OLE DB Source To Flat File Destintation Using Fixed Width Columns - Determining Source Column Width

Feb 13, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to create a program that transfers tables to flat files.
At this point in time, I have suceeded in created one that creates delimited files.

However, I am now trying to create fixed-width files as you can do with the SSIS designer, but programatically.

Is there a way to programatically determine the width of a column from the source table? I can not seem to find any kind of function or member that stores this information or allows me to retrieve it.

I know what I need to change in order to set a width for a column, but I just don't know how to find the width without just asking the user to provide one.

Derived Column Usage When Column Does Not Exist In Source (but Exists In Destination)

Sep 11, 2007





Posted - 09/10/2007 : 15:53:26



Hey all - got a problem that seems like it would be simple (and probably is : )

I'm importing a csv file into a SQL 2005 table and would like to add 2 columns that exist in the table but not in the csv file. I need these 2 columns to contain the current month and year (columns are named CM and CY respectively). How do I go about adding this data to each row during the transformation? A derived column task? Script task? None of these seem to be able to do this for me.

Here's a portion of the transformation script I was using to accomplish this when we were using SQL 2000 DTS jobs:


'**********************************************************************
' Visual Basic Transformation Script
'************************************************************************

' Copy each source column to the destination column
Function Main()
DTSDestination("CM") = Month(Now)
DTSDestination("CY") = Year(Now)
DTSDestination("Comments") = DTSSource("Col031")
DTSDestination("Manufacturer") = DTSSource("Col030")
DTSDestination("Model") = DTSSource("Col029")
DTSDestination("Last Check-in Date") = DTSSource("Col028")
Main = DTSTransformStat_OK
End Function
***********************************************************
Hopefully this question isnt answered somewhere else, but I did a quick search and came up with nothing. I've actually tried to utilize the script component and the "Row" object, but the only properties I'm given with that are the ones from the source data.

thanks in advance!

Preappending Zeroes

Apr 13, 2006

Hi ,

Sorry for those that think this is obvious but I have tried for good time and cannot solve this problem in a simple way.

How can I append a 0 in the form of varchar to a 1 with datatype integer

What Im trying to do is add an alternate column to the identity column in my table.

The identityt collumn seeds in 0 all the way up with increments of 1.
ie 0,1,2,...,n
howver, I need that for the values below 10 a zero is preapended
ie
01,02,03,...,09, and then the sequence continues normally, ie 10,11,...,n. I am trying to preapend the zeroes to the mentioned dinumbers in the new calculated column I created without success.
this is what I would like tot do
select IdentityCoulmn,('0'+ IdentityCoulmn) as CalculatedCoulumn
from MyTable

but its not working the result comes out the same ie 1,2..n

thank you

Padding Zeroes To An Int

Jan 18, 2008

Hi,

I need a simpler way of doing this:

I've a number column which I need to show as a 3 digit field in a string:
Example:
number =1; string = 010
number =10; string =100

is there any function that can do this string manipulation?


Currently I'm using a CASE statement to check the length of this number column,
if its single digit I use:
SUBSTRING(('0' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0'),1,3)

else I use
CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0')

Is there a better way of doing this?

Thanks,
Subha

Remove Trailing Zeroes From Result Set

Jan 31, 2008



I have a column of type Decimal(14, 4) in my SQL server 2005 database.
When producing the result set on this column, i need to convert the values to varchar datatype and also i do not want the trailing zeroes to be displayed.
For eg:
If the value stored is 98.7500, my select query should provide an output of 98.75.
Similarly if the value stored is 98.0000, my select query should output 98.

I tried converting the value to "float" and then assigning to varchar data, however doing so i am incurring precision loss in some scenarios
See below:


Declare @ele as varchar(25)

Select @ele = Convert(float, 99999.9990)

select @ele


Output I received: 100000
Output I wanted: 99999.999
Are there any in-built functions in SQL to achieve what I need?

Transact SQL :: Return Number With 2 Leading Zeroes

May 5, 2015

In a t-sql 2012 select statement, I have a query that looks like the following:

SELECT  CAST(ROUND(SUM([ABSCNT]), 1) AS NUMERIC(24,1)) from table1.

The field called [ABSCNT] is declared as a double. I would like to know how to return a number like 009.99 from the query. I would basically like to have the following:

1. 2 leading zeroes (basically I want 3 numbers displayed before the decimal point)
2. the number before the decimal point to always display even if the value is 0, and
3. 2 digits after the decimal point.

Thus can you show me the sql that I can use to meet my goal?

Converting Int To Fixed Length Char With Leading Zeroes

May 25, 1999

Hello All,
Can someone tell me how (in SQL) to convert an integer to a fixed length character filled with leading zeros. For example, I have an integer value of '125'. My user wants to see it displayed as '00000125'. How do I get the zeroes to fill in to a char(8) field when the length of the value differs, ie. '1', '125', '3452', etc.

Thanks in advance,

SQL 2012 :: Leading Zeroes Substring Query In Server

Mar 16, 2015

Padding leading zeroes for the months in End date

Example: actual data is like

6222007
,11301998
in end date column the following query works fine for 11301998 and converts it as 19981130 which was correct.

But 6222007
fails because month has no leading zero and it converts it as 0076222 which is wrong.

How can i make it as 20070622 with the following code

select (case when replace (ltrim(rtrim(ltrim([end date]))), '|', '') in ('99999999','00000000') then NULL
else substring ([END DATE],5,4)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],1,2)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],3,2) end) as ConvEnd_date

Integration Services :: SSIS Is Removing Leading Zeroes From 6 Character Time String?

May 29, 2015

I am using SSIS 2012 SP1 to import a comma delimited csv file into a SQL table.

One of the fields carries a time value:

Source = textfile, column=DT_STR(8), value format = "hhmmss", e.g. "011525"
Destination = field in SQL table, data type = time(0)

To get it from the textfile to the SQL table I am:

1.) Creating a derived column called [d_Time of Entry]with the following formula -

SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],1,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],3,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],5,2)

2.) Performing a data conversion task to convert [d_Time of Entry] from DT_STR(8) to time(0) The upload fails because values that start with a zero, i.e. times before 10am, have their leading 0's stripped before being derived.  You can see this because "011525" is derived as "11:52:5" when it should be "01:15:25".

Transact SQL :: Use Print Function To Output Numeric Variable With Fixed Amount Of Leading Zeroes

Apr 23, 2015

I need to create an output from a T-SQL query that picks a numeric variable and uses the print function to output with leading zeroes if it is less than three characters long when converted to string.  For example if the variable is 12 the output should be 012 and if the variable is 3 the output should be 003.

Presently the syntax I am using is PRINT STR(@CLUSTER,3) .  But if @CLUSTER which is numeric is less than three characters I get spaces in front.

Error When Using IIF On Source Column

Sep 23, 2005

Cannot add functions like:

iif("dbo"."FACT_Sales_order_transaction"."DeliveredQty" > 0,1,0)

on the Source Column property on a measure in my cube.

Get error "the column is not valid"

I'm sure it's a valid name !
I have a measure called so and
commands like "dbo"."FACT_Sales_order_transaction"."DeliveredQty"- "some other measure" works fine.

It works fine if I try the same on the Tutorial Sales cube:
iif("sales_fact_1998"."store_sales" > 0,1,0)

Only difference is "dbo"... Should work on SQL-server also ???

DataReader Source And Column Types

Mar 2, 2006

Is there a way to control the types for output columns of a DataReader Source? It appears that any System.String will always come out as DT_WSTR. As I have my own managed provider, and I know what went in, I can say that really it should be DT_STR. The GetSchemaTable call from my provider will always say System.String as it does not have much choice, but GetSchemaTable does contain a ProviderType which is different for my DT_STR vs DT_WSTR, or rather when I want each. I think something like MappingFiles as used by the Wizard would work, but can I do anything today?

Using OLE DB Source Properties In Derived Column

May 18, 2006

I am converting the contents of 64 lookup tables from individual tables (each called lookup_xxxxx) into a single LookupReference table. The individual lookup tables are my OLE DB Source objects. I want to derive the variable part of the lookup_xxxxx table name from the OLE DB Source 'OpenRowset' property as a variable and make it into a derived column (which will be the lookup Type column in the output table). For example, extract "SpeciesType" from the input source called 'lookup_SpeciesType' and put it into the derived column.

I cannot find a System variable that refers to the input data source. Does anyone know how I can do this?

Any help much appreciated. Thanks

XML Source And Remove Column Warnings

Dec 19, 2007



Hello,

I am creating a 2005 SSIS Package with multiple data flows with source data based on the XML Source and a XSD Schema that we have created. These data flows load data from XML into different tables in our data warehouse for order data so the XSD Schema has several hierarchies. Because each data flow loads data into one table (I broke it out this way to make the package easier for readability and maintance) and the source for each is based on the XSD hierarchies I receive numerous warnings similar to the following; "Warning: 0x80047076....Removing this unused output column can increase Data Flow task performance." that I would like to remove. However, when I un-check the box to remove those output columns (which leaves several hierarchies without output columns) I then receive a error similar to the following; "Error: 0xC00470B9 at ....contains no output columns. An asynchronous output must contain output columns."

So the question is how to remove the numerous remove column warnings? I have thought about creating one XML schema for each dataflow, breaking the data flows into different packages, etc. but I am still not exaclty sure how to remove the warnings which should increase the speed of the package overall. Thank you!

Cannot Import Excel Source File With Empty Last Column

Oct 23, 2007

Hi All,

I have a particular issue that has been causing me some problems for a while. I have an SSIS package that imports an excel file into my database, and then performs various data manipulation that I won't go into. The problem I am having is at the import end. The excel source file I am working on is provided to me by my client. It is a fixed format and doesn't change, it contains a header row and there are 32 headings. The trouble I am having is that quite often, the last column is empty, i.e. it contains no data. The header is still there, but theres no data underneath. When I try to import this file using my SSIS package it fails, and complains about needing to remove the metadata for this final column from the External Columns list (VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA). When I try to preview this file in the properties of the Excel Data Source, the last column does not exist. It's as if it's determining that as there is no data in that final column, that it's unnecessary and not part of the data set, even though it has a header.

Now I've done a bit of research, and found cases that a sort of like mine, I know that the excel file has the first 8 records sampled to determine the data format. This problem suggested to use the IMEX=1 extension in the connection string, which didn't help. I also discovered that when using flat files, if you have odd numbers of columns in your comma seperated list there can be problems. But neither of these issues seem to match the issue I'm facing.

Has ANYONE had a similar problem to me, and can anyone offer any kind of assistance regarding what I need to do to import an excel file that may or may not have data in the final column?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Adding New Column To Flat File Source Connection

Feb 1, 2007

What is the best way to deal with a flat file source when you need to add a new column? This happens constantly in our Data Warehouse, another field gets added to one of the files to be imported, as users want more data items. When I originally set the file up in Connection Managers, I used Suggest File Types, and then many adjustments made to data types and lengths on the Advanced Tab because Suggest File Types goofs a lot even if you say to use 1000 rows. I have been using the Advanced Tab revisions to minimize the Derived Column entries. The file is importing nightly. Now I have new fields added to this file, and when I open the Connection Manager for the file, it does not recognize the new columns in the file unless I click Reset Fields. If I click Reset Fields, it wipes out all the Advanced Tab revisions! If I don't click Reset Fields, it doesn't seem to recognize that the new fields are in the file?

Is it a waste of time to make Advanced Tab type and length changes? Is it a better strategy to just use Suggest Types, and not change anything, and take whatever you get and set up more Derived Column entries? How did the designers intend for file changes to be handled?

Or is there an easy way to add new fields to this import that I am overlooking? I am finding it MUCH more laborious to set up or to modify a file load in SSIS than in DTS. In DTS, I just Edit the transformation, and add the field to the Source and Destination lists, and I'm good to go. My boss isn't understanding why a "better" version is taking so much more work!

thanks,

Holly

Flat File Source - How To Configure An Appropriate Column Delimiter?

Feb 19, 2008

Good day everyone,


I have a package that reads data from a CSV file, transforms it and finally loads it in a destination DB table.

My current problem lies in the parsing of the input flat file. I shall illustrate it using a small example.


Source File:
P;Product-1;Short Description for product 1
P;Product-2;Short Description for product 2


Problem:
I configured the flat file connection manager to use semicolon as the column separator. But then I have received some sample flat files where I found that the semicolon might be sometimes used as content of a column data.


Possible Solutions:
I have thought about 3 different solution and I would like to get your feedback and recommendations about them.


Alternative 1:
Use a complex column delimiter, which wouldn't be used in the data.

Example:
P#~#Product-1#~#Short Description for product 1
P#~#Product-2#~#Short Description for product 2


Question 1:
- Is it possible to define such a customized column delimiter for the Flat File Connection Manager?
- If yes, how can I do this?


Alternative 2:
Use double quotes around the data, which the Flat File Source Adapter must somehow recognize and trim before pushing the data down the Data Flow.

Example:
"P";"Product-1";"Short Description for product 1"
"P";"Product-2";"Short Description for product 2"


Question 2:
- Is it possible to configure the Flat File Source Adapter to work as described?
- If yes, how can I do this?


Alternative 3:
Use a Script Component and write the needed code for parsing the Flat File.


Question 3:
- Do you have further suggestions/ideas for solving this parsing problem?



Thanks in advance and my regards,
Samar

Data Source Column Discovery At Runtime? Help Much Appreciated

May 10, 2006

Hi -- I am fairly new to SSIS development, although I am starting to appreciate it more an more, especially since I have started getting into extending the object model. Here's my question:

I have a data flow that pulls data from any number of different delimited files with different numbers of columns. I have had no problem dealing with setting up run-time file locations and file names by using the expressions of a flat file data source, and i have been able to pretty easily deal with varying file delimiters by standardizing the files before they get into the data flow. however, I have not been able to come up with a solution that will allow my data source to discover its column info at run time, and then pass that information on to the data flow task. all i really care about is being able to properly parse the individual rows into individual column data by the flat file data source because the data flow itself is able to discover the actual data that the columns hold at run-time.

i would very much appreciate any feedback from anyone on possible solutions for this.

thanks!
