  • RE: SQL 2000 Administration Exam

  • RE: DSN settings for ODBC connection to SQL 7 Server

    Your post doesn't make much sense.

    Your system DSN specifies the type of authentication (NT Auth or SQL Auth). If you are using NT Auth, then the authentication will actually occur...

  • RE: Install Problems

    I haven't seen this with SQL. I've installed dozens of workstations and servers, all W2K, no issues. This is usually one of the cleanest installs I have seen.

    I would dbl...

  • RE: Auto restart SQL Server Agent

    I assume you have the default W2K settings? Verify this. Be sure no one has changed items on the server.

  • RE: Estimating space usage

    You can get the sizes for most datatypes, etc. from BOL or use INSIDE SQL Server by Kalen Delaney. It's a great reference.

  • RE: sql 6.5 migration

    v6.5 will run on W2K, but there are issues with getting it setup. I would be careful. Better yet, upgrade to 2000 and run in v6.5 compatibility mode.

    I've done this...

    Also, you should be able to go to the Services item in control panel and stop and start SQLAgent.

  • RE: Indexes vs Table Scans

    I agree with Andy. PK, FK are great choices for non-clustered indexes.

    Then look at which queries are run often. It doesn't do much good to index (clustered) for a...

  • RE: Data not posting to destination field

    DTSSource("meatcost__1")

    Needs to return the correct value.
