Dear friends, can anyone please tell me that how at the time when user executes the package i can ask a user to choose the datasource excel sheet and what are the constraints i have to take care of in the integration package desing.
I was wondering whether there is a way to show the user an error when the user did not select a specific parameter.
In my case, I have two optional parameters. The user has to select either one to view the report. If the user does not select either one, I would like to show some sort of an error page indicating so. However, all i am getting is a complete blank with no report in sight. I as a developer know this is an error as a result of missing parameters, but i was wondering whether I could produce a page or direct it to a page so that the user doesn't go all horrified at an empty page ?
And I get the following error : Could not open new database 'dbname' CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
All I want is an Excel document to connect to a .mdf that is stored on a CD (The database will be readonly). I do not want the database to be stored on the users hard drive.
Is it possible to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using OPENROWSET or OPENDATASOURCE without having to explicitly define the filepath of the source file? Currently, I have this piece of code within a sproc:
FROM OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0; Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Master$C5:Q65536]') AS XL
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[PartMaster] ON (RIGHT([XL].[CODE], 7) = [PartMaster].[SKU])
WHERE [SKU] IS NOT NULL
AND [CODE] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] > 0
AND [LampTypeID] = @LampTypeID
I would like to remove the hardcoded reference 'Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls' and replace it with a parameter for the filepath. Is this possible? This is in SQL Server 2000. Also, if there is a way to do this with DTS I'd be open to doing it that way too.
I'd recently posted a question about using SQL CE as a database server for a multi-user desktop app. I did some development and tested it, and it seemed to work fine. What I did was:
1. create a remoteable object that used SqlCe classes to perform read and write operations to an encrypted CE database.
public class RemData : MarshalByRefObject
{
public DataSet GetData()
{
//Read data }
public int AddData(DataSet data)
{ //Write data } }
2. hosted this object in a Remoting Server
TcpServerChannel channel = new TcpServerChannel(props, bp);
// Register the channel with the runtime remoting services
So, basically the CE DB is running in-proc with this Remoting Server. This is hosted on a regular P2 1GB box.
3. created client WinForms app to connect to this object through remoting with url tcp://myserverip/RM_RemData and distributed this client EXE to various machines within the intranet to execute the GetData and AddData methods
This seems to work perfectly fine and super fast, and i was also concurrently executing the above methods in loops of 100.
So what I don't understand is why most of the posts I read about multi-user scenario here and on the web are always discouraging people to only use CE for single-user desktop? As long as I use the SQL CE ONLY as a Data Store and all logic into my data layer such as the Remotabe Objects, will this be a feasible option for around 10-20 Users since CE allows 256 Connections anyway?
My other questions are with regards to programmatically Import/Export to and from CSV and Excel..is this supported or anything planned?
Would appreciate a detailed response..my product hangs in balance as i need some closure on this
Is there a good way in SQL to select records that have been sent in an excel spreadsheet and import them into a temporary table?
I have a list of order codes that have different seg codes for example:
Order CodeZSeg 7625 ZBL 717009 ZBL 3277 ZCI 8144 ZCI
Each order code is unique and is classifed into a zseq. Depending on this zseg I need to update an existing table with the following field names and values for each order code:
For example for an order code classified as a ZBL I need to insert into an existing table that uses order code as the PK
Value Code: Patrac Value Description: Patient Race Value Type: ST Units: None Template Name: Lab_Master_ Field Name: AOE_BL_Race
There are multiple Value codes for each Zseg that will be inserted for each order code.
Can someone tell me the best way to do something like this?
I have a 3rd party dashboard application that I can only use SQL authenticated logins to connect to the database.
I'm trying to create a query within the application that will directly access an excel file through a linked server.
As a test, I login to SSMS as the sql auth user to run the linked server query below but the following error is returned:
select * from Corporate...[Sheet1$]OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate" returned message "Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.". Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate" reported an error. Authentication failed. Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate".
When I login as a Windows auth user, I can successfully run the above query.
I noticed within the linked server's security definition that I cannot specify a windows auth user as the mapped Remote User or as the Remote login
I've tried creating a Credential object with the identity of the windows user and assign that object to the sql auth user but to no avail. I still get the same error
I am using SQL Server express so the option of an automated server agent job to import the excel file is not available.
I need to create an report from SSRS and then exported it in excel for the user. It has dynamic header/footer and dynamic excel sheet name. The developer told that it is not possible to have both the things dynamic.
I'm working with the following query to try and determine if a user already exists in a DB before adding a new user.
SELECT COUNT (*) AS ENTITY_COUNT FROM ORG_ENTITY INNER JOIN ORG_ENTITY_TYPE ON ORG_ENTITY.N_TYPE_ID = ORG_ENTITY_TYPE.N_TYPE_ID LEFT OUTER JOIN E_MAIL ON ORG_ENTITY.N_ORG_ENTY_ID = E_MAIL.N_ORG_ENTY_ID WHERE (ORG_ENTITY.M_ORG_FIRST = 'paul' AND ORG_ENTITY.M_ORG_LAST = 'test') OR ORG_ENTITY.N_USER_ID = 'TST1'
The thing is there could be an existing DB record with the same name but the new user to be added may have a different N_USER_ID in which case I want to reject the new entry. But if the name is the same and the N_USER_ID already exist then I want to reject the new entry. I'm returning an Int from my query.
Hi All. A client needs to send me some sample data. He has insisted he can query the table in Enterprise Manager via a simple select... "Select * from Table1"...
Now I need to get the data in some simple form (ASCII, Excel, Access, etc.) sent to me.
Can someone please provide me the info so I can pass it on for him to query a table from Enterprise Manager and "export it" to a simple file so I can receive it.
ANY THOUGHTS would be helpfull and GREATLY Appreciated!
Hi! I would like to select the 10 latest logged in users and then display them in a gridview-control.... But Iam not good at SQL, so I would really appreciate if someone could help me to write the select-part for this!! (I use the database 'ASPNETDB.mdf', which is automatically created by VVD 2005 Express Edition)
I have a user table for an organization that can best be described as a pyaramid. We are using the terms parent and child to define the relationship between users. Each user is a child under a specific parent; accept for the top person who is not a child under anyone. Each user can be a parent over many children.
User A has a parent - User B User B has a parent - User C User C has a parent - User D User D has not parent
I want to do is create a select statement that would return all the parents for a particular user. For instance, if I ran the select statement for User A, it would return:
User A User B User C User D
If I ran it for User C, it would return: User C User D
Hi,I using vb.net to do this. I need to retrieve data from a table name "User". The table is in a sql server. I having trouble retrieve data from it.

I'm having this query:SELECTss.subscription_id AS SubscriptionId,s.id AS ScopeId,s.[name] AS ScopeName,s.base AS ScopeBase,dbo.iqGetShapesByScopeAsString(s.id) AS ShapesAsStringFROMsubscription_scope ss,scope sWHEREss.subscription_id = @subscription_idANDss.scope_id = s.idORDER BYs.[name]The select only returns a single row but my database (SQL Server 2005CTP) seems to execute the "iqGetShapesByScopeAsString" function foreach row in the subscription_scope and scope tables. This is a bug,right? The function should be executed only once for each *returned*row in the SELECT, right? I believe that was the case in SQL 2k thoughI can't check it at the moment.// pt
Hi, I have created a login page (webform1) that enables me to enter my user number and password and if correct it re-directs to webform 2 where all data related to the usernumber that was entered in the login page, appears. Now I want to be able to set different re-direct pages dependant upon different users as some may require more privileges then others. As for my query I have 2 types of users: staff and managers. I want to set the login page so that if staff logins in it goes webform 3 and if manager logins in it goes webform 4. My table in the Sql database is called Users & the fields are: unumber(pk), pwd, userRole, forename, surname. I have been advised to use CASE statements, yet I do not know how to use them. Below have left my code of a simple login without the userRole validation. Please help! Sub cmdLogin_ServerClick If ValidateUser(txtUserNumber.Value, txtUserPass.Value) Then Dim tkt As FormsAuthenticationTicket Dim cookiestr As String Dim ck As HttpCookie tkt = New FormsAuthenticationTicket(1, txtUserNumber.Value, DateTime.Now(), _ DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30), chkPersistCookie.Checked, "your custom data") cookiestr = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(tkt) ck = New HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName(), cookiestr) If (chkPersistCookie.Checked) Then ck.Expires = tkt.Expiration ck.Path = FormsAuthentication.FormsCookiePath() Response.Cookies.Add(ck) Dim strRedirect As String strRedirect = Request("ReturnURL") If strRedirect <> "" Then Response.Redirect(strRedirect, True) Else strRedirect = "webform1.aspx" Response.Redirect(strRedirect, True) End If Else Response.Redirect("webform3.aspx", True) End If End Sub
Hi all I've been having a really difficult time finding out how to run a query which selects records from an SQL database for the current logged on user. I've tried a whole manner of different approaches but here is where I am at now: <script runat="server"> Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) If Not Page.IsPostBack Then ds_meobservingcolleagues.SelectParameters(0).DefaultValue = User.Identity.Name End If End Sub </script>
This is not resulting in any error. But it is not returning the records that it should be either. Please can anyone help? I'm sure it shouldn't be this difficult to do
I know this is an easy one and I know I've read it somewhere, but I can't seem to write the correct format to run correctly. I am trying to build a SELECT statement base on the selected values of a dropdown list on a webform. The selected values will be part of the Table name.. ("client_info" & location_option.selecteditem.value) Can someone show me the correct syntax for adding a form variable into a SELECT statement? Thanks
I am really new to SSRS (This is my first report) and I am looking to create a drop down that will allow a user to select the value to appear in a report. Meaning that is my values are:
a b c d
If the user types a B it would "jump to that letter in the selection.

I am running into an issue trying to declaratively set up a SqlDataSource. I want to be able to filter some of my queries based on the user that is currently logged into the web site. I want to do it Declaratively as that's one of my favorite 2.0 features.Is there any way to do this with the Membership information? I know I can use the code behind to set the parameter, or store the User Name in Session Variable, and use a <asp:SessionParameter> but I think there should be a way to bind directly to the Membership user...Am I missing another option, or is there no built in way to do this? Any other suggestions...Thanks

i want to create new sql user and grant him two tables access. we have several databases created on same server so we want to allow only two table in ABC database. user should not be able to see other databases and their tables. And user also should not be able to access any other tables in ABC database except two tables.

I am having issues getting this to work. I have the user login to a page to put in a request for vacation. When they login, I have a label that isn't visible that is equal to their User.Identity.Name. I select the user from the employee table where the username = the label User Identity Name and pull in the emp_id which is the primary key that identifies the user. I need to insert the request into the request table with the emp_id from the select statement, without showing the em_id on the screen. I tried using a hidden field and assigning the emp_id as the value, but it isn't working. Not sure if this is the best way to do this. Really new to ASP.NET 2.0 so I really appreciate any help. Thank you!
