Converting MDF files (SQL Server Express) to SQL Server 2005 WITHOUT having to buy SQL Server 2005 (I have Express). Personal WebSite Starter Kit
Hi (and HELP!),
I downloaded the Personal WebSite Starter Kit and got it working no problem on my local machine. But I've had nothing but frustration trying to get it up and running on a webhosting site. I picked hostmysite.com which uses SQL Server 2005. I was under the impression that it wouldn't be that big a deal to convert the .MDF files that Sql Server Express uses to a SQL Server 2005 database. I tried using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I was able to "see" my remote database on hostmysite.com, but I was not able to import the .mdf files ...

SQL Server Database File vs SQL Server Database -VWD Express
VWD Express 2008, SQL Server Express 2005.
I have been using SQL Server Express with ASP and VB for some years - I just create a DB in Management Studio Express, have SQL Server set to 'SQL Server and Windows authentication', and use a connection string with 'sa' and a password (I never have managed to get it working with 'integrated security', but that is probably irrelevant to this post). So I have a list of DB's attached to SQL Server that I can see, attach, detach etc in MSE.
I am getting started with .NET. Working through a VWD Express book tutori...

To move a database from SQL Express to SQL 2005, you can use the following steps.
1. If your database file is attached to the server instance, you will need to detach it first using SQL management studio. If it is under App_Data folde...
SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 in the same server
Can enyone please send me a link to a white paper explaining how to run both SQL Server 2000 and 2005 in the same machine?Thanks.
I don't know about the white paper but I had both running on my machine for a while by making the SQL 2000 a named instance. So for SQL 2005 connection strings my server name was (local) while for SQL 200 using the named instance it was (local)\joesql where joesql was the instance nameHope it helps,Joe http://www.joeaudette.comhttp://www.mojoportal.com...
Newbie with question about SQL Server and SQL Server Lite
Hi Folks.. Hey, I've got a small app I've got to write that uses currently an Access Database.. The frontend is what I'm working on as the client designed the DB for his client, and I'm desiginging the web site for his client that connects to that DB.. THe hosting company that I use gives me SQL server just for the job, and where the end product is going to be hosted doesn't have SQL server, so I'm wondering if it's ok to use SQL server lite, the newest version for such a thing since it's free, and what restrictions there are? I mean: Is it ok to use for commercial apps? How many connect...
This version of Microsoft Sql Server Management Studio can only be used to connect to Sql Server 2000 and Sql Server 2005 servers
When I connect SQL Server 2005 to a remote database i get the error: "This version of Microsoft Sql Server Management Studio can only be used to connect to Sql Server 2000 and Sql Server 2005 servers".
Can I confirm it is because: the remote db is of SQL Server 2008?

SQL Server 2005 Installation problems with SQL Server Express & SQL Server 2000
Hi Guys,
I have had SQL Server Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express installed on my machine for some time and recently tried to install a trial of SQL Server 2005 as well. (Yes, I'm migrating from Visual Studio Express to Visual Studio Professional, just as in tended!)
Everything went fine except that nothing seemed to be installed. I searched in all the obvious places - both on the Start/Programs menu and on the hard-drive: nothing.
A check under Add/Remove Programs showed that Sql Server 2005 Express was installed, but called SQL Server 2005.
So after a number o...

Restoring a SQL Server 2005 database into SQL Server 2000
Hey guys
We currenlty have SQL Server 2000 installed inhouse for testing. A client has given us a backup of their 2005 database and i'm wondering if the restore will work into 2000, or any issues i should be aware of. Should i just install msde locally on my machine and restore the database?
thanks
Hi,Ask your client to backup database as 2000 format. There is an option for this in Microsoft SQL Server Managment Studio. Then download MSSMSE and install for yourself and try to restore database from it.If database doesn't use any 2005 features (rowcount for exampl...
