SSIS Concatination

Nov 30, 2007

I have a query in SSIS which works fine.

SELECT SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 7, 2) AS EXP3, SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 5, 2) AS EXPR1, SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 1, 4) AS EXPR2
FROM WAITLIST

results





20


12


1948



07


09


1982



29


07


1960

However, when I try to concatinate, it falls over

SELECT SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 7, 2) + '/' + SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 5, 2) + '/' + SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 1, 4) AS EXPR2
FROM WAITLIST

The syntax works ok on SQL Server query, but not in SSIS.

(Reading from Oracle, number 19481220, an is varchar2)



Select will work with pipes (as in oracle) but it must be of the form | | '/' | |

that is

SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 7, 2) | | '/' | | SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 5, 2) | | '/' | | SUBSTR(DOB_CHAR, 1, 4) AS EXP2

I would like to know if this is correct, or is it because I am reading from Oracle?

I do get an error message in query builder, but the query then runs as required.
Error in list of function arguments: '|' not recognized.
Error in list of function arguments: ',' not recognized.
Error in list of function arguments: ')' not recognized.
Unable to parse query text.

Any views?

Concatination Query?

Mar 22, 2007

I have a need to query some data and string all my results by id. I am fairly close to the results but stuck on the final piece. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the scenario: My data looks as follows:








UserID
Results

1095
,,,,,,,

1095
,,,,,8,,

1095
,,,,,,,

1095
,,,,,8,,

1247
,2,3,,,6,,,

1247
,2,3,,,6,,,

1247
,2,3,,,6,,,

1247
,2,3,,,6,,,

4069
,,,,,,,

4069
,,,,,,,

4069
,,,,,,,

4069
,,,,,,,

4070
,,6,,,,,

4070
,,6,,,,,

4070
,,6,,,,,

4070
,,6,,,,,

I want to query it and end up with the results all strung together under each UserID as follows:








1095
,,,,,,,,,,,,8,,,,,,,,,,,,,,8,,

1247
,2,3,,,6,,,,2,3,,,6,,,,2,3,,,6,,,,2,3,,,6,,,

4069
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

4070
,,6,,,,,,,6,,,,,,,6,,,,,,,6,,,,,

I know if I use the following code I can string all the results together

select *, Cast((SELECT Results + ',' FROM #temp1 FOR XML PATH('')) as varchar(max) ) as Results from #temp1

But I can't figure out how to break it down by individual UserID. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Concatination Help Required From Gurus!!

Oct 17, 2001

I need to execute the following code by passing the username as a parameter.Can I get help to complete the SQL statement??

exec ('sp_changeobjectowner '+ @Table_name +','+@ToUser) ---> This works fine.

But I need to have something like this:

exec ('sp_changeobjectowner '@username.+ @Table_name +','+@ToUser)

Note:
Here is the sample working syntax:
sp_changeobjectowner 'user1.eb_sku', user2

So,I need user1 and user2 as two different parameters.

As you see,I need to qualify the table name with the owner name which itself I want to pass as a parameter.

Any help with syntax is greatly appreciated!!

String Concatination From XML In SQL Server 2005

Jul 17, 2006

I have a stored procedure where I want to loop through the nodes of an XML type and use its values to perform string concatination.
I'm new to the XML type in SQL Server and to XQuery in T-SQL and am wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. The XML samples I've found so far focuses on returning a set of nodes or building XML to store, not reading it in T-SQL and building strings.

Concatination Of Empty Field And Removal Of Symbols

Mar 21, 2006

Hello...

I am going crazy trying to figure out how to do this. I have a flat file which I am massaging the data and loading into a table here is an example of a line out of the flat file:

"ABC NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS","550","","","N","FAIR OAKS","","","COLORADO SPRINGS","C0","","","","","","","","A","","",""

My problem is that I have one field which is this address in a concatinated form. The fields that do not apply to this entry are suite#, floor# and other columns which are designated by the "" characters. The final concatinated addres field looks like this:

"550""""N""FAIR OAKS"""

I would like to remove the "" characters in the concatinated string. I just don't know the best way to do this? I was told DTS had a way of removing the "" from the flat file source. Since I have not used DTS extensively I am not sure if this is true. I was wondering how in SSIS I could go about removing the "" marks without removing the "" say if someone is quoted eg. John said "This is only a test". Removing the quotation marks in this instance would be changing the data. I am not sure how to do this and any help or advice is greatly appreciated!

Thank you...

Urgent Help Please

Feb 25, 2007

Hi Guys
i write a thread before asking for help with reading an uploaded csv file,
i have my code, it reads the csv file and currently displays it in a datagrid but what i actually want is to take the read information and import it into my sql express db.
Heres the code<script runat="server">
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
If (IsPostBack) Then
Grid1.Visible = True
Else
Grid1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Sub UploadButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
'Save the uploaded file to an "Uploads" directory
' that already exists in the file system of the
' currently executing ASP.NET application.
' Creating an "Uploads" directory isolates uploaded
' files in a separate directory. This helps prevent
' users from overwriting existing application files by
' uploading files with names like "Web.config".
Dim saveDir As String = "Data"

' Get the physical file system path for the currently
' executing application.
Dim appPath As String = Request.PhysicalApplicationPath

' Before attempting to save the file, verify
' that the FileUpload control contains a file.
If (FileUpload1.HasFile) Then
Dim savePath As String = appPath + saveDir + FileUpload1.FileName

' Call the SaveAs method to save the
' uploaded file to the specified path.
' This example does not perform all
' the necessary error checking.
' If a file with the same name
' already exists in the specified path,
' the uploaded file overwrites it.
FileUpload1.SaveAs(savePath)

' Notify the user that the file was uploaded successfully.
UploadStatusLabel.Text = "Your file was uploaded successfully."

Else
' Notify the user that a file was not uploaded.
UploadStatusLabel.Text = "You did not specify a file to upload."
End If

End Sub

Sub DisplayButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim sConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=C:inetpubwwwrootMerlinLocalPostOfficeAppData;Extended Properties=""text;HDR=NO;FMT=Delimited"""
Dim objConn As New OleDbConnection(sConnectionString)
objConn.Open()
Dim objCmdSelect As New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM csv.txt", objConn)
Dim objAdapter1 As New OleDbDataAdapter()
objAdapter1.SelectCommand = objCmdSelect
Dim objDataset1 As New DataSet()
objAdapter1.Fill(objDataset1, "csv.txt")
Grid1.DataSource = objDataset1.Tables(0).DefaultView
Grid1.DataBind()
objConn.Close()
End Sub


</script> 
My csv file does not have headers so the default value is F1, F2, F3 F4, F5,F6, F7, my database has  the following columns, ID,AddressLine1,AddressLine2,AddressLine3,AddressLine4,AddressLine5,AddressLine6,Postcode
I need to know how to import the information direct into the db rather than displaying it on the page, ive tried but im really new to this and cant get it to work.  I cant use DTS or bulk insert as the server this will go on doesnt have sql on it, the db is an MDF file so is transportable with the app.
Thanks for your help
