Thanks for that.
I've found an alternative solution which is to use the Access Documentor on the Queries. Export the results into a text file and then do a good old Find in Notepad.

Hi, all:
I have a master-detail relationship in my MS Access DB. In my WinForm application, I also created same Master-Detail relationship in my dataset. When I delete a row in my datagrid, the entries in the detail table is also deleted in the dataset due to the relationship. After an user finishs editing the data, I call daMaster.Update and then daDetail.Update. I got the DBConcurrencyException when trying to update the detail table. I think the reason is as following: when the master table is updated, it deletes the row marked with "Deleted". Since the relationship is setup in the MS Access DB, it deletes the entries in the detail table of Access DB. When the second Update is called, the record is gone and exception is thrown.
How do I fix this problem? I can not change the order of update, otherwise it will break the new entries ( must exist in the Master table first ). I guess that if I take all the relationship out in the MS Access DB, it will work fine, but I think that probably is not good thing to do.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

I'm currently using ADO/Access with ATL and msjet sometimes crashes on some systems. I can't reproduce the damn bug and I'm starting to consider an alternative to Access, like XML or any other solution, where I could provide my own dll and make sure every user gets the current one.
Or is there a distributable dll available for ADO/Access?
Thanks!

Access isn't necessarily the problem. Have you tried ADOX?
As far as databases go, a fast, easy to use, but missing features alternative is MySQL. I like it a lot except when I need transactions or stored procedures  (though I believe both are on the road map). The price certainly is right.

I find the ways of managing data warehouse's(analysis server) metadata is to interop adomd in .net framework.Do you have another ways?

I went through some of my colleague's (who left for another project) SQL code and I encountered the following where clause (part of it, actually):
where ...
convert(varchar(25), td.CreationDate, 111) >= (getutcdate() - @NumOfDays) and
convert(varchar(25), td.CreationDate, 111) <= (getutcdate())
...
This is part of a larger where and it narrows the search to rows younger than @NumOfDays days.
The problem I see here is that the convert(varchar(25), td.CreationDate, 111) must be executed on every row in the table (Am I right here?). This query will tend to become slower each day as the table grows (and it is expected to grow a couple thousands of rows per day).
Am I right to say that this query will eventually come to a crawl or an I just smoking some bad stuff?
NOTE: td.CreationDate does not have to be converted to its date part only. The time part can stay.
Would it be right to replace it by:
td.CreationDate >= dateadd(day, -@NumOfDays, getutcdate()) and
td.CreationDate <= getutcdate()
And I even suspect that
td.CreationDate >= dateadd(day, -@NumOfDays, getutcdate())
would be sufficient since the td.CreationDate field cannot be in the future (or I am missing something here).

Why do you ask, you already gave the answer. To speed things further up, you can create a non-unique index on td.CreationDate. Always check the execution plan on suspicious statements, it will tell you the cost of the statement. Twiddle around till you find the cheapest, and youre as happy as a cloud. Performance differences can make up a factor between 2 and several thousand times faster.

Tx for your answer, I just wanted confirmation on this.

Is there any way that SQL server can call any application running on the same machine. I have SQL server runing on a machine. I also got another application running on the machine. I want that SQL server to call this running application. Is it possible ??

I'm a veteran web apps developer who is now interested in building more desktop-oriented apps using C#/.NET, since it provides such an elegant framework for doing so.
I'm quite experienced in using sql server in all types of web applications with all types of technologies, however, what I'm not so familiar with is using MSDE as an alternative to access in stand-alone windows apps.
What I'm looking for are some "beginners" guides on how this is done.
How do I package a sql server database into an MSDE db and then package it up with my desktop apps so they're "stand-alone" from a database server?
How do I transfer an existing sql server database into an msde db and use it separately from a database server?
I've only so far been able to find very vague examples on the web on how to do these things.
Thanks in advance!!

emm... If you are familiar with MS SQL, then msde is not a trouble for you, except you does not have GUI interface to manage it... but the best thing is you can always use MS SQL Enterpise Manager to manage it.

MSDE IS Sql server, just with fixed tuning optimized for about 5 users, 2GB limit on Database size, no replication publication, no OLAP, etc. and no GUI tools.
The MSDE redist will install SQL server on your clients machine. The silent install has a lot of assumed defaults (C so you may want to study how to modify the redist install scripts to customise the installation.

MSDE database == SQL database (same data files...): You can create databases with SQL developer (or any other "full" edition), detach them and have your install process attach them to the new server, aternatively you could export scripts and create the client db by reading the scripts during your install (osql is included with MSDE).
Restoring a backup also works...

I am creating tables dynamically using stored procedures, and would like to use a parameter variable as the table_name identifier. The SPs are implemented in T-SQL scripts. I am currently using literal identifiers as usual, then renaming the tables via sp_rename. For example (with SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON):
CREATE PROC spCreateTable (@TableName sysname)
AS
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE "_TempTableName_" (
)
EXEC sp_rename '_TempTableName_', @TableName --rename to desired name
END
GO
Does anyone know how I could use @TableName directly or indirectly in the CREATE TABLE statement?
|
|
|
|
|
CREATE PROC spCreateTable (@TableName sysname)
AS
BEGIN
declare @Tb NVarchar(80)
select @tb = N'[dbo].[' + @tb + N']'
CREATE TABLE @Tb(
) ON [PRIMARY]
END
GO
works for me...

That was what I originally did, but I keep getting invalid identifier errors with SQL Server 2K. I was hoping this was just something specific to T-SQL, as opposed to the syntaxes I am more familiar with. There must be a switch I'm incorrectly setting somewhere, since your script files parse correctly. Thanks for confirming my original approach is not what I need to change.
Cheers

Hmmm.. This works fine with SQL 2k for me, However I usually don't change the Quoted Identifiers from the default (which I believe is off...). I always rebuild the table name into an NVARCHR local variable and delimit with the []. I think whwn we went from SQL7 to 2k the table owner part also became necessary [dbo].
The invalid identifiesr error suggests either white space or illegal characters in the name...

Hi all - I have ten application servers all running mdac 2.6 RTM. Each of the client's applications are running fine.
However, I also have an in-house VB utility that needs to be ran periodically. When this is ran, it fails with an "Unable to load dll" error.
I tracked this down to the msadodc.ocx (ADO Data Control). The project compiles fine on 9/10 servers, but on this one I can't even add the ado control to the toolbox.
I've tried the following steps in vain trying to fix this problem:
1. Unregistered & Reregistered the file (successfully)
2. Reviewed & checked for dependencies using the dependency walker.
3. Utilized the MDAC Component checker for inconsistencies.
4. Verified all registry entries & GUIDs.
5. Ran the VBCli.exe to ensure all development licenses were OK.
All servers are running VB Enterprise sp5.
I don't want to upgrade MDAC to 2.7 as this may cause problems with existing applications...ANY IDEAS AT ALL WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!
Thanks!

I noticed that when I use Addnew() followed by Put_Value()and don't call Update(), the values are stored in the database. I'm using VC++ for this. Any ideas as to why this is.
Thanks

Oracle Listener
Hi
when trying to connect oracle 6i to 8i on the same machine, i'm getting this error message:
ORA-12224:TNS: no listener
i think i have to turn the listener on.
How can i check the status of the listener?
How can i turn it on?
i'm running Win98.
thank you

What do you mean by connect 6i to 8i? If you mean using 6i client to connect to 8i server, then won't work - need as a minimum 8 client.
