  • RE: Replication 2005 -> 2000 as a fallback scenario

    There are so many reasons there could be such a size difference. There are a lot of "things" in SQL 2005 that causes a database restored from 2000 to...

  • RE: Cannot see or change logon names in SQL 2005

    Wait a minute. Did I read that right? You can't make any changes with the SA account either?

    Have you checked the Server's Event Log (Security) to see what...

  • RE: Cannot see or change logon names in SQL 2005

    Check with your Active Directory Admin to see how the Windows Account is set up. Does it require the password to be changed on a regular basis?

    Most likely, it...

  • RE: Automating database restore

    We did it in a scripted job. Unfortunately, we use Litespeed for our backups, so posting my code wouldn't help you unless you also use Litespeed. Basically, though,...

  • RE: DBCC SHRINKFILE is not working as expected ??

    Oh, and regarding the BACKUP LOG... Truncate_Only option...

    Under the simple recovery model, performing a checkpoint removes the inactive part of the log without making a backup copy. This truncates the...

  • RE: DBCC SHRINKFILE is not working as expected ??

    This is what BOL has to say regarding TruncateOnly:

    TRUNCATEONLY

    Releases all free space at the end of the file to the operating system but does not perform any page movement...

  • RE: Database Missing

    Do you actually have permissions to see ALL the databases on the servers? It could be, if you're not using a SysAdmin account, that you just can't see it,...

  • RE: Start Debug tries to build project???

    PD,

    It's set to false. But it doesn't change the fact that I can't set the Deployment Utility at all for the SSRS project, which is the problem. The...

  • RE: Start Debug tries to build project???

    That's a nice little trick, Frank. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't quite work for my setup. Apparently when you put an SSRS project in a solution with an...

  • RE: Conditional Split failing to catch bad date

    Shaun,

    I think you might be missing the point slightly.

    I don't need parens around the first part of the statement because that statement will always be true and I want it...

  • RE: Conditional Split failing to catch bad date

    The code is correct, however, I think (and I haven't had a chance to test it yet because I'm solving other problems) the issue is the difference between the datatype...

  • RE: How do I check result from stored procedure in "if not exists"

    I'm not sure a function is needed for an insert. The left outer join suggestion is a good one, though.

    Usually what I do is...

    Insert into MyTable (col1, col2, col3)

    (Select...

  • RE: Start Debug tries to build project???

    FYI: Todd's solution worked for getting rid of the #13119 error message on the toolbox.

    Of course, it took a while for VS to reinitialize the toolbox after I...
