I have an XSLT transform that works perfectly using the msxsl.exe utility.
When the same XSL file is run through an SSIS XML transform, the character spacing and carriage returns embedded in the XSL templates are mostly (but not completely) dropped.
Any comments on why SSIS is behaving differently than msxsl.exe? What to do?
Thanks in advance,
Richard
I want to delete and recreate the master Database Device for purpose of shrinking the size of the device .
I dont want to loose the Master db.
I thought of transfering the Master db to a different device,
Delete and recreate the master device and then tranfer back the master db .
and this is all done through the MS SQL enterprise Manager (SQL 6.5 )
Is this the safest eay to proceed with this task?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Can 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
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.

Hi,
I've a xml file and I want to substitute some of the values from database in this xml using XSLT transformation making use of XML task. How can this be achieved?
Thanks
I'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
In the XML Task if you set the OperationType to XSLT, how do you pass arguments to the Transform like you would in .Net by using the XsltArgumentList class? Thanks.

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="/">

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
Hi 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

View 10 Replies View RelatedHi 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>
</item>
All help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks - Andrew.
I need to convert an xml file that has an attribute(name). This xml file has to be converted using xsl into the XSLT file such that the tag should have the same structure along with it and its the tag-content also should be the value of the attribute.

Is there a way we can prevent a object owner from dropping his tables. Example:
There is a user called 'tom' who is given create table permissions, 'tom' creates the table completes his dev and then the table is moved into production where 'tom' is still the owner. However, in production, 'tom' does not have the create table privs. Because 'tom' is the owner of the table, he is still able to drop the table in production. This is what I am trying to avoid. I would like to retain 'tom' as the owner and want to take away his create/drop privs.

Looking for suggestions.
I have a database that is giving me a bad Index error. When I go to drop the necessary Index it is telling me that it either does not exist or cannot be dropped. However when I try to build that index, it tells me one already exists.
Is there any way to drop all of the indexes or at the very least see what the indexes are? This particular database is using 2005 Express.
Any help would be great!

How to remove the constraints on a table in sql server 2000? I need to drop the column, so i need to drop the constraint before that.
Alter Table Table_Name NO CHECK constraints ALL.
Once I execute the above one, it says, "Successfully Executed" but when I try to drop it doesnt allow me and gives me the following error:

The object 'DF_Users_Created_by' is dependent on column 'CREATED_BY'.

ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN CREATED_BY failed because one or more objects access this column.
Any ideas?

Hi:
I think I am doing something wrong. I am trying to make the trigger fire when I want to drop the same trigger. For example I have the following trigger defined:
USE AdventureWorks2000
GO
CREATE TRIGGER Incheckstock
ON DATABASE
FOR DROP_TRIGGER
AS
PRINT 'You must disable Trigger "Incheckstock" to drop Trigger!'
ROLLBACK
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
ENABLE TRIGGER Incheckstock ON DATABASE
DROP TRIGGER Incheckstock
ON DATABASE
I created the trigger Incheckstock and i want to see if the same trigger fires itself if when i am trying to drop the trigger with the same name (kind of recursive one). Is this possible in SQL 2005?. If I asked a dumb question, please correct me.
Thanks
