RE: show my stuff
In most cases, you can export the SQL database to an MDB file so long as there are no store procedures. You can then copy the code you developed to a server which you could use for demos in your interiew. Or if you have SQL server, you can do the old DTS export routine (provided you have the proper licensing) or you can create a backup file and then restore it on your own SQL server. Additionaly, write up case studies about your involvement in each project. Screenshots are only going to impress people who care about design, and if you didn't design the layout, it's irrelevant anyway. ---mark -- Mark Warrick Phone: (714) 547-5386 Efax.com Fax: (801) 730-7289 Personal Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Personal URL: http://www.warrick.net Business Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Business URL: http://www.fusioneers.com ICQ: 346566 -- > -Original Message- > From: S R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2000 11:28 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: show my stuff > > > Hi everyone, > > I am currently looking for a job but i am running into a problem > because I > want to interview with people and cannot show them my work > because all the > stuff I have been doing is on an intranet.

You'd be better off simply setting up a laptop for yourself, if you want to show live code, and put SQL Server or MSDE on the laptop. The limited-use developer version is affordable, and MSDE is essentially free. As for transfering SQL Server databases, you can backup and restore or use the DTS transfer manager, or even use sp_attach_db to install existing databases from another server.

Re: show my stuff
Why not just do an Import Data from SQL to Access, from inside of Access. This will get all the data as well. Then just modify your query statements.

RE: show my stuff
steal the server the intranet is on or, from sql server go to tables, right click on the table you want to export go to all tasks and export table then again, there's the problem of if its secure information.. i'd just make a new sql database and give it the same column names but with useless data. I personally think what wins over is ability to describe what you did, and how you did it, if you can do that well you shouldn't have to show them. -Original Message- From: S R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2000 1:28 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: show my stuff Hi everyone, I am currently looking for a job but i am running into a problem because I want to interview with people and cannot show them my work because all the stuff I have been doing is on an intranet.

Re: show my stuff
Screen shots and examples of code are all we've ever required (sometimes not even screenshots). Being able to explain the purpose of the application and you're approach to fulfilling it is also a good thing. But code tells all.

I am currently creating a CD rom and basically exporting and modifying my ColdFusion work to run on any desktop. My question is how do I export a database from SQL to another person's system? It's easy to do it with an ACCESS database because you just copy and paste it. Would I do some sort of backup and then just create a device on their system, then restore my Database?
