How can I split this incoming file into separate txts. I want to cut out each Header/detail row section into a new txt. What I mean by header/detail row:
incoming txt file:
http://www.webfound.net/split.txt
basically want to cut out each section like this:
http://www.webfound.net/what_to_cut.txt
http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg
and a kicker...each new txt name must use a certain field (based on x numbers in header row) followed by another field whcih is the date form the header row. somethign like this:
I need some hand holding here, it's my first time trying to do something so complicated in SSIS 2005. If I can first just get the txt split into multiple, that would be a big help.
I have one of our production Accounting Databases starting from 2 GBnow grown into a 20 GB Database over the period of a few years...I have been getting timeouts when transactions are trying to updatedifferent tables in the database.. Most of the error I get are I/Orequests to the data file (Data file of the production dbAccounting_Data.MDF).I would like to implement the following to this Accounting database.I need to split the Data file into multiple files by placing some ofthe tables in different file groups. I have the server upgraded to beable to have different drives in different channels. I can place thesedata and log files in different drives so it will be less I/Oconflicts..I would like to have the following file groups..FileGroup 1 - which will have all database definitions (DDL).FileGroup 2 - I will have the AR Module tables under here..FileGroup 3 - I will have the GL module tables under here..FileGroup 4 - I will have the rest of the tables under hereFileGroup 5 - I will like to place the indexes under here....Also where will the associated transaction files go?I would like to get some help doing this. Is there any articles / helpavailable that I can refer to. Any suggestions / corrections/criticisms to what I have mentioned above is much appreciated...!Thanks in advance....
I have one really long .sql file I'm working on. It's actually a data conversion type script. It's gotten really cumbersome to work on as long as it is. I would like to split up various logical parts of script into their own .sql file.How can I have one file .bat, .sql or whatever call each .sql file in the order I specify? Hoping this is easy. Thanks
I have a delimited text file with 650+ columns. The sum of the column lengths of a single row, if fully populated, exceeds 30K bytes. The "killer" fields lengthwise are the "Description" fields. If they were removed from the input file, the remainig columns would occupy about 5000 bytes, which is within SQL max row length.Â
Can SSIS be used to created these two tables? (one without  description fields, the other with those field but arranged vertically in the table rows).
The fundamental issue is I can not import a single file row into a sql table because that row length could exceed the max byte count for a row.
Hi all, I have a requirement like this , I have Address Column.It is containing data like Mr. K KK Tank Guntur Jal Bhavan, Univercity Road, Rajkot 9843563469 I have to split this into 3 more columns like(Address1,name,phoneno)-- Means i have 4 columns including Address Column.(Address,Address1,name,phoneno)
Example: Address:Rajkot Address1:Univercity Road Name:Mr. K KK Tank Guntur Jal Bhavan PhoneNO:9843563469
How can i acheive this one with out data lose in Address Column. Thanks in advance.
Code: SELECT CDELIG.CDELIG_QTE AS [Quantity], (ARTICLE.ART_PRIXPUBLIC * CDELIG.CDELIG_QTE) * 100 AS [Total line price], (CDELIG.CDELIG_PU_SUBACC_MNT * CDELIG.CDELIG_QTE) * 100 AS [Grant] FROM CDELIG INNER JOIN ARTICLE ON ARTICLE.ART_ID = CDELIG.ART_ID And the result like this:
Quantity Total line price Grant 120 84000 0.0000 255 178500 0.0000 1 700 0.0000
The problem is that if a quantity is higher than 99 i got to split the row. And the others has to change also because the quantity would have change.The expected result will be like this:
Quantity Total line price Grant 99 69300 0 21 14700 0 99 69300 0 99 69300 0 57 39900 0 1 700 0
Hoping someone here can help. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but I'm surprised not to see a data flow task in SSIS for splitting *columns* to different destinations. I see the Conditional Split task can be used to route a *row* one way or another, but what about columns of a single row?
As a simple and somewhat contrived example, let's say I have a row with twelve fields and I'm importing the row into a normalized data structure. There are three target tables with a 1-to-1 relationship (that is, logically they are one table, but physically they are three tables, with one of them considered the "primary" table), and the twelve input fields can be mapped to four columns in each of the three tables.
How do I "split" the columns? The best way I can see is to Multicast the row to three different OLE-DB Destinations, each of which inserts to one of the three target tables, only grabbing the four fields needed from the input row.
Or should I feed the row through three successive OLE-DB Command tasks, each one inserting into the appropriate table? This would offer the advantage, theoretically, of allowing me to grab the identity-based surrogate primary key from the first of the three inserts in order to enable the two subsequent inserts.
I would like to break this into multiple time_in/time_out based on if they have breaks. Breaks are not required and will come across blank if non are taken.
Hi, I have a scenario, where I have a string column from database with value as "FTW*Christopher,Lawson|FTW*Bradley,James". In my report, I need to split this column at each " | " symbol and place each substring one below the other in one row of a report as shown below .
I have a table with a varchar column that is delimited by char(227)+char(228) i.e.,

Note: we are getting source data from sqlserver tables.
I googled and found below way but did't get the output as required
SELECT A.id, a.country, Split.a.value('.', 'VARCHAR(500)') AS String FROM (SELECT id, country , CAST ('<M>' + REPLACE(country, ' ', '</M><M>') + '</M>' AS XML) AS String FROM #t3) AS A CROSS APPLY String.nodes ('/M') AS Split(a);
I am using DTS and VBScript in DataPump tasks in order to transfer large amounts of data from text files to an SQL database.
As the database uses a normalized schema, there is often the case of inserting multiple records in a destination table from various fields of the same record of the source text file.
For example, if the source record contains information about goods sold like date, customer, item code, item name and total amount, and does so for a maximum of 3 goods per sale (row), therefore has the structure:
I have tried using a datapump task and VBScript, and I guess it has to do with the DTSTransformStat_**** constants, but none of those I used seems to work
I have a table with a string value, where all values are seperated by a space/blank. I now want to use SQL to split all the values and insert them into a different table, which then later will result in deleting the old table, as soon as I got all values out from it.
Old Table:
Code: ID, StringValue
New Table:
Code: ID, Value1, Value2 Do note: Value1 is INT, Value2 is of nvarchar, hence Value2 can contain spaces... I just need to split on the FIRST space, then convert index[0] to int, and store index[1] as it is.
I can split on all spaces and just Select them all and add them like so: SELECT t.val1 + ' ' + t.val2... If I cant find the first space that is... I mean, first 2-10 characters in the string can be integer, but does not have to be.Shall probably do it in code instead of SQL?Now I want to run a query that selects the StringValue from OldTable, splits the string by ' ' (a blank) and then inserts them into New Table.
Code: SELECT CASE CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) WHEN 0 THEN OldTable.stringvalue ELSE SUBSTRING(OldTable.stringvalue, 1, CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) - 1) END AS FirstWord FROM OldTable
Found an example using strange things like CHARINDEX..But issue still remains, because the first word is of integer, or it does not have to be...If it isn't, there is not "first value", and the whole string shall be passed into "value2".How to detect if the very first character is of integer type?
Code: @declare firstDigit int IF ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) = 1 set @firstDigit = CAST(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) ELSE set @firstDigit = -1
ID - INT Machine - TINYINT StartTime - DATETIME EndTime - DATETIME
What I am trying to do is figure out how much time is used for production per day. The problem is, there are production runs that run over midnight and possible multiple days without ending. For example, if I have the following data:
I was to split each record into multiple columns. The problem is some records need to be split into only 1 column, others may need to be split into more. Also need to remove the "/"'s. This is all dependent  on where a "/" is found. Been beating my head for a while and getting nowhere.
So:
create table #foo (myPK int, c1 nvarchar(425)) insert into #foo values (1,'/folder1') insert into #foo values (2,'/lvl1/folder2') insert into #foo values (3,'/folder1/lvl2/folder3') insert into #foo values (4,'/f1/folder2/lvl3/fldr4')
Generating the 4 lines is not the issue; I call 3 functions to do that together with cross apply.One function to get all dates between the start and end date (dbo.AllDays returning a table with only a datevalue column); one function to have these dates evaluated against a work schedule (dbo.HRCapacityHours) and one function to get the absence records (dbo.HRAbsenceHours) What I can't get fixed is having the correct hours per line.
Deciding whether or not to use a CTE or this simple faster approach utilizing system tables, hijacking them.
SELECT s.ORDER_NUMBER, s.PRODUCT_ID, 1 AS QTY, s.VALUE/s.QTY AS VALUE FROM @SPLITROW s INNER JOIN master.dbo.spt_values t ON t.type='P' AND t.number BETWEEN 1 AND s.QTY
Just wanted to know if its okay to use system tables in a production environment and if there are any pit falls of using them ?
I have a report that groups a particular dataset by customer, with a page break between each customer. If print this report, it looks great - one page per customer.
What I would like to do is have the report deployed on schedule to a windows file share, one .pdf file per customer. How to parse the output into individual .pdfs (one per customer) instead of a single .pdf containing all customers? I get it if this is not possible.
My current (painful) workaround would be to replicate the report for each potential customer, and set a schedule for each report to deploy sequentially. (Customer 1 at 9:00, Customer 2 at 9:01, etc).
We are building a dataload application where parameters are store in a table. And there are multiple packages for each load.There is a column IsChecked column if it is 1 then only the child package should execute.Created a master package. In which i have taken execute SQL task in that storing a results in variable and based on the result the child package should execute. But In executesql task i selected result set as full result set. Â I am getting the below error.
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "SELECT Â isnull(ID ,0) AS ID FROM DataLoadParameter..." failed with the following error: "The type of the value (DBNull) being assigned to variable "User::LoadValue" differs from the current variable type (Int32). Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I have an input file with fixed-width columns that I want to import into two tables.. 5 of the input columns go to 1 table and the remaining 15 go to another table. What's a good way to do this in SSIS?
I know this should be simple but I can't figure it out. I am reading in a csv file to a conditional split task, all I want to do is split the file based on a field. Some values in field will have a suffix say ABCD while others wont. So my conditional split says Right(FieldA,4)=="ABCD" which then splits file in two directions or at least it's meant to. Problem is that it does not work. I think it has something to do with the field type in the csv file although I have tried using a Data Conversion task but to no avail all the field values with ABCD suffix are ignored by my conditional split and head off the same way as other values. Funny thing is is that if I manually add a value to the file with a suffix of ABCD and run task again then the conditional split works on the manually added row and all rows with suffix of ABCD. It's like it does not recognise previous values as string until one is added manually.
Hi.. We have a MSSQL application and the DB file (not the log file) seems getting bigger over this few year and right now you are running almost out of space. May I know how does the other company deal with this kind of situation?
i am sure other company data is getting bigger as well and it has been longer time than ours. How to deal with it ?
Do anyone have an idea of how to split one report (Report subscribed for automatic delivery) into many file based on the volume of the data retrieved (records1-50 first file, 51-100 second file ect.,).
Say for example I have an employee and department table. The report is designed to provide a list of employees for a given department. If the department contains more than 50 employees then the report is exported individual file for every 50 employees.
- 500 GB DW - 5 GB in smaller DBs - 220 GB TempDB - 350 GB in Log files.
My machine is Fujitsu Primergy 64 cores (with HT) and 192 GB RAM.
I have several IO locations:
- 540 GB in-server HDD 15k RAID10 - 1 TB HDD 15k RAID10 on SAN (separete controller) - 2 TB HDD 15k RAID10 on SAN (same controlller as below) - 800GB SSD RAID10 on SAN (same controller as above)
Data warehouse has 2 fact tables that are absolutely crucial and quite large.
Now i want to organize DB into several Filegroups and put them on different drives. Filegroups I'm thinking of:
- FILEGROUP1: for 1st crucial Fact Table - FILEGROUP2: for 2nd crucial Fact Table - FILEGROUP3: for tempDB - FILEGROUP4: for dimensions data - FILEGROUP5: for the rest of facts data - FILEGROUP6: for dimensions indexes - FILEGROUP7: for the rest of facts indexes - FILEGROUP8: for 1 log file of one smaller DB (its in full-recovery and its quite large) - FILEGROUP9: for the rest of log files - FILEGROUP10: others
How should I organize them across available drives? I was thinking about sth like:
I know that having multiple filegroups on the same drive is pointless regarding performance, but in future i could actually add some more drives, so i want to separate them now.
Also - how much files per filegroups should i create? Considering 1 or 2. Except TempDB where I am going for 4.
