Michael,

It just occurred to me... Doesn't using a Merge Join mean you're pulling all columns of the table into SSIS prior to the task anyway?

I think that's why I originally...

WHOOHOO!

That's the ticket, Matt! (Head cold or not, you is GENIUS). And I didn't even have to use the namespace declaration to make it work. The syntax...

I'm still not getting this to work. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to select from an XML column in a table and shred it to a relational...

Subquery then.

MERGE JOIN is something I'll look into. The one time I played with it, I couldn't quite figure it out. I can't remember exactly what my problem was...

When you say your IDs aren't sequentially, what exactly do you mean? Could you give us a RL example of several IDs so we can see?

You could use a...

Sebastian,

Enable logging on the package to see where your problem might be. Also, consider running Profiler while running the package.

Lastly, have you tuned your initial queries? It might speed...

Open up Integration Services in SSMS to Server A. Right click package in question. Click "RUN PACKAGE" and do NOT panic... @=)

Window will pop up. Pick all...

Hmm. I was going to recommend using the Row_Number() function to build your original query, then realized your post sounds like you're not pulling your source records from SQL...

Peter,

I'm trying to avoid setting a variable if I can. I want to read directly from the table that I've got set up. I'm going to have a...

Darnit. Still coming up with NULL as my result. The XML column has data like below (though there are more elements than I've listed):

&ltrow xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"&gt
