Fuzzy Lookup/product level is insufficient

I installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on my XP sp2 workstation, developed an SSIS package, which has run for a week on my workstation.

I installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on a Win2003 sp1 server, created the dtsx and install manifest on my workstation, and installed it on the server.

If I run the package on my workstation, pointed to the server database it runs fine.

If I run the dtsx on the server, it fails with the error:

The product level is insufficient for component "Fuzzy Lookup on Name" (83)

Yes, I have SSIS installed on both machines, I have verified that I have the SSIS service on the server.

Any Ideas?

Thanks!

Bob,
Fuzzy Lookup/Fuzzy Grouping components are part of the Advanced Transformations that are only available in the Enterprise Edition of SQL.
Per MS all transformations/features are available in the BIDS when you are developing. So you really need to becareful about what features you use in your packages.

Function to Convert Amount to Words for Check Printing

I am thinking someone out there must have already developed this....

I am using Report Services to generate checks and need to convert the $ amount into words on the "Pay To" line.

I searched Google and found a couple of VB/ASP routines that do this, but I would need to do it via a SQL Proc since the reporter does not provide the capability to reference and/or call custom VB functions from within.

Does anyone have / know of SQL function that may be publicly available or are willing to share that does this or perhaps can suggest a better way to handle?

Thanks.

If you use SQL Server Reporting Services, then you could add VB Code functions and then use it in your Expressions.

Also you could create .NET Stored procedures/user defined functions and use it in you Transact-SQL code.

It is absolutely amazing. Just by typing in 'sql function amount to words' into the Google? search bar, I got back dozens of hits, these look like good possibilities.

Google? is your friend...|||

Thanks. I figured out that even though the project explorer didn't list class as a new type of item which could be added, I could add a class to the reports project via the menu.

Appreciate your help,

Annette

Funny how I did exactly the same Google search and didn't get the same results (or perhaps they were not listed on the first few pages I checked (there were 10 pages of results).

Google is definitely our friend and so are people like yourself who take the time to answer these posts.


Thank you,

Full-Text Setup and Search

Hi,

I have a database developed using SQL Server Management Studio Express with Full-Text searching. I can go into the Object Explorer and right click on my database and choose Properties, select File and the 'Use-full-ext indexing' is checked.

I'm not sure how I create an index for a table, can someone help? I want to create an index for table 'tblLogNotes' and have the following columns:

note_id = (PK, int, not null)
note = (varchar(3000), not null)
log_id = (FK, int, not null)
operatorid = (int, not null)
note_created = (datetime, not null)

I know I did something but not sure what I did, but on one of my tables, when I right click on table and choose 'log_note', I can see that Full-text Specification = yes, (is full-text indexed = yes), full-text type column = <none> and language = English (United States).

Table 'tblLog' has the following columns:
log_id - (PK, int - not null)
log_note (varchar(3000), not null)
tag_number(varchar(50), not null)

However, when I try the following query, I get nothing:

SELECT *
FROM tblLog
WHERE CONTAINS(Log_note, '"pump*"')

I've also tried: 'pump'

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Hi Ed,

You need to create a Full Text Catalog and a Full Text Index before you can query against them. See...

CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG

CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX

and

The Full Text Overview topic in Books Online.

SSMSE does not enable the Full Text commands for technical reasons, but you can use the Template Explorer to get the basic SQL statements and then just fill in the blanks for your database.

FULLTEXT SEARCH any drawbacks?

I need to know are there any disadvantages of using Full Text Search with MS SQL 2000. I'm planning to host my website to be developed in asp.net with shared hosting company. Taking this into consideration can there be any problems regarding Full Text Search.

Cheers
Luckyhi there,

there are none i suppose.. all i know is that full text search speeds up data retrieval process.. take a look at the link attached.. take care..

But I read it somewhere that it puts a lot of extra load on the server. Thats why most of the hosting companies do not provide this service.

Thanks again
