Wants Help For Extracting Semicolon Seprated Names From A Record
Aug 30, 2007
Hello friends,
I am designing an ETL process in which I have a source column which contains names seprated by semicolon( i.e Rajat Kr Sharma;Mr Sammer;Mr Ravi;Mr Ankur Bhatnagar) in each row.
ETL process should create n records,one for each single name in destination table as n numbers of name apprear
in each row of source table.
The number of names can vary in each row of source table as per no. of delimited character semicolon.
So Can some one suggest me to lay out some plan and what controls of SSIS I should use?
Here I m giving the pictorial view of activity I'm trying to carryout.
Source Table Row
______________________________________________________________________
|Rajat Kr Sharma;Mr Sammer;Mr Ravi;Mr Ankur Bhatnagar |
|_____________________________________________________________________ |
Changes to Destination Table
______________________________________
|Rajat Kr Sharma |
|_____________________________________|
|Mr Sammer |
|_____________________________________|
|Mr Ravi |
|_____________________________________|
|Mr Mr Ankur Bhatnagar |

I am using the following to extract the column names of a table. I would like to do this for the whole database. Currently I am cutting the results into an excel spread. Is there a better way of doing this? Here is the query

FROM syscolumns
WHERE [id] = OBJECT_ID('tablename')

Hi all......
I have an issue
There are 2 tables... source and target...
Data from source goes into target table under same field...
ISSUE IS -
Data from 'n' no. of records from source table goes into a single record in the target table with delimiter being a semi colon (;)...
where(n >=2)...
For example - if the source table has 'src1', 'src2' and 'src3' as the data then target table will have a single record with semicolon as delimiter as 'src1;src2;src3'
How do we compare the data under this particular field now...
Do we have to use a if then loop for identifying when the ; ends in target data...
kindly help by giving a example...
Thanks,
Avi.

Hey
I am trying to retieve a value from teh database and add one to it, then update the database with thenew value before redirecting to a page.
I am recieving this error and don't know why, i have the following coed below.
Dim objReaderQ as OleDBDataReader
Dim strSQLRead As String
Dim objCmd As New OleDbCommand
strSQLRead ="Select Quantity from tblCart Where (Productid=" & intProdidHold & ") AND (Cartid='" & strCartid & "')"
objCmd = new OleDbCommand(strSQLRead, objConn)
objReaderQ = objCmd.ExecuteReader()
if objReaderQ.Read()
'update quantity by 1
Dim i as integer
i = objReaderQ("quantity")
i = i + 1
objReaderQ.Close()
Dim strSQLQuantity as String = "INSERT INTO tblCart (Quantity) VALUES (@quantity) WHERE (productid=" & intProdidHold & ") AND (Cartid='" & strCartid & "');"
Dim objCmdQuantity As New OleDbCommand(strSQLQuantity, objConn)
objCmdQuantity.Connection = objConn
objCmdQuantity.Parameters.Add("@quantity", OleDbType.VarChar, 255)
objCmdQuantity.Parameters("@quantity").Value = i
objCmdQuantity.ExecuteNonQuery() ' <--- Error Is Occuring On This Line
Response.Redirect("ViewBasket.aspx")
end if
I really can't see what is wrong as i have placed the semi colon it wanted at the end of the string.
Thanks you for your time

I'm working with an existing program that crafts an insert statement
from user input. The data is machine generated, though, and some
of it has semicolons. How can I "escape" those semicolons so that
I can insert them into the database? Does the ESCAPE key work
with the insert statement, too? Can I just replace the ";" with
some other character(s) to escape it? I'm not finding much in the
online help. Thanks!

Ok, here's my setup. I've got a named instance in a SQL 2000 cluster. I only have dbo rights on my database, because it is a shared infrastructure. Here's my current web.config connection string (the meat, anyway):
When I'm at the office, this is my connection string, pretty normal:
connectionString="Data Source=ServerNameInstanceName;Initial Catalog=blah..."
But, when I connect through the VPN, I can't just connect through the named instance - I have a specific port. This is where things get odd.
First, if I try to connect through SQL Server Management Studio (2005), i get nothing. If I try to connect using "ServerNameInstanceName, (comma) Port Number" it connects, but not to my instance. I get a seperate set of databases that I believe are in the default instance. So, I changed the comma to a semicolon (;) - and it still connected to the same thing - connected to the database, but to the wrong set of databases. So, on a whim, I tried plunking my string, which was now "ServerNameInstanceName;(semicolon) PortNumber" into the SQL 2000 Tools and it worked in both Query Analyzer and in Enterprise Manager. So, I thought, I'll just slam this into my connection string and all will be well. No. I can't use a semicolon in my connection string, and I can't find an escape character to use. Double semicolons don't work, a comma doesn't connect me properly, double colons don't work, the JDBC brackets don't work {} - so I'm at a loss. I'm out of ideas. I've set up aliases, and those don't work earlier.
I'm using ASP.net 2 with VB & C# and Visual Studio 2005 Professional. Thanks for any help anyone can give on this!

Hi, I'd like to know if there's a way to get sql server NOT to ignore the colon when performing a full text search (CONTAINS) for a string "sometext:". At this moment the query works, only the results are not narrowed to the ones containing the specified colon. I've read about this and I saw that these kind of characters (word breakers and stemmers) are ignored and want to know if there's a way to work around this (obviously performing well - so LIKE fails the test). Thanks

This SQL is meant to show the changes that will be made, when removing a selected user's email address from a batch.
However, when executed, each row is duplicated, and in the duplication, the semi-colon or comma isn't removed. For example, if I wanted to remove user "sam@mail.com"
The table results displayed would be:
Row 1:
BatchID: 50
ParamName:EmailTo
ParamValue: jack@mail.com;sam@mail.com;frank@mail.com
NewParamValue: jack@mail.com;frank@mail.com
Row 2:
BatchID: 50
ParamName:EmailTo
ParamValue: jack@mail.com;sam@mail.com;john@mail.com
NewParamValue: jack@mail.com;;frank@mail.com
Ideally, it should only display each row once, and not have the semicolon error. It seems to be a union error, because when I comment out the First and second union statements, it runs fine.
-- Delete email address from a.Batch
IF(@EmailAddress IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
IF(LEN(@EmailAddress) > 0)
BEGIN
IF(@ShowOnly = 1)
[Code] ......

Here's a weird one:
We are setting up a job for the SQL Server Agent via SSMS. The Job Step Type is SSIS.
In the Job Step Properties window, on the Set values tab, you can enter Values to override your package variables - normally all well and good.
However in this particular case, the variable Value contains semicolons ( - it is a Connection String for an ODBC driver. Eg: Driver={Client Access ODBC Driver (32-bit)};system=MYSERVER;...
The behaviour for this Value is weird:
If the Value is not surrounded with double quotes ("), the job fails with "The command line parameters are invalid."
If the Value is surrounded with double quotes ("), the job will run as intended. The catch is: that entry and any subsequent "Set Values" entries disappear next time the Job Step Properties window is opened.
This looks like a bug with the parsing of those strings by the Job Step Properties window?
Or am I missing something?

I am designing a package to export staging tables into a flat file.The names of the tables will be: TableAStaging_YYYYMM and TableBStaging_YYYYMM. As you can see the names of the tables will be changing each month.
The flat files will have similar naming: C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM and C:MyPathFlatFileTableAStaging__YYYYMM.I want to run the package as an sql job in two steps, one for each table.I need to dynamically pass the table names and file names (together with the path) to the IS package.

As part if a recent requirement I have to export Chinese/Singaporean names in a CSV file. The data in the tables is a NVARCHAR(256).
I am using a FlatFile Connection manager where all the present columns from the table are exported as NVARCHARs. My understanding was that the Chinese/Singaporean names would blend seamlessly with NVARCHARs in place. But, they get garbled when pushed to the CSV.
Here is the connection manager setup
There are a lot of suggestions of fixing this by copying/pasting to a notepad file and changing the formatting... But I cant do that since the file is generated using a schedules SSIS package. How can I tweak the process to fix the issue?

I'm going to be setting up DB mirroring between two SQL Server 2005 boxes. Since these are on two different servers, can the instance names be the same? Is there any reason NOT to do so if the mirror server is going to be used exclusively for DB mirroring?
For example: if the my primary DB is located on SERVER1INSTANCE1, can the mirror be SERVER2INSTANCE1 or do the instance names have to be different even though they're on different boxes.
Thanks!

SET PAEMPLOYEE.LOCAT_CODE = EMPLOYEE.PROCESS_LEVEL
FROM
PAEMPLOYEE A
JOIN EMPLOYEE B ON A.EMPLOYEE = B.EMPLOYEE
It's erroring out on the Employee prefix B.EMPLOYEE saying:
..."does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query"
Is it wrong or will it cause problems to have a field name the same as the table name?

Hello there. I'm trying to populate a drop down box with a list of all available instances of SQL server (express or not) available on a network. To list all instances I'm using EnumAvailableServers() in SmoApplication.
The issue is that the Instance column in the returned data table is always empty, and both the Name and the Server columns contain the same string -- the name of the computer the SQL server is installed. Locally I have SSE installed, the instance name is <computer_name>SQLEXPRESS, however, using Smo I can't seem to get to the either full instance name or just the instance name. I can't assume SQLEXPRESS, since there may be more than one installed.
Alternately I used EnumRegisteredServers() in SmoApplication.SqlServerRegistrations and that, while returning instance information (can be retrieved from the RegisteredServer in the returned collection), doesn't always return the remote SQL servers in the list.
Any idea how can this be done? Maybe I'm going at it the wrong way, maybe there's another class / method I need to use to retrieve all instances?
Thank you

I really apprciate any idea's
On extracting ddl's for each object on a separate file in SQL Server?
Something like ddl's for:
procedure1.sql, procedure2.sql.....so on procedure100.sql
onto a file server.
Does SQL Server has any API's like Oracle's dbms_metadata?
Or can we use SQL enterprise manager to do this job?
Thanks, Madhavi.

I am trying to extract just the session id from some iislogs, and was curious the best way to go about doing this. The session ids will all be like "ASP.NET_SessionId=1wtdqn241f0ews55n5hsipib" with 42 chars in length, however the sessionid can be anywhere in the column, sometimes by itself, sometimes at the beginning and sometimes near the end. I guess the best way to do this is search for %ASP.NET_% but im not sure how to pull just the sessionid out.
does anyone know how I should approach this or where this topic has been brought up in the forums so I could get an idea. I tried searching by instr and sessionid and few others.
Thanks

Hey all!
Sorry for the less then descriptive post title but I didn't find a better way to describe it. I'm developing an app in the express editions of VB and SQLserver. The application is a task/resource scheduler. The main form will have a datepicker or weekly overview and show all tasks scheduled per day. The problem is, I've got one or more people assigned to tasks and I wonder what's the best way to design this. Personally, I'd go for one Task table, a People table and a table that provides a link between them (several record per task, one for each person assigned linking TaskID and PplID). However, I don't see a nice way of showing this data to the end user, allowing him to edit/add etc on ONE screen.
To fix that the only way I see is just add columns to the Task table for every person with select boxes. This way everything can be done on one simple screen. This obviously does present some future issues.
On top of this, which people are available on a day varies and there should be an option to allow a user to set who is available on a specific day. Which would lead me to my first idea and add another table that would provide this. but then I'm having design issues again for the form.
I'm kinda stuck atm, can anyone shed some light on this. I'm sure there is an elegant way of doing this but I'm failing at finding it.
Thanks in advance,
Johan
