I am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express:
sqlcmd -S (local)SQLExpress -i C:CreateDB.sql
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive. I tried getting rid of the i parameter and pasting the script from the sql file into the batch file, but it didn't work.
Thanks,
Dave
Hi all,
I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.
Thanks in advance,

The Sql Server database can only see the local drive.
I would like to set up a batch file that will copy a SQL Server
backup file from the local drive to the network drive. I would
like to append the file date to the end of the copied file. I
assume a batch file can accomplish this but I am new to batch
file writing. Does anyone have code that they already created
for this sort of task??
Thank you!

Can someone show me an example of the syntax required to execute multiple BCP commands within the same batch (*.bat) file?
Sorry if this is a bit of a basic question, but not being a programmer by profession, I need to plead ignorance. I've tried a few things, but I just can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks!

I have a windows batch file that executes a SQL Server bcp command. Iwould like to obtain a return code if the bcp command fails. However,I cannot seem to find the return code (if any) for bcp. For example,if the bcp command is improperly formatted, or has a bad password, Iwant the batch file to return an error. Right now, my batch filesimply executes and returns success, even when the bcp command fails.Has anyone run into this before?Thanks!

Hi,
I would like to ask someone who could help me with one small problem:
I would like to run SQL server task on one of my servers, that will connect
to all other servers (including ones that are not SQL servers, ie: Exchange,
Test Server etc) one at the time, and that will execute one batch file (update.bat) that is residing on each server under C: drive.
Batch file will copy some things from all of the servers to one server.
Thanks, in advance.

Dear All,
i need to put a query in a batch file to be easy to use by the user.
jusy only double click on it and it will work.
can any one help?
I'm trying schedule a batch file to run as a job from sql server agent. The batch file copies files from one server directory to a directory on another server. The batch file works properly when executed directly. The job is being executed under the sql service account login. I've given the service account access to both the source and destination directories.
When I try to run the job it fails with an "Access is denied" error on both the source and destination directories (as read from job history).
Any ideas?
Ok.. I thought I could do this but I can't get this to work.. I need to create a batch file to run an sql update statement.. This is simple but I can't get it to wortk.. How do I do it?

Hi
I am trying to run a batch file stored on different server from the one that SQL Server is on using T-SQL. I am using the following syntax:
EXEC master..XP_CMDShell '\hit1DEVArchivingArchivingDataFiles.zipdata.bat'
But it doesnt seem to be working, it states that it is not recognised as an internal or external command.
Any ideas?
Thanks
HI There,
I just created batch file to restart analysis services and the job for executing this bat file.
<<Batch File >>
NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"
NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"
And I did the following step in sql agent:
Create the job > Select CmdExec Job > In commend section, I wrote CALL C:/RestartSSAS.bat
When I run this job, it seems everything went right but at the end, the job was filed.
However, I don't see any error on this step since the service was stopped and started successfully.
The below is the error message:
Executed as user: D20WKZC1SYSTEM. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)" The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was stopped successfully. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service is starting. The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was started successfully. Process Exit Code 0. The step failed.
I've also tried to create the package using 'Execute Process Task ' and run it.
And it's successful but when I schedule it in sql agent then it failes.
Any thoughts?
Please advise me and thanks in advance.

Hi everyone!
I'm new using SQL server (7.0) and I would like to know if it is possible to create a batch file that will automaticly start a job...
If so, let me know and give me some piece of information (command, parameters)
or a web site, anything that will help me do so...
I'll be very grateful.
If not, let me know anyways
Thanks a lot in advance...
Similar to a previous thread, but not exactly. I have a batch file that takes
two date parameters. I have a SQL script that gets the values I want and assigns
them to variables, but I don`t know how to pass these to the batch.
I`m thinking of something like:
declare @myvar1 datetime, @myvar2 datetime
select @myvar1 = <some date value>
select @myvar2 = <some date value>
exec xp_cmdshell "c:mssqlscriptsMYBATCH.BAT" @myvar1 @myvar2
This just errors out when it reaches the variables in the last line. If I move
the variables inside the quotes, it passes them as literal text strings, not as
the assigned datetime values.
Any ideas? Is this possible?
Thanks,
Robert
Exec master..xp_cmdshell "bcp sdnetpro..nbtorder11 out d:databtorder11.txt /c /t /Sservername /Usa /Ppassword"
Hi, this code run fine from within sql server query window. I want to put this code in a batch file and run the batch file.. it did not work. someone told me the revised code is :
bcp sdnetpro..nbtorder11 out d:databtorder11.txt /c /t,/r -Sservername -Usa -Ppassword"
This is not working. Please if anyone knows how to fix this, I would appreciate. One more thing, how can I confirm that the bcp has successfully done. do I have to create a log file and if so what is the code to create this log file.

Hi, and thanks for your help. I have created a simple batch that xcopy files from one directory to another shared directory (in another server). Here is the code:
xcopy c:OUT_TRANSIT E:BACKUP_CESWEB /y
the E:BACKUP_CESWEB is in another server where I mapped the BACKP_CESWEB folder and make it shared.
the location of the batch file is in c:code .
When I double click the batch, the files are moved into E:BACKUP_CESWEB But when I use the window 2000 schedule or try to run the batch code from within sql server analyser, I get no results.
Any idea how to solve this.
The bottom line is that I want to copy files from one server to another server.Thanks for your help
