Merge Replication W/ Dynamic Row Filter - Not 'dynamic' After First Initial Sync?
May 2, 2007
If anyone could confirm...
SQL Server 2000 SP4 to multiple SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on PDAs. My DB on SQL2k is published with a single dynamic row filter using host_name() on my 'parent' table and also join filters from parent to child tables. The row filter uses joins to other tables elsewhere that are not published to evaluate what data is allowed through the filter.
E.g. Published parent table that contains suppliers names, etc. while child table is suppliers' products. The filter queries host_name(s) linked to suppliers in unpublished table elsewhere.
First initial sync with snapshot is correct and as I expected - PDA receives only the data from parent (and thus child tables) that matches the row filter for the host_name provided.
However - in my scenario host_name <--> suppliers may later be updated E.g. more suppliers assigned to a PDA for use or vice versa. But when I merge the mobile DB, the new data is not downloaded? Tried re-running snapshot, etc., no change.
Question: I thought the filters would remain dynamic and be applied on each sync?
I run a 'harmless' update on parent table using TSQL e.g. "update table set 'X' = 'X'" and re-sync. Now the new parent records are downloaded - but the child records are not!
Question: I wonder why if parent records are supplied, why not child records?
If I delete existing DB and sync new, I get the updated snapshot and all is well - until more data added back at server...
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is it possible (or not) to have dynamic filters run during second or subsequent merge?

Brand new to SQL Server 2005 and replication, I was able to use online books info to get a replication topology set up (using wizards) and successfully replicate an article (a single table) to a SQL Server Express database.
I then cleared the subscription table and added a simple dynamic filter (colx = SUSER_SNAME()), which I can't get to work. Based on what I read, I'm thinking that SUSER_SNAME() is not returning the proper value because the merge agent is set to connect to the publisher and distributor by 'impersonating the process account'. This is on the subscription merge agent security form. However, 'using a SQL Server login' is greyed out and nothing I tried will enable it, including setting up logins and SQL user ids on the publisher and playing with entries on the publication properties data partitions page, etc.
I think that I have discovered only some of the pieces that I need and not enough details to find the rest and put them together. Any info on what to have set up where would be appreciated. Any suggestions for 'step by step' information that would help in addition to SQL Server 2005 Books Online would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ...
I am working on a project where the server version of application has vouchers from different entities. I have created a publication manually. My next step was to create a client subscription using rmo and to execute a pull. This part works fine. Code samples from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms147314.aspx
My next step would be to implement dynamic filtering using the guid of the entity as a parameter.
I dont want to use suser_sname() or host_name() as I want to use a fixed login for the replication for all users, and a client could have several host dbs (sql express, sql mobile)
My goal would be to pass a guid-value to the HostName Property of the MergePullSubscription class and convert it to an uniquidentifier and use it as a filter as I have not found any other way to pass a guid as a filter.
RMO-Code:
subscription.HostName = "4bb0e468-c68a-4253-ba82-f71c3a6e302d"
Filter:
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[voucher] WHERE [entity_ID] = dbo.fx_ConvertHostToEntity()
Function:
create function fx_ConvertHostToEntity()
returns uniqueidentifier
as
Begin
declare @host nvarchar(50)
set @host = host_name()
declare @entity uniqueidentifier
set @entity = cast( @host as uniqueidentifier)
return @entity
End
When trying to set the filter sql server complains that a character string cannot be casted to a uniqueidentifier - so i can not set this filter. Is there a way to pass a parameter other then the username or the hostname as a filter?
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[voucher] WHERE [entity_ID] =@entity, where @entity is a guid
Thanks for your support

Hi!
I'm a merge newbie and have a couple of questions. I'm about to setup a merge replication with Sql Server 2005 and Sql Server CE as a subscriber. Situation is like this, we have 10 service technicians using pda.
I want to each pda user have their own data. What I understand I need to use dynamic filter and SUSER_NAME()?? Do I need to create a "translation" table to map my system's UserId against SUSER_NAME? How have you solved this problem?

Hi,
I would like to setup a merge replication from a main database (publisher), to around 100 client databases (subscribers), that contain only subset information for each distinct client: each client has then its own database to view and modify its own data (Filtered on rows and columns). The client databases will initially be hosted on the same SQL server Instance.
I don't want to setup manually 100 publications with static filters, and more may come in the future: a pain to setup and maintain because I have to configure the tables, the columns and the row filters (and joins) each time.
I would like then to setup one publication with a dynamic filter, to filter in a way or another on a specific client. Creating subscribers becomes then a piece of cake. The dynamic filter would apply based on a property specific to the client, but... HOW?
Filtering on HOST_NAME() will not work because several subscribers are on the same server.
Filtering on SUSER_SNAME() will not work because merge agent will always use the same user name for connecting to the publisher (using push subcription, all merge agents are on the same server), and I have not find out how it can be configured by merge agent: even if the merge agent jobs have different owner, it is always the SQL Server Agent login that is used to connect to the publisher (I am using windows authentication).
I was thinking about using DB_NAME(), and have specific db name for each client DB, but DB_NAME() provides the name of the publisher DB, not the subscriber DB. etc ...
What could I use in this case to dynamically filter on client data without having to fall into heavy replication administration and setup.
Thanks for your help,
Best regards

Hello Everyone,
I have a publication on a Sql 2000 (SP4) server. This publication has dynamic filtering enabled. What I want to do is create an interface which will generate a new dynamic snapshot based on filtering input from users. So far I can create the dynamic snapshot easy enough and I can see the filtered results on a Sql 2000 subscriber. However, there seems to be no way to configure a mobile database to point to the dynamic snapshot. This is easy to configure in a Sql 2000 subscription - the options are right there are on the properties page. Yet, it seems like the mobile database only points to the required unfiltered snapshot through the IIS proxy.
Is there any way to force the mobile database to use the dynamic snapshot instead?
Thanks,
Mike

All,
I am trying to configure merge replication to a SQL CE database using web synchronization.
It works if IIS is on the same box as the SQL Server publisher but when I attempt this using separate boxes I get the following message.
Getting this message

Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201001
I have followed every bit of advice I can find in the MSDN forums, ensuring that the distributor is writing to a UNC and that the perms for the process are correct.
The 2 test servers are not in a domain and I wonder if this is the issue but connectivity between the 2 servers does not appear to be an issue as I am using administrative ids for connectivity for this test.
BOL is all over the place regarding this subject and I am linked out (perhaps the info I need is in there but who can find it?)
Any guidance would be truly appreciated.

We are running merge replication. My identity value was out of sync and the inserts stopped working. I Reseeded the identity value to 1500000 and ran "sp_adjustpublisheridentity" which set that to the new range (and table constraint)Â in the MSMerge file and table. I discovered my error and Reseeded the table back to 150000. How to I get the new range to be created when it is LESS than 1500000 in the MsMerge file???? Can I use the sp_restoreidentity....???

I am using a merge publication set to synchronize schema changes. Why am I getting the following message when I try to sync after having added columns in the publication database using ALTER TABLE statements?
The schema definition of the destination table ... in the subscription database does not match the schema definition of the source table in the publication database. Reinitialize the subscription without a snapshot after ensuring that the schema definition of the destination table is the same as the source table.
Also, why doesn't reinitializing the subscription with @upload_first = false not fix the problem?

I have the merge replication (Push)Â for SQL Server 2008.The right-click option for Start and Stop Synchronizing in subscriptions has been disabled. How can I stop the merge replication and start again ?
This error happened 1 week after I created the merge replication. The merge data cannot sync to subscriber and only solution I can use is drop and re-create the merge replication again but error would be re-occur a week later. The merge replication work fine before and start from middle on May 2015, but it keep happen right now.

Here is what I am trying to do in SSRS 2005.
Setting up filters based on parameters with an expression like this:
=Iif(Parameters!Company.Value = "", "", Fields!company.Value)
In the wizard we are creating, we are also letting the user choose the operator for each parameter that they choose. My question is how can I change the filter dynamically based on the user choosing a specific parameter and also choosing an operator to associate with that parameter??
Example 1: User 1 chooses the Company parameter to filter their report, and they choose the parameter to equal (=) a specific value. So the filter expression would be like the one previously mentioned and the operator would be an equal sign.
Example 2: User 2 chooses the Company parameter to filter their report, and they choose the parameter to be LIKE a specific value. So the filter expression would be like the one previously mentioned and the operator would be LIKE.
How can I do this?
Thanks in advance for your help.

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

I have a requirement to add the ability to filter a report by partial last name, at the report level (i.e. not at the database server). In case someone else needs to work out how to do this, here is what I did.
Add a Parameter to the report. In my case it is named LastName, is non-queried, allows Null or Blank, and has a default of null.
Add a filter to the dataset that contains the field to be searched. Set its Expression to:
=IIF(Parameters!LastName.Value = System.DBNull.Value OR Parameters!LastName.Value = "",
Fields!LastName.Value, Nothing) ,
its operator to "="
and its value to =IIF(Parameters!LastName.Value = Nothing OR Parameters!LastName.Value = "", Nothing, Parameters!LastName.Value & "*")
voila!

I have several SQL Mobile devices (WM5) syncronizing with a SQL 2005 database through merge replication. We are using the HOST_NAME parameter to filter several tables. A few of these filters use a sub-query to filter the data because of the complexity of the filter (need to do more than join to one table). The subquery will use the HOST_NAME parameter. For example, I want to get a list of all users in the current user's company I need to use host_name to get the current user, find their company ID, then filter the user table on that company ID.
Everything works fine until a user is removed from the table. In that case, the delete statement is not replicated to the device until they reinitialize the mobile database.
Thanks for the help!!

Hi;
We are performing merge replication between SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Mobile with more than 1100 handheld, and recently replications are terminating with eror code 80040E19.
We can only avoid the problem by deleting the related user's partition directory and reruning the related user's dynamic snapshot.
Any advice on this issue would be appreciated

We have a table in an SQL Server 2012 database that stores tree-like structures. Simplified for the purpose of my question, it has the following format:
Id int identity,
ParentId int,
GroupId int
Each record of the table represents an object identified by Id. An object may or may not have a parent in the same table, such that object.ParentId = parentObject.Id. A root object has ParentId = NULL. There are multiple root objects, so the table in fact stores multiple trees. What’s important is that the tree depth is not fixed, i.e. theoretically there can be any number of ancestor generations for an object. GroupId is a property of a root object; in theory none of the children of a root object has to have GroupId <> NULL; it can be assumed that any child has the same GroupId value as its root object.
A sample table having two roots (one grandparent and one parent), one non-root parent/child and 4 child roots:
Id ParentId GroupId
----------------------------------------------------------
1 NULL 200 root grandparent
2 1 NULL non-root parent/child
3 2 NULL child
4 2 NULL child
5 NULL 300 root parent
6 5 NULL child
7 5 NULL child
The table is not normalised, i.e. there’s no separate {root_object : group} table. However I don’t think normalising the table would solve the problem.
Now the problem. We need to set up merge replication from the table above (Master table) to the table of the same format in another DB. We need to replicate only those rows of the Master table that have a certain fixed GroupId value, e.g. 200 in the example above. If we ensure that GroupId in all descendant objects of a root object has the same value in the table as the root object itself that would be trivial. The table would look like this:
Id ParentId GroupId
----------------------------------------------------------
1 NULL 200 root grandparent
2 1 200 non-root parent/child
3 2 200 child
4 2 200 child
5 NULL 300 root parent
6 5 300 child
7 5 300 child
And the filter would look like this:
WHERE GroupId = 200
However out of performance considerations, we would like to avoid if possible filling GroupId for the descendant objects, because as it must be clear from the above, GroupId for a descendant object is quite easily deducible via a stored procedure or UDF (just need to go up the tree until ParentId = NULL). The problem is, I don’t know how to achieve this in a merge replication filter: it would only allow WHERE conditions and joins. I’ve have not had much luck with joins for merge replication in general, but here we have more complex algorithm, because the number of tree levels can be different for every object. And merge replication would not allow using UDF…

Hello,
I have data coming in from two sources, one being SQL and the other being Oracle. The end result needs to be a CSV file with the columns in a specific order. I have a Data Flow task setup that takes both sources and does a Merge Join on them. I can add a Sort Transformation and manually set the sorting of all 156 columns that end up going to a CSV file destination. However, I have a table setup that holds the names of the 156 columns and the order that the CSV file expects them to be in. I would much rather do this step dynamically as the column names and order may change in the future. Anyone who has used the Sort Transformation for a large number of columns knows how tedious it can be and how adding a column in the middle will cause you to change the sort # for each of the columns that come after it.
So I added a Script Component between the Merge Join and the Flat File Destination hoping that I could alter the order of the columns there. However I added the following code and found that the SortKeyPosition is ReadOnly.
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim column As IDTSInputColumn90
For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection
column.SortKeyPosition = 1
Next
End Sub
I was hoping to add some code to get the sort index from my table for each of the columns and set it to the SortKeyPosition. Has anyone out there done this before or seen an example that might point me in the right direction? I've searched for 2 days without coming up with much.
Thanks!

Hi Craig/Kamal,
I got your email address from your web cast. I really enjoyed the web cast and found it to be
very informative.
Our company is planning to use SSIS (VS 2005 / SQL Server 2005). I have a quick question
regarding the product. I have looked for the information on the web, but was not able to find
relevant information.
We are getting Source data from two of our client in the form of Excel Sheet. These Excel sheets
Are generated using reporting services. On examining the excel sheet, I found out that the name
Of the columns contain data itself, so the names are not static such as Jan 2007 Sales, Feb 2007 Sales etc etc.
And even the number of columns are not static. It depends upon the range of date selected by the user.
I wanted to know, if there is a way to import Excel sheet using Integration Services by defining the position
Of column, instead of column name and I am not sure if there is a way for me to import excel with dynamic
Number of columns.
Your help in this respect is highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hi Anthony, I am glad the Web cast was helpful.
Kamal and I have both moved on to other teams in MSFT and I am a little rusty in that area, though in general dynamic numbers of columns in any format is always tricky. I am just assuming its not feasible for you to try and get the source for SSIS a little closer to home, e.g. rather than using Excel output from Reporting Services, use the same/some form of the query/data source that RS is using.
I suggest you post a question on the SSIS forum on MSDN and you should get some good answers.

Hi,
I have a need to display on screen AND email a pdf report to email addresses specified at run time, executing the report with a parameter specified by the user. I have looked into data driven subscriptions, but it seems this is based on scheduling. Unfortunately for the majority of the project I will only have access to SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Production system is Enterprise), so I cannot investigate thoroughly.
So, is this possible using data driven subscriptions? Scenario is:
1. User enters parameter used for query, as well as email addresses.
2. Report is generated and displayed on screen.
3. Report is emailed to addresses specified by user.
Any tips on how to get this working?
Thanks

I am working on to convert my static Store procedure to Dynamic.
I have created a Store procedure with Merge statement which is inserting new record and updating existing record.
This SP I will use in SSIS Insted of Data Flow Task I will run in Execute SQL Task.
Now my biggest problem is I dont know how to convert static code toi dynamic
Below is my Store procedure code.
As you can see my Source Query
I have a filemaster table as shown below which consist of Input filename,Source table ,Destination table and BBX expression.
Input_FilenameSourceTableName DestinationTableName BBxKeyDerExpr
CCTFB ImportBBxCctfb ArchiveBBxCctfb SUBSTRING(Col001,1,6)
CEMXR ImportBBxCemxr ArchiveBBxCemxr SUBSTRING(Col001,1,10)
In my source query I want to change the value of Source table ,Destination table and BBX expression dynamically on the basis of input file.
Purpose of making dynamic is that I have created separate sp for all the input, my clients want to have sungle dynamic sp which will execute on the basis of input file.this input file name I wil get fromm variable which i have created in SSIS Package.
Lets consider @File_name is the variable in package which store the file name
if file name is CCTFB then my query should take the Source table ,Destination table and BBX expression value from file master table.
Like that I have 100 of source query and evry query have diffrent number of columns. How can I change the column number in uodate and insert statement dynamically on run time.
CAST(SUBSTRING(Col001,1,6) + SUBSTRING(Col002,1,10) AS varchar(100)) :-It creates a key for comparing, this value i can take it from filemaster
HASHBYTES('MD5', CAST(CHECKSUM(Col001, Col002,Col003,Col004) AS varchar(max))) -here numberv of column need to be changed .
(SUBSTRING(SOURCE.Col001,1,6) + SUBSTRING(SOURCE.Col002,1,10)) this condition also i can take it from file master.
[Code] ....
I am able to get inserted and updated rowcount, but not able to get the matching records count.

I have a Stored Procedure for processing a Bill of Material.
One column on the Assembly Table is a Function Name that contains some busniess rules.
OK, now I'm doing a Proof of Concept and I'm stumped.
Huuuuh!
I will ultimately have about 100 of these things. My plan was using Dynamic SQL to go execute the function.
Note: The function just returns a bit.
So; here's what I had in mind ...
if isnull(@FnNameYN,'') <> ''
exec spinb_CheckYN @FnNameYN, @InvLineID, @FnBit = @FnBit output
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spinb_CheckYN
@FnNameYN varchar(50),
@InvLineID int,
@FnBit bit output
AS
declare @SQL varchar(8000)
set @SQL = '
if dbo.' + @FnNameYN + ' (' + convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) + ')) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0'
exec (@SQL)
GO
Obviously; @FnBit is not defined in @SQL so that execution will not work.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
Must declare the variable '@FnBit'.
So; is there a way to get a value out of a Dynamic SQL piece of code and get that value INTO my OUTPUT variable?
My many thanks to anyone who can solve this riddle for me.
Thank You!
Sigh: For now, it looks like I'll have a huge string of "IF" statements for each business rule function, as follows:
Hopefully a better solution comes to light.
------ Vertical Build1 - Std Vanes -----------
if @FnNameYN = 'fnb_YN_B1_14'
BEGIN
if dbo.fnb_YN_B1_14 (convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) ) = 1
set @FnBit = 1
else
set @FnBit = 0
END
------ Vertical Build1 - Scissor Vanes -----------
if @FnNameYN = 'fnb_YN_B1_15'
BEGIN
if dbo.fnb_YN_B1_15 (convert(varchar(31),@InvLineID) ) = 1
set @FnBit = 1

I have a requirment which i have partly accomplished , but could not get through completely
i have a file which comes in a standard format ending with date and seq number ,
suppose , the file name is abc_yyyymmdd_01 , for first copy , if it is copied more then once the sequence number changes to 02 and 03 and keep going on .
then i need to transform those in to new file comma delimited destination file with a name abc_yyyymmdd,txt and others counting file counting record abc_count_yyyymmdd.txt. and move it to a designated folder. and the source file is then moved to archived folder
what i have taken apprach is
script task select source file --------------------> data flow task------------------------------------------> script task to destination file
dataflow task -------------------------> does count and copy in delimited format
what is happening here is i can accomlish a regular source file convert it to delimited destination file --------> and move it to destination folder with script task .
but cannot work the dynamic pick of a source file.
please advise with your comments or solution you have

I am trying to create an ssis package with dynamic csv file as output. and out format contains query output.
sample file name:
Unique identifier + query output + systemdate();
The expression is looking like this.
@[User::FilePath] + @[User::FileName] + ".CSV"
-- user filepath is a variable from ssis package. File name is the output from SQL query. using script task i have assigned the values to @[User::FileName] .
When I debugged the script task the value getting properly but same variable am using for Flafile destination. but its not working.

I have created a dynamic SQL program that returns a range of columns (1 -12) based on the date range the user may select. Each dynamic column is month based, however, the date range may overlap from one year to another. Thus, the beginning month for one selection may be October 2005, while another may have the beginning month of January 2007.
Basically, the dynamic SQL is a derived Pivot table. The problem that I need to resolve is how do I now use this dynamic result set in a Report. Please keep in mind that the name of the columns change based on the date range select.
I have come to understand that a dynamic anything is a moving target!
Please advise.

Hello,
We have 5 subscribers trying to replicate via web synchronization. Two of the subscribers get the following message and the other three are fine. Any ideas on what the problem is or where to troubleshoot? Thanks in advance.
John
Error on client output:
The format of a message during Web synchronization was invalid. Ensure that replication components are properly configured at the Web server.

Hi,
is there a way to ensure a merge subscription is synchronised before it is removed from the publisher using SMO? - (it is a push subscription)
I thought I had it as there is a MergeSynchronizationAgent object on the SubscriptionDatabase object, but calling Synchronize() on this throws an exception saying it can't contact the publisher.
Any help would be really appreciated, thanks.
Graham
