I'm new to SSIS, but have been programming in SQL and ASP.Net for several years. In Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition I've created an SSIS that imports data from a flat file into the database. The original process worked, but did not check the creation date of the import file. I've been asked to add logic that will check that date and verify that it's more recent than a value stored in the database before the import process executes.
Here are the task steps.
[Execute SQL Task] - Run a stored procedure that checks to see if the import is running. If so, stop execution. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
[Execute SQL Task] - Log an entry to a table indicating that the import has started.
[Script Task] - Get the create date for the current flat file via the reference provided in the file connection manager. Assign that date to a global value (FileCreateDate) and pass it to the next step. This works.
[Execute SQL Task] - Compare this file date with the last file create date in the database. This is where the process breaks. This step depends on 2 variables defined at a global level. The first is FileCreateDate, which gets set in step 3. The second is a global variable named IsNewFile. That variable needs to be set in this step based on what the stored procedure this step calls finds out on the database. Precedence constraints direct behavior to the next proper node according to the TRUE/FALSE setting of IsNewFile.
If IsNewFile is FALSE, direct the process to a step that enters a log entry to a table and conclude execution of the SSIS.
If IsNewFile is TRUE, proceed with the import. There are 5 other subsequent steps that follow this decision, but since those work they are not relevant to this post. Here is the stored procedure that Step 4 is calling. You can see that I experimented with using and not using the OUTPUT option. I really don't care if it returns the value as an OUTPUT or as a field in a recordset. All I care about is getting that value back from the stored procedure so this node in the decision tree can point the flow in the correct direction.
The SSIS package passes the FileCreateDate parameter to this procedure, which then compares that parameter with the date saved in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
If the date is newer (or if there is no date), it updates the field in that table and returns a TRUE IsNewFile bit value in a recordset.
Otherwise it returns a FALSE value in the IsNewFile column.
SELECT @CreateDateInTable = FileCreateDate FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
IF EXISTS (SELECT ProcessName FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName)
BEGIN
-- The process exists in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Compare the create dates.
IF (@FileCreateDate > @CreateDateInTable)
BEGIN
-- This is a newer file date. Update the table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
UPDATE tbl_ImportFileCreateDate
SET FileCreateDate = @FileCreateDate
WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- The file date is the same or older.
SET @IsNewFile = 0
END
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- This is a new process for tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Add a record to that table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportFileCreateDate (ProcessName, FileCreateDate)
VALUES (@ProcessName, @FileCreateDate)
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
SELECT @IsNewFile
The relevant Global Variables in the package are defined as follows: Name : Scope : Date Type : Value FileCreateDate : (Package Name) : DateType : 1/1/2000 IsNewFile : (Package Name) : Boolean : False
Setting the properties in the "Execute SQL Task Editor" has been the difficult part of this. Here are the settings.
General Name = Compare Last File Create Date Description = Compares the create date of the current file with a value in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. TimeOut = 0 CodePage = 1252 ResultSet = None ConnectionType = OLE DB Connection = MyServerDataBase SQLSourceType = Direct input IsQueryStoredProcedure = False BypassPrepare = True
I tried several SQL statements, suspecting it's a syntax issue. All of these failed, but with different error messages. These are the 2 most recent attempts based on posts I was able to locate. SQLStatement = exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output SQLStatement = exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
Parameter Mapping Variable Name = User::FileCreateDate, Direction = Input, DataType = DATE, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = -1 Variable Name = User::IsNewFile, Direction = Output, DataType = BYTE, Parameter Name = 1, Parameter Size = -1
Result Set is empty. Expressions is empty.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the following error message appears.

When the above is run tbl_ImportFileCreateDate does not get updated, so it's failing at some point when calling the procedure.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the tbl_ImportFileCreateDate table gets updated. So I know that data piece is working, but then it fails with the following message.

The IsNewFile global variable is scoped at the package level and has a Boolean data type, and the Output parameter in the stored procedure is defined as a Bit. So what gives?
The "Possible Failure Reasons" message is so generic that it's been useless to me. And I've been unable to find any examples online that explain how to do what I'm attempting. This would seem to be a very common task. My suspicion is that one or more of the settings in that Execute SQL Task node is bad. Or that there is some cryptic, undocumented reason that this is failing.

Currently I add a new stored procedure in Enterprise Manager by right-clicking Stored Procedure and clicking New Stored Procedure then copy/paste text of procedure into window displayed. Whenever we set up new customer, this process is repeated several times to get all of our stored procedures loaded. Is there a way to automate this process? Thanks
Hi all,I am creating a ASP.Net 2.0 website and in it I had to create a CLR stored procedure to do a complex sql procedure. Coming to the problem I created the CLR stored procedure as a different database project . I wanted to know whether its possible to add the CLR managed code into my exisiting ASP.Net project in which case I should get the dll for this stored procedure in order to deploy the stored proc in the SQL Server.Or is there some simplified approach to using clr stored procedures in an ASP.Net project.
I have a table name stored in a scalar variable (input parameter of my stored procedure). I need to run SQL statement: SELECT COUNT (*) FROM MyTable and store the result of my query in a scalar variable:
For example:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from MyTable)
The problem is that the name of MyTable is stored in the input variable of my stored procedure and of corse this does not work:
declare @countRows int
set @countRows = (select count(*) from @myTableName)
I also tried this:
declare @sqlQuery varchar(100)
set @sqlQuery = 'select count(*) from ' + @myTableName
set @countRows = exec(@sqlQuery)
But it looks like function exec() does not return any value...
The stored procedure below was working fine and I have added a inner join to it and it stopped working. I have highlighted the new code I have added to the stored procedure in red. Any suggestions on how to solve this issue?

I'm trying to write a stored procedure that performs a select statement of the RequestID column and the total of the disk size for that row. ie the values on RequestAdditionalDisk1Size + RequestAdditionalDisk2Size + RequestAdditionalDisk3Size where the Requester equals a certain value. I can perform the select statement fine on the individual values, how to add the values of the Disk sizes together and present that back in the select statement.So far the code looks like but is giving me an error around the line performing a SUM.

Hello:I have a stored procedure for generating our invoices in CrystalReports. I have added a new field to the SP, but when I try to add thefield to my Crystal Report invoice, the field isn't available in thelist. However, if I create a new, blank report using the same storedprocedure as the datasource, the field is available. I've seeminglytried every iteration of "Verify Database" to no avail.The obvious answer would be to simply drop the sp from my existingreport and then re-add it. However, if you do this, all your fields onthe report are dropped.Any ideas?Thanks,Scott
I have a SQL server instance being used as our data warehousing environment. The instance consists of several databases that I am snapshotting as part of our high availability strategy for data. I've created a stored procedure that takes the source database as an argument and that will create a new snapshot when a new one needs to be created and will also automatically remove the old snapshot. It also updates some synonym tables that point to the new snapshot but that might not be an important detail.
I would like to have the stored procedure stored some place global to all of the databases that I am routinely snapshotting, but that would mean putting it in the master database. Although having it there makes things significantly better in terms of usability, it seems like there's something wrong with putting any stored procedures in the master database. Am I wrong? Is it OK to put stored procedures there in situations like this?
I have two tables. UserIds is a collection of users, with UserId as the primary key. Contacts simply maps pairs of users. Think of it like IM, where one user can have multiple contacts.
Contacts ------------- UserId - int, the UserId of the user who has the contact ContactUserId - int, the UserId of the contact
I also have a stored procedure named GetConnectedUserIds that returns all the contacts of a given user. It takes a single parameter, @UserId, the UserId of the user whose contacts I want to get. That's pretty simple:
SELECT ContactUserId FROM Contacts WHERE UserId=@UserId.
Now here's where I get over my head. I actually want that stored procedure to return the user's contacts AND the user's own ID. I want the SELECT statement above, but tack on @UserId to the end of it.
How do I do that?
Thanks in advance for any help. Feel free to answer here or to point me to a useful resource.
hi how can I set my variable value with a query??? I am about to make a procedure to get a comma seperatet array and insert into the table. if I omit ID (primary key) and set it as Identity every thing is ok but I don't want it to be Identity. so I have to find the max of ID and then add it to the first of my comma seperated values. the problem is I have a table name as nvarchar in the parameters. so I have to first make a query as string and then execute it. anyway I need to get the value of the query string and assingn @ID variable to it's return value. how can I do it? so just suppose that I have @Values, @TableName (values are in the right order) then I want to find max(ID)+1 in @TableName (something like "select max(id)+1 from @TableName" I know that it will not work. so I make a string and execute it ) and add it to the first of my @Values then my problem will solve thank you in advance regards
I have a problem. I am trying to get a value from stored procedure A into a variable in storded procedure B, kind of like this:
Note: don't be fooled by the simplicity of these samples. There is no other way for me to solve this problem, but to get the value from sp_A into a variable in sp_B, since sp_A is in a database out of my control and i have no clue what happens therein...

Hi everybody, i have a problem and i hope anyone can help me. I write a sp thayt include some variables. One of it is nvarchar(max) (because i think needed value is too big). Unfortunately, that variable is really too big (about 1000000 chars). It is out of bound of nvarchar(max). How can i do?? Please help me because i am working in it and it is too late now. Thanks.

My task is to add income by taking few variables from webpage. I had take User ID(From database), Field value by selecting it from DropDownBox( Which value is once again taken from database), Income Description, Date, Amount .

1. I have a stored procedure, the procedure need create new category for forums, each category have their own place (what going first , what going second etc...), it's importent for me that all categories will be in property for them place, so i must read next place from table, and if not then i set it = 0 . But it's seems not working, i getting error. Can somebody tell me please what wrong ?

I am trying to Execute a Stored Procedure using Call OSQL from a .bat file, and passing a DOS variable to the Stored Procedure.
The DOS variable is established in the DOS command...
set SERVERJOB=JOBNAME
I have tried...
EXEC sp_procedure %SERVERJOB%
With this, I get an error...
sg 170, Level 15, State 1, Server ABCDEFGH, Line 20 Line 20: Incorrect syntax near '%'.
If I put the variable name in quotes on the EXEC statement above, the value used is the variable name, %SERVERJOB% itself rather than the value the variable was set to, which would be JOBNAME in the above example.
I am using an Access 2003 front-end, and an SQL backend to run my application. I have a pretty good handle on using stored procedures and assigning variables for criteria within the SPROC.
I am however having a problem when I try to use a variable in place of a named procedure. For example I have a function that runs 2 procedures, therefore I "Call" the function with the code that runs my procedure, and simply change the name of the SPROC with each call. My problem is that I cannot figure out the syntax to use a variable for the named procedure. My code always errors on the line "objConn.MySProc MyCalendar, objRs" because MySproc is of course not a named procedure.
So how do I refer to a procedures name using a variable?
Hello again folks, I've come crying for some more help :(
I have an sql query that runs fairly well and I'd like to make it a stored procedure.
The only hickup here is that I need to be able to send a field name in the select statement as a variable.
SQL Server does not allow this and I'm at a loss for the best way to handle it.
Thx for any help :)
