Hello All,
I have created a database on my local machine using SQL Server Express 2005. I am trying to export data from an excel file into a table in this database but when i see tasks available for the database there is no option of import data like I assume there should.
Only the following options are visible.
Detach
Shrink
Back Up
Restore
Generate Scripts
Any solutions on how I can get my excel file into the table.

I just inherited a few Servers that have SQL Server 2000.
I cant find the new query Icon?

Hello,
I have several reports that use parameters that I have defined as multi-value. When I am designing the reports I see the "(Select All)" option listed first in each parm control that has the multi-value property set true. However, when the same reports are deployed to our server and viewed through Report Manager, the "(Select All)" option is missing. I need the "(Select All)" to be present.
I've seen some discussion of a service pack. Could this be the problem? What do we need to do to get our "(Select All)" back?
Thanks,

I have a query. Here are the steps:
1. I created a maintenance plan using Visual Studio 2013 (nothing fancy pretty basic)
2. Using ssms 2014 I imported it (the dtsx file) under the Integration Services and it appeared there successfully
3. I connected to the Database Engine again using ssms 2014 - my expectation was to see it under the Management > Maintenance Plans folder but it was not present.
hi all,

I want to start the SSIS wizard to import data from a flat file, but I right click the DB > select Task and the Import and Export options are not there. Is there something I have to enable before the options show up
Thanks
Hi,
I just installed SQL Server 2005 Express. I would like to import tables from
another DB, and I read in the help files that I just need to (1) right-click on
a non-system database in Management Studio Express, and (2) select Import/Export
under the Tasks menu.
I tried this, but my Tasks menu only contains these options: Detach, Shrink,
Backup, Restore, Generate Scripts.
I googled for "sql server 2005 "no import" tasks", and it appears that a
couple of people have had this problem -- the only solution I read was to
install the "Workstation Components," but I already have, and still no luck.
Any idea what I need to do? Thanks!
After my upgrade from MSDE SP 4 to SQL express (backup and restore) my application will not see the data any more.
If I use my application (VB Dot.NET 1.x ; DB= SQL Express) to add new data (rows) this new rows are visible.
Both old and new datas are seen in SQL management studio express.
If i add rows with the SQL management studio express the appliction will not see this rows.
In both cases I connect with sa - account. (Administrator even doesn't work). I search for any restrictions on row basis but i wonder why the management tool display all rows.
Any ideas!
I recently imported some Access tables into SQL Server. I can go into enterprise manager and return all rows and the data is there.
I build an ASP page to edit the data. After the connection the data for the record is displayed in a form. For some reason some fields are not coming through?
Is this a problem when converting to SQL Server. It just doesn't make sense that the table in Enterprise manager says the field is populated but when I do a pull via ASP the data doesn't come through.
Does anyone know anything about this?
Any help or pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JW

hello,
I have written a Custom Data Processing Extension for SSRS 2005.
The Report Server is in SharePoint integrated mode, this works perfect except for the extension.
When I want to set a DataSource in SharePoint (WSS 3.0), the extension is not in the ComboBox.
This works well on another server with the same extension.
The DLL file of that extension is copied in the reportserver bin folder.
I have added the references in the rsreportserver.config and rssrvpolicy.config (see below).
Code Snippetrsreportserver.config
<Data>
<Extension Name="SPSLISTS" Type="ICom.ReportingServices.SharepointListsExtension.Connection,
ICom.ReportingServices.SharepointListsExtension" />
<Data>
Code Snippet
rssrvpolicy.config
This code is located inside the CodeGroup with Name="SharePoint_Server_Strong_Name".
<CodeGroup class="UnionCodeGroup"
version="1"
PermissionSetName="FullTrust"
Name="SPSLISTS_CodeGroup"
Description="Code group for my SPS LISTS data processing extension">
<IMembershipCondition class="UrlMembershipCondition"
version="1"
Url="D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerinICom.ReportingServices.SharepointListsExtension.dll"
/>
</CodeGroup>
I already tried re-installing Reporting Services and the add-in for SharePoint but the problem remains.
Does anyone has an idea of what's wrong here?
Thanks in advance,
Tom
I have configured master data services in my DB server and when i am going to explorer the entities and respected data by using navigating as below
[URL] -->Click to Explorer
I am able to select data for only one default entity, in entities drop down is getting hidden back side , please find below snap to clearance.
Note: I am using Internet explorer (11.0.9600.17239) to browse the solution.
I've used the Balanced Data Distributor with Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2012 successfully. I've now installed BIDS 2013 and I'm trying to get the Balanced Data Distributor to appear again in the SSIS Toolbox.
I've installed the x86 and x64 version and it won't appear. I've tried the new version which is supposed to have a fix for some SQL Server 2008 issues but I get the message:
The installation is not successful. Check the following prerequisites: 1. Either Integration Services or BIDS has to be installed. 2. The version of these components has to be either SQL Server 2008 SP2 (or future SPs) or SQL Server 2008 R2 (or future SPs).
That seems this version only works for SQL Server 2008.
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
Operation stopped...

Hi everyone In my SqlServer Management Studio Express, on start up it shows the server type option, but greyed.So that value is fixed to database engine. ( I'm trying to work on an SqlServer Compact Edition database through the SSMStudiothat's why I'm trying to get this to change.)Besides, after I connect i go to the Object Explorer, expand the server node, and go to Replication.When i expand replication, i get the "Local Subscription" option, but nothng for Publication.( I want to work on Merge Replication, that's why I desparately need Publication to work)Am i missing something here? I did not install SqlServer separately, I only have what comes bundled with the Visual Studio 2005 Setup.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello:
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!
Can I force the following measure to be visible for all rows in a pivot table?
Sales Special Visibility:=IF(
HASONEVALUE(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany])
;IF(
VALUES(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) = "Sales"
;CALCULATE([Sales];ALL(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]))
;[Sales]
)
;BLANK()
)
FYI, I also have other measures as well in the pivot table that I don't want to affect.
I'm in VS 2005 trying to access a database running on MS Sql Server Express 2005 (local machine). In VS i choose Data | Connect to Database | and then i select change on the Add Connection Dialogue box. For some reason I'm only given two options which are the following:
MS Access Database File or MS SQL Server Database file. I've seen options in books showing MS SQL Server but that doesn't show as one of my options. I'm running the Server express locally and can access it through my Management Studio Express as localmachinesqlexpress.
Is this a limitation of Express or do i need to adjust some options in the IDE?
Any help would be great.

i have installed MSDE 2000 and Microsoft SQL Web Data Administrator.
at first i login using Windows Integrated option and created an account for sql login.
but when i tried to login using newly created account i get the following error.
Invalid username and/or password, you are using a windows login that is not your own, or server does not exist.
i am using XP SP2.
Within SQL Management Studio, when I try to add a data driven subscription to a report, the "New Data Driven Subscription.." option is disabled. I've checked all the listed prerequisites and feel that they are OK. The "New Subscription..." is enabled.
Has anyone experienced this?
I was getting the product error associated with the full version of SSIS not installed so I ran the installation again and selected the Integration Services check box.
Now when attempting to import data into a database, the drop down list doesn't have a flat file option.
How do I import data from a txt, csv file?
Thanks

Hi Sql gurus :))I've got a question that I couldn't find a satisfying answer on the net.What is the difference between:1) running sql query (select from sth with nolock) with no transaction2) running sql query (select from sth) withing a TransactionScope with option Read Uncommitted dataBasically, both should do the same work. However is anyone aware of any potential problems using any of both approaches ?We use 1) to improve our web application scalability since the system works in such a way that any selects and updates on that table (sth) do not interfere with one another.However, updates are done in a TransactionScope. And when having simultaneous select with nolock and update in a Transaction scope (the select statement has a where clause and returns records that are not updated by the update statement). However sometimes ( we still cannot figure it out when) the select statement returns some records twice.For example, the select should return 1000 records , but (sometimes) it returns 1002 records ( the extra 2 records are copies of some of the original 1000 records).Removing the nolock, makes the problem does not appear - but i want to be 100% sure that nolock is our troublemaker. And if it is - why ?We also have a problem that this particular nolock select sometimes return even less records than it should.I know it sounds impossible but it happens.So anyone who has experience with select with nolock, please share :)Thanks in advance, Yani
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I started a new job recently and have noticed a few strange configurations. Typically I would never mess with min memory per query option and index create memory option configuration because i just haven't seen any need to. My typical thought is that if it isn't broke... They have been modified on every single server in my environment.
From Books Online:
• This option is an advanced option and should be changed only by an experienced database administrator or certified SQL Server technician.
• The index create memory option is self-configuring and usually works without requiring adjustment. However, if you experience difficulties creating indexes, consider increasing the value of this option from its run value.
I am running the following ENTERPRISE version of SQL Server, I am admin on the box and do not have the New data-driven Subscription showing up on the Subscription tab.
Does anyone have any ideas why?

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.
I am with SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with SP2.
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
12.0;Database=D:Book1.xlsx', [Sheet1$])
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
