Introduction

The QASharp was developed for those using the MSDE (Microsoft Desktop Engine). This project is meant to provide a tool similar to query analyzer which can be used to execute queries, create tables, and do all other common database activities.

All suggestions, apprehensions, criticisms are welcome.

Credits

SqlDBHandler.cs by http://www.aspenterprisemanager.com/.

Functionality Supported

  • Create new query.
  • Save existing query.
  • Open existing query.
  • Execute queries.
  • Multiple query output window.
  • Connect to different data source.
  • Flicker free Syntax highlighting of major keywords.
  • Added Show Errors in Help menu.
  • Object browser.
  • Data/Stored procedure editing functionality.
  • Printing queries.

Configuration settings to be made

In order for the application to work, make the following changes in the app.config file, in the keys listed below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="server" value="(local)" /> 
    <add key ="database" value="master" />
    <add key="uid" value="sa"/>
    <add key="pwd" value=""/> 
  </appSettings>
</configuration>
Keys Values
Server The server to connect to
Database The initial database to connect to
Uid User ID
Pwd Password

Usage

  • Select a database.
  • Create a new document by clicking on New.
  • Type in the query (for multiple queries, add a “GO” keyword after each query).
  • Press “F5” to execute query, or click on the Execute icon on the toolbar.
  • To select a different server:
    • Click on File-> Connect. Enter the required parameters, and click on Connect.

The main code changes from V1.2 to V1.3
