SQL Server 2012 64 Bit installation issues

I was installing SQL server 2012 and I have to say it is not at all easy task. I got below issues and solutions:

Issue 1 - Not able to complete installation if you have visual studio 2012 / 2013 installed before.
Solution - make sure you install SQL server 2012 before installation of visual studio 2012 / 2013.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14162947/using-ssis-bids-with-visual-studio-2012-2013

If you have installed visual studio, the simplest way is go for SQL server 2014.


Issue 2 - No separate SQL server management studio installation.
Solution - You need to start installation again and run installation again.

Some blog will tell you to go with add feature in installation. but you need to go new installation if you are go with 64 bit.

How to find the SQL Instance edition ?

Q: How to find the SQL Instance edition ?

Ans: First I thought, its Microsoft. Go to help menu and click on About. It will give you the edition you have installed. But the answer is no. This time it displayed numbers and something which was little bit hard to understand.

So what we do? google it.

And first you find links of Microsoft which is confusing to people like me. So here is the solution.

Follow below steps :

1. Open you SQL server and connect your database.
2. Open (Ctrl + n) new querywindow for master database.
3. And write below query to get understandable answer:

SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY('edition')

Note: Above query works for SQL Server 2000 and above 

In other scenario you can use

SELECT @@VERSION

Output will be like :

       Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3401.0 (X64) 

Jan  9 2014 13:22:15 

Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation

Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.2 <X64> (Build 9200: ) (Hypervisor)

Seperate comma seperated value and store in temp data table

If you want to seperate values by comma or something here is the solution.


DECLARE @data NVARCHAR(MAX),
@delimiter NVARCHAR(5)
SELECT @data = 'abc-abc-abc'
set @delimiter = '-'
DECLARE @textXML XML;
SELECT @textXML = CAST('<d>' + REPLACE(@data, @delimiter, '</d><d>') + '</d>' AS XML);

declare @temp table (num nvarchar(max))
insert into @temp
SELECT T.split.value('.', 'nvarchar(max)') AS data
FROM @textXML.nodes('/d') T (split)

select * from @temp

Hide/Show Result window

I have this question from long time in my mind. Whenever i run query in SQL result window acquire half the space.look at the figure.

 I generally decrease the size of the result window and continue to work on.  Now I get the solution. Just Press Ctrl + R and it hide. press it again and it shows up. I hope this shortcut will be useful to you too.
