Script Component Task: Function That Returns Last Word In A String
Sep 7, 2006
I have a field called CustomerName Varchar 100 and I wish to write a function that can do the following in a script component task
create a function called CleanString (ByVal CustomerName as String) As String
CleanString Returns the last word of a Customer name if the CustomerName field contains more than one word or if the CustomerName field does not contain Corp or Ltd
ie parse 'Mr John Tools' and the function returns 'Tools'
ie parse 'TechnicalBooks' and the function returns 'TechnicalBooks'
ie parse 'Microsoft Corp' return 'Microsoft Corp'
ie parse 'Digidesign Ltd' return 'Digidesign Ltd'
Any idea of a regular expression or existing piece of existing code I can have
thanks in advance

In a Data Flow, I have the necessity to use a SSIS variable of type €œObject€? inside Script Component and assign to it the content of 'n' variables of string type.
On exiting from the script the variable of type object should contain something like in the following lines:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦.
€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦.
On exiting from the data flow I will use the variable of type Object in a Script Task, by reading each element in a cyclic fashion.
Is there anyone who have experienced something like this? Could anyone provide any example of that?
Thanks in advance!

Hi All,
Please help, it is urgent
I am having a colume as image datatype, in which candidates resume is stored in binary format.
I have to search for particular words for eg. "ASP.Net, 2 Years" into that column
I have converted that column as varchar and then searching above two words(after spliting them by comma) into that string using CHARINDEX
DECLARE @i int, @j int
SET @i = select MIN(ResumeId) from table_name
SET @j = select MAX(ResumeId) from table_name
WHILE (@i <= @j)
BEGIN
DECLARE @Resume varchar(max)
SET @Resume = CAST((select Resume from table_name where ResumeId=100) as varbinary(max))
--code to search the particular word from @Resume
END
It is working fine, but it is very slow, taking 2+ minutes to scan 15000 records
How can I make it faster or is there any other way to search?
Thanks in advance

I have following select-statement:
select [date], [close], AVG([close]) over (order by [date] rows between 2 preceding and current row ) as [ma]
from dax2
My Problem is that the first 2 rows in column [ma] are not correct. They Show a value since it is not a 3 days average. In the first row in column [ma]is the same value as in [Close]. In the second row in column [ma] is the average value of the first and second value of column [Close].
How can i achieve that this "erroneous" values are not inserted or rather are shown as null.

Hello All,
I have a situation where after creating roles and addding users to the roles then when i call Is_Member('MyRole') on my development box it tells me the user is a member of the Role,
But when i detach the database and deploy on a production server and call Is_Member('MyRole') it tells me that the user is not a member of the Role....
I went on to call the system stored procedures, sp_helprolemember to actualy determine if the user is in the 'MyRole' role and the procedure returned a list which i confirmed that the user actually exists in that role..
So am pretty confused when i call Is_Member('MyRole') and it gives me 0 meaning the user is not in the role....
Plss i need help on this thanks a million

Dear all hi,
I would like to create a function that will return to me the width of the column of the table without giving as a parameter the table name. I need it, as I want to exceed my data in this column to the column length. I want to fill the column data with trailing blanks until I reach the column width. The function len returns the length of the data in the column.
I know that If I have the table name I can find the column width through the system tables. I don€™t want this.
Sincerely,
Hellen

Hey all, i'm making the pages meta keywords on my site dynamic, and i was wondering is there is a string, for example "Dell 17" Monitor Brand New", that would split it into each word for the meta keywords. example "Dell, 17", Monitor, Brand, New" (and possibly to not put a comma on the last word?)

To create a strike file for a text file output, I piped the output of a query throught a mulitcast. One output is the actual flat file, the other output is the strike file. The next task for the strike output is an aggregate count and sum functions. If the original query returns no records, the count shows zero, but the sum shows NULL. Further down the process I have to pad out the values with zero's, but that NULL is causing problems. How do I convert the Null to either an empty string, or a value of zero?
Thanks

I am required to find or check that a specific word exists in string or not.
Suppose I have to find the word 'st' than I need the result true if and only if the following occurrences are there.
1. 'St is valid;' Â Â -> true
2. 'DOB is valid;ST is invalid;' Â Â -> true
3. 'DOB is valid; ST is invalid;'   -> true
4. 'DOB is valid;invalid ST;'   -> true
5. 'DOB is valid; invalid ST;'   -> true
6. 'DOB is valid; invalid STate;'Â Â Â -> false
Means the exact ST should be search. It is  not free text search.
T-SQL is needed to be used in select statement with case using PATINDEX, RegEx or any suitable t-sql command.

From what I've seen, the CheckSum_Agg function appears to returns 0 for even number of repeated values. If so, then what is the practical use of this function for implementing an aggregate checksum across a set of values?
For example, the following work as expected; it returns a non-zero checksum across (1) value or across (2) unequal values.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-7077
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
1035
However, the function appears to returns 0 for an even number of repeated values.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
It's not specific to -7077, for example:
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
What's curious is that (3) repeated equal values will return a checksum > 0.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-997777
But a set of (4) repeated equal values will return 0 again.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
Finally, a set of (2) uneuqal values repeated twice will return 0 again.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (8112), (-997777), (8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0

Any UDF that accepts a Month and Year and returns Start Date and End Date.
For example @Month = 01 and @Year = 2014 would return a StartDate of 2014-01-01 and an EndDate of 2014-01-31.

Hi,
I got this error report "The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word starting at index 0." at this line of code in BOLD.
For some reasons the datetime format in the database has the (US datetime format - 05/02/2008 06:40 instead of United Kingdom (UK date time format - 02/05/2008 06:40), as I had planned. I have tried to reformat the database and VB date format and all to no success.Could this be the root of my problems?
Code Snippet
Public Class Form1
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If con.State = ConnectionState.Open Then con.Close()

Dim sdr As SqlDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader
While sdr.HasRows = True
Dim newAlert As New Alert(Reminder_data_reader("REM_NOTE").ToString(), DateTime.Parse(Reminder_data_reader("REM_DATE").ToString()))

In sql server 2000 - our QA pointed out that his testing for empty strings returned 200 + rows but that when he clicked in the field there were obviously a space there. This issue came up because of the script I created to replace and earlier one that queried on empty strings instead of datalength and the earlier script always reported that it had updated x number of rows regardless of how many times it was run on the same database.
QA query based on the earlier script:
Select * from StringTable
WHERE (LongString = '' OR LongString IS NULL)
My script:
The fields are nvarchars in the newer database but older version of the database had varchars. I had created a script to replace empty strings as follows:
-- if LongString column is varchar - run varchar update else nvarchar update
If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'LongString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin
-- update varchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 1) OR LongString IS NULL)
END
Else Begin
-- update nvarchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 2) OR LongString IS NULL)
END
If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'ShortString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin
UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 1) OR ShortString IS NULL)
END
Else Begin
-- update nvarchar ShortString
UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 2) OR ShortString IS NULL)
END
My method for checking for datalength appears to work correctly why doesn't the QA script? I thought it might have to do with the nvarchar used in the table but I changed the column to a varchar and still has the same issue.
Thanks

We run std 2008 r2. I haven't looked at my friend's function closely yet bur he showed me that when he selects from the function with one column and the same where clause he uses on same func with select *, he gets no data under the column he requested.Â
But when he selects * he gets a single row.
I took a peek and see a bunch of left joins followed by a bunch of outer applies in his func. I suppose (thinking out load) if anything random like the order of rows returned or sql decisions on how query runs can affect his function, that might explain it. Â

I've written sql code which takes a date and finds the Last Day of the Month one year ago. For example, it takes the date '2015-04-17' and returns the date '2014-04-30'. The code works fine in a query. Now I'm trying to turn this into a function. However, when I try to create the function I get the error:
Operand type clash: date is incompatible with int
Why is this error being returned?
Here is my function:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.zEOM_LY_D(@Input Date)
      RETURNS date
AS
BEGIN;
 DECLARE @Result date;
 SET @Result = convert(DATE, DATEADD(s,-1,DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(m,0,dateadd(m, -11, @Input)+1),0)),101)
   RETURN @Result;
END;

I've been using SSIS for a few months now, and am comfortable with most of the tools, except for the script task and script component. I don't remember any VB code from college - is that the best place to start in order to fully understand how to code the script task and component? I need to understand the situations where/when I would use scripting, why, etc. I've used a few examples on the internet to do some simple tasks, but need to understand the code I'm implementing. Any direction would be much appreciated.

Dear Colleagues,
I'm trying to develop a custom Data Flow Transformization component in SSIS.
I compiled it without errors, installed it in the GAC and in the Pipeline Components-folder however I always get the following message when I'm trying to drag the component onto the designer surface:
The component could not be added to the Data Flow task.
Please verify that this component is properly installed.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The data flow object "RisikoKennzahlenKomponenten.MarktwertTransformation,
RisikoKennzahlenKomponenten, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=cfa8722b8086ac2d" is not installed correctly on this computer.
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design)
Program Location:

Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design.DesignUtils.GetNewPipelineComponentObjectName(IDTSComponentMetaDataCollection90
parentCollection, String clsid, IDTSComponentMetaData90 componentMetadata,
PipelineComponentInfo& pipelineComponentInfo)
at
Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design.PipelineTaskDesigner.AddNewComponent(String clsid, Boolean throwOnError)
This happens with EVERY custom component on my computer. The same components work fine on other machines.
Does anyone have an idea?
Regards
