Best Approach To Encrypt Data?
Sep 12, 2007
Hi,
I want to encrypt certain data like password, ssn, credit card info etc before saving in database. Also, this encrypted data can be queried using standard SQL statements like:
select * from users where userid=454 and password = 'encrypted data'
The mechanism to encrypt data could be in a .net application. The code that does encryption/decryption should also be protected so that it doesnt work if it falls in wrong hands.
Can anyone suggest what would be the best way to accomplish above?
thanks,

Hi!
I wonder what would be the best (at to be honest - how to do it at all) to perform data normalization with SSIS. The scenario is as follows:
I got plain table with several columns in it.Some of columns can be copied straight into destination tableSome columns (String) should be lookup in another table to get IDOn success just replace string with IDOn fail - create new record in lookup table and return newly created ID
Thanks for any ideas and maybe short samples

I have staged my tables in a database which is in the same server as the destination database and they are on sql server 2005.
Now I need to push the data from the staged table to destination.
Which is the best approach in ssis ?
1) using execute sql task to a call stored procedure to push the data to a different database using server.dbo.table name from the stored procedure.
or
2) using dataflows to call a stored procedure and map source and destination.

I need to record in a table:
Who, When, What Field and New Value of Fields
When changes occur to an existing record.
The purpose is for users to occassionally view the changes. They'll want to be able to see the history of the record - who changed what and when.
I figured I'd add the needed code to the stored procedure that's doing the update for the record.
When the stored procedure is called to do the update, the PK and parameters are sent.
The SP could first retain the current state of the record from the disk,
then do the update, then "spin" thru the fields comparing the record state prior to the update and after. Differences could be parsed to a "Changes string" and in the end, this string is saved in a history record along with a few other fields:
Name, DateTime, Changes
FK to Changed Record: some int value
Name: Joe Blow
Date: 1/1/05 12:02pm
Changes: Severity: 23 Project: Everest Assigned Lab: 204
How does the above approach sound?
Is there a better way you'd suggest?
Any sample code for a system that spins thru the fields comparing 1 temporary record with another looking for changes?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi , I am loading the Data into the Tables with the constraints on and redirecting the error rows into a seperate table is there a way to capture the error rows from a execute sql task by directly loading data without constraints and later adding them with the execute sql task and redirecting them to error table as this approach would make the loads quicker. the approach now that i am using is on a row by row basis ..... and if i drop constraints and load data and then add constraints will this deposit the same error rows as in case of the current approach please send me ur suggestions

Hi all,
In an approach of building an ETL tool, we are into a situation wherein, a table has to be loaded on an incremental basis. The first run all the records apporx 100 lacs has to be loaded. From the next run, only the records that got updated since the last run of the package or newly added are to be pulled from the source Database. One idea we had was to have two OLE DB Source components, in one get those records that got updated or was added newly, since we have upddate cols in the DB getting them is fairly simple, in the next OLEDB source load all the records form the Destination, pass it onto a Merge Join then have a Conditional Split down the piple line, and handle the updates cum insert.
Now the question is, how slow the show is gonna be ? Will there be a case that the Source DB returns records pretty fast and Merge Join fails in anticipation of all the records from the destination ?
What might be the ideal way to go about my scenario.. Please advice...
Thanks in advance.

Hi,I have a .net application and i added a code that encrypts data saved in database. However, there is already data in the fields that was entered before this change.I know need to check if the values in those fields are encrypted and if not i need to encrypt them.How can I perform such a check and update the relevant data?I use TrippleDES in .net to encrypt/decrypt the data.Thanks

Does SQL Server 2000 provide any data encryption/decryption functionality so that certain fields (e.g. SSN, Age and Salary) will be encrypted before writing into the table and decrypted once loading out of the table?

I am trying to insert data in a table using a stored procedure, but somehow I cannot store the values passed by the stored procedure in the table.
Table has two fields FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME with varbinary data type(I need to encrypt the data)
My stored procedure is as follows. Please let me know what i am doing wrong!
***************************************************************
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SP_InsertInfo]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@FIRST_NAME varBINARY(100)
,@LAST_NAME varBINARY(100)
AS
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY key DECRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE cert
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
-- Insert statements for procedure here
Insert into [dbo].[INFO] (FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME)
Values ( encryptbykey( key_guid('key'),'@FIRST_NAME'),
encryptbykey( key_guid('key'),'@LAST_NAME')
)
close SYMMETRIC KEY key
END
**********************************************
EXEC sp_InsertInfo 'larry', 'Smith'
when I run the SP, the data stored in the first_name, last_name fields are @FIRST_NAME', @LAST_NAME' instead of larry, smith respectively.
Thanks

Hi ,
My Input is a flat file source and it has spaces in few columns in the data . These columns are linked to another table as a foreign key and when i try loading them in a relational structure Foreigh key violation is occuring , is there a standard method to replace these spaces .
what approach should i take so that data gets loaded in a relational structure.
for example
Name Age Salary Address
dsds 23 fghghgh
Salary description level
2345 nnncncn 4
here salary is used in this example , the datatype is char in real scenario
what approach should i take to load the data in with cleansing the spaces in ssis

Hopefully this makes sense, not sure what to even begin researching...
I'm trying to optimize all facets of this process, as it will take over the resources on my server if not done efficiently.
I have CSV files containing INTs that I need to upsert (match to an existing/earlier imported array or create a new record set) millions of times a day. To be clear, this data is a small subset of the actual import, this arrays contents are not the main data of the process, and the value of the entire array is meant to be related to higher level tables.
The contents of the CSV array are 99.9+% repeating, meaning they will very often share the exact same contents as a a previously imported array. A rough guess is there are 20k combinations existing, and less than 1k new per month, and will range from 6 cols x 15 rows to 6 cols x 50 rows.
So current plan is to use a MD5 hash during the (not SQL related) export process to identify the contents of this CSV file, and export only the md5 (32 digit hex) as a lookup to identify the contents. If the SQL import process finds a new (unknown) MD5 it will request the actual contents, otherwise it will simply use the MD5 as a key/id/code for the actual array contents that are already stored.
There's probably a certain terminology I'm not familiar with for this type of thing.. I've never heard of something like this. I realize collision is a threat, but I'm unsure how much I should be worried about it with this type of data (similar size/contents, but a relatively small amount of possibilities). I think up to even 0.1% collision would be acceptable which is probably way more than enough.
Does this sound like a bad idea to anyone? Are there certain hash functions I should use for this type of thing? Anyone have suggestions of where to look next?
Thanks!

It's well known issue, that one can't use any dataset fields in a
report header/footer directly. One of the approach is to create
query-based parameter that basically equals
=First(Fields!@FieldName@.Value, "@DataSetName@") and use that
parameter value instead. But it doesn't work in my case!
My report displays some entity description and is parametrized with
EntityID param. Its header contains entity name that, according to the
approach, is queried from the data source through the EntityName
report parameter. There's important issue: the report is displayed in
ReportViewer control, that is embedded into my application and entity
ID parameter isn't ser by user in ReportViewer parameters area. Its
default value is changed by the application with SetReportParameters()
web method every time a user wants to view the report according to the
entity the user is exploring in the application. But after the report
has been rendered, its header always contains not actual (outdated)
entity name. Nevertheless, the report body contains actual data
(including entity name). If I alter entity ID parameter in ReportViewer
or in web-based Report Manager and refresh report, header displays
correct entity name.
What's wrong in the workflow described?

Let me see if I can explain this.
I have the need to pull data from multiple tables from a DB2 system via ODBC and update or insert as needed into tables in a SQL200 DB.
Step 1.
The data from the initial parent table will need to be limited to being a set number of days old, which I have in place and working.
Step 2
The next tables data needs to be limited from the data retrieved in step 1 (I’d like to use the paprent table retrieved in step 1, that is in SQL now, rather than doing it on the DB2 side.
Step 3
The returned rows here, need to be limited to key values returned from step 2
Additional steps apply, but nearly all will be limited to the results of parent tables from the prior step.
What is the best approach to this? I really want to pull table A to SQL, and limit the next child set from Table A, that was pulled to SQL in the prior step.
I also need to do updates rather than dropping and creating the needed tables each time. Insert if no key exists, etc .etc.
What is the best approach?

I've been working on this project, and had it working in MySQL, but it was badly done and couldn't last more than a few hours without growing so large that everything slowed way down. I don't expect anyone to tell me exactly what to do, just please provide an outline of what the best way to approach this in SQL Server 2005 is.
To simplify it, I have one table "Items" and another table "ItemPrices". Items has an id and a name. Each row in ItemPrices has an id for the item, a price and two datestamps (added, last updated).
On average, there's about 15,000 active items, 50% of them have new prices every couple minutes, so I'm looking at what seems like a ton of data being constantly imported. There's probably a good way to do this but I only know the bad way :)
So.. what I want to be able to do is have maybe a stored procedure (?) that takes the item name and price as parameters. (In MySQL I was using "INSERT... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE")
A. If it's a new item name, it will add a row to the Items table and a row to ItemPrices
B. If it's an existing item with the same price as the current price (the most recent price for that item in ItemPrices) it will update the "last updated" date field
C. If it's a new price it will insert a row into ItemPrices for that item
Also, I want historical pricing data, but if I ever release this, 95% of the users will just be looking at current prices. I need the current prices to be very fast to query, in my MySQL version I was using something like this: "SELECT... join on lastupdated=(SELECT Max(lastupdated) FROM ItemPrices ...", after I had 300k price updates querying a list of items took like 15 seconds.. there's got to be a better way? What should I do to make this faster?
Does this make any sense? Hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction. Thank you very much!

Hello all.
I use MDX on a cube which provides data about animal population.
The cube contains the keyfigure "ANIMALS" that takes the number of animals.
The cube has a dimension "VERSION" which is used to identify the keyfigure
as a target or an actual value (possible values: "actual" and "target")
The cube has another dimension "ZONE" for the population zones.
Possible values for zones: "A", "B", "C" and "D".
Now I want to create an MDX statement, that gives me a result row like this:
Actual number of animals (as sum of all 4 zones) in column no. 1,
Target number of animals (as sum of all 4 zones) in column no. 2,
Achieved percentage (as actual number / target number * 100) in column no. 3.
Until here my statement works and it looks like this:
WITH MEMBER [VERSION].[achieved] AS '[VERSION].[actual] / [VERSION].[target] * 100'
SELECT {[VERSION].[actual], [VERSION].[target], [VERSION].[achieved]} on COLUMNS
FROM [$MYCUBE]
WHERE ([Measures].[ANIMALS])
It surely is possible that the achieved value for all zones together is equal to or greater than 100%,
while single zones might have an achieved values less than 100%.
In order to account on this, i would like column no. 4 to display one of these words:
"ok" if none of the single zones has an achieved value smaller than 100%,
"warning" if any of the single zones has an achieved value between 96 and 99%,
"alert" if any of the single zones has an achieved value smaller than 95%.
That means, i want e.g. the word "yellow" if the lowest achieved value
of the 4 zones is between 96 and 99. I want to have "red" if the lowest value
is smaller than 95.
I am quite new to MDX and I have struggled quite a long time with this.
I would be grateful for a hint on how i have to modify / enhance my MDX statement.
Regards. Peter.

I have what I feel like is a simple package I am working to create. I am teaching myself SSIS as I go along.
Source server SQL 2000 database allows NULL values in columns.
Destination Server also SQL 2000 but the database required a value in each column.
So I do a basic source select what I want. I next need to read the values and determine if null then insert a space, do some column matching and insert them into the destination sever.
I believe I should use a Derived Column and an expression ISNULL to accomplish what I want.
Maybe there is a better way. Suggestion and comment appreciated.

Greetings my friends
I am attempting to solve the following problem using SSIS, actually I am attempting to convert a SQL Server 2000 DTS package in to a SSIS package.
The package does the following :
1) Retrieve the maximum Price_ID (PK) from a PRICE dimension table.
2) Populate a staging table with data coming from a source system where the PRICE_ID > (Price_ID from above)
3) Update the actual DIM table with the new data help in the staging table.
For this task I want to learn the use of the Lookup component which I think is appropriate.
My questions are as follows :
If I create a global variable to hold the maximum PRICE_ID (see point 1). How do I get to use the variable in the my Data Flow Data source?!
I am totally confused... I don't even know where to start with this.
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks SQL friends.

I've been banging my head for a while now, and it is sore! :-P
I'm a best practice/Microsoft approach type of person and want to make sure I do things correctly.
I have a database, kind of like a forum.
Obviously executing multiple queries in one "batch" (stored proc) would have an impact on the performance.
Now, I would like to give a more detailed/specific error back to the caller (either by aid of error code or whatever) with such situations like...
"EditReply"
Edit reply takes the threadID, replyID and userID.
Before actually commiting the changes, it needs to check:
1) does the user exist in the database? (during the editing of the reply, perhaps the user may have been deleted before running the stored proc, who knows)
2) does the thread exist?
3) does the reply exist?
if the conditions are met, only then will it go ahead and update the database. Now that is 3 queries, and 4 statements overall to make a change to a field/table.
Obviously if one of the commands returns false, in other words if say "does the thread exist" returns 0 (thread doesnt exist) it will return back to the caller an errorcode, which they will handle in their application. Thats all fine but the question is
Am I doing this correctly? (no) - how can I improve this? What do I need to think about?
Of course I would like to give a more detailed error back to the caller (aid of errorcode designed in the application overall) instead of just "no, databases not updated".
In this situation, am I wrongly assuming that the database designers use this type of approach?
Please help, I value your feedback and suggestions. I want to improve and think of the right lines of doing these things.

Hello,
I'm doing my best here, but need some help. I have a client that has a company list that they want searched by key word. This is exported from another program (in excel) that they want used and searched on their website.
Bad news, is each Keyword is listed with the company separately. So if a company has 5 different key words, they will be listed in the excel file 5 times.
The info I have is Name, Address, City, State, Phone, Keywords:
So example of excel is:Company A, 123 Main St, Mycity, Mystate, 123-123-1234, Green
Company A, 123 Main St, Mycity, Mystate, 123-123-1234, Furry
Company A, 123 Main St, Mycity, Mystate, 123-123-1234, Large
Company A, 123 Main St, Mycity, Mystate, 123-123-1234, Circular
Company B, 746 Sparrow Ave, Diffcity, Diffstate, 987-987-9876, Blue
Company B, 746 Sparrow Ave, Diffcity, Diffstate, 987-987-9876, Furry
Company B, 746 Sparrow Ave, Diffcity, Diffstate, 987-987-9876, Small
I am able to import this large (4.2 MB) file into a table called fctable
What i'm trying to do is write SQL scripts or queries that can insert into a Company Table and Keyword Table.
I'm trying to write this through asp.net 2.0 (so the excel file is uploaded) and have tried to write my inserts like
INSERT INTO [Company] ([Name], [address], [City], [State], [Phone]) VALUES (SELECT DISTINCT
Name, Address, City, State, Phone
FROM fctable )
But that doesn't seem to be working.
This is the only way my client can get the info to me, and it will be changed probably twice per month, so I'd hate to have to try to manipulate an excel file 24 times a year to import.
Any suggestions Appreciated

Hello everyone.
I am new to.Net and here is what I have to do.
I needto update a SQL table with data coming from a XML file. I have seen some Microsoft documentation on this (the nice SQL statement that updates and inserts in the same stored procedure) but I don'tknow what is the best approach for passing my XML file to the stored procedure. The XML contains about 12 000 records, kind of phonebook info (name, email, phone).
What would be the best approach to do this? What objects should I use?
Thanks a million,

Environment
NT Server 4.0 w/ SP4
SQL Server 7.0 w/ SP1
Win98 Client w/ Lotus Approach 9.5
I recently added SQL 7.0 to be a back end for my Approach front end. I transferred all the data from a dbase IV in approach to SQL. Most of the conversions worked ok. I have two big problems.
1) One particular repeat panel in Approach loses the children records of the master record. If I delete some of the records, more will appear. It's as if there is an imaginary limit of the number of records it can read in the repeat panel. I don't have this problem with any other records and children in repeat panels. I called Lotus and they don't have an answer. This is important because the children records need to be summed up so I can have a running total.
2) I original configured the clients to use the TCP/IP Netlib w/ the default port. I couldn't open enough databases so I changed to Multiprotocol. This allowed certain clients to open more databases, but others can't open additional databases. Also, after the change, the NT authentication login has had problems. I had to change to the SQL login to get all my clients back on line. Sometimes the same client can't open more than 10 databases while other times it will open 15. There is no consistent patten to when it can and can't open the additional databases.
If anyone knows how to fix either of these problems, I would greatly appreciate any advice. I'm getting tired of my boss yelling at me.
Thanks.

I have a select statement where I need to test two values that are returned and perform a different calculation if they return null.
Basically,
if TESTA is null and TESTB is not null
return TESTB
if TESTB is null and TESTA is not null
return TESTA
ELSE if both are not null
TestA + TestB / 2 is value is returned
is this possible to do in a select statement? thanks in advance.
See select statement below:
Select S.StudentDimKey,
(select ISNULL(R.Score, NULL) from CLT_StudentAssessmentRawFact R, CLT_LessonPlanDim L where L.LessonPlanKey = 1 and L.LessonPlanDimKey = R.LessonPlanDimKey and StudentDimKey = S.StudentDimKey) as TESTA,
(select ISNULL(R.Score, NULL) from CLT_StudentAssessmentRawFact R, CLT_LessonPlanDim L where L.LessonPlanKey = 2 and L.LessonPlanDimKey = R.LessonPlanDimKey and StudentDimKey = S.StudentDimKey) as TESTB,
from CLT_StudentPlacementFact P, CLT_StudentDim S, CLT_ClassHierarchyDim H, CLT_StudentClassFact C
where P.StudentDimKey = S.StudentDimKey
and H.ClassHierarchyDimKey = C.ClassHierarchyDimKey
and S.StudentDimKey = C.StudentDimKey
and S.StatusCode = 'A'
and S.CurrentRecord = 1
and S.SchoolID = 87577

Lets say I have a dynamic table of 10 to 30 varchar(255) columns that I do not know the names of.
Each of these columns is updated with either an 'OK' or an error msg.
Here's the issue. I have a Status column (varchar(MAX)) which I want to be the concatenated sum of all the other columns. I'd like to do this via a trigger because the way I understand it, theres no way a trigger can skip over another update/trigger and write the wrong 'Status' value.
Example Row 1:
RandomColName1 = "1||Access Denied"
RandomColName2 = "0||OK"
RandomColName3 = "2||ID10T Error at Kbrd"
Status = "[RandomColName1] Access Denied | [RandomColName3] = "ID10T Error at Kbrd"
Example Row 2:
RandomColName1 = "0||OK"
RandomColName2 = "0||OK"
RandomColName3 = "0||OK"
Status = "0||OK"
The rules:
1. There is no chance of someone updating the same column at the same time.
2. There's a good chance that other columns in the same row will be updated at the same time.
3. Sometimes a column can be updated every 5 secs.
4. About 100 to 5000 Rows
I'm a SQL newb and this would be my first trigger to write (lol) but I feel if it could be done without causing a DEADLOCK then it should be done this way. Unless someone with more experience can shed some light
With up to 300 .net clients over fast and slow links, I don't want to xfer the whole 5000 row / 50 column table back to the app and have it weed it out, especially if the client only needs 100 of the rows. On the same token, I don't want to make an individual call back to the SQL server should the client need 4000 rows.
Thanks for the help!
