Connecting SQL server 2000 using Visual Studio 2012 - sql

I'm facing following issue using Visual Studio 2012 when I'm trying to connect with MS SQL Server 2000 (in Data Connections window):
Strange is that it's actually getting list of databases when I'm using Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient) as a data source.
Is there any way to connect VS 2012 and SQL Server 2000? Should I use different driver/provider? Is it possible at all to use those technologies together?

I figured out the solution. .NET Framework Data Provder for OLE DB -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL must be used.

Getting Error when Previewing Oracle tables in SQL Data Tools 2017 SSIS

Im using SSIS package which created SQL Sever data tools 2017 to load data from Oracle to SQL Server. I have setup the Oracle Client 32bit in SQL Sever and configure tnsnames.ora correctly. In OLE DB data source at Data Flow Task successfully connected to Orcal Database in SSIS. I have try simple query out some columns using SQL Command in OLE DB Source.
But Im getting following error when previewing the data,provider cannot derive parameter information and setparameterinfo has not been called. (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle).
I have tested packages which created in SQL data tools 2010,2012,2014 and those are worked fine and not generated any errors. But for 2015 and 2017 SQL Data tool packages above mentioned error is generating. So could you guide me how to fix this in SQL Data Tools 2017 version.

Sql management studio and azure

I have created my database on the azure portal
I connect to the database using SQL server management studio.
When I try and create a view the view builder wizard tool is not available - I have to write the views in sql.
It works fine on local sql severs so its something about the azure instance
Is this normal or have I missed something?
Thanks
Frank
There is no designer support for creating views in Azure SQL in SQL Server 2016 Management Studio or in Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 or prior. You're going to have to bust out your T-SQL skills to create views.

Does fluentmigrator work with SQL Server 2012?

Does the current iteration of fluentmigrator work with SQL Server 2012? Its not listed under the supported databases.
There is no official support for Sql Server 2012 yet. But it should work if you specify SqlServer2008 as the database type. The differences between Sql Server 2005, 2008 and 2012 are not so significant when using FluentMigrator (Sql Server 2000 is a different story). Some features like the new sequence object have no support so in the meantime will have to be run using Execute.Sql.
UPDATE: I tested FluentMigrator against Sql Server 2012 Express with database type specified as SqlServer2008 and it worked fine.
UPDATE: FluentMigrator now officially supports Sql Server 2012 and Sequences.

Methods to migrate SQL Database (mdf) to SQL Compact Edition (sdf)

I have 4 SQL Server 2005 db's that I want to move to SQL CE. I know I cannot keep the SProcs,Views, and Functions(Differences Between SQL Server Compact and SQL Server) but I would like to keep everything else.
I have tried this app, SQL Server to SQL Server Compact Edition Database Copy but it errors out on me. I have the source and am looking into it but I thought I'd check and make sure I wasn't over complicating the solution to my ACTUAL goal.
Is there a simple, can be one shot, way of converting standard SQL .mdf to SQL CE .sdf?
Right now my best idea is to set up Replication to the SQL CE from the SQL 2005 Standard.
http://erikej.blogspot.com/2010/02/how-to-use-exportsqlce-to-migrate-from.html
1.Use SQL Server to SQL Server Compact Edition Database Copy with sqlcompact 3.1 or 3.0 not sql compact 3.5
You can use a virtual machine like sun virtual box, install sql compact 3 or 3.1 on it, and convert your database inside it
2.You can convert to sql compact manually
Use the SDFViewer utility:
go Tools Menu > From SQL Server
Enough said....
What if you scripted the objects from 2005 and ran the script in CE? That'd give you the structure of the DB, then you could select/insert?
I haven't tried this, but what about SQL's DB export/import tools in management studio?
