A view named "Viw_Labour_Cost_By_Service_Order_No" has been created and can be run successfully on the server.
I want to import the data which draws from the view to a table using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard.
However, when I run the wizard on the server, it gives me the following error message and stop on the step Setting Source Connection

Hello:
I am not sure how to implement the following, but I believe it entails using DTS, and hopefully it is fine that I post it here b/c ultimately I will need this backend data for my frontend .aspx pages:
On a weekly basis, I need to IMPORT some data located on a remote Oracle DB into SQL Server 2k. Since there is so much data to transfer, I would only like to transfer the data that is new to the table since the last IMPORT, i.e. a week ago and leave behin the OLD data.
Is DTS the correct way to go or do I have more control via DTS with STORED PROCEDURES? Does anyone have any good references for me?
On a similar note, once this Oracle data is IMPORTED into a certain table, I would like to EXPORT some of these NEWLY acquired rows matching certain criteria into another table for auditing purposes. For this scenario, should I implement a TRIGGER UPDATE event here on the first table?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Hello,
i want to import data from an excel sheet into a database. While reading from the excel sheet OleDb automatically guesses the Datatype of each column. My Problem is the first A Column which contains ~240 Lines. 210 Lines are Numbers, the latter 30 do contain strings. When i use this code:
Code BlockDim sConn As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & conf_path_current & file_to_import & ";Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=NO"""
Dim oConn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection(sConn)
Dim cmd1 As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("Select * From [Table$]", oConn)
Dim rdr As OleDb.OleDbDataReader = cmd1.ExecuteReader
Do While rdr.Read()
Console.WriteLine(rdr.Item(0)) 'or rdr(0).ToString
Next
it will continue to read the stuff till the String-Lines are coming.
when using Item(0), it just crashes for trying to convert a DBNull to a String, when using rdr(0).ToString() it just gives me no value.
So my question is how to tell OleDB that i want that column to be completly read as String/Varchar?
Thanks for Reading

[seems i got redirected into the wrong forum, please move into the correct one]
I'm moving data between identical tables and have to use a flat file as an intermediary. I thought: "No problem, SSIS can do a quick export to a file, then move the file to another server, then use SSIS to import the data to the new server."
Seems simple, right?
I'm hitting all sorts of surprising data conversion errors. I used the export wizard to create the export package. This works fine. However using the same flat file definition, the import package fails -- even when I have no destination. That is I have just one data flow task that contains only one control: the Flat File source. When I run the package the flat file definition fails with data type conversion and truncation errors. One of the obvious errors is for boolean types. The SQL field is a bit, SSIS defined the column as DT_BOOL, the output of the data are literal text values "TRUE" and "FALSE". So SSIS converts a sql datatype of bit to "TRUE" and "FALSE" on export, but can't make the reverse conversion on import?
Does anyone else find this surprising? I would expect that what SSIS exports, it can import given all the same table and flat file definitions. Is SSIS the wrong tool to do such simple bulk copies? I'd like to avoid using BCP because this process will need to run automatically within SQL Agent so we can leverage all the error tracking and system monitoring.
I need to periodically import a (HUGE) table of data from an external data source (not SQL Server) into SQL Server, with the following scenarios:
Some of the records in the external data source may not exist in SQL.Some of the records in the external data source may have a different value at different imports, but this records are identified univocally by the same primary key in the external datasource and in SQL Server.Some of the records in the external data source may be the same in SQL.
Due to the massive volume of the import, I would like to import only the records which are different from what I have in SQL Server (cases 1 and 2 above). In fact case 2 is the most critical.
I thought of making a query with a left outer join between the data in the external data source table (SOURCE) and the data in the SQL Server table (DESTIN). The join is done on the respective primary keys (composed keys of up to 10 columns) and one of the WHERE conditions will be that the value in SOURCE is different from the value in DESTIN.
The result of this query would be exactly what I need to import.
How to do this in SSIS??? I couldn't figure out how to join tables in different data sources yet.
In fact I cannot write a stored procedure to do that, since one of the sources is in a datasources not SQL Server.
I have seen the Lookup transformation in this article http://www.sqlis.com/default.aspx?311 but this is not exacltly what I want to do.
Another possibility is to use the merge join, but due to the sorting I believe its performances would be terrible!
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
Hi all,
It looks like these options are only available in the SQL Server Management Studio? I installed SQL Server Management Express Studio and I can't even find the DTSWizard.exe on my machine.
Can you please help how I can import data from excel or where can I download the SQL Server Management Studio?
Your prompt response is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

I have one column in SQL Server 2005 of data type VARCHAR(4000).
I have imported sql Server 2005 database data into one mdb file.After importing a data into the mdb file, above column
data type converted into the memo type in the Access database.
now when I am trying to import a data from this MS Access File(db1.mdb) into the another SQL Server 2005 database, got the error of Unicode Converting a memo data type conversion in Export/Import data wizard.
Could you please let me know what is the reason?
I know that memo data type does not supported into the SQl Server 2005.

Please help me to understans this issue correctly?
I am trying to import data from an excel Sheet to SQL Database using OPENROWSET. After import I found that all the cells containing data of more than 2000 length got truncated to  255 characters only. I tried finding the solution and found that We need to have the data with length more than 255 in first 8 rows of Excel sheet. It worked for me also. But In real scenario the data that I cant do the manual work on excel. I tried out with Dot Net utility and SSIS package also but the truncation is still the issue.
INSERT into tmp_Test
SELECT

FROM
OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0','Excel

I have data for online catalogue in SQL 7.0. The web grogrammer asked me to add a unique key for reference. I used int datatype with identity seed of 1 and increment of 1. This works fine BUT when I try to import new data I get an error because the csv file has no column and therefore no value for the unique field which will not allow null by definition.
How can I maintain a unique field to act as primary key in my data when
I want to add (and delete) data that doesn't have this field.
I tried adding the uniqueidentifier field but this gives error message.
The only work round is to delete the unigue field altogether and then add the new data and afterwards create a new unique field. At 600000 + lines of data, this is time and memory consuming
Any help appreciated,Thanks, Keith

A problem with my replication system as occured.
I have a working SQL server that can do replication trough internet, everyting works
The problem is when I try to import large amount of data (10000 rows) to my database on the SQL server
the subscriber on my client don't get the rows. That will say imported data is not being replicated.
only rows that i have manually inserted will be replicated.
I used the import wizard that came with SQL server.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Hello all, I am using the Import Wizard to pull in data from an Excel spreadsheet. One column in particular SQL Server sees as a float data type but it contains varchar data. So I change this in the wizard but some of these values are missing when I select * from Sheet1$ in SQL Server 2005. Any ideas why this would happen? I have formatted the particular column as text in Excel.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWorking with SQL 7.
I wanted to upsize an Access 97 database (serves as backend of db app so contains tables only) to SQL 7. I used Import Data from Data Transformation Services from the Tools menu. The import procedure worked well except it stashed the tables in the Master db. That's probably because I didn't create a new db to import them into.
How to recover from this is my question. It is a new install of SQL 7.

Hi!I am using SQL Server 7.0.My query goes as follows
There are two tables Table1 and Table2 both of which have a column companykey
which have PK and FK relationship
I have imported data from a *.CSV file into Table2
Table2 has many to one relationship with Table1 in the sense for each company in Table1 there can be more than 1 employees in Table2
Now I want to insert only the value of column CompanyKey from Table2 to Table1 and also some other columns values like employeekey from Table2 to regiskey column in Table1.
Now how do I do this???
I need this very urgently...
Hi,
I do a monthly import in MSSQL 2K. The file contains 7.000.000 rows. These rows are loaded in to a special (preload) database. After the import several modifications are performed before it's uploaded to production.
The importfile is a comma-seperated file, fields are enclosed by double-quotes (seems to be an issue for BCP?)
If I'm right, there are 3 options to import:
1) data transformation
2) Bulk insert
3) BCP import
Could someone give me a more detailed explanation what the differences are between those methods? What's the fastest? disadvantages?
Thanks in advance!

We have a database in sql server. Now in the front end, we have two fields called “latefee and latefeeDateReceived”. When next time the people get another late fee. They just replace the old one and enter the new one. But now we want to keep all the history. Keep whatever they get the late fee. I am thing maybe need to create another table called “latefee” to contain these value. Is is good idea? As later they may want to get a report for all the late fee in one company. The thing is, I need to retrieve the current latefee and latefeeDateReceived and import to “latefee” table. But I need to create primary key for the latefee table. How can I import? Only one thing is I can import the data first, then add primary key. If I import later, how can I import. (Explain, the data retrieved have fields called “CID, Latefee, latefeeDataReceived”. But the table “latefee” has four fields called, lateID, CID, Latefee, latefeeDateReceived. When I import, it is always failed. Anybody can give me an idea? Many thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two databases identical in structure but with different data (staging database and a production database). There is a bunch of data in the staging database that needs to be moved to the production database. The data is in two tables and a foreign key link exists between them. The ID's in the tables of both databases started with '1' and started incrementing, so if I import all the data into production, there will be duplicate ID's.
Is there an easy way to combine these tables? I'm not really a dba, but familiar enough with sql from an admin standpoint.
Thanks for any advice
Hi All,
I'm working on a DTS to import data from excel files in a SQL database. The thing is, the excel files never have the same structure, meaning, never the same number of columns,sheets as we have to define a destination table and a transformation, do you know a way to do that?
I am importing data from text files nightly and I am wondering if there is a way to have SQL recognize whether the text file has been updated before the job runs. The text files come over from our Unix box and every once in a while the transfer fails, so when this happens I don't want the SQL jobs to run because I just get duplicate data and not updated data. I don't know if this is possible, but I am just wondering. Thanks.
View 8 Replies View RelatedA little background first.
I have been taking Oracle classes to learn SQL structure and statements. I have also used that knowledge to start working with MySQL to create a pricing structure outside of our MS SQL database.
I am obviously still learning how to work with MS SQL Server 2005 and I am starting to see that there a A LOT of differences amongst the three databases.
My question begins here:
1. I want to import an excel spreadsheet to a temporary or actual table newprice (does not matter which, temp or actual). The spreadsheet contains two columns of data, A) item_id which holds all of our SKUs and B) item_prc_new which are my newly calculated and rounded prices. I am dealing with over 13000 SKUs that need to be updated and taking three days and 2 people to enter them one by one is not my cup of tea.
2. Once I have that table in the same database as our production item table (I may be forced to import it into another database named test on the same server instead of the production database as downtime is limited for that database) I want to use this statement to update those 13000 SKUs in the newprice table to the production item table using:
update item set item_prc_2 = test.newprice.item_prc_new where item.item_id in (SELECT item_id from test.newprice.item_id)
What I need to know is:
1. How to see what formatting is set on the item.item_id column so I can match it in test.newprice.item_id
2. The easiest or most efficient way to import that spreadsheet c:ewprice.xls into the test database

Hi friends,
I need to import data from oracle databse into local sql server.
The data in the oracle tables are updating very often. So I need to do this import on a scheduled basis. I saved the DTS package in my file system. How can I run this package on a schedule.
And one more thing,
How can I import data from oracle based on a query to local tables?
i.e select * from <oracle table> where updated_date >= [<date param>]
so that I will import only the recent records instead of all records every time.
Thanks in advance
I'm basically a database noob hoping to find a shortcut if at all possible.I've created an ER diagram for a site I plan to build and have used that tocreate the database in MS SQL 2000.Now I want to import various data from (basically) excel spreadsheets (forexample, company names from a different sql dbase, addresses from excel andphone numbers from a csv file) into the new database.I have tried various methods outlined on web sites (including DTS) and havelearned I need to go back and create default values for essentially everynon-null field if I am to update literally any linked table.My question is this: Is there any easy way/program via which I can importthe data to two different tables -- i.e. address into one table andcorresponding city into another table -- and have the relationship(s)continue?Or alternatively is there a "better/easy" way to do it inside sql once Iimport the entire data into it's own single table?Not to belabor the point (versus to more fully explain), but say I have twodata sets[ Company Name | Address ]and[ Company Name | Phone ]and I want to import them both into a database with separate three tables:1. Company Name2. Address3. PhoneWhat is the least labour intensive way to effect this??Thanks in advance
