this is probably going to seem like a crazy thing to post because i'm not looking to get into IT/IS, i'm looking to shift somewhat out of it. History: BA & MS in Interpersonal Communication (so study of people & communication dynamics) worked as HR Generalist for 2 years before going on to a...

OMG! i think i figured it out! it involved Named Pipes (which i have heard of but don't understand) & credentials. here's what my final statement in my .bat file looks like sqlcmd -S "np:\\.\pipe\MSSQL$NamedInstance\sql\query" -Uuser -Ppassword -ic:\mybackup.sql i got this from the other...

well and now after a little more research & comparison, i don't find a sqlcmd.exe anywhere on my server. i even looked for osql & isql just grabbing ideas & find nothing. so i'm not sure exactly what exe would kick off the .sql file.

well anyone that can help me with the last step, i'd greatly appreciate it. i was able to use the Script To in Express to script out a backup titled sql_bu.sql: BACKUP DATABASE [DBName] TO DISK = N'D:\Backup\DBName.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND...

thanks dj55. not sure if i'm on the exact same track as you, but i did try going onto another SQL server in this vendor supplied system (there are 3 & the other 2 run SQL 2008 Standard). so i thought, i'll just connect to my Express server via SQL Standard from one of the other 2 servers &...

i've searched the forums here & found a few question/answers that speak a little to my question, but not completely. i perform basic SQL administration on several 2005 & 2008 SQL servers but i encountered my first vendor-supplied SQL Server Express 2008 server today. i need to set up full...

thanks once more to everyone that answered here. i was able to test converting a pdf to Word using Nitro & advised her on that. it's up to her now!

yes, explained to her the pdf was going to be the bigger problem unless she had Acrobat. i have not heard back from her & most people only have Reader. i'll be surprised if she has more than Reader, but you never know! thanks again for the help!

thank you both. i will pass that on to her. i think it's a bit unreasonable too but it is her thesis & thesis committees are known for that sort of thing.

i have been asked to research the following for a co-worker. we will assume Word 2007 at this point: My only question/problem that I have at this time is with formating my appendices. I have to include all the documents that I used as handouts at my event, in the appendices. Where I am...

wow! i think i figured it out. after getting into the CMC and finding the Concurrent vs Named User settings, i was not able to edit/change the setting for Guest. i went to the Licensing section and didnt' see my key entered on this page, so i Added it. this then showed me the "stats" for my...

ok, now i've found the defaul Admin login info and have edited that to use a password. now on to figuring out licensing.

i did at least find the URL for the CMC. but i have no idea what the login is or what to use for the different Authentication Types. i'll keep fishing!

Turkbear, if you're still out there.....even though the Services started, i'm getting the same error message reported in this posting: http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1066456&page=10 i've forwarded the posting to my software vendor to have them look into this as i have no Crystal...

but i'm not having issues running the services now. it was just the CMS. it runs if i check the default port of 6400, but if i uncheck default and try to use 6401, it won't start. the secondary issue is that the CE10 is not displaying in the CMS Data Source field on the Config tab. my odbc...
