How to create a package without BIDS in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

I have inherited some SSIS packages that I found I can edit by opening the .dtsx file in my local copy of Microsoft SQL Server management studio.  I then get Control Flow tab, Data Flow tab etc.  I can add or change or delete any of the control
or data flows.  I have found that if I use the same path to the local file where the packages are stored that exists on the server, I can edit the dtsx file on my local machine and copy the dtsx file to the server into the same directory structure and
sucessfully execute the package on the SQL 2008 server.
I have VS 2010 installed.  I have read that I have to install VS 2008 to use BIDS from within VS.  However, this has not worked out very well.  Since I can basically create a new package by deleteing all of the control and data flows from
an existing package, I am in pretty good shape.  However, I would just like to know if there is a way to create a new dtsx file from within Microsoft SQL Server management studio.  Also one thing I have not been able to change is the event handler
name or package exploration name....it is just an annoyance since it does not cause any problems, just would like to be able to rename it.   

Hi Fred,
We cannot develop SSIS package in SQL Server Management Studio. If we use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, we can save it as a package but the package is rather simple.
We use Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) or SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) to develop SSIS packages. To develop SSIS 2008 packages, we must use BIDS installed by SQL Server 2008, and the BIDS 2008 can only be integrated with Visual Studio 2008.
To develop SSIS 2012 packages, we use the SSDT installed by SQL Server 2012 which uses Visual Studio 2010 shell and can only be integrated with Visual Studio 2010.
Different versions of SSIS package have different package formats/schemas. If you can create SSIS packages project in you Visual Studio 2010, it means that you have installed SSDT already, and the packages you design are SSIS 2012 packages. If you open and
eidt SSIS 2008 packages in you Visual Studio 2010, the packages will be upgraded to SSIS 2012 package format. SSIS 2012 packages cannot be downgraded to SSIS 2008 packages or deployed to SSIS 2008 server.

  • Problem to create "New Database Diagram" in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio for SQL Server 2012 SQL Express

    Hi,
    I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express edition (name of installation media: en_sql_server_2012_express_edition_with_advanced_services_x64.exe) from MSDN and I have installed the application on my pc with Windows 7 Exterprise.
    Everything is working fine except when I am trying to create "New Database Diagram", where I recieve following error message:
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
    Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop)
    BUTTONS:
    OK
    I have tried two times to reinstall SQL Server 2012 Express and I have installed Cumulative Update #3 for SQL Server 2012 and restarted the machine, but I have still the same problem with the same error message.
    Installed the following fixes:
    1) 2012_RTM_DAC_CU3_2723749_11_0_2332_x64
    2) SQLServer2012_RTM_CU3_2723749_11_0_2332_x64
    These files was installed successful.
    How can I solve the problem?

    Hi Jan,
    Have you installed Visual Studio in your machine?
    The problem seems to be related to installing and uninstalling the VS 2011 RC0 program.
    The workaround involves copying the files from another PC with SQL 2008 or 2012 from one machine to another. Just replace this folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\MSDesigners8
    See also the following for further details:

  • Create Sequence command doesn't work on my MSSMS-Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 11.0.2100.60

    Hi!
     For some reason Create Sequence command doens't work on my Management Studtio version mentioned above.
     Please advise, thanks

    What counts is not the SQL Server Management Studio level, but the release level of the SQL Server you are connected to and the the compatibility of the database you are connected to.  Run
    Select name, ServerProperty('ProductVersion') As ProductVersion, compatibility_level
    From master.sys.databases
    Where database_id = DB_ID()
    Product Version should show as 11.<something> or higher.  compatability_level should show as 110 or higher.  If either of those values are lower, then that is your problem.

  • BIDS for SQL Server Management Studio

    I want to use BIDS and SSI.  Can someone assist me with this?  I have Sql Server Management Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 -- both installed via web download.

    Hi Michael,
    To create a package in Business Intelligence Development Studio:
    In Business Intelligence Development Studio, open the Integration Services project in which you want to create a package.
    In Solution Explorer, right-click the SSIS Packages folder, and then click New SSIS Package.
    Optionally, add control flow, data flow tasks, and event handlers to the package.
    On the File menu, click Save Selected Items to save the new package.

  • How to register VSPackage into SQL Server Management Studio?

    Hi All,
    I am a newer to VSPackage, I want to create a VSPackage for SQL Server Management Studio(SSMS), now I can create a VSPackage project and debug it in Visual Studio but don't know how to debug it in SQL Server Management Studio and how to deploy VSPackage to
    SSMS by MSI? Thanks

    By the way I find a extension.vsixmanifest file and some .pkgdef files under
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio\Extensions\  folder, and they are very similar with VSPackage files. Do know this is useful or not.
    Hi Vic Zhang,
    After some research, There are some notes. SQL Server Management Studio is built upon the Visual Studio Isolated Shell, which inherently supports extensibility (add-ins/plug-ins). It is possible to tap into the Visual Studio extensibility services to surface
    custom capabilities within SQL Server Management Studio; however, we do not discourage this, keep in mind that such extensibility is not supported, so there may be issues with backward/forward compatibility. Microsoft does not publish documentation for extending
    SQL Server Management Studio.
    If you want to debug VSPackeage about SSMS, I recommend you debug in Visual Studio and not in SSMS, open the project and attach to the process of SSMS.exe, then debug it.
    About the issue of finding the “RootKey”, a .pkgdef file is way to encapsulate application configuration information in an easily editable, distributable, and deployable form. And it registers the Extension Manager (which is written as a VS Package). If
    you install SQL Server 2012, the .pkgdef of SSMS is located in the following path, you can check the “RootKey” in this .pkgdef file.
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio
    There is detail about a PkgDef, you can review the following article.

  • How to find a record then edit using sql server management studio

    Hello,
    A very basic question:
    I want to find a record stored in MS SQL Server 2008 express database table then edit the record.
    I tried to do it using SQL Server 2008 management studio express because I have been using MS Access database all the time. I have right clicked the table in management studio, clicked the "Edit top 200 records" menu item then when records were
    displayed on the result pane, I pressed Ctrl + F key to find a student named Simon for example. Well, nothing happened. I couldn't see any dialog boxes for putting in the search criteria.
    I guess I cannot simply use Ctrl+F in SQL Server management studio to find / edit a record.
    Can someone please teach me how to find a record specifying a search criteria then edit the record in SQL server management studio?

    Hi ZKM128,
    I have not seen Ctrl+F to be used to look for desired rows in Sql server.
    On the result pane after you selected "Edit top 200 records", just right click , select
    PANE, SQL, you will get the T-Sql query t,here you need to mention the exact criteria which you are looking for, and then you will get the desired rows and then you can edit.
    Thanks

    I am using Labview 8.6 to access a database created in MS SQL Server Mgmt Studio, using LabSQL ADO utilities. I don't have LV's add-on DB connectivity toolkit, but just the ADO utilities. Can i do it? If yes, how? I have no experience whatsoever in connecting and accessing data from a DB. An example would help.

    Nonsense.
    With LabSQL, you should first find an on-line SQL tutorial and refer to the Microsoft help files. I would recomend creating a UDL file. This is the connection string you use for the ADO Connection Open function. You might want to to get a little help from the db administrator. You'll certainly need help in getting a login and password.

    You do know that real SQL programmers hate the proprietary nightmare of tabled valued functions?  This is how you procedural programmers avoid learning set-oriented declarative and functional programming. 
    Your mindset wants to write to a scratch tape or disk file (aka “tabled valued function result table”) just like you did BASIC, FORTRAN or COBOL. QL programmers do not have to materialize their data. We can use VIEW or a drive table as well as a base table.

    So stop writing those “tabular based functions”, change your mindset and start learning SQL and do it right.

  • How to create a lookup in Crystal Reports or SQL Server

    I need to create an Operating Statement report.  The problem is that I need to create a lookup or something to satify a requirement that even if there is no data in the system it will still bring back a description.
    Example:  01 = Income, 02 = Expense, 03 = Labor.. ect(there are 31 of these)
    If there is no data for 03 I still need Labor to print.
    In my SQL I did a CASE statment that said when
    Account = '3001' THEN 01, Account = '3002' THEN 02, Account = '3003' THEN 03 ECT
    Then I created a formula a in Crystal that reads the case Statement to assign descriptions 01 = Income, 02 = Expense, 03 = Labor.
    The problem is when there is no data for Account 3003 then the formula does not know to still bring back 03 as Labor.
    Can I create a lookup to assign the description, I dont care about the values they can come back as zero.
    Is there a formula or can I create a sql statement to pull back a derived table anything but to create a physical table?
    Any help would be great.
