How to insert data into a table from a string variable? Like below:
DECLARE @Data AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @Data = 'bla|bla|bla
lab|lab|lab
abl|abl|abl'
BULK INSERT tablename
FROM @Data
WITH
(
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = '|',
ROWTERMINATOR = '

I am using C# in Visual Studio 2008 and remote database as sql server 2008 R2. I want to read remote database table's field value and i have to move that read value to string variable. how to do it.
And my code is :
string sql = "Select fldinput from tmessage_temp where fldTo=IDENT_CURRENT('tmessage_temp')";
SqlCommand exesql = new SqlCommand(sql, cn);
exesql.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
SqlDataReader rd1 = default(SqlDataReader);
rd1 = exesql.ExecuteReader();
hi everyone
I am not allowed to use temp tables in any of the stored procedures i write (not my decision). So i am trying to use table variables.
I have several stored procedures whose results I want to store into a table variable. I read some info and I realize I cannot store this information into a table variable like this:
insert into @all
exec sp_getresults
I get this error: EXECUTE cannot be used as a source when inserting into a table variable.
is there any other way that i can store the results of a stored procedure call without using a # or a ##? Oh and I also cant create a standard table either...
id appreciate any help :)
I am trying to insert data into two different tables. I will insert into Table 2 based on an id I get from the Select Statement from Table1.
Insert Table1(Title,Description,Link,Whatever)Values(@title,@description,@link,@Whatever)Select WhateverID from Table1 Where Description = @DescriptionInsert into Table2(CategoryID,WhateverID)Values(@CategoryID,@WhateverID)
This statement is not working. What should I do? Should I use a stored procedure?? I am writing in C#. Can someone please help!!
I have a table with a string value, where all values are seperated by a space/blank. I now want to use SQL to split all the values and insert them into a different table, which then later will result in deleting the old table, as soon as I got all values out from it.
Old Table:
Code:
ID, StringValue
New Table:
Code:
ID, Value1, Value2
Do note: Value1 is INT, Value2 is of nvarchar, hence Value2 can contain spaces... I just need to split on the FIRST space, then convert index[0] to int, and store index[1] as it is.
I can split on all spaces and just Select them all and add them like so: SELECT t.val1 + ' ' + t.val2... If I cant find the first space that is... I mean, first 2-10 characters in the string can be integer, but does not have to be.Shall probably do it in code instead of SQL?Now I want to run a query that selects the StringValue from OldTable, splits the string by ' ' (a blank) and then inserts them into New Table.
Code:
SELECT CASE CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1)
WHEN 0 THEN OldTable.stringvalue
ELSE SUBSTRING(OldTable.stringvalue, 1, CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) - 1)
END
AS FirstWord
FROM OldTable
Found an example using strange things like CHARINDEX..But issue still remains, because the first word is of integer, or it does not have to be...If it isn't, there is not "first value", and the whole string shall be passed into "value2".How to detect if the very first character is of integer type?
Code:
@declare firstDigit int
IF ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) = 1
set @firstDigit = CAST(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int)
ELSE
set @firstDigit = -1
[code]....
I am trying to insert an NTEXT value from one table T1 to another table T2 within a database. Table structures are as below;
Create table T1 (T1ID INT NOT NUll, SourceColumn Ntext null)
Create table T2 (T2ID INT NOT NUll, TargetColumn NVARCHAR(MAX) null)
Every time when long text value is getting inserted into T2.TargetColumn , it is appending with an unwanted character '?' either at the beginning or at the ending of the text string. Same problem happens even when I am trying to update T2.TargetColumn = T1.TextColumn. Because of this, the same column never matches to the source column and gets updated every time even there is no change...
I am also converting NTEXT column to NVARCHAR(MAX) and replacing CHAR(10) to '' .
I am using SQL Server 2012. How can I avoid inserting '?' in T2.TargetColumn . Is there any setting which I need to set in the target table?
HiI'm grateful for any light you can shed on this!!I've to admit, it's an unusual design but I've multiple contact tables namede.g. i2b_ash_contact or i2b_ted_contact.'i2b_' and '_contact' are static but the middle part is dynamic.Storing all contacts in one table with an identifier of e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'for each record is not possible.Returning the value from the dynamic Query is no problem but I don't knowhow to assign it to a variable.When I try doing this it either runs into problems with evaluating thevariables or doesn't retuen anything at all e.g. if I say at the end 'Print@AddressID'. The variable remains empty.How can I do something like:DECLARE@AddressID int,@ProgClient (varchar(10),@Table varchar(10)Note: @Prog is a string e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'SET @Table = 'i2b_ + @ProgClient + '_contactSET @AddressID = (SELECT AddressID FROM @Table WHERE ContactID = @ContactID)

I have written a SSIS package which does the following:
- An 'Execute SQL Task' uses an OLEDB connection to execute a Stored Procedure in SQL Server 2005
A SSIS user defined variable named @SourceSQLStatement is passed to the Stored procedure as an OUTPUT
This variable is a string Data Type
- The Stored Procedure generates an SQL command and saves it in the variable
This variable is defined as @SourceSQLStatement nvarchar(4000) OUTPUT
The varible is then returned to the SSIS package
When the package is executed the variable does not contain the entire SQL command.
When I check in the Locals window during Debug, the contents seem to have been truncated:
+ User::SourceSQLstatement {SELECT a.FailureID, a.ExceptionHandlerID, a.FailureTypeCd, a.AccountNbr, a.AccountNm, a.CaseNbr, a.CustNm, a.AssociateNm, a.TargetSysNm, a.FailureDt, a.FailurePointTxt, a.SubmittedByNm, a.ErrorMsgTxt, a.CreateId, a.CreateDt, a.UpdateId, a.UpdateDt FROM GSPIntegrationException a WHERE a.CreateDt >= (select max(ETLC.RunDt) from X141572_ETLSTAGING.dbo.ETL ETL inner join X141572_ETLSTAGING.dbo.ETLControl ETLC on ETL.ETLID = ETLC.ETLID inner join X141572_ETLSTAGING.dbo.ETLRun ETLR on ETLC.ETLID = ETLR.ETLID an} String
The fully generated SQL command does not exceed the 4000 character length provided in the stored procedure.
Has anyone encountered this issue before?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank You

I am able to use a custom script task to receive a MSMQ package and save the package contents to a flat file.
I can also use the bulk load task to push the flat file contents into a SQL table.
However, I would like to save the package contents to a variable (done, it works), and then pass that string variable to a data flow task for SQL upload. In other words, I don't see any reason to persist the msmq package contents to disk.
My question is: Which data flow source can I use that will accept a string variable? The string variable will then need to be processed with bulk load or an execute sql task.
Btw, the content of the string variable is a csv style string:
"01001","11/21/2006",15
"01001","11/21/2006",1
"01001","11/21/2006",25
"01001","11/21/2006",3
Thanks,

I am trying to insert bulk data into main table from staging table in sql server 2012. If any error comes, this total activity is rollbacked. I don't want that to happen. I want to know the records where ever the problem persists, and the rest has to be inserted.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, I have a table in which I will insert several redundant data. Don't ask why, is Integration services, it only reads data and inserts it in a SQL table. THis way, I have a SQL table with several lines repeating them selves. What I want to do is create a procedure that reads the distinct data and inserts it in another table, but my problem is that I am not able to select data line by line on the original table to save it in local variables and insert it on the another table, I just can select the last line. I've tried a while cycle but no succeed. Here is my code: create proc insertLocalizationASdeclare @idAp int, @macAp varchar(20), @floorAp varchar(2), @building varchar(30), @department varchar(30)select @idAp = idAp from OLTPLocalization where idAp not in (select idAp from dimLocalization)select @macAp=macAp,@floorAp=floorAp,@building=building,@department=department from OLTPLocalizationif (@idAp <> null)beginInsert into dimLocalization VALUES(@idAp,@macAp,@floorAp,@building,@department)endGO This only inserts the last line in the "oltpLocalization" table. O the other hand, like this:create proc aaaaasdeclare @idAp as int, @macAp as varchar(50), @floorAp as int, @building as varchar(50), @department as varchar(50)while exists (select distinct(idAp) from OLTPLocalization)begin select @idAp =idAp from OLTPLocalization where idAp not in (select idAp from dimLocalization) select @macAp = macAp from OLTPLocalization where idAp = @idAp select @building = building from OLTPLocalization where idAp = @idAp select @department = department from OLTPLocalization where idAP = @idApif (@idAp <> null)begin insert into dimLocalization values(@idAp,@macAp,@floorAp,@building,@department)endendgo this retrieves every distinct idAp in each increment on the while statement. The interess of the while is really selecting each different line in the OLTPLocalization table. I did not find any foreach or for each statement, is there any way to select distinct line by line in a sql table and save each column result in variables, to then insert them in another table? I've also thought about web service, that reads the distinct data from the oltpLocalization into a dataset, and then inserts this data into the dimLocalization table. Is there anything I can do?Any guess?Really needing a hand here!Thanks a lot!

I have a SSIS package that opens an xml file, puts the contents into a string, then runs a stored procedure that dumps it into an xml column in a table. One of the xml files is huge. Putting the data into a ssis string causes an error. The length of the string variable is 58,231,886. The file will only get bigger.
How else can I get this data into a SQL Server XML field.
Im trying to determine the best way to store data gathered from a form that a user will fill out online. The form is dynamic and is customized at run time based on group-specific criteria. The end result is a form that might have 3 extra text boxes, 2 extra sets of radio buttons and a freeform textbox, whereas for another group, there might be a slightly different set of input fields. Now comes the issue of storing this data. Since the fields can be somewhat dynamic, it could get tricky to define table columns for each possible input field. So Im considering storing the data as xml. Has anyone else had to build custom forms and ended up storing the data as xml ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, I have two tables in a data base and i'm inserting the data from one into the other...no probs. What i was wondering is, in table1 i have an column of ID numbers. In the table2 i have a matching set of ID numbers. There are 5 PersonID numbers in table one and 10 in table two, the same 5 numbers as in table1 but each ID has a duplicate with different data in the two rows.
SAMPLE:
INSERT
INTO Table1 (PersonID, level1, Level2, Level3, Level4)
SELECT PersonID,level1, Level2, Level3, Level4
FROM Table2
When i insert the data into table1 it leaves the first 5 rows of data as null and then populates the table with all the data from table two. Is there anyway of preventing these first 5 columns from remaining empty....
I hope that makes sense
Hi, I'm fairly new to SQL Server 2005.
i have a table that creates customer id's along with other data (let's call it Customer)
I would like to take the same customer_id data and import it into a different table (HQ_Customer) the new table also has different column names.
Is there a script that can be used for this problem?
Well, I think this should be an easy question, but here goes:
I'm taking data from one table and inserting it into another. According to the SQL Server Mobile Book Online, the syntax goes like this:
INSERT INTO Table1 (col1, col2) SELECT (col1, col2) from Table2
So while I can do this with my tables:
INSERT INTO sensor_stream (sensor_stream_id) SELECT (sensor_stream_id) FROM sensor_stream_temp
If I add any more columns, I get an error. Like this:
INSERT INTO sensor_stream (sensor_stream_id, sensor_stream_type_id) SELECT (sensor_stream_id, sensor_stream_type_id) FROM sensor_stream_temp
The error is "There was an error parsing th equery. [ Token line number =1, Token line offset = 98, Token in error = ',' ]"
Anyone have any ideas about why I cannot do more than one column at a time?
TIA,

I can do this in an old (~2003) way, but I'm trying to figure out a new (2005) way. What I've got is an e-commerce project in which users select various products from a catalog and add them to a shopping cart. Then they go to a checkout page which displays the current contents of the shopping cart, which are contained in a manually-constructed data table (system.data.datatable).
On the checkout page a GridView displays the contents of the data table. At that point they can check out via button click, which launches the following (somewhat simplified) ADO.NET code:1 Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

What I'd like to do is see if I can instead use a simplified approach based on 2.0 controls. Specifically, I was hoping that I could use an SqlDataSource and simply tap into its built-in Insert capabilities. So I tried this alternate procedure:Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)Dim intCounter As Integer 'Used to count the loopFor intCounter = 0 To objDT.Rows.Count - 1DSOrdersNew.InsertParameters("Product") = objDR("Product")DSOrdersNew.InsertParameters("Quantity") = objDR("Quantity")DSOrdersNew.Insert()NextEnd SubWhen I run this I get an error message saying: "Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.Parameter'."Am I just way out in left field here? I guess I don't mind doing it the old-fashioned way, but it seems like there ought to be a way to do this. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

It appears that when I insert data into a varchar(8000) field, SQL Server truncates everything after the 256th byte. When I change the field to text, this problem is eliminated. Can someone give me an explanation of why? And can I actually to the insert with the field being a varchar(8000) instead of a text data type. This will do wonders for the size and indexing.

I have question on lock on table in SQL Server while inserting data using multiple processes at a single time into same table.Here are my questions on this,
1) Is it default behavior of SQL server to lock table while doing insert?
2) if yes to Q1, then how we can implicitly mention while inserting data.
3) If I have 4 tables and one table is having foreign keys from rest of the 3 tables, on this scenario do I need to use the table lock explicitly or without that I can insert records into those tables?

I have 2 tables: Source Table - IncidentDimNew and Destination Table - IncidentDimNew with identical columns: Id and CreatedDate but the data is different.
I would like to insert distinct data from those 2 columns of 1st table into the same 2 columns into the 2nd table but I onlt want to replace the values in the 2nd table where the Created Date is > 2015-04
I compiled the code in order to get the information I want from 2 tables:
Source Table
SELECT
COUNT(Id),
LEFT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10)), CreatedDate, 126), 7)
FROM
IncidentDimNew
[Code] ...
This is the code I wrote in order to do it
INSERT INTO IncidentDim
[Id]
,[CreatedDate]
SELECT
[Id]
,[CreatedDate]
FROM
IncidentDimNew
where left(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), CreatedDate, 126),7) > '2015-04'
GO
But what it does it's gives the SUM of the values in the corresponding rows where the values are not null which I don't want.
So how do I leave the values as is from table IncidentDim and insert new values as it is from IncidentDimNew where the Created Date is > 2015-04?

I'd like to select data out of an oracle table, and UPDATE a sybase table. So far I've got as far as the following:
1. create a package
2. add 2 connection managers, set retainsameconnection=true on both just to be sure.
3. add an executesql command which creates a temporary table
create table #temp_wm ( instru_id int)
4. add a dataflow task with:
i) an oledb source with a select statement: "select instru_id from mytable"
ii) an oledb destination with open rowset: #temp_wm
added an external column called instru_id in the inputs and outputs tab
when i run, the create temp table task work, the select works, but the insert into fails. If I change the select statement to:
"select instru_id from mytable where 1=0" it all executes fine.
So everythings copacetic as long as i don't need to actually insert any real records = brilliant!
