Referencing Variables By Name
Nov 8, 2007
Hi there everyone,
A quick question. How do I reference variables (system and user) in SSIS by name instead of by just using a "?". The reason why I'm asking is because I'm trying to log what happens in a package to SQL, and if I cannot reference a variable by name it tries to insert variable values into incorrect fields?
An example of the code I'm trying to use can be found below:
Code Block
UPDATE dbo.History_Control_Table
SET
End_Date = GetDate()
, Result = 'Success'
, Status = NULL
, No_Of_Records_Processed = ? --This is where I want to tell it which variable to use
, Package_Name = ?
, No_Of_Records_Rejected = ?
--etc etc etc
WHERE
Package_Name = ?
AND Task_Name = 'Deals_Fact_Stg'
AND Status = 'Running'
Thanks in advance.
Chow.

I am modifying a report that sets this variable at the beginning of every dataset:
declare @current_minute int
set @current_minute = DATEPART(N, GETDATE()) % 3
My idea is to set this variable in the Report Properties instead. When I do set this variable it in a Text Box or a Dataset, I get errors such as:
The expression used for the calculated field '=Variables!report_var.Value' includes a variable reference. Variable values cannot be used in calculated field expressions.
The Variable(report_var) expression for the report ‘body’ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'N' is not declared.
What other strategies can I use to set a variable globally, instead of at the beginning of each dataset?

For example, the table below, has a foreign key (ManagerId) that points to EmployeeId (primary key) of the same table.
-------Employees table--------
EmployeeID . . . . . . . . . . int
Name . . . . . . . . . . . nvarchar(50)
ManagerID . . . . . . . . . . . int
If someone gave you an ID of a manager, and asked you to get him all employee names who directly or indirectly report to this manager.
How can that be achieved?

Hi,
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .
I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).
It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.
are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW
/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"
'
thanks,

I have a SqlDataSource - The select statement
selects the DB row with an ID that equals a querystring value.... So I
know I am only selecting one row..Now I want to create a little
Sub that grabs any field(s) of my choice and then I can assign the
value of it to a textbox on my page or a variable if I need to... Any
idea how I actually reference the fields via the SQLDataSource in a
sub? I see you can reference parameters using..SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters()I was hoping I could use something similar to get the actual DB fields like the below...SqlDataSource1.Select("MyDataBaseField").Value = TextBox.TextCan anyone help please??Thanks

The Background:
From page 1 a search is created and this value is converted to a querystring and given the name "id=" and passed to page 2. Page 2 then does a lookup in the sql 2000 db useing this querystring.
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ListingDBConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [ID], [CompName], [Package] FROM [CDetails] WHERE ([ID] = @ID)">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="ID" QueryStringField="id" Type="Int32" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
The Problem:
What I then need to do is an IF THEN ELSE statement.
IF [Package in SQL1] = 4 Then
Package 4
IF [Package in SQL1] = 3 Then
Package 3
Only how do I reference the sql value in the if statement.
I have tried
<%IF Eval("Package") = 4 Then %> and with Bind - No good

Hi all, How do I return pictures along with my search results? For example, I have a shoe database and for the results I would like one column to hold a picture of the shoe (the other columns hold Brand, Name, Price, etc) The way I am looking at implementing this is by referencing the image and retrieving it from the server. I'm a bit lost on how to do this though. Any help? Thanks in advance,Nick

Hi,
I'm using MS SQL 2005 Express.
CREATE TABLE Folder (
iD int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1, 1) PRIMARY KEY,
folderName varchar(50) NOT NULL,
parentFolderID int NULL
FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES Folder (iD)
)
GO
if I add an ON DELETE CASCADE to the foreign key, then i get an error... which is annoying. If a folder is deleted, then all its sub-folders should also be automatically deleted.
The error is: 'Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK__Folder__parentFo__7D78A4E7' on table 'Folder' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints.'
Anyone got any advice?

I'm setting up a trigger that will fire off an email explaining that this entry has been updated, however I need a reference to the updated row so I only send that bit of information off.
Heres my code thus far:
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[completeCreation2]
ON [Database_Test].[dbo].[Projects]
AFTER UPDATE
AS
-- SEND EMAIL
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = 'Administration',
@recipients = 'email@email.com',
@body = 'A new project has been created view details of the project below:',
@subject = 'Project Created',
@body_format = 'TEXT',
@importance = 'High',
@query = 'Select * FROM updated';
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
END
I thought the select From updated would work but it doesn't I need a reference for that line, select * FROM _____.
Thanks

Hi
This is probably a noob question. In reference to my previous post about OLE DB and variables, I need to copy the whole result set to a table. i tried
Code Block
exec('insert into '+@tableName+' ('+@ColumnNames+') '+@curTableResult)
where @tableName is the table name, @ColumnNames are the column names and @curTableResult is the Result set produced by the Execute SQL statement before. Obviously didnt work.
How do I copy the Result set to a table?
Thanks

This book 'MS SQL Server 2000 Bible' says the following:
'The foreign key can reference primary keys, unique constraints, or unique indexes of any table'
I've never heard of this before, I thought that the FK always established referential integrity by referencing the PK in the parent table. Does anyone have a further explanation of this?
thx,
Kat

Is there a way to reference textboxes in an SSRS table like one would for cells in Excel? For example, something like =textbox1/textbox2? I am trying to replace a spreadsheet by turning it into an automated report and need to do some horizontal formulas and when I put in the grouped total, it always defaults to averaging percetages from the rows above, which isnt a true summary in my case.

I'm quite new to using t-sql, so hopefully the answer to this should be fairly simple... I have the following basic stored procedure:
Quote: CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SP_Check_Login (
@arg_UserEmail VARCHAR(255),
@arg_UserPassword VARCHAR(255))
AS
BEGIN
SELECT a.userArchived,a.userPasswordDate
FROM app_users a
WHERE a.userEmail = @arg_UserEmail
AND a.userPassword = @arg_UserPassword
END;
GO
What I want to do is some conditional statements on the query results.
i.e:
IF (userArchived = 1)
RETURN "Archived"
ELSE IF (userPasswordDate < dateadd(month,-3,getdate())
RETURN "UpdatePassword"
ELSE
RETURN "OK"
So firstly how to I reference the data returned by the query, and secondly am I on the right track with the conditional code?
Thanks, Mike

Hello,
I have an access database and an SQL database and using data transformation services, i want to update the access database using the SQL data.
Can anyone tell me the syntax for referencing the access database?
Is it something like: [TABLENAME].dbo.FIELDNAME ?
Just to clarify, i have
Microsoft Access Database
Table 1 (UnitHistory)
SQL Database
Table 1 (UnitHistory)
How do i reference these seperately? I want to update the microsoft access database based on the SQL database data.
Eventually i'm trying to update an access database using the data held on my SQL server. Is DTS the best way for me to acomplish this or should i use another method?
Thanks guys

Excuse me if my terminlogy is inaccurate, i'm a .NETer that's new to SQL.
I was wondering if it's possible to reference a column in the WHERE CLAUSE that has been customily defined in the SELECT statement
for example
select employeeID, case when JobCode = 'A' then 'Accountant'
case when JobCode = 'C' then 'Consultant'
case when JobCode = 'B' then 'Biller'
End as JobType
from Employee
where JobType is not null
This does not work, and saids JobType is an invalid column name. Basically, what I want is to display the jobtype of the employee but i also want to only display the employees that are Accountants, consultants and billers.
Is this possible and what would be the best way of doing this?
I do not seem to be about to reference JobType in the WHERE statement.

Is there a way to refer to "current report item" using something like "this" or "me"? For example: I find myself often cutting and copying code to change the format or color of text boxes based on their value thoughout a report, and it seems like it'd be more efficient to write the formatting code once and then call it from each text box.

I have the following data set - there is more to it than whats below, I just made it easier to read and highlight my problem!
SELECT LEFT(actv.ProjID, 4) AS proj, actv.Activity, actv.TotalExpensesLB, actv.PADM
FROM dbo.xtbl_MERActv actv
WHERE LEFT(actv.projID,4) = @project OR actv.PADM = @PADM
What I want to do is have the user enter a 4 digit number (@project) which will correspond to LEFT(actv.ProjID, 4). The way it is now, if the user enters a 4 digit number, no records are returned. If the user enters a 6 digit number ( the real length of the projID), then it runs correctly and I get the records I want.
I have tried to use the alias 'proj' in the where statement, but I get an error message that it is an invalid column name.
Where am I going wrong?
Thanks in advance!

I have a very simple bit of code.
SELECT dbo.MF_PATIENT.Forename,
dbo.MF_PATIENT.Surname,
dbo.MF_PATIENT.DOB,
dbo.MF_PATIENT.Postcode,
Count(dbo.MF_PATIENT.HEYNo) AS CountOfHEYNo
[Code] ....
My issue is I want to run this bit of code but only if dbo_MF_PATIENT.MFPatientID appears in any of the 3 tables below:
dbo_ED_ATTENDANCE, dbo_OP_APPOINTMENT, dbo_IP_ADMISSION
Suppose im unsure on the joining because there is only ever one patient in the
dbo_MF_PATIENT table but they could appear dozens of times in any of the other 3 tables.

Is it possible referencing from one view (table/list/matrix) to another? Basically how to access the other field for instance SUM from different view and used for the other view instead. People mentioned about SCOPE but I don't think this is relevant to this situation ?!?!

Is there a way you can reference a prebuilt CLR function in a custom dataflow task?
The CLR and the custom dataflow task are one in the same. The reason that I'm designing the custom task is that I find that it's time consuming to make a call to the database to retrieve a function to work on something that's already in memory. Also, another reason is that if the code needs to be updated, it doesn't have to be done in 2 places allowing for less confusion.
I tried adding a reference to the CLR function in my SSIS dataflow task, but when I try running it in SSIS, I get the error saying it cannot use a SQL CLR defined task in the package which I believe is due to this reference in the CLR code:
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlFunction]
public static string toCase(string text, string caseType)
Is there a way to circumvent the [...SqlFunction] line of code when the DLL is referenced by an SSIS dataflow task, or do I just have to deal with having 2 copies of the same code?
Thanks in advance!
