SSIS Newbie Question - Get Strings From Text File Into A Variable

Aug 23, 2007

HI All. I'm trying to tweak the Transfer Logins task to exclude Windows Logins that are local to the Server (e.g. servernameusername) which obviously can't be transferred off the server. Annoying that we have a couple of local Logins on this system instead of all Domain Groups, but we're stuck with them due to firewall issues, and a policy excluding SQL Logins.

My idea is to create a text file as part of my Package that lists Logins to be Excluded From the Transfer - I think I then need to create a New File Connection to the Text File as a Connection Manager, then somehow get that data into a Variable, and then use an Expression to populate the 'LoginsList' Collection from syslogins where loginame not equal to logins in my textfilevariable?

Or maybe I'm over complicating this, and there's an easier solution? Lots of info in Books Online about Expressions and Variables, but having trouble finding examples that I can use. As a DBA, this is my first foray into SSIS, and as you can possibly tell, I'm floundering....

Output And Reading Data From A Text File??

Sep 1, 1999

Hi,

How would I be able to query a table (ie. all people with last name 'Smith'), have that set of data outputted to a regular text file (in a formatted way)

And what's the best way to manipulate that set of data to let's say update a Yes/No field in that table to mark that that those individuals('Smith') which were outputted in that text file?

What about the reverse? If I got a regular text file with Last Name, Social Security(delimited by tab), etc is there a way I can get SQL Server to read that text file and make an update to the database based on the Social security in that text file.

Any help would be immensely appreciated!

Output Query Data To Text File

Apr 17, 2012

I am running SQL Server 2000 and need to output query data to a text file. If I run the following query (Below) using XP_CMDSHELL and BCP, it runs fine and creates a text file with the data output.

However, I need to change the WHERE Field1=10 to a string value WHERE Field1='abc'. When I try to do this I get a general error on the Field1='xyz'. I tried to change the quotes, etc but I am still getting the error.

Command:
Exec master..xp_cmdshell 'bcp "SELECT Field1 FROM Table WHERE Field1=10" queryout c:filename.txt -U UserName -P Password /S SQLServerNam /c'

Output A Packed Decimal To A Text File

Mar 12, 2004

I have an stored procedure/DTS package that creates an output file that I FTP to a mainframe.

The vendor that is receiving the file expects negative amounts to be in a packed decimal format.

IE. Negative 95.46 = 0000954O

I've done a bit of searching to find a function for this, but I must be using the wrong words.

Any suggestions?

Insert Each Csv File Into Their Respective Table (was Newbie Need Help)

Apr 25, 2006

HI all,

I am very new to db. so pardon me for some stupid questions.


I have 3 tables Table1, Table2, and table3.
Table1 and table2 has 5 columns each and table3 has 4 columns.
i have 6 or 7 csv files (these number of files can change) uploaded to a upload directory.
these csv filename contains name of the table. for example table1_ab.csv, table1_cd.csv, table2_ef.csv, table2_gh.csv, table3.aa.csv, table3_bb.csv.

a person goes to a web page and clicks a button.
This is what the button should do.
1) Check how many files are there in the upload directory.
2) use bulk insert to individually insert each csv file into their respective table (the name of the table is in file name).
3) Copy the csv file into backup directory and delete the file from upload directory.

I am using vb.net. any help would me much appriciated.

Thanks

Dec 3, 2006

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to figure out how to output a query as text instead of a tempory table...

I thought perhaps i could use this:

SELECT PRINT CustomerID FROM ORDER_TABLE

But that doesn't work

PRINT CustomerID FROM ORDER_TABLE

Doesn't work either...


I need this so i can print a customised invoice in SQL. That is, unless their is a better way of tackling this problem?

thx for reading :)

Hey,



I'm looking for a good way to rewrite my T-SQL code with 'bcp' to SSIS package, any help would be greatly appreciated?



I have table1 contain account numbers and output-filename for each account,

I need to join table2 and table3 to get data for each account in table1, and then export as a txt file.



Here is my code using bcp (bulk copy)

DECLARE @RowCnt int,
@TotalRows int,
@AccountNumber char(11),
@sql varchar(8000),
@date char(10),
@ArchPath varchar(500)

SET @RowCnt = 1
SET @date = CONVERT(CHAR(10),GETDATE(),110)
SET @ArchPath = '\D$EDATAWorkFoldersSendSendData'
SELECT @TotalRows = count(*) FROM table1
--select @ArchPath

WHILE (@RowCnt <= @TotalRows)
BEGIN
SELECT @AccountNumber = AccountNumber, @output_filename FROM table1 WHERE Identity_Number = @RowCnt
--PRINT @AccountNumber --test
SELECT @sql = N'bcp "SELECT h.HeaderText, d.RECORD FROM table2 d INNER JOIN table3 h ON d.HeaderID = h.HeaderID WHERE d.ccountNumber = '''

Integration Services :: How To Read A Specific String From Text File As Output Variable In SSIS

I am downloading a webpage as a text file in order to read a specific string to assign it as a variable/parameter in order to create an output file name. I would like to know how would I be able to look for a specific string and output as another variable for the rest of the package.

(Newbie) Writing To The Output Of A Script Component

Apr 14, 2008

HI,

I have a script component in my SSIS solution that transforms a URL that points to a picture to an URL that points to a thumbnail of that picture.

I've added an output called Picture to the component, and an outputcolumn called ThumbnailUrl, the code in the component is as follows:

PictureBuffer.AddRow()
PictureBuffer.ItemID = Row.ItemID
PictureBuffer.Url = Row.CopyoffotText
PictureBuffer.ThumbnailUrl = Row.CopyoffotText.Replace("-220.jpg", "-68.jpg")

VS then gives the following error: "Name 'PictureBuffer' is not declared"

What did I miss?
