we remount archives in special situations to one or more databases.
We'd like our embedded RS reports to be flexible enough to learn at run time which database to use as a source. Are there ways to do this in 2005, 2000 or both?
Greetings,I have an e-timesheet application.i made a function that takes the startdate of the week:public SqlDataReader GetProjectsActive(DateTime SheetDate) { SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["connectionString"]); SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("GetProjectsActive", myConnection); myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter parameterSheetDate = new SqlParameter("@SheetDate", SqlDbType.DateTime); parameterSheetDate.Value = SheetDate; myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterSheetDate); myConnection.Open(); SqlDataReader dr = myCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection); return dr; } i run the application and i pass the value 6/1/2008 (date without time) to the GetProjectsActive but what i notice that the storedprocedure adds the current time to the passsed date when it has been executed so some projects will not appear since the startdate and enddate of the project are only dates so i try this solution: parameterSheetDate.Value = SheetDate.Date;and it works finebut my question why the current time has been added to the storedprocedure automatically although i pass only the date 6/1/2008 date????your help is highly appreciated.Best regards.

I can submit data source as input parameter to dts and using global variable assign it connection data source.
Could it be done at run time ?

I have a simple package, which reads a flat file source, does some transformation, and outputs to a flat file destination. The package runs as a SQL Agent job, so I have the flat file source and OLEDB connection ticked and configured on the data sources tab.
What I would like to do is get hold of the flat file source connection string property from inside the package at run time, and use it to set the flat file destination connection string using property expressions.
The easy option is to set the destination in the agent job, but I'd like to add a date/time stamp to the destination filename.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Greg.
Running SQL 2008. Trying to copy data from one table into another table using SSIS Import/Export Wizard. Now, when I do a straight "Copy data from one or more tables or views", no problems. But when I use the "Write a query to specify the data to transfer", it will not let me get anywhere.
My source table has a field that is setup as "time". It has data, and no problems with the field. I even replicated my destination table structure exactly. But when I try to use the Import & Export wizard, for that one field I get an error stating the source field is unknown and it is labeled as "-1" instead of "time".
I found a couple of of workarounds. One is to cast the source field "time" as "datetime", and then end up with a "datetime2" field in the destination table. Works, but not what I want to store in that field. Second workaround is to use TSQL and use a "INSERT INTO...SELECT...FROM..WHERE.." statement. This works, and gives me the desired results with all data types being same in source and destination, but is a slight pain in the rear end.
I just want the Import & Export wizard to work. It should work. Why doesn't it know what "time" is? I even checked the MSSQLToSSIS10.XML mapping file the wizard is using. This is what it has for "time":
<dtm:DataTypeMapping >
<dtm:SourceDataType>
<dtm:DataTypeName>time</dtm:DataTypeName>
</dtm:SourceDataType>
<dtm:DestinationDataType>

I have three databases which have the identical data structure. When the user runs a report, he has to select a database.
For example, my report query would look like:
Select * from <theDatabase>.dbo.MyTable
How could I assign the value of <theDatabase> at run time depending on what the user selects from the list?
In my datasource, I have only specified the server name and no value for initial catalog.
Hi,
I am using SQL Server2005 for SSIS. I want to change the source connection dynamicaly evertime.
Let me clear, I have to extract some column from excel to MS-Access. I am using Data Flow Task and able to successfully complete the job. But problem is that, whenever a new file comes , i must have to reconfigure my Excel Source.
All the time column in file are same, so no need to worry about mapping but how can my package select a file automatically.
I have a directory, suppose "C:dpak". I should able to pick the filename and sheet name from this directory every time when my package will execute.
I am in between of creating a dynamic SSSIS package which will run for multiple zones having different source connection.My source is in Oracle.I am having 3 DFT with the 3 different source tables.I want to create a package with above DFT dynamically so that my single package can run for the entire zone with dynamically source connection change.I have created a Master table which stores the zone source connection string and zone name. I have 2 different connection.so if in future any new zones come so only newly zone details need to be add in master table without opening the package.

Hi all,
I have created a report in SSRS 2005 which is being viewed by users from different Time Zones.
I have a dataset which has a field of type datetime (UTC). Now I would like to display this Date according to the User Time Zone.
For example if the date is August 07, 2007 10:00 AM UTC,
then I would like to display it as August 07, 2007 03:30 PM IST if the user Time Zone is IST.
Similarly for other Time Zones it should display the time accordingly.
Is this possible in SSRS 2005?
Any pointers will be usefull...
Thanks in advance

I'm getting a "Input string was not in a correct format." when I'm running a insert statement against my SQL Server 2005 db table. This helps me zilch as I cant see the actual SQL statement to see which one wasnt right. Using a SQLDatasource and a Formview btw.
Datasource is called xSqlIB and formview is called fmvIB.
Any ideas?
I want to update a record that has a datetime field in it. But what if there is no parameter given for that field, i.e. what is the correct type/value to pass as parameter?
Example: A DOB field for a user profile, but the user doesn't enter his birthday
This is some example code that I use to update:
Private Sub UpdateDOB(ByVal dob As Date)
Dim parameters As SqlParameter() = { _
New SqlParameter("@Birthday", SqlDbType.DateTime, 8)}
parameters(0).Value = dob
'Run Stored Procedure
This gives me the exception "SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM" when I don't pass a valid date. I tried passing Nothing but same error (in this case it convert dob to "#12:00:00 AM#")
The only thing I can think of is to use Date.MaxValue and then check in application logic, but there must be a better way!

I have tested the following code, and it works for me:
DECLARE @XML XML
SET @XML = '
<DocumentElement>
<data>
<item code="ABCDEFG" quantity="1" sort="0" />
<item code="XCFVGBF" quantity="1" sort="0" />
<item code="ABCDEFG" quantity="10" sort="0" />
</data>
</DocumentElement>'
SELECT SUM(x.qty * ISNULL(p.price_mn,0))
FROM (SELECT [Code] = A.A.value('@code','varchar(20)'),
[Qty] = A.A.value('@quantity','INT')
FROM @xml.nodes('/DocumentElement/data/item') AS A(A)) X
LEFT JOIN productprice_t P ON p.code_id = x.code
The question is, how can I do this if the XML is in a different format & doesn't use any attributes?
So it looks like this (which I'm getting from an ADO.Net datatable using .WriteXML):
<DocumentElement>
<data>
<code>ABCDEFG</mercurycode>
<quantity>1</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>
</data>
<data>
<mercurycode>XCDFEG</mercurycode>
<quantity>2</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>
</data>
<data>
<code>ABCDEFG</mercurycode>
<quantity>10</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>

I have a report in SQL that passes parameters at runtime entered by the user for two date ranges (beginning and ending). I'm trying to write a formula that will print a specific field *only if* the specified date range entered by the user is BETWEEN a specific value (like 200401). This is kind of reverse of a normal WHERE, BETWEEN clause.
I tried a standard BETWEEN predicate in my WHERE clause like:
IF '200401' BETWEEN ?BegPer and ?EndPer then salesanal.ptdbud01 else 0
But, it's returning an error that my Then statement is missing. I can't use a normal statement like 'IF ?BegPer >= '200401' and ?EndPer <= '200401', then.....' because users could enter a RANGE of periods, so it would be difficult to code all of the possible combinations this way. I'm actually doing this in Crystal, but if someone can give me a standard MSSQL example, I can translate that over to Crystal.
Thanks in advance,

I am quite new to SSRS and am having some difficulties in trying to develop a new report via Business Intelligence Studio based on a stored procedure which requires the input of 1 parameter, and also has an optional parameter which I default to NULL in the sproc.
When I create my dataset I select the given sproc I want and when I attempt to execute it, I am prompted for the parameters the sproc expects.
However, when I enter a value in the dialog for the required Parameter I get a SQL error indicating that the parameter the sproc expects was not supplied. I have profiled the call and see the attempt to execute the sproc, but no parameter value.
Can some one tell me why the value I enter is not being passed to the sproc in my database ? Is there some special syntax that I need to use ?
I have scanned a number of sites & through the books I have and can't find anything on this. From what I have read, when I exec my sproc the parameters get recongnized & I can just enter my values. This doesn't seem to be the case.
Any help and/or suggestions are appreciated !!!
Thanks.
I have a requirement where, I need to get the value of parameter from a query string of url and use it in my report.
Ex:- http://www.mysite.com?name=bobby
From the above url, I have to take the value of name and be able to use it in my report query or assign to a parameter.
Please let me know, how can I acheive this.
I have a boolean parameter on my report that the user will enter. Currently, it shows as an option button with True/False beside each option as the words used. Is it possible to have a check box instead of an option button for the user instead?
Thanks in advance!
Hi All,
I have following issue.
Currently, whether values from parameters (there are 20 parameters) passed to one stored procedure will have following script to handle
INSERT INTO log table for all value from TABLEA where ID=@ID
UPDATE TABLEA SET COLUMNA=@COLUMNA and etc,STATUSDATE=getdate() WHERE ID=@ID
However, this creates the problem when the user submit same records, 40 times a day. As a result, statusdate is being updated frequently. This has created the problem in our daily report.
Thus, the user requested to have checking on each column. If any of column has different value, then the update can be done.
what i am thinking at this moment is
BEGIN TRAN
INSERT INTO log table for all value from TABLEA where ID=@ID
INSERT INTO TEMP TABLE (CHANGE_IN_COLUMNA)
UPDATE TABLEA SET COLUMNA=@COLUMNA OUTPUT CASE WHEN DELETED.COLUMNA <> INSERTED.COLUMNA THEN 'YES' ELSE 'NO END and etc,STATUSDATE=getdate() WHERE ID=@ID
IF ANY COLUMN HAS YES VALUE THEN COMMIT TRAN
OTHERWISE ROLLBACK TRAN
Do you think that this is a good solution?
Thanks for the assistance
I have been attempting to build a search engine that searches a database full of invoices. The user will enter in a invoice number and then the results will be returned if the exact invoice exists and if the record belongs to the user.
My first attempt has involved the use of a SQL Datasource to pass a stored procedure based on what is in the search textbox and the information in the cookie about the user. I was hoping that on the btnsearch.click event that I could somehow return the stored procedure in the SQL DataSource. My next step was to make the result (if exists) part of the query string like this:
Response.Redirect("~/Invoice.aspx?Invoice=?"+ SQLRETURNEDVALUE)
I'm looking for any help to a possible way to use my idea or any other ideas to get a invoice number and place it into a query string so that the result can be fetched on the next page. Thanks

I am using two drop downs, like so:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ChurchStateDrop" runat="server" DataSourceID="ChurchStateDropData" DataTextField="State" DataValueField="State" AutoPostBack="True" onselectedindexchanged="ChurchStateDrop_SelectedIndexChanged" AppendDataBoundItems="True"> <asp:ListItem Value="?????"

<asp:DropDownList ID="ChurchCityDrop" runat="server" DataSourceID="ChurchCityDropData" DataTextField="City" DataValueField="City" AutoPostBack="True" onselectedindexchanged="ChurchCityDrop_SelectedIndexChanged" AppendDataBoundItems="True"> <asp:ListItem Value="?????" Selected="True" Text="All Cities" /></asp:DropDownList>
I have ????? in the value fields because I don't know what value needs to be passed to negate filtering (to choose all). The Dropdowns have the following SQLDatasources:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChurchStateDropData" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:tceDatabaseOnlineSQLConnection %>" SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [State] FROM [ChurchView]" DataSourceMode="DataReader"></asp:SqlDataSource>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChurchCityDropData" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:tceDatabaseOnlineSQLConnection %>" SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [City] FROM [ChurchView] WHERE ([State] = @State)" DataSourceMode="DataReader"> <SelectParameters> <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ChurchStateDrop" Name="State" PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="String" /> </SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
Now, lets say I wanted to pass a value to the WHERE statement in ChurchCityDropData to coincide with 'All States', what would I replace value="??????" with? Now you may think I'm crazy to do such a thing, but this actually has to do with adding a Denomination Dropdown to show Denominations from all states or all cities. I will figure out the best logic for that later, I just want to know the wildcard to pass to the parameter to choose all states (negate filtering).
I have a stored proc that has several parameters. (using SQL server)
i call this proc and add the parameters etc and execute it etc

Can one pass the "SQL string" to excute/ create a temp table.... A regular SP requires a specife table name to query from. Is there a way to do this without creating a temp table

I am new to sql and very familiar with access. I am using a verylarge database(130M records) in ms sql2000 and think I need to frontend it with access for reports and forms, etc..I have some questions:1) Is there a way in SQL to prompt a user for input at the running ofa query like the [what is your name] construct in an access query?2) I can't seem to create calculated fields in a view in sql. Inaccess I put "total:=hours*rate" and a new column would be createdwhich would contain the total.3) I normally would create a form in access from which the accessqueries would pull their variables and then insert those variables inthe queries or reports, etc. How would this be accomplished usingsql.4) Lastly and probably most basic. How does a "real" sql developercreate reports and forms to interact with the enduser? I am usingaccess as a front end, but am open to suggestions.Thanks,Brad
