Hello All;
I have a SQL db that collects environmental data. As it gets larger the performance of the server suffers. So I think that I would like to copy the "working" db to a new db then purge the working db. The be able to run querrys that span the databases.
I don't know just enough about SQL server to be dangerous so I would like to do this using VB.net
As an example.
If we backed up the db monthly and renamed them. then would it later be possible to run querry's that spanned the db's.
1. Is this a doable concept?
2. Would I?
"Drop" the working db
Copy all the data from the working db to a new db
Purge the tables in the working db
Just looking for some conceptual help here to make a plan to do this. Any help or guidence you could give be would be greatly appreciated.

If you are using SQL Server 2005 (or 2008) have a read about partitioned tables, this may be the answer to your performance problems.
Whatever you decide, DON'T try and do it in VB.net, you could well end up losing all your data!

You could use Replication to copy your working DB to another server and use that for all querying. SQL Server offers good replication capabilities for offline processing.

Helo,
Can anybody help me!
I have 3 tables
first 1 have a header table with one row
the second table are all the data records
and the third is a trailer table!
So now i want to create 1 file
with all the fields of the header table separated through ;
then new line, the data table with the fields separated through ;
and finally the trailer table with fields separated through ;
i think i can do this with Bcp utility or something like this,
but i don't know how!
Please help!
Thank you

You can create a SQL statement giving you correct result set and then save the result to a file.
Use UNION and concatenate all fields from a table to a single field using desired separator

Ok, thank you but i want to put this in a stored Procedure...
So i can call it from out of a program!

Well, you have several options
You can use BCP (with a stored proc or a select) and a format file to create an output file, but this relies on ALL rows having the same number of fields
You can use the idea of concatonating the fields together with your delimiter and use this query in your bcp with effectively a single field per rocord
You can just read the data into your program and write the file yourself.
Try Goggling for format files in bcp
There are probably other ways too, but I can't be bothered to do your job any more...

It doesn't matter. You can return the result set from procedure almost like you can return it from SELECT statement so wrapping the statement into procedure is ok.

What is the difference between Sql Server 2000 and Sql Server 2005
Thnx
|
|
|
|
|
One was released in 2000 and the other in 2005.
On a serious note, there are thousands of articles dedicated to this on the internet. All it needs is a simple search.

HI,
For this question please refer google because so many difference are there and i can't tell them on this forum then also i ll tell you from programmers point of view.
Error Handling:
In sqlserver 2005:
Addition of TRY/CATCH allows more mature error handling. More error_xx functions can gather additional information about errors.
In sql server 2000:
Limited to checking @@error, no much flexibility.
Language:
in sql server 2005:
All the power of SQL Server 2000 with the addition of CTEs for complex, recursive problems, enhanced TOP capabilities, PIVOT/APPLY/Ranking functions, and ROW_NUMBER.
in sql server 2000:
SQL Language enhanced from previous versions providing strong data manipulation capabilities
Hope this will help you

Are you seriously that dumb that you cannot use Google? I suggest getting away from any career using computers right now.

U r the dumb who is completely dependent on google. May god just close the google for one day then dumbo how would find the solutions to ur probs

You ask a question to which there are many available sources of information, not least the Microsoft site which actually gives you a summary of the differences. You then complain when people suggest you look for yourself, and then further insult them when they suggest using Google.
Time you got some manners and a career change - if you cannot perform simple reasearch for yourself you will never make a decent programmer.

And what would you do without CP to do your work for you rather than buying a book or doing some basic research? Based on your attitude, good luck getting ANY help from CP again.

Hi,
I'm having problems finding out how to delete a field in a jet (Access) database via SQL code (using OleDbCommand in C# code). This field is set to Indexed=Yes (no dups).
From my research, it looks like I have to change the Indexed to 'No' before deleting the field?
I found this on the net, but if the field was created with MS Access app, I don't know the idxName to use in my SQL code.
DROP INDEX idxName ON tblCustomers
thanks for any help you can give,
Ron

 I need to replicate my database in SQL Server.
So how can I do it?

Try looking in BOL for replication - its a large subject

I suggest you read BOL or get a book on SQL server management as this is not answerable in a forum post. Its the same as asking how do I set up SQL Server, answer, install it.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
