Asynchronus Transformation Component

Hi all,

I am missing something simple. I have added a new Transformation Script, put in my code to read the input rows, defined my outputs. I have tried to change the SynchonousInputId to 0, but I only get the option of None or input "Input 0" (91). What have I missed?

Set the SynchonousInputId to None.

The SynchonousInputId of "None" is synonymous with zero (0). The script transformation editor dropdown for the SynchonousInputId changed between service packs between saying "0" in the earlier case, to "None" in subsequent service packs. Both 0 and "None" for the SynchonousInputId property mean, "this is a async script transform".

assign an output of derive column to variable

I have a derive column( sequence) transformation in data flow , i am trying to assign this column to a variable , so that i can use it in the SQLtask control flow... how can i do this? can you show me some examples?

Why are you trying to assign a value from a derived column to a variable? The derived column works for every row passing through it. When passing a variable value back to the control flow, it would only contain the last value in the data flow.

With that said, you can use a script component's PostExecute sub to assign data to a variable.|||

Actually the derived column is in For each loop ( row by row process)...

"script component's PostExecute sub to assign data to a variable"

--> is there a code example that you can show me ?

Thank you for your help

No it isn't. You might have a data flow in the foreach loop.

The foreach loop can assign variables for each iteration. Why doesn't that work for you?|||

you are correct I meant I have a data flow which has the derive column transformation in the foreach loop..

I am tying to tryting to pass the result of derive column ( @.[User::Assessment_Dt] > assessment_dt ? 1 : 0 ) to a variable so that i can use it in SQLTASK ..

I understand i need to use a script task to assign the output of derive column in data flow to a variable ..but i don't know how? is there any examples that i can see?

What is the source in the data flow?

I don't understand what you are trying to achieve, and I'd really like to help you architect this better.|||

The source of the foreach loop is

Select columns from S_enrollment_assessment

and i am not quite sure how to create the data source for the data flow in the for each loop since it it assign to row by row ?

So you're populating a data set with an execute SQL task and then using a foreach loop against that dataset?|||

yes.. and i assigned each columns to variables ( 71 of them) and follow the complex loding process..

for example,

FINDSTRING("1,2,3,4",@.TypeofAssessment,1) > 0 in precedence editor - expression

then go the SQLTASK1 otherwise go to SQLTASK2

and there are so many different logics that i need to follow...

so how to use 71 variables as the source of data flow in for each loop?

You don't. You can write a SQL command in a variable expression that maps other variables (from your foreach loop) and then use the SQL variable as your OLE DB Source.

For instance:
@.TypeofAssessment - Source: Foreach loop
@.SQLCommand - Source: Expression: "select * from table where assessment = " + @.TypeofAssessment

OLE DB Source - Set to use sql command from variable - choose @.SQLCommand.|||yes. that is what i was trying to do...but since there are 71 columns that i am passing as variables,it's a kind of time consuming job.. thank you for all your help.. i really appreciate it..
