Sql Server 2005 questions regarding editing views

CK
Previously in Sql Server 2000, we would be in enterprise manager, you'd
double click on a view, and a nice little dialog box opened with the t-sql
statetments, there was also a check sql syntax and apply and cancel buttons.
Not exactly query anaylizer, just a quick lightweight dialog box. Is this
feature still around? Seems like I have to go into the query anaylizer like
mode to edit a view now. I am a total newbie to version 2005. Are there any
options I can set to make it behave the old way? All feedback is
appreciated.
TIA,
~CK

right click the view-->modify

But if I was you I would use: right click the view-->Script View
as-->ALTER to-->New Query editor window instead
The designer doesn't support everything, for example CASE
Designers are great to learn but you should code everything yourself,
that way you have full control

Ok so it no longer exists. Yes I code this way, but my boss prefers the
deprecated method.

Hello, I have a few rather urgent questions that I hope someone can help with (I need to figure this out prior to a meeting tomorrow.) First, a bit of background: The company I work for is developing a web-based application, one part of which involves allowing the user the ability to page through transaction "history" information. The _summary_ history table will have the following fields: ServiceName, Date, User-Ref1, User-Ref2,...

We have an Access app (quite big) at www.orbisoft.com/download. We have had requests by potential users to have it converted to an SQL version for them since there corporate policy excludes them from buying mdb backends. Here's the (million dollar?) questions :) How long and how difficult a process would it be? Which SQL platform would we be best to develop it on?

We have an Access 2000 MDB with a SQL 7 back end. We are upgrading SQL Server to SQL 2005, and are considering upgrading to Access 2003. Someone mentioned that they had heard about some incompatibilities between Access 2003 and SQL Server 2005. Anyone hear of anything? And, if so, would staying with Access 2000 be better? Thanks! Neil

Hello Everyone, Regarding stored procedures and views, I know that stored procedures cause SQL Server to create a cached execution plan. Is the same thing done for views? Also, how bad is the performance hit for a stored procedure that use 1 or a few views as opposed to re-creating the same select statement with the proper joins to the required tables? I know that there are a bunch of variables that affect this stuff, I just trying to...

Dear All, We have a database which contains many tables which have millions of records. When We attach the database with MS SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Server and run some queries (having joins, filters etc.) then they take very long time to execute while when We execute same queries on Enterprise Edition then they run 10 times faster than on standard edition. Our database does not use any features which are present in Enterprise

When I try to import from Access, the DTS wizard only allows me to import tables and queries. OK, I'm not surprised the "macros" and reports don't come over. But it executes each query, and created a _table_ to hold the results. The sensible thing would be that SELECT queries become views and the others become stored procedures. But I find no way controls I can select to do that.

There is one table showing, sysdiagrams; however, I was able to query sql stmts though. where are they located? or Do I need to contact a dba to release those tables? thanks.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
