I am interested in storing millions of documents in a database. It appears that Oracle has a better selection of document management tools including a search engine than does SQL 7.
Any comments, suggestions, reviews, and/or white papers regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated.
I have a client that would like to archive all of the documents .word, .xls, .pdf, .jpg, email coorespondance, etc. into some sort of database so in the near future when the project starts up again all of the information is in a clear consise format. I was hoping that this forum could provide some guidance in selecting a software package and a discussion on how to proceed.
I have 6 gigs of documents in a folder on our server. I was planning on delivering the organized data on a external hard drive after putting the data into some sort of database. I would like to include metadata about each particular document. like who created the document, Key words about the document's purpose, time frame the document is revelant for, and so on.
I would like to use a database structure and possibly hot link the document to the DB. I would like to use xml (if possible) for the metadata.
any help is greatly appreciated on this I can be reached at
Hello,I work for an attorney staff, so basically the whole day they aresending themselves a lot and a lot of papers (Word docs or Excellsheets).We are going to propose them the use of a Document Exchange andDatabase System (like Lotus Notes or Oracle Managment Content,formerly known as Internet File System IFS ) with .NET interfazes.Basically the idea is that instead of sending papers the whole day,they can use a software to check and manage more quickly theirdocuments.We are looking for a system that allows us to manage:- Security- Versioning- Folders- Check-in/Check-out- Workflow- Search and Retrieval- Extensible MetadataMy question is:1) Is there any Microsoft tool who can help us to achieve that(management of codes, dates, text, names of documents- I mean like aDocument Exchange and Database System) with .NET interface?2) Or do we have to built it from scratch?Thank you very much!Jorge
I have an issue using parameterised reports connecting to Oracle using "ODBC" and "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" using parameteried reports. The following error is generated "ORA-01008 not all variables bound (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle)" and a similiar one for ODBC. It works fine for simple reports. Do these 2 drivers have issues passing parameters for a remote Oracle query? Thanks.
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204018 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------ BUTTONS:
OK ------------------------------ For most of my queries to Oracle I can cast the columns to get rid of the error (CAST x AS DECIMAL(10) etc), but this does not work for:
1) Union
I have a select like "SELECT NVL(myColumn, 0) .... FROM myTable UNION SELECT 0 AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL"
Even if I cast the columns in both selects (SELECT CAST(NVL(myColumn, 0) AS DECIMAL(10, 0) .... UNION SELECT CAST(0 AS DECIMAL(10, 0)) AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL) I still get the error above.
2) SQL command from variable
The select basically looks like this:
"SELECT Column1, Column2, ... FROM myTable WHERE Updated BETWEEN User::LastLoad AND User::CurrentLoad"
Again, even if I cast all columns (like in the union), I still get the same error.
we recently got a scenario that we need to get the data from oracle tables which is installed on third party servers. we have sqlserver installed on ourservers. so they have created a DBLINK in oracle server to our sqlserver and published the DBLINK name.
what are the next steps that i need to follow on my sqlserver in order to access the oracle tables ?
On my dev server I have working ssis packages that use connections Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle MSDAORA.1 and Oracle provider for oledb and OracleClient data provider.
I use one or the other according to my needs.
In anticipation and to prepare for the build of a new production server, I have build a test server from scratch and deployed to it the entire dev.
Almost everything works except Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle.
ssis packages on the test machine will return an error
Error at Pull Calendar from One [OLE DB Source [1]]: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "one.oledb" failed with error code 0xC0202009.
Error at Pull Calendar from One [DTS.Pipeline]: component "OLE DB Source" (1) failed validation and returned error code 0xC020801C.
[Connection manager "one.oledb"]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Oracle error occurred, but error message could not be retrieved from Oracle.".
I have used the same installers for OS, SQL and Oracle SQL*Net on both dev and test machines. The install and then the restore/deployment on Test went fine.
Does anyone could point me to the right direction to solve this issue?

I've been searching for a solution for this for a week-ish, so I thought I would post my quesiton directly. Here is my scenario..
Source: MS SQL Server
Destination: Oracle 10g
The destination table has a partition set on a column called "DATE_HIGH". How do I populate this date high column in my package? Currently I just have a source object, and a destination object, but I'm unclear how to populate this field in the destination. I've read one blog that states "use OLE DB Command" - but that isn't enough information for me to implement - Can someone be more specific in these steps? Here is an example of what my newb-ness needs to understand
OLE DB Source (Select * from Table) ---> OLE DB Command (What query goes here?) --> OLE DB Destination.
Second part of my question: There is a second column called "ROW_NUM" and there is an Oracle Sequence provided to me... What objects do I need (Source, Destination, OLE DB Command etc...) and how do I call this sequence to populate on the fly as I'm loading data from my source?
If these are simple questions - my appologies, I am new to the product.
I have designed a DTS package which will migrate a view from Sqlserver 2000 to Oracle.My package is using Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle driver for connecting to oracle.Im able to execute this package on the my system ie on the system where sqlclient is installed(Oracle client is also installed on my machine) .But when im doing it on the server im not able to do it.The Connection to Oracle Fails. I wanted to know in order to connect to Oracle from the server,is it necessary that Oracle has to be installed on the server?.If yes, is it enough if i install oracle client on the server or Oracle Server version has to be installed on Server.

I have the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider installed to the (C:oraclexe) directory.
I am having problems querying from linked oracle server. When i setup oracle as a linked server and purposely enter an incorrect password the query i run tells me i have an incorrect password. So it at least knows that. when i set the correct password and run a query I get this error:
(i replaced the real server name with "someServer".)

The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.
need a clue about how to migrate the data from an Oracle applications 11.03 and underlying Oracle 8.05 database to navision 4.0 running sql server 2000
My application which ran perfectly well yesterday suddenly stopped working in this morning with following error message. I didn't change anything, at least I believe. Interesting thing is that I don't use any Oracle connection but connects to MS SQL Server 2005 Express version locally. Error messages are different according to the connection string though I don't think it makes difference: ConnectionString = <add key="Databasehandtool1" value="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=handtool;SSPI=true" />ErrorMessage from VS2008 ="Unable to get records. Object reference not set to an instance of an object." ConnectionString = <add key="Databasehandtool1" value="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=handtool;User Id=handtool_DB;Password=mypassword" />ErrorMessage from VS2008 = "Unable to get records. Unable to connect to database. ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified." By the way, the application was generated from IronSpeed 5.1 Enterprise. My development environment is : VS2008, SQL2005 EXPRESS, Windows XP SP2, ASP.NET 2.0 We have actually an Oracle server in the network though. My gut feeling is that something might have changed in my network server during the night but how come it can possibly affect my application running on my local PC. I checked the connection of local SQL Express Server from SQL Server Management Studio and it connected well with UserID=handtoo_DB and showed all tables and stored procedures required for the application. So there is no problem in SQL Server database side. I would welcome and appreciate any input. fudata
This might seems a little 'out there', but has anyone tried doing ETL from an Oracle 10g ODS into an Oracle 10g DW, and from there into SSAS2005 cubes?
I have a matrix table which has two groups in the columns
I am trying to create a multileveled document map which i have succeed by
1. Edit Group 1 properties and setting the document map properties to the name of the field 2. Edit Group 2 properties and setting the document map properties to the name of this field and making the parent group the name of Group 1
The document map appears with the correct groups and name , however when I click on the values it doesnt take me to any where !!! It refreshes the screen but it doesnt go anywhere !
Can someone please help me troubleshoot this or know what i may be missing
When i publish a report to our reporting services site, it comes with a document map that I cannot seem to get rid of and is really annoyong to users. How do I stop this from happening and appearing?
Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am developing a document storage application for an intranet that will store various Word, Excel, and PDF documents. Most of the examples I see utilize SQL Server and an image field rather than the FileSystem Object to store documents. My concern with this method is that some of the documents may be several hundred pages (not exactly sure of the actual file size yet, but they must be fairly large). My question is, where does the use of SQL Server become impractical for this type of application? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Has anyone seen this white paper below? If yes, can someone point me to the right direction. I can`t find it anywhere in the msdn.microsoft.com/developers. I got this info from the Winnt mag.

I have a database which stores documents (e.g. policies and guidelines)in our content management system. The follow relationships exist:Documents (1-to-Many) LinkTableKeywordLink (Many-to-1) KeywordsDocuments (1-to-Many) LinkTableAttachments (Many-to-1) AttachmentsDocuments (1-to-Many) LookUpSubjectsDocuments (1-to-Many) LookUpDocTypeWhen the user conducts a search I want the SQL to check if the stringthey enter is present in:* the Title, Author, Summary fields of Documents OR* the Title or Path of the Attachments* the Keywords that are links OR* the Subject that is linked OR* the DocType that is linked.Is this possible in one SQL query. I have tried the following:SELECT DISTINCT Documents.Document, Documents.Title,PriorityFROM Documents,Attachments,Keywords,LinkTableAttachments,LinkTabl eKeywordLinkWHERE((Documents.Document=LinkTableAttachments.Document ID andLinkTableAttachments.AttachmentID=Attachments.Id) OR(Documents.Document=LinkTableKeywordLink.DocumentI D andLinkTableKeywordLink.KeywordID=Keywords.Id))AND (Documents.Title Like '%SEARCHSTRING%' OR Documents.Author Like'%SEARCHSTRING%' OR Documents.Summary Like '%SEARCHSTRING%' ORKeywords.Keyword Like '%SEARCHSTRING%' OR DocType.DocType Like'%SEARCHSTRING%' OR Attachments.AttachmentTitle Like '%SEARCHSTRING%'OR Attachments.Path like '%SEARCHSTRING%' or Subjects.Subject Like'%SEARCHSTRING%')AND StartDate<=getDate() and ReviewDate>getDate() order by Titlebut this causes, perhaps understandably, a timeout error.Any thoughts?Thanks!Steve
Hi,I need deep knowledge about DTS tasks. Can anyone send me an e-book orrelated document about DTS packages. (Links on the Internet site aregenerally advertisement or not working links).Thanks,Veysel Can Demir
I have a Report that has a document map Label in the Report which I need to remove. However as the report has over 50 text-boxes I am having difficulty locating it. I have had a look at the XML but that does not seem to indicate the offending text box. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I have a report with a document map and when I run the report through IE 7.0, the Document Map is blank. Running that same report through IE 6.0 and it is fine.
Both instances are run against the same server via Report Viewer so there is no difference other than the client IE version.
Besides reports we also have some documents that have been uploaded to Report Manager. Is there a way that we could set a subscription for a document? I currently do not see one.
