SQLState=S1000, Proc To Export Tables Into Flat Files
Feb 28, 2006
Hi,
I am trying to create a Procedure that will export all the tables present in the database to corresponding flat files. The below procedure builds fine but gives a run-time error as below:
SQLState = S1000, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unable to open BCP host data-file
NULL
What am I missing?
Divakar
CREATE Procedure BCP_Text_File_5
AS
BEGIN
Declare @table varchar(100)
Declare @FileName varchar(100)
Declare @str varchar(1000)
DECLARE export_cursor CURSOR LOCAL FOR
select name from dbo.sysobjects where xtype = 'U' and name = 'TestTable'
open export_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM export_cursor INTO @table
BEGIN
set @FileName = 'D:SqlData' + @table + '.txt'
set @str='Exec Master..xp_Cmdshell ''bcp "Select * from '+ db_name() + '..' + @table + '" queryout "'+ @FileName + '" -U sa -P sa -c'''
EXEC (@str)
FETCH NEXT FROM export_cursor INTO @table
END
CLOSE export_cursor
DEALLOCATE export_cursor
end

I used the data export wizard to export a single table to a single flat file (multiple wasn't allowed). I saved the package as a *.dtsx file which I'm attempting to edit to add the additional tables.
Creating additional sources is fairly easy copy of the first source and change to the table name.
I've tried copying the destination connection and changing to a new text file, but can't get past having to add each column manually to the new destination.
How can I duplicate the mapping that must be taking place in the wizard in the *.dtsx editing environment?
This seems like a simple / common task, but I've been unable to find a solution.
Thanks, Richard

So we are running SQL 2000 and we use a DTS Package to load about 100 txt files to different tables in a SQL DB.
So in DTS packages you define the connection (database) and the different source files will connect to the connection.
You define the destination on the flow arrow. My question is how do i accomplish this in SQL 2008 using SSIS. (upgrading SQL).

Hi.
I've tried to create a SSIS package to simply export a bunch of tables as flat files, and am having troubles because when the for each loop hits the second table the column mappings in the flat file destination are not synchronised with its schema.
I created a for each loop with an enumerator that returns the table names and sets a user variable.
I created a data flow task which dynamically connects to the table name variable.
In the Flat File Destination there is a column mapping property, but I don't know how to reset these mappings on each iteration.
Any ideas?

I have been tasked to do the following using SSIS.
We received two csv files each week and we would like to load these files to two different sql server tables using SSIS.
These files should be archived into a folder after each load.
How can I achieve this?

I am trying to export the data from a number of MSSQL 2000 tables to UTF8 csv files.
Using the bcp that came with MSSQL 2000 didn't work (UTF8 related), so I am now accessing the 2000 database from within MSSQL 2008 R2 Management Studio and use its Import and Export wizard that does make UTF8 exports possible.
But it fails. This is the error I got for one table.
Code:
- Validating (Error)

Every day an application creates new tables and dumps static info into them.
I would like to create a package to dynamically export those database tables to raw files for long term archive, one file per table. Here is what I have so far and the issue I am having.
1) Get a list of un-archived tables.
2) Foreach table do the following.
a. Export the table into raw file.
b. Zip the raw file.
c. Update archive tracking table.
As long as the metadata for each table is the same this package seems to work fine. However, I have many tables with different metadata. How can I dynamically get the package update the metadata column collection when it hits a new table? When it hits a table with different metadata I am getting warnings like this:
The column "some_column" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection.
The "external metadata column "someother_column" (103)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection.
Then I get this error:
Error: 0xC004706B at dump the table into a raw file, DTS.Pipeline: "component "OLE DB Source" (1)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA"

I have a couple of hundred flat files to import into database tables using SSIS.
The files can be divided into groups by the format they use. I understand that I could import each group of files that have a common format at the same time using a Foreach Loop Container.
However, the example for the Foreach Loop Container has multiple files all being imported into the same database table. In my case, each file needs to be imported into a different database table.
Is it possible to import each set of files with the same format into different tables in a simple loop? I can't see a way to make a Data Flow Destination item accept its table name dynamically, which seems to prevent me doing this.
I suppose I could make a different Data Flow Destination item for each file, in the Data Flow. Would that be a reasonable solution, or is there a simpler solution, or should I just resign myself to making a separate Data Flow for every single file?

Hi,
I have searched but not found quite the best way to look at this so far..
I have an application that outputs data to several text files (up to 30). These have commonality by an object name, but then contain completely different column data.
In DTS I had each of the source text file connections going to one OLE DB connection and then individual transform data tasks pointing to the one OLE DB connection.
Looking at SSIS, it would appear that I would need to have one source and one destination for each of these and therefore 30 parallel data flows?
Just wondering if there is a neater way of doing this??
It is a regular data import that happens a few times a day - the text files are named the same as the SQL tables - ie app_userdata.txt goes to app_userdata table.
Hope that explains ok and thanks in advance.
Mike

Hi all,
I copied the following code from MSDN2 bcp Utility:
bcp AdventureWorks.Sales.Currency2 in Currency.dat -T -c
and executed it in my C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinn>.
I got the following errors:
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].
SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 2
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
Please help and tell me what wrong with this BCP execution or with the database, and how to make this BCP working.
Thanks,

We have a need to export a couple of reports to a flat file (not csv). I am thinking that the easiest way to do this is to write a custom extension. Should I do it this way and if so, can somebody point me to some resources or is there an easier way to do this?
Thanks for the information.

I am new to the Integration Services and have a question. I need to export some data to a flat file. I set up a project and have a OLE DB Source object that I wrote a query to grab the data. I then pass that data to a Flat File Destination object. My question is that in the database one of the fields is stored at True or False, but in the flat file I need for it to be -1 or 0. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I want to use SSIS to export to a flat file, for various reasons.
However, my flat file has padded out each column to match the number of characters in the DBase column.
See below for example. The first column is char(3), the second is char(9), the third is char(9) etc
How to I get rid off the excess spaces.
What I get
2*852240 *5006 *MPH00095-02 *200709241200*200709241230

We have begun useing SSIS to export data into a Data warehouse.
For continuity of service and testing perposes I wish to export to flat files.
However, although the export seems to work fine, I get alot od spaces in my text file.
It seems to pad out to the exact number of characters in the data base, i.e. Char(3) outputs 1 character plus an extra 2 spaces, char(9) gives me the six characters + 3 spaces.
I cannot change the DBase.
How do I get rid of the extra spaces?
Requirement.

Hi-I have a sql 2005 server (New to me) that I need to get a report out of of type .inputIt needs to be in the format: HeaderRowreportTitile + rowcount()+ DateFixedWidthcol1 (spaces pad this field to 25) FixedWidthCol2FixedWidthcol3..... FixedWidthcol1 (spaces pad this field to 25) FixedWidthCol2FixedWidthcol3..... The columns in the flatfile HAVETO run into eachother, with NO delimiters.If i try and export it as a fixedWidth file, the columns DON'T line up. If I try as a delimited file, I can't do it w/o having a delimiter character in between.I'm creating an SSIS file (New to me) to do this, is this my best shot of getting a flat text file that I can then ftp to another server? thanksDan

Firstly, I hope this question isn't asked too frequently but I found no existing reference to this situation....
I had a bunch of stored procedures in SQL 2k which imported and exported data to and from flat files using TEXTPTR, READTEXT, UPDATETEXT etc... The flat files were continuously changing so the filepath was a parameter for the sp.
The reason I used the pointer to flat files is because I didn't want to
load the files in memory before commiting them ie. with TEXTPTR and
UPDATETEXT I can import a 1Gb binary file 80000 bytes at a time and
keep (precious) memory usage down.
I was accessing this procs from a C# application.
Since these methods are going to be phased out by the guys at MS what is the best way of importing/exporting very large binary files in SQL 2005?
As far as I can tell SSIS requires a Flat File Source Manager object which needs a static filepath - not good.
Hope you can help,
Paul

Hello,
I have not worked with NTEXT data before. I have a situation where I need to export a SQL Server 2000 table of data that has NTEXT columns in it. The plan is to archive the data to CD, and delete the data from the table once it has been archived.
I have tried exporting the data to a text file and specified a Ragged Right format in the Flat File connection manager. Do I need to somehow concatenate the data from the table in order to export it to this kind of file?
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
I need to export some data from SQL 2005 to a flat file, The data and flat file names will be dynamic and will be be fired programaticaly so I can't use DTS or SSIS.
In SQL2000 I did it using bcp, but that's quite a security hole so I don't want to use external utilities. I'll need to do something similar on another machine to import the data as well.
I find it strange there's no easy way to do this!
Thanks.

1) I need to automatically import data from a text file on a daily basis. Can someone tell me in short, simple steps how to set this up?
2) I need to export certain data into a new Excel sheet. Can this be triggered from a stored procedure, by calling some function? If yes, is it possible to send parameters to this function?

I'm exporting using a query to a flat .txt file. The problem I'm encountering is when I export the data and then open the .txt file into excel some columns cause line breaks to the next row. The columns that are breaking to a new row are varchar fields where the user has entered text into the field with double quotes ".
When I export, I'm using row delimiter {CR}{LF} column delimiter Comma and text qualifier Double Quote (")
Is there a way to prevent this from happening when I export and open the flat file into Excel?
I tried using replace, but I was getting a syntax error in my query. Here is the query without using replace:
SELECT e.session_date, l.lab_no, i.first_name + ' ' + i.last_name AS Teacher,
tt.name, d.district_name, s.school_name, t.title, a.q1 AS Question1, a.q2 AS Question2,
a.q3 AS Question3, a.q4 AS Question4, a.q5 AS Question5, a.q6 AS Question6, a.q7 AS Question7,
a.q8 AS Question8, a.q9 AS Question9, a.q10 AS Question10
FROM evaluation e
LEFT OUTER JOIN training t ON t.id = e.training
LEFT OUTER JOIN lab l ON l.id = e.lab_no
LEFT OUTER JOIN instructor i ON i.id = e.instructor
LEFT OUTER JOIN trainee tt ON tt.id = e.trainee
LEFT OUTER JOIN district d ON d.id = e.district
LEFT OUTER JOIN school s ON s.id = e.school
LEFT OUTER JOIN answers a ON a.id = e.answers
WHERE session_date >= '20070401' AND session_date < '20070501'
I would need to use the replace on columns a.q7, a.q8, a.q9, and a.q10
I tried using another delimiter...pipes (|) and that didn't work? Maybe I was attempting it incorrectly?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I am trying to export a table with ~ 10 Million rows to a flat file and it is taking for ever with SQL2005 export functionality. I have tried creating an SSIS package with a flat-file destination and the results are the same. In each case it does the operation in chunks of about 9900+ rows, and each chunk takes ~1-2 minutes which sounds unreasonable.
I tried bcp, and it fails after a few thousand rows. I tried moving the data to SQL2000 first then to flat file from SQL2K, but the move from SQL2005->SQL2000 was going at the same rate as above.
So, the bottleneck seems to be data going out of SQL2005 no matter what the destination is. I'm wondering if there is some setting that Iam missing that would make this run in a reasonable amount of time?

Hello Everyone.
I am a bit new to SQL Server but not to DBA or programming per se. I am having difficulties getting either an Excel or Text flat file to import properly.
I guess it would be best to ask, using either SSIS or BULK INSERT, what options need to be entered for a typical excel flat file?
