Hello all! I have a dts package exporting a text file. I would like for the dts job to append to the end of the file each time it is ran, rather than overwriting it. Is there a simple solution for this?
I am trying to append the current row ID to a string I am trying to insert via a sproc. I have retrieved the @@Identity and I am passing it into a class with a parameter and calling it using:
Listings.UpdateDB AddNewListing = new Listings.UpdateDB();
DTS wizard is not allowing me to append the data to a text file. Every time I run DTS and choose the destination to be this text file (say A.txt), it overwrites the data. I have a table whose data I am dumping to a text file. I truncate the table, then get the data again into it and want to append it to the same text file. But I end up overwriting the text file with the new data.
I have subscription records for five different magazine titles that i process by looping each one though a dataflow using a for-each loop. I am using the following instructions to append to the raw file: http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/12/01/2443.aspx
This works fine when I pass four different magazine titles. when i try to run all of the titles(five), i get the following errors:
[Raw File Destination [131195]] Warning: The parameter is incorrect. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "Raw File Destination" (131195) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0x80070057.
I am having a problem with a DTS package I am writing. The package is getting text from a table and putting it out to a text file. I have most of it sorted, and contains text like this: PN,GEN,T_KI-3,2006-01-24 00:30,480,2006-01-24 01:00,480 PN,GEN,T_KI-2,2006-01-24 00:40,484,2006-01-24 02:00,482 PN,GEN,T_KI-3,2006-01-24 00:50,490,2006-01-24 05:00,486 What I need is a line at the end of the text which is: <EOF>
So the output from this will look like: PN,GEN,T_KI-3,2006-01-24 00:30,480,2006-01-24 01:00,480 PN,GEN,T_KI-2,2006-01-24 00:40,484,2006-01-24 02:00,482 PN,GEN,T_KI-3,2006-01-24 00:50,490,2006-01-24 05:00,486 <EOF>
I am having problems adding the line at the end of the text file. Can anyone advice me of a good solution or show me where I amn going wrong?
I created a ssis package which exports the data from oledb source to flat file (csv format). For this i have OLEDB source and Flat File as destination. I generate the file and filename dynamically with the column names in the first row. So if the dynamically generated file name already exists , then i want to append the data in the same existing file. But I dont want to append the column names again. I just want to append the rows to the existing rows.
so lets say first time i generate a file called File1_3132008.csv.
Col1, Col2 1,2 3,4
After some days if my ssis package generates the same file name i.e. File1_3132008.csv, this time i just want to append the rows to the existing file. So the file should look like this- Col1, Col21,23,45,67,8
But instead my file looks like this if i set Overwrite propery to false
Col1,Col2 1,2 3,4 Col1,Col2 5,6 7,8
Can anyone help me to get the file as shown in the highlighed
My customer got a total hard drive failure.After sending it to drive recovery specialist we were able to recover the LDF log file (MyDB_0.LDF).But the MDF file was completely destroyed (MyDB.MDF).They have a good full backup from a month ago.
1) Installed SQL Server 2012 on a new PC 2) Created a new database of same name (MyDB) - with same MDF and LDF file names as original 3) Took the new database offline 4) deleted the MDF and LDF files of the new database 5) put "MyDB_0.LDF" in the place of the LDF file I just deleted 6) put the database back on-line 7) after hitting F5 to refresh databases - it shows "MyDB (Recovery Pending)" 8) tried to do Tail Log Backup with this command BACKUP LOG [MyDB] TO DISK = N'C:BACKUPMyDB_TailLog.bak' WITH NO_TRUNCATE
And I get this error...
Msg 3447, Level 16, State 1, Line 3 Could not activate or scan all of the log files for database 'MyDB'.
The sad thing is I know we can get this data back using ApexSQL-Log. I can see all the transactions since the last full backup in this program - so the log file is not damaged. But my client doesn't want to pay the $2000 fee for this software.There has to be a way to restore this data, without having to purchase a third party tool.
I have a database data file almost at 2tb maxing out a windows drive. Only 16gb left. Should I just add another data file on another Windows drive for growth? Or just move current huge data file to a new GPT drive? Or do both adding another data file and moving existing to its own new GPT drive?
After I watch a video for how to create MS SQL Replication, I configure distribution and create the publication. The problem comes from subscription. If I create a "PUSH" subscription, it works fine. However, when I create a "PULL" subscription, I got the following error. Where I should look for solution for this error.
We have a Job that calls a SSIS package 2005 that does some processing and execute a BAT file. This Job is being called by a web application.The BAT file creates a folder and named it based on the current date ( YYYY_MM) e.g 2015_07
It was working okay in the SQL Agent 2005 server until we moved to the new server SQL Agent 2012 using the same package SSIS package 2005. Now the issue is, instead of creating the folder based on YYYY_MM, it's now being created as YYYY_DD.I've checked the Regional settings of both server and they have the same "ENGLISH (United States) format. I even ran the code below and they're returning the same output echo %date:~ 10,4%_% date :~4,2%
I know the BAT file can be improved by not depending current locale in WINDOWS, but I just want to understand how this issue occurs and how does the regional setting being overridden?
I've this query SELECT t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time, t1.VALUE FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
Let's say, current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045 So, i will get ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value -------------------------------------------------- 204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90 205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99 206 | 8/1/2005| 1950 | 88 ... ... 207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77 208 | 8/7/2005| 2255 | 77 209 | 8/7/2005| 2140 | 77
Can someone can show me to filter data between t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND TIME>=CurrentTime t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) AND TIME<=CurrentTime
If current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045, so the result shown as follow
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value -------------------------------------------------- 204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90 205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99 ... ... 207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
I only have this query, SELECT t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time, t1.VALUE FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
Is the merge method, what will work in this case ? I have two datatables with the exact same structure. How can I append the rows from table 2 onto the bottom of table 1 ? Is looping through the rows collection the only way ?
I know this must be simple, but I am stumpped, please help!
I am writing a stored procedure in SQL 2000 where an incomming variable is a string of characters (a couple of sentences) and I want to add that to the existing string of characters in a table field called "Comments".
I do not know how to append the text in a field. How is that best done?
The basic function of the procedure is to take whatever string is passed to it and append it to the current contents of the field "Comments". As the procedure is ran over and over again, the field is constantly appended with the incomming text.
What is the best way to do this? Can anyone give me an example?

I have two tables that have the same column names, data type and length in each. The only difference is that one is the USA ( COUNTRY) and the other is International ( COUNTRY ). I want to make these two tables into one table. I don't think that a "UNION" will do that on a permanent basis. What other options do I have?
I installed sql 2005 a while back. Then I recently found out my file system was fat32 (I don't understand why the hardware people did this...) and I had to convert to NTFS. Naturally the sql service no longer worked so I uninstalled inorder to reinstall now I can't reinstall it I keep getting this message
native_error=5039, msg=[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size.
We're running SQL 6.5 SP3, we recycle our SQL server every day, somehow starting last December, the errorlog kept appending to the previous one without starting a new log, and it keeps on growing, any one knows anywhere I should look into ? If SQL behaves properly, it should starts a new log after each recycle. I checked from Technet this problem may occur in 4.2 but I haven't seen anything in 6.5....Thanks Anthony
I need to make sure I'm doing this correctly can you help me out guys please?? This is an Appending Stored procedure it should move values from the EmployeeGamingLicense table when the status is turned into TERMINATED to the GCEmployeeTerms table. Heres what I have so far, having problems with the rest of the script getting errors
AS INSERT INTO [CommissionEmployee_Exclusionsdb].[dbo].[GCEmployeeTerms] ( [TM #], [FirstName], [LastName], [SocialSecurityNumber], [DateHired], [Status], [TerminationDate], [Title], [DepartmentName], [TermReason], [VoluntaryInvoluntary])

When I create a db backup on our network using BACKUP DATABASE...
BACKUP DATABASE [TKKCommonData] TO DISK = N'G:SQL_BACKUPSTKKCommonDataTKKCommonData_DATA.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'TKKCommonData_DATA-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
I've specified the NOINIT so that it appends rather than overwrites the database, however the database is still overwritten. Any idea how to get the database to backup and append to the set rather than overwrite the backup ?
Currently I have a maintenance plan running a Full backup weekly, differential backups nightly, and log backups hourly. The log backups are all going into a single backup file - but it's hard to see what's going on behind the scenes here.
Does this file get 'reset' when the full backup is performed? Will it just keep growing indefinitely and should I be creating new files for each log backup, or manually deleting the file each week during the full backup task?
(SQL 7 on NT Server) I want to append a table with 1200 rows, using DTS. While I know it is better to do while no one is using the database, exactly what impact will it have if I do this while the database is online? Which leads me to my next question: Exactly what operations can I do while the db is online, and what ones should I not even think of. Most of my needs are data imports and exports. I haven't found much in Online Books about this. Any help would be appreciated very much.
unfortunaly i have two tables where usernames are stored. in the one table the column is called 'remote_U' in the other 'remote_u' ... note the upper case
so want to generate listof all usernames and retrieve them in a single a column.
like SELECT DISTINCT remote_U FROM table1 APPEND (SELECT DISTINCT remote_u FROM table 2)
i have tried joins and groups, but is not working. can i also do an alphabetical order after appending the second select? distinct is needed, 'cos one user may have more then one entry in the table, but may be also in both tables ....
I would like to update a field that already has data in it and I dont' want to overwrite the existing text. Here is my existing statement
UPDATE wr SET cf_notes = " + tmp_array(24) + " WHERE wr_id = " + data_temp(0)
I would like to add cf_notes + tmp_array(24) to cf_notes. Is this possible in SQL? If so, what is the correct syntax. I have tried 6 different statements and I get a compile error on every statement.
Hey All, I am currently backing up a SQL 2000 Database by doing full backups everynight. I would like to cut this back to once a week and do differential backups during the week. BUT... How can I do differential backups without appending or overwriting the night befores backup? I'm sure this can be done through command line but im not exactly sure of the process. If anyone can help please post...
Now I want to create usernames from #test1 by considering first character of first name and last name and if same combination found then append with 01.
Example if #test1 contains data as below:
1,Abhas, Pawar 2, Arun, Pawar 3, Ashis, Panday
Then i want to create username like:
apawar apawar01 apanday02
but if same username exists in #test2 then i want to inser records as below:
first apawar will check in #test2, if not exists insert as it is:
if apawar01 exists in #test2 then, cretae apawar02 instead of apawar01
for next create apawar03 and insert and so on...
In brief I want to check created username eith #table2 and if same exists then first check if lower value available if not then create with lower value and insert.
