Null Values In Destination
Oct 11, 2006
Hi to all!
I created a simple package €“ data flow task, containing OLE DB Source, with Data Access Mode €“ SQL command and OLE DB Destination.
My SQL command is
update support_incident
set date_closed = rn_edit_date
where status_text = 'Closed' and date_closed is null
DECLARE @CMonth as datetime
DECLARE @LMonth as datetime
SET @CMonth = '10/1/2006'
SET @LMonth = DateAdd (m, -1, @CMonth)
select
@LMonth as Reporting_Date,
(select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where rn_create_date >= @LMonth and rn_create_date < @CMonth) as Opened,
(select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where Date_Closed >= @LMonth and Date_Closed < @CMonth) as Closed,
(select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where rn_create_date < @CMonth and (Date_Closed >= @CMonth or Date_Closed is null)) as Backlog,
(select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where priority in (0,1) and (rn_create_date < Dateadd(d,-3,@CMonth)) and support_incident_id in (select support_incident_id from support_Incident where rn_create_date < @CMonth and (Date_Closed >= @CMonth or Date_Closed is null))) as Critical_Backlog,
((select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where rn_create_date < @CMonth and (Date_Closed >= @CMonth or Date_Closed is null)) - (select count(support_incident_id) from support_Incident where priority in (0,1) and (rn_create_date < Dateadd(d,-3,@CMonth)) and support_incident_id in (select support_incident_id from support_Incident where rn_create_date < @CMonth and (Date_Closed >= @CMonth or Date_Closed is null)))) as Operational_Backlog
from support_incident
where support_incident_code = '1000'
The SQL statement is successfully parsed and I can see the columns and numbers in Preview Query Results. The package is executed without errors and warnings with success. In Destination server, the table is created with columns according to query, but the problem is no numbers are written in rows, all values are nulls.
I can€™t figure out what is the reason. Can anybody to help me?
Thank you.

Dear Members,
I extracted data from a flat file using SSIS package and load them into destination table. One column contains no data. Data type of that column is varchar(9). I want to display "NULL" values in that column.
I used LOOK up transformation and used the following query.
SELECT PassThroughRouting =
CASE PassThroughRouting
WHEN 'NULL' THEN 'NULL'
END
FROM EPICWareTable
But it gives a error message.
Does any body can help me?
Thanks

I have a pivot transform that pivots a batch type. After the pivot, each batch type has its own row with null values for the other batch types that were pivoted. I want to group two fields and max() the remaining batch types so that the multiple rows are displayed on one row. I tried using the aggregate transform, but since the batch type field is a string, the max() function fails in the package. Is there another transform or can I use the aggragate transform another way so that the max() will work on a string?

I have a DTSX package which reads values from a fixed-length text file using a data reader and writes some of the column values from the file to an Oracle table. We have used this DTSX several times without incident but recently the process started inserting NULL values for some of the columns when there was a valid value in the source file. If we extract some of the rows from the source file into a smaller file (i.e 10 rows which incorrectly returned NULLs) and run them through the same package they write the correct values to the table, but running the complete file again results in the NULL values error. As well, if we rerun the same file multiple times the incidence of NULL values varies slightly and does not always seem to impact the same rows. I tried outputting data to a log file to see if I can determine what happens and no error messages are returned but it seems to be the case that the NULL values occur after pulling in the data via a Data Reader. Has anyone seen anything like this before or does anyone have a suggestion on how to try and get some additional debugging information around this error?

I have SQL Server 2012 SSIS. I have Excel source and OLE DB Destination.I have problem with importing CustomerSales column.CustomerSales values like 1000.00,2000.10,3000.30,NotAvailable.So I have decimal values and nvarchar mixed in on Excel column. This is requirement for solution.However SSIS reads only numeric values correctly and nvarchar values are set as Null. Why?
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Import_CustomerSales](
 [CustomerId] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
 [CustomeName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
 [CustomerSales] [nvarchar](50) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]

Hi
can somebody explain me how I can assign a NULL value to a datetime type field in the script transformation editor in a data flow task.
In the script hereunder, Row.Datum1_IsNull is true, but still Row.OutputDatum1 will be assigned a value '0001-01-01' which generates an error (not a valid datetime). All alternatives known to me (CDate("") or Convert.ToDateTime("") or Convert.ToDateTime(System.DBNull.Value)) were not successful.
Leaving out the ELSE clause generates following error: Error: Year, Month, and Day parameters describe an un-representable DateTime.
If Not Row.Datum1_IsNull Then
Row.OutputDatum1 = Row.Datum1
Else
Row.OutputDatum1 = CDate(System.Convert.DBNull)
End If
Any help welcome.

Hello everyone,
I am having a little problem with a simple package and I do not know if this is a known issue or that I am missing something.
I have a data flow task, a simple one, with an oledb source pulling data, using a select statement, from a sql server 2005 instance, and an ole db destination pointing to a table in a sql server 2000 instance. Both intances are standard edition. The table in the destination has a column which allow null values and has also a default constraint (getdate()), and this column is not present in the source. When I map the columns in the destination, I leave this column as "ignore", not being mapped to any column from the source. The problem is that when I execute the task, SSIS is trying to insert NULL value into this column, so the package fail with the error "can not insert NULL value into column myColumn". I wonder why is it trying to insert NULL value if the column is not mapped to any column from the source.
Is this a known issue or I am nissing something in the settings?
If the destination table has rowversion or identity columns, there is no problem ar all. I ignore those columns in the mapping and SQL Server feeds them as expected.
Thanks in advance,
Alejandro Mesa

Hi,
My query "select blah, blah, rank from tablewithscores" will return results that can legitimately hold nulls in the rank column. I want to order on the rank column, but those nulls should appear at the bottom of the list
e.g.
Rank Blah Blah
1 - -
2 - -
3 - -
NULL - -
NULL - -
At present the NULLs are at the top of the list, but I do not want my ranking in descending order. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Hi I have an SSIS package that retrieves table data from a database using an OLE DB source component.
This then passes the rows of data to a script destination component.
Within this script my code takes the row data and inserts it into the database (amongst other things).
However I have noticed that if any of the Row columns contain nulls then the component falls over with errors when run like so:
[Back Up Prize Banks [2875]] Error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Parameterized Query '(@PASId int,@ScriptName nvarchar(17),@LastModified datetime,@Pri' expects parameter @RegenerateXML, which was not supplied. at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.HandleUserException(Exception e) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.ProcessInput(Int32 inputID, PipelineBuffer buffer) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostProcessInput(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper90 wrapper, Int32 inputID, IDTSBuffer90 pDTSBuffer, IntPtr bufferWirePacket)
I have solved the problem by checking the column contents before inserting it as follows:
Before:
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML", Row.RegenerateXML)
After:
If (Row.RegenerateXML_IsNull()) Then
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML",System.DBNull.Value)
Else
Command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RegenerateXML", Row.RegenerateXML)
End If
Which is great but it does turn 1 line into 5 lines. I have 20 parameters which takes up 20 lines of code which will now be 20 x 5 = 100 lines of code.
My question is :
Is there a better way to write this code without having to take up so many lines?
Thanks
Matt.

I am copying a simple table from a Sql Server 2005 database to an *.sdf mobile database.
I am brand new to SSIS and I am probably doing something wrong. But after executing the SSIS package all the rows and all the fields are NULL in the destination database. I put a datagrid viewer between the OLE DB Source and the Sql Server compact edition destination and I can see the real data which is obviously not ALL NULL.
Does anyone have a clue as to why it would be doing this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks...

Is there any way to get the new identity values created after an OLE DB Destination has finished its inserts?
Basically my problem is this...
My source database has its primary and foreign key columns as a GUID datatype. In my conversion, my destination database will be using INT (identity) columns for primary/foreign keys. How do I propagate the foreign key relationships to the destination database in an SSIS package? So obviously I can use an OLE DB Destination to generate the data with identities for the parent table, but after that I am stuck in how to create the relationships for the child tables.
I know how to do this in TSQL fairly easily (cursor or temp tables), but it doesn't seem so simple in SSIS.
thanks in advance.

I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.
What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column.Â
I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.Â

Hi, I ve a table, I want to fetch certain rows based on the value of a Column. That column is nullable, and contains NULL values.I used the following query,SELECT Col_A FROM TABLE1 WHERE SOME_ID = 1317 AND Col_B NOT IN (8,9) Here, Col_B contains NULL values too. I need to fetch all rows where Col_B is not 8 or 9.Now, if I use "NOT IN", it does not work. I tried reading on it and got to know why it does not work. Even "NOT EXISTS" does not help. But still I've to fetch my values. How do I do that?Thanks & Regards,Jahanzeb

I have tried doing a search, as I figured this would be a common problem, but I wasn't able to find anything. I know that my SP is functional because when I use VWD execute the query outside of the webpage, I get the correct results -however I have to ensure that a field is either entered, or set to <NULL>. In my SET's I want it to use the wildcards.
What I want is to do a search (plenty of existing topics on that, however none were of help to me). If a field is entered, then it is included in the search. Otherwise it should be ignored. In my VB I have the standard stored procedure call, passing in values to all of the parameters in the stored proc below:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SearchDog@tagnum int,@ownername varchar(50), @mailaddress varchar(50),@address2 varchar(50),@city varchar(50),@telephone varchar(50),@doggender varchar(50),@dogbreed varchar(50),@dogage varchar(50),@dogcolour varchar(50),@dogname varchar(50),@applicationdate varchar(50)AS IF @tagnum=-1 SET @tagnum=NULL SET @ownername = '%'+@ownername+'%' SET @mailaddress = '%'+@mailaddress+'%' SET @address2='%'+@address2+'%' SET @city = '%'+@city+'%' SET @telephone='%'+@telephone+'%' SET @dogcolour='%'+@dogcolour+'%' SET @dogbreed='%'+@dogbreed+'%' SET @dogage='%'+@dogage+'%' SET @doggender='%'+@doggender+'%' SET @dogname='%'+@dogname+'%' SET @applicationdate='%'+@applicationdate+'%'
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM DogRegistry WHERE ( TagNum = @tagnum OR OwnerName LIKE @ownername OR MailAddress LIKE @mailaddress OR Address2 LIKE @address2 OR City LIKE @city OR Telephone LIKE @telephone OR DogGender LIKE @doggender OR DogBreed LIKE @dogbreed OR DogAge LIKE @dogage OR DogColour LIKE @dogcolour OR DogName LIKE @dogname OR ApplicationDate LIKE @applicationdate ) AND TagNum > 0GO
I don't know why it is creating links inside my SP -ignore them. TagNum is the primary key, if that makes a difference.
On the webpage, it ONLY works when every field has been filled (and then it will only return 1 row, as it should, given the data entered). Debugging has shown that when nothing is entered it passes "".
Any ideas?

Would this take care of null values in either a.asset or b.asset?
SELECT convert(decimal(15,1),(sum(isnull(a.asset,0))/1000.0)+(sum(isnull(b.asset,0))/1000.0)) as total_assets
What's throwing me off is that there are multiple a.asset or b.asset for each unique ID. It seems to work, but I'm not following the logic too well. If I were doing this in another language, I would loop through, summing a.asset and b.asset wherever it's not null for each unique ID.

Hi,
How can I use "Derived Column" to check if a Datetime value is null or not and if null to insert 00/00/00 instead. ?
The background being that while using a "Derived Column" to change a Column from a (DT_DATE) to a (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) everytime I get a null value it see's it as a error.
And the column in particular has ~ 37 K blank / null fields so Im getting a lot of errors
So far I have tried to use something like
ISNULL([Column 34])
Or
SELECT ISNULL(ID, '00/00/0000') FROM [Column 34]
Or
SELECT ISNULL(au_id, '00/00/0000 00:00') AS ssn
FROM [Column 34
but none seems to work [Column 34] being the offending column.
What a normally use is just a simple "(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)[Column 34]"
in the expression column, which seems to work well, but here I get alot of errors
Any ideas?

I set up a new SQL database file, in that file I allowed nulls, When I went through code to save the record, the exception is saying it doesnt allow nulls.
Before I get to involved with SQL, is it a bad practice to use nulls?
If it is what do you enter in place of the null value,
which will lead to more code, right?

I have a sproce that accepts null for one of its parameters I can execute the sproce and enter null and it works fine, it returns all rows. When I try doing this with my GridView and the SQLDataSource it does not work. I need some help in understanding how the SQLDatasource wants a null. Here is what the parameter row of the SQLDataSource looks like.
<asp:ControlParameter ControlID="EnteredByText" DefaultValue="Null" Name="EnteredBy" PropertyName="Text"
Type="String" ConvertEmptyStringToNull="true" />
In my sproce I have setup the parameter as follows;
@EnteredBy Nvarchar(50)=Null
In my WHERE Clause I have:
WHERE (tblClient.EnteredBy = @EnteredBy OR @EnteredBy IS NULL)

I wonder if someone out there can help me. I am writing an ASP application to query a MSSQL database. The users will be able to use one or all of 4 columns. There may be time when the columns are empty (null). How can I write a select query to ignore null values? A rough example of what I am talking about it below.
select * from table where value1='something' value2=<null> value3='something' value4=<null>
I would like to ignore the null values so that in effect the statement would just do the following.
select * from table where value1='something' and value3='something'
I realize my syntax is wrong but I think you get the idea. Any thoughts?

I have a stored procedure that allows users to select addresses based on partially supplied information from the user. My procedure seems to work fine in all but a few cases. If a user decides to select all the rows for a particular country the procedure below does not return any rows even if the rows exist. I tracked this down to the fact that for Non US countries I set both the StateCode and Country Code to nulls. .
Below is a partial version of my code. Can anyone show me how I can do a "Like" Search even if some of the fields in the row contain null values?

I have a simple table on my webpage which shows data from my database.
It all worked fine apart from one part. I wanted the select statement to select only NULL values from a column, as these are classed as open queries. Once I have closed the query a 0 or 1 will automatically be posted and will no longer have a NULL value.
I have a simple select statement (which I will post on here when I log in with my work computer) and at the end I have a WHERE Column = NULL. I have also tried WHERE column <> 0.0 AND column <>1.0 and that did not work.
If I only did WHERE column <> 1.0, i only get the 0.0 results and none of the NULL results, but if I have no WHERE statement I get all the results including the NULL values.

Hi I have a table in my database and one of the columns is called 'Month'. Here only one month is inserted according to what the user selects from a dro down list.
WHat i want to be able to do is find the average of the column 'ScoreOut' on a month by month basis. My code works fine if th database contains at least one row with every month of the year represented. I run into problems when one of the months is not represented. here is my code:string month = "February";
SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True");String selectCommand = "Select AVG(CAST(ScoreOut as float)) from tblRound where Name = '" + lblName.Text + "' AND Month = '" + month + "'";
SqlCommand myCmd = new SqlCommand(selectCommand, myConn);SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(myCmd);DataTable dt = new DataTable();
da.Fill(dt);
myConn.Open();
myCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();string info = String.Format("{0:0.00}", Convert.ToDecimal(myCmd.ExecuteScalar()));
myConn.Close();
lblHole2.Text = info;
Does anyone know how to get around this problem. If a month is not represented, i would like the label lblHole2.text to be equal to 0.

I am retrieving a <NULL> value out of a SQL database, displaying it in a text box, then updating the database with the results of the text box.
I am using the following code to make the insert.
.Parameters("@BodilyInjuryPerson").Value = txtBodilyInjuryPerson.Text
When I have values for the text string, everything runs smoothly. However, when the database originally had a <NULL> or when I want to delete the currently existing value and replace it with a <NULL>, I get an error message stating... "Input string was not in a correct format".
Back in the old days, when I was using Random Access databases, you just inserted a Char(0). But that doesn't work any more.
Could somebody help me. I know there is a magic bullet, I just don't know what it is.

Hi,
I want to perform the following select statement

from tableA
Where ....
I want to add the sum of the columns and then divide it by a constant. The problem I am having is there are a lot of nulls in the database that I am working on (i.e. one of the values in the ColB is Null, which makes the result of the entire expession null).
How do I get around this. I need to add the values of the columns?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
