I need to backup the sql server 2005 express database. It works fine if I make backup to specific folder"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackup". But if I change the path to any other path . I got an error "Backup failed for Server 'server name'. "
My code is
Dim sqlBackup As New Backup()
sqlBackup.Action = BackupActionType.Database
sqlBackup.BackupSetDescription = "ArchiveDataBase:" + DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString()
sqlBackup.BackupSetName = "Archive"
sqlBackup.Database = "data"
[Code] .....
before re-inventing the wheel, i want to ask you how i can do this best: I have a VB.Net application that uses a database connection to MS SQL Server 2005 (express version). There are users that input data with the application into the database lets say once to 2x an hour to once a minute. I want to do backups like this: Once a day or once a week (in the evening) a full backup, and whenever the program/user is idle for lets say 10 Minutes, i want to do an incremental backup (so that it does not take so long until he can work on after the backup).
There are no big security issues, just copying the backup data files to a network share / a different computer or server would be fine. i guess the average db size may be 300MB, but the daily increments about 1MB.
Or anybody can tell me : HoW can create storeprocedure which contains this code.I created a store procedure but it cant be saved.If i create a storeprocedure which contains this code then problem will resolved.
I am doing a simple backup of sql server database through VB.NET form. It gets executed well but I want to display details of successful query execution in a label (i.e. time taken, database size etc.)
The message which I want to display in label is like "Processed 296 pages for database 'aaa', file 'aaa' on file 1. Processed 1 pages for database 'aaa', file 'aaa_log' on file 1. BACKUP DATABASE successfully processed 297 pages in 0.522 seconds (4.660 MB/sec)."
This result we get in sql server query window when we execute backup query there. I want to get this message in label when I fire backup query from Windows form in VB.NET
I want to take my access database which i used in my project on visual studio2008 backup by selecting the local drive of my computer at the time of backup i choose the drive & there were i taken the backup i restore my database. Is is possible to take backup atomatically when i close my application.
SELECT * FROM tbl_Muffins WHERE OvenLoadId IN ( SELECT OvenLoadId
[code]....
The idea of the query is that I want to specify an OrderId, and I want all Oven Loads that have items from that order in them, as well as ALL OTHER ITEMS in those loads, even though they could be from other orders.The query works as expected, but I'm not able to use it for my Crystal Report I've written it for.I have put this query into a User Defined Function, however I'm unable to use a call to that function as a table source in my Crystal Report. I am using Visual Studio 2003 (I know it is old, the client refuses to upgrade).
I have a database of 7 items that I want the user to be able to choose the order in which each is listed for use further along in programming. I'm thinking of using combboxes bound to the database. I found out that each combobox will have to have its own dataset otherwise they will all show whatever the current one that has focus changes to. Is there an easier way to be able to do this or is having 7 datasets bound to the comboboxes the best way? For this purpose I don't need all the contents listed in a DGV, only need the component name for now if this helps. Database programming is new to me and I'm a hobbyist programmer from VB6 days making the transition.
I am trying to redirect command line output to a list box in a vba macro, and I've found some code that I think might point me in the right direction, but I keep on getting the same error. When I use this code [code]It gives me the error in the title and highlights the first declaration line.What does it take to define a new "process".
I am having a big problem with deleteing a file form the server. I have the filename for a image stored in my SQL database. the problem is i am getting an error of "Illegal characters in path. " Here is the code below:Everything is working fine until the delete command.
Protected Sub DeleteButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim tmpEquipID As String = Request("EquipID") Dim tmpImageID As String = (CType(FormView1.FindControl("ImageIDLabel"), Label).Text) Dim d As New equippicsDataContext
I'm trying to figure out a way to save all the stored procedures on a SQL Server 2005instance to text files. One of our developers has made a huge amount of StoredProcedures,and theseneed to be managed somehow between our test / integration and production environments. I know how to retrieve / run / create stored procedures, it's just the "save-to-file" i need.
Let us start with...yes I am new to SQL and really only a lightweight programmer. So I am assuming that I am doing something horribly wrong. I have spent days on the MS forums looking for an answer to no avail. So I am going to give as much info as possible. Application language is VBExpress 2010 and using SQLExpress 2008. The Database contain basic tables, no stored procs, no views, no diagrams. The Application has configured diagrams where one of the tables has inner joins... Tables origninally built in SSMS, but have been altered in VBE.
I'm converting a user generated list box to an array and then generating a user defined number of random strings and placing it in a textbox.The code I have works fine as it will generate the number of random strings the user wants, except sometimes a line is blank at the top of the list but is counted as a string.
right let me try to explain what i am trying to build.a bit of software which logs onto a website and downloads all of the users images i have found all the URLs etc and can build most of my vari

above i have a specific username in the little backup script i have created. in this section of the code, if the user selects this particular chkbox then hits "start" it backs up the above loacation to a "server" H.
how do i code it to automatically pull the username and place it where "godboubs" (aka the username) is?
i want to take back up of our data base data i request to you for give best solution for it .. code .. and it will also run whenever some one accessing our vb.net project?
lately I've been experiencing LinqToSql + Sql Server Express 2005, and it was a great journey (muddy) anyway .... I'm at the point that I want to make a Backup/Restore for the database backup for SSE is as easy as a simple copy paste of the mdf file, but the problem that I can't copy the file while the server is using it, server doesn't let the file go untill the app is closed or after about 4 - 6 minutes of idle time,
I am using SQL server express 2005 as an backend. I created a backup file programmatically. If I use same server , then it restore the data successfully. however if we try to restore on different server, then it fails. and throw following message: "The Backup set Holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'DatabaseName' database. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally." On both server, Sql server instance name and database name is same. How can I resolve this error?
My application needs to be able to be pointed at different SQL Servers and different databases and I would like to provide the end user with a nice method of selecting both the server and database (the app is for use by other IT staff).Ideally, I was thinking of allowing them to browse to the server (with possibly entering credentials or even better, using their Windows credentials as the databases in question should be accessible to the relevant people via their AD account), and then listing the databases on that server allowing them to select one to use.
I would like them to then be able to easily change the server and database whenever necessary.I imagine I would then need to build the connection strings based on what they select but at the moment I have got rather stuck in just trying to create a form with some kind of Server Browser (I've not got as far as a database browser!).Failing some kind of server/database browser options, I would change to some simple text boxes where the user can enter the name of the server and database directly with some kind of connection verification button.
Finally, is it easy to connect to multiple databases on the same SQL Server at the same time? Is it just a case of creating and referencing multiple connection strings?I am using VB 2008 Professional and SQL Server 2005 Standard.
I am using help of SqlServer.Management.Smo to rename an attached MS-SQL database.
Dim db As New Database = ActiveSQLServer.Databases(OLD_NAME) db.ExecuteNonQuery("ALTER DATABASE " & OLD_NAME & " SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE") db.ExecuteNonQuery("ALTER DATABASE " & OLD_NAME & " MODIFY NAME = " & NEW_NAME)
The problem is that after renaming the database is set as a Single User.So what am i doing wrong?
I have made a project in vb.net 2008 and used sql server 2008 for database and how to make the setup that need to be deploy on those system which do not have sql server on their system .
