The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SSIS Script Transfer results in "There is already an object named" for procs & views

Asked by Russell2566 in SQL Server 2005, Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, MS SQL DTS

Tags: ,

I'm writing a simple SSIS package script [my first SSIS romp] and I'm running into a headache that won't go away. When I have CopyAllViews = true or procedures as well i get back a standard SQL error:

"There is already an object named"

When I check the destination I already have that proc/view. It's like it's trying to create each view and proc 2x. DropDestinationObjectsFirst  = true has no effect as that only seems to be run once. I've tested this on multiple DBs and run into the same results.

I'm desperately looking for a scripted solution workaround or patch to the SSIS engine. I've found lots of people with this problem, but no one with a good solution. There is no way I'm the only person trying to do this.

Is there a good VB way to transfer the views/procs separately in a NON-Transfer method?Start Free Trial
