Does anyone know how to convert paradox 9 tables into mysql? If so is the conversion simple and does paradox have a built in function or script that can be run to do this? Which tables are more stable for alot of users and records being accessed per day Paradox or SQL ,

I am attempting to convert a Paradox database into MS SQL back end using Paradox 10 as a front end. I can now connect to MS SQL 2008 Server Express and see tables in the Paradox data model but when I double click them I just get the SQL hourglass and that is it - none of the fields appear for selection (my dummy tables contain char(10) fields).  Has anyone else seen this?

We run a client database using MS SQL., , We can get access to some of the data via ACCESS but there are fields that are "blob" and "long binary data" that we cannot get direct access to via ACCESS., , The vendors will not help us claiming proprietary software issues., , Is there any "simple" way or any third-party products that will give us access to the contents of the blob and logn binary data files?, , We are not extremely MS SQL literate but we'd be willing to try any suggestions., , Thanks, KC

Suppose I have a table that looks like, , ID CAR1 CAR2 CAR3 ..., --------------------------------------, 001 HONDA PONTIAC FORD, 002 NISSAN TOYOTA HONDA, 003 MITSU MAZDA NISSAN, , etc..., , I want to build a query that retreives the total number of occurances of each type of car. For example,, , CAR COUNT, --------------, HONDA 2 , PONTIAC 1, NISSAN 2, MITZU 1, FORD 1, TOYOTA 1, MAZDA 1, , I know how to do it if there is only one column of CAR, however, I'm not sure when you have mulitple columns.

I am having trouble calling a SQL Server 7.0 Stored Procedure from C++ that returns a recordset and an output parameter., , Here's the criteria - I wish to bind parameters at run time and I need to return an output parameter. Presumably, I need to use rs.Open not execute in order to get the recordset - the problem is that I don't get the output parameters if I am opening the recordset., The stored procedure may change so I don't really want to implement a static wrapper for it., I have tried to implement this with ADO, MFC DAO and MFC ODBC support classes., , A sample piece of code that does exactly what I need would be ideal...

I am trying to access Sql Server 6.5 and 7.0 using 16-bit ODBC (vb 3.0). The program uses two methods to execute stored procedures..., DB_SQLPASSTHROUGH - gets "invalid argument", SQLPREPARE --> SQLEXECUTE get "Stored Procedure" "not found", , I have tried using "dbmssoc3" and even "dbnmp3" as network libraries, but that did not help., , I expect that I have something wrong with my ODBC setup., , Any ideas? I have searched the web, but cannot find much help. Maybe an install of the latest version of 16-bit ODBC might help, but I cannot find it. I did install Access 2.0 attempting to get a more current 16-bit ODBC., , Help!

I've been experiencing an anoying database log file issue. The file grew 200mb during the past 2 weeks. It's a database for a staging web site and no one's accessing the site in any way. Even after I took the site offline a week ago, it didn't take care of the log file issue. Anyone has any thoughts? Thanks for checking in.

I have been playing around with a database structure on and off for about 18 months. The structure is huge and contains several circular relationships. Current Model is in excess of 70 tables and is around 70% complete (although I am not going to sweat about the 30%)., , I had been planning in doing the whole thing in Access in a frontend backend configuration. However, it has been suggested I use SQL to store the tables., , I have never used SQL, has anyone got any suggestions where to start to learn how to use my tables within this program? And I guess more importantly how to link the tables into my Access front end?, , I will be using Office XP and SQL that comes with the developer edition., ,

On a newly installed SQL7 DB, started up via TSQL using command sqlsevr -m, for purpose of restoring a master file from another server. No problem there. But when I attempt to log in, using the server admin uid/password, SQL does not like the password, says it is invalid. Also tried the service login/password just for grins, but same result. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Mark

I have some warehouses filled with products, and a database showing locations within containing different products., , I'm migrating the databases to SQL Server in order to provide access to the data using a wireless, portable data terminal., , This device initiates a telnet session to the SQL Server and after logging in, provides a command prompt on the server.

It must allow entry of variable-length product codes so that employees can search for warehouse locations to find a product., , What is the best way to do this?, , TIA , , Darron
