You're explaining what you "want" the software to do, not quite what you're trying to achieve.
One can install Sql Server from the command prompt[^]. That way you could also predefine in which directory the app will be installed.
A word of warning here; you'll be working under the assumptions that you have read/write rights in that location, and that the location exists. Both assumptions would fail on a networked PC here. What's more, most machines already have Sql Server, and it'd be preferable to hook up the database for a new app to one of the existing servers. Your app would fail again if someone moved the database to a different server.
Here's the catch; I'm still wondering why you need to "know" this path. It's defined at install, fine, you could have a custom action in there that writes to the registry where it'll be located. In fact, you can "ask" Sql Server for it's storage- and backup-locations.
What kind of data are you storing in there, and what kind of app are we talking about?

You can't, you can only modify what's mentioned in the article.

You can use Google Translate to go from English to your language. There are no alternatives to the ones mentioned in the documentation.
Hence, you'll have to find another way to do what you need.

On which line?
I suggest you comment out blocks of sql, until you have a working version.

Hi All
I have merged data into a new table say table1 from table2(need to do this every time data comes into table2..Both the tables have following columns Id,Period(which includes date and time)Constraint(flag is only for table1)
Once the data is merged into table1 the data in table2 gets deleted automatically.when a new data comes into table2 it checks whether the period(only date not the time) in table1 and table2 matches..If it gets matched then we update the constraint flag of table1 to "1". then we add this new data from table2 to table1..Then I should remove the old data...what I wanted to do now is remove the data whose contraint flag is 1 from table1
I have given the code what I have done..Can some one help how to proceed
MERGE INTO table1 AS t1
USING table2 AS t2
ON t1.Id=t2.UsagePointId
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET
AND t1.period=t2.period
t1.constraint=0
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (Id, period,constraint)
VALUES (t2.Id,t2.period, 0);
WITH x AS
(
SELECT t1.constraint
FROM table1 AS t1
JOIN table2 AS t2
ON t1.Id=t2.Id
AND t1.period =t2.period
)
UPDATE x
SET constraint=1;
WHERE t1.period AS DATE =upi.t2.period AS DATE

I have the following statment:
SELECT * FROM member_channels WHERE member_channel_address = param_member_channel_address;
that's member_channels where I also have member_channel_id (primary key)
In member_posts, I have member_channel_id..
I want to count total posts linked to member_channel_id and I want to display it as count field in the above statement..
|
|
|
|
|
Something like the following
SELECT *, count(p.member_channel_id) FROM member_channels c, member_posts p
WHERE c.member_channel_address = param_member_channel_address
and c.id = p.member_channel_id
|
|
|
|
|
thanks
but there is one problem.
when member_post has no rows linked to the same member_channel_id, it will not return anything but I want it to return the details with zero count

Can I use something like try/finally construction for guaranteed run script with -b option in sqlcmd? The task is:
turn on single user mode
run some scripts that may be errors
guaranteed turn off single user mode
|
|

|

Yes, even Sql has the famous try..catch[^] block. Your "finally" would be included at the end of the "try" part.

Whaaaa....? No. Shirley that wont work like a finally block.

Not guaranteed to execute indeed. Would it help to nest to try's, and check whether an error occured?

Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near ':'.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1

You cannot deploy this update script to target INP-xx. The database for which this script was built, Test2, does not exist on this server.

So there are errors for the first four lines of code? Please show us the first four or five lines of code. Otherwise it's hard to help you as we don't know what you do.

ya..I have given the code below

Well you are not in SQL-Commandmode, I bet. Change it in the MS Sql Server Management Studio. Go to Query->SQLCMD-Mode
Better way to change (in my opinion):
SET @DatabaseName VARCHAR(32) = 'Test'
...
IF (DB_ID(N'$(@DatabaseName)') IS NOT NULL

You need to run this script in SQLCMD mode.
Goto the menu, click Query > SQLCMD Mode
Now you will be able to run your script.

What am I supposed to do...go to Query->SQLCMD MODE then paste the script and click on execute??

You could ask Google what this "CMD MODE" is, what it does, and where it lives. Try to get to know the beast, as opposed to "try and see if it works".
