How to implement a database server , in client-server local network,(we are using visual basic 6.0 and sqlserver 2000).
The problem is ,if the connection is not available than we can't get the master datas from the server.
If it is .net it is no problem. because it support connection less database.
But if we use visual basic 6.0 , what is the way to persist the data from server after terminate the connection.
Please can anybody help
Thanks in Advance

I think you have a bit of a misunderstanding of what connectionless means. While your program is running, data can be persisted into memory. If the application stops and restarts, then it needs to get the data again (this is simplified, and doesn't address out of process databases).
While DataSets are designed to be disconnected, it does not follow that .NET is connectionless. If I open a DataReader and don't close it, then we have a connection.
At some point you will need to get the data out of the database and this is where your problem kicks in. In both VB6 and .NET, if you can't get to the database because a connection isn't present then you are stuck.
If you want to store the information in memory, and you can get to it, then you can use exactly the same mechanism for VB6 as for .NET, i.e. you read the data into something that exists for a period of time. It could be that you store a recordset in memory, but however you do it, at some point you will need to persist these changes back into the database server. You will need to consider the implications of stale data and optimistic/pessimistic saves.

I'm trying to use PIVOT instead of CASE but can't make it, what's wrong with the pivot query below?
create table t1 (a int, b char(5))
go
insert t1 values(1, 'SVE')
insert t1 values(1, 'FIN')
insert t1 values(1, 'DAN')
insert t1 values(2, 'SVE')
insert t1 values(2, 'FIN')
insert t1 values(3, 'SVE')
select * from t1
a b
----------- -----
1 SVE
1 FIN
1 DAN
2 SVE
2 FIN
3 SVE
(6 row(s) affected)
-- SQL 2000 with case works
select a,
max(case when b='SVE' then b else '' end) as b_sve,
max(case when b='FIN' then b else '' end) as b_fin,
max(case when b='DAN' then b else '' end) as b_dan
from t1
group by a
a b_sve b_fin b_dan
----------- ----- ----- -----
1 SVE FIN DAN
2 SVE FIN
3 SVE
(3 row(s) affected)
-- SQL 2005 with pivot, this select doesn't work!
select a,
isnull(['SVE'], '') as b_sve,
isnull(['FIN'], '') as b_fin,
isnull(['DAN'], '') as b_dan
from (select a, b from t1) p
pivot (
max(b) for b in ( ['SVE'], ['FIN'], ['DAN'] )
) pvt;
a b_sve b_fin b_dan
----------- ----- ----- -----
1
2
3

What do you mean by "oleobject"? Is this just binary data?
nikhil1234 wrote: sql mysql oracle which data type i ahve to use for each
In SQL Server binary data can be stored in an image column in SQL Sever 2000 or a varbinary(max) column in SQL Server 2005.
MySQL and Oracle may have their own binary or blob (Binary Large OBject) types.

How to insert videos into database
Praveen

In SQL server you'll need to use one of the BLOB fields like 'image' and save the byte array of the video in here.

Sorry I was able to do it.
I made some silly mistakes.

Hi G to U.R.U.S!
I want to return results based on entries on date range (Date From, Date To), the condition is that when the users doesn't fill up (leave blank) the date range (Date From and Date To), the SP should make use of oldest date and earliest date as date range.
Below is the SP I made which doesn't seem to work, please advice
<br />
(<br />
@DateFrom datetime =null,<br />
@DateTo datetime =null<br />
)<br />
as<br />
begin <br />
<br />
select <br />
PageName,<br />
count(PageName) as [Page Name]<br />
from<br />
PageViews<br />
where <br />
DateEntered > <br />
case when @DateFrom is null then (select convert(char(12),min(DateEntered)) from pageviews)<br />
<br />
else<br />
dateadd(day,-1,@DateFrom) <br />
end <br />
and <br />
DateEntered <<br />
case when @DateTo is null then (select convert(char(12),max(DateEntered)) from pageviews)<br />
else<br />
dateadd(day,1,@DateTo)<br />
end<br />
group by<br />
PageName<br />
order by <br />
[Page Name]<br />
<br />
end<br />
<br />
Thanks

I normally use:
select PageName, count(PageName)
from PageViews
where DateEntered between IsNull(@StartDate, DateEntered)
and IsNull(@EndDate, DateEntered)
group by PageName
order by PageName If either of the date variables is null then the IsNull function uses the value of the DateEntered column (and so the expression evaluates to true).
Regards
Andy

Hi Andy,
You nailed it, I have some question though, when i put in a blank date how will I know from these statement that the sp will pick on the oldest and latest date?
<br />
where DateEntered between IsNull(@StartDate, DateEntered)<br />
and IsNull(@EndDate, DateEntered)<br />
Please advice
Thanks
Dom

There are really two approaches that you can take. The first is this:
SELECT
PageName,
COUNT(PageName) AS PageCount
FROM
PageViews
WHERE
DateEntered BETWEEN
COALESCE(@StartDate, (SELECT MIN(DateEntered) FROM PageViews)) AND
COALESCE(@EndDate, (SELECT MAX(DateEntered) FROM PageViews))
GROUP BY PageName, DateEntered
While this works, it is largely inefficient because you are asking the system to re-evaluate the MIN/MAX every time. A better approach would be to retrieve these values initially, and then use them in your procedure like this:
DECLARE @MinDate DATETIME, @MaxDate AS DateTime
SELECT @MinDate = MIN(DateEntered), @MaxDate = MAX(DateEntered) FROM PageViews
SELECT
PageName,
COUNT(PageName) AS PageCount
FROM
PageViews
WHERE
DateEntered BETWEEN
COALESCE(@StartDate, @MinDate) AND
COALESCE(@EndDate, @MaxDate)
GROUP BY PageName

It cheats a bit - and so doesn't require knowledge of the oldest and latest dates.
As a worked example: If the @StartDate is blank and the @EndDate is "1 Mar 2007" then the where clause is equivalent to:
where DateEntered between DateEntered and '1 mar 2007' Pete's second answer (using the Coalesce function) is exactly the same. I tend to use "IsNull" because its easier to spell
Hope that helps.

Hi
For date filtering, try this:
From front-end, pass default value as Min: 01/01/1900 and Max: 01/01/9999 if date values are not entered or blank
In your select statement, add this statement
IsNull(DateCol,'01/01/1900') >= Convert(nvarchar(12),@FromDate,101) AND
IsNull(DateCol,'01/01/9999') <= Convert(nvarchar(12),@ToDate,101)
Change date format from '101' to anything based on the format (whether MM/dd/yyyy or dd/MM/yyyy) you are storing in the database.
IsNull function on the left side is required as if you are allowing NULL values for the date field.
That 's it.
Rate this message. Thank you. Harini

Hi
How can we can make DB2 and SQL server communicate with each other. It's not a kind of datamigration, these were need to be updating each other on regular basis.
Thanking u in advance,

I have a service (which I have written in C#) that I want to run on 2 different computers however they will both be accessing the same database.
Is there a way to tell when one computer is writing to the database so I can stop the other from writing to it at the same time to avoid contention issues?

It would help to know what kind of database... Access, SQL Server, ...

In that case, no, you don't have to worry about it. SQL Server maintains order on its own. Just keep in mind that the "last write" will win.

I've been trying to consolidate/reuse some business logic in a recent project and doing so would require me (within a MS-SQL 2000 stored procedure) to get a dataset from a stored procedure and aggregate some data. Is there a way to get a dataset from a stored procedure and put it in a temporary table? This is not an output variable, just the regular output dataset. I'm using Microsoft SQL 2000.
Help please!
USE PD9
DECLARE @RC int
DECLARE @datebegin varchar(10)
DECLARE @dateend varchar(10)
SET @datebegin = '01/01/2007'
SET @dateend = '01/15/2007'
--this is a dataset of our sales reps
DECLARE sales_cursor CURSOR
FOR
SELECT DISTINCT
[ABAN8]
FROM
[vF0101_RepDetails]
ORDER BY [ABAN8]
OPEN sales_cursor
DECLARE @an8 int
FETCH NEXT FROM sales_cursor INTO @an8
WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1)
BEGIN
IF (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -2)
BEGIN
-- i'm looping through a dataset of our sales reps
-- now i need to get a dataset from the below sproc
-- loop through that dataset and put it in a temp table
-- the problem is getting the dataset from the next line - HOW??
-- EXEC @RC = [PD9].[dbo].[usp_rs_getSalesShipments] @an8, @datebegin, @dateend
-- print @RC
END
FETCH NEXT FROM sales_cursor INTO @an8
END
CLOSE sales_cursor
DEALLOCATE sales_cursor

You can use:
INSERT INTO #MyTempTable (col1, col2, col3, ..., coln)
EXEC MyStoredProc where the temporary table's column list matches the columns returned in the stored procedures resultset (and their data types).
