Conversion Issues On Output Columns With Script Task
Mar 14, 2006
I am not sure which type to use for my Script Transformation Editor output fields. I'm getting errors based on the Data Type I'm specifying for my fields.

I'm not sure if this is needed but here's the script I coded in my script task also:
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
I created an Excel Source and used a query to get the data,i.e
SELECT F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7 FROM [Fut Days$A20:G1480]
The query works fine, the preview returns the rows, but SSIS will not generate output Columns nor will it let me manually add them? Am I missing something?
I am using execute sql task to run a stored procedure in oracle database which returns a resultset. This works. Now I need to send the ouput to a destination table in a sql database. Should I use for each loop to pick the resultset and insert it into the destination one by one (which I dont think is a great idea) or is there a better way to accomplish this task (in data flow task) ?
When I use dataflow task instead of execute sql task, the main issue is I am not able to see the output columns when I execute an oracle stored procedure, but when I see the preview I can see the resultset . But I can see the output columns for a sql server stored procedure.
I have a SQL Task that calls a stored procedure and returns an output parameter. The task fails with error "Value does not fall within the expected range." The Stored Procedure is defined as follows: Create Procedure [dbo].[TestOutputParms] @InParm INT , @OutParm INT OUTPUT as Set @OutParm = @InParm + 5 The task uses an OLEDB connection and has a source type of Direct Input. The SQL Statement is Exec TestOutputParms 7, ? output The parameter mapping is: Variable Name Direction Data Type Parameter Name User::OutParm Output LONG @OutParm
Here is what I get. Is this an install problem or is this how this software works??

Can someone please explain the difference between Output and External columns? I can't fathom why "Output" columns aren't good enough. In other words, what is there a need or value in having two types of "output" columns?
It seems to me, after some frustrations, that Destination components (and perhaps the Source components as well) should have included data conversation facilities as part of their designer/UI; being the experts on their data requirements. In particular, for the Destination components, data conversion could have simply been an extension of their record mapping activity.
Presently, I am force to seperately (1) note the datatypes, then (2) convert them in the Conversion component, then (3) map them in the Destination component, then (4) cuss...(think a lot of fields now and going forward)...
A seperate Data Conversion task might still be useful for completeness, but generally data conversation is only meaninful when you are directly accessing a datastore.
I am curious as to why data conversation features was not embedded in the Destination component (e.g. in its superclass)? Perhaps I am missing a subtle point.
I think I have a basic question. Can someone tell me the command I can use to have a stored procedure run and generate output? This is for SQL 6.5.
I would like to schedule the sp_help_revdatabase stored procedure to run periodically and output it to a file. I think this is possible, but I haven't been able to come up with the syntax...
What I'm trying to do is get an XML query from a database and use the XML to render an excel document. Can this be done using SSIS? Can I actually read a column from a database and store it in a variable and then create an excel spreadsheet with that variable in SSIS? Would this be done in the control flow using the XML task editor?
I have a stored procedure that returns XML and have defined my own "Root" element w/ "ROOT('urlset')" in the stored procedure. When I put this into my Control Flow, I have a subsequent task that takes this XML stream and writes it to a file. The issue I am running into is that SSIS is adding it's own "Root" element before my output. Is there any way of avoiding this?
I have a UDF which returns a string of XML data (of the data type XML)
I want to use this UDF within an Execute SQL Task to set a variable to the output of the UDF. I then want to use the variable to pass the XML string to a XML Task to apply an XSLT to the XML.
I have set the following properties in the Execute SQL Task:
ResultSet: XML
SQLSourceType: Direct Input
SQLStatement: SELECT [dbo].[fn_GENERATE_XML](123) as rawxml
ResultName: 0
Variable Name:user::xml (where the variable is of type string)
My problem is something to do with the UDF call as if I substitute the UDF for a simple SELECT statement with a FOR XML Clause it works fine.
I've got a question that I can't seem to find an answer for, I was hoping someone here might be able to point me in the right direction. I've set up a stored procedure that will email someone if any entries are added to a table . However, the output is garbled looking (see below)
Client Number SSN Client Name Old SD New SD ------------- ----------- ---------------------------------------- -------- -------- 800901 899-34-3482 John Smith 04/20/20 05/01/20 400909 144-23-0029 John Smith 04/09/20 04/11/20 447788 445-89-9967 kjl;j;j 04/05/20 04/12/20 300099 234-90-7815 John Johnson 04/08/20 04/15/20
What's happened is the client name field is too wide, so the New SD field kicks down to the next line. I'd like to clean this up. Is there a way I can either increase the length of the row before it moves to the next line, or can I re-size the client name field to match the size of the data. In other words, cli_name_vc is declared as a varchar(40). If the longest name that comes up in the query is 18 characters long, can I re-size the output so that it does not take up 40 characters?
Using MySQL 5, MySQLQuery (latest). Complete Newbie,
I have the following query:
SELECT i.IndivId, i.Surname, i.First_Names, i.Parents, (SELECT i.Surname FROM individuals i, families f where (i.IndivId = f.father_ID) and (i.indivId = f.Family_ID)) as "father" FROM individuals i where i.Parents>0 order by i.Parents;
It returns nulls for the subselect. There are 2 tables, individuals and Parents. I am trying to use a father id. in the PArents table to cause the individual id. (being the father of the individual(s)) to be named in the father column. I have a feeling I'm going wrong here.
I think the query above is pretty self explanatory!
Where does output from <xsl:message> stylesheet elements go? It's not in the Progress or Output window, and there doesn't seem to be a property that controls the destination for messages.
If ive got different pieces in a dataflow, how could I for example, see the output of a datasource before it gets to destination ? If im executing a task, what can i get access to from the immedate window to see the outputs at various stages ?
I am learning SSIS, and am trying to save the XML output from a SQL task executing a stored procedure. I need to either save it to a .xml file, then FTP the .xml file to an external server, or do the reverse (FTP, then save file.) I can't get past the SQL task so that it works with the File System Task, or the FTP task. Here is the stored procedure Create Procedure [dbo].[HRGCSpace] (@HRGSpace nvarchar(max) = ''Output) as Begin Set NOCOUNT On set @HRGSpace = (select CustomerNumber 'CustomerNumber/@id',StartDate 'StartDate/@id', EndDate 'EndDate/@id',Action 'Action/@id', WorkZoneNumber 'WorkZoneNumber/@id',BuildingName 'BuildingName/@id',BuildingFloorPlan 'BuildingFloorPlan/@id', FloorName 'FloorName/@id',FloorFloorPlan 'FloorFloorPlan/@id',SpaceName 'SpaceName/@id',VacantUnit 'VacantUnit/@id', SpaceFloorPlan 'SpaceFloorPlan/@id',Address1 'Street/@id',Address2 'Street2/@id',City 'City/@id', StateProv 'StateProv/@id',ZIPPost 'ZipPosCode/@id',MoveOutDate 'MoveOutDate/@id' from HRGCvCorrigoUnits order by BuildingName, SpaceName For XML Path ('Space'), Root('HRGSpaces')) End -------------------------------------- Here is the execute from the SQL Task DECLARE @HRGSpace nvarchar(max) EXEC HRGCSpace @HRGSpace Output
If I define the SSIS variable User::HRGSpaces as string, Direction = Output, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = 0 , then use in the SQLTask General ResultSet = None, Bypass Prepare = True, Connection Type = OLE DB, IsQuery Stored Procedure = False, Parameter Mapping for User::HRGSpaces,Direction = Output, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = 0 the Progress is "Progress: Executing query "DECLARE @HRGSpace nvarchar(max) EXEC HRGCSpace @HR". - 100 percent complete Task Execute SQL Task - select the XML Output failed Error: The wrapper was unable to set the value of the variable specified in the ExecutionValueVariable property.
If I change it so that ResultSet = XML, the Progress is " [Execute SQL Task] Error: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_XML".
If I add ResultName = 0, and VariableName= HRGSpaces, I'm back to "Progress: Executing query "DECLARE @HRGSpace nvarchar(max) EXEC HRGCSpace @HR". - 100 percent complete Task Execute SQL Task - select the XML Output failed Error: The wrapper was unable to set the value of the variable specified in the ExecutionValueVariable property."
Leaving the ResultSet = XML, and changing the SSIS variable as Object, the Progress is " [Execute SQL Task] Error: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_XML".
Changing the ResultSet back to None, but leaving the variable as Object, the SQL task will successfully execute, but the File System Task with IsSourcePathVariable = True and SourceVariable = User::HRGSpaces when executed errors out with "[File System Task] Error: Variable "HRGSpaces" is not a string. Error: There were errors during task validation. Validation is completed. Warning: SSIS Warning Code DTS_W_MAXIMUMERRORCOUNTREACHED. The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (3) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
So, how to I resolve the Object vs String definition. Any help in getting beyond this is appreciated!
Hi Everyone, I am trying to do a query where I need to use as little C# as possible to build my gridview. Basically I have a column called statusID. There are about 15 options for this column but I only want to count certain ones. I want to count when statusID = 3 and output that into a column called "fullUnitsUsed" but when the value is 4 or > 13 I want it to count and put the result into a column called "halfUnitsUsed". I also want it to count based on the month. To accomplish this I have used CASE and GROUP BY. This has worked to some extent. Currently if I COUNT for one month I get the correct number of fullUnitsUsed and halfUnitsUsed used for January. Unfortunately the query returns 2 records for the month. The first one has a value for fullUnitsUsed and halfUnitsUsed is NULL, the second record has fullUnitsUsed as NULL and halfUnitsUsed has the correct value. I was hoping to output one record where both fullUnitsUsed and halfUnitsUsed have data. My other problem is that if I test for the entire year (which is what this query is supposed to do) there are 5 records returned for each month, 3 of the records have fullUnitsUsed and halfUnitsUsed both as NULL and for the other 2, one has fullUnitsUsed with data and the other has halfUnitsUsed with data and the other column in both records is NULL. The values for fullUnitsUsed and halfUnitsUsed are counted for the entire year as well, which I only want it to count based on each month. Below is my query, any suggestions about how to approach this will be greatly appreciated. If any clarification is needed please let me know. Again if I could get this to work completely with SQL and not need to use any more C# than I have to it would be preferable. SELECT People.lastName + ', ' + People.firstName AS fullName, Property.Name, NYSDDSORegion.Description, OpenDays.[month], OpenDays.maxOpenDays,CASE Attend.statusID WHEN 3 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) END AS fullUnitsUsed,CASE Attend.statusID WHEN 4 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 14 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 15 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 16 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 17 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 18 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 19 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) WHEN 20 THEN COUNT(Attend.statusID) END AS halfUnitsUsed FROM Attend INNER JOIN People ON Attend.personID = People.personID INNER JOIN Property ON Attend.propertyID = Property.propertyID INNER JOIN NYSDDSORegion ON Property.RegionID = NYSDDSORegion.RegionID CROSS JOIN OpenDays WHERE (Attend.attendDate BETWEEN '1/1/2007' AND '12/31/2007') GROUP BY Property.Name, People.lastName, NYSDDSORegion.Description, People.firstName, OpenDays.monthID, OpenDays.[month], OpenDays.maxOpenDays, Attend.statusID ORDER BY Property.Name, fullName, NYSDDSORegion.Description
There are several events. Each event has several different sessions (stored in EventOptionGroups), and each session has a certain number of options (stored in Options).
A user can sign up for an event, and their information is stored in EventRegistration. They can choose an option for each session in the event. For each option they choose, a new row is added to RegistrantOptions.
For each row in EventRegistration, I want to output the user's information, and then the option they chose for each session in the event. Like this:
I need it to dynamically output based off COL1, the output should look like this. When there are more rows for CAT, it should output more columns. Kind of like merging the columns
Hi All,Currently the query returns 2006-03-27 00:00:00, can I make it output03/27/2006, I want to truncate the time, and replace the hyphens withforward slashes. Any ideas?Thanks In Advance,~CK
When setting an output's "IsErrorOut" property to true, is it also possible to add additional columns to that error output?
I'd like to add a message beyond the standard errorCode and errorColumn columns, a column which is the "specific error message", not just a lookup on the errorCode.
I map the columns, refresh & OK out of the component without trouble, but on executing the package it fails during validation on this component. I'm utterly stumped. Any light shed would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance, Tamim.
I apologise if this question has been asked before but I have spent ages searching these forums and the internet for an answer and I am yet to find one.
My problem is that I have a package which imports a column, lets call it 'Column A'. Column A is used to create other columns, lets say Columns B, C & D. This is done in a script using asychronous input and once completed column A is no longer used. Other tranformations occur to B, C & D including a split and then finally a merge together again, but all the time A seems to remain a valid input on all processes yet I never choose to use or output it. When I come to the merge process I am required to merge columns B, C & D but also A, surely this is inefficient. Furthermore when the package has run I get a warning telling me that Column A is not required and should be removed, but I can not seem to find anywhere to remove it from the pipe.
I am hoping that I am just missing something obvious here but I have been tearing my hair out so any help would be much appreciated!
I'm just starting to find my way around SSIS, coming from SQL 2000 DTS, but I can't see a way of including a Win32 Console application's output into the logging process.
I've started playing around with SSIS Logs (OnTaskFailed etc..), but I can find no where to allow me to capture the output from a console app. In SQL 2000 DTS I could capture this by specifying an "output file" on the advanced tab of the job step definition. Is there something as straight forward as this in SSIS ?
I'd be grateful for a few pointers in the right direction.
I am trying to transfer data from one table to the other using a Data Flow Task of SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) I am using an OLE DB Source and an OLE DB Destination.
Source Table TABLE1 Column Datatype ID - Int ,not null EmployeeName - nvarchar(50), null
Destination Table TABLE2 Column Datatype ID - Int ,not null EmployeeName - nvarchar(50), not null
There are 10 rows in TABLE1 of which 2 have null value in EmployeeName column. If I try to populate all TABLE1 row values into TABLE2 the data flow will fail as TABLE2.EmployeeName will not accept null value. So I have inserted a FlatFileDestination into the DataFlow and the OLE DB Destination ErrorOutput is set as input to the FlatFile. In the OLE DB Destination Editor the ErrorOutput€™s error property is set to Redirect Row. When I do this the 8 correct data from TABLE1 will be inserted into TABLE2 and the two rows with null value will be inserted into the FlatFile.
My requirement is this: I don€™t want any data to be inserted into TABLE2 but I want the two erroneous records to be written into the FlatFile.
I have designed a package that reads in rows from an Excel file into a recordset then loops through the recordset sending two parameters to a webservice task. This works fine however I now need to output the results of the webservice task to a file or recordset - I have tried outputting to a file however it only stores the last result as the file is overwritten each time - I am new to SSIS and am sure there must be a really simple way to do this but cannot find an help on how to do it !
