Importing Text File: How To Dynamically Change The Row Delimiter

Jul 22, 2004

Hi,

I have a dts package that imports a number of text files into a SQL Server 2000 database table. The package has been set up to accept a text file with a row delimiter of carriage return and line feed ({CR}{LF}). Some of the text files I receive only have a line feed ({LF}) as the row delimiter and the dts package fails the file. Is there an activex script i can use that will scan the file and change the row delimiter as required?

i was going to use the filesystemobject which allows me to read a line at a time, however the Readline method doesn't read the new line character. The text files are too big to read into one variable and then do a replace.

Any help would be appreciated

I am using SQL Server 2000 SP3, Windows Server 2000 and Windows XP Professional. All systems are fully patched

Regards Justin

Dynamically Importing Csv File Into MS SQL

Feb 14, 2007

I have an app written in delphi v5 with a MS SQL Database and I'm struggling with an import feature i need

The user needs a function to import Contact data from a txt/csv file into the Contact Table

Details of feature:
the user enters the different parameters into the Delphi app e.g.
File Location
Files Includes Column Headings or not
Whether the file Comma or Tab Seperated
Mapping the fields

Then i need to use those parameters and run some sort of import routine putting the data into the specific table.

The tables consists of 3 fields - First Name, Surname, Mob Number - but these fields can be in any order in the file. for example Col 1 (in file) needs to go into Field 3 in DB. this is sorted in the Mapping Fields above

How do I do this using MS SQL??

I've been looking at using the BULK INSERT command e.g
BULK INSERT Contact
FROM 'C:Import_data.csv'
WITH
{
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = ''
}
but at the minute i just get error -
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Syntax error or access violation.

Is this the correct command to use??

Do you know any websites that can point me in the right direction??

Change Flat File Source Dynamically

May 21, 2007

I am a relative newbie to SSIS. I have been tasked with writing packages to import data from our clients. We have about 100 clients. Each client has a few different file formats. None of the clients have the same format as each other. We load files from each client each day. Each day the file name changes. I have done all of my current development work with a constant file name in a text file connection manager.

Ultimately we will write a VB application for the computer operator to select the flat file to load and the SSIS package to load it with. I had been planning on accomplishing this thru the SSIS command line interface. Can I specify the flat file to load via a variable that is passed through the command line? Do I need to use a Script Component to take the variable and assign it to the connection manager?

Is there a better way to do this? I have seen glimpses of a VB interface to SSIS. Maybe that is a better way to kick off the packages from a VB app?

Thanks,

Chris

Importing Text File To SQL

Sep 15, 2004

HI Guys,

I am doing the following to read the data in a text file and inserting it into SQL.

1) Open db connection
2) Open Text File
3) loop through text file all along inserting each row into the db
4) close the text file
5) close the db connection

However, the text file has over 400 rows/lines of data that need to be inserted into the db. Each line in the text file is a row in the db. At anyrate, the above script times out. Is there a better, faster way to do this? I can't use Bulk Insert due to permissions previlages.

Thanks in Advance!

Dynamically Configure Text File Destination In SSIS

Feb 7, 2008

Good Afternoon,

So this one has been bugging me for a while and I am ready to punt...

Is it possible to dynamically create a text file destination in SSIS and then pump the results of a query stored in a variable to this text file?

So my package looks like this
1) SQL task that pulls back a list of tables to be exported
2) For Each Loop ADO enum that passes the table name to a SQL Task that builds the select...ie select * from <DTS.Variables()>
3) Data flow task that sets the command from variable from step 2
4) Text File destinaiton that is built using a varable as the connectionstring

I am delaying validation in steps3 and 4 above without any luck...basically I am curious if i can even do what I am thinking I should be able to do here...I get as far as getting metadata errors because SSIS can't seem to handle dynamically filling the pipeline with the columns from the variable/SQL statement.

Am I missing something? Is this possible?!

Thanks in advance.
Dave

Importing Text File Into Database

Mar 31, 2007

Hello Everyone,
I would like to import a text file which contains one string (a large integer) per line not separated by commas or anything else except a carriage return. Does anyone know of an easy way to store this in a database file? I'm open to suggestions if there is more than one way to save this kind of information within a database. I have SQL server 2005 developer edition if that helps in any way. I'm also starting to learn about Linq so if there is some other way you would store this information for that purpose I would love to hear about that as well. C# code is preferable, but I can use the automatic translators if that's all you have. By the way, I'm a newbie to this subject (if you couldn't tell). Thanks in advance.

Issues Importing A Text File (tab Delimited) To A SQL Table

Dec 7, 2005

I have a text file I am trying to import to a table. This text file is in a tab delimited format. I am using DTS to import the data to a new table I made. The fields are varchar and are set to allow nulls & allow 8,000 characters per field.

The error I am getting is that the data exceeds the allowed amount (or something like that) in col4.

Now I have checked everything in column 4 and nothing exceeds 5,000 spaces/characters combined. I have checked the entire sheet (in excel) for that fact, and there is not one single column/row/cell that exceeds 5,000 spaces/characters combined.

What the heck could be causing SQL to tell me I am trying to import too much data in one column when there is nothing that even comes close to 8,000 characters & spaces combined?

Importing Text File Removes Decimal Separator

Feb 20, 2006

Hi,

I'm trying to import a semi-comma separated text file into a SQL db. I have a field in the text file that contains decimal number. As a decimal separator it's used a comma (15,35). When i use a DTS package to create a destination table and import all rows, the field is created as a float field. In this field the decimal comma is removed so the number in SQL becomes 1535. If I change the decimal separator to (.) i works OK. But I need to get it work with comma as decimal separator. In the DTS package the field form the text file is recognised as varchar (8000). Any ideas?

Problem Importing Data From SQL To A EBCDIC Text File

Feb 21, 2008

Hi, how are you?
I generated a Data Flow Task where a OLE DB Source connects to a SQL Server and gets data from a table. The next step, writes a txt file with the information (Flat File destination).
All data is imported to txt fiel if this one is configured as Code Page: 1252 (ANSI - Latin I) in the connection manager for the flat file. But if I change Code Page: 500 (IBM EBCDIC - International) which is the one I need beacuse I have to imported in a mainframe, it doesn't work.
This is the error that I receive:

Code Snippet
TITLE: Package Validation Error

Importing Text File Problem Using Import And Export Wizard

Feb 5, 2007

Hi,

I'm trying to import text file (generated by UNIX - collation ISO LATIN 2) into the database using SQL SERVER 2005 Import and Export Wizard. I have got a problem with importing a decimal number, because in that column are not only decimal numbers (that's OK), but there are also spaces (not null, the column is filled by spaces and it looks like | |). When I'm trying import that file, then will occur the problem of truncation and import stops.

I can import that data by BULK INSERT, but I would like to import it by Import and Export Wizard at once without using subsequent conversions.

Error When Importing Text File - Saving In Notepad First Works

Mar 16, 2007

I'm trying to import a tab separated text file into sql server 2005 using the import guide. But when running the job I get the error message

Error 0xc02020c5: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed while converting column "Column 19" (67) to column "Column 19" (404). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

The column 19 which reported a problem contains this information:
?searchroot=/_gen_/txt/&template=std.htm&use=prospect&intref=1_26067

However what is mysterious is that if I open the file in notepad or Excel and resave it again the job runs perfectly. This is not a way we could make it work later on since it's an automatic job that will run each night on a new text file.

The text file is sent from Norway to Sweden - and I use ANSI latin 1 when importing.

The column has datatype DT_STR with a width of 500.

I use Locale Swedish and when I save in Notepad it is saved in ANSI,

I use Windows XP Swedish version.

Invalid Character Value For Cast Specification Error Upon Importing Text File

Apr 23, 2007

Hi all--Given a table called "buyers" with the following column definitions in a SQL Server 2005 database:

[BUYER] [nvarchar](40) NULL,

[DIVISION] [nvarchar](3) NULL,

[MOD_DATE] [datetime] NULL

This table is laden with Unicode data and the MOD_DATE contains no data--not even NULL values, and is giving me a headache as a result. I can export this data fine to a text file, but when I create an SSIS package to attempt import to another table defined exactly the same as above in another place, I get the following messages:

Can anyone suggest a course of action on how to handle the error when the MOD_DATE field is completely empty?

Thanks in advance,

Problem Importing Csv Delimited Text File Into A Sql Server 2005 Table

Integration Services :: Importing Text File Into Table - Random Data Order

Aug 3, 2015

I'm importing comma-delimited text files into a SQL table. The data imports in a seemingly random order. One time I import and the lines appear one way and the next time I import they import another way.

Is there a way to force the text files to import in the same order the data is found in the file?

Text Delimiter (newbie)

Sep 14, 2007

Sorry if this thread has been repeated but I cannot find a reference to my problem. I have read that apostrophes can be qualified with double quotes but that doesnt solve my problem. I am using SQL 2000 on a Windows 2000 Server trying to set up a job to email the results of a query. I have had no trouble getting it to run as scheduled but cannot seem to get the results out when I add a clause that filters out a text column.
This is the query I am trying to run from a step within a job inside our SQL Agent:

exec master.dbo.xp_sendmail
@recipients = 'user@mycompany.com',
@subject = 'Overnight Safedata Statistics',
@query =' SELECT u.username as BackUpSet , r.requestresultstatus as Status, r.requesttype
from users u ,requests r where u.userid = r.userid
AND requestdate between getdate()-1 and getdate()
AND requestresultstatus <> 'Success' ',
@message = 'Results over the last 24 Hours',
@attach_results = FALSE,
@dbuse = 'BackupServer'

I can successfully run the @query string in query analyzer and it worked fine from SQL mail until I added the last clause to the step (AND requestresultstatus <> 'Success' ). I do not know how to get the 'Success' treated as text.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
JT

P.S. I am a network guy trying to give our SQL developers a break.

Dynamic Column Delimiter In Text Files

Sep 12, 2006

Hi,

is there any way to change the delimiter in a FlatFile Source Adapter dynamically? You can do that with the row delimiter but there is no expression for the column delimiter... Is there any other way besides changing the XML code?

Thanks,
