Aggregate/Concatenate Strings In A Script Component?

Sep 12, 2007

Hi--

I am uncertain how to do this. I am thinking it could be done in a script component, but after a day of experimentation, I'm not getting any closer. I'd also like to know if there is another component I may be able to use for this.

I have data coming from an Excel Spreadsheet that looks like this:

CustNumb Invoice
1 a
1 b
2 c
3 d
3 e
3 f

I would like an output that looks like this:

CustNumb Invoice
1 a, b
2 c
3 d, e, f


I am not even sure if I should be trying to do this in the subroutine that looks at each row or the one that looks at the entire buffer.

Thanks for any help or ideas...

Concatenate Strings After Assigning Text In Place Of Bit Strings

Feb 19, 2007

I have a whole bunch of bit fields in an SQL data base, which makes it a little messy to report on.

I thought a nice idea would be to assigne a text string/null value to each bit field and concatenate all of them into a result.

This is the basic logic goes soemthing like this:


select case new_accountant = 1 then 'acct/' end +

case new_advisor = 1 then 'adv/' end +

case new_attorney = 1 then 'atty/' end as String

from new_database

The output would be

Null, acct/, adv/, atty, acct/adv/, acct/atty/... acct/adv/atty/

So far, nothing I have tried has worked.

Any ideas?

Concatenate 2 Sql Strings

May 2, 2008

Hi,
Whats wrong with the following T-SQL?

DECLARE @SQL NCHAR(4000)

SELECT @SQL = 'xxxx'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' yyyy'

PRINT @SQL

I'm only seeing 'xxxx' in the debug window so it appears that its not adding the 2 strings?
Weird?!?

Recursively Concatenate Strings?

Nov 10, 2006

I have a table within a table that contains descriptions of work done as strings. Some of these need to be edited after a report is generated so it needs to be exported to Excel.

As everyone knows Excel can't process a table within a table so I need a way to concatenate all the separate row entries in the nested table to one Field entry so the nested table is no longer necessary.

Is there a way to recursively concatenate strings from the report designer?
The number of rows that need to be concatenated is variable so it has to be flexible.

How To Concatenate Strings That Have Trailing Spaces?

Jul 20, 2005

I am trying to export data from a SQLServer database into a text fileusing a stored procedure. I want to be able to read it and debug iteasily; therefore, I want all the columns to indent nicely. This meansI need to append trailing spaces to a text string (such as "Test1 ")or append leading space in front of a text string that contains anumber (such as " 12.00"). Now, the stored procedure works fine whenI run it in Query Analyzer. But it doesn't work correctly when I runit using ISQL - All the columns are not indented. I am wondering whyit doesn't work in ISQL.This is what I want, and this is also what I get when I run the storedprocedure using Query Analyzer:Test1 , 2,Test1.txt , 1.00, 1.00Test22 , 2,Test22.txt , ,Test333 , 2,Test333.txt , 30.00, 30.00This is what I get if I run the stored procedure using ISQL(isql -S myserver -E -w 556 -h-1 -n -d mydb -Q "exec MyTest"):Test1, 2,Test1.txt, 1.00, 1.00Test22, 2,Test22.txt, ,Test333, 2,Test333.txt, 30.00, 30.00You can see that the result from ISQL has the following differences:1. It puts a space in front of each row.2. It appends enough spaces at the end of each line to makethe line length to be exactly 61 characters.3. It gets rid of the trailing space from each column.4. It leaves only one blank space if the column has nothingbut a serie of spaces.The following is the stored procedure that I am testing:create procedure MyTestasset nocount oncreate table #Test(Field1 varchar(10) null,Field2 varchar( 5) null,Field3 varchar(20) null,Field4 varchar(10) null,Field5 varchar(10) null)insert into #Test values( "Test1 ", " 2","Test1.txt ", " 1.00", " 1.00" )insert into #Test values( "Test22 ", " 2","Test22.txt ", " ", " " )insert into #Test values( "Test333 ", " 2","Test333.txt ", " 30.00", " 30.00" )select Field1 + "," +Field2 + "," +Field3 + "," +Field4 + "," +Field5from #Testdrop table #TestgoStrangely, the differences #3 and #4 only show up when I use theSELECT statement on a table. They don't show up when I use SELECTstatements to show constant text strings or string variables, likethis:set nocount onselect "Test1 " + "," +" 2" + "," +"Test1.txt " + "," +" 1.00" + "," +" 1.00"select "Test22 " + "," +" 2" + "," +"Test22.txt " + "," +" " + "," +" "select "Test333 " + "," +" 2" + "," +"Test333.txt " + "," +" 30.00" + "," +" 30.00"The result is like the following if I use constant text strings orstring variables:Test1 , 2,Test1.txt , 1.00, 1.00Test22 , 2,Test22.txt , ,Test333 , 2,Test333.txt , 30.00, 30.00I need to run it from ISQL because that is how I run _all_ my otherstored procedures. I don't want to do anything differently justbecause I need to run this stored procedure.Thanks in advance for any suggestion.Jay Chan

In other words I need to Aggregate the 2 dates and concatenated into a new string col string so basically a sum with a group by but instead of a sum I need to concatenate the string. I know this should be possible using stuff and for xml path but I can't seem to get my head around it everything I try concatenates all the strings, not just the appropriate ones.

Aggregate Function To Concatenate Columns Data Into A Single Row

Aug 9, 2007

Hi all,

I have a scenario which I am not able to figure out how to do it better for quite some time.

Assume I have a few rows of data :
RunningID Date WOid
1234 1/23/2007 23
1236 1/24/2007 23
1239 1/2/2007 24
1222 1/4/2007 23
1321 2/4/2007 22

My objective is to merge all RunningID into a single cell when WOid is the same (this will most probably use a "group by" to get the different WOid out). Maybe some aggregate function that can do it as:
select ReturnConca(RunningID, "#") as RunningID_str, max(Date) as MaxDate, max(WOid) as WO from tableXXX
group by WOid

Results:
RunningID_str MaxDate WO
1234#1236#1222 1/24/2007 23
1239 1/2/2007 24
1321 2/4/2007 22

Any advise would be much appreciated.

SSIS Script Component To Concatenate Field

Jun 28, 2007

Is there a Data Flow Transromation in SSIS to take multiple columns from an excel sheet and concatinate them into one filed.

Ex:
'Strt-Address', 'City', 'State' into 'HomeAddress'.

I could dump them into a temp table and concatinate the fields and insert that into the destination but that seems like a waiste of using SSIS.

Thanks

Analysis :: Calculated Member From Aggregate And Non-aggregate Factors

Sep 22, 2015

I have 2 Dimensions in SSAS (see below end), I want to create a calculated member, named

This_Year_Billable_Objective_Count, with its formula = BillableLastYear*(100+ BillableObjective)/100.

The first factor,  BillableLastYear is a number, aggregated (sum) from child units.

The second factor,  BillableObjective is a percent number (for example 28 means 28%), it's not aggregate. It's an dependent value for each unit.

How can I calculate This_Year_Billable_Objective_Count for each unit?

\ able 1
SELECT [UnitKey]
      ,[UnitID]
      ,[UnitName]
      ,[Unit2Name]
      ,[Unit3Name]

Use Of A SSIS Variable Of Type “Object� Inside Script Component And Task Component

Mar 16, 2007

In a Data Flow, I have the necessity to use a SSIS variable of type €œObject€? inside Script Component and assign to it the content of 'n' variables of string type.
On exiting from the script the variable of type object should contain something like in the following lines:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦.
€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦.
On exiting from the data flow I will use the variable of type Object in a Script Task, by reading each element in a cyclic fashion.
Is there anyone who have experienced something like this? Could anyone provide any example of that?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all
I'm into a project which uses a lot of views for joining 2 or more tables. Using the MERGE component in SSIS will be a huge effort coz it only has 2 inputs and I gotta SORT the input too.
Isnt it possible to have a VIEW like component that joins more than 2 tables and DOESNT need sorting??
(I've thought about creating views in database engine but it breaks my data floe in SSIS and is'nt a practical solution)

Serious Script Component Bug - Clears Out All Code Inside Component

Nov 27, 2007



No idea where this bug crept in from. Have been using SSIS for 1.5 years now without hitting this problem.

I had a script component opening an XML document and parsing it using XPATH. I added some code that uses StreamReader / Streamwriter (closing one stream before starting the other). The code works without issue in my C# app.

And it ran without issue 2-3 times in SSIS. Then suddenly after running my package again, the script component says it completes successfully, yet nothing happens. I set a breakpoint on the first line of code - it never hits it. I add a msgbox as the first line of code - and it never displays.

I then close my package / exit out of ssis ... and then re-open it. When i open my script component, all of my code is GONE. All references that I added are gone.

I tried adding the streamreader/writer process to a dll I created from my c# app ... and added the DLL to the package -- same result.

I can reproduce this on 2 different computers.

Anyone experience this problem ? Any idea how to stop it ? Or debug it ?


Here is a slimmed down code sample of what causes the error :


Public Class ScriptMain
Public Sub Main()
Try
Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument
xmlDoc.Load("c:ulkasync_86281519_20070628045850225_4.xml")
MsgBox("xmlLoaded") --this doesn't display once the package starts "acting up"
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
UpdateXML("c:ulkasync_86281519_20070628045850225_4.xml", ex.Message)
End Try
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
Private Sub UpdateXML(ByVal fileName As String, ByVal message As String)
Try
Dim invalidChar As String = message.Trim().Substring(message.Trim().IndexOf("0x"), 4)
Dim rd As StreamReader = New StreamReader(fileName)
Dim xml As String = rd.ReadToEnd()
Xml = Xml.Replace(invalidChar, String.Empty)
xml = xml.Replace("", String.Empty)
xml = xml.Replace("<![CDATA[<![CDATA[", "<![CDATA[")
xml = xml.Replace("]]>]]>", "]]>")
MsgBox("replaced")
rd.Close()
Dim wr As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(fileName)
wr.Write(xml)
wr.Close()
Dim xdoc As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()
xdoc.Load(fileName)
Catch ex As Exception
UpdateXML(fileName, ex.Message)

Group By Concatenate Without Using XML

Sep 29, 2012

Is there a way to concatenate the values of a particular field together into one field for all the records in each group of a GROUP BY without using XML?

Ideally, I want to accomplish this in a stored procedure. Normally, I would handle this in the front end, but my front end is Crystal ...

For example, if my data was:
1 "A"
1 "B"
1 "C"
2 "D"
2 "E"

I want to group by the first value and concatenate the second value:
1 "A,B,C"
2 "D,E"

Very easy using code - I simply add a function to the query in Access (not very efficient, but effective), or using recordsets in the app (which is actually very efficient) except my front end is Crystal in this case .

Concatenate Dateparts

Oct 9, 2007

Hi there,


We are storing dates in a SQL table as dayPublished, monthPublished, yearPublished because sometimes not all the values are available.

I thought something like

select dbo.Resources.monthPublished + '/' + dbo.Resources.dayPublished + '/' + dbo.Resources.yearPublished as fullDate

but it doesn't like my slashes, and if I leave them out it simply adds the three fields together. Boo!

Any ideas?

Thanks,
