Inline Schema - XML Source
Mar 15, 2007
I have a serialized XML that I got from a dataset. In my 'Data Flow Task', I bind the 'XML Source' source to this XML file. Since the XML file is having the schema along with it, I check the 'Use Inline schema' option. However, when I put a dataviewer to see the rows getting sent to the destination, I see that no rows are getting transfered. As you will see from the XML file I am trying to use, I do have one row to transfer.
I tried kepping the schema file and the content file separate and that worked. I am not sure if there are any inherent issues I need to take care of, when using inline schemas to transfer data. I have the SP2 for SQL 2005 installed.
Here is the XML file content:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<DataSet>
<xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="NewDataSet">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="Table1">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="LastName" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="FirstName" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="Descr" type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
<NewDataSet>
<Table1>
<LastName>Agrawal</LastName>
<FirstName>Sumeet</FirstName>
<Descr>Consultant 1</Descr>
</Table1>
</NewDataSet>
</DataSet>
Thanks,
Sumeet

I'm using the XML Source to process a document with 17 elements in it. That leaves me with 17 outputs from the source.
Any time I make even the slightest change to the schema, it causes the metadata collection of the source to be updated. This causes everything in the data flow to have inconsistent metadata. This can take a very long time to fix, even though all I have to do is open the top transform and allow name mapping to work.
Is there any better way to make changes to an XML schema being used this way? Any tricks?

Greetings!!
I have a MsAccess db containing a table called Employees which i am transforming to Sql server 2005. Everything is working fine. I am using Foreach File enumerator and uploading the files one by one.
However I now plan to validate the schema of MsAccess before uploading it. For eg: My employee table in msaccess is as follows :
Employees
empId int,
empName varchar(60),
empAge int
Since the files come from different vendor, while looping, i want to perform a check if the empid or empAge are not of type long or are not null. If they are of type smallint,i have no problem.
However if they are larger datatypes than the the ones kept in Sql server, then the file needs to be logged in the db with the reason and moved to the error folder. In short, if the datatypes in access tables are smaller than those in Sqlserver, allow it, otherwise reject it.
THe schema of Sqlserver table is same as of that of Employees in msaccess.
How do I do it.
Thanks ,

I want to be able to programmatically set the schema location for an XML source. I first thought it would be a simple task using expressions and variables but it doesn't appear to allow anything in the way of setting it at runtime. Is this possible?

Is there a way to configure the XML source component to use a schema file whose filename is in a variable? Now I know it doesn't make any sense to have an XML source whose schema can vary, however, I have a parent package with a ton of child packages, all of which process the same XML input using the same schema. What I would like to do is for the parent to load the filename of the XML input file into a variable, and the filename of the XML schema file into another. Each child would have its XML source configured to pickup these variables from the parent, so that if the location or name of the schema changes, I don't have to edit each package one-by-one. However, it doesn't seem possible to specify anything but a filename for the schema. Any suggestions?

I'm having a problem with the XML Source data flow component not transferring the length attributes from an XML Schema to the column attributes of the output table.
An example schema that I have is:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><data xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'><xsd:schema> <xsd:simpleType name='NameType'> <xsd:restriction base='xsd:string'> <xsd:minLength value='0'/> <xsd:maxLength value='50'/> </xsd:restriction> </xsd:simpleType> <xsd:element name='Name' type='NameType' nillable='true'/> <xsd:simpleType name='FamilyType'> <xsd:restriction base='xsd:string'> <xsd:minLength value='0'/> <xsd:maxLength value='50'/> </xsd:restriction> </xsd:simpleType> <xsd:element name='Family' type='FamilyType' nillable='true'/> <xsd:element name='row'> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element ref='Name'/> <xsd:element ref='Family'/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element> <xsd:element name='data'> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element ref='row' maxOccurs='unbounded'/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element></xsd:schema> <!-- data follows --> <row><Name>Fred</Name><Family>Jones</Family></row></data>
When I reference file in the XML Source data control, it correctly infers that there are two columns, but the length of the strings in the columns are set as 255.
This behaviour appears to be at odds with the SSIS documentation (SQL Server Integration Services/Integration Services Object and Concepts/Data Flow Elements/Integration Services Sources/XML Source), which states (highlighting mine):
When the data is extracted from the XML data file, it is converted to an Integration Services data type. The XSD or inline schema may specify the data type for elements, but if it does not, the XML Source Editor dialog box assigns the Unicode string data type (DT_WSTR) to the column in the output that contains the element, and sets the column length to 255 characters. If the schema specifies the maximum length of an element, the length of output column is set to this value. If the maximum length is greater than the length supported by the Integration Services data type to which the element is converted, then the data is truncated to the maximum length of the data type. For example, if a string has a length of 5000, it is truncated to 4000 characters because the maximum length of the DT_WSTR data type is 4000 characters; likewise, byte data is truncated to 8000 characters, the maximum length of the DT_BYTES data type. If the schema specifies no maximum length, the default length of columns with either data type is set to 255. Data truncation in the XML source is handled the same way as truncation in other data flow components. For more information, see Handling Errors in Data.
Has anyone had any luck in getting string lengths automatically extracted from an XML document? If so, where I am going wrong?
Regards,
Michael

I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely,
Bryan Ax

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.

Locally I develop in SQL server 2005 enterprise. Recently I recreated my db on the server of my hosting company (in sql server 2005 express).I basically recreated the tables and copied the data in it.I now receive the following error when I hit the DB:The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a
database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the
current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may
need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe
(available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the
provider to a newer version.I heard something about running aspnet_regsql.exe, but I dont have that access to the DB. Also I dont know if this command does anything more than creating the membership tables and filling it with some default data...Any other solutions/thought on what this can be?Thanks!

Hello,
I would like to know if there is any sort of improvement when using Inline SQL vs Stored Procedures as far as the execution plans are concerned when they are used in SSIS packages. I happened to create a SSIS package which calls Stored Procedures but internally they are using Linked Servers to get the data required. At this point they want to know what will be benefit that can be achieved when Inline SQL is used.
I would appreciate if anybody can give their thoughts or provide some informative articles like pros and cons.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I would like to use SSIS tool to move the data from one database schema to another database schema.
For example:
Source table has
1. UserName (varchar 20) (no null)
2. Email (varchar 50) (can be null)
Destination table has
1. UserID (uniqueidentifier - GUID)
2. UserName (varchar 50) (no null)
3. EmailAddress (nvarchar 50) (can be null)
4. DateTime
Questions:
1. What controls do I use in my Data Flow to make data move between databases with different data types and include new value in UserID as a new GUID and DateTime as a date (GETDATE)?
OLE DB Source, OLE DB Destination, Data Converson and .....
How do I insert Guid and Date at the same time?
2. I have many tables to do data moving. Any sugestions? How do I architect my project? If I create many data flows for each table - it will look complicated.
Please give me some advices here.
Thanks.

Hi, I'm trying to get MSSQL to choose which row to display from a result from a query, but it seems to need an 'IF' or something similar.
My query asks the database to pick out all rows that meet critera X, but sometimes (quite correctly) some of the rows created by query X are duplicates. (A data overlap nothing wrong with the query)
I want to be able to get the query to decide which one of these duplicates to display. There is a unique element.
Example Below
|ID | SYSNAME |DATE |ACTIVE
---------------------------------------------
1 | PC1 | 10/3/7 | 1
2 | PC1 | 10/3/7 | 0
3 | PC2 | 10/3/7 | 1
ID 1 + 2 is the duplicate.
In my example I want to remove ID 1 from the result, I can't use the 'active' column as this will remove ID3 fro the result.
I want the query to recognise the duplicate based on the sysname, then choose to display the result with 0 in it.
Does anyone have a clue what I'm talking about? I'm loosing the plot.

I have to write a query for printing multiple barcodes, depending on the quantity of items that came in the store, based on the order number.
DECLARE @num INT
SELECT BarCodes.BarCode, BarCodes.ArticleID, ArticlesTrafic.DocumentID, ArticlesTrafic.TrafficQuantity
FROM BarCodes INNER JOIN
Articles ON BarCodes.ArticleID = Articles.ArticleID INNER JOIN
getAutoNumberTable(@num) ON @num=ArticlesTrafic.TrafficQuantity
WHERE (ArticlesTrafic.DocumentID = @Param2)
The thing i would like to do, is somehow assign a value to @num and pass it to the getAutoNumberTable stored procedure, which generates a table of consequtive numbers, so that each record is displayed multiple times. Is it even possible to do it without using temp tables and loops?

I have two questions regarding in-line bar charts...
First, I put the text as data labels and check 'Auto' for positioning, most of the time the text is written to the right of the bar (which is what I want). However, there is one case that if the space to the right of the bar is not enough for the text, it starts writting on the bar itself.... is there a way I could set it so that the text only appears when there is enough space to the right, so that text never appears on any bars?
Secondly, is there a way I could put hyperlinks on the text?
Thanks again,
Steven

Hello,
I regularly create stored procedures and use them like functions within other stored procedures.
I've never had any difficulty but then I never ran any metrics on it.
Does anyone know if there is an efficiency difference between that approach and just doing an inline query? How much of a difference is it? minimal? impractically large?
For example, if I define an sp like:
create proc isValidUser @userID int , @result int OUTPUT as
if exists(select * from user where userid = @userID)
set @result = 1

Hi!
I have some stored procedures returning resultsets.
You can store this resultset in an table (table variable, permanent table or temp. table),
but this would require additional code, which has to be maintaned
when called code is changed (typical added columns in resultset).
I would like to avoid this, if it can be done with minimal overhead.
I looked at openrowset/openquery (I looked for something similar to the "THE"-operator), but couldn't find an solution.
Suggestions welcome.
Here some examples showing the idea:
CREATE PROC tmpA
AS
BEGIN
SELECT CAST(42 AS INT) b;
END;
-- 1. can't work
select b from (exec tmpA);
-- 2. cant't work
select *
into tmp
(exec tmpA);
-- 3. will work
declare @a table (a int);
insert into @a
exec tmpA;
select * from @a;

I understand now I can create a view of the function Simply by using the function name in my FROM statement. However I get an error that arguments provided do not match parameters required. However, I'm not getting the prompt to enter my criterion. Is my error in my function statement? I can't save the view. I also understand I could use a pass-through query. Is there some sort of guidance or tutorial on that to which you could point me?
Thanks for your time.

Hi,
We have our DWH built in SQL Server 2005. We are doing reporting against the DWH and most of query logic is complex. For this purpose we have proposed to write SPs to encapsulate the logic and which in turn can be called from the Report Data Tab. But our IT Architect suggest us to have inline queries instead of SPs as that will reduce the overhead of going to the DBAs everytime the logic changes. As I am new to DWH+Reporting, I was really pondering over which way to go. Can anyone suggest a way out on this.
Thanks,
S Suresh
