Split Row's Columns Across Multiple Tables
Hello,

Hoping someone here can help. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but I'm surprised not to see a data flow task in SSIS for splitting *columns* to different destinations. I see the Conditional Split task can be used to route a *row* one way or another, but what about columns of a single row?

As a simple and somewhat contrived example, let's say I have a row with twelve fields and I'm importing the row into a normalized data structure. There are three target tables with a 1-to-1 relationship (that is, logically they are one table, but physically they are three tables, with one of them considered the "primary" table), and the twelve input fields can be mapped to four columns in each of the three tables.

How do I "split" the columns? The best way I can see is to Multicast the row to three different OLE-DB Destinations, each of which inserts to one of the three target tables, only grabbing the four fields needed from the input row.

Or should I feed the row through three successive OLE-DB Command tasks, each one inserting into the appropriate table? This would offer the advantage, theoretically, of allowing me to grab the identity-based surrogate primary key from the first of the three inserts in order to enable the two subsequent inserts.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance,
Dan

Multiple Columns With Different Values OR Single Column With Multiple Criteria?
Hi,

I have multiple columns in a Single Table and i want to search values in different columns. My table structure is

col1 (identity PK)
col2 (varchar(max))
col3 (varchar(max))

I have created a single FULLTEXT on col2 & col3.
suppose i want to search col2='engine' and col3='toyota' i write query as

SELECT

TBL.col2,TBL.col3
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col2,'engine') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col3,'toyota') TBL2
ON

TBL.col1=TBL2.[key]

Every thing works well if database is small. But now i have 20 million records in my database. Taking an exmaple there are 5million record with col2='engine' and only 1 record with col3='toyota', it take substantial time to find 1 record.

I was thinking this i can address this issue if i merge both columns in a Single column, but i cannot figure out what format i save it in single column that i can use query to extract correct information.
for e.g.;
i was thinking to concatinate both fields like
col4= ABengineBA + ABBToyotaBBA
and in search i use
SELECT

TBL.col4
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABBToyotaBBA"') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
Result = 1 row

But it don't work in following scenario
col4= ABengineBA + ABBCorola ToyotaBBA

SELECT

TBL.col4
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABB*ToyotaBBA"') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]

Result=0 Row
Any idea how i can write second query to get result?

Display Multiple Columns Into One Column
My first ASP.NET/SQL project. I'm creating an Asset Management DB. I wish to view the Asset number, the full name of the user it's assigned to and the Make and Model of each record in the DB. However assets are split into different categories e.g. monitors, PCs, Preinters etc. and they are all in different tables. The SQL below displays the asset number, Name of person assigned and the model of the asset.
SELECT Hardware.AssetNo, [User].FullName, MonitorModel.Model, PCModel.Model AS Expr1, PrinterModel.Model AS Expr2
FROM Hardware INNER JOIN
[User] ON Hardware.UserID = [User].UserID INNER JOIN
Model ON Hardware.ModelID = Model.ModelID LEFT OUTER JOIN
MonitorModel ON Model.MonitorModelID = MonitorModel.MonitorModelID LEFT OUTER JOIN
PCModel ON Model.PCModelID = PCModel.PCModelID LEFT OUTER JOIN
PrinterModel ON Model.PrinterModelID = PrinterModel.PrinterModelID
This outputs:-
Asset number     FullName     Model     Expr1     Expr2
00000                User Name   Model     NULL      NULL
00001                User Name   NULL      Model     NULL
00002                User Name   NULL      NULL      Model
However what i hope to acheive is output Model, Expr1, Expr2 into one column like so:-
Asset number     FullName     Model
00000                User Name   Model
Can i do this in the SQL or do i have to do it in my ASP.NET (VB) Page?

photo1.jpg, john smith, photo2.jpg, jane doe, photo3.jpg, bob brown

Normally, I would just query the data and have the client data loop over the dataset to create the required output, however in this application it is not an option...

Parse Delimited Data In Column To Multiple Columns
I'm working on a sales commission report that will show commissions for up to 5 sales reps for each invoice. The invoice detail table contains separate columns for the commission rates payable to each rep, but for some reason the sale srep IDs are combined into one column. The salesrep column may contain null, a single sales rep id, or up to five slaes rep IDs separated by the '~' character.

So I'd like to parse the rep IDs from a single column (salesreplist) in my invoice detail table (below) to multiple columns (RepID1, RepID2, RepID3, RepID4,RepID5) in a temp table so I can more easily calculate the commission amounts for each invoice and sales rep.

Here is my table:

CREATE TABLE invcdtl(
invoicenum int,
salesreplist [text] NULL,
reprate1 int NULL,
reprate2 int NULL,
reprate3 int NULL,
reprate4 int NULL,
reprate5 int NULL,
)

Here is some sample data:

1 A 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0
3 I~~~~ 15 0 0 0 0
4 A~B 5 5 0 0 0
5 I~F~T~K~G 5 5 2 2 2
6 A~B

As you can see, some records have trailing delimiters but some don't. This may be a result of the application's behavior when multiple reps are entered then removed from an invoice. One thing for sure is that when there are multiple reps, the IDs are always separated by '~'

Can anyone suggest a solution?

Multiple Columns Index/Key (does It Free Me From Creating A Single Column Indexes???)
I hope i'm in the right place, but thanks anyway....

Actually i have 2 questions (regarding sql-server Indices/Keys):

 

1) I have an index, which is consisted of 4 columns.

    I've read elsewhere that this index functions (as well) as an index (single column

    index) on the first column of this multi-column index.

 

    Does this mean that if i'd like to have (in addition) Indices on all of the 4 columns

    seperately i need to define only 3???

 

2) I have a unique key consisted of multiple columns.

    I'd like to save an index to this combination of columns as well (to speed up

    things in DB...).

    Does the definition of a multiple-columns key free me from defining the multiple-

    columns index???

    can anyone explain the main diference between Keys and Indices???

Obtaining Data To Be Displayed In Multiple Columns From Multiple Rows
 

Hello All,
 
I am rather new to reporting on SQL Server 2005 so please be patient with me.
 
I need to create a report that will generate system information for a server, the issue im having is that the table I am having to gather the information from seems to only allow me to pull off data from only one row.
 
For example,. Each row contains a different system part (I.e. RAM) this would be represented by an identifier (1), but I  to list each system part as a column in a report
 
The table (System Info) looks like:-
 
ID | System part |
1  | RAM
2  | Disk Drive
10| CPU
11| CD ROM |
 
Which
 
 
So basically I need it to look like this.
 
Name | IP | RAM | Disk Drive|
----------------------------------------------
A | 127.0.0.1 | 512MB | Floppy
 
So Far my SQL code looks like this for 1 item
SELECT SYSTEM  PART

DTS - Split Single Source Record (text) To Multiple Target (sql)
I am using DTS and VBScript in DataPump tasks in order to transfer large amounts of data from text files to an SQL database.

As the database uses a normalized schema, there is often the case of inserting multiple records in a destination table from various fields of the same record of the source text file.

For example, if the source record contains information about goods sold like date, customer, item code, item name and total amount, and does so for a maximum of 3 goods per sale (row), therefore has the structure:

[date], [custid], [code1], [name1], [amount1], [code2], [name2], [amount2], [code3], [name3], [amount3]

trying to transfer that record to a [SALES] target table (in a normalized database), we would have to split each source record as follows:

[date], [custid], [code1], [name1], [amount1]
[date], [custid], [code2], [name2], [amount2]
[date], [custid], [code3], [name3], [amount3]

What is the best way to do this using DTS?

I have tried using a datapump task and VBScript, and I guess it has to do with the DTSTransformStat_**** constants, but none of those I used seems to work

Search In Fulltextindexes For Multiple Searchterms In Multiple Columns
I want to search in fulltextindexes for multiple searchterms in multiple columns. The difficulty is:
I don't want only the records with columns that contains both searchterms.
I also want the records of which one column contains one of the searchterm ans another column contains one of the searchterms.

For example I search for NETWORK and PERFORMANCE in two columns.
Jobdescr_________________________|Jobtext
Bad NETWORK PERFORMANCE________|Slow NETWORK browsing in Windows XP
Bad application PERFORMANCE_______|Because of slow NETWORK browsing, the application runs slow.

I only get the first record because JobDescr contains both searchterms
I don't get the second record because none of the columns contains both searchterms

I managed to find a workaround:

SELECT T3.jobid, T3.jobdescr
FROM (SELECT jobid FROM dba.job WHERE contains(jobdescr, 'network*') or CONTAINS(jobtext, 'network*') ) T1
INNER JOIN (SELECT jobid FROM dba.job WHERE contains(jobdescr, 'performance*') or CONTAINS(jobtext, 'performance*')) T2 ON T2.Jobid = T1.Jobid
INNER JOIN (SELECT jobid, jobdescr FROM dba.job) T3 ON T3.Jobid = T1.Jobid OR T3.Jobid = T2.JobId
It works but i guess this will result in a heavy database load when the number of searchterms and columns will increase.

Does anyone know a better solution?

Thanks in advance Bart Rouw

Processing Multiple Rows And Multiple Columns In SSIS
 I previously posted a problem with result set bindings but I have not been able to resolve my problem.  I guess all this comes with being new to programming in this environment!  Anyway, I am trying to figure out how to process from an ADO.NET connection multiple rows with multiple columns.  I have to read and manipulate each row.  I was originally looking at using a foreach loop but have not been able to get it to work.  One reply to my previous thought I should be using a data task to accomplish this.  Could someone tell me the best way to handle this situation?  As a note, I am new to programming in SSIS and basically trying to learn it as I go so please bear with me!  Thanks in advance!

How Do I Split A Column Result By A Nonalphanumeric Character?
I have a column that returns client numbers.
The client numbers are 4-6 characters in length.  A period (.) is added to the end of the client number, and then one last digit (1-4) is affixed at the end to denote a categorization.
In SQL, I need to figure out how to divide these results into two columns, one for the client number and one for the categorization number.
EG:  client #4334.1 would become 4334 for client # and 1 for categorization number
or
         Client #424561.3 would become 424561 for Client # and 3 for categorization number.
I have to strip out the period in the process and leave myself with just the numeric characters divided into two columns.
Ive been researching my brains out on string queries and substring queries and I can't figure out how to parse out the period and/or to have SQL understand that I need everything BEFORE the period for one column and everything AFTER the period for the second.
Is it possible to do this?  I really need help on this one.
Thank you :)

Comparing A Column List Split To A Table.
Let me see if I can explain my situation clearly.I have a table with the columns:answer_id, question_id, member_id, answer- answer_id is the primary key for the table.- question_id relates to another table with questions for a user. Thetable holds the question and the possible choices in a varchar fieldseparated by a delimiter.- member_id is self-explanatory- answer is a varchar field of all the choices the user selected,separated by a delimiter.Here is my problem.I am trying to search all members that have answered, say, question_id= 2 where they selected 'brown' as one of their choices.i can do this if they selected ONLY that item, but not multiple items.The problem is this portionanswer in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist.....I need this to be something like....function_to_return_all_separated_answers(answer) in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlistThe current way, it is only returning members that have an answer'Brown', not 'Brown, Blue' in their answer field. Make any sense? So,what I need to do is separate the list of answers and say :select member_id from profile_answers whereANY ANSWER in function_to_split(answer) MATCHES ANY OF THESE (selectvalu from dbo.iter_intlist...It seems I might have to join or something, I am just a little lostright now.Here is my proc.ALTER procedure search_detailed_get_ids@question_id as integer,@answers as varchar(8000),@member_ids ntextasdeclare @v as varchar(8000)--get the delimited string of all possible answersset @v = (select bind_data from profiles_questions where question_id =@question_id)--prepare it for the function only accepting 1 charset @v = replace(@v, '||', '|')--gimme all members that matchselect member_id from profiles_answers where question_id = @question_idand answer in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@v, '|') where listpos in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@answers, ',')))and member_id in (select valu from dbo.iter_intlist_to_table(@member_ids, ','))returngo

How To Split A Delimited Column Into Mulitple Rows In The Dataflow?
I'm sure there is probably a very easy solution that I am just not seeing or can't Google...

I have a DataFlow that includes a column of Delimited values (i.e. Value1,Value2,etc..). As this DataFlow is populating a parent table, I need split the values into their own dataflow and populate a child table. I've tried a script transformation and couldn't figure out how to accept 1 delimited input row and output multiple rows after a split. Any ideas?

TIA,
Matthew
