Hi There,
My requirement is to read from a table in SQL 2000 and need to export the
data in a XML format with .XML in a flat file.
I don't want to do to use ADO or VB or any other external tools to do this. I want it to be purely done using SQL server within enviroment.
How to generate this kind of XML files from
SQL server?.
Kindest regards,
Chris.G
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows how to convert an array of bytes to an SQL CE 3 image type and vice versa.
I am using the SDF Signature control and I would like to store the signature as an Image. It needs to be an image so it can be synced with a desktop access 2003 database.
Cheers

hello,
I'm not really sure my question belongs to here...
I have a database in Access (from microsoft office, of course), and I want to transfer convert it to SQL Server.
Does anyone know how I can do it? It must be very simple, but I haven't found it yet....
Thanks a lot!

I want to conver ta excel file int o a sql file how can i do that.

I have two postcode databases in .sql ready to dump into my existing database, the first sql file is 300megs and
the second one is 300k, the reason the second is so small is because it misses out the last 3 letters of the post
code, i dont need theese last 3 digits anyway.
Basically i want to convert the second file so that it is compatible for me to import it into my database and use.
the first file looks like this
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101GY',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1476,-2.0975);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101NP',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1467,-2.1074);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101RQ',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1467,-2.1107);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101TT',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1431,-2.114);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB101WX',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,0,0);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB106AA',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.135,-2.1156);
INSERT INTO `ZIPCodes` VALUES ('AB106DE',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,57.1377,-2.1173);
And the second file looks like this:
insert into `hwz_postcodes` values ('postc',0,0,0,0),('AB10',392900,804900,57,-2),('AB11',394500,805300,57,-2),('AB12',393300,801100,57,-2),('AB13',385600,801900,57,-2),('AB14',383600,801100,57,-2),('AB15',390000,805300,57,-2),('AB16',390600,807800,57,-2),('AB21',387900,813200,57,-2),('AB22',392800,810700,57,-2),('AB23',394700,813500,57,-2),('AB25',393200,806900,57,-2),('AB30',370900,772900,56,-2),('AB31',368100,798300,57,-2),('AB32',380800,807200,57,-2),('AB33',355200,815100,57,-2),('AB34',350800
Is there any utility out there that can do this for me? What about the co-ordinates systems, they look incompatible,
so the converter would need to be able to convert the co-ordinates aswell. It would also need to add in all those nulls.
once the file is converted i would then import it through the sql command line.
Why am I such an SQL n00b!???
please tell the steps

How to store the html file in sql server data.
I am creating some applications for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices to be used internally at our company. Each device will run several home grown applications that will all share the same common SQL Mobile database.
What I am wondering is whether or not there is a standard path where such a database is typically stored in Windows Mobile 5.0. I see a folder called Application Data. Is that what it is for, or is that one for something else? I'm not real familiar with the layout of the Pocket PC in general. Could someone tell me where vendors normally put their database file(s)?

How to convert a SQL table into Text file? I have a table and I want to extract the values with the field names above to a text file. The query should also allow me to define the starting position of the fields in the text file.
email: vijay.prasad@in.ibm.com
This file format has multiple levels (X12).One level could have one or more instances of thenext level contained within it. Kind of like XML,except that some sections have no end tags, and theones that do have end tags actually have a _different_tag for the end. (ISA ...IEA or GS ... GE)It's easy enough to read a line at a time, see whattype it is, and insert its parts into the appropriatetable. Keeping track of the keys of the parent levelfor relationships.But I'm wandering whether there's some (not impossiblycomplex) more efficient method with SQL and/or DTS.--Wes GroleauIf you put garbage in a computer nothing comes out but garbage.But this garbage, having passed through a very expensive machine,is somehow ennobled and none dare criticize it.

I am trying to import a store xml file which has dtd into sql. The file is 97,211 kb. I want to get the data and columns into sql 2005. So far I have tried this:
DECLARE @xml XML;
use yahoostore
CREATE TABLE Products(xmlCol XML)
INSERT INTO Products(XmlCol)
SELECT
CONVERT(XML, BulkColumn, 2)
FROM OPENROWSET (BULK 'C:databasexmldtdyahoostore.xml', SINGLE_BLOB)AS X
This creates the table and only one column which takes a while to open, but I do not see anything in it.
Could someone please help with this problem. I have used openrowset and openxml and I am getting no where.

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 !
Thanks in advance K
I have recently designed and built my first database using SQL server 2005 express. I have included an image (BLOB) column in one of the database tables. This is a bad idea according to some experts, and some say it is OK!
I am currently carrying out a trial with just 3 pictures via Visual Basic 2005 express forms, and there is no problem so far as the images are displayed for each record. But I anticipate between 300 - 1000 images for the table, and this could pose real problems for SQL server 2005 express and Visual Basic 2005 express, I guess.
I have just been reading that the cost of storing large images in the database is too high! I have also read it's better to store images (BLOB) into the file system because it is cheaper to store them no matter how many there are.
But the question is how I can reference an image in this path: C:PictureProductGrocery 0052745.jpg in the database table, so that when I select a record Visual Basic 2005 forms the image is displayed accordingly, similar as when stored directly in the database table? Your help very much appreciated.
hi guys..

Is it possible that i can write a Store procedure so that i can use that .... Please help me.. i dont' a single clue about this..

First, a couple of important bits of information. Until last week, I had never touched SISS, and therefore, I know very little about it. I just never had the need to use it...until now. I was able to convert my first 3 flat files to SQL2005 tables by right clicking on "SISS Package" and choosing "SISS Import and Export Wizard". That is the extent of my knowledge! So please, please, please be patient with me and be as descriptive as possible.
I thought I could attach some sample files to this post, but it doesn't look like I can. I'll just paste the information below in two separate code boxes. The first code box is the flat file specifications and the second one is a sample single line flat file similar to what I'm dealing with (the real flat file is over 2 gigs).
My questions are below the sample files.

As you can see, each entry could have any number of records and multiples of some of the record types, with one exception, every entry must have a "01" record and can only have one "01" record. Oh, and each record has a length of 400.
I need to get this information into a SQL 2005 database so I can create a front end for accessing the data. Originally, I wanted one line for each account and have null values listed for entries that don't have a specific record. Now that I've looked at the data again, that doesn't look like a good idea. I think a better way to do it would be to create 5 different tables, one for each record type. However, records 2 through 5 don't have anything I can make a primary key. So here are my questions...
Is it possible to make 5 tables from this one file, one table for each of the record types?
If so, can I copy the Account number in record 01, position 13-19 in each of the subsequent record types (that way I could link the tables as needed)?
Can this be done using the SISS Import and Export Wizard to create the package? If not, I'm going to need some very basic step by step instructions on how to create the package.
Is SISS the best way to do this conversion or is there another program that would be better to use?
I know this is a huge question and I appreciate the help of anyone who boldly decides to help me! Thank you in advance and I welcome anyone's suggestions!
I am trying to create hierarchyID for a directory file path.
