    Problem w/scripting options in SQL Server 2005

    We need to be able to script objects (tables, user functions, stored procedures) with the below structure: if exists(---) then drop procedure xxx create procedure xxx This is available in SQL Server 2000, but I have not been able to do it in SQL Server 2005. It seems SQL Server 2005 has alter...

    import csv into db

    problem w/first SQL Server 2005 customer...

    I have just changed the app (VB6 program) to ignore the particular "error" - in error handling just saying "if err.number = xxx and err.description = xxx then resume next". Thanks everyone for the helpful posts.

    Our software runs on SQL Server 2000. One of the stored procedures executes sp_rename to rename columns in a table. When running the sproc in Query Analyzer the message appears "3604 - Caution: Changing any part of an object name could break scripts and stored procedures." When the VB6...

    how to default group tree to 'off' in report preview ??

    The "Create Group Tree" button under File / Options is for new reports, I guess, as it has no effect on existing reports. The 'Create Group Tree' button under File / Report Options does affect an existing report. However, if you uncheck it and save the report, then when you generate the...

    Corrupt stored procedure, can't drop, can't alter

    Zhavic - Thanks for your reply. Evidently the DB was too hosed for your recovery script. I tried it, but got back null for the ID of the stored procedure in question. We could not manually update or delete the sysobject record for that particular object. We could change others but not that...

    SQL Objects - dependencies

    The script, at first blush, appeared to work properly. However, it would only get a small amount of the actual text of the object. And on the portion that it did get, all carriage return and line feed info was dropped, so it would be all one long line.. You have been a big help, because...

    SQL Objects - dependencies

    When running large scripts I often get the "cannot update sysdepends table ---" message. Because of this I cannot trust the "system dependencies" as displayed for objects by Enterprise manager. Is there a way to ask SQL Server 2000 to update the system dependencies? I...

    How do I use the new table variables in SQL Server 2000?

    Table variables did not work for me until I started using an alias for the table variable when I had to qualify column names of a table variable. Look at the UPDATE @myTable statement, where the INNER JOIN refers to tblTable.Field1, and tblTable is the alias for table variable @myTable. If...
