I would like to check if the incoming date is valid date and i would also like to check if the date exists in my database.
i am transfering data from a flat file so all the data is string data.
How would i assign the datatype to the incoming columns as they exists in the sql table.Because it would better when i try to compare my incoming columns with the once in my database.
Here when i have a lookup transform and try to map one of my columns with string datatype to a column in my sql table of datatype date time i get a datatype mismatch error. How do i need to check if its date time...and how can i check if the incoming date is valid date.
Hi, ppleI am trying to check dates. I tried something like this but it doesn't work. Dim strarray As Array Try Dim my As New Database my.OpenConn() Dim d As SqlDataReader Dim dr2 As SqlDataReader d = my.ExecuteQuery("Select lastLogin, ID from Student") While d.Read Dim ld As DateTime = d("lastLogin") If ld > FormatDateTime(Now) Then strarray() = strarray() + d("ID") End If End While d.Close() dr2 = my.ExecuteQuery("Insert into Audit (auditID, ID, auditMsg, updatedDate) values ('200','20','" & strarray() & "','" & FormatDateTime(Now) & "');") dr2.Close() my.CloseConn() Catch x As Exception Debug.WriteLine(x) End Try
I've been ehre off and on when I've needed help. And I know someone answered my question last time with the exact info I needed. But I seem to have lost the query I saved.
I pretty much need a query that can filter a field I have adn pull up any records that are not in in date format. My current field is text and I'm trying to convert it over to DateTime but am getting stuck. Seems at least one of the records does not have a date format.
Hi I need to have a second copy of our databse on another server as backup if something will happen to the first one. I couldn´t get the sql replication or database mirror to work ( I think the problem i that both servers are running in a workgroup an dnot in a domaine) and now I try to solved my problem with an automatic restore of the full backup (a new full backup is running every night) but now I need a function to check if todays date is the same as a part of the backupfilename and is it possible to do that as a step in the sqlagentjob i have create?
First I want to thank everyone that has given help to me and everyone else with the issues involving migrating to 2005... Thanks alot..
Now for the problem. I am looking for (an not finding anything of help) to check the date of a file on an ftp server. A file always exists but once a month the day changes. I would just download the file and check it locally but the files are several hundred megs in size so that would be inefficient.
So is there anyway to do that??
On another note, can anyone point me to a good resource for learning the scripting language that SSIS uses??
How would I go about checking incoming e-mails? For example, on a certain e-mail address, I would get e-mails formatted in a certain way. According to the response, some scripts need to run/ some sql tables updates etc. How can one do this in (ASP) .NET with SQL Server? Anyone did this kind of stuff before?
Hi guys,I have written a stored procedure to check for date range, say if the user enters a value for 'city-from' , 'city-to', 'start-date' and end-date, this stored procedure should verify these 2 dates against the dates stored in the database. If these 2 dates had already existed for the cities that they input, the stored procedure should return 1 for the PIsExists parameter. Below's how I constructed the queries: 1 ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.DateCheck 2 @PID INTEGER = -1 OUTPUT, 3 @PCityFrom Char(3) = '', 4 @PCityTo Char(3) = '', 5 @PDateFrom DATETIME = '31 Dec 9999', 6 @PDateTo DATETIME = '31 Dec 9999', 7 @PIsExists BIT = 1 OUTPUT 8 AS 9 10 CREATE TABLE #TmpControlRequst 11 ( 12 IDINTEGER, 13 IsExistsCHAR(1) 14 ) 15 /*###Pseudo 16 1. Check the Date From and Date To 17 -- select all the value equal to parameter cityFrom and cityTo 18 -- insert the selection records into tmp table 19 --*/ 20 INSERT INTO #TmpControlRequst 21 (ID, IsExists) 22 SELECT ID, 23 IsExists = CASE WHEN DateFrom <> '31 Dec 9999' AND DateTo <> '31 Dec 9999' 24 AND @PDateFrom <= DateFrom AND @PDateFrom <= DateTo 25 AND @PDateTo >= DateFrom AND @PDateTo <= DateTo THEN 1 26 WHEN DateFrom <> '31 Dec 9999' AND DateTo <> '31 Dec 9999' 27 AND @PDateFrom >= DateFrom AND @PDateFrom <= DateTo 28 AND @PDateTo >= DateFrom AND @PDateTo <= DateTo THEN 1 29 WHEN DateFrom <> '31 Dec 9999' AND DateTo <> '31 Dec 9999' 30 AND @PDateFrom >= DateFrom AND @PDateFrom <= DateTo 31 AND @PDateTo >= DateFrom AND @PDateTo >= DateTo THEN 1 32 WHEN DateFrom <> '31 Dec 9999' AND DateTo <> '31 Dec 9999' 33 AND @PDateFrom <= DateFrom AND @PDateFrom <= DateTo 34 AND @PDateTo >= DateFrom AND @PDateTo >= DateTo THEN 1 35 ELSE 0 END 36 FROM RequestTable 37 WHERE ID <> @PID 38 AND CityFrom = @PCityFrom 39 AND CityTo = @PCityTo 40 41 --======== FINAL RESULT 42 -- For tmp table:- 43 -- isExists = 1 ==> date lapse 44 -- isExists = 0 ==> date ok 45 -- if count for (isExists = 1) in tmp table is > 0 then return 1 and data not allow for posting 46 SELECT @PIsExists = CASE WHEN COUNT(*) > 0 THEN 1 47 ELSE 0 END 48 FROM #TmpControlRequst 49 WHEREIsExists = 1 50 51 SELECT @PIsExists 52 --========= 53 54 DROP TABLE #TmpControlRequst 55 56 --========= 57 RETURN(0)However, when I run this stored procedure, 'PIsExists' would always return -1. I am positive that the values that I passed in, had already existed in the database. Any idea what might be causing this problem? Thanks in advance
I'm about ready to pull my hair out. I have a repeater control, and a date field. If the field is a valid date, I'll use it to calculate and display the person's age. Otherwise, I want to display "N/A". My problem is trying to determine if the date field is null or not.I'm using SQL Server 2005 which allows Nulls in the date field, and for many records I don't have a birth date. It makes sense for these records to leave the date Null. This is my code:Protected Sub Repeater1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.RepeaterItemEventArgs) Handles Repeater1.ItemDataBound If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item OrElse e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then Dim LabelIcon As Label = CType(e.Item.FindControl("LabelIcon"), Label) Dim LblAge As Label = CType(e.Item.FindControl("LblAge"), Label) Dim inmate As WAP.prisonmembersRow = CType(CType(e.Item.DataItem, System.Data.DataRowView).Row, WAP.prisonmembersRow) If System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath("~/images/picts/" & inmate.FILE2 & ".jpg")) Then LabelIcon.Visible = True End If If inmate.DATE_OF_BIRTH Is DBNull.Value Then If IsDate(inmate.DATE_OF_BIRTH) Then LblAge.Text = "Age: N/A" Else LblAge.Text = "Age: " & GetBirthdate(inmate.DATE_OF_BIRTH) End If End If End IfEnd Sub How can I resolve this?Diane
Basically, I have a membership table that lists each member with an effective period, Eff_Period, that indicates a month when a member was active. So, if a member is active from Jan to Mar, there will be three rows with Eff_Periods of 201501, 201502 and 201503.
All well and good.But, a member may not necessarily have continuous months for active membership. They might have only been active for Jan, Feb and Jun. That would still give them three rows, but with noncontinuous Eff_Periods; they'd be 201501, 201502 and 201506.There is also a table that logs member activity. It has an Activity_Date that holds the date of the activity - betcha didn't see that comin'. What I'm trying to do is determine if an activity took place during a period when the member was active.
My original thought was to count how many rows a member has in the Membership table and compare that number to the number of months between the MIN(Eff_Period) and the MAX(Eff_Period). If the numbers didn't matchup, then I knew that the member had a disconnect somewhere; he became inactive, then active again. But, then I thought of the scenario I detailed above and realized that the counts could match, but still have a discontinuity.So, is there a nifty little SQL shortcut that could determine if a target month is contained within a continuous or discontinuous list of months?
I am facing below problems in migrating my DTS packages to SSIS. Could any one answer this ?
1.How to do Tranformations based on condition.Earlier in DTS we are using Activex. For ex:
if isDate(DTSSource("Due Date")) then DTSDestination("Due_Date") = DTSSource("Due Date") end if
I am using script component with below logic:
If Not Row.Due_Date_IsNull Then
If IsDate(Row.Due_Date) Then
Row.Due_Date= Row.EntryDate
End If
End If
Is that correct ? 2.My flat file is having 37 columns.But I am able to see only 21 columns;First 20 columns are showing correctly and remaining data is showing in 21st column.delimiter is semicolon; Any guess ?
I have a column say 'ActivationDate' which is a (database timestamp [DT_DBTIMESTAMP]) which I want to replace with an expression in derived columns
The condition is if 'ActivationDate' field is null or '' then 'Null' else 'ActivationDate'
I am struggling to write this condition. Without condition i.e. at present it saves the value in this database '1753-01-01 00:00:00.000'. In the preview the 'ActivationDate'field does not show any thing so I recon it is either null or ''
Are there methods to redirect incoming data to different tables on the fly in the situation when application feeds data to the table via ODBC and I'm unable to alter ODBC or application settings? Kind regards, A.
I'm making some sort of application where people can add their resume. They also need something to add places where they have worked or currently are working.
I have a form where they can add this and i add this experience using the following stored procedure:
GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO create procedure [dbo].[sp_Insert_Experience] @ExperienceId uniqueidentifier, @ExperienceEmployee nvarchar(100), @ExperienceFrom datetime, @ExperienceUntil datetime, @ExperienceQualifications nvarchar(250), @ExperienceTechnologies nvarchar(250), @ExperienceTasks nvarchar(250) as insert into Experiences values(@ExperienceId,@ExperienceEmployee,@ExperienceFrom,@ExperienceUntil,@ExperienceQualifications, @ExperienceTechnologies,@ExperienceTasks);
It must be possible to add the place where they currently are working. Then the ExperienceUntil has to be something like still going on. Then I decided that the user then had to set the current date.
But what I want is the following, I want that the ExperienceUntil keeps updating automatically, like everytime i get that record, it has to have current date.
Is this possible ?
But if the ExperienceUntil isn't the current date , it just had to take the supplied parameter date.
Ok, I'm not quite sure how to approach this one. This is a VB.NET console app in which I want to capture each row and throw it into a table. The reason being, they want a report on what was processed...which I'll be able to do easily in Reporting Services 2005 once this crap is in a table where it should be. 1) What should I use to do this, dataset? I want to use stored procedures also, not inline SQL Function here takes an incoming file, and splits it up into separate files. I want to insert each row that is succesfully split Public Sub ProcessFiles(ByVal sIncomingfile As String, ByVal sOutputDirectory As String) If sIncomingfile <> "" And sOutputDirectory <> "" Then Dim f As New Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission(Security.Permissions.PermissionState.None) f.AllLocalFiles = Security.Permissions.FileIOPermissionAccess.Read Dim file As New IO.FileInfo(sIncomingfile) Dim filefs As IO.FileStream = Nothing If file.Exists Then Try filefs = New IO.FileStream(file.FullName, IO.FileMode.Open) 'Place: 1 Catch ex As Exception SendEmail("Incoming .mnt or .naf Filename Invalid or not found", "Place: 1") Application.Exit() End Try End If Dim reader As New IO.StreamReader(filefs) Dim counter As Integer = 0 Dim CurrentFS As IO.FileStream Dim CurrentWriter As IO.StreamWriter Dim extension As String = IO.Path.GetExtension(file.FullName) If extension = ".mnt" Then While Not reader.Peek < 0 Dim Line As String = reader.ReadLine If IsNumeric(Line.Substring(0, 1)) Then Dim Parts() As String = Line.Split(" "c) ' split row into parts If Parts(0).Length = 8 Then ' if first part is 8 then know we hit another header so cut and then write to file counter += 1 If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.Flush() : CurrentWriter.Close() CurrentFS = New IO.FileStream(IO.Path.Combine(IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(sOutputDirectory), Line.Substring(59, 4) & "[" & counter.ToString & "]" & Now.ToString("MM-dd-yyyy") & IO.Path.GetExtension(file.FullName)), IO.FileMode.Create) CurrentWriter = New IO.StreamWriter(CurrentFS) End If If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.WriteLine(Line) End If End If End While If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.Flush() : CurrentWriter.Close() MoveFilesFTP(sOutputDirectory, "mnt") ElseIf extension = ".naf" Then While Not reader.Peek < 0 Dim Line As String = reader.ReadLine If Not IsNumeric(Line.Substring(0, 1)) Then ' if first part is not a number, then we know it's a header so split the file counter += 1 If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.Flush() : CurrentWriter.Close() CurrentFS = New IO.FileStream(IO.Path.Combine(IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(sOutputDirectory), Line.Substring(6, 4) & "[" & counter.ToString & "]" & Now.ToString("MM-dd-yyyy") & IO.Path.GetExtension(file.FullName)), IO.FileMode.Create) CurrentWriter = New IO.StreamWriter(CurrentFS) End If If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.WriteLine(Line) End If End While If Not CurrentWriter Is Nothing Then CurrentWriter.Flush() : CurrentWriter.Close() MoveFilesFTP(sOutputDirectory, "naf") End If Else 'input file not valid SendEmail("Incoming .mnt or .naf Filename Invalid", "Place: 1") End If End Sub
This is on SQL Server 2008. Please find a detailed description and the file of the data, that I am working on.
Requirements:
1. If 'Channel' is not equal to "Omnibus" where the 'Trans Description'is equal to "Purchase" and "Redemption" for one purchase and one redemption that match on 'System' , 'Account TA Number' , 'Product Name' , 'Settled Date' , and where the 'Trade Amount' of the purchase and redemption is within 5%, then display those set of records.
2. If deemed wash trades, allow user to update the purchase and redemption pair 'Trans Description' from "Purchase" to "Exchange In" and 'Trans Description' from "Redemption" with "Exchange out"

ProdName Amount TranType P1 100 A P1 100 S P2 200 A P2 205 S
In case the ProdName is same, and Amount = or (within +/- 5%) of Amount, I have to update the TranType column as IN/OUT respectively as shown below in the tables.
I am okay with using 2 different tables if needed as in the records comes in one table and then i can reference that table to upload the values in another.
ProdName Amount TranType P1 100 IN P1 100 OUT P2 200 IN P2 205 OUT
The order of the records coming in can be different order, they need not be subsequent.
I receive the input file with some 100 columns and some 20k+ rows and I want to check the incoming input row is existed in the database or not based on 2 key columns. If the row is existed then I need to check all the columns (nearly 100 columns) values in input and the database are equal or not. If both are equal I need to treat them seperately if not there is a seperate logic. How Can I do that check for each row and for each column?
Basically the algorithm is like this, if the input file row is not existed in the database then treat that as new row else if the input row is existed in the database then check all the columns are equal or not. If all the columns are equal then treat that as existing row and do nothing else if some columns are not equal then treat this row seperately.
I found some thing to achieve the above thing. 1. Take the input row and check in the database. 2. If the row is not found in the database then treat it as new row. 3. If row is found in the database then a) Take the source row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns b) Take the database row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns c) Find out the hash code for the 2 strings and then compare hash codes for equal.
The disadvantage of this is running a loop 2*m*n times where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns. It should be done 2 times for input file row and database row.
Can anybody suggest a good method to do this?
What does the function "GetHashCode" for InputBuffer in method "Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)" will do? Will it generates hash code based on all the columns values?
I've read the other posts related to this issue, but I'm just REALLY confused as to whats happening in my case. Like everyone else it was working fine in SQL 2000 but now in SQL 2005 there is an issue. I'm calling a stored procedure with parameters defined like this:
When I execute the call to the stored proc I get this:
"The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 8 ("@BaseDebit"): The supplied value is not a valid instance of data type numeric. Check the source data for invalid values. An example of an invalid value is data of numeric type with scale greater than precision."
Using the VS.NET command window I then inspect that parameter to see what the heck is going on and get this:
So I set a decmial parameter to 1,000,000, that parameter in the DB is defined as decimal(28,13) so should fit no problem, but it seems the Sql data provider is confused and thinks 1,000,000 is decimal (0,22)???
We are doing a review of a SQL 2008 server. Though we can identify what are the linked servers to the database.
However is there a sure shot way to identify, incoming DB links to the database server. I know the successful connections are easy to identify, but I wish to know all possible incoming DB links to server.
Will the DB logs support in identifying all attempted and successful DB link connections.
I need to set up create a package so that I could check the date of the files posted in a folder, e.g. H:source. If there is no file created later than one day exists, then continue to check again one hour later. If files do exists, then copy then to c:dest and then upzip the files. Once this is done, sent an notification email to user@mydomain.com.
i am dealing with around 14000 rows which need to be put into the sql destination.,But what i see is that the order of the rows in the desination is not the same as in the source,
