How To Handle Complex Sql Search Query
Mar 3, 2006I am currently faced with developing a search function (ASP.NET 1.1
based user interface) to a database (SQL Server 2000 ), and I am
wondering how best to handle the logistics of it.
The search can take anywhere from one to 9 parameters. The search would be executed against three related tables.
The main problem, as I see it at this stage, is how to handle
parameters that have not been selected, it's easy enough to do a search
with all 9 parameters, but as soon as there is an unpredictable
variable number of search criteria, I just don't know how best to
handle this in a stored procedure for example.
I would be very grateful for some guidance.
Thanks.

Best Way To Handle Data Access
Jan 23, 2006This may be a loaded question, but I was wondering if anyone could outline the main options we have available to us for handling data access with ASP.net 2.0 / SQL Server 2005.
I know at one extreme you can simply use the Data Controls like GridView, FormView, and DetailsView, specifying the necessary SQL on a page-by-page basis. At the other extreme, my understanding is that you can basically set up a SQLConnection object, explicitly specify your SQL (or call a stored procedure) and then execute these items from within the code.
Can anyone either outline the main options or point me to a resource that better explains this? Thanks!

Jan 15, 2008Hi,
My source data is from a audit_trail(log) table. Because of the characteristic of audit table, more than one record of the data belongs to a record in another table (TableA). I am wondering what the most efficient way is to handle (Insert or update TableA based on data in audit_trail). Thanks.
Complex DB Search Forms (Store Proc Vs. Complex Where)
Nov 12, 2003I have web forms with about 10-15 optional search parameters (fields) for a give table. Each item (textbox) in the form is treated as an AND condition.
Right now I build complex WHERE clauses based on wheather data is present in a textbox and AND each one in the clause. Also, if a particular field is "match any word", i get a ANDed set of OR's. As you can imagine, the WHERE clause gets quite large.
I build clauses like this (i.e., 4 fields shown):
SELECT * from tableName WHERE (aaa like '%data') AND (bbb = 'data') AND (ccc like 'data%') AND ( (xxx like '%data') OR (yyy like '%data%') )
My question is, are stored procedures better for building such dynamic SQL clauses? I may have one field or all fifteen. I've written generic code for building the clauses, but I don't know much about stored procedures and am wondering if I'm making this more difficult on myself.
How To Handle System.Data.SqlDbType.Text.
Apr 14, 2006I am trying to insert a large amount of data from a web form I created into a "text" field in my DB. Problem is its oly entering the 1st 16 characters. I can see why but I dont understand what I need to do to avoid this shortcomming. Ive searched the forums here and in google groups to no avail :(
<code>
sqlCommand.Parameters.Add(New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@Content", System.Data.SqlDbType.Text, 16, "Content")).Value = ftbContent.Text

How do I need to restructure the above line?
Any help would be appreciated.

Highly Variable Source Data...how To Handle It?
Apr 11, 2007I'm working on the viability of using SSIS to process data files that are (currently) sent by email or FTP and processed by hand. They are .csv or Excel and have some columns that are required, some that are included but the data is discarded, usually have some anomaly (like columns out of place, or columns missing) from source to source, and if they have headers the actual headers are inconsistent from source to source (and sometimes from submission to sumission ). Some sources send only one file, others might send a dozen. Due to the nature of the sources - many are not very technically inclined and sometimes there are other factors involved in how the data is exported - there's not a lot I can do to leverage them into all using the exact same format. Creating an SSIS package for each source (over 100 in all) is not a viable solution.
The compromise that I've come up with is I would like to come up with a universal SSIS package that can:
Take a .csv file with headers (I think we can force the sources to include the right headers if nothing else) as input , with or without quote delimiters.
Not be sensitive to the order of the columns.
Not be sensitive to the number of columns.
Loop through multiple files from one source.
Place the ouput in a staging table for further processing.
Reading a .csv file, looping and the staging table is not a problem. What I'm struggling with is the middle portion. I've tried to make the column headers dynamic, but then I lose the ability to have quote delimiters. My next instinct was to the source file(s) and create one interim file with a different delimiter (such as pipe or ## or something) but that doesn't seem to work quite the way I want it - since the source has comma delimiters, the output has both the pipe and the comma. Another way I could do it is replace the commas within quote delimiters with a blank space in the data flow, which would eliminate the quote delimiters in the output. That I haven't tried yet.
Any suggestions? If I could bring down the hammer and tell every source "You must send it this way" I would, but my hands are tied.
Best Way To Handle Data Connections For Multiple Users And Executions.
May 3, 2008basically, is it inefficient to open and close a data connection everytime data needs to be retrieved or is there a way for a user to use the same conenction over multiple pages orfor multiple users to share one global data connection I just wanted to know this before I built a site where data could be constantly being pulled or put into the database.It would be easier to just keep opening and closing the connection since it just means pasting in the small chunk of code I use to do that where I need it. I hear speak of connections sometimes not closing etc and wonder if that is an issue then if you are opening and closing too many of them. I am using SqlConnection SqlCommand and SqlDatareader , my code works, just wondering if my approach lacked scalability before I find out too late and have to rewrite everything . Jim
View 11 Replies View RelatedIf Else Query For A Complex Data Set
Jan 4, 2007I am creating an application which uses logic similar to J.D.Edwards (for those of you are familiar with its wildcarding data structure).
Basically, a customer purchases a particular house, with a particular elevation, in a particular community. This data is stored in a Customer table. From the customer’s selection (community, plan, elevation) criteria, I need to create a unique list of options from data stored in an optionmaster table.
A customer’s data looks similar to this in the customer table:
CustomerID
CommunityID
Community Name
PlanID
Plan Name
ElevationID
ElevationName
1234567
7
Hickory Hills
25
Allen
3
C
The Optionmaster table is structured like this (there are actually about 1000 records):
Option #
Option Name
CommID
Community Name
PlanID
Plan Name
ElevID
Elevation Name
Price
4567
Optional Window
0
+

Smithville
0

0
+
800
9125
Optional Kitchen
0
+
0
Lori
0
+
2500
First. Based on the customer’s table I need to first select all options = to their community, as well as those available to communities everywhere (+). In some cases the same option is maintained for both at both levels. In that case the community specific option must be selected.
To do this I think I need an if else statement to select those records:
In this case, if CommID =7, select record, else select 0. This eliminates the other Smithville community and pulls the correct option # 1234.
The result would look like this:
Option #
Option Name
CommID
Community Name
PlanID
Plan Name
ElevID
Elevation Name
Price
4567
Optional Window

Lori

2500
Second, from this dataset, I need to select all options equal to the plan ID, and those which apply to all plans (+). So, the Lori Plan data goes away.
Something like, If the plan ID = 25, select record, else 0. the result would be:
Option #
Option Name
CommID
Community Name
PlanID
Plan Name
ElevID
Elevation Name
Price
4567
Optional Window
0

0
+
0

1234

25

0

250
9101
Optinal Dormer
0
+
25
Allen
2
B
50
Third and finally, based on that dataset, I would have to select any elevation specific options for that plan or options for all elevations of that plan (+).
Something like this: If the Elevation ID = 2, select record, else. 0. Note the elevation B data goes away.
The final result would be for this customer is:
Option #
Option Name
CommID
Community Name
PlanID
Plan Name
ElevID
Elevation Name

4567

Exporting Complex Data To CSV
May 12, 2007I want to export data to CSV that is nested.
eg.Poll 1,val1,val2
Question1,Q1val1,Q1val2
AnswerQ1A1,Q1A1val1,Q1A1val2, TallyQ1A1
AnswerQ1A2,Q1A2val1,Q1A2val2, TallyQ1A2
Question2,Q2val1,Q2val2
AnswerQ2A1,Q2A1val1,Q2A1val2, TallyQ2A1
AnswerQ2A2,Q2A2val1,Q2A2val2, TallyQ2A2
AnswerQ2A3,Q2A3val1,Q2A3val2, TallyQ2A3
Best practices-wise, what should my data end up like?
Since it's nested surely it can't be simply a list of identically-formatted rows, one for each answer:
Poll1,val1,val2,Question1,Q1val1,Q1val2, AnswerQ1A1,Q1A1val1,Q1A1val2, TallyQ1A1,Poll1,val1,val2,Question1,Q1val1,Q1val2, AnswerQ1A2,Q1A2val1,Q1A2val2, TallyQ1A2,Poll1,val1,val2,Question2,Q2val1,Q2val2, AnswerQ2A1,Q2A1val1,Q2A1val2, TallyQ2A1,Poll1,val1,val2,Question2,Q2val1,Q2val2, AnswerQ2A2,Q2A2val1,Q2A2val2, TallyQ2A2
Do I end up with three separate tables?
Poll1,val1,val2
Question1,Q1val1,Q1val2, Question2,Q2val1,Q2val2
AnswerQ1A1,Q1A1val1,Q1A1val2, TallyQ1A1,AnswerQ1A2,Q1A2val1,Q1A2val2, TallyQ1A2,AnswerQ2A1,Q2A1val1,Q2A1val2, TallyQ2A1,AnswerQ2A2,Q2A2val1,Q2A2val2, TallyQ2A2
If that's so, do I simply concatenate them in the final file? Or do I have three separate files? And do I label them uniquely such as Poll1Main, Poll1Questions and Poll1Answers so that I can export several polls side-by-side without overwriting each other?
Complex Data Forms
Aug 14, 2004I could really use some suggestions on the best way to get the results of a pretty complex aspx form. There are a whole bunch of search criteria. Most of the criteria are ranges of numbers such as a starting number and ending number but other criteria need to search text fields for keywords. Most fields are optional which means that many values will not be submitted. Not that there is a right and wrong way to do it, but what typically works out better for these things, an aspx procedure that puts together a highly complicated select statement or writing a highly complicated stored procedure? Either way I see a ton of if statements, or am I making this a lot harder then it needs it needs to be?
Thanks.
Complex Data Structures
Oct 5, 2001A point for general discussion maybe.
I've just read Jeff's query regarding passing an array to a stored procedure, and it seems to be a question that hits the message board quite frequently. There often seems to be the case where you have some block of data in one location, and want to process it somewhere else, and there just isn't an easy way to do it (or is there?). Passing a cursor is possible, but getting data back out of a cursor is painful.
The ways I have used in the past are:
Using a cursor
Using a global temporary table
Using a "permanent" table, but declared with a unique name (using a timestamp) and passing the tablename as a parameter.
Has anybody any suggestions for a future SQL release which we could suggest to Microsoft?
Suggestions from myself:
-Having a single TSQL command to copy a cursor back into a table, to make cursor parameters less cumbersome
-Being able to pass a pointer to a temporary table as an SP parameter
-Allowing variables to be declared with more complex structures (such as arrays, or classes)

Checkbox Data-bound To A Bit SQL Field Can't Handle NULL Values
Jun 18, 2004I have a checkbox on my webform that is bound to a bit field in my SQL table. I'm fine as long as I've got the bit field set to 0 or 1, but if the field is NULL, the checkbox throws an exception during the databind.
Is there any way to handle this without removing the data binding and manually setting the value (ie: some way to intercept it before the exception gets thrown and then setting the field value in the dataset)?
Thanks!
Hello , How To Handle Error Inside A Reporting Data Processing Extension..
May 1, 2007I need help about this , What i've done so far is a data processing extension that gets its data from a WS , I use it as a datasource for a report , That report will be displayed withing an ASPX page containing a reportviewer control that displays that report , The problem is catching errors that occurs withing the data processing extension .. ,
When i debugged the extension i saw that after throwing an exception the code ends up inside the "cancel()" event inside the IDBcommand implementation...
In all examples for a data processing extension i could find online they always have a comment saying the cancel is not implemented and throw a NewUnsupportedExtension()..
What happens is i get some uninformative , non-userfriendly error from the reporting services ,
something like "an error occurred during the report processing(rssomehing)"
How should i go about handling those exception that happened inside the data processing extension?
I've tried catching the error inside the event of the reportviewercontrol - reporterror but it seems that event don't fire when those errors are generated..
Any help on how to approach this would be highly welcome
Can A Script Handle Conditional Inserts To An OLDB Data Source?
Nov 20, 2007I have a very simple SSIS task whcih opens a flat file data source, checks the first two characters of each row and if it is equal to "06", inserts that row into an OLDB destination table. However it is inserting EVERY row, even the ones not equal to "06" in first two columns. So, how do I get it to NOT insert the rows I don't want? Any help is very much appreciated and the following is my code:
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim InactiveDate As String
If Left(Row.Column0, 2) = "06" Then
Row.FilingNbr = Mid(Row.Column0, 3, 10)
Row.Address1 = Mid(Row.Column0, 13, 50)
Row.Address2 = Mid(Row.Column0, 63, 50)
Row.City = Mid(Row.Column0, 113, 64)
Row.State = Mid(Row.Column0, 177, 4)
Row.Zip = Mid(Row.Column0, 181, 9)
Row.ZipExt = Mid(Row.Column0, 190, 6)
Row.AgentCountry = Mid(Row.Column0, 196, 64)
InactiveDate = Mid(Row.Column0, 264, 2) + "/" + Mid(Row.Column0, 266, 2) + "/" + Mid(Row.Column0, 260, 4)
If IsDate(InactiveDate) And InactiveDate <> "00/00/0000" Then
Row.AgentInactiveDate = InactiveDate
Else
Row.AgentInactiveDate_IsNull = True
End If
Row.AgentLastName = Mid(Row.Column0, 268, 50)
Row.AgentFirstName = Mid(Row.Column0, 318, 50)
Row.AgentMiddleName = Mid(Row.Column0, 368, 50)
Row.AgentSuffix = Mid(Row.Column0, 418, 6)
End If
End Sub

What Is The Best Practice To Handle Cobol Redeines In Flat File Data.
Mar 1, 2007
Here is my idea but I am looking for the best practice.
Each record can have 3 possibilites.
I would read and write the data 3 times to different tables and add an identity key on all 3 files then I would reassembe the data back together on the identity key and map the data to a fourth and final table.
Any other ideas?

Slightly Complex Data Ordering
Jul 18, 2006I'm a SQL noob still and need some help figuring out a weird problem. I have directory information I am trying to pump out in the correct order, no big deal except some entries need to be categorized based on a simple hierachy. So for example, there is an entry for a company division, and then there are all the subdivisions, and then a few offices. So it goes like this:
Divsion=Computing
Subdivision=Networking
Subdivision=Development
Subdivision=Support
Office=Desktop
Office=Application
In other words, Desktop is an office in Support which is a part of Computing.
Now what I want is to basically pump all that data out via SQL in that exact order. So I have 3 fields that I am using and then trying to arrange it using Order By - except it doesn't come out correctly.
Code:
SELECT Division, Subdivision, Office
FROM directory
ORDER BY Division, Subdivision, Office
What happens with this is that I end up with all my Divisions in order only. So for example, the main entry for Computing has "Computing" as it's Division and Office, but I want it to appear first in the list so I set Subdivision to be "A" - Instead of it appearing first it appears second below an entry for a different Division that also has it's Subdivision set as "A". I end up with Divisions mixed into the wrong cluster of subdivisions and offices.
Anyone have any ideas? It seems like this should be fairly simple and yet somehow it isn't. Thanks in advance for any help!

Web Service Data Source Complex Parameters
Feb 8, 2007I am building a report that takes a web service as data source. This web service does not take primitive types as parameters. The signature is something like this:
<soap:Body>
<GetXml xmlns="myreports.ws">
<root >
<TP Name="string">
<B Name="string" Surname="string">
<SA xsi:nil="true" />
</B>
<B Name="string" Surname="string">
<SA xsi:nil="true" />
</B>
</TP>
<TP Name="string">
<B Name="string" Surname="string">
<SA xsi:nil="true" />
</B>
<B Name="string" Surname="string">
<SA xsi:nil="true" />
</B>
</TP>
</root>
</GetXml>
</soap:Body>
My question is: how do I pass the xml to the web service from reporting services.
I have seen examples with simple types. They do it with this query:
<Query>
<SoapAction>myreports.ws/GetXml</SoapAction>
<Method Namespace="myreports.ws" Name="GetXml"></Method>
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="Parameter1">
<DefaultValue>some value</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="True">
GetXmlResponse{}/GetXmlResult{}/diffgram{}/NewDataSet/Element{@Attribute1,@Attribute2}
</ElementPath>
</Query>
But there are no example on using xml directly instead of parameters. Can anyone help me? Where do I put my xml?
Data Reader Source As ODBC / Complex Sql
May 30, 2007Hello All,
How do I get columns to output when I have a data reader source? My connection is an ODBC and does complex sql. I am connection to a Netezza database and I would like to execute a very complex query, but in essence does
Create newtable as
(select day, sessionId)
from source
// lots of other joins and unions
select day, sessionId from newtable
drop newtable
I have an ODBC connection and I have a Datareader source, I cannot connect this source to my SQL Server destination because no output columns are available. What am I missing here?
Are there any good examples of this, taking data from a ODBC source into SQL server?
Thanks in advance.
Consuming WCF Service With Complex Data Type In SSIS
Oct 9, 2007
Hi,
Need a guidance on consuming the WCF service with complex type in the SSIS package.
I have a WCF service with complex type inside the complex type (Nested complex type) in the web method as an argument. When I try to use this WCF service in the SSIS web service task, I get an error "The web method has unsupported arguments".
I am able to consume the WCF service with the web method having Complex type and simple/prmitive type in side that as argument.
For example:
The web method in WCF service which accepts the argument as comlex type say "Employee" whose structure is:
Employee
{
FName String;
LName String;
Age int
}
It is possible to consume this WCF service and pass the arguments.
But when the Employee complex type is changed to have one more complex type in side it it give the above mentioned error. The Employee type is modified as:
Employee
{
FName String;
LName String;
Age String
Type EmployeeType;
}
EmployeeType
{
type string;
}
Now I get the error Web Method has unsupported arguments.
Can this be done in SSIS?

SSIS Complex Joins From Seperate Data Sources
Oct 30, 2007
Hi,
I'm trying to replicate a SQL join across two seperate data sources in SSIS. If I were to write SQL to do this, it would be as follows:
SELECT Costs.CostRateEntryId,
Costs.UserId,
Costs.HourlyRate * 8 AS DailyCostRate,
Dates.DateKey,
Dates.ActualDate,
FROM Costs
INNER JOIN Dates ON Dates.ActualDate >= Costs.EffectiveDate AND Dates.ActualDate <= Costs.EndDate
Unfortunately, as the tables 'Dates' and 'Costs' are in two seperate SQL2005 systems, I can't really do this. I was hoping that it could be achieved in SSIS, but I cant seem to find any way that I can do a join that's <= or >=.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Error Log Peppered With --&&> 'The Conversation Handle Is Missing. Specify A Conversation Handle.'
Dec 3, 2007Hi
I'm using service broker and keep getting errors in the log even though everythig is working as expected
SQL Server 2005
Two databases
Two end points - 1 in each database
Two stored procedures:
SP1 is activated when a message enters the sending queue. it insert a new row in a table
SP2 is activated when a response is sent from the receiving queue. it cleans up the sending queue.
I have a table with an update trigger
In that trigger, if the updted row meets a certain condition a dialogue is created and a message is sent to the sending queue.
I know that SP1 and SP2 are behaving properly because i get the expected result.
Sp1 is inserteding the expected data in the table
SP2 is cleaning up the sending queue.
In the Sql Server log however i'm getting errors on both of the stored procs.
error #1
The activated proc <SP 1 Name> running on queue Applications.dbo.ffreceiverQueue output the following: 'The conversation handle is missing. Specify a conversation handle.'
error #2
The activated proc <SP 2 Name> running on queue ADAPT_APP.dbo.ffsenderQueue output the following: 'The conversation handle is missing. Specify a conversation handle.'
I would appreceiate anybody's help into why i'm getting this. have i set up the stored procs in correctly?
i can provide code of the stored procs if that helps.
thanks.
Best Way To Handle UID To Another Server
Sep 10, 2006I have a need when a Update, Insert or Delete is done to a record in DB "A", it will send the appropriate UID to a different table in different DB "B".
My first thought was to have a trigger on the table in DB "A" simply call a stored procedure on DB "B" and do the UID.
However - my question is what is the best approach and what's the best way to establish the connection to DB "B" for the UID from within DB "A"? We can't use linked servers - DNSLESS string would be the preferred connect way. Not sure how to execute it within a trigger.
Is even using a Trigger to Stored Proc the best way?
What about Transaction Replication - which I've never attempted - is that a better way?
Just looking for some guidance here so I don't needlessly burn time down a path that isn't recommended or simply won't work.
Thanks as always for your input,
Peter

SQL Server 2000: How To Handle Licenses?
Jul 20, 2005Hello everybodyI've got a small system (~20 client machines) connected to one SQL Server2000. Two of these machines refuse to connect to the database. As I don'tknow how the license system is supposed to work, I haven't investigatedtoo much yet.My question is therefore:Will SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition refuse to accept any newconnections when all licenses are used?Is such case, what tool do I use to add more licenses?thanks in advance--Johnny Ljunggren
View 3 Replies View RelatedConversation Handle Reuse And Conversation Handle XXX Not Found
Jan 18, 2008
We have implemented our service broker architecture using conversation handle reuse per MS/Remus's recommendations. We have all of the sudden started receiving the conversation handle not found errors in the sql log every hour or so (which makes perfect sense considering the dialog timer is set for 1 hour). My question is...is this expected behavior when you have employed conversation recycling? Should you expect to see these messages pop up every hour, but the logic in the queuing proc says to retry after deleting from your conversation handle table so the messages is enqueued as expected?
Second question...i think i know why we were not receiving these errors before and wanted to confirm this theory as well. In the queuing proc I was not initializing the variable @Counter to 0 so when it came down to the retry logic it could not add 1 to null so was never entering that part of the code...I am guessing with this set up it would actually output the error to the application calling the queueing proc and NOT into the SQL error logs...is this a correct assumption?
I have attached an example of one of the queuing procs below:
Code Block
DECLARE @conversationHandle UNIQUEIDENTIFIER,
@err int,
@counter int,
@DialogTimeOut int,
@Message nvarchar(max),
@SendType int,
@ConversationID uniqueidentifier
select @Counter = 0 -- THIS PART VERY IMPORTANT LOL :)
select @DialogTimeOut = Value
from dbo.tConfiguration with (nolock)
where keyvalue = 'ConversationEndpoints' and subvalue = 'DeleteAfterSec'
WHILE (1=1)
BEGIN
-- Lookup the current SPIDs handle
SELECT @conversationHandle = [handle] FROM tConversationSPID with (nolock)
WHERE spid = @@SPID and messagetype = 'TestQueueMsg';
IF @conversationHandle IS NULL
BEGIN
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @conversationHandle
FROM SERVICE [InitiatorQueue_SER]
TO SERVICE 'ReceiveTestQueue_SER'
ON CONTRACT [TestQueueMsg_CON]
WITH ENCRYPTION = OFF;
BEGIN CONVERSATION TIMER ( @conversationHandle )
TIMEOUT = @DialogTimeOut
-- insert the conversation in the association table
INSERT INTO tConversationSPID
([spid], MessageType,[handle])
VALUES
(@@SPID, 'TestQueueMsg', @conversationHandle);
SEND ON CONVERSATION @conversationHandle
MESSAGE TYPE [TestQueueMsg] (@Message)
END
ELSE IF @conversationHandle IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
SEND ON CONVERSATION @conversationHandle
MESSAGE TYPE [TestQueueMsg] (@Message)
END
SELECT @err = @@ERROR;
-- if succeeded, exit the loop now
IF (@err = 0)
BREAK;
SELECT @counter = @counter + 1;
IF @counter > 10
BEGIN
-- Refer to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164086.aspx for severity levels
EXEC spLogMessageQueue 20002, 8, 'Failed to SEND on a conversation for more than 10 times. Error %i.'
BREAK;
END
-- We tried on the said conversation, but failed
-- remove the record from the association table, then
-- let the loop try again
DELETE FROM tConversationSPID
WHERE [spid] = @@SPID;
SELECT @conversationHandle = NULL;
END;
How Do You Handle Null DateTime Values From SQL Server?
Aug 17, 2005If myDateTimeColumn contains a <NULL> value. How do you handle that when reading into a DateTime object in your code?DateTime myDate = Convert.ToDateTime(dr["myDateTimeColumn"]);Does not work, it throws: System.InvalidCastException: Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types.
I am curious as to what others are doing to handle this?
