Adhoc vs PROC

Hi Guru,

When I ran my adhoc script below it generated only 45000 reads or 4 seconds but when I wrapped it into procedure it took about two minutes or millions of reads. The parameters calling both adhoc and proc are indeed the same. I'm pretty 99.9% sure that the proc does not recompile because I don't mix up between DDL and DML, no temp tables or any thing to cause proc to recompile. The big difference is adhoc used index scan for 45% but proc used bookmark lookup for 75%. Why it's so difference since they both returned the same results?

Please help...

Below is my code,

When wrapped in SP have you recompiled for the first time to execute the same, check the estimated execution plan from QA in this case that explains why there is delay.

Hi Silaphet,

You might suffer from parameter sniffing. Google for this term to find
out what it is and how you can try to deal with it.

You should also consider creating three procedures for the three
versions of the SELECT statement, and change your current stored proc
into a simple IF ELSE tree to call either one of them. This way, each
stored proc can get an execution plan that is otimized for its
parameters.

Run this:

select objectproperty(object_id('yoursp'), 'ExecIsAnsiNullsOn'),
objectproperty(object_id('yoursp'), 'ExecIsQuotedIdentOn')

If any of these return 0, recreate the procedure and make sure that
the settings ANSI_NULLS and QUOTED_IDENTIFIER are ON. This matters if
there is an indexed view or an index on a computed column. They can
only be used if these two settings are active, and these two are saved
with the stored procedure.

It could also depend how you pass the parameters, as Hugo discussed,
but we don't that. If the script is your actual ad-hoc script, it
may be that it works better if you copy the parameters to local variables.

"(StartDate BETWEEN @.FromDate-365 AND @.ToDate-365)"

What happens on leap years?

It's impossible to tell what the performance of this query is going to
be like without knowing how all of the tables and views are structured.
I'd imagine that your biggest issue is going to be with the range of
dates that you're dealing with, but there's no way to know for sure
without knowing the table structure, view definitions, and statistical
distribution of data in the tables.

My advice: If it's not a proc that's being used a lot during the day,
try defining it with the RECOMPILE option (see docs) so that the
procedure gets re-optimized each time you run it.

Adding Weekend data to Monday

We have a data extract prcess that runs daily. In SQL Script, there is a
variable that equals to 1 (meaning 1 day worth of data). We run this monday
through friday at 9:00 PM. Now the client wants, if there is any processing
on the weekend (Saturday/Sunday) it should be added to the monday's data.
This is an automated process and we need to keep it like that. The question
is, how can I modify the script so that it picks up the daily data Tuesday
through friday and 3 days of data (Saturday, Sunday and Monday) on mondays ?
Thanks for any help.Do you want a sum or the rows on their own, only presenting those on the
weekdays ?
You have to specify your expected results a bit.

Do you want to get something like
Tu-1,we-1,th-1.fr-1,m-4
...if there is data for every day.
Or do you want to build a sum of some value for thse days ?
The best things would be to provide us with some DDL and sample data.

Do you want a sum or the rows on their own, only presenting those on the
weekdays ?
You have to specify your expected results a bit.

Adding Weekend data to Monday

We have a data extract prcess that runs daily. In SQL Script, there is a
variable that equals to 1 (meaning 1 day worth of data). We run this monday
through friday at 9:00 PM. Now the client wants, if there is any processing
on the weekend (Saturday/Sunday) it should be added to the monday's data.
This is an automated process and we need to keep it like that. The question
is, how can I modify the script so that it picks up the daily data Tuesday
through friday and 3 days of data (Saturday, Sunday and Monday) on mondays ?

Adding ScriptTask programatically

Hi,

I'm developing tool for generating SSIS packages.

I need to add ScriptTask to package programatically and set its script code.

There is no problem for adding package, but I don't know how to set its script code, programatically.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance, Borko

The trick is to use ScriptTaskCodeProvider class, PutSourceCode method.

Monicker argument is build from ScriptTask.VsaProjectName property.

It is usefull to analyze valid package XML during this action.

Regards, Borko

Adding SCRIPT and LOOK UP components using C#

Hi,

Could you please tell me how to add SCRIPT and LOOK UP component to a data flow using C#? Also, is there any artilces/site which gives information about the SSIS programming?

Regards,

Gopi

from the bol: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136025(sql.90).aspx

Douglas,

The bol link gives information about the basic components and tasks. I'm looking for more information related to the components like LOOK UP transerformation, SCRIPT componenet, Conditional Branching component. Could you please let me if you know where we get reference material ?

Regards,

Gopi

Adding components programatically is pretty much the same for any component - you just need to be aware of specific properties for each, and they are described in BOL.

The exception is the script component which relies on the VSA project infrastructure - we are looking to improve this capability in the future. Having said that, if you can programatically create a package, you certainly have the skills needed to write a custom component rather than using a script component - custom components are more flexible and easier to reuse, especially programatically.

Adding row with values in script

Hi,

In a dataflow script I can Add an empty row using

OutputBuffer.AddRow().

But how can I put values into the row?

Regards,
HenkHenk,
Intellisense can help you here. If you type "Output0Buffer." a menu will appear and somewhere in there will be the names of the available columns. It makes it all very easy.
Typically the usage would be:

with Output0Buffer.
.AddRow()
.col1 = <value>
.col2 = <value>
end with

You can see an example of this here: http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/07/27/1877.aspx

Adding Reference and Importing .NET into Script Transformation

I have a .NET component that I want to import into a Script Transformation of a Data Flow. Going into the script code (editing Script transformation and clocking "Design Script" button), I try to "Add Reference" to the component (Add Reference selection under "Project" menu), but I do not see it - nor do I have the option to Browse for the component.

How do I establish a reference to an external .NET component so I can use it in my transformation? It seems unnecessary to have to add all of the class modules for the .NET component into the transformation or Copy/Paste the code from those same class modules just to execute that code?

Any ideas?

Many thanks...

You'll need to put the assembly into the framework folder for it to be found by the Add Reference dialog-

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.<whatever>\

You will also need to GAC it for runtime.

|||Here is the current BOL comment on this subject, from the updated topic "Using the .NET Framework and Other Assemblies in the Script Component:"

The .NET tab of the Add Reference dialog box in Microsoft Visual Studio for Applications is largely limited to assemblies from the Microsoft .NET Framework class library. The contents of the list are determined by file location and not by installation in the global assembly cache (GAC) or by other assembly properties. The Add Reference dialog box in VSA does not include the Browse button that is present in Microsoft Visual Studio for locating and referencing other managed assemblies, and does not include the COM tab for referencing COM components. Furthermore, you cannot cause assemblies from other locations to be displayed in this list in VSA by adding other folder names under the AssemblyFolders registry key, as described in the Microsoft Knowledge Base for use with Visual Studio.

I have a very simple .dll with a method that returns a string.

I can see it, and therefore reference it through the script. However, when I run the package I get the following error:

Could not load file assembly ‘Test_dll’, version=1.0.0.0,Culture=neutral, Publickey=null’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

What does it mean?

Thanks.

|||I see that publickey is null, hence it's not strong named, hence it could not have been placed in the GAC. You need to strong name it (look up docs for sn.exe) and place it in the GAC (gacutil /if mydll.dll). Hope this helps.|||

Where do I add the DLL and GAC it - on the Client machine performing the development or on the local SQL Server machine?

I assume you will execute the package on the workstation during development, so it will need to be GAC'd there just for testing the package, and when you deploy to the server it will also need to be in the server's GAC.|||If the package is saved in File System as opposed to SQL Server, am I correct in assuming that the package, even initiated from a command prompt or BAT/CMD file, still "runs" on the SQL Server?|||The package runs on the machine that is running the bat file (dtexec).|||

So is there a way to refence other assemblies from a VSA script task. For example we have a web service that uses WSE and need to reference this from our script. We also have a generic proxy which uses this which we need to reference. How do we do this?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm working with one of our .Net guys on this and he recoiled and squirmed his face when I talked about putting DLLs into Windows\Microsoft.Net\Framework folder. And I can kinda see his point. VSA does seem rather limited in this respect.

-Jamie|||Unfortunately there is not.

I likewise recoiled and squirmed about having individuals (including myself) cluttering the .NET Framework directory with their homemade DLLs, and squirmed even more about saying so in BOL...which is why the paragraph only hints at the solution for others to deduce.

A peculiar restriction indeed of VSA.

Thanks for the confirmation Doug.

We've got 2 options at the moment. Stick them in .NET framework dir or roll our own tasks. Guess which is looking most likely at the moment!!!

-Jamie|||Its worth pointing something out here that I believe to be true.

The DLL does need to get put into the .NET Framework directory as Doug has said - but only to enable you to use it at design-time. The DLL does not need to be there at runtime - VSA can pick it up from the GAC. To prove this - change the name of one of your DLLs that has been put in this folder in order for VSA to use it. You'll get errors at design-time because VSA won't be able to find the DLL but your package will still execute successfully if the DLL is GAC'd. This means that the DLL only has to go into the nasty .NET Framework directory on development machines - not on your machines that execute the packages in a live environment

Perhaps this is obvious to people that know .Net intimately but it was a pleasant surprise to me.

-Jamie|||Just for future reference, a BOL link to the topic Doug mentions. It doesn't highlight the runtime vs design-time GAC requirement though.

Adding permissions to an AD user on a remote database

I was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I am lookin
g
for a way to automate (in a script format) the addition of a user to a
database on a remote server. We have an application that requires that the
user have Owner permissions on 3 databases and 1 store procedure. Manually
connectiing to 400 workstations will be a huge pain..I'm not sure what you mean by 400 workstations - if a login
needs access to databases and stored procedures, you would
set that at the server level in SQL Server and in whatever
databases.
Unless there is something in the application itself that has
to be coded which would be an application issue
If you are just trying to add the login and user to the
databases, you can script these using t-sql commands. See
books online topics for sp_grantlogin, sp_grantdbaccess,
sp_addrolemember.

The previous post mentioned to use: sp_grantlogin, sp_grantdbaccess,
sp_addrolemember which got me to here <see working code below>
How can I verify or check to see a user is already a member of the role ONE

Example: If I am trying to add a user to the 'db_owner' role on the DB1
database and they are already listed as a member I would like to skip the
sp_addrolemember command.
This is all I could find:
IF SUSER_SID('domain\userid') IS NULL begin
but this only seems to find out if the user has a sid, not if the user is
listed in the DB1 database as a db_owner

I was looking at the second record set for "sp_helplogins" and it has
multiple columns (Login Name, DB Name, UserName, UserorAlias) It appears
that when I run it the columns tell me: (UserID, Database Name, Permission
Type, Member/User)
Is that right?

Adding numerous login via script

Hi,

Can anyone point me in the direction of a script that incorporates sp_addlogin, which allows for adding 200 sql authentication logins from an excel spreadsheet, or a temporary sql table with the id info, containing the username, password, and def db?

I'm trying to avoid adding each new login one by one.

EXEC sp_addlogin 'username', 'password', 'default database'Thanks, BPH

A simple approach is to create an expression in your Excel spreadsheet that builds the Exec sp_addlogin line. Copy the formula down to all the rows, then copy/paste the value into Query Analyzer.

If you have loaded the columns into a database table, you can execute a Select statement that builds the lines. Again, copy and paste the results and execute them. Assume you have built a table call logintemp with username, pwd, and dbase columns:

Select 'Exec sp_addlogin ''' + username + ''', ''' + pwd + ''', ''' + dbase + ''''
From logintemp

You need to double the quote marks to yield a quote in the output string.

|||Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

Adding new columns to all tables using a script

Hi, I'm trying to add a modified datetime and userid to all 72 tables in my
SQL 2000 database. I have the script to do one table, and a cursor, but it
won't run across all tables. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks...

DECLARE @.tName varchar(40)
DECLARE C1 CURSOR FOR
select name from sysobjects where type = 'U'
OPEN C1
FETCH NEXT FROM C1 INTO @.tName
-- Check @.@.FETCH_STATUS to see if there are any more rows to fetch
WHILE @.@.FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
-- This is executed as long as the previous fetch succeeds
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE
SET ARITHABORT ON
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET ANSI_PADDING ON

COMMIT
BEGIN TRANSACTION
ALTER TABLE @.tName ADD
ModifiedDT datetime NULL,

As this is not production code then you may want to check out the
undocumented sp_MSforeachtable

There are a number of errors in your script:

> DECLARE @.tName varchar(40)
> DECLARE C1 CURSOR FOR

While not an error, I recommend that you make your cursors INSENSITIVE
as a matter of routine. The default keyset-driven cursors can sometimes
give nasty surprises.

> select name from sysobjects where type = 'U'
> OPEN C1
> FETCH NEXT FROM C1 INTO @.tName
> -- Check @.@.FETCH_STATUS to see if there are any more rows to fetch
> WHILE @.@.FETCH_STATUS = 0

I recommend that you write cursor loops as

OPEN cur
WHILE 1 = 1
BEGIN
FETCH cur INTO @.var1, @.var2...
IF @.@.fetch_status <> 0
BREAK
-- Real job follows here.
END
DEALLOCATE cur

By only having one FETCH statement you make your code safer, because it's
easy to change the SELECT statement, and the new column to the first
FETCH, but forget the second, which may be the screens below.

There is no point in executing the SET statements in the loop, and
there is no point to make this a transaction. Not that it is wrong
either.

> ModifiedUserID int NULL

Here are two serious flaws: ALTER TABLE does not accept a variable.
You need to use dynamic SQL for this. (Or sp_MSforeachtable.)

And the GO there is completely out of place. GO is not an SQL command,
but an instruction to the query tool to separate the commands into
different batches. Thus, this batch will fail with a compilation
error, because the BEGIN after WHILE does not have an END.

> FETCH NEXT FROM C1

And if you thought what I said about FETCH above was silly, look here!
Here you don't insert into a variable, but produce a result set.

Adding Formula in CRYSTAL REPORT

Hi,

I am using a Crystal reports in order to get the information from the database (ORACLE 9).
The source of data is the script which I added via add command using ORACLE OLE Provider.

I would like to say that now I am trying to implement CR formulas in order to give the
following message :
"NO USERS LOGIN"

I wanted that when there is no user connected to the database Crystal Report gives this message.

In order to that I created the following forumla from the formula Tab, but it didn't give any
message on crystal reoport, when no user login to the database:

Formula 1

if count ({command.USER}) < 0
then "No User Login to Database"

or

Formula 1

if count ({command.USER}) < 1
then "No User Login to Database"

I tried to drag this formula on various section of reports (Detail, Report header), but it
did'nt work.

But when I used greater than sign instead of using less than size, this formula works and
gives the message.

For Example:

Formula 2

if count ({command.USER}) > 0
then "User Login to Database"

Could someone please inform what changes I made in the formula 1 in order to display the message
"No User Login to Database", when there is no user login to database.

I also like to say that the routine which I am using in the Crystal Report gives me information
of several Users who are connecting to the database.

Thanks

DavidI think that's normal, because crystal create a connection to your database to verify the number of user connections. So I think that you must put the following formula in your report:

if count ({command.USER}) < 2
then "No User Login to Database"

To verify what I say just print the field {command.USER} to see his value.|||Hi ariqa,
Use the following formula

if isnull ({command.USER})
then "No User Login to Database"

Adding Field or Stored Procedure to MSDE

Is there a way to add a field or a stored procedure to a server running MSDE? Like a script on the command line or?? how can this be done.

Thank you,Sure can. Check out the osql command-line utility, which lets you run individual T-SQL statements or script files. Or, there are several tools you can use to manage MSDE:

ASP.NET Enterprise Manager, an open source SQL Server and MSDE management tool.

ASP.NET WebMatrix (which includes a database management tool) from this web site (click on the Web Matrix tab at the top of this page).

Microsoft's Web Data Administrator is a free web-based MSDE management program written using C# and ASP.NET, and includes source code.

You can also access MSDE using Access.

adding dbo to db_owner

Im duplicating a database by running the script below. This works fine. My only problem is that the dbo user does not by default have any role memberships in the new database hence no access. I have tried using sp_addrolemember but dbo is not a valid user for this procedure. Adding dbo to the db_owner role through the sql2005 MS works fine, but I would very much like to script this. Any suggestions?

--copy database
use master;
alter database polaris_regular set single_user with rollback immediate;
DROP DATABASE polaris_regular;
backup database polaris to disk = 'c:\tmp\polarisbak.bak' with INIT,format;
restore filelistonly from disk = 'c:\tmp\polarisbak.bak';
restore database polaris_regular from disk = 'c:\tmp\polarisbak.bak'
with move 'polaris' to 'C:\Data\polaris_regular.mdf',
move 'polarisLog' to 'C:\Data\polaris_regularLog.mdf';dbo is always a member of db_owner. You should never have to add it explicitly.|||you may want prefix your objects with [dbo], like [dbo].[polaris_regular]|||Thanks guys.

Adding a web reference (web service) to an SSIS script task?

Is it possible to do this under SSIS 2005? How? I see I can add a reference to system.web.services.dll.. but then what?

The web service was developed in vb.net/vs.net 2005 and I have no problem adding and consuming it from a web page developed using vs.net 2005 - asp.net/vb.net.

Thanks for any help or information.

VSA won't allow you set a web reference. You can compile the proxy created by Visual Studio and reference that.
|||

Jay is absolutely correct. Script Task uses VSA as its dotnet editor and that does not support web references.

Although it doesn't help you much now...the functionality you are after will be in katmai. In the meantime, do what Jay suggested.
