sql-server-2014

I downloaded MS SQL Server 2014 Enterprise Edition from MSDN. I want to do a server backend in C# and MS SQL, but the problem is, whenever I want to do something with DB in Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate it just tells me this =================================== An incompatible SQL Server version was detected. (Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Tools.SqlEditor) ------------------------------ Program Location: at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Tools.SqlEditor.DataModel.SqlConnectionStrategy.ValidateConnectionForEditor(UIConnectionInfo ci, IServerType server) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI

I know that you can't (at least not easily) restore a SQL Server 2012 backup on SQL Server 2008. But how does it work for SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2012 ? On database level there is the property to adjust the compatibility mode to any other SQL Server version. How does this helps or work ? Will it only disallow the features from 2014? To be honest I already tried to restore a backup, but 2012 didn't recognize the datafile, so I couldn't click ok Button to start the restore procedure. Did I miss some important option ? marc_s You CANNOT do this - you cannot attach/detach or backup/restore a

I've been successfully publishing DACPACs to SQL Server 2008-2012 instances using SqlPackage.exe, as installed by SQL Server Data Tools (and typically found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DAC\bin ). However, in attempting to publish a 2014-targeted DACPAC to a SQL Server 2014 instance using this same SqlPackage.exe, I get the following: *** Could not deploy package. Internal Error. The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools. Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider is not valid. You must make sure the service is loaded, or you must provide the full type

I have a table like this: +----+-----------+------+-------+--+ | id | Part | Seq | Model | | +----+-----------+------+-------+--+ | 1 | Head | 0 | 3 | | | 2 | Neck | 1 | 3 | | | 3 | Shoulders | 2 | 29 | | | 4 | Shoulders | 2 | 3 | | | 5 | Stomach | 5 | 3 | | +----+-----------+------+-------+--+ How can I insert another record with the next seq after Stomach for Model 3. So here is what the new table suppose to look like: +----+-----------+------+-------+--+ | id | Part | Seq | Model | | +----+-----------+------+-------+--+ | 1 | Head | 0 | 3 | | | 2 | Neck | 1 | 3 | | | 3 | Shoulders | 2 | 29

I'm trying to write the following in order to get a running total of distinct NumUsers, like so: NumUsers = COUNT(DISTINCT [UserAccountKey]) OVER (PARTITION BY [Mth]) Management studio doesn't seem too happy about this. The error disappears when I remove the DISTINCT keyword, but then it won't be a distinct count. DISTINCT does not appear to be possible within the partition functions. How do I go about finding the distinct count? Do I use a more traditional method such as a correlated subquery? Looking into this a bit further, maybe these OVER functions work differently to Oracle in the way
