Destination Columns Question
Jul 23, 2005When I create a DTS to export a text file from a table, if I click onthe Define Columns button and then Populate from source, then execute,it changes one of the types to not quotable and the size to 19, whichin turn is changing the file width. The field that it is changing hasa numeric data type and the remainder of the fields are text (allvarying sizes). Is it doing this because it is numeric or is theresome other explaination? And is there anyway to stop it fromhappening?

Apr 10, 2007Hi all,
I want to copy 2 columns from 1 database to another database.
I managed to do this, using a Ole DB source and a Ole DB destination dataset.
Now I want to merge 2 colums into 1:
Source Database: Column A: first name, Column B: Lastname.
Destination Database: Column 1: First and lastname customer.
Thanks for your help!

How To Map New Columns To An Oledb Destination Using Script?
Jun 29, 2006Overview of my scenario: i have an SQL table with 10 columns. I read data off a csv flat file source and insert / update them into the sql. No problems there.
Now, after the 10th column, the columns are variable from site to site. Ie, for any customer, the first 10 columns are the same but the following 'n' number of columns can be different.
I'm already able to detect what are the 'custom' columns from the source db and can programmatically add / modify the columns to the destination sql tables when SSIS runs.
My problem now is, i have the flat file source with 'fixed' and 'custom' columns together, and my sql table is ready to receive them, but i don't have the proper column mappings in my SSIS package. I only have mappings for the 'fixed' columns.
How can i programmatically 'add' these mappings to my data source and subsequently my oledb destination?
What strategy should i use? Open for anyone's suggestions or ideas.
Thanks.

Maximum Number Of Destination Columns In OLE DB Command??
Apr 29, 2008I'm using 2 OLE DB Commands; 1 to perform an insert the other an update. I have found that on the column mapping tab, I only have 10 parameters available to map to. The issue is I need 40 parameters. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting I am missing? Is there another way to do this? Am I out of luck .
Here is the sql query I am using, so you can see that I have the correct number of parameters listed:

Dynamic Columns For Flat File Destination?
Jul 10, 2006I have a database app, and we're implementing various data export features using SSIS.
Basically, it's a couple of straight extracts of various recordsets/views, etc. to CSV (flat files) from our SQL Server 2005 database, so I'm creating an SSIS package for each of these datasets.
So far, so good, but my problem comes here: My requirements call for users to select from a list of available columns the fields that they want to include in their exported file. Then, the package should run, but only output the columns specified by the user.
Does anyone have any idea as to the best way to accomplish this? To recap, at design time, I know which columns the users will have to choose from, but at run time, they will specify the columns to export to the flat file.
Any help or guidance here is greatly appreciated
How Do I Order Columns In My Custom Destination Component?
Nov 17, 2006Here is the situation. I have created a package that takes 50 columns from a comma delimited flat file. I then validate and clean the data. Next I add two columns that were not in the original source file. These two columns need to be in the 5th and 9th column position when the file is then re-written to a text file. How do i get those two columns to write out in the desired order? Any ideas?

Not Able To Map View Columns To A Flat File Destination
Oct 16, 2007Hi,
I have a dataflow task with two components: OLE DB source --> Flat File destination
In the OLE DB source, I am accessing a view, not a table.
However, when I attempt to map the view's input columns to the flat file destination columns, the screen is completely blank. There's none of the usual drop downs that let you select the column name, nor can I drag and drop the input column from the upper pane to the lower pane.
Is there a trick to doing this?
Thanks
Complication - When Mapping Columns To OLEDB Destination In C#
Aug 28, 2007
Hi ,
I have a Package Consisting of the following (tried to portray the flow below)
1) OLE DB Source (Which I set the sql command for in code)
|
/
2) Rowcount Transform (Counts the Source Records)
|
/
3) Derived Column (Adds An AuditJobID ,ExecutionStartDate)
|
/
4) Conditional Split (Splits New and Updated Record - My Implementation of SCD)
/
/ /
5) Rowcount Transform (Counts the New Records) Rowcount Transform (Counts Update Records)
/
/ /
6) OLEDB Destination OLEDB Update Command
I am trying to map the columns in the "OLEDB Destination" with c# ,with the following
IDTSInput90 input = oledbDestination.InputCollection[0];
IDTSVirtualInput90 vInput = input.GetVirtualInput();
As soon as I call the input.GetVirtualInput(); method I get a com exception ,Seem that I am missing a
VirtualInputColumnCollection on the component ,but can't seem to figure out why.
When I drop the all the other components and only keep the OLEDb Source and OLEDB Destination with a flow between them , the call to input.GetVirtualInput() doe not fail with a com exception and I can mapping normally
I really need some guidance on the above.

Some Columns Not Populated In Data Flow Destination
Mar 13, 2007I am populating a table using a SQL command. very simple.
SELECT RISKID
,RISKIDREN
,RISKIDEND
,PREMIUMSUBTOTAL
,PREMIUMTOTAL
,SURCHARGE1
,SURCHARGE2
,SURCHARGE3
,SURCHARGE4
,SURCHARGE5
,COMMPREMIUM1
FROM PREMIUM
However, the first three columns are not being populated in the destination table. The other columns come over fine.
The SQL stmt. returns data as expected when run against the source database.
I deleted the source and destination and recreated the flow to prevent metadata mapping issues. In the source editor preview I see all of the columns and data. In the destination editor preview, the first three columns of data are null ???.
It appears that the columns are not mapping properly even though they are in the source and destination of the mapping editor.
I have made sure that the destination mapping contains all the columns in the UI.
The source and destination have the columns represented in the advanced editor metedata. I also checked the XML to verify that the columns are in the destination.
There is a row count between the source and destination. which should have no effect.
This is a part of a larger DW load where I have 10 other tables populated within the dataflow. I also do not get any validation, or error messages. So, I have eliminated truncation errors or the like.
I am really puzzled. Has anyone run accross anything like this?
Order Of Columns In Flat File Destination
Oct 23, 2007I need to create a number of flat files, all with the same layout and sourced from the the same table, but with different criteria.
The first set of (three) flat files file is created out of a simple Conditional Split transformation: If Source Table row number > 40,000 route to File 3; if row number > 20,000, route to file 2, otherwise route to file 1. This gives me 20,000 rows in files 1 & 2 and the remainder in file 3.
I also want to create a fourth flat file by joining the Source Table with a sample table and selecting only those rows where the Customer numbers match. I'm currently doing this in two stages: An Execute SQL Task performs the join and inserts the selected rows into a Destination table (identical layout to source table), and then a simple data flow moves the rows from the Destination table into the fourth flat file.
My problem is that the order of the columns in the first three flat files is different from the fourth file. I've tried creating the fourth flat file with a single data flow using a Merge Join transformation which didn't work because the tables aren't sorted in the correct sequence, and I couldn't get an OLE DB Command transformation to work either.
I'm not sure why the column order of the 4th file should be different seeing as how its contents are sourced from the same Source table, but is there a cunning way of setting this up so that the columns end up in the same order?

Jan 15, 2007I have a flat file data source and SQL Server destination data flow. Only a subset of columns from the source are mapped to the destination. During execution SSIS returns DTS pipline warnings for every unmapped source column. Is some kind of transformation the only way to get rid of these warnings?

DB Design :: Copy Specific Columns For Source To Destination
Nov 4, 2015I am trying to Import data into SQL server 2008 using management studio. The source data is an Access dbase. I am trying to do this with queries as the tables do not match but I do need to copy specific columns for the source to the destination. Any brief example selecting a column from the source table, and just entering a dummy value for other columns(other column of data for destination table does not exist in source table).
For the example
Source access dbase, just two columns but no primary key, T2dbase, Employee
New table.
First Name, Description
Tom , manager
Destination dbase SQLServer (T1dbase,Employee table), note 4 columns
Primary key NameID, FirstName nvarchar (20), LastName nvarchar (20), Description nvarchar(20)

SSIS Script Source Destination Insert Null Columns
Dec 1, 2006Hi I have an SSIS package that retrieves table data from a database using an OLE DB source component.
This then passes the rows of data to a script destination component.
Within this script my code takes the row data and inserts it into the database (amongst other things).
However I have noticed that if any of the Row columns contain nulls then the component falls over with errors when run like so:
[Back Up Prize Banks [2875]] Error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Parameterized Query '(@PASId int,@ScriptName nvarchar(17),@LastModified datetime,@Pri' expects parameter @RegenerateXML, which was not supplied. at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.HandleUserException(Exception e) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.ProcessInput(Int32 inputID, PipelineBuffer buffer) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostProcessInput(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper90 wrapper, Int32 inputID, IDTSBuffer90 pDTSBuffer, IntPtr bufferWirePacket)
I have solved the problem by checking the column contents before inserting it as follows:
Before:
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML", Row.RegenerateXML)
After:
If (Row.RegenerateXML_IsNull()) Then
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML",System.DBNull.Value)
Else
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML", Row.RegenerateXML)
End If
Which is great but it does turn 1 line into 5 lines. I have 20 parameters which takes up 20 lines of code which will now be 20 x 5 = 100 lines of code.
My question is :
Is there a better way to write this code without having to take up so many lines?
Thanks

SSIS Programmaing - How To Map Flatfile Source Columns To SQL Server Destination?
Dec 7, 2007Hi,
I am new to SSIS programming and trying to export data from a flatfile source to SQL server destination table dynamically. I need to get the table schema info (column length, data type etc.) from SQL server table and then map the source columns from flatfile to destination table columns.
I am referring to one of the programming samples from Microsoft and another excellent article by Moim Hossain. Can someone help me understand how to map the Source columns to destination table columns depending on table schema? Please help.
Thanks

Integration Services :: SSIS 2008 R2 - Add Columns To Existing Mapping With Destination DB Table

Is there any alternative?
View 3 Replies View RelatedRS2k Issue: PDF Exporting Report With Hidden Columns, Stretches Visible Columns And Misplaces Columns On Spanned Page
Dec 13, 2007Hello:
I am running into an issue with RS2k PDF export.
Case: Exporting Report to PDF/Printing/TIFF
Report: Contains 1 table with 19 Columns. 1 column is static, the other 18 are visible at the users descretion. Report when printed/exported to pdf spans 2 pages naturally, 16 on the first page, 3 on the second, and the column widths have been adjusted to provide a perfect page span .
User A elects to hide two of the columns, and show the rest. The report complies and the viewable version is perfect, the excel export is perfect.. the PDF export on the first page causes every fith column, starting with the last column that was hidden to be expanded to take up additional width. On the spanned page, it renders the first column on that page correctly, then there is a white space gap equal to the width of the hidden columns and then the rest of the cells show with the last column expanded to take up the same width that the original 2 columns were going to take up, plus its width.
We have tried several different settings to see if it helps this issue or makes it worse. So far cangrow/canshrink/keep together have made no impact. It is not possible to increase the page size due to limited page size selection availablility for the client. There are far too many combinations of what the user can elect to show or hide to put together different tables to show and hide on the same report to remove this effect.
Any help or suggestion on this issue would be appreciated
OLE DB DESTINATION And SQL Server Destination
Jul 4, 2007Hey All:
I was totally confused.
When designing the SSIS dataflow part, firstly , i tried SQL Server Destination because my target server is a sql server.
then execute the task with failure.
Then i tried to use OLE DB DESTINATION instead of SQL Server Destination.
This Dataflow worked.
i can not figour out why.
By the way , i used the connection is OLE DB.And i choosed OLE DB source as the datasource cuz i can not find SQL server datasource.
Who can tell me some reasons for this?
Transact SQL :: Select And Parse Json Data From 2 Columns Into Multiple Columns In A Table?
Apr 29, 2015I have a business need to create a report by query data from a MS SQL 2008 database and display the result to the users on a web page. The report initially has 6 columns of data and 2 out of 6 have JSON data so the users request to have those 2 JSON columns parse into 15 additional columns (first JSON column has 8 key/value pairs and the second JSON column has 7 key/value pairs). Here what I have done so far:
I found a table value function (fnSplitJson2) from this link [URL]. Using this function I can parse a column of JSON data into a table. So when I use the function above against the first column (with JSON data) in my query (with CROSS APPLY) I got the right data back the but I got 8 additional rows of each of the row in my table. The reason for this side effect is because the function returned a table of 8 row (8 key/value pairs) for each json string data that it parsed.
1. First question: How do I modify my current query (see below) so that for each row in my table i got back one row with 19 columns.
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B
If updated my query (see below) and call the function twice within the CROSS APPLY clause I got this error: "The multi-part identifier "A.ITEM6" could be be bound.
2. My second question: How to i get around this error?
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*, C.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B, fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM6,NULL) C
I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 version. Windows 7 desktop.

How Dose It Matter For The Non-clustered Index Key Columns And Included Columns?
Apr 24, 2007Hi, all experts here,
Thanks a lot for your kind attention.
As I am creating the non-clustered indexes for the tables, I dont quite understand how dose it really matter to put the columns in the index key columns or put them into the included columns of the index?
I am really confused about that and I am looking forward to hearing from you and thank you very much again for your advices and help.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
A Word About Meta-data, Pass Through Columns And Derived Columns
Oct 13, 2006Here's another one of my bitchfest about stuff which annoy the *** out of me in SSIS (and no such problems in DTS):
Do you ever wonder how easy it was to set up text file to db transform in DTS - I had no problems at all. In SSIS - 1 spent half a day trying to figure out how to get proper column data types for text file - OF Course MS was brilliant enough to add "Suggest Types" feature to text file connection manager - BUT guess what - it sample ONLY 1000 rows - so I tried to change that number to 50000 and clicked ok - BUT ms changed it to 1000 without me noticing it - SO NO WONDER later on some of datatypes did not match. And boy what a fun it is to change the source columns after you have created a few transforms.
This s**hit just breaks... So a word about Derived Columns - pretty useful feature heh? ITs not f***ing useful if it DELETES SOME of the Code itself after there have been changes in dataflow. I cant say how pissed off im about that SSIS went ahead and deleted columns from flow & messed up derived columns just because the lineageIDs dont match.
Meta-data - it would be useful if you could change it and refresh it - im just sick and tired of it that it shows warnings and errors when there's nothing wrong - so after a change i need to doubleclick all my transforms so that those red & yellow boxes would disappear.
Oh and y I passionately dislike Derived columns - so you create new fields based on some data - you do some stuff - combine multiple columns to one, but you have no way saying remove the columns from the pipeline. Y you need it - well if you have 50K + rows with 30+ columns then its EXTRA useless memory overhead for your package.
Hopefully one day I will understand how SSIS works (not an ez task I say) - I might be able to spend more time on development and less time on my bitchfest - UNTIL then --> Another Day - Another Hassle with SSIS
