ADO NET Destination Editor (Connection Manager Page)

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

To learn more about the ADO NET destination, see ADO NET Destination.

To open the Connection Manager page

  1. In Business Intelligence Development Studio, open the Integration Services package that has the ADO NET destination.

  2. On the Data Flow tab, double-click the ADO NET destination.

  3. In the ADO NET Destination Editor, click Connection Manager.

Static Options

  • 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 ADO.NET Connection Manager dialog box.

  • Use a table or view
    Select an existing table or view from the list, or create a new table by clicking New..

  • New
    Create a new table or view 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.

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

Note

If a SQL Server or Sybase source table includes an identity column, you must use Execute SQL tasks to run a SET IDENTITY_INSERT statement before and after the ADO NET destination. The identity column property specifies an incremental value for the column. The SET IDENTITY_INSERT statement enables explicit values to be inserted into the identity column. To run the CREATE TABLE and SET IDENTITY statements on the same database connection, set the RetainSameConnection property of the ADO.NET connection manager to True. Also, use the same ADO.NET connection manager for the Execute SQL tasks and the ADO NET destination.

For more information, see SET IDENTITY_INSERT (Transact-SQL) and IDENTITY (Property) (Transact-SQL).
