Hi All,
Can anyone suggest me a way to migrate data from paradox tables to sql server tables using SSIS.
Paradox tables are having millions of rows.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I am updating a Sql Server 7.0 DB to Sql Server 2005 Standard
I have to update Sql Server tables with Paradox 4.5 (DOS) data,
with DTS in 7.0 this was no problem.
In Visual Studio I use the OLE DB Jet 4.0 driver with the extended property "Paradox 4.x"
The package runs well if there is no Memofield or the Memofield has only a few characters.
If there is an Memofield filled with more than 250 Characters the preview and the data flow faults.
If I use "DBASE IV" on a dBase-table there is no error, but the NTEXT-Field in Sql Server has only one character " "
What can I do to get Paradox-data with Memofields?
Other problem:
I am missing the OLE DB Jet 4.0 Data Source in the Import/Export-wizard in
Sql Server Management Studio.

Hi,
I have created a simple SSIS package in a 32-bit server and I'm able to execute it using dtexec command in the same server.I copied this package to the 64-bit machine and when try to execute the pacakge using dtexec /f <package path> ,it is giving me the following error
"The connection manager "10.101.24.230.master 1" will not acquire
a connection because the package OfflineMode property is TRUE. When the Offline
Mode is TRUE, connections cannot be acquired."
But in SSIS designer OfflineMode property for the package is by default set only to false but still I get this error in 64-bit.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Thanks

I applied the following info and created an SSIS package that allows COM control of Excel:
unable to add reference to Microsoft Excel in VSA
The package runs locally, and can be executed successfully after it is migrated to the server, but both of these processes use local memory space (I think). When I try to run the package via a job, it fails with the following error:

Hi,
I have been told, I will have to transfer some paradox data into sql server 2005.
What is the best way to do this? i.e. if SSIS can be used, then what will be the source? I ask because there does not seem to be a source for Paradox.
Any thoughts please?
Thanks
I've been programming in Paradox since DOS, but one mail-order database is getting rather large (100K client records, and associated orders, etc).
Our client wants us to move to Filemaker. In fact he'd like to have a 3rd party write the programme and me maintain it. The current package has been written & maintained by myself, with an awful lot lot going on in the Object PAL code.
I already have a copy (legal) of SQL Server & 10 licences for Access, and think that's a better option to re-develop in (although I could do with some training in both).
What are the pros & cons for each app, and what would people recommend. I'm going to cross-post into Access, Paradox & Filemaker forums to get an equal view.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to import a Paradox 8 db into SQL Server 2000 using DTS but the list of data sources in the connections dialog only caters for version 5.x or older. Does anybody know how to get the data source for v8?
If not, is there any other quick and efficient way to import a paradox 8 db as I have to import around 15 of them to do.
Thanks
I've never really setup or used MS SQL Server (just a couple hours, oneday, several months ago). I think MS SQL Server has the ability to use"linked tables", like MS Access does. Is this correct? What I want todo is have an MS SQL Server setup, which compatible applications cantalk with, but I want the data to come from a Paradox database. I canuse any MS SQL version, whatever would work best. I'm not sure aboutthe Paradox version, I know it is an old DOS version. I can't justconvert the data to another format, because Paradox still needs to useit.I tried using MS Access before, with ODBC drivers it *should* be ableto work with the Paradox data. However, I ended up with lots of datacorruption. I'm hoping MS SQL Server may work better, and not corruptthe Paradox data everytime it is updated.

I am tasked with migrating a few DTS packages to SSIS from 32bit 2000 box to 32 bit 2k5 box. These DTS packages contain simple processing of AS cubes. When I run the wizard to migrate the package on my sql 2k5 box, I get the following error during processing:
Could not load file or assembly "Microsoft.SqlServer.Exec80PackageTask, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
and the wizard shows the status being "Stopped". I found the Microsoft.SqlServer.Exec80PackageTask.dll on a 64 bit server located in C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90DTSTasks and copied it to the 32 bit 2k5 box. This still did not work and the error log produces

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog].
I also tried re-installing the backward compatability components to no avail. Any ideas?

Hi all - just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of how arduous this task would be (migrating Cognos Data Manager scripts to SSIS). I realize it wont be a trivial endeavour, but wondered how much of a headstart having the initial validated Cognos catalog would be to this project (or would it be pretty much useless?)
Thanks
I have created a SSIS package to load data into a destination table.
Now I cheked that package into main server. Then I tried to change path for both source and destination connection managers. I'm not sure whether I can do that.
But now what I want is load data into a data base which is in another server (Perforce).
Can I do this? Or Am I doing smthing wrong?
If so, Which is the correct way?
I have migrated DTS to SSIS through migration utility. The origional DTS has lots and lots of VbScript.
SSIS has converted it into 8 to 10 Activex script task. When I run the package it gives error in the first activex task.
I found on net the SSIS does not understand Vbcript and this needs to convert into .Net.
Please guide.
Hi all,

Hello,
Is it possbile to migrate SS2000 DTS packages to SS2005 SSIS involving databases with compatibility mode set to 80. If yes, what are the potential issues, which may occur?

Hi All,
In SQL Server 2000 DTS, I had an Active X script that, using ADO, performed the following basic operation:
Retrieve a list of account numbers through Recordset1
While Not Recordset1.eof
Build a sql statement based on fields from current row of Recordset1
Open Recordset2 based on the sql statement built
Run an update query based on results from recordset 2
Loop
I want to bring this over to SSIS, but i'd like to take advantage of the most current "ways of doing things" instead of just using SSIS's activex script.
Does anyone have any recommendations on the best way to handle this type of thing in SSIS? A script task? A script component? I've never really worked w/ ADO.net so if it involves that I'd have to pick up some pointers... any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Jeff
Hi,
In my script 'm using
Set oPkg = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent
Set oBeginStep = oPkg.Steps("DTSStep_DTSExecuteSQLTask_1")
I guess becoz of using DTSGlobalVariables.Parent in activex,the script is not working.
Can anyone please suggest a solution to run it in SSIS.
Thanks in Advance
I have migrated several (7) DTS packages to SSIS in a development environment. In this environment these packages all work as designed. I am now in the process of placing the .dtsx files on the production server and scheduling jobs around them.
I am encountering problems in 3 of these 7 packages. I get the following error:
Message
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User <domainuser>. The last step to run was step 1 (Create and Transfer Credentialling Data).
This is not what I would call very informative. I have opened the dtsx files in question in BIDS on the production server and each has the following error reported:
Error loading <name>dtsx; Failed to decrypt protected XML node "PassWord" with error 0x8009000B" Key not valid for use in specified state." You may not be authorized to access this information. This error occurs when there is a cryptographic error. Verify that the correct key is available.
I have looked at the package setting "Protection Level" and all seven packages have the same setting: EncryptSensisitveWithUserKey
Each of the connections within the packages have been defined to utilize Windows Authentictation. And the jobs are set to run under the SQL Agent Account.
What I find most puzzeling is that each of these packages are defined exactly the same and some work correctly and others do not.
Thanks for taking the time help me with this issue.
Hi,
We need to migrate data from Sqlserver2000 database to Sqlserver2005. The SQLserver2000 DB was poorly Normalized and the DB was redesigned inSqlserver 2005. Both the databases are operational.Currently we have around 90 tables that need to migrate the data from the OLD DB to NEW DB, all the table mappings between the old schema and new schema have been successfully established.
Each Table is treated on its own merit and applying its own business rules which allows the data to be transformed to the new tables.The client wants us to build a SSIS solution that needs to performs the following
a. Import all Look Tables.
b. Import all master Tables ( One time import of some tables data and other tables may need to import every 4 hrs)
c. Import all Transaction tables( One time import and other tables may need to import every 4 hrs of data)
My Question is how to apporoach this scenario of pulling one time lookup, master and transaction tables and scheduling 4 hrs data importing process, how to build a SSIS solution for this type of scenario.
Thanks

Hi,
I have to create a migration package ..means package should migrate the sql server 2000 tables to 2005 tables (Not dealing with data at this point of time and ignoring SPs,DTS packages).But there are lot of normalisation ans schema changes in 2005 compared to 2000.Like,
- One 2000 table devided into 3-4 tables in 2005
- Lot of changes in the filed names
- Handling integrity relationship between the newversion tables
Being new to SSIS ,iam in confusion like how to start and where to start.can you pls tell me the steps(Structured way) i have to fallow
-- I have around 8-9 tables in 2000 ,I have to migrate them into 18-19 tables (with some new fileds )
-- For each table i have to create one package(bcoz lot of transformations are there) or I can create one package for all of those ? but the finally i have to handover one package to the client
pls ask me if u need any further info to come up with the explanation..bcoz iam not sure whether i provided enough info or not
Thanks for ur help

Below is a migration plan that I've compiled to migrate SQL 2000 DTS packages to SSIS 2005. Once these DTS packages have been migrated i will need to create a job and schedule them in SQL 2005.
I would appreciate and feedback or questions on this migration plan.
Migration DTS 2000 packages to SSIS 2005:
1. Will need to save the current production DTS package as structure storage file. We do not have a UDL file. We set the data connections within each DTS package.
2. Go to Sql 2005 - ManagementLegacyData Transformation Services - right-click and open previous saved structure storage file.
3. Modify the DTS data creditentials to reflect the SQL 2005 connection data. Modify any SQL 2000 MAPI settings to utilize SQL 2005 new database mail. Save the package on SQL 2005.
4. After the modified DTS package has been updated and saved on SQL 2005, save this file as a structure storage file.
5. go to BIDS. Create a new SSIS project. Right-click on SSIS packages and select Migrate DTS 2000 package. This will migrate over the DTS 2000 package with the updated SQL 2005 data creditentails.
6. click on the package properties - protectionlevel and change it to dontsavesensitive.
7. right-click and select package configurations..., select to store data creditentials in xml format.
8. right-click on execute DTS 2000 package task, select Edit... and click on Load DTS2000 package internally. This will embed this task into the new SSIS package. Test the package. Continue if successful.
9. Use SSIS deployment functionality to move the package over to SQL 2005 Integration Services. Right-click on package and select Run Package, if successful, create a job and schedule it to run on SQL 2005 Agent.
10. When creating the Job under SQL Agent, change the Owner: of the job to reflect the owner of the new SSIS package. Schedule the job.
I've just coming up to speed on SSIS 2005. Therefore, this is what i've been able to piece together up to this point and I'm looking for some industry advice/feedback on whether or not this is a good migration plan. I need to provide a migration plan to management by 2/18. Thanks
Hi - Im migrating packages in dts 2000 to SSIS 2005 using package migrator wizard. It loads a CSV to a table in DB. I need to change the server and file location paths after migration. While changing this, im encountering error - "the acquireconnection method call to connectionmanager failed

I'm migrating DTS containing a Loop that performs tasks again:
in the last task:
stpBegin = Pkg.Steps("DTSStep_DTSActiveScriptTask_1");
stpBegin.ExecutionStatus = DTSStepExecStat_Waiting;
My needs are:
1: exec SQL Task 1
2: Script task 1 (write log/insert into table)
3: exec SQL Task 2
4: script task 1 again
5: exec SQL Task 3
6: script task 1 again
etc... etc...
I've one only task for write loginsert into table. Can I switch it to "waiting" status and do it next step?
How can I do this?
hi all,
The PATINDEX function is not working with the image datatype in SQL Server.
The books online says that you can use PATINDEX with the image datatype.
Unfortunately it seems to be big lie.
How can I get the functionality of PATINDEX worked.
This is how I placed my SQL Query
declare @p binary(16)
select @p =0xFFFFF30A000000008400000001000000
select patindex('%DEFG%',image) from image where textptr(image) = @p
The error I am getting was
Server: Msg 288, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
The PATINDEX function operates on char, nchar, varchar, nvarchar, text, and
ntext data types only.
Why this is not working, according to Books online
Thanks for your time

Does anyone know of a good tool that will convert a Paradox 11 Database to SQL 2005 with ease? Looking around and really unable to find anything...
Thanks in advance
Hello,I've the following problem. I've to read out the data of a customapplication. I think (I'm not sure) this application is using aParadox DB to store it's information. I don't know it exactly causeI'm not familar with paradox at all, but I've found files like *.db,*.mb, *.px, *.xg*, *.yg* !!!I need the infomation from this files to combine it with other datastored in SQL 2000. I'm tried DTS to import the Data but I've got an"Microsoft JET Database" Error telling me that the table could not befound or that the table has not the asumed format. It depends on which*.db File i try to open. Description: Error calling the OPENROWSETmethod on the provider.My Questions, are there some special drivers i need, not included inMS MDAC Components or must I use a complete Databaseserver in theBackgroud hosting the DB Files. My developer station has the customapplication NOT installed. The db files seems to have no password set.I've got the same error when using MS Access to import the data. Ionly set the path to the dictionary where the files are in but leaveusername and password blank.HOW TO GET THIS DATA OUT ???Thank youTony
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Paradox file which has 270 thousand records. If I open this db file through a paradox viewer it shows the correct number of rows.
I have an SSIS package which is suppose to read this db file and insert it into the SQL 2005 table. But when I execute this package it goes into a loop, reading the file over and over again. The package fails after inserting some 10 million rows giving the error msg 'Not enough space on temporary disk'.
On examing the data transfered into SQL there are duplicate rows.
I also used the import export wizard (thinking there might be some error in Package code) provided by SQL to transfer the data from .db to SQL but it has the same result(goes in a loop).
I would appreciate any help in this problem. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks
We used to use DTS to read Paradox files. This is something we do regularly. DTS has a native Paradox driver. This seems to have disappeared in SSIS.
Can anyone recommend the best way to read Paradox Files with SSIS?
I'm fairly new to SQL Servers and have Paradox 8 installed. Does anyone know how to setup a linked server in the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 so that the SQL server can access Paradox 7 tables?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello All,
I know nothing.
I am helping a friend, current database Paradox 7.x, custom app as I am sure they all are. I wanted to convert this DB to SQL or Access(MS)I do not have Access, but I have SQL 2000. I used the import/ convert tools within SQL, looked good to me, no errors etc.
I thought life was good. Now try to view, look at the data the way
users could. In the SQL manager, I can see tables, and stored procs, and lotsa cool stuff. I try and install SQL client on a PC to view. It basically extends the Admin tools to the deskop PC. How do I use an SQL conversion to realize the needs of the user interface. I think I need what is called a front end. You can stop laughing now.....
Anyway what direction should I take
to update this antique, no support Paradox DB.
Thanks, Dan T
Hello,
I have SQL Server 2000 and I'm trying to import data from a paradox v5 database. Everything has moved over fine but the data from the blob fields. When I use the import tool and try connect to a paradox blob field, the import wizard does not "see" the paradox blob field. here is and example.
If I have a table with the following fields.
id char(20)
description char(120)
image blob
the ms-sql import wizard sees
id char(20)
description char(20)
I find this very odd, but I do need a solution. Any Ideas?
