Can any body tell me what measures I have to take to improve the performance of my SQL QUERIES and Stored procedures any thing relatted to SQL?Lookup "Query Tuning" in Books Online.
blindman|||We can definitely identify optimization opportunities for a specific query, but for all of your queries you either have to do it yourself or hire a consultant to do it for you.

imports table structures in SQL 2000 into Excel
Hi.
Is there anyway to export the table structures : data type,length,NULLABLE,Description into an Excel file using MS SQL Server?
Is there anyway to export the table structures : data type,length,NULLABLE,Description into an Excel file using MS SQL Server?
Or I need to do it manually?
Thank you in advanced.

imports microsoft.sqlserver.dts.pipeline does not work
I have been trying to follow/implement the examples in the following help topics (thanks to Jamie for these links).
Building Packages Programmatically
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345167.aspx)
Connecting Data Flow Components Programmatically
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136086.aspx)
The problem I am having is that MainPipe is not recognized as a valid type in my Script task, even though I have the imports statements that are listed in the example. I get the message "Error 30002: Type 'MainPipe' is not defined". The other and related problem is that when I type "imports microsoft.sqlserver.dts", the intellisense offers only two choices: {}Runtime and {}Tasks. I don't see any choice for Pipeline. Can anyone tell what I am missing? It seems to be some kind of configuration/installation issue, but I have no idea how to resolve it. I have tried this on 3 different machines, with both the RTM SQL 2005 standard edition, and with SP2 installed, all with the same result. Any help is appreciated 
Here is my code:
' Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task
' Write scripts using Microsoft Visual Basic
' The ScriptMain class is the entry point of the Script Task.
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.
Public Class ScriptMain
Public Sub Main()
'
Dim package As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package = _
New Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package()
Dim e As Executable = package.Executables.Add("DTS.Pipeline.1")
Dim thMainPipe As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.TaskHost = _
CType(e, Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.TaskHost)
Dim dataFlowTask As MainPipe = CType(thMainPipe.InnerObject, MainPipe)
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
End Class
Make sure you have added a reference (under Project..References) to the Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap.dll.

Hi everyone,
I have to write a program in VB to receive the read data from a RFID reader for my graduation project.The problem is I am not a computer science student so I have only general info on programming.
I created my DB in VB express but I couldn't find out how to send the read data (that will be either in XML or ASCII format) to my database...The read data will be transferred to my computer by the RFID reader's software but after that I don'T know how to transfer it to my DB.As I know I have to use commands like read.xml etc,but no idea how write the complete program.
I checked the forum and couldn't find the answer,sorry if someone already answered my question and I missed it.
Thanks...

Importing Xml with SqlBulkCopy
I am looking into importing Xml into SQL Server 2005. The Xml files are about 30MB each, and I need the import to work fast.
The Xml is only records with fields (no real hierarchy) i.e.
<books>
<book>
<title>Harry Potter</title>
<author>JK Rowling</author>
etc etc
</book>
</books>
I am looking into doing in a C# application that will use SqlBulkCopy. However as far I can see the WriteToServer method can only accept either a DataRow[], DataTable or IDataReader.
Obviously it is very easy to convert my Xml into a DataTable to DataRow, but these are both in-memory, so they will memory intensive and slow.
Is there an easy way to expose my Xml through an IDataReader object? Like a wrapper over XmlTextReader? I have thought I could write a custom wrapper over XmlTextReader that supports the IDataReader interface - but I keep thinking what I am doing is pretty basic and I must be missing an easier solution? Anybody ideas?
If not, can anybody recommend an alternative solution for getting these records in extremely quickly programmatically?
AndrewYou can use the OPENXML command to achieve this, You would either have to pass the XML as a string to a procedure or have the file in a place SQL could access.|||I looked into OPENXML but have received several warnings regarding its performance. I wanted the fastest way of importing without consuming a lot of resources.
In the end I opted to use SQLXMLBulkLoad and it works very nice and quite elegantly (using a schema to map XML elements to SQL fields.

I thought there was an XML bulk load option just couldn't find it.
Would you care to post your schema and code so this question has a complete answer.
|||You maybe can use SQLXMLBULKLOAD .The sample code (c#)
public bool BulkLoad(string ConnectionStr, string MyXsdFile, string MyXMLFile)
{
bool test;
try
{
SQLXMLBulkLoad4 objBL = new SQLXMLBulkLoad4();
objBL.ConnectionString = @."provider=SQLOLEDB;data source=SHA-WKS1333\SQL2005;database=MatrixTest;integrated security=SSPI;";
objBL.ErrorLogFile = @.".\error.log";
objBL.CheckConstraints = true;
test = objBL.Transaction;
objBL.XMLFragment = true;
objBL.TempFilePath = @.".\";
objBL.SchemaGen = true;
objBL.SGDropTables = true;
objBL.Execute(MyXsdFile, MyXMLFile);

}
catch (Exception e)
