Split Single File Over Two Tables.
I have an input file with fixed-width columns that I want to import into two tables.. 5 of the input columns go to 1 table and the remaining 15 go to another table. What's a good way to do this in SSIS?
TIA,

Exporting Multiple Tables To A Single File
I need to export data from multiple tables into one single file. The big problem here is that the tables will have different column types. I am attempting to create something that allows users to be able to send me the contents of their tables's, through either email or ftp. I would prefer to make it easier for them so they only have to deal with one file, instead of the multiple files that bcp and dts create when exporting from multiple tables. I was thinking of using DTS or BCP and then join (append) the files (either zip them or append the files together in some fashion), but I was hoping that there was an easier method out there. Any ideas on how I may accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. Andy

Combining Multiple Tables Into A Single Flat File Destination
Hi, I want to combine a series of outputs from tsql queries into a single flat file destination using SSIS. Does anyone have any inkling into how I would do this. I know that I can configure a flat file connection manager to accept the output from the first oledb source, but am having difficulty with subsequent queries. e.g. output personID, personForename, personSurname, 1, pf, langan ***Roles roleID, roleName 1, developer 2, architect 3, business analyst 4, project manager 5, general manager 6, ceo ***joinPersonRoles personID,roleID 1,1 1,2 1,3 1,4 1,5 1,6

SQL View To Split Rows In Single Table...
I've been searching the forums and Google for some help splitting up rows in a table without any luck. I'm not quite sure what to even look for I have a table is MSSQL 2000 that looks as follows: Code: id custnum b1_email b2_email b1_sub b2_sub ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 123456 b1@host1.com b2@host1.com 0 0 2 654321 b1@host2.com b2@host2.com 1 0 3 321654 b1@host3.com b2@host3.com 0 1 Now... I am hoping create a view that splits these rows up so that only a single email address is on each row. I'd like to split it up as follows: Code: custnum email sub ---------------------------------- 123456 b1@host1.com 0 123456 b2@host1.com 0 654321 b1@host2.com 1 654321 b2@host2.com 0 321654 b1@host3.com 0 321654 b2@host3.com 1 Any help would be great!

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

Design -- Should This Be Split Up Into A Few Tables?
I'm grappling with this design problem right now: I have a table of users. Every user has an e-mail address and (hashed) password. Some of those users work for a company, and some of them do not. Of those who do not work for a company, some are salespeople who sell to one or more companies. Some users are simply administrators who don't work for a specific company. So here's what my users table looks like right now: "UserID, Email, Password, CompanyID (Nullable), IsAdmin" And here's my companies table: "CompanyID, CompanyName, SalespersonID" Of course, I could separate it out and make a Users table, an Employees table, and a Salespeople table. The way the relationship works out, though, I could use the same ID number for all three tables, and that indicates to me that perhaps they all belong in the same table. It seems silly, after all to have a Salespeople table whose only field is "UserID." Two factors of the first design concern me: First is the fact that a salesperson could also have a company. I guess I could write a check constraint to prevent this, but doesn't having the companyID in the Users table violate a normalization rule? Maybe? The second is the fact that the Companies table relies upon Users, which in turn relies upon Companies. In OOP, this usually isn't a good thing, but I'm not sure whether it's cause for concern in a relational database. Anyway, I really don't know what I should be doing with this design. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, -Starwiz

Big Table(?) Or Split Between Tables?
Hi Guys I have an application that runs on several sites that has a table with 36 columns mostly ints och small varchars. I currently have only one table that stores the data and five indexes and since the table on one location (and others soon) has about 18 million rows I have been trying to come up with a better solution (but only if needed, I dont think I have to tell you that I am a programmer and not an dba). The db file size with all the indexes is more then 10gb, in it self is not an problem but is it a bad solution to have it that way? The questions are: Are there any big benefits if i split it into several smaller tables or even smaler databases and make the SPs that gets the data aware that say 2006 years data is in table a and so on? Its quite important that there are fast SELECTS and that need is far more important then to decrease the size of the database file and so on. How many rows is okay to have in one table (with 25 columns) before its too big? Thanks in advance. Best regards Johan, Sweden.

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) )

How To Split Out Table Rows Into 3 Tables
I imported all rows of my txt file using SSIS 2005 into a table. I am now trying to figure out how to split out the header, payment rows, and maintenance rows. First, some information. An example of table results is here: http://www.webfound.net/split.txt The table has just one field of type varcha(100) because the incoming file is a fixed length file at 100 bytes per row The header rows are the rows with HD in them...then followed by detail rows for that header (see here http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg). I need to 1) Split out the header into a header table 2) Split out the maintenance rows (related to the header) into a maint table 3) Split out the payment rows (related to the header) into a payment table I'll need to maintain a PK/FK relationship between each Header and it's corresponding maint and payment rows in the other 2 tables. To determine if it's a payment vs. maintenance row, I need to compare chars 30 - 31. If it contains 'MT' then you know it's a maintenance row, else it's a payment row. How in the hell do I do this???

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

How To Assign Unique PKs And FKs On Split Of Txt Rows Into DB Tables
SSIS 2005 Ok, I have a task in SSIS that does the following and works: 1) Brings in a txt file 2) Using a conditional component, checks for a value in the row. 3) Based on the value, splits the row into one of 3 tables (Header, Maintenance, or Payment) Here is a print screen of what I have so far which splits Header rows into it's own table, Maintenance rows into its own table, and Payment Rows into its own table: http://www.webfound.net/qst_how_to_add_header_PK_and_FKs.JPG Here is a print screen of the conditional split: http://www.webfound.net/conditional_split.jpg Please take a look at the txt file here before it's processed: http://www.webfound.net/split.txt http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg Notice that the pattern is a header row, followed by it's corresponding detail rows. The detail rows are either Maintenance or Payment rows. I need to somehow during the Script component or some other way, to assign a unique HeaderID (PK) to each of the header rows and add that ID to it's corresponding Maintenance and Payment detail rows in their corresponding tables as a PK. The problem is 1) I don't know how to do this in the flow of the components as I have it now 2) How do I tell it to create a new Header ID and Header FKs for the detail rows based off of each new Header row? In the end (much later on in my entire package), the goal is to be able to run a stored proc to join and select the Header and Details rows back into a final table so I can then do more processing such as split each header and detail rows into their own txt files, etc....I don't need to go into details why but just know that this is the goal, therefore I need to relate each header row with their corresponding detail rows that are split off into a MaintenanceRow and PaymentRowTable

Need To Find An Easy Way To Split A Column In Table Without Using Cursor Or Temp Tables
Hi , I have two tables within a SQL database. The 1st table has an identified column and column which lists one of more email identifers for a second table, e.g. ID Email -- ---------- 1 AS1 AS11 2 AS2 AS3 AS4 AS5 3 AS6 AS7 The second table has a column which has an email identifier and another column which lists one email address for that particular identifier, e.g. ID EmailAddress --- ------------------ AS1 abcstu@emc.com AS2 abcstu2@emc.com AS3 abcstu3@emc.com AS4 abcstu4@em.com AS5 abcstu5@emc.com AS6 abcstu6@emc.com AS7 abcstu7@emc.com AS11 abcstu8@emc.com I need to create a stored procedure or function that: 1. Selects an Email from the first table, based on a valid ID, 2. Splits the Email field of the first table (using the space separator) so that there is an array of Emails and then, 3. Selects the relevant EmailAddress value from the second table, based on a valid Email stored in the array Is there any way that this can be done directly within SQL Server using a stored procedure/function without having to use cursors?

Conditional Split On Field In Csv File
I know this should be simple but I can't figure it out. I am reading in a csv file to a conditional split task, all I want to do is split the file based on a field. Some values in field will have a suffix say ABCD while others wont. So my conditional split says Right(FieldA,4)=="ABCD" which then splits file in two directions or at least it's meant to. Problem is that it does not work. I think it has something to do with the field type in the csv file although I have tried using a Data Conversion task but to no avail all the field values with ABCD suffix are ignored by my conditional split and head off the same way as other values. Funny thing is is that if I manually add a value to the file with a suffix of ABCD and run task again then the conditional split works on the manually added row and all rows with suffix of ABCD. It's like it does not recognise previous values as string until one is added manually. Thanks

SQLCE V3.5: Single SDF With Multiple Tables Or Multiple SDFs With Fewer Tables
Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are: 1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup. 1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types. 1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data. When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions, Bob

Use Single Table Or Multiple Separate Tables?
Hi, We are building an application for online system for people to place ADs for selling various used items like Car, Electronics, Houses, Books etc. If someone selling a car then he can fill out headline, year, make, model, mileage, transmission, condition, color, price, description, contact etc. Similarly if someone selling a digital camera he will fillout headline, memory, zoom, megapixel, maker, model, color, batter, description etc. Option 1: I can have a main table to hold the common attributes of all different types of ADs (headline, images, contact, price, color, condition, description) + 1 table to store string values of all ADs (car: maker, model, square feet (if house), memory, megapixel (camera) etc) + 1 table to store the droplist select values(car: transmission, door, seat etc; house: year_built) pros: single table for all ADs. unique IDs for all ADs, easy to extend as new attributes can be dropped easily. cons: lot of physical reads of 2nd and 3rd table from join. 10 times physical reads compared to option 2 when reading 5000 records. Option 2: have different set of table for each AD type. Car will have its own main table + 1 table to store multiselect list box values. Similarly housing will have its own set of tables pros: 10% less physical read than option 1. cons: hard to add new attributes. We have to modify the main table by adding one column. Query will go to different table based on the category. Do you have any suggestions on which way to go?Thanks

Reportviewer - How To Link Multiple Tables Into A Single Dataset
Hi, I want to design a report in which it will contain fields derived from 2 different stored procedures. I understand a 'table' can display data from a single dataset. How can i bind these two stored procedures into a single dataset so as when i click on the table and use its property 'DataSetName', to be able to select the dataset which holds all columns from stored proc 1 and stored proc 2. How can i link multible tables ( multible stored procedures with different column names in each one) into a single dataset to feed the report? Thank you George

Report Generation Using A Single Dataset, Which Combines Two Tables.
Hi, I have an issue in generating the report in sql reporting services. I need to display a report in a table format. The datas of the table should be from two different sql tables. I have tried to write a stored procedure that returns two result sets from two different tables. As reporting services takes datas only from the first result set, i tried to write two different stored procedures each displays one result set. Then i have created two datasets with that two different stored procedure. Even then i cannot proceed as i was not able to use two different dataset in a single table because i was setting the datasetname to one dataset, when i try to retrieve the fields from another dataset i was able to retrieve only first and count values. Then i tried using sub reports. As sub reports for a dataregion(table) repeats for every row of the main report i was not able to fetch the correct datas. Atlast i have tried combining the query using join and wrote a single stored procedure. This stored procedure returns a single result set retrieves data from two tables satisfying the conditions. The issue i am facing with this is, the first table has only one row satisfying the condition and the second table has three rows satisfying the same condition, as i am using join query for the three rows returned by the second table the first table datas are getting duplicated for the rest of the rows in the second table. As I found using join query is the only resolution for the output which I need, and also I have to avoid the duplication of the records. Hence let me know for any solutions. I have shown the sample datas that is duplicating which is indicated as bold. Phonenumber, Attemptdate and calloutcome are from first table and start time and endtime is from second table. As there are three different datas for the second table, first table datas are duplicated Phone Number Attempt Date Call OutCome Start Time End Time 843-577-0800 2007-09-10 15:20:00.000 Contact with Prospect - Expressed Interest 15:08 15:12 843-577-0800 2007-09-10 15:20:00.000 Contact with Prospect - Expressed Interest 15:25 15:25 843-577-0800 2007-09-10 15:20:00.000 Contact with Prospect - Expressed Interest 15:26 15:27 Thanks for any help in advance Thanks, Sangeethaa

I would like to update/insert data into a Orderhearder Table along with the related details into the corrosponding OrderDetails Tables. Can this be done using a single stored procedure or do we have to make one call to the UpdateOrderHeader Stored Procedure and loop thru all the details and call the UpdateOrderDetails Stored Procedure. How do we handle the Transactions in such a case ? Thanks Anurag Agarwal

How To Delete Unwanted Data From Multiple Different Tables With One Single SQL Query?
This a microsoft SQL 2000 server. I have a DB with mutliple tables that have a column called "Date_stamp", which is used as a primary ID. Here is my problem: Some of tables have a bad datetime entry for the "Date_stamp". The bad entry is '2008-3-18". I need to delete this entry from every single table that has a name similary to 'Elect_Sub%Daily'. I know how to get the user table names from the DB as follows: SELECT name FROM dbo.sysobjects WHERE xtype = 'U' and name like 'Elect_Sub%Daily' What I need to do is have a query that will basically scroll through the tables name produced by the above query and search and delete the entries that read '2008-3-18". delete from tableName where Date_Stamp = '2008-3-18'

Back Everything Up In A Single File?
Greetings,Our former SQL Server 2000 DBA backed up everything in a single diskfile. By everything I mean, full backup, differential backup andtransaction logs. See below for details of how the backup is currentlyset up. When I did 'view contents' of DBBackup, I saw it contained themixture of log, full and diff backups of verious dates. She has quit.Other coworkers said (in a not-sure tone) she was able to restore thedatabases from such a single file, although nobody ever saw or knew howshe did recovery. My knowledge about SQL Server, especially regardingits backup/restore is limited. But I've ever worked with otherdatabases, e.g. Oracle, MySQL and Postgres. I think log backups, fullbackups and differential backups should be completely separated. Also,in each type of backups, each database should have its own backup file.Please advise.=====Log backup:CREATE PROCEDURE sp_lbackup ASBackup log AGEP To DBBackupBackup log careerfairs To DBBackupBackup log CoEdocuments To DBBackupBackup log committee To DBBackupBackup log conference To DBBackupGOFull backup:CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.sp_fullbackup ASBackup database AGEP To DBBackup WITH INITBackup database CoEdocuments To DBBackupBackup database careerfairs To DBBackupBackup database committee To DBBackupBackup database conference To DBBackupGODiff backup:CREATE PROCEDURE sp_diffbackup ASBackup database AGEP To DBBackup with differentialBackup database careerfairs To DBBackup with differentialBackup database CoEdocuments To DBBackup with differentialBackup database committee To DBBackup with differentialBackup database conference To DBBackup with differentialGO=====Thanks in advance for any help,Bing
