  • RE: user with non sys admin to the box can not connect toSSIS

    This article should help you out.  There are additional permissions on the Server OS that you have to grant in order for non-sysadmin users to launch SSIS.

  • RE: Training for DBA job?

    For the most current stuff you need to bag the job, you should look carefully at the job description.  Depending on the company, DBA duties can be partitioned out (Production/Maintenance...

    Well said!  And thank you for the perspective.  I know I'm not going to get everything I want, but at least I can warn them.  Then, if they don't listen...

  • RE: How do I query an XML Feed?

    I think Microsoft stuck the XML stuff in SQL 2k5 because so many people were using it, not because they wanted to.  Yes, there's a lot of nifty stuff, but...

    You should be able to use a Script task in an SSIS package to move the XML file over to your server from the website.

  • RE: How do I query an XML Feed?

    Am I reading your code right?  You actually had to join the document to itself to get it in SQL Server properly?

    Steve,

    You da Bomb! @=)

    Darren, do a PatIndex search on the char(13) that Steve recommends and that will get you started.  I recommending creating your multiple columns in a Temp table...
