To Rename A File By Attaching Date Stamp Using SSIS
Feb 26, 2008
Hi All,
I have a dataflow task that creates a text file and posts it in a FTP share.
In need to rename the file attaching datestamp(current date of package execution) at the end of filename.
For ex: My dataflowtask creates a file called 'Samplename.txt'
I need to rename it to : 'Samplename20080225.txt.
I think it can be done using the File task...I see an option to rename the file but not sure of how to configure the task to attach current datestamp.
I see some suggestions online, but complete steps on how to implement the above would be highly appreciated.
I would like to know as to how can I put a Current Date & Time stamp on a FILE NAME automatically which is created by a DTS package.
E.g. I create a file named ABC.TXT daily. How do I get this file to have the current Date stamp so that the file name is ABC121201.TXT without any user intervention.
I want to rename a file that is a variable to a fixed file name in a specific folder in SQL Server System Integration Services using the File System Task Editor. Example: File1.txt to Users.txt or File2 to Users.txt. The source file is a variable the destination file is not. Here is an example of the File System Task EditorHOW DO I SPECIFY A FIXED OR VARIABLE FOLDER NAME WITH A SPECIFIC FILE NAME?????????File System Task EditorProperties ValueDestination ConnectionIsDestinationPathVariable TrueDestinationVariable User::ArchivePathOverWriteDestination TrueGeneralName Rename a fileDescription File System TaskOperationOperation Rename fileSource ConnectionIsSourcePathVariable TrueSourceVariable User::ImportFilePath Thanks
Hello Everyone and thanks fo ryour help in advance. I am working on a blog site that stores each blog entry in a SQL Server table. Each entry is date stamped with the time it is created in a datetime field called "TimeCreated". I want to be able to create some type of ability to sort the older blogs as an archive and display links on a pages such as "Archive - January 2007, Archive - December 2006" etc. I'm not exactly sure on how to go about doing this. any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
When a record is written to a table (via a asp form), I'd like the timeand date from the server to automatically populate a column in thattable. From what I can tell, timestamp isn't working. I rather nothave the time come from the client.Thanks for the help.
I create back end table on SQL Server and front end in Access. On my sql table I select the datatype as date/time and on the default value on the field I put this one (dateadd(day,datediff(day,0,getdate()),0). When I input the data in to a SQL table and refresh its showing correct as 12/06/2006. But when I checked in access its showing the date data as 2006-12-06 00: but I want to show 12/06/2006. Can you tell what I have to do SQL table default field to come out like 12/06/2006 not 2006-12-06 00:. Thanks and appreciate your comments.
I'm pretty new at this, writing SQL and reporting services. I created a report with a date parameter. I need the report to ignore the timestamp. My @Startdate is fine because the timestamps is at 12:00:00AM but my @EndDate also has this timestamp. I need to pull all the data up to the end date the user enters without taking the timestamp into consideration.
If someone can help me out with, I would greatly appreciate it.
I need to separate the date stamp (which looks like this 2006-10-05 09:08:41.000) into the date in this format 05OCT2006 and then the date stamp separate in this format 09:08. Thanks!
How do I get the file name appended with the time stamp info like this: Order_file__2002626_8_34_4.csv in an automated process which generates the file? Any help??
Does anyone know how to do this using variables? Everytime I try it, I get the
Error: Failed to lock variable for read access with error 0xc00100001.
I also tried it writing a script and still the same error. If I hard code the values into the variables it works fine but I will be running this everday so that it will pull in the current date along with the filename. So the value of the variables will change everyday. Here is my expression:
Hi there, I have inherited a databse and am building a new website to go wiht it. There is a file upload page which will upload images to a directory. I need to insert into the database retrieve the id just added then upload the image renaming it in the format locID(QueryString)_ImageID(retrieved from database).jpg The page has a file upload control and a button. I am trying to write my code behind so that when the button is clicked it inserts location id into the images table retrieves Image id. Renames the file and uploads it to the images folder. II think i need to call the routine from another routine for the button click but the signatures are different, where am i going wrong? or for that matter have i been pissing into the wind for the last 4 hours?

I want to move and rename a file and embed the date/time into it, so that each time the package runs a new file is created. For example MyFile_20060712_150000.doc.
Can someone give me a hint how to do this with the File Systen Task SSIS Control Flow Item?
Could someone please instruct me on how to use the File System Task Editor to rename a file? I place control on control flow tab, change the operation to rename, from there I am not sure what to do.
we lost a drive that was holding our log files for a database. I have the .mdf file from the database. So I'm trying to attach the database using just the mdf file but it fails because its still looking for the log file.
Bit of a SQL newbie, having taken over a support role for a piece of software that my firm sells. It is basically a DB that runs on MSDE or SQL Server in either desktop or enterprise scenarios.
We do sell our software to clients who may or may not already have SQL on their machines. During installation, it searches for sqlservr.exe for existing SQL installations and if it finds nothing, will then install MSDE 1.0 to house the db files.
My question is this -
I can manually create a db or manually attach an existing db through sql query analyser where there is a full-blown SQL installation. Is there any way I can do the same where there is only MSDE installed? The simple solution, I guess, would be to download one of the freeware or shareware MSDE "Enterprise Managers", but this won't always be suitable for a client installation.
there was a failure due to power shutdown,and the .mdf and .ldf files on the DB is not longer available. there is a backup done 5days ago with the title nice_cls.BAK. How do i restore or reattach the .bak file on the NICE-CLS database.
Hi there, I'm trying to attach a DB using a single MDF file. The file was not properly detached as our server had crashed suddenly neither was the a proper backup done..When I try to attach it says "the file you've specified is not a valid sql server database file" . But another database was restored using a MDF file without any problems ? Please do get back if anyone may get what the problem likely is ? It'd be of great help. Let me know if my problem was clear or if I've to put it in a different fashion.
Attemping to reattach a recovered .mdf and associated .ldf from a crashed disk drive and I am getting the error below. I attempted to create a new db, stop the service, replace the new data files with the recovered db files and restarted the SQL service so that I could run a dbcc checkdb while the db was in suspect mode, however was unable to do this. This error leads me to belive that the log file needs to be rebuild, but that the mdf files could be a decent shape. Any help would be apprecaited. Thanks!
