  • RE: Unlimited columns

    Not in SQL Server.  The limit is 1,024 columns per table in SQL 2000.

  • RE: What is most efficient (Task & Connections)

    Lee,

    Tasks using the same connections are run serially because only one task at a time can use a connection.  If you want to have tasks run in parallel you must have...

  • RE: SQL.LOG too big

    Jessica,

    Can you elaborate on what log file you're concerned about?  Is it a database transaction log or a SQL Server error log?

  • RE: Can replication supply a hot failover?

    Me too.  Good luck with this, Stephanie.  It sounds like you're suffering for someone else's screwup.

  • RE: Migrate 2000 Database to 2005

    Those terms aren't used in SQL2000, so don't feel bad about that.  BTW, there are lots of good articles about migrating and upgrading to SQL2005 on this site and on...

  • RE: DTS Task Sequence Problem

    Tasks are listed in Disconnected Edit in the order they were created, not in the order they execute.  Workflow controls the order of execution.  Is that what you're worried about?

  • RE: Migrate 2000 Database to 2005

    "irregardless"?!?

  • RE: user tables in master db

    I don't think developers need access to master.  Hopefully they aren't members of sysadmin!

  • RE: Can replication supply a hot failover?

    Replication provides a warm standby with no automatic failover, though I seem to remember a product from CA that might provide automatic failover.  Clustering and Database Mirroring are the only...

  • RE: Access to Prod Database SQL Server to developers in order to Work with DTS

    We use the procedure that Thomas described in our shop.  DTS packages are treated the same as stored procedures.  Developers and users test them in dev and test, then the...

  • RE: DTS Package Execution (From Job)

    Does the account that runs SQL Server Agent have access?  The package will be run in the security context of that account and it must be a domain account to...

  • RE: How do I import data from a single flat file into multiple tables???

    Your best bet with DTS is to import the file into a staging table that has columns corresponding to the logical fields in the flat file.  Then, you can you...
