check file date script

SQL Server file system objects
Posted: 08-18-2004 06:23 PM
Hello World!...
Here is the scenerio..
SQL Server Database
VB FrontEnd App.
App loads XML file data into database.
Changes are often made to the XML files. When changes are made,
the files must be reloaded into the database via the application. Changes
have been missed causing loss of production and jobs being processed
incorrectly.
I am looking for a script that will check the filedate of the
xml file or the filedate tag in the xml against a 'DesignFileDate' field in
the database. If a discrepancy in the filedates is identified, I want to
load the XML data to a temporary table [ExchangeTable] into the database.
The developer will provide a process to either load the data
into the production database or delete the data. This will be processed from
the Exchange table.
Having no background in programming languages and fairly new to
SQL this is quite a challenge.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated..
Regards
Hi steve,
I will recommend the .NET framework for your application and SQL Job Agent
for your monitoring purposes.

|||Look in "Books on Line" (BOL) that comes with SQL Server as it is a great
resource for SQL Server questions of all types.
Using T-SQL you can read values out of an XML doc and compare them to
variables in a stored proc. Look in BOL and if you have any more questions
feel free to ask.

I would recommend that you start with the SQL Server documentation (aka
Books OnLine) and the XML chapter there.
