I'm Trying to replicate the creation of an "xml" file that is currently created using a C++ application. I want to take that application out of the picture, but need to create the same format XML file because a step later in the production process uses this file, and I cannot change it.
The output format I am looking for is:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FUNDS>
<AMRGX>
<NAME>AMERICAN GROWTH D</NAME>
</AMRGX>
<AHERX>
<NAME>AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND</NAME>
</AHERX>
<AMRVX>
<NAME>AMERICAN INVESTORS GROWTH FUND</NAME>
</AMRVX>
.
.
.
</FUNDS>The problem I am having is that I cannot seem to get the level/node of the fund symbol (AMRGX, AHERX, and AMRVX in the example above) as it needs to be. I think this must be some non-standard use of XML, since the tag is really the data itself (?)
The closest I have been able to get so far is:
<FUNDS>
<SYMBOL>AMRGX</SYMBOL>
<NAME>AMERICAN GROWTH D</NAME>
</FUNDS>
<FUNDS>
<SYMBOL>AHERX</SYMBOL>
<NAME>AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND</NAME>
</FUNDS>
.
.
.As you can see (hopefully) I am able to get the data I need but cannot get:
(1) the FUNDS tag(s) to be the very highest level/root.
nor (2) the SYMBOL part (tag label?) to be the actual variable stock fund.
Am I 'splaining this well enough? I don't necessarily need all the code, since I know I haven't given enough info to help with that, but my basic question is - - Is it possible to get a variable TAG based on the table DATA?
I want my SYMBOL tag to be the actual SYMBOL for the stock fund.
Confused? Not as much as I am *LOL* I am new to the use of all but XML EXPLICIT use, so any help would be appreciated - at least regarding my two formatting questions.
Yes, I have (and am still) searching around BOL for my answers, but so I have found nothing that helps me out. Meanwhile, suggestions are welcome!
I am trying to create an ssis package with dynamic csv file as output. and out format contains query output.
sample file name:
Unique identifier + query output + systemdate();
The expression is looking like this.
@[User::FilePath] + @[User::FileName] + ".CSV"
-- user filepath is a variable from ssis package. File name is the output from SQL query. using script task i have assigned the values to @[User::FileName] .
When I debugged the script task the value getting properly but same variable am using for Flafile destination. but its not working.
I have created SSRS report which has many overlapping objects, the output in PDF format seems to good but in word format it is not giving the required output.
I want to create a txt file from a table i have. I have the data in the correct formats but i want to include some padding around my selected four columns.
I am trying to format the result output from my query so that it looks like currency. Does anyone know how to do this? Here is my very simple select statement: SELECT Field_Value FROM tbl_all_results
I was thinking some kind of cast/convert would do the trick but I can't seem to get anything to work.
In my report I have used the "jump to url" for the report output but when I export this to excel I get a column with the correct data and also the url.
Is there anyway of exporting the data without the url?
I want my users to be able to view the report and click on the column the want to URL jump to but also be able to export just the raw data without the URL?
I have the following Query which gives the output in XML format. select * from <Table_Name> For XML auto I wanted to store this output in a .Xml file at my local machine. I would prefer to have a proc when called generates the xml and stores it on the local m/c. Any ideas ? Thanks,
I manually build my url for my reports. In the url I build, I can specify the output format I would like it to automatically use when the report opens. However, it always first opens the dialog box to either Save, Open, or Cancel. Is there anyway to bypass this and just open it in the format I have coded in the url? Thanks.
Has anyone had experience formatting an excel file (i.e. run a macro) after it is (created &) outputted from a DTS package?
Also an easier question: What is the best (easiest) way to create a unique filename in Excel with a datetimestamp in the file name (i.e. MyFile-20040608.xls)
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
Are there any good examples creating an asychronous output. I need to be able to output the values from the input as well as adding 7 new columns to each row.
I have the following code and the result set is coming out as nvarchar. So, when I create a report in SSRS, it is not formatting as a date.
, CASE WHEN isnull(cv2.Accepted,0)='True' AND cv2.Visit ='V2' AND cv2.StepNo='3' THEN 'Y' ELSE CONVERT(varchar,[dbo].[fn_Get_WorkingDays] (co.PlannedGoLiveDt, -10)) END AS 'System Verified'
A while back I wrote a .NET assembly with a COM wrapper to provide an interface between Report Services and legacy MS Access applications. Basically, it returns the byte arrays from the .render method (output format emf) to be written into an Access image control.
This worked flawlessly on any 8.5"x11" RS report we threw at it on the first two Report Services I tried it against. When we set up a third Report Service at another facility, the same reports were coming out with the physical dimension metrics on the emf as10"x13", so the Access version of the report is clipped significantly on the edges.
I trapped the output into a System.Drawing.Image object in the .NET assembly and put a watch on it. The two servers that work as I expected show HorizontalResolution and VerticalResolution as 96.0946, while the one that doesn't has these values as 81.2799. The PhysicalDimension property shows 21542.3672 x 27939.4316 on the working servers and 25531.25 x 33031.25 Otherwise, the properties of the images seem to be identical. The PhysicalDimension values I see are completely consistent with the size units of 0.01 mm, as the the emf documentation indicates. The resolution of 96 is consistent with the "Windows default" values of 96 dpi. The ratio of the resolutions is correct for an 85% scaling factor for the "misbehaving" Report Service.
I have not been able to find any reason for the differences between the Report Services, and I have not been able to figure out how to control it. I tried setting DpiX and DpiY as 96 in the DeviceInfo for the render call with no change in the behavior of either server.
Can anybody enlighten me on what is happening and what I need to do to get consistent behavior between the servers? Or why the DpiX and DpiY settings for the emf rendering extension don't seem to work?
This may be a basic question, but defining anything other than a cursoris preffered.I have, as an example, 2 tables. One with customer data (addresses,phones, etc), the other is a listing of all 50 states (a cross referencefor short state alias to long state name, i.e. FL - Florida, etc...).I want to sort the out put by state long name, and show each customer inthe state ... BUT ...the output needs to be like so:FloridaABC,Inc Address1 City, State Zip, other InfoDummy Corp Address1 City, State Zip, other Info...GeorgiaXYZ, Inc Address1 City, State Zip, other Info...etc ...This is a basic heirarchical listing. Can this be done with a singleT-SQL statement or are cursors needed?Thanks in advance."Excellence is achieved through 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration."

I have AdventureWorks installed. I am using SQL Server 2005.
I need to import some large tab delimited text files into SQL. From the research i did I thought that using BCO would be the best solution becausr I will have to import these files and export in the same format.
I am attempting to follow the example at: Creating a Format File
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191516.aspx B. Creating a non-XML format file for character data
In my command window at C: I enter: bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department format nul -c -f Department-c.fmt -T I was expecting to be prompted with questions about the source file and have a format file created. When i press enter nothing hallende. No errors. Nothing.
Can come one give a beginner the step by step on how to creat the format file and use it to import (and export would be nice too).
SQL Server 2000I need to compare 2 tables as follows:Table 1 - AccountsAcct#, Account NameTable 2 - Ledger(Among Others)Acct#,AccountNameI would like to create a view where the account number matches in both tables but the account name does not.I.e. Table 1:5000 MaintenanceTable 2:5000 Maintenance5000 Maintenance5000 Building Maintenancemy query view would display:5000 Building Maintenanceindicating there is a "Bad Record" and I would do some processing from there.FYI - I know I could prevent this easily, but I am actually comparing several databases with Table 2 data with a central Table 1 database.TIA-- Tim Morrison--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Vehicle Web Studio - The easiest way to create and maintain your vehicle related website.http://www.vehiclewebstudio.com
First, I can not change the data structure. I have a table called codesubsections that has an identity as the primary key. When a new codesubsection is entered the user can mark a formercodesubsection as a parent. The problem is that I need to be able to evaluate the table and identify the lowest CodeSubsectionID for a given row. so for instant when I look at row 7 it's text is 17 B p2 but because the CodeSubSectionID is not null I need to look at 6 then 5 and since 5 is null I need the text for 5,6,7 all to be 16:1 B. The only solution I have had any kind of luck with is to do a self join 3 times and coalesce the values up. See the code at the end. I am at my wits end, I had it working the other way assuming that the CodeSubSectionID was the parent of the record. This is the final piece of code on a project that is supposed to end tomorrow.
Any help is appreciated. I would normally post the procedures but I think that they are more confusing that the data explanation. This type of relationship is a first for me after 20 some years.
Hi all,Could someone give me an example on how to create and execute the store procedure with using output parameter?In normal, I create the store procedure without using output parameter, and I did it as follow:CREATE PROC NewEmployee (ID int(9), Name Varchar (30), hiredate DateTime, etc...)ASBEGIN //my codeENDGOWhen i executed it, I would said: Execute NewEmployee 123456789, 'peter mailler', getDate(), etc....For output parameter:CREATE PROC NewEmployee (ID int(9), Name Varchar (30), hiredate DateTime, @message Varchar(40) out)ASBEGIN insert into Employee ...... //if error encountered set @message = "Insertion failure"ENDGOExec NewEmployee 123456789, 'peter mailler', getDate(), do I need to input something for the output parameter here?Anyone could give me an example on how to handle the output parameter within the store procedure coz I am not sure how to handle it?Many thanks.
Being a rookie to stored procedures the following cry for help will be posted.
The stored procedure below is supposed to create a dynamic string as an output parameter
create procedure spGetFieldNameList @TableName varchar(256),@String varchar(8000) output As select @String = @String + sc.name + ',' from syscolumns as sc(nolock) join sysobjects as so(nolock) on sc.id = so.id and so.name = @TableName order by colid asc
Creating the stored procedure does not trigger an error.
Calling the stored procedure as: spGetFieldNameList 'OfferCondition'. Causes the following message: Server: Msg 201, Level 16, State 4, Procedure spGetFieldNameList, Line 0 Procedure 'spGetFieldNameList' expects parameter '@String', which was not supplied.
Calling it this way: declare @String as varchar(8000) set @String = '' set @String = spGetFieldNameList 'OfferCondition'.
Causes: Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 3 Line 3: Incorrect syntax near 'OfferCondition'.
I am working on a code that will convert the query output into a html query output. That is the output of the query will be along with html tags so that we can save it as a html file.
The stored procedure that i have used is downloaded from symantec website and is working fine. Below is the code of that stored procedure.
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] Script Date: 12/21/2011 09:04:30 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] ( @TABLENAME NVARCHAR(500), @OUTPUT NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT,
[Code] ....
The code works fine and i am able to get the output with html tags. The problem occurs when i insert stylesheet in the code. I tried to enforce styles using a stylesheet for the table returned in my sql code, so that it will look good. below is the stylesheet code that i inserted between <head> and </head> tags.
If I run the procedure without the style sheet code, it works fine. but when i run the procedure with style sheet code i am getting the below errors.
Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 98 Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '</table></body><'. Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 98 Incorrect syntax near '</table></body><'.
[Code] .....
I checked the code and i am not able to find what is the mistake. I tried changing the quotation mark but it didn't worked.
Howdy all. I havent used format files inside BCP in several years and am having trouble creating one now.

I've tried brackets ([])around the box/ instance name. I've tried using the FQDN. I tried the SA account instead of WINNT authentication. All ideas are appreciated.
