Hi everybody,
Currently we have a MIS application, developed in VB 6.0 - SQL Server 2000 platform, which is used by around 60 users in our office.
We are planning to host a website remotely, which would allow clients to place orders, track order status etc. on it.
Would it be possible to access our local SQL database from the remote website?

I'm afraid, it won't be possible. You should host the database also.
|||Well I guess in theory that's not impossible. It might be impracticle though...
When you say "our local SQL database", is that hosted on a dedicated box? You could open that up for remote (read: internet) connections. That would allow your web server to access it.
However, that probably won't save you any time and will deprive you of an in house server that could be used for testing, etc. Also, it'll probably be slower for the webserver to query your sql server over the internet than it would be to query another server on its own network (if you hosted the database at the same place you host the website).
So you asked if it would be possible, and the answer is yes, but I wouldn't actually recommend it.
|||What do you mean by "dedicated box"? Do you mean dedicated server? We will be having a dedicated server on Windows 2000 Datacenter edition on which the database as well as the web server (IIS) would be installed. The web server would be opened up for remote connections through a static IP.
Regarding the time factor, 90% of our data entry and database access would be done by our office staff on our local database, which would be faster than doing the same on a remote database. Moreover in case of a remote database, if our internet connection fails, our work would get held up. Only 10% of data entry and database access would be done by our clients in case of a local database, which would be slow and could be alternatively done by our local staff in case the internet connection fails.

Hi,
Regarding the time factor, 90% of our data entry and database access would be done by our office staff on our local database, which would be faster than doing the same on a remote database.
From your description, I think that you can make your MIS system connect to the local database first, and then update the data to the live server in a schedule plan. To achieve this, one of the ways is to create a step job in SQLServer Agent, and make your remote database be synchronized with your local database server.
Besides, if you are using Visual Studio Team Suite, you can start a Database project, in that project, you can deploy your local database to your remote server in an easy way, meantime, schema comparison and data comparison between databases on different servers are enabled, you can make different databases be synchronized more easier than before.
Thanks.
I love the cube browser in SQL Server management studio and would like to use it in a client app. But I don't want to give end users the SQL Server management studio.
Is it available as a seperate control or is there another one that would be available to me? I have tried the Excel addin for cube analysis but it is not as flexible and a Pivot Table report is pretty static.

It's actually just a slightly modified OWC pivot table.|||I installed OWC 11 and added a axPivotTable control to my winform. There were so many problems getting it to do anything I gave up.
Using COM controls designed for the web in a winform app seems a bit dodgy anyway....
|||I agree, it's a little odd to work with. And the properties aren't documented that well. But it's a lot better than having to code it yourself :)|||Hi,
I am also trying to use the OWC control, but I am using it for a web based olap browser that needs to be integrated. If you have some links, material, information regarding the use of OWC, please do forward me the same.
Also, if you are succesful in implementing the OWC, give me some pointers.
thanks

Has similar functionality.
Dear forum users,
I am a newbie in using MS SQL server with analysis services.
There seems to be no 'cross-validation' tool in MS SQL
which is frequently used in data mining and even statistics.
Is there anyone having similar difficulties?
Is there any solution like a small scripts to divide
the given dataset with multiple folds?
Your valuable comments and feedbacks would be appreciated.

We have implemented cross-validation as part of a larger "model evaluation" module on top of the data mining algorithm implementations in SQL-Server 2005 Analysis Services. This is done by implementing sampling on top of the source case/nested tables and then utilizing the Analysis Services APIs (in C#) to train predictive models over training sets and then execute the appropriate prediction join over the testing sets to collect model performance metrics.
We commonly use this "model evaluation" model to automate the process of finding the most accurate predictive models for a given application.
Although we can't make our module publicly available at this time, let me know if you're interested in more information.
Thanks,
