Ole DB Destination (available Input Columns Blank)
Oct 17, 2007
Can anyone please help
I am trying to get a table from production to development created and populated with data in Prod. When I create a package to set the data flow on the available input columns in mappings I do not see any columns there. The source has been defined as the production table.
Thanks a bunch

Hello everybody
I have one question about deleting blank row on flat file destination from conditional split.
I create an SSIS package to filter data from Flat file source.
On flat file source, it is Ragged right format and header row delimeter in {CR}{LF}
the coulums are devided manulaay using markers.
I use only 2 columns divided and send the source into conditional split task and the conditions are given to filter data,
when the output from conditional split is placed on flat file destination, i notice blank rows on the output. I want to delete the blank rows so the result data can be displayed continuously in rows.
anybody has any idea for this? I know the script task will work but hope to avoid to use script task.
Thank you in advance for all the help.

Hi,
We are processing 60,00, 000 rows(2 GB file) available in a flat file and loading them in to a database tables using OLEDB Destination components. In the data pipeline of an SSIS package we have 1 flat file source reader, 7 look up components(full cache mode), 1 multicast component and 2 OLE DB destinations with fast load option.
We have observed that first 10,00, 000 rows are processed and loaded in to target tables in just 4 minutes time. The second set of 10,00, 000 rows are processed in 15 minutes time. After this for processing each 1,00,000 rows SSIS is taking approximately 8 - 10 minutes time. We are not able to identify the reasons for the unexpected behaviour of SSIS.
We thought that as the input file size is 2 GB SSIS is not able to manage and slowing down over time of execution. We did split the big input file in to 60 small 37 MB (approx) size files. Then we modified the package by adding For-Each loop task to process all the 60 small files and load them in to database server sequentially. Even in this approach also we have identified data loading has slowed down drastically after processing 13 files.
In order to verify is there any problem with reading source file or transformation, we have replaced OLEDB destinations component with Flat File destinations. With Flat file destination the time taken for processing rows is very constant. For every 8 minutes package is able to process 10,00,000 rows and write them in to the destination files. So, there is no problem with the with either Look up components or flat file source reader.
We are sure that target database server is in same state/condition from the starting to the end of package execution. The client box in which we are running the package is having 1 GB RAM. During package execution time the CPU usage is at 30 % and PF usage is 580 MB. SP1 is also installed on both Client and Server.
Does any one have clue what is causing slow down of data load over the time of package execution?

Hi ,
If asked to find all the columns across tables which contains any NULL or blank value then what could be the best approach ?
I am sure there must be a way other than checking each column of each table .
Can anyone help me out in this .

I have been trying for some time to create a columnar report where certain columns can be hidden as requested by the user. I have tried placing the complete column set in the report, and then hiding a subset of columns, but blank pages are produced when rendered to PDF since the report body does not appear to shrink as columns are hidden and justify themselves to the left. I have tried a table, list, and matrix to no avail...
Does anyone know of a workaround, a trick, or even a hack that may accomplish what I am after?
Thanks.

Is there a way to preselect the input columns a custom component wanna use. Lets say by DataType (select all of DT_CY for example).
I tried to use the

I have three input columns from my flat file, defined as follows:
Col_A
Col_B
Col_C
Now, what I want to do is pick the one that is populated, and put it into my table, in the column called
ABC_INPUT
I assume that I want to use a derived column, but how do I filter out columns that contain only NULL values?
Thanks!!

We are trying to use the Import/export wizard to load a text file to a SQL Server 2005 database. The input file has a variable number of columns per row. For example, the first row has 3 columns, the second has 7, the third has 3, etc. The number of columns varies from 2 to 9 in the input file. The columns are separated by an uptick (`) and the rows are terminated by {CR}{LF}. We are using code page 1252. On processing, the wizard reads the first row (with 3 columns) ok, but then assumes all the other rows have 3 columns and parses the rows accordingly, ignoring the field and row terminators.
The process worked fine with SQL Server 2000. Is there some setting that we are missing, or some configuration on the database that we should be checking?
Thank You

I'm using a Row Count Task to count the number of records passing thru a particular path in my data flow. I created a package variable and referenced this variable in the Components Properties tab in the Row Count Task. I believe this is the minimum I need to do to get the row count.
However, as I explore the other tabs in the editor, I see there is something called Input Columns tab. What is this for? I didn't select anything in there and things are working fine. At first I thought that I had to choose the columns that I want to have available to me for further processing after the Row Count Task, but this isn't the case. I am able to see all my columns coming out of the Row Count Task even tho I didn't do anything in the Input Columns tab.
So, what is this setting for?

Hi, I was wondering how I can complete a column (which doesnt have an input one) with data.
For example:
I have a sql query which bring data of 3 columns
ID | FISRT NAME | LAST NAME
1 MIKE MORGAN
2 SARA JOHANES
So, I will insert that data in a FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, which I configured with 3 columns and I did the corresponding mapping in the FLAT FILE DESTINTATION.
Now, If I add one more column in the FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, I will not have it mapped to a input one, obviously. So, what I need is to add one more column to the flat file destination and complete it with zeros values in it.
Probably I can solve this part by introducing a DERIVED COLUMN and there I can configure the zeros that I want to add to the column. But I'm not sure if I can do that without having a input column.
So, the question will be, how can I add one column to a flat file which doesnt have a input and introduce any value that I want to it?
Hope I was clear
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I have an SSIS Package. I am using script component to loop through input columns and their values. I am not able to do Null checking. The code is as below. In place of dashes , I want to do null checking but am not able to do. I tried vbNull, IsNull, TypeOf, System.dbNull but nothing is working. I guess am missing something here. Can anyone help me with this.
For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection
columnValue = rowType.GetProperty(column.Name)
If Not --------------- Then
RowData += ((FormatElement(column.Name) + ReplaceSpecialChars(columnValue.GetValue(Row, Nothing).ToString()) + FormatElement(column.Name, True)))
End If
Next
Thanks in Advance.

Is there by chance a cunning way to make the input columns automatically populate the output of an asynchronous script transformation?
My transformation writes several rows for each input row read. I'm creating some new columns along the way but I'd like all of the input columns to get output each time also. However I can't see any obvious way to achieve this, short of manually defining each column to the output and populating it in the script.

I have set up a script task in one of my packages that I have set up to modify another package right before running it. This package is nothing more than a data flow task that transfers rows via an sql command from one table into another. The strange thing is I have gotten it to work with some tables but not with others. T
he script bombs out in the loop where i map all of the columns found below, where i use MapInputColumn with the error HRESULT: 0xC0010009 On Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper.IDTSExternalMetadataColumnCollection90.get_Item(Object Index)
The thing is this happens after looping roughly 55 times but there are still about 100 columns that it needs to loop through still.
Code Block
Dim input As IDTSInput90 = data_destination.InputCollection(0)
Dim virtual_input As IDTSVirtualInput90 = input.GetVirtualInput
Dim input_column As IDTSInputColumn90
Dim virtual_column As IDTSVirtualInputColumn90
' Iterate through the virtual input column collection and map field names
For Each virtual_column In virtual_input.VirtualInputColumnCollection
input_column = inst_data_destination.SetUsageType(input.ID, virtual_input, virtual_column.LineageID, DTSUsageType.UT_READONLY)
inst_data_destination.MapInputColumn(input.ID, input_column.ID, input.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.FindObjectByID(virtual_column.Name).ID)
Next
Just for kicks i removed the mapping portion of the code and left in the SetUsageType to see if it would update the available input columns in the destination. The script will then finish successfully but still only the 55 or so fields out of 155 are available in the input. So i then stepped through the script with the mapping portion still disabled and after it loops successfully, i call reinitialize meta data and it produces an error in the input_column variable: HRESULT: 0xC0047041.
I find it odd that this still reports to me that the script finished successfully and I also find it odd that this works fine on two other tables I've tested but not this one. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I got a strange problem with SQL Server 2005 data mining models though. I have selected the input columns for my mining model (which are different from the input columns for its mining structure, since I ignored some of the columns for the selected model). But the mining model still used all input columns from the mining structure rather than those I chose for the mining model.
Would please any one here give me any guidance and advices for that. Really need help for that.
Thanks a lot in advance for any help.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,

I have a stored proc I am updating in an OLEDB Command from the results of a Transform Script Component. The Stored Proc has over 65 input parameters, most of them have a NULL passed in. I dont want to create output columns in the Transform Script Component for all of them to map them from the "Available Input Columns" to "Available Destination Columns".
I want to create 3 or 4 generic Output columns for their data type - say IntegerOutput (datatype Int), DateTimeOut (datatype datetime) and so on. The I want to map these generic columns in the OLEDB Command as Available Input Columns" to multiple "Available Destination Columns" - wherever the datatype matches the input column.
But the OLEDB Command Column Mappings let me map One to One only. This will create a huge and unnecessary workload for me to develop and maintain - when I tell you I have 3 such stored procedures, all of whose interfaces are exactly same and for which I can create similar Output columns in the Transform Script Component.
So how do I go about doing this the smart way?
thanks in advance!

When I create a DTS to export a text file from a table, if I click onthe Define Columns button and then Populate from source, then execute,it changes one of the types to not quotable and the size to 19, whichin turn is changing the file width. The field that it is changing hasa numeric data type and the remainder of the fields are text (allvarying sizes). Is it doing this because it is numeric or is theresome other explaination? And is there anyway to stop it fromhappening?

Hi,
In a SSIS Data flow task, whatever you are doing with the input columns that come from a Data source like a Flat File Source, these columns are always visible and available as input columns for all Transformation and Destination components in the Data flow.
Our Custom Component is a column mapping component that transforms many input columns into many oputput columns and we would like that the used input columns are not available anymore to the downstream components...
Is that possible?
I saw that with the Unpivot component it is possible to make some input columns unavailable to downstream components...So I think there is a way to do the same in a custom component...
Thanks for any help,
David

I am building an SSIS package that loops through a table in SQL Server and dynamically builds a select statement that i would like to use as an ole db source. I have been having a difficult time with this as the select statement that i am generating is over 200,000 characters long so using an sql variable is out of the question.
I ended up placing the select statement into a table where each row of the table represents a piece of the select. I then use an execute_sql task that selects the entire rowset from this table into a variable object. I then use a for each loop to shred the variable and concatenate it into on big string variable called user:: sql_statement that is my select.
After setting up the loop and testing to see if the user:: sql_statement variable populates correctly i then added a data flow transfer with an ole db source and destination. I then go into the advanced editor for the source and set it to accept an sql statement from a variable and use my user:: sql_statement variable. I was forced to set validate external metadata option to false to avoid an error since there is no way to validate the columns until the for each loop runs during run time.
Now thats all fine and good but what is causing my problem is that during run time, when the package gets to the data flow task, the select statement doesn't seem to be populating the input columns of the data source. I have been searching to no avail on a way to tell the data source to update the input columns but every time it gets there, the package bombs out telling me the ole db source has no available output columns.
Specifically the error i get is :
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: "output "OLE DB Source Output" (6616)" contains no output columns. An asynchronous output must contain output columns.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.

I'm trying write a reusable script component that takes data from rows that were rejected from a SQL Destination operation and put them into a common SQL error table.
This script would basically function to take the input columns selected in the script, and build a delimited string, (similar to the 'Flat File Source Error Output' that is contains redirected rows from reading a flat file) and insert this string into a SQL table called 'SourceData' to store errors.
I'm trying to script the component to iterate through all input columns (as selected in the input columns screen) and build a simple string.
Code Block
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
'Use the incoming error number as a parameter to GetErrorDescription
Row.ErrorDescription = ComponentMetaData.GetErrorDescription(Row.ErrorCode)
Try
Row.ErrorColumnName = ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection(Row.ErrorColumn).Name
Catch ex As Exception
Row.ErrorColumnName = String.Concat("Column Name retrieval failure. Details", ex.Message)
End Try
'
'Build input data
'
Dim inData As String
For Each inputCol As IDTSInputColumn90 In ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection
inData = String.Concat(inData, "~", inputCol.Name) 'I don't want the name, but the value.
Next
Row.SourceData = inData
'
End Sub
I've only got as far as iterating the names of columns in the input buffer, but how do i get the values?
The result i'm trying to achieve is :
Selected columns in 'Input Column' screen : Name, Address, Phone
OutPut column 'SourceData' value : Harry~Melbourne~None
I don't want to write the code as:
Code Block
inData = Row.Name
indata = String.Concat(inData,"~",Row.Address)
indata = string.concat(inData,"~",Row.Phone)
as this make my code not very reusable. I've got some tables which are 100+ columns long and I don't wish modify the code too much
I have also tried overriding the ProcessInput() function of the script component to iterate through the buffer columns :
Code Block
Public Overrides Sub ProcessInput(ByVal InputID As Integer, ByVal Buffer As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.PipelineBuffer)
MyBase.ProcessInput(InputID, Buffer)
Dim iCnt As Integer = 0
Dim inData As String
If Buffer.ColumnCount > 0 Then
For iCnt = 0 To Buffer.ColumnCount - 1
inData = String.Concat(Buffer.Item(iCnt)) 'Error thrown here: PipelineBuffer has encountered an invalid row index value.
Next
End If
End Sub
but i get an error when i run it.
Please help.

Overview of my scenario: i have an SQL table with 10 columns. I read data off a csv flat file source and insert / update them into the sql. No problems there.
Now, after the 10th column, the columns are variable from site to site. Ie, for any customer, the first 10 columns are the same but the following 'n' number of columns can be different.
I'm already able to detect what are the 'custom' columns from the source db and can programmatically add / modify the columns to the destination sql tables when SSIS runs.
My problem now is, i have the flat file source with 'fixed' and 'custom' columns together, and my sql table is ready to receive them, but i don't have the proper column mappings in my SSIS package. I only have mappings for the 'fixed' columns.
How can i programmatically 'add' these mappings to my data source and subsequently my oledb destination?
What strategy should i use? Open for anyone's suggestions or ideas.
Thanks.

Hi All,
I want to run a loop for all the input columns in the script component. My requirement is, I have nearly 50 columns in the input columns list. For each row and for each column I need to do some operation. How Can I run a loop for each column. Please note in the script component I need to get the column names in the middle for some operations. Please see below.
Process Each Input Row
For each column in Input column list
....
....
If column.Name Starts with "Test" then set NULL to the column value
....
....
End Loop
End Loop for each input row
Can anybody tell me how can I do that.

In SSIS I use the DQS Cleansing transformation component. I've got a knowledge base (KB) in place and this KB holds various domains and my data source has more input columns than would like to use for a particular clean up operation. I want to use some of the input columns to map against some domains in the KB. It is my understanding that it should be possible to select only the required input columns, but all i can do is select all input columns.
