I have a set of csv files and a set of Format Specification files for each of the csv files. I need to convert the csv files into another format of csv files as specified in the Format Specification files. All the columns of the input csv files do not have a mapping with the columns of the output csv files. How can I achieve this using SSIS ? This is an urgent requirement. Please reply asap. Thanks.
Can someone please explain the difference between Output and External columns? I can't fathom why "Output" columns aren't good enough. In other words, what is there a need or value in having two types of "output" columns?
I want to create a txt file from a table i have. I have the data in the correct formats but i want to include some padding around my selected four columns.
I am trying to format the result output from my query so that it looks like currency. Does anyone know how to do this? Here is my very simple select statement: SELECT Field_Value FROM tbl_all_results
I was thinking some kind of cast/convert would do the trick but I can't seem to get anything to work.
In my report I have used the "jump to url" for the report output but when I export this to excel I get a column with the correct data and also the url.
Is there anyway of exporting the data without the url?
I want my users to be able to view the report and click on the column the want to URL jump to but also be able to export just the raw data without the URL?
Hello all, I'm trying to write a query against an exisiting table that i can't modify and i'm running into a bit of a problem. The table stores timestamps as a char field instead of a datetime. So, i've had to use the CONVERT function to change it to a datetime during my query. A sample is below: SELECT convert(datetime, logged, 120) FROM AP200310 This works, except i want to include the option of querying a single day. Since the data that is returned is in this format: 12/12/2006 6:54:15 PM The following sql statement doesn't work:SELECT convert(datetime, logged, 120) FROM AP200310 WHERE logged = '12/12/2006' Thanks in advance for any help.

I have installed the trial version of windows server 2003 on the second hard drive on my computer. I set up IIS and ran my website on it but the problem is when I do something on the site, which has a sql insert statement regarding datetime.now it says, "conversion failed when converting datetime from character string"
I think it's to do with the clock on server 2003, the format is like: 11/07/2007 2:39:59 a.m. I think it should be in format AM and not a.m. Any ideas on how to change the time format on a computer?
Or should I just change the Columns in my table to a Nvarcher value or something?
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spAddEvents ( @guid uniqueidentifier, @language char (2), @date as datetime, @eventId as varchar (50), @userid as varchar (20) ) AS execute('insert into tblEvents'+@language+'( guid, [date], [id], userid) values('''+@guid+''','''+@date+''','+@eventId+','''+@userId+''')')
GO
The problem is when I try to insert a new event. The event insert are fine, but the datetime's secound in tblEvents always is 00, and I check the datetime variable to insert and have secound different that 00.
the table definition is Data Type: datetime and Length: 8, how must be?
Hi,I'm new to SQL Server (Express) and I wonder if there is a way that I can format a date's appearance in the database, that is, the format of the datetime column. When I view a date in VWD Express, it's in my country's format (2006-11-24 for example) but when I try to insert a date using the same format using a web form, the inserted date in the database becomes 1905-06-something. This happens regardless of whether I'm inserting a string or if the string has been converted to a date via CDate. So, is there a way I can set the database's date format? And why is it wrong anyway? It's bugging me as the original (Swedish) date is already in the ISO format that SQL Server seems to use (such as yyyy-mm-dd), and I'm using localhost with Windows set to Swedish, IE 6 set to Swedish, and even web.config's UICulture and Culture to Swedish as well. Of course, I can rearrange the order of the date's numbers to get proper values in the db, but it seems as an unnecessary step and I can't figure out what format to use anyway. All help is very welcome. Pettrer
I'm in a learning phase of SQL server 7. I need your help for the following:
I am selecting from a dropdown list Month ('January, february,..... but not as '01', '02'..) and Year (2000, 2001.....), when they are selected a table is displayed for next 12 months starting from the selected month (like say, if April and 2002 was selected, my other table will show Apr. 02 - Mar. 03 ), and data is inserted into it manually. My question is How to insert this date into the sql database...as I just need the month and the year.....and in sql server the date datatype is "datetime", also i have only one column for this month and year....should i change my tables and make different columns for Month and Year. Can only Month (Januray, february.....) and Year (2000, 2001...) be inserted.

I have the following Query which gives the output in XML format. select * from <Table_Name> For XML auto I wanted to store this output in a .Xml file at my local machine. I would prefer to have a proc when called generates the xml and stores it on the local m/c. Any ideas ? Thanks,
I manually build my url for my reports. In the url I build, I can specify the output format I would like it to automatically use when the report opens. However, it always first opens the dialog box to either Save, Open, or Cancel. Is there anyway to bypass this and just open it in the format I have coded in the url? Thanks.

In SQL query I have to find records which occour between two dates. I created Select query with two parameters @date1 and @date2 in clasue WHERE. But problem is with date format of my parameters. This format is to long. I dont wont to use time part of these parameters only date part is needed. When I put two identical dates my query doesn't find any data because both dates are eg. 2007-05-22 00:00:00. But I need data for all this day. How to correct this problem? Regards Pawel.
Hi, I have a SQL Express 2005 db, with the following format for the datetime vales: dd/mm/yyyy, and if the day or the month has only one digit, it'll be completed with a zero(ie 09/03/2007). The problem is that I sent a backup(.bak file) of it to other people, but they see the date as mm/dd/yyyy and the dates are not completed with zeroes(ie 5/5/2007). How can we both have the same format? Any ideas? Thanks a lot.
I'm still having a problem inserting date fields into sql server.
I don't understand how it accepts datetime.
I have all of my date columns defined with datetime format and all of the dates are coming out as the default of: 01/01/1900.
I tried to insert the data as string and sql server doesn't understand that format. Here's some of the code:
We're going from flat VSAM files to an sql server database. This is one huge sql insert statement with about 75 fields being loaded into a table so I'll only post one the date fields. Here's where I call the String functions from:
First, I have to uncomp the field from binary to String:
(lsDet1 is a concatenated String of the SQL Values to be inserted)
And Here are the two functions: The date field is coming in like: 1991112 where if the first character is a 1, the year is 1900 and if the first character is a 0, the year is 2000. I get correct fields in my message box like 1996/12/31 but then I don't know what sql server does to it in datetime format. When I check the database table it looks like: 01/12/1900
Maybe there is something wrong with my Convert_Date function;
Public Function CompToStr(aCompdata() As Byte) As String 'This is one way in which you can unpack a comp field. As I mentioned, 'you might be better off designing a flexible class to do the 'conversions. At minimum, this function should be expanded to 'accept a data picture as a param (decimal placement and so on).
Dim lsRtnStr As String Dim lsHoldStr As String Dim llCount As Long
For llCount = 1 To (UBound(aCompdata) + 1) Step 1 'loop thru the passed array. lsHoldStr = Hex(aCompdata(llCount - 1)) 'Convert the byte to a Hex string. If Len(Trim$(lsHoldStr)) = 1 Then 'if the highorder nibble was 0 lsHoldStr = "0" & Trim$(lsHoldStr) 'pad it with a leading zero. End If lsRtnStr = lsRtnStr & lsHoldStr 'Concat it to the return string. lsHoldStr = "" 'clear the var for the next pass. Next lsRtnStr = Replace$(lsRtnStr, "C", " ") 'Positive sign replacement. lsRtnStr = Replace$(lsRtnStr, "D", "-") 'Negative sign replacement. lsRtnStr = Replace$(lsRtnStr, "F", " ") 'Unsigned - implicit positive. lsRtnStr = Trim$(lsRtnStr)
llCount = 0 llCount = InStr(1, lsRtnStr, "-")
If llCount > 0 Then lsRtnStr = Right$(lsRtnStr, 1) & Left$(lsRtnStr, (Len(lsRtnStr) - 1)) End If CompToStr = lsRtnStr 'Return the hex string. End Function __________________________________________________ ___________________

I have a table with datetime field in SQL server 7.0 I have inserted values into datetime field for eg: '10/10/99' '10/10/99 10:30 AM' '11/10/99 11:50 PM' When I view this table from enterprise manager, values are shown exactly in the same format I have entered. But, When I run the query from Query Analyzer, It always shows values in the following format '1999-10-10 00:00:00.000'
Is there a way that I can see the values in the same format I have entered.
