SQL Server :: Management Studio 2008 Expired?

Sep 17, 2010

We use SQL Server 2005 and 2008 here at my workplace. In the past, whenever we setup a new developer workstation we would install Visual Studio, then install Management Studio by downloading the SQL Server trial, and installing only the tools. The tools (in the past) were setup so you could use them indefinitely, it was only the database engine itself that was time-limited.

With SQL Server 2008 that has apparently changed. I tried to start Management Studio 2008 on my workstation today, and got an error stating that "evaluation period has expired." I'm assuming we built this workstation the same as all the previous ones we've built, but now that I'm thinking about it I'm wondering if possible Management Studio was installed along with Visual Studio... is that possible? At any rate, my question is--how do we properly install Management Studio so that it won't "expire"? We don't need to install the database engine, we just want to install Management Studio.

SQL Server :: Management Studio 2008 - Download And Use R2 Client

Feb 3, 2011

I have the developers edition of sql server 2008 on my local machine (I have an msdn subscription). I would like to download and use r2 client, which I understand is superior to the standard client) but not the express database. Do I want the "SQL Server 2008 R2 Express with Management Tools " (doesnt sound like what I want) or the "SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Studio Express" (does sound like what I want, and is about 100M smaller, so I assume doesnt load the database). Of course I am assuming that the r2 client connects with no problems to a non-r2 database.

SQL Server :: Renaming Or Modifying Columns In SQL Management Studio 2008

Oct 25, 2010

I have recently upgraded to SQL Management Studio 2008. The first thing I noticed is it wouldn't allow me to save changes to my table structure at all. I fixed this by disabling "Prevent Saving Changes that requre table re-creation" under Tools..Options...Designers...Table and Database Designers. Now it lets me save. However, if I rename a column in a table that has data in it, I get a warning telling me my data will be lost since the old column will be gone and the new column has no data in it. Since when does renaming a column require a table to be recreated? Is this some sort of setting in SQL Management Studio? If I can't don things like rename clolumns (even change column data types) without losing all my data, then what is the point of using SQL management studio?

DataSource Controls :: Managing Users In SQL Server 2008 Management Studio?

Jul 12, 2010

I restored a database from another server, and everything looks good except the users.

I'm managing all this from SQL Server 2008 Management Studio as SA.

The users are present in the [u]databaseName > security > users[/u] section, and they exist in [u]databaseServer > Security > Logins[/u]. However I can't change anything in the [u]databaseName > security > users[/u] section, because when I try and make a change, and then I hit OK to apply, it says "[i]login name must be specified[b][/b][/i]". But the login name field is grayed out and I can't modify it(even though I'm logged into the machine as Administrator and SQL as SA).

Also, in the user mapping section, when I try to map one of the users to a database, it says '[i]create failed user already exists[b][/b][/i]'...but I don't want to create the user, I just want to map that user to the appropriate databases...

Would something be missing, not working, or confusing if I do this? First, install SQL Server 2008 Standard, and SP1. Then, install Visual Studio 2010 Professional, unchecking SQL Server 2008 Express option. Or would I need to fix any configurations afterwards?

Visual Studio :: 2008 Design Mode Hangs On Windows 2008 Server?

Mar 28, 2010

I have looked at all the posts I can find on this problem and tried everything I can think of, but still the problem persists. I am getting really sick of it.was working fine for the last year until an update to MS Office 2007 caused a lot of problems (automatic update). After checking posts here, I removed it completely. No change. I then tried all the things I could find on other posts, also no change. Today, I removed VS and the Web Authoring Component and re-installed. Still no go.

Does anyone have a fix for this problem. It seems that it has been around a long time, but is still giving problems. I even saw one suggestion to reformat the drive! You've got to be joking!

Configuration :: Connecting To DB In Hosting Site - Visual Studio 2008 C# And SQL Server 2008?

Jun 7, 2010

I'm creating a website and I'm testing resgistering and Log-in.

I followed a simple tutorial to create a Log-in in Visual Studio C# template which generated a SQL Server database.Locally the Log-in and registration page works perfectly. The problem is that when I upload my site to the hosting site the navigation works but the Log-in and Registration forms send an error when clicked "Register" or "Log-in". I contacted the site and they upload my database the way it should be because I was doing it wrong. I can see all my files including the data base.

They commented me that I had to do a connection string to the data base so the login and registration forms can work. I don't understand how to do that, I know the connection string has to be declared in the Web Config File, the thing is that I don't know how to write that code and link it to my data base in the hosting site, in fact I have sample code but I don't know just what do I need to put in it.

DataSource Controls :: MS SQL Management Studio 2008 - Waiting Very Long For DB - Tree

Mar 22, 2010

I installed MS SQL Express 2008 with Advanced Services including Management Studio 2008. When I connect to the SQL server of my provider (shared hosting - one SQL server for many customers), it takes very long (up to serveral minutes) until all DBs are displayed in the object explorer (from which I then have to choose my DB). Somebody told me, the long waiting time occurs because Management Studio first checks rights (whichever rights that may be) with every DB that runs on the server.

But in Management Studio 2005 the behaviour is different - the DB Tree in the object explorer expands immediately! No waiting time! Does anyone know a solution for this? I don't want to install two separate versions of Management Studio just because of that!
