I know this sounds stupid but what can we do with this system? at the moment it is just giving simple reports to us about usage - I'd like these to be linked to our in-house developments a bit better and also was thinking about some sort of customer service system to pop information to users...

We use powerquest as we want to take an image of the entire server to enable disaster recovery. I can't change the companies strategy just because of this problem, however tempting that might be Thanks

Hi all I've got a series of windows services that connect to my database to perform operations to data loads to progress them from one state to another. This all works fine apart from the sql server service has to be stopped and started every night to enable backups. When sql comes back up the...

Is there anyway to include a # character in a parfile for the imp routine. When we run the import the password for a particular database includes a # character which we are unable to change. IMP doesn't seem to understand this (at least not under unix) and asks for the user to log on. This is ok...

This is a fun one. I've checked in a file with a date 4 years ago (was doing something else at the time that needed me to look at y2k). The file was first created in VSS in 2002. I cannot delete the instance I have created as VSS says that it doesn't exist and it doesn't appear in the history...
