I just increased the max size of text replication to 524288 bytes with below
Sql statements. The system allows me to do that but I'm wondering if there
is any issue/drawback that I should know about pumping the max size up by so
much. Thank you in advance for your advice.
EXEC sp_configure 'max text repl size', '524288'
go
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
go
Basically it means that SQL can replicate data where a row contains more
than 524288 bytes. This will cause performance degradation on your system as
rows this size are going through.

If the system is moving large files (2- 10 MB) what kind of impact will it
have? What impact will it have on both servers?
Thanks

"Changed Context to ..." message when editing permissions w/ VBA
I have a client using a small SQL Express database with an Access front end.
I've created a form in the front end that allows a supervisor the ability to perform two very basic security operations. 1) Adding a new user, and 2) granting/removing write privileges. The code behind the form uses VBA to build some T-SQL strings and then executes them via an ADO connection.
The strings are as follows:
1) Add new login to server:
"CREATE LOGIN [NETWORK\UserName] FROM WINDOWS WITH DEFAULT_DATABASE = MyDatabase"
2) Add user to database:
"USE MyDatabase CREATE USER [NETWORK\UserName]"
3) Grant Write Permissions:
" USE MyDatabase EXEC sp_addrolemember 'db_datawriter', 'NETWORK\UserName' "
4) Remove Write Permissions:
" USE MyDatabase EXEC sp_droprolemember 'db_datawriter', 'NETWORK\UserName' "
I have full privileges over the server & database, and everything runs perfectly.
However, when the supervisor - whose login includes security admin privileges - tries this, he gets a message that says "Changed Context to MyDatabase, Error# -2147217900, 80040e14" and the code fails.
If I grant him "db_owner" status, the message does not come up and everything runs perfectly.
I'm not a security guru or anything, but I suspect that it's not the greatest idea to hand out db_owner privileges.
I ran a search, and the best I could come up with were a couple of KB articles:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;197459
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;143339
I'm not even sure these articles are talking about what's happening..
Any ideas?When is the last time your boss ran an office update? Or more specifically, which MDAC is he using?|||When is the last time your boss ran an office update? Or more specifically, which MDAC is he using?
I'm not at the client's location right now, so I can't give a firm answer.. but I had someone there gather the following info..
Access is version 11.6566.8132 SP2
They're running XP Pro version 2002 SP2.
Per this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/231943/en-us they should be on at least MDAC 2.8 SP1. However based on the release dates shown on that page, I wouldn't be suprised if they were running 2.8 SP2.
Does that help?|||Ok, went by their office yesterday. MDAC is version 2.8.1117.0.
After a little more time spent, it appears as if this is the 'informational' message passed back to ODBC. It appears that I need to figure out how to trap for it in VB. The KB articles I posted got me started, but I need some more work..
I also seem to still have a SQL issue.. In the little bit of troubleshooting I had time for, it also appears that I have a 2nd error coming in behind the "changed context.." message. If the user is not a dbowner, it says that he doesn't have permissions to run these operations.
Is this correct? Is dbowner status required to change permissions of other users?

" USE MyDatabase EXEC sp_droprolemember 'db_datawriter', 'NETWORK\UserName' "
I have full privileges over the server & database, and everything runs perfectly.
However, when the supervisor - whose login includes security admin privileges - tries this, he gets a message that says "Changed Context to MyDatabase, Error# -2147217900, 80040e14" and the code fails.
If I grant him "db_owner" status, the message does not come up and everything runs perfectly.
I'm not a security guru or anything, but I suspect that it's not the greatest idea to hand out db_owner privileges.
I ran a search, and the best I could come up with were a couple of KB articles:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;197459
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;143339
I'm not even sure these articles are talking about what's happening..
Any ideas?When is the last time your boss ran an office update? Or more specifically, which MDAC is he using?|||When is the last time your boss ran an office update? Or more specifically, which MDAC is he using?
I'm not at the client's location right now, so I can't give a firm answer.. but I had someone there gather the following info..
Access is version 11.6566.8132 SP2
They're running XP Pro version 2002 SP2.
Per this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/231943/en-us they should be on at least MDAC 2.8 SP1. However based on the release dates shown on that page, I wouldn't be suprised if they were running 2.8 SP2.
Does that help?|||Ok, went by their office yesterday. MDAC is version 2.8.1117.0.
After a little more time spent, it appears as if this is the 'informational' message passed back to ODBC. It appears that I need to figure out how to trap for it in VB. The KB articles I posted got me started, but I need some more work..
I also seem to still have a SQL issue.. In the little bit of troubleshooting I had time for, it also appears that I have a 2nd error coming in behind the "changed context.." message. If the user is not a dbowner, it says that he doesn't have permissions to run these operations.
Is this correct? Is dbowner status required to change permissions of other users?

! PLEASE HELP !! Collation selection on install
Hi, I need to change the collation when I install SQL Express 2005 to SQL_LATIN1_GENERAL_CP1_CI_AS but the drop down on setup only allows
LATIN1_GENERAL.
How do I get the correct collation to appear?
Thanks for any help/tips
hi,
as you can see in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144250.aspx, SQL collations are for compatibility with older settings and are not directly listed (as you want them) in the installation wizard.... you can "only" choose a Windows collation, that lists all the variations of each particular collation, or SQL collation, that you have to "customize" to fit your needs.. so, for SQL_LATIN1_GENERAL_CP1_CI_AS you have to choose Dictionary order, case-insensitive, 1252 character set (or alternate locale to fit your needs)..
regards
|||Kool....thanks a million that did the trick ;-)
