SQL Server 2008 :: Error - The Column Delimiter For Column Was Not Found
Mar 26, 2010
I am getting an error importing a csv file both using SSIS and SSMS. The csv is comma delimited with quotes for text qualifiers. The file gets partially loaded and then gives me an error stating The column delimiter for column "MyColumn" was not found. In SSIS it gives me the data row which is apparently causing the problem but when I look at the file in a text editor at the specific row identified the file has the comma delimiter and it looks fine. I am using SQL Server 2008.

I am building a generic SSIS where it takes a text source file and converts to a destination source file . However in the process I want to set the row delimiter and the column delimiter dynamically through the package variable. So that I can use it for any file transfer.
I saw the option for row delimiter in the file connection string property but did not see any column delimiter option.

I am altering a table ( changing the data type to varchar (8000) from nvarchar (1500) ) with 352929 rows. I get the transaction log full error.
The database is in FULL RECOVERY model. I changed the recovery model to SIMPLE and performed the alter but I still run into error.

I just have a question regarding storing values to a column in ms sql 2008.
Why is it that the value I inserted at the column is truncated when selected in a query.
The column for this is created to accept max. values.
-> Message VARCHAR(MAX) NULL
The string which I need to insert is a combination of characters with a length of 14,720.
According to some forums, the max value that a column can hold is 8000 chars. only (Is this true? even though I set it to MAX?)

I am getting "Row not found on subscriber" error on the subscriber. I am trying to find the root cause.
1. Records get lost during publication initialization from backup, could not reproduce it though. I was inserting records in a loop into a replicated table while initializing the publication from backup. After the backup/restore finished, I have stopped the insert, allowed the replication to catch up and compared the row count, it was identical.
2. Someone or some process is deleting the records on the subscriber. Setup Audit, but could not confirm this theory so far.
3. Records get deleted twice, as we publish the execution of some bulk delete archive jobs, to fix latency issues. Found this article, which says, this is not the case:
[URL]
4. Records are deleted on the subscriber by triggers. The impacted database has no triggers.
I am running SQL Server 2008 R2.
What else could be the cause of this problem?

I'm in a flat file connection manager editor and I have a flat file where the columns are separated by a space. Does anyone know how to specify a space in the column delimiter option? I've tried {' '} and {s} but these don't work. Not sure what the syntax is for indicating a space. Thanks in advance

Hello Everyone,
Hope someone will be able to help me out here.
I have a text file exported from my DTS package and it requires an '!' as a custom column delimiter.
Does anyone have any idea how I can use the '!' mark instead of the Tab or Vertical Bar as my Column Delimiter?
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Kay

Hi,
is there any way to change the delimiter in a FlatFile Source Adapter dynamically? You can do that with the row delimiter but there is no expression for the column delimiter... Is there any other way besides changing the XML code?
Thanks,

hi guys,
i am working on a project witch involves creating packages on-the-fly to import data from txt/csv/xls files according to some definitions on the database.
so far, i have been doing fine.
now we are planning the ASP.net page that enables the customer to define the input file format that will be imported to the system. we want it to have the same listBox as the FlatFileConnectionManager Editor has to define some properties, such as - column delimeiter.
the code to set the column delimiter looks like this:
SSISRunTime.IDTSConnectionManagerFlatFile90 myFilecn = null;
myFilecn = (SSISRunTime.IDTSConnectionManagerFlatFile90)package.Connections["InputFileConnection"].InnerObject;
DtsConvert.ToConnectionManager90(package.Connections["InputFileConnection"]);
SSISRunTime.IDTSConnectionManagerFlatFileColumn90 col
col = myFilecn.Columns.Add(); //.....
string colDelimiter ="|" ; // it actually gets the data from the database... but it is the same thing
col.ColumnDelimiter = colDelimiter;
when we deal with the simple characters- "," , ";" , "|" ... we have no problems with setting the delimiter. but how can i set the delimiter to Tab? or {CR} ? {LF}?
i tried to look at the dtsx- XML , and i see that the column delimiter that is defined when i choose Tab is: _x007C_, but when i try to do something like this:
col.ColumnDelimiter = "_x007C_" ;
it doesn't work. the same happens when I try "{t}" or "Tab".
how do i solve this problem, and enable the user to select Tab as a column delimiter?
Thanks!

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

This is a followup to a previous question to a previous but in reverse of Find rows where value in column not found in another row
Given one table, Table1, with columns Key1 (int), Key2 (int), and Type (varchar)...
I would like to exclude any two rows where Type is equal to 'TypeA' and Key2 is Null that have a corresponding row in the table where Type is equal to 'TypeB' and Key2 is equal to Key1 from another row.
So, given the data
**KEY1** **Key2** **Type**
1 NULL TypeA
2 5 TypeA
3 1 TypeB
4 NULL TypeA
5 NULL TypeB
6 26 TypeC
7 NULL TypeD
8 NULL TypeD
I would like to return all the rows except where Key=1 and Key=3 because those rows together meet the criteria of Type='TypeA'/Key2=NULL and does have a corresponding row with Type='TypeB'/Key1=Key2.

Can't seem to make this SQL query work!
Given one table, Table1, with columns Key1 (int), Key2 (int), and Type (varchar)...
I would like to get the rows where Type is equal to 'TypeA' and Key2 is Null that do NOT have a corresponding row in the table where Type is equal to 'TypeB' and Key2 is equal to Key1 from another row
So, given the data
**KEY1** **Key2** **Type**
1 NULL TypeA
2 5 TypeA
3 1 TypeB
4 NULL TypeA
5 NULL TypeB
I would like to return only the row where Key1 = 4 because that row meets the criteria of Type='TypeA'/Key2=NULL and does not have a corresponding row with Type='TypeB'/Key1=Key2 from another row.
I have tried this and it doesn't work...
SELECT t1.Key1, t1.Key2, t1.Type
FROM Table1 t1
WHERE t1.Key2 IS NULL
AND t1.Type LIKE 'TypeA'
AND t1.Key1 NOT IN
(SELECT Key1
FROM Table1 t2
WHERE t1.Key1 = t2.Key2
AND t1.Key1 <> t2.Key1
AND t2.Type LIKE 'TypeB')

I'm trying to write a query that will display the formula for a computed column in SQL Server 2008R2.
I have looked here: [URL] ....
and it say (at least I think) that I can look at the Formula property of COLUMNPROPERTY like this:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME ,
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsComputed'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'Formula'),
COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME),COLUMN_NAME,'IsDeterministic')
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Event' AND COLUMN_NAME = 'CurrentAttendance'
I know the column is computed and I can see the formula in SSMS. I wanted to do this in T-SQL. How to get this value?

I have a request to export some table data to excel and the "notes" column (varchar 255) contains multiple lines separated by CR/LF. when I export to excel, the first record with CR/LF messes up the column alignment in excel, throwing off the format from that point on. how can i export to excel so that it preserves these CR/LF. or if not, how can I remove these characters so that excel can handle it?
See attached example

I need to add a calculated column item in the same column. Please see SQL Codes for both existing data and desired outcome.
Product O is added according to:

for 201502 Product O= sum of sum of en_count for product Y,W,N when yrmnth=20150
SQL:
--Existing Data
--===== If the test table already exists, drop it
IF OBJECT_ID('TempDB..#Table1') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Table1
--===== Create the test table with
CREATE TABLE #Table1
(
product char(100),

I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

I have two tables having one row identifier column each of int datatype. Both these columns are part of the respective primary keys. Now as a part of my process, i'm inserting one small part of data from one table to another table. This was working fine but suddenly started getting error like
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_TargetTable'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'DW.TargetTable'. The duplicate key value is (58544748).First I checked with DBCC CHECKIDENT with NORESEED and found that there is difference in the current identity value and current column value. I fixed it by running DBCC CHECKIDENT. But to my surprise again got the same issue. interesting thing is that the error comes after inserting 65466 records.

Can I accomplish encrypting a column with a trigger similar to below, but without the 'SSN' column?
I added the SSN column just so I could pass an UNencrypted value. Seems round-about & clunky.
This works:
Insert into TestSSNs(UserID, SSN, Name) VALUES (NEWID(), '890-12-0007', 'Gina')
---------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE TestSSNs (
UserIDuniqueidentifier,
SSNVarchar(11) , --plain text, should always be null
eSSN VarBinary(128), --encrypted value
[Name]Varchar(50)
);
