It's probably a really easy thing to do, but I can't find out how to do it, so hopefully somebody can spare the time to help.
I want to read in T-SQL contained in a file held on disk and execute it in a stored procedure.
Anybody know how to get the contents of the text file into a variable so I can exec it ?
Thanks for your time.

Hello,
this is my configuration :
1) 3 disks in RAID5 that hold the SQL data
2) 1 disk in RAID0 that holds the only paging file.
What will happen to the SQL data (DB) when the disk that holds the paging file crashes?
Kindest regards,

Hi
I have a problem with SSIS in that I need to read an XML file in from a URL,which brings me back the below XML. What I need to be able to do is essentially create a single record, including the nested XML <image> into the same record. This information then needs to be entered into a database table.
What I found is that if I use a data flow component, and have an XML source pointing to this URL, it essentially creates a different output for every level of nesting. This causes me serious issues because I would then have to somehow get to the information in the <image> tag, and then get everything below that, etc, to be able to get the images related to each <stock> record. This is a pain.
I also looked at using an XML task, where I could use an XSLT to transform to the required output, however, I can't point this XML task to a URL to retrieve the XML.
If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it
Thanks
Darrell

I am trying to read from a datasource that is a CSV file using C#, but for some reason I keep getting an error that says:
System.Exception: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Syntax error in FROM clause.
My code looks like this:
String sql = " SELECT IDnumber FROM report.csv WHERE username = @Username ";
ArrayList parameters = new ArrayList();
parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("@Username", Username));
DataTable dt = OleDbUtility.getDataTable(sql, parameters, OleDbUtility.GetCNetIDConnectionString());
It worked with an Excel file, so any ideas on this one?
It seems like the connection string is fine...
Brand new to SSIS so bear with me, if something is obvious.
I want to be able to read a file from a certain directory. But the file name changes every day. So today its File20061203 tomorrow File20061304 or the next day it could be FileNB4434. The format in the file will always be the same though. I just want for a user to be able to drop a file in a directory and the package pick it up once a day.
Would I have to to create a script task or could I use a variable. I have been trying to use the variable but have not been able to get them to work. This calls for only looking for 1 text file in a folder but any additional links that show some good variable examples would be appreciated. One where only part of the variable changes File(Variable)Division.txt
Thanks in advance

When importing data from a source server it is useful to know which rows have changed since the last import. Is there a good way to get this information from the SQL Server log files? Does "dbcc log" provide this function, for example? Is this something that is done a lot or would it be considered a kludge?
Thanks,

View 1 Replies View Relateddoes anyone here have a sample to how mssql can read a comma delimeted textfile...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI get the following error when reading a flat file : [Credit Information 1 [1]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "AccountName" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
I did check all the mappings, and everything seems to be fine, the field is read in as a string. I also check for any strange characters that can possibly cause this error but the value of the field only contains a person's name and spaces at the end.
Does anyone have any ideas what might be the cause of the error?

I have a report that is based on a query that is read from a .sql file and is executed in the stored procedure. I found this code on the internet. When I run the SP in Query Analyser it tells me that "2 rows have been affected". I don't know why I don't get the data. Any help??
Stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE TimeTracker_Report_ClientNumbers2
AS
DECLARE @SQLQuery as NVARCHAR(4000)
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE #tmpQuery (Query NVARCHAR(4000))
BULK INSERT #tmpQuery FROM '\servernameQueriesReport_ClientNumbers.sql'
SELECT @SQLQuery = Query FROM #TMPQUERY
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLQuery
END
GO
and Report_ClientNumbers.sql contains the following query:
SELECT Name, ClientNumber FROM Companies WHERE Not ClientNumber IS NULL ORDER BY ClientNumber
I added a field to an exisiting table (CHAR 30), and I added to field to the BCP Format File.
The BCP worked fine before the new field, and still works fine when I exclude the new field

SQLState = S1000, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]I/O error while reading BCP format file
(2 row(s) affected)
Here is a copy of my format file:

I have text output files which are semi-structured.(Headers + irregular length tables below)
Is there a simple method of getting them into sql format(line by line) to try and extract data from them?
I know this won't be easy but its been worrying me for a long time. I have a method of importing the data into excel, but although difficult, it must be possible to get a system to get it into sql server. This must be a fairly common issue.

Hi,
I have a requirement where I should be reading the file (I will use File system Task for this) and the header content. I should be able to read the header, validate and when the validation succeeds , I should start process the rest of the file.
To elaborate this further, take a sample Example. Assume that the header will have the date information. In a given folder I should read the file, will check the date (header being the first line of the file). If it matches the current date, I will start processing and on completion I will archive my files.
Can someone help me on this sample. Thanks

Hi,
The suggestion to do this is buried deep in one of my posts, however I still do not have a clear idea of how to do this.
I have a flat file which has several "bad rows" in it. Because file error redirection is buggy, I need a manual approach to get rid of these incomplete rows in my data file.
Phil, you suggested I read the file as one long string, then parse out the bad rows (using a script?).... however I have no idea as to how to actually do this.
I was wondering if it's possible to clarify the steps involved in doing this, or perhaps point me to an example I can look at, as I cannot seem to get around this problem on my own.
Thanks much!!
