I have theses variables
@strStartDaysDateVARCHAR(10),
@strStartWeekDateVARCHAR(10),
@strStartMonthDateVARCHAR(10),
@strEndDateVARCHAR(10),
[code]....
So with @strStartDaysDate I'm getting number of records for the day.
With @strStartWeekDate I'm getting number of records for the week.
With @strStartMonthDate I'm getting number of records for the month.
I'm using GETDATE () function for @strEndDate because I can't count records after the current date.Of course those physical dates ('08/01/2013') are not good because I would have to have new dates each week or each month.How do I properly set my variables once so that they regardless to the month or year?
Hi, I have just started with ASP, and have a problem. I have created a stored procedure which looks to a specific tablename for information, based upon the users choice from a dropdown list. The control works fine when executed from within visual web developer, and I manually enter the value that the variable expects. However I can not get the dropdown listbox value to be written to the SQL value. I have tried for days, traweled the net for answers, borrowed 3ft in height of SQL books! so either I am doing something fundamentally wrong, or I am missing something. My SP is: ALTER Procedure GenericTableSelect @tablename VarChar(20) AS Declare @SQL VarChar(1000) SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT [base model] FROM ' SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @tablename Exec ( @SQL) and from the page the command to call it is: SelectCommand=generictableselect></asp:SqlDataSource> But this fails to compile and comes back with "@tablename not defined" any pointers in the right direction would help. The object of this is for two drop down boxes - the first is populated from one database of categories, the selection of which populates the second drop down list with items from within that category. Cheers, Richard
So I know my code is pretty far off on the variables, but I couldn't find info on how to do this anywhere. Do I need to use sub selects to set the variables? Or something other than variables?
How do I set a variable to represent all of the data. For example using SELECT * will pull all of the data. Is there any symbol or way to declare and set a variable to do the same exact concept. In my query I have set many different variables which are used later on in my where clause but depending on what information I'm pulling from the data I don't wan the variable to have a specific value and instead pull all the data.
This is a fun one. I have a job that runs a SSIS package. It has some variables that I set a runtime. How can I programmatically change the values for these variables using SMO? I can get to the step in the job using VB but I can't find a way to programmatically change the value of the parameters of the job. The code loops through every property of the SSIS step. There's a command string but that's an ugly beast to code against. Any help is appreciated.
I am trying to understand the relationship of setting package configurations and setting variable values during job scheduling. I understand that I can select variables that I want to manipulate at run time using package configurations. I understand that the configuration file is an xml file that the job can be told to access at run time. Here are my questions:
1. Once I create a configuration file, do I physically modify the file to change the variable that is input at runtime? 2. Do I have to select the config file and then change the value using the Set values tab? 3. What is the relationship between the config file and the set values tab?
4. When creating a package configuration, when would you use the options other than XML configuration file?
We're just in the middle of performing our first release of SSIS packages through various environments.
The way we are set up currently is the developer will check the package(s) and related config files out of source control, develop on their own machine and check everything in again. Then we deploy the packages consecutively to the Dev, Tst and Prd servers.
We are going down the path of using one environment variable for every config file. some packages share config files (e.g. we've only one config file for each database or ftp connection etc.) and some config files are package specific (error log file connections and success/failure e-mail sources etc.).
What we want ideally is a script that we can check into source control that will create the environment variables on a server at deployment. The "set" command at the command line can be used to change the value of an environment variable, or to create a session-specific variable, but not to create environment variables.
So far the only method that we're using is manually typing in the environment variable names via control panel and copying and pasting the paths into the value fields. Given that we're deploying potentially hundreds of config files, it's obvious that this new-fangled GUI point-and-click and copy-and-paste method of deployment is absolutely foolproof and totaly not prone to any error whatsoever.
Please tell me there's a way to create and set environment variables without going through control panel. running a script or something to do it automatically will: Ensure that each environment is set up accurately and identically, eliminating human error. Ensure that when a developer checks out a package to their local drive, although they may have to change the variable values, he can at least create the relevant variables without having to type them in. Enable efficient migration to another new server (for example during Disaster Recovery).
Can anyone point me to some example scripts at all?
I have an FTP task in a for each containter and am setting the RemotePath using an expression (works great). Thought I could use this to start learning some of the scripting funtionality in SSIS (in a script task) so found some code in this forum (thanks Original Posters!) and tried my hand at some coding... Intent was to create a variable and then dynamically overwrite the Expression in the FTP Task from the script (I know I don't need to do this, I just wanted to use it for learning purposes)....
I have a variable named varFTPDestPathFileName (string) and want to set it to the value of varFTPDestPath (string) + varFTPFileName (string). Note: all variables are scoped at the package level (could this be the problem?). I did not assign any of the variables to ReadOnly or ReadWrite on the Script Task Editor page (seems to me that doing this in the code is a whole lot cleaner [and self documenting] than on the Task Editor page)...
I keep getting the following error: "The element cannot be found in a collection. This error happens when you try to retrieve an element from a collection on a container during execution of the package and the element is not there."
Here is the script:
Public Sub Main() Dim vars As Variables ' Lock for Read/Write the variables we are going to use Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("User::varFTPDestPath") Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("User::varFTPFileName") Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForWrite("User::varSourcePathFileName") Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars)
' Set Value of varSourcePathFileName <<--- ERROR OCCURS HERE vars("User::varSourcePathFileName").Value = _ Dts.Variables("User::varFTPDestPath").Value.ToString + _ Dts.Variables("User::varFTPFileName").Value.ToString
vars.Unlock()
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
I would also like to be able to loop through the Dts.VariableDispensor to see the contents of the variables and their values.
Somthing like
For each ??? in vars msgbox(???.Value) Next
One other question... Do we always have to preface the variable with "User::" or "System::", if so can you explain why?
I am trying to set the connection string in a connection manager at runtime. Here is what I have done:
1. Created a gv_DataSource, gv_Username and gv_Password
2. Created a ForEach Loop that reads DataSource, Username and password values from a variable (it is an For Each ADO loop Enumerator). The ADO recordset is read into by an Execute SQL task before the loop.
3. Mapped values from the recordset to variable in the ForEach loop's "Variable Mappings" page.
4. Used the variables in my Sybase OLEDB Connection Manager's "Expression" property, setting the "ConnectionString" property to:
5. I set the values in my database table for the connection-I set 2 connections for which I have Sybase OLEDB datasources setup.
When I run the package, I just get the first server's data twice, it doesn't set the second server's data during the second loop. I made sure the first one was working (i.e. the ConnectionString's property was being set by the data from the current variables) by setting the variables incorrectly in the variable properties page, and then running the package. So the first row of connection information is working, but the second loop around it doesn't seem to be working. I used a msgbox in a script task to show that the variables are mapping correctly in the loop, so it seems the second time around the connection information isn't taking from the variables.
Hi, Let's say I have a package taking as parameter "InvoiceID". I want to execute this package as a child in another package. The parent package gets the list of invoices to produce and calls the child package for each entry of the list.
How do I pass the InvoiceID to the child? I know I can use the parent's variables from the child but I don't want the child package to be dependant on the parent package. For example, I might want to execute the "child" package as a stand-alone in development (providing it with a predefined InvoiceID). I might also want to call the same child package from another parent package with other variable names.
What I would like to do is "push" the value instead of "pulling" it. I know it's possible using the command line and the /SET option (ex.: /SET Package.Variables[InvoiceID].Value;' 184084)... Is it possible using the Execute Package Task?
I have a the following date variables that's being set around the current date. how to adjust it to work around a date variable @Date instead of the current date? Lets the @Date = 2015-06-30 then the it would adjust the variable below accordingly. I'm assuming the getdate()) needs to be replaced with @Date but I can't seem to get it to work.
Declare @EndOfLMPriorYear Date = DateAdd(yyyy,-1,EOMONTH(Dateadd(Month,Datediff(Month,0,getdate())-1,0))) Declare @EndOfPriorMonth Date = EOMONTH(Dateadd(Month,Datediff(Month,0,getdate())-2,0)) DECLARE @EndOfLastMonth Date = EOMONTH(Dateadd(Month,Datediff(Month,0,getdate())-1,0))
I am making use of the DtUtil tool to deploy my package to SQL Server. Following is my configuration: 32-bit machine and 32-bit named instance of Yukon.
I have some package variables which need to be set in the code.
Previously I did it as follows:
Set the package variables in the code. For example:
Here the package was successfully deployed and when i open those packages using BIDS, I am able to see that the variables are set to the values as doen in teh code.
Because of oen problem I am not using SaveToSQLServer method. So I switched to DTUtil tool. Now I am doing it this way:
Set the package variables as before. Deploy the package to SQL Server using DTUtil tool.
Now is the problem: The package is successfully deployed. But the variables are not set to the value that I have specified in the code.
I also tried DTexec utility to set the package variable. Even that does n't work. Can anyone help me out? Is there any alternate method to set package variables?
I have had one tossed at me that I've never dealt with before. While I've done calculations on date parts I'm a little lost on how to proceed. They want a stored procedure that will take date from one field and add three days to it and that would update another field. The three days must account for weekend and holidays.
The date would be receiveddate 12/03/2007 and the due date 12/06/2007. If someone has run into this and has some sample code it would be a great help.

I am using a Ms-Access DS which is accessed by a website's server-side scripts.
What I would like to do is set an existing record's date/time field to null. I have tried to simply alter its value by not including any data within the sharps (##), however that did not work.
I have an SSRS report with parameters for Created On Start and Created On End. Users run this manually and choose the date range to display records for.
I would like to set up two different subscriptions
1) to send weekly on Monday morning for "last weeks" records and 2) to send monthly to send "last month's" records.
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

In my ASP.NET app, I'm executing a stored procedure via a SQLCommand the searches a customer database. I believe the default timeout is 90 seconds. I'm curious of what happens to the SQL Server Stored Procedure after timing out from the ASP.NET application. Does it timeout at the same time or do you have to set up a value in SQL Server?
My goal is to select values from the same date range for a month on month view to compare values month over month. I've tried using the date trunc function but I'm not sure what the best way to attack this is. My thoughts are I need to somehow select first day of every month + interval 'x days' (but I don't know the syntax).In other words, I want to see
Select Jan 1- 23rd feb 1-23rd march 1-23rd april 1-23rd ,value from table

108203492014-09-022015-06-30
For this id: 0820349, my beginning date is 2014-09-02
To find continuous date, you look at the beginning date in row 1 and end date in row 2, then if no break in dates, row 2 beginning date to row 3 end date, if no break continue until last date There could multiple dates up to 12 which I have to check for "no break" in dates, if break, display beginning date of last continuous date.
