I am trying to import either .csv or excel files using the SSIS import/export tool in Visual Studio and/or managment studio. the data does import in but I am loosing some data in the files, most often date fields.
View 1 RepliesHi. I need to import excel file in database. i first need to do an unpivot task. the column names are dates and SSIS seems to be unable to pick up the column name as it is replaced by F2 F3 F4etc Can you advise of a solution. thanks ken
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn MS Excel, the ability exists to run a "web query." This functionis accessed via the data menu's import external data option. The webquery wizard accepts a URL address, and then is able to import thedata from that address into an excel worksheet.What I would like to do is use SSIS to import data from the same website. In other words, I now use Excel's web query functionality toimport data from a website with a url of xyz.asp. I save the excelworkbook, and then run a DTS package to import the data into SQLServer. I would like to entirely bypass Excel, instead of using it asan intermediary to bring data from the asp site into SQL Server.However, I can't figure out how to set up the connection from SQLServer. I am using SQL Server 2005, SSIS. Is there a way to haveSSIS open the asp website, extract the data and import it into a SQLServer table?For the record, this is not XML data.Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I need to import data into my SQL Server 2005 from an E-mail datasource. It means that when a mail is send to a particular address I must retrieve the mail content or the attached file (in XML) and then I must import these data in my SQL Server 2005.
I am new in SSIS and I don't know if I can perform the import task with SSIS (with a POP3 or IMAP connector) or only with SQL Server 2005 (stored procedures) or can I manage it with C# .Net.
Thanks for your help.

An excel spreadsheet has to be open on Machine B on the network to pull data from a third party tool.
I have to refresh several columns in this spreadsheet every minute with new data.
Every time there is a new data into the columns i.e. columns 7 and 10, the spreadsheet pulls data from the third party tool automatically and populates other columns i.e. columns 12-15.
Then I will have to retrieve the new data from the spreadsheet into sql server 2005.
So first I wrote a query to use to populate the spreadsheet each time with the result using Import Wizard.
It gives an error: 0xc0202009
And I am not sure if my approach for this project is correct?
What do you think?
Thanks

Hi msdn forum members,
I need to import data from another server using Express edition every minute.
So I ran the import wizard, and I saved the packaged on the hard drive.
Then when I try to make a new job and new schedule for scheduling, I can't seem to find SQL server integration service option for the Type.
does anybody have any idea why I can't see SSIS there or had the same problem??
Or is there another way of importing data every minuite other than this?
BTW my server is 2005 standard edition.
Thanks in advance,
Mike Kim
I created a package using the import utility and have it opened in Business Intelligence Development Studio. Can someone explain to me how I can run this import from here?
Thanks

I'm getting an error message (see below ) using the SSIS Import and Export Wizard to read in IBM DB2 databases on a XP 64 machine. I'm trying to import the DB2 (8.2.8) tables from IBM/AIX to SQL Server 2005. I have the IBM Client V8 with Fixpak 14 installed on the computer.
Using IBM OLE DB Provider for DB2 ( testing connection is fine ) for Data Source
Using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server for Destination to SQL 2005 database (also tried SQL native Client )
During the next screen "Copy data from one or more tables or views" I get the following error and no tables show up.
CLI0102E Invalid Conversion. SQLSTATE=07006
Additional Information
CLI0102E Invalid Conversion. SQLSTATE=07006 ( IBM OLE DB Provider for DB2)
I've checked on BLOBs and CLOBs in the tables on the DB2 side and none of the tables I have access to have them (but there are tables with BLOBs and CLOBs in them). I haven't checked on decimal conversion but I've seen DB2 Decimal (30,15) columns in some tables.
If someone could tell me the steps and tables that the Wizard uses to build the table list from, I'll go into DB2 Command Center and run a few queries.
I've also tried the MS OLE DB for DB2 Provider but I get an error message on the authentication method not being supported.
Thanks

Hello All
First time setting up A SSIS
Trying to import a excel that creates a new table called lockbox.
Does not import any records from Columns-Contract Id, Owner ID,
that have a null value.
Then in the Site Id -that is a number value- change to a text value
and update it to it text value.
for example: Site Id Column
2 = Ell
3 = CSI
12 = Ell2
Can someone get me started in the right direction?
Thanks for your time and help

I have Sql Server 2005 Developer Edition and Sql Server Management Studio.I'm trying to import data but there are no options available under "Projects" in SSMS.Do I need to download an update or anything to use this functionality?
Thanks
have tried to import data from a big (257Mb, I has about 1.000.000) flat file into a table, inside SSIS. The process doesn’t work correctly. It stops in the same register (about 179.000). I have reviewed the process and have opened the file making it shorter (about 150.000 lines, including the line that before seems to break the process), and it works. Making the file longer it breaks the process again.
The error showed by the program:

PD: I mean that it´s not a date format problem (I have reviewed some post talking about it)
I am trying to import a flat file into SQL Server 2005 using SSIS. I have never used it before and I am getting confused by the error I am receiving.
I have a link to a flat file, that gets sent through a Derived Column flow where dates in YYYYMMDD are changed to MM/DD/YYYY format. Then the string MM/DD/YYYY is converted to a date in a Data Conversion flow. And finally the data is put into a SQL Server table (currently with no rows).
The problem I am having is with a text field with the email address in it. The error I am getting is:
[Import Allstate Auto Club [1]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "email_source" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
The problem is I can't see where in the flow the problem is. The field length is 20 wherever I look and the codepage is 1252 wherever I look. Does anyone have an insight? Keep in mind, I have never used SSIS before and I consider myself an amateur with SQL Server. It could easily be a data type conflict or something easy. Any help will be appreciated.
Guys,
I am new to SQL Server 2005. I have installed Developer edition. I want to transfer data through DTS which is now SSIS - Sql Server Integration Service I believe.
One question though how do I access SSIS, I am doing normal imports and exports using the wizards. Is there any other interface to access the SSIS??
Please let me know
Thanks
Hi all,New to SQL Server - trying to create an SSIS package that will look forand import a series of Visual Foxpro tables (.DBFs) when they appear ina folder.The tables are/can be all different fields, field widths, etc. Withquite a bit of overlap though.The end result should be table "ABC.DBF" is pulled into SQL Server astable "ABC"Using: SQL Server 2005 Enterprise, SSIS, *latest* version of VFPOLEDBdownloaded from MSI have set up a package and tested it with several different tables andit works great - but I have to redo the data source and destinationeach time...I need to get this to be a somewhat automated process, pulling in all..DBFs no matter what they contain.Can I do this with SSIS alone (and variable substitution) or do I needto write a bunch of code...Thanks very much for your time and thoughts...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a fixed width flat file I'm trying to insert into an SQL 2005 table using SSIS -- it's a recurring task. One of the columns in the flat file has to go to a column of type Numeric. No matter what I try : a data conversion, defining the field as DT_NUMERIC in the connection,... I always get "The conversion returned status value 2 and status text :The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data". It is driving me bonkers, up to the point that I find myself wishing for the 'good old' DTS days of SQL 2000. And I dread to think what will happen when I try to port some serious, much more complex DTS packages on my SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
The data in question represents longitudes and latitudes so quite often there is a leading white space in the data : ex. : " 95.15". Surely that cannot be the cause ?
I've spent hours doing the RTFM-thing and searching the newsgroups, fora...you name it. Apart from ending up running in circles in the MS documentation, the only thing I've really learned so far is that I'm aparently not the only one driven to dispair by the new SSIS thing.
I can think of a number of ways to hack my way around this thing, but that's not the kind of 'progress' I had in mind when I started the move to SQL 2005.
Intelligent suggestions would be most welcome.

Hello everybody,
I'd like to import a big table (about 13 millions rows) from oracle to sql server 2005.
2 ways are possible: SiSS and Import Wizard.
I'd prefere to use SSiS, but I'm unable to pass data from oracle because, for some strange reason, debugging the package it hangs on the origin block (painting it red) altought another identical package wit another table works perfectly (and that's another strange question...). Also, SiSS forces me to create a convert block to cast from unicode to ansi
Using Import Wizard in sql2005 instead, the package works perfectly and, importing it in SiSS, it also don't contains the convert block...
what's the reason of all that?
thanks in advance
I want to start the SSIS wizard to import data from a flat file, but I right click the DB > select Task and the Import and Export options are not there. Is there something I have to enable before the options show up
Thanks
Hello All,
Is there a way to completely export an SSIS package (the package, the configuration and the SQL Agent settings).
And a way to import it into another computer running SSIS.
If yes, then can this be done by means of a script?

Abhishek.
I am building a ssis package that imports multiple xml files containing data into the tables using one xsd file. I am using xml source task for this. I can only import one file as the primary key constraint gets violated.
I have four tables with four primary keys. The xml file does not have the primary key column data. So every time these columns get populated as 1, 2, 3, 4.
I am preety new to xml, so was wondering if anyone can help?
Why doesn't the xml file have primary key column data?
Hi,
I am making a SSIS package that imports data from a application using a custom ODBC driver. The field in the application is set to be a "longvarchar" type field and can be from 2 characters to 2MB of data.
I've created a ODBC data connection in the SSIS package and use a "DataReader Source" to read the data I need. The sql statement is very simple
Select log from tablename
When I try to run the SSIS package with that statement it just goes to yellow on the DataReader Source and stops. It stays like that until I stop it. If I select other fields except for that field it works fine. Also I've been able to get it to succeed getting the log field if I select a log record that's not too big. The largest one I've been able to get is 800 characters, but I got one with 2500 characters that just stops on yellow.
In the Progress log the last line says:
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: Execute phase is beginning.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?
I have encountered what I consider to be a significant bug when importing Excel spreadsheets using SSIS.
If in the first data row a particular column does not contain a value (i.e. it is null) then SSIS assumes that every row has a null value in that column. This disfunctional beahaviour has cost me hours and hours of wasted time loading and debugging data.
Hopefully someone from the appropriate area within Microsoft will read this post and get this bug fixed.
I followed the steps outlined in
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337084.aspx
and was successful at importing ".dbf" files from a dBase 7.0 folder.
However, this import was quite slow: approx. 2000 rows per second. Some of the tables I must import have over 8,000,000 rows, which would then take 4,000 seconds, or over one hour. This import rate seems unaffected by whether or not I put a "Copy Column" Data Flow Transformation task between the "OLE DB Source" and "OLE DB Destination" objects.
In SQL Server 2000 it was much faster to import such large tables. The 8 million row table takes only 14 minutes (800 seconds) with SQL Server 2000 -- giving a transfer rate approx. 5 times as fast.
Is there any way to speed up this process in SQL Server 2005? (In SQL Server 2000 there was a "Use fast load" option on the "Options" tab of the "Transform Data Task Properties." I have not yet found any similar option for SQL Server 2005.)
My receiving database is using the "Simple" model, so there is no need to create transaction entries for loading these large tables. There are also no indexes on these tables: the data are being loaded into new tables created in SSIS.
Thanks for your help with this issue.
I’m trying to import data from CSV to SQL Server 2012 and I’m using SSIS 2012.
CSV file data:
Field1,Field2
“123”,”abc “xyz” wxy”
The data should read into the database as
Field1 Field2
abcabc “xyz” wxy
The problem is in ”abc “xyz” wxy”
if I add another set of double quotes inside the field double quotes it will work.
”abc ““xyz”” wxy”
Anyway I can fix this without writing a text parser?
I am importing xml multiple times a day from a vendor. However when SSIS created the ID's for nested XML data it is not unique. So importing the first time and I get 3-4 records it looks fine. However subsequent imports all use the same ID's so it isn't unique, how do I go about changing this as I cant find anything about it.
