User Variables In SSIS Package Scope
May 8, 2008
I have created two User variables at Package level (OldRunID{Int32} and NewRunID{Int32}). I am using two simple ExecuteSQL Tasks to get a Single Row Resultset return (each) and loading them (on Result Set Page). Using the Constraint and Expression Flow controls, I have found that they load to True (-1) instead of the 25 and 50, respectively, that I would expect. I then wrote a Script task to evaluate their values and find that I get zero for Dts.Variables.Count. - Why am I not loading the variables correctly and why can I not access them in the Script task?

Hi,
I am making use of the DtUtil tool to deploy my package to SQL Server.
Following is my configuration:
32-bit machine and 32-bit named instance of Yukon.
I have some package variables which need to be set in the code.
Previously I did it as follows:
Set the package variables in the code. For example:
pkgFile.Variables["User::DestinationServerName"].Value = <myvalue>
Deploy the package as follows:
applnObj.SaveToSqlServer(pkgFile, null,
destinationServer, null, null);
Here the package was successfully deployed and when i open those packages using BIDS, I am able to see that the variables are set to the values as doen in teh code.
Because of oen problem I am not using SaveToSQLServer method. So I switched to DTUtil tool.
Now I am doing it this way:
Set the package variables as before.
Deploy the package to SQL Server using DTUtil tool.
Now is the problem:
The package is successfully deployed. But the variables are not set to the value that I have specified in the code.
I also tried DTexec utility to set the package variable. Even that does n't work.
Can anyone help me out? Is there any alternate method to set package variables?
Thanks,
Sandhya

I have a SSIS package that was migrated from DTS 2000. It had a variable that I passed to the DTS package when executing. Now when I try executing the SSIS package with the variable, I get the following error: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "package.variables[user::SnapShotDate].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found.
From everything that I can find, I am passing the variable correctly. If I look at the package within BIDS, my variable is listed under the variable window & it is scoped for the package. Any ideas on what I might be missing here? This is my first SSIS package that contains a variable.
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!

I have defined an active X task (converting from SQL 2000)
Function Main()
DTSGLOBALVARIABLES("TEST").Value= InputBox("TEST : ","Message Box")
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
The problem is that this variable is not recognized by the subsequent tasks although I have defined a variable "TEST" in the variable lists.
Is there something else to do to get it recognized ?
Thanks for helping,
Pierre

In my report, I have a table with a nested group. The inner most group contains a column with values that are dynamically calculated in the report. I would like the outer group to display the sum of the inner group values. However, the outer group does not have access to the inner group scope.
As a solution, I am attempting to use the method detailed at this site:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1129743&SiteID=1
Essentially, the method is to declare a hash table in the embedded code where data can be stored. I slightly modified the code to the following:
Code Block
Public Dim hashTable as new System.Collections.HashTable
function setValue(key As Object, value As Object) As Object
If (Not hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then hashTable.Add(key, value)
Return value
end Function
function getValue(key As Object) As Object
If (hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then Return hashTable(key) Else Return Nothing
end Function
function sumRunningValue(key As Object, value As Object) As Object
If (Not hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then hashTable.Add(key, value) Else hashTable(key) = hashTable(key) + value
Return hashTable(key)
end Function
Inside the inner scope everything works great and I can even get the runnning value. But the reason I did this was to be able to access the value in the outer group. But, it doesn't work! When I call Code.getValue(key) I get Nothing back.
So, it seems this is a scope issue. Is anyone aware of a work around for this problem. Is it possible to declare the hashtable with a global scope, for instance? Is the code redeclared for every new group?
Thanks for any assistance,
Tyler

I am a SSIS novice, and need help to do the following:
Every day a Table is generated by the system of format XR+present Year + present month + present day. My task is pretty simple. I am to devise a SSIS package that will import this table on to a different server.
I have defined the variable as user defined variable. I am also able to specify the variable in OLE db source editor -> Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable. When I am click the 'Columns' feature, I get the following error
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E37.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: Opening a rowset for "xr+ convert(char(8),getdate(), 112)" failed. Check that the object exists in the database.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC02020E8 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
In short can any one tell me a correct way of using a table name as variable in
Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable ?
One other question: can I make use of a dynamic SQL in Execute SQL Task? If yes, how do I write the query
exec( 'select * from ' + @table)
or just
select * from @table
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have been looking at the project Real reference implementation for doing auditing of data uploads. The tables and store procedures are in place using identical field and variable names. However, when running the package it does not update the relevant log entry with the end time and status.
I have performed the process manually running the stored procedures, providing the values directly and everything works fine.
I can only assume that the LogID variable is not being updated during the run and therefore the onEnd procedure cannot update the relevant log entry.
One side effect is that it does update the record when it€™s the first record entered into the table but not on any other inserts. Clearing the table each time is not an option.
This has become rather frustrating and would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks.

I've got an SSIS package that works fine. It does extracts from a foreign ODBC source and moves it to SQL Server. It has 3 variables, a customer ID, a fromDate and a toDate. Those variables are used to complete a SQL statement expression. So far so good.
I now want to provide a web interface in a web page that will enable the user to provide values for those variables. How can I execute my package passing the user's input?
Thanks for any advice.

I've got a package in SSIS 2012 that has an Execute SQL task in the control flow level.
The SQL in question does an Upsert via the SQL merge statement. What I want to do, is return the count of records inserted and records updated (No deletes going on here to worry about). I'm using the output option to output the changed recs to a table variable.
I've tried returning the values as:
Select Count(*) as UpdateCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Update'
and
Select Count(*) as InsertCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Insert'
I've tried setting the resultset to both Single rowset and Full rowset, but i'm not seeing anything returned to the package variables I've set for them (intInsertcount and intUpdatecount).

Can I assign values to variables in 2012 using below command? I have used the same command in 2008 and it works fine.
DTEXEC
/SERVER"XXXXXXXXSQLSERVER2012"/SQL"Mypackage.dtsx"/SETPackage.Variables[FilePath].Value;"C:Test estvariable.csv"
Wondering is there a different way in 2012 to pass values to variables dynamically.

Hi,
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .
I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).
It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.
are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW
/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"
'

I saved a simple export/import package from the import/export wizard to a .dtsx file/package. Now I want to change the package to delete/truncate all of the tables before adding data. (since this has 80 tables it would have been a pain to edit each of them individually)
How can I easily go about doing this with the SSIS package. I can't find out where this would actually be executed.
Also, how can I actually view the code behind the SSIS package.
Thanks.

I have a small SSIS package which:
- drops existing table in Excel,
- creates a new one in Excel,
- copies data from SQL to newly created sheet.
So there are 2 connections: one to a excel file, and second to SQL using sa account. I am working on my account belonging to Administrators group.
SQL Server and Excel file are on my development machine. Everything works ok when I run package from file system using DTExecUI.exe (in context of my user belonging to Administrator group). But when I have created job to execute this package problem with security occured. Even assigning local account on which SQL Server and SQL Server Agent works to Administrator group do not help. I have simulated what can happen when running DTExecUI.exe utility in contex of different user. I have used Administrator (I start it using "Run As..." from context menu in Explorer"). And what occured, SSIS package can not login to SQL Server using sa user!
1. Why running DTExecUI.exe in context of different user impact login to SQL on sa accout? If it were Windows Integrated I could understand it.
2. Especially if the different user is also Administrator!!!
I have found solution for running a task in SQL Agent - SQL Agent has to work on the same account on which SSIS package was created. But this is crazy when I would like to deploy it to a production server.
Please help.

Is there any way to change variable scope while using package templates?
I have created a package template that has several variables, a "typical" control flow and data flow. My goal was to try and use this as a starting point to create other packages within the same project and edit as required in the new package. I couldn't find any way (yet) to change scope of variables...these still show as belonging to the scope of package used to create the template.
Appreciate any help...thanks.

All:
I am working with a package that executes a stored procedure. This stored procedure makes use of a Linked Server. When I execute it in debug mode in VS 2005, it works flawlessly. However when I deploy it to the production server and execute it by going to Management Studio, connecting to Integration Services, navigating to MSDB, right clicking and choosing "run package" I get the infamous:
Login failed for user '(null)'. Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection. OLE DB Provider SQLNCLI for linked server [name] returned message "Communication Link Failer"
error. If I execute the stored procedure by itself on the production server, it works flawlessly. It is only when this stored procedure gets executed via the above mentioned way inside of an SSIS pack that I get this error. To me this suggest it is being executed as a different user, but I don't know which one.
Any help would be wonderful.
Thank you in advance...

I have the following stored procedure to test scope of variables
alter proc updatePrereq
@pcntr int,
@pmax int
as
begin
[Code] ....
In the above script @i is declare in the if block only when the @pcntr value is 1. Assume the above stored procedure is called 5 times from this script
declare @z int
set @z = 1
declare @max int
set @max = 5
while @z <= @max
begin
exec dbo.updatePrereq @z, @max
set @z = @z + 1
end
go
As i said earlier `@i` variable exists only when `@pcntr` is `1`. Therefore when i call the stored procedure for the second time and so forth the control cannot enter the if block therefore @i variable wouldn't even exist. But the script prints the value in `@i` in each iteration, How comes this is possible should it throw an error saying `@i` variable does not exist when `@pcntr` values is greater than `1`?

The requirements are:
1. the user has read-only permissions to dbo tales.
2. the user can do everything within the rpt schema, which contains all objects analyzing dbo tables.
3. the user does not have any permission outside rpt schema, except permissions in #1.
The current solutions are:
1. grant the user select only on dbo tables.
2. make the user the owner of rpt schema.
3. Grant the user database permission on create table/create procedure/create view/create function.
My question is - in step 3, should I just grant "Alter" database permission to the user? Granting Alter seems to be cleaner and simpler. According to MSDN,
"Alter" confers the ability to change the properties, except ownership, of a particular securable. When granted on a scope, ALTER also bestows the ability to alter, create, or drop any securable that is contained within that scope.

I have taken three dtsx files and re written them into one each in its own container. I use the XML Task task alot which the File connection is set by a variable and the variable value is evaluated by expression (the expression makes up the path/filename from other variable values). All the variables that make up the connection are at the container scope. The package will not run now because it is saying that the source (created by variables) for the file connection do not exist.
It seems the answer is that file connections exist at the package level therefore the variable has to be at the package level. This seems to be alot of variables i now have to move to package level to generate the XML source connection. Which in essence makes it confusing as to which variables operate in which container.
My question is can we easily move variable scope (Not ideal as we have alot of variables at package level) Or Can we do the same for connection managers as we do for variables and have them only used in a scope? (this will be ideal as some connections only need to be at a container scope)

Hello All,
I have a Master Package which calls a group of other packages out on the SSIS Package Store using parent / child and a number of variables. These seem to work when passing various audit information (audit key, record counts, etc) but when I try to pass a variable for the connection string and assign it via an expression to the connection manager, I get the Master Package writing to the correct database and the children package writing to their "default" database which is supplied as the default value in the variables which should be populated by the parent task.
i.e., I end up with my master package audit information in database a and child package audit and transactions in database b, even though the packages associated with these transactions are supposed to be reading the connection string from a parent variable. Any clues or suggestions?
Edit: It is still passing along the correct parent audit information and record counts, it's just not connecting to the correct database by the variables holding the connect string
Thanks for your time.

I want to loop through a recordset of email addresses, and for each value in the recordset, I want to perform a set of task which includes creating an Excel spreadsheet and emailing it through to those email addresses.
I have 2 DTS package.
Package 1 - This contains an ActiveXScript task. The purpose of this package is to do the looping through of the recordset, and passing the email address variable to package 2.
Package 2 - Receives the email address from package 1. Package 2 contains the creating Excel spreadsheet and emailing it through to the recipients function.
I am having difficulty passing the variable from package 1 to package 2.
The code I have to date for the ActiveXScript task in package 1 is:
'************************************************* *********************
' Visual Basic ActiveX Script
'************************************************* ***********************
Function Main()
Dim oPackage
Dim oStep
Dim oTask
Dim oCustTask
Dim oGlobal
'Initialise package
Set oPackage = CreateObject("DTS.Package2")
Set oStep = oPackage.Steps.New
oStep.Name = "TestStep"
Set oTask = oPackage.Tasks.New ("DTSExecutePackageTask")
Set oCustTask = oTask.CustomTask
oCustTask.Name = "TestCustTask"
oStep.TaskName = oCustTask.Name
oPackage.Steps.Add oStep
oCustTask.FileName = "C:TempVeraTest1.dts"
oPackage.Tasks.Add oTask
set oGlobal = oPackage.GlobalVariables.New("CurrentAirlineCode")
oGlobal.value = "SIA"
oPackage.GlobalVariables.Add oGlobal
'Execute package
oPackage.Execute
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
This does not work. Can anyone please help?
Thanks very much in advance.

I know there is a global variable feature in DTS that allows you to pass data or object references between several different Activex scripts in a single package.
What I'm looking for is a method of using a Transact-SQL variable (like @whatever) that I could use across several "Execute SQL" tasks within the same DTS package.
Does anyone know if this functionality exists (directly or indirectly)?
Thanks,
Joe T.

Couldn't quite find the answer I was looking for via a forum search.
I have 9 packages that are currently called by a master package - all child packages take a datetime variable from the master package which is subsequently used in the child processes.
The question I have is that if I run the master package manually from Visual Studio I can set the master package variable manually to a date of my choosing and run it, which works fine. However we will be wishing to automate the package execution at some point and want to know the best way to run the package(s) on an automated basis and have the data variable supplied to the master package.
What would be the best way to do this ?
Presently we have a variable called MasterPackage_vLoaddate which is a DateTime data type.
Any help appreciated.
