I am new to SQL Server 2005...and was reviewing the following msdn url for creating logins and users: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337552.aspx
Can someone explain what the difference is between a db login and a db user?
From my understanding, you use the db login within SQL Server manager, or with your .NET code, correct? Then, you create a user and associate it to a login? Why? What's the relevance of knowing or having a user associated to a login, when the login is sufficient alone? Would I use the user logging into sql server mgr or within my .net code?
Do I need to associate a login with a user?
thanks!

A login connects you to the SQL Server instance. A database user defines what privileges a login has within a particular database. If you have multiple databases on your server, you probably don't want everyone who can connect to the server (login) have some kind of access to every database. So you could have a login associated with one database or with several.
Someone's gotta be the last to know, but why is it always me?

I am currently working in a MSSQL 2000 version and all of the paginated results for various scripts are done using 3 or more SELECT sub-queries.
Unlike MySQL which only requires a single query --- I cannot see this being very efficient, especially the larger your database grows?
I have done some googling and it turns out that row_count() is MSSQL answer since 2005 -- can anyone confirm whether this is the case and better yet refer me to some resources which I can read over the weekend to freshen up on MSSQL?
Cheers,
Alex

Correct, ROW_COUNT() is a very efficient way to get a row count in SQL 2005.

Do you happen to know of any benchmarks that compare the old style to the new?

I am using a windows forms app vb.net 3.5 SP1 w/VS 2008. I have a DS set up. I have about 4 DateTime Columns in the DS in a particular table that are defined in the SQL2005 server as DateTime NULLable. I've extended the DateTimePicker class to be able to accept a Date? value. The problem is that the DS does not believe that the date columns that are nullable, really are. It always wants to throw an exception. Per someone elses suggestion i set the date fields in the DS designer to DataType "System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime" with DefaultValue "Null", and AllowDBNull "True", yet the NullValue Property *only* allows "(Throw Exception)" and I think to fix my issue I need it to be "Null" however if I do that, the compiler says "Null is not a valid AllXsd value", which is where I'm stuck and I'm afraid is a little beyond my understanding... are there any suggestions you could make to me? I'd really appreciate it!! Thanks in advance.

Hey there gang,
Hopefully, a simple question. I've written an Access mdb app with windows forms on the front end (for user input and so forth). It compiled just fine. Now when I run it, and I go to the 'reports' section (via Crystal Reports), it asks for login name and pwd for the mdb. I looked into the .xml file for the connection string and there's nothing there with respect to a UID or pwd. Any idea on how to remedy that? Thanks everybody I really appreciate your help.

How are you connecting to the MDB ? Using ODBC, etc ?
Have you tried leaving the username and password blank ?
What version of MS-Access are you using ?
What version of Crystal Reports are you using ?
What version of Visual Studio are you using ?
This might help us in finding an answer to your problem.

Hi there.... I'm connecting via OLEDB 4.0; Username and PWD are blank (in fact, they're not listed in the xml file that was generated, merely a "Persist Security Info=True" line there; MS-Access ver 2003; Crystal Reports ver 10; VS 2008 Pro. Many thanks.

|
|
|
|
Oops, almost forgot. I've tried leaving the username and password blank when prompted.
|
|
|
|
|
Can you try this one?
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\mydatabase.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;

Hey there.... tried and still get the "login failed" ... I can't find anything else in the connection

|
|
|

Have you considered reinstalling the drivers[^]?
Can you post an example of your connectionString?

Hey there,
Sorry for the late reply and I very much appreciate the help. I decided to use an SQL db instead and haven't had any problems (though I admittedly haven't been able to figure out what the problem was with the Access db). Anywho, thanks everybody for the ideas!!!!

Month before, One of my database size was 15GB. But today i have looked it , it grows to 35GB.
In which MDF(Data file) Size is 13603584 KB and LDF(Log File) sixe is 39793536 KB.
after analyzing it for a few hours i had seen growth of Log files is so fast.
i ran
sp_dboption '<dbname>', 'trunc. log on chkpt.', 'TRUE'
CHECKPOINT
use master
Go
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced option', '1'
RECONFIGURE EXEC sp_configure
USe <dbname>
GO
DBCC SHRINKFILE (<dbname>_LOG, 1)
GO
But it does not help me.
kindly let me know how to truncate it or How to reduce log file size.??
thanks in advance.

SQL Server tries to protect you, by remembering what you did to it's databases. Or your databases, depending on your point of view

We've had a view working fine in SQL 2000 which has one field (used for sorting) which is defined by calling a function that returns a text string. In SQL 2000 you can either run the query in Design View or select Open View and it works the same in both cases. In SQL 2005 if you run the query in Design view it works fine and the data is sorted correctly, but if you just do Open View to see the data then the data isn't sorted.
Any thoughts? TIA.

Im using SQL 2005 - if you have another version you're on your own.
Right Click database > Tasks > Generate Scripts
Follow wizard until the page titled "Output Options"
Script Mode > Script to File > Files to generate > File per object
