Reporting from a MS SQL Server database

Hi,
I'm trying to build an interface with JSP and J2SE for a MS SQL Server database, and I would like to know if there are any existing technologies that would facilitate report generation. I'm aware of Crystal Reports for JBuilder but I would prefer a free solution. Thanks in advance!

How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?

This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013. The development environment is found below at [A]. I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2
database (.mdf) that exists online. I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file. Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from
an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems). So I'm looking for another way. What I did was create
(or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot"
is the format it seems). It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
So my question is:
1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data? What tool do I use? I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx
and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio? I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission
to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013? I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework. Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database
(CRUD), but it remains online. Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy? I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on
my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
Thank you,
Paul

Thanks but these links are too general to help.
"2. what do you mean by online file?" - I mean the SQL Server database file is on a remote web server that I rent from, but I am not the administrator of. I can access my database using SQL Server Authentication, but nothing more.
Paul
What do you mean by too general? It explains on how you can use data tier application to create and deploy databases
May be this will help you to understand better

How can I get the data array from SQL Server Database?

Hi,
I can write a data array(2D)into a table of my SQL Server Database. The data array was writen to a column with image type. I know a data array is transformed a binary string when writing into database, but I dont know how to get the data array when I fetch the binary string from database.
My question is:
How to transform the binary string into data array? which vi's should I use? I have tried unflatten from string but failed.
Any response is appriciated.

In order to use Unflatten from string you first need to Flatten it
before writing it. Also depending on the database driver, the returned
data may actually not be binary but Hexadecimal encoded ASCII which you
would first have to decode to binray.

Sharepoint 2013 SSRS Interaction with Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services connecting to Sql Server 2008 R2 database

Hi
I'm working on upgrading sharepoint 2010 to sharepoint 2013 with sql server 2008 r2. I've ran into some problems but have been able to get a test farm upgraded. However to run SSRS 2013 it seems Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services are required. Upgrading
to a full sql server 2012 database isn't an option. I know that sql server 2012 reporting services can use sql server 2008 r2 as a catalog and content database so I was wondering could this be a workaround? Importantly would I need a separate machine/virtual
machine to host sql server 2012 reporting services? or could it live on the sql server 2008 r2 machine? Any pointers appreciated. Thanks Dan

Remember that SSRS must be deployed on the SharePoint server. Having said that, yes you can install SSRS 2012 SP1 on a server running SQL 2008 R2. And yes, you can use 2008 R2 as your Database Engine server while SSRS 2012 SP1 runs on the SharePoint server.

JAVA, sqlserver - Need to load an image from the sql server database

hi,
I need to load an image from the sql server database using java. I have connected to the database and getting all other records except the records for a photo (datatype = LONGVARBINARY) and Remarks (datatype = LONGVARCHAR).
I am using java and sql server db. The photo and remarks are stored in the db. and i need to show the image and the remarks fetching them from there.
I get the error :
Thread-9 org.hibernate.MappingException: No Dialect mapping for JDBC type: -1
How can I achieve this?
Thanks,
Gargi

Exactly. And are you using MySQL?
No. You are using Microsoft SQL server if I have to believe your initial post. A quick google tells me that the dialect class to use is:
org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect

How can i Migrate a database from DB2 to SQL Server 2008r2.

Hi Gurus,
Kindly help me letting me know the process for migrating the database from DB2 to SQL Server.
1) Is there any way to migrate a database from DB2 to SqlServer. (My assumption is we can not migrate database, if wrong correct me gurus).
2) Or we can only transfer data from that DB2 database to SQL Server (Using SSIS packages).
Please help me knowing the process to migrate the data from DB2 server to MSSQL server. Even am reading the documents available in the web.
Thanks in advance.. :)

Microsoft provide a migration assistant for DB2 to SQL Server:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45296
SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) is a free supported tool from Microsoft that simplifies database migration process from DB2 to SQL Server and Azure SQL DB. SSMA automates all aspects of migration including migration assessment analysis, schema and
SQL statement conversion and data migration.
Hope that helps

SQL server Database - Command based Crystal reports parameters issue

Hi,
We are migrating Oracle to SQL server database and trying to point our crystal reports to new database.
In command based reports, the parameters are defined in the where clause like this
(' All' in {?Country} or loc.country in {?Country} )
On modifying the report script to ANSI standard, loc.country in {?Country} gets recognized by Crystal but 'All' in {?Country} does not work.
I am pretty sure that it should be defined in a different way,but not able to figure out.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Nithya

Report with sql server database

hi
i m trying to create a report for sql server database
first time it was developed successfully but when i tried to run it next time it throws error
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:
S1000 [Microsoft SQL Server Driver] Connection is busy with results for another hstmt
now today when i tried to develop a new report it shows two new errors:
1.
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:

2.
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:

Srini,
yes you can use report Buider with Sql Server through jdbc driver.
When you define the report datasource, you just have to set the JDBC conection infos.

Creation of database link from oracle to sql server 2000

Hi
I need to create a database link from oracle to sql server 2000.

Assuming your Oracle database is running on Windows, you can set up a database link using ODBC using Heterogeneous Services and Generic Connectivity, but there are some functional limitations (i.e. no two-phase commits). If you can live with those limitations but aren't on Windows, you can generally purchase an ODBC driver for your operating system that will connect to SQL Server through someone like DataDirect and still use Generic Connectivity. If you cannot live with those limitations, you can purchase one of Oracle's Transparent Gateway products (though this can get somewhat pricey).
What version of Oracle are you on?
What operating system(s) are you using?
What are you going to use the database link for?
