Fuzzy Lookup addin Query

I am using Excel 2013, I have installed fuzzy lookup, it got installed without any hassle but it doesn't show up in Excel.
Load behavior of fuzzy add-in in COM Add-ins shows "A runtime error occurred during the loading of the COM Add-ins."
If I try to run Add-in then I get following error:
"The common language runtime could not be loaded by C:\Users\Vicky\AppData\Local\Apps\Microsoft\Fuzzy Lookup Add-In For Excel\Bin\FuzzyLookupAddInForExcel.vsto|vstolocal. Contact your administrator for further assistance."

Hi,
Based on the error message, this issue usually occur with fuzzy lookup not installed completely. Would you like to tell me where did you download the add-in? I tested to download
here and installed/worked well in my local environment ( Windows 8.1 64bit and Office 2013 32bit). If you did not download from here, please try this installation copy.
Then, if you were also download with above link, I recommend we clean-remove it and re-install it with
Windows clean boot.
Please Note:
Uninstall any previous versions of Fuzzy Lookup Add-In for Excel. Folder path:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apps\Microsoft\Fuzzy Lookup Add-In For Excel
Right-click Setup.exe and Run As Administrator.
Hope it's helpful.

Design Problem When SSIS Get String From Web to Do Fuzzy Lookup

Hi!
In my previous post Search Data by Fuzzy Lookup in Real Time
Scenario, I've tested required functions to build a sample website and SSIS, now it's time to polish my design. Since user will query a name from Web, SSIS is supposed to get a string to do
Fuzzy Lookup. I wonder how I can design to let fuzzy lookup consume String as input instead of a structure (like OLE DB, EXCEL, Flat File, etc ) .
Now I use table as datasource to do a fake input. The SQL_CMD variable will dynamically be replaced from Web input. It seems Fuzzy Lookup component needs a structure to be an input.
Do you have any design idea for my scenario ? Thank you!

How are you executing the fuzzy lookup package ? Is it using command line or using asp.net code ?
In SSIS package we can create variables and assign any strings to these variables while running the ssis package in asp.net.
Refer

Also have you gone through SOUNDEX option of TSQL

Fuzzy Lookup Transform not writing to destination

I'm using MSSQL 2008R2 on a MS Server 2008 R2.
I've tried using a flat file, excel, and creating tables to use the Fuzzy Lookup transform.
But each time, the source object and Fuzzy Lookup transform turn yellow, but the destination is never reached.
I'm not trying anything fancy for this now, I have been reduced to just trying to match some test data to see if I was doing anything wrong.
For my source, it is simply a single column table, we will call it table A, with Oatmen, Juce, and Conut in the Name column.
The reference table, table B has Oatman, Juice and Coconut in the Name column.
IS there a known issue with the Fuzzy lookup that I have not found?
Thanks

Fuzzy Lookup SQLDUMP when run in 32 bit

I'm running a SSIS package on a 64 bit machine that has to run in 32 bit runtime as several data sources are from excel.
After I've loaded the source data into SQLServer EE [64 bit] I run a fuzzy lookup to match & append some columns. The data flow runs fine independently when I set Run64BitRuntime to True but fails when I run the whole package in 32 bit.
There are no telling error messages in BIDS and I enabled full logging to sysssislog. The data flow reads all of the oledb source records but the fuzzy lookup remains yellow before SQLDUMPER_ERRORLOG.log runs and the package fails.
The Log reads:

Is there anyway fix the above error and to run my package with this fuzzy lookup within a 32 bit runtime on a 64 bit machine?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
It's easy to reproduce, this seems to be a problem with the x64 fuzzy lookup task:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/488387/fuzzy-lookup-triggers-sqldumper-even-with-very-small-dataset-with-run64bitruntime-set-to-false
You can use a single package for your 32Bit dataflow. In your 64Bit package use the "Execute Process Task" to execute your 32Bit package with the dtexec.exe located in the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\".
Under "Process" you can use following settings:
Executable: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe
Arguments: /F "COMPLETE PATH TO YOUR 32BIT PACKAGE"

Although I'm not a software engineer, I've done some research on this...
This is a common entry type
WebProcess is trying to accerss a mach service, a component of the oepertaing system
Sandbox(ing) is a design concept for software, which should help apps be more stable & make it harder for malware ( viruses, et al ) to hijack an app for potentially nefarious purposes
So the operating system is informing the software developers, in this case @ Apple, that WebProcess is attempting to access something that it either shouldn't or needs to be given the correct permissions to access
There is nothing wrong with your computer. This is a tool to help developers find where holes exist in their sandboxed apps. There is nothing that you can do to fix this & it shouldn't cause any performance issues
WebProcess is a separate process from Safari. Basically, Safari is the user interface to the browser & WebProcess is the web page. Because it is usually the web page that causes crashes, Safari & WebProcess run independently of each other. This way, when WebProcess crashes, it won't take down Safari. Rather than rebooting the whole app, WebProcess needs only refresh the open tabs

Real world use of Lookup, Fuzzy Lookup and Fuzzy Grouping?

Hello Experts,
Could someone please tell me the use of lookup, fuzzy lookup and fuzzy grouping tasks giving one example of each?
I know the work what these tasks do but I want to know in which scenario and for what functionality do we use these tasks?
Appreciate if you write down your own experiences.
Please no URL's of MSDN/TechNet and so on. I am tired reading it.
-Vaibhav Chaudhari

Hello Vaibhav,
A use of lookup: need to verify if a record or a corresponding entry exists in target before inserting it or not, it is also possible to use for merging / syncing data.
Fuzzy Lookup Transformation: is when you need to find similarities in text, in simple words it is the T-SQL SOUNDEX function, does it sound like what it does to you? So if you have say car brand names e.g. BMW and VW this function will confidentially match
these (depends on level chosen) even though they are not closely related. But it would not match BMW to GMC.
Fuzzy Grouping is when you need to just group related text. It is a close cousin to the lookup, but gets applied to text sets and forms them, too. Used for data de-duplication (by match score).

Exect difference between Fuzzy lookup and Fuzzy grouping

Hi all,
Can you pls explain difference between Fuzzy lookup and Fuzzy grouping in simple word,pls
Thanks
Selva

Hi Selva,
In brief, the Fuzzy Grouping Transformation can be used to group the similar rows in the source dataset and identify rows of data that are likely to be duplicate; while the Fuzzy Lookup Transformation can match records between the source table and reference
table that are similar, but not identical to, the lookup key.
Here are good examples about the two transformations:

Fuzzy Lookup cannot use existing index

Hi all,
we have upgraded to SQL Server 2008 R2 from SQL Server 2008 and since then our fuzzy matching process has failed when trying to re-use existing index with the error:
[Fuzzy Lookup] Progress: Warming caches - 0 percent complete
[Fuzzy Lookup [9824]] Warning: Catastrophic failure
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: component "Fuzzy Lookup" (9824) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0x8000FFFF.
Warming cache property is set to False though.
Has anyone experienced the same error?
When building a new index fuzzy matching runs without problems.
Thanks a lot.
Fran

Hi Fran,
The error may occur due to a memory issue such as the Fuzzy Lookup task consumes high memory buffers. Please try the following steps:
Run the package in 64-bit mode by setting the Run64BitRuntime property of the project to True.
Right click the Fuzzy Lookup task and click “Show Advanced Edior…”
Switch to the Component Properties tab, and set the following properties:
CopyReferenceTable: 0
DropExistingMatchIndex: 0
WarmCaches: False
Hope this helps.

Fuzzy Lookup Formula/Logic

Could someone from the dev team please share as much details as you're comfortable with regarding the
formula or logic used to calculate the similarity for a fuzzy lookup match?

Hi Andres,
Fuzzy Lookup matches input records that are "dirty" (because of misspellings, truncations, missing or inserted tokens, null fields, unexpected abbreviations, and other irregularities) with clean records in a reference table. Fuzzy Lookup can help
find data in large tables when your data has a corrupt or incomplete string key.
Fuzzy Lookup uses the Error-Tolerant Index (ETI) to find matching rows in the reference table. Each record in the reference table is broken up into words (also known as tokens), and the ETI keeps track of all the places in the reference table where a particular
token occurs.
For moe details about Fuzzy Lookup, please refer to the following documents:

Fuzzy Lookup Finished: Canceled?

Hey everyone,
I have a fuzzy lookup in Integration Services Packages that does not seem to run. I am pulling data from a table in sql server 2008 R2 and comparing results to data from another table in sql server (same database & instance) using a
fuzzy lookup for match similarities between the data sets. When my data flow task reaches my fuzzy lookup, a DOS box pops up for a second and then my packages finishes with a message of "Finished. Cancelled". The last message in my execution results
displays: "Information: Execute phase is beginning". Again, there are no excel files being processed or utilized in this package. I've tried running my packages both in 32 bit and 64 bit mode but no luck. I've also tried the advice listed
Here :
I'm at a loss. Not sure what I can do short of reinstalling Visual Studio. Any thoughts?
Migince
Info
Visual Studio 2008 3.5 SP1
Version Number: 9.0.30729.4462 QFE

You had a bitness error in the package and the very 1st time SQLDumper appeared which you disregarded
Now I suspect you need to stat over with a new project and all should work

Fuzzy Lookup Add-In for Excel - Unattended installation

Hi.
I would lige the Fuzzy Lookup Add-In for Excel to be installed silently, but it seems only to be possible for a Per-User installation with the parameter "setup.exe /passive"
I need the installation to be for All Users, but I can´t find any parameter that makes that possible.
/ Torsten

Hi,
Based on your description, your required could be done via logon scripts. Please see the below steps:
1. Open Notepad.
2. Copy and paste, or type, the following:
Const ENGINEERING_GROUP = "cn=engineering"
Const FINANCE_GROUP = "cn=finance"
Const HUMAN_RESOURCES_GROUP = "cn=human resources"
Set wshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "h:",
"\\FileServer\Users\" & wshNetwork.UserName
Set ADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
Set CurrentUser = GetObject("LDAP://" &
ADSysInfo.UserName)
strGroups = LCase(Join(CurrentUser.MemberOf))
If InStr(strGroups, ENGINEERING_GROUP) Then
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Engineering\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\EngLaser"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\Plotter"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\EngLaser"
ElseIf InStr(strGroups, FINANCE_GROUP) Then
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Finance\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\FinLaser"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\FinLaser"
ElseIf InStr(strGroups, HUMAN_RESOURCES_GROUP) Then
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Human Resources\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\HrLaser"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\HrLaser"
End If
3. On the File menu, click Save As.
4. In Save in, click the directory that corresponds to the domain controller's Netlogon shared folder (usually SystemRoot\SYSVOL\Sysvol\DomainName\Scripts where DomainName is the domain's fully qualified domain name).
5. In Save as type, click All Files.
6. In File name, type a file name, followed by .vbs, and then click Save. WSH uses the .vbs extension to identify files that contain VBScript commands.

Fuzzy lookup without Ms-SQL

Hi
Normally one needs for fuzzy lookup to load a (lookup) table in MS-SQL. Is it also possible to use / define such a table in Excel? I mean, is it possible to do fuzzy lookup without MS-SQL?
Thanks!
Gabi
gec

Hi gec,
Yes, we should write something in the Extended Properties to control the different excel files.
If the excel file version is Excel 2007 and later with .xlsx extension, we should use Microsoft ACE OLEDB 12.0 and set the property with “Excel 12.0”.
If the excel file version is Excel 2003 with .xls extension, we should use Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 or Microsoft ACE OLEDB 12.0 and set the property with “Excel 8.0”.
