Do INSERT triggers not execute on BULK INSERT statements? Do they execute only once, after all the insertions are completed?
Is there some way to get an INSERT trigger to execute on every single row of a BULK INSERT?
Am I a dope? :)
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I'm just learning SSIS and I've hit my first bump. I am doing a bulk import from a tab delimited text file to an empty sql table that has a Idendity column defined. How do I tell the bulk insert task to skip that column when inserting from the text file. If I remove the identity column it imports the data fine, but I want to create the indentity column in the table too.
Thanks.
Does anyone know how to do a bulk insert using just the script task? I've been searching everyehere but can't seem to find a sample.
Im having some issues with bulk insert.
This is the table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_GA_status](
[GA_recno] [int] NOT NULL,
[GA_desc] [varchar](40) NULL
)
This is the file (unicode):
1|"test1"
2|"test2"
3|"test3"
4|"test4"
5|"test5"
6|"test6"
7|"test7"
8|"test8"
and this is the sql:
bulk insert tmp_GA_status from 'C: empTextDumpGA_status.dta'
with (CODEPAGE='RAW', FIELDTERMINATOR='|', ROWTERMINATOR='
', DATAFILETYPE='widechar')
so yeah, pretty simple. But whatever I do I get this;
Msg 4864, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 1, column 2 (GA_desc).
So what am I doing wrong ?
Hello All.
I am attempting an
insert into <tablename> select * from...
This is inserting thousands of rows into a table that has a trigger on it. The trigger updates a seperate table.
Now my question is will the trigger fire for every record inserted because I need it to fire only once as the table the trigger is updating is becoming locked when the insert statement is executed. I am assuming it is because of the number of times the trigger is being fired that the table is becoming locked. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
hope this is the right forum for this...
I'm using asp.net and the SqlBulkCopy command to insert a few lines of data into a table. I have the SqlBulkCopyOption.FireTriggers set, and a simple trigger on the table to take the inserted data and update a couple of other tables. Works fine if I only insert one record, but as soon as there are multiple records it fails.
So I presume that the trigger isn't firing on every line, but only once when the bulk insert is done?
Am I missing a trick? I can post some code if it will help - I'll have to get a screengrab of the error too.
cheers
I have to update a field within a table of 60 records or so. Each record has a different field value. it's type varchar. i was given an excel file with the field values and was thinking of a bulk update like bulk insert, but i don't recall that it's possible that way.
Is the only way to create a table, bulk insert, then merge the two tables together with UPDATE?
Just wanted to see if there was an easier way to do it, otherwise i'll take the latter route. Thanks!
Hi, folks:
View 18 Replies View RelatedI have a table containing 8 million records.
I need to replace 2 million of these records with
a scaled down query that goes something like:
SELECT 1, ShareholderID, Assets1
FROM MyTable (Yields appx. 200,000 recods)
SELECT 2, ShareholderID, Assets2
FROM MyTable (Yields appx. 200,000 recods)
.
.
.
SELECT 10, ShareholderID, Assets1 + Assest2 + Assets3 + ... + Assets9
FROM MyTable (Yields appx. 200,000 recods)
Updates and cursors just seem to be too slow.
So far I have done the following, but was wondering if anyone could think of a better way.
SELECT 6 million records that don't need to be deleted into a #TempTable
Use statements above to select into same #TempTable
DROP and recreate Original Table
SELECT 6 + 2 million records INTO original table.
This seems rather convoluted. Is there a better approach? Would it be worth while to dump data to a file and use bcp / Bulk Insert
Any comments are appreciated,

I receive the following error message when I try to use the Bulk Insert Task to load BCP data into a table:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Bulk Insert Task, Bulk Insert Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.The bulk load failed. The column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 4. Verify that the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.Bulk load data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 1 (rowno).".
Task failed: Bulk Insert Task
In SSMS I am able to issue the following command and the data loads into a TableName table with no error messages:
BULK INSERT TableName
FROM 'C:DataDbTableName.bcp'
WITH (DATAFILETYPE='widenative');
What configuration is required for the Bulk Insert Task in SSIS to make the data load? BTW - the TableName.bcp file is bulk copy file as bcp widenative data type. The properties of the Bulk Insert Task are the following:
DataFileType: DTSBulkInsert_DataFileType_WideNative
RowTerminator: {CR}{LF}
Any help getting the bcp file to load would be appreciated. Let me know if you require any other information, thanks for all your help.

I'm trying to use Bulk insert for the first time and getting the following error. I think it might have something to do with my Format File and from the error msg there's a conversion error for the first column. In my database the Field is nvarchar(6) so my best guess is to use SQLNChar for the first column. I've checked the end of each line is CR LF therefore the is correct for line 7 right?

I'm working on inserting data into a table in a database. The table has two separate triggers, one for insert and one for update (I don't like it this way, but that's how it's been for years). When there is a normal insert, done via a program, it looks like the triggers work fine. When I run an insert manually via a script, the first insert trigger will run, but the update trigger will fail. I narrowed down the issue to a root cause.
This root issue is due to both triggers using the same temporary table name. When the second trigger runs, there's an error stating that a few columns don't exist. I went to my test server and test db and changed the update trigger so that the temporary table is different than the insert trigger temporary table, the triggers work fine. The weird thing is that if the temporary table already exists, when the second trigger tries to create the temporary table, I would expect it to fail and say that it already exists.I'm probably just going to update the trigger tonight and change the temporary table name.
Hi~,
Before implementing memory based bulk copy insert with IRowsetFastLoad interface of SQL Server 2005 OLE DB provider, I want to know some considerations.
- performance : compared with T-SQL's "BULK INSERT ..." and bcp utility
- SQL Server's resource usage : when running memory based bulk copy, server resource's influence
- server side action(behavior) : when server is busy, delayed-update means IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true) method can insert right after?
- row-count : The rowcount limitation can be inserted by IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit
- any other guide lines
I have a web form with a text field that needs to take in as much as the user decides to type and insert it into an nvarchar(max) field in the database behind. I've tried using the new .write() method in my update statement, but it cuts off the text after a while. Is there a way to insert/update in SQL 2005 this without resorting to Bulk Insert? It bloats the transaction log and turning the logging off requires a call to sp_dboptions (or a straight-up ALTER DATABASE), which I'd like to avoid if I can.

Hello, what i want is simple.
This is a simple forum, it has several topics (that the users can create), when a user create a topic, its stored in forum_topics. The user can then view the topic and post a response that is store in forum_answer, the user can also add this to his favorite list, forum_favorites is simple, contains a TopicID that refers to the topic, a username of the user that has the topic on his favorite list and a auto increment id to be able to delete specified topic favorites.
Now my question is: when a user posts a answer to Topic X, i want a predefined message to be sent to post_inbox for all the users that has Topic X in their favorite list.
How can i get MS SQL 2005 to get all the users from Topic X and then loop thru them and insert a new post into post_inbox?

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi~, I have 3 questions about memory based bulk copy.
1. What is the limitation count of IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true)?
For example, how much insert row at below sample?(the max value of nCount)
for(i=0 ; i<nCount ; i++)
{
pIFastLoad->InsertRow(hAccessor, (void*)(&BulkData));
}
2. In above code sample, isn't there method of inserting prepared array at once directly(BulkData array, not for loop)
3. In OLE DB memory based bulk copy, what is the equivalent of below's T-SQL bulk copy option ?
BULK INSERT database_name.schema_name.table_name FROM 'data_file' WITH (ROWS_PER_BATCH = rows_per_batch, TABLOCK);

I have a situation where I need to create an insert trigger on table a which will create a corresponding record in table b. However before I insert the record i must obtain the max value for the record in table b and increment it by one. I have all this working. My question is if I just put a begin and commit with this statement is there a chance that when 2 users insert at the same time the max value may be incorrect say for instance
CREATE TRIGGER tr_cms_prov_ins ON provider
FOR INSERT
as
declare @ndentPrid char(3),
@nxtgenPrid char(7),
@fname varchar(40),
@lname varchar(40)
begin tran
select @ndentPrid = max(provider_id) from providerdnt
if @ndentPrid is null
set @ndentPrid = 1
else set @ndentPrid = @ndentPrid + 1
insert into dental..provider (provider_id, first_name, last_name, collections_go_to)
select @ndentPrid, first_name, last_name','YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYNNNNN' from inserted
commit tran
Will this do it or do I need to enforce some type of locking to handle the max value. There are no inserts into
table b directly only by the trigger insert on table a
Hello all,
I'm in the process of debugging a trigger i've written (which hasn't been any fun) and i have a question.
records for the table with the trigger are only inserted from a SP using an INSERT INTO ... SELECT statement. Multiple rows at a time.
question is..
does the trigger fire once for that insert into ... select or does it fire for each new row inserted by that statement. I was under the impression that it fires for each row but i'm not sure now because the table the trigger inserts to only has one row after the SP is run.
any help is greatly appreciated.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I have been trying to implement a trigger that is fired when a record is inserted in a table, provided that certain fields in the inserted record meet specific criteria (what you'd find in a where clause). All examples I have come across so far involve cases where the trigger is fired off everytime there is an insert regardless of what values are being inserted.
Basically, Assume a table "Address" with colums House Number, Street Name, City, State, Zip Code. How do I make my trigger fire ONLY when a record with City = 'Boston' is inserted??
Thanks.
I have two SSIS packages that import from the same flat file into the same SQL 2005 table. I have one flat file connection (to a comma delimited file) and one OLE DB connection (to a SQL 2005 Database). Both packages use these same two Connection Managers. The SQL table allows NULL values for all fields. The flat file has "empty values" (i.e., ,"", ) for certain columns.
The first package uses the Data Flow Task with the "Keep nulls" property of the OLE DB Destination Editor unchecked. The columns in the source and destination are identically named thus the mapping is automatically assigned and is mapped based on ordinal position (which is equivalent to the mapping using Bulk Insert). When this task is executed no null values are inserted into the SQL table for the "empty values" from the flat file. Empty string values are inserted instead of NULL.
The second package uses the Bulk Insert Task with the "KeepNulls" property for the task (shown in the Properties pane when the task in selected in the Control Flow window) set to "False". When the task is executed NULL values are inserted into the SQL table for the "empty values" from the flat file.
So using the Data Flow Task " " (i.e., blank) is inserted. Using the Bulk Insert Task NULL is inserted (i.e., nothing is inserted, the field is skipped, the value for the record is omitted).
I want to have the exact same behavior on my data in the Bulk Insert Task as I do with the Data Flow Task.
Using the Bulk Insert Task, what must I do to have the Empty String values inserted into the SQL table where there is an "empty value" in the flat file? Why & how does this occur automatically in the Data Flow Task?
From a SQL Profile Trace comparison of the two methods I do not see where the syntax of the insert command nor the statements for the preceeding captured steps has dictated this change in the behavior of the inserted "" value for the recordset. Please help me understand what is going on here and how to accomplish this using the Bulk Insert Task.
How do I set up an insert trigger to copy all of the inserted data to another table? In other words, when someone adds a new paramater in the params table, I want to automatically create a matching set of data in the goals table. Thanks,Krista

When any of these tables are modified I need to syncrhoniseall of those modifications with one other table wich is a sort of mergeof the individual tables with one extra column.For most of these tables this is not a problem.
