select * into dbo.ashutosh from attribute where 1=2
"USE WHERE 1=2 TO AVOID COPYING OF DATA"
//HERE "ASHUTOSH" IS THE NEW TABLE NAME AND "ATTRIBUTE" IS THE TABLE WHOSE REFERENCE IS USED//

If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
i have 2 tables (both containing the same column names/datatypes), say table1 and table2.. table1 is the most recent, but some rows were deleted on accident.. table2 was a backup that has all the data we need, but some of it is old, so what i want to do is overwrrite the rows in table 2 that also exist in table 1 with the table 1 rows, but the rows in table 2 that do not exist in table one, leave those as is.. both tables have a primary key, user_id.
any ideas on how i could do this easily?
thanks

Hello,
Probabaly a silly question yet as a DOTNET developer, I'm trying to simulate DTS when for example, I don't have permission to perform DTS on a production server.
In particular and interested regards caching of rows before the service decides to flush the buffer and write to the target table. Safe to assume DTS is cursor based?
Hello all,
Please help....
I have a text file which needs to be created into a table (let's call it DataFile table). For now I'm just doing the manual DTS to import the txt into SQL server to create the table, which works. But here's my problem....
I need to extract data from DataFile table, here's my query:
select * from dbo.DataFile
where DF_SC_Case_Nbr not like '0000%';
Then I need to create a new table for the extracted data, let's call it ExtractedDataFile. But I don't know how to create a new table and insert the data I selected above into the new one.
Also, can the extraction and the creation of new table be done in just one stored procedure? or is there any other way of doing all this (including the importation of the text file)?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have "inherited" a project working on a SQL 2000 database. The project calculates commissions based on data from an invoice header table and an invoice details table. The goal is to extract data from the primary database tables, perform limited manipulations, and store the resultant data into a table in a different database for reference and reporting. I have the query complete that extracts and manipulates the data, but I am stuck in trying to add this data to the final storage/reporting table. I would also like to do error checking to be certain that a record is not "re-inserted" from the source data to the destination table. Thanks in advance, Barry

Hi All
Iam using sql 2005 and am new to it, I want to copy a table and data from server to another, how is this possible?
Many Thanks in advance....
I have the following table:
Table name: RR
columns:
Subject (varchar (35), Null)
Topic (varchar (35), Null)
RD (text, null)
RR (text, null)
Picture (varchar (50), Null)
Video (varchar (50), Null)
RRID (int, Not Null)
TSTAMP (datetime, Null)
RRCount (int, Not Null)
This table stores common information used in resolving technical problems based on Subject and Topic. However, I've now created a Subject/Topic where I want to copy all the data that corresponds to another Subject/topic.
Example:
There are 35 rows that correspond to Subject = 'Publisher01' and Topic = 'Subcategory03'. I want to create 35 new rows that contain the same RD and RR data, but have Subject = 'Publisher02' and Topic = 'Subcategory07'. Highest current RRID = 5008
I cannot figure out how to write that query. I apologize in advance for the fact that this is, no doubt, a seriously beginner question.

Or do i need to specify all the colums where the * is ?
and if so is it the columns from the SP or the colums

Hello,
I have a Data Flow Source that uses a SQL Command to pull data. In the SQL statement, I used CAST to change all varchar types to Nvarvchar to suit MS Access. I can preview the data from the source. In testing, the SQL statement only pulls about ten records.
I have a Microsoft 2000 Access database table as a destination. Data in each column in the table is required, and all columns have defaults.
I also have a grid data viewer set up. I have the DefaultBufferMaxRows set to 2 so that I can see data going across. When I execute this dataflow, no data is transfered to the Access database table. No data shows up in the dataviewer. There are no errors. The 'Execution Results' tab does not show errors, but indicates that zero rows were transfered. There are no warnings.
How do I begin to isolate the problem? The following is the SQL Statement in the Data Flow Source. Thank you for your help! - cdun2

Hi all,
I got a situation here.....
From a source table (in SERVER1) I get ids of candidates and from another source (in SERVER2) I get their CVs (text files stored in various Folders). My destination table (in SERVER3) has two fields, CandidateId & CandidateCV.
I have to transfer the data in above fashion for nearly 1 million records.
How can I write a DTS package which picks up the text file from SERVER2 based on the CandidateId which comes from SERVER1? Probably I need some kind of looping mechanism which changes the candidate id & his CV file.
Can anyone help???
Thanks...
Is it possible to easily copy data from one table to another if the data types don't match. I know you can do a INSERT INTO table1(col1,col2) SELECT (col2,col7) FROM table2 if the data types match but is there a way to do this if they don't. I'm not trying to copy date times into bit fields or anything. I just have an old table that I built when I really didn't know what I was doing now I at leastthink I have a better understanding of what data types to use, so I was wanting to move the data in the orignal table to my new one. Most of the fields in the olddatabase are text datatypes and the new database is nvarchar(50) data types. Thanks for any suggestions.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAn SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.

Hello,
In SQL Server 2000, is it possible to take a table with one field (column), and pivot the table so that the characters in the row data become the field (column) names of another table ( or in a View)? The number of records could vary.
If so, how would I do this?
Sample table;
Create Table dbo.MonthlyData
(
Categories varchar(30) NOT NULL
)
Sample data;
Sales Volume 2005-02
TotRefVol 2005-02
Sales Ratio 2005-02
Sales Volume 2005-03
TotRefVol 2005-03
Sales Ratio 2005-03
Sales Volume 2005-04
TotRefVol 2005-04
Sales Ratio 2005-04

Peace be on you,
In my organization, we have a database which exceed unto 2 GB. The application on which we are working is developing since the time of asp / cb 6 and in short it is the baby of many developers. It is a kind of ERP which has no documentation.
Problem 1:
=========
Now, to reduce the size of the database we have examined some of the orphan procedures, tables, and columns. Is it possible for me to create a DTS package which create the backup of all the orphan stuff to some other database and delete it from the actual one. Moreover, We still have doubts that some of fields which we think are orphan, might not be. So we need another DTS package which rollback all the changes. (Any Idea for that)
Problem 2:
=========
We want another DTS package which would move the data from one database to another and same rollback DTS for this one. (Any Idea for that)
Problem 3:
=========
How can we use DTS programming to do these tasks ? what benefits do I got from DTS Programming over DTS Wizard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
