I am very new to SQL Server 2005. I have created a package to load data from a flat delimited file to a database table. The initial load has worked. However, in the future, I will have flat files used to update the table. Some of the records will need to be inserted and some will need to update existing rows. I am trying to do this from SSIS. However, I am very lost as to how to do this.
Any suggestions?
Hi,
I could use some help on how to save the result of my data-flow in an existing table.
I have created a data flow. I have no trouble storing the result of the flow in a new table. But I'm trying to store the result of my data flow in an existing table. (The flow involves fuzzy grouping, and i would like to store the result in the original table on which the fuzzy grouping was performed). But I cannot get it to work.
I can select the existing table as OLE DB destination. I can write an SQL to manipulate this table, but how do i address the result of the flow in the SQL?
Help is welcome here!
I have a dataset that was created via a source + lookups + derived columns.
I wish to take this dataset and treat is as a table within a sql statement so that I can update a permanent table with the a specific value within the temp dataset.
In sql this is what I am trying to do:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS Count_of_Employees, DEPT
FROM Employees
GROUP BY DEPT
UPDATE Departments
SET Number_of_Employees = Count_of_Employees
WHERE Dept = dept.
I have a data flow task with a single source and destination task. I'm having the source task creating a table from a variable expression and the destination table also created from a variable expression. I'm running this under 3 scenarios in which each scenario has a different source and destination table. They are different in name but close in table structure with the exception of one column being different. The Metadata for the source flow path seems to be "sticky" in that it is not modifying the source table structure in the flow to account for this different column. I'm not sure how to adjust this. Any ideas? I've modified several properties in the task and data flow but nothing seems to make this adjustment in run-time.

It has a Y and X axis, i.e. Sun-Mon, Sun-Mon across the top and Categories of hour types accross the Y axis, i.e. Holidays, Overtime, Maintenance.
I was using a datagrid to gather the rows, but I need to have the whole grid in edit mode which is something that requires more coding. So I have swapped to a datalist.
It will take me 240 fields to store all the data in their corresponding fields. So I basically need to know if there is an easier way to store two dimensional array type data into an SQL table using a minimum of fields.
SQLNewbie writes "I have a table 'ImportedListings' that is populated with data external to the database. This table is only used to hold the data until I can move it to the permanent table 'Listings' at which point 'ImportedListings' gets truncated to nothing. Both tables contain almost identical data and structure. There is a listing ID column available for joins.
Basically I need to compare each row in ImportedListing and if it already exists in Listing, UPDATE Listing with the new info. If the row in ImportedListing doesn't exist in Listing, I need to INSERT it.
Physically deleting rows from the listings table is not an option. Do you have any ideas on how I can do this? I initially tried using a temp table to hold the matching listing id's but I could not get figure out the update statement with this scenario.

I have created a single Data Flow Task that reads a set of records from a source table and then makes determinations whether to insert, update or delete from a destination table. The data is basically being copied from one database to another with a small amount of data manipulation and lookups. The problem seems to be that when running the task, even a small amount of records read from the source table seem to take a long time for the task to finish. I feed the records into a Script Component (the brains) that sorts the records to three separate outputs. I use OLE DB Commands to perform the DELETE and UPDATE and an OLE DB Destination for INSERT. I thought that by using three separate database connections would help, but it just appears to be locked while trying to perform these commands against the same table.
Is there a way to control or route these three record sets in such a way as to perform them sequentially?
I know it's a bit of a simple question for some of you, but I'm just learning SSIS (but I like it!).
Thanks!

I am relatively new to SQL and am having trouble with an update. I know I cannot use a join update and have to use subquery. I am not sure of the syntax on how to do this. Below is basically what I want to do, but cannot figure out how to do it with a subquery. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm an sql/SSMSE novice, but have successfully connected to my sql database on a webserver.
My question is: Can I update the table data "directly" using SSMSE's interface, or do i have to run an sql update statement? (By updating table data directly, i mean: can i view the contents of a table, and simply edit the data in a field, like with in an MS Access table?) If I can update the data "directly," how does one do that?
Thanks a lot!

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe've installed the Oracle provider for OLE DB on SQL Server 2005, which has the default collation (SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS), and we've created a linked server for the Oracle 9.2.0.5 database, which has AL32UTF8 as the database character set. We can successfully insert strings into VARCHAR2 columns on Oracle from SQL Server via EXEC SP_EXECUTESQL('INSERT OPENQUERY(...) VALUES(...)') -- as long as the strings (whether selected from NVARCHAR columns on SQL Server or specified as literals with the N prefix during testing) only contain Windows-1252 characters.
If the SQL statement contains a character above U+00FF, the string on the Oracle side is incorrectly/doubly encoded; there are nearly (but not exactly) 4 bytes per character instead of the 1 or 2 you'd expect from ASCII/Latin-1 characters encoded as UTF-8.
We've tried reconfiguring the linked server: collation compatible = false, use remote collation = true, and collation name = Latin1_General_BIN2. But that had no effect.
What is the correct way to do this?
Thanks!
Hi Gnite everyone, i once again need help with a T-SQL syntax for Auto Correction for insert and update when client enters the wrong format, i;e, creating a SSN Data type and a User Defined Procedure that auto corrects input format i;e,

Hi,
Inside a single transaction I'm inserting/updating multiple records into multiple tables, in this order:
table 1 record 1
table 2 record 1
table 3 record 1
table 1 record 2
table 2 record 1
table 1 record 3
table 2 record 3
table 3 record 3
Now I'm getting an unspecified error on a certain table:
Unspecified error [ 3,-1300704038,-1834095882,activitypointerBase,x lock (x blocks),PAG (idx): 1078 ]
From msdn I see that:
PAG (idx) means a lock on an index page.
x lock means an exclusive lock:
Indicates a data modification, such as an insert, an update, or a deletion. Ensures that multiple updates cannot be made to the same resource at the same time. (I assume that multiple updates within the SAME transaction can be made, only multiple updates from different transaction cannot be made, right?)
I cannot find any reference to this error message and don't know what the numbers mean. Maybe it relates to data that can be found in the sys.lock_information table like explained here, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172932.aspx, but I'm not sure.
Furthermore, the sys.lock_information table is empty. I haven't been able to reproduce the problem myself. I only received an error log and the database to investigate it.
So, does anybody have an idea what this error message means and what I can do to troubleshoot this?
Thanks,

I have a table with a datetime field 'TheDate'. Currently dates are stored as 'mm-dd-yyyy 00:00:00'. Is there a way to get just the month, day and year parts, '01/01/2008' into the field without changing the field data type to varchar? I'm asking because when I do this:
declare @MyDate as datetime
set @MyDate = '04/02/2008 18:00:00'
select substring(convert(varchar,@MyDate,101),1,10)
I get '04/02/2008', but when I do this:
update TheTable
set TheDate = substring(convert(varchar,TheDate,101),1,10)
I'm still getting a date in the format 'mm-dd-yyyy 00:00:00' stored in the table. I'd like to be able to lose the time portion, but I'd like to be able to keep the datetime datatype for date math purposes. Can it be done?
I'm trying to move my current use of an sql 2000 db to sql 2005.
I need to update a table definition (to change a field to an Identity)
I'm getting a dialog box (in SQL server management studio) on save saying :
'xxxx' table
- Saving Definition Changes to tables with large amounts of data could
take a considerable amount of time. While changes are being
saved, table data will not be accessible.
I press 'Yes' to the dialog box.
After 35 seconds, I get another dialog box saying:
'xxxx' table
- Unable to modify table.
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
Well, the server is responding and I can query that talbe and other, I
can add/delete rows to other columns. I can modify other
(smaller) tables.
Any ideas where I can change this timeout?
