This is not supported. The SQL Server 2005 tools cannot show, modify or create diagrams in a SQL Server 2000 database.

That's it, Why can't i use 2 DataReader with same connection? How can i do multiple queries from the same connection.

Thanks.

Just open a second identical connection to run the second command.

Hi, i just did it but that second connection is what i have been trying to avoid. I remember that with ADODB in VB6 i was able to do multiple command and reads from the same connection.

Thanx, it works this way anyway.

ADO.NET is not ADODB.

If you have a connection you can execute multiple commands on it. Also, keep in mind, that idenctical connection strings will use the connection pool.

But not at the same time, which is what the OP wanted to do.

Understood.

I was trying to use only one connection to gain performance but now i replaced the second connection with a subquery in a command of the original connection, check this tasty and parameter rich query:

"select SUM(t1.total - COALESCE(t2sum,0)) from ventas as t1 left join (select venta, SUM(cantidad_pagada) as t2sum from pagos_ventas where fecha_pago='" + CDC.Global.SetDBdate(hoy) + "' and metodo_pago<>1 and metodo_pago<>7 group by venta) as t2 on t2.venta=t1.id where t1.nula=0 and t1.pagada=0 and t1.fecha='" + CDC.Global.SetDBdate(hoy) + "'"

Bye.

I don't see any parameters in your query - What I do see is lots of SQL Injection that is ripe for attack.

A parameter is something like this:

SELECT * FROM Table WHERE something = @Parameter

@Parameter is the parameter.

Multiple Active Result Sets (MARS). Probable you need ADO.Net 2.0.

I am not sure, but I am trying to work this out but if I do a CREATE SCRIPT SELECT on a TABLE and execute it using SQL Server Management Studio Express, will it lock access to it for transactional or for update purposes? Like a read commted? or am I going off track here as I am not completely sure about SQL stuff.... Confused | :confused:

Have you installed service pack 1 for SQL Server 2005.

This seems to make the front end stable.

Look where you want to go not where you don't want to crash.

Sounds like you're up a creek without a paddle. If you are missing any of the internal tables/objects, the database is pretty much dust. Do you have a backup of the database somewheres?

revert to most recent backup, or prepare to empty your wallet..

or try going through MS details on how to troubleshoot it.

Return 0 when no rows [modified]

Hi, how can i return a 0 if my query returns no results?

I'm trying to do this because i have a subquery inside a query but if the subquery returns no values then the main query also returns nothing.
I'm using MySQL 5.

Thanks in advance.

sounds like you are using an inner join between your queries? try a left or right join.

or post you sql and you may get a better response

Hi, you're right, there's a inner join inside my query, check it out, hope you understand the query and the problem:

select SUM((t1.valor + t1.total) - t2sum) from consultas as t1 inner join (select consulta, SUM(cantidad_pagada) as t2sum from pagos_consultas where fecha_pago='2006-07-05' group by consulta) as t2 on t2.consulta=t1.id where t1.nula=0 and t1.pagada=0 and t1.fecha='2006-07-05'

I had no idea about left and right join so i went to http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_join.asp and took a read, the left join is the one for me! but this will return NULL in the second table when there're no matches and if you look at my query in "(t1.valor + t1.total) - t2sum" i do a " - " operation and i cant reduce a number with a null value or can i? i must replace that null for a 0.

Thanx man.

isnull( field, newValue) works in SQL Server and NVL in Oracle.

you can use also use the coalesce() function to remove the Null value.

eg.

replace - t2sum

with

- coalesce(t2sum,0)

is a nice little function is coalesce as you can list as many variables as you want, it works through from left to right until it finds a non null value and uses that.

sounds like its the same as the isNull() function mentioned in previous post.

its a SQL server only function though!
