XML Task && XSLT
Feb 23, 2007Can I use the XML task in SSIS to create an excel document? If so which operation type is best to do it with, XSLT?
I'm trying create excel files dynamically with nothing more than a SQL statement that I'm passing as a variable which generates XML. I would then like to take that variable and combine it with a template and create an excel document. Any help would be appreciated. I do not want to use the data flow because it requires all transformations ahead of time.
Thanks,
Phil

Strip DTD Out; Help With Some XSLT Inside Of SSIS XML Task
Sep 4, 2007I'm reading over this thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1884062&SiteID=1
and I'm kinda lost as to what to do to strip out the dtd from an XML file I am downloading. I do NOT know XSLT and for that reason, I can't follow his logic.
My SSIS package downloads my XML file just fine, now I need to do a strip of the DTD line in my XML Task.
The person who provided the solution in the above post said to do this...
Code Snippet
Operation Type: XSLT
Source Type: Variable
Source: Variable's name containing the xml text
Save Operation Result: True
DestinationType: Variable
OverwriteDestination: True
Destination: Variable's name which is to contain the original xml minus the DTD.
SecondOperandType: Variable
That stuff I understood. I'll replace variables with my files because they are stored that way, but from what I can tell, that's not my problem.
The stuff he says below this comment is going over my head like a ton of bricks. I can't figure out how to do it.
This is the kind of line of my XML that I want to strip out.
https://www.myaddy.com/pbdr.dtd"[]>
and then he said this...
Code Snippet
Since XSL doesn't know about DTDs, telling it to copy everything strips out DTDs. Then use the Variable specified in the Xml task's SecondOperand as the Source data for the xml source.
Code Snippet
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</< FONT>xsl:template>
</< FONT>xsl:stylesheet>
A note on how to paste a multi-line xml document into a Integration Services String variable:
Integration Services String variables textboxes are not multi-line, in the Windows sense of a line (CR+LF),
So, in order to paste multi-line text (which xml docs almost always are), save a temporary copy with a unix line ending.
That is, create an xml file in visual studio, and paste your sample original xml in there. Go to File/Advanced Save options, and save the xml with the the settings of Encoding: Unicode (utf-8 without signature) - CodePage 65001, and most importantly, set the Line endings dropdown to "Unix (LF)".
After selecting "OK", copy and paste the text from Visual Studio's xml file editor into the IS variable, and you'll note all the xml data appears.
So can anyone walk me through a dummies version of what he is suggesting to do?
Thanks,
Keith
Execute Process Task Arguments
Apr 22, 2006We are attempting to use SSIS execute process task.
In a cmd.exe session the executable runs with normal arguments:
mycmd < myscript.txt > foo.txt 2>error.txt
We have attempted to several permutations of this without success. We declared variables and assigned them to stdin, stdout, stderr. However, mycmd opens in the SSIS session as if no arguments have been supplied.
Is there some expression that is required to connect the stdin/out/err variables in the Arguments within Execute Process Task. The help/examples are terse.

Passing Variables As Arguments To Execute Process Task?
Nov 9, 2007I am running my "execute process task" in a foreach loop that uses two variables (file paths) from the recordset that feeds into it.
My executable line looks like this: C:Program FilesWinZipWZZIP.EXE ,
which runs the command line Winzip executable and my argument line looks like this: -rp @ZipArch @ZipTxt.
When I replace the variables with literal strings, the process works (only once, of course).
My Argument won't parse in the expression editor, nor does the process run when embedded in the foreach loop. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.
How To Pass Results Of A SQL FOR XML Query To An XML Task?
Aug 15, 2006How do I pass the results of a sql 'FOR XML' query to an XML Task? I tried using a user variable of type string. In my Exec SQL Task on the General tab I set the ResultType to XML. Then on the Result Set tab I map it (Result 0) to my user variable (string). Then in the XML Task I use that variable as the Source. However, it fails in the Exec Sql Task with error
"End tag 'CustomJob秱孒秱怈пField' does not match the start tag 'CustomJobField'
It looks like some extraneous chars are getting inserted into my tags?
I also tried setting the ResultType to SingleRow but that failed with error:
"The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::ForXmlResult" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. ".
Any ideas? Thanks.
How To Pass A Table Name As A Parmater In SQL Task
Dec 22, 2006I am trying to execute an SQL task in a ForEach container that is the table name for a select statment I want to execute (table name is passed from a rowset created before the ForEach container).
ForEach Container is looping correctly (I've used a watch to make sure each of the table names in the previous rowset are being passed correctly). I want to use the table name to execute the following query:
Select count(*) as TableRowCount from MyLinkedServer...?
(with ? as the table name)
Problem I am having is that the SQL Task Editor keeps placing a space between the last period and the parameter and then telling me it cannot parse the SQL.
I tried:
Declare @SQL varchar(255)
Set @SQL = 'Select count(*) as TableRowCount from MyLinkedServer...' + ?
Exec(@SQL)
Same error as above. My parameter is varTableName
If I used the Declare and hardcode the table name (i.e. MyLinkedServer...MyTable), and it works fine. Just doesn't seem to want to allow the table name as a parameter...
Thoughts, ideas??? Am very new to SQL 2005 but did the above with DTS... Thank you for any assistance...

How Do I Pass A Result Set Into An SQL Task For An Insert?
Feb 19, 2008
Hello,
I am new to SSIS so I'm sure this is easy to do but I can't seem to figure it out. I created a SQL task that creates a result set. I would like to loop through each result of the result set and insert it into another table.
I'm not sure how to map the result set as input to the second SQL task that will do the insert. I can put the variable in the parameter mapping but I don't know what the SQL should look like to insert this into my table. Each row of the result set has five columns. Normally I have something that looks like INSERT...Values(?,?,?,?,?) but because my input parameter is just one result set object this doesn't work.
Help?

How To Pass In The Current Database, Server Name To A Sendmail Task
Sep 28, 2006Hi all--I am writing a DTS package looking to back up all databases in sequence from a specific instance of SQL Server. I am calling CDOSYS in a stored procedure from support.microsoft.com to send email upon failure. I have two types of SQL tasks I am writing into the DTS package:
1. backup database <database> to disk = '<drive>:<path>.bak' with init
2. Upon failure of a particular database to back up to file, execute the following SQL task:
declare @srvname varchar(128),
@db_name varchar(128),
@msg nvarchar(4000)
SELECT @srvname = @@servername
select @db_name = db_name()
set @msg = 'Hi--check your database backups. The ' + @db_name + ' database backup on ' + @srvname + ' has failed.
Thanks--SQL Server';
SELECT @srvname, @db_name, @msg
(Many thanks to Whitney Weaver and SQL_Menace for help with sections of this code)
Upon success of #1 and/or #2, go on to the next database, repeating cycle of the SQL tasks above for the next database in the task. For example, this logic goes like:
1. Back up master database; if fails, send email in SQL task; if either task is successful, goto database #2;
2. Back up model database; ...<etc>.
My problem is the current database set in @db_name. I apparently need to reset this variable for each database that gets backed up, and I can't seem to get these set as values to be passed from SQL Task #1 to SQL Task #2. Any suggestions on how I might achieve this?

How To Pass Command Line Parms To The Execute Package Task
Oct 2, 2006I have a ForEachLoop parent pkg that reads thru the file system of dtsx to be executed.
I would like to pass CLI parms to the command itself (dtexec). I'm not looking at passing values to the child pkgs but rather additional command line values such as:
/CONFIGFILE "C:myconfig.dtsConfig.
In my expression builder for the PackageName I added the additional string but during the execution, the reference to my dtsconfig is ignored without any errors and the child pkg runs using the default values provided at design time.
@[User::PackageToRun] + " /CONFIGFILE C:\myconfig.dtsConfig ".
How does one add additional CL values during the runtime for Execute Package Task?
Thanks,

Displaying Xml With Xslt In RS
Sep 10, 2007
Hi,
I've got an xml and an xslt - I want to get that into reporting services. Right now I have a link to the xml file in a 'report', which will open it correctly and format with the xslt. I'd like it to display without going to an external link.
I know how to use an xml datasource, but I need the xslt applied, since it has some nice formatting in it - so i don't think that will work.
I'm trying to report on the results of a scripted ms baseline security analyzer of several servers - the style sheet lets you drill down and has links to the base reports.
Thanks for your help.

Generate RDL Using XSDObjectGen XSD.EXE XMLTextWriter Or XSLT...
Mar 14, 2006I'm writing some code to generate RDL based on a set of existing tables that define reports. (Headings, columns etc.)
The options I'm exploring so far for doing this are as follows:
Use XMLTextWriter class
Use XMLDocument class
Use XMLSerialiser to serialse a set of classes made with XSD.EXE and
Use XMLSerialiser to serialse a set of classes made with XSDObjectGen
Use XSLT to convert MyReportDefinitionDataset.GetXML into RDL
Has anybody else out there seen other code that does anything like this or in general has any suggestions to help me narrow these options down?
Note:
I am hoping to allow users supplying RDL their own files as templates enabling them to define things like report header and footer etc.
My code will take the Table element from the template RDL and replace it with my generated XML (Headings and columns etc.)
Any suggestions/help/existing sample code appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike G

Problem With Extraction Of A Report In Xml Format Using XSLT
Nov 1, 2007Hi guys,
I have a simple report created with rs2005. I want to get the output exported (using the export options of rs2005) in a specific xml format, so I am using xslt transformation to get it proper.
My problem is that, when I'm doing this using my own machine (SQL Server 2005 32bit installed) everything works OK. BUT when I want to try it on a server that we are supposed to use it gives me a real bad error. On the server, if I have the report without using xslt, it gets exported OK but not in the correct format. I have tested the report on a 32 and on a 64 bit server, I have used either SP1 and SP2 but still can't get through. The error message appearring while I try to export in xml is "Server Error in '/Reports' Application. The XSLT path is invalid. It refers to an external resource, uses invalid syntax, or the XSLT was not found in the catalog."
Has anyone seen something like this before ?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanx in advance

Xslt Filters On Xml Output. Cdata-section-elements And Omit-xml-declaration Problems.
Sep 14, 2006Hi All,
I'm using some xslt documents to transform the xml output of my Reports
but have come across two curiosities where the xslt filter seems to
behave unusually.
Firstly, I need the final saved file to have an xml declaration, which
I believe it should do by default. Even if I put
omit-xml-declaration="no" in the xsl:output tag I don't get an xml
declaration. At present we have a custom job that writes these
declarations back into the xml after SRS has saved it.
Secondly and more importantly, I need to have some of my output tags
wrapped in CDATA sections. I've tried using the cdata-section-elements
attribute, again with no luck.
my XSLT looks something like this (simplified for space)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="utf-8" media-type="text/xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" cdata-section-elements="description"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="Report/table1/Detail_Collection/Detail">
<item>
<description>
<xsl:value-of select="@Description"/>
</description>
</item>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output is something like:
<item>
<description>My first description text...</description>
</item>
<item>
<description>My seconddescription text...</description>
</item>
What I want is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item>
<description><![CDATA[My first description text...]]></description>
</item>
<item>
<description><![CDATA[My secondfirst description text...]]></description>
