I'm building a simple SSIS that t reads data from a flat file and appends it to a table. The problem is that the file has no headers and it has a considerable amount of columns.
I need to make a column mapping between "column 1" in the file and the actual column name in the table.
To avoid doing it one by one, I was thinking on introducing a script in the data pipeline to change the aliases of the columns of the file.
The problem is the script designer is in VB and I'm not proficient with that.
Can any one tell me what is the VB statement to change the name of the column, or educate me on an alternative way to do it?
This was easy in sql2000 but I can't find a way to do it in sql2005
We will be moving 2 different databases (SS2005 & SS2008) to a new SS2014 SQL Server. Currently our codes looks something like Server1DBInstance1... & Server2DBInstance2... Is it possible to move the objects from these 2 instances to Server3DBInstance3 and then use an alias to reference the objects? Or does Server3 need to have DBInstance1 & DBIstance2? Basically, is the alias just for the database or for the instance too? Can I create an alias "Server1DBInstance1' on Server3DBInstance3 and assign objects to that alias?
I have a query from an ACCESS database that I want to move over to SISS, but it will not run and says the syntax is wrong. How to correct the syntax on the query below?
ACCESS Query:
UPDATE PROPERTYOWNERS INNER JOIN PROPERTYOWNERS AS PROPERTYOWNERS_1 ON PROPERTYOWNERS.gislink = PROPERTYOWNERS_1.gislink SET PROPERTYOWNERS.mixedownership = "MIXED" WHERE (((PROPERTYOWNERS_1.secondaryclass)<>[PROPERTYOWNERS]![secondaryclass]));
I want to create column name dynamically in select list.
create table #temp(name varchar(10), sale int) insert into #temp values('john',1000) insert into #temp values('Mike',500) insert into #temp values('Abhas',200) select name,sale as sale from #temp
Now i want change column alias only , not value. I need to concatenate sale with year value of getdate(). i.e. column header concatenation only, not a output value.
I don't know if anyone is interested, but I was just struggling over an issue with a custom SSIS Control Flow Task and found that all referenced objects also have to be in the GAC to be able to create the custom object in the ssis designer. I guess that makes sense, but I searched all over for any reference to this error, and couldn't find anything. Hopes this sense for someone else!
I need to use FTP task in DTS ( or any other way), but the problem is, the source file name is not constant. It changes every day with a date extension appended to the file name, like PO_2002_6_12_PM.zip. How do I create a task task to grab this file daily as a scheduled task? Any help is appreciated. thanks. Di.
I simply want an email to go out if any records in a table exist, else no email. I have other steps completed in this DTS job but this is the last step. Any ideas?
I've gone through all the steps, and when I finally drag the custom task I've made into the control flow, I get the error

I have created a Web service and I want to call a single method from it to extract data. For this reason I use the SSIS "Web Service Task" . The problem is that the xml output file from the web service task does not look in the proper way. When I invoke my web service method in the browser the result looks like the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <ArrayOfBooking xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"> - <Booking> <BookingDate>2007-04-12T15:19:01.6736072+03:00</BookingDate> <FlightDate>2007-04-12T15:19:01.6736072+03:00</FlightDate> </Booking> - <Booking> <BookingDate>2007-04-12T15:19:01.6736072+03:00</BookingDate> <FlightDate>2007-04-12T15:19:01.6736072+03:00</FlightDate> </Booking> </ArrayOfBooking>
but when I use the web service task , the xml file produced, looks like the following:
My problem is that I cannot create a xsd schema for the xml file output from the "web service task", and because of this I cannot insert the data in the xml file into the Database, because the xsd schema is reqired by the XML Source which I use in my DataFlow task for inserting the data. Do you have any ideas how to solve this strange problem?
I need to create a Table using the SQL Task and a Variable as the Table Name
I am getting an Error: "Syntax error or access violation". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
The SQL Statement that I am using is Create Table ? (ColumnA char(5) Null)
I have a package that i want to move between enviroments. Therefor i need to create a package that creates all my tables on the new server.
like
-- "if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[table]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [table] GO"
The case is that i have around 30 tables, and my question is therefore
I know that you can create the drop and create script for one table at the time in the SQL Server Management Studio, but is there an easier way to do this

This also happens if I create a new SSIS project and try to add a data flow. I have SQL 2005 Service pack 2 loaded and it's running on Windows Server 2003 with the latest service packs.
This was working a few weeks ago and then quit? Any ideas?
I'm having a bit of a problem implementing a File System Task to Create a directory and would appreciate some help if possible.
I want to create a date directory so I can move files to once they are imported successfully. The date portion for the directory comes from the import file whose name is variable and in the format of PerfLog_<yyyymmdd>.aud. So, in essence, if I am processing a file named Perflog_20060913.aud, when I am done processing it I want to create a directory c:myprog20060913 and move my processed file there.
I need to create excel workbook "SalesData.xlsx', which should have worksheet "POS". After creating excel file in specific location, script should be able to format cells as well.For instance, first two column type should be numbers. Here are the columns:
ColumnName : Type Id : Number AccountNumber : Number Name: Text Address: Text
Also, it checks for existing file . If it exist, then overwrite the file.
In order to provide runtime, realtime, graphical feedback to ETL operators, I am planning to open a new winform when my packages start, and update the form via polling of events.
It is my understanding that this means I need to create a new thread for the winform from within the script task. Anyone done this via script task yet? Any reason why this couldn't work or shouldn't be done from the script task?
Would I be better off writing the winform app completely seperately and simply call it from an "execute process" task?

I have a simple Control Flow setup that checks to see if a particular table exists. If the table does not exists, the table is created in an alternate path, if it does exist, the table is truncated before moving to a file import Data Flow that uses an OLE DB Destination to output the imported data.
My problem is, that I get OLE DB package errors if the table the OLE DB Destination Container references does not exist when I load the package.
How can I over come this issue? I need to be able to dynamically create the table in an earlier step, then use that table to import data into in a later step in the workflow.
Is there a switch I can use to turn off checking in the OLE DB Destination Container so that it will allow me to hook up the table creation step?
Seems like this would be a common task...
Steps:
1. Execute SQL Task to see if the required table exists 2. Use expresions to test a variable to check the results of step 1 3. If table exists, truncate the table and reload it from file in Data Flow using OLE DB Destination 4. If table does not exist, 1st create it, then follow the normal Data Flow
OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
We have an alias for dbo in various code areas, development/test/production. It was easy to tell the DBO alias on release 6.5 but now on 7.0, the only way I can figure out if the userid is aliased to dbo is to sign on as the userid and query 'select user_name( )' and if it returns dbo, I have the answer. Is there an easier way to do this by looking in a system catalog or is there something else I am missing? Thanks in advance. Karen Suenram
In 6.5 you could alias someone as dbo, thus preventing an ownership chain break. In 7.0 there are roles, one of which is db_owner. I gave a user db_owner role, and they created a table. But no one else can see it? And he is listed as the owner in EM. How do I more effectivly mimic the dbo alias available in 6.5?
I am trying to filter my result with HAVING clause. vchEditorName is an alias which I get in the result as a column (it gives me correct values). I want to select only those records which have the value in this field like 'akash'

Hi All, I've just installed an active/active sql cluster. Both are named instance hence if i need to connect to it, I need to use NODE1SQLINST1 and NODE2SQLINST2. Is there a way to just use NODE1 or any other single name to connect to the sql instance? I was looking at Alias but I can't get it working. Anyone has any ideas or suggestion for me? Reason why i want to do this is in an odbc connection, instead of using NODE1SQLINST1, I can use NODE1. Thanks
pls someone help me about adding alias column or column alias

Hi, In my database one user is aliased like a guest. When i run sp_helpuser on the particular database it is giving following result.
username login name database -------- ----------- -------- aaaa NULL XYZ
NOrmally we fill see like this for GUEST User. Now i want to drop this user 'aaaa' only. IF i use sp_dropuser 'null' i think guest user will also drop from XYZ database. So can anyone pls suggest me how to drop this user. I have to add a same user with full permissions. i know in 65 we have sysalternates table gives all alias information. Is there any table gives the same information in sql7. Pls suggest me regarding this.
I am just getting started with SQL Sever 7.0, most things are must easier and simpler. I do have one mind set problem With SQL 6.5 I created a logon(JAWS) , aliased the developers to the logon(JAWS) and all the tables and other objects were owned by ((JAWS). The developers would then grant access to the tables. And the users would open JAWS.tablename. In the SQL 7.0 test are I take an NT group that have the devlopers in them and allow SQL SErver logon for that group. Then I allow the group access to the database and give the group database roles of db_owner, db_ddladmin, db_datareader and db_datawriter. The developers can create objects but the objects are not owned by the role but are owned by the indivudual NT accounts that are in the NT group. Any hint of what to change to have the ownership show up as the NT group??
