  • hello every one,

    I have the requirement to transform .csv file to oledb destination but i need to add the new column before i transform the data into oledb, the column should take the values either default unique value or some sort of ordered values like say 1,2,3......

    i did tried by using derived column but i couldn't reach the target. help me out

  • Derived column sounds like the way to go. What do you mean "couldn't reach the target"? Can you give more detail about what you want the deriived column to contain?

    The absence of consumable DDL, sample data and desired results is, however, evidence of the absence of my response

  • say for example i have employee table in .csv file and want to transform it by adding new column which should contain unique id for each employee,

  • You Can use script component and variables to generate SNo.

  • If you're not comfortable with Script Tasks then you can insert into a staging table. Write a stored procedure to populate a unique value column, (probably using ROW_NUMBER), and then insert the whole lot into your destination table.
