Hi,
I am trying to create an SSIS package but am not able to set the global variable values.
I want to have a Global Variable as @EventID
and the create a Execute SQL Task which will run this query:
SELECT Max(EventID)
FROM EventTable
and assign this Max value to the global variable @EventID
How can I achieve this...help me please
Regards,
Nusrath
I have a SQL Task that updates running totals on a record inserted using a Data Flow Task. The package runs without error, but the actual row does not calculate the running totals. I suspect that the inserted record is not committed until the package completes and the SQL Task is seeing the previous record as the current. Here is the code in the SQL Task:
DECLARE @DV INT;
SET @DV = (SELECT MAX(DateValue) FROM tblTG);
DECLARE @PV INT;
SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I've not been successful in passing a SSIS global variable to a declared parameter, but is it possible to do this:
DECLARE @DV INT;
SET @DV = ?;
DECLARE @PV INT;
SET @PV = @DV - 1;
I have almost 50 references to these parameters in the query so a substitution would be helpful.

I'm new to SSIS, but have been programming in SQL and ASP.Net for several years. In Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition I've created an SSIS that imports data from a flat file into the database. The original process worked, but did not check the creation date of the import file. I've been asked to add logic that will check that date and verify that it's more recent than a value stored in the database before the import process executes.
Here are the task steps.
[Execute SQL Task] - Run a stored procedure that checks to see if the import is running. If so, stop execution. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
[Execute SQL Task] - Log an entry to a table indicating that the import has started.
[Script Task] - Get the create date for the current flat file via the reference provided in the file connection manager. Assign that date to a global value (FileCreateDate) and pass it to the next step. This works.
[Execute SQL Task] - Compare this file date with the last file create date in the database. This is where the process breaks. This step depends on 2 variables defined at a global level. The first is FileCreateDate, which gets set in step 3. The second is a global variable named IsNewFile. That variable needs to be set in this step based on what the stored procedure this step calls finds out on the database. Precedence constraints direct behavior to the next proper node according to the TRUE/FALSE setting of IsNewFile.
If IsNewFile is FALSE, direct the process to a step that enters a log entry to a table and conclude execution of the SSIS.
If IsNewFile is TRUE, proceed with the import. There are 5 other subsequent steps that follow this decision, but since those work they are not relevant to this post.
Here is the stored procedure that Step 4 is calling. You can see that I experimented with using and not using the OUTPUT option. I really don't care if it returns the value as an OUTPUT or as a field in a recordset. All I care about is getting that value back from the stored procedure so this node in the decision tree can point the flow in the correct direction.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[p_CheckImportFileCreateDate]
/*
The SSIS package passes the FileCreateDate parameter to this procedure, which then compares that parameter with the date saved in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
If the date is newer (or if there is no date), it updates the field in that table and returns a TRUE IsNewFile bit value in a recordset.
Otherwise it returns a FALSE value in the IsNewFile column.
Example:
exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', '2/27/2008 9:24 AM', 0
*/
@ProcessName varchar(50)
, @FileCreateDate datetime
, @IsNewFile bit OUTPUT
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
--DECLARE @IsNewFile bit
DECLARE @CreateDateInTable datetime
SELECT @CreateDateInTable = FileCreateDate FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
IF EXISTS (SELECT ProcessName FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName)
BEGIN
-- The process exists in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Compare the create dates.
IF (@FileCreateDate > @CreateDateInTable)
BEGIN
-- This is a newer file date. Update the table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
UPDATE tbl_ImportFileCreateDate
SET FileCreateDate = @FileCreateDate
WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- The file date is the same or older.
SET @IsNewFile = 0
END
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- This is a new process for tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Add a record to that table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportFileCreateDate (ProcessName, FileCreateDate)
VALUES (@ProcessName, @FileCreateDate)
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
SELECT @IsNewFile
The relevant Global Variables in the package are defined as follows:
Name : Scope : Date Type : Value
FileCreateDate : (Package Name) : DateType : 1/1/2000
IsNewFile : (Package Name) : Boolean : False
Setting the properties in the "Execute SQL Task Editor" has been the difficult part of this. Here are the settings.
General
Name = Compare Last File Create Date
Description = Compares the create date of the current file with a value in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
TimeOut = 0
CodePage = 1252
ResultSet = None
ConnectionType = OLE DB
Connection = MyServerDataBase
SQLSourceType = Direct input
IsQueryStoredProcedure = False
BypassPrepare = True
I tried several SQL statements, suspecting it's a syntax issue. All of these failed, but with different error messages. These are the 2 most recent attempts based on posts I was able to locate.
SQLStatement = exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
SQLStatement = exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
Parameter Mapping
Variable Name = User::FileCreateDate, Direction = Input, DataType = DATE, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = -1
Variable Name = User::IsNewFile, Direction = Output, DataType = BYTE, Parameter Name = 1, Parameter Size = -1
Result Set is empty.
Expressions is empty.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ...
exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
... the following error message appears.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" starting.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
When the above is run tbl_ImportFileCreateDate does not get updated, so it's failing at some point when calling the procedure.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ...
exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
... the tbl_ImportFileCreateDate table gets updated. So I know that data piece is working, but then it fails with the following message.

SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
The IsNewFile global variable is scoped at the package level and has a Boolean data type, and the Output parameter in the stored procedure is defined as a Bit. So what gives?
The "Possible Failure Reasons" message is so generic that it's been useless to me. And I've been unable to find any examples online that explain how to do what I'm attempting. This would seem to be a very common task. My suspicion is that one or more of the settings in that Execute SQL Task node is bad. Or that there is some cryptic, undocumented reason that this is failing.
Thanks for your help.
I am trying to pass a value from a VB Custom Task to
a DTS. The DTS doesn't get the value and I do not understand
why. Snipet follows:
oPKG.GlobalVariables.Item("gsAnyTypeData").Value = "Hello World"
oPKG.GlobalVariables.AddGlobalVariable ("gsAnyTypeData"), "Hello World"
oPKG.LoadFromSQLServer ".", , , 256, , , , DTSpackage_to_execute
oPKG.Execute
I've tried declaring the global variable in the called DTS and
I've tried without it. Neither contain the value when the DTS is
executed.
Thanks for your time and help,

Hi,
I have a dts package that currently uses a dynamic properties task to set the values of global variables. Each variable is based on the value of a query to the database.
I am in the process of migrating this dts package to SSIS but cannot find an equivalent function. I have looked at property expressions but cannot get this working the same way.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

In a stored procedure that I'm fixing, there is a problem with assigning variable values inside a loop. The proc is using dynamic SQL and if statements to build all these statements, but I'm having to add a new variable value to it that is throwing it out of whack.
This is the current structure:
SET @MktNbr = 10
WHILE @MktNbr < 90
BEGIN
DECLARE@sqlstmt varchar(1000)
SET @Market = '0' + CONVERT(char(2),@MktNbr)
SET @sqlstmt = 'SELECT (columns)
INTO dbo.table' + @Market + '
FROM #table
WHERE marketcode = ''' + @Market + '''
IF @MktNbr = 50
BEGIN
SET @MktNbr = 51
END
ELSE
IF @MktNbr = 51
BEGIN
SET @MktNbr = 52
END
ELSE
IF @MktNbr = 52
BEGIN
SET @MktNbr = 55
END
ELSE
IF @MktNbr = 55
BEGIN
SET @MktNbr = 60
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @MktNbr = @MktNbr + 10
END
EXEC (@sqlstmt)
END
I'm probably having a blonde moment, but I'm trying to replace the if statements with this:
SET @MktNbr =
CASE
WHEN @MktNbr = 10 THEN 20
WHEN @MktNbr = 20 THEN 30
WHEN @MktNbr = 30 THEN 40
WHEN @MktNbr = 40 THEN 50
WHEN @MktNbr = 50 THEN 51
WHEN @MktNbr = 51 THEN 52
WHEN @MktNbr = 52 THEN 55
WHEN @MktNbr = 55 THEN 60
WHEN @MktNbr = 60 THEN 70
WHEN @MktNbr = 70 THEN 80
WHEN @MktNbr = 80 THEN 81
ELSE @MktNbr END
Clearly it's wrong because the proc bombs every time with a duplicate table error.
It has been suggested to me that I should hold these market values in an external table. This sounds reasonable but I'm ashamed to admit that I don't know how I'd implement that. Can someone maybe give me a nudge in the right direction?
Hello There:
I am running a data flow within a ForEach loop wherein I am computing a value called QuotaGap. When it is 0 I do not want any further execution of the loop. I am using a Conditional Transform within this dataflow that writes a record to a table only when the QuotaGap is NOT 0. However, I am unable to terminate the execution of the loop as I am still within the dataflow.
Now, the computation of the gap requires a value from another variable called NetPurchases. I tried using an ExecuteSQL task in the control flow but could not figure out how to pass the value of the variable NetPurchases into the select statement to compute the gap. For example, the select statement would read:
select (QuotaUpperLimit - ?) As QuotaGap from <<tablename>>
I tried setting the parameter as an input as well as an output and it did not work.
Then I tried passing the entire SQL as a string within a variable. This does not work either because in order to compute the math QuotaUpperLimit - NetPurchases, both variables need to be integers but then you cannot concatenate integres together, which is what we need to do to create the SQL.
The other reason I am going through these hoops I guess is that I have not figured out a way to set the value of a variable within a data flow. I compute the value for QuotaGap within the dataflow in a ForEach loop but I have no way to pass this result to a variable called QuotaGap without using an ExecuteSQL task or another ForEach Loop.
I have spent hours on this simple issue and so have given up and looking to the good friends in this forum for help.
If what I have stated is not clear please let me know and I will try to clarify things a bit.
Thanks!

By default the BufferTempStoragePath is mapped to the user running the package's Documents and Settings folder. This is problematic when numerous packages are running simultaneously and using this disk location (i.e. sorts), and you don't have a large disk for your C: drive.
The property of course can be changed. However the property is specific to a data flow task, so this would require developers to change the property is every data flow task of every package. Is there a global setting to change the default location that SSIS will use?
An alternative is to use configurations, however a configuration will be required for every data flow, as it is specific to the data flow task (and name of that data flow task)
Any ideas?
Thanks
Since SSIS is developed in Visual Studio is there a way to view the variable values as they are passed into SSIS? In Visual Studio I know if you hover over the variable a popup appears with the value in the variable.
I am having an issue with a variable value that is supplied through an "Execute SQL Task" it is a Directory path that is entered in through the application and used to determine where to pick up files to transfer. I have entered in the path using Fully Qualified(D:ImportExportCentralPrinting) and UNC (\SQLDEVELOPImportExportCentralPrinting) through both methods SSIS is telling me no files are available in the directory path. When I know for fact they do exists.
I would really love to see the variable values that are being used can anyone out there help?
Thank you all,

I'm playing (and trying to learn)...
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?
Any help would be much appreciated....
Hi pals,
I am new to SSIS.I am getting a problem while setting the global parameters.
I created a package with a single task i.e an Execute SQL task.The associated sql is
"delete from src_emp where deptno=?" and i added a new user defined variable as "dno" i.e "user:no"
which of String type with scope=<package name>.The name of my package is "test.dtsx" which is a Structured File
save in my d: directory. I harded code the value in SSIS package desiner i.e in BIDS and tested the functionality,
it is working fine. But when i remove the hard coded value and when i tried to call the dts package using the command line
utility DTExec, i am getting. Below are the different ways i tried to set the global parameters.

Hi All,I tried to get a global variable in my task scritp by using "Dts.Variables("myVar").Value", every time I've got an errorThe 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. I've seen some examples online to get global varaibles in task script and all of them display the same code Any idea Franck

Is there a way to declare a global variable that can be used in seperate stored procedures?
I have a statistics table that tracks the inserts and updates for several stored procedures.
I need to have the procedure_A run and insert a count of inserted and updated rows.
Procedure_B needs to identify the row inserted by procedure_A and update the columns with a count of how many it inserted and updated.
Procedure_C needs to do the same as procedure_b.
I want to pass a global variable with the id of the row inserted by procedure_A to the rest of the procedures so that they will know which row to update. How do I do this? Can I?
Thanks.
Hi all,
I have a user using this tool, which creates a temporrary storeproc in tempdb.
when I don't give him permission on temp_db, it errors out and says you should create a system variable to point to a different database to create this sp.

I appreciate any comment on this thread.

Dear All!
I want to know that how can i declare a global variable in database, assign some value to it, then using it in multiple triggers and procedure then deallocating that.
Please provide a smal example.
Regards,
Shabber.
I have several stored procedures and UDFs that have code that convert between GMT timezone and other U.S. timezones.
for example,
to convert from GMT to CT I use this:
@dtmCentral = dateadd(hour, -5,@GMTdtm)
However, come Nov 4th after 2AM, when DST ends, I need to change this to
@dtmCentral = dateadd(hour, -6,@GMTdtm)
Assuming that I can store this -5 or -6 value in a global variable, I want to have a stored procedure that updates it when DST starts and ends.
Is there a better way of doing this other than the option of going through the entire calculations of figuring out whether it's DST or not each time ?
Thanks.

How to set and reference Global Variable in a SQL Task (MS SQL 2000)

Hi all,
Where can I find information/write up on importing data from Oracle, Lotus Notes, Lotus
Approach / MS Access / Lotus Spreadsheets and text files in to SQL Server 6.5? I've
scanned through books on-line but it doesn't contain any useful information about this.
Is it so that if I want to import data from any of the above mentioned databases then I first
will have to convert data into text(ascii) fromat from that database and then import from
text files??? Sounds weird, isn't it?

Hey all,
I've recently been attempting a transform data task with a custom query for the source. Using the query, i've attempted to use global params, but it only ever seems to work if there is only one item in the global var. If I return an entire resultset, I get a "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION" instead. I'm trying to use it like "SELECT * FROM whatever WHERE ID IN(?)"
I've pondered this problem for quite some time now and I am wondering if there is a workaround for it. I know it would take much too long to do the same thing in activeX with a transform, so I would rather do it this way if I could.
Thanks in advance,

Can I define a Global variable and use it as a Connection to SQL Server .
What I want to do is Create a DTS which pumps out files to an app server. However this might be done in different environments and I want to keep the SQL Connection Dynamic and change it in global parameter value.
Please help ,,,
Thanks
Hi!
I want to know the scope of a Global Variable in case of multi users.
Means i have declared a global variable in a function. And a new value is assigned to this global variable into this function, each time it is called.
So if, 3 users call this function at same time, then will the get different gloabl variables or same?

I need to block access to a process when it is running but the process appends outside of SQL in DB2 on a mainframe.
I planing to do something like :
declare @@LastProcessTime datetime
IF @@LastProcessTime is null or datediff(mi, @@LastProcessTime, getdate())>3
Set @@LastProcessTime=getdate()
IF datepart(mi, coalesce(@@LastProcessTime, getdate())< 3
BEGIN
update DB2 --takes 2 minutes
Set @@LastProcessTime=null
END
ELSE
Raise error 'Under processing since ' + usf_format_dt(@@LastProcessTime, 'HH:NN')
Is it the right approach?
Hello,I am having difficulty with global variables in DTS. SpecificallyI would like to instantiate a global variable with a value obtainedfrom a SQL database. I have created the global variable through thepackage properties section. Now i need to instantiate it with a valuefrom the database. Should i use an ActiveX Script Task to accomplishthis? If so can someone send me a link that shows the best way ofdoing this?Thanks,Billy
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a SSIS pkg with several task. I need to run a global variable dynamically.
the global variable's value is basically a bat file with two arguments (\.......bat \.......xls \........xls)
bat file arg1 arg2
This global variable gets set from its previous task at run time. I did put in this global variable as an argument in expression and for executable i am calling the cmd.exe file. But for some reason it does not work. the command prompt comes up wait for an action from user which is wrong. Please help
Thanks
I just want to store the value of a parameter in a global variable that all my reports in the same project can use.
My goal is to create a dynamic query. For example:
Company Name: Widgets inc.
Divisions: Sales, Service, Tech, Accounting
I have a matrix and when I click on the more information button it goes to another report. I want the next report to know what division is currently selected in the dropdown parameter. So, being a VB programmer, I thought I could store parameter1.division.value into a global variable and update the variable whenever the parameter changes.
This way, on the next report, my query's where statement is the global variable.
@GlobalVariable = parameter1.division.value
Select name, address, phone FROM Employee WHERE division = @GlobalVariable
I am using Visual Studio to design this project although I would prefer to use VB or ASP. But this is my only stumbling block right now. Everything else is complete.
Please let me know if anyone can help.
Thanks.
