SSIS: Flat File Source W/non-standard Row Delimiter
Jun 20, 2006I have a flat file that is row delimited by x00 x0D x0A. Any ideas on how to specify the row delimiter in the Columns section of the Flat File Connection Manager?

Flat File Source - How To Configure An Appropriate Column Delimiter?
Feb 19, 2008Good 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
Reading From SSIS Flat File Source?
Feb 9, 2012I have a simple SSIS package -> It reads a local text file which has 10 rows of data ( id, name, telephone # ) and puts it into a table.
It uses the "SSIS Flat File source" to read and a "SQL Command" to insert into the table. I can see that it reads line by line and puts each line into one row in my table.
Now, my production data is over 5 GiG of mainframe data and it seems their data is arranged in some hierarchical form.. so the position or arrangement of data in that file is important.
I pulled the data using my package and as far as I can see , my SSIS package pulled one line at a time ( from the flat file) and pushed it into my table. For each row, I also created an identity column in my table to be able to identify the positional arrangement of the hierarchical data and then use relational mappings to suit our business needs.
In all of this, my assumption is -
"SSIS reads one line at a time, inserts to my table and goes down to the next line .
It does NOT read a snapshot of rows from the flat file so as to write them into the table using internal ordering methods based on that particular snapshot "
My question is .. is my assumption correct ?
Flat File - Row Delimiter Problem
Feb 1, 2006Hi,
I'm trying to design this package where i take data from a source and need to transform it into a flatfile with some extra static information.
I use a SQL script like this (ex.):
SELECT '
BS0220131264202400000130001'+cast(wa.perf_applicant_number as nvarchar)+'000000000' + wa.perf_firstname + ' ' + wa.perf_lastname + CHAR(13)+
'BS0220131264202400000330001'+REPLICATE('0',(15-LEN(wa.perf_applicant_number)))+cast(wa.perf_applicant_number as nvarchar)+'000000000' + WAPD2.strvalue+ '
BS0520131264202410001130001'+REPLICATE('0',(15-LEN(wa.perf_applicant_number)))+cast(wa.perf_applicant_number as nvarchar)+'000000000 tekst der skal stå på kortet' as nvarchar
FROM dbo.WAIT_Applicant WA (nolock)
This makes the text (from one record) split up over several lines in the output.
I succeded with this in a SQL2000 DTS package and the flat txt-file looked liked I wan't it to. But now i tried doing it in 2005. And now it is not workin' anymore
In my Flat File Connection Manager Editor i chose {LF} as the row delimiter and the preview looks really nice. Like this:
BS0220131264202400000130001000000015826727000000000Søren Hesth
BS0220131264202400000330001000000015826727000000000adfasdf
BS0520131264202410001130001000000015827207000000000 tekst der skal stå på kortet
But in the file that is created it doesn't split up over several lines. Instead of a carriage return it puts a [black box] - a sign which counts as the carriage return.
I don't know if I have explained this well enough, but I hope that someone can help me. I've been trying for 3 days now.
SSIS: Flat File Source With Wildcarded Filename
Aug 14, 2007My task is to write an SSIS package that picks up just one file from a directory and loads it into a database table. The filename is defined as being "ABC*.txt". So I must pick up only one file that matches that wildcard.
I can see two ways of doing this, but I can't get either to work:-
1. Use a Flat File Source connection and put the wildcard in the ConnectionString.
i.e. ConnectionString = "C:\mydirABC*.txt"
But SSIS doesn't seem to support that.
2. Use a Foreach Loop Container with a Foreach File Enumerator, and configure the enumerator as:-
Folder = c:mydir
Files = ABC*.txt
This works well, but loops round for as many files match the wildcard. Is there any way of forcing it to drop out after the first time round the loop?
Or am I missing a much easier solution?
Thanks.
SSIS FLAT FILE SOURCE DOESNT RUN BY SQL AGENT
May 21, 2008
HELLO,
I'M NEW OF SQL SERVER BUT I'VE ALREADY GOT A LOT OF GOOD ADVICES BY YOU
I'M NOT IN ABLE TO RUN BY SQL SERVER AGENT AN SSIS PACKAGE:
THE PACKAGE IS MADE AS BELOW:
DATA SOURCE: FLAT FILE;
OLE DB DESTINATION: SQL SERVER DBO.TABLE
I HAVE SEVERAL KIND OF DATA FLOWS SCHEDULED TO RUN DAILY, AND ALL OF THEM RUNNING CORRECTLY.
THE ONLY ONE I'M ACTUALLY NOT IN ABLE TO MAKE RUN BY JOB IS THIS ONE. (BY VISUAL STUDIO RUNS FINE )
I'M GETTING BACK THE FOLLOWING ERROR:
Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for component "Flat File Source 1 1" (32)
I'VE GOT A LOOK ON WEB, AND SEEN THAT THIS ERROR IS NOTICED WHEN SSIS IS NOT INSTALLED ON THE CLIENT MACHINE, BUT THIS IS NOT MY CASE SSIS IS FULL INSTALLED AND RUNNING.
I'VE ALSO TRIED TO RUN THE PACKAGE DIRECTLY FROM THE SERVER MACHINE...IT DOESN'T RUN EVEN LIKE THAT
I'VE DISCOVERED THAT SOME SSIS FEATURES IS NOT AVAILABLE WIT SQL SERVER STANDARD EDITION ( THIS IS MY LICENSE ) DO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW WHETHER THIS IS THE CASE OR NOT?
P.S.
I'M PART OF SYSADMIN GROUP...JUST IN CASE
Row Count In Flat File Data Source Using SSIS
Jan 29, 2008
Hi,
I am trying to impliment a SSIS package where data source is a Flat file(.csv) file and destination is a sql server database.
The problem is my data source a flat file which consists of thousands of rows which are manually entered, so there is always a chance that in some rows they may miss a column value while entering data which results in an error.
Example: My flat file has headers like Sln, Name, Age, Designation. While entering data they may miss age and type it as 1,aaa,Consultant,,
Using SSIS package i want to track all row number in the flat file where data is entered wrongly so that i can correct only that row instead of checking all rows each time when my SSIS package throughs an error. I want to get all the row numbers in a sql server database which are wrongly entered.
Any suggestions are sincerly apriciated.
Thanks in advance

Text Qualifier In SSIS Designer For Flat File Source
May 19, 2008
Unlike SQL Server 2000 DTS, SSIS Flat File Connection Manager Editor does not provide available list of Text qualifier,
i tried
-- ""
-- double quote {"}
-- "
--{"}
but none of them worked....!
My file sample looks like this
"Col1","Col2"
"1234","3456"
"3456","1234"
what qualifier should I use then?
Many Thanks,
Flat File Name As SSIS Data Source Input Parameter
Feb 29, 2008Each day I receive a file with a different name. For example, the name is filename_mmddyyyy.txt where filename_ stays constant and mmddyyyy is the date of the file. The file is always in the same format.
I want to build an SSIS where I pass it this file name. I can write a script to generate the correct file name. How do I build the SSIS so it can accept the input parameter and find the correct file to process?

SSIS - Handling Different Types Of Record In Same Flat File Source
May 10, 2006Hi,
I've just started looking at SSIS and have encountered what should hopefully be a simple problem to solve. I have a pipe-separated source file that looks like this (I've added Line numbers for simplicity):
Ln 01: HDR|FEED_CODE|31-MAR-2006
Ln 02: Tom|100|Jones|ZZ1 1ZZ|USA
Ln 03: Tom|200|Singer|
Ln 04: Tom|305||Red|Porche ||Lanzarote |Apple|Carrot| | |
Ln 05: Dick|100|Van Dyke|ZZ1 1ZZ|USA
Ln 06: Dick|200|Actor|
Ln 07: Dick|305||Blue|Ford||California |Tomato | |||Beef
Ln 08: Harry|100|Houdini|ZZ1 1ZZ|GBR
Ln 09: Harry|200|Escapologist|
Ln 10: Harryk|305| |Green ||Triumph |Poland|Banana|Sprout| | |
Ln 11: TRL|9
In addition to a header and footer records, this file contains three record types for each person.
Record types are identified by the second column.
Each record type has a different number of columns:
Type 100 has 5 columns
Type 200 has 4 columns
Type 305 has 12 columns
The Row delimiter for all records is the {CR}{LF} character
I've set up a flat file input source and specified {CR}{LF} as the row delimiter for both header and data rows and the "|" character as the field delimiter.
It appears that SSIS is assuming that because the first data row has 5 columns, then everything must fit that format too. So the {CR}{LF} character that separates lines 02 and 03 is interpreted as text rather than a separation character and all remaining | field separators after 305 are interpreted as text containing in the fifth column. SSIS is also complaining that the last row is incomplete.
A bit like this (I've used tildes to indicate column separation):
Tom~100~Jones~ZZ1 1ZZ~USA
Tom~200~Singer~{CR}{LF}Tom~305||Red|Porche ||Lanzarote |Apple|Carrot| | |
I've seen one other reference to this behaviour but the response seemed to be SSIS doesn't know which columns are missing. In this scenario, we don't have missing columns, rather, we have different types of record in a single file. in DTS I would effectively parse the file once for each record type thus:
if cStr(DTSSource("Col002")) = "100" then
DTSDestination("in_Name") = trim(DTSSource("Col001"))
...
Main = DTSTransformStat_OK
else
Main = DTSTransformStat_SkipInsert
end if
...not the most efficient solution I know but the load only runs once a month so this was an acceptable workaround.
DTS was never this fussy but I'm sure this is user error rather than an SSIS limitiion. Can someone please put me straight?
Many thanks,
Greg
Loading Flat File - Row Delimiter Not Recognized
May 2, 2007I have a text file that loads just fine with DTS 2000, but in SSIS it does not seems to recognize the row delimiter. For example, most rows in the text file have 10 columns, but some have 8 columns. For those with 8 columns, the SSIS is adding the data from next row, not padding the columns with nulls. Please help...
Thanks in advance.
Set The Flat File Column Delimiter Programatically
Jan 31, 2007hi 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!

SSIS Randomly Empties Out Column Data While Using Flat File Source
Jan 12, 2007I'm having a problem using the Flat File Source while using the underlying .Net classes to execute SSIS Packages. The issue is that for some reason when I load a flat file it Empty's out columns randomly. Its happening in the Flat File Source Task. By random I mean that most of the times all the data gets loaded but sometimes it doesnt and it empty's out column data. Interestingly enough this is random and even the emptying out of columns isnt a complete empty, its more like a 90% emtpying. Now you'll ask that is the file different everytime and the answer is NO. Its the same file everytime. If I run the same file everytime for 10 times it would empty out various columns maybe 1 of those times. This doesnt seem to be a problem while working with dtexec or the Package Executor utility. Need Help!!
View 9 Replies View RelatedNo Row Delimiter For Fixed Length Flat File Destination?
Dec 8, 2006 When I use SQL 2000 DTS Export to create a fixed length flat file, the data rows are delimited by carriage return-line. Which means that when I open the flat file in a text editor like UltraEdit or WordPad, the data rows are broken out nicely (row ends at the max row length position and new row starts at position 0).
But when I use SSIS to create the file, the whole file is displayed as one line in WordPad. The data rows don't end at the max row lenght position in ultraEdit neither. From Flat File Connection Manager's Preview page, I can see the data rows are displayed properly.
Now I wonder if the flat file destination is a true fixed length file.

Integration Services :: SSIS OLEDB Data Source - Flat File Generation
Apr 20, 2015I am working to archive some old data from a data warehouse using SQL server and SSIS. The data will be read and denormalized, then shipped out to a delimited text file.
The rowcount of the incoming data is significant, call it 10M+ rows per unit of work (one text file).
There are development advantages of using a stored proc for the data source - mainly ease of changing the denormalization logic as required. Wondering if there are performance advantages of an embeded query for the data source instead?
It was mentioned by one developer that when using a stored procedure, the output stream from the proc and subsequent SSIS steps cannot start until the full procedure processing is complete; i.e. the proc churns out its' result set in one big chunk.Â
He hinted that an embedded query does not have this same effect, but I am not sure that is accurate.
How To Specify A Special Character As A Row Delimiter In The Flat File Connection Manager?
Jan 16, 2007I have a gazillion text files, each with dozens of records. The fields are pipe-delimited, the end of each record is marked by ASCII char code 28.
example:
05|11900307|1|CO|Gervais|Neil|NG8880|F|540|0|0|0|T|0|||F|||F 05|11900307|2|AO|MARSHALL|BRAD|BM7843|F|510|60|0|0|T|0|||F|||F
The " " is the Chr(28). The line above should parse into 2 rows...
**** time passes ****
An interesting discovery - if I paste that " " directly into the row delimiter box, without quotes or brackets, I get two records!
So I found at least one answer.
Is there another?
TIA
Overriding Flat File Connection Manager Delimiter From A Script Task
Feb 28, 2008Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to override the column delimiter from a script task for a flat file connection.
Before outputing the data into a file, I have a variable which contains the delimiter to be used... but as it seems that this property cannot be changed through an expression, I assume it has to be done throught code...
However, the connectionmanager object doesnt seem to have the delimiter as an available property.
Any help would be appreciated

Jul 11, 2007
Hi
I am trying to import a flat file into a table, and from there select values from the table and insert the appropriate values into different tables
The flat file is pipe delimited. I.E
File Example:
01|Name|Surname|BenCode|Counter||||||DateTime
02|Name|Surname|BenCode|SchemeID|SchemeName|
03|Name|Surname|BenCode|ID||||Date_From|Date_To||||||||||
04|Name|Surname|BenCode|SchemeID|SchemeName||||CodeID|CodeDescription||
All these different fields are in one flat file. (It would be nice if they were in 4 seperate flat files but they're not)
I want to take the file, where the ID = 01 then the data must go into table Q1
WHERE the ID = 02 then the data must go into table Q2 and so on
When i tried to do it with SSIS, it started creating columns according to the file, but it takes the first row and counts only that rows fields and calculates the columns based on the firs record, but some of the records have more fields than that of the first row.
If i can just get this flat file imported into a single table then i can split the data up based on the table.
Any ideas will be welcome. I'm quite new to SSIS.
Kind Regards

Source Code For The Standard SSIS Components That Come With SSIS?
Jun 2, 2006Hi,
I'm finding that the standard components often just don't quite meet my
needs, but would only need some fairly minor changes to save me and my team a lot of
work (and produce more elegant solutions). So I was just wondering whether the source code was available for the standard components that come with SSIS, or if there is anyway to extend their functionality?
Or do you just have to start form scratch?

OLE DB Source To Flat File Destintation Using Fixed Width Columns - Determining Source Column Width
Feb 13, 2007Hi,
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.
Regarding The Dynamic File Change Within Flat File Source.
Mar 28, 2006Hi,
we have one requirement to run the package daily basis.
The package should run at specific time on that day.
we are using windows schedular for that.
we will have one new flatfile everyday.
Is there any process to attach this file to flat file source dynamically?
The requirement is,
The flat file should be able to read the new flatfile everyday.
we have no option change it manually, the flatfile source should have to take the file automatically at that time.
So that it can take that flatfile and load it into database table.

Flat File Source Nightmare
Sep 24, 2006I've been working 4 days non stop on this project, lost a complete weekend on it and I totally had it.
Please have a look at this "simple" question:
I have a for each loop that checks for csv files in a folder. The path of the file(s) is stored in a variable varFileName.
So far so good. But then I start with a data flow task and inside that data flow task I need to access one of those csv files at the time whenever it loops.
So my best guess is use a flat file source because that's the only task I see in the list that fits my question.
But the thing is, you set up a connection to a....yes right, a flat source connection and there you have to select a flat file.
But no, I don't want to select ONE file, I need to access them all as the loop goes through all files.
I'm sure this is something easy but I don't see it anymore.
I'm off taking a nap, need sleep
Could someone please point me to a direction?
Many thanks!

Flat File (CSV) Source Format
May 3, 2007I have a SSIS package loading a lot of CSV file, which first line is the column head. Some file are ordered differently. However, package still try to load the file use predefined column order (it seems it doesn't check the head of each file see if it matchs the predefined column order).
Any way to force the package the check each file's head? or I had to manually check it using VB.Net script?
FLAT FILE SOURCE DYNAMICALLY
Dec 1, 2007hi all
I have a table which has the paths where the source files need to be collected.
So I have a set of files which I need to collect. So I need to iterate through the result set which retrieves the paths
where the files can be found and set this dynamically to connection string of flat file connection manager.
Can anyone please let me know how to do this.
Can you be a little elaborate as to how we can do this because I am really new to SSIS.
Please help me as I am new to SSIS.
Thanks
