Okay then yes, the express edition is whats causing the problem. Id assume he probably installed it when installing Visual Studio 2k5. I actually ran into this problem a few months back, and the solution for me was to uninstall visual studio completely, and reinstall and make sure not to install vc express (custom install if i recall correctly). Id assume you were already on this path so i'm not sure how much help im providing but lmk if you still are pondering a decision.

completely means anything else than start->control panel->add/remove programs-> uninstall visual c# express edition?

The reason i wrote that was because, i cant for the life of me think of it now tho, I think you have to clear some registry values. Just try the uninstall via the control panel and if it doesn't work check out this blog:

When I had your problem this blog was a life saver.
Good luck.

Why not attach the db to the instance of SQL 2005?
I suspect whether you are using C# Express or Professional will not makes all that much difference.

Sorry for the late answer, but was not in town for a day. The thing is that my friend doesn't have an instance of sql 2005 installed on the system. plus, i think the connection string would change (sql 2005 express accepts only files to be accessed as far as i remember; i've worked only a little with 2005 because i had some conflicts on my pc so i had to reinstall all the system and...).
Thanks a lot. If professional doesn't solve it, i'm gonna take all the database to 2005.
Thanks again,
Catalin David.

I've read through a few articles on the issues that a machine running XP will have when accessing a server on a 2k or 2k3 machine, but have yet to find the solution to my problem. Here goes...
The issue is that when someone running a machine with XP on it, tries to access a Crystal Report,(which queries a db hosted via sql server on a machine with win2k), they often run into access issues. The access (in the crystal report) is set to use integrated security so the users are not required to use a un/pw. This happens after new installations (almost every time) and occurs randomly throughout the day. Currently, when the user encounters this error, we are just having them log off / log on and this takes care of the problem. So again to sum it all up, users are being asked for their credentials (although access is set to integrated security) when trying to access a crystal report.

Hi
I have to import flat files in a sql server database which are of the format:
Date: 2 apr 07
Input file: input1.test
Output file: input2.test
table1_column1 table1_column2 ....
123 456
table2_column1 table2_column2.......
26678 23334
the file is tab delimited. i have to read the date from the header and read only the first table.
is it possible to do it with IS?
I have a parsing routine in c# that extracts the required data but it is very slow. Iam looking for some efficient solutions

Can u provide me with an example of a date routine that will return the begin and ending period for a week number. For example, if week 14 for 2007 was provided, the routine would return starting date 08/04/2007 and ending week 14/04/2007.
Input Provided - week number (1 - 53), and Year(cccc)
Output - week begin date and week end date

I have a big problem here.
I have a query that reads (suedo):
select [column],
(select [a row] from [joined tables] where [condition]) as column2,
(select [a row] from [joined tables] where [condition]) as column3,
....
(select [a row] from [joined tables] where [condition]) as columnN
from [main table]
This is what I meant by crosstab query.
MORE DETAILS: [a row] contains basic arithmetic computations, [joined tables] join 5 tables (one of them has nearly a million records) and [condition] inludes several LIKE statements (that might be contributing to the problem??? - but I don't think this is the MAIN reason)
Problem is it gets too slow when the number of columns ([columnN]) increases.
What do you suggest?
Should I not do it as a crosstab, and run multiple smaller queries and put them in to one big table programmatically? Then I think, the sql server has to be smarter than me... Or is there something I'm missing?
PS: the SQL database is a MS SQL and running on windows server 2003.
Any help, hints, suggestions, questions are greatly appreciated.

OK - this is seriously in need of rewriting. The data that you are pulling back seems to be far too complicated. Like conditions are generally not very performant. Run this query and view it's execution plan, then run the indexing wizard on it.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
|
|
|
|
|
The query is (probably) looping thru every (select [a row]...) for EVERY row in [main table]. This means repeating each of the joins, then scrubbing each result set for each where [condition], for every single row in [main table].
Are you sure you can't pull the joins out into the main loop? If possible, I think that would dramatically speed things up.
