uslid and groupid,
uslid1, group1
uslid1, group2

We use an internal tool that can display ASP pages. I would like to use SQL Reporting Services to create reports in ASP format. The ASP page will access the database to get data. Is this possible possible with Reporting Services?

I have an access table that has a primary key (entitled "ID Number"), no duplicates, the field is an integer.And, importantly, the value is set to "increment".The format is "phd"000 - so it starts out phd001, phd002, and so on...How to do this in an SQL table? Can that format be done? Or is it better not to do it via SQL but in coding instead?

I see this all over for creating a Format file:
bcp Northwind.dbo.Products format nul -c -f "c:Products.fmt" -T
Or this for XML
bcp AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Department format nul -c -x -f department.xml -T -S servername
I get an error saying "cannot open a connection to SQL SERVER"
The SQL Server is local on my laptop.
Here is the exact code I am using:
bcp OrderDb.CompanyDepartment foramt nul -c -x -f c:CompanyDepartment.fmt -t, -T
And I have tried :
bcp OrderDb.CompanyDepartment foramt nul -c -x -f c:CompanyDepartment.xml -t, -T
Also, some say to put the server name at the end, but then I get an unknown argument on command line error

We are using an old version of Numara TrackIT for our helpdesk software, and it doesn't have much in the way of configurable options. There is no way to set validation or formatting on the text fields in the program.
There is a field, WO_TEXT1, Which I would like to be formatted as 6 characters, 3 integers + a period + 2 integers. The first the integers would be padded with zeros on the left, and the last 2 integers would be padded with zeros on the right.
IE, if someone enters 2, it would actually end up being 002.00
If someone enters 3.5 it would end up being 003.50
If someone enters 12.1 it would end up being 012.10
If someone enters 172.80 it would end up being 172.80
I was hoping to achieve this via an update trigger.
Below is the guts of the trigger I created, mostly as a proof of concept.
-- This update properly formats the Estimated Hours field
Update t SET WO_TEXT1 = (SELECT RIGHT('000000' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(6), WO_TEXT1), 6) FROM inserted)
FROM dbo.TASKS as t
Where (EXISTS (SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE WOID = 24773));
I expected that this update trigger would only affect the Work Order with a WOID of 24773. Unfortunately, it updated all 21000 work orders in our system, wiping out all of the actual estimated hours that had been inserted by technicians!
Luckily I had a report that I could quick dump the 300 or so active work order's estimated hours back into the DB from (all the other Work orders are closed, and no one really cares about their estimated hours).
My question is three fold,
1) Why did my trigger update every record in the tasks table instead of just WO 24773?
2) Is using a trigger the best way of accomplishing what I'm trying to do?
3) if a trigger is the best way of accomplishing this, what should my trigger look like?

Hello,
I need to create about 1,000 (literately) Excel files that each contain 5 tabs. The data being placed on the tabs will always be the same (meaning the columns are static).
I am fairly advanced at Excel VBA so I can write code that does all the following in Excel (looped 1,000 times):
Open an Excel template
Bring data in from the tables
Filter, then copy-paste the appropriate rows into each tab.
Save the new Excel file.
Email the file to appropriate individual (it is a Microsoft Exchange Server).
As I started this in VBA, I thought that I might be able to do it with SSIS. My concern is I need to have the rows formatted (font, border, etc.) and the number of rows change.
My questions are:
Is it possible to format Excel with SSIS?
Can I email the files even if it is not with an SMTP protocol?
Would SSIS process this data faster then Excel?
Does this approach even make sense? Am I better just doing it with VBA?
Thank you for the help.

I'm trying to create a variable for use in a DTS job for yesterday's date in the string format YYYYMMDD for use in pulling yesterday's material transactions from my ERP system. I've got the Query statement created and working fine, but I have to manually go into the DTS job and insert the proper date manually. I'm looking into an Active-X script inserted into the workflow for the job to create a global variable, but I can't seem to come up with anything that works.
Any help or direction would be appreciated.
Thanx in advance!!

We have one table where we store all documents in one of the column called "Doc" with varbinary(max) data type.
We want to download those documents from sql table to windows explorer and i wrote BCP in sql 2005. And things were fine.
The format file I used there looks like this,
9.0
1
1 SQLBINARY 0 0 "" 1 Doc ""
Now we are in 2014 and when I try the same code with same format file, it hangs in the middle. So I changed the file to 12.0 instead of 9.0 but still not working.

I'm using SSIS to do bulk inserts from fixed width files to about 20 tables in my SQL database.
The problem I'm running into is in creating Format Files for the bulk insert task to use. I've gotten the bcp command to create format files that will read csv files, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it to create one for fixed-width.
I know it can be done: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191234.aspx
At the bottom (Section F) it shows an XML format file for reading a fixed-width file. When I manually create one of these to match one of my tables, the bulk insert worked fine.
Closest I've come is with this ( [] bracketed items are correct values, just censored here):
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinn>bcp [database].[owner].[table] format
nul -c -f C:TableFMT.xml -x -S[Server] -U[Username] -P[Password]
My question is, what is the bcp command to create this sort of XML format file?

Hello all,
Please help....
I have a text file which needs to be created into a table (let's call it DataFile table). For now I'm just doing the manual DTS to import the txt into SQL server to create the table, which works. But here's my problem....
I need to extract data from DataFile table, here's my query:
select * from dbo.DataFile
where DF_SC_Case_Nbr not like '0000%';
Then I need to create a new table for the extracted data, let's call it ExtractedDataFile. But I don't know how to create a new table and insert the data I selected above into the new one.
Also, can the extraction and the creation of new table be done in just one stored procedure? or is there any other way of doing all this (including the importation of the text file)?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
How to create a text file in UNIX format using Flat File connection manager. By default when we create a connection manager for flat files it is taking "CRLF" as the delimeter.
I beleive the format of the file will be decided based on the control line feed character at the end of each row. There are different control line feeds for different operating systems.
CR - Mac OS (Carraige return)
LF - UNIX (Line Feed)
CRLF - Windows. (Carriage return Line Feed)
Correct me if i am wrong.
Thanks in advance.

I have some code that dynamically creates a database (name is @FullName) andthen creates a table within that database. Is it possible to wrap thesethings into a transaction such that if any one of the following fails, thedatabase "creation" is rolledback. Otherwise, I would try deleting on errordetection, but it could get messy.IF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'CREATE DATABASE ' + @FullNameEXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorENDIF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @FullName + '.[dbo].[Image] ( [ID][int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL, [Blob] [image] NULL , [DateAdded] [datetime]NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]'EXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorENDIF @Error = 0BEGINSET @ExecString = 'ALTER TABLE ' + @FullName + '.[dbo].[Image] WITHNOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [PK_Image] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [ID] ) ON[PRIMARY]'EXEC sp_executesql @ExecStringSET @Error = @@ErrorEND

For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

Hi Minor and inconsequential but sometimes you just gotta know: Is it possible to define a non-primary key index within a Create Table statement? I can create a constraint and a PK. I can create the table and then add the index. I just wondered if you can do it in one statement. e.g. I have: CREATE TABLE MyT (MyT_ID INT Identity(1, 1) CONSTRAINT MyT_PK PRIMARY KEY Clustered, MyT_Desc Char(40) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT MyT_idx1 UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED ON [DEFAULT])which creates a table with a PK and unique constraint. I would like (pseudo SQL):CREATE TABLE MyT (MyT_ID INT Identity(1, 1) CONSTRAINT MyT_PK PRIMARY KEY Clustered, MyT_Desc Char(40) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT MyT_idx1 UNIQUE INDEX NONCLUSTERED ON [DEFAULT]) No big deal - just curious :D Once I know I can stop scouring BOL for clues. Tks in advance

i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?
--create the procedure and insert into the temp table without creating it.
--no compilation error.
CREATE PROC testTemp

BEGIN
INSERT INTO #tmp(dt)
SELECT GETDATE()
END
only on calling the proc does this give an execution error

Hi all,
I have SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMS Express) and SQL Server 2005 Express (SS Express) installed in my Windows XP Pro PC that is on Microsoft Windows NT 4 LAN System. My Computer Administrator grants me the Administror Privilege to use my PC. I tried to use SQLQuery.sql (see the code below) to create a table "LabResults" and insert 20 data (values) into the table. I got Error Messages 102 and 156 when I did "Parse" or "Execute". This is my first time to apply the data type 'decimal' and the "VALUES" into the table. I do not know what is wrong with the 'decimal' and how to add the "VALUES": (1) Do I put the precision and scale of the decimal wrong? (2) Do I have to use "GO" after each "VALUES"? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely,
Bryan Ax

I am trying to create a new mining structure with case table and nested table, the case table (fact table) has alread defined the relationships with the nested table(dimension table), and I can see their relationship from the data source view. But why the wizard for creating the new mining structure showed that message? Why is that? And what could I try to fix it?
Hope it is clear for your help.
Thanks a lot for your kind advices and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.

Hello,
I'd like to create a temporary table with the same schema as an exiting table. How can I do this without hard coding the column definitions into the temporary table definition?
I'd like to do something like:
CREATE TABLE #tempTable LIKE anotherTable
..instead of...
CREATE TABLE #tempTable (id INT PRIMARY KEY, created DATETIME NULL etc...
I'm sure there must be a simple way to do this!
Many thanks,
Ben S
