SQL Server 7 Support

Hi.

Is SQL Server 7 Supported by Toolkit 6?

In the datasheet
http://www.red-gate.com/products/SQL_To ... olkit5.pdf
say yes, but it fail.

Error:
'IDENT_CURRENT' no es un nombre de función reconocido.
Línea 49: sintaxis incorrecta cerca de 'ftjoin'.
In English:
'IDENT_CURRENT' it is not a recognized name of function.
Line 49: incorrect syntax near “ftjoin”.

Any idea?

Thanks

No, SQL Toolkit 6 doesn't support SQL Server 7. If you need SQL Server 7 support you need to use SQL Toolkit 5.

OK, perfect.

How can I download Toolkit 5?

I can't find de link. Every time download the 6.0 version.
Is important to me the SQL Server 7 support.

I buyed the Toolkit 6. I have to pay for Toolkit 5 too?

Thank.

What you download when you get the sql toolkit is a html file that contains links to the help and examples.

If you want to use SQL Toolkit 5 (no you don't have to pay again ) you use the DLLs from the SQL Data Compare or SQL Packager installation as they are still version 5.

Hope this helps.

Could someone explain how to do this?

I purchased 6.1 DataCompare Pro as part of the SQL Bundle and it broke my project. I guess I need to use 5.1??

Also, Why would 5.1 support SQL 7 and 6.1 does not?

We've stopped testing with SQL Server 7 mainly because of our drive towards supporting SQL Server 2008. Can I ask which stage it breaks at out of interest? I'm assuming it's going to be the database registration stage.
