Copying Multiple Tables From SQL 2000 To SQL 2005
Mar 27, 2008
Hello-
I need to know what would be the best way to perform a task I have been assigned. I have read multiple post online, and I came to the conclusion that the Import/Export wizard was my best choice. I'm trying to copy at least 80 tables from a SQL 2000 server to a SQL 2005 server. Currently I have these tables over on the destination server (SQL 2005) but this data is outdated and needs to be updated. The ulitimate goal would be to set up a SSIS process so that I can schedule this process to copy over once the data has passed QA. I followed through the Import/Export Wizard inside of the BID and I manually highlighted all of the tables and performed a edit "delete rows in destination table" . But to my alarm this did not occurr and now I have duplicate records in all of my 80 tables. I'm going to go through this process again, but I wanted to make sure this was going to be my best option.
Any suggestion ?

I have a rather sizeable SQLServer 2000 database. To work on an issue, I would like to copy just a couple tables into SQL Server 2005 Express. How does one go about this efficiently?

Hi,
Can anyone tell how to copy multiple tables from from one db to another using SSIS object model.
I am confused with things like. Do I need to add multiple source and destination in a dataflow task or do I need to add multiple dataflow task?
What is the difference between these two? Is there any other (easy way) to achieve this?
Thanks.

I am totally stumped. In SQL
Server 2000, I would fire up my EM and right-click on multiple SPs and then
Generate Scripts. I then would start QA and run the script on a different DB.
This was a very convenient feature to copy SPs over from one DB to other as well
as from one machine to other. I can’t seem to do the same in SQL Management
Studio. Is it possible? If yes, how?
Now this may not be the right place to ask but since VS and SS go hand-in-hand, I thought I would ask.

HI,
I current have two 2005 boxes running 9.0.3050 in different DMZ with the source running a DTS to drop and copy its tables to the source every night. It was working up until last thursday. Nothing has changed in the FW rules and getting no errors. One is 3.5GB which copies fine, the other is 21GB and runs all night with only getting a fraction of the tables populated. I'm the hardware guy, but have some understanding w/ sql. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi!
I just used the SSIS Import and Export Wizard to copy 50+ tables from SS05 to SS2K.
I found that the wizard created a package that I could not figure out how to edit, e.g., to change whether or not it had to CREATE a table, or just use an existing one. (I created some problems by manually editing the receiving table names to be ones that already existed -- but the original names it had did not exist, so it knew it had to create them. What I should have done, and eventually ended up doing, was scroll through my list of tables in the "receiving" box; I just figured editing the name would be faster, not realizing what problems I would create for myself.)
Anyhow, now that I see the complex package that the wizard creates, with a LOOP over the 50+ tables, I would like to know how/where in the package it is storing the information about the tables to copy.
Basically the wizard creates the following Control Flow tab entries (in processing sequence order):
an Execute SQL Task: NonTransactableSql
an Execute SQL Task: START TRANSACTION
a Sequence Container: Transaction Scoping Sequence, which contains
an Execute SQL Task: AllowedToFailPrologueSql
an Execute SQL Task: PrologueSql
a Foreach Loop Container, which contains
a Transfer Task with an icon I did not notice in the Toolbox
an Execute Package Task: Execute Inner Package
an Execute SQL Task: EpilogueSql
an "on success" arrow to
an Execute SQL Task: COMMIT TRANSACTION
an Execute SQL Task: PostTransaction Sql
an "on failure" arrow to
an Execute SQL Task: ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
an Execute SQL Task: CompensatingSql
Where, and how, can I look within this package to see the details about the tables I am transferring? I see that one of the Connection Managers is "TableSchema.XML" -- but it points to a temporary file on my hard drive, that I presume is populated by the package. Where does it get its information?
This is certainly much more complex than the package I would have written, based on my limited knowledge of SSIS. I would have been inclined to create 50+ Data Flow tasks, one for each table.
So now I'm trying to understand why the Wizard created this more-complex package.
Any help will be appreciated, including references to non-Microsoft books/websites/etc.
Thanks in advance.

This question is about SQL Server 2005:
I have been trying to figure out how to copy tables and stored procedures between 2 databases (on the same server) using SQL Server Management Studio. I have tried right clicking on the table name, "script table as", "drop to", "clipboard", then I click on the 2nd database, and then click on the "tables" . I change the name of the database and click "execute". This creates the table but does not copy the data. I have also tried "create to" "clipboard" and "insert to" "clipboard" and cannot seem to be able to figure out how to get the results that I want. I am new at this but need to get the tables with the data copied along with the stored procedures, even if I have to do them one at a time. When I was using SQL Server 2000, I was able to use DTS to copy objects to other databases easily. Can someone please tell me a way to accomplish what I need to do? I have gotten information here before that was very useful and was hoping that someone can help me again.Thank you so much. Carol Quinn

Hi,
I have right now sql server 2000 instance installed on a server (serverone) which is accessed on all nodes through an ODBC connection.
Now we have upgraded our server to windows server 2005 which will be on other machine servertwo. I have right now installed sql server 2005 in servertwo. Wish to copy the database from serverone to servertwo. Once it is copied and everything is working fine. I want to uninstal sql server 2000 from serverone.
What is the best way to do this? I am trying different things like tried running code Advisor on serverone which is not recognising the sql server 2005 instance of servertwo. It's giving message as since the sql server is installed on default settings it can't be accessed remotely. I see that SQL server 2000 database is accessible on all nodes including servertwo. Why is it that servertwo sql server is no where accessible?
What it is that I am missing?
Kindly help me.
Thanks, regards.

An 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.
Thanks,
MShah

Probably a stupid and regularly asked question but I can't seem to find an answer, so here goes,
we have 16 .txt files, some with over 350 columns.
That info from each individual file needs importing to multiple sql tables.
need to look at sql table1 does record exist? if not create new then add in data once its been transformed eg datetime from yyyymmdd into datetime values [managed to get this using derived column] for first 20 columns, otherwise do update for the 20 columns...
then look at sql table2 and repeat for next n columns....
So I was wondering is it going to be better to write this as a dtsx package? if so can you point me to an example
or should I just write the code as part of a code behind page that scrapes the info and does a standard update/insert procedure?
Any help would be welcome.
thanks

Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are:
1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup.
1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types.
1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data.
When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
Bob

Hi, There have been a number of posts on querying multiple tables using full text in SQL Server. I haven't quite found the answer I'm looking for, and I'm aware that in 2005 some full text functionality changed. I have an Events table which joins to a Venue table and also a many-to-many link (via a table called EventsToArtists) to an Artists table.When a user searches for "Rolling Stones Wembley" (without the apostrophes), I want the query to look in the following columns:Event.EventNameEvent.DescriptionArtists.ArtistNameVenue.VenueNameI have done quite a bit of testing on this, and haven't yet got the desired results. Rolling Stones will be found in the Artists table, and Wembley in the Venue table. At the moment, if I search for Rolling Stones, it behaves as expected. But if search for the venue name as well I get no results. I'm pretty sure this is because EventName wouldn't contain all key words and so the record is excluded from the results. At the moment I am using INNER JOINs between the tables....perhaps I should be executing a full text search on each table's catalogue and then do a UNION to join the resultsets?Hope you can point me in the right direction.Thanks

Hi, I am having a bit of hassle with trying to enter details to multiple tables in SQL Server 2005.
I have four tables, an
Attendance Table (AttendanceID(PK Identity specific), MembershipNo, Date)
Resistance Table (ResistId(PK Identity specific), Weight , Reps, Sets)
Aerobics Tables(AerobicsID(PK Identity specific), MachineID, Intensity, Time)
and a linking table for all of them.... ExerciseMaster(AttendanceID,ResistanceID,AerobicsI D)
My problem is that I can insert data to each specific table by itself using seperate insert statements.....eg....
//insert an attendance record to the attendance table
string userID;
userID = Session["User"].ToString();
SqlDataSource pgpDataSource = new SqlDataSource();
pgpDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringLogin"].ToString();
pgpDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;
pgpDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO [Attendance] ([MembershipNo], [Date]) VALUES (@MembershipNo, @Date)";
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("MembershipNo", userID);
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("Date", txtVisitDate.Text);
int RowsAffected = 0;
try
{
RowsAffected = pgpDataSource.Insert();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Server.Transfer("~/Problem.aspx");
}
finally
{
pgpDataSource = null;
}
//insert an aerobics record into the aerocibs table
SqlDataSource pgpDataSource = new SqlDataSource();
pgpDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringLogin"].ToString();
pgpDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;
pgpDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO [Aerobics] ([MachineID], [Intensity], [ExerciseTime]) VALUES (@MachineID, @Intensity, @ExerciseTime)";
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("MachineID", rower.ToString());
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("Intensity", txtRowerLevel.Text);
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("ExerciseTime", txtRowerTime.Text);
int RowsAffected = 0;
try
{
RowsAffected = pgpDataSource.Insert();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Server.Transfer("~/Problem.aspx");
}
finally
{
pgpDataSource = null;
}
//same code as above for the resistance table
However, i am facing the problem where this does not populate the link table(ExerciseMaster) with any information as i am unable to write the relevant IDs into the table that have been auto generated by SQL Server for each of the subTables.
I have read several forums where they recommend using something called @@IDENTITY but i have no idea how or where to use this in order to fill my exercise table...
Any help would be so much appreciated.... Also, hopefully what i have said all makes sense and someone will be able to help me...oh and one more thing...this is an ASP.NET page coding in C#
Cheers

We just upgraded from SQL Server 2000 to 2005. In the past, when I ran the import/export wizard to copy multiple tables from one database to another with SQL Server 2000, I had no problem. Now when I used the import/export wizard to copy multiple tables with SQL Server 2005, I kept getting an error. For example, when copied three tables, the first table might be copied fine and I got an error with the second table and the whole thing stop. Sometimes I could copy two tables. However, when I ran the import/export wizard to copy each table one at a time, it worked.
The error that I got was "Cannot insert duplicate key in object..." I selected the options to "Delete rows in existing destination tables", and "Enable identity insert". What am I doing wrong?

We currently have multiple instances of MS Sql 2000 and MS SQL 2005 installed on servers. When at other locations that uses different subnets only the default instance is available, published, broadcasted, selectable.
We have TCPIP and name pipes enabled for all instances. This seems to be a common problem for all locations.

We have a growing number of servers and databases on each server that all share the same (sub)set of sprocs and UDFs. DTS packages, which we use for data import, frequently need to be copied between the servers. What is the best way to maintain this? Ideally, I would like to be able to click a button and have a script creating or altering one or more sprocs automatically run aginst all DBs on all servers. Likewise, I'd like to be able to copy DTS packages to all servers.
We use SS2000 SP4 and plan to migrate to SS2005. We also use ASP.net 2.0 and VS 2005 SP1.

Hello all,
Being still a relative newcomer to SQL Server (people may say I'm trying to take on too much being somewhat inexperienced once they read about the problem I'm trying to tackle, but alas...) I'm running into the following problem: I need to create tables in my user database on the fly (using Stored Procedures) so that each table can be created many times in the database but only once for every user. The tables should be named something like "username.Table1", "username.Table2" etc. as opposed to "dbo.Table1". I then want to use the stored procedure from .NET/C# in my web application, so that i can create the complete set of usertables for each of my clients.
Now, I tackled the stored procedure part (that is, it creates all the tables I need with all the parameters I want) and am able to use it from my web application (which took some time to learn but proved quite easy to do), but I cannot seem to get it coupled to the current user (instead of the dbo). Every time I trie, the tables are created as dbo.Table1 and when I try to create a new set, it gives a warning ("table with name such and so already exists..."). I made sure to log in as an authenticated user (using forms authentication) before trying to create the tables but this gives the aforementioned result.
What am I doing wrong? I use Visual Web Developer Express, SQL Server 2005 Express and IIS version 5.1
Please help :-D

I have a 100m row table that I need to come from one database to another database in SQL SERVER.
The bulkcopy feature in DTS is nice -- however is there a stored procedure or external software that will be able to do this outside of DTS.
Right now I am doing a
SELECT *
INTO
(table name)
FROM (table name)
and on a 100m row table it is taking around 52 hours. Not acceptable.

We've had a new server set up with SQL 2012 and I'm in the process of moving data to it from a 2008 (SP2) server.
Details are as follows:-

Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7600: ) (VM)
I don't want to do a backup/restore routine as there are collation conflicts on the 2008 server.I've created the database and tables on the 2012 instance and now I want to transfer the data from the 2008 instance to the 2012 one.
The 2012 instance has a linked server to the 2008 instance.I was trying to use sp_MSForEachTable (I know, it's old and will probably disappear shortly) but that doesn't seem to work properly because some of the columns have an Identity field set up.
Some of the tables have upwards of 10 million records in them and are quite sizeable.how I can achieve the transfer without a back-up/restore?
