Looking For A Function Similat To InitCap In Oracle For SQL SERVER 7.0
Jul 12, 2000Hi Guys,
Does somebody know if a function similar to INITCAP in Oracle is also available in SQL SERVER 7.0 ?
Just FYI: INITCAP function takes a character string, say 'sql', and returns the string 'Sql' which has first letter 'S' in caps.

IN Function Equivalent For Expressions?
Dec 3, 2007
Trying to write the below in an expression box, I still have not figured out an equivalent to €œIN€? in SQL syntax, so far I€™ve had to use €œOR€? to get it to work. Anyone know the right way? I€™m trying to avoid writing this in the stored proc
Example:
Iif (Fields!INVESTOR_NBR.Value in (0, 265, 465), "DIRECT", "PARTICIPATIONS")

Feb 9, 2007Hi,
I have a crappy old database that has an email field with a lot of bad data, and I need to use SSIS to extract a list of names & email addresses.
I have an OLE DB Source set up to pull the relevant columns out of the database. Is there a way that I could setup a Regular Expression based filter to disregard any rows where my email Regex does not match the value of the email column?
Thanks,

SSIS Connection Object And Expressions
Feb 23, 2006I have been writing a custom source adapter that uses a file connection within the connection manager. If I hard-code a specific file then the component works. However if I use a file connection that has an expression defined which updates the connection, for example when you have a for-each loop looping over a set files. The file connection doesn€™t seem to re-evaluate expression each time you access the file connection via the code. Is there something that I am missing or is there a bug?

Problem With Sleep Function In SSIS
Jun 22, 2006Hi,
I have a script task in SSIS which uses a sleep command. sleep(600000) which waits for 10 minutes. This works fine when i execute the package through GUI. But when i execute the same with Commandline, it does not work. Is there some thing which I have not set. I have also tried the Windows API call for sleep still it behaves the same way.
Any help??

Significant Bug In SSIS Import Function
Feb 8, 2007I have encountered what I consider to be a significant bug when importing Excel spreadsheets using SSIS.
If in the first data row a particular column does not contain a value (i.e. it is null) then SSIS assumes that every row has a null value in that column. This disfunctional beahaviour has cost me hours and hours of wasted time loading and debugging data.
Hopefully someone from the appropriate area within Microsoft will read this post and get this bug fixed.
Operation Of GetFiles Function Is Not Correct In SSIS

Dear All!
I have a script task that try to connect to a computer. In script task, I use code as following:
Try

Catch ex As Exception
Catch
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Failure
End try
In the case, strFullPath is IP address instead of ServerName then package run is not correct. (EX: strFullPath = \10.16.45.89TestFolder, Of course, This path is exist). Its a trange at that: When I run package form source then its suucess. But When I run it from Job of SQL Agent then its fiailure.
Pls help me to solve this problem.

View 22 Replies View RelatedUsing Datediff Function To Return 1st Of Month. Different Results With T-SQL And SSIS
May 15, 2007Hi
I regularly use the T-SQL date functions to return the 1st of a particualr month.
e.g.
SELECT DATEADD(m,DATEDIFF(m,0,getdate()),0)
returns 2007-05-01 00:00:00.000
i.e the first of the current month at midnight.
However, when I try to use a similar expression as a derived column in SSIS it returns a completely different date.
DATEADD("month",DATEDIFF("month",(DT_DATE)0,GETDATE()),(DT_DATE)0)
returns 30/05/2007 00:00:00
Any ideas why and how I can obtain the first of a particualr month using SSIS derived column?

Calling Scalar Valued Function From SSIS OleDB Command Transformation
Mar 2, 2007Hi There,
I need to call a function to calculate a value. This function accepts a varchar parameter and returns a boolean value. I need to call this function for each row in the dataflow task. I thought I would use an oledb command transformation and for some reason if I say..
'select functioname(?)' as the sqlcommand, it gives me an error message at the design time. In the input/output properties, I have mapped Param_0(external column) to an input column.
I get this erro.."syntax error, ermission violation or other non specific error". Can somebiody please suggest me what's wrong with this and how should I deal this.
Thanks a lot!!
Expressions
Jun 7, 2006
When creating expressions we have access to a list of functions. It is my understanding that while these functions seem to have the same names and parameters as SQL functions, they are not so. They are implemented in the package libraries themselves. It is also my understanding that this function library cannot be extended to add new ones.
Am I correct? If so... why not?
Leaving alone the fact that they follow the same screwy names as SQL (instead of .NET on which SSIS is built on) and what seems to be a limited library (i.e. You have YEAR(), MONTH(), DAY() functions but no HOUR(), MINUTE(), or SEC() functions -- instead you have to use DATEPART())
I mean honestly... a common expression for most people is using date and times for folder and filenames... So instead of a simple .NET type expression of DateTime.ToString("yyyyMMdd") or Format(DateTime.Now, "yyyyMMdd_hhmmss") I end up with the very complex:
(DT_STR, 4, 1252) YEAR( GETDATE() ) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) MONTH( GETDATE() ), 2) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DAY( GETDATE() ), 2) + "_" + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("hour", GetDate()), 2) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("minute", GetDate()), 2) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("second", GetDate()), 2)
Personally I find myself using Script Tasks and Variables to "build" my expressions and just use Expressions to set the property to the variable. (Which I think may defeat the full purpose of expressions.)
Any thoughts?

MS SQL:- Regular Expressions

Basically I want use a basic regular expression but can't seem to get the syntax right.
i want to compare ID_short = ID_Long
ID_short is a truncated version of ID_Long, and I want to search on the beginning only (hence I can't use the 'LIKE' comparative on it's own).
What is the syntax to use Reg Expressions (or if anyone knows a non RegExp way of searching the beginning please let me know).

Can I Set Expressions Programmatically?
Apr 16, 2007I'm building SSIS packages through code and I would like to set the properties of some custom tasks (not data flow tasks) to expressions. I've done some searches but turned up nothing. This is the only thing I'm hitting a brick wall on at the moment; Books Online has been excellent in detailing how to create packages via code up to this point.
For the sake of argument, let's say I want to set the SqlStatementSource property of an Execute SQL task to this value:
"INSERT INTO [SomeTable] VALUES (NEWID(), '" + @[User:omeStringVariable] + "')"
What would the code look like?
Color Expressions

I know that you can make an expression that will make it one color if a certain condition is met and a different one if it is not but is there anyway to make it so that if a number is less than another it's one color, if it's greater it's a different color and if they're equal it's a third color? Thanks for the help.

Multiple Expressions.
Apr 16, 2007Good Morning all.
Is it possible to put multiple expressions in one cell.
Here is an example of the expressions I'm using. I'm currently having to put them horizontally in a seperate cell.
=Count(IIf (Trim(Fields!NOB_Pickup_L_D_T.Value) = "Y", 1, Nothing))
=Count(IIf (Trim(Fields!NOB_Pickup_L_D_T.Value) = "N", 1, Nothing))
=Count(IIf (Trim(Fields!NOB_Pickup_L_D_T.Value) = "NA", 1, Nothing))
Desired output will look sim to this in one cell
Y = 5
N = 3
NA = 0

Boolean Expressions
Nov 12, 2007I have a unusual problem, well it is unusual becaue i cannot understand it.
I am retrieving the following data, Revenue, Sales, Commission, and calculating Commission Rate in the report itself.
I got warnings that a textbox that was attempting to calculate the Commission Rate was trying to divide by zero.
When I analysed the data, I realised that indeed there were instances when Revenue was 0.00 and therefore when calculating the commission rate, commission/revenue it returned an error.
I then thought I'd do the following in the expression field
=iif((Fields!RevenueGbp.Value = 0.00), "Zero", (Fields!Commission.ValueGbp/Fields!RevenueGbp.Value))
However this does not work. However if i tried the following Boolean query
=iif((Fields!RevenueGbp.Value = 0.00), "Zero", Fields!CommissionGbp.Value)
it does work. In fact if I use any other identifier or use two field thats add, subtract or multiplied with each other it will work. The problem only arises is when I decide to divide two fields together.
Strangely if the condition is satisfied - [Fields!RevenueGbp.Value = 0.00] - it will still try to work out the division even though it should just return Zero!
Anyone help?
