DTS and ActiveX VB Script
Hi Everyone -
I am having a little problem and I think I can thank Microsoft for it. I am trying to create a DTS package that runs a select statement that is a count of rounds and based on the count I want to run one set of code or another set of code.
How would you go about this?
What I have tried is a SQL statement with a global variable and then I am trying to reference the global variable in an activex script task - and the task is failing -
Task code is:
' Visual Basic ActiveX Script
Function Main()
dim sql
set sql = DTSGlobalVariables("CountofRec").Value
If sql > 700 Then <--I get a type mismatch on this line
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
Else
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Failure
End If
End Function
What is wrong with this? Please help! As I would so grateful for it:)
Lost
Gina

Try this...
Code:
' Visual Basic ActiveX Script
Function Main()
dim sql
sql = DTSGlobalVariables("CountofRec").Value
MsgBox sql
'If sql > 700 Then <--I get a type mismatch on this line
'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
'Else
'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Failure
'End If
End Function
And see what it returns.

So what is the fix you did with Global variable declaration?
Basically it looks like the following line doesn't return an integer value. It returns some object type, which you can't check against 700
Code:
sql = DTSGlobalVariables("CountofRec").Value

I declared an output on a sql select statement that populates the countofrec variable. (Parameters and output parameters)
It is a select statement that counts the records and I want to compare that number and if it is higher then 700 do the rest of the dts package and if not just end.

On the pane on the left (two tabs, Language and Browser) you can double-click on the available global variables and it will paste the correct reference into your code.
Turn on just-in-time debugging and step through your code to make sure you're referencing the variable correctly. (Right-click "Data Transformation Services" in Enterprise Manager and there's an option to turn on Debugging.)
Then within your code place a STOP statement and it will break during execution. SAVE your package before debugging. The debugger will always (?) close Enterprise Manager after you're done debugging.
Nothing in your code off-hand looks odd. Your options to do what you want are to add an ActiveX script within the workflow properties, or to, as you're trying to do, use a pass/fail condition to branch.
SQLDTS.com has additional information that you may find helpful.
