How do I insert data from a flat file or .csv file into an existing SQL database???

Here what I've come up with thus far and I but it doesn't work. Can someone please help? Let me know if there is a better way to do this... Idealy I'd like to write straight to the sql database and skip the datset all together...

strSvr = "vkrerftg"

StrDb = "Test_DB"

'connection String

strCon = "Server=" & strSvr & ";database=" & StrDb & "; integrated security=SSPI;"

Dim dbconn As New SqlConnection(strCon)

SSIS - Data Flow To Flat File - Insert At Start Of File

Oct 24, 2007

Hi all,

In a foreachloop, I am inserting records into a flat file which is working fine. But the thing is that as the file grows, it takes longer for it to locate the EOF(End of File) of the flat file so as to insert the records.

I have around 70-100 lines written to the file at each loop and there are more than 20k records to be looped. wihich means that at the end I should be having 1400k - 20000k line in the text file.


One solution would be to insert the records at the start of the file itself so that it does not has to lookup the EOF each time before writting.

Another would be to generate separate files and then merge it.

Any idea how can this can be done?


Beside this I have to zip the file and then SFTP to a given address.

Any suggestion or help would be welcome.

Copy Raw Data From A Flat File To A Database Table, BUT Do Not Insert Duplicates

Aug 2, 2007

Hi,

I'm new to SQL Server 2005 SSIS. I'm trying to do something very simple, but I cannot figure it out, PLEASE HELP!

I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.

Thank you,

Aldo

Bulk Insert - Flat File Data Into Table

Mar 12, 2015

I am running a set of SQL statements on a SQL server, to insert flat file data into a SQL table. The flat file is already FTP'ed to the SQL server. I seem to be getting an error, which is possibly pointing to a permissions issue

The statements:

BULK INSERT [Jedox_prod].[dbo].[B_BP_Customer]
FROM 'c:jedox_dailyjdcom4401.txt'
WITH
(
FIRSTROW = 2,
MAXERRORS = 0,
FIELDTERMINATOR = '|',
ROWTERMINATOR = '
'
)
GO

The error is :
Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot bulk load because the file "c:jedox_dailyjdcom4401.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 3(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 1815)

If it is permissions issue, how do I overcome this?

Insert Data From Flat File Into Serveral DB Tables Having Many-to-many Relations

Nov 4, 2007

Hi everyone,

I am new to SSIS and I thought maybe someone would give me tips for solving the problem I am facing.


Overview:
I want to insert data contained in a flat file into several DB tables, which have N-M relations.

For illustration, I would explain the problem on a very simple DB:
1. The database contains the following 3 tables:
EMPLOYEE (EMP_ID, EMP_NAME)
PROJECT (PROJ_ID, PROJ_NAME)
EMP_PROJ (EMP_ID, PROJ_ID) , where EMP_ID and PROJ_ID are foreign keys referencing records in the EMPLOYEE and PROJECT tables respectively.


2. Each entry in the falt file contains the following data:
EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, PROJ_ID, PROJ_NAME


3. In SSIS, I have created a Data Flow Task containing:
- a path from a Falt File Source to an SQL Server Destination (Table: Employee)
- a path from a Falt File Source to an SQL Server Destination (Table: Project)
- a path from a Falt File Source to an SQL Server Destination (Table: Emp_proj)

Note: I used SQL Server Destination, because I need to import a huge amount of data and I read that this component performs better than the OLE DB Destination!


Questions:
1. I would like to eliminate EMP_ID and PROJ_ID from the Flat File Source. Instead, I would like these fields to be generated automatically upon insertion.
a. How can I do this and propagate the generated key among the different paths, which I have explained previously?
b. Can I first generate the two keys somehow then the parallel insertions into the different tables should start using the generated keys?


2. Is my solution correct in the first place? Or is there another better way for inserting data which belong to N-N relations?


Thanks in adavance,
Samar

Bulk Insert Vs. Data Flow Task (different Row Results Using Flat File Source)

Nov 2, 2006

I'm importing a large csv file two different ways - one with Bulk Import Task and the other way with the Data Flow Task (flat file source -> OLE DB destination).

With the Bulk Import Task I'm putting all the csv rows in one column. With the Data Flow Task I'm mapping each csv value to it's own column in the SQL table.

I used two different flat file sources and got the following:

Flat file 1: Bulk Import Task = 12,649,499 rows; Data Flow Task = 4,215,817 rows
Flat file 2: Bulk Import Task = 3,403,254 rows; Data Flow Task = 1,134,359 rows

Anyone have any guess as to why this is happening?

Integration Services :: Data Load From Flat File To Database

Sep 22, 2015

I am having difficulties loading data from a flat file to a SQL Database. I am able to load some data but the rest gets kicked out for the following reasons:

1 – The field is varchar 50 and I would like to convert it to a date field
2 – The field contain periods (.) (Only 1 period in each row)
3 – The field contain blanks (NULLS)

How do I create a derived column that will bypass blanks (Nulls) and remove periods (.) in each row then convert column to a date field in SSIS? Looking for steps to create a derived date column using SSIS (derived task); convert it to a date column (09-19-2015); use functions to redirect the nulls and possibly remove the period (.)?

Unable To Edit Pre-defined Flat File Connection Manager Properties In The Flat File Destination Editor

Aug 24, 2007

Hi,

I am testing SSIS and have created a Flat File Destination. I defined the Flat File Connection as New for the first time and it worked fine. Now, I would like to go back and modify the Flat File Connection in the Flat File Destination Editor, but it allows only to create a New connection rather allowing me to edit the existing one. For testing, I can go back and create a new connection, but if my connection had 50-100 columns then it would be an issue to re-create it from scratch.

Did someone else faced this issue?


Thanks,
AQ

Flat File Connection Manager Throws Error When A Column Gets Added To The Flat File

Dec 27, 2006

Hi,

I have a situation where a tab limited text file is used to populate a sql server table.

The tab limited text file comes from a third party vendor. There are fixed number of columns we need to export to the sql server table. However the third party may add colums in the text file. Whenenver the text file has an added column (which we dont need to import) the build fails since the flat file connection manager does not create the metadata for it again. The problem goes away  where I press the button "Reset Columns" since it builds the metadata then. Since we need to build the tables everyday we cannot automate it using SSIS because the metadata does not change automatically. Is there a way out in SSIS?

Output Column Width Not Refected In The Flat File That Is Created Using A Flat File Destination?

May 11, 2006

I am transferring data from an OLEDB source to a Flat File Destination and I want the column width for all of the output columns to 30 (max width amongst the columns selected), but that is not refected in the Fixed Width Flat File that got created. The outputcolumnwidth seems to be the same as the inputcolumnwidth. Is there any other setting that I am possibly missing or is this a possible defect?

Any inputs will be appreciated.

Flat File Insert

Mar 23, 2007

Hi! I'm a newbie to SSIS and I'm trying to insert a flat file into a table.

The flat file contains some bad data so I want to insert the data into a text column.

I'm getting the following error below... It seems like SSIS cannot find the row delimiter, but I just want to load the file into a text column as a single row. I am able to insert the data to a text column in SQL 2000 DTS. Is there a way to do this in SQL 2005?

Please help... and Thanks in advance!!



[DTS.Pipeline] Error: The PrimeOutput method on component "Flat File Source" (1) returned error code 0xC0202092.

The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput().

The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing.

[Flat File Source [1]] Error: An error occurred while processing file \sss.sss on data row 1.

Insert Rows Into A Flat File

Sep 22, 2006

Hi!



I have a problem that I can´t understand.

I have rows in a table in a SQL Server 2005 that I want to send to a Flat file. When I am executing the task for the first time it is OK and works perfectly. But the problem is when I am trying to do it again. I seems like the path to the file and the filename dissappears after the first time and the execution failes with an error message that tells me that the file is invalid and don´t exists.

I don´t now why this is happening and it´s such an easy thing to do and I can´t make it work.

So please help me!

Regards,

Johanna

Converting Flat File To SQL2005 Table (Flat File From H***)

Feb 11, 2008

First, a couple of important bits of information. Until last week, I had never touched SISS, and therefore, I know very little about it. I just never had the need to use it...until now. I was able to convert my first 3 flat files to SQL2005 tables by right clicking on "SISS Package" and choosing "SISS Import and Export Wizard". That is the extent of my knowledge! So please, please, please be patient with me and be as descriptive as possible.

I thought I could attach some sample files to this post, but it doesn't look like I can. I'll just paste the information below in two separate code boxes. The first code box is the flat file specifications and the second one is a sample single line flat file similar to what I'm dealing with (the real flat file is over 2 gigs).

My questions are below the sample files.


Code Snippet
Record Length 400

Positions Length FieldName

Record Type 01
1,2 L=2 Record Type (Always "01")
3,12 L=10 Site Name
13,19 L=7 Account Number
20,29 L=10 Sub Account
30,35 L=6 Balance
36,37 L=1 Active
37,41 L=5 Filler
Record Type 02
1,2 L=2 Record Type (Always "02")
3,4 L=2 State
5,30 L=26 Address
31,41 L=11 Filler
Record Type 03
1,2 L=2 Record Type (Always "03")
3,6 L=4 Coder
7,20 L=14 Locator ID
21,22 L=2 Age
23,41 L=19 Filler
Record Type 04
1,2 L=2 Record Type (Always "04")
3,9 L=7 Process
10,19 L=10 Client
20,26 L=6 DOB
26,41 L=16 Filler
Record Type 05
1,2 L=2 Record Type (Always "05")
3,16 L=14 Guarantor
17,22 L=6 Guar Account
23,23 L=1 Active Guar
**There can be multiple 05 records, one for each Guarantor on the account**


and the single line flat file...



Code Snippet
01Site1 12345 0000098765 Y 02NY1155 12th Street 03ELL 0522071678 29 04TestingSmith,Paul071678 05Smith, Jane 445978N 05Smith, Julie 445989N 05Smith, Jenny 445915N 01Site2 12346 0000098766 N 02MN615 Woodland Ct 04InfoJones,Chris 012001 01Site3 12347 0000098767 Y 02IN89 Jade Street 03OWB 6429051282 25 04Screen New,Katie 879500





As you can see, each entry could have any number of records and multiples of some of the record types, with one exception, every entry must have a "01" record and can only have one "01" record. Oh, and each record has a length of 400.

I need to get this information into a SQL 2005 database so I can create a front end for accessing the data. Originally, I wanted one line for each account and have null values listed for entries that don't have a specific record. Now that I've looked at the data again, that doesn't look like a good idea. I think a better way to do it would be to create 5 different tables, one for each record type. However, records 2 through 5 don't have anything I can make a primary key. So here are my questions...


Is it possible to make 5 tables from this one file, one table for each of the record types?

If so, can I copy the Account number in record 01, position 13-19 in each of the subsequent record types (that way I could link the tables as needed)?

Can this be done using the SISS Import and Export Wizard to create the package? If not, I'm going to need some very basic step by step instructions on how to create the package.

Is SISS the best way to do this conversion or is there another program that would be better to use?
I know this is a huge question and I appreciate the help of anyone who boldly decides to help me! Thank you in advance and I welcome anyone's suggestions!

Insert Data In DataBase From Txt File

May 5, 2008



Hello.
My application reads one file with more or less than 80 000 rows(like 09905003101399800464520220080408710200070050000020 90604500012000 )
Based on the index of each character the row is splited in 8 columns and then i must verify that 5 of this columns are not allready in the database... if they are the row is a duplicate and will not be inserted.

Wich is the best way to do that?
To make 80000 cals to the database or to send the file as xml to the database and after that to parse it .......
or if you know any other way it would help me very much.

In this moment i m using the 80000 calls method and it takes ~20 hours.
Please advice.... any advice will be highly apreciated.

BULK INSERT Flat File With Only One Column

Jan 30, 2004

Hi,

I have a text file with a single column that i need to bulk insert into a table with 2 colums - an ID (with identity turned on) and col2

my text file looks like:

row1
row2
row3
...
row10

so my bulk insert i have like this:
BULK INSERT test FROM 'd: estBig.txt'
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '
'
)

but i get the error:

Server: Msg 4866, Level 17, State 66, Line 1
Bulk Insert fails. Column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 1. Make sure the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.

However, as you can see from the text file, there is only one column, so i dont have any field terminators.

Any ideas how to make this work?

Thanks.

Insert From Flat File Where Column 1 Not In Table

Aug 7, 2007

Hi Guys,

I hope this is easy stuff for you..
First of all i searched the forum but didnt exactly find what iam searching for:

I have a File folder which contains 1..n Files of the same type.
The files contain a DateValue at the beginning of each row. I now want to read the first Record of the file - extract the datevalue and search in my Importtable if there are any records with that Date. If there are allready Records with this date i know i allready imported that file and skip it in my For each File Container. If no records where found I want to copy them from the file to the table.

So I have a flatfile source and thoght I just make an oledb command task afterwards which looks like "Select count(*) from Import where Processdate = ?. and then a conditional split if the count == 0 or not... but i have problems getting the Count value out auf the OLD DB Command Task because everytime I try to add an outputcolumn i get the message: "An Output cannot be added to the output collection" and since there is no possibility to map an expression to the result...


I tried to workaround the problem using a lookup task.. but that seems to be the wrong way.

thanks for your help
bye

Importing DB2 Flat File With Bulk Insert

Oct 22, 2007

HI,



I am having trouble importing a flat file that was extracted from an AS400 server, into a SQL 2005 DB table using Bulk Insert. This file contains a column (field) that is of a Packed Decimal data type. Data in all other fields is displayed normally when viewing this file in a text editor such as Note Pad or Text Pad, but this one field comes up with unknown encoding: squares, thick vertical lines, basically strange characters and no numeric data.



Does anyone have any experience dealing with file of this sort?



Any insight would be appreciated.



Thanks.

Create Package For Multiple Table Insert From Flat File Source

Feb 23, 2008



Hello Guys,

I am working in one company and currently I am assigned to new project for Data Migration from company X to our company Y using SSIS. I am totally new and i just completed 5 tutorial which was gien on MSDN website.

Basically client is going to send us first flat file with 1 million records with Header, Detail and Trailer records.
I want to create a Package in such a way that it dumps all this first load into 7 to 8 different tables at a time.
we also have to include functionlity for validation and error check.
On successfull load error file should only return Header and Trailer but no detail records.
If there are any errors then error file should contain Header, Detail records which were unable to load plus trailer which we have to sent back to client.

When 2nd file comes that time we have to check whether this is new records or change (update) one depending on Flag which tells it.


This is basically high level idea of my Package what i need to create. If u guys have any question then let me know.

I know you guys are very experienced one. Anyone of you please give me some detail idea on it I would really appricate it.
I have very limited time line for it.

Thanks

Mar 18, 2015

Can we bulk insert only the desired column from a flat file to a table?

I am using SSIS to bulk insert from a file with more than 200 columns. I am trying to find a way I can bulk insert them to multiples table through SSIS.

The one way I can think is pre map the columns from the file to the destination tables. Build numerous Bulk Insert tasks to achieve that. But not sure if SSIS will let me do that.

1 Log File Can Contain More Records After Performing Backup Database Statement, 2 Why Can't Insert Data When Is Log Is Not Full

Feb 14, 2008

question 1:

i found that database log file can contain more records after performing backup database statement.

for example:

i create a database and limit the log file to 2mb. then i create a table and insert data.

If i backup the database before i insert data , the database file can contain 192 records unitl the log file is full.


If i don't perform the 'backup database' statement.
The 'dbcc sqlperf(logspace)' indicate the utilization ratio is less than 40% after inserting 192 records

why?

I list my code:



Code Snippet
create database db_test
on primary
(
name=db_test,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test.mdf'
)
log on
(
name=db_test_log,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test_log.ldf',
maxsize=2mb
)
go
backup database db_test to disk='db_test.bak' --- if i don't execute this line, log file can contain a lot of record
go
create table db_test..table1(col char(8000))
--insert data to fill up the database log
declare @n int
set @n=0
while @n<192
begin
insert into db_test..table1 values(replicate('a',8000))
set @n=@n+1
end








question 2:
i create a database and limit the log file to 2mb. Then i create a table and insert data in an endless loop.

After the inserting operation executing for a while, the 9002 error occurs, indicate the log file for the database is full.
But the 'dbcc sqlperf(logspace)' command indicate the unilization ratio is low, and log_reuse_wait_desc in sys.database is 'CHECKPOINT'
And I can insert data , and i'm sure the state of log_use_wait_desc is 'CHECKPOINT'.


As i known, the checkpoint can't truncate log under full recovery model. Only the back log operation can truncate the transaction log.
So log is not full, why 9002 error is encounterd. and why the log_reuse_wait_desc return 'CHECKPOINT'?


I list my code:



Code Snippet
create database db_test
on primary
(
name=db_test,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test.mdf'
)
log on
(
name=db_test_log,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test_log.ldf',
maxsize=2mb
)
go
create table db_test..table1(col char(8000))

--insert data to fill up the database log
declare @n int
set @n=0
while @n<>-1
begin
insert into db_test..table1 values(replicate('a',8000))
end








any suggestions?


thanks in advance.

How Can I Take This Example Flat File And Parse Out Each Section To A New Flat File? Each Section Starts With HD (header Row)

Mar 13, 2006

How can I take this example Flat file and parse out each section to a new flat file?  Each section starts with HD (header row)

http://www.webfound.net/flat_file_example.txt

e.g. an example output file based on above (cutting out the first section) would be:

http://www.webfound.net/flatfile_output.txt

Also, I'll need to grab a certain value in each header row (certain position in the 100 byte header row) to use that as part of the filename that's outputed.  I assume it would be better to insert these rows into a temp table then somehow do a search on a specific position in the row...but that's impossible?  The other route is to insert each row into a temp table separated out by fields but that is going to be too combursome because we have several formats to determine separation of fields based on the row type so I'd have to create many temp tables and many components in SSIS when all we want to do is again:

1) output each group (broken by each header row) into it's own txt file

2) use a field in  the  header row as part of the name of the output txt file (e.g. look at the first row, whcih is a header row in flat_file_example. txt.  I want to grab the text 'AR10' and use that as part of the filename that I create

Any suggestions on how to approach this whole process in SSIS...the simplest approach that will work ?
