I've not had a chance to play around with SQL Server 2005, but in SQL Server 2000 the Enterprise Manager has a feature where you can script database objects (tables, views, stored procedures, user defined functions, etc.) by right clicking on them and selecting the Script item. You can also click on the database to script the whole DB. I'm guessing that SQL Server 2005 will have something similar.

that's the problem  the express version of 2005 doesn't have enterprise manager, it has a community built one that doesn't have much funtionality right now. The higher versions of 2005 are suppose to have this but not express (express is the msde of 2005)

|

it has all the *funtionality* but not the tools (oh and 1 gig ram usage is the other limitation)
|

SQL Express Manager is supposed to have this capability.
Download from here[^]. Note that the version of Express Manager needs to match the version of SQL Server Express, so you'll need to upgrade your database server to the April CTP to match the currently-available Express Manager CTP.

Any Ideas, Here Is the Code:
Public SaveIt()

DataRow dr;
for(int i=0;i<12;i++)
{
dr["Months"] = arrMonths[i]; //Throws Exception
MyDataTable.Rows.Add(dr);
}
MyDatSet.GetChanges();
MyDataSet.WriteXml(strFileName, XmlWriteMode.DiffGram);
}
TIA

"this" has no associated context as you have not actually given an error message.
There is no data row object here.
DataRow dr; does not actually create a DataRow object, only a reference to one, and since you don't reference one then the line fails because you are trying to use a DataRow that does not exist.
To create an appropriate DataRow object use DataTable.NewRow()[^] before trying to use dr. e.g.
dr = MyDataTable.NewRow();

Yes he has, it's in the subject line 
Seriously, while looking at the code, I would expect that it would generate an "Object instance not set to an object" exception instead of that column not found in table.
For GostWryter, yes, the solution given by Colin should fix your problem. A little more explanation. You need to use the DataTable to create a new DataRow so the row contains the table's schema (columns for example), even if the row itself is not in the table yet (that's why you Add it to the Rows collection later.)

Hi
I have a basic question. I want to copy a table in a db to another db (in the destination the table has to be created first with proper columns). the table name and schema will remain same. (I'm using sql server 2000).
Can you provide sample ado.net code, by which I can achieve that?
Thanks

Aha - so you did post here as well. See my response in the C# forum, you sly dog.

This method is fine only when source and destination tables are in the same server.
What if they are in different servers?

hi,
is there any other way of executing a sql script in sql server 2000 besides using the sql query analyzer or the enterprise manager itself?
for example my database server (sql server 2000) is up and running.
what i want do is to change one of the stored procedures. i have made the changes and generated the script.
now is there any way that i could upload this script to the deployed sql server and automatically execute it at some fix time?
please do answer this question, even if the answer is "no" or nobody knows!!
thanx in advance

In C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn you should fine a program called osql.exe. This is a command-line query running tool.
Alternatively, many installation tools (Installshield, wise, windows installer) support some method of executing SQL on a server.

thanx a lot Steven. osql.exe was just the utility i needed! works great for me!
One thing that comes into my mind now is that, if sql server 2000 provides such a utility, does this mean that there might be a tool or program for the versioning of all the Stored Procedures, or any objects in the database? if you could refer such a tool/program, it would be Heaven on Earth for me! 
thanx a lot!

Sorry to disappoint, but there is no built in versioning support in SQL Server, at any level. The best you can do is manually include comments at the start of your stored procedures, to indicate change history.
There are some 3rd party tools that do database comparisons, and will be able to tell you when database structures are different. I cannot recommend anything specific though.

no disappoint at all!! not after "oslq.exe".
i think i will go for the manual approach, because third party tools usually involve some sort of licensing problems, and versioning in my case has the lowest priority. so i dont think that i'll be spending any money for this purpose!
thanx anyways!

Anybody know about a good document to learn and set up replication?
Cheers

No, as far as I can figure, there are no good ones. I think the reason is that there are so many "ifs and buts", i.e. technique x works, but only if you structure your inserts this way, but if you have a BLOB column then you have to do it another way unless the planets are out of alignment, and then you have to apply the "jupiter" hotfix. Its just too complex to write about in any meaningful way.
Unless you are willing to put many many hours into the learning effort, my best advice is to hire a consultant. As a bonus, you'll have someone to blame when things go wrong.

Hi,
As far as SQL Server replication goes, the best bet is http://msdn.microsoft.com/librarydefaul.asp?url=/library/en-us/replsql/replover_694n.asp
You could also learn to implement replication on the internet through the front end e.g using SQL Merge Replication Object for Merge Replication. The URL for the same is at MSDN , a few links below the link given above

What to do if I like to store an XML-file of size up to 10MB in SQL 2000 Server? What is the “best” solution of that problem. What type of column should I use and can I use the regular “INSERT INTO” SQL statement…

Best solution do not inster that into SQL 2000, Save it into the hard disk and just store the path in SQL.
Cheers
