No I meant DataView that also user SqlDataReader!

Why top make 2 requests into the database when you can just get the container DataView with properties like DataView.Count? So you don't make 2 requests, and yes you put it into memory. GC will take care of calling Dispose or you can do it too.

I wasn't advocating 2 requests. I was suggesting one request with two SQL Statements in it. Something like this:
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM MyTable; SELECT col1, col2, etc FROM MyTable");

Why make two copies in the first place. If it is a large enough set of data that's going to hit memory fairly hard.
[EDIT]
Also, if the code is already written for using a DataReader, why make more modifications than is necessary.

I thought that was 2 requests still! coming back in one SqlDataReader, however SQL still has to make every request between ; character

Nope. One outward request (with two commands in it). One lump of data back. On its return the DataReader splits the lump in to two ResultSets.

Nope, it just sends out the string as given. The SQL Parser on the server will sort it out. It could be further optimised by adding a BEGIN TRANSACTION at the start and an COMIT TRANSACTION at the end, but that optimisation would be on the server end and not really affect communications.

Hello everybody,
I have wrote a database application that connects via ODBC to MS Access databases. After running many SQL queries on the databases, their size grows considerably (a 320kb file can grow to MB sizes). If I run the 'Repair and compress'-operation in Access, the databases shrink back to their expected size.
I tried switching from ODBC to OLEDB, but the problem remained unsolved...
Has anyone had a similar problem with Access databases?
I'd really appreciate if you could help me solve this problem.
Thanks,
paul

Sounds like normal database behaviour to me.
As you perform actions on a database it creates transactions so that the database will be in a consistent state should anything go wrong. These transactions will be appended to the end of the file until you clear out the transaction log, in this case by running "Repair and Compress".

I had no problems in accessing information via Access Database using VB.Net. I created several datagrid programs accessing the MS Access database without an exception. I am just having problems in authenticating a login page that I am trying to use to open a secured program, that continues to point to the ExecuteReader being closed.

I thought of the same explanation.
But how can I solve this problem. Is there an option for the connectstring that I can use to disable the log, or a method to programmatically call "Repair and Compress"?

Can we Pass the Array to the Procedure as a Parameter so as to insert multiple records at a time
Ex. We collected some 15 product when we insert thease in one click in one transaction table by Product(15)

What in the world does "AFAIK" mean!!

it is an acronym for "As Far As I Know"
Anger is the most impotent of passions. It effects nothing it goes about, and hurts the one who is possessed by it more than the one against whom it is directed.

Thanks! That makes sense. Every time I came across this acronym, I would think "hmm, there goes Microsoft again...".
TYFYH (Thank You For Your Help).

As far as I know (AFAIK) this question has nothing to do with databases, SQL or ADO.NET
I honestly believed it was one of the feature within .NET (hence - the reference to microsoft) that I did not know about! Boy, do I feel dumb.

How do I rename a table in SQL Server 2000? I mean by script, I can do it easily enough in the Enterprise Manager.

Helll All
Can anyone guide me about how will ADO connection string for connecting to a named instance Sql server over internet, I am wondering do I need to mention instance name too or not, and if I don't mention named instance what will happen if there are more than one instance of Sql Server running on the same machine (in that case all will have same ip address).
Please guide me and reply ASAP.
I am stuck up...

I wrote this code to create an excel file using data retrieved from either SQL Server
or Microsoft Access. Here is the practice code that I wrote. When you execute the application it will create an excel file with the data from SQL server or Access database which is inserted into the excel worksheet. However, when you examine the cells in Excel you will notice that all the cells that contain text have an apostrophe (' single quote) character at the begining of cell. The cells that have integers or float numbers do not have any ' character at the beining of the cell. I like to know if anyone knows how to fix this issue. What changes do I have to make in order Please take a look at my code and let me know as to how I can fix it. Why does apostrophe get inserted into cells that have text.

As you can see below I am calling various user definded functions. When I removed two of my functions and replaced them with inline sql I gained 6 seconds for my query execution.
<br />
Select * from tableName<br />
dbo.fn_GetParameterSamples(tbl_project.ID," ","0") as ParameterList, <br />
dbo.fn_GetTemplateSamples(tbl_project.ID," ","0") as TemplateList, <br />
(select count(ID) from tbl_samples where tbl_Project.ID = id) as sampleCount,<br />
(SELECT COUNT(id) from tbl_samples where tbl_samples.ProjectID=tbl_Project.ID and isHold != 0 ) as SampleHold,<br />
What I would like to do is replace my other user defined funtions with inline sql(please look below at the sql). I seem to be having some trouble doing this. I would like to add the following line but I keep getting an error(Error 141: A Select statement that assigns a value to a variable must not be combined with data-retrieval operations) is there a way around this error? I believe removing the user defined funtions could improve the performance of my query.
<br />
(Select @ReturnParam = ISNULL(@ReturnParam + ', ','') + tbl_template.type from tbl_samples,tbl_template <br />
where tbl_Samples.projectID = tbl_project.ID and tbl_Samples.ID = tbl_template.sampleID) as TemplateLIst<br />
<br />
