ssms

I have a shared hosting. I was happy with it. I was creating new databases on its panel and then I was managing my databases with SQL Server Management Studio. I could add new table by right clicking the database with designer. Database is: SQL Server 10.0.2531 (SQL Server 2008 SP1 I think) My SSMS details Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 13.0.15500.91 Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 13.0.1605.86 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 10.0.10586.0 Microsoft MSXML 3.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.11.10586.0 Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.30319.42000 Operating System 6.3.10586

Using Sql Express Management Studio 2008 GUI (not with coding), how can I make a primary key auto-incremented? Let me explain: there is a table which has a column named "id" and the items of this column are set to be primary keys. I want to make this column auto-incremented, but how? Cheers Chris Diver Presumably you are in the design of the table. If not: right click the table name - " Design ". Click the required column. In " Column properties " (at the bottom), scroll to the " Identity Specification " section, expand it, then toggle " (Is Identity) " to " Yes ". Right-click on the table in

I have an existing table with data. I have just added a new column but I cannot find how to add a unique constraint on that column. Could someone please advise? Right-clicking and selecting "check constraints" wasn't helpful. You need to right-click in the table designer and pick Indexes/Keys : Then a dialog pops up and you can add a new index to the list of indices (on the left hand side) and define it to be a unique index: Do right-click in the table designer and choose Indexes/Keys . Indexes/Keys window will open. Click the button Add , to create the new index/key, and choose the column to

I installed LocalDb using the SqlLocalDb.msi package and I can connect to it using SSMS using the server name (LocalDb)\v11.0 . So far so good. The problem is that when I try to connect to it via a .NET 4.5 application I get the error The server was not found or was not accessible.

You forgot to escape your \ character. Chris Wolf I am totally

I have a query that I am running in SQL Server Management Studio (connecting to a SQL Server 2005 database). I want to export the data in CSV format. Not wannabe CSV format, where you just stick a comma between each column, but "real" CSV format, where you put quotes around your strings. This way you can export data that has commas or quotes in it. All the examples I see limit themselves to the wannabe format. I can't figure out where the option to quote strings is. If SSMS is truly incapable of this basic feat, are there other tools that will do it easily? I don't want to have to write a C#
