For those who have not yet working with next version of the SQL server, It is time to start learning! 

I want to believe that most of the DBAs already working with the beta versions, for months. Soon the official release version is here, So those who have not yet started to learn it, this is a good time to start practicing and understand.

Hi ,

I have table  with 4 columns TSID,CLientID,Startdate,enddate.right now in my application when user enters name and startdate one TSID (primary key)is created in table  for one application.for another application user enters name and startdate  and client one TSID is created in the same table  .below is the output

TSID   ClientID name   statdate                    enddate
22	NULL	Angie	2014-02-02 00:00:00.000	2014-02-08 00:00:00.000
23	NULL	Alex	2014-02-02 00:00:00.000	2014-02-08 00:00:00.000
24	32	test2	2014-02-02 00:00:00.000	2014-02-08 00:00:00.000

but if user enters in two application  i want to show dates related to that application .

TSID   ClientID name   statdate                    enddate
22	NULL	Angie	2014-02-02 00:00:00.000	2014-02-08 00:00:00.000
23	32	Angie	2014-02-02 00:00:00.000	2014-02-08 00:00:00.000

If user enters  name ,start date first time in one application  it insertTSID  in table .second time same user enters name start date in another application its not inserting into table.

Hi,

I need to give a user I created on my database ALL privileges. I have tried by clicking all the membership roles for the user but it doesn't seem to have the permission to alter database which is needed for its jobs. How do I do this? What roles have ALTER database permission?  Thanks for any answers.

One of our SQL 2005 database started to give us "Database is in
transition...Error 952". We were trying to Take the DB offline when this
problem occurred. Restarting SQL service did not help us. We were unable to do anything with this database as we were unable to obtain any locks.

What resolved the problem? Re-starting manamgement studio on client machine.
Go Figure!

I tried the following test using 'SET STATISTICS IO ON' using an indexed table, then the same command with no index different table, but identical.  Index is as follows: (the table has 6467155 rows)

CREATE  INDEX [OrderID_ind] ON [dbo].[OrdDetails]([OrderID]) ON [PRIMARY]
GO

Then I ran these statements:

SET STATISTICS IO ON -- Has identity column w/index
select * from OrdDetails
SET STATISTICS IO off
GO

SET STATISTICS IO ON -- Has no indexes
select * from OrdDetOpt
SET STATISTICS IO OFF

The results can back as is:

Table 'OrdDetails'. Scan count 1, logical reads 27999, physical reads 1, read-ahead reads 25218.

Table 'OrdDetOpt'. Scan count 1, logical reads 27998, physical reads 0, read-ahead reads 27998.

why doesn't the indexed table have better statistics and it has to scan the entire table even though there is an indexed identity column?

Also, I couldn't find the DBCC command to flush memory before running these.

thx,

Kat

I am new to using SQL Server and need some help creating lookup fields if it is possible. 

I use the lookup wizard to create lookup fields in access.  Can you do the same in SQL?

I have successfully created relationships in SQL but I want to lookup the related fields during data entry like in Access with a dropdown box with the available options.

I tried to install SQL Server Express, but at the very end it gave me a message saying I don't have the required OS (I'm using Windows XP SP3).  I go to Add/Remove programs, but SQL Server doesn't appear in the list. The folder is still there on my PC, though, taking up space. How can I remove it -- it is safe to just delete the folder?

Hello ,

   Good Morning. I recently started supporting new set of databases from different team and I am having the problem offiguring out how much time Stored procedure is going to take to complete?

Some of the queries take few hours and I am pretty much left in the dark and I don't have historical knowledge of those stored procedures.

I am trying to figure out is there any options available to figure out the estimated completion time for a given query or operation?.

How does other folks solve this problem?

sys.dm_exec_requests DMV's estimated completion time is 0. 

I understand the time to complete a query depends on numerous factors ( CPUS, other running processes, Preemptive/non preemptive mode, blocking, page reads, writes, etc ,etc ).

I am really interested in knowing how other people handle this problem because its new set of databases for me.

Appreciate your help.

Cheers,
I90Runner
