Using Constants In DTS
Mar 22, 2004
I am really new to DTS but I have had moderate success creating packages to move and tranform data in one DB to a new DB. The problem I am having is that I can not figure out how to use a constant in my transformation.
I am moving data from an old DB to a new DB. Currently all of my users in the old DB will have the same user role in the new DB. So I basically want to move all of my user ids to a lookup table and then give them all the same role id. Seems like it should be easy, but no luck here.
Does anyone have some advice?
thanks

I have several instances of "magic number" variables (tinyints). In myprogram, I have assigned an enumeration to make the meaning clear, such as:enum Condition {Green = 0,Yellow,Red}In my database, one of the tables contains a "Condition" field (tinyint),which stores the number 0, 1 or 2. However, in my Stored Procedures I amhaving to use magic numbers as follows:SELECT * From Nodes Where Condition = 1(to select all nodes with yellow condition)Obviously, meaning is obfuscated here. I would rather use constants but nothave to re-define them in every stored procedure I use.I there any way to do this?

I would like to create a file named macro_def.m that contains the following:
define(_HELP,1000)
define(_INSERT,2000)
define(_UPDATE,3000)
define(_DELETE,4000)
define(_retcode,`eval($1)')
Then in any stored procedure that I have I would like to do something like:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbp].[sp_AddNew]
INCLUDE "macro_def.m"
BEGIN
insert into tablex (name,number) values ("text",_retcode(_INSERT))
END
GO
Questions:
What is the syntax in the SP to inlude a file like macro_def.m ?
Where do I save the macro_def.m file ?
Do I need to include a path in the INCLUDE statement ?

Hi There,
I can't figure out what is causing this error: can you please have a look at my code and let em know what is wrong or rework it for me:
="SELECT ARIBC.cntbtch, ARIBC.btchdesc, ARIBC.AUDTUSER, ARIBC.AUDTDATE, ARIBC.AUDTTI, GLPSOFTMAP.PSPRODUCT, GLPSOFTMAP.PSDEPT, GLPSOFTMAP.PSACCOUNT, GLPSOFTMAP.ACCTID, ARIBH.CODECURN, ARIBH.INVCDESC, CONVERT(varchar,ARIBH.FISCYR + ARIBH.FISCPER) as PERIOD, CONVERT(varchar,ARIBH.IDCUST) AS ACCOUNT, ARCUS.NAMECUST as ARNAME, CASE TEXTTRX WHEN 1 THEN 'INV' WHEN 2 THEN 'DM' WHEN 3 THEN 'CM' END AS CLASS, CONVERT(varchar,ARIBH.IDINVC) AS TRX_NUMBER, (CASE TEXTTRX WHEN 3 THEN ROUND((ARIBD.AMTEXTN*-1),2) ELSE ROUND((ARIBD.AMTEXTN),2) END) AS ""AMOUNT FROM ARIBC"" INNER JOIN ARIBH ON ARIBC.CNTBTCH = ARIBH.CNTBTCH INNER JOIN ARCUS ON ARIBH.IDCUST = ARCUS.IDCUST INNER JOIN ARIBD ON ARIBH.CNTBTCH = ARIBD.CNTBTCH AND ARIBH.CNTITEM = ARIBD.CNTITEM INNER JOIN GLAMF ON ARIBD.IDACCTREV = GLAMF.ACCTFMTTD INNER JOIN GLPSOFTMAP ON ARIBD.IDACCTREV = GLPSOFTMAP.ACCTID WHERE ARIBC.BTCHSTTS=3 AND ERRENTRY <= 0 AND BTCHDESC NOT LIKE '%54-8003%' AND ARIBH.IDINVC in ('" &Replace(Parameters!invoicenum.Value,",","','")"
Thanks,

I'm pulling data from one database in which the headerID is the primary key which automatically increases by one on each insert. Modifying all of the other fields from one data type to another and then inserting them into another database after the convertion is done. I keep getting this error.
The name 'HeaderID' is not permitted in this context. Only constants, expressions, or variables allowed here. Column names are not permitted.
INSERT INTO [DatabaseName].[dbo].[InvoiceHeaderConverted]
([HeaderID], [InvoiceNumber], [StoreNumber], [DeliveryDate], [DueDate],
[TotalInvoice], [TotalTax], [ManifestNumber])
VALUES(HeaderID = @HeaderID, InvoiceNumber = @InvoiceNumber, StoreNumber = @StoreNumber,
DeliveryDate = @DeliveryDate, DueDate = @DueDate, TotalInvoice = @TotalInvoice,
TotalTax = @TotalTax, ManifestNumber = @ManifestNumber)
Can anyone point me in the right direction on this one. The headerid isn't autogenerated in the second database but is still the primary key.

I want to have this query insert a bunch of XML but i get this error...
Msg 128, Level 15, State 1, Procedure InsertTimeCard, Line 117
The name "ExpenseRptID" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted.
Msg 128, Level 15, State 1, Procedure InsertTimeCard, Line 151
The name "DateWorked" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted.
What am i doing wrong...Can anyone help me out!! Thanks!!
