Hi
as mentioned in title i'm trying to move data from excel into a table in a sql server 2000 database. We have spreadsheets that produce data in excel using querytables.
we want a system the other way, by typing data into a spreadsheet, pressing a button which pushes the data into a sql server table.
I know this is half VBA and half SPORC question.
but i hope you can help!!
I am trying to load data from an Excel spreadsheet file into SQL Server 2005 Express. I understand that DTS is the best tool for doing this but from my research it appears that DTS is not available with the Express edition and the import wizard that does come with Express is not well suited for this type of conversion.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to achieve this objective? Thanks for any help you can provide.
Hi there. i have the following excel spreadsheet that needs to be moved into a database:
ADDRESS
STREET
SURNAME
GIVEN
PHONE
CITY
POSTAL

SC
M1B 1A3
SC-123-13
Most of these fields are going to be created as reference tables... and the main contact list table will only include a fk to the actual value.
eg) the contact table for the above will look like:
ADDRESS
STREET
SURNAME
GIVEN
PHONE
CITY
POSTAL

My question is, what is the best way to move all this data into SQL Server Express?
I've been playing around with the LinkedServers section in sql and have managed to create a connection to my excel workbook. I am able to select all worksheets as tables... and i've also been able to select all records from the main contacts sheet.
not knowing any better, my initial thoughts are to create separate sql statements for each reference table.
eg) select street from excellink...contact$
and then combine it somehow with an insert statement into the streets table in my database.
Is this the right approach? if it is, can you help with the syntax of the sql statement?
Please and thanks.

Our current sql server 7 is overloaded and I have been asked to move some data to a new box which is to be acquired. My query is as follows:
1. What should be the ideal spec of a sql server to allow for windows 2000 in future.
2. Is there any kind of monitoring agent available to see how heavily loaded the server is and what load each application/database is creating.
3. And how do I go about moving data from one to the other.
4. What do I do at the clients end to ensure they are able to access their database.

I have a server that will be going off-line in a couple of weeks, and in the meantime, I need to backup everything and move it to a new location. This involves a lot of data and databases.
What I have is 33 databases in MS SQL Server 2005. The target machine is MS SQL Server 2008. Each of these databases has a myriad of stored procedures and compiled functions that will need to be moved as well. Essentially the task is to completely replicate the entire MS SQL environment.
Is there a shortcut to making this happen or am I relegated to backing up each database individually and then restoring them individually?
Access 2k -> SQL Server 2kMy client has an app that is A2k FE with A2k BE. They have asked meto move the BE to SQL Server.I have a bit of experience with SQL Server, and I'm happy withscripting the database etc.However, when it comes time to move the data itself, I have a teensylittle concern.Let's take our typical Customers -> Orders relation, where CustomerIDis the Foreign Key in the Orders table.Let's say I have 4 customers, but I used to have 6. The CustomerID isan AutoNum column, and they are 1, 2, 4, 6. However, when I insertthese records into the matching SQL Server table with an Identitycolumn, they will (presumably) be 1, 2, 3, 4.So what can I do about the matching orders? Is there any alternativeto this, which seeems very long winded.1. Insert the records as above, but copy the OLD Access AutoNumcolumn (called OldCustomerID) into a temporary column in the new SQLServer table for both the Customers and Orders tables.2. Insert the Orders records into the new SQL Server table.3. Run an update query thus:UPDATE OSET CustomerID = C.CustomerIDFROM Orders OINNER JOIN Customers C ON O.OldCustomerID = C.OldCustomerIDCan I do this any easier? For example, is there any way in SQL Serverto maintain the values of the AutoNum field in the Insert but havethem still be Identity fields? I know that I can import the AutoNumdata into a simple int column, and once the import is complete, turnON the identity, but is this reliable? Might I lose any dataintegrity?TIAEdward--The reading group's reading group:http://www.bookgroup.org.uk

I am wishing to
* take a table of data into a C# CLR procedure and store it in an array
* take a second table of data into this procedure row by row, and return a row (into a third table) for each row (and this returned row is based on the data in the array and the data in this row).
I am new to CLR programming, and pulling my hair out at the moment. I€™m sure that what I€™m trying to do is simple, but I am not making any progress with the on-line help and error messages L. I have now described what I am trying to do in more detail, firstly in English, and then in a T-SQL implementation that works (for this simple example). I€™m looking for the C# CLR code to be returned €“ containing preferably two parts:
* the C# code and
* the CLR code to €˜make it live€™
Since I am not sure where my coding is going wrong. (I think it should be possible to read in the one table, and then loop through thte second table, calculating and returning the necessary output as you do the calculations...
Problem in English
Consider a situation where there are three tables: DATATABLE, PARAMETERTABLE and RESULTSTABLE.
For each row in PARAMETERTABLE, I will calculate a row for RESULTSTABLE based on calculations involving all the entries form DATATABLE.
I am wishing to do this in a C# CLR for performance reasons, and because the functions I will be using will be significantly more complex, and recursively built up.
Consider the following table structures
DATATABLE €“ [i int, datavalue real]
[1,12.5]
[2.10]
[3.14]
[4,17.5]
(where numberofrows is 4)
PARAMETERTABLE [parametera real, paramaterb real]
[10,2]
[11.7,1.1]
RESULTSTABLE [resultvalue real]
[20.5]
[18.26]
The values of the results table are calculated as the
sum (for i = 1 to numberofrows)
of
(Parameter1+i*parameterb-datavalue)^2
Which leads to the values shown.
T-SQL Implementation
-- Set up database and tables to use in example
USE master
GO
CREATE DATABASE QuestionDatabase
GO
sp_configure 'clr enabled', 1
GO
USE QuestionDatabase
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO
CREATE TABLE DataTable (i INT NOT NULL, DataValue REAL NOT NULL)
GO
CREATE TABLE ParameterTable (ParameterNumber INT NOT NULL, ParameterA REAL NOT NULL, ParameterB REAL NOT NULL)
GO
CREATE TABLE ResultsTable (ParameterNumber INT NOT NULL, ResultsValue REAL NOT NULL)
GO
--Initialise the Tables
INSERT INTO DataTable (i, DataValue) VALUES (1,12.5)
INSERT INTO DataTable (i, DataValue) VALUES (2,10)
INSERT INTO DataTable (i, DataValue) VALUES (3,14)
INSERT INTO DataTable (i, DataValue) VALUES (4,17.5)
INSERT INTO ParameterTable (ParameterNumber, ParameterA, ParameterB) VALUES (1, 10, 2)
INSERT INTO ParameterTable (ParameterNumber, ParameterA, ParameterB) VALUES (2, 11.7, 1.1)
-- The TSQL to be rewritten in C#, to produce the Output as hoped
INSERT INTO ResultsTable (ParameterNumber, ResultsValue)
SELECT ParameterNumber, SUM((parametera+i*parameterb-datavalue)*(parametera+i*parameterb-datavalue)) AS b
FROM DataTable
CROSS JOIN
ParameterTable
GROUP BY ParameterNumber
-- Output as hoped
SELECT * FROM DataTable
SELECT * FROM ParameterTable
SELECT * FROM ResultsTable
-- which produced
1 12.5
2 10
3 14
4 17.5
1 10 2
2 11.7 1.1
1 20.5
2 18.26
-- but I hope to do the same with something like:
CREATE ASSEMBLY *** FROM 'C:***.dll'
CREATE PROCEDURE GenerateResultsInCLR(@i int, @r1 real, @r2 real)
RETURNS TABLE (i int, r real)
EXTERNAL NAME ***.***.***
EXEC GenerateResultsInCLR
This is a simple example, that can be easily written in T-SQL. I am looking to develop things that are recursive in nature, which makes them unsuited to T-SQL, unless one is using cursors, but this becomes very slow when the parameter table has 1m records, and the data table 100k records. This is why the datatable must be read in once, and manipulated many times, and the manipulation will need to be in the form of a loop.
Thanks very much for your help.
Go well

Hi All,
We have a Progress DB in our Company. We are trying to move all the data to SQL Server 2005. When I try to run the Import Data task from SQL Server 2005 the radio button called "Copy data from one or more tables or views" is getting disabled and it is asking me to write a SQL script to copy all data from 120 tables.
I am using a .NET Framework Data Provider for ODBC when I run the Import Data task from SQL Server 2005.
I am using the DataDirect 4.1 32-Bit Progress SQL92 v9.1D ODBC Driver to connect to Progress DB. I am getting a connection but the copy feature is getting disabled.
Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue, or even if you provide me with some pointers that will be really helpful.
Thanks

hi, does anyone know how I can make a connection to a 2000 db thru ssis?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a project where I am creating a test environment. My objective is to give the client staff a set of instructions to follow to make sure the test mirrors production. I have migrated the SRS databases over to the new test server. All of the reports are there as is the security but where I run into an issue is the data sources for SRS. They are all pointed at the production servers. Is there an easy way to make the change possibly using a SQL update statement or exporting all the reports to XML and doing a find and replace. The shared data sources I went through manually and changed but there were 40 data sources. Now I realized some of the reports have embedded data connections. There are hundreds of reports to go through.

Problem: Moving data from mysql to sql server 2005
I am trying to pull data over from mysql to sql server. First the import wizard greys out so I have to put in 1 query at a time which is pain. and second it does not even work! it takes me through the end of the wizard for me to click finish and then says oops it does not work. there was an error!
Anyway i tried going through the ssis route cuz its going to be a nightly job. i used the ado.net odbc connection. It worked but the performance is really not acceptable. it took 5 mins to import 24000 rows where as dts was taking 1 sec to do this. i wish i could use the native mysql odbc 3.51 connector and import. can some one give me step by step instructions on how to do that ?
I hear someone mentioned of using excute sql task which can use mysql odbc 3.51 driver. but since i am new how do i get it to work. say for example in the excute sql task i run a statement like select * from addr. then what?
cuz eventually i want the result to be saved in a sql server table called addr. How can i get the result from that excute sql task and put it inside of an addr table in sql server. should i save the result to a variable of type object. but then how do i get the data from object and tell sql server in the designer that the result contains these columns and it needs to map to these columns in the addr table of sql server.
Very confused. i wish the first option would have given me results which an enterprise ETL gives. but apparently it is too slow that it wont be acceptable in a production envrioment. when i will have millions of rows coming in .
Please anyone can help me in this.
Thanks for the help!

We have both a production SQL 7 server, QA, and Development. From time to time, I want to move just the data from the production server to the other 2 servers without modifing the objects that may have been changed such as stored procedures and rights. Is there a way using the SQL tools provided that we can just move the data. Becuase also what happens is that the rights to the objects change which means my developers no longer have access to the tables for selects in QA since the changes where overwritten by production where they do not have the rights.
Thanks

I am getting ready to start a project where I am charged with moving out old data from production into a newly created historical DB. We have about 8 tables that are internal audit tables, that are big and full of old data. These tables are barely used and are taking up way too much space and time for maintenance.
I would like to create a way (SSIS?) to look at the date field in each of the 8 tables and copy out anything older than two years into my newly created history DB. Then deleting the older records from the source DB.
I don't know if SSIS is the best method to use. If it is, what containers to use to move over data, then how to do delete from source?
Can I do the mass deletes on my audit source tables without impacting performance/indexes/fragmentation?
Hi,
I'm a newbie on SSIS and am trying to grasp my way through this.
I am trying to copy data from a Sql Server 2000 database to a simplified table in Sql Server 2005 database.
What I want is to move the data to a staging table, then drop the main
table and rename the staging table to the main table, to minimize the
down-time of the data. I can't get the workflow to work, because the
staging table has to exist when I run the package. I thought I could
use an "Execute SQL" task to generate the table before I would run the
task, but that doesn't work. Am I going about this the wrong way? Is
there an optimal solution to this problem so my data can be accessible
as much as possible.
Regards,
Atli

I have an Excel sheet that is dynamically updated (through DDE) and I want to import this data to a table in SQL Server 2005. Using SQL Server Management Studio to configure an Excel data source as a linked server.

Following the first 5 steps should let me acces the table (but I cannot view the data in SQL Server 2005). However, I could not find how to export the data into an existing table. Does anyone know how or can give a pointer to document describing how to do this?
Hello,
I am new to this sql server reporting server technology. I have a requirement like the table header should repeat in all pages of the exported excel's print preview. So I have created the header columns with fixed lenths as same as table's header in the page header of the report. Then only the Header will repeat in all pages of the print preview.
But the problem is when doing like this, many of the columns have been merged together. The report layout is ok. But cant sort the data. It says a message "This operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized."
In some forms i have found the header control's edges need to be sized identically with the tables' columns edges. I did it. But still the columns are merged when exporting.
Please help me out from this.
Thanks in advance.

I run a query from Excel to pull the data from SQL server and I have created another worksheet to add my columns for different analysis and costs. When someone add another line in SQL against an order or a customer then manually added columns data goes out of sync.Is there anyway when I refresh the RAWDATA or anything changes on SQL table then it should sync my formatted worksheet.
