Copy Table And Data From One Database To Another
Oct 3, 2006I am working on a migration project.
Doing the standard processing, taking source data in a staging database, where I then create the new target tables, transform the source data into the new target table structure, and load the data.
However, having created the new target tables in my staging database, I cannot accurately migrate these tables into the new database.
An example table.
The following is the script created by SQL Management Studio if I right click and script the table as CREATE.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbPRO_Package]( [PRO_PackageID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [CreatedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [CreatedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [ModifiedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [ModifiedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [GUID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_GUID] DEFAULT (newid()), CONSTRAINT [PK_tbPackage_ID] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [PRO_PackageID] ASC)WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]
Note that the field PRO_PackageID has an identity, and is a primary key.
Also note the constraints on several fields and the default values.
If I try to move this table and data using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, telling it to drop and create the table, and to keep identity, it does not correctly generate the table defintion - it generates the following script
CREATE TABLE [Migration Staging].[dbo].[tbPRO_Package] ([PRO_PackageID] int NOT NULL,[PackageCode] varchar(8) NOT NULL,[LKU_VatRateCode] nchar(10),[CancellationCharge] decimal(18,2),[CancellationMultiplier] decimal(18,2),[CreatedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[CreatedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[ModifiedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[ModifiedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[GUID] uniqueidentifier NOT NULL)
We've lost the identity, the PK,the constraints and the defaults.
If I use the SSIS Transfer SQL Server Objects Task, then the primary key is kept, but the identity is not, nor are the constraints or defaults.
Am I missing something? Is it actually POSSIBLE to accurately move tables between databases?
Dbo.Table Of A Database In The .SQLEXPRESS Object Explorer: How To Copy The Dbo.Table To The Another Blank Dbo.Table?
Jan 9, 2008Hi all,
The following dbo.Tables of Northwind.mdf in my .SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server Management Studio Express) are missing:
dbo.Categories
dbo.CustomerCustomerDemo
dbo.CustomerDemographics
dbo.Customers
dbo.Employees
dbo.EmployeeTerritories
dbo.Order Details
dbo.Orders
dbo.Products
dbo.Regions
dbo.Shippers
dbo.Suppliers
dbo.Territories.
But, I have these dbo.Tables in a different Database "xyzDatabase". How can I copy each of these dbo.Tables to the another blank dbo.Table of Northwind Database?
I right clicked on the dbo.Categories and I saw the following thing:
dbo.Categories
New Table...
Modify
Open Table
Script Table as |> CREATYE To |>
DROP To |>
SELECT To |>
INSERT To |> New Query Editor Window
File....
Clipboard
UPDATE To |>
DELETE to |>
From the above observation,I think it is possible to copy the dbo.Table from the one Database to the Northwind Database that needs to be repaired. Please help and advise me how to do this task or tell me where I can find the Microsoft document that gives the details of this X-copy thing.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
P. S. I am using VB 2005 Express to create a project to learn "Calling Stored Procedures with ADO.NET" (see Paul Kimmel's article in http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3438221) that needs the dbo.Tables of Northwind Database and my Northwind Database has been screwed up for quite a while and needs a big repair.
Copy Raw Data From A Flat File To A Database Table, BUT Do Not Insert Duplicates
Aug 2, 2007Hi,
I'm new to SQL Server 2005 SSIS. I'm trying to do something very simple, but I cannot figure it out, PLEASE HELP!
I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.
Thank you,
Aldo

I tried creating thenewtable prior to using this select, but then sql server cries aboutthe table already existing. I tried creating the index after theselect "CREATE UNIQUE INDEX FieldAIndex ON newtable (FieldA)" - thatdidn't give a error, but also failed to mark the field as primary.Suggestions?

Copy Table Into Different Database
Apr 19, 2007Hello, I have a table that I would like to copy into a different database. I'm using SQL Server 2005. The reason I don't just copy the data with "SELECT * FROM..." is because the desired table doesn't exist yet. It has ~50 columns and I'd rather not recreate them all (I didn't design it). Thanks.

Feb 29, 2008I want to make an exact copy of a production database table in our development database.
1. Script the production table using Script Table as Create
2. Drop the existing development table
3. Use the Script (see 1. above) to recreate the development table (substituting the proper database name)
4. Insert all records from the production table into the development table (insert into table development_table select * from production_table)
Does this create an exact duplicate including the proper sequencing of identity fields? Meaning if there are deleted records in the production database table, their identity fields would be numbered something like 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 11, etc. I want to make sure that the identity fields are numbered exactly the same in the development table.
If not, how do I do that?
thanks in advance!
Copy Table From .SDF To .SDF Database
May 24, 2007Hi there,
this maybe a simple question but is it possible to copy a table from one sqlmobile database to another?
here is what i would like to be able to do although i am aware that it is not necessarily the most efficient way
- for various reasons this is how i have to do it:
A copy of a sqlmobile2005 database will sit on an SD Card on a pocket pc - DatabaseA.
A second database - DatabaseB - will then be sent as an attachment via email and pasted onto the sdcard
The information in DatabaseB is an update for DatabaseA.
At least 2 of the tables in DatabaseA need emptying and refilling with the data from matching tables in DatabaseB.
I'm guessing the easy way to to this would be a parameterized insert statement but unfortunately these tables contain approx. 900 records and i fear this would be a long process.
Any helpwith this matter would be much appreciated
Darren.

Copy Table From ODBC To SQL Database

Copy Table In A Database Without Transaction Logging.
Mar 18, 2008Hi y'all, I am doing some searching in the archived threads, but I have a need to copy a table in a database to a new table in the same database, but the new table will be just a table with test data. There are several million rows in the table and I want to do the copy without logging the new inserts in the transaction log.
Is there an easy way to do this? I found this in my search efforts so far, but am just wondering if there is an easier/better way to accomplish what I want to do.
BTW, I normally wouldn't care, but the boss is complaining that it is taking too long to do the copy for a different team, so asked if I knew a way to copy data to a new table without logging. I don't, so here I am ;)
Here is what I found so far:Following 3 things need to be done
1) create table as not logged initially
2) set autocommit=off
3) and activate the not logged initially option
Now the inserts happen without the use of transaction logs

How Can I Copy The Content Of MS Access Table In Database SQL Using Visual Studio Basic
Sep 26, 2007Code Snippet
Hi there,
I'm struggeling for more than a week now with this problem, without a finding the solution.
I have two databases, MS Access and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Using a procedure in Visual Studio i would like to copy all the records from one table in MS Access into an existing table in SQL Server (the tables have the same name and the same layout)
I tried to prepare one Dataset to copy from Access into SQL Server but when i run the command 'DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella") nothing happens (not even an exeption has been raised), looking during debug, the DataSet seems filled though...
Please could anyone explain what's wrong and / or is there a more quicker way to copy data from a table to another?
Note i woul have as a final goal to get data from an AS400 database by ODBC, manage it, and put it on SQL Server for a 'data mining' scope (eliminating the use of MS Access, not suited for FE-BE).
the procedure goes like this;
' Create a connection to the MS Access Database
Dim connectionToAccess As New OleDbConnection(DBConnectionAccString)
strsql = "SELECT * FROM [TABELLA]"
connectionToAccess.Open()
Dim DaAccess As New OleDbDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToAccess)
Dim DsAccess As New DataSet("ACCESS")
DaAccess.FillSchema(DsAccess, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaAccess.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")
' Create a connection to the SQL Database
Dim connectionToSQL As New SqlConnection(DBConnectionSQLString)
connectionToSQL.Open()
Dim DaSQL As New SqlDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToSQL)
Dim DsSQL As New DataSet("SQL")
DaSQL.FillSchema(DsSQL, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaSQL.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")
DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")
Note I tried also the following, withou a result;
DsSQL = DsAccess.Copy
DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")
Please is there someone who could respond !!???

Copying Data From One Table To Another Table In Another Database
Jan 2, 2008I have "inherited" a project working on a SQL 2000 database. The project calculates commissions based on data from an invoice header table and an invoice details table. The goal is to extract data from the primary database tables, perform limited manipulations, and store the resultant data into a table in a different database for reference and reporting. I have the query complete that extracts and manipulates the data, but I am stuck in trying to add this data to the final storage/reporting table. I would also like to do error checking to be certain that a record is not "re-inserted" from the source data to the destination table. Thanks in advance, Barry
