Ok, so thank you first off to Arnie for helping with my auto-increment problem. I'm not in the office now, but I can't wait to try out what he showed me to get this thing running.
My bigger problem that I'm hoping you guys can help me with though is this:
I have two servers, and two databases, lets call them dev, and staging. These are exactly the same, except in different physical locations, and changes are made on dev, and then the info is updated to staging. I am writing a C# script to automate the process of updating the information from the dev database on the dev server, to staging. I am profficient with C#, but this is the first time i've ever touched SQL.
So by using the INSERT and SELECT method, I can get the info over properly, I am assuming (as I said I haven't been in the office to try it out yet) but for each table on the database there are different sets of column names, so I can't do a simple
Loop{
SqlCommand del = new SqlCommand("Truncate table " +MyTable", connectionstring)
del.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO MyTable (MyColumn)
SELECT MyOtherColumn FROM MyOtherTable", connectionstring);
com.ExecuteNonQuery();
}While(...) and change the MyTable/MyOtherTable values for each loop.
Is there a quick and easy way of calling a list of columns for each table, so that I can change the table value, get the list of columns, and assign those as a variable? That way it can run through every table on the database, and no matter what the number or names of the columns in each table, it will grab all the necessary data and pass it over.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I 'am working with SQL Server7.0, and I need to transfer bulk of data(in millions) from aremote database in Rdb to SQL Server. What is the best approach other than using a comma delimited flat file? Is there a way to create a database link and then use a copy script in SQL to copy the data directly? I would appreciate any help. Thank You.

2. Now one day the source production / publisher SQL Server is down and the remaining DR SQL Server is up (subscriber)
3. Next day, we fixed and bring up the production / publisher SQL Transactional Replication server, then how can we sync back all existing data records from subscriber into publisher side ?

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?
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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
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?
Thanks,

Anybody has idea how to transfer database from SQL Server 7 to 6.5? I know how to migrating/upgrading database from 6.5 to 7.0, but from 7.0 to 6.5
seems not an easy one. DTS only transfer tables and data but not trigers,
SPs, etc. The script generated in 7 can not be applied to 6.5. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
i transferred the database on 6.5 SQL server to 7.0 , only the tables were transfered . none of the stored procedures or triggers were transfered.
how can one transfer these objects also.
What will be the best way to transfer 40 GB using DTS.
Thank you,

Transfering DB from one collation in SQL 2000 to a different collation in SQL 2000.
We need to transer our databases from codepage 850 to 1252.
We have succesfully transfered all objects and data EXCEPT stored procedures and triggers using the "Import/Export Data Wizard." We then scripted all the stored procedures and triggers from the cp850 database and installed them into the cp1252 DB. However for quite a few stored procedures and triggers we get the error "Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation." I have tried scripting the sp's with the option 'Only script 7.0 compatible features' on and off but get the same errors each time.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Paula.
