I can understand your angst, I knew DTS, it worked well and it was fairly simple. But they (MS) have moved on and inflicted us with SSIS, there is no going back.
Alternatively you can write your own ETL solution. This is what we did rather than use SSIS.

hi,
i made some procedures that ends in a edit process(edit,add,delete) or nothing, like this:
if not exists(select * from mytable where id = @whatever)
begin
...edit something
end
--else
--begin
--... do nothing here
--end
So, i trigger this stuff in c#(whatever event doesn´t matter) and i have to display info msg in label, like this:
OK: sale added
ERROR: can´t delete, client in sales table
OK, sometimes i don´t know where it enters/falls, i think on counting rows in datagridview to check a delete or add for exemple, on a edit i use a compare(C# datagridview)
i´m thinking on creating a trigger or an extra table to feed the info label, i don´t know really
(no need to place code, just ideas)
Thanks

Could you break this question to pieces, since there is mices t-sql and user interface components. I take it you want to achieve some kind of error handling, but I'm not sure

Ok I see,
Could you use output parameters in sp?
Assign the output parameter to something during the execution, based on what has happened inside the sp. Then after executing the sp from c# you should have a value in that parameter. Extract it and show it in the label.
I typically use enum types (mainly for localization reasons) in c# in similar situations (I just use the same numbers in sp than in c#) but if you just want to return text, there's no need to use numbers.

I'm not much of an SQL coder, but don't know where else to go. I have a small script that I would like to have modified. Right now it is a 'hard coded' date, meaning that I have to manually go in each time and make changes to it in order to pull the date range I want. I want to be able to have it run automatically (using additional software) for the previous month. Example: On Oct 1, 2008, I would produce a report, using this script, for the previous month, Sept 1 2008 - Sept 30 2008. Can it be done? I have copied the script below:
DECLARE @DateFrom VARCHAR(15)
DECLARE @DateTo VARCHAR(15)
--Date Selection
SET @DateFrom = '01/04/2008' --MM/DD/YYYY
SET @DateTo = '01/04/2008' --MM/DD/YYYY
select
Primary_InsPlanName AS [Plan Name],
DoctorName AS [Doctor Name],
CPTCode AS [CPT Code],
Modifier AS Modifier,
sum (ChargeCount) AS [Total Units],
SUM (ChargeAmount) AS [Total Billed Amount]
from vwIR_OBJ_stdCharges
--Insurance Plan Selection
where primary_insPlanNum IN ('300','303','449','455','473','497','504','530','2181','2303','10018','13422','13483','13671')
AND cast(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),PostDate,101) as dateTime) >= cast(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), @DateFrom, 101) as dateTime)
AND cast(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),PostDate,101) as dateTime) <= cast(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), @DateTo, 101) as dateTime)
group by
Primary_InsPlanName,
DoctorName,
CPTCode,
Modifier
Order by
Primary_InsPlanName,
DoctorName,
CPTCode,
Modifier
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!

hi,
forget the code, what do you want to do???
listen, don´t set date, use getdate(), datediff() or dateadd() function often

It's a report that right now I have to manually go in and set the dates. It's always run on the first day of the month and the data we are looking for is the previous month's data (i.e., October 1st, I will run it for 9/1/08-9/30/08).
|

You can calculate the From and To days in your sp.
First day of previous month:
SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, -1, DATEADD(DAY, - DAY(getdate()) + 1, cast(Floor(cast(GETDATE() AS float)) AS datetime)))
Last day of previous month:
SELECT DATEADD(s, -1 ,DATEADD(DAY, -DATEPART(DAY, getdate()) + 1, cast(Floor(cast(GETDATE() AS float)) AS datetime)))

Thanks for the info. My question would be where in the original script would your statement go? Sorry, I'm a SQL idiot. . .

DECLARE @DateFrom VARCHAR(15)
DECLARE @DateTo VARCHAR(15)
SELECT @DateFrom = DATEADD(MONTH, -1, DATEADD(DAY, - DAY(getdate()) + 1, cast(Floor(cast(GETDATE() AS float)) AS datetime)))
SELECT @DateTo = DATEADD(s, -1 ,DATEADD(DAY, -DATEPART(DAY, getdate()) + 1, cast(Floor(cast(GETDATE() AS float)) AS datetime)))

I have a stored procedure as follows, which runs OK on SQL Server 2005.
CREATE PROCEDURE spGetChildAccounts
@ParentId Char(12)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
WITH Subsidaries (ACCOUNTID,ParentID)
AS
(
SELECT ACCOUNTID, ParentID FROM Accounts WHERE ParentID = @parentID
UNION ALL
SELECT Accounts.ACCOUNTID, Accounts.ParentID FROM Accounts
INNER JOIN Subsidaries ON Accounts.ParentID = Subsidaries.ACCOUNTID
)
SELECT * FROM Accounts INNER JOIN Subsidaries ON Accounts.ACCOUNTID = Subsidaries.ACCOUNTID
END
The problem is that it has to run on SQL Server 2000 sp3 and when I try to create the procedure on the 2000 server it get an error "Incorrect syntax near the keyword WITH".
I am assuming the WITH statement is not supported in 2000 and would appreciate any help converting the above stored procedure to a vaild SQL Server 2000 format.

Try to generate compact-able script for your stored procedure from SQL2005 for SQL2000.

Thanks for the advice, unfortunately you are assuming I know what I am doing. Truth is I am currently on a very steep learning curve and I am only just getting to grips with T-SQL. That said I have no idea what you mean by a compact-able script or even how to go about generating one as you suggest.

I beleive the with structure you are seeing is not available in 2000 (sorry to state the obvious). What it is doing is allowing you to use a sub select. So the select in () is named Subsidaries and is then used in the join in the second select statement.
Work around would be a view ot temp table to isolate the first select so you can use it in the second select (or completely redesign the query)
OR
You could upgrade SQL Server

The WITH indicates a CTE (Common Table Expression) which was only introduced with SQL Server 2005. Probablt a temp table to replace your Subsidaries select is the best bet.
Hope this helps

Hello Friends,
I am using SSIS and I have SQL Server Source and the same Destination. I have a column datetime created in my source and it contains data for about 15 years. I just want to retrieve the data for the current month. i.e, from September 1, 2008 to September 17, 2008. Can anyone plz help me, how can I achieve this?
Using Conditional Split Transformation or SQL Query for this? I want to do this task using SSIS.
Thank you.

Try the following
select *
from [Table]
where datepart(m,[Date field]) = 9
and datepart(d,[Date field]) between 1 and datepart(d,getdate())

Thank you so much for all your replies.
The business logic was that there are two units associated with a single machine. So, the number fields were units that I wanted together in one.
If there are two columns UnitID1 and UnitID2, both having integers in it and if we wish to get the UnitID1 and UnitID2 as “UnitID1, UnitID2” in our destination Stations, then we use the following derived column expression. UnitID1 has no null values, but UnitID2 might have null values also.
[Copy of UnitID1] + (ISNULL([Copy of UnitID2]) ? " " : " , " + [Copy of UnitID2])
'Copy' as I have used Data Conversion transformation to change the datatypes before using derived column. Thank you once again all of you.

hi,
I have a table with persons having a integer as a unique key.
now i've made a second table groups defined by the persons in it.
the combination of the uniek keys of the persons should be my unique key in the groups table.
for example
1. person a
2. person b
3. person c
first group is
1,2
second group is
1,3
third group is
2,3
fourth group is
1,2,3
Does anyone has any idea how i can store this data easely as unique key and still find the related data in an easy way ?
Data delivered to search a group are the combinations of the persons.
greetz and thx
Kurt

I'm not sure I follow you, but shouldn't you have a table of Groups
1. Group1
2. Group2
3. Group3
Then a table to represent the many-to-many relationships
Person Group
1 1
1 2
1 4
2 1
2 3
2 4
3 2
3 3
3 4
