    - How to write this condition? K108 wrote: Hi, I am trying to set up a conditional split. As usual, my books do not explain what I am trying to do :-) flat file source --> conditional split (if Column0 contains a certain string send to error file) In the Conditional Split Transformation Editor I have the following for "condition": FINDSTRING( "my search string", [Column0] ,1 ) TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio ------------------------------ Error at myPkg [Conditional Split [8259]]: The expression "FINDSTRING( "my search string[Column0] ,1 )" is not Boolean. The result type of the expression must be Boolean. Error at myPkg[Conditional Split [8259]]: The expression "FINDSTRING( "my search string[Column0] ,1 )" on "output "Case 1" (8351)" is not valid. Error at myPkg [Conditional Split [8259]]: Failed to set property "Expression" on "output "Case 1" (8351)". As you can see I want it to search Column0. Can someone please point out my error. Thanks That's because FINDSTRING does not return a BOOLEAN value (just as the error indicates), which is required in the conditional split. So, just do this: FINDSTRING("your search string",[Column0],1) > 0 If it finds a match, the above will evaluate to true, else it will be false.

    - How to create charts and graphs on reports? Sure, it's quite simple actually. The trick is to get the right SQL query. Personally, I wouldn't use report builder. Here are the steps: 1. Create a Report Server Project from Business Intelligence Studio 2. Add a new report to the project. This can be done by opening solution explorer (View -> solution explorer). Next, right click the name of your project then Add -> New Item. Click on Report then click OK. 3. On the Data tab, you want to create a new dataset and form your SQL statement there. This can be a stored procedure or textual. 4. From the toolbox (view -> toolbox), drag and drop a chart to the grid area of the layout tab. 5. Now, you can select the type of chart and play with whatever kind of formatting you want the chart or graph to have. 6. The important thing to do next is click view -> datasets. You want to drag and drop the field(s) to the Y or X-axis as appropriate. If you have any more questions, let us know but that should get you started.

    - Package wont run in a scheduled job Check the ProtectionLevel proeprty of your package. My guess is that it is set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey. Is that correct This means that all passwords and such are encrypted with the username of the person that built the package hence when you run it as another user (which you are attempting to do here), it doesn't work. Read in BOL about the ProtectionLevel property to get a full understanding and then reply here with any problems. -Jamie Tag: How do I restore sql server database primary data back .mdf

    - how can we do Row based table tracking There is no row number function in SQL Server 2000. You can generate rownumber using query. If you have clustered index on primarykey the data is stored in this sequence only. coz , the data is sorted and stored according to the clustered index keys. Actually speaking, when the data can be fetched in any order using order by rownumber does not make sense. But i have seen Oracle folks still talking about the significance of Rownumber Check this SELECT ( SELECT COUNT (*) FROM YourTableName AS Tab2 WHERE Tab2 . PK < = Tab1 . PK ) AS RowNum , * FROM YourTableName AS Tab1 Madhu Tag: How do I restore sql server database primary data back .mdf

    - Proactive caching notification error I have not seen this error before, but I have a couple of suggestions. Can you run the polling query in SSMS, just to make sure it works they way you expect it to And are you talking about a column with the timestamp data type or is this a datetime column. The reason I ask is that timestamp is a poor name for that particular data type and it is better thought of as a row version or row hash. They are a binary type and do not increase in a linear fashion over time so doing a Max() over a timestamp column would produce inconsistant results and I'm not even sure if the max() function can work with timestamps.

Madhu K Nair

I hope there were no secondary datafiles (.ndf) files... If you had only one mdf and Ldf file then use dbattach method

Refer sp_attach_db in BOL and also these links
