You don't. If you want to recover to a point in time which is between database backups, then you
should have proper operating measures for that requirement. I.e., do log backups. This is what log
backups are for.
What is the recovery mode for your database? If it is simple, then the information needed to recover
is most probably not in the ldf file anymore. If it is full or bulk logged, then you can give any of
the log reader tools a try. I have listed some on my links page.

How Do Add a DB Connection to a Table in SQL Server Express using Visual Web Developer?

I'm developing using Visual Web Developer and want to have a web page that shows the contents of a table. I get the error message when testing the connection through database explorer "Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection".

The database is located on a server running IIS and has SQL Server Express installed.

u may need to change the connection string to something like

Server=ServerAddress;Database=DataBase;User ID=Username;Password=Password;Trusted_Connection=False

How Do Add a DB Connection to a Table in SQL Server Express using Visual Web Developer?

I'm developing using Visual Web Developer and want to have a web page that shows the contents of a table. I get the error message when testing the connection through database explorer "Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection".

The database is located on a server running IIS and has SQL Server Express installed.

From MS:

During a logon process to SQL server the following error may appear:"Login failed for user 'username'. The user is not associated with atrusted SQL Server connection. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18452)".

The SQL server has been configured to operate in "Windows Authentication Mode (Windows Authentication)" and doesn't allow
the use of SQL accounts.

Change the Authentication Mode of the SQL server from "Windows Authentication Mode (Windows Authentication)"
to "Mixed Mode (Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication)".

Hope this helps

How could I make sure order total is at the bottom of the page?

I have to show mutiplie orders in a report. Order total of one order has to show at the bottom of the page. Now if the order has only one or two items, the order total won't go to the bottom of the page. How can I make sure this order total is at the bottom of the page just as Crystal Report do( set Group Footer at the bottom of the page).

one way you could do it, is to use a textbox, and place it at the bottom of the page then set the value of the textbox to the value of the total in the table. Once you have done that you could hide the specific textbox in the table.
The other thing you could try is setting the height of the table to be exactly the height of the page - margins.|||No. It doesn't work|||Heres how I do,..
Drag a new table onto your design surface, Delete the Header and Detail rows,...
Your left with a footer, place it at the bototm of your report, and It will persist at the bottom, hopefully. And it wont go labeling off multiple rows, it will act as your "Grand Total" area if ya like

How can I use Reporting Services on ASP.NET Pages?

Hi all,

Could you tell the correct way to use Reporting Services on ASP.NET pages?

Now I wanna create an ASP.NET page to show some reports, and I hope to control all logic by program, so I need know the API between ASP.NET and Reporting Services.

For example, I wanna pass some data to Reporting Services via API, and then Reporting Services handle the data and return reports to me, and then I can show the reports on my web pages.

Please tell me how?

Hi Xinwen.

You can use the Report control and give hime the link to your report so it will show in side the control.

You don't interact with the report like you described - You can interact with the report with PARAMETERS passing through the URL.

So whan you give the report control the report url you can add to that url parameters that the report should get (like person id or project number) and also to change things in the report (like open it in diffrent ways, change the zoom, automaticlly export to pdf and so on) with the url command parameters.

for exm:
ttp://reportserver/myreportfolder/reportname.rdl?rc:format=PDF will export it to pdf.

search google about "report service url parameters"

good luck,
Roy.|||Thanks Roy!

In Visual studio 2005,there is a report veiwer contrlo to view your RDL reports.

U need to link report viewer control to corresponding report in Reporting service project.This u can do

by setting Propertis of report viewer.

You can also pass parameters form ASP page to rdl file.
