  • Pretty easy to DTS the data into your SQL Server and link to it through Access (ODBC).

  • Better do it with a copy first when you have plenty of free time. Things are about to get real different.


    We have met the enemy and he is us.

  • I would like to see some sample MS SQL server standards documentation writing guides or similar...Any guidance in that area would be idea...Also, product review to assist the newbie in different dB task would be awesome...like telling newbies about SQL Compare, etc...

    Thanks,

  • All thats here is very useful hope u keep updating this....

  • Thanks for all the information.  It sure is very helpful to me.

    I just start my job as SQL developer in a small company and I find out they don't have a DBA.  My boss said the company was too small and could not afford a full time DBA so he expected all developers to learn to be a DBA.  Even though I found it was very overwhelming at first to be a developer and DBA at the same time, now I find it very exciting.  There is so much to learn and there is not a boring moment at work.

  • THE RESPONSIBILITY OF DBA IS LARGE.

    YOU CAN BUY SOME GOOD BOOKS TO START YOUR Journey.

    Care fully read all the aspects?

    Whenever a user inserts a record into database(sqlserver), i want to write one trigger such that it fires on a particular date(suppose on sunday) and all the records which have been inserted from monday to saturday should be updated to the server on sunday when the trigger fires.

    Please suggest me

    Thanks in advance

    Best Regards

     

     

  • Dumb  Question:  Can someone direct me to something that tells me how to set up Windows XP to work with SQL.  When I click on Query, up junps a box wanting a server name, etc.  Where do I get that?

  • I'm only a beginner myself, but I think you would want to set this up with a Job rather than with a Trigger. Make a stored procedure that does what you want, and then set the job to run that stored procedure each Sunday. Someone please correct me if this is completely in error.

  • I'd like to see a dummy's guide to assigning permissions to a (new) view for a new user. In particular, defining the logon, creating a group, adding needed permissions for tables/views in other dababases referenced by the view.

    I look forward to your beginning administrators material.

  • Newbie here, to SQL Server 2000 and the forum.

    Prior post glitched/vanished somehow.

    short version, this time:

    SQL 2000.80.2039.0

    Win2K3ServerSP1

    SQL Enterprise Manager "Properties" on a db says that

    transactionlogs for the db are writing to my D: drive,

    but .TRN files (BIG ones!) keep appearing on my C: drive.

    How to fix?

    MANY Thanks!

  • They must by log files for other databases.

    Check the file names and try to find out which database(s) create(s) it.
