I'm trying to filter out timestamps that land exactly at .000 milliseconds. (e.g. 2007-12-05 16:30:50.000) Do I have to convert the timestamp to a string first and then use the LIKE statement? If so, can somebody show me how. I'm pretty green to SQL but know the basics. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
View 2 RepliesHi,
We are migrating to SQL Server 2005 from 2000 and we have a view created in many of our databases. That view must be changed after the migration because it uses system tables and does not return the correct information in SQL Server 2005.
To do that, I want to create an SSIS-package that loops through all the databases on a particular server. If that view exists in the database, I want to run a script that change the view.
What I try to do:
Set up a For Each Loop container with Foreach SMO Enumerator
Set the connection to my server
Set the Enumerate property to "SMOEnumObj[@Name='Databases']/SMOEnumType[@Name='Names']"
On the Variable Mapping page, place Index 0 in Variable User::dbName
In the For Each Loop, place a script task to msgbox the value of User::dbName
This all works good. The problem comes when I try to nest the For Each Loop
Inside the "For Each Database Loop", place a new For Each Loop container with Foreach SMO Enumerator
I connect the Msgbox Script Task with the new For each loop
Use the same connection
Set the EnumURN property in the Expression Builder to "Database[@Name='" + @[User::dbName] +"']/SMOEnumObj[@Name='Views']/SMOEnumType[@Name='Names']"
On the Variable Mapping page, place index 0 in Variable User::tabName
In the For Each Loop, place a script task to msgbox the value of User::tabName
When I try to run the package now, it does not at all.
In my Progress tab I see that Validation has started and completed for each task, but I see now errors. Nothing has run.
Test 1: I change the DelayValidation for the Inner Loop to True
Now the package runs, but I never get to the script task in the inner loop.
Question 1: What's the problem?
Question 2: Is there another way to do this?
Regards
Magnus
Report Builder 3.0 . I have two datasets and I am using LookupSet to return data (a list of dates) but what I am after is the LAST date in the set. I have tried to use Last but I keep getting an error.Â
=Last(LookupSet(Fields!Model_Name.Value,Fields!Model_Name.Value,Fields!Read_Date.Value,"dsPageCount"))
I even tried doing a Last on the above statement with a Join thrown in, but that just gets me errors as well. I tried to Code in a function to go through the dataset and return the last piece of data, but again...error.Â
Function LastLookup(ByVal items As Object()) As Date
If items Is Nothing Then
Return Nothing
End If
Dim suma As Date = New Date()
For Each item As Object In items
suma = CDate(item)
Next
Because SSIS truncates the milliseconds from an SQL datetime datatype I figured I'd convert my datetime values to strings:
SELECT CONVERT(VarChar(30),ICINVMax,109) AS ICINVMax
I map ICINVMax to a string variable in the result set.
The string variable seems to work fine with an Execute SQL Task such as:
Select count (DISTINCT ICINVENTORY.ICINVNumber) AS NumRows
FROM ICINVENTORY
WHERE ICINVENTORY.ICINVLastChgAt > ? (? is mapped to the package variable)
However when I try the same SQL string in an OLE DB Source I get an error - "Invalid character value for cast specification".
Any ideas????
Hello guys,

I have read the forums and fail to be encouraged about using the timestamp to handle concurrency. I have SQL 2005 and am using the DataReader and command objects for data manipulation. The database has about a dozen related tables to each other in some way. Correct me if I am wrong, but using timestamps means I must store each table's original rowversion at read time in several possible combinations of variables (based on the joined tables at the time of read). Is this right? Then at update time, what if some related tables are timestamped with the original value and others have changed since read time? How would each update stored procedure know which other dependent tables were fetched at read time? It's easy to corrupt the data this way.
SELECT s.OrderNumber, a.UserName AS OrderedBy, cn.LastName + ', ' + cn.FirstName AS ContactName, s.CarbonCopy, s.Application, s.OrderDate,
s.FollowUpDate, s.ProdStartDate, s.InternalNote, s.SampleNote, s.UpdatedBy, s.DateLastUpdated, cn.EMail AS ContactEmail, s.MfgID,
co.CompanyName, s.ShipVia, cn2.LastName + ', ' + cn2.FirstName AS ContactName2, co2.CompanyName AS Expr1,
cn3.LastName + ', ' + cn3.FirstName AS ContactName3, s.MfgContactID, s.DistributorID, s.DistContactID, s.CustomerContactID,
s.VersionStamp, a.VersionStamp, cn.VersionStamp, co.VersionStamp, cn3.VersionStamp <------- Is all this really necessary?
FROM Samples AS s LEFT OUTER JOIN
Associates AS a ON s.OrderedByID = a.AssociateID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Contacts AS cn ON s.CustomerContactID = cn.ContactID INNER JOIN
Companies AS co ON s.MfgID = co.CompanyID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Contacts AS cn3 ON s.DistContactID = cn3.ContactID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Contacts AS cn2 ON s.MfgContactID = cn2.ContactID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Companies AS co2 ON s.DistributorID = co2.CompanyID
WHERE (s.SampleID = @SampleID)
What would be a simple way to update a table that depends on other tables having original version stamps? Then at runtime how would I enforce it without generating violations when the users were updating, say, the Samples table and just viewing the dependent tables' columns, not changing them.
When i try to load tables from DB2 OS390 Via DTS and DB2 ODBC it
give me an error with the timestamp field. Its (DTS) says the timestamp
field on SQL is marked read only.
Is there anyway around this problem?
Hello!
I think I am missing some essential idea when working with a timestamp column, maybe someone around here can give me the needed pointers on how-to...
My situation is: I want to copy data periodically from one DB to another. Both are in the same SQL instance, so there are no transaction, networking or similar issues involved. It all really comes down to identifing the new rows in source and moving them over to destination.
I added a TIMESTAMP column to my source, and I can see it count up slowly for every line inserted. On the destination side, I added a table containig just one field, type binary(8) to store the last value to which the last transfer ran.
Notice that on source side I got the counter on every row, but on destination side I got only one value, I thought it would be waste to carry over the data for every row when I really only need the latest one.
Now, what my package does is:
a) Select the last used binary(8) value into a package variable named TS of type object (works)
b) Start a dataflow, where the source is SELECT statement and the WHERE clause is TIMESTAMP > package variable TS (works)
c) Multicast the data into two recordsets
d) One recordset makes most of the columns flow through some Lookups, Derive Columns into a Destination and are written back. (works)
e) The other exit of the Multicast shall go through all lines and catch the highest TIMESTAMP that came by using an Aggregate and write it down, since that is the point I need to pick up later. (and that is the problem)
Problems are: I cannot run Aggregate max on the TIMESTAMP. Only Count is allowed.
So I need to convert the BINARY(8) into a number to be able to catch the max value. Converting between BINARY(8) and DT_I8 or similar seems not possible, or the result is wrong due to the byte ordering (MSB/LSB, most/less significant byte first)
Later on, I need to write out my new found highest value again, but here the same problem applies. How do I convert from DT_I8 back to BINARY(8)?
Having my own reference value stored as bigint instead of binary(8) does not work either: You cannot assign bigint from a select to a package variable, bigint are loaded as string (as I read in a blog, and I think they are right since I get exactly the same errors).
So...
HOW does one work in an efficient way with a TIMESTAMP column to Aggregate it to max and store out this max value?
Or do you all keep the TIMESTAMP from source appended to your rows and stored with each row in destination (Wasting eight precious bytes a row)?
Thanks for your comments!

Hello. I've seached the this forum and others for this question of mine but couldn't get any thing. Everyone know that in MSSQL, the precision of datetime is currently limited to 1/300th of a second. My question is, is there any way to store the actual millisecond in the a table? Also, later, able to pull it up from the table? What are the options?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Rick..
Hi Everyone....
Crazy one here....
I need to populate a table with all the times that
are available in a 24 hour period, down to the 5 minute
interval.
So the table should look like....
id ds (datetime stamp)
--- --------------------------
0 1/1/2005 00:00:00
1 1/1/2005 00:05:00
2 1/1/2005 00:10:00
3 1/1/2005 00:15:00
.........
xx 1/1/2005 23:55:00
Please advise on a way to accomplish this in a script....
thanks

I have a set of data with epoch timestamps. Purely for the sake of reporting, I need to pull the last six months of data and group it by month. I have tried searching the googles for epoch/milliseconds to datetime but I only get the MySQL or Oracle results, not MSSQL.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have an Access XP ADE application connected to a SQL Server 7.0 SP4database. I have created a timestamp column in the main table.Unfortunately, I am now getting persistent write conflict errors.The order of operations are:1. The application starts and loads the recordset into the form using astored procedure.2. I modify a field and press a save button which uses me.dirty=false toforce a save.3. The field is saved to the database. Using profiler I can observe themodified field being saved. As I would expect, the update statement isusing the primary key and the timestamp column value. For the sake of thisdiscussion let's assume the value of the timestamp is 5ad9.4. Without navigating off the record, I alter the same field (or adifferent field) and press save again and a write conflict will appear.Using profiler I can see the update statement that is attempting to updatethe record. The update statement is using the previous value (5ad9) of thetimestamp column.I thought that the timestamp column value is incremented each time therecord is updated. The ADE application does not appear to be recognizingthe new timestamp value.Any help or advice you could give would be appreciated.ThanksGeorge

How do you add a specific timestamp to a backup? For example, if the backups are going to the same drive location on disk and you want to retain 3 days worth of backups online, how do you add the timestamp to the filename to make each backup unique?
F:MSSQL.1MSSQLBackup and your user database is <xyz>_<timestamp>.bak
The user database dumps each night at 9 PM.
You want to keep 3 days of online backups.
Greetings once again SSIS friends,
I have some source tables which contain timestamp fields (that's timestamp data type not datetime). My dimension table holds the maximum timestamp value as a varbinary(8).
I want my package to have a variable that holds that value but I don't know which data type to use for this. The reason for this is because I want to use that variable to then retrieve all records from my source table that have a timestamp value greater than the value stored in the variable.
Please advise on what data type is suitable.
Thanks for your help in advance.

We have a "main" SQL 2014 server who imports XML files using SSIS in a datacenter. In remote sites (which are warehouses), there is an instance of SQL 2014 Express.

Now, the merge replication replicate all the data to the server on each sites.

Is there a way to replicate only the data relevant to each individual sites to the subscribers? Or is there a better way than replication to accomplish this?
I want to ship 500,000 aged transactions each night to an archive table and delete them from their source table in one or more logical units of work (LUW). Each row is approx 60 bytes and there is only one non clustered index on the source table presently.
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of 3 alternatives. One of them would basically insert the non-aged rows into tempdb, ship the aged records, truncate the table and then insert the tempdb records back into their source all in the same LUW.
For this alternative, I'd at least like to turn off logging when the records get inserted into tempdb as I dont see any value in logging that part of the activity. Is this possible?

Hi there !
Thanks for taking the time to read this thread.
I don't know whether anyone has this problem, but I am definitely not using the right keywords to search for a thread.
My situation is this...
I have a dataset that has values to fill cells to multiple tables in a report.
However, I only want to select specific data from the dataset to fill textboxes and others.
I cannot change the stored procedure, but the sample of the data is shown below:-
Row Stat Val
0 dtRpt1 02/01/2005
1 Value1 1
2 Value2 2000
3 dtMailSent 02/28/2005
4 Value3 0
5 Value4 5
6 Value5 658
I know it looks weird, but the row really represents which "row" or textbox is it to fill with the Val. The Stat Column is just a way to make sure that I am filling the right values.
so my new report would have multiple tables to denote different categories.
In my first table, I tried putting the cells as follows:-
(expressions are highlighted in italics and bold)
TextBox1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =0, Fields!Val.Value,"")
Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =1, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =2, Fields!Val.Value,"")
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =3, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =4, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow3 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =5, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow4 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =6, Fields!Val.Value,"")
I only expect this report to print out one page holding the previous values.
However, it ended up printing like this
----------------------------------------------------------
Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 1
DetailRow2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 2000
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 02/28/2005
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 0
DetailRow3
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3 5
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4 658
------------------------------------------------------
I tried putting it into the headerrows instead of DetailRows, and it ended up printing the last value.
Is there anyway to do this ? print all the values out in one table ? I tried using textboxes, but I think I got my expression wrong.
Is this the correct expression ?
=IIF((Fields!Row.Value,"Dataset") =1, (Fields!Val.value, "Dataset"), "")
and it give me an error
The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox5€™ contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'FalsePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.
Appreciate any advice or suggestion for this scenario !
Thanks!

DataRow dr = dt1.NewRow();
dr["no"] = 1;
dr["date_t"] = DateTime.Now;
dt1.Rows.Add(dr);
for(int i=0;i<dt1.Rows.Count;i++)
{
string str=dt1.Rows["no"].ToString();

string insertQuery = "insert into date_test values(" + str + ",'" + dt + "')";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, connectionToDatabase);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MessageBox.Show("saved");
}
When I run the above code, data is inserted into the table
The value in the date_t column is 2007-07-09 22:10:11 000.The milliseconds value is always 000 only.I need the millisecond values also in date_t column.
Is there any conversion needed for millisecond values?

I am very early on in developing a website to track issues with projects which is tied to a SQL database. I have my Projects Table, my Users Table, and am creating a third table to track issues. I'm wondering what is the best way to assign specific users to specific data/projects. The user should only be able to view & update the projects assigned to him. He should not be able to see other projects. What is the best way to assign projects/data to the users to make sure they are only viewing their data?

I have a report that is grouped by week. The details of the week have the date, time interval (half hour), and the maximum value for that day. So in the example below I am showing the week of May 21st. Then I have all of the days of that week, sorted by date as requested, with the halfhour the maximum value occured in on that day. So Monday the 22nd has the maximum value for the week at 254 (and is highlighted in red). Where the ????? are below, I need to display '1400' which is the interval, but have not yet been able to figure out how to do this.
I tried the following expression:
=iif(max(Fields!MaxValue.Value) = Fields!MaxValue.Value, Fields!Interva.Value, "X")
but this only works if the first day is the maximum value.

I have, say 4 rows for 1 client I want to find the date difference between two(or more) of the rows when the first has a true flag and the next does not
Row1 Date1,falseRow2 Date2,trueRow3 Date3,falseRow4 Date4,false
so I want to find the difference between Row2 Date2 and Row3 Date4I know I can loop through the rows but with 000's of clients each with x numbers of rows this will surely be very slow
I have a form where users can enter an appointment on this form some personal details are entered. I want the users to be able to write in a textbox the users surname. they will then press a button next to the textbox that will bring up a smaller screen displaying that users details :
SELECT * FROM Members where surname = (textbox1)
Alternatively the users can click the button and bring up a screen where the users can put the surname into a textbox and then bring up the users details this way.
I am not sure how to do this or how to select from the database where a field in the database is the same as the information put in to a text.
Is this possible? Thanks in advance Mike

Example Data:
Dept Section
1 Admin
1 Finance
1 Marketing
2 Admin
2 Sales
2 Marketing
3 Admin
3 Sales
3 Finance
The query would only return 'Admin' since this is the only Section that is represented in Departments 1,2 + 3.
I am not in control of the data design and can't create a bitwise field to achieve this.
