I have the following problem: in a data flow, if inserting new records, there are columns that take some default values. These default values are kept in a table in case the user wants to change them some day. Def. values could not be assigned at a table level because there's another dataflow that populates the same table, but the rules for the default values are different.
Since I want to extract these values only if there is at least one new row, I'm not fond of the idea to use Execute SQL Task (to save the default values in a variable) before the actual Data Flow. What are my options in getting these values in a Data Flow right before inserting? Thank you for the help.
I'm using the designer to create/modify strongly typed datasets. I have one select statement that I'm having considerable trouble with. The user selects search parameters from a form. These search parameters are used to filter the data sent to a gridview control. Three of these parameters are almost enough to make me abandon the dataset in this case.The first two are minimum and maximum age. I have a birth date field, but not an age field - ages have a habit of changing without user intervention <grin> and can be calculated. In ASP I'd do something like this:strSQL = "SELECT [DATE OF BIRTH], [FIRST NAME], [LAST NAME], [STATE], [MALE OR FEMALE] FROM members WHERE (DateDiff(yyyy, [DATE OF BIRTH], '" & date & "') >= " & strLowerAge & ") AND (DateDiff(yyyy, [DATE OF BIRTH], '" & date & "') <= " & strUpperAge & ")" I can't figure out how to get datediff working in the designer much less testing against upper and lower age limits.The third parameter is astrological sign. Again, I calculate it based on the birth date. I don't have a field for it. I could, but I would have to modify all the pages that add or edit records to the database to insure all the records that have birth dates also have the right sign. I'm leaning in that direction, but is it possible to accept a sign as a parameter and calculate, based on the birth date, which records qualify? I need to get the age issue fixed. The sign is a nice to have, since I can do it another way if I have to. BTW: I did decide to abandon the dataset in favor of a SqlDataSource control. This allowed me to build my select string in the code behind the way I would have in ASP. This resulted in paging and sorting not working properly. Sorting would be nice, paging is necessary. I'm pretty sure going back to the dataset or using a stored procedure would fix the paging problem, and I've yet to work with stored procedures (it's on my list of things to learn). Any comments or feedback on this would be avidly read and appreciated.Diane
Hello, I have been reading about how you shouldn't build dynamic SQL statements (see TextBox1.Text in line 3) and should use parameters instead, but I haven't yet found how to create a SELECT statement with a parameter that fills a dataset. If anyone can show me the correct way of doing this I would appreciate it so I can add it to my code snippets for proper coding practices. Thanks in advance for any assistance. string strConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["sqlConnectionString"].ConnectionString; SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(strConnectionString); -> string sqlSelect = "select * from customers where city = " + "'" + TextBox1.Text + "'"; SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(sqlSelect, myConnection); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); myConnection.Open(); da.Fill(ds, "myDataset"); myConnection.Close();
Hi, OK, trying to return the results from two SQL statements into a DataSet using SqlDataAdapter. The SELECT statements query the same table but are looking for different records based on the date that the records were inserted - the 1st query looks for records fro the current month and the 2nd one looks at the same records but for the previous month. The goal is to be able to do some math within a repeater and get the difference between the two records. Sounds easy enough and it has worked for me in different variations of the same idea but not this time - here's the code: Protected Sub buildPartsReport(ByVal varHC) objConn.Open() sSQL = "SELECT ap.id,item_model,item_sn,aircraft_id,item_loc=item_type+ ' on ' +(SELECT tnum FROM T_Aircraft WHERE id=aircraft_id),apt.tot_time As endTimes,apt.tot_cycles as endCycles FROM T_Aircraft_Parts ap, T_Aircraft_Parts_Totals apt WHERE ap.id=apt.part_id AND report_date= '" & rD & "' AND item_type LIKE 'engine%';SELECT ap.id,apt.part_id,apt.tot_time as startTimes,apt.tot_cycles as startCycles FROM T_Aircraft_Parts ap, T_Aircraft_Parts_Totals apt WHERE ap.id=apt.part_id AND report_date= '" & oldRD & "' AND item_type LIKE 'engine%'" Dim objCommand As New SqlDataAdapter(sSQL, objConn) DS = New DataSet() objCommand.Fill(DS) Repeater1.DataSource = DS Repeater1.DataBind() DS.Dispose() objCommand.Dispose() objConn.Close() End Sub Sorry if it wrapped a bit. The "rD" and "oldRD" are the variables for the date ranges (currently set to static numbers for testing). I'm getting the following error when I run this on an ASP.Net page: System.Web.HttpException: DataBinding: 'System.Data.DataRowView' does not contain a property with the name 'startTimes'. The code works fine when run via the Query Tool on the SQL server (SQL 2005 Std) though it produces two distinct "tables" which I'm guessing is the problem. I've tried variations on the code including creating a 2nd dataset and then attempting a merge (no joy) and I've tried the ".TableName" route but it complains about trying to add the tablename twice. Thoughts? I need to get this to work - it is part of a reporting component for an application that I'm developing and I'm stuck. Thanks as always...
I have a remote report ... I need to call one of two stored procedures depending on which parameters were passed to the report. (Both stored procedures return the same fields.) Does SQL Reporting Services allow you to switch the dataset or stored procedure name dynamically? If so, where do I put the logic? Right now I have it working with one stored procedure. I'm thinking that I should just make one stored procedure that takes all parameters and calls one of the other two stored procedures. Do I have any options besides this?
I am working on a company sign out sheet for our Intranet. The application accesses a sql database. I tried using a datareader as well as a dataset to access a small piece of information regarding the group that each employee belongs to in the company. My last attempt was to assign the value to the text property of a text box and evaluate the text from the text box with the Select Case but that did not work either.The application is supposed to generate an email to our receptionist as well as to the group technical assistant responsible for each group according to the value that is passed into the Select Case statement. With the datareader as well as the dataset and even now with creating a text box and accessing the text property, I was able to assign the group value to a variable (I can see the value in the subject of the email), but when the variable is supposed to be evaluated by the select case statement it skips right through all of the cases to case else and uses only the receptionist's address in the email as if it doesn't even see the value of the variable. I have searched for a possible answer to the problem I am but so far have had no luck. Any ideas? I included the part of the code that I am having trouble with: '********************************************************************************************' New DataSet is created to determine the group the employee belongs to so that the appropriate' group technical assistant is emailed when employee signs out'******************************************************************************************** ' declare variablesDim sqlGroup As String ' string variable to store sql statement for datasetDim BLGroup As String ' string variable to store the bl group of the employeeDim emailAddress As String ' string variable to store resulting email address Dim groupDS As DataSet ' dataset variableDim groupAdapter As SqlDataAdapter ' sql data adapter variable' sql statement to access group value from the databasesqlGroup = "SELECT BLGroup FROM BLGroupsView WHERE (RTRIM(fname) + ' ' + LTRIM(lname)='" & employee & "')" ' repopen the connection (leftover from working with the datareader)Connection.Open()' create new SqlDataAdapter applying sql statement and connectiongroupAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(sqlGroup, Connection)' create new dataset groupDS = New DataSet()' populate the datasetgroupAdapter.Fill(groupDS, "BLGroupsView") ' get the value stored in the BLGroup column (only one row is returned at a time) BLGroup = groupDS!BLGroup' Create GroupTextBox TextBox control.Dim GroupTextBox As New TextBox()' Set options for the UserTextBox TextBox control.GroupTextBox.ID = "GroupTextBox"GroupTextBox.Visible = "False"GroupTextBox.Text = BLGroup' just trying anything with this next line, even when i didn't set this the select case statement did not seem to see the value returned by the variableGroupTextBox.runat = "server" ' use a select case statement to evaluate the value of the group (didn't work when I passed in the BLGroup variable eitherSelect Case GroupTextBox.TextCase "bh"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; bhassistant@myaddress.com"Case "env"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; envassistant@myaddress.com"Case "sw"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; swassistant@myaddress.com"Case "fac"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; facassistant@myaddress.com"Case "www"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; wwwassistant@myaddress.com"Case ElseemailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com"End Select '*************************************************************************************************' set new message objectDim myMessage As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage()'**********************************************************' set message properties'********************************************************** myMessage.From = "me@myaddress.com"myMessage.To = emailAddressmyMessage.Subject = employee & " Signing Out at " & TimeOut.Text & " " & BLGroupmyMessage.Body = employee & " Signing Out at " & TimeOut.Text & " for " & Destination.Text & " will potentially return at " & EstTimeIn.Text'***********************************************************' set smtp server namesmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mailserver1"' send email using smtpsmtpMail.Send(myMessage) It sends the message and returns the BLGroup value everytime but only sends to the receptionist.

I have a SP that return a dataset and I was thinking to execute that SP inside of other SP then catch the dataset to put into a variable or put into a temp table. What I know is you can not use recordset on output and input parameter in SP correct me if im wrong. I'm just wondering if I there is a work around in this scenario.
I have 4 sets of select queries under 1 stored proc, now on the report calling the stored proc via dataset. when i run the dataset the only first set of the select query related fields appearing under the dataset.
But on the back end sql server, if i execute the same stored proc, i get 4 resultsets in one single executioln.
i am not seeing the remaingin 3 resultsets, on the reports dataset.
Is it possible on the reports or not.
In the asp.net project i was able to use that kind of stored procedures whcih has multiple select statements in 1 procedure., i use to refer 0,1,2,3 tables under a dataset.
I have a stored proc that I'm using to run a report. It works fine, but currently I'm using a parameter that is a single selection from a dropdown. I'd like to use multi select, but have not been able to get it to work.
In the data tab I'm currently using "text" for command type and :
exec sp_executesql @sql, N'@p_OfferStatus VARCHAR(100)', @p_OfferStatus = @p_OfferStatus when I run this in the data tab, it works fine, returning data, but when I try to preview it it tells me there are syntax errors. Anyone know the correct way to use multi selects with stored procs?
I have a MS Access database (mdb) containing the following tables:
Crime
Criminal
CrimeCommitted
Hideout
CriminalType
The Criminal table contains information about each criminal and the CrimeCommitted table contains information about the specific crimes. I've written the following query to return only the latest crime committed by each criminal:
Code Snippet
SELECT Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType, Max(CrimeComitted.Date) AS Last_Crime_Comitted FROM Criminal INNER JOIN CrimeComitted ON Criminal.CriminalID=CrimeComitted.CriminalID GROUP BY Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType;
This query works fine for obtaining the Criminal table data, but once i've include CrimeCommitted.Country in the SELECT statement, the data returned contained all the crimes committed by each criminal (i just need the latest crime).
The query doesn't work when another table, other than Criminal, is selected. How can i obtain the columns in the CrimeCommitted table in this query?
I've only been doing sql 2005 for a couple of months with minimal training so there's a lot I don't know. What I'm trying to do is load a nested table (industry & customer totals) based on a value from the table it's nested in. This is the relationship of the data. I have at the highest group, an industry code, then a customer, then the part and then the fiscal year. What I'm trying to accomplish is to get a group total (footer) for the (1) industry code and (2) the customer code. This footer would contain the fiscal years (ascending) and their monthly totals. I would like to take the industry code from table one and pass it to the select statement in the dataset that feeds the nested table. I've read this is not possible to load a dataset field into a parm but I've seen where some people know how to work around this. If you reply, please explain in simple terms. Thanks!
industry Customer Year OCT NOV DEC 001 - Signposts M12345 Part 1 2006 5 6 2 2007 0 3 1
I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.
I have a small number of rows in a dataset, Table 1. There is a CLOB on a large dataset, Table 2. They join on a PK. I would like to retrieve this CLOB and add it to the data flow for Table1. In short I want to emulate the following:
Table 1: Small table without CLOB, 10 rows. Table 2: Large table with CLOB, 10,000,000 rows
select CLOB from table2 where pk = (select pk from table1)
I want this to return the CLOBs for the small number of rows in Table 1. The PK is indexed obviously so it should be a fast look up.
Table 1 and Table 2 live on different Oracle databases. How do I perform this operation efficiently in SSIS? It seems the Lookup and Merge Join wont do this.

I found out the data I need for my SQL Report is already defined in a dynamic dataset on another web service. Is there a way to use web services to call another web service to get the dataset I need to generate a report? Examples would help if you have any, thanks for looking
I don't know whether anyone has this problem, but I am definitely not using the right keywords to search for a thread.
My situation is this...
I have a dataset that has values to fill cells to multiple tables in a report. However, I only want to select specific data from the dataset to fill textboxes and others. I cannot change the stored procedure, but the sample of the data is shown below:-
I know it looks weird, but the row really represents which "row" or textbox is it to fill with the Val. The Stat Column is just a way to make sure that I am filling the right values.
so my new report would have multiple tables to denote different categories. In my first table, I tried putting the cells as follows:- (expressions are highlighted in italics and bold)
I tried putting it into the headerrows instead of DetailRows, and it ended up printing the last value. Is there anyway to do this ? print all the values out in one table ? I tried using textboxes, but I think I got my expression wrong.
and it give me an error The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox5€™ contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'FalsePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.
Appreciate any advice or suggestion for this scenario !
Hi, I have a stored procedure attached below. It returns 2 rows in the SQL Management studio when I execute MyStorProc 0,28. But in my program which uses ADOHelper, it returns a dataset with tables.count=0. if I comment out the line --If @Status = 0 then it returns the rows. Obviously it does not stop in if @Status=0 even if I pass @status=0. What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.

i have two datasets.one dataset have old data from some other database.second dataset have original data from sql server 2005 database.both database have same field having id as a primary key.i want to transfer all the data from first dataset to new dataset retaining the previous data but if old dataset have the same id(primary key) as in the new one then that row will not transfer. but if the id(primary key) have changed values then the fields updated with that data.how can i do that.
D2 is a list of data. each row in D2 has a classid. D2 may or may not have all the classids in D1. all classids in D2 must be in D1.
I want to show fields in D2 and group the data with classids in D1 and show every group as a seperate table. If no data in D2 is available for a classid, It shows a empty table.
=CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!Released_DT.Value = Fields!Date2.Value, Fields!Name.Value, Nothing)) Released_DT = a date - 09/03/2015 or 09/02/2015 Date2 = returns another date value in this case 09/03/2015
What I'm trying to do is: count distinct number of people (Fields!Name.Value) if the Relased_DT = Date2.My IIF statement is returning a zero value.
Hi every body... I have a probleme I have a web Services which contains a method getValue(IDEq (int), idIndicator(int), startTime(dateTime), endTime(dateTime)) I need to call this method. But my problem is how pass parameter ? I see the tab Param but it isn't work as I wait,... maybe I do a mistake...
I want that statTime and endTime are select by the user via a calendar for example... now idIndicator and idEq was result of an other dataSet from a xml datasource...
But I don't how integrate dynamically... I try to enter a parameter via the param tab, and create and expression : =First(Fields!idEq.Value, "EquipmentDataSet") but when i execute the query, the promter display <NULL>... So I don't know how to do and if it is possible ! I hope someone can help me ! Thank you !
I am faced with a common situation but there is a little twist that makes it unique and has me stumped. Hopefully someone can point me to a solution or give me enough guidance to figure it out. Here is the situation, I am loading an XML file into a Dataset and need to update SQL tables from that Dataset but the tables are slightly different than in the DataSet. I am using C#, asp.net 2.0, visual studio 2005 and sql server 2005. When I loaded the XML into the Dataset, the Dataset contained 19 tables. I individually loaded each table from the Dataset and determined from that which tables I needed and didn't need as well as determinined which fields I needed or not. I used this information to create my SQL tables. Briefly, when creating the SQL tables, I used the dataset table name as the SQL table name and used the same column names as well. the only difference from the Dataset tables and SQL tables is 1 column has a different name (or to be more specific, a column exists in the datset that does not exist in the sql table and a column exists in the SQL table that does not exist in the dataset table). Also, some tables in the dataset do not exist in the sql Database. I know that I can spin through each row of the tables I need in the Dataset and create an insert command from the row data and insert that into the SQL table but I have 11 tables to do that with. I would like to take advantage of ADO.NET and push the datset information into sql data but I am confused on how to do this. I am confused because not all tables in the dataset are represented in the sql database and though the tablenames and most of the columns have the same name, it is not an exact fit. Can anyone point me to a solution or give me a good game plan that I can search on to help me load my dataset info to a sql DB. I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

I am using storedprocedure for a process... i am selecting 4 variables from the stored procedure as a ouput parameters.. now please help me in working with a dataset to collect the 4 variables and read the variables from the dataset...
Would anyone have any suggestions on how to modify this procedure so that it returns only one dataset, but yet still keeps the data seperated? Or is this even possible?
