Create Fiat File Using Trigger in SQL Server

Dear All,
How to Create a Flat File using Trigger in SQL Server?

Take a look at osql/sqlcmd, bcp, COM calls, xp_cmdshell, etc. Here are a few links with code examples:

How to load decimal values into a file using bcp in SQL Server 2000?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to load data from a database table to a text file using bcp on SQL Server 2000. When I'm loading the decimal values, the values before the decimal are not being loaded into the file. How could I load the values before decimals?
Here are the DDLs and DMLs of what I'm trying to run:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Product_Sales](
[Year_of_Sale] [smallint] NOT NULL,
[Product_Type] [varchar](25) NOT NULL,
[Product_Group] [varchar](25) NOT NULL,
[Category_Type] [varchar](25) NOT NULL,
[Category_Group] [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
[Product_Count] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[Product_Amount] [decimal](19, 2) NOT NULL,
[Category_Count] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[Category_Amount] [decimal](19, 2) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Product_Sales] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[Year_of_Sale] ASC,
[Product_Type] ASC,
[Product_Group] ASC,
[Category_Type] ASC,
[Category_Group] ASC
) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT INTO [Yearly_Sales].[dbo].[Product_Sales]
VALUES(2010, 'Online', 'Web', 'Cameras', 'Electronics', 547, 0.00, 0, 0.00)
EXEC [master].[dbo].[xp_cmdshell] 'bcp "SELECT * FROM [Yearly_Sales].[dbo].[Product_Sales]" queryout D:\Yearly_Sales\Product_Sales.dat -c -T -S'
And the output I see in the file is:
2010 Online Web Cameras Electronics 547 .00 0 .00
The values before decimals are being truncated.
Thanks,
Bangaaram
Known is a DROP, Unknown is an OCEAN.

You can modify the decimal column(s) in the table to varchar type before export. But it does not look good.
alter table [dbo].[Product_Sales]
Alter column [Product_Amount] varchar(20)
alter table [dbo].[Product_Sales]
Alter column [Category_Amount] varchar(20)
Does that make any sense?
Known is a DROP, Unknown is an OCEAN.
Basically you modify the decimal column to a varchar type before you run the bcp command for export. You can modify your source table or you can modify them on the fly. It is just a workaround.
Modifying the source wouldn't be a good idea. Never do that if you can't get your desired output.

[Forum FAQ] How do I create calculated measure using AMO in SQL Server Analysis Services?

Introduction
In SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS), you can create a calculated measure in SQL Server Data Tool (SSDT)/Boniness Integrated Development Studio (BIDS). Sometimes you may need to create calculated measure by using AMO in a C# or VB project.
In this article, I will demonstrate so how to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS?
Prerequisites
Before create calculated measure using AMO, you need to ensure that the following components were installed in your server.
The multidimensional database AdventureWorks Multidimensional Model 2012
A SQL Server with SSIS and SSAS installed
The AMO libraries installed:
X86 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
X64 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
Solution
Here is the detail steps to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS.
Open SSDT and create a new SSIS project.
Drag Script Task to the design surface.
Click SSIS-> Variables to open the Variables window and add two variables that used to connect to the server and database.
Create a connection to connect to SSAS server.
Rename the connection name to ssas.
Double click the Script Task to open Script Task Editor.
Add Connection and Database variables to ReadWriteVariables textbox and then click Edit Script button.
Add AMO reference in the Solution Explore window.
Copy the script below and paste it into the script.
Dim objServer As Server
Dim objDatabase As Database
Dim strDataBaseID As String
Dim objCube As Cube
Dim objMdxScript As MdxScript
Dim objCommand As Command
Dim strCommand As String
objServer = New Server
objServer.Connect("localhost")
objDatabase = objServer.Databases("AdventureWorksDW2012Multidimensional-EE2")
strDataBaseID = objDatabase.ID
If objDatabase.Cubes.Count > 0 Then
objCube = objDatabase.Cubes("Adventure Works")
If objCube.MdxScripts.Count > 0 Then
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts(0)
Else
objCube.MdxScripts.Add("MdxScript", "MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
End If
objCommand = New Command
strCommand = "CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[Multipy Measures By 3]"
strCommand = strCommand & " AS [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] * 3, "
strCommand = strCommand & " VISIBLE = 1 ; "
objCommand.Text = strCommand
objMdxScript.Commands.Add(objCommand)
objMdxScript.Update()
objCube.Update()
End If
objServer.Disconnect()
Then you can run this SSIS package to create the calculated measure.

Thanks,
Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?
Thanks! Josh

Create PDF file using PL SQL

Hello All:
I have an requirement of generating a PDF file using Oracle PL SQL program. Can anyone please let me know the procedure/code of doing this?
Thanks,
k Ramesh Gupta

I have steps to generate Excel sheet output, apply appropriate content-type for PDF in the PL/SQL written below, to get the same in PDF. i suppose it should be application/pdf
1. Create a custom DAD if required using Enterprise Manager Console of MidTier for HTTP Server or use Portal DAD itself to implement the solution.
2. Create a new procedure (a webdb solution) to stream the HTML for the excel sheet report which will be downloaded.
a. Login to Portal schema through SQL*Plus or the respective DAD based schema if custom DAD is created. (below example is created in custom DAD - 'scott').
SQL>CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE generateCsv
as
cursor p_emp is select * from PORTAL_DEMO.EMP;
begin
owa_util.mime_header( 'application/vnd.ms-excel', False ); -- Here change the content-type to PDF Format accordingly
htp.print('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="pvasista.csv"');
owa_Util.Http_Header_Close;
for v_emp_cur in p_emp
LOOP
htp.p (v_emp_cur.ename || ',' || v_emp_cur.deptno || chr(13));
END LOOP;
end;
SQL> grant execute on generateCsv to public;
For education purpose getting the report of employee and deptno of al employees from PORTAL_DEMO.EMP table. Implement the necessary query/ Business Logic accordingly.
b. Now access http://midtier_host:port/pls/dad_name/generateCsv, will download a .csv based excel file report as shown in the screenshot below,
3. Open the Portal Page where the link is to be added, createa URL Item Link and add the above URL, select option "Open in new browser window"
4. It can also be enhanced to have filtering enabled on the report by using Portal Form using Option, "Form based on stored procedure" and selecting the above stored procedure.

How to create database link between oracle and SQL Server

Hello Everyone,
Here i have Oracle Database 9i and SQL Server 2005 databases.
I have some tables in sql server db and i want to access from Oracle.
How to create a database link between these two servers
Thanks,

Thanks for Everyone,
I was struggle with this almost 10 days....
I created Database link from Oracle to SQL Server
Now it is fine.........
Here i am giving my servers configuration and proceedure how i created the db link...@
Using Generic Connectivity (HSODBC) we can create db link between Oracle and SQL server.
Machine (1)
DB Version : Oracle 9.2.0.7.0
Operating System : HP-UX Itanuim 64 11.23
IP : 192.168.0.31
Host : abcdbt
Machine (2)
Version : SQL Server 2005
Operating System : Windows server 2003 x86
IP : 192.168.0.175
Host : SQLDEV1
User/PW : sa/abc@123! (Connect to database)
Database : SQLTEST (exsisting)
Table : T (“ T “ is the table existing in SQLTEST database with 10 rows)
Prerequisites in Machine (2):
a)     Oracle 10g software
b)     User account to access SQL Server database (sa/abc@123!)
c)     Existing SQL Server Database (SQLTEST)
d) Tables (testing purpose) (T)
Steps:
1)     Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 (Only SW,No need of database) *(Machine 2)*
2)     Create a DSN where your windows Oracle 10g SW resides *(Machine 2)*
Control panel >> Administrative Tools >> Data Source (ODBC) >> System DSN ADD
You can follow this link also.....
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3442661/Making-a-Connection-from-Oracle-to-SQL-Server.htm
I created DSN as
DSN name : SQLTEST
User : SA/abc@123! (Existing user account)
Host : 192.168.0.175 (machine 2)
Already I have 1 database in SQL Server with the name SQLTEST
You can create DSN with different name also (not same as db name also)
3)     Create a hsodbc init file in $ORACLE_HOME\hs\admin *(Machine 2)*
Create init<DSN NAME> file
Ex: initSQLTEST
Copy inithsodbc to initSQLTEST
And edit
initSQLTEST file
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = SQLTEST    <DSN NAME>*
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF*
save the file....@
4)     Configure Listener.ora *(Machine 2)*
LISTENER_NEW =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.175)(PORT = 1525))
SID_LIST_LISTENER_NEW =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = SQLTEST) *+< Here SQLTEST is DSN NAME >+*
(ORACLE_HOME = G:\oracle 10g\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = hsodbc))
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = G:\oracle 10g\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc) )
:> lsnrctl start LISTENER_NEW
5)     Configure tnsname.ora *(Machine 2)*
SQLTEST11 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.175)(PORT = 1525))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = SQLTEST))
(HS=OK)
:> tnsping SQLTEST11
If No errors then conti….
6)     Configure a file *(Machine 1)*
Cd $TNS_ADMIN ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin)
Create a file
$ vi TEST_abcdbt_ifile.ora
something=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST =192.168.0.175) (PORT=1525))
(CONNECT_DATA=
(SID=SQLTEST))
(HS=OK)
$ tnsping something
$ sqlplus system/manager

Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below.

Hello all..,
Question 1:
I am working on a project that needs to support a database with an inherited legacy schema that you cannot change. The schema is provided below.Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below. Please provide those two XML files. Assume some hypothetical package and class names. Assume that no "fancy" stuff such as lazy initialization, optimistic locking etc is needed at this time.
CREATE TABLE [SURVEY_ANSWERS] (
[ANSWER_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
[QUESTION_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[POSITION] [int] NULL,
[TEXT] [varchar](350) NULL
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
      [QUESTION_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
      [TEXT] [varchar] (350) NULL
GO
ALTER TABLE SURVEY_ANSWERS
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_SURVEY_ANSWERS PRIMARY KEY(ANSWER_ID,QUESTION_ID);
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] ADD
       PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
            [QUESTION_ID]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_ANSWERS] ADD
       FOREIGN KEY
            [QUESTION_ID]
      ) REFERENCES [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
            [QUESTION_ID]
      )Question 2:
Assume that you are working on a project developing, say, a banking application. You are the Architect and thinking that Hibernate ORM should be used for the entire access to the relational database. As usual, you have created (or auto-generated) a set of HBM XML files as well as POJOs for which you define the mappings. Assume now that a new requirement has just popped up. The system needs to be able to import new bank accounts and user information in bulk from a very large XML file at once and store it in the database. Assume the XML file contains all necessary information to populate fields in database tables. As performance is very important for this operation. Given this description, how would you approach the problem?
Please describe briefly.

Can't create a file using fm 'File_Get_Name'

hi gurus,
Can you please help me with this issue. There's a program that have to create a file using the said fm. It was working before when it was set in OS NT. But when the settings and codes have been changed to UNIX, the program was able to generate the program. But the file doesn't exist. It seems it doesn't create a file in that server.
What else do I need to check?
Points will be rewarded. Thanks
Here's the code for your reference:
CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'
       EXPORTING
*         CLIENT                  = SY-MANDT
            logical_filename        = 'Z_SYSBRIDGE'
         OPERATING_SYSTEM        = SY-OPSYS
*         PARAMETER_1             = ' '
*         PARAMETER_2             = ' '
*         USE_PRESENTATION_SERVER = ' '
*         WITH_FILE_EXTENSION     = ' '
*         USE_BUFFER              = ' '
       IMPORTING
*         emergency_flag          =
*         file_format             =
            file_name               = ltfile-out_path
       EXCEPTIONS
            file_not_found          = 1
            OTHERS                  = 2.

Hi Maui,
Did you check SM69, where the code that ties to this FM creates a file after it execute your FM...
SM69 are os commands that does UNIX execution or other OS commands...
or maybe you have missed another FM like FM 'SXPG_OS_COMMAND' or of some sort.
Thanks

How to write a file using mod pl/sql

Why are you wasting your time coding from scratch using the PL/SQL Web Toolkit instead of the APEX framework?
From Re: how to write a file using mod pl/sql it appears that you are not using APEX, so a number of the approaches APEX offers are not relevant. You appear to be looking for a file download solution using the <tt>wpg_docload.download_file</tt> method, such as:
create or replace procedure download_file (
    p_filename in     varchar2
, p_mimetype in     varchar2
, p_content   in out nocopy blob)
is
begin
-- Set up HTTP header.
-- Use "application/octet" as default MIME type.
owa_util.mime_header(nvl(p_mimetype, 'application/octet'), false);
-- Set the size so the browser knows how much to download.
htp.p('Content-length: ' || dbms_lob.getlength(p_content));
-- Filename will be used as default by the browser in "Save as..."
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' || p_filename || '"');
-- Close header.
owa_util.http_header_close();
-- Stream the file content to the browser.
wpg_docload.download_file(p_content);

Is it possible to create a two node cluster with SQL server 2012 STD on node1 and SQL Server 2008 ENT on node2 on a Windows server 2012?

Hi All,
Is it possible to create a two node cluster with SQL server 2012 STD on node1 and SQL Server 2008 ENT on node2 on a Windows server 2012?
aa

I think you are confused with the way cluster is installed. Installing SQL on cluster is a two step process. On first node you create a new SQL cluster and on second node you need "AddNode" action.
Same edition media has to be used in above two operation.
you can install two separate instances with one enterprise and one standard.

No ability to create PDF Files using Acrobat 6.01_6.06 after installing Word 2010. (Windows XP)

Since installing Word 2010 (upgrading from Word 2003) there are no visable PDF Icons nor ability to create PDF Files using Adobe Acrobat 6.06. Operating system is Windows XP. Browser is IE8. Various attempts to bypass this situation have not been successful. No problems had been experienced earlier using Acrobat 6.01 through 6.06 with Word 2003 and earlier Word versions during the passed 10 years or so. Adobe's support is not responding to recognize mentioned situations, nor is there any a solution to fix the problem. Low volume small businesses,with limited need to create PDF files, are being considerably burdened to substante a $200 investment to upgrade to Acrobat X, which may as well not be the solution. It is appealed for Adobe Forums readers to share similar experiences with possible fixes at hand. Responses will be greatly appreciated. Thank you...

Your response is greatly appreciated, Bernd...
Unfortunately, those of us who milk software packages for eons such as
Acrobat 6.06 Standard, a full version of Acrobat X is quoted to be $299
with no ability to upgrade since 7.0 is the cutoff which remains to be
only $139.
It seems to me, Military personal, retired or just ole toots who did
their think, would offer considerations such as Staples, Lowe's, and
other big boxes offer. Such is greed for some who do not consider
alternatives above their noses...
