I use expressions to build the SQL query that is executed by the data flow.
Today, I ran into an issue. For the first time the SQL query has exceeded 4000 char so the expression cannot be validated and it is not possible to use it.
Is there a way to change the expression datatype to nvarchar(max) instead of the default nvarchar(4000) ?
I have a Foreach Loop Container task. I am using it to loop through some files in a folder. I tried to use an expression to set the folder to a variable called DataDirectory. I did not see a folder expression.
This is nutty. I never got this error on my local machine. The only lower case m in the sql is by near the variable Ratingsum like in line 59.

I would like to modify "Files" attribute of the Foreach Loop of type File Enumerator. This attribute is used to set the mask (for example *.txt) to specify which files to include in the selection. I need to be able to change this mask dynamically depending on package global variable. Is this possible?
why when I make a change to a foreach loop container in a SSIS package it does not save?
I am trying to change the base file name and if I change it through either the edit or properties windows, the changes does not save. Fore example i change the Files: or File Spec: from oldfile*.txt to newfilename*.txt and when I save and og bak into the edit area to confirm the change, the Files: section shows as "oldfile*.txt.
How do I change the report title via an expression? I have a parameter that can contain 1 of 3 values and want to change my Report Title accordingly. Can I nest the IIF statements somehow or how can I accomplish this?
I have some SSIS variables of type System.Object (they have to be this type because they are used to hold the results of a single row result set in an Execute SQL task which is querying an Oracle database. Although I know the Oracle table columns are Numeric, this was the only SSIS type that worked).
My problem is that I want to use these variables in expressions, but can't - I get the error "The data type of variable "User::varObjectVar" is not supported in an expression".
The only workaround I can think of is to use a script to assign the numeric values (integers, in fact) that these variables hold to other variables of type Int32.
Is that my only option, or am I missing something?
Is there a way of taking a result from a query and pulling out a certain account number and displaying those account numbers - as fred? Eg. I have a drop down of account number (s) however they pull from a table that only displays them as account numbers. I would like to give more a description to certain account numbers that are pulled. Eg. account number 234 will be fred and account number 555 will be sam etc. Trying to add it to the query on the dataset is complicated, so I was wondering if I created an additional blank field with an expression to be able to do this?Â
"UNION " & _ "SELECT p.ProductID, p.ProductTitle FROM Product p " & _ "WHERE (p.Price > '" & FormatCurrency(lowestPrice, 2) & "' AND p.Price < '" & FormatCurrency(highestPrice, 2) & "') " & _ "ORDER BY p.ProductTitle"
I don't know where the error goes wrong in here.. previously because of the union missing one spacing that resulted in syntax error, after i inserted a space to it.. it shows me Data type mismatch the criteria expression. Is it because in my sql coding i cant use FormatCurrency for ASP.net? please give me a hand.. thank you

I am loading data from an iseries into a sql server 2005 DB. Our dates are stored as a numeric value in a format of CYYMMDD where C = Century indicator 20'th is 0 and 21'st is 1, YY = Year, MM = Month and DD = Day!
Today would be 1070701. Now I want to use a derived column which which would be of type date using an expression to do the conversion.
Usually, we would add 19000000 to the number to give us 20070701 then I'd convert it to a string and then substring into a date format.
I'm just getting started with SQL 2005 so I don't know how to do this using an expression.
I have a query however i am getting the following error message “Msg 447, Level 16, State 0, Line 1 Expression type numeric is invalid for COLLATE clause.“
This is my query
SELECT sjo.ID, sjo.MID, sjo.Trade_Association_Name, da1.Account_Name As Trade_Association_Name, substring(do.[MM-CHN-AGENT],2,12) as Mass_Agent_Chain_No,
[Code] ....
And Dan.Stg_Jitter_Opp2 table consists of the following
ColumnNameData Type Idvarchar(50) Mid numeric(18, 0) RecordTypeIDvarchar(50) Trade_Association_Name varchar(50)
And [FDMS].[SalesForce].[DailyAccounts]table consists of the following
ColumnNameData Type Idint Account_Idvarchar(18) account_Name varchar(150) mid_externalvarchar(15) Mid_internalvarchar(15)

If i place a loop container inside a sequence container the connectors within the loop container disappear.... is this a bug - will the loop tasks still run in the correct order?? or will they fire off willy nilly??
l'm running this procedure and l get this error. All l'm trying to do is to get the size of the database and its objects and what the size should be so that its sized right. Is there a better way of doing this ?

Server: Msg 8115, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_totalsize, Line 3 Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int.
Under certain circumstances I am getting the following error
"Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int"
when running the following code:
SELECT Count(*), Sum(GrossWinAmount) FROM LGSLog WHERE (CurrentDate >= '9/1/2004 8:00:00 AM') And (CurrentDate <= '9/27/2004 7:59:59 AM')
If I remove the "Sum(GrossWinAmount)" from the select, it works fine. I therefore believe that Sum is causing the error. Is there a version of Sum that works with larger variables, such as a BigInt? If not, is there some way to do the equivalent using larger numbers? I need to allow for the possibility of obtaining one month's summary, and sometimes the summary value is apparently too large for Sum to handle.
I've got this error message while generate the output with ASP:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005) Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int."
it indicate that the error is related to this line: "rc1.Movenext"
where rc1 is set as objconn.Execute(sql).
Not all outputs result like this, it happens when it has many relationships with other records, especially with those records which also have many relationships with other records.
Can anyone suggest a solution? I've tried to increase the size of the database file, but it doesn't work.
I got this error for a calculated field that calls a public function of a custom assembly based on the report parameter values. The return type is an array of double.
Does SSRS 2005 supports the type double for a field? Can the data source of a field in a dataset be an array? Is there a way to pass the array to a field by reference and display the values at runtime?
I would appreciate any help since I could not find anything helpful on the internet and Microsoft document!
Hi all,In the beginning of this month I've build a website with a file-upload-control. When uploading a file, a record (filename, comment, datetime) gets written to a SQLExpress database, and in a gridview a list of the files is shown. On the 7th of September I uploaded some files to my website, and it worked fine. In the database, the datetime-record shows "07/09/2006 11:45". When I try to upload a file today, it gives me the following error: Error: Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime. The statement has been terminated.While searching in google, i found it might have something to do with the language settings of my SQLExpress, I've tried changing this, but it didn't help. What I find weird is that it worked fine, and now it doesn't anymore. Here is my code of how I get the current date to put it into the database:1 SqlDataSource2.InsertParameters.Add("DateInput", DateTime.Now.ToString()); Am I doing something wrong, or am I searching for a solution in the wrong place? best regards, Dimitri
Hi, I'm having this error with my page, user picks the date -using the AJAX Control Toolkit Calender with the format of ( dd/MM/yyyy ). It looks like the application current format is MM/dd/yyyy, because it shows the error page if the day is greater than 12, like: 25/03/2007 What is wrong?

In my sql statement, I don't have any datatype as INT, when I run it, give me error as 'Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int'.

I am attempting to setup a replication from SQL Server 2005 that will be read by SQL Server Compact Edition (beta). I'm having trouble getting the Publication Wizard to create the Publication. Sample table definition that I'm replicating:
USE dbPSMAssist_Development; CREATE TABLE corporations ( id NUMERIC(19,0) IDENTITY(1964,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, idWas NUMERIC(19,0) DEFAULT 0, logIsActive BIT DEFAULT 1, vchNmCorp VARCHAR(75) NOT NULL,
vchStrtAddr1 VARCHAR(60) NOT NULL, vchNmCity VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, vchNmState VARCHAR(2) NOT NULL, vchPostalCode VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, vchPhnPrimary VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL, ); CREATE INDEX ix_corporations_nm ON corporations(vchNmCorp, id); GO
When the wizard gets to the step where it is creating the publication, I get the following error message:
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type bigint. Changed database context to 'dbPSMAssist_Development'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 8115).
I can find no information on what this error is or why I am receiving the error. Any ideas on how to fix would be appreciated.

I thought I'd post this quick problem and answer, as I couldn't find the answer when searching for it. I tried to call a stored procedure on SQL Server 2000 using the System.Data.SqlClient objects, and was not expecting any unusual issues. However when I came to call the Fill method I received the error "Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int." My first checks were the obvious ones of verifying that I'd provided all the correct datatypes and had no unexpected null values, but I found nothing out of order. The problem turns out to be a difference on the maximum values for integers between C# and SQL Server 2000. Previously having hit issues with SQL Server integers requiring Long Integer types in VB6, I was aware that these are 32-bit integers, so I was passing in Int32 variables. The problem was that Int32.MaxValue is not a valid integer for SQL Server. Seeing as I was providing an abitrary upper value for records-per-page (to fetch all in one page), I was simply able to change this to Int16.MaxValue and will hit no further problems as this is also well beyond any expected range for this parameter. If anyone can name off the top of their heads what value should be provided as a maximum integer for SQL Server 2000, this might be a useful addition, but otherwise I hope this spares others some hunting if they also experience this problem.
