Keeping Dynamic DateTime Variable Static
Apr 28, 2007
In one step of an SSIS package, i create an outgoing XLS filename based on the current datetime setting, a la:
"myFileName_" + (DT_WSTR,4)YEAR( getdate()) + RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)MONTH( getdate()),2)+
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DAY( getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("hh", getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("mi", getdate()),2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("ss", getdate()),2) +".xls"
which provides the format as myFileName_yyyymmddhhmmss.xls.
This value is then assigned to a variable, user::myFilenameDateTime.
This variable is referred to in various steps which need the full pathname or filename.
I found, though, that in subsequent steps, the value for user::myFilenameDateTime is re-calculated whenever the variable is invoked.
So in one Task i created the physical output XLS file and named it "correctly", eg, myFileName_20070428090204.xls; in the next Task, i call a Stored Procedure in SQL Server 2005 to email the file with a corresponding message (that pulls in more data from the database).
The single Parameter to the Stored Procedure (that does the emailing) is the supposed/expected full Pathname of the outgoing file just produced but the parameter no longer represents the original filename -- and has changed slightly (a few seconds have been added) and the filename is now, myFileName_20070428090210.xls; consequently, my Email Distribution program cannot find the file with that specific name, although File = myFilename_20070428090204.xls does certainly exist.
so it appears that these variables are calculated realtime whenever encountered.
1) Am I misunderstanding something or misusing the variable assignment?
2) How can i keep << myFileName_yyyymmddhhmmss.xls >>, "static" throughout the duration of the overal SSIS Process.
3) I would think that even if I assign the derived myFileName value initially to ANOTHER "static" variable, this won't achieve anything because the new variable will be re-calculated again, as well, when it is invoked.
thx/spirits,

Hi I'm new to MS SQL and trying to write a very small dynamic stored procedure which is giving me a headache.
What I have is:
CREATE PROCEDURE busy_report
@TableName varchar(255),
@reporteddate datetime=NULL
AS
if @reporteddate is null
select @reporteddate = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
-- Create a variable @SQLStatement
DECLARE @SQLStatement varchar(255)
SET DATEFORMAT dmy
-- Enter the dynamic SQL statement into the
-- variable @SQLStatement
SELECT @SQLStatement = "SELECT vendor, reporteddate, count(vendor) FROM " +
@TableName + "WHERE reporteddate = ' "
+ @reporteddate + " '"
-- Execute the SQL statement
EXEC(@SQLStatement)
GO
The error I keep getting is:
Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 4, Procedure busy_report, Line 0
Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
Any ideas appreciated.
(Edit:)
I've also tried it this way:
CREATE PROCEDURE UK_busy_report
@TableName varchar(255),
@reporteddate datetime=NULL
AS
-- Create a variable @SQLStatement
DECLARE @SQLStatement varchar(255)
SELECT @reporteddate=CONVERT(datetime, @reporteddate)
IF @@ERROR <> 0 BEGIN
/* Do some error processing */
PRINT 'Error Occured' END
ELSE
-- Enter the dynamic SQL statement into the
-- variable @SQLStatement
SELECT @SQLStatement = "SELECT vendor, reporteddate, count(vendor) FROM " +
@TableName + "WHERE reporteddate = ' "
+ @reporteddate + " '"
-- Execute the SQL statement
EXEC(@SQLStatement)
GO
Which gives me the same error!
.logic.

dear experts,
i heard in a session, that the tables which are modifying continuously are known as dynamic tables.and which are not are known as static tables.
my question is how to find the statics to judge static and dynamic tables?

Hi All,
We're currently preparing for a project for a bank client of ours where we would be using SQL Server 2008's data mining capabilities.
In the context of the out-of-the-box algorithms of SQL08 does the algorithms Logistics, Clustering and Logistic Regression includes Dynamic Logistics, Dynamic Clustering and Dynamic Logistic Regression?
Regards,
Joseph

I have gotten mixed comments on this topic. I have a 64 bit machine running 64 windows 2003 standard and 64 SQL 2005 standard with 8 GB of RAM. We want to upgrade it to 32 GB. What is the best approach to do this? Dynamic or Stattic giving min and max server memory a value ? and if static what value should I use for 32 GB knowing that this box is only being used for SQL.

I want to distinguish between static SQL, dynamic SQL, and embeddedSQL, but couldn't find too much useful resources in the web.For example, if we put SQL statements (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, etc...)inside an application (e.g. Java application, VB application, etc...),do we consider those SQL statements as static SQL? or embedded SQL?How about dynamic SQL? any practical examples?Please advise. thanks!!

Hi!
I have a function that uses a constant value on its calculations. This value is defined on a table. I don't want to query this table everytime I call the function (I call it on a loop from my Java code). Is there anything like a static variable I could use?
Thank you!

Hi every one,
Could you please anyone tell me how to have static and dynamic columns in a matrix?
We can add static columns by right clicking detail text box and add column. But it will repeat for each column group. I need static columns in the dynamic columns level itself.
Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to setup a dynamic ole db connection using the SA user ID, it has to be dynamic because the server name will change and it has to be SA because we're pulling information from system databases that some users don't have access to.
If I setup a regular static connection using SA credentials it works like a charm of course. When I create an expression to use the User:erver variable it doesn't work, it throws an error message saying that "The login failed for user sa" among other things, I'm thiking that the sa's password is not being saved.
Where exactly do I place a password for dynamic connections using sql server users? On the connection string? On the password property of the source? Any ideas?

I am struggling figuring out the token from a CMDEXEC job (as opposed to TSQL Job). It is not an option to execute the command by enabling the executing CMDs via TSQL, which is why I am using the agent. I have seen the Microsoft Site on tokens but all examples seem to be oriented to TSQL Job Type.
I am trying to delete a particular trace file and at same time keeping the SQL Directory dynamic.Taking it a step further is adding in "deleting if file exist".
del $(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(SQLDIR)) + "LogTestTrace.trc"

I'm using Delphi 2006 to create a DLL which will be integrated into SQL 2005. It's been a long road and I've made a lot of headway, however I am currently having the following problem creating the stored procedure:
My dll name is 'Crystal_Reports_Test_01'
In the DLL, my class is named 'Class01'.
In the DLL, my procedure is named 'TestMe'
I've managed to integrate the DLL into SQL using the following statement:
CREATE ASSEMBLY TEST_ERIC_01
AUTHORIZATION dbo
FROM 'c:mssqlassembliescrystalreports.dll'
WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE
I am attempting to create the stored procedure which points to the 'TestMe' method inside of the DLL. FYI: 'CrystalReports' is the namespace above my class that I had to add in order to get it to locate the class. The following code is used to create the stored procedure:
create procedure dbo.Crystal_Reports_Test_01(
@Parm1 nvarchar(255)
)
as external name TEST_ERIC_01.[CrystalReports.Class01].TestMe
But I get the following error:
Msg 6573, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Crystal_Reports_Test_01, Line 1Method, property or field 'TestMe' of class 'CrystalReports.Class01' in assembly 'CrystalReports' is not static.
I'm not sure what this means exactly. I think it means the method (the procedure) is not using Static method binding but should be. I have no idea what this really means or how to accomplish this in the DLL - or if I'm even going about this in the right way.
Any help would be appreciated ! I'll post the Delphi code (DLL) below.
Thanks,
Eric Gooden
library CrystalReports;uses System.Reflection, System.Runtime.InteropServices;...................type Class01 = class public procedure TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export; end;procedure Class01.TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export;begin sVarString:= 'Lets change the value and see if the stored proc. gets the change.';end;end.

I have some data in Excel - sheet1 which would be static.
Now I need to import data from SQL Server (using a query) and Union above static data with this SQL data and later I will have to create PowerPivot table in Sheet2.
Which is suitable option for me to import data from SQL to excel as I see "From SQL Server" option under "Data" and "Power Query" tab as well.
How to merge above SQL data with existing static data?

Hi!
Is there any way to use datetime value as dynamic filter in the Merge Replication?
(Yeah, I use HOST_NAME in order to pass datetime value)
I used all possible approaches, but or I got the error
Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 241)
or I got 0 rows on the subscriber after synchronization.
Any ideas how it can be solved?
Thanks

In the old DTS package, we can use Active-x script to set the variable value:
DTSGlobalVariables("MessageData").Value = "This is a test"
How do we do the same thing on the SSIS?

Hello,
I have a DateTime variable called CurrentDate that needs to reflect the current date, but the date portion only. I checked several functions in the Expression Builder to use with GETDATE() so that I could just get the date portion, but I didn't see anything that really fit. In a SQL query I would normally use CONVERT to do this.
Any ideas?
Thank you for your help!

I was not able to find the solution myself so here I am to ask you.
I'm using an Ole DB Source with the SQL command from variable.
My variable expression needs to look like this:
select * from dbo.fx_function (SomeDateVariable)
My sql server fx_function recieves as a parameter datetime, my variable SomeDateVariable is datetime type.
I tried all different types of cast on @User :: SomeDateVariable but I either can't evaluate the expression or I have errors trying to execute the package.
Any ideas how the expression should look like?
I'll keep trying...

Hi guys
I have a trigger which retrieves database names from a table.
I need to use this retrieved database name in another sql insert statement as a variable
e.g. set @mydbname = Select .... from.. (to get the database name)
then..
insert into @mydbname.dbo.emplTable
At the moment it reads @mydbname as the string "@mydbname" not the value the variable holds
I need the database name as a variable because i have to write to the correct database (there are 15)
Any help appreciated

Hi,
I've a roblem with table variables in dynamic sql context.
If i use it with normal sql there is of course no problem.
Simplified it looks like this:
-- Standard SQL ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @TestTable as TABLE(MyBigInt bigint NOT NULL, Myint int NOT NULL);
INSERT @TestTable SELECT 4711,10
SELECT* FROM @TestTable
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If i do the same thing in dynamic sql, i get errors.
-- Dynamic SQL ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLARE @DynamicTestTable as Table(MyBigInt bigint NOT NULL, Myint int NOT NULL);
DECLARE @SQLString as nvarchar(max), @Parameters as nvarchar(2000);
SET @Parameters = N'@DynamicTestTableOUT as Table(MyBigInt bigint NOT NULL, Myint int NOT NULL) OUTPUT';
SET @SQLString= N'INSERT @DynamicTestTableOUT SELECT 4711,10';
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLString, @Parameters, @DynamicTestTableOUT = @DynamicTestTable OUTPUT ;
SELECT* FROM @DynamicTestTable;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is wrong with tis code? Or are table variables not supported inside dynamic SQL?
Thanks in advance
