  • Unspecified error while installing sql server management studio 2012.

    HI,
    I am trying to install microsoft sql server 2012 service pack 1 management studio express. Its throwing "unspecified error".

    Repies will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I have seen in the past that error and is generally related to remnants
    from previous installations of SQL Server. Manually uninstalling the remnants may help as explained on the following resources:

  • SQL Server Management Studio has stopped working when changing fonts and colors

    I installed sql server management studio 2012 about 3 months ago to test drive and from time to time I'll attempt to change my background color of the TSql editor "In the fonts and colors option under tools"; however, the entire studio crashes
    and restarts.
    This has been ongoing since I first installed it 3 or 4 months ago, and have waited on posting to a fourm for help, assuming I am not the only one this is happening to I've waited for an update that might fix the issue.
    I've got to start on some heavy scripting and that god awful white background kills my eyes. I've got to have a black background or my work day is cut off by about 3 hours becuase of strain.
    What can I provide to someone that would help me with this?
    Thank you,

  • Problem to create "New Database Diagram" in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio for SQL Server 2012 SQL Express

    Hi,
    I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express edition (name of installation media: en_sql_server_2012_express_edition_with_advanced_services_x64.exe) from MSDN and I have installed the application on my pc with Windows 7 Exterprise.
    Everything is working fine except when I am trying to create "New Database Diagram", where I recieve following error message:
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
    Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop)
    BUTTONS:
    OK
    I have tried two times to reinstall SQL Server 2012 Express and I have installed Cumulative Update #3 for SQL Server 2012 and restarted the machine, but I have still the same problem with the same error message.
    Installed the following fixes:
    1) 2012_RTM_DAC_CU3_2723749_11_0_2332_x64
    2) SQLServer2012_RTM_CU3_2723749_11_0_2332_x64
    These files was installed successful.
    How can I solve the problem?

    Hi Jan,
    Have you installed Visual Studio in your machine?
    The problem seems to be related to installing and uninstalling the VS 2011 RC0 program.
    The workaround involves copying the files from another PC with SQL 2008 or 2012 from one machine to another. Just replace this folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\MSDesigners8
    See also the following for further details:

  • How to create a package without BIDS in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    I have inherited some SSIS packages that I found I can edit by opening the .dtsx file in my local copy of Microsoft SQL Server management studio.  I then get Control Flow tab, Data Flow tab etc.  I can add or change or delete any of the control
    or data flows.  I have found that if I use the same path to the local file where the packages are stored that exists on the server, I can edit the dtsx file on my local machine and copy the dtsx file to the server into the same directory structure and
    sucessfully execute the package on the SQL 2008 server.
    I have VS 2010 installed.  I have read that I have to install VS 2008 to use BIDS from within VS.  However, this has not worked out very well.  Since I can basically create a new package by deleteing all of the control and data flows from
    an existing package, I am in pretty good shape.  However, I would just like to know if there is a way to create a new dtsx file from within Microsoft SQL Server management studio.  Also one thing I have not been able to change is the event handler
    name or package exploration name....it is just an annoyance since it does not cause any problems, just would like to be able to rename it.   

    Hi Fred,
    We cannot develop SSIS package in SQL Server Management Studio. If we use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, we can save it as a package but the package is rather simple.
    We use Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) or SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) to develop SSIS packages. To develop SSIS 2008 packages, we must use BIDS installed by SQL Server 2008, and the BIDS 2008 can only be integrated with Visual Studio 2008.
    To develop SSIS 2012 packages, we use the SSDT installed by SQL Server 2012 which uses Visual Studio 2010 shell and can only be integrated with Visual Studio 2010.
    Different versions of SSIS package have different package formats/schemas. If you can create SSIS packages project in you Visual Studio 2010, it means that you have installed SSDT already, and the packages you design are SSIS 2012 packages. If you open and
    eidt SSIS 2008 packages in you Visual Studio 2010, the packages will be upgraded to SSIS 2012 package format. SSIS 2012 packages cannot be downgraded to SSIS 2008 packages or deployed to SSIS 2008 server.

  • Error Message from Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    I have problem editing the views that I created.  I never have this problem before and I don't know if
    I have touched something on the pane that alters my viewing on Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.  For example, if I want to edit the top 200 rows of my view called dbo.sl_admission_reg9, it will give me this error:
    Invalid prefix of suffix characters (MS Viual Database Tools).
    Please help.
    Thank you very much.
    Sally

    Are you trying to edit the top 200 rows of a SQL Server 2012 database using the 2008 R2 SQL Server Management
    Stud? If so you just need to upgrade SQL Server Management Studio to 2012 or edit the rows using a SQL query.

  • Impossible to open .dtproje file after re-installing SQL Server Management Studio

    Hi all,
    today, after re-installing SQL Server Management Studio from a package downloaded from MS web site (SQLManagementStudio_x64_FRA.exe), I tried to open a SSIS package file via Visual Studio and I get a message stating that  this type of project (.dtproj)
    is not supported.
    Here are the events that lead to this problem:
    We have SQL Server 2005 installed on a server and are planning to migrate to SQL Server 2012.
    1 - Earlier this year, to solve a problem that we had with the SSMS client, we installed SSMS 2012 client on my station.
    At this point, it worked fine for SSMS and when I tried to access SSIS it converted the packages  to SSIS 2012 and it worked fine too.
    2 - Yesterday, I tried to access SSMS and I had the message that the test period had expired; at this point I could open a SSIS file.
    3 - To solve the problem with SSMS we decided to re-install it. It worked fine for SSMS but now I am not able to open a SSIS file.
    Do you have any idea of what the problem is and what should I do to solve it?
    It seems that there are some SSIS component missing, how could I get them back?

    You are welcome Sylviep,
    Based on what I see you want to create BI projects (e.g. a SSIS project), thus it will be enough to install SSDT
    which is part of the SQL Server installation media. I do not see why you would re-install SQL Server itself.

  • What version of SQL Server Management Studio do I need?

    I need to install SQL Server Management Studio on my windows 8.1 PRO 64-bit pc to manage SQL server 2008 R2. do I download the 2014 or 2012  or 2008 version?

    Hello,
    Install the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) of the same version of SQL Server you have installed.
    If you modify maintenance plans using a newer version of SSMS, you then cannot use a lower version of SSMS to modify/change it again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio version 11.0 to write SQL queries for "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database"

    Hi, Can I use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio version 11.0 to write SQL queries for "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database" ?
    When I use Connect Object Explorer, the "Connect to Server" dialog box which pops up has only 4 selections in the Server Type Drop Down List. They are Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services & Integration Services. I have read
    somewhere that there should be a compact database option. but I do not see it.
    What I would like to do is use free form SQL Queries against the tables in "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database" .
    Once I have validated these queries, then I will use them in my Visual Studio 2012 C#, ASP.NET application. I created the Local Database using Visual Studio 2012 for use by my application.
    Thank you for your help..

    Hello,
    With SSMS 2005 we have had the Option to work with SQL CE database files, but not with higher Version of SSMS.
    You can use the free SQL CE Toolbax instead; see

  • How to register VSPackage into SQL Server Management Studio?

    Hi All,
    I am a newer to VSPackage, I want to create a VSPackage for SQL Server Management Studio(SSMS), now I can create a VSPackage project and debug it in Visual Studio but don't know how to debug it in SQL Server Management Studio and how to deploy VSPackage to
    SSMS by MSI? Thanks

    By the way I find a extension.vsixmanifest file and some .pkgdef files under
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio\Extensions\  folder, and they are very similar with VSPackage files. Do know this is useful or not.
    Hi Vic Zhang,
    After some research, There are some notes. SQL Server Management Studio is built upon the Visual Studio Isolated Shell, which inherently supports extensibility (add-ins/plug-ins). It is possible to tap into the Visual Studio extensibility services to surface
    custom capabilities within SQL Server Management Studio; however, we do not discourage this, keep in mind that such extensibility is not supported, so there may be issues with backward/forward compatibility. Microsoft does not publish documentation for extending
    SQL Server Management Studio.
    If you want to debug VSPackeage about SSMS, I recommend you debug in Visual Studio and not in SSMS, open the project and attach to the process of SSMS.exe, then debug it.
    About the issue of finding the “RootKey”, a .pkgdef file is way to encapsulate application configuration information in an easily editable, distributable, and deployable form. And it registers the Extension Manager (which is written as a VS Package). If
    you install SQL Server 2012, the .pkgdef of SSMS is located in the following path, you can check the “RootKey” in this .pkgdef file.
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio
    There is detail about a PkgDef, you can review the following article.

  • Import multiple files using sql server management studio

    Using sql server management studio I want to do 2 things.
    - Import all txt files from a directory as tables into my DB.
    - Add an additional field to each new table which contains the table name.
    Can anyone help me?

    There are couple of ways to do it:
    File naming conventions : YourFileName_SystemId.txt
    You can create one extra column in table or may be name a table with system id. Then after loading the data you can update that column with the system id.
       components required:
     ForEachLoopContainer - To get file and store file name in a variable
     Expression Task (if SSIS 2012 or above) or variable expression or script task to seperate file name from systemId
     Data Flow Task - to load data
     Execute SQL Task - to update last column or specific table based on precedence constraints  
    Note: You can also add extra column in data flow via
    derived column transformation.
    Ex.:
    Load file via foreach loop
    Split string via seprator
    2: Loading different system file in different folder
    you can have predefined folder structure ex: SystemId1, SyetemId2 etc and can download respective txt file in their system folder. Then you can easily identity which file belong to which system and then load it to the respective table.
    3: Use first row of text file to hold the system value
    Use first row to have the system id and then skip row while fetching data. 
    Note: Then you have to read first row through script task to get the system id.
    hope this will help

    I am trying to import data from excel into my database tables in SQL Server management studio and the import facility just doesn't appear to be available. Could this be a permissions or setup issue? Apologies if I am posting in wrong area as I am new to
    this 
    Excel data can be imported to SQL easily by using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard which is available in SQL Server management Studio itself.
    Right click on Database then select Task then Import data. Wizard opens up and just follow the instructions.
    Please feel free to revert in case if you need additional details.
