Regarding Sql 8.0 and 3.0

I would like to ask u that if we use Sql 8.0 in our server
and Sql 3.0 at Client Pc which has os windows 98will there will
be problem in our table contents actually there is one table in
which onefield is narration which is of Varchar2(1000) when we
input the narration from d2k and save it and print it will show
all the narration but after some time when we see same narrration
it will show half the narration .

The query should look some thing like this
SELECT B.ID,B.ORDER_DATE,A.ITEM_ID, A.QUANTITY
FROM THE (SELECT LINE_ITEMS FROM ORDERS O WHERE O.ID = 1) A,
ORDERS B
WHERE B.ID = 1
ORDER BY 1,3
on tables
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE ITEM_TYPE AS OBJECT (
ITEM_ID INTEGER,
QUANTITY INTEGER)
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE ITEM_LIST AS TABLE OF ITEM_TYPE
CREATE TABLE ORDERS (
ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
ORDER_DATE DATE,
SHIP_DATE DATE,
LINE_ITEMS ITEM_LIST)
NESTED TABLE LINE_ITEMS STORE AS ITEMS
INSERT INTO ORDERS VALUES (
1,SYSDATE,NULL,
ITEM_LIST(
ITEM_TYPE(1, 22),
ITEM_TYPE(2, 100)))

Unable to install SQL server 2000 and 2005 on Satellite A205-s5831

Hello everyone.
I Needs some helps from all of you.
I have Toshiba Laptop Satellite A205-S5831.
Its Have Windows Vista Home Premium.
And I am unable to install SQL server 2000 and 2005.
I also Unable to Install Windows XP SP2.
Problem is SATA driver.
Plz Help me ...!
Response me

Hi
The Windows XP needs a SATA driver if you want to install it on the notebook with SATA HDD controller.
The SATA driver can be found in the Intel Storage Manager.
I would recommend using the nLite program to include a SATA driver into the new Windows XP CD and then to boot from the new created XP CD.
Here you will find all details regarding the nLite:

Regarding SQL server issue;
Maybe you will be able to install in on Windows XP. Possibly there is a compatibility issue between the Vista and the SQL server software

Need help understanding MS SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0 and user access / priviledges.

Having Problems with connections and access. I have spent the last 2 days reading various threads regarding SQL Reporting Services pertaining to access and connections.
First, let me explain what I have done to date.
1) I am using Windows 7 - Home Premium.
2) I downloaded and installed MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Express. This was successful.
3) I downloaded Report Server 3.0 - This was successful.
4) In IE, I tried logging onto http://servername/reports, but this failed. After logging into IE
via ' Run Administrator', I was able to access URL.
Next, I updated the security / trust sites as explained in the
threads
Next, I went to Folder Setting and added my user name and granted all roles (Browser,
Content Manager, My
Reports, Publisher and Report Builder).
5) Now, I can log into Http://servername/reports using my normal windows 7 user account.
6) Next, I opened Report Builder 3.0. However, I am having trouble connecting to report
server. I tried connecting with
http://servername/reports, but this failed.
However, If I change URL to http://servername/reportserver, it works. BUT NOW, I have
another problem. When I
execute the RUN button to create report, I get a permission
error. "PERMISSION GRANTED TO USER ARE
INSUFFICIENT FOR PERFORMING THIS OPERATION".
7) Finally, I can not save reports to http://servername/reportserver when I select "Recent
Site and Servers". ERROR
MESSAGE: UNABLE TO OPEN OR SAVE REPORT
8) In my Reporting Services Configuration Manager:
Web URL = http://servername:80/ReportServer
Report Manager URL = http://servername:80/reports.
What is strange, the Report Manager URL works for IE URL and WEB URL works for
Report Builder connect (Even though it really does not work).
THREE QUESTIONS:
1) What URL should I use to connect in Report Builder.
2) How do I update my normal Windows 7 user so I can run reports when I connect to report
builder.
3) How can I save my reports so they are displayed in IE Reporting services. Note: I was
able to save report to
documents folder and import into IE Reporting Services.
4) And finally, is it possible to add report builder 3.0 as a tab in my IE Reporting Services. I
save seen samples of Reporting Services screens where the instructor has Report Builder
tab.
Thanks
Dan

To answer question 1... it should connect through /ReportServer
http://bretstateham.com/reporting-services-architecture-diagram%E2%80%A6/
Report Builder 3.0 is not a web application, it is a client side application can be used using the click-once or downloaded from Microsoft's website. If you are having issues, you might download and install it and try running it as an administrator.

PL/SQL 101 : Cursors and SQL Projection

PL/SQL 101 : Cursors and SQL Projection
This is not a question, it's a forum article, in reponse to the number of questions we get regarding a "dynamic number of columns" or "rows to columns"
There are two integral parts to an SQL Select statement that relate to what data is selected. One is Projection and the other is Selection:-
Selection is the one that we always recognise and use as it forms the WHERE clause of the select statement, and hence selects which rows of data are queried.
The other, SQL Projection is the one that is less understood, and the one that this article will help to explain.
In short, SQL Projection is the collective name for the columns that are Selected and returned from a query.
So what? Big deal eh? Why do we need to know this?
The reason for knowing this is that many people are not aware of when SQL projection comes into play when you issue a select statement. So let's take a basic query...
First create some test data...
create table proj_test as
select 1 as id, 1 as rn, 'Fred' as nm from dual union all
select 1,2,'Bloggs' from dual union all
select 2,1,'Scott' from dual union all
select 2,2,'Smith' from dual union all
select 3,1,'Jim' from dual union all
select 3,2,'Jones' from dual
... and now query that data...
SQL> select * from proj_test;
         ID         RN NM
         1          1 Fred
         1          2 Bloggs
         2          1 Scott
         2          2 Smith
         3          1 Jim
         3          2 Jones
6 rows selected.
OK, so what is that query actually doing?
To know that we need to consider that all queries are cursors and all cursors are processed in a set manner, roughly speaking...
1. The cursor is opened
2. The query is parsed
3. The query is described to know the projection (what columns are going to be returned, names, datatypes etc.)
4. Bind variables are bound in
5. The query is executed to apply the selection and identify the data to be retrieved
6. A row of data is fetched
7. The data values from the columns within that row are extracted into the known projection
8. Step 6 and 7 are repeated until there is no more data or another condition ceases the fetching
9. The cursor is closed
The purpose of the projection being determined is so that the internal processing of the cursor can allocate memory etc. ready to fetch the data into. We won't get to see that memory allocation happening easily, but we can see the same query being executed in these steps if we do it programatically using the dbms_sql package...

So, what's really the point in knowing when SQL Projection occurs in a query?
Well, we get many questions asking "How do I convert rows to columns?" (otherwise known as a pivot) or questions like "How can I get the data back from a dynamic query with different columns?"
Let's look at a regular pivot. We would normally do something like...
SQL> select id
2        ,max(decode(rn,1,nm)) as nm_1
3        ,max(decode(rn,2,nm)) as nm_2
4 from proj_test
5 group by id
6 /
        ID NM_1   NM_2
         1 Fred   Bloggs
         2 Scott Smith
         3 Jim    Jones
(or, in 11g, use the new PIVOT statement)
but many of these questioners don't understand it when they say their issue is that, they have an unknown number of rows and don't know how many columns it will have, and they are told that you can't do that in a single SQL statement. e.g.
SQL> insert into proj_test (id, rn, nm) values (1,3,'Freddy');
1 row created.
SQL> select id
2        ,max(decode(rn,1,nm)) as nm_1
3        ,max(decode(rn,2,nm)) as nm_2
4 from proj_test
5 group by id
6 /
        ID NM_1   NM_2
         1 Fred   Bloggs
         2 Scott Smith
         3 Jim    Jones
... it's not giving us this 3rd entry as a new column and we can only get that by writing the expected columns into the query, but then what if more columns are added after that etc.
If we look back at the steps of a cursor we see again that the description and projection of what columns are returned by a query happens before any data is fetched back.
Because of this, it's not possible to have the query return back a number of columns that are based on the data itself, as no data has been fetched at the point the projection is required.
So, what is the answer to getting an unknown number of columns in the output?
1) The most obvious answer is, don't use SQL to try and pivot your data. Pivoting of data is more of a reporting requirement and most reporting tools include the ability to pivot data either as part of the initial report generation or on-the-fly at the users request. The main point about using the reporting tools is that they query the data first and then the pivoting is simply a case of manipulating the display of those results, which can be dynamically determined by the reporting tool based on what data there is.
2) The other answer is to write dynamic SQL. Because you're not going to know the number of columns, this isn't just a simple case of building up a SQL query as a string and passing it to the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE command within PL/SQL, because you won't have a suitable structure to read the results back into as those structures must have a known number of variables for each of the columns at design time, before the data is know. As such, inside PL/SQL code, you would have to use the DBMS_SQL package, just like in the code above that showed the workings of a cursor, as the columns there are referenced by position rather than name, and you have to deal with each column seperately. What you do with each column is up to you... store them in an array/collection, process them as you get them, or whatever. They key thing though with doing this is that, just like the reporting tools, you would need to process the data first to determine what your SQL projection is, before you execute the query to fetch the data in the format you want e.g.
create or replace procedure dyn_pivot is
v_sql varchar2(32767);
-- cursor to find out the maximum number of projected columns required
-- by looking at the data
cursor cur_proj_test is
    select distinct rn
    from   proj_test
    order by rn;
begin
v_sql := 'select id';
for i in cur_proj_test
loop
    -- dynamically add to the projection for the query
    v_sql := v_sql||',max(decode(rn,'||i.rn||',nm)) as nm_'||i.rn;
end loop;
v_sql := v_sql||' from proj_test group by id order by id';
dbms_output.put_line('Dynamic SQL Statement:-'||chr(10)||v_sql||chr(10)||chr(10));
-- call our DBMS_SQL procedure to process the query with it's dynamic projection
process_cursor(v_sql);
end;
SQL> exec dyn_pivot;

Of course there are other methods, using dynamically generated scripts etc. (see Re: 4. How do I convert rows to columns?), but the above simply demonstrates that:-
a) having a dynamic projection requires two passes of the data; one to dynamically generate the query and another to actually query the data,
b) it is not a good idea in most cases as it requires code to handle the results dynamically rather than being able to simply query directly into a known structure or variables, and
c) a simple SQL statement cannot have a dynamic projection.
Most importantly, dynamic queries prevent validation of your queries at the time your code is compiled, so the compiler can't check that the column names are correct or the tables names, or that the actual syntax of the generated query is correct. This only happens at run-time, and depending upon the complexity of your dynamic query, some problems may only be experienced under certain conditions. In effect you are writing queries that are harder to validate and could potentially have bugs in them that would are not apparent until they get to a run time environment. Dynamic queries can also introduce the possibility of SQL injection (a potential security risk), especially if a user is supplying a string value into the query from an interface.
To summarise:-
The projection of an SQL statement must be known by the SQL engine before any data is fetched, so don't expect SQL to magically create columns on-the-fly based on the data it's retrieving back; and, if you find yourself thinking of using dynamic SQL to get around it, just take a step back and see if what you are trying to achieve may be better done elsewhere, such as in a reporting tool or the user interface.
Other articles in the PL/SQL 101 series:-
PL/SQL 101 : Understanding Ref Cursors
PL/SQL 101 : Exception Handling

excellent article. However there is one thing which is slightly erroneous. You don't need a type to be declared in the database to fetch the data, but you do need to declare a type;
here is one of my unit test scripts that does just that.
DECLARE
PN_CARDAPPL_ID NUMBER;
v_Return Cci_Standard.ref_cursor;
type getcardapplattrval_recordtype
Is record
(cardappl_id ci_cardapplattrvalue.cardappl_ID%TYPE,
tag ci_cardapplattrvalue.tag%TYPE,
value ci_cardapplattrvalue.value%TYPE
getcardapplattrvalue_record getcardapplattrval_recordtype;
BEGIN
PN_CARDAPPL_ID := 1; --value must be supplied
v_Return := CCI_GETCUSTCARD.GETCARDAPPLATTRVALUE(
PN_CARDAPPL_ID => PN_CARDAPPL_ID
loop
fetch v_return
into getcardapplattrvalue_record;
dbms_output.put_line('Cardappl_id=>'||getcardapplattrvalue_record.cardappl_id);
dbms_output.put_line('Tag =>'||getcardapplattrvalue_record.tag);
dbms_output.put_line('Value =>'||getcardapplattrvalue_record.value);
exit when v_Return%NOTFOUND;

SQL Server Express and Visual Studio 2013

In February I installed Visual Studio 2013 Professional. Looking in the Control Panel at all my installed programs, I see that I have a bunch of SQL server-related programs loaded, from the 2013 install and also from installs of previous Visual Studio versions.
I've never done a thing with SQL server express, and am completely clueless about using it. I've already wanted to take a crack at it but it always seemed too daunting, so I backed off. It seems, however, that over the years the integration of SQL Server Express
with Visual Studio is getting more and more seamless. Here is a list of all the SQL Server-related programs on my computer, with the ones installed automatically from the Visual Studio 2013 install bolded so they'll stand out. What I'm wondering is if I have
everything I need to use SQL Server Express with Visual Studio 2013:

SQL Server Agent and Jobs and executing @EventData

I have a SQL Server Agent Job and within it a Job Step which states "Execute Report Subscriptions" and a command which has...
exec msdb.dbo.sp_start_job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' --9:07 subscription
GO
WAITFOR DELAY '00:08';
Now, I find within SQL Server Agent the Job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' and its step command which is...
exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962'
How can I drill-down further into the @EventData 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' to see what it does? I do not see 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' within SQL Server Agent and Jobs or am I way off base here as to what exactly the @EventData
parameter seems to be?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP,
According to your description, you need to know the what does SQL Server Reporting Services do when fire a subscription, right?
When you create a subscription several things are added to the RS server
A row is placed in the Subscriptions table identifying the name of the report, along with parameter settings, data driven query info and so on to process the subscription
A row is placed in the Schedule and ReportSchedule tables with the timing of the subscription
A SQL Server Agent job is created to control the scheduled execution of the report, and this is stored in the sysjobs and sysjobsteps of the MSDB database.
When the subscription runs several things happen
The SQL Server Agent job fires and puts a row in the Event table in the RS catalog with the settings necessary to process the subscription
The RS server service has a limited number of threads (2 per CPU) that poll the Event table every few seconds looking for subscriptions to process
When it finds an event, it puts a row in the Notifications table and starts processing the subscription
Please refer to the links below to see the details.

? Regarding 'SQL user-defined function' execution performance ?

Hi All,
I have an user-defined function in SQL which am using in a SQL select statement and i found that the execution time taken by the user-defined function is 9-10 minutes as a result of which my whole query execution time is affected.
How to i improvise the execution time. Should i do some sort of scheduling for executing the user-defined functions only. Am new to the database world. Your early response with a good suggestion would really be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Try to read SQL tuning documents along with TkProf. Then only you will be able to detect the problem.
There is no instant method by which you can solve this problem.
But, you can get idea from this samples.

Doubt regarding SQL execution

Hi Friends,
Am using Oracle 10g DB - 10.2.0.3.0
I have some basic doubts regarding sql query execution by Oracle.
Say, Am executing a query from a toad/sqlplus session for the first time, it takes 10 secs then 1 sec and so on.
Same thing happens for every 15 minutes.(Any specific reason for this ??).
It takes more time when it executes first because of parsing and all those stuff but from then on it picks from the
shared pool right??.. How long will it be there in Shared Pool does Oracle maintain any specific time period to clear that query from shared pool memory. How does Oracle handle this.
Another thing is, say, I have a report query, I run this query monthly. What will be the execution time when I run this query each and every month. Will Oracle parse this query everytime I run. How do I improve the performance in this situation (May sound odd :)).
Regards,
Marlon

Say, Am executing a query from a toad/sqlplus session for the first time, it takes 10 secs then 1 sec and so on.
Same thing happens for every 15 minutes.(Any specific reason for this ??).
It takes more time when it executes first because of parsing and all those stuff but from then on it picks from the
shared pool right??.. How long will it be there in Shared Pool does Oracle maintain any specific time period to clear that query from shared pool memory. How does Oracle handle this. Share Pool caches the SQL statement. So when you execute the same SQL for the second time it goes for a soft parse. But this is not the only reason for the query to execute faster the second time. The time difference between a soft parse and hard parse is very minimal. So it really does not matter unless you are executing the same query several number of times.
The thing that really matters is the Data Buffer Cache. That is the rows that are selected by your query are cached into the Data buffer that is available in the SGA. So for the next time when you run the same query the IO is reduced as the data is available in the memory and you don't have to go to your disk to get the data.
But the data in Data Buffer is not persistent, meaning it follows the FIFO rule. That is first in first out. When the Data Buffer is full the content of the buffer is removed in the FIFO order.
Another thing is, say, I have a report query, I run this query monthly. What will be the execution time when I run this query each and every month. Will Oracle parse this query every time I run. How do I improve the performance in this situation (May sound odd :)). Like the Data Buffer the Shared Pool is also maintained in the FIFO order. So if the query is still in the Shared Pool the query will be soft parsed else it will be hard parsed. But its very rare that you will have a query in your Shared Pool for a month.

SQL performance 9i and 10g

Hi guys,
I have question regarding sql fetching slow response issue in 10g compared to 9i. Have enabled the 10046 trace the actual CPU and Elapsed time of that query.
cpu = cpu time in seconds executing
elapsed = elapsed time in seconds executing
rows = number of rows processed by the fetch or execute call
SQL == Running on 9i
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 1 0.01 0.01 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 13295 1.39 1.55 513 14742 0 13294
total 13297 1.40 1.56 513 14742 0 13294
SQL == Running on 10g
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 1 0.01 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 13305 1.41 1.32 0 14621 0 13304
total 13307 1.42 1.32 0 14621 0 13304
They are running quite fast in 9i and 10g Database with the trace report. However, there has slow response issue on 10g.
E.g SQL> set time on
SQL> set timing on
---- fetching records on screen
---- truncated
13304 returned.
00:15:21
SQL>
In 9i, it only takes 2 mins to return the sqlplus prompt, but take at least 15 mins to return in 10g. Do you have any idea?
I have raised the issue with Oracle Support, the the OSS said.. your 10046 trace is good and take only 1-2 sec. And he didn't follow after that. Please help if you have idea. Thanks
Best Regards,
Vbeer.

Request: PL/SQL, External Table and SQL Loader

I see lately Questions asked in SQL and PL/SQL forum regarding SQL Loader and External Table are being moved to {forum:id=732}.
Being an PL/SQL developer for some time now i feel External Table (and if i may, SQL Loader and DBMS_DATAPUMP) are very much an integral part of a PL/SQL development and the question related to these topics are well suited in SQL and PL/SQL forum. Even in SQL and PL/SQL FAQ we have exclusive content that discuss on these topics {message:id=9360007}
So i would like to request the moderators to consider not moving such questions out of the SQL and PL/SQL forum.
Thanks,
Karthick.

Stopping sql server services while applying Service pack On SQL server 2008 and 2008 R2

Hi,
I am planning to apply service pack 3 for SQL 2008 R2 and Service pack 4 for SQL server 2008. This is my first time and I am applying first QA and DEV environment. I have one confusion. In cluster once you fail over sql resources to active node all of the
sql services including SQLSERVER and Agent are automatically stopped in passive node where we apply service pack. But in Stand alone, The services are not automatically stopped. Do I need to manually stop those services like SQLSERVER, Agent, Browser
and others if any before I start applying service pack?
Early Response is highly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance

Hello,
You don’t need to stop SQL Server services. Let SQL Server setup do it as needed.
Please read the following article for the cluster you would like to update:

So.. do we have to pay for the feature regarding sql tuning advisor?
Can we use the dbms_sqltune package for free in oracle?
No, you need the license. Please read below,

I `m doing below test on my Linux. I installed an oracle on it and only for study purpose so didn`t pay.
As you can see. I got no output.

SQL server 2000 and java

Hi all,
i am about to developpe a java application that has to do the following tasks:
1. detect all SQL server existing databases .
2. for every database (SQL server database) be able to connect to the chosen database and detect all the tables Regarding every SQL server database.
for the first point ,i thought about searching my hole system for the files of SQL server databases with the criteria of its extension (.SQL serverEXtension database file). But i don't know if this method is efficient and if there are not other methods for this purpose ?!
for the second point i'm wondering if there exist methods or Classes that return the Set of all the tables within a given SQL server database ; and also return the Set of the Fields (Attributes )within this given database.
It remains one important point: how to connect to a SQL Server database from a java Program.
I'm waiting for your hints and ideas... Thanks indeed.

Try DatabaseMetaData for databases, tables and fields. There's even more information you can get from it, check the API documentation.

Communication Failing with Corrupted Chars . Sql Server 2000 and AS400

Hi Experts,
I am facing this below error after 9 yrs. sql server 2000 and As400 on prod server. while on dev and stage it's running properly. Here username is ABCD, while it's showing BCD
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "" reported an error. Authentication failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7399) Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "xxxxx".
[SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7303) OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
[SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7412) OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server returned message "[IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=8001 - CWBSY0001 -
User BCD on server does not exist, Password length = 8, Prompt Mode = Never, System IP Address = "xxxxx". [SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7412). The step failed.
Here ABCD user is also disabling/locking the profile on AS400 server.
When we tried on Dev server, linked server through DSN working properly. Last time when it appeared 2 yrs ago, it resolved automatically. but now more than 10 days passed and still Failing.
Please Guide Me.
Regards,
Manish

So this setup has worked for nine years, and all of a sudden stopped working with this error message? Does not look trivial...
What does Here ABCD user is also disabling/locking the profile on AS400 server mean? Is ABCD able to log in directly on the AS400 box?
One possibility is that the user ABCD has been dropped or disabled, and then there is a bug in the ODBC driver where the first character of the username is distorted in the error message. I note that there are two spaces between "User" and "BCD".
The other possibility is that the AS400 is receiving a login attempt from BCD (or something that ends in BCD with an invisible leading character). This sounds very difficult to troubleshoot...
