When installing Discoverer for ODBC use your first step is to do a custom install so that you can install the ODBC drivers. Then you will need to setup an ODBC server connection.

the question is can I do the same for sql server express 2008,2012, and 2014?
can I install and use sql server express 2008, 2012 and 2014 on an azure vm? specifically

2nd scenario
I change my report using OLE DB (ADO) -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server -> checked on Integrated Security. I just choose Server, and Database. I assume me using Windows Authentication
When in a runtime, there's no dialog box as above. My report display the data as expected. really cool
Look's like, when report using SQL Server Authentication there's some problem. but, when report using Windows Authentication, it's fine.
I'm looking for comment. Please help me

Hello,
MS SQL Server 2008 requires you to install the MS Client Tools for 2008.
Once install then update all of your reports to use the SQL Native 10 as the OLE DB driver.

Does SAP use SQL server's snapshot and transactional replication?

Gurus:
Could you help with this?
Does SAP use SQL server's snapshot and transactional replication?
Thanks!

Hi Christy,
no, SAP does not directly leverage these functions.
But none the less, it is up to you to use these on your system. I regulary use the snapshot functionality when applying Support Packages. In case somehing goes wrong a snapshot is the easiest way to roll back the import process (not exactly the best choice when talking about production and users keep on working while importing).
Have a look at this [document |http://download.microsoft.com/download/d/9/4/d948f981-926e-40fa-a026-5bfcf076d9b9/SAP_SQL2005_Best Practices.doc]. It deals with Best Practices and also covers snapshot, replication and mirroring.

Any comments on speed and robustness of RH Server running on Windows 7 and using SQL Server Express?

Hi. Can anyone comment on their experience using RH Server on Windows 7 and using SQL Server Express? That is, is it stable and fast enough for delivering Web Help Pro documentation to support occasional viewer browses. (We would have approx 250 customers who would occasionally access the HTML docs that support our software.)
Our company is not keen on spending $s on Windows Server and an MS or Oracle database.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kurt. You should have no problems with that configuration and user numbers. See Recommended OS/database combinations for RoboHelp Server « Technical Communication Suite

FWIW, my own (ugh) install of 11.1.1.3 32 bit on my laptop (oh, soon I am going to jettison this thing and move to a 32 gig laptop) I am using SQL Server 2005. A client from last year used the same release of SS but I think the 64 bit release. John Booth's EPM AMI uses SQL Server Express 2008. IOW, yeah, you can totally use SQL Server with the EPM suite. I think that there is an exception for ERPi, but I could be wrong about that. For sure I used ODI 11.1.1.5 with SQL Server as I (gasp) set that up myself out on the cloud.

Using SQL Server instead of OLite

Has anyone had any luck with this? I am really not too familiar with the Oracle setup and due to experience, feel much more comfortable using SQL Server.
I read this thread where it talks about using other databases instead of Oracle Lite, but I can't seem to get it to work for SQL Server.
How to use a non-Oracle database?
I can get the ddl file to install and configure for SQL, but I'm having problems getting the JDBC connections to work in the data-sources.xml config file. Can anyone PLEASE... help me here? I've been screwing with this for a few hours, and haven't had much luck and I'm getting really frustrated. I downloaded the DataDirect JDBC drivers, but I'm not sure what I need to do with them in order to get this to work.
Thanks,
TC

Hi TC,
I circled back with the team. The only set of drivers that we currently support for Microsoft SQL Server are the DataDirect drivers. You should be able to download evaluation versions from their web site and their configuration doc do a good job of describing the configuration string you will need to use to set up the data source.
Let us know if it does not work as advertized.
I hope this helps.

I used the Evaluate function that I used in Cube (ESSBASE) where it worked OK.
I created a logical column "Sort Order" and used the following expression:
EVALUATE('Rank( %1.dimension.currentmember,%2.members)' AS INTEGER , "MIC"."MIC_DL"."dbo"."DM_DATE"."CAL_MONTH", "MIC"."MIC_DL"."dbo"."DM_DATE"."CAL_MONTH")
Then I set the the Sort Order column with the CAL_MONTH column.
But this is giving me the following error when retrieving thru presentation layer

Not able to access database from a remote machine using SQL Server Management Studio

Sorry, missed the message from the errorlog in the original post. You shouldn't have included that big .Net dump that hid the important facts. :-)
My first Google attempt on that message (which I have never seen before) suggests that the TCP Enpoint is stopped, so try this:
ALTER ENDPOINT [TSQL Default TCP]

Improve the performance in stored procedure using sql server 2008 - esp where clause in very big table - Urgent

Hi,
I am looking for inputs in tuning stored procedure using sql server 2008. l am new to performance tuning in sql,plsql and oracle. currently facing issue in stored procedure - need to increase the performance by code optmization/filtering the records using where clause in larger table., the requirement is Stored procedure generate Audit Report which is accessed by approx. 10 Admin Users typically 2-3 times a day by each Admin users.
It has got CTE ( common table expression ) which is referred 2 time within SP. This CTE is very big and fetches records from several tables without where clause. This causes several records to be fetched from DB and then needed processing. This stored procedure is running in pre prod server which has 6gb of memory and built on virtual server and the same proc ran good in prod server which has 64gb of ram with physical server (40sec). and the execution time in pre prod is 1min 9seconds which needs to be reduced upto 10secs or so will be the solution. and also the exec time differs from time to time. sometimes it is 50sec and sometimes 1min 9seconds..
Pl provide what is the best option/practise to use where clause to filter the records and tool to be used to tune the procedure like execution plan, sql profiler?? I am using toad for sqlserver 5.7. Here I see execution plan tab available while running the SP. but when i run it throws an error. Pl help and provide inputs.
Thanks,
Viji

You've asked a SQL Server question in an Oracle forum. I'm expecting that this will get locked momentarily when a moderator drops by.
Microsoft has its own forums for SQL Server, you'll have more luck over there. When you do go there, however, you'll almost certainly get more help if you can pare down the problem (or at least better explain what your code is doing). Very few people want to read hundreds of lines of code, guess what's it's supposed to do, guess what is slow, and then guess at how to improve things. Posting query plans, the results of profiling, cutting out any code that is unnecessary to the performance problem, etc. will get you much better answers.

SQL Server Express 2008 R2 and Windows 8.1 (Standard)

I recently re-engineered the backend of a legacy Access 2003 application because we knew that going forward we were going to loose the replication capability in Access. This is a small, departmental app, so the new SQL Server Express 2008 R2 backend is
hosted on a robust Windows 7 system. I tested the implementation with both Windows XP and Windows 7 clients running the updated Access 2003 frontend and everything worked great.
We are now in the midst of a company-wide upgrade to Windows 8.1 and I'm having issues. The legacy frontend works fine with Access 2013 (full version) when run locally on the Win7 machine, but I can't get any of the new Win 8.1 clients to connect to the
SQL database using the Access 2013 Runtime module. I CAN create ODBC connections to SQL Server from the clients and they test successfully, so I think I have a valid SQL connection to the Win 7 box.
To recap: old clients were WinXP Pro with Office 2003 Pro, new clients are Win 8.1 (non-Pro) with Access 2013 Runtime module.
Any ideas?

Hi ,
Glad to hear that you have found the solution. Thank you for coming back and let us know the result:)

From SharePoint Content Database, Using SQL-Server Query how to fetch the 'Document GUID' based on 'Content Type'

I want to get all the documents based on content type using SQL Server Query. I know that, querying the content database without using API is not advisable, but still i want to perform this action through SQL Server Query. Can someone assist ?

You're right, it's not advisable, may result in corruption of your databases and might impact performance and stability. But assuming you're happy to do that then it is possible.
Before you go down that route, have you considered using something more safe like PowerShell? I've seen a script exactly like the one you describe and it would take far less time to do it through PS than it would through SQL.
