My DTS package transfers data mostly codes from temp to master table. The master table has 10 description fields for each of the codes. These description fields are then populated using update statements joined with 10 description tables. However, the update process is so inefficient since a single update statement takes several hours to finish.
The second option is to populate description fields as codes are transferred from temp to master table using 10 left outer joins with description tables. But the result was unexpected. It's giving me more than twice as many records as there are in the temp table.
What would be the best (efficient) approach for this situation? Would greately appreciate any help/thoughts.
Is it possible/advisable when transfering very large amounts of data from server to server to: trasnfer the data to a new table first second alter new table adding indexes, defaults, ets based on original table
if it is what flow item would be used to transfer/alter the indexes and defaults?
I'm very new to ssis so the more detail you can give the better.
In the full recovery model, if i run a transaction that inserts 10MB of data into a table, then 10 MB of data is moved in the data file. Does this mean then that the log file will grow by exactly 10MB as well?
I understand that all transactions are logged to the log file to enable rollback and point in time recovery, but what is actually physically stored in the log file for this transactions record? Is it the text of the command from the transaction or the actual physical data from that transaction?
I ask because say if I have two drives, one with 5MB/s write speed for the log file and one with 10MB/s write speed for the data file, if I start trying to insert 10 MB of data per second into the table, am I going to be limited to 5MB/s by the log file drive, or is SQL server not going to try and log all 10 MB each second to the log file?
I am trying to transfer a table form one server to another using object transfer.
I can not transfer this one table. I can access and view the data I get this error when transferring “Cannot Truncate table <table name> because this table does not exist in database Attempt to use Bulk copy with a non-existent server table
Any ideas. If it were corrupt I am assuming I would not be able to view data and use table in production database.
My vendor requires data to be sent in Excel format. Some of my tables have rows over 65,536 so I need to use Excel 2007 (Max of 1,048,576). Right now my data sits in SQL 2000. I am using MS SQL Enterprise Manager 8.0 to prepare the data. Is there some kind of add on or selection I am missing to use DTS to export from SQL to Excel 2007?Thanks in advance.

I have created a SSIS package that transfer data from a Foxpro database to an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. I used the wizard to create the package but I load and execute the package within a custom application that I have written in C#.
The way the custom application is intended to work is that the user can have the database in any location on the computer and all he has to do is specify the location then the application programatically changes the location of the source on the package that it has loaded and then execute it. When I initially run the package the first time (using the original path), it works fine and transfers the data. However, every subsequent time I run the application and specify a different path, the database on the SQL Server side gets created as expected but the data is not transfered!
Where am I going wrong? Do I need to save the package after I modify the source then reload and run it again or do i need to change something else in the Data Flow to make this work?
I am newbie to MDS of SQL,want to know how we can transfer tables from two different SQL Databases to MDS.Suggest me the steps to proceed with any examples.
I have a SSIS project where I am transferring data from DB2 table to SQL Server table. There is a column called REC_ID which I need to encrypt before we store it in SQL Server. Now, SQL Server has buildin encryption functionality and we need to use that as there are views that will decrypt this column and give data to authenticated users.
So, the question is, is there anyway that I can encrypt the column data in my SSIS package using my target SQL server database key and using SQL server encryptbykey function while transferring?
Hi everyone,I need some help transfering my database(SQL2005) to the host's server.In SQL 2000 I had the Management tools > DTS or ImportExport tools.SQL2005 lacks this, all I've got is Express Manager > can't connect to multiple databases.Can connect to one database and has a screen to excute TSQL commands.I don't want to have to recreate the whole database on the server.....This would be crazy... 150 stored procedures and 30 tables. Not to mention all the individual settings for each column.I know there is SQL Studio Management tools for the full version of SQL 2005. Anyone got any idea's ?Any input/suggestions is greatly appreciated.Thanks,JShep

SQL v7.0 - DTS Tying to transfer all object info, sp's, constraints and data in to a fresh new database in the same instance, but it's hit and miss when it comes to getting everything transferred. Followed step by step instructions (GUI/Scripts) and sometimes the table structure will transfer without PK's, as well as some data and if you're lucky, some constraints. Stored proc's have a tendency to show up 20 minutes later. I'm testing this on a machine with IE 5, SP2 and fresh new Dll's (just in case something was corrupted). Is there a priority as far as what to transfer first? For example, tables only 1st, then constraints on down to records parent to child? I am assumming you should be able to transfer all at the same time since it's built in to the utility. Or, does it come down to something in the schema? If anyone out there has experienced something similar and found a solution, please advise.

I would like to transfer data from an SQL Server 2000(standard edition) on a server located outside of the department TO a laptop/notebook using MSDE located within the department. This will be 1 or 2 times a year of transfering the data from a server to a laptop. So what are some ways or the best ways of transferring data?
We are working with a Mexican developer to share data between our English database (SQL 2005) and his Spanish database (SQL 2000). We are thinking the best way to gain access to his data (since our website will need data from both databases) is to have them Export data from their Spanish tables into English tables within their database and replicate those tables to our database several times a day. Does this seem like a good idea - any suggestions for a better way to share the data? Thanks
I have a table in a database that has just over 1 million records, eachrecord about 50-60 characters. I need to transfer this data to anotherdatabase. I implemented two options:1) Read the data record by record and insert into the destinationdatabase, using ODBC. I played with different commit intervals, up to100,000. This version takes about 12 minutes. Having indexes on thedestination table or removing them made little difference.2) Dump the data into a flat file, and use bulk copy to read the fileinto the destination table. This takes less than a minute.Are these results within the normal ranges? I am particularlyinterested in a way to improve upon the first method.
hi,My problem is I am creating a new database. I need to all the tablesand procedures fromone databse to another database in sql server 2000, both in sameserver.Kalaivanan.
Hi,We have a unique situation here that is puzzling me. I have a programthat uploads data to our SQL Server. The program runs fine on WIndows95. I have installed it on a Windows 2000 machine and it will connectto our data but will not upload. It processes the file but the datadoes not appear in the database.I have checked the ODBC setup and everything is the same except I usedsqlsvr32.dll instead of sqlsrvr.dll for the 32 bit driver.I know this isn't a lot of information to go on, but the program waswritten by a contractor who has since been replaced and I don't reallyhave an idea of even where to begin checking.Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thank you,
Not certain whether this is the right forum to post this question - please advise.
I am fairly new to SQL Server and need to know the best way to transfer data from one data base to another.
For example:
I have a database running via SQL Server 2005 developer edition and another running using SQL Server 2005 Express edition.
If I do a backup on the developer edition I get an error and failure when attempting to upload the data on to the Express edition.
What am I doing wrong can anyone advise?
Also what is the best way to add/remove/update stored procedures and or change the database table structures for a current database (MySql for example allows one to type command line calls direct to the relevant database to alter database tables).

I need to transfer data from one table to another.I will be using the SQL Query Analyzer to do this.This is not a simple transfer of data to the same structured tables.These tables are completely different, for the most part.For instance, I will be selecting certain fields of one table.....SELECT fldOne, fldTwo FROM someTableI need to take this information, one row at a time and input it into a different type table.So, something like this to insert into the other table...INSERT INTO otherTable( fld1, fld2) VALUES( value1, value2 )I've looked around for a sample to achieve this, but may have overlooked it?Anyone have a link to show this or a quick sample?Thanks all,Zath
