SQL-Server-2012

My Variable is MyCounter type int32 and value 1.

Trying to write the script:

C#

public void Main()
{
    MessageBox.Show(Dts.Variables("MyCounter").Value);
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
}

I get the following error:
Non-invocable member 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.ScriptObjectModel.Variables' cannot be used like a method.

Need help
Thanks
Dov

Solution 1

In C#, you use square brackets [ ] for indexing; not parentheses.

C#

public void Main()
{
    MessageBox.Show(Dts.Variables["MyCounter"].Value);
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
}

Hi,
I changed the script as suggested:

public void Main()
{
MessageBox.Show(Dts.Variables["MyCounter"].Value);
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
}
and after Build Solution I received 2 error messages::
Error 1 The best overloaded method match for 'System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(string)' has some invalid arguments and
Error 2 Argument 1: cannot convert from 'object' to 'string'

I am using here Microsoft Visual C#2010 does it make any difference?
can you please look into it?

Yes, I knew you would. The error messages tell you what you need to know.

Add .ToString() at the end of Dts.Variables["MyCounter"].Value. That should work.
