MS SQL Server :: Variable Value Not Changing As Expected

Changing The Value Of A Variable

Jan 28, 2008

When creating a variable you assign a value to it. Example: D: estA

How do you change the value of a variable once assigned. Example: D: estB

Also is there any way to delete user variables that you do now want. I created variables during development and now I have no need for them.

Thanks

ADO Errors After Changing SP To Use Local Variable

Mar 16, 2007

Changed stored procedure

[dbo].[spLogonName @pNewLogonName varchar(60) AS

SELECT * FROM .dbo.tblUser Where vcLogonName = @pNewLogonName

to

[dbo].[spLogonName @pNewLogonName varchar(60) AS

DECLARE @Local_pNewLogonName varchar(60)

SET @Local_pNewLogonName = @pNewLogonName

SELECT * FROM .dbo.tblUser Where vcLogonName = @Local_pNewLogonName

and started getting this error on the web page.

ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cb3'

Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype.

Does anyone know why this is happening? Nothing on the site has changed. If I change the sp back the errors go away. I'm trying to use local variables in all SP to avoid the slowness that can happen when using the parameter varibles.

Changing The Value Of A Variable With The Script Task

Mar 26, 2008

I want to set the value for a user defined variable with the script task with the intention of using that value as a condition in both of two Precedence Constraints for the purpose of determine which of two different direction the package will go. The problem is I don't know how to reference the User Defined variable in the Script of a Script task, nor how to alter its value.

Can anyone help?

Changing XML Source To A Variable At Runtime

Apr 12, 2007

Hiya guys,

The question:

Can I design data flows with an XML Source pointing to file system xml files, and but run them against variables? I can see the properties at design time (Accessmode=0,1,2; XMLDataVar="User::XMLData), but the XMLSource object doesn't appear to have expressions enabled to change this at runtime, nor do these properties seem to be exposed to configurations.

The scenario:

I have a package that reads through (potentially thousands) of XML files, and having identified the embedded message "type", transforms them via XSLT to an easier XML format (XML Datasource can't cope well with multiple namespaces etc). Then send this the new file off to a type specific dataflow task to send contents to database.

For performance (and other) reasons I'd rather XSLT to a single shared variable and use this variable as the XML source in the data flows (Rather than writing out to the filesystem [via xslt] and immediately reading it back in each time [via datasource]).

But designing the data flow task using a variable as xml source is frustrating for a bunch of reasons - not the least being:

(a) The variable needs to be populated with sample xml data at design time. But this could only ever match one dataflow at a time (fine at run time, but painful at designtime - leading to validation errors popping up all around the place.)

Yes I could have a seperate variable for each xmlsource - but that just makes things more complicated up front and also leaves me with 20+ large, type specific, xml variables floating around at runtime of which only one is ever being used per import - which just doesn't feel right to me.

(b) populating the variable with sample xml at design time is painful due to it being a string - and not accepting hard returns etc that are in text files, design time changes etc)

Using a file XML source at design time is infinitely easier, when I get a design time change - I can just amend the XSLT and run the appropriate task to produce a sample XML file to design against.

Any ideas?

Ta.

Gus.

Changing Data Types Of A Variable In An Expression

May 18, 2006

Greetings once again SQL friends,

Sorry to bug you with my silly questions but this little problem has been driving me crazy for the last hour or so!

I am attempting to change the data type of a variable in an expression but I keep getting an error saying that the expression can not be evaluated.

The syntax I am using is as follows :

(dt_str) @[User::MAX_OFFER_PRICE_ID]

My variable MAX_OFFER_PRICE_ID is type int32 and I am attempting to cast it as a string.

What am I doing wrong?!

Thanks for your help in advance.

Changing Global Variable Based On Day Of The Week

May 11, 2007

I'm new to SSIS so please be gentle...

I'm creating a package that needs to go to an FTP site (FTP Task), download a file, unzip it and then process a series of table loads for the 12 text files that will be unzipped. My problem is that the zip file is a date (yyyymmdd.zip) which is normally the previous day of execution EXCEPT on Mondays when it would be the previous Friday's date. My thought is that IF (magic question) I could determine the day of the week in the SSIS package, I know that Tuesday-Friday is just a formatting exercise of getdate()-1 and Monday would be getdate()-3 but I can't seem to find a way (function?) that will allow me to determine the day of the week?

Thanks in advance!

Changing Variable Scope In Package Templates?

Jun 15, 2006

Is there any way to change variable scope while using package templates?

I have created a package template that has several variables, a "typical" control flow and data flow. My goal was to try and use this as a starting point to create other packages within the same project and edit as required in the new package. I couldn't find any way (yet) to change scope of variables...these still show as belonging to the scope of package used to create the template.

Appreciate any help...thanks.

RIGHT(string, #), I Am Not Getting What's Expected!

Jul 1, 2004

I have the following

SELECT @cLastBarcode
SELECT @tmpCount = RIGHT(@cLastBarcode, 4)
SELECT @tmpCount

SELECT @cLastBarcode returns '14001DT0010006'

BUT

SELECT @tmpCount returns nothing. The RIGHT(....) function does not render any results. I am expecting '0006'.

I read that the data type must be compatible with varchar. The @cLastBarcode was declare as char(25). I have even tried casting the @cLastBarcode char string to type varchar.

Any hints?

DTA: Expected Improvement 0%

Dec 31, 2007

I did a trace on a production DB for many hours, and got more than 7 million of "RPC:Completed" and "SQL:BatchCompleted" trace records. Then I grouped them and obtained only 545 different events (just EXECs and SELECTs), and save them into a new workload file.

To test the workload file, I run DTA just for 30 minutes over a restored database on a test server, and got the following:
Date 28-12-2007
Time 18:29:31
Server SQL2K5
Database(s) to tune [DBProd]
Workload file C:Tempfiltered.trc
Maximum tuning time 31 Minutes
Time taken for tuning 31 Minutes
Expected percentage improvement 20.52
Maximum space for recommendation (MB) 12874
Space used currently (MB) 7534
Space used by recommendation (MB) 8116
Number of events in workload 545
Number of events tuned 80
Number of statements tuned 145
Percent SELECT statements in the tuned set 77
Percent INSERT statements in the tuned set 13
Percent UPDATE statements in the tuned set 8
Number of indexes recommended to be created 15
Number of statistics recommended to be created 50
Please note that only 80 of the 545 events were tuned and 20% of improvement is expected if 15 indexes and 50 statistics are created.

Then, I run the same analysis for an unlimited amount of time... After the whole weekend, DTA was still running and I had to stop it. The result was:
Date 31-12-2007
Time 10:03:09
Server SQL2K5
Database(s) to tune [DBProd]
Workload file C:Tempfiltered.trc
Maximum tuning time Unlimited
Time taken for tuning 2 Days 13 Hours 44 Minutes
Expected percentage improvement 0.00
Maximum space for recommendation (MB) 12874
Space used currently (MB) 7534
Space used by recommendation (MB) 7534
Number of events in workload 545
Number of events tuned 545
Number of statements tuned 1064
Percent SELECT statements in the tuned set 71
Percent INSERT statements in the tuned set 21
Percent DELETE statements in the tuned set 1
Percent UPDATE statements in the tuned set 5
This time DTA processed all the events, but no improvement is expected! Neither indexes/statistics creation recomendation.

It does not seem that Tuning Advisor crashed... Usage reports are fine and make sense to me.

What's happening here? It looks like DTA applied the recomendations and iterated, but no new objects where found in DB.

I guess that recomendations from the first try with only 80 events were invalidated by the remaining from the long run.

I couldn't google an answer for this. Help!!!

Thanks in advance.

SQL CLR Udf Returns 0 Instead Of Expected Value

Dec 12, 2007

My first foray into the SQL CLR world is a simple function to return the size of a specified file.
I created the function in VS2005, where it works as expected.
Running the function in SSMS, however, returns a value of zero, regardless of the file it is pointed at.

Here's the class member code:

Public Shared Function GetFileSize(ByVal strTargetFolder As String, ByVal strTargetFile As String) As Long

' Returns the size of the specified file.

' Parameters: strTargetFolder = path to target file, strTargetFile = target file name.

Dim lngFileSize As Long

Dim objFileInfo As FileInfo

' Confirm file exists.

If Not File.Exists(strTargetFolder & "" & strTargetFile) Then

Return -1

End If

Try

objFileInfo = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo(strTargetFolder & "" & strTargetFile)

lngFileSize = objFileInfo.Length

Catch

' TODO: add error handling; system folders cause error during processed.

End Try

Return lngFileSize

End Function

In SSMS (sp2), here's my assembly steps (this is my local dev machine; I have admin rights):

sp_configure 'clr enabled', 1

GO

RECONFIGURE

GO

-- For file system access, set the database TRUSTWORTHY property.

ALTER DATABASE dba_use

SET TRUSTWORTHY ON

CREATE ASSEMBLY GetFolderInfo

FROM 'C:ProjectsGetFolderInfoGetFolderInfoinDebugGetFolderInfo.dll'

WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE

Here's the udf declaration:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.udfGetFileSize( @strTargetFolder nvarchar(200), @strTargetFile nvarchar(50) )

RETURNS bigint

AS EXTERNAL NAME

GetFolderInfo.[GetFolderInfo.clsFolderInfo].GetFileSize

And the function call - note the target file is on a remote server. Actual file name differs slightly:

SELECT dbo.udfGetFileSize('\SomeServerName$MSSQL2000MSSQLData', 'SomeDBName_Data.MDF')

This always returns zero with no error displayed. Running Profiler was little help and there's not much in the Event Log.
The function returns correct values in VS2005.
The assembly is created with UNSAFE because using EXTERNAL_ACCESS resulted in a security error that prevented the assembly from being created, let alone running. Security is, I suspect, at the root of this issue as well, but I'm not sure what or where to look to verify this.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Is This Expected Behavior?

Aug 8, 2007

I posted this at the asp.net forums but somone suggested I post it here. So:

Try this in sql server:

select COALESCE(a1, char(254)) as c1 from

(select 'Z' as a1 union select 'Ya' as a1 union select 'Y' as a1 union select 'W' as a1) as b1

group by a1

with rollup order by c1

select COALESCE(a1, char(255)) as c1 from

(select 'Z' as a1 union select 'Ya' as a1 union select 'Y' as a1 union select 'W' as a1) as b1

group by a1

with rollup order by c1

The only difference is that the first one uses 254 and the second one uses 255. The first sorts like this:

W
Y
Ya
Z
þ

The second one sorts like this:

W
Y
ÿ
Ya
Z

Is this expected behavior?

Expected Formatted Results??

Feb 17, 2005

Hi All,
I am kindly seeking for help.
I have a table(MyTable) which is defined as (date datetime, ID char (10), and R, P,M,D&Y are all float) and the layout is as following:
Date ID R P M D... Y
1/1/90 A 1 2 3 4... 5
1/2/90 A 2 3 4 5... 1
...
2/11/05 A 3 4 5 6... 2
1/1/90 B 1 2 3 4... 5
1/2/90 B 2 3 4 5... 1
...
2/11/05 B 3 4 5 6... 2
...
The expected query results look like: ( this results from Date, ID and R fields)
Date A B
1/1/90 1 1
1/2/90 2 2
...
2/11/05 3 3

The SQL I wrote:
select date, ID,
A=sum(case when ID=A then R else 0 end),
B=sum(case when id=B then R else 0 end)
from MyTable
Group by date

I would also like to get another set of results with the same format but from date,ID and P fields:
Date A B
1/1/90 2 2
1/2/90 3 3
...
2/11/05 4 4

select date, ID,
A=sum(case when ID=A then P else 0 end),
B=sum(case when id=B then P else 0 end)
from MyTable
Group by date

The problem with that is if I have thousands of ID in MyTable I have to "hard code" thousands times and the same problem with the fields/columns. Is there any easier way to do this?
I also would like to insert the results into a table/view which will be refreshed whenever MyTable gets updated.

Any suggestion/comments are highly appreciated!

Sproc Not Executing As Expected

Oct 24, 2005

I use the following sproc to populate a table that is used as the base recordset for a report.

For some reason, when the sproc is run from a scheduled job, it doesn't repopulate the table. It does, however, truncate the table. If I run it manually from query analyzer, it works fine.

I've checked all the permissions on all the object touched by the sproc, and everything looks right there. Is there another problem I should be looking for?

Do you see anything wrong with this? The first select works and finds rows the second one does not. I have opened the Key since the first query does find rows.

select *

DateDiff Not Calculating As Expected

Feb 19, 2008

I have a stored procedure that is Averaging a Difference in dates in seconds. All of the sudden it started throwing an Arithmetic overflow error. After running the query below on the same data, I can see that it is because the DateDiff in my procedure, which is calculating the difference in seconds, is returning a value greater than 68 years. Looking at the dates in the result table, I don't see how it is coming up with the values in the Years Difference column.

Code SnippetSELECT createdate, completeddate, DATEDIFF(y, createdate, completeddate) as 'years difference'
FROM tasks
WHERE (TaskStatusID = 3) and (createdate < completeddate) and (DATEDIFF(y, createdate, completeddate)>=68)
ORDER BY completeddate

Declaration Expected Error

Oct 11, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to convert an active x script in a script task. Below is a snippet of code. The underlined AsOfDate has a blue squiggly line under it and if I hover over it, it says "Declaration Expected."

Public Class ScriptMain

Dim AsOfDate As String

AsOfDate = Dts.Variables("MyDate").Value
...

Can someone please tell me what I'm missing? I thought maybe I'm missing an import statement, but I have:

Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime

Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper

I have used similar syntax in script components and it works fine.

Thanks

RMO - FrequencyType Not Working As Expected

Oct 9, 2006

Hi,

In SQL 2005 SP1 - In my transactional replication RMO C# script, I want my snapshot job schedule to run daily at 2:58 AM.

Instead it runs hourly in the 58th minute. Sample code below shows I use the value 025800. That should be interpretted as AM. The frequencytype is daily. The frequency interval is 1. There is no subday frequency. Yet the job runs hourly and disregards the specified hour.

Is there something missing in this code? Is this a SQL Server bug?

    // Set the required properties for the trans publication snapshot job.
    TransPublication tpublication = new TransPublication();
    tpublication.ConnectionContext = conn;
    tpublication.Name = publicationName;
    tpublication.DatabaseName = publicationDbName;
    tpublication.SnapshotSchedule.FrequencyType = ScheduleFrequencyType.Daily;
    tpublication.SnapshotSchedule.FrequencyInterval = Convert.ToInt32(0x0001);
    tpublication.SnapshotSchedule.ActiveStartDate = 20051101;
    string newString = "025800";
    tpublication.SnapshotSchedule.ActiveStartTime = Convert.ToInt32(newString);
    tpublication.Create();

What Would Be The Expected Performance Of SQL 2005

Oct 25, 2007

Greetings.

What do I now have:
A directory with Access Databases; around 20 databases, all dinamicly created;
Each Database has on average 300 tables inside, all equally structured, all created by software;
Each table has two DateTime fields, 4 double fields and 4 long int fields;
Each table has around 10000 records, average.

The Directory is shared in a Windows 2003 Enterprise server.
Around 20 users access the databases simultaneously, adding, retrieving and deleting data, over 100MBits LAN.

Here's the catch:
As fast as possible, the program needs to retrieve 1 single record matching a single date from a given table in a given database. All databases work together. It needs to gets litterally thousands of individual records in order to work properly. Per user. That means thousands of requests, but not much data in each request. That's its core job.
A small percentage of request write the record back , that is, update it. Maybe 2% of requests.

If I were to reproduce this situation in a SQL server 2005, what would be the expected time for lets say 50000 requests ?
Or should I stick to Access ?

Thanks,,
Any response will be apreciated.

DateTime.Now Expression Expected Problem

Apr 3, 2007

Hi - I'm using VWD, VB, and created a dataset/tableadapter to insert a record into a SQL Express database. The database has a couple of columns, but specifically a Datetime column.
Using the default insert created, I have the following code:
Dim da as New partyDetailsTableAdapters.partyDetailsTableAdapterProfile.partyid = da.Insert(Profile.UserName, tbName.Text, DateTime.Now)
The compiler throws an error though, saying 'Expression expected' - and it squiggles an underline under the closing bracket after DateTime.Now - I have no problem if I'm trying to update a record using:
Dim da as New partyDetailsTableAdapters.partyDetailsTableAdapterDim pd as partyDetails.partyDetailsDataTablepd = da.GetPartyDetailsByID(Profile.partyid)da.Update(Profile.UserName, tbName.text, DateTime.Now, Profile.partyid, Profile.partyid)
Have I an error in my Insert section?
Thanks for any help,
Mark

Trim And Update Not Working As Expected

I was hoping that the Trim function inside the update command, cmdUpdate.Parameters.Add("@doc_num", Trim(txtDocNum.Text))
, would deal with any leading and trailing spaces, but it does not seem
to be doing anything at all. The value from the textbox still arrives
in the database table with leading spaces!!

Am I doing something wrong?

Outer Joins Does Not Work As Expected

Jul 27, 2000

Hi,

I am trying to extract the non matching records and the matching ones
in two tables from two servers, one a linked server in one go.
For example if table A has records,
Rec1, Rec2, Rec3 and Rec6
AND Table B has
Rec1, Rec2, Rec3 and Rec7
I need to get in the result set
Rec1, Rec2, Rec3, Rec6 and Rec7.

The real query I ran is as follows. I want to know the list of all tables
in GlobalDB database in sg_qt1 and sg_q5 servers.
NOTE : sg_q5 is a Linked server to sg_qt1.

Select Substring(a.name,1,30), Substring(user_name(a.uid),1,19)
from sysobjects a
full outer JOIN sg_q5.globaldb.dbo.sysobjects b
ON a.name = b.name
where a.xtype = 'u' and b.xtype = 'u'
and a.name not in ('dtproperties','rowcounts','globalDBrowcounts')

If I run it from sg_qt1, the result I get contain all tables from sg_qt1
but not the non-matching ones from sg_q5.

I am obviously doing something wrong, but what is it?

Thanks.
If possible please reply to, r.wimalaratne@iaea.org

Compound Primary Key - Order Not As Expected

Apr 26, 2006

Hello,if you create this table:create table hello (int a, int bconstraint pk_hello primary key clustered ( a, b ))and then insert the following recordsa,b1,11,21,32,12,22,33,13,23,3and then doselect a,b from hellothe output seems to be:a,b1,12,13,11,22,23,21,32,33,3which is wrong and (i think) is reflecting the actual index orderand physical order on diskit should be:a,b1,11,21,32,12,22,33,13,23,3i have tested this on a table with 500,000 recordsand sure enough if you declare the clustered primary key fields inreverse order:constraint pk_hello primary key clustered ( b, a )two things happen:- the select with no order by returns the records in the expected order- queries relying on that order run MUCH FASTERhas anyone else seen / noticed this?

UserSort Functionality Does Not Work As Expected.

May 7, 2007

Hello,

I have the problems with UserSort functionality. I have attached the report to show what I mean. textbox3 located in the table group has the following user sort property value:

<UserSort>
<SortTarget>table1</SortTarget>
<SortExpression>=Fields!CompanyName.Value</SortExpression>
</UserSort>

I expect that the sorting will be performed within the entire table(data in both of groups will be sorted alphabeticaly by company name).

Instead of it, the sorting is performed independently for every group of table. What is the reason??

Here is the report

Transactions And Checkpoints Not Working As Expected

May 2, 2007

I have a package that has a container containing multiple DF Tasks.

The container is set to be Transacted, such that should any of the DF tasks fail the data inserted in any of the previous tasks rolls back.

This works as expected.

However, this container is part of a larger package and so I wanted to have a checkpoint on it, so that should any of the tasks within it fail, the package could be restarted from this container.

However, I would expect the functionality to be that on failure, the checkpoint would cause the whole container to be started again (because the container is transacted all DF task info would be rolled back) so we would expect it to start at task 1 again.

This is not the functionality I see. The package restarts from the failed task within the container every time.

According to the book Prof SSIS, it should start again from the first task and as explained this makes sense on a Transacted container as you would want this to happen.

A previous forum message encountered the same issue it appears:

See SSIS Checkpoints 04 Dec 2006.

This is an extract from it:

"I only experimented a little but my experience was that when I have a transacted container with multiple tasks that are checkpointed, SSIS would try to restart from the task that failed rather than from the first task in the container. The transaction was being rolled back correctly though.

In short, I felt that check points were not aware of transactions.

So, I ended up with this setting and it works for me:

Container is checkpointed and trasacted.
Tasks within the container are not checkpointed.
'FailParentOnFailure' property set to True on the tasks.

That way, if a task failed, it would fail the container and a checkpoint would be created at that level. Transaction would be rolled back as usual."

While this makes sense to me it is not the same properties that the SSIS book has that work.

Additionally, this didn't work for me either !!

I have tried every combination of FailPackageOnProperty and FailParentOnProperty that makes sense but every time the package restarts from the failed container within the task.

The transaction is rolled back correctly every time, but it seems the checkpoint that is created is not used correctly when dealing with transactions within containers.

ForEachLoop Task Not Behaving As Expected

Mar 30, 2007

Hi,

I have a ForEach Loop that has 3 script tasks in it.

I have them set up so that they execute in order, such as:

script1 ---> script2 ---> script3

script1 creates a file

script2 creates a file

script3 compares the files using a diff command

Problem is, when I execute the container, it shows that script3 finishes BEFORE script2, which of course gives an error b/c the file from script2 doesn't exist yet.

The error is "The system cannot find the file specified".

Thanks

Point Label Position Not Where Expected

Aug 20, 2007

I have a simple column chart with point labels. The values are displaying at a -90 angle. I want the values to display in the center of the column, but when I choose the center position, it is displaying at the top; half of the value is in the bar and the other half above. Why?
