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.

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
