CSV Export Problem With Multiple Lines
Hello, I try to realize a report with multiple lines like this: Code Snippet 230 CALLS_OFFERED 230 CALLS_LOST 232 CALLS_OFFERED 232 CALLS_LOST A user of the reporting service should be able to export this as a text file i.e. csv is only option in SSRS. First try: The report definition has multiple details lines like the report. If a user exports this via csv the details are seperated by comma. So I tried to define FieldDelimiter as CRLF in the report to to have the details in seperated lines. This end with a error message (maybe because RecordDelimiter is also set to CRLF ) Second try: The report contains only one details line which containing vbcrlf like: Code Snippet =RSet(Fields!Product_Orig_Number.Value,3) & LSet("CALLS_OFFERED",20) & vbcrlf & RSet(Fields!Product_Orig_Number.Value,3) & LSet("CALLS_LOST",20) Now I'm getting Quotes around a record. I also tried to set Qualifier to something other but I'm not able to set it to have no additional characters in the export file. Is there a way to suppress the Qualifier / Quotes? Thanks! flyall

Is there another way to do multiple grouping ? Every thing is working fine except for getting one extra blank page at the end of report with only header and footer. I have properly checked the body height and width and page margins. It has something to do with list but i cant figure out what.

Produces Multiple Lines, Need To Populate Single Line
I need to, ultimately, create a flatfile for exporting insurance information to a third-party vendor. Each individual is to have no more than 1 line per file, which contains their coverage information, if any, on 4 different type of insurance. What i need is for 2 fields in a table to determine the output for multiple fields in the flatfile. What I have so far works, to an extent. If I have insurance types 1, 2, 4 (of types 1-4) required output is (__ = 2 blank spaces): 1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == Y N __ MD XX Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ Y N __ DN XX If they have coverage, A always = Y, B always = N, C always = blank(null), D is their ins. type, E is their cov. type(CASE statement). if they DON'T have that type of coverage, A always = N and the remaining field are NULL. After a lot of work, and scouring a forum or 2, I attempted a whole lot of CASE functions. Below is an sample of code representing the 1x statements. This same code is repeated 4 times with the 1x being altered with 2x, 3x, 4x. CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE WHEN '10' THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END AS 1A, CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE WHEN '10' THEN 'N' ELSE ' ' END AS 1B, ' ' AS 1C, CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE WHEN '10' THEN HB.BENEFIT_PLAN ELSE ' ' END AS 1D, CASE HB.PLAN_TYPE WHEN '10' THEN (CASE WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='1' THEN 'XX' WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='2' THEN 'YY' WHEN HB.COVRG_CD ='3' THEN 'ZZ' ELSE 'WW' END) ELSE ' ' END AS 1E, It works to an extent. While the desires/required output it above, the output this produces (same scenario) is: 1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ 1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == N __ __ __ __ Y N __ MD XX N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ 1A 1B 1C 1D 1E 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4A 4B 4C 4D 4E == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ N __ __ __ __ Y N __ DN XX While there is supposed to be 1 line, regardless of number of insurance types, it only produces 1 line per type. I first tried this in Access, and was able to get it to work, but it required multiple queries resulting in a crosstab, export to Excel and manually manipulate the data, export to text file to manipulate, import back into Excel to manipulate, import back into Access and finally export into a flatfile. Far too much work to produce a file which is why I'm trying to convert it to raw SQL. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

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

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?

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 Vasilis Siatravanis, siatravanisv@interamerican.gr , vasilliss@hotmail.com

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.

Export Data To Csv: Escape New Lines?
Hi, I need to convert from mssqlto Postgres and I need to export all MS-SQL table data to a CSV or TXT file (one file per table) Presumably, all data per row (of a table) must be in one line. Then when you copy to another database, a new line of data means a new row in the table. However, MS SQL is exporting a large varchar text field as multiple lines. The data itself is many lines, so exporting it causes the data for one row to fall onto many lines. My question: How do I escape new lines? When MS SQL exports the data, I want to replace all NEW LINES / carriage returns by /n or by <br> tag (since the data will be for web use). (pls note I am not actually handling the ms sql database, so any response would be greatly appreciated as I advise the person in charge of the mssql db accordingly). Thanks a lot!
