In the data flow task I have multiple OLE DB source task to retreive data from a cube using MDX. Below is an example of the query from sql command text field: I have a few questions on how to modify this statment to make it more robust.
1) The where clause [Calendar].[Quarter 2 (2007)] should actually be some kind of variable that will change each time
the user runs this project. So I am wondering how to make this a variable and get it into this field.
2) I had thought that I could use the SSIS variable. I have created one, but I can not figure how to get it into the field that
contains the given select statment.
3) I believe that once I get this variable part to work then I want a way to have user set this data value. Either by selecting data from a table in database or through a user interface where user enters data. I did do some resarch on creating a user interface, but I did not understand what I had to do, so if any one knows where to find a tutorial on how to do this let me know, or what they believe the best/easiest way is to get data from user to fill this where clause.
select * from OPENROWSET('MSOLAP', 'DATASOURCE=local; Initial Catalog=Patient Demographics 2005;',
'with member [Measures].[TimeDisplayName] as [Calendar].CurrentMember.Name
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[TimeDisplayName],[Measures].[Adjusted Relative Weight],[Measures].[Adjusted Case Weight]} ON COLUMNS,
({[Facility].[REGION].[NATCODE], [Facility].[REGION].[REGCODE]} *
[RIC].[CMGGRPCD].ALLMEMBERS) ON ROWS FROM [ESR]
WHERE [Calendar].[Quarter 2 (2007)]
')
i am using a OLE DB Source in my dataflow component and want to select rows from the source based on the Name I enter during execution time. I have created two variables,
enterName - String packageLevel (will store the name I enter)
myVar - String packageLevel. (to store the query)
I am assigning this query to the myVar variable, "Select * from db.Users where (UsrName = " + @[User::enterName] + " )"
Now in the OLE Db source, I have selected as Sql Command from Variable, and I am getting the variable, enterName,. I select that and when I click on OK am getting this error.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E0C. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E0C Description: "Command text was not set for the command object.".
Can Someone guide me whr am going wrong?
myVar variable, i have set the ExecuteAsExpression Property to true too.
Hi. I am writing a program in C# to migrate data from a Foxpro database to an SQL Server 2005 Express database. The package is being created programmatically. I am creating a separate data flow for each Foxpro table. It seems to be doing it ok but I am getting the following error message at the package validation stage:
Description: An OLE DB Error has occured. Error code: 0x80040E0C.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E0C Description: "Command text was not set for the command object".
.........
Description: "component "OLE DB Destination" (22)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
This is the first time I am writing such code and I there must be something I am not doing correct but can't seem to figure it out. Any help will be highly appreciated. My code is as below:
private bool BuildPackage()
{
// Create the package object
oPackage = new Package();
// Create connections for the Foxpro and SQL Server data
MessageBox.Show("The DTS package was not built successfully because of the following error(s):" + sErrorMessage, "Package Builder", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
Im a programmer for an university webportal which uses php and msssql. When an user creates a new entry and his text is too long the entry is cut short and weird characters appear at the end of the entry.
For example: http://www.ttz.uni-magdeburg.de/scripts/test-messedb/php/index.php?option=show_presse&funktion=presse_show_mitteilung&id=333
How can I set the text limit to unlimited? Could it be something else? Is there a way of splitting an entry to several text fields automatically?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me, Chris
In SQL 2012, this fails with the error message, cannot find the text qualifer for field.
To get around this, we are having to import the data into a Dirty Data column of aTEMP table, ID, Dirty Data, Clean data - perform multiple updates and change the text qualifier and ensure they are only changed in the right places so we can keep the ". In this example, we changed the text qualifier to PIPES.
After these updates, we then export the data from CLEAN data back out to CSV, then reimport it into the origional destination table with a new text qualifer.
I have a column in a table that has a type TEXT,when I pull the length of a row it returns 88222 but when I select from that column it dows not show all the text in the result set.
I'm importing an Access database to SQL Server 2000. The issue I ran into is pretty frustrating... All Memo fields that get copied over (as Text fields) appear to be fine and visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager... except when I display them on the web via ASP - everything is blank (no content at all).
I didn't have that problem with Access, so I ruled out the possibility that there's something wrong with the original data.
Is this some sort of an encoding problem that arose during database import? I would appreciate any pointers.
I am trying to populate a field in a SQL table based on the valuesreturned from using substring on a text field.Example:Field Name = RecNumField Value = 024071023The 7th and 8th character of this number is the year. I am able toget those digits by saying substring(recnum,7,2) and I get '02'. Nowwhat I need to do is determine if this is >= 50 then concatenate a'19' to the front of it or if it is less that '50' concatenate a '20'.This particular example should return '2002'. Then I want to take theresult of this and populate a field called TaxYear.Any help would be greatly apprecaietd.Mark
i've a reasonable amount of experience with MS Access and less experience with SQL Server. I've just written an .NET application that uses an SQL Server database. I need to collate lots of data from around the company in the simplest way, that can then be loaded into the SQL Server database.
I decided to collect the info in Excel because that's what most people know best and is the quickest to use. The idea being i could just copy and paste the records directly into the SQL Server database table (in the same format) using the SQL Server Management Studio, for example.
Trouble is, i have a problem with line feed characters. If an Excel cell contains a chunk of text with line breaks (Chr(10) or Chr(13)) then the copy'n'paste doesn't work - only the text up to the first line break is pasted into the SQL Server database cell. The rest is not pasted for some reason.
I've tried with MS Access too, copying and pasting the contents of a memo field into SQL Server database, but with exactly the same problem. I've tried with 'text' or 'varchar' SQL Server database field formats.
Since i've no experience of using different types of databases interacting together, can someone suggest the simplest way of transferring the data without getting this problem with the line feeds? I don't want to spend hours writing scripts/programs when it's just this linefeed problem that is preventing the whole lot just being cut'n'pasted in 5 seconds!
Can anyone point me any solution how to export a MEMO field from an Access database to a TEXT field from an MS SQL Server 2000. The import export tool from SQL server doesn't import these fields if they are very large - around 9000 characters.
Hi,I been reading various web pages trying to figure out how I can extract some simple information from the XML below, but at present I cannot understand it. I have a MS SQL 2005 database with which contains a field of type text (external database so field type cannot be changed to XML)The text field in the database is similar to the one below but I have simplified it by remove many of the unneeded tags in the <before> and <after> blocks. I also reformatted it to show the structure (original had no spaces or returns) For each text field in the SQL table contain the XML I need to know the OldVal and the NewVal. <ProductMergeAudit> <before> <table name="table1" description="Test Desc"> <product id="OldVal"> </table> </before> <after> <table name="table1" description="Test Desc"> <product id="NewVal"> </table> </after></ProductMergeAudit>
I'm having difficulty passing a date parameter in a SSIS OLEDB connection to a stored procedure using SQL command with the error message "Attempted to read or write protected memory ..." and if I create a variable, I get the error "must declare the scalar variable..". Here is the OLEDB command: "EXEC dbo.mic_TGDrop ?" where ? requires a date parameter @ReportDate. Why does the call to the stored procedure fail? What would be the correct syntax of a variable to use SQL Command from variable? The SQL BOL does not cover this; is there another resource that has a simple example? Thanks.
I am very new to using SQL. Our department usually uses Brio to query the various databases under our control. However, I have recently come against a problem that prompted me to create a custom SQL query which works well as far as it goes. My problem is looking for specific conditions in billing information I receive monthly. I would like to compare on of the date fields contained in the database with a field in the form of YYYYMM (200710, for October 2007) I have created a custom column generator that forms a date from the YYYYMM. I would like, however, do the translation on the fly and make the comparison during the query. The problem is that query without the date check returns a mass of data, only about 1 percent of which is what I want.
The beginning of the SQL query looks like this:
FROM From.T_Crs_Tran_Dtl WHERE T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Crs_Bill_Yr_Mo IN ('200710', '200711', '200712') AND ((T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Crs_Cde IN ('1G', '1V') AND (T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Dptr_Dte < LastDay(ToDate(Substr ( Crs_Bill_Yr_Mo, 5, 2 )& "/1/"&Substr ( Crs_Bill_Yr_Mo, 1, 4 )))) AND (T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Prev_Stats_Cde IN (' ', 'TK', 'TL') AND T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Cur_Stats_Cde IN ('TK', 'TL') AND T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Std_Tran_Typ_Cde='B') OR (T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Prev_Stats_Cde='UN' AND T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Cur_Stats_Cde='XX' AND€¦
It is the €ś(T_Crs_Tran_Dtl.Dptr_Dte < LastDay(ToDate(Substr ( Crs_Bill_Yr_Mo, 5, 2 )& "/1/"&Substr ( Crs_Bill_Yr_Mo, 1, 4 )))) AND€? part of the query that is just plain wrong. The business part of this statement takes the YYYYMM field and turns it into a date which is the last day of YYYYMM.
I hope someone out there can help me with making this comparison.
Hi all, I have created a global variable and it will read the user input from a web application. How can i pass this variable into OLE DB destination SQL command so that i can retrieve the user specified table? Or is there a better way to do this?
select * from TABLE where user='jacky' ,it can working,but if like this: dim name as string="jacky" select * from TABLE where user=name it won't doing,Can a variable used in SQL select command,if can,how to make it working.
Using SQL Server 7.0, I am trying to use a variable string called from a form to perform a simple query.
Here's what it looks like:
[after submitting a form on the previous page with a drop down list box titled "fiscal"]
dim strYear
strYear = Request.Form("fiscal")
sql = "SELECT * FROM VENDOR WHERE STATUS = 'P' AND '"& strYear &"';"
[where strYear is the following: PYMNT_DT > ''12/31/98'']
Records exist that meet this criteria. If the PYMNT_DT > '12/31/98' is hardcoded into the sql statement, 12 records are returned. However, when the variable string is used instead, no records are found. Any ideas on how this problem might be fixed?
This is a really simple question. When I set my variable (the one will hold my SQL Command) property "EvaluateAsExpression=True", I don't get the option to edit the expression, I was expecting to get a little button that would open the "Property Expressions Editor" if pressed.
Am I doing anything wrong? Should I edit my SQL Command somewhere else and then Copy+Paste on my variable expression?
I need to pass a ServerName as a field to my query and I'm doing that by looping through a list of servers...
Description: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "Package.Variables[User::UserVarchar1].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found.

I was not able to find the solution myself so here I am to ask you.
I'm using an Ole DB Source with the SQL command from variable.
My variable expression needs to look like this:
select * from dbo.fx_function (SomeDateVariable)
My sql server fx_function recieves as a parameter datetime, my variable SomeDateVariable is datetime type.
I tried all different types of cast on @User :: SomeDateVariable but I either can't evaluate the expression or I have errors trying to execute the package.
I read several posts on this topic and I would like to confirm my understanding.
This question has to do with parameterizing the select statement in the OLE DB Source editor. Initially, I thought I could use Data access mode: SQL command, and somehow use a user variable in there to build my Select statement.
But in researching further, it looks like I need to store the entire SQL command in a one long string variable (let's call it A), where A is built off of another variable that has my parameter. I then use A in Data access mode: SQL command from variable.
Am I correct? And is there not a way to accomplish the samething with only one variable that is your parameter value?
It seems a bit clumsy to store the entire SQL expression in a string variable.
Using Jamie's, John's and Rafae post i have got this far. My scenario demands me to do an incremental load. So i have followed your article and have created a one variable 'vDate' (Dataflow Task, Datetime, 3/3/2008) and another variable SourceSQL (Dataflow Task, String). I have set this SourceSQL evaluation to True and have added this; "select * from stagingperfdata where startdatetime = "+ (DT_WSTR,10) @[vDate].
I want to call this within a OLE DB source, so i select the data access method to SQL command from variable. My variable name is visible and i am able to select it and then save and debug. I also have a derived column transformation to increment the variable vDate by one day. The flow is successful but there is no records written to the target. I tried the same query (available in the variable's value column) in SSMS and it is retrieving 12 records. I went back to the Ole Db source and wanted to preview the data, but i get "Query timeout expired (Microsoft SQL Native Client)" error. Am i missing something fundamental?
I am attempting to write a script to add onto the end of a text field the words " -- Disposed " (About 60 rows worth). The field is a TEXT field, so unlike a varchar field I can't just use Update as shown below.
Code:
Update AR_Primary_asset Set AR_Primary_asset.description = AR_Primary_asset.description + ' -- Disposed' Where AR_Primary_Asset.ASSET_REF in ('1','2','4')
I found on the Mircosoft pages about UPDATETEXT, but this only seem to work to update one row (In the case below Asset_ref = 3, was the only row effected) .
Code:
DECLARE @Dispose binary(16) SELECT @Dispose = TEXTPTR(DESCRIPTION) FROM AR_PRIMARY_ASSET WHERE AR_Primary_Asset.ASSET_REF in ('1','2','3')
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[instructions]( [site_no] [int] NOT NULL, [instructions] [text] NULL ) Select top 3 * from instructions
Output
Site_noInstructions 20Request PIN then proceed 21Request PIN if wrong request name 22Request PIN allowed to use only numbers
All text instructions start with “Request PIN” but after that the text are different for every site_no
I need insert in all site_no rows and after the “Request PIN” the text “and codeword” keeping the current rest of text
Desired output
Site_noInstructions 20Request PIN and codeword then proceed 21Request PIN and codeword if wrong request name 22Request PIN and codeword allowed to use only numbers

I created a package scope variable to use as a sql command for a data flow task. But when I click the drop down to select it, nothing appears. Anybody else have this issue and find a solution?
First let me say that I'm new to SSIS, so be gentle with me.
I need to extract a limited set of data from a very large view in Oracle (I know, yuk!). The view contains millions of rows, but I only need the child matches of 343 unique keys in a one to many relationship. In pure SQL the query would look something like this.
Select proj, tn, rn, total FROM Oracle.view WHERE proj in (select distinct proj from MSSQL.dbo.projlist)
As you can see, this is an impossible query on many levels.
My first thought was to get the runtime list into a variable and use that variable as a parameter in the Oracle OleDb Source. Alas, the Oracle source will not allow me to add a parameter.
My second thought was to use a script component and build a SQL_Command string into a variable with all of my keys included. Then use the read_write variable as the SQL Command from variable in the Oracle Source. My attempts to construct such a variable expression have failed.
Hello all,I'm writing a site with one page that uses the session variable (User ID) to pick one user ID out of a comma separated list in the field Faculty. The default parameterized query designed in the SqlDataSource wizard only returns lines that contain an exact match:SELECT * FROM tStudents WHERE ([faculty] = @faculty) The query: SELECT * FROM tStudents WHERE ([faculty] LIKE '%userID%') works as I need when I hard code the query with a specific user ID into the SqlDataSource in the aspx page. It will not work if I leave the @faculty parameter in it:SELECT * FROM tStudents WHERE ([faculty] LIKE '%@faculty%') e.Command.Parameters works to replace the @Faculty with a user ID, but again, adding the single quote and percentage sign either causes errors or returns no results. I've tried several variations of: string strEraiderID = "'%" + Session["eRaiderID"].ToString() + "%'"; e.Command.Parameters["@faculty"].Value = strEraiderID;no results are returned, not even the lines returned with the default select query.How do generate the equivalent of SELECT * FROM tStudents WHERE ([faculty] LIKE '%userID%') into the SqlDataSource? Thanks much!

Im trying to assign the components of the 'in' field in variables, also, im not gonna know before hand how many 'in' parameters im gonna have.
