I'd like to be able to call different packages from a control flow. These packages will have different requirements for parameters therefore I'd like to create them dynamically.
Is this possible? Can I do it using a script task?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am trying to execute a DTS on sql server 2000 using the "Execute DTS 2000 Package Task".
I can see the inner variables and when I set the values everything works fine.
Now I want to pass the values dynamically. How can I achieve this?
Many thanks
Can I assign values to variables in 2012 using below command? I have used the same command in 2008 and it works fine.
DTEXEC
/SERVER"XXXXXXXXSQLSERVER2012"/SQL"Mypackage.dtsx"/SETPackage.Variables[FilePath].Value;"C:Test estvariable.csv"
Wondering is there a different way in 2012 to pass values to variables dynamically.
I am looking high and low for some assistance with developing a VB .NET solution that I programmatically create a package and add tasks. I am adding a BULK INSERT task to load large FLAT TEXT files into SQL Server 2005 tables. When I execute the application I execute a package validation and it always returns FAILURE. I have been reading and searching like crazy and I have bought 2 microsoft books, TO NO AVAIL! Can anyone PLEASE help me with this. Thank you!
Cheers~
I am trying to dynamically create the connection to a database within an SSIS package.
the requirement is to allow the user to pass through the database as a variable and that variable will dynamically create the connection string in the connection manager.
Is this possible, if so how?
I have requirement like to develop dynamic package for inserting data from flat file to table.
Find below points for more clarification :--
1) if I changed the flat file values and name in source variable AND the table name should be also changed based on variable value .
2) it should dynamically mapped with column values with source file as we have to insert data in target table.
See below diagram for more clarification.
Hi,
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .
I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).
It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.
are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW
/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"

Hello Guys,
I am working in one company and currently I am assigned to new project for Data Migration from company X to our company Y using SSIS. I am totally new and i just completed 5 tutorial which was gien on MSDN website.
Basically client is going to send us first flat file with 1 million records with Header, Detail and Trailer records.
I want to create a Package in such a way that it dumps all this first load into 7 to 8 different tables at a time.
we also have to include functionlity for validation and error check.
On successfull load error file should only return Header and Trailer but no detail records.
If there are any errors then error file should contain Header, Detail records which were unable to load plus trailer which we have to sent back to client.
When 2nd file comes that time we have to check whether this is new records or change (update) one depending on Flag which tells it.
This is basically high level idea of my Package what i need to create. If u guys have any question then let me know.
I know you guys are very experienced one. Anyone of you please give me some detail idea on it I would really appricate it.
I have very limited time line for it.
Thanks

I would like to fetch the data flow component name while package is executing. Since system variable named [System::SourceName] only fetches name of the control flow tasks? Is there a way to capture them?

I am making use of the DtUtil tool to deploy my package to SQL Server.
Following is my configuration:
32-bit machine and 32-bit named instance of Yukon.
I have some package variables which need to be set in the code.
Previously I did it as follows:
Set the package variables in the code. For example:
pkgFile.Variables["User::DestinationServerName"].Value = <myvalue>
Deploy the package as follows:
applnObj.SaveToSqlServer(pkgFile, null,
destinationServer, null, null);
Here the package was successfully deployed and when i open those packages using BIDS, I am able to see that the variables are set to the values as doen in teh code.
Because of oen problem I am not using SaveToSQLServer method. So I switched to DTUtil tool.
Now I am doing it this way:
Set the package variables as before.
Deploy the package to SQL Server using DTUtil tool.
Now is the problem:
The package is successfully deployed. But the variables are not set to the value that I have specified in the code.
I also tried DTexec utility to set the package variable. Even that does n't work.
Can anyone help me out? Is there any alternate method to set package variables?
Thanks,

Hello all,I'm trying to request a number of URLS (one for each user) from my database, then place each of these results into a separate string variables. I believed that SqlDataReader could do this for me, but I am unsure of how to accomplish this, or if I am walking down the wrong road. The current code is below (the section in question is in bold), please ignore the fact that I'm using MySQL as the commands work in the same way. public partial class main : System.Web.UI.Page{ String UserName; String userId; String HiveConnectionString; String Current_Location; ArrayList Location; public String Location1; public String Location2; public String Location3; //Int32 x = 0; private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) { UserName = Membership.GetUser().ToString(); userId = Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey.ToString(); HiveConnectionString = "Database=hive;Data Source=localhost;User Id=hive_admin;Password=West7647"; using (MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection conn = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection(HiveConnectionString)) { // Map Updates MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand Locationcmd = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand( "SELECT Location FROM tracker WHERE Location = IsOnline = '1'"); Locationcmd.Parameters.Add("?PKID", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = userId; Locationcmd.Connection = conn; conn.Open(); MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDataReader LocationReader = Locationcmd.ExecuteReader(); while (LocationReader.Read()) { Location1 = LocationReader.GetString(0); //Location2 = LocationReader.GetString(1); // This does not work.. } LocationReader.Close(); conn.Close(); // IP Display MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand Checkcmd = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand( "SELECT UserName FROM tracker WHERE PKID = ?PKID"); Checkcmd.Parameters.Add("?PKID", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = userId; Checkcmd.Connection = conn; conn.Open(); object UserExists = Checkcmd.ExecuteScalar(); conn.Close(); if(UserExists == null) { MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand Insertcmd = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand( "INSERT INTO tracker (PKID, UserName, IpAddress, IsOnline) VALUES (?PKID, ?Username, ?IpAddress, 1)"); Insertcmd.Parameters.Add("?IpAddress", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15).Value = Request.UserHostAddress; Insertcmd.Parameters.Add("?Username", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = UserName; Insertcmd.Parameters.Add("?PKID", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = userId; Insertcmd.Connection = conn; conn.Open(); Insertcmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); conn.Close(); } else { MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand Updatecmd = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand( "UPDATE tracker SET IpAddress = ?IpAddress, IsOnline = '1' WHERE UserName = ?Username AND PKID = ?PKID"); Updatecmd.Parameters.Add("?IpAddress", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15).Value = Request.UserHostAddress; Updatecmd.Parameters.Add("?Username", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = UserName; Updatecmd.Parameters.Add("?PKID", MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDbType.VarChar, 255).Value = userId; Updatecmd.Connection = conn; conn.Open(); Updatecmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); conn.Close(); } } } } Can anyone advise me on what I should be doing (even if its just a "you should be using this command) if this is not correct? In fact any pointers would be nice !Thanks everyone!

I have a Master Package which calls a group of other packages out on the SSIS Package Store using parent / child and a number of variables. These seem to work when passing various audit information (audit key, record counts, etc) but when I try to pass a variable for the connection string and assign it via an expression to the connection manager, I get the Master Package writing to the correct database and the children package writing to their "default" database which is supplied as the default value in the variables which should be populated by the parent task.
i.e., I end up with my master package audit information in database a and child package audit and transactions in database b, even though the packages associated with these transactions are supposed to be reading the connection string from a parent variable. Any clues or suggestions?
Edit: It is still passing along the correct parent audit information and record counts, it's just not connecting to the correct database by the variables holding the connect string
Thanks for your time.

I'm currently developing an RDF application which need to handle lots of datatypes. But I want to use SQL-Servers capabilities for efficient querying and sorting. Therefore, I've wanted to create a Main Table which stores a Reference to the Table where the Data is stored. The Data itself should get stored in a Datatype-specific Table.
The Typed Table might get created by something like:
public void CreateTypedLiterals(Type type)
{
String sql = String.Format(
"CREATE TABLE [Literals_{1}] (" +
"ID int DISTINCT NOT NULL, Value {1})",
// BUG: does not work
// WARNING: introduces a potential sql-injection problem
type.ToString()
);
...
As you can see on the statements this solution makes many troubles. So I've wanted to implement it in a more fine way using a DataTable:
[SqlProcedure]
public void CreateTypedLiterals(Type type)
{
DataTable TypedLiterals =
new DataTable(
String.Format("Literals_{0}", type.ToString()));
TypedLiterals.Columns.Add(
"ID", typeof(int), "DISTINCT NOT NULL");
TypedLiterals.Columns.Add("Value", type);
...
But I have totally no Idea how to fetch this result into the existing Database. It might be cool to simply access the Database as it would be a .NET Dataset in the form:
using(Microsoft.SqlServer.Server)
{
CurrentDatabase.Tables.Add(TypedLiterals);
}
But this is afaik not possible. Has anybody an idea how to solve this issure?
I am trying to dynamically create subtotals base on values in a column. I also have to group by year. I have gotten the group by year. I used the (previous function) to check for the year and col1 not being equal. I am getting the first subtotal back, don't know how to proceed in my function to return the remaining subtotals
i.e.
col1 col2 col3
aaa 111 2005
bbb 222 2006

ccc 444 2005
ccc 555 2006

ddd 888 2007
2005
aaa subtotal: 1
ccc subtotal: 1
total: 2
2006
aaa subtotal: 1
bbb subtotal: 3
ccc subtotal: 1
total: 5
2007

Hi there!
I have a certain scenario and would like to know if it would be recommendable to try and realize it through RS.
I have a matrix of sales data (countries, regions, categories, total sales, Year-To-Date, changes, etc.) that need to be shown on charts. The charts themselves have a single format (bars). The out put needed is a relatively large number of charts (3000+) that would allow for a great number of comparisons (country to country, region to region, etc.). All these charts share a single layout. What would be varying greatly are the values and the labels attached to the elements on the chart (labels of the bars, title of the chart, legend, footnotes, etc.)
My plan is the follwoing:
- create a .net module that would prepare the data for the chart. This would be done with two tables
- parent table with general information
- child table with the the values for the bars and the labels
- Create a parametrized report in RS that accepts the Id of a report from the parent table
- Call this report for each and every report that can be found in the parent table
I would really appreciate any information of the feasabilitiy of this plan. I have worked a lot with Crystal before, but I don't have it anymore and will be using RS from now on. I haven't really started working with RS as of yet, but would need to know if this is "doable" with RS!
Thank you very much in advance for your replies!

I will be thankful.

I am having SP which gives, two result sets. The columns which are coming from result sets are also dynamic.
i.e. some time 5 columns and some time 10 columns.
Now I want to load this output into 2 different tables on daily basis. This would be truncate/delete table and load again.
Now my problem is that as I am not sure about columns, Is it possible to create table(Physical Table) depends on output of SP, and after load data into it.
During each load we can drop table, No issue and we can handle this through SSIS Package.
Hi,
There is a table exists in a database, I have to write a stored procedure to create the same table in different database, with the same column name and field. This should be done in runtime. Is it possible. The table will be passed as a parameter to the stored procedure.
I have a need to create a database, and then populate it. However, thecode below doesn't work as I hoped it might (it creates the table inthe "master" database, which is Not A Good Thing). I know already(thanks Tony!) that if you use Dynamic SQL for the USE command, thenthe subsequent operations need to be Dynamic SQL as well, which is apity since there are over 11,000 lines of it and I don't really fancydebugging it!Does anyone have a cunning plan? In a nutshell, I would like to beable to:1. Create a new database with a derived name - as in the case below aname based on the year, though it might be month as well.2. Create and populate tables in this new database.These operations would ideally be running from a scheduled job.Any thoughts?TIAEdward====================================USE MASTERDECLARE @DBName VARCHAR(123)SET @DBName = 'MyTest_' + CAST((Year(Getdate())) AS Varchar)if not exists(select dbid from master.dbo.sysdatabases where name =@DBName)exec('CREATE DATABASE ' + @DBName)elseraiserror('Database already exists.',3, 1)EXEC ('USE ' + @DBName)if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id =object_id(N'[dbo].[TestTable]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable')= 1)drop table [dbo].[TestTable]GOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestTable] ([TestID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Description] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GO

Log-in access web-page.When page is accessed a stored procedure is executed that will provide a list of all the RA(Problem -- when a new building is added, this stored procedure must be opened and syntax added)..Results are stored in a drop down list on the page.Create a table holds list of all buildings something similar to this
Create Table [dbo].[BuildingInformation] (
ID INT IDENTITY NOT NULL,
BuildingName varchar(50),
RAName varchar(50)
[code]....
Alter the stored procedure so that when it is run it will iterate the BuildingInformation table and compare the value in BuildingInformation to the values in the field BuildingName of the view [RA]. If all buildings contained in the table [BuildingInformation] exist in the view [RA] nothing will change. If their are values in the [BuildingInformation] table that do not exist in the view [RA], the view [RA] will be dropped and recreate with a 'Union ALL' for each building in the table

@pageSize int,
@previousMaxId int
