OLE DB Of ODBC - Which One To Choose?
Mar 18, 2008
Hi there,
I have created an SSIS package which pushes data from SQL Server (2005) to Oracle (Version 9.2.0.7.0), but having some issues with setting up the connection objects to Oracle.
I have attempted the connection with both the OLE DB Destination connection in SSIS and also with an ODBC connection, but both come up with the same error "ORA-12154: TNS could not resolve service name".
I am using a 32-bit version of SQL Server 2005 and the Oracle DB is 64-bit. Any ideas?

I have a production server log shipping to a secondary server every 30 minutes (both SQL 2000), which the second server is used for both a warm standby server and for reporting from users. Issue: the log shipping locks the DB so reporting can't be done until the load is finished, the load to the second set of databases has taken up to 15 minutes to finish allowing the users only 15 minutes to run reports, this is not acceptable. The server also needs to be used for DR.
I am looking for another solution, I can't use Transactional Log shipping as not all of the tables in the databases have a primary key identified. So, I am looking for a real-time or near real-time reporting server that is more available to running reports and a warm standby server for Disaster recovery. I am trying to figure out what SQL Server 2000 has to provide (or even 2005 or 2008?) or I am also looking at some third party software, but not sure what is the best for a reasonable price.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks....JB

Hi All,
I have a dilemn:
On one side, I have a column C1 which could be a primary key because it is never null, the value is unique and identify the record. The problem is its a char type and its lenght can be close to 30.
Then, I've planned to add another column C2 of int type as PK. But then I need to add a unique constraint index on C1. Does it improve performance anyway?
Thanks

(Hard to put a good subject on this one...)
I have a database containing a lot of users and these users can have four different kind of telephone numbers connected to them: "Direct phone", "Switchboard", "Cell phone", "Home phone". The phone numbers are stored in a separate table. Some users have 0 phone numbers, some have 1, some have 3 etc.
Now I have to transfer the data to another database with a strict table structure and here the table that contains the user also should contain the users phone number and an alternative phone number, if the user currently has more than one phone number connected.
This means that if for instance we have three or more phone numbers connected to one user, we can maximum transfer two of them. This is not a big issue though...
We have ranked the importance of the phone numbers in the order as I presented them above.
What I do in my T-SQL query is to do a ISNULL() and see if the user has "Direct phone" connected, if not I check for the next type and so on.
Now to my problem! Can anyone give me a suggestion of how to write the code for the extraction of the Alternative phone? What I need to do is to check if there is a "Direct phone" connected to the user, if so I should NOT chose that but the next phone number that I find.

I'm currently developing an ASP.NET website which is using SQL Server 2005 and I couldn't decide between two table designs and I hope you can give me your opinions
The website is for a school and it'll be used to create tests from questions. The teacher will:
1. Select grade (could be multiple selection)
2. Select class
3. Select subject
The thing is that same question could be used for multiple grades.
Example query: "Get me questions of trigonometry of math from grades 7,8,9"
(Names used instead of ID's to make it more clear)
The first design:
[BigRelationsTable]
ID - QuestionID - GradeID - ClassID - SubjectID
1 - Question123 - Grade7 - Math - Trig
2 - Question123 - Grade8 - Math - Trig
3 - Question123 - Grade9 - Math - Trig
This is a simple design but all of the columns will need indexes because all of them will be used for searching and that makes me think about table performance.
Second design:
[GradeClassRelations]
ID - Grade - Class
1 - 7 - Math
2 - 8 - Math
3 - 9 - Math
[ClassSubjectRelations]
ID - GradeClassRelationsID - SubjectID
1 - GradeClassRelations1 - Trig
2 - GradeClassRelations2 - Trig
3 - GradeClassRelations3 - Trig
[SubjectQuestionRelations]
ID - ClassSubjectRelationsID - QuestionID
1 - ClassSubjectRelations1 - 1
2 - ClassSubjectRelations2 - 1
3 - ClassSubjectRelations3 - 1
This one is more normalised but this time the need of doing multiple joins makes me wonder.
What do you think? Which one should I use? Or if you have any other suggestions I'm all ears

Greetings SSIS friends
I want to implement the following query using SSIS Data flow Source component :
SELECT * FROM someTable WHERE someColumn = 'H'
How do I restrict the data coming from my data source? By that I mean how do I apply the WHERE clause in SSIS?! Should I use a conditional Split component?! but that would mean retrieving all records first then adding the split component (not the most efficient method surely).
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi there,
There's a field with Varchar(5) type which contains both alpha and alpha-numeric data. When sorting based on this field 1001 comes before 101. Is there anyway I can sort it appropriately; is there any collation or something which could be used.
Result of the sort:
1001
101
102
1022
103
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm helping a small company built a new website and intranet in asp.net 2.0 and SQL.
I'm having trouble choosing among vs.net 2005, vwd express, SQL 2005
express or SQL 2005 Developers Edition for the prototype/testing phase.
Any advice? I want to build production-ready versions with easy
migrations to production, but I don't want them to have to spend too
much $$$ while it's just in alpha and being prototyped.
thanks,

Hi,
I have a table with its ID field set as an Identity column with "seed" and "increment" set to 1. Now, I have rows in there that I don't want to change. I'd like the next addtitions to the table to start at a specific value for their ID columns.
Basically, how can I specify a new starting value for an identity column?
Thanks,

Hi,
I need to be able to get the maximum value of different calculations.
Example :
i have 5 calculations like this :
(sum(Fields!CountTest1.Value)/sum(Fields!TestCount.Value))*100
(sum(Fields!CountTest2.Value)/sum(Fields!TestCount.Value))*100
(sum(Fields!CountTest3.Value)/sum(Fields!TestCount.Value))*100
(sum(Fields!CountTest4.Value)/sum(Fields!TestCount.Value))*100
(sum(Fields!CountTest5.Value)/sum(Fields!TestCount.Value))*100
these calculations give me a percentage from a test value against the total test values.
what function or expression can i use to get the max value of all the calculations ?
I was looking at the "choose" function but i'm not quite sure how...
anybody ? help ....

I have an ActiveX Script Task in SQL Server 2000. It chooses one of two
possible success-paths depending on if a file exist or not. (Part of the old ActiveX Script for choosing next step is below)
I need to rewrite this for a Script Task in SQL Server 2005 but it seems like it
doesn't have this functionality and objects.
Does anyone know how to write the code for choosing the next step in a
Script Task or knows another way to solve my problem?
The package is not suppose to fail if the file is missing, it's must succeed and that's why I need two success-paths.
Regards,
Sara

We have two tables (one has DTS import of external spreadsheet - the other is the online table)
The scenario is that I need to add items (from the first table) to the second table, when they don't exist. However, it's harder than that - the second table, in some fields has integers (ID field)), referring to another table (let's call it the 3rd table), but the first table has text (which is in the description, in the third table).
I have to run through the first table, row by row, checking the part number if it already exists in the second table - nothing happens, and it goes to the next line. In each line, if the part number does NOT exist, I need to insert the data in that row. BUT - remember that third table, for the item(s) in the first table with text, I need to dynamically query the third table, to get the ID, in order to complete the insert correctly (Select ID from Third Table where Description=@FirstTableFieldText)
I've never done anything like this, and I have no idea how to put this together - especially if it's all in one Stored Procedure. I need some help here on recommended ways to do it (and how)..... Even the base structure (pseudo code- whatever) would help

I've got a page with a SQLDataSource control successfully populating a Dropdownlist...
However, now I find I need extended functionality - so I've got another page with links to this page, using querystrings - I need to hit the page, check the querystring, and if it's blank, just continue, but if the querystring is populated, then choose that item. I've tried the page_load and the page_prerender, but so far, it's not working:CC = Request.QueryString("center")If CC <> "" Then' DropDownList1.Items.FindByText(CC).Selected = TrueDropDownList1.SelectedIndex = DropDownList1.Items.IndexOf(DropDownList1.Items.FindByText(CC))End if
I've double checked, and yes, every time CC is populated, that item is definitely in the dropdownlist - it just doesn't get changed to that item.
ideas?

Hello everyone
I'm really new to Data Presentation Controls and I already hate them couse I think they are way too complicated. Becouse of that i have already met wall many times. My last one sounds like this.
I'm triing to put a default value from, lets say SqlDataSource1 in a DropDownList that is created by SqlDataSource2. I know how to get value from SqlDataSource1 but I don't know how to use exactly that value as my default value in DropDownList.
Two more question.
1. Is it possible to have two different select statements in a SqlDataSource?
2. A SqlDataSource may contain an insert statement, select statement, update and delete. If I bind this SqlDataSource to a control how can I specify which of those statements will be used?
Thanks in advance

Hi there - I have a longish bit of MDX which enable some MTD reporting. I'd like to power up the report so that users can select to report by WTD, QTD, YTD by clicking hyperlinks / buttons / whatever [I'm quite new to reporting services - not quite sure what's possible.]
I could create 4 separate reports with 4 separate datasets, or one report with 4 datasets, or is there some reasonable way I can tweak the MDX for a dataset on the fly, e.g. "search and replace, find MTD replace with QTD" &c &c.
Cheers,

I have 100k + records in table usr_table and I want to select all of them that do not have the same ID as the ID's indicated in table Usr_Type_Data
Select * From usr_table As t1 Join Company_Sales.dbo.Usr_Type_Data As t2 ON t2.user_id = t1.user_id Where CustomerTypeId <> 7
I get 0 returned.
If I change it to:
Select * From usr_table As t1 Join Company_Sales.dbo.Usr_Type_Data As t2 ON t2.user_id = t1.user_id Where CustomerTypeId = 7
I get all records from table Usr_Data_Type returned.
Do I need to specify a special Join type?
Or perhaps change the T-SQL around?

Does anyone know how to get SQL Reporting Services, when it runs a report, to tell Adobe Acrobat to "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size", which is an option in the print dialog box?
When I, or a user, runs a report in Visual Studio or live:
The report is set to render on 8.5" x 14" paper (legal)
The report is exported to a PDF
The report opens in Adobe Acrobat
The report is formatted on the screen to fit 8.5" x 14" paper (legal)
When "Print" is selected, the Preview has it on 8.5" x 11" paper (letter)
If I select "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size", then it fits it to the 8.5" x 14" paper (legal)
How do I tell it to "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size"?
