Exporting To Muliple File From A Single Table Using DTS
Aug 15, 2003
Hi Friends
I have been trying to solve this problem for the last 2 days but no luck.
Here is the problem that I am facing.
The task on had is to transfer data from a single table (the source) to multiple files (Destination) based on the record type.
I have tried changing the Datasource property of the Text File Connection object dynamically by using an ActiveX Script. But the data is still being written only to one file.
Can anyone please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Srinivas.

I need to export data from multiple tables into one single file. The big problem here is that the tables will have different column types.
I am attempting to create something that allows users to be able to send me the contents of their tables's, through either email or ftp. I would prefer to make it easier for them so they only have to deal with one file, instead of the multiple files that bcp and dts create when exporting from multiple tables.
I was thinking of using DTS or BCP and then join (append) the files (either zip them or append the files together in some fashion), but I was hoping that there was an easier method out there.
Any ideas on how I may accomplish this would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Let me frist start saying that I am no SQL DB guru or have any great knowledge. I am sure this questions is the most basic question posted here. I would like to know how to export a single table from an SQL 2005 DB. I need to export this table from one SQL server to another. Just one table and its contents. Also, I woud like this exported table to be saved as a *.dat file?
Thanks in advanced.

I'm trying to write an SSIS package that exports a table that has changing column names to an excel file. The column names change due to the fact that the table is created by a pivot daily. the only thing I'm missing is the ability to dynamically map the tables' columns to the excel destination. Is this possible?
I read in another thread that
"It is not possible to create packages or new objects within packages using SSIS."
I also read in the books online that "The input and the input columns of the Excel destination have no custom
properties." To me this means that I cannot programmatically create or remove columns in the excel destination. Please tell me I'm wrong.
So, to summarize my research so far. In writing an SSIS package, I cannot programmatically create a new excel destination object and I can't manipulate an existing one. I hope I'm wrong. Can anyone help me? (and please correct any wrong assumptions I may have stated)

Is it generally or almost always better to have multiplesmall SPs and functions to return a result set instead ofusing a single big 1000+ lines SP?I have one SP for example that is 1000+ lines and earlyanalysis of the SP I see it first has 3 big blocks of codeseparated by IF statements. Then within each IF blockof code I see 3-4 UNIONs. UNIONs that meansthey are all returning the same columns so I amguessing these are prime candidates for becomingindividual functions or SPs, maybe even dynamic SPs.Obviously I am not showing you the code but am Iright to think this way? This same SP has about 15 JOINsincluding some LEFT JOINs and one LEFT JOIN to a (SELECTstatement) and almost all the tables referenced by theseJOINs have thousands of records, very possibly hundreds ofthousands.The SELECT statement is returning 30-40 columns froma lot of the these tables plus I also see a lot of CASE ELSEstatements within the main SELECT statement. The code ofeach CASE statement is calling a function. As an exampleif the CASE is for EmployeeID then a function is being calledto get the EmployeeID's FirstName and LastName. If the CASEis for CustomerID then another function is being called to getthe Customer Name.I am thinking to cut this big SP to many smaller SPs and/or functionsand I also plan on using table variable(s) to hold temporary resultwhile I continue processing the records from the table variablewith other code logic.Also I want to leave as the last thing to do is to convert the"machine result", i.e. EmployeeID or CustomerID to "humanreadable result", i.e. Employee FirstName and LastName,Customer Name.I am trying to test this on the Northwind's Employees table,but the Statistics IO, Time and the Execution Plan aresomething I've only started to use. I am unable to makeconclusion which method is better. I'll work on posting anotherpost specifically with details to this test that I am currently doing.My opinion is that by having 1 single SP with 15+ join causea lot more locking than if I would run smaller SPs and store theresult into temp table variables and continue processing theremaining code logic.I would like to know what you think and if I am right or wrongon how I want to optimize this SP?Thank you

If when then isnt possible, any other suggestions are welcomed. Thanks

FROM #Sec INNER JOIN
Pos ON #Sec.ID = Pos.ID
WHERE (Pos.PID = 'B')
UPDATE #Sec
SET G2005 = Pos.USD / 1000
FROM #Sec INNER JOIN
Pos ON #Sec.ID = Pos.ID
WHERE (Pos.PID = 'G')
UPDATE #Sec
WHEN (Pos.PID = 'C') THEN SET C2005 = Pos.USD / 1000 end
WHEN (Pos.PID = 'G') THEN SET G2005 = Pos.USD / 1000 end
WHEN (Pos.PID = 'E') THEN SET E2005 = Pos.USD / 1000 end
FROM #Sec INNER JOIN
Pos ON #Sec.ID = Pos.ID

Hi guys
I am trying to create a package in BIDS that reads data from a table and exports it into a flat file (.csv).
The file needs to have a row for the header and a row representing the column names as well as the data rows.
My problem is:
1.I need to add a value in the header row that is a count of all the data rows.
2. I need to add the year and period based on the year and period in the data rows. (the year and period will always be the same in the data rows)
below is an example of what I want the file to look like (it is a delimited file)
1;Varese;O027200702ACT;F1_V4;BATCH;2326;test company
CUSTOMER_ID;BU_ID;YEAR_ID;PERIOD_ID;ACTIVITY_ID;SCENARIO_ID;ACCOUNT_ID;DATA_UNIT_ID;DATA_VALUE
000001;ZA01000001;2007;2;01;1;70;ZAR;.04
000001;ZA01000001;2007;2;01;1;912;ZAR;6080374
000001;ZA01000001;2007;2;01;1;941;ZAR;-.16
The value in bold represent the values that i want dynamically updated...
200702 represents a concatenation of the year and period
2326 represents the number of data rows
Thanks a mill!
Mike

Hi,
I have a report returning about 50000 rows, when i export this into excel it takes a few minutes and the file size is about 13MB, When i try to open up a 13mb file it is so slow...it is better for me to execute the dataset in SQL analyser and copy the results directly into excel whereby the file is 8mb and opens up also instantly...
My exported version is just data and no graphics however the page appears to be ''white'' although i set the fill in excel to transparent...maybe this is making the file hard to open...
Anybody have problems with exporting to excel and actually able to use it without running into long delays due to the file size...what can i do to fix this
thanks

Hi,
I have 2 very similar copies of a report. The only difference between them is that they point to different datasources. The report is fairly simple and contains a table with a group header and a detail row. Report A exports fine, however Report B does not export the values of the header row. I've tried a variety of output options to try to get the value in the export file, but all I get is textbox1, textbox2, etc. Does anyone have any ideas on what else I can check? This one report is the only one that is giving me trouble! Thanks in advance!!
Thanks,
JD

SQL 6.5
NT 4.3
Can someone assist me with the following....
1. I am attempting to export data from a SQL DB (single table using a query) to a "flat file".
2. I would then like to take this "flat file" and import the data into a different SQL DB (same schema structure as first DB).
Unfortunately this has to be done in two steps.
Thank you for your help.

I have a request from a vendor to export data out of my SQL Server 2K database view to a 'flat fixed file'.
What kind of file is this exactly, not a .csv ? Does EM have the capabilities through the DTS wizard, by choosing the output to a text file and fixed width ?
Thank you

I am trying to find a convenient way to export parts of tables to text
files.
One way I see is BCP: Is there a way to avoid writing the command and
options into the command prompt by hand? I.e. a way to write the
commands into a text file and then to execute them?
Are there other ways? I`d like to find a way that a user who uses a web
interface can use.
Is there a way to send the text files via mail to a remote user?

I have a record set I have to export on a weekly basis into a CSV file for a customer/client. One of the fields being included in the export is a TEXT field. When I export this field, the CSV file is truncating the record significantly.
Is there a way I can get the export to pass all the data in the TEXT field, or is this a limitation on the data transformation, or is it a limitation on the CSV file (because of the size/nature of the TEXT field).

Reading through the forums, I found some great imformation for importing/exporting an excel spreadsheet via a stored procedure, however, the amount of data I have won't fit in excel. Can someone help me export a CSV file via a stored procedure? I don't know if XML is the answer or if there is another way. I am able to use Bulk for an insert of a csv via stored procudure, although it doesn't allow me to use a variable for the file name and pass it in. We are currently using SQL Server 2000.
Thank you,
Stacy

I have changed the dattype to datbase date [DT_DBDATE] AND ALSO [DT_DATE] but it still exports datetime format. What is the best and easiest way to setup flat file connection manager to only export date and not the time. Do I have to add another setup to convert to date only?

I'm trying, through the SQL 2005 Mgt Studio, to export a simple table in a delimited format. I'm selecting a double quote as the text qualifier. My expectations were that only text type fields would be exported with the double quotes an numerical fields would not have any quotes around them. SQL 2000 does this just fine, but 2005 is exporting all my text type and numeric fields with double quotes. Is this a change to SQL 2005 or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks for the help,
Tim

Hi guys,
Would any of you be able to provide some guide on how am I going to export the selected data (multiple rows and columns) into Excel or CSV file?
Or at least export into Text file, which I can later on save the file name as .CSV, so it become a CSV file after saving.
Thanks.

Hi.
I am writing a program where I import data into a database with a System.Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSource object, using its Insert method.
Like this...
Dim DataBaseConnectionString As New Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSource()
DataBaseConnectionString.ConnectionString = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
DataBaseConnectionString.InsertCommandType = Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text
DataBaseConnectionString.InsertCommand = "BULK INSERT TBLMain FROM '/file.csv' WITH (FIRSTROW = 2, FIELDTERMINATOR = ',', ROWTERMINATOR = '')"
DataBaseConnectionString.InsertParameters.Add("csvdatapath", OFDCSV.FileName.ToString())
Try
DataBaseConnectionString.Insert()
Catch ex As Exception
I have been able to get this working fine.
I need to export to (ideally) a .CSV or a .XLS. I have tried to use the:
Code Snippet (SQL)COPY TO '
esults.csv' CSV
Is it possible to use a simmilar method of interacting with the database through code to perform this?
Thanks
