I've been working on a project to ensure that accross our entire data warehouse everything is at the same accuracy level as far as time - migrating everything to use the full hh:mis.mmm. Some places were using hh:mis:mmm (colon instead of decimal point) and many places not using milliseconds.
The SQL server portion went essentially without issue - however SSIS is not cooperating. For example I have data I am importing from a file that is in format: hh:mis (no milliseconds) that I need to compare to data from SQL (now containing full milliseconds) - matching on time ranges. Previously this was done by converting both to the "database time" datatype in SSIS and comparing. Now when converting the cTime to database time SSIS fails and complains "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data".
I don't want to lop off the milliseconds becuase that could create rounding errors.
I don't like it but the only option I can think of is keeping everything in string and comparing the strings... then I run into the issue of making sure to convert all sources of data into the exact same hh:mis:mmm format in text.
Is there an easier way? I know some people use "milliseconds since midnight" and so forth but that would require major reworking of the data warehouse and many packages.
Hi, i am trying to add milliseconds to a time. For example if i have a time of 01:01:05:000 and i want to add 0.297 milliseconds to it i use the following simplified query
SELECT CONVERT(nvarchar(20), DATEADD(ms, 0.297, '00:01:05:000'), 14) AS Expr1
However instead of getting 01:01:05:0.297 i get 01:01:05:000. Can somebody please tell me what i am doing wrong.

I need to set a variable to datetime and time to exact milliseconds in SQL server in stored procedure.
Example: set MyUniqueNumber = 20071101190708733 ie. MyUniqueNumber contains yyyymmddhhminsecms
Please help, i tried the following: 1. SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP; ////// shows up with - & : , I want single string as in above example.2. select cast(datepart(YYYY,getdate()) as varchar(4))+cast(datepart(mm,getdate()) as char(2))+convert(varchar(2),datepart(dd,getdate()),101 )+cast(datepart(hh,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(mi,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(ss,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(ms,getdate()) as char(4))
This one doesnot display day correctly, it should show 01 but shows 1
(dt_dbtimestamp)(colum_name,1, 23) when I include the period and three digits for milliseconds the package fails if I leave it out it is successfull. I need to include milliseconds for my datawarehouse project. I tried many different ways and always with failure 01/23/2007 12:23:15.234 is the date(example) derived: (dt_dbtimestamp)(column_name,1,23) fails 01/23/2007 12:23:15.234 is the date(example) derived: (dt_dbtimestamp)(column_name,1,19) succeeds
I am trying to load previous days data at 3 am via a SSIS job.
The Date variable is initiated as DATEADD("dd",-1, GETDATE()) in the for loop.
Now, as this job runs at 3 am, and I set the variable as GETDATE() - 1, it excluded the data from 12 am to 3 am in the resultset as Date is set as YYYY-MM-DD 03:00:00:000 I need this to be set as YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00:000
I am looking at building multiple SSIS packages. There will be some similarities. Flexibility is of highest importance. The main packages will need to connect to SQL Server1 as a source and SQL Server2 as a destination to transfer over dimenion data from multiple databases. (other SSIS packages may need to use SQL Server2 as a source and SQL Server1 as a destination)
For a single dimension table containing column dim_id on the target server (SQLServer2). I need to pass the results of the following SQL and insert into SQLServer2.database.dim_table
select dim.id from SQLServer1.database08.dim_table union select dim.id from SQLServer1.database07.dim_table union select dim.id from SQLServer1.database06.dim_table
Now next year the names of the databases on SQLServer1 will be database09,database08,database07!
Now so far my best thought is creating views in my destination SQL Server. So I need some way of dropping and recreating the views. Previously in DTS I would expect to see SQL Server connection that I could use as source and destination. Now I can see SQL Server destination but not source? Also How do I just use SSIS to run some SQL. i.e execute a stored procedure, drop and creat views?
Many thanks, Ells p.s Flexibility is the key, in the last three months all the ip and server names have changed more than once so need to be as flexible as possible.
why the results I receiving for Seconds is different? I get the same MS results.

hi ppls.. we have sql server 2000 EM. we received daily xml files and we insert into our database.there is one column Date_T having data type datetime.till date we recieved this records from xml as '03/23/2004 12:23:34:956' but due to some duplicate isssue we now want to modified this column to recieve as milliseconds like '03/23/2004 12:23:34:956232' now my point is wheather sql server handle this kind of milliseconds..please help me out as early as possible..
I have the difference between two dates in milliseconds. I want to convert this difference to the format hh:mm:ss.mmm, without the date. So, if the difference is bigger then one day, I would like to show it like this, for example: 36:25:14.047
I'm trying to extract some data from a table in oracle. The oracle table stores date and time seperately in 2 different columns. I need to merge these two columns and import to sql server database.
I'm struggling with this for a quite a while and I'm not able to get it working.
I tried the oracle query something like this,
SELECT (TO_CHAR(ASOFDATE,'YYYYMMDD')||' '||TO_CHAR(ASOFTIME,'HH24:MM : SS')||':000') AS ASOFDATE
FROM TBLA
this gives me an output of 20070511 23:06:30:000
the space in MM : SS is intentional here, since without that space it appread as smiley
I'm trying to map this to datetime field in sql server 2005. It keeps failing with this error
The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data
I'm struck with error for hours now. Any pointers would be helpful.
Hi, I tried entering this value "8/24/2006 1:35:00.127 PM" with 127 as the milliseconds in a datetime field, but encountered error saying inconsistent datatype ... Anyone knows how to store datetime value with milliseconds in the SQL database? Thanks
Hello all.I am attempting to insert a row into a table with a datetime column:When the insert statement contains a value for the millisecond portionof the data time column: ie. {ts '2003-11-05 12:02:43:2960'}I get 'Syntax error converting datetime from string'When I insert a value like: {ts '2003-11-05 12:02:43'}with no millisecond value it succeeds.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks
I'm trying to save a datetime value from vb.net to a sql server.I'm using this code: Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss") After I save this value to Database.But on sql server management studio , I see that the field's value still has the milliseconds .
I want to execute a paramterized ADO insert command into a SQL Server DATETIME column without losing the milliseconds. I can accomplish this without parameters, but that isn't what I want. Any suggestions?
It is OK that DATETIME only has a resolution of 3.33 milliseconds.
I am writing a report that Queries a SQL DB using 'SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio'. I have a field in the DB called duration and it is in milliseconds. I am trying to find an easy way to convert the format from Milliseconds to HH:MM:SS.Nearest I can get is the following for the field:
The output is in HH:MM. One issue with this is if the MM is say :03, it prints as :3. I lose the leading 0 so 9:03 (9hrs and 3 minutes) prints as 9:3. Where as 9:30 (9 hrs and 30 minutes) prints as 9:30 as it should.
I The requirement is to unload all columns data into csv file using bcp with pipe delimiter, but the condition is to remove milliseconds part of a datetime column.
Ex: 2014-02-19 17:12:14.967 remove .967 from data while unloading into csv.
When you view the Extended Events "Watch Live Data" is the duration in milliseconds or microseconds? I'm assuming it's milliseconds, but if you look at the timestamp difference from start to complete it doesn't add up to the duration amount? It looks like it's just the difference between the timestamps?
I'm running into a constant issue of SQL Server modifying themillisecond part of a timestamp insert from another application. Theapplication inserts timestamp which includes a millisecond portion as astring (varchar). But when an SQL Server moves this data to anothertable (for reporting), the string is inserted in a datetime field, themillisecond field invariably changes by 1-2 milliseconds for everysingle data point inserted. Given the time critical nature of this data(to a millisecond), its almost impossible to avoid this other than toleave the data as string type. But this drives the analytical reportingfolks wild as report queries based on time criteria are getting messedup. Any ideas how to force SQL Server not to mess around with themillisecond value? Does this problem exist with SQL Server 2005 as well?
If my SSIS runs every day, how can I "know" that I'm running it for the first time?
I need an SQL Select1 statement to execute the first day that my flow starts (to get all the old data) and after that SQL Select2 statement should always execute (to get the latest data).
Hello all, I have a SSIS package that is importing data from a DB2 database. I am using SSRS (BIDS/VS2005). I want to be able to access the last time a particular package ran in my report, like in the footer of the page. I have found the globals.executiontime for grabbing the time the report was ran.
I want to do the same thing, except I want to call the date/time the last import was made to the database. Is there some easy way to grab that from SSIS, or will I need to maybe reference the DB creation time? (The database is dropped and recreated (for now anyway) in the SSIS package.)
I have created a SSIS job using the same SQL query as my old DTS job, which reads data from the source InterSystems Cache database and populates my SQL Server 2005 database tables. There are no data manipulation techniques being applied, just a straight copy. I am receiving the error message below. Can someone help me troubleshoot this issue?
Hi all. We recently migrated to SQL Server '05 from 2000 and I'm trying to learn SSIS by crash course.
I just wrote an SSIS for one of our nightly processes in Studio 2005. It built with no errors, and the solution and resulting package are saved on the server housing SQL Server.
I ran the package in debug and it completed 100% with no errors. However, when I scheduled the package in SQL Server, it starts and fails.
Now, I'm very new to SQL '05 and I'm trying to figure out how to log the SSIS jobs, but is there any way to find out why the scheduled packages fail?
I'm desperately needing help on this, and any help would be greatly appreciated!
everytime i used to open the package has a sql server configuration file saved and also has loggin enabled, with password for sensitive data storage given, it shows some errors and all the time the errors are with the created connection.
yes, i have given the right password at the time of opening it.
I have a DTS in SQL Server 2000, Where I am importing some data from a remote server (SQL 2000) to local server (SQL 2000).And this is working fine. it is taking max of 1 min to execute the package.
Now I have created the same DTS in sql server 2005 (SSIS) where the source server is sql server 2000 and the destination server is 2005.and I have created the ssis in that server. The same logic which i have created in sql 2000. But here it is taking almost 10 min to execute the package.
Where as the same in sql server 2000 taking max of 1 min. Why this happening.. Is there any configuration to execute the SSIS package.?
I have a flat file that contains detail in each record as indicated below:
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A(1..10), ATTRIB_B(1..10), ATTRIB_C(1..10), etc.
The index of the attribute relates it to other attributes with the same index. It needs to look like this in the detail table:
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A1, ATTRIB_B1, ATTRIB_C1
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A2, ATTRIB_B2, ATTRIB_C2
I need to pivot these attributes into a detail table that relates back to the header information. Because of the number of these, I don't want to use the UNPIVOT Task because there are so many. I was hoping to move the complexity to a Script Component where I could read one line and transform it to a normalized state.
