Feb 14, 2008


Hi All,

We're currently preparing for a project for a bank client of ours where we would be using SQL Server 2008's data mining capabilities.

In the context of the out-of-the-box algorithms of SQL08 does the algorithms Logistics, Clustering and Logistic Regression includes Dynamic Logistics, Dynamic Clustering and Dynamic Logistic Regression?

Static And Dynamic Tables

Sep 26, 2006

dear experts,

i heard in a session, that the tables which are modifying continuously are known as dynamic tables.and which are not are known as static tables.

my question is how to find the statics to judge static and dynamic tables?

What Is Better.. Static Or Dynamic Memory Allocation ?

Dec 26, 2007

I have gotten mixed comments on this topic. I have a 64 bit machine running 64 windows 2003 standard and 64 SQL 2005 standard with 8 GB of RAM. We want to upgrade it to 32 GB. What is the best approach to do this? Dynamic or Stattic giving min and max server memory a value ? and if static what value should I use for 32 GB knowing that this box is only being used for SQL.

Static/dynamic/embedded SQL Distinctions

Aug 22, 2005

I want to distinguish between static SQL, dynamic SQL, and embeddedSQL, but couldn't find too much useful resources in the web.For example, if we put SQL statements (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, etc...)inside an application (e.g. Java application, VB application, etc...),do we consider those SQL statements as static SQL? or embedded SQL?How about dynamic SQL? any practical examples?Please advise. thanks!!

Keeping Dynamic DateTime Variable Static

Apr 28, 2007

In one step of an SSIS package, i create an outgoing XLS filename based on the current datetime setting, a la:



"myFileName_" + (DT_WSTR,4)YEAR( getdate()) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)MONTH( getdate()),2)+
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DAY( getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("hh", getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("mi", getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("ss", getdate()),2) +".xls"



which provides the format as myFileName_yyyymmddhhmmss.xls.



This value is then assigned to a variable, user::myFilenameDateTime.



This variable is referred to in various steps which need the full pathname or filename.



I found, though, that in subsequent steps, the value for user::myFilenameDateTime is re-calculated whenever the variable is invoked.



So in one Task i created the physical output XLS file and named it "correctly", eg, myFileName_20070428090204.xls; in the next Task, i call a Stored Procedure in SQL Server 2005 to email the file with a corresponding message (that pulls in more data from the database).



The single Parameter to the Stored Procedure (that does the emailing) is the supposed/expected full Pathname of the outgoing file just produced but the parameter no longer represents the original filename -- and has changed slightly (a few seconds have been added) and the filename is now, myFileName_20070428090210.xls; consequently, my Email Distribution program cannot find the file with that specific name, although File = myFilename_20070428090204.xls does certainly exist.



so it appears that these variables are calculated realtime whenever encountered.



1) Am I misunderstanding something or misusing the variable assignment?

2) How can i keep << myFileName_yyyymmddhhmmss.xls >>, "static" throughout the duration of the overal SSIS Process.

3) I would think that even if I assign the derived myFileName value initially to ANOTHER "static" variable, this won't achieve anything because the new variable will be re-calculated again, as well, when it is invoked.



thx/spirits,



seth j hersh

Reporting Services Matrix Static And Dynamic Columns

Jun 15, 2007

Hi every one,



Could you please anyone tell me how to have static and dynamic columns in a matrix?

We can add static columns by right clicking detail text box and add column. But it will repeat for each column group. I need static columns in the dynamic columns level itself.



Thanks in advance!

Dynamic OLE DB Connection String With Static User ID And Password

Apr 30, 2008

I'm trying to setup a dynamic ole db connection using the SA user ID, it has to be dynamic because the server name will change and it has to be SA because we're pulling information from system databases that some users don't have access to.

If I setup a regular static connection using SA credentials it works like a charm of course. When I create an expression to use the User:erver variable it doesn't work, it throws an error message saying that "The login failed for user sa" among other things, I'm thiking that the sa's password is not being saved.

Where exactly do I place a password for dynamic connections using sql server users? On the connection string? On the password property of the source? Any ideas?

Question On Attributes Selection For Un-supervised Algorithms And Supervised Algorithms

Jul 19, 2007

Hi, all,

Thanks for your kind attention.

Just wonder is there any good idea for us to select attributes for training models? Both for non-supervised algorithms like Association Rules and Clustering etc. and supervised algorithms like decision tree etc.

It will be much interesting to hear from you for any best practices and popular methods of dealing with this issue.

I am looking forward to hearing from you and thanks for your advices.

With best regards,

Msg 6573 - Method In Assembly Is Not Static - How Do I Make It Static ?

Feb 22, 2006

I'm using Delphi 2006 to create a DLL which will be integrated into SQL 2005. It's been a long road and I've made a lot of headway, however I am currently having the following problem creating the stored procedure:

My dll name is 'Crystal_Reports_Test_01'
In the DLL, my class is named 'Class01'.
In the DLL, my procedure is named 'TestMe'

I've managed to integrate the DLL into SQL using the following statement:

CREATE ASSEMBLY TEST_ERIC_01
AUTHORIZATION dbo
FROM 'c:mssqlassembliescrystalreports.dll'
WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE

I am attempting to create the stored procedure which points to the 'TestMe' method inside of the DLL. FYI: 'CrystalReports' is the namespace above my class that I had to add in order to get it to locate the class. The following code is used to create the stored procedure:

create procedure dbo.Crystal_Reports_Test_01(
@Parm1 nvarchar(255)
)
as external name TEST_ERIC_01.[CrystalReports.Class01].TestMe

But I get the following error:

Msg 6573, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Crystal_Reports_Test_01, Line 1Method, property or field 'TestMe' of class 'CrystalReports.Class01' in assembly 'CrystalReports' is not static.

I'm not sure what this means exactly. I think it means the method (the procedure) is not using Static method binding but should be. I have no idea what this really means or how to accomplish this in the DLL - or if I'm even going about this in the right way.

Any help would be appreciated ! I'll post the Delphi code (DLL) below.

Thanks,

Eric Gooden

library CrystalReports;uses System.Reflection, System.Runtime.InteropServices;...................type Class01 = class public procedure TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export; end;procedure Class01.TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export;begin sVarString:= 'Lets change the value and see if the stored proc. gets the change.';end;end.

I have some data in Excel - sheet1 which would be static.

Now I need to import data from SQL Server (using a query) and Union above static data with this SQL data and later I will have to create PowerPivot table in Sheet2.

Which is suitable option for me to import data from SQL to excel as I see "From SQL Server" option under "Data" and "Power Query" tab as well.

Performance Of Encryption Algorithms

Aug 2, 2006

I am in the stage of design for an application that uses SQL server 2005. We intended to encrypt some sensitve data using the encryption features in SQL server 2005. we will use symmetric key encryption. The question here is which symmetric encryption algorithm has the best performance? how much does the key size affect the perfromance? the data to be encrypted will be some lines of text equal to a word document.
any ideas?

Simple Explanation Of Mining Algorithms

Jun 9, 2007

Hello Everyone,



I am reading DataMining Tutorial and right now I am at the Mining Algorithms section. I cannot understand any of the algorithms. For example take the following text... what a bunch of mouthful bla bla bla it is ....


"The Microsoft Decision Trees algorithm supports both classification and regression and it works well for predictive modeling. Using the algorithm, you can predict both discrete and continuous attributes.
In building a model, the algorithm examines how each input attribute in the dataset affects the result of the predicted attribute, and then it uses the input attributes with the strongest relationship to create a series of splits, called nodes. As new nodes are added to the model, a tree structure begins to form. The top node of the tree describes the breakdown of the predicted attribute over the overall population. Each additional node is created based on the distribution of states of the predicted attribute as compared to the input attributes. If an input attribute is seen to cause the predicted attribute to favor one state over another, a new node is added to the model. The model continues to grow until none of the remaining attributes create a split that provides an improved prediction over the existing node. The model seeks to find a combination of attributes and their states that creates a disproportionate distribution of states in the predicted attribute, therefore allowing you to predict the outcome of the predicted attribute"



In the above text what is meant by discrete and continious attributes? what is regression? what is predicted attributes? what are input attributes? what is distribution of states?



Is there a source which explains these algorighms in a easier way ....

Encryption Algorithms Used In SQL Compact Edition 3.5

Apr 3, 2008

Hi,

In the info for SQL Compact Edition 3.5 it states that one of the features is:

Support for newer and more secure encryption algorithms.

I can't seem to find details of exactly what these new, more secure algorithms are. It appears 3.1 used 128-bit RSA. Is this the same in 3.5, or has this changed?

Thanks

I am having a question about plug-in algorithms in SQL Server 2005. Since we are able to implement our own algorithms in SQL Server 2005 analysis services architecture, so my question is: what benefits can to a great extent be achieved? Like say, we are going to implement a plug-in algorithm, so what considerations should be concerned?

More Questions About Data Mining Plug-in Algorithms?

Jun 6, 2006

Hi, all here,

I am having a more considertaion about Data Mining plug-in algorithms. When we say we are going to embed a uesr plug-in algorithm, so what is the context for that ? I mean in which case then we thing we need to embed a user plug-in algortihm? I know when we say we are going to embed a user costomermized plug-in algorithm, it means we want something more costomized. But what kind of customized features are generally concerned? Is it independant for different market sectors?

I dont think we can just try to embed a plug-in algorithm then compete it with avaialble algorithms to see which one is with better prediction accuracy?

Would please someone here give me some guidances about that?

How To Return A Static Value?

Apr 25, 2007

I have the following stored procedure...
CREATE Procedure UserGetInfo2 (@UserID int, @SystemTimePeriodID int )As set nocount onSELECT     Users.UserId as UserID, Users.UserName as UserName, Users.RealName as RealName, UserTimePeriod.BudgetCode as BudgetCode, UserTimePeriod.SystemTimePeriodID as SystemTimePeriodID, Users.Password as Password, Users.SSN as SSN, Users.Location as Location, Users.ScheduleType as ScheduleType, Users.EmployeeType as EmployeeType, Users.TimeAccounted as TimeAccountedFROM      Users INNER JOIN UserTimePeriod ON Users.UserId = UserTimePeriod.UserIDWHERE     (users.userID= @UserID) AND (UserTimePeriod.SystemTimePeriodID = @SystemTimePeriodID)returnGO
The problem lies in that when a person has a SystemTimePeriodID over a certain value, there is no UserTimePeriod record since it has not been created yet.
Obviously, I need to wrap this in an IF...EXISTS
IF EXISTS (SELECT UserTimePeriodID FROM UserTimePeriod WHERE (SystemTimePeriodID = @SystemTimePeriodID) AND (UserID = @UserID)) 
(the SELECT above, since that's what needs to come back if the data exists) 
ELSE
Do the same select but put in a static value for BudgetCode, like '0000' 
GO
How could I do the part where the IF...EXISTS fails?
I'm... not sure I can use RETURNS, since it feeds into this recordset:
rstUserInfo2.Open "UserGetInfo2 " & Request("UserID") & ", " & Request("SYSTIMEPERIODID") 
and later uses values from that RecordSet, such as <td><%=rstUserInfo("BudgetCode") & ""%></td>

Now, I am using this query for reporting purposes and would like to inject some additional sql that will append one additional row to my result set -- this is what I am calling the 'static' row in the thread title.

In other words, without modifying my database I would like to return the above set of data but with one additional row that has an arbitrary ID with the name "Unknown" or something similar.

again, I want to avoid adding an "Unknown" field directly to my database -- is their any way to "hard code" the selection of this row in my sequal?

Thanks,

Zoop

Virtual To Static Table

May 26, 2004

:confused: Please forgive this elementary question. I have database which has a view that produces the desired records and fields from multiple tables. As I understand it a view is a Virtual Table. My problem is I need to export these results periodically to deliver to a customer. I am running this database on SQL Server 2000 if I right click on a table I have the option to dts the data to a text file but when I right click on the view I do not have this option. How can I make this virtual table an actual table. PLEASE Help Thank You, Ed

Declare Un-static Decimal Value

Oct 12, 2007

I try to declare a variable with un static decimal point in the following statement:-

declare @mpt int;
declare @mpq nvarchar (1)
SELECT @mpq = (SELECT mpq FROM ims.parm)

exec('declare @MM1 decimal (10,'+ @mpq +');')

set @mm1 = 1
print @mpt
when i print the declare statement looks like the following:
declare @MM1 decimal (10,2);
but with exec the statement, I have the following error:-
Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 18
Must declare the scalar variable "@mm1".

Best regards
