Textfiles - Reading Data From Flat File

Jan 27, 2011

i have flat files in some direcotry. each flat file contains around 60,000 rows of data. earlier we were using excel sheets to upload data. but now the challenge is it is taking more time to upload data into DB tables. which is the best way to upload such a huge data into db tables. can we use SSIS for uploading data. if so, how can we achieve that.

C# - What's More Efficient SQL Or Flat File Access

Jul 22, 2010

I am looking at upgrading a realtime program ASP.NET C#, that takes very frequently updated data and moves it from one database to another.

Currently using a middle man app, that pulls from one and inserts into another using SqlBulkCopy.

Is it better to have the source db server write a flat file and the middle man collect from that flat file?

Keep Text Flat File Open Between Form Submits?

Mar 28, 2011

I'm using a log file to document info while getting and processing info from a form

1. if not post back, open the log file, build page, send form. 2. get submit back from form, possible post back if errors, possible writes to log file, if no errors definitely writes to log file, and send confirm page. 3. postback from confirm page can either be going back to form or finalizing, and send acknowledge page, then done.

so I need to keep the logfile object between direct postbacks to the form, or posting back to orignal form page after gettting a postback from a confirm page.

this type of file setup works fine, it creates a single log file per day:

[Code]....

then successive writes are like this:

[Code]....

when the form submit comes back from the original send/submit, lf from above is 'nothing'

saw the post about 9 ways to maintain state, not sure at all which would be most appropriate to keep the lf object accessible between possible postbacks and submits to the form.

DataSource Controls :: Set Up A Dynamic Flat File Connection?

Apr 14, 2010

I am working on an SSIS package that needs to read a flat file and load the data into a SQL table. The problem is, the flat file name changes because it incorporates a date similar to this:

fileName_2010-04-12.txt

I found this site that shows how to set up a dynamic flat file connection:

[URL]

I understand the principle, but what I'm struggling with is using it in my data flow task. I need to configure the column mappings. In the PROPERTIES of the flat file connection, under expressions, I set up a ConnectionString with the following:

@[User::DataLoadDir] + @[User::priceFileName]

where [User::DataLoadDir] is the path where the file resides and [User::priceFileName] is a variable that should have the name of the specific file I want to read.

However, when I try to set the column mappings in the flat file connection, it's pulling the column headings for a different file in the same directory.

Reading A File Into Memory And Then Reading It One Line At A Time?

I know this is probably a pretty easy thing to do and it is if I can upload the file and store it onto the hard drive of the server. What I need to do is read the text file into memory and then parse through it one line at a time. Anyone have any code that demonstrates that?

Reading - Parsing And Posting Data From A .csv File Into A SQL Database

Jul 13, 2010

I have the following data that basically I only need a few bits of information from:

Resource:X - Y;Z - Ã…;Type:(all) From Date:
07/12/2010 - To Date 07/12/2010 Sort
by:Time Include Referring
source/physician:No Footer:Default

Y","ZAssociates","Monday, July 12,
2010","Time","Patient Name","Patient

","Z, X","Y","7/12/2010
12:00:00AM","Time","Patient
Name","Patient ID","Appt.
Type","Phone","Type","DOB "," 7:30
[snip]

The only things I need from this are:

Patients Name
Drs Name
Patients Phone Number
Appt Time
Appt Date

and the rest of the information I can discard. A customer uploads this as a .csv file (even though it really isn't as you can see) and I'd like to parse the needed information and post that to my SQL database and discard the rest. I think I can do this with a dataset but I've never built that before. The fields from the customer will always be the same and the fields I will need will always be the same. Also, the date time has to be in the format of yyyy/mm/dd:hhmm and the phone number always has to have 512 as a prefix. Here is the code I currently have for my site:

Mar 4, 2010

1) I need to make reading CSV file from the fileupload and then retrieve the data.

2) I need to load CSV and the 3 columns rise two functions.

Load CSV data and then stored in a database, but I need to save storage space vary according to 3 column.

WCF / ASMX :: Add Service Reference Reading Svc File But Not Reading Service?

but when I tried to add the service reference to the silverlight app, the Add Service Reference window would show me that there was a service file, but the node wouldn't expand to show the rest of the files that contain the services and what not. I got this error instead:

"An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately."

"Parser Error Message:There is no service behavior named 'AdventureWorks_WebServer.Service1Behavior'."

"Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://localhost:55579/Service1.svc'.

The server did not provide a meaningful reply; this might be caused by a contract mismatch, a premature session shutdown or an internal server error.

I tried Jet.OLEDB to read the file and put it into a datatable and then used a stringBuilder and streamwriter to get an output file in .txt format. However. This does not me since I´, reading the txt file from start to end and my output will be the same. It does not seem like I can have a custom sql statement when reading the file.
