Can someone point me to a list of common SQL Server 2005 error codes?

  • Can someone point me to a list of common SQL Server 2005 error codes? A long while back (i.e., SQL 2000), I seem to recall some sort of NT DOS utility that would allow you to pass it an error number, and it would convert the error code to English, but I don't recall the name of the utility. A link to a .PDF file would work for me as well.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Type "system error messages" into the search tab of books-on-line.

  • Thanks for the tip. However, when I do that, it brings up SQL Server 2000 information. Are the error codes the same for both versions?

  • You could

    select * from sys.messages
