Simple DB ? , Getting A Value And Setting As A Variable.
May 12, 2008
Hi, folks. As part of a larger bunch of code, I am trying to validate some user form input against a database...I've been picking apart code samples and have the following (currently not yet working) code to show for it. I find tons of complex examples out there RE the data controls, and I have those working. But I can't find any examples of just pulling a single record from a DB, sticking it in a variable, and then checking against that variable to get a boolean response. Anyway, here is the code. I am trying to check that a password field filled by the user matches the value located in the DB. I am not married to this code; if someone suggests a better way to do it rather than using a custom validator control, that's fine too:BEGIN CODE SNIP
void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Page.Validate();
SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = "SELECT Password FROM aspnet_Membership WHERE aspnet_Membership.Email='" + emailID.Text + "'";
}
private void CustomValidator1_ServerValidate(object source, System.Web.UI.WebControls.ServerValidateEventArgs args)
{
//between this and the next comment is where I have to get the DB Password field value for the current record
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("SELECT Password FROM aspnet_Membership WHERE aspnet_Membership.Email='" + emailID.Text + "'");
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
sqlConnection.Open();
reader=command.ExecuteReader();
string currentPasswordDb = reader.IsDBNull(reader.GetString("Password"))? null: reader["Password"].ToString();
args.IsValid = false; // Assume False
{
// Compare db entry against user's entry
if (currentPasswordDb == currentPassword.Text)
{
args.IsValid = true;
}
}
} END CODE SNIP
The code above give me the following at runtime:
Line 14: SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("SELECT Password FROM aspnet_Membership WHERE aspnet_Membership.Email='" + emailID.Text + "'");
Line 15: command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
Line 16: sqlConnection.Open();
Line 17: reader=command.ExecuteReader();Line 18: string currentPasswordDb = reader.IsDBNull(reader.GetString("Password"))? null: reader["Password"].ToString();Although I'm sure it won't be the last. I'm a former ASP classic developer, moving to c# and .Net. Any ideas?
ok, I am on Day 2 of being brain dead.I have a database with a table with 2 varchar(25) columns I have a btton click event that gets the value of the userName, and a text box.I NEED to insert a new row in a sql database, with the 2 variables.Ive used a sqldatasource object, and tried to midify the insert parameters, tried to set it at the button click event, and NOTHING is working. Anyone have a good source for sql 101/ASP.Net/Braindead where I can find this out, or better yet, give me an example. this is what I got <%@ Page Language="C#" %><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><script runat="server"> protected void runit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { //SqlDataSource ID = "InsertExtraInfo".Insert(); //SqlDataSource1.Insert(); } protected void Button1_Click1(object sender, EventArgs e) { SqlDataSource newsql; newsql.InsertParameters.Add("@name", "Dan"); newsql.InsertParameters.Add("@color", "rose"); String t_c = "purple"; string tempname = Page.User.Identity.Name; Label1.Text = tempname; Label2.Text = t_c; newsql.Insert(); }</script><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" ><head runat="server"> <title>mini update</title></head><body> <form id="form1" runat="server"> name<asp:TextBox ID="name" runat="server" OnTextChanged="TextBox2_TextChanged"></asp:TextBox><br /> color <asp:TextBox ID="color" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br /> <br /> <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click1" Text="Button" /> <br /> set lable =><asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label" Width="135px" Visible="False"></asp:Label><br /> Lable 2 => <asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label><br /> Usernmae=><asp:LoginName ID="LoginName1" runat="server" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConflictDetection="CompareAllValues" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:newstring %>" DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [favcolor] WHERE [name] = @original_name AND [color] = @original_color" InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [favcolor] ([name], [color]) VALUES (@name, @color)" OldValuesParameterFormatString="original_{0}" SelectCommand="SELECT [name], [color] FROM [favcolor]" UpdateCommand="UPDATE [favcolor] SET [color] = @color WHERE [name] = @original_name AND [color] = @original_color"> <DeleteParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="original_name" Type="String" /> <asp:Parameter Name="original_color" Type="String" /> </DeleteParameters> <UpdateParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="color" Type="String" /> <asp:Parameter Name="original_name" Type="String" /> <asp:Parameter Name="original_color" Type="String" /> </UpdateParameters> <InsertParameters> <asp:InsertParameter("@name", "Dan", Type="String" /> <asp:InsertParameter("@color", "rose") Type="String"/> </InsertParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource> <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="name" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"> <Columns> <asp:CommandField ShowDeleteButton="True" ShowEditButton="True" ShowSelectButton="True" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="color" HeaderText="color" SortExpression="color" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="name" HeaderText="name" ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="name" /> </Columns> </asp:GridView> </form></body></html>
Hi all, I am trying to do a very basic ALTER Command and am trying to change its DEFAULT value. Code below is what I currently have:
Code Snippet
ALTER TABLE Table_1
ALTER COLUMN TEST VARCHAR(1000) NULL DEFAULT 2
Thanks, Onam.
*UPDATE* I found this code but are there alternative methods? Additionally, if I was to update its DEFAULT value again how would I go about doing that? Do I first have to remove the CONSTRAINT and then run the command?
Code Snippet
ALTER TABLE Table_1 ADD CONSTRAINT DF_Albumns_Comment DEFAULT 2 FOR TEST
Hi, I have this query basically im trying to set the @db to the current database depending on the quarter. This will be used in a package to change the database that the package will use.
DECLARE @db nVarchar(4000) SET @db = N'TESTDB' + RIGHT(DATEPART(yy, GETDATE()), 2) + '_' + CASE WHEN DATEPART(m, GETDATE()) IN ('11', '12', '1') THEN 'Q1' ELSE CASE WHEN DATEPART(m, GETDATE()) IN ('2', '3', '4') THEN 'Q2' ELSE CASE WHEN DATEPART(m, GETDATE()) IN ('5', '6', '7') THEN 'Q3' ELSE CASE WHEN DATEPART(m, GETDATE()) IN ('8', '9', '10') THEN 'Q4' END END END END EXECUTE sp_executesql @db, N'@level tinyint', @level = 35
I get the error Incorrect Syntax near 'TESTDB04_Q3'.
I am trying to set the variables value through Execute SQL task and create directory through the FileSystemTask by setting the user variable as source. The User variable has the Directory path to create the directory, but when i set the source as the user variable it complains that its value is empty.
Execute SQL TAsk happens to work correctly when i check the watch window the user variable is set correctly . but value is not setting in the SSIS/Variable window Value.
What is wrong an what method should i use to set the variables value to create directory.
I want to execute a BAT file using Execute Process task, where I want to select the file path (directory) dynamically using a variable whose value is set at runtime.
In simple terms I want to send a value to the "Executable" property dynamically
The For Loop will execute a stored procedure that passes a variable each time it loops. I need to set this variable, @FiscalWeek, equal to the variable @Counter. So the first time it loops, the counter will be 1, and the Fiscal Year would be set to 1. The next time it would be two, and so forth. Can I do this in the Expressions section of the For Loop? If so, what would the property be?
I want to be able to have a single select statment:
SELECT TOP 1 Call.JobNum, Call.CallID, Call.Company, Call.LastCallTime FROM ClientJob INNER JOIN Client ON ClientJob.ClientID = Client.ClientID INNER JOIN Call INNER JOIN Login ON Call.JobNum = Login.JobNum ON ClientJob.JobNum = Login.JobNum WHERE (Login.LoginID = 3) AND (Call.Status = 0) AND (DATEDIFF(hh, Call.LastCallTime, getdate()) > 10) ORDER BY Call.CallID
but with this select statment I also want to set a variable:
declare @variable int
SELECT TOP 1 Call.JobNum, @variable = Call.CallID, Call.Company, Call.LastCallTime FROM ClientJob INNER JOIN Client ON ClientJob.ClientID = Client.ClientID INNER JOIN Call INNER JOIN Login ON Call.JobNum = Login.JobNum ON ClientJob.JobNum = Login.JobNum WHERE (Login.LoginID = 3) AND (Call.Status = 0) AND (DATEDIFF(hh, Call.LastCallTime, getdate()) > 10) ORDER BY Call.CallID
Now SQL Server does not like this, can not set a variable in a multiple select statment. I NEED to do this all in one step if possible. Any suggestions?
declare @ret varchar(50) DECLARE @X SQL_VARIANT set @X=10 SET @ret=select SQL_VARIANT_PROPERTY(@X,'BaseType')
Just trying to assign the SQL_VARIANT_PROPERTY return value to @ret and it issues an error: Implicit conversion from data type sql_variant to varchar is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
But I don't want to convert I just want to assign the result to the variable.
what's confusding is that you can do this: if(select SQL_VARIANT_PROPERTY(@X,'BaseType'))='int'
I am having the wrost trouble with this today for some dumb reason... Please don't suggest any alternates; this is just a quick example, full code is more elaberate.
Hi,I am having problems setting the value of a variable in a SQL Stringthat I have to create dynamically in my procedure. The code that Icurrently have is as follows:set @sqlStatement='Set @compare_string=' + '(Select ' +@group_column_list_mod + ' from ' + @Tbl_Name + '_Sorted' + ' whereIdentity_Column=' + ltrim(rtrim(str(@loop_counter))) + ')'exec(@sqlStatement)The error message that I get is as follows:Must declare the variable '@compare_string'.Here @compare_string has already been declared in the procedure and Idon't have a problem using the variable anywhere else but this SQLStatement (when called using the EXEC function).I am not sure why SQL Server can't see the variable declared when usedin a string in conjunction with EXEC. Is this a syntax issue? Any helpon this issue would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance.
I'm in the process of creating a series of packages to do the ETL for a datawarehouse. As such, I've got quite a few DataFlow tasks scattered through them.
The problem I'm coming across is where the disk that the temp files (created during the processing) are put on is short of space (when compared to some of the data sets I'm copying around and noting that it's the System disk, not the "Data Drive").
To get around this, I found number of article scattered around that suggested using the BufferTempStoragePath property of the DataFlow tasks to redirect the temp files to somewhere else. This works fine for the tasks that I hard-code the new directory.
Noting the number of these tasks that I want to redirect, and also that the Dev environment will be different to the Production environment (and I have no control over the drive letters, paths, etc, in Prod), it was suggested that a package variable be created, assigned to the property and then said variable could be exposed via the Package Configuration file.
That's great as far as it goes, but I just cannot, for some reason, make it work.
The property in the DataFlow task is then set to: @BufferTempStoragePathValue.
When the package is executed, it logs the error message "The buffer manager cannot create a temporary storage file on any path in the BufferTempStoragePath property. There is an incorrect file name or no permission."
My question for the group is two-fold: 1) what am I doing wrong in the setup of the property/variable, and 2) what are the security permissions that are required for the (new) folder.
It's got to be something obvious, I just can't see what!
im using a Foreach ADO Enumerator in my SSIS Package, which iterate on a DataSet from a SQL Task.
I use the "Variable Mappings" on my Foreach Loop to retrieve the values into User-variables. But what i need is a way to combine a value from the DataSet with a User-variable and assign this new value to a new User-variable.
In a stored procedure that I'm fixing, there is a problem with assigning variable values inside a loop. The proc is using dynamic SQL and if statements to build all these statements, but I'm having to add a new variable value to it that is throwing it out of whack.
This is the current structure:
SET @MktNbr = 10
WHILE @MktNbr < 90
BEGIN
DECLARE@sqlstmt varchar(1000)
SET @Market = '0' + CONVERT(char(2),@MktNbr)
SET @sqlstmt = 'SELECT (columns) INTO dbo.table' + @Market + ' FROM #table WHERE marketcode = ''' + @Market + ''' IF @MktNbr = 50 BEGIN SET @MktNbr = 51 END ELSE IF @MktNbr = 51 BEGIN SET @MktNbr = 52 END ELSE IF @MktNbr = 52 BEGIN SET @MktNbr = 55 END ELSE IF @MktNbr = 55 BEGIN SET @MktNbr = 60 END ELSE BEGIN SET @MktNbr = @MktNbr + 10 END EXEC (@sqlstmt)
END
I'm probably having a blonde moment, but I'm trying to replace the if statements with this:
SET @MktNbr = CASE WHEN @MktNbr = 10 THEN 20 WHEN @MktNbr = 20 THEN 30 WHEN @MktNbr = 30 THEN 40 WHEN @MktNbr = 40 THEN 50 WHEN @MktNbr = 50 THEN 51 WHEN @MktNbr = 51 THEN 52 WHEN @MktNbr = 52 THEN 55 WHEN @MktNbr = 55 THEN 60 WHEN @MktNbr = 60 THEN 70 WHEN @MktNbr = 70 THEN 80 WHEN @MktNbr = 80 THEN 81 ELSE @MktNbr END
Clearly it's wrong because the proc bombs every time with a duplicate table error.
It has been suggested to me that I should hold these market values in an external table. This sounds reasonable but I'm ashamed to admit that I don't know how I'd implement that. Can someone maybe give me a nudge in the right direction?
I would like to set up a subscription that has two date parameters, I would like the end_date to be today and the start_date to be (today - 1 Month). The interface does not seem to support expressions?
I saw some documentation that said to use defaults in the report but that does not help because I may want multiple subscriptions with different params like 1 person may want (today - 2 months) as the start date ...
Hello There: I am running a data flow within a ForEach loop wherein I am computing a value called QuotaGap. When it is 0 I do not want any further execution of the loop. I am using a Conditional Transform within this dataflow that writes a record to a table only when the QuotaGap is NOT 0. However, I am unable to terminate the execution of the loop as I am still within the dataflow.
Now, the computation of the gap requires a value from another variable called NetPurchases. I tried using an ExecuteSQL task in the control flow but could not figure out how to pass the value of the variable NetPurchases into the select statement to compute the gap. For example, the select statement would read:
select (QuotaUpperLimit - ?) As QuotaGap from <<tablename>>
I tried setting the parameter as an input as well as an output and it did not work.
Then I tried passing the entire SQL as a string within a variable. This does not work either because in order to compute the math QuotaUpperLimit - NetPurchases, both variables need to be integers but then you cannot concatenate integres together, which is what we need to do to create the SQL.
The other reason I am going through these hoops I guess is that I have not figured out a way to set the value of a variable within a data flow. I compute the value for QuotaGap within the dataflow in a ForEach loop but I have no way to pass this result to a variable called QuotaGap without using an ExecuteSQL task or another ForEach Loop.
I have spent hours on this simple issue and so have given up and looking to the good friends in this forum for help.
If what I have stated is not clear please let me know and I will try to clarify things a bit.
Is it possible to set a query result (scalar) to scalar variable. I would like to set a qery result (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM MyTable) to a scalar variable:
DECLARE @temp int
SET @temp = query result...
Is it possible? I couldn't find the way to do that...
I need to do something like this in SSIS:From one SQL table I need to get some id values, I am using a simple sql query:Select ID from Identifier where value is not null.I've got this result:As a final result I need to generate and set a variable in SSIS with the final value:
@var = '198','120','ACP','120','PQU'
Which I need to use later in a odbc expression.How can I do this in SSIS?
I am facing a strange problem in executing stored procedure. Basically my sproc will take a values from Java application and create a Insert statement. see stored procedure below.Just to give some more background- I am re writing the procedure which was written in oracle already.
Problem I am facing now is with the statement below . When I execute the procedure for first time it works fine however when I execute for second time onwards it is setting to empty. Not sure what is the problem with my declaration and setting up with values. For reference I have pasted my complete stored procedure code below.
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's got to be a better way...
I have a simple CSV/XLS dump that i need to put up on the server. I would need to create a file output daily and need a variable name to identify them easily. I have the problem of naming it in the "connection string" easily and i have tried variables and expressions too. I am new to this so please need help. Thanks
I'm working on an SSIS package that uses a vb.net script to grab some XML from a webservice (I'd explain why I'm not using a web service task here, but I'd just get angry), and I wish to then assign the XML string to a package variable which then gets sent along to a DataFlow Task that contains an XML Source that points at said variable. when I copy the XML string into the variable value in the script, if do a quickwatch on the variable (as in Dts.Variable("MyXML").value) it looks as though the new value has been copied to the variable, but when I step out of that task and look at the package explorer the variable is its original value.
I think the problem is that the dataflow XML source has a lock on the variable and so the script task isn't affecting it. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of problem, or know a workaround?
I have a SQL Task that updates running totals on a record inserted using a Data Flow Task. The package runs without error, but the actual row does not calculate the running totals. I suspect that the inserted record is not committed until the package completes and the SQL Task is seeing the previous record as the current. Here is the code in the SQL Task:
DECLARE @DV INT; SET @DV = (SELECT MAX(DateValue) FROM tblTG); DECLARE @PV INT; SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I've not been successful in passing a SSIS global variable to a declared parameter, but is it possible to do this:
DECLARE @DV INT; SET @DV = ?; DECLARE @PV INT; SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I have almost 50 references to these parameters in the query so a substitution would be helpful.
I'm new to SSIS, but have been programming in SQL and ASP.Net for several years. In Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition I've created an SSIS that imports data from a flat file into the database. The original process worked, but did not check the creation date of the import file. I've been asked to add logic that will check that date and verify that it's more recent than a value stored in the database before the import process executes.
Here are the task steps.
[Execute SQL Task] - Run a stored procedure that checks to see if the import is running. If so, stop execution. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
[Execute SQL Task] - Log an entry to a table indicating that the import has started.
[Script Task] - Get the create date for the current flat file via the reference provided in the file connection manager. Assign that date to a global value (FileCreateDate) and pass it to the next step. This works.
[Execute SQL Task] - Compare this file date with the last file create date in the database. This is where the process breaks. This step depends on 2 variables defined at a global level. The first is FileCreateDate, which gets set in step 3. The second is a global variable named IsNewFile. That variable needs to be set in this step based on what the stored procedure this step calls finds out on the database. Precedence constraints direct behavior to the next proper node according to the TRUE/FALSE setting of IsNewFile.
If IsNewFile is FALSE, direct the process to a step that enters a log entry to a table and conclude execution of the SSIS.
If IsNewFile is TRUE, proceed with the import. There are 5 other subsequent steps that follow this decision, but since those work they are not relevant to this post. Here is the stored procedure that Step 4 is calling. You can see that I experimented with using and not using the OUTPUT option. I really don't care if it returns the value as an OUTPUT or as a field in a recordset. All I care about is getting that value back from the stored procedure so this node in the decision tree can point the flow in the correct direction.
The SSIS package passes the FileCreateDate parameter to this procedure, which then compares that parameter with the date saved in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
If the date is newer (or if there is no date), it updates the field in that table and returns a TRUE IsNewFile bit value in a recordset.
Otherwise it returns a FALSE value in the IsNewFile column.
SELECT @CreateDateInTable = FileCreateDate FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
IF EXISTS (SELECT ProcessName FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName)
BEGIN
-- The process exists in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Compare the create dates.
IF (@FileCreateDate > @CreateDateInTable)
BEGIN
-- This is a newer file date. Update the table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
UPDATE tbl_ImportFileCreateDate
SET FileCreateDate = @FileCreateDate
WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- The file date is the same or older.
SET @IsNewFile = 0
END
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- This is a new process for tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Add a record to that table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportFileCreateDate (ProcessName, FileCreateDate)
VALUES (@ProcessName, @FileCreateDate)
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
SELECT @IsNewFile
The relevant Global Variables in the package are defined as follows: Name : Scope : Date Type : Value FileCreateDate : (Package Name) : DateType : 1/1/2000 IsNewFile : (Package Name) : Boolean : False
Setting the properties in the "Execute SQL Task Editor" has been the difficult part of this. Here are the settings.

I tried several SQL statements, suspecting it's a syntax issue. All of these failed, but with different error messages. These are the 2 most recent attempts based on posts I was able to locate.

When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the following error message appears.

When the above is run tbl_ImportFileCreateDate does not get updated, so it's failing at some point when calling the procedure.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ... exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output ... the tbl_ImportFileCreateDate table gets updated. So I know that data piece is working, but then it fails with the following message.

SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
The IsNewFile global variable is scoped at the package level and has a Boolean data type, and the Output parameter in the stored procedure is defined as a Bit. So what gives?
The "Possible Failure Reasons" message is so generic that it's been useless to me. And I've been unable to find any examples online that explain how to do what I'm attempting. This would seem to be a very common task. My suspicion is that one or more of the settings in that Execute SQL Task node is bad. Or that there is some cryptic, undocumented reason that this is failing.
I am in the middle of taking course 2073B €“ Programming a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Database. I noticed that in Module9: Implementing User-Defined Functions exercise 2, page 25; step 2 is not returning the correct answer.
Select employeeid,name,title,mgremployeeid from dbo.fn_findreports(2)
It returns manager id for both 2 and 5 and I think it should just return the results only for manager id 2. The query results for step 1 is correct but not for step 2.
Somewhere in the code I think it should compare the inemployeeid with the previous inemployeeid, and then add a counter. If the two inemployeeid are not the same then reset the counter. Then maybe add an if statement or a case statement. Can you help with the logic? Thanks!
Here is the code of the function in the book:
