DTS Experts - Help

Feb 12, 2001

Hi,

I've taken up maintaining new server where there were
50+ DTS packages scheduled. How do I document those tasks?
I know the methods of copy to file as dts and cOM objects.
Is there a way to copy it in readable format like VB or Sql?

Thanks

Sam

Need Help From Experts

Apr 26, 2004

[FONT=Garamond][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=2]

Hi guys,

Scenario:
We are currently running an Accounting software in Visual Foxpro 8. All are freetables. We are migrating the whole VFP database to sql server 2000 to provide better service to our users. The leagacy VFP system currently running on the production server. Our intension is to migrate the whole system concurrently without intervening/down the system. We found a feasible way to import data from VFP8 with the help or OLEDB VFP.Now I am the one who needs to take care of the Data Synchronization between VFP and Sql Server. I am quite new to DBA routines. I don't have fair idea to synchronize between VFP and SQL Server 2000. If anybody can suggest which replication methodology can I follow to replicate between VFP and SQL SERVER 2000 or even do some DTS routine to achive this. I hope so there should be way to do it in SQL SERVER 2000 :confused: :confused: .

Please guide me to do this....

Where Are The SQL Experts At? Help Please.

Apr 16, 2008

I have the following query. I have two problems with this. For each Region I should only have a CustomerNumber listed once with their SOExtChargeAmount summed. I have some showing up more than once.

The second problem is that after my UNION ALL I need to sum 'AllOthers' as one row of data. I can't figure this out. Any help would be absolutely awesome. Thanks.

Help From Experts With A SQL Statement

Jun 17, 2003

Hello all I am trying to write a SQL Statement that will return the fields specified in the Select. However, in some occassion there is no data located in the PS_LEDGER_BUDG C table. I would like to return a zero if possible. When there is no data located in PS_LEDGER_BUDG certain data does not show up. Here is the SQL Statement:

SELECT
A.BUSINESS_UNIT,
A.JOURNAL_ID,
A.JOURNAL_DATE,
B.DEPTID,
B.ACCOUNT,
B.PROJECT_ID,
B.TOTAL_EST_AMOUNT,
C.POSTED_TOTAL_AMT,
B.LEGIS_REF_NBR,
A.OPRID,
B.BUDGET_PERIOD,
A.ACCOUNTING_PERIOD
FROM PS_BUD_JRNL_HEADER A, PS_BUD_JRNL_LN B,
PS_LEDGER_BUDG C
WHERE A.BUSINESS_UNIT = B.BUSINESS_UNIT
AND A.JOURNAL_ID = B.JOURNAL_ID
AND A.JOURNAL_DATE = B.JOURNAL_DATE
AND A.UNPOST_SEQ = B.UNPOST_SEQ
AND A.BUSINESS_UNIT = C.BUSINESS_UNIT
AND B.ACCOUNT = C.ACCOUNT
AND B.DEPTID = C.DEPTID
AND B.BUDGET_PERIOD = C.BUDGET_PERIOD
AND B.PROJECT_ID = C.PROJECT_ID
AND C.FISCAL_YEAR = 9999
AND A.JRNL_HDR_STATUS = 'V'
AND A.OPRID = 'ENRI'

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Thank you in advance.

For You Crystal Experts

Feb 2, 2007

I just started using Crystal, and I have to say, its a pain in the arse.

Can I just run a simple SQL query and get the results I want, without having to use Crystal Syntax?

Here is the query I want to use:

Code:

select * from esmpvald, esmprmtr
where esmpvald.permit_id = esmprmtr.permit_id and
esmprmtr.issue_date >= ('01/01/06') and
esmprmtr.issue_date <= ('12/31/06') and
esmprmtr.permit_id in (select esmvardd.permit_id
from esmvardd, esmudfvr
where esmvardd.var_fld_id = esmudfvr.var_fld_id and
esmvardd.permit_id in
(select esmvardd.permit_id from esmvardd, esmudfvr where esmvardd.var_fld_id = esmudfvr.var_fld_id and
(esmvardd.var_fld_value = 'a') and
(esmudfvr.var_fld_name = 'Commercial Type')) and 1=1)

I will be looping through the "esmvardd.var_fld_value = 'a'" part, going a through f, but for now, I just want to start with the 'a'.

I could do this manually, and throw it in a Word doc, but I'm trying learn this thing. Ideas?

T-SQL Experts Please Correct Me !

Here is the original script
select count(*) FROM (select * from aecprda where

and z.Vendorname = N'Alliance'
LEFT OUTER JOIN AECMCAT aecmcat_c3
ON AECPRDA_1.mcat_cd3 = aecmcat_c3.Mcat_cd

I want to add a condition [(substring(AECPRDA_1.upc_1,1,11) = substring(z.upc,1,11) or
(AECPRDA_1.product_id = z.vendorcode))] instead of [AECPRDA_1.product_id = z.vendorcode] TO THE ABOVE STATEMENT.
It is a secondary match condition

1. If aecprda_1.upc_1 doesn��t find a match on zfmt.upc then
2. Match on aecprda_1. product_id = zfmt. Vendorcode
3. I also want to add a condition if there is a product match on both 1 & 2 , then take only the first one and don��t take the second one.

Something looks like below statement but needs one more condition mentioned at item 3 to be added.

select count(*) FROM (select * from aecprda where
AECPRDA.sales_cat_cd in ('02','10') and
(create_dt > '2007-10-22 00:00:00.000' or price_chg_dt > '2007-10-22 00:00:00.000')

and z.Vendorname = N'Alliance'
LEFT OUTER JOIN AECMCAT aecmcat_c3
ON AECPRDA_1.mcat_cd3 = aecmcat_c3.Mcat_cd --- I ran this query executing takes hour eventhough appropriate indices were added.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Performance Experts Click Here

Jul 28, 1999

Scenario..

Table 1 = Product (one row per productID, also has second key, KEY2)
Table 2 = Usage (many rows per KEY2)

I have a view that aggregates Usage GROUP BY Key2 - Usage_VIEW

I create a view over Product and Usave_view joining on KEY2 - Final_VIEW

When I query Product with a where Product = 'x'
the time is under 1 second return.
I then take the Key2 value returned and query my Usage_View
the time is under 1 second to return.

BUT, if I query My Final_VIEW with where product = 'x'
I can take a coffee break.

Question? Does the aggregate of Usage get performed before limiting to the matching rows in Product?

Can I use "Force Order" hint to make the first table limit the search on table 2? If so, please give syntax on FORCE ORDER. I can't seem to figure it out.

Calling All SQL And Informix Experts!

Jan 15, 2004

Our Informix server is struggling with all the reports we run and so we are thinking of making a dedicated server for reporting.

SQL is an obvious choice because we have it already for our retail system.

However, the challenge is how to download the data we need each night. DTS works a treat but it is the volume of data that is the problem.

We are a retail operation and we need to download the transactions from our Informix server into SQL. This data gets into Informix from the EPOS system in our stores.

What we don't want to do is download everynight the entire back history of transactions. We could do this by using the date of the transactions but we discovered it wont work.

The problem is that if a store doesn't post their transactions e.g. because of a system failure then these will get missed.

What we need to do is record which transactions are downloaded into SQL and then compare this against what is on the Informix server and then download the difference each night.

We thought of adding a flag onto the Informix server but we are not able to make any modifications to it.

I think we could log the downloaded transactions in a SQL table and then use this as a record of what has been downloaded. We could then run a query that compares this to what is on the Informix server.

With the right indexes I think this could work really well. Any thoughts? Incidently the two servers are separated by a 512Kbps wan link......

One For The SQL Experts - Dare I Say TRICKY SQL!

Feb 7, 2006

Guys,Hopefully someone can help.We have a monitoring program that has threads which start and stopmonitoring at various times. There are two tables:THREADLIFECYCLEunique_idstart_time (always populated)end_time (not populated until the thread ends)MONITORRESULTSunique_idtime_of_measurementvalueWhat I am trying to do is find the average value for each of thenumbers of running threads. To explain further, threads will start,stop independently and overlap each other.I want an output that says:When 1 thread was running: average value was xWhen 3 threads were running: average value was yDue to the start and stop nature there could be 1 thread running at thebeginning of the test, mid way through, a number of occassions, etc.Also, the number of threads does not necessarily ramp sequantially -the number running at any time could be like this sequence: 1, 5, 10,7, 12, 4, 2ANY help would be much appreciated - it really has stumped me but lookslike it should be so simple .... But aren't they always the hard ones;-(ThanksGraham

'build the delete command

objCommand.CommandText = _

"select * from sstRepository where IsActive = 1 and Title =" & TitleParam.Value.ToString

SqlContext.Pipe.ExecuteAndSend(objCommand)

conn.Close()

End Using

End Sub

Now I have a windows service in my data layer that needs to access this stored procedure and convert it into a dataaset to pass to the client application :

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Imports NBS.SURVEYSDATABASEservice.DBMS

Public Class clsClient

' it inherits the stored procedures from the DBMS class which is the name

'of the CLR dll

Inherits StoredProcedures

Public Function GetClientByVirtualPath(ByVal pstrVirtualPath As String) As DataSet

Try

Dim i As SqlDataReader

'parameters are stored in an array (zero based) for use in the base class

Dim parmArrSqlParms(0) As SqlClient.SqlParameter

' Dim fff As Int32

i = sdsGetClientByVirtualPath(pstrVirtualPath)

' Return MyBase.RunProcedure("dbo.sdsGetClientByVirtualPath", parmArrSqlParms)

Catch ex As Exception

'log the error

'cLogger.LogMessage("ACME", "SampleApplication", Logger.EntryTypes.RunError, System.Environment.MachineName, "clsDemoClass.SelectAllCompanies", ex.Message)

'raise the error to the caller for handling

Throw ex

End Try

End Function

I've tried a bunch of different things to no avail the error I keep getting trying to access the sqlpipe resulsts is " this expressions does not return any values"

any ideas ? I am basically converting around TSQL 50 stored procs into managed CLR code and the CLR funtions are created but I am really having problems accessing the resuluts on the client end .

Help please !

Getting A SQL Database Error...any Ideas SQL Experts?

Jun 26, 2007

I am trying to insert a value into a field in a database named ASPNETDB.MDF. The table name is "profiles_BasicProperties" and the field name is "UserID". I get an error when I attempt to do this. See the code I am using to try to do this below...and then the error that I get which is further down in this post. Note...both the code and the database are on my laptop. I can connect to the database just fine using Server Explorer in MS VS 2005. Thanks in advance for any help anybody can offer...
Here is the code I am using:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/Master02.master" Title="Create Your Free Account" Debug="true"%><%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %><%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Configuration" %>

Database Design Question For Experts

May 15, 2005

Hi,
I have 2 design related questions.
Q1: We are developing a huge .NET e-commerce web application with a number of modules - Shopping, 'For Sell' , 'For Rent', News, Jobs, Community, Matchmaking etc. These modules will store data into SQL server 2000 database server. 'For Sell' module will be used for all user ADs for selling items(addupdatesearch), similarly 'For Rent' module will be for Rentals ADs. The site will be open for 20+ different countries initially and will store unlimited ADs (eg. 200,000 For Sell ADs), Shopping Catalog (100,000 items).
We have some tables shared by all modules: module, module_category, module_subcategory, country, users, user_group etc. Some tables are module specific: forsell, forsell_attributes, forsell_att_values, shopping, shopping_review etc. The big design question that our team is facing is whether to make one single huge database and create all associated tables for all modules in it VS create separate database for each modules and have a central database for common tables.
Q2: Will it be better to create a single web application or different web application for each module?
Please give us your expert inputsuggestions ips that will guide our team to the right direction.
Thanks
Jennifer

Calling All MSSQL 2005 Experts

Jul 27, 2006

Dear Group.Wondered if any of you has any suggestion for the following?Trying to install SQL Server 2005 Eval on a 'clean' machine. Well, mymistake was probably that I had installed Visual Studio 2005Professional Eval before which installed an MSSQL Express instance.Since then I didn't get 'Enterprise Manager' (excuse my ignorance, Iknow it's called differently in2005 but it's late and I'm tired) forMSSQL 2005 installed.Don't remember the error exactly but after sometrying I received some error during the MSSQL Management Studio (isthat right?) installation that it needs to be upgraded in some ini filewhich I looked for to no avail. ANYWAY, after some desperate registrydeletes and following MS Kbase articles I arrived at: 'The installerhas encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This mayindicate a problem with the package. The error code is 2718.' duringthe installation of SQL Server Backward-Compatibility files.Which is of course complete rubbish. We all now that Microsoft has donean awful job in getting SQL Express and SQL Server installedside-by-side but it never has been as bad as this on any machinebefore. Needless to say the package is fine as I've used it many timesbefore. Any suggestions?Gratefully yours,Martin'Just wanna get on with work. Tired of starring at error messages.'

Experts Only: SQL Server Does Not Exist Or Access Denied.

Dec 7, 2007

Hi,
I'm accessing MS SQL server standard edition using ASP.net 1.1 web applications
my site has traffic ranking 84,000 on alexa.com. all web applications
are mounted on One sigle Application pool. I have developed
monitoring webservice for monitoring the runtime errors occured during
transactions, where I came across below errors all the time. during
heavy traffic.
1. SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
2. General network error. Check your network documentation.
3. Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
First one is very important as Microsoft it self agree that it was bug in their products. How can I fix it.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328306

Client uses TCP/IP and Named Pipes.

I'm hoping to get it fixed using this thread.
Thanks,

Advanced Schema Design Question For Experts. Please Help. Thanks

Jul 14, 2005

QUESTIONs:What schema is the best for high speed search for a classified web application?
Is our schema design looks OK? It is a STAR schema and will be used for OLTP type app. Is this OK? or Are we missing something? Please let me know if you need more diagramatic description.
BACKGROUND:Our group is making a classified website (like classified.yahoo.com) where people can place online ad to sell items. like cars, computers, electronics etc. Users will fill out webform for each category(car or computers) with all attributes of the item forsell to post an add.

Main 3 operations the web users will perform: Quick Searching(most frequent): category=car, subcategory=sedan, country=USA city=LosAngeles Zip=empty
Advanced Search(less frequent):   User can include all fieldsattributes or then can user a subset to query to do advanced search like :
   category=car, subcategory=sedan, country=USA, city=Los Angeles, Year= in(00, 03), transmission=Auto, engine=V6, Maker=Honda, Model=Accord, color=Red and Price < 10000
   category=car, subcategory=SUV, country=USA, city=NY, Year= in(99, 00, 03), transmission=Auto, Maker=Toyota, and Price between 11000 and 14500

Insert(least frequent): By filling out web form. For Car, the form will have different dimensionsattributes (year, make, model, transmission, mileage, color, price etc)

Current Schema design: Set of core dimensionlookup tables: stores corecommon attributes for lookups eg. status={open, new, expired}, country={USA, Canada, India,...}
One custom Lookup table: for all custom attribute lookup: transmission{auto, manual}, engine type{V4, V6} for car, processor{PII, PIII, PIV), RAM(512MB, 1GB, 2GB} for Computer & so

3 Fact Tables: Main factPivot table that stores all sell common attributes eg. price, title, year_made, post_date, expire_date, user_name, description etc. One fact table to store custom string, int, float, date field values of ads. One fact table to store custom dropdown field selection values

Concerns and issues: Looking at the schema, it seems to be a STAR schema with multiple fact tables where all core lookup tables connected to the main Pivot table and custom lookup table connected to the 2nd and 3rd fact table.

Quick search only queries the Pivot fact table. While Advanced search query requires to join 3 fact tables. Both query requires to join 3 fact tables with all dimension tables(15 to 20 each having avg of 20 values) to get the look up names so that users sees text instead of ids. Search speed is the Main concerns. Insertionupdate speed doesn't matter that much as that is less frequently done.

Advise: DTS

Jul 20, 2005

Version: SQL Server 7.0App: MS Access 2000I created DTS to move records from MySQL to SQL Server (approx over 500,000+per months dataset) for purpose of canned and adhoc reporting. The apphave a simple interface using MS Access where user will input the timeframeof the dataset they will process.Both servers are physically located in the same bldg from another state.Previous to MySQL, they send us cd in text format and my app runs the DTSusing a BAT file containing the DTSRUN command. But I would like stay awayfrom the DTSRUN since they take awhile to load to the server, plus it runson background on client pc. I wanted a functionality where it will run onthe server without user supervision, and they can go about their businessand do something else. In other words, let the server do majority of thework.Now that MySQL came into the picture, the Network Support created a filedsnwhere sqlserver sits and I use that as a reference on my DTS (using UNC,\myserverfile$sample.dsn)The problem:1) I work from home and when creating and running this DTS's, it takes awhile to process;2) When specifying the UNC path on DTS and saved, for some reason itswitches to the User/System DSN section;3) I also tested from office with the same result (i connect using cablemodem)Now the only way I can think of to solve this problem:a) save the DTS as a file and send it over to Network Support and have themload it up and manually change the source location OR have them modify theDTS and change the source locationb) then create a DTS jobThe person who will be running this DTS might be running it from home oroffice. Also, is there a way to automate the DTS job using an SP? I wantedto make it as easier as possible for the end user, where all they have to dois enable the job and run only for this time and for this package.TIA!Bob

Pls Advise Me. HELP Pls...

May 20, 2006

on the 1st opening of my web page it uses the membership control of asp.net
for logging on. sometimes it takes time to logon and worse is, it will
encounter sql server error. that can be resolved by just restarting that
specific page and it will be alright, it will logon normally. this only issue happens only on the first opening of the logon page.
i have read a certain article and it says there that on the first time
you access the sql server, sometimes the sql server needs a little more
time communicating back and forth.
how can i make my log-on page wait a little longer till it communicates
or finishes communicating to the sql server?
im afraid that this may happen once i deploy my web project. i am
expecting over 100 users and they might save to the database all
together. will i encounter problem on this particular?
i am using ASP.NET 2.0 and SQLExpress for this project. pls advise me.
BIG THANKS.

Help With The Design/creation Of A Database For My Application. [Experts Needed]

Apr 17, 2004

Hello, I was wondering if any of you experts might assist me in properly creating a database for my application. I've been pondering for a few days on how to accomplish this, but it seems that it doesnt have to be as complex as I am thinking...I just have to know how.

First off, I want to populate a dataset from a database in which I can databind to a datalist or repeater control. My datalist or repeater will have the following information in the ItemTemplate. Each ItemTemplate will consist of a table with 1 row with 3 columns cells. In each cell, the data will be laid out as accordingly.

[Unique Number] [Description ][Price ]
1000 XYZ $100.00
1001 ZXY $250.00

When the datalist or repeater is populated, it will need to be tried against a value that the user selects. For instance, the user selects 100,000 from a listbox and fetches the next page which will show the diagram above...he/she will see those results. However, if the user selects 110,000, the diagram above will have for the most part the same Unique Number and Descriptions, but the prices will vary. The reason I say for the most part with the Unique Number and Descriptions, is because I want to later be able to add admin access to add additional rows and appropriate prices to each Unique Number and Description.

Now the tricky part is, I could just add the listbox values to a table as a unique key and associated them with the Unique Number, Description and Price, however there are about 50 different options the user can select from and approx 50 different rows of Unique Numbers, Descriptions and Price . So you can see, I would have to set up the diagram each time for every possible selection from the listbox, which wouldnt really be efficient I presume.

I want to be able to populate the datalist or repeater so it could have say 50 Unique Numbers with Descriptions and Price at selection 100,000. And also that it might only populate with 45 Unique Numbers and Descrptions and Price at selection 110,000 because the 5 missing dont pertain to the selection of 110,000. I am trying to do it this way because at sometime, I want the admin to be able to add/delete a Unique Number, a Description for it and a corresponding price that correlates to the selection from the listbox.

Thanks for all your help guys. I really appreciate it. For the most part I understand what Im doing, I just need to be walked thru it a bit. Thanks again!

Recursive Multi-Level Query Using CTE. Attn: Experts!

Mar 21, 2007

I am attempting to do the following....

I have standard tree setup. The tree can be up to 4 nodes deep. User permissions may be assigned at any level in the tree. Any

permission should cascade down the tree to the lowest child node.

For example, if a user had a role of 1 for the root node (101), the sql should return:

OrgID RoleID
101     1
102     1
103     1
etc...

My table structure is as follows....

Org

OrgID ParentID
101     Null
102     101
103     101
105     102
106     102
107     105
108     105
109     106
110     106
111     106

UserOrgRole

UserID OrgID RoleID
User1   101     1
User1   102     2
User1 103     2
User1 107     2
User2   101     1
User3   106     3
etc...

What I would like to retrive from the above table data is....

OrgID RoleID
102     2
105     2
106     2
107     2
108     2
109     2
110     2
111     2

This is so because all the nodes (except for 101 and 103) are somehow decedent from the 102 node and 102 has a roleid of 2. I am only concerned with the RoleID 2 and User1.

I have worked for two days trying to figure out how to do this. I am not a DBA or SQL expert by any means. I cannot seem to figure

out how to traverse multiple levels of the tree. I have been using the new CTE and made some progress, but I think I reached my

plateau and haven't been able to get any further.

If someone could help me, I would be forever in your debt! I am really starting to get very frustrated and I know there are some of

you experts out there that would know exactly what to do.

thanks!

Certification: Looking For Advise

Oct 1, 2004

Hi All

I have been working with Ms access Database the last four years and have gained a lot of experience which help me to have extensive knowledge of Jet, Dao and Ado. Since The Begining of this year i hv been migrating to SQL server server and for that i bought two books :Programming Access project file with Microsoft Sql server and Access Developers Guide to Ms sql server : Chipman & Baron ( this oner is simply a great achievement ). They help me out in the very near past to complety migrate a two database approch Jet Application to a reliable (Adp/ SQL Server client server ) where major parts of the code business logic has been transfered to run on the server as stored procedures and all forms re-built as unbound. these merely leads to a great enhancement of the applications.

My goal now is register to MCDBA and get the certification. I am not interested by classroom training from Microsoft Parterns or online training. I am looking for books that can help to get well prepared for the exams.

Have found this two books in Amazon:

1 - MCAD/MCSE/MCDBA Self-Paced Training Kit: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Database Design and Implementation, Exam 70-229, Second Edition

2- MCSA/MCSE/MCDBA Self-Paced Training Kit: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 System Administration, 70-228, Second Edition

However their rating didn't encourage me to place directly my orders.

Does someone have any experience with them ?

Do you think they will considerably help me to add value to my knowledge of SQL Server and get ready for the exam ?

Do you know some others books you woul rather encourage me to buy ?

Any advice in this regards really appreciated.

Need Advise On SSIS?

Jan 4, 2007

I am very new in SSIS. I have the Report Server set up with two dozen of the OLAP reports in it. The reports are connected to the OLAP database on a seperate computer running on Sql 2005 server and the data source for the OLAP DB is pointed to the warehouse database on another computer running on Sql 2000 server. The warehouse server updates daily from a number of "Production" Sql servers running on Sql 6.5 and Sql 7.0 with the legacy front-end data entry application. I know the update from the "Production" Sql 6.5/7.0 servers to the warehouse server complete around 9am in the morning everyday. How do I set up a package in SSIS to schedule the update of the OLAP database say 9:30am so that end-user can have the latest data to their report. The OLAP database has one fact table, half a dozen of cubes and ten dimensions. I know it is not an easy task to set up the package in SSIS. Please provide sample and step on how to do this. Thanks. One last question how to prevent/warn users from opening the report when SSIS updating the OLAP database?
