Re: MS SQL stored procedures?



Jon,

You mean SQL Server (a.k.a SS) right? SS 2000 ships with its own Access tools (as do most big RDMS). Check out SQL Grinder for OS X. One note, you'll need either an ODBC or JDBC driver before being able to access a SS 2000 database. I haven't been able to get the JDBC drivers to work so I've used an ODBC driver (from OpenLink). One you've got an ODBC driver in place any client that can use an ODBC connection will work.

If you're on the Mac side, think about terminal servicing in. You can download the Mac terminal services client for free from Microsoft. Then you can use Query Analyzer (a.k.a QA) on your Win32 box.

If you have a Win32 emulator on your Mac, just install the SQL (server) tools.

Regards,
Adam

Thanks, Lucas.

I didn't create the procedures in the first place, so I'll need to check to see if there's any encryption. I'm still not clear on the actual program I would use to see these procedures, however.

I use phpmyadmin and macsql for managing mysql databases, but SQL is a different beast. I would expect to be able to do an export of all data, and I would expect the stored procedures to be in table like all the other data. Is this wrong? What app would you use (Mac or Windows) to see and download these procedures?

Thanks,
Jon

You probably didn't move the stored procedures when you changed servers.

There are several ways to do a move.. the best being to get the physical files for the database and install them on the new sql server. The catch is that you will have permissions issues and need to screw with usernames.

The Microsoft way to do it would be to use replication. The problem with that is you really need sa access on both servers to pull it off and get everything including stored procedures and maintenance plans.

If you just moved the data, you could recreate each stored procedure by viewing them on the old server and then copy/paste into the new one. This won't work if you used encryption when you saved them though. (provided you didn't keep a backup of stored procedures in a text file somewhere)

I'd also check to see if you missed any views if you use them.
