This could be a very silly question, but here goes:
Our server is going to be down all weekend because of certain reasons.
Is there a way to move a sql server database onto a local machine?
thanks

Detach/Attach. That'll be the least of your problems however. The real part is to migrate your applications/users to point to the local server until the main one is up.

As the previous post
Detach database
Copy DB files to your local machine
Atach those files
And change the connectionstring to point to the sqlserver instance in your local machine. I hope you are using connectionstrings from a web.config file (for web app) or saved the connectionstrings as a resource (for win app), Otherwise...too bad

listen, use this way instead
use function month()
declare @mydate smalldatetime
set @mydate = '1-6-2005'
select month(@mymonth)
if you run that you get 1
So, code like this:
if month(mydate) <> 8
begin
...
end

Authorisation and authentication
Unless the app/dbms has the right credentials access is denied.

By default, you can't do anything in the database unless you have the permissions to do so.
May be you need to get some introductory knowledge on SQL Server, in which case, get a book.

Hello Friends,
I have got a requirement in which I have an Excel Workbook (latest version) as my source and SQL Server table as my destination. The scenario is that I have similar column names in both - source and destination.
So, now what I have to achieve is, if I insert some value in my excel sheet, then it should get updated in the SQL Server destination table. I have to avoid using SSIS for this.
I am not even sure if there is anyway to do this. I am researching on it and I would appreciate your help if you can also let me know your ideas.
Thank you,

I suggest you use VBA to move the data to SQL. Probably fired by a button on your form.

Hello,
Thank you for you reply. But do you know anyother way rather than using VBA, as Visual Basic is not installed on my local machine and there are only few excel sheets where I have to set this sort of link. So, I want to know if there is some other way to achieve this.
Thank you,

No, but VBA should be installed, its part of Excel.

Ok. Is there any way to check if VBA is installed? And if it is there, then how do I exactly use if to achieve my objective. Can you please provide a brief note about it, as I have not used it before, so......

VBA need not be installed separately - it is part of the MS Office suite, and has always been present, at least since MS Office 97, and also exists in the latest MS Office 2007 version.

Search here[^]?

I found Visual Basic.
I am researching on the code now and how to use it exactly to achieve my objective.
I know google is the place where I can search for it and I am doing that, but still any thoughts from experienced people would be appreciated.
Thank you,
