Connecting SAP with an independent SQL database

Dear all,
I need to connect SAP with an independent MSSQL database.
My requirement is to transfer a set of records from my Ztable to a table in SQL database.
I have maintained the settings in DBCO transaction. I maintained DBMS as 'MSS' in DBCO.
send some sample code of how to establish the connection. Is it possible to write data in to SQL database.
How to edit the file tnsnames.ora in application server directories. I heard that for connecting to an oracle database we need to edit this , is it necessary to edit this tnsnames.ora even for connecting with SQL database?
Thanks in advance.
Lakshman

This is not possible.
My suggestion is that you create shell scripts on the unix side that copy the data to the other database.
ARD runs it's own private copy of PostGgreSQL inside the package so it won't interfer with any other SQL databases on the network or even on the machine.

Steps needed or any guidance to connect SAP with DB2,

Hi Experts,
I need detailed steps to connect SAP with DB2 server. If any standard document or any one is having any docs / hints can provide , it would be a great help to me.

Hello Mamata,
If your current ECC 6.0 is also on DB2/400, you can use DBCO - outlined in the following blog.
/people/sap.user72/blog/2006/08/31/configure-dbco-database-multiconnect-on-ibm-i5iseries
If the retail business can be moved to SAP solution, plain SAP RFC just works fine. If not, you can install a SAP gateway instance on DB2.
There are many options. It could be hard to identify the best choice without a detailed review/analysis.
Best regards,
Victor

Connecting to an external MS SQL Database

Hi there,
we are a SaaS business currently running all of our applications on Azure. We now have a few customers in Switzerland and in order to comply with their IT and privacy laws, we have to run the database within Switzerland. Now we can easily get a hosting for
a MS SQL Database in Switzerland but my question is if it's somehow possible to connect a Windows Azure Website and Web Service to a MS SQL DB outside of Azure? I am aware that the performance will not be the best but I first would like to try to showcase
the scenario. Any ideas?

you can have a look at the Azure Hybrid Connect (http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-hybrid-connection-connect-on-premises-sql-server/)

Connecting SAP with Excel (Beginner)

Hello!
I'm new to the SAP scripting. On my company we use lots and lots of Excel spreadsheet lists with sales orders and projects, which is why i need to learn to connect those lists with SAP.
I have a list of sales orders in Excel starting downwards from cell A2 and I want to get the exchange rate on each of the orders from the header of VA03, so that the script copies the currency rate of each sales order next to the order number in the spreadsheet.
How do i do this? :s
Thanks, Mattias

Hi Mattias,
if you have allready worked with Scripting (Recording) you allready have the way to connect excel with SAP
To Connect an existing Instance of SAP with Excel you will need this code:
Public sapsession
Public Sub Connect_SAP()
If Not IsObject(SAPguiApp) Then
Set SAPguiApp = CreateObject("Sapgui.ScriptingCtrl.1")
End If
If Not IsObject(sapsession) Then
Set sapsession = sapConnection.Children(0)
End If
If IsObject(WScript) Then
WScript.ConnectObject sapsession, "on"
WScript.ConnectObject sapApplication, "on"
End If
End Sub
at end of all action you have to destroy all objects
Public Sub Destory_SAP()
set sapsession = nothing
set sapapplication = Nothing
set sapGuiapp = Nothing
End Sub
PS Look for Threads that have the same Title as yours -
There are many in this forum ...

Connecting SAP with VB 2010

Dear gurus
I'm Using Visual Basic 2010 and i want to connect SAP from my applications.
I have find that SAP net connector works only on VB 2003 not for upgraded version.
Can you please guide me
Regards
Saad Nisar

Hi Saad,
The current NCo version is limited to usage with .NET 1.1 and within VS2003.
However, there is a by SAP-documented workaround to enable the NCo to also utilize with .NET 2.0 and later runtime context / and within VS2005 and later: [Using SAP Connector for MS .NET (NCO) in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/92333e6b-0b01-0010-9cbf-fecd62d6c895]
Note also that SAP has a new version of NCo in the pipeline - .NET Connector 3.0 - it might be worth it to try to participate in the beta program. See [SAP announces new release of SAP .NET Connector|http://williamvanstrien.blogspot.com/2010/06/sap-announces-new-release-of-sap-net.html]

OK, so you've got this code here:
private class ButtonListener implements ActionListener {
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e) {
    if (e.getSource () == exit) {
      System.exit(0); // exits the GUI
    if (e.getSource () == snam) {
    if (e.getSource () == id) {
}Perfect fine way to do this; although I think creating anonymous would be a bit cleaner:
snam.addActionListener(new actionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
});But I think that the real question you have is "what do I put for logic when the JButtons are hit?", right?
I would answer that you want to dynamically build your SQL statement changing your ordering based on the button.
So you'd have a method that builds the SQL based on what you pass in - so it takes one argument perhaps?
private static final int NAME = 1;
                         ID = 2;
/* ... some code ... */
snam.addActionListener(new actionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
    buildSQL(NAME);
/* ... some code ... */
private void buildSQL(int type) {
if ( type == NAME ) {
/* ... build SQL by name ... */
else if ( type == ID ) {
/* ... build SQL by id ... */
}That kind of thing.
Or you might choose to have several build methods with no parameter type; each building the SQL differently, and calling whichever one you need. I did not read your entire pgm, so I don't know how you'd want to organize it. You need to ask more specific questions at that point.

BO Enterprise 3.1 SR3 Installation with existing MS SQL database

HI Gurus,
I'm completely new to Business Objects and have been reviewing the installation & planning guides for the installation. I'm hoping to use an existing MS SQL 2008 database as the location for the CMS / Audit. The guides don't really explain in detail the steps to do this, but say this pre-requisite must be in place prior to running the installation.
The section "Setting up an empty database for the CMS" sumarizes the tasks :-
create tablespace, schema or database
create new users/passwords for the CMS / Audit
specify correct permissions to create.modify,delete tables and to create procedures
Does anyone know of any further documentation that expands on the above to detail the steps further ?
or atleast some one could help me step by step in performing steps like creating db, tablespaces, users in MS SQL server. As i have never worked on MS SQL and also with SAP BO.
Kind Regards,
Syed Maqsood Ahmed

Internal server error while connecting to Tandem NonStop SQL database

Hi -
We are trying to connect to the Tandem NonStop SQL database through JDeveloper.
We are using Type4 JDBC driver provided by Tandem NonStop and everything works fine from Database connection to testing the AppModule through the BC4J tester. The VOs return rows perfectly when we test the AppModule.
BUT -
When we try to invoke a jspx page (using embedded OC4J server) with an ADF Read Only table of the ViewObj, we get a "500 Internal Server Error" with following details. (Error listing at the end)
We are using:
JDeveloper 10.1.3.0 SU5
ADF JSF
And the database is NonStop SQL on Tandem NonStop Server S Series box.
Any help to resolve the issue will be highly appreciated. We also face problems when making this as a WebService - detals of which I will post in a new thread.
Thanks in advance,
Saran

Kuba -
I have done exactly as mentioned in the link you have provided except that I am using JSF instead of Struts.
As I have mentioned earlier, if I test the AppModule through the BC4J tester it works fine. I can see my ViewObject with rows from the Tandem database. Only when I run the JSF page do I get the error. Is there something I need to configure in faces-config for accesing Tandme database?

Question on InfoView Multiple Connections opening on SQL Database

Hi, we are using Business Objects XI Release 2 and I am having an ODBC issue to a SQL 2005 database. I have a Crystal XI report that contains 2 parameters and selects roughly 100,000 rows of data and summarizes the data to 1 page. In Crystal Developer it runs fine in several seconds. Within Infoview it runs fine if I do a schedule now and select the parameters. The Issue is if I click on the published report, update the parameters, it then starts to run and run. Looking at the database it opens roughly 32 connections and just keeps opening and closing connections. Since I am invoking infoview through a url it is running on the same server that I can schedule on. I am not sure where or what the problem is, why so many connections open and the report never finishes. Also the connections are bogging down the SQL Database due to high CPU utilization. Any help/insight/explanations would be appreciated.
Thank You

Thanks for the response, see my responses in Italics,
If you try to run the report with multiple connections are you facing this problem, or else is it for all reports.
I am not trying to run for multiple connections intentionally? Is there a setting in the report itself or on the console that could be doing this?
Have tried to run the report other than the same machine where you have sever installed.
I have run the report from 2 different viewers which reside on different machines, both separate from the
database. If I run from Crystal Developer on a desktop it is fine. Also if I schedule in the viewer it is fine. It seems like when I run on demand (not sure if my terminology is correct).
Also try with remote connection to logon to your server and try to run the report and observe if there is any specific error.
I am executing a url that is on the server where Business Objects is installed.

Naveen.

Hi Affar2k,
According to your description, we need to verify if there is no network issue and the Sqlclient version is older than .NET 4.5. You can try to connect to the Windows Azure SQL database via SSMS and check if it can run well. When you
connect to the SQL Azure database via ADO.NET, you need to verify that the server name and passwords are right in the connection string.
For more information, you can review the following article about how to connect to Windows Azure SQL Database using ADO.NET.
