Setting Properties Of A SSIS DTSX Package At Runtime From VB?
Sep 14, 2009
i am writing a VB front end (VS 2008 .NET 3.5) to a data loading program that involves moving the contents of CSV flat files into SQL Server 2005 staging tables. I have had some experience with DTS in SQL 2000 so I decided to use SSIS packages to load the CSV data. Creating the packages in BIDS worked fine for the development environment where I hard-coded the Connections and file paths. The problem arises when I will release this program to 30 different sites that do not have SQL Server admins to help changing the configuration.
I have a SQL table in which I will put all the necessary path information and I can pull that into the VB program on startup. I need to see an example of how I can set the properties from VB once the package is instantiated and opened.Here is an example of where I plan to set those properties and run the packages.
Private Function RunPackages() As Boolean
Try
Dim oApp As New Application
Dim oPackage As New Package
[code]....
Even though I am using a configuration file in the example, I am finding it difficult to edit the configuration files for each site. I see that there are methods and properties exposed for the oPackage instance. However, I can't find a good reference for the Class model to use as a guideline. All the examples expect packages to be run and configured with SQL Server and BIDS. direct manipulation of package properties in VB or C#?I am now considering using the old standby SQL Bulk Insert. It almost appears as if the Data Tasks are just wrappers for the Bulk Insert operation. Furthermore we have several sites still using SQL Server 2000. With the economy the way it is, most of those sites do not want to spend ANY extra money upgrading to SQL 2005 or 2008.
However, having a good resource to learn how to manipulate SSIS packages from the CLR would be very helpful. I have heard that in SQL 2008 things have changed even more. It is maddeneing that once I learn a "new" Microsoft technology it seems to be discarded by MS in their next release in favor of a "better" alternative.

I created a simple VB application in Visual Studio 2010.My computer, which I am using to create the program, is Windows 7 Pro, and SQL Server 2008 is running on a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, which I have full access to.
I want to click a button and have an SSIS package execute.I looked around on the Internet and found examples, but they do not seem to work for me.I try to add a reference, Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll, as a few sites advise, but it is not listed when I go to PROJECT>ADD REFERENCE.
I also type:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime but all I get is a squiggly green line, which when hovered over states "Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'Microsoft.SqlServer .Dts.Runtime' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found." Below is some code I copied from one of the websites and pasted in my button click event (the path is correct), but a get blue squiggly lines under "Package" and "DTSExecResult":
Dim pkgLocation
As String
Dim pkg As
New Package[code]....
What can I do to make the SSIS package run when I click the button on the Windows application a created?

My DBA has several SSIS packages that he would like the functionality of providing the end user with a way to input values for variables in the package. What would be the best solution for creating an application that would take the user input and pass the data through to the SSIS package variables?
I can get this work locally using this code
Dim packageName As String
Dim myPackage As Package
Dim integrationServices As New Application
[code]....
Problem is this requires that the user have SSIS installed locally.

I have created an SSISpackage in my asp.net project.To call the ssis package, i have written the following code.
dim app as new Application()
dim package as Package=app.LoadPackage("C:ProjectsMyPackage.dtsx")
dim result as DTSExeResult=package.Execute()
Response.Write(result.Tostring())
but it shows some errors.i think some namespaces are missing.What all namespaces have to be imported?

I have successfully run an ssis package and inserted data from one table in the first database to another table in the second database. But all the rows are inserted in this case. I have placed an oledb source control, a character map control and an oledb destination control. No query is written in this. I specified only the source table and the destination table in the 2 databases. But I need to transfer only some column values in one table to another, not the entire table data.

I am currently working on an SSIS package that we are migrating from SSIS 2005 to SSIS 2008. The issue is that the developers of the current version used the fact that in SSIS 2005 the accessor of a NULL column returns 0, whereas SSIS 2008 throws an exception. Also, they extensively use expressions such as this one:
IIf(Row.X_IsNull, System.DBNull.Value, Row.X)
The problem is that in SSIS 2008, regardless of whether the condition is set to true, the program still tries to read Row.X and throws an exception. The package is big and it would take a very long time to convert all of these IIfs to manual Ifs with temporary variables.

I am using VB.NET 2002 and we have set up a test environment running SQL Server 2005. I am trying to add a reference to Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS.dll which is required to run a DTS/SSIS package from VB.NET. However the dll does not show in my add reference listing so when I select BROWSE and select the actual DLL I get a rather long error message telling me that only 'dll' and COM components can be referenced.
The exact message is: A reference to 'C:Programs FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SDKAssembliesMicrosoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS.dll' could not be added. This is not a valid assembly or COM component. Only assemblies with extension 'dll' and COM components can be referenced.make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.

I have a .chm file linked to my app that is presently being called from it's actual location.HelpProvider1.HelpNamespace = C:Documents and SettingsmgfranzMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsApp NameCleanUp.chm
But when I package the app the directory is going to change to C:Program FilesApp Name by default. The problem arises if the user decides to create an alternate directory. Is there a way to set a $Path at setup runtime so that when the .chm file is called it knows to look in the Home installation directory? Here is the code I use to call the .chm; Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click

Example: like I want to standard the datagridviews' property, each of the datagridviews' property is same with each other. but each time I create the new datagridview. I have to manually set the datagridview 1 by 1.

I've played around with this and have figured most of it on how to set the properties of most controls in the designer. I have 2 check boxes I need to set the values on but do not know how. 2 fields one for each in the db with a char(1) value, can be Y or N. If it a Y in the db how would I set it as checked on the form?
'cboPosition
Me.cboPosition.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("SelectedValue", Me.FmfieldmanmasterBindingSource1, "position_name", True))
Me.cboPosition.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", Me.FmfieldmanmasterBindingSource1, "position_name", True))

I'm stuck trying to figure this one out. I am trying to set a GridViews Column properties by using reflection and the Extended properties off a DataTable.the Code looks something like this
Dim colproperty As PropertyInfo = gv.Columns(col.Ordinal).GetType.GetProperty(key)
Where key = "ItemStyle"
So I get the ItemStyle Property by I'm unsure how to set the next varibel which would be BackColor:Red in the collection i have that key access. This is all text.in the XML the extendedproperty is set like this
msprop:ItemStyle="BackColor:Red"
I can easily set all of the attribues for a gridview using something simular to this but of course gridview columns do not have attributes only properties.
Gridview attribute setting code
Dim nvCollection As PropertyCollection = table.ExtendedProperties
For Each key As String In nvCollection.Keys()
Dim colproperty As PropertyInfo = labelOut.GetType().GetProperty(key)

is there any trick (because I can't think of anything else ! ) to massively set all of the properties , of a user defined class , to their null values ? You see , I have a class called Apartment and it has a lot of properties (it only has properties , no methods or events , if that's important) and those properties are either strings , doubles or integers . I want each time I create a new instance of that class (a new apartment , that is) to automatically set those properties to their null values . That is all of the strings to be equal to "" and all of the numbers to be equal to 0 . Back in VB6 I could rely on VB6 to do this automatically , but now in VB .NET , whenever I create a new instance of a class , all the properties start with the value = Nothing . I know I can define every property in the class module like that : Public MyVariable As String = "" but I'd like to keep them as they are and set their null values directly whenever a new object of that class is created .

Most of the apps I write have a base / home form and a few other forms (three of four typically) which pop up in response to controls clicked by the user. I'd like to be able to set some properties to be the same for all the forms in an app; particularly properties like BackColor and FormBorderStyle. Yes, I can manually set the individual properties for each form in the VB IDE, but I'd prefer to be able to have one line of code in the base / home form for each property along with one line for each dependent form which says something to the effect of "use the same property value as the base / home form has". Overall, my objective would be to have one single line of code in the app which, when changed, would apply the changed property to all the forms. For example, a single line which I can change to take the BackColor from Apple to Orange for all the forms ...

In VB6 I would simply retrieve the user font setting from the .ini file, load into variables and then apply to the appropriate control.
text1.fontbold = userfontbold
text1.fontitalic = userfontitalic
text1.fontunderline = userfontunderline
etc.
I'm struggling to understand how to do this vb.net The following code works, but sets all three at one time
Text1.Font = New Font("Courier", 10, FontStyle.Bold Or FontStyle.Italic Or FontStyle.Underline)Since the user can have many different combinations of settings, I would like to be able to add just one of these properties at a time, but can't seem to figure out how to do it.
