Hello "precious" developers of Microsoft SQL Server 2000.
Huge bugs are performed when:
1) sp4 has applied for my default instance (developer edition)
2) everytime I setup a new named instance (MSDE Last release) a letter from
the registry key SQLPath (located under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Mi
crosoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\ClientSetup) is erased from the end. For example, the SQLPat
h
value must be "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools", I setup an
instance, SQLPath value becomes "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tool", I setup another and the SQLPath value becomes "C:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Too".
Nice haa!?!? The other bug that occurs from the first msde setup is that you
can't anymore uninstall your default instance (dev. edition). The error
message says that the Uninst.isu is corrupted... (maybe reads the corrupted
path from SQLPath reg. key).
Please feel free to inform me if I'm wrong!
RegardsHi
Have you contacted Microsoft PSS and reported these issues?
Regards

"Other" rdlc designer
I want to give the ability to my customers to design the reports, without
installing Vs2005 to use its designer, since they are not developers... Is
there some tool that allows me to design rdlc outside of Vs2005 ide?
Thanks in advance.RS2005 comes with Report Builder which allows users to make their own
reports. First you create a database "model" and put on the Report Server
for the users. Then users access Report Builder through Report Manager in a
Web browser. Users can save their report definitions; however, the .rdl
files from Report Builder do not seem to be interchangeable with the .rdl
files produced by Visual Studio.

Thanks, but i use rdlc files (not rdl) which are in "local processing" mode
(that is, without reporting services). So i was searching for a designer for
rdlc files, not rdl.|||rdlc files are the same thing as RS 2005 (not RS 2000) rdl files. All you
have to do is take a rdl file and rename it to rdlc. As a matter of fact,
the designer is so much better in the RS 2005 designer that I design and
test the report there (for instance it has a preview tab) and then I bring
it into my project.

Ok, but how can i give the customer (that is not a developer nor has
sqlserver 2005 or reporting services) the capability to modify the rdlc
file?|||see http://www.cizer.com/portalcsvs/DesktopDefault.aspx
that is a commercial tool without the need for Visual Studio.
Another option you have is - take the RDL specification and write your
custom program which can author RDL files triggered by user inputs or
events.

"Local" Server
All:
I was using a 120 day eval of SQL Server, and then purchased the developers
edition. During the install....and don't ask me exactly how I did it, I
ended up naming my "new" server TVB\TVB - the old one was just TVB, and I
managed to remove the TVB and now have no "local" server, so to speak. I
can't find the setting to rectify this, although the database works
OK...but when using connection strings, I can't use localhost in the code,
I have to use the actual name, fortunately I can still use it in the URL.
This is probably easy to rectify if one knows where to look or what to do,
and I fear this may cause a problem bigger than the minor annoyance it is
now down the line. (Plus I only have a few apps set up , many more to come)
Advice greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Tom BThe only way to rectify this is to uninstall the named instance and
reinstall as a default instance. You cannot rename a SQL Server named
instance. If you have databases you want to keep then you can back them up
or detach them before uninstalling and then restore or attach them to your
default instance (that will have the same name as the server)
