Using sql server
I want to create a txt file from a table i have. I have the data in the correct formats but i want to include some padding around my selected four columns.
Im not sure about the best way to go about this?
Has anyone had experience formatting an excel file (i.e. run a macro) after it is (created &) outputted from a DTS package?
Also an easier question:
What is the best (easiest) way to create a unique filename in Excel with a datetimestamp in the file name (i.e. MyFile-20040608.xls)
Thanks!
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 SSRS report which has many overlapping objects, the output in PDF format seems to good but in word format it is not giving the required output.

Hi All,
I am stuck at one place, where I have to convert CSV format file data into SAP IDOC format file. In SSIS we don't have any such SAP adapter (though we have .NET Data Provider for mySAP suite [SSIS SAP Adapter] but this is still not fully supported by Microsoft, plus it doesn't have feature to convert data into IDOC format) that can do this. Can someone here please provide me some pointers on any third party adapters available in market to do this job or if anyone has already developed some custom approach to achieve this task?
Your quick response on this is highly appreciated.

I am trying to format the result output from my query so that it looks like currency. Does anyone know how to do this?
Here is my very simple select statement:
SELECT Field_Value
FROM tbl_all_results
I was thinking some kind of cast/convert would do the trick but I can't seem to get anything to work.
Thanks for your help!
In my report I have used the "jump to url" for the report output but when I export this to excel I get a column with the correct data and also the url.
Is there anyway of exporting the data without the url?
I want my users to be able to view the report and click on the column the want to URL jump to but also be able to export just the raw data without the URL?

I have the following Query which gives the output in XML format.
select * from <Table_Name> For XML auto
I wanted to store this output in a .Xml file at my local machine.
I would prefer to have a proc when called generates the xml and stores it on the local m/c. Any ideas ?
Thanks,
I manually build my url for my reports. In the url I build, I can specify the output format I would like it to automatically use when the report opens. However, it always first opens the dialog box to either Save, Open, or Cancel. Is there anyway to bypass this and just open it in the format I have coded in the url? Thanks.

I've just upgraded a 6.5 database to version 7.0 and I'm having a problem with default date output formats.
Under 6.5 the output format was: Sep 2 2001 12:00PM
Under 7.0 the same field is output as: 2001-09-02 12:00:00.000
Is there a way to permanently set the default output format for dates on a database or server wide?
Thanks

View 6 Replies View RelatedA few details first:
The report server is remote to the development server (VS 2003).
The web application that will be calling it is ASP.NET 2.0 and developed in VS 2005.
I have a couple of questions:
a: Can I link to the report from the web application using a basic Hyperlink control rather than using a ReportViewer control?
b: How can I force which format it opens in? Say I want it to be rendered as a PDF in one instance but at an XSL document in another.
Many thanks and kindest regards,

Hi all,
I'm Trying to replicate the creation of an "xml" file that is currently created using a C++ application. I want to take that application out of the picture, but need to create the same format XML file because a step later in the production process uses this file, and I cannot change it.
The output format I am looking for is:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FUNDS>
<AMRGX>
<NAME>AMERICAN GROWTH D</NAME>
</AMRGX>
<AHERX>
<NAME>AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND</NAME>
</AHERX>
<AMRVX>
<NAME>AMERICAN INVESTORS GROWTH FUND</NAME>
</AMRVX>
.
.
.
</FUNDS>The problem I am having is that I cannot seem to get the level/node of the fund symbol (AMRGX, AHERX, and AMRVX in the example above) as it needs to be. I think this must be some non-standard use of XML, since the tag is really the data itself (?)
The closest I have been able to get so far is:
<FUNDS>
<SYMBOL>AMRGX</SYMBOL>
<NAME>AMERICAN GROWTH D</NAME>
</FUNDS>
<FUNDS>
<SYMBOL>AHERX</SYMBOL>
<NAME>AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND</NAME>
</FUNDS>
.
.
.As you can see (hopefully) I am able to get the data I need but cannot get:
(1) the FUNDS tag(s) to be the very highest level/root.
nor (2) the SYMBOL part (tag label?) to be the actual variable stock fund.
Am I 'splaining this well enough? I don't necessarily need all the code, since I know I haven't given enough info to help with that, but my basic question is - - Is it possible to get a variable TAG based on the table DATA?
I want my SYMBOL tag to be the actual SYMBOL for the stock fund.
Confused? Not as much as I am *LOL* I am new to the use of all but XML EXPLICIT use, so any help would be appreciated - at least regarding my two formatting questions.
Yes, I have (and am still) searching around BOL for my answers, but so I have found nothing that helps me out. Meanwhile, suggestions are welcome!
Thanks!
I have the following code and the result set is coming out as nvarchar. So, when I create a report in SSRS, it is not formatting as a date.
, CASE
WHEN isnull(cv2.Accepted,0)='True' AND cv2.Visit ='V2' AND cv2.StepNo='3' THEN 'Y'
ELSE CONVERT(varchar,[dbo].[fn_Get_WorkingDays] (co.PlannedGoLiveDt, -10))
END AS 'System Verified'
Hello folks,
A while back I wrote a .NET assembly with a COM wrapper to provide an interface between Report Services and legacy MS Access applications. Basically, it returns the byte arrays from the .render method (output format emf) to be written into an Access image control.
This worked flawlessly on any 8.5"x11" RS report we threw at it on the first two Report Services I tried it against. When we set up a third Report Service at another facility, the same reports were coming out with the physical dimension metrics on the emf as10"x13", so the Access version of the report is clipped significantly on the edges.
I trapped the output into a System.Drawing.Image object in the .NET assembly and put a watch on it. The two servers that work as I expected show HorizontalResolution and VerticalResolution as 96.0946, while the one that doesn't has these values as 81.2799. The PhysicalDimension property shows 21542.3672 x 27939.4316 on the working servers and 25531.25 x 33031.25 Otherwise, the properties of the images seem to be identical. The PhysicalDimension values I see are completely consistent with the size units of 0.01 mm, as the the emf documentation indicates. The resolution of 96 is consistent with the "Windows default" values of 96 dpi. The ratio of the resolutions is correct for an 85% scaling factor for the "misbehaving" Report Service.
I have not been able to find any reason for the differences between the Report Services, and I have not been able to figure out how to control it. I tried setting DpiX and DpiY as 96 in the DeviceInfo for the render call with no change in the behavior of either server.
Can anybody enlighten me on what is happening and what I need to do to get consistent behavior between the servers? Or why the DpiX and DpiY settings for the emf rendering extension don't seem to work?

I need to display the output of a table in a specific format, I have attached the sample screenshot and code for reference.
I tried with pivot but does not seems to be working.
I am working on a code that will convert the query output into a html query output. That is the output of the query will be along with html tags so that we can save it as a html file.
The stored procedure that i have used is downloaded from symantec website and is working fine. Below is the code of that stored procedure.
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] Script Date: 12/21/2011 09:04:30 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] (
@TABLENAME NVARCHAR(500),
@OUTPUT NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT,
[Code] ....
The code works fine and i am able to get the output with html tags. The problem occurs when i insert stylesheet in the code. I tried to enforce styles using a stylesheet for the table returned in my sql code, so that it will look good. below is the stylesheet code that i inserted between <head> and </head> tags.
<style type="text/css">table.gridtable { font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size:10px; color:#333333;border-width:1px; border-color: #666666; border-collapse: collapse; } table.gridtable td {border-width: 1px; padding: 8px; border-style: solid; border-color: #666666; background-color: #ffffff;}</style>
If I run the procedure without the style sheet code, it works fine. but when i run the procedure with style sheet code i am getting the below errors.
Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 98
Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '</table></body><'.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 98
Incorrect syntax near '</table></body><'.
[Code] .....
I checked the code and i am not able to find what is the mistake. I tried changing the quotation mark but it didn't worked.

Hey All,
Similar to a previous post (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=244646&SiteID=1), I am trying to import data into a SQL Table.
I am trying to program a small application that will import product data obtained through suppliers via CD-ROM. One supplier in particular uses Fixed width colums, and data looks like this:
Example of Data
0124015Apple Crate 32.12
0124016Bananna Box 12.56
0124017Mango Carton 15.98
0124018Seedless Watermelon 42.98
My Table would then have:
ProductID as int
Name as text
Cost as money
How would I go about extracting the data with an XML Format file? I am stumbling over how to tell it where to start picking up data for a specific column.
Is there any way that I could trim the Name column (i.e.: "Mango Carton " --> "Mango Carton")?
I don't know if it makes any difference, but I've been calling SQL from my code by doing this:
Code in C# Form
SqlConnection SqlConnection = new SqlConnection(global::SQLClients.Properties.Settings.Default.ClientPhonebookConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO PhonebookTable(Name, PhoneNumber) VALUES('" + txtName.Text.ToString() + "', '" + txtPhoneNumber.Text.ToString() + "')";
cmd.Connection = SqlConnection;
SqlConnection.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlConnection.Close();
RefreshData();
I am running Visual Studio C# Express 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005.
Thanks for your time,
Hayden.

In my SSIS Package, I have to write my [FileHeaderRecord] row, then my [BatchHeaderRecord] row, then my details. How can I do this in a SQL Server Query? When I try my SSIS, my file looks like so..
FHTEST 00000208262015 BH000208262015
I want my BH, Batch Header data, to appear on a new row in the file.Do I have to build a dynamic query to do this?Is there any trick in SSIS to do something like this?I did try creating separate Data Flow Tasks to Query the [FileHeaderRecord] and then use a Flat File Destination and then another Data Flow Task to Query the [BatchHeaderRecord] and use a Flat File Destination again NOT overwriting the file.
I am transferring data from an OLEDB source to a Flat File Destination and I want the column width for all of the output columns to 30 (max width amongst the columns selected), but that is not refected in the Fixed Width Flat File that got created. The outputcolumnwidth seems to be the same as the inputcolumnwidth. Is there any other setting that I am possibly missing or is this a possible defect?
Any inputs will be appreciated.
