I have a CSV file that I am importing via SSIS into a SQL table.On the Flat File connector, I have specified Line Feed as the row delimiter.The data flow is failing due to some of the rows having line feeds before the end of the row.Is there a way to get rid of some line feeds but not others, so that I can run the data flow successfully.
View 6 RepliesI'm in the process of importing a series of flat files into SQL Server. I'm using a ~ to separate the columns and the row delimiter is {CR}{LF}. One of the files has a field that contains the CRLF combination in a few places so that field is split over several rows. This is readily visible when I look at the flat file. However, when I'm importing the file, the Import and Export wizard seems to ignore them and import the files as they should with one row per record.

for some AP issue, the file I upload must be without the line feed/carriage return in the last line.
for example:
original fixed-length file (exported from SSIS)
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
4 <-- with line feed/carriage return in the last line
The file format that AP request. The file only has 3 records, so it should end in the third line.
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
Should I use script component to do it ? I am new for VB . Anyone would help me ?
Thank you all.
created a very basic flow in SSIS: extracted table data through ole db connection, added multicast and as end result i created a flat file destination (with .txt file) and a ole db destination.
My question is; how can i delete the .txt file before executing the flow again? Want to avoid that the .txt file has duplicated rows after a second execution of the flow. Is it possible to use scd component or is this way to complicated? A for each loop?
i need a similar solution for the data that will be transported through the ole db destination task....
I am working on an "invoice" print, and it has to be on a pre-printed form, I need to print the totals at the bottom of the page and need help figuring out how to add specific amount of line feeds. I tried printing chr(13) , chr(10), conbination of both, also tried Environment.NewLine, no luck.
Using SQLRS2000, developing report with VS2003.
Anyone's suggestions would be greatly appreciated!.
Hi All,
I am trying to print 10 values in a single cell in a text box.....
To make it readable I put carriage returns and line feeds into the boxes.
These rendered ok in visual studio but did not render ok in explorer....no carriage return or line feed.
This is what I added...
=Fields!segment_sdesc_00.Value & chr(10) & chr(13)
Can anyone advise me as to what is wrong with this? There must be a way to put a cr/lf or newline into a report in a text box.....
Thanks in Advance

I already modified the properties under smart labels under calloutlineanchor, calloutlinestyle, calloutstyle to None but still getting this vertical lines. another things is the data label as you can see in the the first column the 1.8% should be place under the gray color but its already shown before the orange color.

I have a importfile that I need to insert into an db table. The file looks like this:
one;two;three;text;moretext
one;two;three;text;moretext;
one;two;three;text;moretext
one;two;three;text;moretext;
one;two;three;text;moretext
one;two;three;text;moretext;
As you can see some rows contains a delimiter while others dont. There is a programing error on the application that generates the file and this cannot be changes.
Is there a way in integration services to remove the delimiter ?
Thanks

I have the variable @Monthname defined as shown below:
(MONTH(getdate()) == 1 ? "January" : MONTH(getdate()) == 2 ? "February" : MONTH(getdate()) == 3 ? "March" :
MONTH(getdate()) == 4 ? "April" : MONTH(getdate()) == 5 ? "May" : MONTH(getdate()) == 6 ? "June" :
MONTH(getdate()) == 7 ? "July" : MONTH(getdate()) == 8 ? "August" : MONTH(getdate()) == 9 ? "September" :
MONTH(getdate()) == 10 ? "October" : MONTH(getdate()) == 11 ? "November" : MONTH(getdate()) == 12? "December":"")
By itself, it is working fine. I am attempting to have the @SubjectLine variable display the below:
CA - TFL for the month of August 2015
I am using the expression below in the expression builder:
"CA - TFL for the month of " + @[User::MonthName] + (DT_WSTR,4)YEAR(GETDATE())
When evaluating the expression, I get the below (month is missing):
CA - TFL for the month of 2015
I had Excel file input & import to DB Table by using Data flow in SSIS.but it had duplicates so I dont use the Dupe Records
So I planned like below:
Method 1:
Here OLEDB Destination are Good Records(Without Duplicates)
OLEDB Destination are Not Good Records(only Duplicates)
or
Method :2
If I add a column(GOOD_RECORD) in DB Table and Should I update '1' for top 1 record (for Good Record) and remaining as '0' for other Records (for Dups)latter I utilize Through flag of GOOD_RECORD
i.e.,, select * from DB_TABLE where GOOD_RECORD='1' .
I think that Method :2 Advisable for Performance/flexible but Here How can I update by using SSIS(Data flow) ????

When creating a line chart, I would like to be able to show Markers for the data points, but no line between these points (as you can do in excel).
I have set the line setting to none (for the lines of interest), however the lines still show.
Is this a bug, or am i missing something obvious settings-wise?

i am parameterize my DB connection in sql sever 2012,it showing in agent job as parameter.but when i run job it giving me error:

I'm trying to execute a simple VBS file from the Executable command line in the Execute Process Task Editor.
My line is this : cscript.exe "c:convertcsvssisXlsToCsv.vbs"
SSIS keeps saying there are illegal characters here. I've Googled and looked about 20 articles and I can't resolve it.
I have a ForEach that loops through Excel files and changes them to CSV files using code i found. This script takes an original Excel file and transfers it to a new CSV file in a new directory.
So in DOS at the CMD line I would type : XlsTocsv.vbs originalfile.xls newfile.csv
I have the original file and new file in the Arguments line so I'm assuming that after the script executes it will look at the filepaths in the loop and loop through them so I want it do to this when it runs:
XlsTocsv.vbs [User::@ExcelFile] [User::@CSVFile]
I just can't get it to execute and I keep getting illegal characters.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a package in which there are only one Data flow Task and it has only three components. 1) Source , which is a SQL db 2) destination and 3) OLE DB Destination flat file Error output file. I want the error file to be created ONLY if there is any error while dumping the data into destination DB. But , the issue is, the error flat file is being created inspite of No error while dumping the data from Source to Destination.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm copying files to a folder with the naming convention as follows in the source folder:
CM_ABC_MY_TEST.txt
In the destination folder, this filename needs to appear as:
CM_XYZ_MY_TEST.txt
In my File System Task, I'm pretty sure I'm going to need an expression with a replace, substring, etc. But am having a hard time nailing down the exact syntax.
Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
@[User::Output_Path] + "Comms_File"+ @[User:: FileNumber] +"_" + replace((DT_WSTR, 10) (DT_DBDATE) GETDATE(),"-","")+ ".txt"
All this successfully creates these 4 files:
Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt, Comms_File_3_20150724.txt, Comms_File_4_20150724.txt
Now the QUESTION is how do I get these filenames as I need to insert them into a DB Audittable. The audit table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MMMAudit
(
AuditID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
PackageName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
FileName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
LoadTime DATETIME NULL,
NumberofRecords INT NULL
)
To save the Filename & how many records in each file in our Audit Table, am using an Execute SQL Task and configuring it as this:
Execute SQL Task
Parameter mapping - Mapped the User Variable (RecordsInserted) and System Variable( PackageName) to Insert statement as shown below
SQLStatement: INSERT INTO [dbo].[MMMAudit] (
PackageName,NumerofRecords,LoadTime)
(?,?.GETDATE)
Again this all works terrific & populates the dbo.MMMAudit table as shown below BUT I also need to insert the respsctive file name – How do I do that?
AuditID PackageName FileName NumberOfRecords
1 MMM NULL 12
2 MMM NULL 23
3 MMM NULL 14
4 MMM NULL 1
I have a ssis package where I need to have excel destination. In the Excel file, I need to have few rows with some text and then populate data below the text. One the text is like this:
Data as of: 08/25/2015
if the report ran today, then Data as of will have Yesterday. So, if the user opens that excel file after a week, then user should see same Data as of: 08/25/2015. not today()-day(1).
I was planing to handle on excel side with today()-day(1). but it only works the day it was run. Then the excel file is open after few days later, then it might as Data as of: 08/30/2015 which is not true. It should still stay Data as of:
08/25/2015 on what ever date the excel file is open. The SSIS package runs only once.
How do I handle this so that whenever user open the file, they will see Data as of: 08/25/2015. This is not a column in excel. It is like a description of data in excel.

I need to move specific files from a server to another server on a monthly basis. There are hundreds of files that are in the source directory and I need to move approximately 40 of those to the destination server. I would like to easily add or delete the file list as needed. I have seen where several variables were created for for each file name (and one for the path) and the ForEach Loop would go through them. With 40 or more I was thinking that I could make a connection to an Excel spreadsheet or text file with a record for each file name and read in and and move to the next record and make that value become the content of a "FileName" variable. Then if I wanted to add another file name I could just add another record to spreadsheet/text file or remove and the package would handle automatically....
