How To Split Data From The MS SQL 2000 Database?
Hi All,
We are working on a project, (C#.Net 2003, MS SQL 2000) where database is growing as 2 to 3 GB per day (Scanned Documents are storing in Database). There is only one table in the database. Currently database size is grown upto 200 GB. For safety reason we are planning to split the database accoring to one key field in the table say Book_no.
Please guide/suggest me how to split the database now on the SQL query like "SELECT * FROM master_records WHERE book_no=1"
And later how to merge/combine all these splitted database into one.
I thought of using "Data Export" and later "Import with Append" but don't know whethere it will effective or not? Any method or tool available to Split the database table and later combine them to make again a single one?
Please help me, its urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Transferring Data From MSDE Database To SQL 2000 Database
Hi all,Here is my situation.I have an application that uses SQL 2000. The client has a programthat uses MSDE. The client MUST have the MSDE version of the Database.What I have done is to create a SQL 2000 Database that is exactly likethe MSDE version. What I wish to do, is at regularly scheduledintervals, update the SQL 2000 Data with the newest MSDE Data.On my clients server, they have both MSDE and SQL 2000 installedthe msde has a user name and password to access it, whereas the SQL2000 uses authenticated mode to access it.What I'm trying to do is to write a bunch of SQL Queries, that I canrun that will copy over the new Data, but I'm having problems accessingthe msde database in query analyzer from the SQL DatabaseCan anyone give me hints on the best way to try thisThanksScott

Data Flow Split
I'm trying to figure out how in a Data Flow Transform I can split some data. I have data coming through that has a PK (col1) and datetime col (col2). This data may contain multiple rows for the PK, col1. I want to be able to take the min datetime for each row for col1 and send down one path and all other rows down another path eg. There are 20 rows in the Data Flow coming through. Col1 has value 1 for first 10 rows, value 2 for remaining 10 rows and there are different values for Col2 for all rows. Take the Min value in Col2, where col1=1 and also the min value in Col2, where col1=2 and send down one path. Send all other rows down another path. I thought of using the Conditional Split Transform but my Expression knowledge isin't experienced enough (I'm looking into this) and I'm not sure if it can be done. I also though of using the Multi-Cast Transform and then using the Aggregate function, on each data set. While I can do this easily for the first data flow. SELECT col1, MIN(col2) FROM tbl1 GROUP BY col1 which is easily done in the Aggregate transform, the other side of the data flow I can't see how can be done using the Aggregate Transform SELECT col1 FROM tbl1 WHERE col2 NOT IN (SELECT MIN(col2) FROM tbl1 GROUP BY col1). Are either methods feasilble or is there another way. I want to avoid putting this data into temp tables in a SQL database and manipulating the data from there. The data has been extracted from a flat file source. Any help and ideas welcome.

T-SQL To Split Data From One Table Into Two Tables?
What's the best way to convert a large set of records from a simple schema where all fields are in one table to a schema where fields are split across two tables? The two table setup is necessary for reasons not worth getting into here. Doing this via cursor is pretty straightforward, but is there a comparable set-based solution? Here are sample create table commands. Obviously, the example below is simplified for discussion purposes. -- One record from here will produce a record in TargetParentRecords and a record in TargetChildRecords for a total of two records. CREATE TABLE OriginalSingleTableRecords ( ID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL, ColumnA VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, ColumnB VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT PK_OriginalSingleTableRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ID) ) CREATE TABLE TargetParentRecords ( ParentID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL, ColumnA VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT PK_TargetParentRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ParentID) ) -- Each row in this table must link to a TargetParentRecords row CREATE TABLE TargetChildRecords ( ID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL, ParentID INT NOT NULL, -- References TargetParentRecords.ParentID ColumnB VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT PK_TargetChildRecords PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ID) )

Retrieving Data From A DB Based On Output Of A Conditional Split
This is probably an easy question, and I just can't find the solution. I've searched extensively, but I am probably just not searching for exactly what I need. Basically, I have a Conditional Split. What I need to do is for each row coming out of my split, I need to SELECT some data from another database based on one of the fields and then place the data from the DB into a file for later processing. Seems pretty simple, considering the power of SSIS. Using tools such as OLE DB Command didn't help - the data that comes out of the OLE DB Command is the input data, not the data returned by the command. How can I do this? Thank you! Nolan

Deadlock Problem? 3 Way Conditional Split Of Data From One Table To Another Never Completes
I have a source table which I'm splitting 3 ways based on a column value, but the target is the same OLE DB destination table. One conditional path is to a Multi-Cast two way split to same OLE DB gestination table. The default split is to a flat file for logging unknown record types. For a test I have data for only the 3 column values I want, but I'm having trouble with the process completing. If I pre-filter the data going into the source table by one or two values I can get the process to complete even if one split is to the multicast. If I include all three data types in the source table, I get different results depending on the order in which the conditions are specified - sometimes only two split paths are executed; other times all three are executed, but in some cases only one path of the multicast split is executed. In any case, when the three source data types are used in the test, the process never competes - the pathes are in a yellow condition and never complete. Am I creating some kind of deadlock situation by having the source data directed to the same target table via 4 splits? Any help you can provide is appreciated. Thanks.

Split DB - Static Controls Versus User Data - Feedback On Plan
In my prototype, I've got i) the (relatively) static control files (various control values) and ii) the user datain the same DB (SQL Server Express). Both types of files are entirely accessed through table adapters. I'm thinking I'd like to split the data into two databases, one for just the static control files, and the other for the user data. Then split the app into two separate apps, one for user data, one for just the control tables. I'm thinking this will be more secure, easier to maintain and rebuild if something fails, other reasons (...?) I'm hoping to get some general feedback on the reasonability of doing this, and on my general approach. My first approximation of a plan to do this would be:0) lot's of backups first and during!A) Copy the current DB, rename as "Control-something, delete the "user" tables from it, then delete the control tables from the original "Data" DB B) similarly copy, rename, split the app files into "control" and "user" appsC) in the both of the resulting apps 1) create a new connection string to the "new" control DB 2) Edit the tableadapters as necessary to use the new connection string D) Figure out where there needs to be any "cross over" links between the two apps (dunno right now, users won't touch app controls, though maybe some administrators would....) E) Plan to deploy both DB's and both apps as appropriate, with separate access URL's for the two different apps. So the questions are 0) Any real advantages to doing this, for security, maintenance, etc?1) Is this a "commonly used" approach, or do most people just keep the data and controls in one DB?2) Any issues with one app / multiple DB;s (it's going to be a single server app for the first release.)3) Any issues with simultaneously accessing one DB from two apps?4) Are there any big missing pieces in this conversion plan? Any feedback on this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Combine Data And Split Into Separate Txt Files For Each Header/detail Row Groupings
I€™ve created with the help of some great people an SSIS 2005 package which does the follow so far: 1) Takes an incoming txt file. Example txt file: http://www.webfound.net/split.txt The txt file going from top to bottom is sort of grouped like this Header Row (designated by €˜HD€™) Corresponding Detail Rows for the Header Row €¦.. Next Header Row Corresponding Detail Rows €¦and so on http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg 2) Header Rows are split into one table, Maintenance Detail Rows into another, and Payment Detail Rows into a third table. A uniqueID has been created for each header and it€™s related detail rows to form a PK/FK relationship as there was non prior to the import, only the relation was in order of header / related rows below it when we first started. The reason I split this out is so I can massage it later with stored proc filters, whatever€¦ Now I€™m trying to somehow bring back the data in those table together like it was initially using a query so that I can cut out each of the Header / Detail Row sections into their own txt file. So, if you look at the original txt file, each new header and it€™s related detail rows (example of a cut piece would be http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg) need to be cut out and put into their own separate txt file. This is where I€™m stuck. How to create a query to combine it all back into an OLE DB Souce component, then somehow read that souce and split out the sections into their own individual txt files. The filenames of the txt files will vary and be based on one of the column values already in the header table. Here is a print screen of my package so far: http://www.webfound.net/tasks.jpg http://www.webfound.net/Import_MaintenanceFile_Task_components.jpg http://www.webfound.net/DataFlow_Task_components.jpg Let me know if you need more info. Examples of the actual data in the tables are here: http://www.webfound.net/mnt_headerRows.txt http://www.webfound.net/mnt_MaintenanceRows.txt http://www.webfound.net/mnt_PaymentRows.txt Here's a print screen of the table schema: http://www.webfound.net/schema.jpg

Migrating Database Table Data From 2005 To 2000
I'm trying to get a database from SQL2005 to SQL2000. I already recreated the database in SQL2005 and I'm just trying to get some data from just a few tables. It doesn't appear the DTS or any export functionality is available in my version of SQL Express 2005...so how do I do this. I've tried installing everything I can find. I've also tried BCP but I keep getting these errors: SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]. SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. This is a LOCAL database and I have tried -T for trusted, I have also tried a username and password combination. The database is set to Allow Remote connections. Nothing is working.

Moving Files (split From An Existing Thread-SSIS Equivalent To DTS Transform Data Task Properties)
Hi JayH (or anyone). Another week...a new set of problems. I obviously need to learn .net syntax, but because of project deadlines in converting from DTS to SSIS it is hard for me to stop and do that. So, if someone could help me some easy syntax, I would really appreciate it. In DTS, there was a VBScript that copied a set of flat files from one directory to an archive directory after modifying the file name. In SSIS, the directory and archive directory will be specified in the config file. So, I need a .net script that retrieves a file, renames it and copies it to a different directory. Linda Here is the old VBScript Code: Public Sub Main() Option Explicit Function Main() Dim MovementDataDir Dim MovementArchiveDataDir Dim MovementDataFile Dim MovementArchiveDataFile Dim FileNameRoot Dim FileNameExtension, DecimalLocation Dim CurMonth, CurDay Dim FileApplicationDate Dim fso ' File System Object Dim folder Dim FileCollection Dim MovementFile '====================================================================== 'Create text strings of today's date to be appended to the archived file. FileApplicationDate = Now CurMonth = Month(FileApplicationDate) CurDay = Day(FileApplicationDate) If Len(CurMonth) = 1 Then CurMonth = "0" & CurMonth End If If Len(CurDay) = 1 Then CurDay = "0" & CurDay End If FileApplicationDate = CurMonth & CurDay & Year(FileApplicationDate) '===================================================================== ' Set the movement data directory from the global variable. MovementDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataDir").Value MovementArchiveDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataArchiveDir").Value fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") folder = fso.GetFolder(MovementDataDir) FileCollection = folder.Files ' Loop through all files in the data directory. For Each MovementFile In FileCollection ' Get the full path name of the current data file. MovementDataFile = MovementDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name ' Get the full path name of the archive data file. MovementArchiveDataFile = MovementArchiveDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name DecimalLocation = InStr(1, MovementArchiveDataFile, ".") FileNameExtension = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, DecimalLocation, Len(MovementArchiveDataFile) - DecimalLocation + 1) FileNameRoot = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, 1, DecimalLocation - 1) MovementArchiveDataFile = FileNameRoot & "_" & FileApplicationDate & FileNameExtension If (fso.FileExists(MovementDataFile)) Then fso.CopyFile(MovementDataFile, MovementArchiveDataFile) ' If the archive file was coppied, then delete the old copy. If (fso.FileExists(MovementArchiveDataFile)) Then fso.DeleteFile(MovementDataFile) End If End If Next fso = Nothing folder = Nothing FileCollection = Nothing Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success End Function

Bit-data From SQL Server 2000 (2005 Working, 2000 Doesn't)
Hi, I am trying to edit some data from a SQL2000-datasource in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a problem with a column that has bit-data and is used for selection. SQL2005 works fine when declaring <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="TRUE" Name="APL" Type="boolean" /> </SelectParameters>When running this code with SQL2000, there are no error-msgs, but after editing a record the "APL"-column looses its value of 1 and is set to 0. Looks like an issue with type-conversion, we've hit incompatibilities between SQL200 and 2005 with bit/boolean several times before. So, how is this done correctly with SQL2000? (I've tried setting the Type to "int16" -> err. Also setting Defval="1" gave an err) ThanksMichael

Importing Data From Pervasive 2000 To SQL Server 2000
I am working on bringing data into our SQL Server from a btreivedatabase through Pervasive.It seems to work, mostly, but I am having problems with dates.At first, all date conversions from btreive field type Date to SQLServer SmallDateTime would produce nothing but errors of this sort:ActiveX Scripting Transform 'DTSTransformation_1' encountered andinvalid data value for 'HomesteadDate' source column.Looking into the data on the pervasive side, many of the the datefields had no data in them.I tried to get around this by changing all lines that brought overdates from this:DTSDestination("HomesteadDate") = DTSSource("HomesteadDate")to this:IF ISDATE(DTSSource("HomesteadDate")) = 1 THENDTSDestination("HomesteadDate") = DTSSource("HomesteadDate") ELSEDTSDestination("HomesteadDate") = NULLWhat I have discovered since then, is that all my dates are simplyfailing the ISDATE check and returning null to the SQL Server, evenwhen it is a valid date.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Steve HoyerGPW, MI

To Split Or Not To Split
I have a database with a "large" table containing date based information Basically they're reservations. I've thought about creating a new table and adding any records from past years to this table. For the most part only current reservation need to be searchable, but in some circumstances it would be useful to be able to search through the archive too. so, my questions!!! Is 8,000 or so rows of data "large" and unwieldly in SQL terms? Would splitting this data into 2 tables - one small table for current and future reservations and one larger archive table then using a UNION SELECT query to make archive information seachable be a significant improvment on server resources/load or am I making the whole thing more complicated than it need be as 8,000 rows of data is nothing to worry about............. What did they say about a little bit of knowledge being a dangerous thing? Thanks in advance of any guidance to a neophyte!!?
