OLE DB Destination Editor (Connection Manager Page)

Use the Connection Manager page of the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box to select the OLE DB connection for the destination. This page also lets you select a table or view from the database.

Note

If the data source is Microsoft Office Excel 2007, the data source requires a different connection manager than earlier versions of Excel. For more information, see How to: Connect to an Excel Workbook.

Note

The CommandTimeout property of the OLE DB destination is not available in the OLE DB Destination Editor, but can be set by using the Advanced Editor. In addition, certain fast load options are available only in the Advanced Editor. For more information on these properties, see the OLE DB Destination section of Destination Custom Properties.

To learn more about the OLE DB destination, see OLE DB Destination.

Static Options

  • OLE DB connection manager
    Select an existing connection manager from the list, or create a new connection by clicking New.

  • New
    Create a new connection manager by using the Configure OLE DB Connection Manager dialog box.

  • Data access mode
    Specify the method for loading data into the destination. Loading double-byte character set (DBCS) data requires use of one of the fast load options. For more information about the fast load data access modes, which are optimized for bulk inserts, see OLE DB Destination.

    Option

    Description

    Table or view

    Load data into a table or view in the OLE DB destination.

    Table or view - fast load

    Load data into a table or view in the OLE DB destination and use the fast load option. For more information about the fast load data access modes, which are optimized for bulk inserts, see OLE DB Destination.

    Table name or view name variable

    Specify the table or view name in a variable.

    Table name or view name variable - fast load

    Specify the table or view name in a variable, and use the fast load option to load the data. For more information about the fast load data access modes, which are optimized for bulk inserts, see OLE DB Destination.

    SQL command

    Load data into the OLE DB destination by using a SQL query.

  • Preview
    Preview results by using the Preview Query Results dialog box. Preview can display up to 200 rows.

Data Access Mode Dynamic Options

Each of the settings for Data access mode displays a dynamic set of options specific to that setting. The following sections describe each of the dynamic options available for each Data access mode setting.

Data access mode = Table or view

  • Name of the table or the view
    Select the name of the table or view from a list of those available in the data source.

  • New
    Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

    Note

    When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared. To run an Integration Services component with the FILESTREAM attribute, first implement FILESTREAM storage on the destination database. Then, add the FILESTREAM attribute to the CREATE TABLE statement in the Create Table dialog box. For more information, see Designing and Implementing FILESTREAM Storage.

Data access mode = Table or view – fast load

  • Name of the table or view
    Select a table or view from the database by using this list, or create a new table by clicking New.

  • New
    Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

    Note

    When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared. To run an Integration Services component with the FILESTREAM attribute, first implement FILESTREAM storage on the destination database. Then, add the FILESTREAM attribute to the CREATE TABLE statement in the Create Table dialog box. For more information, see Designing and Implementing FILESTREAM Storage.

  • Keep identity
    Specify whether to copy identity values when data is loaded. This property is available only with the fast load option. The default value of this property is false.

  • Keep nulls
    Specify whether to copy null values when data is loaded. This property is available only with the fast load option. The default value of this property is false.

  • Table lock
    Specify whether the table is locked during the load. The default value of this property is true.

  • Check constraints
    Specify whether the destination checks constraints when it loads data. The default value of this property is true.

  • Rows per batch
    Specify the number of rows in a batch. The default value of this property is –1, which indicates that no value has been assigned.

    Note

    Clear the text box in the OLE DB Destination Editor to indicate that you do not want to assign a custom value for this property.

  • Maximum insert commit size
    Specify the batch size that the OLE DB destination tries to commit during fast load operations. The default value of 2147483647 indicates that all data is committed in a single batch after all rows have been processed.

    Note

    A value of 0 might cause the running package to stop responding if the OLE DB destination and another data flow component are updating the same source table. To prevent the package from stopping, set the Maximum insert commit size option to 2147483647.

    If you provide a value for this property, the destination commits rows in batches that are the smaller of (a) the Maximum insert commit size, or (b) the remaining rows in the buffer that is currently being processed.

    Note

    Any constraint failure at the destination causes the entire batch of rows defined by Maximum insert commit size to fail.

Data access mode = Table name or view name variable

  • Variable name
    Select the variable that contains the name of the table or view.

Data Access Mode = Table name or view name variable – fast load)

  • Variable name
    Select the variable that contains the name of the table or view.

  • New
    Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

    Note

    When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared.

    Clear the text box in the OLE DB Destination Editor to indicate that you do not want to assign a custom value for this property.

  • Maximum insert commit size
    Specify the batch size that the OLE DB destination tries to commit during fast load operations. The default value of 2147483647 indicates that all data is committed in a single batch after all rows have been processed.

    Note

    A value of 0 might cause the running package to stop responding if the OLE DB destination and another data flow component are updating the same source table. To prevent the package from stopping, set the Maximum insert commit size option to 2147483647.

Data access mode = SQL command

  • SQL command text
    Enter the text of a SQL query, build the query by clicking Build Query, or locate the file that contains the query text by clicking Browse.

    Note

    The OLE DB destination does not support parameters. If you need to execute a parameterized INSERT statement, consider the OLE DB Command transformation. For more information, see OLE DB Command Transformation.

  • Build query
    Use the Query Builder dialog box to construct the SQL query visually.

  • Browse
    Use the Open dialog box to locate the file that contains the text of the SQL query.

  • Parse query
    Verify the syntax of the query text.
