HOWTO: Write Formula Engine Using T-SQL
Mar 29, 2004
This came from our actuaries, - create a formula generation and processing engine.
They have a dozen of well-normalized base tables that contain statistical data on competitors, broken down by state, county, city, and zip.
The result should contain aggregated breakdown by the same set of data elements, but also include along with other things an input formula and its result for the Base Rate.
The whole thing is a mini-Monte Carlo simmulation.
THE TRICK:
If the formula today looks like:
x = ((a + b) * (c - d + e)) / (a * (c - d) * (f - d) * (e + d))
then tomorrow it may look like:
x = a * b * c * d * e * f
THE REAL TRICK: It should not be based on dynamic SQL!!!
Any thoughts?...

Hello all,
I have been struggling trying to read and/or write package level variables from within my custom task. I'd like to be able to get and set values from within the Execute method of my custom task. I have searched this forum and the books online and can't seem to find the answer. I thought maybe I could use an expression on my task (mapping the package variable to a custom task public property) but that doesn't seem to be working for me. I also would have thought I could use the VariableDispenser object from within my task but the collection is empty. I have 3 package level variables configured and can't seem to find a way to access them (with intentions of getting/setting). Could someone point me to a good doc or provide an example that may accomplish this? Thanks!
(I'm using package level variables as a means of passing simple information between tasks that are not using a DB, if there is a better way I'm open to suggestions.)

I have to create a filter on a dataset that accepts a parameter value which in turn,
1. If i check 'NULL' for that parameter, it has to accept all values,
2. If i give value to that parameter, data depends on that value.
My previous developer has written OR(FIND(Parameter: Param1,Param1)<>0, Parameter: Param1 = EMPTY).how to write this formula in my formula builder..

Does a UPDLOCK request incur a physical write in any isolation level? (including read committed snapshot)
For example:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SELECT col FROM dbo.test WITH ( UPDLOCK )
ROLLBACK
Is there any physical write taking place here?

Hi,
I tried to backup the master key by the following syntax :
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'c: empmaster' ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
but it failed and i got the following message:
Cannot write into file 'c: empmaster'. Verify that you have write permissions, that the file path is valid, and that the file does not already exist.
NB: I am using the "sa" user to execute this command.
I know that we have a security permission issue , but where and how ?

The objective is to configure on a dev machine. Selecting New Database User is the easy part as the ***ASPNET user can be selected from the drop down listbox. What follows and what to do next is a myriad of choices. What needs to be done next? Is there a step-by-step document somewhere that you can refer?

In a DataFlowTask with several OLE DB Destinations, how can I "last", before ending this DFT execute a storedProcedure?
This storedprocedure is used for saving metadata (taskname, rowcounts etc) regarding this DFT and I dont want to add an ExecuteSQLTask after the DFT in the Control Flow

Hi ,
i have the following Problem: i need to have a database-design in which there are a variable number of customers , a variable numbers of products and a price per product per user. My solution looks like this:
Table Customer:
CustomerID
...
Table Products:
ProductID
...
Table Prices:
CustomerID
ProductID
Price
Now my question: is it possible to get a Pricelist with one customer and all his prices in one row? E.g.:
CustomerID ; PriceProduct1 ; PriceProduct2 ; ....
So one Price-Column per Product, one Row per Customer? Can i do something like that with an sql-statement , view or stored-procedure so the number of Columns in the result depends on the number of Products and should be "dynamic" - which means when i add a new product to the product-table a new price-column is appended to the result?
thanks in advance.

hi,
i have a vb.net progi which i want to run under sql server 2005 as CLR.
the prob is that when i want to create the assembly in sql 2005 it says
that the create of the Interop.FC_COM.dll (this is the COM interop object) failed.
when i try to create the Interop.FC_COM.dll as an assembly in sql 2005 it fails because this dll is not follwing the structure of a CLR dll.
i've heard somewhere that MS is not supporting COM objects under CLR directly. is that true?
any comments welcome,
thnx

Hi all!
I would like to gain data from a temporaly table created by an EXEC command.
e.g. EXEC('SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM Table WHERE ...') - that's right.
But I would like to use it:
SELECT * FROM _ThisTempTableTheExecCommandHasCreatedRigthNow
WHERE...
I know that a function can return a table but an sp cannot.
How can I do it?
Thx: Gurmy

Hi,
I'm novice to SSIS and looking for some help on SSIS dtexec (SQL Server 2005).
Is it possible to change the BulkInsertTableName when running a package via dtexec /SET?
My test scenario contains:
- SQLServer 2005 SP2, servername: SDPM01, instancename: GWLINST1, databasename 1: TEST, databasename 2: DEV, tablename 1: Test_Table1 (both in TEST and DEV database), tablename 2: Test_Table2 (both in TEST and DEV database)
- 1 Data Flow task in BIDS (SSIS)
- 1 Data Flow Source: Flat File Source (Flat File Connection Manager name: FTP File Output + CSV file with a few lines of data that needs to be inserted in a SQL Server table)
- 1 Data Flow Destination: SQL Server Destination (OLE DB Connection Manager name: SDPM01GWLINST1.TEST
I can dynamically change the name of the database via:
DTExec /F "Package.dtsx" /SET "Package.Connections[SDPM01GWLINST1.TEST].InitialCatalog;DEV"
How can I also dynamically change the table name where the data from the CSV file will be inserted?
DTExec /F "Package.dtsx" /SET ...
Thanks in advance,
Geert

Hi. I have data which comes as a string like"... Store #61"but sometimes it is"... Store 61"and sometimes it is"... Store 061"For three digits, it might be "... Store 561" or "... Store #561", or"... Store 0561".....The only thing I can be sure of is that the last 2 or 3 (significant)digits of this field represent the StoreNumber.I have to link this table on field StoreNumber with another table wherethe data is ALWAYS like 0061, 0561, etc, so always four digits, paddedwith zeroes.I'd like to use the equivalent of the VB functionFormat(StoreNumber), "0000"), but Format does NOT exist in TSQL.How could I solve this problem ? Please bear with me - I'm a beginnerin SQL...Thank you very muchAlex.

Hi.I have a "union" table which results of a union of two tables.Occasionally I could have duplicates, when the same PIN has been addedto both tables, albeit at different Datees/Times, such as:PINNameAdded Date100411A7/11/2007 10:12:58 AM100411A7/17/2007 10:54:23 AM100413B7/11/2007 10:13:28 AM100413B7/17/2007 10:54:39 AM104229C7/6/2007 2:34:13 PM104231D7/6/2007 2:34:25 PM104869E6/10/2007 11:59:12 AM104869E6/22/2007 2:40:18 PMThe question is - how can I delete by queries the first occurence(time-wise) of these duplicates - i.e. I would want to delete thefirst occurence of 100411 (A), the first occurence of 100413 (B), andthe first occurence of 104869 (E) in the example above - records C andD show only once, so they are fine.Is there a MsAccess solution ? Is there a SQL-server solution ?Thank you very much !Alex

Hi,
We are thinking about buying new harddrives to improve sql server performance. Currently TEMPDB is running on a dedicated RAID 0 with 3 harddrives of 136 GB, 10.000 RPM. When running a large bulk insert within a SSIS package to 15 destination tables we notice high numbers in the Avg. and current Read Queue length (above 3000) of the drive where TEMPB is on. No other programs or swap file is using this RAID 0 drive. Can anyone tell me if it is worth buying 4 harddrives of 15.000 RPM each 33 GB big replacing the current 3 drives? How much impact will it have on the Avg. and Current Read queue length and will it improve the time sql server needs to bulk insert data?
Thanks.
Marc

(Didn't know in wich group this question belongs....)
Hi group,
In QA there is an option called 'Script object as....' Were developing a lot of sp's.
When I use this option the 'skeleton' of a sp is created.
Eg
Create proc uspMySP
@Message varchar(10)
AS
SELECT @Message
The mention option would generate the following:
DECLARE @RC int
DECLARE @Message varchar(10)
-- Set parameter values
EXEC @RC = [EMGLSP3].[EM3_OWN].[uspMySP] @Message
The question:
Is it possible to customize this? I would like to *** SET statements...
Is this possible?
Regards
Sander
