i'm an sql server beginer. i was wondering if some of you guys can help me out. i need for the sql server to be able to read an outside file (just text) and be able to run a script that will insert it in the database. it's a dcc output file. we've tried running this script:
DROP TABLE tests go DECLARE @SQLSTR varchar(255) SELECT @SQLSTR = 'ISQL -E -Q"dbcc checkdb(master)"' CREATE TABLE tests (Results varchar(255) NOT NULL) INSERT INTO tests EXEC('master..xp_cmdshell ''ISQL -E -Q"dbcc checkdb(master)"''')
and it's running good but the problem is the results of the dbcc here did not come from a file but directly after executing the dcc command. is there a way to do it?

We have an extensive set of SSIS packages that run daily to build our datawarehouse. We have run into a bit off a maintenance issue which I am hoping someone can help me with. The SSIS packages execute stored procedures. What I would like to know is, is there a quick way to determine what SSIS package is running a certain stored procedure?
My first approach was to load the packages into a table in a database using various xml functions. Basically, the table would contain the package name, and then the stored procedures that package executes. I have run into some difficulties with this though. Has anyone tried anything similar or perhaps know of a tool which could provide similar functionality?

I have a requirement to create a package that takes all files in a given folder and adds them to a single archive (.zip) file. I've tried several methods using 7zip and while I can create archives for every file in the directory I can't seem to get them into a single .zip file.
I actually am just looking for some supporting documentation on some facets of SQL Server.As far as I have always known, when anyone does a READ from a SQL Server database (SELCT * from <TABLE>), SQL Server does not create a log record...since there's no data or database structure being modified. A colleague is under the impression READ's are logged operations.
Hi All,I have come up against a wall which i cannot get over.I have an sql db where the date column is set as a varchar (i know, should have used datetime but this was done before my time and i've got to work with what is there). The majority of values are in the format dd/mm/yyyy. However, some values contain the word 'various'.I'm attempting to compare the date chosen on a c# .net page with the values in the db and also return all the 'various' values as well.I have accomplished casting the varchar to a datetime and then comparing to the selected date on the .net page. However, it errors when it comes across the 'various' entrant.Is there anyway to carry out a select statement comparing the start_date values in the db to the selected date on the .net page and also pull out all 'various' entrants at the same time without it erroring? i thought about replacing the 'various' to a date like '01/01/2010' so it doesn't stumble over the none recognised format, but am unsure of how to do it.This is how far i have got: casting the varchar column to datetime and comparing. SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE Cast(SUBSTRING(Start_Date,4,2) + '/' + SUBSTRING(Start_Date,1,2) + '/' +SUBSTRING(Start_Date,7,4) as datetime) '" + date + "'"Many thanks in advance!
I have few config files with db passwords in them. I have to change passwords daily into that(as my system is in UAT phase now). I have deployed my packages on SQL Server.
My question is , do I need to deploy my packages daily after password updation, or it'll automatically taken care by the SQL Server ?
