Trying to figure out the best method of reading in a number of flat files, all with different number of columns and data types and outputting them to a database.
Here's the problem: They are EBCDIC encoded and some of the columns are packed decimal. I've set up one package that takes the flat file, unpacks the decimal (Using UnpackDecimal component) and then sending the rest through a second component to go from EBCDIC -> ASCII.
What I need is a way to do this for every flat file based on the schema for that flat file. One current solution is to write a script/app to create the .dtsx XML file and then execute that for each flat file. It appears like this may be possible, but I haven't gotten far enough to know for sure. So my questions are this:
1) Is there an easier way to do this (ie somehow feed the schema to the package and use it to dynamically set up the column makers and determine which columns get fed to the unpack decimal component.
2) If there isn't a better way, will dynamically creating the .dtsx XML file based on the necessary input/output columns for each flat file work? If so, what is a good source of information on this (information about how the .dtsx XML file is set up, what needs to be changed/what doesn't, etc).
Thanks,

hello
how can i select all dates upto todays date and include the first next future date in a given data base
say todays date was the 01/06/2006 (MM,DD,YYYY)
below is a mock data base
id date (MM,DD,YYYY)
1 01/02/2006
2 01/04/2006
3 01/06/2006
4 01/09/2006
5 01/20/2006
i want to select all dates equal or less that 01/06/2006 and include the first next future date .. and in this case it would be 01/09/2006
so the results would return
1 01/02/2006
2 01/04/2006
3 01/06/2006
4 01/09/2006
I need to do the following and am hoping someone can help me out.
I have C#(asp.net app) that will call a stored procedure. The C# will pass in a date to thestored procedure. The date is in the format YY/MM/DD. Once inside of the stored procedure, the datepassed into the stored proc needs to be compared to todays date. Todays date must be determined inthe SQL.
So basically here is my pseudo code for what I am trying to accomplish. Basically I just am afterthe comparison of the two values:
If @BeginDate < TodaysDate
The difficult part is how to obtain the value for "TodaysDate"
Taking into consideration that "TodaysDate" should probably be in the format of YY/MM/DD considering that is how the date it is to be compared with is being passed in.
Can someone please code this out for me in Microsoft SQL. I would be forever grateful.
At the moment i have a query that is dependent on a date which is 42 days before whatever the date may be today.
The statement in my query I have to use is:
MailDate <= '2008-01-05'
I am wondering if i could make that statement automatically take off 42 days from todays date?
Hi im new to SQL. Ive looked through your forums but most answers seem to complicated.
I'm trying to get todays date for a SELECT statement.
My code is:
List all the records bought today.
SELECT recordNo, recordName
FROM Record r, Properties p
WHERE r.recordNo = p.recordNo AND purchaseDate = '20/08/07';
I'm certain writing '20/08/07' is not right and it should be something like: getDate.
Can anyone help? thankyou

Hello all
I have a simple DataSource control setup to a basic database that includes a datetime column, I want to retrieve records from today and beyond.
How do incorporate this into the Where clause?
Im getting stuck with the syntax too so a specific example would be most helpfull.This is the DataSource
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ResultsSqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT client, date FROM clients WHERE (client = @client) Order by date asc "><SelectParameters><asp:controlparameter ControlID="TextBox1" Name="client" PropertyName="Text" /></SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
If this requires code can you give C#
Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm wanting a SQL Formula to insert into my Accounting Systems which uses a SQL Database which, when I add a new product code I want a custom field to update with today's date.
I've tried to use GetDate () however, what this does is to update all records with this date (each record has this custom field assign to it). I only want the new record to show todays date so I know when the product was created in the database. Should I be looking at creating this with a Function?
Hi, I have just started using SQL server 2005 reporting. But I am stuck on my select part of the report. I want to bring back all results from a table for todays date (whatever that would be). I have tried:

Can anybody please help?
Also is there a good site / tutorial which helps with SQL syntax, statements, etc.

I would like to display Car records to retrieve last Maintenance request for all customer who did not make request in past 9 months from current date.

Hi,
Does anyone have a workaround or know of a fix to this problem:
Default value set to 'date pick' from date currently within field by setting value equal to that field . ie if date is 01/01/2010 date picker opens in Jan 2010 - works ok.
However, once published to Sharepoint and run through browser the Date Picker ignores the default value and the date picker opens for today. ie April 2008.
Any words of wisdom gratefully recieved,
Howard Stiles
Sometimes I want to quickly to edit a record in a table instead of using an insert statement.
Sometimes there are auditing columns like DateCreated, and CreatedBy,
I know it can be made as default. for DateCreated to be sysdatetime, and createdby to be system user.
But I just curious to know if there is a way to manually enter today's date and the user in the cell?
I'm trying to create a trace file with the file as part of it's name.For example, I'd like to create a file called FailedLogins-20050428. Sofar I haven't been able to figure out how to get the name of the fileand the date together (I'm sill very new to SQL Server and tracing).What I've done is:declare @rc intdeclare @traceid intdeclare @maxfilesize bigintset @maxfilesize = 50exec @rc=sp_trace_create @traceid=@traceid output, @options=0,@tracefile=N'C: racefailedlogins', @maxfilesize=@maxfilesize,@stoptime=NULLif @rc > 0 print 'sp_trace_code failed with error code ' +rtrim(cast(@rc as char))else print 'traceid for the trace is ' + rtrim(cast(@traceid as char))I can create a trace file on C drive without difficulty. I've triedcreating a file like this:exec @rc=sp_trace_create @traceid=@traceid output, @options=0,@tracefile=N'C: racefailedlogins + convert (varchar,getdate(),112',@maxfilesize=@maxfilesize, @stoptime=NULLBut what I end up created is a file on C calledfailedlogins + convert(varchar,getdate(),112).trcI have no doubt what I want to do can be done. I just done know how todo it.If anyone could tell me where I'm going wrong, I'd really appreciateit.Thanks in advance.

Hi - hope someone can help. We're creating a ASP.NET C# site that allows a user to connect to any of our 100+ SQL Servers and query a database that sits on every server. I'm trying to work out (and failing) how we can set the 'Data Source' in a connection string dynamically using the server name selected by the user in a drop down box. Any help appreciated, thanks in advance,

I'm investigating whether if its possible to Dynamically create a cube. Then Process this cube before exporting it to a .cub file.
I know that DTS in sqlserver is able to process a cube given at a scheduled time interval. But I'm not sure how I can export a cube to a offline .cub file dynamically. The only way that i know to create a .cub file is via PivotTable in Excel.
Any help in pointing me to the right direction is appreciated.
Thankyou :)

Greetings all,
I want to be able to generate a table on the fly. I know I can use dynamic sql to do this but my brains have forzen this afternoon so any help would be much appreciated.
I have the first query that returns one column with three rows. The contents of the these three rows will form the new columns in the dynamically generated table. How can I do this?
Thanks.
Hi everybody,
I have a problem. When I try to create a database with this code:
strConnection = "server=(local);Integrated Security=SSPI"
objConnection = New SqlConnection(strConnection)
objConnection.Open()
Dim strSQL = "CREATE DATABASE xxxxxx ON PRIMARY"
strSQL += "(Name=test_data, filename = 'xxxxx.mdf', size=3,"
strSQL += "maxsize=5, filegrowth=10%)log on"
strSQL += "(name=mydbb_log, filename='xxxxx.ldf',size=3,"
strSQL += "maxsize=20,filegrowth=1)"
objCommand = New SqlCommand(strSQL, objConnection)
objCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
it usually works, except when the name of the database (xxxxxx) contains a number in the beginning of the name or if it is all made up completely by numbers. I also converted the database name into a string, but it doesn't work either.
What is the problem?
How can I solve it?
Thanks in advance
I was given what at first seemed a simple task (and maybe it is, but with everything else on my plate, I can't seem to get my head wrapped around this)...create a grid or table something similar to below:
Plan A Plan B PlanC PlanD
Item1 yes yes no no
Item2 yes yes no no
Item3 yes no yes no
etc.....
The "plans" are stored in one db table, the "items" in another. What I can't seem to get straight in my mind is how to relate the yess and nos and then generate a tabular layout similar to the above.
I don't need anyone to do it for me, but a push in the right direction would sure be nice (using SQL 2005) Thanks!
Folks,
Is there any way I can dynamically alter the structure of a table? In other words if my Transact SQL
statement returns 5 rows I want to alter an existing table and put in 5 columns. Strange?!
Something like
alter table add
column+@i
The alter table statement is within a Cursor and ideally @i should increment each time and alter
the table to put in a new column.
If I went 3 times thru the loop, I should have
column1
column2
column3
added to the new table.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much in advance.
Has anyone found out how to dynamically create report width.
If I have 20 columns on a report all of 2cm, then report will be 40cm width.
If I display the columns based on specific criteria using the iif function and then setting the an expression for the Visibility Hidden property, the report could potentially reduce in width.
I cannot see how to build an expression for the report width or table width, to accommodate the potential change in the width of the report when columns are not shown, thus it pages incorrectly, leaving huge white space on the right of the report when columns are hidden... has anyone come across this requirement, and hopefully a solution for it?
Many Thanks people
