creating a database on the server

[Scott Baxter]

Is there a way to create a brand new database on the server?

Someone gave me the asp code below, but I haven't gotten it to work yet.

Thanks for any help.

<%
Dim strSQL
Dim cnnTest

strSQL = strSQL & "CREATE TABLE tblTest " & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & "(" & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & "ID int IDENTITY NOT NULL " & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & " constraint PK_tblTestID PRIMARY KEY, " & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & "FirstName varchar (30) NOT NULL, " & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & "LastName varchar (30) NOT NULL, " & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & "DateOfBirth datetime NULL" & vbCrLf
strSQL = strSQL & ")" & vbCrLf

Set cnnTest = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
response.write "got to here"
cnnTest.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=localhost;" _
& "Initial Catalog=test;User Id=sa;Password=;" _
& "Connect Timeout=15;Network Library=dbmssocn;"
response.write "are we heare"
cnnTest.Execute strSQL
cnnTest.Close
Set cnnTest = Nothing
%>

that creates a Table, not a new DB....which is it you are after? Also, why
are you posting it to these groups? some .Net, some not, some SQL.... ??

Hello,

Thanks for your help. I just wanted to create the actual database on the
server, then create a table within the database. I realize the sample code
I sent is probably not the right code.

I posted to several groups I thought seemed related to this question. Maybe
I picked the wrong ones.

Thanks.
