Dynamic Images From File Structure
Oct 30, 2007
I would like to build a customer badge with photo (jpg), address and barcode.
The issue I am having is that accounting application being used (MS SBF 9) does not store images in the database, but rather stores them on the file system.
So, is there a way to dynamically point to a different / unique jpg on the network? or, even an internal website?
Ideally, the images would be stored in the database and I am looking into this as well.

Hi all,
I am currently working on some reports where I need to display images dynamically.
there is one total field whose value ranges between 0 and 100 %. amd I need to display different images depending on the range of the value.
for example,
if the range is between
80% - 100% smily face.
60% - 80% normal face
40% - 60% sad face.
Can any one help in approaching this.
Initially I worked with only static embeded images.
It also helps me in solving another problem.
I need to change the company logo (header image) as per the company in the common report template provided by the provider dynamically.
Thanks in advance.
waiting for an early help as it is very urgent for me.
Regards,
Ramesh P

Hi all,
Thanks for sharing your experiences here. In some cases, I've saved quite a bit of time. Unfortunately, I haven't found a solution for my current issue.
I'm using VS.NET 2005 and SQL Server 2005. My development computer is running Windows XP SP2. SQL Server 2005 database and reporting services are running on Windows 2003 Server.
My business requirement is to develop and deploy a report which takes rich text (RTF) stored in the database (datatype = TEXT) and converts it to an image at runtime using a custom assembly (source can be found here http://blogs.digineer.com/blogs/jasons/archive/2006/10/03/520.aspx). I am able to generate and view the dynamic image containing the RTF on my local (i.e., developer) computer both using the ReportManager web interface and using the Render method. When I deploy this to our test server, I end up with a broken link image.
To recap, I have taken the following steps.
Created custom assembly using VS.NET 2005 which converts RTF to bitmap image. Custom assembly has a strong name.
On local developer machine
Copied custom assembly to C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies.
Modified C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesRSReportDesigner.config to include a CodeGroup which grants FullTrust to custom assembly based on StrongNameMembership (NOTE: ReadMe.txt doesn't mention adding an entry to this file).
Modified C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesRSPreviewPolicy.config to include a CodeGroup which grants FullTrust to custom assembly based on StrongNameMembership (NOTE: ReadMe.txt doesn't mention adding an entry to this file).
Modified report using VS.NET 2005 as follows
Added reference to custom assembly and System.Drawing.
Added image control with type=Database, MimeType=image/bmp, Value = call to custom assembly method; method is passed value of database field which contains RTF.
Deployed report.
Viewed report successfully both via HTML and via Render method of WebService using EXCEL as output format. HTML for image <IMG SRC="/Reports/Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd?ReportSession=ohj0pjaplbl5h255phlplz45&ControlID=883e299f22ca4413b398a024cec134b2&Culture=2055&UICulture=7&ReportStack=1&OpType=ReportImage&StreamID=ed4b4d3b-d54d-4043-9fea-1c06f153f9a1"/>
On local developer machine and server
Copied custom assembly to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerin
Modified C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServer
ssrvpolicy.config to include a CodeGroup which grants FullTrust to custom assembly based on StrongNameMembership (NOTE: source code indicates permissions should be granted based on UrlMembership).
Deployed report.
Viewed report unsuccessfully both via HTML and via Render method of WebService using EXCEL as output format. HTML for image <IMG SRC="" />
Initially, I got error messages when exporting to Excel along the lines of ,"data is missing" but these appear to have been resolved by granting permissions in .config files which we not mentioned in ReadMe.txt. I've have run out of things to try and am at my wits end. I am convinced the solution has something to do with permissions since this works on my computer but not on the server.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions.
Regards,
Bill

When you attach an MDF that was created using SQL 7.0 to SQL Server 2000, the MDF file structure gets updated. The resulting MDF can no longer be used by SQL 7.0.
My Question: does anyone know how to read the file structure version of a detached MDF file?
If the file structure is 7.0, I would like to warn the user and allow her to cancel the attach + conversion to SQL 2000.
Thanks!

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.

I am looking for some microsoft recommendation on storing images in SQL Server Vs File System. Here is what our requirement is.
Currently we are using SQL Server 2000 with a VB6(COM+) & ASP front end. Our architecture involves Log Shipping & Replication. We use log shipping for our DR site and Replication to replicate to Datawarehouse & DB2 enviornment. I have been trying to research this topic and have come up with opinion favoring both sides mostly file system but nobody seems to point any Microsoft recommendation.
With our application we are looking for Transactions, backups, Log shipping & replication with these images. I have read MS implementation of TerraServer and there they recommend storing them in SQL Server if above is required. (https://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/reskit/part3/c1161.mspx?mfr=true)
Can somebody please point me to some Microsoft recommendation and what does SQL Server 2005 offers in this aspect.
Thanks

We have the following scenario: We receive CSV files every month for which SSIS packages were built to process the data. The following problems occur from time to time:
1. The structure of the CSV file changed (e.g. column added or removed)
2. There were no footers in the data, but now footers started to appear
3. Date format changed (e.g. used to be mm/dd/yyyy, but became mm.dd.yyyy)
4. Number format changed (e.g. from 2000 to 2,000)
Currently we have person who manually opens each file, and using our "validation document" validates to ensure none of these or similar problems occur. We would like to move away from this manual process if possible. I understand that items 3. and 4. could be caught by loading data into a staging table with VARCHAR data types, and performing validation before moving it any further.
Item 2 is a bit questionable (meaning depending on the footer size SSIS load could fail or not).
Item 1, however, is a sure fail of the SSIS package that directly loads the data into a table.
Thus I feel the two possible options are:
1. Create a custom script that will run through the file, row by row, apply all the necessary validations and report an error or continue if all checks out
2. Use some 3rd party tool to validate the files (semi-manually) before kicking off the SSIS processing.

Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
@[User::Output_Path] + "Comms_File"+ @[User:: FileNumber] +"_" + replace((DT_WSTR, 10) (DT_DBDATE) GETDATE(),"-","")+ ".txt"
All this successfully creates these 4 files:
Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt, Comms_File_3_20150724.txt, Comms_File_4_20150724.txt
Now the QUESTION is how do I get these filenames as I need to insert them into a DB Audittable. The audit table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MMMAudit
(
AuditID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
PackageName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
FileName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
LoadTime DATETIME NULL,
NumberofRecords INT NULL
)
To save the Filename & how many records in each file in our Audit Table, am using an Execute SQL Task and configuring it as this:
Execute SQL Task
Parameter mapping - Mapped the User Variable (RecordsInserted) and System Variable( PackageName) to Insert statement as shown below
SQLStatement: INSERT INTO [dbo].[MMMAudit] (
PackageName,NumerofRecords,LoadTime)
(?,?.GETDATE)
Again this all works terrific & populates the dbo.MMMAudit table as shown below BUT I also need to insert the respsctive file name – How do I do that?
AuditID PackageName FileName NumberOfRecords
1 MMM NULL 12
2 MMM NULL 23
3 MMM NULL 14
4 MMM NULL 1

I am having an issue with the File System Task.
I was wondering if there is a way to 'Move File' with the File System Task inside of a For Each Loop container but to dynamically set the Destination path variable.
Currently, this is what I have:
FileDestinationPath variable - set to C:TestFiles
FileSourcePath variable - set to C:TestFiles
FileNameAndLocation variable - set to blank
For Each Loop Container Iterates through a folder C:TestFiles that has .txt files in it with dates in the file name. Ex: Test_09142006.txt. Sets the file path (fully qualified) to the Variable Mapping FileNameAndLocation.
Script Task (within For Each Loop, first step) Sets the FileDestinationPath to the correct dated folder within C:TestFiles. For example, if the text files I want to move are for the 14th of September, it takes FileDestinationPath and appends the date folder to the end of it. The text files have a date in the file name (test_09142006.txt) and I am picking this apart (from FileNameAndLocation in the For Each Loop) to get the folder date. (dts.Variables(User::FileDestinationPath?).Value = dts.Variables(User::FileDestinationPath?).Value & ? Month & _? & Day & _? & Year & ?) which gives me C:TestFiles 9_14_2006?.
File System Task (within For Each Loop, second step) This is where the action is supposed to occur. I want it to take the FileDestinationPath and move the FileNameAndLocation file (from the For Loop) into this folder for each run.
Now as for my problem. I want this package to run everyday but it has to set the FileDestinationPath variable dynamically according to that days date. Basically, how do I get this to work since I cant hard code the destination path variable from the start? I have the DestinationVariable on the File System Task set to the FileDestinationPath variable, after the script task builds it. However, using FileNameAndLocation as the SourceVariable on my File System Task tells me that the Variable FileNameAndLocation? is used as a source or destination and is empty.?
Let me know if I need to clarify further...I may be missing something very simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi All,
I have a source files folder where the files generated everyday.
My goal is pick the latest file and copy this single file to another folder.
I used the Foreach loop container and got the latest file and stored the file name to a varible i.e. LatestFile
Then i want to use the File System Task to copy this to the destination.
On the beginning, I could not setup the Latestfile since I don't its name then, so when I setup the Source Connection property of the File system task, it is not allowed to leave the SourceVarible as blank!
Any suggestion?
Thanks

Hi,
we have one requirement to run the package daily basis.
The package should run at specific time on that day.
we are using windows schedular for that.
we will have one new flatfile everyday.
Is there any process to attach this file to flat file source dynamically?
The requirement is,
The flat file should be able to read the new flatfile everyday.
we have no option change it manually, the flatfile source should have to take the file automatically at that time.
So that it can take that flatfile and load it into database table.

I have a stored procedures that will import 28 CSV files with different columns layout for each one, into their own table in SQL Server 2008 and a master stored procedure which will execute the other 28 store procedures.
All the CSV files are stored on the network drive in one folder.The naming of these files will vary from week to week and I don't want to manually change the names in the stored procedures. Each table name has a unique Identifier F1 to F28 that will be a constant before the rest of the name for example ...
F1_country23
F2_region12
Can I use the unique Identifier to add an wildcard or variable to the stored proc so it will pick any file in the folder for example with "F1" or "F2" meaning format layout 1 or 2 and use the correct stored procedure like below?
WHEN 'F1' THEN 'usp_F1_ImportScript'
WHEN 'F2' THEN 'usp_F2_ImportScript'
Example SQL scripts so far ...
Code:
Create PROC [dbo].[usp_F1_ImportScript]
-- Check if template table already exists and if it does then delete the table
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[CSVTest]') AND type in (N'U'))
DROP TABLE dbo.CSVTest
-- Create a new template table
[Code] ....
the SP which will run the 28 SP
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_FilePicker] (@FileName VARCHAR(255))
AS
--check if @FileName is null
IF @FileName IS NULL
BEGIN
SELECT 'No Files Match' AS ERROR
[Code] .....
I cannot use SSIS because other users from different countries (50+ so far) may need to add/delete columns in the raw text/cvs files (for their own test environment) meaning there may be changes needed to made to the SQL scripts and with documentation any user without experience with MSSQL would be able to make simple changes.

hi
I am encountering the same problem above and I did exacly as described . But it is not working.
I must send emails every month with dynamically named files as attachments.
The files are named according to the date on which they are generated.
For example on the first of November 2007, the file will be named myfile_1_11_2007.
I have created a variable called DynamicFileName with package scope, data type string and default value: d:\tests\
In "Send Mail Task Editor" Dialog Box, I have specified the following:
smtpConnection: smtptest.server.com
From :nemo@smtptest.server.com
To: nemo@smtptest.server.com
Subject: Dynamic File Email
MessageSourceType: Variable
MessageSource: blank
Priority: blank
Attachments: blank
In Expressions, I have specified:
FileAttachments: @[User:ynamicFileName] + "myfile_" + (DT_STR, 4, 1252) DAY( GETDATE() ) + "_" + (DT_STR, 4, 1252) MONTH( GETDATE() ) + "_" + (DT_STR, 4, 1252) YEAR ( GETDATE() ) + ".csv"
When I execute the package, I get the following errors:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Error at Send Mail Task [Send Mail Task]: Either the file "d:\tests\myfile_1_7_2007.csv" does not exist or you do not have permissions to access the file.
Error at Send Mail Task: There were errors during task validation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, the file does not exist. It will exist at tun-time. How can I tell the Send Mail Task to use a filename that is dynamic ?
By the way, once I have specified the code for FileAttachments, on trying to edit the Send Mail Task Properties, I can see that the Atachments field has been set to "d: estsmyfile_1_7_2007.csv by itself: I never typed it there !! It seems that the task executes the code even before it is run. If I remove the attachment path manually, on running the dts, I get an error saying that "either the file does not exist or you do not have permission to access the file.
I would be most grateful if anyone could be of help
thanks

Hello,
I have a requirement to create a reusable process that will be able to read a file and insert it into a table. The complication comes from the fact that the process will not just need to handle one file format, but files that will come in up to 20 different formats. (Some will be fixed width, some will be comma delimited, column names will be different.)
Since these formats may potentially change, such as a new column being added, the process needs to be dynamic enough to handle this without changing the package itself. While this task is somewhat daunting, I was hoping that SSIS might be able to handle it.
One thought that I had was to somehow have dynamic file connection, with the information about the file coming from a table. (I.e. The table would store values to specify the column name for a file type, the delimiter used, etc.) However, I don't know if this is something that SSIS is equipped to handle.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Attila

Does anyone know if this is possible:
I have an FTP server that will be receiving files. The directory
and file structure will be a folder with a client name (can be called
anything) and it will have files in it (these files will have the same
filenames as all the other directories. So I will have folder
JimmyDoe with files a.txt, b.txt, c.txt and I will have JonnyDue with
files a.txt, b.txt, and c.txt.
Now I'm trying to figure out a way to get that dynamic file location to
a DTS package so I can import all the data from the text file into a
SQL server. The way the SQL server will be set up is that each
Folder from the FTP site will be a separate Database and each file will
1:1 with a table with the same name..
My biggest issue is figuring out a way to tell the DTS package the file
location to pull all those files and then importing them to the proper
database.
I'm not limiting the solution to DTS packages so if .NET can be
incorporated to make it easier then so be it. But keep in mind I
can have up to 200 folders with 12 - 20 text files ranging from
hundreds of rows of data to many thousands of rows. And the
package needs to be ran twice a day so time/performance is an
issue.
To recap: Need DTS package that uses Dynamic file source and transfers data to Dynamic database destination.
(And I'll write slow VB.NET code to handle this before I create/manage 200+ DTS packages as a solution)
Any help at all is greatly appreciated.

SQL Server 2K
OK, I'm probably being a bone-head here and am clearly in over my head but how do you (or can you?) set up a Bulk Insert to take a dynamic path/file name?
What I want to do is pass in the path and file name from an external process to a stored procedure that bulk inserts the content of the file and then does some other routines on it. I haven't had any luck getting Bulk Insert to run if the path/file name is not hard-coded in the sproc as a string.
The point is to have a master routine that can exercise the process for several different customers and use meta data in a table to inform what file to bulk insert.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I have a file that is automatically generated by an external process that will always have the same name + a date stamp.I will say test_(Datestamp).txt
what i am trying to do is use sql to bulk insert this file but i will not know the full file name as the date stamp is also includes time. What my script is doing is taking this file everyday storing its contents temporarily in a table where i then use a trigger to edit and repopulate the table and kick out a new file that another external process uses.
