I want to take this a step further and create a function that will return a set of tablenames in a table based on a 'group' parameter which is a simple integer...1->9, etc.Obviously, what I am doing is not working out.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnReturnTablesForGroup ( @whichgroup int ) RETURNS @RETTAB TABLE ( TABLENAME VARCHAR(50)

I need to use Bulk insert statement for copying a table with 200 million rows to another table on the same server...the table has no primary key or identity column.... script for BULK INSERT ...
how to copy a content of a table from one remote server to another,. server A does not see server B (B doesn't see A) - I cannot even ping to one from another.I do have SQL Studio installed on server C, which IT team configured to allow access to both A and B.So what I did so far is to periodically:
1. connect from the studio on server C to server A 2. run the following script on server A: SELECT * FROM A.myTable FOR XML PATH('ROOT') 3. copy the result 4. connect from the studio on server C to server B 5. to write something like
DECLARE @xmlData XML; SET @xmlData = pasting here my result from item 3 above
6. INSERT INTO SELECT
ref.value ..... FROM @xmlData.nodes('/myElemnet/ROOT') xmlData( ref );
so it works. now there is a requirement to schedule this update to run periodically and I need to implement it..
I am tasked with truncating and reloading tables from one server to another. Company policy prevents cross-server queries, but allows SSIS packages with cross-server connections. I am doing this for about 25 tables. I have the table names in a single table & I have created an FEL to execute tasks against each table one-by-one. It works fine to truncate all the tables. I run into issues, though, with the DataFlowTask. I'm able to tell it which server & table to dynamically connect from and to, but it doesn't know how to map the metadata. They're the exact same columns and field names in both source & destination.
After performing a join operation on two tables i get the below resultset
pid, fname, typename, pname, pcost
1, cad, bars, product-1, 100
2, har, witte, product-2, 120
3, nes, bars, product-3, 119
Now i need to create files with the obtained resultset like
Column 'fname' is the folder name and 'typename' should be the file in the particular folder.
For example the first record should be inserted into file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'cad' and third record should be created in file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'nes'.
I'm looking to dynamically remove records from tables dynamically using the information schema within SQL Server. Looking to remove records from all the tables within a schema. I have gotten as far as generating the script dynamically then using a while exist clause to execute the delete statements.
I have created some dynamic sql to check a temporary table that is created on the fly for any columns that do contain data. If they do the column name is added to a dynamic sql, if not they are excluded. This looks like:
If (select sum(Case when [Sat] is null then 0 else 1 end) from #TABLE) >= 1 begin set @OIL_BULK = @OIL_BULK + '[Sat]' +',' END However, I am currently running this on over 230 columns and large tables 1.3 mil rows and it is quite slow. How I can dynamically create a sql script that only selects the columns in the table where there is data in a speedier manner. Unfortunately it has to be on the fly because the temporary table is created on the fly.
hi , I am trying to copy files dynamically from a remot folder by using File System task , the files are going to be generated daily with f1yyyy-mm-dd.txt I created 3 file connections : - Existing remote folder (RemotFolder) and set that to var v_remotefolder - Existing destination folder (DestFolder) - existing file (filename) and set the expression to var (string ) =v_fname in the File System task I set the the Destination connection = DestFolder Operation =Copy file Source = filename expression >>Property (source) = @[User::v_remotefolder] + @[User::v_fname] I know I need the date too ,but I 'm getting error on this step. Can you please tell me if you know how to resolve this without using For each loop since I don't have control on the remote folder and I don't want to copy unneeded files (the files are 10 GB daily) and get delete it once every month. -I know this not uncommon task but I can't find any example. Thanks
I've an emergency requirement to copy Source server database backup files to destination Server through xcopy command. Backup job on source server runs daily, so once this job get completes all databases backups needs to be moved to destination server. But here the main concern is "the backup files on destination server shouldn't be overwritten, they should be placed separately as Source server job runs daily".
We've a command which overwrites backups on destination server. But we need to keep backups on destination at-least for 4 weeks (means : retention should be 4 Weeks).
I have a tree and I need to copy a nested sub-tree (an element with its children, which in turn may have their owns) from one place to another.
The system should allow to handle up to 8 levels. I do know how to move, but cannot figure out how to copy.
Below is a working example With Create Table, Select and Cut / Paste (implemented via Update).

I am having three table tblTest,tblTestQuestion,tblAnswers
Each test can have multiple question and each Question can have multiple answers.
Now I am already having records in database. I wants to create clone copy of existing test except testdetails in tblTest because the test will be unique, and then insert questions and answers into their respective tables.
I was trying to create SP but stuck.
Please find below tables structure

I want to make a copy of MyData from Production to Testing and rename it from MyData to MyData_Testing.
Currently, I figure I will have to make a backup - copy it from Production to Testing - restore it. Since I can link the servers, I can initiate the backup from Testing - copy - and restore from a script on Testing. The only part I am not sure of is how to copy the file via the script.
Using import task only can select and copy tables and views.
Since there are many objects at the same DB I don't need copy, is there any way let me select and copy some objects, such as functions, stored procedures?
I am running a script by the end of the day. What I need is the rows in my temp table get saved in a permanent table.
The name of the table should end with the current date at the end.
Declare @tab varchar(100) set @tab = 'MPOG_Research..ACRC_427_' + CONVERT(CHAR(10), GETDATE(), 112 ) IF object_id(@tab ) IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE '@tab'; Select * INTO @tab from #acrc427;

I am trying to copy a table from one server to another server using SQL Server Management Studio. I opened a new query window on the destination server and typed the following code:
EXEC sp_addLinkedServer 'VSQL025'
However it gives me an error as follows: Could not find server 'VSQL025' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.
Not sure what I am doing wrong since I know that I need to connect to the source server, yet it errors out. I am new to this so please give me lots of details. Also, if I could copy the entire database between servers that would be better. Thank you.
Hi, I got two tables in a rather big sql server database that I need to work on. Is there any command that will allow me to import the two tables to a database in my local server. If I do a select * into temptable from sourcetable it is created in the database of the main server. However I want the table creation in my local server. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Can you please advise on how to copy tables from DB1 to DB2 on the same SQL 7 Server. The programer had me drop the tables from DB2 and wants me to copy the tables from DB1 to DB2.
I have two SQL Server tables on the same server and in the same database. I'll call them table A and table B. They have identical schemas. I need to insert all rows in table A into table B. (Don't laugh - this is just for testing and long run the tables will reside on different servers.)
Can someone please tell me the correct task to use for this and the connection type I need for both the source and destination?
