Invisible Components
Aug 10, 2007I am not sure why when the packages are run, the components dissapear. The only thing I see is the result in the output.
So there is no visual on the tabs.

Developing Custom Components By Extending The SSIS Stock Data Flow Components
Sep 7, 2006Everything I've read says that custom data flow components are built by inheriting from the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.PipelineComponent class.
But the stock components such as the Derived Column data flow transformation must each be implemented by their own class. So how do I base my custom components on those classes? The documentation for the PipelineComponent class doesn't list any such subclasses.
Using Composition To Create New Specialised Components From Multiple Sub-components?
Jun 30, 2006Hi,
In another thread Jamie Thomson very informatively said "The components in SSIS
are deliberately atomic (i.e. they do something very specific) so that
its easy to put them together to build something greater than the sum
of the parts". Which does make a lot of sense. However, I've been finding that I end up having to create exactly the same "pattern" of combined transform components again and again in order to solve the same problem but in different dataflows (or even within the same dataflow). Cut-and-paste-tastic! In order to obtain real re-use, it seems to me like SSIS is crying out for an easy way to create new components by using composition - i.e. the ability to take commonly-used combinations of existing components and create new "super" components (without having to write Custom Transform Components in C#/VB.Net and handle everything in code).
Does anyone know if this sort of functionality is likely to make it into SSIS in the forseeable future?

Lawrie
Invisible Data
Aug 23, 2005I am facing a problem of invisible data. I have developed a ASP based application in my local laguage and data is entered from 8 clients. Now I have found that in a particular table in the SQL Server very few data is not visible if I see from the SQL query analyzer. But if I go the application and try to enter the data again it gives a message that the data already exist and next time if i see it from query analyzer the data is displayed.
Please help.

What Is That Invisible Character?
Feb 27, 2008Hey, everybody,
I need your help on figuring out what is this invisible character in one of my data column.
The file is from IBM DB2 as text. I am comparing the data with the one in SQL server. There is one white space at the end of the column I couldn't get rid off.
The text strings from both side look idential except the DB2 one has a "space" at the end.
The len() show it's 13, while the sql one is 12. However, the rtrim()/ltrim() did not get rid of it.
This column is at the end of the row. So it could be CR or LF.
To use padindex or stuff functions, I need to know what is this stuff.
Talking about working hard for "NOTHING".
Thanks!
DBO Invisible In User List
Mar 20, 2002Recently found a situation which I can not figure out the cause. Wish somebody can help me here.
The scenario is as follows:
Server: SQL 7.0 with SP2
login name: DBA, standard SQL login, member of sysadmins
DB Name: TEST
DBA is the owner of database TEST and a member of db_owners in the database. Using EM, if you look at Users in TEST database, the only entry you can find is DBA where both Names (user name Login Name) are the same: DBA. There's no entry for user dbo. (from BOL, dbo can not be deleted)
Run sp_helpuser gives out two rows.
user login name
dbo NULL
DBA DBA
I don't know what happened to this machine before. Any clue about the possible cause is highly appreciated.

My Reports Folder Is Invisible
May 9, 2007I am trying to locate the "My Reports" folder on the SSRS site, but I dont think I am able to see it. I am an admin on the box with Browser, Content Manager, My Reports roles.
I also tried creating the folder manually and it says the folder exists but I cant see it.
I have also checked on the "Site Settings" and checked the box "Enable My Reports". What else am I missing here?

Invisible Rows After Failed Syncronization
Nov 9, 2006Publisher: SQL Server 2000 SP4
Subscriber: SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition
Sometimes, after a failed merge replication(due to communication error) some rows on the subscriber became invisible for the publisher.
I've reproduced a case:
[START Short Version]
All rows inserted between a comm failed sync and a fine sync became invisible.
This seems to be caused because the subscriber keeps generating rows with the same generation number and the publisher doesn't look for this generation anymore.

I could code a system that checks all the publication tables and updates all the last generation rows in case of communication error but i would really like to avoid doing it.
I don't know if I'm missing something or if this is a bug or a known issue.
This is a big problem for me because communication errors on cellular phone based connection are quite common and users keep working even if there's an error.
Any comment will be appreciated.
Sorting Makes Table Invisible

How Do You Make A Report Parameter Invisible???
Jun 4, 2007Hi, I have 3 report parameters.
If a user selects 'value1' from the first parameter list then parameter list 2 & 3 should be open for the user to make their selection. BUT if the user selects 'value2' from parameter 1 then only parameter list 2 should be open and parameter list 3 invisible. Is this possible??

How To Make Table Row Invisible Based On Certain Condition
Apr 16, 2008
HI
I have the following scenario in my report.
-The data is displayed in a table
-The table groups by one field
-Each table row calls a subreport
-There is about 6 paramaters in the report
-The last paramater of the list of paramters is a multivalue paramater and based on what is selected in the list the corresponding subreport must be shown.
-So i use a custom vbscript funtion to determine if a specific value was selected or not.
This functionality is working fine.
My problem is if the user does not select all the values in the multi select then i want to make the row invisble
and remove the whitespace so that there is not a gap between the other subreports which is shown.
I can make the subreport invisible inside the row but there is still the white space which does not display very nicly.
How can i make the row invisible if the vbscript function that is called returns a false value?
Here is the funtion I call -> Code.InArray("ValueToSearchFor", Parameters!MultiValueDropDown.Value)
The Function returns a true or false.
Thanks.
How To Handle Invisible Characters On An Account Number
Dec 6, 2007
I am joining on table A AND Table B ON the accountnumber field. The accountnumber on the tblB has some invisble characters at the end, ie "12344 ". The Table A does not have these invisble chars and is "12344".
Due to the extra spaces at the end, the join fails and does not find a match for that acctno. I have used ltrim(rtrim) hoping that will elimante the extra spaces and find a match.
Heres my qry:
select * from Tbla a
inner join tblb B
on ltrim(rtrim(ACCTNO))=ltrim(rtrim(ACCT))
How do I do this, so that it finds a match and returns the acctno.
After Sorting Textbox Is Getting Collapsed Making Table Invisible
Apr 15, 2008
Hi.
I found unpleasant issue within RS:
1. Imagine RS report with Table(with interactive sorting) whose visibility is toggled by Textbox:
2. After sorting the Table the Textbox is getting collapsed making the Table invisible. But the Table should remain visible.
Is this MS bug? Are there workarounds?
If my question is not understandable I can send simple *.rdl report with sample.
Thank you in advance for help.

Job Won't Run, All Components Do
Jun 29, 2001Gurus,
I have a job that contains a step to run a DTS task (DTSRUN /S.....etc.) via a batch file.
I can run either the DTSRUN command line, or the batch file that contains it just fine,
but when I try to run the job, it reports success but does not actually do the work.
I dont get an error message. I am using the sa account to run the DTS task from the command line.
I know this must be a permissions issue. As I am working at a Defense contractor, I cannot get a
domain admin account to run SQL Agent.
Any ideas where to look?

Custom Components On 64-bit
Jan 22, 2008Hi again, All!!
I'm having a problem with problems with some custom components I built. I have a custom Connection Manager and Data Flow Source that I have built.
My local PC is 64-bit, but I followed the MS instructions on building and deploying custom components. They run fine inside of VS2005, as long as I have 'Run64BitRuntime" set to 'False'. When I try to run packages using the custom components in 64-bit mode, I get:
Error: 0xC0014005 at : The connection type "<MyConnectionManagerType>" specified for connection manager "PRI" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name.
I suspect I need to either change the way I build or deploy the custom components. Can someone shed some light on this?
Thanks,
Frank
SSI And Other Components Don't Install
May 20, 2006 Hi
I have installed SQL Server 2005 but Integration Services is just not there. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and in the process uninstalled an old version of Visual Studio.NET (manually because it wouldn't uninstall automatically) and Visual Web Developer, just in case they were interfering with Integration Services. No luck, in fact it got worse, now Analysis Services also does not work because it can't find devenv.exe!
I have installed exactly this same software on another clean PC (ie. no previous Visual Studio variants on it) and it installs perfectly.
There seems to be some kind of clash between old versions of Visual Studio and SQL Server 2005 that prevents SQL Server from properly installing products like Integration Services that use the Visual Studio interface (ie. devenv.exe).
I now can't even reinstall the old version of Visual Studio.NET, and devenv.exe is nowhere to be found on my PC although it is referenced throughout the registry.
Has anyone got any suggestions, all I am after if a full and clean install of SQL Server 2005 so I can develop against it using Visual Web Developer.
Thanks
