SS2005 - Fuzzy Transforms Availability
Sep 7, 2007
I understand that only Enterprise Edition has support for Fuzzy Lookup and Fuzzy Grouping transforms, but we will likely be migrating to Standard shortly - Enterprise would be complete overkill for our organisation and needs, and is beyond our budget constraints too.
I have been using these in the CTP of Katmai, and have found them exceptionally useful for my work.
Any chance of these transforms being made available as an "add-on" for Standard (or other versions)?
It does not seem that it is something inextricably tied to the different versions - just a licencing decision, right?
Or would the proposal be to go with Standard and one additional purchase of Developer Edition?

I'd like to know if it is possible to automatically (or through ActiveX programming) trigger a DTS transformation task to refresh it's query
and auto re-map its source to destination columns based on the query.
I have a DTS package that exports all columns from a table
(Select * from table) with no special column transformations when
copying to the text file destination. I'd like to be able to trigger
a refresh of the column mapping. The "Define Columns" "Populate from Source"
buttons on the Transform Data Task component does this but I'd like to achieve this action as a separate task.
Thank you kindly,
Sonya Lisi

When I retrieve data using an OLE DB Source I can create a SQL query and pass parameters to filter the data I get back. I'd like to do the same thing with the Lookup Transform but the parameters button isn't there. Am I missing something or do I have to use some special text format to insert my parameters into the query?
Thanks in advance.

I've been looking into ways to accomplish a fuzzy search and SSIS makes that possible if I want to do a bulk import or something like it. But what it I just want to look stuff up at any given time not haveing to run the package?
Is it possible to expose the fuzzy lookup outside of SSIS to for example t-sql?
Here's an example:
I want to lookup the music artist "Notorious BIG" but in the database it is "Notorious B.I.G." if I use the SSIS fuzzy lookup I basically get what I'm looking for. But how would I call this from a web application? So then I tried Full text search but this doesn't really work out as well.
Will I have to re-write the logic that the fuzzy lookup uses to enable it to work? i.e. using Full Text Indexes and FreeTextTable, ContainsTable, SoundEx and the like to somewhat even come close to what the Fuzzy Lookup has?

Derived column that transforms a CASE statement?
CASE
WHEN [MAIN_GAME] IS NULL AND combo.[CAT_PRODUCT] ='25' THEN 'Standalone'
WHEN [MAIN_GAME] IS NULL AND combo.[CAT_PRODUCT] <> '25' THEN 'No main game'
ELSE LOWER(prod.[TX_PRODUCT_NAME])
END AS [TX_MAIN_GAME]
CAT_MAIN_GAME = nvarchar(6)

I implemented a custom source adaptor. I want to be able to associate custom properties with each of the output columns. I want them to be passed downsteam. The idea is to be able to retrieve these information in a downstream custom transformations of ours and process the various columns accordingly. How do I go about doing this?I noticed that the IDTSCustomProperty90 seems to have a local scope only.

The enterprise edition of SQL server includes some advanced BI features, for example the fuzzy lookup feature of IS. If the IS package lives on an enterprise edition of SQL server and the database the package it is targeting lives on a standard edition of SQL server can the advanced features be used? Can you run a fuzzy look against a database on a standard edition of SQL server when th IS package lives on an enterprise edition of SQL server? THANKS!

I have SS 2005 express* working(yrs) on a XP home ver. laptop. I got a new Acer w/ Vista hm/premium and I registered/can't get SS 2005 express* to download from MSDN.
Norton's gives a file block, I click the 'download file' and nothing happens. No dialog, hd drv activity, nothing - just 'Done'
on IE7 status. I have Visual Web Developer beta v2 2008** running on the Acer and don't want to trash the install.
.NET fwrk v2.0 is listed required for SS2005, but .NET fwrk v3.5 says it includes v2.0 + WCF,...(right? - install both?)
I need a SS for VWD 2008. I've ask/tried several times. What am I doing wrong?

Hello,
I have installed SSs2005 - Standard Edition.
During this installation, also Visual Studio is installed.
I do not understand what i can do with this Studio version.
I mean, i understand that with SS2005 there is a connectivity between sql server and visual studio. For example i could create store procedures with Visual Studio. (clr applications).
But when i start the Viual Studio screen i can only select Business Inteligence Projects.
What do i need, when i want to create functions, stored procedures and what do i need to develop SMO applications?
Please give me some light on this matter.

Every time a transaction log is dumped we see the following message in the log file:

And yet, the actual log dump appears fine and the file is found on the share. The dump is done with a maintenance plan.
Any ideas?

I'm trying to migrate/upgrade some databases from 2000 to 2005 and am having a problem. Apparently, the Upgrade Advisor can't analyze a SS2000 database if it is in a named instance. (see below)
This problem occurs because the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor cannot connect to the named instance of SQL Server 2000.
The SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor uses information that the SQL Server Browser service returns when the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor tries to connect to an instance of SQL Server 2000. However, the SQL Server Browser service cannot return the correct information about the connection request. Therefore, the connection fails.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908454
Doesn't this make the UA tool useless for named instances on SS2000? Are there any plans to correct this issue? Or, is there a workaround available?

SQL Server 2005
Hi Everyone. We have a stored proc that performs several bulk inserts. I need to find a way to allow the bulk insert to truncate data. Also, I would like to be able to send back to .NET the exact line that failed if a failure does occur.
Right now, the stored proc fails because of truncation. Could this be because there's a check for @@ERRROR <> 0 right after the bulk insert? Does anyone know if a truncation occurs, if that will "throw" an error to the catch block? This is NOT what we want. Can anyone help me to understand how to do this correctly?
Thanks,
Angel

Hi there!
I expercience some problems in sending the alert mails to the operator when an Agent Failure Alert happens.
I have setup MSSQL 2005 with merge replication and have setup mail the ss2005 way. I also can send test mails via the Database mail context menu.
I have setup a operator with a valid emailadress and enabled is checked
On the notifications page 'Agent Failure Alert' is checked.
When this alert fires the number of occurences in the history of this alert is incremented (as I can see via the alertsection-Agentfailure-history) this alert is also enabled. The problem is that the operator does not get notified!
So I can send test email from the DB, have setup an Operator with emailadress, have enabled an alert and see the number of occurences of this alert increment. I don't get any alert mails. The notifications attempt in the history page of the operator does not increment. It says: [never emailed]
Well I hope you can help!

I'm currently using the evaluation version of SS2005 and would like to use PerformancePoint with Analysis Services. PerformancePoint requires the cumulative update package 3 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2, or Build 3186, according to the documentation. The version for SS2005 is the following:
MSSQLSERVER
Analysis Services
[Version: 9.00.1399.06 Edition: Enterprise Evaluation Edition Patch level: 9.00.1399.06 Language: English (United States)]
The same version, patch level is repeated for all of the SS2005 components. Do I have a compatible SS2005 version for PerformancePoint.
Thanks,

I'm trying to create a SQL Agent job and schedule that executes an SSIS Package, but when I try to run the job I get the following error:
Executed as user: adApp1. The package could not be loaded.
The App1 user is the Identity used in the Credential for the Proxy which has the SSIS Packages Subsystem.
The package encryption is set EncryptAllWithPassword and that password is included in the Command line with the /DECRYPT option.
The package is stored on the server in the SSIS Package Store and was placed there via the Import package option. Does the method matter?
One thing that I haven't been able to track down is exactly what permissions the domain account adApp1 needs on the server or in SQL Server, if any, in order to run the package. Not sure if that has any affect anyway.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have an SSIS package that takes data from a table in Access and puts it into a fact table in SS2005. Very little data manipulation is done. It processes approximately 1.5 million rows when it runs weekly. The process is run in an SSIS package that is called by a parent package, and all of that (including the use of the config files and accessing the parent variables) is working fine.
The issue is there is one field in the Access table that must be put into a different SS2005 fact table.
When I run the data flow task that loads the first fact table, it completes in less than two minutes. However, if I either (a) put a multicast step in the dataflow task to redirect a copy of the key data and remaining field to the second fact table, or (b) copy that step in the package to have it perform the same tasks with the different target (and using just the key and the remaining field), the execution time suddenly jumps to 30 minutes. In the case of (b), it remains true whether the copied step remains in the package or is executed in its own package, and also remains true if the package is loading against a table that starts out empty or with data already in it.
Has anyone ever bumped into a situation like this?

We have a two SQL Server 2005 databases set up using Transactional Replication. My manager has asked me to set it up to replicate constraints (default, fk, et) on the tables in the main publication. I said sure, I can do it, but I will have to re-initialize the subscription. He said there was a way to do it without re-initializing the subscription. I cannot find anything in my research to indicate that there is a method to do so (via call sp_ functions, etc). Is it indeed possible to replicate constraints on replicated tables without re-initializing the who subscription? The reason he does not want me to perform a re-initialization is that we are a few weeks before moving into production, and a full re-initialization takes 1.5 days, which would impact system availability.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi,
We are implementing push transaction replication from Production SQL Server 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 reporting server and SQL Server 2000 Test server.
SQL Server 2000 PROD to 2000 Test is simple but from SS2000 to SS2005 I have following questions:
Is it feasible to create push subscription from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 database?
When I am trying to setup publisher/subscription properties, It only give me options to pick SQL Server 7.0 or 2000 or heterogeneous databases.
When I am trying to register SQL Server 2005 database in EM of SS2000 it don't allow me to add it and through exception that I need to use Management studio, Is there any alternate way to register?
Thanks

I am executing sp_dropmergesubscription, but the rows are still in dbo.msmerge_subscriptions, and are still shown in the replication monitor as expired; the last synch dates were in april (expiration is set to 10 days). The 'expired subscription clean up' job appears to be running okay. I need to remove these subscriptions from the publisher as the subscribers are mobile devices, which sometimes are lost.

Windows XP Pro - Sql Server 2005 Management Studio (current) - current visual foxpro oledb driver
I have an origin data folder with many foxpro dbf files
When I go through the "wizard" to import data from the origin folder using the "free table" option, I can locate the folder just fine. The form shows me a list of the files in the folder - but I cannot scroll through the list.
When I select the folder and continue, I test the connection and get a message that it is fine.
Then I go on to actually import tables. The list that is presented of tables that I can import does not include all the dbf files in the folder. There are 207 files in the origin folder, but only a fraction (about 120) of those show up in the list as candidates to be imported. I cannot see a pattern to the ones that are excluded from the list.
Does anyone know what could be causing this strange behavior?
Thanks.

Hi!

tables and indexes to new file groups.

Are there some good strategies about shrinking the mdf file?
I had to restart the instanse because got problem using the db while dbcc runned...

Hi ,
I am trynig to insert an image from the Windows mobile to the SQL database.
Is it possible to perform this using RDA ?
After some search in this forum , I got an impression that the only way to do this by storing the image in a local database and then do a merge replication.
I do not want to do the merge replcation just fo rthis reason.
Is it possible in RDA?
Debugging shows only some part of the data is getting updated.
While trying to retrieve the image in a webpage error is poping up.
My code is :
string strbytes = (Convert.ToBase64String(bytes)).ToString();
DbObj.GetSubmitSql("Update Odrs set SignedBy ='" + txtSign.Text + "', Signature = Convert(Image,'" + bytes + "') where OrderId=" + orderNo + "");
Please help....
