使用SSIS创建平面文件

Question

Hi I am trying to create a flat file (text file) from SQL Server Database View, I have a date time column in dd/mm/yyyy format but I want this column to be converted as 'ddmmccyy' format in flat file. eg (25/07/2016 as 25072016). Secondly in text file I has to leave certain character blank space after each column ie Starting byte:1 Ending byte:19 eg ID column is having value '5' but in text file I have to add 18 blank space after this value and my next column should begin on starting byte 20. I have around 50 plus columns with different specification. If some one can help me how to achieve this as I am very new to SSIS I don't know how to achieve this using Data Conversion or Derived Columns.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

To format the date, perhaps you can try the format function

Declare @Date date=getDate()
Select Format(@Date,'ddMMyyyy')

Returns 25072016

Unfortunately, I don't understand the second requirement
