I am being given excel sheet daily and want to upload them to an existing database with the exact same column names, i wanted to do this in sql server 2005, but then i thought it would be easier to just creat an asp.net program that could do this autmatically, that way the managers could do it them selves. would i use a bulk insert?

I am new user of Crystal Reports and experienced at using VS2008 (VB). I have a big gap that I have found no explanation on bridging. There must be some type of import process that I have been unable to find.
I built a report using SQL Server 2005 (Business Intelligence Dev Studio) and it works. I need to use the report in a VS2008 (VB) project. How do I get it into my VB project and call it? The SQL project creates a report with an .rdl definition file. I think the VB project requires an .rpt file. How do I import it into the VB project?
how to create Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 for a Client Server application? The problem I faced is that when I created Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 where the Crystal Report is displayed in the client application it does not get refreshed with data entered. It only displays data that was entered during the time of development. I think this is probably because the database path changes when deployed in a new environment while the Crystal report keeps referring to the database location at development time.

View 2 RepliesWhy are there no examples that I can find on how to import an excel range into SQL Server, there are plenty of example on how to import the whole spreadsheet but none for the range? I find this wierd.
What I need to do is import an excel named range into a sql table using vb.net. I have been able to import the range from excel to access but not to sql server. I used the many examples that are on the web using OLEDB for the connection part and ODBC for the command. However I continually get the cannot find and installable ISAM. I have excel 2003 and Excel 2007 on the box.
I know this can be done using SQL Server SSIS package, which I have used before, however you have to install certian SQL Server features on the box that is running the application for this to work. I want my application to be able to run on any box that it is installed on without the need for the SQL Server features to be installed.

I recently upgraded the MS SQL Server installed on my personal computer from 2005 Express to 2008 Express. Problem is when I try to add an SQL database file to a project using VS 2005 I get an error message saying that the version of my database server is not supported, I must have SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 or later installed. I didn't do it yet but I'm pretty sure that when I open the other projects that I included a database file to it, I'm going to get the same error.
My question is it possible to have two SQL Servers installed on my machine? If so, is it a good idea to have two DB servers in the same machine?

I have created a database to house a lot of data. I have created a front end application to allow the users to enter the data and it gets checked and then written to the database. The problem I am having is the users have a lot of data that has been kept in Excel sheets and they are wanting to import the data to the database without having to reenter all the data. I have been reading through the different posts trying to find one that will fit my needs and haven't been able to. The old way of putting the data into Excel has now been turned into a few different tables in the database. The database is created off a national standard so it can't be changed. What I am needing to know is how to take data from these Excel sheets and import either into my application and then find a way to covert the data over to where it can go into all the tables that need it or to create something that will write the data directly to the database into the different tables. I am not sure if this is possible but thought this would be the best place to ask the questions.

View 2 Repliesbefore 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.

The CLR has been unable to transition from COM context 0x1b3008 to COM context 0x1b3178 for 60 seconds. The thread that owns the destination context/apartment is most likely either doing a non pumping wait or processing a very long running operation without pumping Windows messages. This situation generally has a negative performance impact and may even lead to the application becoming non responsive or memory usage accumulating continually over time.To avoid this problem, all single threaded apartment (STA) threads should use pumping wait primitives (such as CoWaitForMultipleHandles) and routinely pump messages during lonunning operations.

I had made a project in VB.NET 2005 with SQL SERVER 2005 used as database. Now i want to make a setup of this project but i am unable to integrate sqldatabase and .net framework in this setup project. Is there any way to do this. Because it is assumed that the client does not have .NET Framework installed nor he has SQL Server on his system and the worst condition would be he does not have even internet connection from where these two setups can be downloaded if we give the condition for downloading these programs from the net if the client does not have these programs installed on his machine.
View 2 RepliesI am using a database file Database1.mdf which have a tabel called student. This Database1.mdf is simply added by using the option Add New Item in Solution Explorer. The problem is that I am to able to update the database through form and code. The code is as:

Dim ada As SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
Dim cp As SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder

The ds is updated at run time, but as form is closed and run again the actual database table student is not updated.I have no idea what is going on. The same code work right with Access database and SQL database but in this case it is not working. I've tried on google but not getting satisfactory answer. I've also seen a post on this site but that is about ConnectionString, not about the database update.

I'm trying to connect to a sql server 2005 database. I'm using the following connection string.
Dim cnn As OleDbConnection = _
New OleDbConnection("Provider=sqloledb;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=Iconics")
Using this connection gives me the following error :

Does anybody know what is wrong with this connection string.

View 1 RepliesI can connect to both databases with SQL Server Enterprise Manager, so I know the servers are up and available. One of them is SQL1, the other is SQLTEST.In my program when I use the following connection string, it work connects just fine:
conn = New DBConnect("Data Source=SQL1;Initial Catalog=SignInspection;Integrated Security=SSPI")
However, if I change SQL1 to SQLTEST the connection times out I don't get any errors other than the timeout error.I can run the profiler on SQLTest and see that it is most definitely NOT even attempting to connect.
EDIT:Well, it's a moot point now because I got authentication working properly on our SQL1 server.
First off, the web server is running IIS and .NET. Users are logged in to the intranet using Active Directory, and the .NET page needs to retrieve their log-in credentials (username most notably). The database is SQL Server 2005, running on a different machine. But the .NET app needs to impersonate as another user to connect to the database.
To successfully do both of these things go to Windows > Run, enter inetmgr and hit run. Navigate to the site and right click > properties, then click on the tab titled Directory Security, click Edit.., make sure only Integrated Windows Authentication and Digest authentication are enabled. Enter your proper AD realm and click OK. Apply the settings/hit OK.In web.config you need the following lines
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<identity impersonate="true" username="myDomainMyUserName" password="123mypasswordgoeshere">
replacing, of course, myDomainMyUserName and 123mypasswordgoeshere with the username and password that has login rights on both your domain and your sql server. The connection string can probably be modified, but this is mine and it works:
Server=SQL1;Database=SignInspection;Trusted_connection=True;
