I´m exporting an ms-excel file, then I use a lookup transformation to get a field from a SQL Server 2005 table. The Lookup transformation editor, after selecting the table, shows a warning that says:
at least one mapping between a column from available input columns ans a column from available lookup columns must be defined on the columns page.
So I try to make a relationship in the Lookup transformation editor's column tab where I find the Available input columns and the available lookup columns but I get the following error:
The following columns cannot be mapped: [Department, DEP_CLEGALCODE] One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.
The field in SLQ Server is varchar(10) and the input field is a derived column transformation; I have tried different Data Types but I always have the same error.
The DataFlow is: ExcelSource --> Derived Column --> Lookup --> Flat file destination
I trust you'll bear with an SQL Server newbie with what may seem a rather inane request. I am designing a web app in Web Designer 2005 Express with SQL Server Express. Unfortunately, I'm finding a little confusing with some of the data types when designing tables. I have tried to find information on the various Microsoft sites (general site, MSDN, here) and while I found one document that had a table comparing data types in different implementations of SQL, it wasn't at all helpful. Most of my confusion is with the various string and char types; the numeric types seem pretty straight forward for the most part. However, it might be helpful to know the difference between money and smallmoney/datetime and smalldatetime, particularly space/size information and formatting options (unless the latter is up to the interface). It would also be helpful to know which string/char types correspond to any counterparts they might have in, for instance, Access (with which I am already quite exprienced). Or any particular quirks or idiosyncracies they might have. I don't expect anyone to write a full tutorial, but if someone could point me in the direction of a good online doc, it would be most appreciated. You might well ask, why not use Access databases? I would answer...I like to learn new stuff! Thanks much.

I created a Product database table using Visual Basic 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have just added a new column [Picture] with IMAGE datatype to the database table, which of course, should store an image or picture of a product. I am writing to kindly ask you guys for help.
i) How do I store a picture or image for each record of this column [Picture] of database table? I have tried and all that I can see is < binary data > in the picture column, and when I start the VB 2005 Express form is a blank picture box!
ii) How do I get this image to display on Visual Basic 2005 Express form, so that when a product is selected the product image is displayed too? All text data appears but not the picture!

I'm a traditional asp guy and I'm having a heck of a time getting my arms around this SQLDataSource provided in ASP.NET 2.0 I've setup the Connection String and successfully used the SQLDataSource.Insert method. I can't for the life of me figure out how to use the SQLDataSource.Select command. I want to get the @@IDENTITY of the last record inserted. Example: ---Works Fine--- SQLDataSource.InsertCommand = "Insert into Engines(Type, Description)values('" & DrpType.Text & "', '" & txtDescription.Text & "')" SQLDataSource.Insert() --- End Works Fine------- Doesn't Work--- SQLDataSource.SelectCommand = "Select @@IDENTITY as 'Identity'" set RecordSetVar = SQLDataSource.Select <--- this wants some kind of arguements --- End Doesn't Work---
I am working with a legacy SQL server database from SQL Server 2000. I noticed that in some places that they use decimal data types, that I would normally think they should be using integer data types. Why is this does anyone know?
Example: AutomobileTypeId (PK, decimal(10,0), not null)

Will writes "I have an employees table, which gives all emp. ids. I have a second table, time_log with tasks each employee has logged:
empID date log_time duration etc ===================================
and a 3rd table - a pivot table with a single column named "i" containing consecutive integers from 0 - 1000
I need to know for each date in a series, e.g seven consecutive days, how much time each has logged. easy if everyone has logged a task for every day, but I need to include every day where they have not logged a task.
so, a cartesian join on all the dates in a series(produced using dateadd on p.i and the pivot table)
SELECT dateadd('d',p.i, #02/19/2007#), e.empID FROM pivot1 p, employees e WHERE i<no_dates
However I need to do a left join with time log where the date and employee ids are the same, and I have summed the durations for each date. The following query does this, but does not include dates and times where nothing has been logged.
SELECT empID, log_date, sum(duration) FROM time_log GROUP BY empEIN, log_date
GIVING, EVENTUALLY, ALL DATES AND EMPIDS AND THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIME THEY HAVE LOGGED FOR EACH DAY."
Group,Is there a way to assign nullability on a column when using a select into?I've tried some of the usual things like coalsce, isnull, and cast. Sincethe new table gets definition from the source table or can be somewhatadjusted with cast is there a way to cast a not null? In the example belowhow can I select into causing tableone_new..col2 to be not null. Wetypically must use an alter statement after the select into but this seemsinefficient.Thanks,Raycreate table tableone (col1 int not null,col2 int )goinsert tableone values (1, 1)insert tableone values (2, 2)insert tableone values (3, 3)goselectcol1,col2into tableone_newfrom tableonegoexec sp_help tableone_newgodrop table tableonegodrop table tableone_newgo
