar(50)
--here i m setting the tablename for example my actual situation it will come from . result of queries prior to this
@Tablename='Annotationproperty'
--Select particular column from particular table for this row
select propertyID from @TableName where UserID=1
It gives an error that Must declare the table variable "@TableName"
So how I can give a dynamic table name in my sql query or is there some alternate way for this.
waiting ur replies
thanx
sandeep

As you have found, you cannot use a parameter as a table name. You need to build a dynamic SQL string and execute it.
You can do this:
DECLARE @sql nvarchar(4000);
SET @sql = 'SELECT * FROM ['+@TableName+']';
EXEC(@aSQLstring)
So, you need to build a string containing the whole SQL Statement and then execute it. However, be aware that this is prone to mallicious attack if you are not careful. Always verify that the contents of @TableName actually contain the name of a table in your database before performing an EXEC(@sql) by doing something like this
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = @TableName)
BEGIN
-- Put your code here
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- Put your error handling code here. The table does not exist!
END
Finally, declaring @TableName as varchar(50) is potentially going to cause errors. If you are holding the table name in the variable declare it at sysname or nvarchar(128), e.g.
DECLARE @TableName sysname
Does this help?

hi
Colin Angus Mackay
Can u please help me in my other problem too. I m doing as u told , now i want to store the result of the exec (@sqlQuery) into a variable @TempColumnValue of type nvarchar(100)
Note: In my case exec (@sqlQuery) always returns a single value
example:
declare @sqlquery varchar(100)
declare @TempColumnValue nvarchar(50)
set @sqlQuery = 'select @TempColumnValue = firstname from usertable where userid=1'
exec (@sqlQuery)
but this gives error 'Must declare the scalar variable "@TempColumnValue"'.
Is there any other way to get it done
waiting ur response!
thanx
sandeep

Yes, but it is an awkward solution.
You need to insert the result of the EXEC(@sqlQuery) into a temporary table, then get the value from the table
INSERT #MyTempTable EXEC(@sqlQuery);
SELECT @TempColumnValue = MyTempColumn FROM #MyTempTable

Hi.
I am jawwad Khan From Pakistan.
I am using visual basic.NET 2005
While programming the database we were used to use the Filter property of the Recordset to select the records satisfying certain criteria.
i.e
dim rs as recordset<br />
.....<br />
......<br />
rs.filter="CustomerID=" & textbox1.text
suppose we have a datagridview showing data from a certain dataset. How can we filter the dataset and show the data in the datagrid.
i am not using the datasource or any binding control.
i want every thing to be done through code.

Retrieving old password and keep it in a variable or session.
use the condition stmt in the asp.net. For eg:
if txtpass.text="" then
cmd.parameter.add("@password",session("pass"))
else
cmd.parameter.add("@password",txtpass.text)
end if
Hope this will help to solve your prob.

Simple way:
create procedure update_user
@user_name nvarchar(20),
@password nvarchar(20),
@firstname nvarchar(20),
@lastname nvarchar(20)
as
if @password is null or @password=''
update Users set firstname=@firstname, lastname=@lastname where user_name=@username
else
update Users set firstname=@firstname, lastname=@lastname, password=@password where user_name=@username
|
|
|
|
|
if @password = '' set @password = null
update Users
set [password] = isnull(@password, [password])
etc.

When using the "Data Source Configuration Wizard" you eventually get to a "Add Connection" dialog box. It has a drop-down box for "Server Name". I do not get any choices for the server name - why not? Next to the "Server Name" there is a "Refresh" button, but this does not help either.
Note - I have both sqlexpress and mssqlserver database engines opened. The micrsoft help does state: "Local SQL Server Express instances are not listed in the listing of available data sources." So I would at least expect my MSSQLSERVER database engine to appear?

Which ADO version first became a ".NET" version? And what is the current version of ADO.NET called - is it ADO version 2.8?

ADO.NET started with version 1.0 - There is not a direct upgrade path as the two are separate products that do more or less the same thing. Classic ADO is no longer updated.

Please correct me if I am wrong on the following (summarizes ADO versions vs ADO.NET versions, and response from Colin above!)
* Most importantly: ADO and ADO.NET are different products, ADO.NET is not an upgrade of ADO. This can be confusing because they both have "ADO" in the name, but they are still different products.
* The ADO.NET product is not an upgrade in version numbers from the ADO product.
* ADO latest version seems to be 2.8 and ADO will no longer be updated. A book on ADO 2.5 is of limited value for using ADO.NET!
* ADO.NET versions correspond to .NET framework versions? For example .NET 1.0, 1.1, 2.0 are the more-major versions of .NET that have been released.
* ADO is often referred to as classic ADO
